Xiong Mengyan leaned on the railing alone and looked ahead.
Her clothes are as white as snow, her green silk hair is blowing on her face, and she can see the fairy spirit fluttering from a distance.
With her charming eyes and flaming red lips, she looks like a demon!
She was searching for Feng Jiuxiao's figure, but countless men on the river were staring at her.
She was looking for her own scenery, but she didn't know that she had also become a beautiful scenery in the eyes of others.
We are about to arrive at Wuxia Pass, and Feng Jiuxiao's boat has already docked. He is probably hanging out with Yuan Zishan at this time, right? Her nails have sunk deeply into her palms!
Tuoba Xuan asked Zhang Zilu, "Let's not stop. Ahead of us is Wuxia Pass. After Wuxia Pass, we will reach the boundary of the Great Zhou Dynasty. This section of the ship is too dense and the passage is extremely slow. It is estimated that we will not be able to pass it in a day."
Why don't we hurry up?"
Zhang Zilu looked at Xiong Mengyan on the bow of the boat and was a little confused, "National Master, let me discuss it with Miss Xiong. After all, we are traveling together, so it would be inappropriate for me to suddenly make the decision on my behalf."
Tuoba Xuan smiled and said, "I understand, you can go ahead."
Zhang Zilu came behind Xiong Mengyan and looked at the figure dressed in white that made people dream. He closed his eyes to control his emotions, then opened his eyes and said: "Miss Xiong, what Tuoba Imperial Master means is that we don't stop the ship.
Passed. If you have no objections, I will reply to him."
Xiong Mengyan was silent for a long time, and then said: "Since he is also going to Beijing, and we are also going to Beijing, it doesn't matter who comes first. You tell Imperial Master Tuoba, let's go!"
Zhang Zilu felt relieved and said with a smile: "Okay!"
As long as she decides something, Duan Muyan and Wang Sheng will naturally not refute it. Although she "states" that she will withdraw from the competition, it is just a show of goodwill to Duan Muyan and Wang Sheng. In the future, when she has achieved great success, who in the world will still
Dare to stop yourself from marrying Xiong Mengyan? Xiong Qiangu can't do it! His step back is just to take a step forward!

Yuan Zishan opened "Laozi's Five Thousand Essays" and looked at the opening text: "Tao can be Tao, but it is not Tao; it can be named, but it is not named. The beginning of the nameless world is the mother of all things. Therefore, there is always no desire to see its wonder; there is always desire.
Let’s see how it works. The two come from the same place but have different names, and they are both called xuan. Mystery is mysterious, and it is the door to all mysteries.”
She asked her boss casually, "How can I sell this book?"
The stall owner noticed that the patron had a strange appearance, so he took a second look.
Pang Shishi coughed, "My young master is asking you something!"
The stall owner suddenly woke up from a dream and said quickly: "This ancient book should be the late Qin Dynasty edition, so it is a little expensive, only five taels of silver."
Yuan Zishan remained calm, "Are you bluffing me? When the First Emperor burned all the books in the world, how could you get such a unique copy?"
The stall owner's expression remained unchanged, "Sir, this is really the only copy of the Qin Dynasty. If I lie, I will be struck by thunder!" Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, a dark cloud gathered inexplicably above his head, and a bolt of lightning struck down, right in the middle.
There was a willow tree next to him. The willow tree was quite thick but it was not broken. However, it chopped off a few thick branches and hit the scholar!
At the same time, fallen leaves fell like rain, and the stall owner suddenly turned pale with fear!
Yuan Zishan sneered: "You still said you didn't lie?"
The stall owner looked up at the sky and was dumbfounded again. It was cloudless at this time. Could it be that he was dazzled just now? But the fallen leaves on the ground were really in front of him! He said incoherently: "Young Master, please take this book away.
I gave it to you for free."
"Really? How bad is that?"
"Okay, why not? This kind of ancient and rare book must be given to a destined person like the young master!"
"Did I really take it?"
"Really take it away!" the stall owner said firmly. He kept glancing at the sky to see if there was any more thunder striking down!
He didn't know what happened until the four people walked away. He seemed to be having a dream. Why was there lightning on such a sunny day? Did God really want to punish him? He quickly clasped his palms together
, murmured: "By God, this little guy is just bragging when he is confused for a moment. In order to make a living, you, my lord, have a lot of knowledge. Say goodbye to me and the little guy!"
The sky is still so blue, a vast expanse of blue!
Yuan Zishan put her hands behind her back, holding the book "Laozi's Five Thousand Essays" in her hands. She glanced at Feng Jiuxiao and said, "It's just a book. Is it going to cause such a big stir?"
Feng Jiuxiao said solemnly: "Since he said that if he lied, he would be struck by lightning, how could I make him break his promise and get fat at the right time? Moreover, helping others is the foundation of happiness."
Pang Shiwu said: "Brother's Thunder Control Technique has become more and more wonderful, to the point where he can do whatever he wants!"
Feng Jiuxiao said: "I will teach you when you reach the peak of the Glazed Realm!"
Pang Shiwu said: "Great!"
Chili frowned and said, "If five taels is too expensive, give me four taels. If four taels doesn't work, just give me three taels. It's just a book. You can scare people with thunder, but you are still a great hero!"
Feng Jiuxiao waved her hands and said, "Hey! I'm not a great hero, I'm just me, an ordinary me. Besides, that book is worth more than five taels of silver."
Pepper's eyes widened, "Really?"
"When will your young lady enter Baoshan alone?"
Pepper's eyes widened and she asked Yuan Zishan, "Miss, is it true?"
Yuan Zishan rolled her eyes at Feng Jiuxiao, "Your ears are itchy again, right?" Then he smiled sweetly at Chili Pepper, "Silly girl, when will your young lady fall in love with a book worth five taels of silver?"
Chili was right. Five taels of silver was expensive, but in the eyes of the lady, it was nothing.
"Then what's so great about this book?" Chili asked curiously.
Yuan Zishan looked around and saw that most of the people around her were ordinary people. There were not many Jianghu people. Then she leaned into Chili Pepper's ear and whispered: "This is a martial arts secret book!"
Chili Pepper was startled and whispered: "Another martial arts secret book? Miss, you are too good, aren't you? You can find a secret book just by wandering around?"
Yuan Zishan accidentally got a painting last time, and it turned out to be the long-lost magic trick of Huanyin Finger. Unexpectedly, she found another martial arts secret book in an ancient book this time.
Chili whispered: "Then what kind of martial arts is this secret book?"
Yuan Zishan said: "Xuanyin Magical Skill."
"Is it great?"
"Awesome. But the other half is missing."
"Is this just half of it?"
"It can't be said to be half of it. This Xuanyin Magic is complete. I'm talking about the Chiyang Magic. Xuanyin and Chiyang are from the same source. It would be great if I could practice these two magic skills at the same time. I have Yin.
If my qi is too strong, I should practice masculine martial arts appropriately, which will help my own yin and yang balance."
"Then if you practice both yin and yang, will there be any conflict?"
"Conflicts are unavoidable, but I can practice step by step without doing it too hastily. Therefore, it will not cause the yin and yang in the body to fight, and water and fire are incompatible. Only the balance of yin and yang is the right way." She was a little melancholy.
"Then do you want to practice this Xuanyin magic skill or not?"
"Take a look first before talking. If it suits you, practice it. If it doesn't suit you, leave it alone. By the way, Chili Pepper, do you want to practice it?"
"Miss, I don't know a few words, how do you want me to practice?"
"You can learn to read first. The key is whether you have such a strong will in your heart. If you do, then there will be no difficulty. If you don't have the will, it will be very difficult."
"Not yet."
"Okay, let's talk about it later."
"Eh? What happened in front?"
I saw several boats lying across the middle of the river hundreds of feet ahead, as if someone was pulling something up from the middle of the river.
Pepper asked: "What are they doing?"
Feng Jiuxiao's eyes flickered, her brows furrowed, and she said in a deep voice: "They are preparing to block the waterway!"
I saw dozens of soldiers on several boats in the middle of the river struggling to fish up a thick iron chain from the bottom of the river. Then hundreds of people appeared on both sides of the river, pulling the two ends of the iron chain and dragging it backwards. A thick iron chain
Instantly across the river.
There are huge windlass fixed at the foot of the mountain on both sides of the river. The iron chain is pulled back a little, and the windlass becomes entangled. The iron chain finally hangs a foot above the river and stops pulling. It is full of gleaming barbs!
If a ship breaks in, it will be easily torn apart!
A dozen bamboo arrow towers and towers were launched on each side of the bank. It was estimated that there were pulleys underneath. After the positions were fixed, they were lined up along the bank, with eight on each side.
Each arrow tower is more than ten feet high, and there are three longbowmen stationed on each tower. Standing high, you can see far.
There are several soldiers under each tower who are responsible for placing feather arrows on the halyard to ensure that the archers above have a steady stream of feather arrows.
"Are you afraid that someone will break through?" Pang Shiwu asked.
"I guess it has something to do with the young man you killed." Feng Jiuxiao thought in her mind.
"Humph, if they dare to stop me, I'll kill them too!" Pang Shiwu was a little depressed.
"You can tell at a glance that it is a temporary checkpoint defense line. Their real Wuxia Pass defense line should be several miles away. It is best for us to adapt to the situation and not forcefully break through or attract their attention."
"I know, I'm just talking."
Tuoba Xuanzheng told Murong Chi and others that they should speed up and rush to the Dazhou waterway as soon as possible, but they heard Murong Chi frown and say: "What's going on ahead, the waterway is blocked?"
