The Ascension Plan of the Ancestral Star of the Shuttles

[302.Chapter 51 Refers to Wen Hua, a Profound Realm Master]

When Xu Fengnian and his party went to Xiangfan, Xu Xiao was also escorted by three hundred Beiliang cavalry outside Tai'an City, Kyoto.

On the official road nearly a hundred feet away from the city gate, Xu Xiao suddenly reined in his horse and stopped, and the three hundred cavalry behind him also immediately reined in their horses and came to a standstill in a uniform movement.

Xu Xiao limped slightly as usual in order to conceal that he had returned to his prime.

Fortunately, he has been lame for many years, and he has long been used to walking when he is lame, otherwise he might not be able to pretend to be so natural.

He walked towards a big willow tree beside the road that had lost all its leaves and just sprouted new buds due to returning to the earth in spring.

He caressed the tree trunk, his face was full of tenderness, and there was a look of nostalgia in his eyes.

At this moment, a luxury carriage pulled by six horses rushed out from the gate of the city, quickly approached here, and soon stopped five or six feet away from Xu Xiao.

Some servants carried the grand master's chair and tea table, rushed to the front of the carriage to set them up, and some maids put teapots and clay pots on them.

A majestic middle-aged man dressed in a black cloak and a golden hair crown got off the carriage and sat down on the grand teacher's chair.

One maid poured out a bowl of tea, and the other scooped out two pieces of rock sugar from the clay pot and put them into the bowl.

The middle-aged man picked up the tea bowl and shook it, took a sip of the tea and put it in his mouth. After rinsing his mouth, he spit out the tea, and then looked up at Xu Xiao with contemptuous and provocative eyes.

Standing by the tree, Xu Xiao tilted his head slightly, quietly watching the man doing the pie, with a half-smile look on his face.

The middle-aged man looked at Xu Xiao and said calmly, "Shangzhu Kingdom, what a coincidence."

The expression on Xu Xiao's face completely turned into a smile, and while walking slowly, he said, "Zhang Zaifu, long time no see."

The middle-aged man was Zhang Julu, Prime Minister of Liyang, and he said in a calm manner: "Shangzhu Kingdom has traveled a long way to Beijing, why don't you go to the city?"

Xu Xiao didn't respond to Zhang Julu's provocation. If he was so easy to get into the trap, he wouldn't be Xu Xiao.

Xu Xiao said in a homely tone with an old friend: "Didn't you see this tree! Nostalgic."

Zhang Julu glanced at the willow tree, and said, "What's so old about this tree?"

Xu Xiao smiled shyly and said, "When my wife and I first entered the capital, we rested under this tree, and it was still on it... Hehe, a mark was engraved."

Zhang Julu suddenly said: "It turns out that I miss the princess!"

Xu Xiao said with a lot of emotion: "Yin and Yang are separated, thanks to this tree, it can be regarded as a memory."

After hearing Xu Xiao's words, Zhang Julu smiled faintly, tilted his head slightly, and said calmly to the servant behind him, "Cut it off."

The smile on Xu Xiao's face froze, and he disappeared quickly. He stopped and looked at the servant behind Zhang Julu.

But he saw that they each carried an ax and went straight to the willow tree behind him.

At this moment, the originally clear sky was suddenly filled with wind and clouds, and the sky darkened in an instant.

Both Xu Xiao and Zhang Julu subconsciously looked up at the sky, only to see that a layer of black clouds had gathered in the sky.

It's just that there is no other situation other than this, and there is no heavy rain, so I don't care.

Two servants were holding axes, and when they were about to approach the willow tree, two Beiliang generals pulled out the Beiliang swords at their waists with a clang, and looked at the two servants with murderous aura.

The servant stopped immediately, not daring to go any further.

But Xu Xiao raised his left hand to stop his subordinates from moving.

Seeing this, the two generals had no choice but to sheath their swords and glared at the two servants viciously.

Only then did the two servants continue to move forward, Zhang Julu over there saw this, with a playful look on his face, and said slowly: "This tree is so precious, I should bring it back to Beiliang for Shangzhu Kingdom, look at it every day, and think about it every day. "

Xu Xiao had a fire in his chest, but he suppressed it very well, but said with a blank face: "Zai Fu is traveling, and you still carry an ax with you?"

Zhang Julu propped his forearm on the tea table, leaned forward slightly, and said with a smile, "I just brought it today, what do you think is a coincidence?"

"Ten"

"Boom"

Just when one of the servants swung an ax and chopped at the tree trunk, a sudden change occurred.

Amidst the black clouds in the sky, without warning, a thunderbolt struck the servant who felled the tree.

The servant barely reacted, and instantly turned into a piece of coke and fell to the ground.

The other servant turned pale with fright. He watched the willow tree retreat again and again in horror, and then looked up at the sky, but saw no electric snake flickering among the black clouds in the sky.

The general of Beiliang Iron Cavalry yelled: "Everyone, be careful, stay away from the trees, and try to stand in the open space."

Three hundred cavalry dismounted one after another and gathered in the center of the official road, away from the trees on both sides of the road.

Although this world is an ancient background, people already know that when it rains and there is no thunder, they can hide from the rain under the trees.

But during thunderstorms, you must not hide from the rain under the trees, especially those who wear iron armor, otherwise they will be easily struck by lightning.

Over there Zhang Julu looked like he had eaten a fly, he looked up at the sky, his eyes were full of resentment, and he said in his heart that God has no eyes.

It is not uncommon to be struck by lightning while under a tree during a thunderstorm, but it is not uncommon.

But it just happened to be such a coincidence that when he ordered his servants to cut down the tree, a bolt of lightning struck and killed him.

In this way, it looked as if Xu Xiao was blessed by heaven, which made Zhang Julu mad with resentment.

The other remaining servant over there stood there in horror, looking at Zhang Julu in bewilderment.

Xu Xiao smiled and said, "Could it be retribution? Zhang Zaifu, he has done so many injustices that even God can't stand it."

With this thunder, even if the tree is cut down, it is worth it.

Zhang Julu was furious in his heart. What he did in his life, he looked up to the world and stood up to the people, how could there be retribution?

He yelled at another servant: "What are you waiting for? Lei won't be in the same position, why don't you do it?"

The servant didn't dare to disobey Zhang Julu, he gritted his teeth, went to the tree and raised his ax to chop it down.

"Ten"

"Boom"

As soon as the ax fell on the tree trunk, another thunderbolt fell from the sky, splitting the servant into coke.

Zhang Julu suddenly stood up, watching this scene with wide eyes.

The smile on Xu Xiao's face gradually disappeared. One thunderstorm was a coincidence, and two consecutive thunderbolts appeared when the ax just hit the tree, so it must not be a coincidence.

Xu Xiao seemed to have thought of something, his whole body began to tremble slightly, he looked up at the sky, his eyes quickly gathered mist, and said in a trembling voice: "Susu, is that you?"

When Zhang Julu over there heard these words, he was also shocked, and a look of disbelief appeared in his eyes.

After Xu Xiao said something, he couldn't help shouting: "Susu, is that you?"

With these words in his mouth, he turned around and limped, staggering towards the willow tree.

All the Beiliang troops turned pale with shock, and the captain at the head shouted urgently: "My lord, be careful, don't get close to the trees."

Xu Xiao turned a deaf ear, rushed to the side of the tree, stretched out his hand to caress the trunk, and muttered incessantly: "Susu, is that you? Are you protecting me?"

Zhang Julu wished so much at this time that another thunderbolt could strike this country thief to death.

Unfortunately, it was destined to disappoint him. What happened next not only disappointed him, but even horrified him.

Because when Xu Xiao's hand touched the willow tree, the branches and leaves that had just sprouted grew at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The gap cut by the ax just now healed instantly.

In just a moment, the leaves are fully grown, forming a green shade.

What was even more miraculous was that the dark clouds in the sky broke open, and a ray of sunlight happened to shine down, covering the tree and Xu Xiao under the tree.

Seeing this, all the soldiers of the Northern Liang Army knelt down on one knee facing the willow tree, no one gave orders, they clenched their fists with their right hands, and knocked on their left chest.

All of them were also very excited, and their mood was difficult to calm down.

Back then, the princess, dressed in white, beat drums on the battlefield, and the Beiliang army risked their lives, and finally won the most important battle.

The status of the princess in the hearts of soldiers in Beiliang is not inferior to Xu Xiao's.

Seeing all these things, Xu Xiao finally couldn't help crying "Wow", crying like a child in his teens.

Not long after, the dark clouds in the sky completely dispersed, Xu Xiao knelt in front of the willow tree, hugged the trunk and cried for a cup of tea before gradually stopping crying.

He wiped away his tears, put his face against the tree trunk, murmured softly for a while, and didn't know what to say, then returned to the team and ordered to enter the city.

And when Xu Xiao hugged the tree trunk and cried, Zhang Julu had already left with a group of servants and maids.

He was not afraid of Xu Xiao's anger and madness, but seeing him, a middle-aged man in his 50s crying like that, felt very uncomfortable, so he naturally lost his provocative mood.

The matter quickly spread in the capital, and this time Zhang Julu went out to provoke Xu Xiao, intending to give Xu Xiao a blow.

In the end, not only did he fail to get off the horse, but because of the two thunderstorms, he was disgraced and left in embarrassment.

Neither Zhang Julu nor other people in the capital believed that the thunder that fell from the sky was caused by the spirit of Princess Beiliang.

If there are really spirits in the sky in this world, why don't those who seek the blessings of their ancestors see the spirit?

It's just that after the investigation by various parties, they didn't find that there were any Taoists who mastered Leifa in Xu Xiao's business, and they were all registered soldiers of the Northern Liang Army.

After investigation by Zhao Danping, the celestial master of Longhu Mountain who preached in the capital, there was no trace of using thunder at the scene, and the thunder was completely natural.

But no one could explain clearly what happened to the willow tree that suddenly became green and the beam of light that shone from the sky.

This matter has become an unsolved mystery of the Liyang Dynasty.

At this time, Li Fei, who was walking on the streets of Xiangfan City, had a meaningful smile on his face.

……

After arriving in Xiangfan, Xu Fengnian didn't rush to see King Jing'an, but found an inn to stay.

One is that they are not in a hurry now, it is King Jing'an who should be in a hurry, so he is waiting for King Jing'an to take the initiative to come to the door.

Secondly, the Wang family's departure was too sudden yesterday, and King Jing'an hadn't reacted yet, so he had to be given some time to react.

When Zhao Xun returned home yesterday and brought back the news that Wang Linquan knelt down to greet Xu Fengnian, King Jing'an had already guessed that this was a deal Xu Xiao made with him.

He was also very satisfied with this deal in his heart. He didn't have to tear himself apart with Beiliang, and he could have an explanation to the capital, which was the best of both worlds.

So he has been at home waiting for Wang Linquan to come, not knowing that Wang Linquan's family had left Qingzhou overnight.

The others were arranged to stay in the inn, and Xu Fengnian and Li Fei wandered around the street with only the blue bird.

As always, Qingniao cherishes words like gold and speaks little. Most of the time, she just looks at Xu Fengnian quietly.

It took more than ten years to look at it, and she also saw it from a girl to a girl, and then to a woman.

She doesn't like to talk, and even when she smiles, she is very reserved, so she always feels like a piece of snow, but it is as hard as iron, not as pleasing as a sweet potato.

But don't look at the blue bird in Wutong Garden, it seems that it is not as close as the sweet potato, but in private, the maids in the yard are more willing to talk to the blue bird.

Let’s just talk about Jiang Ni, who hasn’t spoken a few words with Sweet Potato for more than ten years, but occasionally communicates with Blue Bird.

The three of them were strolling on the street, Xu Fengnian smiled casually at Li Fei: "I received a letter from Luqiuer Qingbailuan this morning, saying that the Jianghu has been very lively recently, with literary reviews, martial arts reviews, and rouge reviews emerging one after another. "

"Guess what? Baihulian'er was actually named the top of the rouge list, the number one beauty in the world."

Li Fei smiled and said, "What's wrong with the most beautiful woman in the world? Ren Nangong has that good looks, but it's a pity that she doesn't like to wear women's clothes."

Xu Fengnian sighed: "Yeah, I really want to see how she looks in women's clothing, what a peerless beauty she is."

After speaking, he thought of something again, and he said enthusiastically: "Hey A Fei, do you think I can be on the martial arts evaluation list with my current martial arts?"

Li Fei said: "If you want to know about this matter, you will have a chance soon."

Xu Fengnian wondered, "What chance?"

Li Fei said: "Wang Mingyang has a younger brother, do you know?"

Xu Fengnian said clearly: "You mean that No. 11 is actually equivalent to Wang Mingyin who is ranked No. [-] in the martial arts ranking?"

Li Fei nodded and said, "That's right. After his brother died, he swore that the Xu family would not enter Xiangfan, otherwise they would be killed."

"We are bound to have a battle with King Jing'an, how can he let go of Wang Mingyin's powerful combat power?"

Xu Fengnian said: "Then do you think I can beat him now?"

Li Fei said: "Whether you can beat him or not, you have to fight to know, but if you can beat him, then from fifth to ninth in the martial arts evaluation list, except for Lao Li who is ranked eighth, you have a chance to win." .”

Xu Fengnian's spirit was lifted, and he said with a fighting spirit: "Okay, if Wang Mingyin really appears this time, leave him to me."

Li Fei smiled and said, "I will do the same without you telling me."

While talking, the three of them approached a pavilion, only to hear thunderous snoring in the pavilion.
