A month passed without realizing it, and many things also passed by quietly.
The ancient Minyue city in the Wuyi Mountains collapsed, and the roads in the Wuyi Mountains were completely cut off. The entire Chong'an County seemed to have returned to the primitive times. The cutoff of trade routes made Xiamei Town eerily quiet.
That mountain city was completely buried under the deep mountains and deep valleys. Unless someone used the power of all the people to dig up the land, it would never see the light of day again.
The earthquake that lasted all night will also become a lingering memory in Chong'an County and even the entire Jianning Prefecture, following the strange stories in the ancient Xuancoff Village.
Earth-shattering earthquakes are certainly scary, but what's even more frightening is the unknown itself.
Why did the people in the martial arts community break into the Nine Dragon Nest at midnight despite being dissuaded?
Why did a large group of Qing soldiers run away from the county to the mountains collectively as if they were possessed by an evil spirit?
Why is there suddenly a strange sound like a dragon roaring in the deep mountains?
Why were the cliff coffins on the rocks in the deep mountains of Wuyi and the mass graves in Sanliting pried open inexplicably, and all the corpses disappeared overnight?
Numerous strange situations occurred overnight, causing more rumors about strange forces and deranged spirits to spread from the townspeople's mouths, adding layer after layer of haze to the panic-stricken people.
The people in the town unanimously believed that the Qing soldiers were possessed by evil spirits, so they killed all the guests in Ma Dashan's house indiscriminately, and then rushed into the mountains and were buried by a cliff.
These patrol soldiers, whose names were registered or whose identities were not recorded, simply disappeared into the vast mountains and were turned into pieces of life-related lawsuits and were sent to the county government.
The door was open all day long, but no government servants or magistrates were ever seen entering or leaving the mansion. They quietly accepted the white paper that these human lives had turned into, and the paper was circled and changed into a scene of fighting and death, and finally everything was lost. It was sent into the kitchen stove of the county government office and turned into wisps of ominous white smoke rising into the sky.
The people in the town were frightened and uneasy, but they accepted it all calmly, just like they accepted the county government office that only opened its doors at night to resolve cases, and spent all their flashy emotions in gossip.
There is a hint of tranquility in the sound of banging at night.
As the Shandao Trade Road was slowly restored, news from the outside finally came in.
The most outraged was the Qing court.
Buried in the mountains of Wuyi were not only the hopes of Shunzhi's cultivation, but also the elite soldiers who were mobilized into the mountains from three nearby provinces. The remnant soldiers who were lucky enough to escape all reported that they were attacked by the fang-mouthed mountain capital.
After seeing the brutal monsters that skinned people alive and gnawed horse bones alive, they all suffered from severe forest phobia, and even the sound of bushes would bring them deep fear.
As a result of the empty military strength, Zheng Chenggong began the third Northern Expedition.
Facing the Qing army's three-pronged encirclement and suppression of the Yongli regime in the Southern Ming Dynasty, Zheng Chenggong, as Chen Jinnan said, had teamed up with Zhang Huangyan to adopt a plan to encircle Wei and rescue Zhao. They went all the way north with overwhelming force and joined forces to encircle them along the empty areas created by the empty military defenses and the earthquake in central Fujian. Nanjing, the old capital of the Ming Dynasty, greatly eased the pressure on the Yongli regime.
As long as Nanjing is captured at this time, the Ming Dynasty is expected to recover, and the situation against the Qing Dynasty will also be excellent.
Emperor Shunzhi, who had been waiting for news of the guest bus for a long time, panicked. His serious condition worsened again, and he fell into a trance and a state of confusion. In the Qianqing Palace, he first shouted that he wanted to go on a personal expedition, and then ordered the eunuchs to pack up and return. Outside the pass, he was finally stopped by the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang.
At this time, all road traffic was interrupted by the earthquake. No one expected that Chen Jinnan's plan would be so successful. Zheng Chenggong was dazzled by the victory at this time, and he only felt complacent in the face of the old capital that was about to be restored.
Zheng Chenggong, who fully believed that he could capture Nanjing without any bloodshed, was convinced by the Qing army's plan to fake surrender, so he surrounded Nanjing for a month without attacking. In the end, he was attacked by the city's defenders and reinforcements mobilized from the two lakes by the Qing government, and had to retreat in a hurry. This time he finally retreated.
The Northern Expedition, which was nearly successful, ended in an anticlimactic failure.
The leak from the demon monk Keba was also confirmed, and it was Sun Kewang, the general under Emperor Yongli. After he surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, he betrayed the true and false status of the Southwest Army, and by manipulating the information obtained by the Southern Ming Dynasty, he sold out his former comrades-in-arms.
Towards the sky.
After the defeat of one hundred thousand troops and the death of seventy-two generals, Zheng Chenggong returned to Fujian. He was not as discouraged as others. Standing on the edge of the rolling sea in Xiamen Port, he remembered the message sent by his guide He Bin: There
There is a large isolated island occupied by red barbarians.
At this time, no one could guess that this was where Zheng Chenggong made his great achievements - except Jiang Wen.
The gears of history have never stopped turning, just like the anti-Qing Dynasty has never ended but is always beginning.
After hearing the news, Chen Jinnan left with the remaining Iron-Blooded Youth League. In other words, Chen Jinnan was dead. The only one alive now is Zheng Chenggong's aide Chen Yonghua - from the day he retired from the world, he would shed his false reputation in the world.
Complete your mission well.
Jiang Wen promised Chen Jinnan that he would go to Xiamen and Taiwan to let the Dutch Red Barbarians experience the real martial arts of the Central Plains - such as the Bird Cannon, the Crouching Tiger Cannon, and the Swarm of Bees.
The Southern Shaolin disciples who came later found Hong Xiguan along the road that was badly damaged after the earthquake, and told him that someone had seen Zen Master Zhishan in Guangzhou, who had long been thought to be dead.
The lost disciples of Shaolin are now gathering in Nanchan Temple, while the Wudang sect is also gathering towards Guangzhou day and night. The friction between the two sides is increasing, and it may turn into a fight with each other at any moment.
Faced with Wudang's increasingly obvious tendency to sideline, Southern Shaolin does not intend to sit still and wait for death. The monk group headed by Monk San De is reorganizing the 36th Room of Southern Shaolin to train lay disciples to compete with Wudang.
It can be predicted that in the future, the city of Guangzhou will become the center of the most turbulent storm in the world.
Jiang Wen told Hong Xiguan that if he wanted to fight against the Qing Dynasty, he should not fall into the Qing court's strategy of driving away wolves and devouring tigers. Guangdong Shang Kexi was a repeated tyrant with extremely sinister thoughts, and there would be absolutely no way to survive if he fell into the trap.
The only way is to cooperate with Li Dingguo, the last famous general of the Yongli court of the Southern Ming Dynasty, to help him expand from Yunnan to Guangdong, and to achieve true linkage between the court and the court, so as to find a way out of the dead situation.
In order to reassure Hong Xiguan, Jiang Wen also promised to go to Guangzhou in person when the time came and take Hong Wending back for him to take a look at.
Feng Daode also left.
In fact, he was the first to leave, but he found Jiang Wen alone and warned him not to get involved in Wudang Shaolin affairs, let alone to think about rebelling against the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty. This was his advice.
Regarding this gloomy Taoist, Jiang Wen always felt that he was full of contradictions, just like his martial arts system that was half Shaolin and half Wudang.
The things he does always go against his own wishes and the likes and dislikes of others, but no matter what, he will still do it without hesitation.
The conversation ended that day on bad terms.
Feng Daode said nonchalantly that the ancient bronze sword in Jiang Wen's hand was owned by the uncle of Zhang Sanfeng, the founder of Wudang, and should belong to Wudang.
But Jiang Wen refused to give in and asked him, "Do you know what the Yitian Dragon Slaying Kung Fu is? And do you know the truth about the death of their Patriarch Sanfeng?"
The head of Jiangda said that he would personally go to Wudang Mountain. If the other party wants to know the truth about these things, he should wait for him to come to the door, and at the same time, do not tell others what he did in Wuyi Mountain.
The last to leave were those martial arts people who had a lucky escape.
Jiang Wen didn't expect these guys with big mouths to keep secrets. Anyway, after two kilograms of turbid wine, everything would come out.
But he was well prepared, and first told these martial arts people some insider stories to satisfy their curiosity. Since then, there has been a rumor in the world that the Wuyi hero Qin Duanyu broke in with a fragment of the World Stone.
The Hall of the King of Destruction seals the story of the underground demon.
The leader of Jiang Da, who had washed away his idle dust and was completely alone, finally returned to Dawang Peak with his three disciples on the day of Wuxu month and Guichou day, and began to discuss the establishment of the sect with full of dissatisfaction.
