Chapter 157 Tibing Mountain, the fifth raccoon dog

"I would like to stay in an inn or a yurt."

Li Hanyi gestured while talking, holding a few taels of silver between her fingers, which shone brightly in the setting sun.

This move immediately attracted a group of people, including four or five strong men with broad shoulders and broad shoulders, who slowly gathered around.

The woman who originally wanted to come over and strike up a conversation immediately dispersed in horror when she saw these strong men.

Li Hanyi was wearing a gray cloth scarf, her hair was tied into a high ponytail, and came out of a bamboo hat.

A bamboo hat is both sunshade and sun protection.

Her voice was thick, but her graceful curves still revealed her identity as a woman.

These big men got closer and closer, and the strong body odor came from their bodies.

Li Hanyi held back her breath, put away her silver and left, planning to find a deserted corner to meditate all night.

"Are you from the Central Plains?"

Someone among the men asked in broken Beiliang dialect.

The accent of Beiliang dialect is slightly different from that of Beili dialect, but it is understandable.

Li Hanyi was so sickened by them that she still dared to speak. She twisted her waist and dodged between them like a fish.

Seeing Li Hanyi escape from their surroundings, the men couldn't help but be stunned.

Then someone shouted: "Little lady, stop, I will take you to my house to live!"

Li Hanyi walked faster and faster, and the men chased after her and started running.

Not wanting to cause trouble, she walked to a corner, jumped up to a nearby roof, and looked at these people coldly.

Several men lost their pursuit and were very unwilling to make a fuss nearby.

Li Hanyi was impatient by them, so he jumped out of the city at night, walked dozens of miles, and found a gentle slope to lie down on.

The starry sky on the grassland is extremely bright, and the stars seem to be right in front of you.

Li Hanyi stretched out his hand, and only the gentle wind blew by.

She smiled, put her hands behind her head, and fell asleep.

It was a great night's sleep.

After the sun came out, she got up, rubbed her face, and headed straight to the Rouran Mountains.

Beimang established five towns in the Rouran Mountains: Laohuai, Rouxuan, Jilu, Gaoque, and Wuchuan, with nearly 90,000 Rouran cavalry.

The fifth raccoon dog, the owner of Tibing Mountain, is also known as the co-owner of the Rouran Mountains.

In addition to the Rouxuan Army Town under its direct jurisdiction, the generals in Laohuai and Wuchuan towns all came from Tibingshan, a sect that governed at least three military towns.

Li Hanyi has no interest in the army, but Fifth Raccoon Dog doesn't think so. He doesn't believe that a pure warrior would come to Tibing Mountain to challenge him just to sharpen his sword skills.

When Li Hanyi arrived at Rouxuan Town, Ma Sai, a guest from Tibing Mountain, stood at the entrance of the town to greet him.

He cupped his hands and asked, "Where do your distinguished guests come from?"

"Northern Calendar."

"Where to go?"

"Chess, Sword and Music House."

"What are you going to do?"

"Certify the Sword."

Ma Sai is obviously a Westerner with blue eyes, tall and thickly haired, but he wears a scholar's shirt from the Central Plains and speaks Northern Liang dialect.

He laughed and drew an iron sword from the waist of the guard behind him.

"I also want to invite you to witness the sword."

He stabbed with his sword, the flag on the city wall trembled, and the north wind suddenly blew to Rouxuan Town.

Li Hanyi didn't draw his sword, he just used the hilt to gently move forward, and the wind stopped.

The iron sword broke into two pieces.

The row of guards behind him made no sound, but their footsteps moved, forming an encirclement.

Marseille stopped them and asked, "May I ask your distinguished guest's name?"

"Li Hanyi."

Ma Sai's expression changed instantly: "Xueyun Sword Immortal?"

"It's me."

Li Hanyi stood at the entrance of the town. His white clothes had been dyed khaki yellow by the sand and dust. His bamboo hat and gray scarf covered most of his face. Only a pair of eyes were exposed, like ice and snow.

"Please wait."

Maasai retreated to the town and ran towards the mountains.

Tibingshan is one of the four major sects in Beimang. In addition to the 90,000 Rouran cavalry, there are also 18 brave men and 100 slaves carrying the tripod.

There is a deputy mountain master, three peak masters and three guest ministers under the mountain master. The three peak masters are also the military leaders of the three towns of Laohuai, Rouxuan and Wuchuan.

All guest officials are under the direct management of the mountain owner.

Behind Rouxuan Town is the highest Wula Peak in the Rouran Mountains. On the top of the peak is the luxurious Tibingshan Palace. The level of luxury in the palace is comparable to that of the Beimang Palace.

At this time, the fifth raccoon dog was discussing important matters with the deputy mountain master Gong Pu and the three peak masters.

Mandu Latu is a purebred Beimang man. He has dark and thick curly hair, and his face is tanned black and red by the sun on the grassland.

He said dissatisfied: "Her Majesty the Empress asked us to prepare for war, but she did not give us food, grass or money."

Another peak leader, Su De, is of mixed race, with blond hair and blue eyes from the Western Regions. He comes from the same hometown as guest Masai.

The third one, O Yila, comes from the northernmost Aquarius State. It is said that his father was a guard of the royal court, and he was born after an affair with a palace maid.

O Yila shaved his head, leaving only a braid on the back of his head and a string of huge wolf fangs hanging from his neck.

Hearing Mandu Latu's words, On Yila disagreed: "The purpose of fighting is to rob the people of the Central Plains. The people of the Central Plains have a lot of money and food."

"But who to hit?"

Gong Pu was a little puzzled. The military order to prepare for war had been issued for half a month, but the empress did not say who to fight.

Su De spoke: "No matter which side we fight, the Rouran Cavalry will be the vanguard."

"nonsense!"

O Yila shouted: "This time when I go out, I want to stand on the throne of the Emperor of the Central Plains and pee."

Everyone laughed.

Ma Sai came in and reported: "Mountain Master, a Northern Li man has come to the town. He is passing through Tibing Mountain and wants to demonstrate his sword with the mountain master."

The fifth raccoon dog asked casually: "Who is it?"

He was sitting on the dragon chair in the middle of the hall, dressed in purple clothes and wearing a golden crown, like an emperor.

"Xueyun Sword Immortal Li Hanyi of Northern Li."

"The name sounds like a girl?"

O also piqued interest.

Ma Sai replied cautiously: "She is a woman, but she is skilled in swordsmanship. It is said that she is one of the best swordsmen in Northern Li."

"You lost?"

The fifth raccoon dog frowned. At this juncture, a swordsman came from Northern Li. Is he here to spy on the military situation, or does he have ulterior motives?

Marseille became frightened and said, "Please punish the mountain owner."

"Go and receive your punishment of thirty lashes."

"Thank you, Lord Mountain."

The rules of Tibingshan have always been very strict. As a guest, with a generous salary, you will naturally have to solve the corresponding troubles. If you fail to complete the task and lose the face of Tibingshan, the punishment will not be light.

The three hundred whips of Tibing Mountain are not ordinary riding whips, but thorn whips. A unique thorn from the Rouran Mountains is inserted into the riding whip. After the thorns are dried, the thorns are harder than iron.

With a whip, the skin and flesh were torn apart.

The whip was raised and the flesh flew out.

You can see the bones after a few lashes, but no one can withstand a few lashes until they reach the Vajra state.

Su De looked at his back with sympathy. Ma Sai had just entered the Vajra state, and his skin had peeled off after thirty lashes.

O Yila had no intention of discussing the matter anymore and shouted: "Mountain Master, let me go!"

The fifth raccoon dog nodded: "Bring her here first."
