"Of course!"
People gathered in front of the gate of Shaolin Temple cursed inwardly. Of course, they knew it wasn't only because of the world of The Deer and the Cauldron.
"Who do you think you are? One is a low-level martial world, and the other is a medium-level martial world. You can't be found in the world rankings of Wanjie Lou."
"But why did the shopkeeper mention these two worlds?"
Everyone's hearts were filled with fear and unease, and they had to find a place to vent.
Since the two worlds belonged to the Shaolin Temple, they had a chance.
"Sweeping monk, you must give us an explanation." Su Shi stood out from the crowd and scolded the sweeping monk.
Sima Guang and Su Zhe stood behind Su Shi. Like the sweeping monk, they were from the world of The Demi-Gods and the Semi-Devils.
Both the Shaolin Temple and the Xiaoyao School were vulgar in the eyes of important officials of the imperial court like Su Shi and Sima Guang.
Although the Shaolin Temple and the Xiaoyao School had risen rapidly, they had several masters in the Master Realm and some Great Masters in their sects.
The sweeping monk of the Shaolin Temple was even more deified.
The legends of the Xiaoyao School and the Shaolin Temple were spread in both the imperial court and the Jianghu.
But it didn't matter at all.
The imperial court and the Jianghu were two unrelated forces.
In the eyes of the emperor and the officials of the imperial court, the masters of the two sects were admired at most, and it wouldn't affect the competition in the imperial court.
Unexpectedly, the Liao Kingdom invaded the border and forced the imperial court's border troops to retreat.
The imperial court's border troops retreated, but the people on the border didn't have time to retreat. They thought the imperial court could stop the Liao Army, so they didn't retreat at all.
As usual, the Liao Army slaughtered three cities and looted the wealth of about ten cities before retreating happily.
Unexpectedly, the Xiaoyao School and the Shaolin Temple took action after learning of the matter.
When the two armies fought, the Shaolin Temple and the Xiaoyao School didn't participate, because there was no evil or good in a war between armies.
Besides, the 50,000 border troops fought against the 10,000 cavalrymen of the Liao Kingdom, so they didn't participate.
However, after learning that the Liao army had slaughtered nearly a hundred thousand civilians, the Shaolin Temple and the Xiaoyao Sect quickly took action.
Under the leadership of His Abbot Xuan Ci, the Shaolin Temple deployed the One Hundred and Eight Arhats Formation to intercept the Liao army.
Wu Ya Zi, the head of the Xiao Yao Sect, led the three elders of the Xiao Yao Sect and many experts of the Xiao Yao Sect in pursuit.
The battle lasted for an entire day, and the ten thousand cavalrymen of Liao were completely annihilated. None of them managed to escape from the encirclement of hundreds of people.
The battle took place in a place surrounded by mountains on both sides of the Liao Kingdom, so the Song Dynasty didn't know what was going on.
However, when the 100,000 cavalrymen of Liao knocked on the border again, the Song Dynasty was completely dumbfounded.
"We wiped out 10,000 cavalrymen of Liao?"
"We did this?"
"Can we do it?"
"If we could do that, would we still need to send you so much money every day?"
"If you want to hit us, just say it. We'll stand here and let you hit us to vent your anger."
The imperial court of the Song Dynasty was filled with wails. They were implicated even though they were not doing anything. The Liao Kingdom's skin was getting thicker and thicker.
… …
The army of the Song Dynasty quickly retreated, once again abandoning the dozens of cities along the border. They gathered hundreds of thousands of soldiers around Hongde City, preparing to fight a protracted war.
When the Liao soldiers retreated, they would reclaim the lost cities.
In the eyes of the Song Dynasty, the news of the destruction of the Liao Kingdom's 10,000 cavalrymen was pure nonsense, and they should go back after getting some benefits.
However, the Liao Kingdom knew that the ten thousand cavalrymen had indeed been annihilated in the territory of the Liao Kingdom.
The emperor and generals of the Liao Kingdom thought that this was a provocation from the Great Song Dynasty to the Liao Kingdom, and they wanted to pay it back tenfold.
Massacre the entire city!
It was the most effective way for the Liao Kingdom to intimidate the emperor and the officials of the Song Dynasty. It was also the best way to train the beast-like courage of the Liao soldiers.
The Liao Kingdom was furious, while the Song Dynasty was full of resentment.
The Liao Kingdom planned to slaughter all the people of the Song Dynasty in the border town and beat the Song Dynasty until they couldn't raise their heads anymore.
The Song Dynasty planned to defend against several waves of attacks by the Liao Kingdom after they vented their anger. They began to transport money from all over the country to prepare for reparations.
At this moment, the Shaolin Temple and the Carefree Sect moved again.
They didn't wait for the Liao soldiers to finish slaughtering the civilians.
Instead, they captured all the officers above the rank of centurion in the Liao Kingdom at night.
The next day, the camp of the Liao Kingdom was in chaos, and they found that all the generals were missing and had fled.
"Kill all those who kill civilians!"
On the border city of the Song Dynasty, the commander guarding the city found eight bloody words and many generals of the Liao Kingdom hanging on the city wall.
The bloody words were written by Tianshan Tonglao using the commander of the Liao Kingdom as a pen. The commander of the Liao Kingdom's scalp had disappeared.
The abandoned commander of the Song Dynasty made a great contribution by capturing all the generals above the rank of centurion in the Liao Kingdom alive.
"Who did it?" The commander of the Song Dynasty looked at the delighted commander.
The commander of the Liao Kingdom naturally bragged about his achievements.
However, the commander of the Song Dynasty chopped him into pieces. The commander, who dreamed of getting rich and promoted, didn't know why the commander of the Song Dynasty killed him.
"A monk did it."
Before the Song Dynasty could interrogate the commander of the Liao Kingdom, the commander of the Liao Kingdom and the generals of the Liao Kingdom confessed all the facts in fear.
Although the people of the Carefree Sect wore the same clothes, the people of the Song Dynasty might be able to recognize them, but the people of the Liao Kingdom couldn't.
However, the people of the Liao Kingdom knew the bald men in the Shaolin Temple very well.
The commander of the Song Dynasty changed his mind and shaved the heads of his 3,000 soldiers. He went back to Tokyo with the commander of the Liao Kingdom, becoming a national hero.
However, a few days later, the army of the Liao Kingdom came back.
Although the generals of the army were captured alive, the rest of the 100,000 scattered cavalrymen returned to the Liao Kingdom safely, except for a few hundred soldiers who went missing.
The emperor of the Liao Kingdom quickly reorganized the army and promoted a new group of generals to attack the Song Dynasty again. However, they didn't dare to kill the people of the Song Dynasty anymore.
They only wanted to save the captured generals of the Liao Kingdom.
Zhao Xu of the Song Dynasty was excited to lead the army in person and asked the commander of the Liao Kingdom to go with him. However, they were defeated by the Liao Kingdom in one round. The whole army was routed, and Zhao Xu was about to be captured alive.
At this moment, the soldiers of the Liao Kingdom and the Song Dynasty finally saw who caused the defeat of the Liao Kingdom.
108 Arhats rushed into the camp of the Liao Kingdom like 18 road rollers, crushing the Liao Kingdom's soldiers who were chasing after them.
The masters of the Xiaoyao Sect even drove their flying swords and showed the Song Dynasty and the Liao Kingdom a scene of Xianxia. Both sides were dumbfounded.
"Reward! We must reward them!"
Zhao Xu of the Song Dynasty was excited. It turned out that the masters in the martial arts world were so powerful that they had to be made officials.
In this way, when the Liao Kingdom invaded in the future, it would be easy to beat them back.
The other martial artists in the martial arts world also took the opportunity to join the court. The situation where the civil officials dominated was completely changed.
The civil officials and the martial artists fought against each other, and the martial artists even suppressed the civil officials.
"Su Ping, how dare you stand out?" Before the sweeping monk could say anything, Abbot Hui Cong of The Deer and the Cauldron stood out again.
"You plagiarized others' poems. You're a cultural thief, a cultural bandit."
"What did you say?" Su Shi's face turned livid.
When he first entered the world of Wanjie Lou, he attended a poetry conference. He didn't know what was going on, so he recited the poems he had written.
"The river flows to the east, and the waves wash away everything …"
"Alright, stop showing off. Change to another song." Su Shi had just recited one sentence when he heard the crowd booing him.
"Is the standard for the poems here so high?" Su Shi thought. He had to change to another one.
"Ten years of life and death …"
"When will the moon be bright? I ask the sky with a cup of wine …"
… …
However, after reciting a few more poems, Su Shi noticed that the people below looked at him with more and more disdain. He even recited some poems as soon as he mentioned the name.
Under the booing, Su Shi ran away in embarrassment and gained the title of "King of Plagiarism".
Although he later found out that the person who recited the poem was Su Shi, the title was still with him.
"Then why don't you make a poem that's beyond the level of Shuidiao Getou?" Abbot Hui Cong looked at Su Shi with a smile. Didn't you say that you didn't plagiarize?
If you're so capable, why don't you make another poem that's beyond Shuidiao Getou?
