Beichen Sword Sect's Headmaster's Secret Records

Chapter 223 Ranger
Shen Jianjia sat on the bed regulating her breathing and practicing Qi. When she came to her senses, she opened her eyes and saw Tiedan sitting far away at the door of the guest room, drinking wine and studying the scriptures in his hand. He did not do anything out of the ordinary while she was practicing, so she felt relieved.

"So what's yours?"

Tiedan asked casually while drinking wine and eating peanuts and reading the Buddhist scriptures he had snatched from the Huguo Temple.

Shen Jianjia did not hide it, picked up the bamboo scroll and said,
"This sutra is called 'The Miraculous Lotus Flower, a Flash of the Moon's Magical Skill', which is the unique internal skill practiced by the Eunuch Supervisor. It is specially used to cooperate with the Gang Fist to exert force and teach the superior internal skill of using Gang Qi.

This skill is a combination of internal and external cultivation, and its Qi is domineering and extremely powerful. When it is practiced to the highest level, at the critical moment of life and death, the power can be raised to the level of Hundred-Layered Gangquan.

Although this skill is very strange and has many taboos, and is not suitable for men to practice, I have already practiced it to the third level, and it seems that there is no problem now. Thank you."

Well, it seems that this guy is really blessed. With the guidance of his master along the way, he can earn magic weapons and magical skills easily.

However, since the Epiphyllum Magical Art is the authentic eunuch secret book, then what are these Buddhist scriptures in his hand?

Well, Tiedan felt that his comprehension was really good, but after looking at it for a long time he still couldn’t figure out what it meant.

Although he could recognize every word copied from the sutra, he had no idea what it was talking about when they were put together. At first he thought it was a famous classic in the commentary on the sutra, but when he read it, the sentence structure was completely wrong, the words and sentences were not complete, and it was all mixed up. There was not even an explanation of the flow of qi in the meridians and the use of qi.

Could it be that these scriptures are not some kind of cultivation method or martial arts secrets? Or are they encrypted and there is still a lack of password to decipher them...

Jianjia also looked at the pile of scriptures curiously, and talked about all sorts of things.
"What about these of yours? What are they?"

Others have unlocked new skills, but he is still confused. Tiedan rolled his eyes in annoyance.
"Why should I tell you?"

"You... hum!"

Jianjia was so angry that she simply sat back down to practice her qigong and didn't bother to pay any attention to him.

Tiedan had been looking for a long time without any progress and had finished his wine. He didn't have the heart to argue with Jianjia, so he put away the Buddhist scriptures and went out to get some wine.

Tiedan originally thought that the Six Gates might be able to cover up the death of a few people, but a major case like the one at Huguo Temple would shock the three realms and shock the government and the public, right?
So he ordered some food and wine, sat in the tavern, and wanted to hear the eunuchs' reactions, but to his surprise, he didn't hear many people openly discussing the incident at the Huguo Temple.

Well, that's right, everyone hates dead eunuchs, but if the spies of the factory guards find out that you are gloating over other people's misfortunes, wouldn't you get into trouble for having your family confiscated and your entire family exterminated? Besides, there have been too many big events that have shaken the world recently, and everyone must have been numb to the shock.

Well, if we talk about the biggest thing in the world today, it is of course Hebei.

It is said that after Zhongshan Gong Shi Jiao led his army to capture Ye City, he burned down government offices, killed officials and soldiers, looted everywhere, and swept across the country with unstoppable force. Within a few months, counties in Genzhou were lost one after another, officials and soldiers fled, and the capital was shaken.

Now that the Northern Army has basically pacified the Gen Kingdom, that traitor Shi Jiao actually proclaimed himself the Heavenly King and took control of the affairs of the two countries, Kan and Gen. He made Ye City his capital and used the Bronze Stork Palace as his sleeping palace. Now that the army has gathered in Guandu, he has also sent envoys to demand an alliance with the Three Yuans and the title of king.

This beast is so bold and crazy that he even dares to establish his own government and divide the world with the Immortal Palace. Naturally, the Three Palaces can no longer sit idly by.

So what did they care about?

Well, okay, we also have to talk about what the Three Palaces, who are theoretically the masters of the world, are doing.

In the end, nothing was done...

Of course, the officials in the court of Taiwei Palace were not really just sitting there doing nothing and not wanting to do anything. They were very good at seizing opportunities to fight among themselves for positions. So as early as when Duke Zhongshan started his rebellion, they had already discussed in the court meeting how to move to another position.

After a fierce struggle, the mistress of the Ziwei Fairy Palace couldn't stand it anymore. The Queen Mother of the Fairy Palace appointed her eldest brother, the representative of the foreign relatives, formerly the Minister of the Nine Ministers, as the general, and awarded him the tiger talisman and the royal flag, allowing him to dispatch the five battalions of the left and right Yulin to defend the capital.

It just happened that at this moment, Sanyuan's most capable assistant, the Xiao family, who was responsible for the preparation of supplies for the front-line army, suddenly encountered an accident at this critical juncture. The ancestor of the Xiao family was assassinated, and the inevitable political turmoil in Zhenguo caused the Northern Expedition to be delayed.

Although the new general had never been on the battlefield, he still understood the principle of sending food and fodder before troops move forward. Moreover, the word "cautious" was not called for in vain. Although Ziweiyuan and Taiweiyuan urged him, he just said that the soldiers of the three yuan had not seen war for a long time and needed to recruit new soldiers, reorganize the armaments, and collect military equipment and food before fighting.

So the general planned to appoint eight captains to recruit able-bodied men in Sizhou, organize a new army, station them at the eight passes, help guard the passes, train in tactics, prepare for war, and be ready to go out at any time to suppress the rebellion.

As a result, there was another heated argument over which eight people, no, which eight families’ representatives should do the job, and the dispute was still unresolved...

This has been delayed again and again, and now it has led to the disaster of the Demon Sect destroying mountains and temples. The princes, princesses and daughters of the Southern Sect who were traveling around the world fled to the South Gate of Ziweiyuan and wailed, asking the Immortal Emperor to send troops to rescue their father.

There is no need to say much about the Immortal Emperor's attitude. Those are family affairs, national affairs and world affairs. His own affairs come first, so he will send all the troops in the capital to the south to rescue people.

Then, let alone the civil and military officials, the Queen Mother and the generals would not agree. Oh, are you courting death? If you really send troops and get stuck in the south, will you ask Shi Jiao to attack? ?
As a result, the situation in the world is becoming more and more chaotic, and the situation in the court is becoming increasingly turbulent. The general has finally gained control of the court and has become more cautious. He dares not leave the capital without permission. Naturally, the issue that the three courts have finally reached has to be started over again.

As a result, there has been a huge debate in Taiweiyuan about whether to fight south first and north later, or north first and south later, or whether it is okay for my immortal palace to be invincible in the world and fight on two fronts.

In this situation, the death of three dogs and the burning of dozens of old eunuchs in a fire were no big deal.
In the end, only the Sili Xiaowei suffered the most misfortune. After all, it was his duty, but he could not maintain the law and order in the imperial city. He was sitting alone, squatting there and unable to escape. So everyone took out their anger on him, and he was fired at by the three dukes, nine ministers and generals in turn, and was scolded and dismissed from his post in the end...

Tsk, it took so long to get rid of a Si Li Xiao Wei, this is still not enough to muddy the waters...

It seems that just playing house is meaningless, we need to work harder and do something big...

"Where does the envoy sent by the Zhongshan rebel live?"

As soon as Tiedan asked, everyone fell silent and looked at each other sideways. It was obvious that they were all very smart and knew who the stranger was.

Tiedan laughed and said,

"I am just a country boy who wants to see what kind of traitor the northern thief is like. He looks like a ghost with three heads and six arms, a green face and fangs. He can actually sweep the world and scare the officials of the court. No one dares to fight him."

"Humph! What three heads and six arms! What ghosts and gods! It's just a stone dragon! Just a vulgar fellow! Brothers, don't boost others' ambitions and destroy your own prestige!"

Immediately, a drunken young knight in fancy clothes with a sword and dishevelled hair stood up and wandered to Tiedan. Seeing that Tiedan was also carrying a sword, he nodded at him and sat down.

"I have seen that stone dragon when he was held hostage in the capital! He is nothing but a chicken or a dog! All it takes is a sword and a man! Taking his head is enough!"

Tiedan smiled, took a wine bowl, lifted up the wine jar and poured him a bowl.
"Please tell me something, big brother, so that I can broaden my horizons!"

The ranger was not polite either. He drank the whole bottle in one gulp, and patted his chest with a red face, saying,
"Okay! I'll tell you! Humph! Shi Jiao! What a bullshit! And he calls himself the King of Heaven! Pah!

Back then, he knelt in front of my house like a minion! Do you know what my uncle said about him?
Check! Be cautious! Be respectful! Be careful!

Hey, but it is true. If he hadn't pretended to be like that, how could we have let him go? The same goes for all the gentlemen in the hall! You were wrong, you were wrong!"

Oh, I thought this drunkard was just talking nonsense, but I didn't expect he knew about the dark history of Zhongshan Gong selling hooks in Sanyuan, no, being a hostage. Sanyuan is indeed full of crouching tigers and hidden dragons...

"I didn't expect that this big brother actually knew Shi Jiao? But that villain has become a god and worshipped a general, so he must be quite old, right? I wonder how old you are this year, big brother?"

So Tiedan also pretended to be unconvinced and provoked him.

This plan really worked. When the drunk saw that no one believed him, he stood up and said angrily,

"I just said you have no vision! You ordinary mortals can't recognize a true immortal!

Don’t look at me like this, I have also cultivated Qi and transformed into a divine body! I am a person who practices Qi cultivation!”

Everyone laughed, but Tiedan nodded. This guy was indeed a miscellaneous cultivator. Although he didn't practice the orthodox techniques of the three major sects, he did have a strange sense of Qi, and it was unknown how much combat power he had. However, the world is so big that there are all kinds of strange things. These knights have traveled the world and are well-informed. Maybe they have some unique secret methods to prolong their lives. The drunkard patted his chest loudly.
"I am a person who has truly cultivated his abilities. He, on the other hand, has only obtained a golden elixir bestowed by the Emperor!"

Someone immediately seized the opportunity to argue.
"Hey, it's just the Divine Transformation Pill, what Golden Pill? Tsk!"

The drunkard jumped up and down,

"You are just an ordinary person! You are just a mortal! The slag from the Divine Transformation Pill is nothing! The Shengang Divine Infant Divine Transformation Pill is just a semi-finished product! It is just the dregs from refining the Daluo Eight or Nine Body Shaping Golden Pill!"

Everyone sneered even more, thinking it was just a drunkard going crazy.

However, when he heard the 'Daluo Eight-Nine Body-Shaping Golden Pill', Tiedan's eyes immediately lit up.

This recipe is also recorded in the Lao Xuanmen Daozang! Although it is only a few words, because the name is too long, Tiedan also has an impression of it. It seems to be the top secret recipe of the Immortal Palace!

This guy has something in his stomach!
Pour him a bowl quickly.

The drunkard was very satisfied after drinking the drink because he saw that Tiedan was very nice.
"You mortals don't know that when the Immortal Venerable was here, he wiped out the demon race and forged nine tripods, which were called Dingding Jiuzhou! He dominated the nine heavens!

The flesh and blood of the killed demons would be thrown into the cauldron to be cooked and refined. Each cauldron could refine nine Daluo Eight or Nine Body-shaping Golden Pills!
"By giving these eighty-one golden pills to meritorious men and loyal ministers, they can forever protect the stability of our Immortal Palace! For thousands of generations!"

Looking around, he saw that everyone was stunned, with a look of "WTF!" on their faces. Then he sat down smugly, drank the wine in the bowl to moisten his throat, and continued to argue.
"What the stone dragon got is a Daluo Golden Pill that takes a thousand years to refine once, and each furnace can only produce nine!
Just this one pill! Can extend your life span by 1,200 years! After taking it, your flesh and blood will be reshaped instantly! Divine power and domineering body! Heavenly Gang protects you! You can avoid 72 disasters! You can avoid 36 harms! From now on, you can travel across the three realms! Invincible in the world!"

This time, no one looked at him, but turned to look at the eunuch who suddenly appeared at the door.

But the eunuch was also listening quietly, so Tiedan poured another bowl for the ranger.
"and after?"

The Ranger sighed,

"What's next? Hey! The younger generation is not doing well!"

Everyone looked at the eunuch again, and the eunuch smiled, indicating that they should wait and listen to what he had to say.

The Ranger continued,
"First, they lost a tripod from the Demon Sect, and then another one was stolen by the Demon Cult. With all the Nine Provinces, they should have two. Later, their own people made endless noises. Now, some of the Nine Tripods were lost, and some were broken. There is probably only one left that can be used!
I don't know how many of the last batch of Daluo Jindan are left after they were given to this person and that person. If I start refining the furnace, I don't know when the elixir will be ready!
Alas! It’s all because of our incompetence! We are so ashamed of the Immortal Lord! We can’t protect this great country!!”

The eunuch nodded, seeming to agree.

Tiedan poured him another bowl, and the man immediately got up and drank it, and continued to talk,
"So a mere stone dragon is nothing! He is just a flatterer who deceived the Three Enclosures and deceived the saints, and that's why he was granted the golden elixir!
Bah! He is just a villain who uses external forces to change his fate! You don’t need to be afraid of him! "

Oh, you can still pull it back...

Tiedan rolled his eyes.

"The Daluo Golden Pill is so powerful, why not pick someone who is loyal to the court, take a pill, and then take the traitor away, right?"

"That's right! A mere stone dragon is nothing compared to a god or demon. A clerk can capture him! If one pill is not enough, take two! If two pills are not enough, take four! We can still turn him upside down!"

The knight laughed loudly towards the sky, drank another bowl of wine, and stared at Tiedan as if he was half drunk.

“But who in this world is truly loyal to the court?

Shi Jiao? Shen Hou? Or, you and me?"

"How dare you discuss state affairs? You deserve to be beheaded! Take them all from us!"

When the eunuch gave the order, everyone was stunned. Oh my, what an unexpected disaster! What an unexpected disaster! The gossip spirit is killing people...

But it wasn't just Tiedan. The ranger also looked calm and smiled as he turned back and said,
"Uncle Zong, you're so late. I've already had two drinks."

The eunuch laughed.
"After one drink, there's still another one. This one's on me. Let's go."

The Ranger patted his butt and stood up, holding the sword in his arms and ready to follow. Suddenly he remembered something and pointed at Tiedan.
"By the way, store owner, please pay for the wine on his bill."

Tiedan smiled, didn't care, and bowed to him and said goodbye.

The ranger also laughed, took out a jade pendant from his arms and threw it to Tiedan, clasped his fists and said goodbye, then chased after the eunuch to have another meal.

Tiedan looked at the jade pendant and saw that it was made of top-quality material, white jade as white as saltpeter, with dragon patterns on the surface and the word "Yuan" carved in patterns.

Wow, such a good thing is not used to make a treasure, but just used as a decoration, and even thrown to passers-by. Is he a child of a noble family?

Tiedan didn't care. He ordered another jar of wine and a pound of meat and ate for a while. He sat there until dark, when Shen Jianjia came out to find him.

"Who to kill tonight?"

Tiedan has also thought about what to eat and drink.

“Right now, Asgard is still struggling over where to send its troops, so why not let me help them make the decision.

The princes of the Southern Kingdom are all outside the Nantian Gate and are not easy to kill.

Shi Jiao has also sent envoys to Luoyang. If we can kill him, it will be a good show to watch."

"Okay, let's go."

Jianjia stood up and was about to leave.

Ferritin glanced at her.
"Do you know where the Honglu Temple is? Just go."

The reeds are strange,
"Of course I know, but there's no need to go to the Honglu Temple. Only when the Three Palaces issue imperial edicts, when foreign officials come to pay homage, or when the various tribes pay tribute, are these envoys eligible to ascend the Taiwei Palace. Normally, they wait in the audience house of the Tianshi Palace for an audience.

However, the Grand Minister of Rites is one of the Nine Ministers, and is now generally a figurehead. Usually, the Grand Minister of Rites is in charge. Usually, the then-Grand Minister of Rites will directly arrange for the envoys to live near his own residence, so that they can be received and met at any time."

Oh, I forgot that I was revisiting an old place.

Tiedan: "...then let's go."

Jianjia frowned.

"You've been sitting here for so long, just because you don't know where the envoy lives?"

Tiedan is angry,
"Bullshit! Didn't you see I was drinking?"

Reeds,

"hehe."
