Chapter 1876: A Letter from Longhu Mountain

A cry of a crane came from the sky, echoing throughout the valley and piercing the quiet night.

Everyone instinctively looked up at the sky.

They saw a huge white shadow flying towards them from the horizon in the night sky, like a meteor streaking across the sky.

I could vaguely see someone riding on the white crane!

Riding a crane in the fairy mountain?

Du Ruhui, the thirty wolf soldiers, the six little lucky ones of the Tang Sect, and all the disciples of Qingcheng were stunned!

They had only heard of immortals riding cranes in legends, but they didn't expect to see it in Qingcheng Mountain tonight!

Feng Jiuxiao frowned, his eyes flickered, and he thought: Could it be a crane from Longhu Mountain? If it's not a crane from Longhu Mountain, then whose family could it be?

In the battle of Demon City, the four great immortals under the Heavenly Master of Longhu Mountain all sacrificed their lives, and their mounts, the immortal birds, also died. Longhu Mountain paid a heavy price to eradicate the Demon Cult!

Who could this person be now?

The white crane circled in the sky for a few times, and then slowly slid down towards Feng Jiuxiao and the others on the shore of Yuecheng Lake.

The white crane was two meters tall, and stood quietly after retracting its feathers, like a sculpture. Its white feathers were like white marble, emitting a crystal white light under the moonlight. Its thick legs were black and wrinkled like old pine bark, and its claws inserted into the ground looked like they were made of iron, extremely hard!

Feng Jiuxiao confirmed that this was indeed the immortal bird from Mount Longhu! With its tall body, upright posture, and proud eyes, who else could it be but the immortal bird from Mount Longhu?

A person slid down from the white crane. It turned out to be a young man in a Taoist robe! He had a long sword on his back and a whisk in his hand. After he stood still, his eyes were fixed on Feng Jiuxiao!

Feng Jiuxiao's eyes flickered: "Ming Yue?"

This Taoist priest is Mingyue, one of the two great Taoist children in Longhu Mountain! The other one is Qingfeng!

It seems that the former Taoist boy has now officially become a Taoist monk!

Mingyue quickly walked a few steps to Feng Jiuxiao, bowed and said: "Mingyue from Longhu Mountain greets you, young master!" Zhang Tianshi gave Feng Jiuxiao the "Xuanwu Divine Art" internal energy method and the "Shrinking the Earth into an Inch" light skill secret, which showed the relationship between master and disciple. As the grand-disciple of Zhang Tianshi, Mingyue felt like she was seeing her uncle when she saw Feng Jiuxiao, so she should show her great respect!

But how could Feng Jiuxiao accept such a great gift? He flicked his sleeves and lifted Mingyue up with an invisible force. "Why are you here?"

Mingyue said, "I am here on the orders of the Heavenly Master to deliver a letter to you, young master!" Then she took out a letter from her bosom!

The six little lucky ones of the Tang Clan looked at each other in bewilderment!

The grandeur of Mount Longhu is awesome!

Every letter was delivered by a crane, and it arrived on the same day! The speed and accuracy of its delivery were unmatched in the world!

Feng Jiuxiao took the letter and pulled it out. There were only a few words on it: "Now I know that Liu Mie Zhou has ascended the throne of the Northern Han Dynasty. The Emperor of Song has also led the army to the north to fight against the Pseudo-Han in recent days. The war is fierce and dangerous. The war has started again. I heard that Jiuxiao has a close relationship with Mie Zhou. I hope to persuade him to submit to the Song Dynasty. From then on, the world will be unified and people will not suffer. There is no greater good than this!"

Feng Jiuxiao thought for a moment, then looked up and said, "Master Mingyue."

Mingyue bowed quickly and said, "Sir, please speak."

Feng Jiuxiao said: "I will write a letter to Liu Miezhou and urge him to consider the innocent people more."

Mingyue was startled, "Sir, are you... just trying to persuade me?"

Feng Jiuxiao did not answer directly but asked: "Why did the Heavenly Master ask you to deliver a letter to me? He would not easily ask about worldly matters. Could it be that someone has alarmed the Heavenly Master?"

Mingyue nodded and said, "Yes, the court sent an imperial envoy to Longhu Mountain to ask for an audience with the Heavenly Master. The Heavenly Master didn't want to see him at first, but the people who came were Taifu Gaoli, the eldest son of Zhenhai Marquis Qi, and Eunuch Wei of the Imperial City!"

Zeng Yong and others were shocked!

These people are obviously Feng Jiuxiao’s close friends. Zhao Guangyi really knows how to manipulate people’s hearts!

All three of them were important officials of the Song Dynasty, so naturally they did not dare to disobey the order!

Feng Jiuxiao felt the same way, and thought: Zhao Guangyi must have also heard the information that Liu Miezhou controlled the Northern Han. He knew the relationship between Liu Miezhou and me, so he used me to force Liu Miezhou to surrender, thus defeating the enemy without fighting!

But why didn't he just send someone to find me?

Could it be that he already knew that the matter of occupying Yu Nu was exposed, and he felt guilty and dared not face himself? But with his heroic temperament, how could he feel ashamed because of a woman's matter? I guess he thought that I was too close to Liu Miezhou and that his determination to persuade Liu Miezhou to surrender was not strong enough, so he wanted to use the power of outsiders to put pressure on me!

Considering that the face of Master Gao, Wei Qiansui, and Master Qi might not be enough, he simply forced Master Zhang to come forward! In his eyes, Master Zhang's face should be greater than the sky, and I must give it!

Feng Jiuxiao said to Mingyue, "Go back and tell the Heavenly Master that it was me who said that Liu Miezhou became the emperor of Northern Han because he inherited the foundation of his Liu family. It is a private matter of his Liu family and I cannot interfere. I can only advise him to be diligent in government, love the people, take good care of himself, accept advice, and be a good emperor."

Mingyue was stunned, "Then... the war is not... I will reply to the Heavenly Master like this?"

Feng Jiuxiao said: "Yes."

Mingyue was still confused. Of course he knew his mission. That was to make Feng Jiuxiao promise that Zeng Yong would give up resistance and let Northern Han return to the Central Plains. He didn't expect Feng Jiuxiao to support Liu in destroying Zhou in disguise, which seemed inconsistent with justice.

Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said, "Okay, don't think too much. You must be tired after running thousands of miles. Sit down and have a good drink."

"I...can't drink!" Mingyue was embarrassed, "Tianshi Mansion has rules..."

"It's alright, then try the fish from Yuecheng Lake on Mount Qingcheng. Don't worry too much. If Zhang Tianshi wanted something from me, he wouldn't have sent you here!"

"Really?"

"Of course it's true! He just had to make a gesture out of consideration for his feelings. As for my attitude, he won't mind. Believe me, it's okay. Let me introduce you, this is Taoist Master Yu Qingzi, the head of the Qingcheng Sect!"

"Oh, so the Taoist priest is the head of Qingcheng Sect. I have heard of you for a long time! I, Longhushan Mingyue, have met Taoist priest Yuqingzi!"

"So it's Taoist Priest Mingyue. I've heard a lot about you. I'm Yuqingzi! I wonder how Tianshi Zhang is doing these days?"

"Oh, the Heavenly Master is doing well recently. He will practice in seclusion after I return."

"I heard that the Heavenly Master has already entered the Heavenly Man Realm and is only one step away from the Ascension Realm?"

“Haha, I’m not sure about that. But he has already broken through to the Heavenly Man Realm a long time ago!”

"I really admire you so much! I have no hope in this life!"

“Master, don’t give up on yourself. After all, he only reached the Heavenly Man Realm at the age of eighty, and you are only thirty years old this year…”

Yu Qingzi laughed loudly: "What? Only thirty? I'm already fifty-one!"

Mingyue was startled: "The Taoist master has a way to keep his youthful appearance. The Taoism he practices must be magical and he will achieve great success in the future!"

Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for a few days, so I'm impressed! You've come up with a secret to keep your youthful appearance. Have you become more sweet?"

Mingyue couldn't help but blush!

Feng Jiuxiao smiled and asked, "Where's Qingfeng?"

Mingyue hurriedly said, "Qingfeng is also in seclusion! His martial arts have improved by leaps and bounds recently, and the Heavenly Master is very happy and has specially taught him several internal skills."

Feng Jiuxiao showed a gratified look: "Great! There are successors! You have to work hard too! The future of Longhu Mountain lies in your generation!"

Mingyue's expression suddenly became serious: "Yes!"

Feng Jiuxiao said: "Try this fish first. It is a specialty of Qingcheng Mountain. You are lucky to come today. You would never have the chance to eat it if it were any other day!"

Yu Qingzi smiled and said, "This is true! Taoist Mingyue is so lucky! This is the first time in my life that I have a hundred fish banquet, and Taoist Mingyue happened to be there. Isn't that a coincidence?"

Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said, "Of course it's a coincidence! He flew here from thousands of miles away just by smelling the scent! Here, this pair of chopsticks has never been touched. Use this first, and I'll introduce you to a new friend later."

Zeng Yong was about to say hello at this time, but when he saw Mingyue was about to pick up a piece of fish, he held back.

Feng Jiuxiao kept staring at Mingyue, fearing that Mingyue would be too reserved and not be able to eat the fish. He waited until Mingyue had tasted five kinds of fish before he said, "Well, that's about it. We can introduce them while we eat. I'll start with this table. This is Zeng Yong, the owner of Huizhou Tianying Fort."

Mingyue quickly stood up and saluted: "Greetings, Lord Zeng!"

Zeng Yong also stood up quickly: "Master, please don't be polite! Longhu Mountain is the leader of Taoism in the world and the leader of the martial arts world. Don't be polite! Master Zhang is a scholar and a role model for our generation to learn from!"

Mingyue was so annoyed by Zeng Yong that she could only nod her head blankly.

At this time, several figures appeared in the distance.

Yu Qingzi immediately smiled, "Master, those people you were talking about are back!"

The people who came were none other than the Four Beauties of Qingcheng: Pine, Cypress, Tong and Pu.

After meeting the sect leader, the four great disciples immediately bowed to Feng Jiuxiao!

The four of them said in unison: "Greetings, sir!"

Feng Jiuxiao was dressed in white like snow, and he looked elegant and graceful. Anyone who saw him would only call him "Young Master"! Only Yu Qingzi deliberately called him "Young Hero" a few times out of respect when they first met!

But later he also felt that it was a bit awkward to call him young hero. First, Feng Jiuxiao's appearance did not look like a "hero" at all. Second, Feng Jiuxiao himself did not seem to like others calling him a "hero". Later, after chatting with Zeng Yong, he found out why Feng Jiuxiao was tired of the word "hero". It was because there were too many people called "heroes" in the world now. Some people called them heroes all the time, and heroes were everywhere like dogs!

Some people even commit murder and robbery and yet they call themselves heroes!

The hero is no longer a hero!

It is not easy to reverse this trend!

But the road is made step by step, Feng Jiuxiao is not in a hurry!

"Long time no see!" Feng Jiuxiao said with a smile.

Zi Pu smiled and said, "Yes, sir."

"You guys went down the mountain to train again this time?"

"Yes!"

"What's the catch?"

"We have gained a lot! In the past, if we wanted to intervene when we found something unfair, we would face a lot of resistance!"

"Oh? Resistance?"

"We are referring to the territory of Dashu. In the past, when we saw someone doing evil, we naturally intervened to stop it. However, some people did not take us seriously at all. They were either backed by the Demon Sect or the Tiandu Sect. Once they fell out, the masters of these two sects would counterattack! After all, we in Qingcheng are accumulating strength, so for the sake of the overall situation, we dare not easily fall out. We can only do our best..."

Qiu Tong said with a look of grief and indignation: "We felt so helpless at that time!"

Han Bo also felt the same way: "Yes! Now that the Demon Sect and Tiandu Sect are all gone, those small sects have become more restrained without support. Only some vicious lone thieves think their chance has come and have become even more rampant. But after all, they are just individual gangs, so the overall threat they pose is not as great as those gangs. As long as we put in some effort, we can catch them."

Wen Song said: "We have gained a lot this time. We have eliminated the bullies who just showed up in Wenchuan!"

Feng Jiuxiao said: "Very good! You came at the right time. I am introducing you to everyone. This is Taoist Mingyue from Mount Longhu!" The Four Beauties of Qingcheng and Mingyue immediately saluted each other!

Regardless of whether they had met before, Feng Jiuxiao reintroduced them one by one, including La Jiao, Chang Zijin, Big Wolf, Er Ni and Yuan Zishan, as well as the Six Little Fortunes of the Tang Clan and Pang Shiwu and Du Ruhui who were playing finger-guessing games over there.

Yuan Zishan suddenly asked, "The Wenchuan you are talking about is the location of Wangyou Valley?"

Han Bai said: "Yes, Miss Yuan."

Yuan Zishan asked: "How far is it from here?"

Han Bai said: "Six hundred miles."

Yuan Zishan was startled. "Six hundred miles is not far, but it is not close either." Feng Jiuxiao asked, "You want to go to Wangyou Valley?"

Yuan Zishan said: "I want to."

Feng Jiuxiao said: "Then go."

"Six hundred miles isn't close."

"In fact, we just happened to be passing by, and it's not a long detour."

"Really?"

"Really! All the way north, you have to go through Wenchuan."

Han Bai asked, "Where are you planning to go, sir?"

Feng Jiuxiao said: "Go to Qinghai Lake."

Han Bai was startled. "Going to Qinghai Lake?"

Feng Jiuxiao asked: "What's wrong?"

Han Bai said: "We have encountered many martial arts masters gathering northwards along the way, and we vaguely heard that some groups seemed to be inquiring about Qinghai Lake!"

Big Wolf and Zeng Yong looked at each other, thinking: It seems that there is no impenetrable wall, Qinghai Lake Haixin Mountain will become a gathering place for heroes again. The two seemed to have seen the scene of swords and blood!

Feng Jiuxiao said: "Oh! There are quite a few people going there?"

Han Bai said: "I don't know how many people are heading there, but I am sure there are three or four groups."

Tang Huan, one of the Tang Clan's Six Little Fortunes, suddenly asked, "Excuse me, Taoist Han Bai, since Wangyou Valley is in Wenchuan, your sect went to Wenchuan to hunt down the bully. Wouldn't the people of Wangyou Valley think that your sect has crossed the line?"

Han Bai said, "No! Wangyou Valley has always been a peaceful place and doesn't care about the outside world. Of course, they don't allow people outside the valley to interfere in the valley's affairs."

Feng Jiuxiao said: "I heard that Wangyou Valley is also called Wuyou Valley. Is it Wangyou or Wuyou?"

Han Bai said: "I think it should be Wangyou!"

Wen Song said, "No way, there seems to be someone called Wuyougu!"

Feng Jiuxiao immediately smiled and said, "Okay, I understand." He spoke in time to prevent a possible argument between the two. He glanced at Yuan Zishan and said, "Then shall we set off tomorrow?"

Yu Qingzi immediately said anxiously: "Hey, Miss Yuan, we have already agreed that I will accompany you to Laojun Pavilion tomorrow. You can't leave in a hurry tomorrow. One more day is not enough!"

The Four Beauties of Qingcheng were also a little anxious.

Wen Song said: "Master, you left as soon as we came back. Are you hiding from us?"

Han Bai pretended to be dissatisfied: "That's right, we heard that the young master came to Qingcheng, so we rushed back overnight. Now he left as soon as we met. Does he despise us?"

Yuan Zishan suddenly said: "I'm not leaving tomorrow!"

Zi Pu and Qiu Tong shut up immediately.

Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said, "I'll listen to you."

Yuan Zishan pretended to snort coldly: "If we leave tomorrow, we will offend everyone. I can't afford to offend them."

Chang Zijin smiled and said, "Yes, sir, if you leave, not only will Taoist Master Yuqingzi and the Four Beauties of Qingcheng be unhappy, but the Six Little Fortunes of the Tang Sect will also curse you in their hearts!

Feng Jiuxiao laughed and asked, "Why?"

Chang Zijin said, "They finally got a chance to benefit from you, and they ate, drank and had fun together, but now you're gone. What do you want them to do? Won't they curse you in their hearts?"

Tang Huan, Tang Shan and others immediately said, "Don't dare, don't dare!" They didn't expect that this Miss Chang was so bold and dared to say anything, which made them blush and feel embarrassed.

Yu Qingzi deliberately put on a stern face and said, "Miss Chang, there is nothing wrong with what you said. If your Master Feng leaves tomorrow, I will immediately close the mountain gate, expel all the guests, and not see any outsiders!"

Tang Huan said with a smile: "Master, if you leave, we will be driven down the mountain tomorrow. If this gets out, we will find a piece of tofu to kill ourselves!"

Feng Jiuxiao smiled and said, "Then let's go to Laojun Pavilion tomorrow!"

At this time, three people stood on the top of the Golden Spear Peak of Longhu Mountain. All the soldiers of the Song Dynasty and the Wude soldiers of the Imperial City were led down the mountain by them.

Grand Tutor Gao Li said, "There were many spies along the way, and we three didn't communicate well. Now there are no outsiders here. My Lord Wei, tell me the truth, why did the emperor go to so much trouble to get us to Mount Longhu? Can't he just write a letter to Jiuxiao directly?"

Wei Qiansui looked into the distance with a deep gaze and sighed: "Some things are hard to say."

Gao Li frowned, "Why is it hard to say? I heard that Liu Miezhou seems to be Jiuxiao's indentured slave. Life and death are just a thought away. Is there something unspeakable here?"

The eldest son of Qi beside him suddenly said, "Grandmaster, since Liu Miezhou is Jiuxiao's indenture slave, then tell me, without Jiuxiao's tacit consent, could Liu Miezhou have gone to Northern Han?"

Gao Li's pupils suddenly contracted, a little surprised: "You mean... Liu Miezhou went to Northern Han to seize the throne with Feng Jiuxiao's tacit approval? Then... isn't he rebelling?" How different is it from treason to condone the Qi slaves to rise up and be enemies of the Song Dynasty?

Wei Qiansui said meaningfully: "Grandmaster, do you know why Liu Miezhou wanted to go to Northern Han to grab the throne of the emperor?"

Gao Li was a little puzzled: "Is there any hidden story here?"

Prince Wei looked at Master Qi.

Young Master Qi said self-deprecatingly, "My Lord Wei will never be a bad guy! If you don't tell me, I will! I'm not afraid! Master, have you heard that the current emperor brought back three stunning women from Western Shu?"

Gao Li frowned, trying to recall, and then said: "I vaguely heard some rumors."

"Then do you know who these three women are?"

"do not know."

"Wei Qiansui knows."

Wei Qiansui looked helpless, "My Lord, can't you just not take me with you?"

Young Master Qi said with a smile: "The three of us are on the same boat, and no one can escape. It is not me who influences your future and fate, but Feng Jiuxiao! So the three of us must work together and not have our own thoughts. Don't you agree, my Lord?"

Gao Li stared at Wei Qiansui, unable to hold his temper: "Who are those three women?"

Wei Qiansui said: "Hua Rui, Yu Nu, Yan Niang!"

Gao Li frowned and asked, "Who is Hua Rui? Who is Yu Nu? Why does that Yan Niang sound like a prostitute?"

Wei Qiansui chuckled, "Madam Huarui is the most beloved concubine of Emperor Meng Chang of Shu!"

"What? The emperor took someone else's concubine to Song Dynasty?"

"It is said that he wanted to give it to the late emperor!"

"..."

"Li Yanniang is also the concubine of Emperor Meng Chang of Shu!"

"..." Gao Li remained speechless.

"As for Yu Nu..."

"She is also the Shu Emperor's concubine?" Gao Li was a little impatient!

So outrageous!

How can you bring three concubines to the Song Dynasty?

"Wrong! Yu Nu is Liu Mie Zhou's wife!"

"What?" Gao Li was completely petrified!

At the Moon City Lake in Qingcheng Mountain, Erni asked Zeng Yong quietly, "Why did Miss Yuan want to go to Wangyou Valley?"

Zeng Yong smiled and said, "Even if she didn't mention it, I would have mentioned it! Wangyou Valley produced something very powerful."

Erni asked curiously, "What is it?"

"Anti-aging cream!"

"What is anti-aging cream?"

"Frozen age means freezing one's age. In other words, a person's age is like being frozen in ice, and their appearance remains forever..."

"You mean using this anti-aging cream can keep your youthful appearance forever?"

"I don't think it can really keep your youthful appearance forever, but it can definitely slow down aging! There's a saying in the martial arts world: one ounce of gold is worth one ounce of cream! If the anti-aging cream doesn't have such a big effect, why would it be so expensive?"

"One ounce of gold for one ounce of cream? It's really too expensive!"

"It's okay, we have money! I'll buy you ten kilograms when the time comes!"

"Ten pounds?"

"not enough?"

"Enough! Ten kilograms, that's a lot of silver, it's too expensive!"

Zeng Yong smiled and said, "Since you think it's too expensive, then don't go to Wangyou Valley."

Erni immediately said anxiously: "Hey, go, go, go!"

Looking at Erni's anxious look, Zeng Yong found her more and more adorable. He couldn't help but feel heroic and laughed heartily!
