Daming Taoist Medicine

Chapter 249 Chapter 249

Six years have passed in a blink of an eye.

During this period:
Zhu Qingshan took over the fief and worked hard to rule.Mountains were dug and roads were built, bridges were built to attract merchants, land was measured and distributed to the common people, most of the agricultural taxes were replaced with commercial taxes, and many exorbitant and miscellaneous taxes were avoided.Cultivate, select, and appoint many low-level people, encourage intermarriage between upper and lower levels, and restrain the family from centralizing power.It seems to have the appearance of a small imperial court, and it is very popular among the people. It is prosperous and flourishing.

After Wumu's defeat, domestic turmoil continued in Muchen, and the two princes tried all kinds of schemes and methods, making Muchen country in dire straits and people living in dire straits.Tana disappeared for four years and returned with her son, without mentioning the father of the child or her love affair.Seeing the suffering of the people and the stupidity of her brothers, she pretended to seek refuge with the second son, and planned a fight between the two kings. At the last moment, she killed the cruel and ruthless eldest prince, imprisoned the second prince, unified the grasslands, and restored the mountains and rivers.

Facts have proved that the rivers and lakes are never less exciting because of the absence of someone.It will only be because of the lack of someone and an extra miss.

On the outskirts of Yumenguan in Chuanzhou, there is a river named Guangming.

This river is shining with silver light and crystal clear. It was originally named Chuanjiang. It is said that Lei Guangming and Feng Qingyang traveled here.

A single figure in the river drifts with the current.

He has black and white hair, a mask on his face, a slender figure, and a farmhouse outfit with long trousers and a broken shirt, but he has a refined temperament.

Tianshui inverted, it turned out to be the reflection of the man standing on the bridge.

He looked down at the river, his eyes were gloomy and confused, as if he was in deep thought, he raised his head and turned to Yumen Pass after a long time, looking at the Taoist temple of Qingyang in the sky, with a thoughtful expression.

Suddenly hearing the cry for help, the mask looked for the reputation, and saw a woman waving her arms in the river, bouncing up and down.

The masked man leaped lightly and dived into the water. His movements were done in one go, light and agile, without waves and splashes.

The man was obviously good at holding his breath, he didn't need to float his head to catch his breath, but he saw the woman who fell into the water approaching the shore quickly, and he was carried to the shore by the man.

A mask was drifting in the river, presumably it was washed away by the man while diving.

The woman looked at the man holding her in a daze, and couldn't help but praise in her heart: "What a beautiful man!"

The man put down the woman, saw her dull eyes, and touched his face, only then realized that the mask was missing, hurriedly took out a mask from his arms, and put it on obediently.

The woman said: "The little girl's name is Xiao Nan, thank you for saving my life, young master."

The man nodded and said nothing.

Xiao Nan asked: "Young Master En is so good-looking, why don't you show your true colors?"

The man said: "In many cases, wearing a mask is not to hide your ugliness, but because you don't want to face too many things, and you are afraid of seeing too many people."

Xiao Nan smiled brightly, "What Engong said is so meaningful, and his voice is so magnetic."

The man stopped talking, turned around and left.

Xiao Nan followed closely behind and asked, "What's the name of your benefactor?"

The man turned a deaf ear and did not answer.

Xiao Nan said with a smile: "Since En Gong doesn't want to show his true face, he probably wouldn't tell me his name. Even if he told me my name, I'm afraid it wouldn't be true."

The man nodded in approval.

Xiao Nan said: "Grandfather! Don't go so fast!"

The man didn't answer, but his feet were full of speed.

Xiao Nan: "I'm a weak woman, I can't walk fast, and with my wet long skirt and robe, even if I run, I may not be able to keep up with your steps."

Man: "Otherwise..."

Xiao Nan: "In the wilderness, lonely men and widows, drying clothes by campfire, it has a special charm."

Man: "Forget it then, I will go to the city to buy you a set of clothes, and then go to the inn to open a room for you."

Xiao Nan said submissively, "I'll just listen to benefactor's arrangement."

After a moment of silence, Xiao Nan finally couldn't bear her temper and asked, "Benefactor Guigeng?"

The man paused on his feet, pondered for a long time, shook his head and smiled wryly, "I don't know!"

Xiao Nan was very interested, "How come you don't know your age?"

The man said: "I was an orphan before the age of four, and my age was false. Later, I was kidnapped and taken away and imprisoned in a dark cave. I don't know how long it has passed, so I really don't know how old I am." Speaking of this, he suddenly asked Said: "By the way, how long has it been since the battle of Lanling City?"

Xiao Nan said: "It's been more than five years, and it will be six years soon."

The man smiled wryly, "It turns out that I have been imprisoned for six years."

Xiao Nan: "Who locked you up?"

The man calmly said: "The owner of Poison Valley, the mummy."

Xiao Nan turned pale with shock, covered her mouth to express her fear, but her eyes were full of curiosity, gossiping: "Why did he lock you up?"

The man said: "He is a psychopath, normal people can guess his thoughts."

Xiao Nan: "I heard that the owner of Poison Valley is a murderous person, and anyone who falls into his hands will never be spared, but why doesn't he kill you?"

The man shook his head, unable to answer, and suddenly said seriously: "Suppose there is a heinous old villain and a good person with extraordinary talents. The good person kills many disciples of the bad person. The bad person does not kill the good person, but locks the good person up. He used the best elixir, asked him to practice Tianji's kung fu, and even captured a few female disciples to combine with him, what do you think this villain is up to?"

Xiao Nan: "How could such a thing happen?"

Man: "I mean hypothetically, assuming such a thing happens, what do you think the villain is planning?"

Xiao Nan: "First, the biggest conspiracy is to tarnish the good man's reputation, make him condemned by thousands of people, and leave him with a bad reputation for thousands of years, so that the good man will be abandoned by the world, so that he will have to associate with the bad man."

The man clapped his fists and shouted, "Yes, yes, that's the truth."

Xiao Nan continued: "Secondly, this villain may be old and infirm, infertile, and he likes his talent and wants to vaccinate his children."

Man: "One word awakens the dreamer, why didn't I think of this."

Xiao Nan: "Thirdly, the bad guys want to raise the offspring of the good guys, teach them skills, and then tell them that the good guys are their enemies, so that there will be a scene of father and son fighting each other. No matter who wins or loses, it will be fun."

The man was horrified, "This plan is so vicious."

Xiao Nan looked at the man in surprise, and asked, "Could it be that you are that good man?"

The man's eyes wandered, and he said haha: "How is it possible?"

Xiao Nan: "That's right. With your looks, unless the villain is a woman, doing such a troublesome thing will come back in vain."

The man giggled and changed the subject, "How is Qingyang Taoist Temple?"

Xiao Nan: "The Taoist temple was built seven years ago, and it has been collecting donations for expansion. There are donations every year. Now it is majestic and magnificent, and it is very beautiful. But... the vicinity of the Taoist temple is not very good."

Man: "How?"

Xiaonan: "When there are many people, there will be a market. If there is a market, there will be business. If there is business, there will be comparison enjoyment. If there is enjoyment, there will be extravagance. If there is extravagance, there will be degeneration. The current Yumen Pass has long since lost its original positive attitude. Momentum, the gambling houses are clustered, the red buildings are clustered together, and there is a kind of dandyism of luxury and money."

The man said with a pun: "It's really prosperous."

Xiao Nan patted the man's back, smiled prettily and said, "It's really interesting what your benefactor said."

Man: "Just don't be interested in what I mean."

Xiao Nan: "I hate it!" Seeing the tooth marks and wrist marks on the man's arm suddenly, he joked: "The marks on Engong's wrist can be said to be caused by being tied for too long, but the tooth marks were bitten by that little lady again." Yes? Biting so hard, could it be that the benefactor is sorry for the little lady?"

The man said leisurely: "It was bitten by my daughter-in-law before she died."

Xiao Nan said softly, "I'm sorry!"

Man: "It's okay! It's been six years, and my heart doesn't hurt so much anymore."

Xiao Nan whispered: "It turns out that benefactor is already married."

The man said sadly: "I'm married, and there's more than one. I'm just a scumbag who has played with many women. The one who loves me waits for me, and the one I love is forever separated. If there is a lone star in this world, then it must be I have no doubt about it. Afraid of love, afraid of love."

Seeing the sad look on the man's face, Xiao Nan comforted him, "Don't say anything..." With an idea, she changed the subject and said, "What happened to benefactor's clothes?"

The man said: "It's internal strength."

Xiao Nan's eyes widened, and she asked, "How is your benefactor?"

Man: "It should be okay! I haven't fought with anyone for too long, and I don't know how it is."

Xiao Nan: "First-class, or premium?"

Man: "Why don't you ask me if I'm super?"

Xiao Nan: "There are only a few super masters in this world, and they are all written on the Jianghu Tianbang. If you are, there will definitely be records. After all, your black and white hair is so obvious, don't you think so? So you Impossible to be a super expert."

The man nodded and said: "The analysis makes sense. Then tell me, who are the super masters on the current list?"

Xiao Nan solemnly said: "Zhu En, the leader of the Beggar Gang, the owner of the Poison Valley, and the owner of the Medicine Valley, these are veteran experts. The leader of the Beggar Gang has not seen him for many years. There are rumors that he has gone west. Living in a secluded Medicine Valley, the owner of the Poison Valley, Shenlong, never sees the beginning and the end, and his name has always been uncertain. A few years ago, there was a sudden rumor that his name was called Mummy, and the mummy was him, so he decided on his name."

The man asked: "Where are the new masters?"
