Chapter 48: In front of Sanfengtai
Jiang Yichen took a short rest at the post station and sent Wudang's information to Xiaoyue Temple in Jiangning County before walking up the mountain.
The post stations are all officially owned by the court. Juyuan’s daily information exchanges are very close. Too much information is sent through the post station, which inevitably makes the court’s official suspicious, and the security is even more questionable. Therefore, the transmission of important information in Juyuan is similar to the secret text. In order to avoid the transmission location being too concentrated, the general information will first be passed on to Jiangning County or other Daoyi Alliances near Jiangning County, and then convey it on behalf of them.
Regarding the situation here, Jiang Yichen chose to respect the meaning of Xuchen's true man, and only wrote the word "shattered jade" in the letter, and handed it over to the post office.
It is better to be broken than to be completely broken, and Wudang will definitely swear to die. The old man should be able to understand.
When you go to Wudang again, except for the scattered Wudang disciples on the road, there is no difference from the day you first arrive. On the surface, the storm of the Jinyiwei did not have much impact on Wudang.
Jiang Yichen came to the Sanqing Hall again, while the old man was still cleaning the bluestone ground.
Hearing the sound of footsteps approaching, he put down his broom and walked towards the people coming.
"Real person." Jiang Yichen bowed.
"I wonder, can the little fellow Taoist get what he wants?" Xu Chen asked straight to the point.
"It's Xiaoke who is not destined to be." Jiang Yichen shook his head, but he was not as dead as he was in a secret cave. On the contrary, there was no wave in the ancient well.
"It's so..." Jiang Yichen's answer surprised Xu Chen Zhenren. He was not surprised that Xuan Xiao chose not to teach the young man Chunyang Wuji Gong, because Xuan Xiao was like him and did not dare to take risks with the future of this young man. What he was surprised that with what Xuan Xiao saw and knew, he could not help Jiang Yichen untie the shackles of internal skills. In this way, does this mean that the young man's martial arts path has stopped here? What surprised him the most was that the young man in front of him could face the current situation of being unable to practice internal skills. He wanted to comfort him a few words, but Jiang Yichen spoke first.
"Thank you for your concern. This book cannot be forced. Xiaoke is here to thank the real person. The trip to Wudang has already made Xiaoke very rewarding. Xiaoke dare not ask for anything more. Secondly, he said goodbye to the real person, and he also handed over the things given by Brother Xuanxiao." As he said that, Jiang Yichen took out the cut-off sword tip from his belt.
True Man Xu Chen took the tip of the sword, his eyes stayed on it for a long time, and some wrinkles on his face trembled.
"Okay, good boy, I am worthy of being Yuan Zhen's favorite disciple." Zhenren Xu Chen's vision was blurred by tears...
After saying goodbye to True Man Xu Chen, Jiang Yichen got off Wudang Mountain, took the luggage from the post station, and rode a small brown horse to the Tai Chi Village. Before leaving, True Man Xu Chen also gave Jiang Yichen a sword containing the meaning of Tai Chi, and around his fingers.
Sanfengtai, as the name suggests, is a Taoist platform established by the founder of Wudang, Sanfeng Zhenren. The Taoist platform is built with bricks and stones. It is surrounded by mountains and overlooks the Taoist platform. It can be seen that the stone carved on the ground is a Tai Chi diagram with yin and yang fish-shaped circles and embrace each other. Originally, on the edge of the Taoist platform, looking south of the mountain, there was a bronze statue of Sanfeng Zhenren for pedestrians to worship. After Wudang retreated to the mountain gate, it was rumored that the bronze statue was stolen and disappeared.
Today, Sanfengtai is even less crowded. Although it is a necessary road to Wudang Mountain, moss and mud seals can be seen everywhere, all of which are ruined and ruined. Danxia Villa, Changsheng Village, etc., the Taotai and Danshan Villa established when Wudang flourished and built buildings in the past were abandoned in just over ten years because of Wudang's concept of escaping the world. What is even more ironic is that villa groups such as Danxia Villa and Changsheng Village, which were once famous for their sects and had begun to take shape, are now a chaotic place where bandits gather.
At that time, the sky was dark and the fallen leaves in autumn covered the ground. You could vaguely see some footprints falling between the roads, and the lonely platform seemed desolate.
Jiang Yichen was walking through Sanfengtai. Yesterday, he rushed to the mountain and did not look closely. Now he saw this scene. Combined with the hearsays and the situations seen and heard on Wudang Mountain, he was very puzzled about why Wudang fell into this place. According to Xuanxiao, Yuan Shen was an ambitious person. After competing for the position of leader, he should be committed to promoting the Wudang lintel, but why did he shrink so timidly and retreat in a corner and ignore the world? What are the unknown secrets in this?
Just as Jiang Yichen fell into deep thought, two figures ran towards him in front of him. After only a moment, three figures followed him reluctantly.
The two people in front should be the martial arts people, one gray and one white, one big and one small, and who can be distinguished when they are closer. Jiang Yichen has also seen both of them. The little Taoist boy in white Taoist robe is the little master Xuankong he met when he went up the mountain yesterday. The man in a gray Taoist robe and bloated figure is the Taoist priest who wanted to explain to Master Xu Chen in the hall. It is supposed to be Xiao Xuankong's master.
The three behind were not slow, and soon they got closer to the two.
The visitor is not good!
Jiang Yichen urged the little brown horse and accelerated to move forward, looking at the situation ahead as he approached.
The first person was an old man with a green robe, bald head and crane hair, long beard and hanging his chest. Although he was lame, he was the best light skills and the fastest among the five people with just one foot and one crutch.
Following her shape was a man in brown clothes holding a saber in one hand. The man was very tall but very thin, just like a bamboo pole, with a white cloth towel wrapped around his head and a beard on his chin.
At the end, a silly man with a brown vest casually with his chest and big belly exposed. The most eye-catching thing was that the two dark red axes in his hand were obviously covered with blood.
Seeing that Master Xuankong and his disciples ran away with their heads in their arms, they were hunted down by three people behind.
After the two sides were close to each other, their hearts were raised to their throats. After seeing someone coming ahead, they were really overjoyed, but they did not dare to slow down half a step and still ran forward frantically.
"Help! Fellow Taoist." Xuan Kong shouted at the top of his voice after seeing the person clearly.
"Kill together!" When the three of them saw the people in front of them, they did not retreat at all. The lame old man who was the first to speak out.
The lame old man stepped up his pace, pulled the distance closer, breathed a sigh of relief, raised the crutch, and rushed to the back of the bloated Taoist priest ahead.
The bloated Taoist priest seemed to have noticed the danger behind him and wanted to speed up his steps to escape, but he was panicked and mixed garlic under his feet, losing balance, and fell to the ground directly. The key points were completely exposed under the tip of the sharp crutch.
"Master, be careful!" At the critical moment, Jiang Yichen had no time to say anything, untied the same place as his bag, raised his body, pointed his back, flew forward, and first shot a hundred-step flying sword in the air to shoot out the bamboo sword, followed by a meteor-like move forward.
Bang!
The flying sword was extremely fierce, and the old lame man had to avoid the edge for a while and gave up his fatal blow to the bloated Taoist priest. At the same time, he used the crutch to block the power of the flying sword and spiraled in the air and landed lightly.
In just this moment, Jiang Yichen had come to the side of Master Xuankong and his disciples, protecting him, and the three people on the other side were also approaching, tense!
Although the bloated Taoist priest escaped, he was frightened and was filled with cold sweat, his hands and feet were weak and unable to stand.
"Master, you are saved, Master, get up, Master." Xuan Kong, who was standing beside him, was flushed with exhaustion. After struggling for a few times, he was still unable to pull the bloated Taoist priest up, so he had to let him kneel on the ground and breathe heavily.
The two sides were stalemate for only a moment, but the three lame old men moved first, "Kill!"
When something urgent happened, Jiang Yichen could not tolerate the martial arts of these three people. The two of them had no combat power to protect them. Jiang Yichen had to bite the bullet and jump into the other three people, trying to take them away from here a little, so that they could do it themselves without getting the old and the young.
Fortunately, the three of them were also very proud and ignored the two who had lost their combat power. Their goals were the same and they attacked Jiang Yichen.
A crutch, a sabre, and two giant axes rushed to slash at the same time. The speed of the attack made Jiang Yichen hurriedly respond. After the horizontal sword blocked the power of the crutch, the sword was already at the end of the powerful crossbow. The power of the two axes was heavy, and the sword body could not stop the blade.
Chapter completed!
