Li Jing didn't believe a word of what Murphy said.
If I were really that awesome, how could I come from a noble family and end up like this?
Murphy knew something about his neurosis early on.
Are you afraid that epilepsy will occur again?
However, Li Jing did not dare to refute, because he knew that the person in front of him who forced him to become a disciple... was a small-minded person. If you refute him openly, even if you say you don't care now, you will be waiting for him to trick you to death later.
So Li Jing chuckled twice, stopped talking to Mo Fei, and turned to read the military book Mo Fei gave him.
Apart from the Secret of Immortality, the greatest treasure Mo Fei gave Li Jing was the countless military books.
You must know that in this era, knowledge is monopolized by the rich and powerful, and books are very precious things. Children from poor families may not have access to many books in their lifetime.
Because of its special nature, military books are the crown of knowledge and extremely precious.
In particular, the Sui Dynasty had just ended the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, an era when kings seemed to be just watching things.
There are many military books that Li Jing has read, but there are also many military books that Li Jing has never read.
After all, although Li Jing's family is considered to be quite good, it is far from being comparable to that of a long-established and well-established family.
The military books that Mo Fei gave Li Jing were all-inclusive, and he was almost certain that many of them were treasures that even the four great clans could not possess.
For example, "Sun Bin's Art of War".
Before Mo Fei took out "Sun Bin's Art of War", Li Jing's impression was that "Sun Bin's Art of War" and "Sun Tzu's Art of War" should be the same book, and Sun Bin was Sun Wu himself.
This is not what Li Jing personally thought, but is almost the consensus of the world, because "Sun Bin's Art of War" is too long ago, and it was lost after the Eastern Han Dynasty, and everything was covered up in the dust of time.
"Sun Bin's Art of War" further develops the military thoughts of "Sun Zi" and "Wu Zi", and is a work with rich military thoughts.
In addition, there are also the art of war after the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the Song Dynasty's "General Martial Arts", "Dr. He's Preparation", "Military System of the Past Dynasties", the Ming Dynasty's "New Book of Jixiao", "Hundred Battles", "Military Training"
"Factual Records", "Wu Bei Zhi", "Cao Hai Tu Bian", "Quotations of Zeng Hu Zhi Bing", "Records of Fang Yu's Reading History", and "A Brief Introduction to the Universe" of the Qing Dynasty.
Among them was a military book that suited Li Jing's taste the most, "Tang Taizong Li Jing's Questions and Answers", which was of course edited.
After the red queen replaced the name, deleted some things that were inconvenient for Li Jing to see, and then printed it, it could be done in a few seconds.
From this, Li Jing was sincerely convinced of Mo Fei. He would give him whatever he wanted. Even his biological father could only do this, what else could he ask for?
As long as Mo Fei doesn't let him do anything against his principles, he will cling to this for the rest of his life.
…
In the southwest of Jingling County, the two tributaries of the Yangtze River, Zhangshui and Jushui, demarcate a large triangular fertile plain. The two rivers flow through, irrigate the fertile fields on both sides, and finally merge into the main river.
The climate here is mild, the soil is fertile, and the products are abundant. Among them, the wilderness where Pegasus Ranch is located has particularly rich pastures. It is surrounded by mountains and covers more than ten square miles of fertile fields. There are only two east and west gorges for entry and exit. The situation is dangerous.
, forming a natural shield for the pasture.
In the meadows full of pleasant colors, green, green and dark, more than ten lakes of different sizes are embedded in it like bright mirrors. The green lake water and the blue grass compete with each other, shining and full of vitality.
It was so lush and beautiful that the two of them were breathless in admiration.
A few miles away from Pegasus Ranch, Li Jing and Murphy heard the sound of horse hooves coming.
"Master, someone is coming." Li Jing tightened the horse's reins, stopped the carriage, and took out the knife he was going to wear: "Listen to the sound of horse hooves, there should be at least thirty riders."
"Don't be nervous." Mo Fei said leisurely: "No matter who comes, as long as Master is here, what can they do to you?"
Li Jing must have been accustomed to a mentality of constant vigilance. Whenever something happened, the first thing he did was to analyze the strength and weakness of the enemy and ourselves.
But this is not surprising. In troubled times, if you are not more vigilant, you may have died long ago.
"Master is right!" Li Jing realized that his master was a super strong man who defeated Jianghuai overlord Du Fuwei without even showing his face. Who should he be afraid of?
If the visitor is really hostile to them, Li Jing alone may not be able to cause any trouble.
Li Jing sheathed the long sword and said: "I don't know whether the people coming are from the Pegasus Ranch or Li Tianfan. But Master, you flew us here, and it only took less than a day. Follow the march of the army.
Judging from the speed, it is impossible for Li Tianfan to arrive so quickly."
Soon, the sound of horse hooves came closer and closer, raising dust all over the place.
"Whoever is coming, please tell me your name!"
The leading knight was a middle-aged strong man with a clumsy face and one eye that was still shining brightly. He shouted, signaling for those following him to rein in their horses and slow down.
"I'm Murphy, my old friends in Jianghu gave me a bandit named Bloody Hands."
Above the sky, a line of white clouds gathered together, forming a super-large human face, looking down at the people in the field.
"It turns out that Senior Banished Immortal is here!" The group of people on horseback stared blankly at the giant white face for a long time. The leader of the one-eyed man came to his senses first, dismounted hurriedly, held his fists in front of the carriage and bowed deeply, saying
: "Junior Second Deacon Liu Zongdao of Pegasus Ranch. Due to sudden twists and turns at Pegasus Ranch, I have been entrusted with the important task of inspecting Pegasus Ranch by my master. I have no intention of offending my senior, and I ask for your forgiveness."
"Relegated to immortal?" Mo Fei was a little confused.
"Master, this is the nickname given to you by the world after you scared off Du Fuwei. Because your methods are extraordinary and holy, almost like ghosts and gods, rather than ordinary martial arts. You are like an immortal descending to the earth." Li Jing gave you the nickname.
Fei explained: "I just didn't expect that even Pegasus Ranch is so far away and I have heard about it."
Du Fuwei was a well-known rebel king in the Jianghu world. He had 200,000 Jianghuai troops in his hands. He was marching into Liyang and eyeing Danyang. He even had a tendency to turn a dragon into a dragon, but Mo Fei easily retreated.
Du Fuwei, showing his magical methods, naturally became famous immediately.
Many people are speculating that Mo Fei's martial arts might have already surpassed the three great masters.
But Murphy and the others were galloping all the way, and later even flew directly here. If we calculate it based on the walking speed of a person, I am afraid that their reputation will not be spread to Pegasus Ranch.
It can be seen that Pegasus Ranch also has its own Yibao website.
"Are these people deaf? Didn't I already tell you that bandits are massacred with bloody hands, so why are they still giving people random nicknames?" Mo Fei said dissatisfied.
"Master, in my humble opinion, the nickname of Banished Immortal seems to be more grand than Bloody Hand Human Slaughter, and it is more in line with your status as an old man." Li Jing said.
"Really?" Mo Fei carefully savored the difference between the two nicknames. It seemed that the nickname "Exiled Immortal" was indeed a bit more noble, so he could only sigh deeply: "Forget it, who is called the Immortal?"
I'm just a casual person, so if I banish an immortal, I'll banish it to an immortal... It's a pity, but it took me half an hour to think about the nickname Blood-Hand Human Killer... Disciple, why don't you use it?"
Listening to Mo Fei's obviously distressed complaint, the corners of Liu Zongdao's eyes twitched slightly. This seemed to be completely different from the image of the senior master he had imagined...
It's just that the magical power of controlling the power of the clouds, which is the symbol of Murphy, is definitely not something that ordinary people can fake.
Liu Zongdao held back the complaints in his heart.
Li Jing waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Master, of course only a person as outstanding as you, Master, can be worthy of such a domineering nickname as Bloody Hand Tutor. How can a disciple dare to ask for it?"
Living in the world with such an arrogant nickname as Blood-Hand Human Slaughter, Li Jing was afraid that he would be beaten to death within a short period of time.
"That's right!" Murphy nodded and said, "You already have the nickname of King of Tota, so it's obviously superfluous to have the nickname of Bloody Hand Massacre."
Li Jing rolled his eyes, "Master, you just can't get over this thing about the King of Towers, right?"
"Senior, please follow me. I will take you to see the owner immediately." Liu Zongdao coughed and interrupted the conversation between Mo Fei and Li Jing to prevent himself from hearing anything he shouldn't hear again, and said:
"The owner of the field must be overjoyed when he heard that Senior Banished Immortal has surpassed Pegasus Ranch, and he will show his loyalty to the landlord."
Mo Fei and Li Jing were introduced to Pegasus Ranch by Liu Zongdao.
The Pegasus Ranch, which is more than ten miles in radius, is surrounded by mountains, with only two east and west gorges for entry and exit.
At the exit of the gorge, there is a tall tower. In front of the building, a tunnel three feet wide and five feet deep is dug, crossing the mouth of the gorge. The bottom is covered with spikes, and one must rely on a suspension bridge to pass. There is indeed a man who guards the gate, but ten thousand people can't cross it.
potential.
"I wonder what senior came to Pegasus Ranch for?" Liu Zongdao asked seemingly casually: "If there is anything I, Pegasus Ranch, can do to help, senior please make it clear. I believe that the owner of the Pegasus Ranch will do his best.
"
"Deacon Liu Er, are you questioning us?" Li Jing looked at Liu Zongdao and said coldly.
"Don't dare, don't dare!" Liu Zongdao shook his head repeatedly and said, "I'm just asking casually. Senior, please don't misunderstand me."
"Jing'er!" Mo Fei scolded and said, "How much do you want Master to teach you? We are all good people and we must be kind to others! Deacon Liu just asked a few more questions, and you made more calculations.
Woolen cloth?"
Li Jing felt like he was getting goosebumps all over his body. Even his parents had never called him such a disgusting name as Jing'er!
Damn it, I'm twenty-four years old, can you please save some face for me?
Also, when did you teach me that we are all good people and we should be kind to others?
Didn’t you say that you have to be thick-faced and have a dark heart?
Liu Zongdao sneered and said: "It's not the senior disciple's fault, it's the junior who talks too much."
Liu Zongdao didn't dare to test it again. The old monster's apprentice was too vigilant.
The old monster seemed easy to talk to, but who knew that he was hiding it well?
It's better not to anger the other person.
"Senior, the road ahead is dangerous and carriages cannot pass. I'm afraid senior will need to get off the car and walk." Liu Zongdao said cautiously.
"It doesn't matter." Mo Fei smiled lightly: "Guests can do as they please!"
There was no wind, the car curtain opened, and a figure floated out from the car without touching the ground.
Mo Fei was the only one.
As for Zhu Yuyan, Fu Jun and Su Su, they were thrown into Jingling City by Mo Fei.
Lu Miaozi hated Zhu Yuyan to the core, so it was better not to let her come in to interfere with her, so as not to cause any more trouble.
This is the first time Liu Zongdao meets Murphy.
Feng Shen is handsome and handsome, and he is actually the first person he has ever seen in his life.
Judging by his appearance, he was only about seventeen or eighteen years old. If he was put together with his apprentice, others would probably misunderstand the relationship between their master and apprentice.
The ordinary knights of Pegasus Ranch after Liu Zongdao suddenly took a breath of cold air when they saw Mo Fei. They couldn't believe that the murderer who was rumored to scare Du Fuwei away was actually just a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old.
appearance.
Liu Zongdao is not surprised. Based on his knowledge, he has long heard that many senior masters with strong martial arts can achieve the effect of keeping their appearance. Even if they are seventy or eighty years old, they still look like young or middle-aged people, while someone like Mo Fei, who is extraordinary and saintly, can achieve this effect.
What's wrong with the old monster, making him look like a young man?
He sighed a little in his heart, if this person is not an old monster, but a handsome young man, how suitable he would be for the owner of the farm. He is a talented man and a beautiful woman. It is a pity...the owner of the farm cannot marry again, and it is impossible to marry an old monster!
Under the guidance of Liu Zongdao, Mo Fei and Li Jing entered the tower, walked through the gorge, climbed the mountain and looked down.
The city wall is built according to the mountain topography and is made of flat stones. It winds and undulates along the terrain, and the situation is steep. The rock behind the city is exposed and the corners are so towering that it is difficult for birds to cross.
Probably also influenced by Li Mihao, there were dense guards along the way, everyone was wearing armor, and a depressing atmosphere quietly spread.
During the whole process, Mo Fei remained half a foot above the ground and floated in mid-air as everyone moved forward. He was so aloof and elegant that the people at Pegasus Ranch felt calm and did not dare to be disrespectful at all.
As far as they are concerned, they have never seen anyone able to remain floating in mid-air. This should no longer be Qinggong, but an immortal skill.
"I never thought that in the hinterland of the Central Plains, there could be scenery like the grasslands outside the Great Wall." Mo Fei clicked his tongue and marveled.
You must know that the biggest problem why the Chinese people are often invaded by the grassland peoples in the north is that the Central Plains lacks horses and cannot form large-scale cavalry to fight against the grassland peoples.
Even if horses can be raised in some places, the ones raised are almost like rogue horses and cannot compare to the fine horses outside the Great Wall.
If there were more livestock farms like Pegasus Ranch in the hinterland of the Central Plains, China would be much less threatened by the grassland peoples.
Li Jing praised: "The geography of Pegasus Ranch is indeed unique. It is surrounded by mountains and blocked by dangerous obstacles, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack. But inside, there is a flat pasture with fertile land and abundant water and grass, which is very conducive to livestock raising. Here
In Pegasus Ranch, herdsmen can graze their cattle leisurely, and in troubled times, they can still remain aloof from the world and not be disturbed by war disasters. What a paradise!"
