royal robes

Chapter 1016
Li Hongji and Venerable Bailian are very happy today. In fact, they have been worried these days. If this matter is not completed, and they lose a boatload of gold, silver and jewels, even if they return to Southern Tang, they will not be punished. It will also be looked down upon.

Although Li Hongji is habitually shameless, he really wants some face in front of his father, Li Jing. He hopes that his father can see his changes and recognize his efforts.If this matter goes wrong... Li Hongji really doesn't know how to face his father.

Li Hongji has also figured out one thing now. His father, Emperor Li Jing, is also an idiot, but he is a very dedicated emperor. , and finally kept the Southern Tang Dynasty for so many years.

Li Jing's efforts were not in vain, but what he did was wrong.Li Jing is definitely a prodigal son, his behavior is no different from that of Chai Rong, that is, he squandered the money left by his ancestors and used the money to conquer useless places.

Of course, Chai Rong is much better than Li Jing. He is squandering the money Guo Wei left behind, but he is attacking useful places.As long as the Southern Tang Dynasty is destroyed, the Great Zhou will seize the entire Central Plains without any obstacles, and there is no other force that can rival the Great Zhou.

It's a pity that Li Jing had many opportunities to win the world, but he didn't seize the opportunities.Li Hongji swore to himself that he would never make the same mistake.

In fact, Chai Rong also had this opportunity, and it was an opportunity to easily win the world, but it may not be that he gave it up by himself.

Li Hongji felt that Zongxin disappeared because of Chai Rong's extermination of Buddha. After all, Master Zongxin was a monk, and Chai Rong's extermination of Buddha for casting copper coins offended Master Zongxin.Therefore, Chai Rong gave up the opportunity to seize the whole world in order to covet a small profit in front of him.

This is indeed an opportunity for the Southern Tang Dynasty. If Master Zongxin has been supporting him, let alone attacking Shouzhou and seizing the country of the Southern Tang Dynasty.Even if the world is pacified, it is not difficult to counterattack the Khitans.

Li Hongji thought for a while, at least this time he hired Taoist Wu Yazi for half a year.It's not that he has to leave after this mission is over.

When the time comes, buy a mansion for Daoist Wu Yazi near Jinling East Palace, and let him and Xiang'er live there.At any rate, there is a flat there, so it's fine to come back occasionally for a few days, as long as Taoist Wu Yazi comes back, immediately take him out to play, and learn knowledge while playing.

This method is indeed good, of course, this is something to do later.When Daoist Wu Yazi was around, I learned a little more from him, because what he taught was indeed very useful.

If Yeluzhen knew that Li Hongji could learn the knowledge of Master Zongxin for only such a small amount of money, he would be mad.He would definitely scold Tianya for being worthless, but Yeluzhen can only scold a few words at most, what else can he do?It is estimated that there is only a higher price for Tianya to teach himself.

Drinking and eating meat is one of the things people in the Jianghu like to do most.Regardless of Venerable Bailian's age, he is unambiguous in eating meat.Tian Ya is a growing boy who can put anything in his mouth.

Originally, Li Hongji was very private, but after Tianya's training, he has now learned to hold a large piece of meat, and he no longer uses a cup when drinking. The bowl is too small, and he often drinks from a jar.

Only Xiang'er is more private, after all, she is a daughter, although Xiang'er is used to the way of Jianghu people, she still behaves very privately in front of Tian Ya.Occasionally, when there are only Tianya and Xiang'er, she will be bold, but Xiang'er can't embarrass Tianya like this in front of outsiders.

A gust of wind swept through the clouds, and the three men patted their bellies in satisfaction.Tianya was used to this kind of appetite, but for Li Hongji and Venerable Bailian, it was entirely because they were happy that the matter was resolved, and their appetite naturally increased after there was no pressure.

"Finish? I haven't seen you for a few years. Your appetite has increased a lot, but your martial arts haven't improved. How did your master teach you?"

Everyone felt their backs go numb immediately, the four present were all martial arts practitioners, and their martial arts were not bad, especially because of Wu Yazi's advanced martial arts skills.But no one felt the existence of this person, he just appeared and spoke behind Wu Yazi's back like this, this person's skill was even higher than Dugu Xingyue.

They are all martial arts practitioners, so there is nothing they don’t understand.In the realm of Youzhou, the only person with higher martial arts skills than Dugu Xingyue is... Yelvzhen.

Tian Ya turned his head slowly, and it really was Ye Luzhen.Still in dark robes, with sword eyebrows and tiger eyes, long hair without a trace of variegation, and looks like a man in his 30s, without a trace of aging.This is younger than when Tian Ya saw Ye Luzhen for the first time, and his skill has improved so much that Tian Ya can't compare with him at all.

Tian Ya swallowed his saliva and said, "Uncle Yelu, why did you come to Youzhou?"

"I've got nothing to do, so I'll lead my troops to Cangzhou to wreak havoc. Although I can't attack Cangzhou for the time being, it feels good to stand at the gate of Cangzhou and look at Fu Yanqing's anxious eyes. By the way, I'll also let the Central Plains people appreciate how young I am again. , do you know how great it feels to regain your youthfulness?”

"Uncle Yelu, you and I have no grievances or enmities, if you have anything to do, go to my master, Xiaoyaozi, and don't make things difficult for me, a junior."

Tianya must say these words before Yelvzhen, otherwise Yelvzhen will be in trouble if he says Zongxin's name.Although it is already very dangerous at this time, Tianya is a very dedicated person and will seize any conditions that are beneficial to him.

Yeluzhen looked around, then nodded, probably guessing what Tianya meant.He really deserves to be an apprentice from Zong Xinjiao, and he also likes to play this game.

Yeluzhen said: "You don't have to worry, if I want to kill you, you will have no chance to eat the second chicken leg. Xiaoyaozi and I are also friends and we have no grudges. You should be very clear about this. I am Passing by suddenly, I felt a familiar smell here, but I saw you when I came in, so I came here to say hello."

"A familiar smell?"

"Yes, it's your master's aura, but it's not from your master. That aura is in your arms, call Xiao Jinjin out and let me see it." Yeluzhen knew Zongxin had a cat a long time ago. Zeshui Beast, Zeshui Beast is a supernatural being, and the smell on its body is naturally different from that of ordinary people.

Only Yeluzhen could sense the scent of Xiao Jinjin, because he had also interacted with the water beast.It wasn't Xiao Jinjin, but the water beast that Guo Wei had killed.

Back then, when the concubine Yaochi was raising the water beast, Shi Jingtang had formed an alliance with Khitan.During that time, Yeluzhen had contact with Zeshui Beast, and they liked each other very much.It's just that Zeshui Beast doesn't like to be with people, it just likes to bully small animals, and the person who raised it is Yaochi, so it didn't become Yeluzhen's mount.

Xiao Jinjin poked out a small head from Tianya's arms and looked at Yeluzhen. He also knew this person, and had seen him more than once.But unlike Zhao Kuangyin, this person posed too great a threat to it, so Xiao Jinjin did not go over to say hello, but just looked at him in Tianya's arms.

Yeluzhen chuckled and said, "I'm afraid it will take another two or three hundred years to become a mount. It's too small now."

"That is to say, the reason I established a good relationship with Xiao Jinjin was to use him as a mount. As a result, after raising him for several years, his body has hardly changed, and he is still so small. My efforts for so many years have been in vain."

"Take it easy, do you know how safe it is to have a swamp beast on your body? Even if I was bitten by a swamp beast, it would take a while to recover, and the pain caused by the poison is absolutely impossible to eliminate easily You are lucky to have such a good master, otherwise, who would be willing to give the water beast to others? And the handle of your knife, every time I see it, I feel scared..."

Yelu really didn't lie at all, the water swamp beast is the most poisonous thing in the world, even if this water swamp beast is still small, being bitten by it is not a joke.

Experts at Yeluzhen's level have strong resistance to severe poisons, and they also have a plan to barely fight after being poisoned.But if Yeluzhen was bitten by the Zeshui Beast, he would not dare to fight with all his strength, he must use part of his internal energy to suppress the toxicity.

Of course, there is also the unreal illusion on Tianya's waist, which is an absolute attack without any defensive means. The blade can be freely switched between nothingness and reality. This kind of heaven-defying weapon can kill anyone with one strike as long as it is used properly. , the body-protecting Gang Qi is useless at all. The blade can pass directly through the body and manifest its entity inside the body, so this knife is relatively invincible.

Seeing these two treasures, Yeluzhen was extremely envious, but as the Khitan national teacher and secretly the father of the Khitan Emperor Yelujing, Yeluzhen certainly would not grab these two things.

Although Yelu can really be shameless, he is not afraid of Tianya.But Yeluzhen is still worried about Zong Xin, and now he hasn't seen Zong Xin for a while, how far has his martial arts progressed?No one can tell, and sooner or later Zong Xin's martial arts will surpass him, Yeluzhen firmly believes in this, so he doesn't want to offend people like Zong Xin for something.

Now the relationship between Yeluzhen and Zong Xin can be regarded as friends at least. If they meet Zong Xin, there is no problem in drinking and talking or even asking him for a favor.

Although there is no communication, there is no hatred, and they have cooperated with each other a few times. Yeluzhen doesn't want to destroy the current state.

Li Hongji and Venerable Bailian had long guessed that Daoist Wu Yazi's sword was extraordinary, but they didn't expect that it could make a master like Yeluzhen feel nervous?What kind of sword is this?

Although the two were curious, they knew that Daoist Wu Yazi didn't want to say anything, not to mention that now that Yeluzhen was by his side, Li Hongji was the Crown Prince of the Southern Tang Dynasty, so he didn't want to say anything more.It would be terrible if Yelu really knew his true identity.

Yeluzhen said: "Hey~~boy, what did you come to Youzhou for? And you brought these people with you, are they all your friends?"

Xiang'er immediately said: "Uncle Yelu, I am the wife of Daoist Priest Wu Yazi, these two are my husband's friends, let's go here to buy some things."

Yeluzhen and Tianya both nodded secretly, this girl is married to the right one.If Tianya's self-introduction seems a little fake at this time, it is impossible for Yeluzhen to take the initiative to ask Tianya's current name, so he hesitated just now.

Unexpectedly, Xiang'er answered immediately, which also let Yeluzhen know that Tianya should be called Wuyazi now.Of course, this is also expected by Yeluzhen, after all, his attire is obviously a Taoist priest, and he must not be called Tianya anymore.
