Chapter 77 The Daoist Comes
Just when Sui Emperor Yang Guang and Su Li were making breakthroughs, a Taoist descended a mountain and came to Luoyang City.
"The general trend between heaven and earth has changed again, and it turned out to be the work of one person. Cihang Jingzhai said that he was a devil, and asked the old Taoist to get rid of this devil. Hey, this time I went down the mountain to repay her favor.
If you can still live in the future, then you will never care about these mundane things again."
Taoist E Guan Bodai has five long beards, a simple and elegant face, and wears a thin Taoist robe. However, when you look at him, he looks as tall as a mountain, and he has the air of an elegant hermit.
It's just that now this Taoist is frowning, mumbling, and sighing, but his feet are not slowing down at all.
Not long after, he walked many roads and his figure gradually disappeared.
…
Just when this Taoist came to Luoyang, the situation in the world changed slightly.
In the south, Wagang lost Li Mi and was defeated again by the new Sui army led by Li Jing. The entire Wagang was directly destroyed, and the Sui Dynasty completed its unification in the south.
In the north, Wang Shichong of Luoyang and Li Yuan of Taiyuan had not yet had time to rebel, so the forces in the north still nominally belonged to the Sui Dynasty.
However, Yang Guang felt a slight change and proposed to tour Taiyuan in the court hall.
Naturally, many ministers opposed this proposal, but Yang Guang remained unmoved.
His eyes looked very far, and he traveled around Taiyuan, firstly to see Li Yuan's true and false status, and secondly, he could not restrain the passion in his heart, and wanted to make further achievements in the border areas.
Today's Sui Dynasty has been unified on the surface, so the first enemy is the Eighteen Steppe tribes, and the old enemy Goguryeo must also be destroyed. If Goguryeo is not destroyed, the border areas of the Sui Dynasty will never have peace.
.
The frame starts and goes as fast as it wants. Yang Guang's imperial edict does not allow anyone to object.
"Emperor Master, I hope to completely wipe Goguryeo off the map in my lifetime. The land of Goguryeo is fertile and has millions of people. If I don't destroy it while I still have the strength, my descendants will take over the throne.
, by that time it was too big to lose. I have already conquered this old enemy of the Sui Dynasty three times. If the fourth time is not successful, the Sui Dynasty will also be destroyed."
In the sedan chair, Yang Guang and Su Li said.
His eyes were dark, looking at the land in front of him, showing some murderous intent.
"If there really is a fourth time, I can help your majesty kill Fu Cailin."
Su Li also looked into the distance and said.
At this time, Goguryeo was not the small country that people thought it was in later generations. It occupied a vast area, had fertile land, and had a large population.
Such northern forces would often become a terrorist threat to the Central Plains dynasty.
From the perspective of later generations, Goguryeo at this time was like the Liao Kingdom faced by the Northern Song Dynasty, the Jin Kingdom and Mongolia faced by the Southern Song Dynasty, and the Jianzhou Jurchen faced by the Ming Dynasty.
As long as they are given a little chance, the northern forces may sweep in, invade the Central Plains, and even take over the Central Plains.
Therefore, since the founding of the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty attacked once, and Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty also attacked three times.
According to the pace of history, after the Tang Dynasty replaced the Sui Dynasty, emperors such as Li Shimin also regarded Goguryeo as an old enemy and conquered it many times.
When Li Shimin left, Goguryeo was still there. Finally, in the hands of Li Zhi, Goguryeo was completely destroyed.
The four emperors of the Sui and Tang dynasties, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Guang, Li Shimin, and Li Zhi, all spared no effort and finally destroyed Goguryeo.
Therefore, the destruction of Goguryeo in the Great Sui Dynasty was an extremely correct national policy, and it was not something that could be explained by just resorting to military force.
"Master Imperial, what do you think the world will say about me in the future?"
Yang Guang thought about it and came up with this question.
"If your majesty succeeds, you will be a sage emperor. If your majesty fails, you will be the king of subjugation. People in the world will judge your majesty based on success or failure."
Su Li thought of the evaluations of later generations. Although he gradually looked at it dialectically, Yang Guang was undoubtedly a controversial emperor.
"Um."
Yang Guang nodded and fell into deep thought.
The motorcade traveled north, stopping and stopping. During a pause, Su Li felt a kind of energy.
He walked forward and soon saw a Taoist priest.
The first time Su Li saw the Taoist, he was attracted by his eyes.
They were a pair of eyes that were indifferent to the world. Looking at them, it was like seeing a world completely different from the mundane world.
Frank and sincere, even a little childlike.
Coupled with his quaint and slender face, he has an extraordinary charm.
"You are Ning Daoqi, the number one Taoist master today. I heard that you are now working as a dog for Buddhism?"
Su Li's words revealed his identity, he was unceremonious and a little tired.
Not long ago, the evil king Shi Zhixuan told him that Ning Daoqi would definitely come to kill him for Buddhism, but now, Ning Daoqi has really come.
"The old Taoist once owed Cihang Jingzhai a favor, so I had to come today."
Ning Daoqi let out a long sigh and moved forward.
His sleeves were bulging and arched, and a majestic and continuous energy surged out from his sleeves. Then he rushed forward, his whole body seemed to be fluttering but not fluttering. If it was slow, if it was slow, the contradictory feeling would be enough to make ordinary people.
I have a splitting headache, but I feel extremely unrestrained.
Eight flutters of Sanshou, the first flutter!
Su Li felt that the intertwined energies seemed to contain an inescapable force.
Facing this move, Su Li didn't even try to escape.
He didn't use the Sword of Autumn Water, he just raised his arm and punched out.
The powerful energy surges out, which is called one force that defeats all laws.
Ning Daoqi did not forcefully touch him. His whole face showed a child-like naturalness. He was like a bird flying in nature. As his figure moved, he naturally avoided Su Li's terror in an instant.
Qi Jin.
Birds are flying and spider webs are catching insects.
Ning Daoqi's next move was as mysterious as a spider web catching insects. The Qi between heaven and earth merged with his Qi, as if it turned into a spider web that wrapped around Su Li, and Su Li was in this spider web.
, unable to escape.
The next blow was still a pounce.
This pounce also seemed difficult to avoid.
"The world says that you are the number one master of the Taoist sect, and your unique skill is the Eight Strikes of Sanshou. When I heard this name before, I thought it was no good. It is not as good as the top ten martial arts. However, your Eight Strikes of Sanshou today really inspired me.
It's a pity that you have to stand up for Buddhism."
Su Li's voice sounded.
Sanshou Bapu, this name does not sound like a peerless martial arts at all.
But during Su Li's fight with Ning Daoqi, he truly felt that Ning Daoqi's Sanshou Bapu focused on a certain artistic conception.
In harmony with heaven and earth, the action is like heaven and earth.
Any random movement in the heaven and earth contains nature and is difficult to defend against.
Just like a secular person encountering a gentle breeze, how can he avoid it?
This is the force of nature.
This is an extremely profound state.
It is somewhat similar to Destiny Kendo.
It's no wonder that Ning Daoqi is called the number one master of Taoism.
But the opponent he faced today was Su Li.
A knife lightly passed by.
Ning Daoqi's body suddenly fell to the ground as naturally as a butterfly.
A thin line appeared on his throat.
He fell to the ground and never got up again.
This sword was the Qinglong Yanyue Sword. After Su Li used it, it passed by quickly.
Although Ning Daoqi was in nature, he didn't have time to escape.
Chapter completed!
