The martial arts journey begins with The King's Ambition

Chapter 153 Colluding with Mongolia
Xie Hu has a cautious personality. He didn't let anyone see the dragon-slaying knife and Yitian sword that Xie Xun gave him. Instead, he went to learn some smelting techniques by himself.He melted the knife and sword, and then asked Xie Xun how to deal with this big iron lump.

Xie Xun knew very well how precious this piece of black iron was, and it was impossible to just throw it away, so he asked Xie Hu to take out a small piece and make a Persian scimitar for Dai Qisi, named it "Poppy", and let Xie Hu take out the rest. Tiger builds whatever he likes.

Xie Hu knew that although Xie Xun didn't use weapons very much, it was not that he didn't understand. He had learned sword skills from Xie Xun.

Xie Hu divided the remaining black iron into two, and made a Miao Dao and a long sword, which are lighter than the original Dragon Slaying Dao and Yi Tian Sword, and are more convenient to use.

Xie Xun named the sword "Magic Tooth" and the sword "Dragon Tooth".From then on, there will be no more Dragon Slaying Saber and Yitian Sword in the world.

Xie Hu didn't covet these two magical weapons, and returned them to Xie Xun.

Xie Xun said: "I don't need a weapon, so you can keep it for yourself."

Xie Hu said: "Brother, when you become the emperor, this sword is Shangfang's sword, and this saber is the saber you use to command the army."

Xie Xun was taken aback when he heard this, and secretly sighed that Xie Hu had a heart.

Xie Xun still handed the saber to Xie Hu, saying: "You are my saber."

Xie Xun kept the sword and gave it to Lu Zhixi.

The Mingjiao suffered heavy losses this time, but the main losses were the lower-level personnel. Although the higher-ups were also injured, only Xie Xun himself was the most injured.

Now that everyone has recovered from their injuries, Xie Xun began to think about those people in the palace who know Shaolin Kung Fu.

Shaolin is located in the north, so it is not within the sphere of influence of Mingjiao.

Xie Xun planned to make full preparations this time, and then went to Dadu, he had to clarify this matter.This matter made him feel like a thorn in his throat, he couldn't sleep or eat if he didn't understand Shaolin's position clearly.

Xie Xun mobilized all the masters he could mobilize, even Yang Xiao who hadn't participated in Jianghu battles for many years was mobilized.Not only Xie Hu, but also Wudang Five Heroes who are closely related to him, Kongtong and Huashan are all masters.There was also a special message sent to Zhongnan Mountain, and Yang Shou was also called by Xie Xun to help him.

The affairs of Guangmingding were handed over to Xie Wuji, who was only 14 years old, assisted by Liu Ji and Song Lian, and sisters Lu Zhiqing and Lu Zhixi stayed behind to escort him.

Xie Wuji is Xie Xun's eldest son and only son. He has been practicing literature and martial arts under Lu Zhiqing's strict discipline since he was a child.

Lu Zhiqing devoted a lot of effort to Xie Wuji and hired many husbands for him.Xie Wuji's martial arts practiced Xie Xun's Nine Suns Divine Art and Dragon Elephant Prajna Art, and now he has a good skill.

Xie Xun didn't say he was very homely, but he really rarely left Xie Wuji.It can be said that Xie Wuji has always been by Xie Xun's side, accepting Xie Xun's words and deeds.

People in ancient times were very precocious, Yue Fei was already a father at the age of 16, Xie Wuji was more serious than Xie Xun in character, he was rigid in everything he did, like a little adult.

In the winter of the second year of Zhiyuan (1336), Xie Xun came to Dadu again. This time he was the most prepared, and he was sure to turn Dadu upside down.

Wei Yixiao is familiar with Dadu, and it has been less than a year since he left Dadu, recalling the adventure half a year ago, it seems like a lifetime ago.The forces that he had carefully arranged in Dadu for many years were uprooted.Although the arrangement had been made earlier this time, it was no longer so handy, but it was not difficult to hide the whereabouts.

Xie Xun didn't stop there, and went to Ruyang Palace that night.

Xie Xun entered the palace alone. He didn't come here this time to kill people, but to find out the origins of the masters in the palace who are proficient in Shaolin Kung Fu. If there are too many people, it will be easy to be exposed.

Xie Xun's body is as light as a swallow, and he jumps over the roof like walking on flat ground.The palace is not big, and it hasn't been long since Chahan was ennobled, and the whole palace is not luxurious.

Xie Xun came to a hall, which was still brightly lit.

Xie Xun leaned in the shadows outside the window, listening attentively.

I only heard someone inside say: "It's your blessing that the prince likes your martial arts. You betrayed the prince, which is a capital crime. Now you are given a chance to live, but you don't cherish it. There are many good martial arts in the world. What does the prince want?" It's not easy to get, and it's not necessary for your martial arts."

Xie Xun immediately recognized that it was Han Qianye's voice.This kid is still by Chahan's side, it seems that he wants to gain someone's martial arts.

Only one person said weakly: "If we really show our martial arts, I am afraid it will be our death."

Han Qianye said: "The brain is not stupid, but even if you don't die, why bother to suffer so much flesh and blood? Do you really think that your martial arts prince must have it?"

The man said again: "I won't say it."

Han Qianye chuckled, and said unhurriedly: "Okay, let's take it slowly, it's been so long, and we're not in a hurry for a day or two. Come and take it down."

There was a sound of iron chains "cracking" and then two people were chained and taken out of the hall.

Xie Xun took a look from afar with the help of the light, and it was indeed Lu Zhangke and Hebi Weng.

Xie Xun had never spoken to these two people, so he didn't know their voices, but he had fought many times, even in the dark, Xie Xun's eyes were like a torch, and he quickly recognized them.

Xie Xun knew in his heart that the two escaped at a critical moment, but they were still captured by Chahan, and now they squeezed out the last bit of value before dying.

I heard Han Qianye continue: "I didn't expect these two people to be so stubborn. The iron rope pierced through the lute bone. The taste must be very good. I don't know what's the point of them being alive."

Chahan said: "It's okay. Don't be in a hurry to kill them, it's good to torture them slowly like this. It's just two useless people."

Another voice next to him said: "They can't persist forever. The time is short now, and the time is long. Even if he is a man of iron, he will also seek a quick death."

"It's Cheng Kun!"

Xie Xun is very familiar with this voice, he is still in the palace.But listening to his voice, his injury still hasn't healed.This kind of internal injury is not easy to heal, and it may not heal for a lifetime.

Chahan asked, "Master, how is your injury?"

Cheng Kun said: "It's much better now. Fortunately, I have the Shaolin Nine Suns Kung Fu this time, otherwise it will only be worse now, maybe I would have died in the first place."

Han Qianye said: "The Shaolin Nine Suns Kung Fu is really incomparably mysterious. I was frostbitten in the cold pond, but thanks to the master who saved me and taught me the Nine Suns Kung Fu, now I can avoid hidden dangers. I believe the master will recover soon."

Only then did Xie Xun know that Han Qianye was rescued by Cheng Kun.Both of them hated Mingjiao, so naturally they hit it off.It's just that Cheng Kun took refuge in the imperial court, and he knew it a long time ago, but he didn't expect Han Qianye to also seek refuge in the imperial court.

Chahan said: "That's right, I also feel that I have improved a lot recently. It is much better than those two guys' Xuanming God's Palm. It's just that Xuanming's God's Palm is still a unique skill. It's a pity to be buried with these two guys." .”

Cheng Kun smiled and said: "That's right, it is not a pity for these two people to die. If the Xuanming God's Palm is lost along with them, the regret should be their masters, and it has nothing to do with us. Just look at it if you get it. It’s nothing. Besides, my Nine Yang Kungfu can restrain the Xuanming Divine Palm, even if they hand it over, we might not be able to practice it. It’s just that these two people betrayed the prince, and torturing them is their punishment.”

It was only then that Xie Xun realized that Chahan didn't have much interest in Xuanming God's Palm, and mainly wanted to torture them to vent his anger.

Chahan asked, "How is the soldier training recently?"

Han Qianye said: "Everything is going smoothly. However, it is not easy to practice advanced martial arts. These soldiers are of average aptitude, and they can barely practice the outer martial arts of the Vajra Sect brothers. If you want to practice inner martial arts, The vast majority of people have no clue at all. It is not easy to arm an army of martial arts masters."

Xie Xun was surprised that Chahan actually had such an idea, which could really make up for the weakness of the small Mongolian population.Originally, the current Mongolian cavalry is already extremely lethal. If everyone can practice high-strength martial arts, they will really be invincible in the world.

Xie Xun also had this idea. Whether it was Mingjiao or Xie Hu's subordinates, he popularized the first two levels of Dragon Elephant Prajna Kungfu and trained an extremely elite army, but he wanted to train them all to become martial arts masters It is too difficult.It is just to select some with better aptitude to teach internal skills, but the number of people is much smaller.

This kind of martial arts master needs one-on-one training, not large-scale training.

Xie Xun actually taught martial arts to many people, but his official disciple is only Zhuang Zheng.

But even if they can't all become martial arts masters, their combat effectiveness is still impressive.

This King Ruyang is indeed a strong enemy.

Chahan said: "Hurry up and train. Master, what happened to the matter that I asked you to go to Shaolin for help? Don't blame me for urging you every day. On the battlefield, our Mongolian elite soldiers are not afraid of anyone, but in the martial arts, we desperately need a Those who can stand up to Xie Xun. Nowadays, only Shaolin can stand up to Xie Xun."

Xie Xun was overjoyed that he really heard such useful news.

Cheng Kun said: "My lord, you are welcome. It is a poor monk's honor to serve you. The poor monk has repeatedly complained to the master master, but the master master still refuses to bring the whole Shaolin to help the prince. , only willing to send those brothers and sisters who have not walked around in the rivers and lakes."

At this time, Xie Xun was able to conclude that Shaolin colluded with the imperial court, and it was definitely not an individual's private behavior, but was approved and even supported by Abbot Kongwen.

Xie Xun continued to listen.

Chahan said: "What's the use of having more of your brothers? Are they enough for Xie Xun to kill? Mingjiao keeps weakening Buddhism. When they rule the world, you Shaolin will never end well. If you don't want to contribute now, we Even if the Mongols really withdraw from the Central Plains, there is still a vast area for us to survive, and our population is small. Wherever you Shaolin can retreat, don’t regret it then.”
