The Sword of Smiling and Proud

Chapter 123 Wudang Taoist
Guan Yuan plans to return to Huashan in a few days. While using the intelligence channels of the Huashan faction's peripheral forces to collect some news about natural materials and earthly treasures, he also tries to contact Shen Lian of Jinyiwei to see if there are any dignitaries who don't know the goods. , to sell this kind of treasure, but the probability of this is indeed extremely low.

In addition, Guan Yuan would also like to try if there is some kind of skill for cultivating gods. Maybe the divine mind is strong enough to drive Suiyu Taiji.But this is no longer the scope of martial arts training, Guan Yuan does not expect this.

After staying in Yuqingguan for more than half a month, Guan Yuan finally bid farewell to Zhenyangzi and the two little Taoist boys. Before leaving, he invited the three of them to Huashan when they had time, and it was also a visit to Guangning real person The old site of practice.

People who practice Taoism are mostly free and easy.After resigning in the early morning of that day, Guan Yuan went down the mountain at noon and rushed towards Huashan.

However, when passing through Jiujiang Port, there was an unexpected little thing.

Jiujiang Wharf has always been an important town on the West Road in the south of the Yangtze River. There is an endless stream of merchants who sell rice, tea, and porcelain, making it a lively scene.

When Guan Yuan boarded the ship at the pier, he happened to hear several vendors drinking tea and chatting.

"Have you heard that a few days ago, Prince Ning's Mansion in Nanchang held a banquet, and it was very lively."

"I heard something. I heard that King Ning has made friends from all walks of life. Those who can be invited to the banquet are all famous people."

"Not all of them. I heard that there are many people in the world. The Liu family of Mishangya in Jiujiang was invited, and they just came back yesterday."

"Prince Ning has such a noble status, how could he make friends with merchants like us? I'm afraid he doesn't even bother to look at it."

"What's so strange about this? Ning Wang is a virtuous corporal and has a wide range of friends. Even the living gods of Longhu Mountain, Zhang Tianshi sent someone to send a set of Taoism scriptures."

"Hiss, a fairy like Zhang Tianshi also gives gifts?"

"That's not to look at King Ning's face. King Ning has always been famous, and even gods have to go down to make friends."

"Hahahaha, yes, yes."

After Guan Yuan heard it, he was very puzzled. The Celestial Master obviously didn't want to get involved with King Ning, so why would he send the Taoist scriptures to show his favor?
Then Manager Liu still has the guts to go up the mountain to ask for an interview?Don't let Prince Ning's mansion boast and pretend to be mysterious.

Also, this King Ning is still famous in Jiangxi. It is really "the day when Duke Zhou was afraid of rumors, and Wang Mang was humble before usurping".

He had no time to think about it, so he had to go north by boat, and the reason was beyond his concern.Guanyuan passed through Hankou, passed through Xiangyang, and landed from Danjiangkou.

Danjiangkou is not far from Mount Hua, but closer to Wudang Mountain.

Just when Guan Yuan was about to dock, and there were still a few feet left, he saw two Taoist priests in Taoist attire standing on the pier, looking forward to it.They didn't wait for the ship to land, they used lightness kung fu, flew across the sky, and jumped onto the passenger ship.

"Forgive me, but Pindao has urgent matters to go north, so I would like to trouble the boatman to set off quickly."

"It's useless to be in a hurry, I have to send this guest officer to the shore." The boatman was an old man with a rather straightforward temper.

"Yo, I didn't see anyone on the boat wanting to disembark. I'm so poor. Let's do it at the convenience of the boatman." The two Taoist priests were easy to talk to.

Guan Yuan saw that although the two of them were in Taoist robes, they each carried long swords on their backs. They performed impressive lightness kung fu just now, and they can be regarded as the top players in the Jianghu. They should be the Taoist priests of the nearby Wudang sect.

When the two sides met each other, they both saw that the other party was a member of the rivers and lakes.

The two Taoist priests didn't want to be troublesome, so they made a bow, and stopped looking here.

Seeing this, Guan Yuan knew that the two were cautious, so he didn't say much, turned around and began to pack his luggage, ready to get off the boat.

At this moment, Yiqi went straight to the pier from a distance.He came to the shore in an instant, didn't slow down, and was about to rush into the water before pulling the reins violently, and the horse stood up.

"Are the two senior uncles, Cheng Gao and Cheng Yuan, still there?!" The man was dressed in hard attire, and he seemed to be in a hurry.

"We are here, what's the hurry?!" The two Taoist priests got out of the cabin and hurriedly answered.

"I just received a letter from Fei Ge on the mountain, and the situation has changed! The two senior brothers don't have to rush to the capital, just go directly to Xuanhua Mansion. Jin Yiwei's Junior Brother Shen will pick up the two senior uncles in Xuanhua. The sooner the better, the time will not wait." said the knight, and threw a package,
"Inside is the token of this time, please keep it well, Master Uncle."

"Okay, then we will go directly to Xuanhua."

Due to the urgency of the situation, both sides did not shy away from it, and Guan Yuan listened to them all.He didn't have much to do, and when he collected his luggage, he disembarked directly.

These two Taoist priests of the Wudang sect should be the masters that Gu An and Shen Bing said before, please go to protect the emperor.

Now that the Ming Dynasty and the Tatars were confronting each other in Xuanhua, and the emperor stayed on the front line, the two of them naturally didn't need to go to the capital, but went to Xuanhua Mansion for personal protection.Now that the war is about to break out and Mobei is covered with dark clouds, if the emperor has something bad or bad on the front line, the Jinyiwei who are not guards will be able to die and apologize, and the guest masters invited to go will not be able to escape.

The junior brother Shen mentioned just now should be Shen Lian. The Changbai Sword Sect is a branch of Wudang, so it is normal to call each other senior.

For Shen Lian to take over this matter, it seems that he has been reused recently.

It stands to reason that Shaolin should have also sent disciples to perform this guarding task. After all, Wudang Shaolin is a famous sect with a name in the imperial court, and they are closely related.Being able to leave a good impression by the emperor's side is better than how many fights in the Jianghu, and it is beneficial and not harmful to the development of the sect.

It's a pity that with the current position of the Five Sacred Sword Sect, they are not yet in their turn. If it was the Huashan Sect before the Qi Sword Contest, they might still be on the waiting list.

Now that there is no scene of Linghu Chong leading a group of evil spirits to besiege Shaolin Temple, I don't know if Shaolin Wudang still has the energy to intervene in the Wuyue and send it.

At least what is certain is that Shaolin definitely does not want a behemoth with the five mountains in one to appear next to him, and he will definitely block Zuo Lengchan's plan in every possible way.

In the original book, because of the evil spirits led by Linghu Chong and the threat of Ren Woxing's return to the rivers and lakes, and Hengshan Sanding, who was also from the Buddhist lineage, died in the Shaolin Temple, the multiple blows made Shaolin unable to take action.Master Fang Zheng could only secretly show his favor to Linghu Chong who had learned Dugu Nine Swords, and even took out the Yi Jin Jing to let him come forward to stop Zuo Lengchan.

Now Shaolin and Wudang haven't made a statement yet, but they will definitely use various means, Guan Yuan is secretly thinking, this will buy some time for the Huashan faction to grow.

But if Huashan rises and overwhelms the other four mountains, it may face the pressure of these two sects again.
