Luo Xin was a little confused. He didn't remember that he had saved such an expert?
Besides, such an expert still needs to save himself?
"The Earth Temple at the northern foot of Taihang Mountain seven years ago."
The old man told me a place.
Luo Xin was stunned for a moment, then his expression changed.
He remembered!
Seven years ago, Luo Xin was in his second year of wandering around the world.
At that time, the government was pursuing him closely, and Luo Xin had the life of a court official in his hands.
So I didn't dare to stay in big cities for too long, so I could only hang out in the Taihang Mountains.
That day, Luo Xin had a good meal outside with people from all walks of life, and originally wanted to stay in the county town and have some sleep.
As a result, a murder occurred in the city, and the police officers were looking for people everywhere.
Luo Xin was afraid that he would be recognized, so he could only quietly leave the county.
The Tutu Temple at the foot of the northern foothills of the Taihang Mountains is his frequent stop.
It's not far or close to the county seat, and the police would rarely go so far to search for people.
So Luo Xin also hid some dried meat, cakes and wine there.
The reason is that if the government discovers him, he can run here to avoid the limelight.
Arriving at the ruined temple, Luo Xin found an old Taoist lying at the door of the ruined temple.
The old Taoist had no obvious injuries on his body, but he was lying there dying.
Although Luo Xin is a fugitive, he is not a crazy and evil person.
Seeing a thin old Taoist throwing himself at the door, Luo Xin kindly helped the old Taoist into the Tutu Temple.
He also took the wine, meat and dry food he had hidden and fed it to the old Taoist.
The old man drank some wine and ate two mouthfuls of dried meat, and gradually gained some strength.
That life was saved.
The next day Lao Dao and Luo Xin said goodbye.
Asked Luo Xin’s name.
Luo Xin wandered around the world at that time and gave himself the name Taihang Lone Ranger.
The old Taoist wrote down Luo Xin's name and staggered away.
Before leaving, he said that if there was a chance in the future, he would help Luo Xin complete three things.
Luo Xin didn't take it seriously at the time.
An old Taoist priest who looked like he was in his final years was swaying on the sidewalk.
What can you do for yourself?
However, he did not retain the weak old Taoist.
It is the most basic rule for people in Jianghu to do Jianghu things without asking others about their whereabouts.
Later, the old Taoist left, and Luo Xin forgot about this matter.
I didn't expect that today, when I was on the verge of death, I would meet the old Taoist again.
Moreover, the old Taoist really saved his life and helped him kill Boye, a powerful enemy.
"It turns out to be the Taoist Priest! I haven't seen you for seven years, but the Taoist Priest's style remains the same!"
Luo Xin thought of the past events of that year and was grateful that he had saved a great master.
The words that come out of his mouth are all nice.
Still very charming.
The old man was almost dying at that time, but he was the one who saved him.
How can you tell what kind of style it has?
But now that the old man showed great fighting power, Luo Xin had to cheer up to greet him.
"Have you joined the army?" Instead of being polite to Luo Xin, he asked directly.
He didn't care about Luo Xin's injury and let Luo Xin lean against the wall of the thatched house.
"Taoist Priest. I am now the leader of the rebel army and have proclaimed myself the King of Letters. Taoist Priest, you saved me, and I will definitely repay you."
Luo Xin named himself.
The old Taoist's expression did not change much, he just nodded and said:
"King Xin? Oh, so you are King Xin."
"Taoist Master, please come back to Xinyang with me!" Luo Xin sincerely invited.
If the old Taoist's strength were to bring him down, he would be very scared. He would just kill whoever is unhappy!
Luo Xin was thinking about the benefits of adding more money to Lao Dao, but Lao Dao nodded directly and said:
"That's fine. I promised to help you solve three things at the beginning, and now I've solved one. Going back to help you twice will be considered as fulfilling Pindao's promise back then."
Of course Luo Xin heard that the old man was not doing it for fame and fortune, but that he was keeping his promise when he faded away.
But what Luo Xin wants is for Lao Dao to return to Xinyang with him.
Trust and affection can be cultivated slowly.
Luo Xin felt that as time went by, his sincerity could impress the veteran.
"Your Majesty! Save Your Majesty!"
Just as he was saying this, a group of people suddenly rushed outside.
The people who came here were Heizi and Zhang Lei.
They finally managed to disperse Boye's troops, and when they went back to look for Luo Xin, they found that they were gone.
After asking the injured guard, Boye actually chased Luo Xin and ran this way.
Heizi and Zhang Lei came all the way.
However, the sentence is quite far away, and after walking for a while, you have to come down to identify the direction.
That's why I didn't find it until now.
"Don't be rude! Don't be rude!"
Heizi and Zhang Lei led people into the small courtyard and saw Lao Dao standing in front of Luo Xin who fell to the ground.
They thought it was the old Taoist who hurt Luo Xin.
Busily carrying weapons, they surrounded the old man.
Anxious Luo Xin hurriedly exclaimed.
Heizi and Zhang Lei brought twenty or thirty people with them.
Putting aside everything else, Luo Xin estimated that even if he wanted to kill the old Taoist, he might not be old enough to kill these people.
"Prince! You are injured!" Zhang Lei immediately took out the medicine from his arms.
Heizi was watching the old man from the side.
The old man ignored Heizi and just waited for Luo Xin to get up.
Zhang Lei helped Luo Xin get some medicine and then helped Luo Xin stand up.
"Taoist priest, I still don't know your Taoist number?" Luo Xin asked very respectfully.
At that time, he didn't like Lao Dao at all, so he didn't ask Lao Dao for his name.
The old Taoist said expressionlessly: "Pingzhen."
"Taoist Priest Pingzhen. Thank you for your help!" Luo Xin solemnly clasped his fists.
Zhang Lei and Heizi both looked puzzled.
They saw Boye's body lying there.
It's just that they thought it was a fight between Luo Xin and Boye that would hurt both sides.
No one thought that a seemingly weak old man could save Luo Xin from Boye's men.
"Taoist Master, please follow me back to the camp." Luo Xin made a gesture of invitation.
Taoist Pingzhen nodded slightly and left the small courtyard under the guidance of Luo Xin.
Luo Xin hurriedly winked at Heizi and Zhang Lei, telling them to be careful in entertaining the old man.
I was afraid that if these two people offended the old man, he would be photographed again.
Zhang Lei nodded, but Heizi disagreed.
He still didn't believe that the old man had any great abilities.
Don’t all the masters look down on fame and wealth?
This old man comes when called, how can he be an expert?
Luo Xin limped out, and Zhang Lei asked someone to find a cart.
He took Luo Xin and Lao Dao all the way back to the camp.
At this time, the camp was clearing the battlefield.
Boye fought hard to be surrounded.
If he had no experience, he would have won the stud game.
As long as he kills Luo Xin, he can kill Luo Xin's army.
Finally, he calmly returned to Shunzhou.
He still has an army of 20,000 to 30,000 men in Guishun Prefecture.
Even if the people here are killed and dispersed, he can still gather an army of forty or fifty thousand.
It was enough to completely wipe out the leaderless Luo Xin forces.
Unfortunately, he failed.
Because I met Taoist Pingzhen.
The stud didn't succeed, and even ended up in death.
Boye died, and the fleeing Sumo people lost their backbone.
Soon they were captured one by one by Luo Xin.
The army headed north and returned to Shunzhou the next day.
In Guishun Prefecture, Luo Xin Boye's body was exchanged for the submission of the 27,000 Sumo warriors in Guishun Prefecture.
At this point, the war in the Northland ended.
Luo Xin annexed Boye's power.
He gained more than 40,000 soldiers and more than 17,000 horses.
