Dachunyang Palace

Chapter 144 Long Song
The green hills are faintly covered with water, and the grasses and trees of the south of the Yangtze River are withered in autumn.

24 On a moonlit night at the bridge, where can the jade man teach me how to play the flute?

Three thousand dark islands are dotted on Qianli Lake, and the moonlight casts a faint light on the surface of the lake, reflecting the three thousand islands like pearls on a jade plate. Every bit of soil and every green leaf glows with infinite vitality under the moonlight.

Ye Jinyan didn't care about the way of nature, his white robe was already stained with dust, and he was exhausted from the long journey for half a month.

Looking back at Su Yuanjiu who was sleeping in the carriage, Ye Jinyan became more and more worried.

Since the fierce battle with the Yingzhou rogue half a month ago, Jiu'er's mood has become more and more unstable. Fortunately, her body has been baptized by the heavens and the earth and has an innate foundation, otherwise she will not be able to eat or sleep well for half a month. It has already caused an ordinary girl to collapse.

It was the first time in half a month that he slept so deeply like today.

Maybe I'm too tired.

Looking at the great lake dotted with many islands in the distance, Ye Jinyan felt a little relieved
Coming

The destination of the Taoist’s trip is Changge Gate, one of the three elegant places in the Tang Dynasty located in Qiandao Lake.
This Changge Gate was founded by a salt merchant surnamed Yang. It was originally named Xiangzhi Villa. After more than a hundred years of development, many scholars with lofty ideals gradually gathered together to form the current Changge Gate.

At the beginning, these literati only came here for a meal, and most of them were from poor families, but gradually more people gathered and communicated more and more.

The founder, Yang Zijing, discovered that his unintentional move had such an extraordinary effect. He became more open-minded and thoughtful. Later, he built the famous Huishan Academy on an island here. When recruiting students, most of the literati and poets came here to attract students, and the academy became an unprecedented event.

At the end of the Tang Dynasty, martial arts were popular among the people, and literati also loved to sing about swordsmen and knights, and yearned for the actions of knights with swords, so most of the scholars were martial arts practitioners.

At that time, many people with both civil and military skills gathered in Xiangzhi Villa. They enjoyed poetry, poetry, reciting poems and other elegant things on weekdays, but they also competed in martial arts in their free time. They hoped that one day they could "learn literary and martial arts, and be as good as the emperor's family." .

Gradually, everyone worked together to create a set of unique martial arts routines, and formed a school of their own, calling themselves Changgemen.

Ye Jinyan came here naturally not because he liked Changgemen's unique martial arts, so he specially came to learn martial arts from a teacher.

He came to save people.

The one to save is naturally their Xiaojiu.

Although this Changgemen's physical skills are not as good as other Zhenguo schools, most of their disciples have strong real energy, and most of them are good at rhythm, which is used to cooperate with Changgemen's unique rhythm martial arts.

A heartstring, killing people invisibly.

It is the school of long songs.

But this melody can kill as well as cure people.

In Changge martial arts, it is divided into two lines of "Xianzhi" and "Mowen". One line uses sound to kill people, and the other line uses sound to save the world.

This line of acquaintances is dedicated to saving people with music.

Changgemen's treatment method is extremely clever, using rhythm to heal people's hearts, and those treated by it often heal from the inside out. After receiving their treatment, patients can even improve their state of mind and become more open-minded.

In the words of their acquaintance:

"To heal people, one must first heal the heart."

But Su Yuanjiu's current situation is that his mood has been traumatized. His mood, which had been calm for 17 years, was once impacted by the massacre of his family, and his blood stagnated in his brain.

It is precisely because of this that Su Yuanjiu often has nightmares. Even when he is awake, he always recalls the killing of his family members, and his mood is almost crazy.

It should be most appropriate to bring her here for treatment at this time.

However, before coming out of Yangzhou City Gate, Ye Jinyan placed Changge Gate in the position of "the next worst policy". If you can't go, try not to go. It's best to take Jiu'er back to Chunyang, and by the way, in Wanhua Valley Find a friend over there and see if you can help with treatment.

why?
Because Changge is also a national power.

There are only 21 township forces in the Tang Dynasty, and everyone has a bit of hatred and resentment with everyone, and conflicts of interest are inevitable.

As for Changgemen and Chunyang, even if they are relatively difficult to deal with.

Although it can’t be said that there is such a deep hatred, it can also be called caring for each other. Although the two families are located in the north and the south, Chunyang cut off the commercial roads around Chang’an and won the support of a large number of officials in the court. This is enough to provoke this self-proclaimed righteous sect. I'm upset.

After all, most of the Changgemen are degraded literati.

For example, Li Bai who came out on his own after being an official for two years, Zhang Jiuling who was once a prime minister and is now forced to return to his hometown, Du Fu and Wang Wei who have never been promoted to an official.

One by one, looking at those Chunyang bosses who do nothing but have been holding imperial salaries and sitting in third-rank and second-rank Taoist official positions, they are very uncomfortable.

Although it is a name, it is still an official position!
Of course, these are just jokes. What really caused the two factions to enmity was the conflict of interests between the two factions in the north and south of the canal, but the two factions have always maintained a state of restraint and have never made matters worse.

It's just that it's inevitable that you can't get used to it. It's best not to go if you can.
But I can't go now.

Although half-dream and half-awake can easily lead to mental depression, at least it can make people sure that Jiu'er's body can still hold on, but if he is always asleep like now
Although Ye Jinyan tried his best not to think about that, but no one knew if Jiu'er would never wake up one day.

Ye Jinyan also thought about forcing some ship owner to drive back to Chunyang as he did when he came here, and rescue Jiuer immediately, but the two hundred miles of carriage from Yangzhou to Qiandao Lake is uncomfortable for Jiuer. Can't stand it, not to mention the more bumpy boat ride?
What should I do if Jiu'er has something wrong on the boat?
There is no other way, we can only stay close or far away.

Looking far away, Qiandao Lake stretches as far as the eye can see, with thousands of lush islands dotted on it, and the population is extremely sparse.

Even so, Ye Jinyan heaved a sigh of relief.

Qiandao Lake has arrived, and Changge Gate is not far away.

The strong horse I bought from Zailai Town was also a little tired, and the slightly reddish horse was covered with fine beads of sweat. Seeing that the white-clothed Taoist stopped whipping, he quietly slowed down, and the speed of the car gradually slowed down.

Ye Jinyan looked at the horse and smiled helplessly.

It’s really hard for him to go fast along the way, so it’s not wrong to want to take a break so much, stop as you please, anyway, it’s time to get off the horse and take the boat in a while.

Slowly took the sleeping Xiao Jiu out of the carriage, and carefully put it on his back, wrapping his hands around his neck and supporting his feet.

Although Jiu'er's figure is plump, it's actually not very heavy. It is estimated that it weighs about ninety kilograms on his back, and he can faintly feel a skinny feeling on his back that he has never felt before.

A little distressed.

I think I lost a lot of weight these days because I couldn't eat well or sleep well.

Ye Jinyan was driving the carriage to the side of the road with Jiu'er on his back, and was about to break the rope to let the red-crying horse run out by itself, but he heard a loud sound of horseshoes from the south.

Frowning slightly, there are a lot of disputes in this Jianghu, and it is not particularly strange that there is someone who is rushing or chasing someone, but the scene reflected in his Dao Nian makes Ye Jinyan feel a little strange.

In front of the horse is a woman

And the one who was chasing after him was actually from Changgemen, judging by his clothes.

Looking at Jiu'er behind him, Ye Jinyan gritted his teeth.

For a while, I will rely on these people from the Changgemen for treatment. If I help them now, I might get some goodwill.

Although it's inappropriate for me, a member of Chunyangmen, to humbly beg for the favor of Changgemen, but it's something I have to do for Jiu'er.

hope.
As for helping Chang Gemen arrest a woman, does Ye Jinyan feel guilty?
Don't make trouble, the folks of the Tang Dynasty seem to value men more than men, but women are not much worse. A few years ago, after the royal family recruited a concubine from the folk countryside, there was a wave of favoring women. Although it is not equal to men and women, But discrimination and differences between genders have shrunk to a minimum.

This is even more so in the Jianghu, the children of the Jianghu are often informal, not to mention which famous women in the Jianghu are weaker than men?
So Ye Jinyan didn't feel any compassion because the person being hunted down was a woman.

If you grab it, you can grab it. If it is more convenient for men, so be it for women.

This time Ye Jinyan learned his lesson, instead of putting Jiu'er aside, he carried it on his back, his whole body was surrounded by the essence of sitting and forgetting, and his attention was highly concentrated.

Baozhu was running fast on his horse. From time to time, he looked back to look at the group of Changge disciples who were chasing after him. He felt very fearful in his heart. When he turned back again, there was actually a Taoist priest in front of him, dressed in white and carrying a woman on his back.

'Can't stop! '

His pupils suddenly widened, and the fast-running horse scraped against the ground and crashed into it.

'bang'

A white and slender hand firmly held the white horse's forehead, and the whole horse was grabbed by the head and smashed to the ground, making a series of fracture sounds, and the white horse's mouth kept overflowing with blood.

Baozhu is also a martial arts practitioner. Although his martial arts skills are not very high, he has reached the innate level anyway, and his reaction is extremely fast. A kite turning over would have to fall over Ye Jinyan's head.

But he didn't want to feel as if he was being grabbed by an invisible big hand around his body, and his whole body was frozen in the mid-air for a foot, his whole body kept turning over with his head down and his feet up, and he couldn't even move his eyelids.

'puff'

The wound on Baozhu's back seemed to have been squeezed by this huge force, and some blood spurted out.

The red blood was a little black, and Ye Jinyan frowned when he saw it.

Casually fixed the running woman in the air with his true energy, Ye Jinyan looked at the Changgemen who were chasing after him and began to think.

'Looking at the material of this woman's clothes, she should not be a lady or something, but it looks a bit like the style of the Western Regions. Her skin is more delicate, and her cultivation base is inborn. Changgemen. '

'only.'

Looking at the dark red blood that was gradually corroding the soil, Ye Jinyan's eyes flickered, and he turned his gaze to the figure in the distance again.
