Longevity begins with a proud smile

In the court of the Southern Song Dynasty, treacherous officials were in power, and political affairs were in chaos.

The Mongolian iron cavalry repeatedly invaded the Central Plains, and the lives were devastated.

In troubled times, heroes from all walks of life keep the word loyalty in mind, and always have the idea of ​​saving the country and the people.

It was a misty spring afternoon, and the southern sky was high and far away, and as far as the eye could see, it was blue and cloudless, and it was the most pleasant season in the Central Plains.

In Xiangfan, Hubei, a loess road stretched out straight until it reached a rather dense forest, and then it became curved and passed through the forest.

The sun shoots down, shines on the road, shines on the treetops, but does not shine into the forest.

In troubled times, there were no pedestrians on the road at first, but at this moment, dust heads suddenly rose in the distance, and five healthy horses came galloping like thunder.

In front of the woods, one of them reined in the horse suddenly, the horse stopped too quickly, Xi Yuyu let out a long hiss, and stood up, the rider on the horse clung to the horse's back, showing excellent riding skills.

The other four also reined in their horses together.

Immediately there were five Taoist priests, each carrying a long sword.

All of them are dressed in light blue Taoist attire, and those who know the goods can tell at a glance that these people are not only from the same family, but also have a lot of money.These robes are thick shirts, which are definitely not affordable for ordinary people.

One of the white-faced Taoist priests turned his saddle and looked around, looked sideways at his companion and said, "Master, this place is cool and quiet, I think we can rest here for a while.

Anyway, we were ordered to embarrass the warriors of the Southern Dynasty. There must be a lot of people going to Baizhangping to attend the meeting. Let's wait here, wait for work, and take care of whoever is ordered, wouldn't it be fun! "

After he finished speaking, without waiting for anyone to answer, he reined in the horse, and the horse walked slowly into the woods.Several people followed into the woods.

A long-bearded Taoist priest on the other horse snorted heavily, and said coldly: "Second Junior Brother has been focusing on women in recent years, and lost all his skills.

You see, after he has just walked such a distance, he wished he could find a bed and fall on it.

But when he speaks, his tone is as loud as that of the martial arts people in the Southern Dynasty. They are all scarecrows, and they can be cleaned up by you! "

The second junior brother chuckled, thrust the whip in his hand towards the saddle, turned over, and jumped off the horse with a "swish".He is strong and athletic, and he can be said to be one of the best players in a thousand.

A Taoist priest with a dark face, a big mouth, and a hawk-nosed nose also jumped off the horse, stretched out his hand and patted the horse's buttocks, and the horse ran to the side, and said with a smile: "Eldest brother is right, second brother will follow!" The group of Tantra practitioners practicing Huanxi Chan have learned a little out of order."

He laughed again, and said: "However, the martial arts of the Southern Dynasty are really not very good. We went north along the way, how many things have been cleaned up, and there is not a single good one!"

The white-faced Taoist said with a smile: "The third junior brother is right, if the master didn't want to show his face in front of the emperor for the fourth prince, the idiot would rush to this poor place.

My Mongolian iron cavalry is invincible, so what can Yun Wancheng do by gathering some martial arts figures?What a waste! "

The long-bearded Taoist known as the elder brother snorted coldly again, turned his eyes, and said suddenly: "Shut up!"

The other four followed his gaze and saw a man in sloppy clothes, leaning against a tree beside the forest road, squinting his eyes, as if he was asleep.

The black-faced Taoist couldn't help laughing, pointed at the poor man and said with a smile: "Brother, is there anything to be careful about such a poor man?"

The eldest brother looked at the poor man for a long while, then got off his horse, walked under a tree, closed his eyes and regained his composure.

At this time, a breeze came in from the gap in the forest. The black-faced Taoist priest opened his clothes and exposed his chest hair. He felt much refreshed when the wind blew. That's fine, if not, let's walk forward to see if there are any stores..."

Before he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly stopped. It turned out that the poor man sleeping under the tree had a big gourd tied around his waist, and there were ice stubbles on the gourd, as if it had been taken out of the ice not long ago.

As soon as the black-faced Taoist touched the gourd, he couldn't take it back. He couldn't help swallowing, and looked at the poor man carefully, but saw that he was born fair and beautiful, and thought: " What can a person of this age do?"

He bared his teeth, got up and walked in front of the poor man, and kicked his long outstretched foot.

The poor man suddenly opened his eyes, shooting out two rays of light like sharp blades.

The black-faced Taoist priest saw that the poor man was dazzling, and his heart trembled, but he was strong in martial arts, and he had a large number of people, so he didn't take it too seriously. He curled his lips at him, pointed to the gourd, and said, "This What's in it?"

The poor man actually closed his eyes again, as if he was going to sleep again, and only uttered one word.

"roll--"

The black-faced Taoist was angry, staring and shouting: "Your Daoist is happy today, so I speak politely to you, or I will trample on your egg yolk—"

Before he could finish his sentence, the long-bearded Taoist suddenly said, "Third brother, keep silent!" Then he said, "Fifth child, listen to me!"

A short and slender Taoist priest immediately fell to the ground, put his ear to the ground, listened for a long time, and suddenly his face was full of joy.Said: "Eldest brother, you still have profound skills. There are two horses more than an arrow away from here, so they came very quickly."

The long-bearded Taoist said: "Third brother, go and have a look."

The black-faced Taoist deliberately showed off his skills in front of the poor, he stepped down, moved like a rabbit, and swished to the forest entrance, put on the awning with his hands, and looked forward.

Sure enough, there was a puff of dust rising in front, and the sound of horseshoes could be heard faintly. He twisted his body violently, and ran back to the woods, with his arms outstretched, and with a low yell, he drove the horses that were grazing around to one side. go.He drew his long sword from his back again, stabbed it against the wind, and said with a grin: "Today we can make a fortune again."

At this time, the other four Taoists also jumped behind the tree.

At this time, everything was silent, and the sound of horseshoes stepping on the ground was extremely piercing in the silence, and it was getting closer.

I saw Lin Wai galloping into two horses, and immediately sat two big men, one tall and one short, and they just took a breath.

Hearing a shout: "Friends invited!"

Five Taoist priests jumped out and surrounded the two of them.

A tall man with a face as black as iron, a pair of tiger eyes looking around, clasped his hands and clasped his fists and said: "Feng Kui, the 'Ding God', this brother Xiao is known as 'No Wind Fist', who are the five priests? , any advice?"

The long-bearded Taoist strode up to the place a foot in front of the two horses, stroked his beard and said with a smile: "'Feng Kui' and 'Windless Fist' Xiao Fanghe, the Taoist master has heard a few words, if you know If you are interested, turn the horse's head and go back the same way, Daoist will spare your life."

The white-faced Taoist continued: "There is an old saying in the Central Plains that those who know the current affairs are called heroes. Don't you two understand what this means?"

Several other Taoists also laughed wildly.

"No Wind Fist" Xiao Fanghe, with a face like a full moon, squinted his eyes, and said coldly: "You speak so vilely, and you have no monastic demeanor. Many martial arts comrades who went to the League of Heroes along the way were killed by others. Could it be that it was all done by you?"

The black-faced Taoist sneered: "Obviously they are a bunch of idiots, but they want to talk about a group of heroes!

One by one, they call themselves heroes, fighting against one today and another tomorrow, hehe, this is called beating a tiger with bare buttocks! "

The skinny Taoist couldn't help jokingly said, "What?"

The black-faced Taoist smiled and said, "Shameless and lifeless!"

The white-faced Taoist smiled sinisterly: "Young brother is absolutely right."

The blue veins of Carrying the Tripod God and Wufeng Quanting were exposed, and they were so angry that their lungs exploded.

The poor man sitting under the tree opened his eyes slightly, and a cold light flashed across them, but he looked at the God of Carrying the Tripod and Wufeng Fist, and closed his eyes again.

It turned out that after the death of Mongolian Mengge Khan, Kublai Khan defeated his younger brother Ali Buge, seized the throne of Mongolian Khan, changed the name of the country to Dayuan, and lived in the north for several years. , moved from Bashu to Xiangfan.

The Song army in Xiangfan was in urgent need again and again. Not only did the imperial court massively increase its troops, but people from all walks of life also rushed to help.

Among them, Yun Wancheng, the head of the Shenying Sect and the "King of Eagles with Sky Eyes", issued martial arts invitations to gather people from all walks of life to form a "League of Heroes" to form a rebel army to fight against the enemy.

The 'God Carrying the Tripod' Feng Kui and the 'No Wind Fist' Xiao Fanghe are both well-known characters in the world, so they will go to the meeting.

And these five Taoists are all disciples of Master Keqing Huo under the command of Tuo Huan, the fourth prince of Yuan Emperor Kublai Khan.This time, they were ordered to disrupt this group of heroes. These five people injured many people in the world along the way, relying on their extraordinary martial arts and ruthless methods.

The long-bearded Taoist sternly shouted: "Stop talking nonsense, you won't leave until you leave!"

"God of Tripod Carrying" Feng Kui suddenly looked up to the sky and burst out laughing, took out an iron-backed golden knife from the side of the saddle, flew off the horse, the laughter stopped suddenly, and said coldly: "A group of bull-nosed people who have forgotten their ancestors are also worthy What kind of hero are you talking about here, today you must wait for the dead body to be on the spot, and vent your anger for my Central Plains martial arts."

As he spoke, he took a step forward, the saber flashed, and slashed obliquely at the long-bearded Taoist like lightning.

The long-bearded Taoist sneered, and with a bang, he pulled out the long sword on his back, and with a flick of his wrist, splendor spread all over the sky.

With the sound of "铛", the iron-backed golden knife in the hand of "God Carrying the Tripod" was actually cut off.His saber was made of refined steel, but it was cut off by someone's sword at this moment, so he couldn't help being stunned.

This long-bearded Taoist is strong in martial arts, the long sword in his hand is cold and dazzling, it is a rare sharp weapon in the world, and he struck fiercely, when the opponent was stunned, he swished the sword and pierced his throat.

The sword light was everywhere, and the cold air made the tripod god's hair stand on end, and it was too late to dodge.

Unexpectedly, at this unbearable moment, only the sound of piercing through the air was heard, a hidden weapon flew from several feet away, and hit the long sword in the hand of the long-bearded Taoist.

With a sound of "Zheng", the Taoist's long sword flew out of his hand and stuck in a tree trunk. The palm of his hand was full of blood, and the tiger's mouth was already cracked. Looking at the ground again, the hidden weapon was actually a piece of bark.

Everyone was shocked in their hearts, jumped a few steps, and looked at where the hidden weapon came from.

The poor man stretched his waist and stood up.

The long-bearded Taoist has been in the rivers and lakes for a long time, at this moment he frowned, and said in his heart: "I was wrong today, I didn't expect this poor man to have such high martial arts, I'm afraid the master is not as good as him! This is really bad luck, how can I meet such a difficult person?" Woolen cloth?"

The poor man strode towards a few people, and said as he walked: "You traitors, for the sake of Taoism, I wanted to let you go. How could you be so cruel and merciless, without the compassion of a monk, let you stay In this world, I don’t know how many people will suffer!”

The long-bearded Taoist was terrified, but he sighed: "Pindao and others are all under the command of the fourth prince of the Great Yuan Dynasty. They are ordered by others and have no choice but to do it. Forget it, since your Excellency intervenes, I will understand what happened, please stay a name."

The poor man said sharply, "You don't care who I am!"

The long-bearded Taoist said seriously: "The two countries are fighting each other with their own means. You don't even dare to keep your name, so why do you meddle in this matter?"

When the poor man heard this sentence, his face became dazed.
