Chapter 13: Zhongnan Mountain, the Bad Guys! "Shut up!"Two figures dressed in Xuanming Sect uniforms reined in their horses and stopped under a magnificent city gate. Chang'an, the Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty, was also the dilapidated Chang'an in the troubled times. "Senior brother, this..." Lu Linxuan glanced at the city of Chang'an, which was visibly desolate and dilapidated. "This is Chang'an City." Li Xingyun straightened his back and looked at the ruined city of Chang'an. Huang Chao massacred the city and burned Chang'an, and all the noble families in Guanzhong were slaughtered. Zhu Wen usurped the Tang Dynasty and moved the capital, and then slaughtered all the Tang Dynasty officials at Baima Station. The Guanzhong Plain where Chang'an belonged had suffered repeated wars, and its political and strategic status had declined with the passage of time. If the original historical trend had been followed, the capitals of later countries would not have been located in Chang'an, and the city of Chang'an would have gradually withdrawn from the stage of Chinese history. This might be the fate of an ancient capital. "Let's go." Li Xingyun gently pushed the horse's belly and headed towards the direction of Zhongnan Mountain. "Brother, aren't you going in?" Lu Linxuan spurred his horse to catch up. Li Xingyun shook his head gently and said, "It's not time to go back yet." They hurried along the way as the sun set. Li Xingyun and Lu Linxuan, who had changed their clothes on the way, finally arrived at Mount Zhongnan before the sun set. "Brother, how should we find the Valley of Hidden Soldiers?" Mount Zhongnan is hidden in the Qinling Mountains and the terrain is already difficult. They also have to find a valley in it. Lu Linxuan looked up at the green mountains and forests, but he had no clue at all. "There are more than a hundred valleys in Mount Zhongnan. It's like looking for a needle in a haystack for you and me to find a valley. However..." When he said this, the corners of Li Xingyun's mouth suddenly curled up slightly. "But what, Senior Brother?" Lu Linxuan looked curious. Li Xingyun looked sideways at the forest beside the road and said with a smile, "But someone will come to lead the way for us!" Lu Linxuan followed Li Xingyun's gaze and saw a commotion in the forest. Figures rushed out one after another, accompanied by a loud shout, "I built this road and planted this tree. If you want to pass through here, you must leave money for passage. If you dare to say no, I will kill you and not bury you!" In just a few breaths, dozens of young men in short coats blocked Li Xingyun and Lu Linxuan. Li Xingyun narrowed his eyes slightly. These people, each holding a long sword, with a hook hanging on their waist, rushed down the mountain with their breath intact. It was obvious that they were not ordinary bandits. As for the two leading people, they were tall and had a strong aura, and they were holding long-handled Mo Dao in their hands. At this point, Li Xingyun had made up his mind. "Senior brother, shall we take action?" Lu Linxuan's hand was already on the hilt of the sword. Li Xingyun reached out and held her hand, shaking his head slightly.
"Two little kids, this is not the place for you, get out of here!" said a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, his voice was like a bell, and the bandit jargon just now was spoken by him. "What's the point of asking people to get out if the bandits don't rob them of money?" Li Xingyun got off his horse, opened his hands, held a money bag in one hand, and said with a wanton smile: "Come, let me see how capable you thieves are. This silver is a reward for you!" After Li Xingyun finished speaking, he waved his hand and threw out the silver that Xu Cun had given him as a farewell gift from his purse. The white silver shone with silver light in the setting sun, but the bandits remained calm. The sturdy man who had just spoken even jumped out and shouted, "Stinky boy, let me teach you a lesson!" This man would have been fine if he hadn't made a move, but once he did, his power was astonishing, and the Mo Dao in his hand was even more powerful. Whoosh! The wind was coming before the sword arrived. Li Xingyun's eyes lit up, and he drew his sword and said, "Come on!" Ding! The wooden sword is brittle and cannot be hardened with steel. Li Xingyun used the third move of the Green Lotus Sword Song, Swallow Return, and turned his wrist to use the force to counter the force. He turned the whole person in the air along the Mo Dao and stabbed the sword again. The man was surprised, "Green Lotus Sword Song? Who are you?" The strong man couldn't help but exclaimed while blocking the sword with his sword, but saw that Li Xingyun's men did not stop at all. The fourth move, Changhong! The long arm was like a hammer, the sword tip was like a nail, and the force came out. With the blessing of the Tiangang Jue internal force, the strong man was shocked and forced to retreat, "This internal force!" With his internal force of the big star position, he was not the opponent of the kid in front of him? At this time, another man with a ring-shaped head and leopard eyes also saw the clues and hurriedly stopped him, saying, "Stop it, second brother." He then looked at Li Xingyun and said, "Who are you, sir?" Li Xingyun crossed his arms and laughed, "Who are you then? Whose bandits have weapons made of fine iron in their hands? Whose bandits don't even blink when they see dozens of taels of silver? Whose bandits are actually using the Tang army's standard Mo Dao? The Bad People of the Tang Dynasty, should I call you that?" "Please tell me clearly whether you are an enemy or a friend." Seeing that Li Xingyun was so smart and knew Yang Shuzi's Green Lotus Sword Song, the man immediately had a guess in his mind. "I'm Li Xingyun. My master, Yang Shuzi, ordered me to come to the Cangbing Valley in Zhongnan Mountain to discuss something important." Li Xingyun threw out a wooden box, which opened in mid-air and threw out a piece of letter paper with a dark red logo. The man held the letter paper between his fingers and glanced at it. He looked at Li Xingyun in surprise and said, "Why are you here? Aren't you in Yuzhou City?" Li Xingyun chuckled and said, "I want to leave, but they can't stop me." "The Unruly Ones' Tianyong Star Qin Yong and Tianmeng Star Qin Meng greet His Highness!" The two leading men immediately knelt on one knee, and the dozen or so people behind them also shouted in unison: "Greetings to His Highness!" "Your Highness, haha, I have been wandering around the world for more than ten years since I left Chang'an City, but this is the first time that so many people call me Your Highness." Li Xingyun put one hand on Qin Yong's shoulder and said softly, "I have heard that the Bad People only obey the orders of Emperor Li Tang. If I ask you to kill the Bad Leader today, will you go?" "This..." Qin Yong was stunned on the spot, his brain seemed to be insufficient. Li Xingyun immediately smiled and patted his shoulder and said, "Get up, get up, it was just a joke, take me to see him." "Yes, Your Highness." Qin Yong and Qin Meng looked at each other immediately, both of them had sweat on their foreheads. This legendary Your Highness really never stops until he says something shocking. He wanted to kill the Marshal as soon as he opened his mouth. Who can stand this? "Junior sister, let's go." Li Xingyun called out. At this time, Lu Linxuan also realized it later. She immediately dismounted and led the two horses to catch up with Li Xingyun. The identity of her senior brother, the mysterious bad guy, Lu Linxuan felt that her thoughts were a little confused. She felt as if she was caught in a terrible storm. "Hey, wait, my silver! Don't move, I'll do it myself!" Li Xingyun took just two steps and then returned. He stopped the bad guy who was bending over to pick up the money, and Li Xingyun personally put the silver pieces back into the purse. This made Qin Yong and his brother quite puzzled. Qin Yong asked in confusion, "Your Highness didn't look like someone who loves money so much when he was throwing money just now." "Throwing money is to test you, picking up money is for living. You guys, you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are until you manage the household. These dozens of taels of silver are not a small amount." Li Xingyun put away his money bag and thought of his childhood life with a look of emotion, "You only regret not having enough money when you need it. For this thing, you can never have too much." Because there are only more than ten of the Thirty-Six Sky Guardians of the Bad People in the drama, Tianyongxing and Tianmengxing are added here as original characters. There is naturally no need to describe the Thirty-Six Captains in detail in the drama, but they must be written if you write a novel. There is one more thing. Is there any brother who has seen this? There are no comments. I am so panicked.
