The first cause of all realms

Chapter 165 The Battle of Changliu Mountain
This is a majestic mountain range, stretching across the land, stretching from north to south, thousands of mountains undulating, with peaks competing to be beautiful, surrounded by miasma.

It cuts off the two prefectures and crosses all the prefectures.

This mountain range, named Changliu, with its high and dangerous peaks, is one of the seven famous mountains of Longyuan Taoism. It is said that an ancient immortal once practiced here.

There have been Taoist true cultivation in all dynasties, and it is also present in many swordsman stories.

Such a famous mountain naturally has many Taoist temples and warriors who want to establish a sect.

In fact, as recently as a few decades ago, there were several sects in this mountain, and dozens of Taoist temples established themselves here.

It's just that with the catastrophe that swept across the rivers and lakes and martial arts, it became a passing cloud. Later, although no one established a sect here, because of its high mountains and dense forests, it became a hiding place for fugitives .

Over time, it has become a place that ordinary people respect and stay away from.

It's just that this mountain is adjacent to two prefectures and borders various prefectures. The mountain roads are dense and there are always places where there are mutual exchanges. Naturally, there is never a shortage of caravans who want to pass here.

It also raised a group of rogue bandits who roamed around the various houses.

"It stretches across two prefectures, straddles the various prefectures, with many mountains and dense forests, full of miasma. It is really a good place to live. Except for the nine kings of the Ming Dynasty who led the army of hundreds of battles to the rivers and lakes, who can break through this place? ?”

Standing on a desolate hilltop, Yu Changjing sighed a lot.

But all the famous sects in the rivers and lakes are rooted in the famous mountains, is it because the mountains are easy to practice?

No, it's because the terrain in the mountains is complicated, and in case of accidents, you can advance and retreat as you like.

Who doesn't know that the best place to practice in the world is in Gongmen, in the royal court of the Ming Dynasty with hundreds of millions of lands and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians?

But who can disrespect and stay away?
In the final analysis, they are just warriors, not Taoist priests, and there is no need for them to be ascetic.

If it wasn't forced by the situation, who would want to get into this ravine that has no other benefits except poisonous insects and miasma?

"Compared to our Bai Longxuan, it's much better."

The few people who came with him looked at the mountain and compared them in their hearts, but they had to admit that it was not without reason that Changliu Mountain could be called a famous mountain.

At this time, the sky is just bright, and the clouds and mist are shrouded in Changliu Mountain, covering the endless beauty of other dangers, and it is more like a blessed place in the cave, a fairy cave.

If you don't experience the poisonous miasma for yourself, everyone will have to praise the beautiful scenery.

"Brother Yu, there are countless dangerous peaks in the Changliu Mountain Range, where are we going?"

A slightly younger swordsman guessed:

"Then Xu Wenji's suppression of bandit Changliu will definitely offer a large number of rewards. I will find a good place and kill it at the right time. It is indeed much better than the big team."

The rest also agreed.

Xu Wenji and Nie Wendong represent the orthodoxy of the Ming Dynasty, especially the former, who once restrained the army, and under their orders, no matter which sect they are in, they have to sell face.

I am afraid that I will be denigrated as evil heretics.

What's more, the reward offered by the imperial court is really sweet.

After the mountain fell and the temple was destroyed, the one with the most martial arts secrets in the world is no longer the Sutra Pavilion of Lanke Temple, but the Ouchi Imperial Library.

Moreover, the imperial court also has the most various elixirs.

These two are great temptations for any martial artist.

"You guessed wrong."

Who knows, Yu Changjing sneered:
"Who told you that I am here to help Xu Wenji?"

"What, what..."

"Brother Yu, do you want to help Changliu Mountain? This, isn't this the way to die..."

"How can Liu Shan, the head of the district, compete against the imperial court? Senior brother, please think twice!"

……

Hearing this, the expressions of the rest of the people changed.

Bai Longxuan has always been connected with the Greenwood Road, but that is just a conflict of interests, to put it bluntly, it is just for the caravans under his door to pass through dangerous places.

In addition, all kinds of precious things that could not be sold were stolen from the plunder on the green forest road.

But it doesn't really have any friendship with Lvlindao.

It's fine in normal times, but making friends with gangsters at this time, isn't it courting death? !

"Hehe~"

Yu Changjing looked at the fire from everyone's expressions, but he also understood that this was the thinking of most ignorant people in Qingzhou today.

He just sneered.

Sneered until the rest of the people dared not speak up before saying:
"Could you have forgotten why Yunzhou Wulin withered?"

"The martial arts forest in Yunzhou is withering?"

A few people are a little confused:

"Isn't Yunzhou 'Dilong Villa' also very good, with a great reputation. Seven years ago, Brother Yu followed his uncles to visit as guests?"

"It's just an appearance! The Wulin in Yunzhou is already in decline. Without any external force, it will completely wither in a few years!"

Yu Changjing's face was gloomy.

"how can that be?"

Several people were in an uproar.

Longyuan Road is located in the frontier, adjacent to Liuji Mountain, which is a must-fighting place among the three. For 400 years, martial arts have flourished. Although Yunzhou has no Qingzhou, which is famous all over the world because of Qingzhou soldiers.

But his martial style is particularly strong.

Not to mention the military arena, even if it is a civil dispute, most of them will use swords.

Therefore, Yunzhou martial arts, in previous years, still suppressed Qingzhou martial arts, and Yunzhou was still the best in the three-state martial arts discussion in Longyuan Road once every 30 years.

"You only know that Xu Wenji climbed from a mere small town to the center, ranking first rank, but you don't know what he used to enter the court."

Yu Changjing's eyes flickered.

It is very difficult for mud-legged people of all dynasties to succeed, such as the great ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, it is simply a miracle, unprecedented in ancient times.

It is also a miracle that Xu Wenji walked from the small border town to the center!
You know, Nie Wendong, who came from a famous family and studied under the world's great Confucianism, has not been able to enter the center yet.

"This……"

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay, feeling a little regretful in their hearts.

We asked you why you were against the court, what did you say about Xu Wenji?

I was full of slander in my heart, but I still bit the bullet and asked:
"why?"

"It took him 15 years to register all the forces and everyone in Yunzhou... And, he used the ultimatum that was originally only on the head of monks and priests, and used it on us..."

Speaking of this, Yu Changjing's tone became a little erratic:

"Dilong Villa is the leader of Yunzhou Wulin, but when I went there seven years ago, the youngest among them was already nearly thirty..."

The trip to Yunzhou opened his eyes.

What Xu Wenji did in Yunzhou was almost unprecedented.

He didn't know which big man in the court promised to implement several of the ten directions for governing the country that he had written in Yunzhou.

Including but not limited to 'degree ultimatum', 'equal field', 'population census'.

So much so that in the current operation, from the aristocratic family to the powerful gentry, everyone hates him to the bone.

The big clans who originally owned thousands of hectares of land and whipped hundreds of slaves have all been buried in the ground, and those who escaped liquidation by chance will no longer have the glory they once had.

On the Green Forest Road in Yunzhou, Jianghu Zongmen suffered a big defeat and their roots were cut off.

Degree?

The rest of the people were stunned for a moment, and then felt a little chilly all over their bodies.

If sects and gangs need to obtain permission from the imperial court to recruit disciples, then they will die out soon...

"Do you really think that it was Ji Longshan's Juyi who attracted Xu Wenji?"

Yu Changjing took a deep breath:

"It's because of Xu Wenji's coming that Jilongshan's long-term Juyi stay!"

At this point, the rest of the people thought about something, vaguely guessed something, looked at each other, but no longer questioned anything.

Seeing this, Yu Changjing nodded in his heart.

After explaining a few words casually, he took only one person with him, and walked into the Changliu Mountains surrounded by clouds, mist and miasma, which looked like a blessed land of fairy mountains.

……

……

In Changliu Mountain, the clouds and mists linger all year round.

The rugged mountain road naturally couldn't stop Yu Changjing's footsteps. He turned over the mountains and forests with ease, and arrived at the destination just after noon.

This is a perilous peak surrounded by mountains, surrounded by moss-covered cliffs. There is only one relatively flat mountain road that seems to have been dug out, leading directly to the faintly visible pass halfway up the mountain.

At this time, there were horse-drawn carriages driving on this mountain road, and at a glance, there were no heads or tails, no one knew how many.

"It seems that I came too late..."

Yu Changjing smiled slightly.

The young swordsman behind him was a little dazed: "These are..."

"Naturally it should come."

Yu Changjing smiled faintly:
"Junior Brother Zhou, don't you think that helping the boxer stay is the senior's own decision?"

"Could it be?"

Zhou Xingyun's heart clicked.

Yu Changjing didn't say much, he went up the mountain with a familiar road, and the pass was not blocked, as if he was familiar with it, he greeted the thugs on duty.

Zhou Xingyun looked dazed, even a little faint.

Half a year ago, Jin Yiwei questioned them in the name of thieves, but he was still not convinced. At this moment, it seems that the relationship between the door and the thieves on the green forest road is very deep.

Not Lu Ming, Lu Wanchuan and others, but...

Zhou Xingyun felt weak for a while, walking into this famous den of thieves in Qingzhou was even more uncomfortable, he didn't dare to look or speak.

But I was also shocked by the fact that this mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Many repairs are more similar to the style of the army, and I am afraid that there are expert pointers.

And on the carriages, there were occasional sounds of gold and iron colliding, and occasional strong winds lifted the covers of the carriages, and the neatly placed swords could be seen.

Even, arrows.

Most of the people escorting the carriage were masked, but they all walked steadily, obviously they were well-versed in kung fu, he took a quick glance and recognized the characteristics of several disciples.

"Okay, Junior Brother Zhou, just wait here. Only Senior Brother can enter this pass."

After passing through several treacherous passes, Yu Changjing stopped again.

After undergoing several inspections, he finally entered the checkpoint that cut across the mountain road and entered the Changliu cottage.

The huge cottage was completely silent at this time, quite a bit of the quietness before the storm.

"Brother Yu came just in time. Today, my eldest brother is out of customs and is meeting with the leaders!"

The person who came to meet the long mirror was a burly middle-aged man with a curly beard like thatch, with iron chains wrapped around his bare right arm, and a black meteor hammer made of some strange metal hung behind him.

"Leader Lao Wu personally came to greet him, I am really ashamed of receiving it. Why, the chief left the customs today?"

Yu Changjing didn't dare to neglect, and bowed to respond.

After Ji Longshan entered Changliu, he first destroyed the most powerful force in the mountain and established Changliu Shanzhai, and then subdued the other forces, together with several major bandits since Juyi, they were collectively called the Changliu Seven Bandits.

The person in front of him was named Wu Changshan, although he was the last one among the seven great bandits, he was also one of the bandits who once laughed proudly. He was a bandit who ran across the state capital, and his martial arts methods were all first-class.

"If you don't go out of the customs, will the village be picked?"

Wu Changshan let out a sinister laugh, trembling like a grass beard:

"The imperial court is approaching menacingly, and we will not wait for death with our hands down. The big leader is leaving the customs this time, and he is going to take down ten cities as a letter of war, and give it to the veteran of the two dynasties, Mr. Xu!"

　I was delayed by something... Continue to code, try to go to bed at 10:30 every day, my work and rest are chaotic, and my memory declines as fast as hair loss.
