Way of the heavens system

Chapter 21 Pegasus Ranch
After the three of them rested for a while, Li Chengyu filled the water bag, and then found a place to light a fire and boil it for emergencies.

The brothers and sisters of the Tang family took the opportunity to come up and beg for advice on martial arts. They depended on each other along the way, and they had long regarded Li Chengyu as their father and brother. When they faced the Yingui faction on the boat, they were extremely envious of the mysterious martial arts he performed, so they took the initiative. Ask for help.

Li Chengyu pitied them for experiencing the pain of the death of their parents at a young age, and the two brothers and sisters are well-behaved and clever. A method of strengthening muscles and bones, and even the formula of longevity is carefully taught, but this miraculous exercise is really miraculous, but the two little ones have never been able to get started after practicing according to the law.

Helpless, Li Chengyu had no choice but to think hard about the solution along the way, in order to lower the threshold for practicing this miraculous skill, but until now he still has no idea.

Although the three of them do not have the names of masters and apprentices, they are in fact masters and apprentices. The two young ones are ignorant and ignorant, and regard Li Chengyu as a closer father and brother, but Li Chengyu doesn't care about these things, and get along as before, one by one After correcting some doubts about the two small ones, I tidied up my bags before leaving.

Suddenly, he heard the sound of galloping horseshoes several miles away, and he was overjoyed: "Finally I can find someone to ask the way!" He quickly picked up the Tang brothers and sisters, unfolded his movements, and chased after the sound. Out of the mountain forest came a straight road, and at this time the sound of hooves approached, Li Chengyu looked up and saw thirteen riders, all in gray clothes, with a winged flying horse embroidered on the lapel, surrounded by five at the front and eight at the back. A group of horses came galloping, hooves rumbled, smoke and dust flew, and soon approached seven or eight feet away. Seeing someone blocking the middle of the road, the leading middle-aged man quickly raised his hand to signal, reined in and stopped the team.

"Who are you, why are you blocking our way?" The one-eyed man asked solemnly, thirteen pairs of sharp eyes seemed to be shooting arrows.

Li Chengyu knew he was in the wrong, so he cupped his fists and apologized and said, "I invite you, strong men. My three brothers and sisters were going to visit relatives in Chengdu. We lost our way on the way. We heard the sound of your horses' hooves, so we came here to ask for directions in a hurry. Please, Haihan." .”

The middle-aged burly man looked him up and saw that he was imposing and handsome, and although he was young, he carried an indescribable aura, like a son of a famous family, not like a scissors at all, so he let down his vigilance, He clasped his fists and replied, "This is in Jingling County. Not far away is the confluence of the Zhangshui River and Jushui River and the Yangtze River. It is still far away from Chengdu Mansion." He glanced at Li Chengyu's hand again. The brothers and sisters of the Tang family said: "But today the world is chaotic, there are many bandits and bandits, and the young master is walking alone like this, did the family feel at ease?"

Seeing his kind words, Li Chengyu thanked him with a smile: "Thank you for your concern, brother, I still have some ways to protect myself."

However, in the eyes of the middle-aged strong man, he was regarded as a fledgling boy who didn't know the heights of the sky and the earth, and he couldn't help being moved: "The mountains are high and the forests are dense, and the roads are difficult to walk. Now the sun is about to set. I am the second deacon of the Pegasus Ranch, Liu Zongdao. This time, I was ordered by our head to sell horse breeds. Now that the matter is completed, the ranch is nearby. Why don't you three brothers and sisters go back with us? Repair, and secondly, you can plan the follow-up route.”

Li Chengyu had guessed when he saw them dressed up before, but now he heard him talk about the Pegasus Ranch, and he couldn't help but sigh the mysterious fate. He didn't expect that they lost their way and came to the vicinity of the Pegasus Ranch. Lu Miaozi, who knows astronomy at the top and geography at the bottom, and who is known as the most skilled craftsman in the world, was quite interested, and immediately thanked him and agreed.

Liu Zongdao arranged a horse for them, and the three of them rode together with the team, chatting all the way through the narrow mountain road, and came to a hillside, where a rich grassland was exposed in front of them, more than a dozen of them Large and small lakes are scattered here and there, like a mirror dotted on the jasper. Groups of cattle and sheep gallop leisurely. The grassland is surrounded by undulating mountains, which are endless. The scene of Paradise.

Liu Zongdao pointed to a castle on a higher terrain in the northwest corner, and proudly introduced: "Brother Li, look, that is where our Pegasus Mountain City is located. It has been more than 160 years since the first generation of the owner built it!"

Li Chengyu followed the trend and saw a majestic castle, leaning on the cliffs, in front of it was a meandering river, and a suspension bridge was erected on the river. With his eyesight, he could see that the castle was all made of stone, with a simple and simple shape Rugged, with sentry boxes, turrets, and blockhouses in the fort, it is in harmony with the strategies of military strategists to defend the city. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

"It's really a majestic city!" Li Chengyu exclaimed, and everyone in the ranch and You Rongyan all looked pale, and Liu Zongdao also opened up the chatterbox and said: "The original owner of the farm was born as a military general at the end of Jin Dynasty. Build this mountain city according to the principles of military strategists, and encourage our clansmen to learn martial arts and spread martial arts, so that everyone in the pasture is brave and good at fighting, and thieves and bandits dare not invade at all."

While speaking, they came to the suspension bridge in the mountain city. The group of people were all familiar with the children guarding the bridge.

Because the Shang, Liang, Liu, Tao, Wu, Xu, and Luo clans live together in this ranch, and the children in the farm are all from these seven clans, and they are either acquainted with each other or brought in by in-laws, naturally it will not be too much. over guard.

After entering the fort, Liu Zongdao and others obviously relaxed a lot, and after a few more words, they handed over Li Chengyu and the three to a steward named Liang Qian to arrange the guest room in advance, and the family took the troops to return to their orders.

Spending the night in Pegasus Castle like this, the next morning, a maidservant knocked on the door and spread the word that it was the housekeeper Shang Zhen who invited him, so Li Chengyu met with him and repeated the previous remarks .

Seeing that Shang Zhen couldn't ask him anything else, and seeing that he was young and had two children with him, and didn't look like a bandit, he treated him as an ordinary guest, ordered his attendants to entertain him well, and then left in a hurry to deal with other matters. up.

Li Chengyu didn't care too much, returned to the guest house and began to recall the original work, remembering that Lu Miaozi should live in the small building on the back mountain, but he is new here, and he is not familiar with the terrain in the castle, not to mention there are ranch children patrolling It's not easy to search rashly during the day, we can only wait until night to investigate again by relying on the brilliant lightness kung fu and breath restraint technique.

With such care and determination, he can stay in the courtyard with peace of mind, and train the Tang brothers and sisters to practice martial arts by the way.
