"I'm going to the War Hounds Mountain to drink wine, eat meat, and sleep with women. What are your plans?"
Xu Qi 'an smiled as he looked at Nangong Qianrou.
Nangong Qianrou knit his eyebrows and sneered, "It's just a Jianghu organization, what is there to socialize about."
Xu Qi 'an's smile disappeared as he softly said, "I am no longer a silver gong."
The ridicule and disdain in Nangong Qianrou's eyes slowly disappeared as if he had lost interest in talking.
After a long time, he lightly said, "I'm going to join in the fun."
Yi, this is not like second brother Nangong's style. Could it be that he is worried about me and is afraid that this is a trap set up by the Wulin League? Xu Qi 'an muttered in his heart.
… …
The War Hounds Mountain was steep and filled with clouds and mist.
This mountain was a famous paradise of the Jian Province. The forest was lush and the cranes cried out. Starting from the middle of the mountain, there were courtyards and pavilions scattered all the way to the top of the mountain.
"The War Hounds Mountain is a famous scenic spot of the Jian Province. The main peak is magnificent and the side peaks are beautiful. The main peak has a large waterfall that erupts during the rainy season. Even a sixth grade expert would not be able to withstand the wash of the waterfall."
"I heard that the Wulin League headquarters has eight thousand cavalry and they are the direct subordinates of that Warrior from the Central Plains."
Passing through the tall memorial arch at the foot of the mountain, Xu Qi 'an sighed with emotion, "Eight thousand cavalry is enough to sweep the Jian Province. Why has the court tolerated the existence of the Wulin League for so many years?"
Nangong Qianrou listened to his chatter. He was not interested in most of the topics, but when it came to the last topic, he could not help saying,
"Because that old man had an agreement with Emperor Gaozu."
"What agreement?" Xu Qi 'an's face was filled with curiosity.
"How would I know? Foster father did not say anything." Nangong Qianrou rolled his eyes.
Xu Qi 'an continued to chat, "The Jian Province's Wan Hua Lou beauties are all extremely charming. Are you interested in bringing one back as a concubine? I think Pavilion Master Xiao would be very happy."
Nangong Qianrou simply ignored him.
"If it was me, I would be able to bring Pavilion Master Xiao back to the capital and make her a concubine." Nangong Qianrou said.
"You don't seem to have a wife yet. If you are still the silver gong of the Yamen, you are indeed not suitable to marry a Jianghu woman. As for now, she is more than enough to be your legal wife," Nangong Qianrou said.
"No, no, no." Xu Qi 'an waved his hands.
"Not at all." Nan Nan Nan Nan said with a frown.
"The position of the main wife, I want to leave it to Prince Lin An or Prince Huai Qing." Xu Qi 'an said seriously.
"Scram!"
Nangong Qianrou said angrily.
Nangong Qianrou angrily said.
Very quickly, the two of them arrived at the main courtyard of the War Hounds Mountain. After being informed by the steward of the union, they were led into the guest hall. In the middle of the hall sat the dignified and dignified purple robed union master Cao Qingyang.
After a simple greeting, Cao Qingyang said, "Nangong Jinluo, please wait a moment. I have something to say to Xu Yinluo alone."
He stood up from his seat and silently walked forward, leaving the guest hall.
Xu Qi 'an followed behind him. They passed through the living area and walked towards the back of the mountain, gradually moving away from the buildings.
"Old ancestor wants to see you."
Cao Qingyang brought him into the jungle and walked along a small path as he said, "You can rest assured, old ancestor is not a bloodthirsty person. He has only heard of your deeds and is very interested."
Xu Qi 'an first reflected on himself. The jade that the Supervisor gave him was gone and Shen Shu was in a deep sleep. He was now an ordinary free prostitute. It shouldn't be a problem for him to meet the big boss.
The most important thing was that the other side was a Warrior, so even if there was a small problem, he would not be able to see it.
Actually, he had come to the War Hounds Mountain banquet with a bit of hope. Perhaps he could see the Wulin League's old ancestor.
Hei, I really am a person with great luck ….. He had a complex mood as he ridiculed himself.
After traveling through the forest for an incense stick of time, Cao Qingyang brought him to a giant mountain wall. As soon as they stepped out of the jungle, Xu Qi 'an's hairs stood up and his scalp turned numb.
He subconsciously looked at the source of the danger. On the cliff, there was a giant monster that had its head lowered. Its two water jar like scarlet eyes stared at the two of them.
This monster was completely black and had short, rough hair. It was shaped like a dog, but it had a human face.
Strange beast, War Hounds ….. War Hounds Mountain was named after it ….. It is a very strong strange beast, I can't beat it ….. All kinds of thoughts flashed through Xu Qi 'an's mind.
At this time, the War Hounds retracted its head and disappeared into the cliff.
"The War Hounds is the guardian beast of the Wulin League. It followed the old ancestor to conquer the world in the past, just like the Spiritual Dragon and the Human Emperor." Cao Qingyang said with a faint smile.
"You should know about the Spiritual Dragon. There is one in the capital that swallows purple gas and is a peak strange beast. However, it is only close to the people of the royal family. "
There was no need to explain it so clearly. That was just a lowly bootlicker ….. Xu Qi 'an ridiculed in his heart.
He followed Cao Qingyang and stopped in front of the stone door. He heard the purple robed alliance master respectfully say, "Old ancestor, Xu Yinluo has arrived."
An old voice came from the stone door, "Solid foundation, restrained spirit, not bad."
Xu Qi 'an cupped his hands and respectfully said, "Greetings to senior."
The old voice came from the door again, "I've heard about your matter.
Smart people should leave the capital as soon as possible. Are you interested in working for my Wulin League? This old man can accept you as a disciple. He, he, you have already proven your character.
"After a few more years of experience, you will be more than enough to become the next leader of the Wulin League."
Why does everyone want to be my father ….. Xu Qi 'an declined in a neither servile nor overbearing manner, "The matters of the capital are not settled yet. Moreover, this junior already has a master."
"It's Wei Yuan." The old man in the stone door hit the nail on the head.
Xu Qi 'an was silent.
"What do you want to ask me?" The Wulin League's old ancestor did not care about the matter of taking him as a master and was very free and easy.
Senior really knows what to do. Xu Qi 'an had a few questions, so he opened his mouth.
"This junior has seen some files about you and knows that you were an expert that could compete with Emperor Gaozu in the past. Six hundred years have passed, why is it that Emperor Gaozu has already passed away, but you are still the same age as the country. "
The response he received was silence.
Just when Xu Qi 'an thought that the other party would not answer, an old sigh came from the gap in the stone door, "With your current level, these matters are too high a level. In fact, you should not know."
After a few seconds of pause, the Wulin League's old ancestor said, "There are many experts in the Daibun Royal Family. Among them, there is no lack of people like Emperor Gaozu, Emperor Wuzong, and the King of Zhenbei.
"But none of them have survived until now. Do you know why?"
"Please enlighten me, Senior."
"Those who are entangled by luck cannot live forever."
This answer was like a heavy hammer hitting Xu Qi 'an's head, causing it to buzz.
"Why is that?" he murmured.
"That this old man does not know. Perhaps it is the rules of heaven and earth. As for the specific reason, you can ask the Confucian Family or the Celestial Commissioner's Supervisor," the old man said with a smile.
The Confucian Family knows this secret … Xu Qi 'an's pupils contracted, and he said in shock, "So, the Confucian Sage is really dead?"
For a long time, Xu Qi 'an had always had a guess in his heart that the Confucian Sage was actually not dead, but had just pretended to be dead. After all, how could an existence that surpassed his level only live to 82 years old? Wasn't this an insult?
"The Confucian Sages is no exception," the old man replied.
If what this old ancestor said was true, then it was impossible for the Sage to still be alive. The fact that there were no immortal experts in the Daibun Royal Family proved that this old ancestor was not lying.
The Confucian Sages was really dead …
Xu Qi 'an could not hide the regret in his heart. At the same time, some doubts in his heart were solved. No wonder the Yuanjing Emperor was so "tolerant" of the King of Zhenbei. If there was a person with the most luck, it would definitely be the Emperor, and the King of Zhenbei was a pure Warrior, he was sure …
"No!"
Xu Qi 'an blurted out.
Cao Qingyang turned his head in confusion and glanced at him.
"You seem to have thought of something?" the old man said.
Xu Qi 'an turned a deaf ear to the words of a Peak Warrior. He lowered his eyes and his face was expressionless, but the pheromones in his brain were like boiling water.
First, those with luck could not live forever. This was not enough to justify the Yuanjing Emperor's trust in the King of Zhenbei, because the King of Zhenbei was the Prince of Daibun, and he also could not live forever.
History had proven this point.
Therefore, there was another unknown reason behind the Yuanjing Emperor's trust in the King of Zhenbei.
Second, as the ruler of a country, it was impossible for the Yuanjing Emperor not to know this secret. However, even though he knew that it was impossible to live forever with luck, he still cultivated for twenty years and longed for immortality. There was a paradox here.
Did he think that he was better than Emperor Gaozu and Emperor Wuzong? Did he think that even the Confucian Sages could not resist the rules of heaven and earth, and that he, a mere Yuanjing, could be more amazing than the Confucian Sages?
Although the Yuanjing Emperor was not a son, he was not a fool. On the contrary, he was very smart.
While thinking, he asked in a low voice, "Senior, what do you think about the Yuanjing Emperor's cultivation?"
The old man pondered and said, "Perhaps he thought that he had found a way to live forever and sit on the throne. Heh, the person who helped him should be the Taoist Master Renzong. "
"It can't be Luo Yuheng …" Xu Qi 'an frowned.
It was not that he favored his aunt, but he remembered some details. The Yuanjing Emperor first cultivated by himself. After a few years, he made Luo Yuheng the Nation Master and Renzong the State Cult.
As a native of the capital, Xu Qi 'an remembered it clearly.
If it was not Luo Yuheng, who could it be? Well, he could not rule out the possibility that Luo Yuheng had secretly bewitched the Yuanjing Emperor to cultivate. He would ask Duke Wei when he returned to the capital …
"I heard that you had an agreement with Emperor Gaozu?" Xu Qi 'an hurried to get information.
"Heh, it was just a verbal agreement. After the fall of the Zhou Dynasty, all the revolutionary armies fought for the Central Plains. I actually had no intention of fighting for the throne. Because I found a way to ascend to the second rank. Compared to the throne, I was more eager to live forever.
"It was also because of my character. I was born in a poor family. When I was young, I roamed the martial world and did whatever I wanted. I was too full of the martial world spirit, and I longed for a free life.
"The reason why I rebelled was because the people lived a life that was not meant to be lived. When there was no hope in life, they naturally rebelled. He was different from me. He was ambitious and wanted to unify the Central Plains. On the contrary, he was not interested in living forever.
"I remember that he often said that one should pursue great things in life, and that one should pursue great things, not longevity. Living forever is boring. Being an emperor is interesting.
"I lost that battle, not because I went easy on him, but because I was convinced of my defeat. At that time, I made a verbal agreement with him. If his unfilial descendants repeat the mistakes of the Zhou Dynasty, I will be the first to rise up and overthrow the decadent imperial court. "
"Every pioneer has a sincere heart, but the descendants of the later generations often decline in the pursuit of luxury …" Xu Qi 'an sighed in his heart.
"Senior, have you ascended to the second rank?" Xu Qi 'an asked tentatively.
After asking, he hurriedly added, "It was this junior who was rude."
"If I didn't slaughter like the King of Zhenbei, it would be too difficult for me to ascend to the second rank on my own. I've been in seclusion for 500 years, but I still haven't taken the last step. "
The old man said nonchalantly, "In order to help me break through, Qingyang wanted to seize the lotus roots of the Earth Sect for me to consume."
Xu Qi 'an immediately looked at Cao Qingyang and thought, "That's not what you said to the major sects. You said you wanted to seize the lotus roots for the Wulin League so that everyone would have lotus seeds every 60 years."
Cao Qingyang looked back at him and said, "I can grow a lotus root."
"You won't be able to grow it," Xu Qi 'an reminded him.
"That's none of my business," Cao Qingyang said calmly.
"…"
Xu Qi 'an ignored him and looked at the stone door. "Can the lotus root help you ascend to the second rank?"
The old man answered, "It's very likely."
Even so, he did not do it himself. He only gave Cao Qingyang a drop of blood essence. This ancestor of the Wulin League was not in a good state!
Xu Qi 'an's eyes flickered.
"I hope there will be a day when I can help senior." He said.
After saying goodbye to the Wulin League ancestor, he followed Cao Qingyang back to the main peak.
After dusk, the War Hounds Mountain held a banquet. All the leaders and sect masters attended the banquet.
Xu Qi 'an naturally became the main character of the banquet. Xu Baihuo was like a fish in water in this kind of scene.
In his previous life, he often accompanied his leaders to drink and socialize. He also did business and never left the table. After coming to this world, he cultivated in the palace and was a frequent customer of the Musical House.
His cultivation at the banquet was comparable to the first rank!
In just a few moments, she had become acquainted with Martial Union's Sect Master and Sect Master, addressing the Myriad Flower Pavilion's Pavilion Master, Xiao Yuenu.
Yang Cuixue and the others were also very happy. They never thought that Xu Yinluo would be this good at drinking. He drank all the wine without any hesitation and even talked about the secrets of the imperial court.
For example, the Empress, who was the mother of the world, liked Xu Yinluo very much and intended to ask him to be her son-in-law.
For example, he was a frequent guest of the two princesses and could talk about the layout of the princesses' mansion and some private matters of the two princesses.
For example, the Supervisor of the Celestial Commissioner also had troubles. The five disciples of the Supervisor were all talented and pleasant to listen to, so the Supervisor worried about them.
For example, the daughter of Wang Shoufu was deeply in love with Xu Yinluo's cousin. For him, she did not hesitate to become enemies with Wang Shoufu.
Of course, most of the things they talked about were the anecdotes of the Musical House.
Huakui Fu Xiang was good at playing the zither, but she was better at playing the flute. Huakui Ming Yan was unparalleled in dancing and had a soft figure. Xiao Ya was well-read, but she was warm-hearted and kind …
The banquet only ended when he was a little drunk.
Xu Qi 'an carried his saber and walked weakly into the courtyard where he had been placed. He entered the room.
The drunkenness in his eyes immediately disappeared.
"After dealing with the affairs in the capital and investigating the Yuanjing Emperor, I will come to the Sword Province to make connections in advance, so that I can live in the Sword Province in the future …"
He lit the oil lamp, sat at the table, drew out the black gold long saber, and placed it on the table.
Then, he took out a small jade mirror, poured out a lotus seed, peeled it, and gently embedded the lotus seed into the blade.
He didn't have a jade box. Even if he had, he couldn't put a four-foot-long saber in it.
Zhong Li said that his saber lacked a device spirit. The lotus seed could create a device spirit and push the saber to the rank of peerless magic weapons.
