The Song Dynasty was the king for thirteen years before he knew that he was Tianlong.

Chapter 6 Tianlong? Tianlong!
Huo Sijiu in front was surprised, not knowing what he said wrong, and looked hurriedly at Mr. Qu.

Mr. Qu was familiar with Zhao Ti. The owner of the Ding Family Vegetarian Tea House and he both knew Zhao Ti's true identity. It was not easy to ask directly about the reason, so he just said, "Junior brother, tell me the story again for me, young master."

Huo Sijiu followed his instructions and started from the beginning. Finally, he said, "In the martial arts world today, the most popular people are two young heroes. There is a famous saying to describe them: Qiao Feng in the north and Murong in the south."

Zhao Ti's face was gloomy and he took a deep breath but didn't say anything this time.

Seeing this, Huo Sijiu continued to speak carefully: "The Qiao Feng of the North refers to the current leader of the Beggars' Sect, the Great Hero Qiao Feng, and the Murong of the South refers to Murong Fu, the son of the Murong family in Gusu. Both of them have superb abilities and their martial arts are superb and perfect..."

Although Zhao Ti did not speak, at this moment, it was as if lightning exploded in his mind, thunder rumbled in the sky, North Qiao Feng and South Murong, North Qiao Feng and South Murong, how could there be a North Qiao Feng and a South Murong? !
Xiao Feng is okay, he really existed in history, but he never went to the Song Dynasty.

As for Murong Fu, his ancestors Murong Chui, Murong Bao, and Murong Ke did exist, but where did Murong Longcheng, Murong Bo, and himself come from?
Zhao Ti's heart was churning, his mind was in turmoil, and he was thinking secretly, could it be that... this is actually Tianlong?

If it is Tianlong, what Zhou Tong said about Emperor Taizong going south to wipe out the martial arts sects and families and collecting martial arts secrets is very likely to be true!
But why hadn't he found it in the palace for so many years? There were only the rudimentary internal skills that the guards had learned? And these internal skills were also brought into the palace by the guards themselves, not originally available in the palace.

So was the secret book destroyed by previous emperors, or was it hidden in some special secret place?

If Tianlong could practice martial arts to perfection, wouldn't he have a better chance of becoming the supreme being in the future?
Even if you have no choice but to take a risky move, it will increase your chances of winning! At the very least, if you have high martial arts skills, you can be safe and sound. There is no place in the world that you cannot go!

As for Tianlong, he had been learning martial arts since he was a child and had not gone wrong, but he had never seen any of those powerful martial arts. If he had sent people to look for them earlier, he might have already gained some!

Listening to Huo Sijiu continuing to talk about the deeds of Qiao Feng and Murong Fu, interspersed with some martial arts gossips, grudges and love, and the appearance of other characters, Zhao Ti was almost certain that this was Tianlong!
He slightly closed his eyes, even without drinking tea, listening to Huo Sijiu's voice in his ears, thinking about everything he had come into contact with since he was a child, looking for clues related to martial arts and the world of martial arts.

Bai Zhan and his companions had never seen Zhao Ti like this before, so they became cautious and looked out for danger.

After another half an hour, the reading session ended. Zhao Ti stood up and asked Bai Zhan to pay for the tea. He also rewarded Mr. Qu and Huo Sijiu, and then walked out of the teahouse.

The sky outside was still bright, and the crowds of people on Dongmen Street had dispersed a little. The shops and stalls on both sides were doing as well, but they were not as bustling as before.

Zhao Ti said to Zhou Tong who was following closely behind him, "Master Zhou, is what Mr. Huo said about the Jianghu true?"

Zhou Tong nodded: "Sir, it is basically true."

Zhao Ti turned around and looked at him: "Master Zhou also knows about Qiao Feng in the north and Murong in the south?"

Zhou Tong said: "I know that these two are the geniuses in the martial arts world today. Although they are young, their martial arts skills are extremely high. Even some famous veterans may not be their opponents."

Zhao Ti hesitated for a moment, walked a dozen steps, and asked again, "How does it compare to Master Zhou?"

Zhou Tong said with embarrassment: "Although I have never seen these two people, but from the rumors about them, I am afraid they are not a match for me."

Zhao Ti smiled and said, "Mr. Huo said that Qiao Feng and Murong Fu's martial arts are rare in the world, so it is normal that they cannot defeat them."

Zhou Tong said with shame: "It's really because I am a commoner and I am not good at learning..."

After a while, the group left the East Gate Street and went straight back to the Prince of Yan's Mansion. After entering the mansion, Zhao Ti went straight to the study and asked Bai Zhan and others to guard the door. Zhou Tong went in and looked at the other party. Zhao Ti thought for a few breaths and said, "This king has some questions that I would like to ask Master Zhou to solve."

Zhou Tongli said: "Your Majesty, please ask me. As long as I know everything, I will tell you everything."

Zhao Ti nodded and said, "Guangzu, please sit down and talk. Now that you are a member of the royal palace, you don't have to be so reserved. I have already reported your name to the court. You will be sent down by the court. From now on, you have a rank and don't have to wander around the world anymore."

Zhou Tong showed a grateful look. He had learned the arts of literature and martial arts and sold them to the emperor. What he said about not wanting to risk his life for others and wanting to be free was just hypocritical. However, there was no way to get promoted. He hurriedly bowed again and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. Your kindness is so great that I dare not refuse to die for you!"

Zhao Ti tapped the table with his fingers and said slowly, "Where did Guangzu hear that Emperor Taizong collected martial arts secret manuals and hid them in the palace? Are you convinced?"

Zhou Tong said, "Your Majesty, I am not speaking nonsense. If it were just an ordinary legend, I would not dare to brag about it. My master and the people of the Huashan Chen family have all told me about this old story."

"I know your master. He protected Lord Wang during his reforms and followed him around. How is he now?"

"Your Majesty, after the late Emperor passed away and Lord Wang was demoted, Master has been living in seclusion in Shaolin Temple in Songshan Mountain and has not seen the world. Even the common people haven't seen him for some years."

"Living in seclusion in Shaolin Temple in Songshan?" Zhao Ti narrowed his eyes. Master Zhou Tong was a famous person. People in later generations said that no king could be better than Xiang, no general could be better than Li, and no boxer could be better than Jin. The Jin here referred to his master Jin Tai.

He was born in a Shaolin temple in Songshan, and had close ties with Shaolin. He had served in the court as a military officer and had been stationed on the border between Song and Liao. When Wang Anshi was carrying out reforms, he was often assassinated, and was ordered by Emperor Shenzong to be protected. He had a nickname in the martial arts world called the Boxing King of the World, which shows how high his martial arts skills were.

"That's right. The master lives in seclusion in Shaolin. I have been there several times but was not able to see him."

"Since the old man said so, it should be true. Who are the Huashan Chen family?" Zhao Ti asked.

"Your Majesty, the Chen family is the Chen family of our ancestor Chen Tuan, who was defeated in a chess match at Mount Hua by Emperor Taizu and was invited to court four times by Emperor Taizu and Emperor Taizong."

"So it's that Chen family..." Zhao Ti pondered. When Emperor Taizu was wandering around the world, he was guided by Chen Tuan on the future direction and was grateful to him. As for whether Mount Hua was conquered or sealed at that time, Emperor Taizu did not explain it himself later. The Chen family had lived on Mount Hua since the founding of the Song Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, this person from the Chen family mentioned this to me during a casual chat, so... I don't think it's false."

"That should be true." Zhao Ti pondered in his heart. Both the Jintai and Chen families had close ties with the royal court of the Song Dynasty. This should be true, but why hadn't he found these secret books in the palace over the years?
"Guang Zu mentioned before that Li Xian is a skilled martial artist. Why don't you tell me more about it?"

"Your Majesty, Li Dahuan once had a nickname, 'Invincible in the North'. When he was sent out of the palace for errands, or even when he led troops, he never suffered a defeat in the martial arts world."

"What weapons and martial arts is he good at?" Zhao Ti asked curiously.

"Li Dahuan usually uses a sword, but he is even better at using a kind of flying red needle. His movements are ghostly and invisible, and his flying needles are swift and strange. Ordinary martial arts and weapons are simply difficult to resist."

Zhao Ti showed a strange expression when he heard this. He put his hands on the desk and leaned forward slightly to look at Zhou Tong: "Guang Zu said that Li Xian's flying needle with red thread is swift and strange, his body movements are ghostly and mysterious, and he can move without form?"
