Two months, whether it is long or short, the trees in Tianheng Mountain have turned golden and started to fall, and a chill has spread in the air. People have gradually begun to put on thick cotton clothes, winter is here.

Caught off guard.

"The winter solstice is here in three days."

At this time, Mr. Hong was having tea with Taoist Priest Tian Heng in Hengyun Pavilion, and he also took the opportunity to discuss matters regarding the hall examination.

This is the first time to join hands with Zhongzhou Mu’s Miyun Banner to conduct a court examination. It is also a good opportunity for the younger generations of the two parties to learn from each other. Mr. Hong is very confident in this group of disciples.

The disciples of the Eight Great Families will go to various places to find a way out after completing their studies. Except for the three masters who are resident in Tianheng Mountain, the second-generation disciples basically hold important positions in various states of the empire, and many of them are

Zhongzhou Mu has made a name for himself.

"Today, Major General Chen will bring his children to familiarize themselves with the venue."

"I heard from Shangqing that among the younger generation of Zhongzhou Mu, there is a boy named Tang Xin who is quite good."

Mr. Hong took a sip of tea, and Taoist Master Tian Heng said thoughtfully:

"The disciples of the Tang Sect of the Yin family are naturally not ordinary people. Aren't the eldest sons of the Mo Sect of the Mo family also working under General Chen?"

"You are talking about our Mo Lin's brother Motu."

Mr. Hong continued. It seemed that Mr. Hong knew a lot about Miyun Banner.

"Hidden Tiger Tang Xin, Mo Gong Mo Tu, Dai King Li Yan, Xun Wu Fang Ci, Yu River Han Yue."

"These five boys call themselves the 'Five Tigers of Miyun'. They are young and have a very good tone."

"I heard that the fourth child will also go back to the mountain to take a look."

As soon as Mr. Hong finished speaking, Taoist Master Tianheng almost choked on his tea.

The fourth son of the second generation disciple of Tianheng Mountain is named Zhang Zhiyu. His name is gentle, but his temperament is not gentle at all. When he first became a disciple of the mountain, he fought thirty rounds with Master Taiyin who was four or five years older than him.

Because he was dissatisfied, he became a disciple of Tianhengshan. If Lu Cheng's momentum had not been so great later, people would probably remember this irascible Zhang Zhiyu.

He is quick-tempered, fast-talking, and most afraid of trouble. So after all these years, he is still a bachelor because he really has no intention of falling in love with a girl. Because of his temper, when he was originally sent to suppress bandits along the east coast, he was stunned.

Bandits from seven or eight hills.

Even a general from Zhongzhou Mu said, Zhang Zhiyu is just a mountain cannon!

Later, Zhang Laosi was taken under the command of Major General Chen Jintuo, and he led the cavalry battalion of Miyun Banner to the East China Sea all year round.

It didn't matter that he ran away, Luxian Palace suffered a disaster. When Luxian Palace was in a state of turmoil because of the incident in Lu Cheng, just when it was about to recuperate and settle down, Zhang Laosi and a group of people went straight there

Luxian Palace.

Although Zhang Laosi went to the East China Sea under orders to fight bandits and pirates, the first thing he did when he went to the East China Sea was to seize the Luxiangong shipyard, directly commandeer the shipyard, and quickly build a dozen clippers.

Luxian Palace is unwilling and wants to report the problem to the higher authorities.

As a result, Zhang Laosi took 30,000 cavalry and surrounded Luxian Palace overnight. He dropped two large boxes of gold at the gate of Luxian Palace, saying that he wanted to redeem the equity of the shipyard. You, Luxian Palace, could not accept this money.

You have to collect it, you have to collect it even if you don’t.

With such a siege, everyone from Luxian Palace who wanted to go out to report the news was caught, and the anxious Taoist Priest Penglai was also very worried.

Zhang Laosi, although he is not afraid of Luxian Palace, but Zhang Laosi is a close confidant of General Chen. How about you not giving General Chen face? If you don’t give General Chen face, then you are not giving Zhongzhou Mu face.

Zhongzhou Mu Mianzi, your disciples in Zhongzhou Mu...

A typical gangster, I think your shipyard is good and you are rushing to work for me. If you fail to complete the task, you are colluding with the gangsters and plotting evil!

With this big hat off, Luxian Palace is in trouble. Just as the incident in Lucheng subsided, another troublesome thing happened. This time Tiantian refused to respond. Later, Taoist Priest Penglai shamelessly begged for help.

When he arrived at the general's place, the general blocked him back with just one word.

"Our young soldiers are performing official duties. How can it be okay if you don't give your full support? Don't bother me with this kind of thing in the future!"

Of course, Zhang Laosi was very successful in fighting against the bandits. In just three months, he wiped out all the bandits in the East China Sea. He also completely wiped out the family fortune of Luxian Palace Shipyard.

In three months, the shipbuilding materials alone used more than two boxes of gold. Plus labor costs, site fees, maintenance fees, etc., then at least

Four or five boxes of gold, with an average of 100 kilograms of gold per box, would result in a loss of 300 kilograms of gold for Luxiangong Shipyard.

Three hundred kilograms of gold, three thousand taels of gold, Luxianggong Shipyard's three-year revenue was only this much, and the costs had to be factored out, which immediately caused him a lot of pain.

Although Zhang Laosi causes trouble, he can also get things done. Such a talented person can naturally get along. General Chen has the ability to make things happen. Let Zhang Laosi stir up trouble as long as he can handle it.

Well, no matter what trouble you cause, it won't be a big deal.

Therefore, Zhang Laosi, the mountain gunner, is indeed well-deserved.

"This bastard doesn't even say hello to me in advance when he wants to go back to the mountain. Doesn't he know that Lu Cheng is also in Tianheng Mountain?"

"He just came back from the Western Desert recently. I'm afraid he doesn't know yet."

Mr. Hong's expression of not caring about the big deal really made Taoist Priest Tianheng speechless.

It would be great fun if Lu Cheng and Zhang Laosi met together. The two of them had played together since childhood and had to compare everything. Although Lu Cheng was younger than Zhang Laosi by five years, if these two people were

There is no trouble that cannot be caused when we get together.

There is a saying that the reason why Lu Cheng came to Luxian Palace in the first place was because he was young and frivolous.

But when Zhang Laosi went to clean up Luxian Palace, it was a typical competition with Lu Cheng.

Didn’t you, Lu Cheng, plan to cause trouble in Luxian Palace? Not only did I, Zhang Laosi, want to cause trouble, but I also surrounded him. I even ransacked the shipyard for him. Not only that, I also made great achievements in suppressing the bandits. No one can say that.

What do we.

If these two bastards get together, they might cause some trouble.

"Come on, Miyun Banner will go up the mountain in the afternoon, how can I arrange this?"

Taoist Master Tian Heng couldn't drink any more anxious tea and wandered around the room. On the contrary, Mr. Hong was indifferent. He looked at his senior brother's anxious face and didn't panic at all.

"Senior brother, when you come, you will be in peace. General Chen is here, and the fourth child can't find flowers."

"No, I have to tell that bastard in Lucheng!"

After that, Taoist Master Tian Heng went out to look for the person.

At this time, Lu Cheng had no intention of talking to Taoist Priest Tian Heng. He was in charge of heaven and earth and could not control him. Lu Cheng Laxiang farted. He had eaten a lot of new dishes that Yang Ming tried to make recently. The taste was quite exciting and quite good.

It's fragrant, but my stomach can't stand it.

As winter approaches, people from the Leiyunlong Lei Zhang sect of Zhenyun Temple sent two hundred kilograms of chili peppers to Tianheng Mountain. They are a specialty of the river. They are delicious and dehumidifying. This made Yang Ming, a little cook, go crazy and start cooking with chili peppers.

Give the food to Lu Cheng.

Lu Cheng has eaten a lot in the past few days, such as regular spicy chicken cubes, fried pork with chili peppers, fish fillets with chopped peppers, etc.

The most important thing is that this little bad guy made a big jar of pickled pepper rice wine with spirits, and the pepper and sesame are delicious. He chopped it into pepper paste and served it with hand-shredded chicken, and rolled it with freshly baked pancakes. It was a delicious meal.

!

Lu Cheng was injured if he just ate like this.

Although Lu Cheng's Qi cultivation was not low, his stomach still protested wildly against such indiscriminate eating. Lu Cheng had sores on his mouth and tongue, diarrhea and abdominal pain for three consecutive days.

In the past few days, I didn't even look for Yang Ming. I secretly went down the mountain to drink porridge to nourish my stomach.

He was a dignified imperial envoy from the Western Regions. He had been in the hall, in the kitchen, out in the Western Regions, and fought against jackals, but he was actually defeated by the little pepper.

It's embarrassing to say it! It's embarrassing for adults!

"Yang Ming, you boy, wait for me!"

After thinking about it, Lu Cheng still felt that he had been tricked by Yang Ming.

At this time, Yang Ming was sitting in front of Lin Ruo's retreat, holding a dinner plate and chatting with Hu Yue. He didn't even think about whether Lao Lu's stomach was on the verge of collapse.

"Yang Ming, tell me why Senior Sister has been in seclusion for so long this time."

"I heard from Lao Lu that if a person has a great realization, it is very common for him to stay in seclusion for more than a month. However, Senior Sister, going without food or drink for more than a month is a bit..."

"Worrying."

Hu Yue's ability to answer questions has not slowed down at all. The little girl has been working hard these days. She has finally consolidated the practice of the Three Purities, enriched her spirit, energy, and spirit, and began to use the Seven Star Formation to understand the Five Elements spells.

, there have been quite a few breakthroughs in recent days.

Of course, Yang Ming put a lot of effort into her process, and her daily nutrition was very sufficient, and the little girl even grew a few centimeters taller.

While Yang Ming and Hu Yue were talking, Lin Ruo's retreat door was slowly pushed open by her.

"Senior sister! You are out of seclusion!"

Hu Yue ran forward excitedly, and Yang Ming quickly came over with water. Lin Ruo looked pale and seemed to be severely malnourished. Fortunately, she had Qi to protect her body, otherwise she might have fainted on the spot.

Yang Ming fed Lin Ruoshui, and she circulated her Qi. After gradually stabilizing her breathing, she reluctantly said a word.

"I succeeded."

Although her tone was very slight, it was difficult to conceal the joy deep in her heart.

"If you don't come out, I'm afraid you'll have to turn into a fairy."

Yang Ming brought the dinner plate over. Lin Ruo was indeed very weak at this time. Yang Ming made her very light egg soup and fish soup. In order to better replenish her energy and blood, he even took a few pieces of donkey soup.

gummy candy.

After Lin Ruo finished eating, Hu Yue helped her go back to rest, while Yang Ming cleaned the dishes and returned to the kitchen.

After cleaning up, Yang Ming sat cross-legged under the big willow tree and began to circulate his Qi. The past two months of practice had made his Qi full of strength and resilience. He was already familiar with the use of Yin in Yang, although this

He has made great progress over a period of time, but his Qi has never reached the level of awakening.

Lao Lu said that this is because it is very difficult to cultivate the innate pure yang true energy, and it is also very difficult to find treasures that can gather the innate pure yang true energy.

Although Lao Lu said that he would help him find such good things, he has not even been down the mountain in the past two months, and he does not seem to be doing anything.

"Lao Lu is still unreliable. You have to rely on yourself to practice."

Yang Ming has long stopped competing with the big clock. In the past two months, he has thoroughly sorted out his own Qi movement and figured out a very practical set of luck rules.

Although he is born with pure yang energy, as long as he masters the use of yin in yang, his offensive methods can be diversified, and he will not have to use protective qi to resist everything.

All in all, although Yang Ming has made great progress at this time, he is still a little rusty in the use of Qi.

After all, he was enlightened late, and although he was a very diligent bird, he was not as fast as the bird that flew earlier.

"I heard that General Chen has arrived at the mountain gate. Let's go and have a look."

At this time, many third-generation disciples had already gathered towards the gate of the mountain. After all, they had long heard the rumors about the young man from Miyun Banner in Zhongzhou, and the rumors of the "Five Miyun Tigers" were also very popular.

These five are minor celebrities who have appeared in Jianghu Monthly. They fought extremely well in the battle to suppress the bandits along the east coast of Miyun Banner. How old were they then? At Yang Ming's age, those five were already fighting on the battlefield.

.

As for Yang Ming, he has never killed anyone, but he has killed a lot of chickens, ducks and fish.

However, Yang Ming is also a good-natured person, otherwise he would not have gone for a walk around the mountain gate while returning from picking on Tianhengdao's birthday.

At this moment, General Chen was on his way up the mountain with his side general. In addition to the side general who came to celebrate his birthday two months ago, there was also a burly man on his right side.

The big man was more than eight feet tall, and his strong and muscular muscles could be seen through his armor. His face was full of energy, and he was looking at the scene near the mountain road with a spring breeze on his face.

"General, look, I haven't been back for a few years, and these little bastards don't even know how to clean the mountain roads. When I was still in the mountains, you didn't know that the mountain roads were neat and tidy, and the trees were

, you have to behave yourself, then..."

"Okay, Zhang Laosi. Since you talk a lot, I will see your master soon. You must be very excited."

"Hey, Adjutant Li, we are so proud now. When we first came down the mountain, we were in a state of despair. How can we not be so majestic now when we come back?"

Adjutant Li was really dumbfounded when he saw Zhang Laosi's appearance. General Chen was completely amused by this. He knew that Zhang Laosi did not cause any trouble to Taoist Tianheng when he was at Tianheng Mountain.

However, this boy came down the mountain abruptly, leaving a note and then hurried down the mountain. When other disciples came down the mountain, they only went down the mountain after thanking their master and taking the transportation and customs clearance documents from the master.

Fortunately for him, he went down the mountain in a daze. If Miyun Banner hadn't been not far from Beigan, he would have starved to death on the way.

Behind the three people was a phalanx of about a hundred people. You couldn’t come empty-handed when you came to Tianheng Mountain to take part in the United Hall Examination. These hundreds of people carried more than a hundred kilograms of Miyun’s specialty—evergreen cabbage.

Golden silk jujube, and various weapons.

It's not a good idea to come empty-handed to participate in an event on someone's property. These are all going to be given to Tianheng Mountain. Of course, the food and clothing for the 100 people still have to be arranged by the host, which is considered a courtesy.

Although the Miyun Five Tigers are well-known outside, in the final analysis they are the disciples of Zhongzhou Mu. Everyone has to work. How can you be embarrassed not to do it? These five people are carrying big and small bags and carrying small cabbage in the square formation.

Zao, just like other soldiers.

"Boss Tang, my fourth uncle used to be quite famous in Tianheng Mountain."

Li Yan came close to Tang Xin and muttered, but Tang Xin had no intention of paying attention to him. Tang Xin's eyes swept across the three generations of disciples who were in charge of welcoming him in front of the mountain gate, and did not find Lin Ruo's figure.

"Boss, I have no intention of talking to you. I asked you, little Li, if you could stop talking so much nonsense."

Motu gave Li Yan a kick in the butt, and Li Yan scratched his head.

"Brother Mo, is your brother in front? Do you want to say hello?"

"You are still poor, believe it or not, I will whip you."

Although Motu saw his younger brother Mo Lin in the crowd, although they only made eye contact, there was no more eye contact. Lu Chen, who was beside Mo Lin, was aware of Mo Lin's changes.

When Mo Lin saw Motu, he smiled slightly.

"Your brother?"

Lu Chen asked, Mo Lin just nodded. The brothers met and recalled that the last time they met was at the Momen of the Mo family. It was after Mo Tu was kicked out by his brother Mo Tu that Mo Lin met Master Shangqing and went up to Tianheng Mountain.

"He has not changed much in seven years."

After Mo Lin finished speaking, he turned around and left. His back was very thin, but extremely heavy. This weight was something that Lu Chen, a man with no clan or parents, had never carried before, and he could not help Mo Lin.

Some roads can only be walked by one person. Some hurdles can only be passed by one person.

When Yang Ming came to join in the fun, Lu Cheng inexplicably pulled him into a small alley inside the mountain gate. Seeing Lu Cheng's red and pale face, Yang Ming was a little confused.

"Lao Lu, what's wrong with you?"

"Boy, can you think of a way to make the fat man next to Chen Jintuo have diarrhea?"

Yang Ming was confused. He did see Zhang Laosi, but he didn't know what was going on between Lao Lu and Zhang Laosi.

The most important thing is that he doesn't want to get involved at all.

"Don't think blindly, that's my Fourth Senior Brother. We grew up peeing in the mud, and we are very strong, but we often do little tricks with each other. Hey, I caught him this time, and I have to punish him.

.”

Yang Ming suddenly had a new understanding of Lao Lu's dark psychology. Do you want to punish your senior brother who you have played with since childhood?

"Lao Lu, look at how I look."

Yang Ming pointed at his face and let Lao Lu see it.

"The skin is very white, rosy, and has some elasticity!"

"I'm just a cook, not a witchcraft master. Is it appropriate for me to do the poisoning?"

"I think you are quite suitable. Look..."

Before Lao Lu could finish his sentence, he pulled Yang Ming and hurriedly squatted down. Yang Ming wanted to ask him what was going on, but Lao Lu covered his mouth and followed Lao Lu's line of sight. He saw a man and a woman in front of him.

They stood facing each other outside the alley.

"That's not Lin Ruo."

Yang Ming lowered his voice and said.

"Who is that across from him?"

"Tang Xin, that kid from Mumiyun Banner in Zhongzhou. You don't even know what the hell you are doing?"

Lao Lu took the opportunity to hit Yang Ming's head, causing Yang Ming to struggle twice in pain.

"I really didn't expect that you would really dare to come to Tianheng Mountain."

Although Lin Ruo's tone was weak, there was a hint of determination.

"I came to see how you were doing."

"No need! I don't want to see you at all!"

"But back then..."

Tang Xin wanted to say something else, but the sword in Lin Ruo's hand was unsheathed, and the sharp sword power and ethereal sword light instantly pressed on Tang Xin's shoulders.

Lao Lu was frightened. Lin Ruo's sword obviously had murderous intent, but he couldn't be allowed to kill this kid here, otherwise there would be a big problem.

So Lao Lu rushed out with Yang Ming in his arms. He deflected Lin Ruo's sword with his left hand and grabbed Yang Ming's collar with his right hand. The four of them suddenly formed a very strange situation.

Tang Xin didn't want to hide at all. Although Lao Lu also saw that this sword could not kill Tang Xin and would only hurt him, he still took action because Lin Ruo was not in a calm state at this time.

"Lao Lu, why are you dragging me out?"

Lao Lu showed off his skill, which almost strangled Yang Ming to death. He fluttered the dirt on his body, stood up and stood next to Lin Ruo. Lin Ruo was very weak at this time, and barely stood still after swinging his sword.

Yang Ming saw that she was a little unsteady, so he supported her.

"Hey, let me tell you, what kind of hatred do you two have? Why did you just come up and chop him down?"

Lao Lu raised his eyebrows and asked Lin Ruo. Lin Ruo bit her lip and said nothing.

"I've met Master Lu Cheng."

Tang Xin saluted Lao Lu very politely. Now Lu Cheng is the Imperial Envoy of the Western Regions, but in private, calling him Imperial Envoy is too personal. When facing Lu Cheng, who is older than him, it is not impossible for Tang Xin to call him "Master".
