Chapter 001: Little Two Serves Wine

The Northern Liang Wangfu was perched on Qingliang Mountain, with a thousand doors and ten thousand households, extremely prosperous in terms of soil and wood.

As the only remaining king of a different surname in the dynasty, in the temple and the jianghu are both ruined reputation of the Northern Liang King Xu Snap as a meritorious military officials, can be said to get all the things other than the emperor’s throne, in the Northwest three states, he is a well-deserved domination, only hand to cover the sky, turning the clouds and raining.

No wonder the court and the king of a different name of political disagreement with the adults will privately crepe curse a Xu barbarians, and some ill-intentioned, more heartless to throw a top “two emperor” hat.

Today, the Royal Palace is very lively, high-powered king of Beiliang personally opened the door, set up brilliant ceremonies, to meet an old man of the immortal style, the House of the people only heard is from the holy land of Taoism, Longhu Mountain, the gods, the little prince, to be accepted as a closed disciple, which is a great blessing, Beiliang Royal Palace are interpreted as a fool has a fool’s luck.

Not, the little prince since birth has not cried, reading literacy know nothing, six years old will speak, the name is mighty, Xu Longxiang, rumor has it that the old gods of Longhu Mountain that year to take, said that twelve years after the disciples, this is not as promised.

A compound within the Royal Palace, Longhu Mountain ancestor level of the old Taoist ancestor twisting a wisp of snow-white beard, frowning, carrying an uncommonly small Zhong Kui style mahogany sword, with his appearance, really when the word Dusty, who look to be heartily praised by a worldly superior na.

But this time to accept the apprentice obviously encountered a small obstacle, not the royal family has objections, but his future disciple stubbornness up, squatting under a pear tree, with the buttocks to deal with him in the world of Taoism can be ranked in the status of the top three cheap masters, as for the martial arts well, ahem, the top thirty should always have it.

Even the hall of the big pillar of the king of Beiliang have to squat there good words of persuasion, following the good lure through a stock of abduction, “son, go to Longhu Mountain to learn a body of skills, who dares to say you stupid, you will beat him, the three grade below the civil servants and generals, death are not afraid of, dad to support you.”

“Son ah, your strength is big, do not learn martial arts to get a world top ten masters when it would be too bad. When you come back from your studies, dad will give you a riding captain, riding a horse, wearing a heavy armor, how grand.”

The little prince completely ignored, dead staring at the ground, looked with great interest.

“Yellow barbarian child, don’t you like to eat sugar gourds, that Longhu Mountain all over the wild hawthorn, you casually pick casually nibble. Tianshi Zhao, isn’t it?”

The Old Divine Master squeezed out a hard smile and nodded his head repeatedly. Receiving a disciple to receive this, is also too shabby, said out will not be the whole world joke.

But even if located in the hall of super first-grade official position, in the twelve counties of the words of the great pillar country dry mouth, the teenager is still not much of a reaction, presumably impatient suspected that the old man said croak, cocked up the buttocks, poof a down a loud fart, but also did not forget to turn his head to the old man grinning.

The king of northern Liang to the angry raised his hand to gesture to hit, but raised his hand stalemate for a while, then stop. One is not willing to hit, two is to hit the meaningless.

This son can really stand up to the name, Xu Longxiang, from the “water line in the dragon power is the largest, land line in the elephant power first, mighty as a diamond, is called the dragon and elephant”, don’t look at the silly son nicknamed yellow barbarians naive and clumsy, so far, the bucket of big words can’t read, the skin is sickly dark yellow, the figure is more than his peers to be thin and weak, but this power, but this is the first class horrifying.

Xu prima ten years old from the army to kill, from the northeast Jinzhou kill Huns to the south of the extermination of the size of the six countries slaughter more than seventy cities and then to the southwest to suppress the barbarians sixteen, what kind of brawn amazing generals have not seen, but such as the youngest son this can be born with copper tendons and iron bones, really do not have.

Xu Snapdragon’s heart gently sighs, yellow barbarians if you can be a little smarter, more open one or two, the future will certainly become the first of the trap unrivaled fierce general ah.

He slowly got up and turned his head towards the Longhu Mountain seniority very high Taoist embarrassed smile, the latter eyes signaled that it does not matter, but the heart is inevitably sad, receive a disciple to receive this, but also too not a thing, once the word out will not be laughed at by the whole world, the face of this old man would not be able to in front of a large group of disciples in the Longhu Mountain set in front of the children and grandchildren of the loo.

The king of Beiliang, who was at his wits’ end, had a plan, and said, “Huang Baner, your brother’s parade has returned, and it’s about time for him to enter the city, so don’t you go out and take a look?”

The young prince looked up sharply, expression of a thousand years unchanged dull and stiff, but the usual mute and godless eyes burst out of a rare luster, very prickly, pulling the old man’s hand on the way out.

Unfortunately, this Beiliang Wang Fu is famous for a hundred corridors back and forth winding paths a thousand twists and turns, or else it can not accommodate a full of court officials and scholars criticized “listening to the tide of the pavilion”, the hand was held by his son’s raw pain of Xu Snapdragon had to be reminded a number of times to go down the wrong road, enough to walk for an incense stick of time, which came to the House of the outside.

Behind the father and son and the old gods, followed by a group of slaves carrying a large and small box, are ready to take to the Dragon Tiger Mountain things, the king of Beiliang is rich and powerful, the son and daughter is also always spoiled, can not see them eat a little bit of suffering and suffer a little bit of aggravation.

To the outside of the mansion, the young prince once he saw the streets empty, where there is the figure of his brother, first disappointment, followed by anger, a deep hiss, hoarse and violent, at first wanted to be angry at Xu Snapdragon, but stupid to stupid, at least still know that this one is the father, otherwise I am afraid that Xu Snapdragon will have to be like the unlucky encounter with Xu Longxiang’s black warrior in the autumn hunting not long ago, was single-handedly ripped in half by the twelve year old teenager alive. He glared angrily at his weak-minded father and turned around.

Xu Snap, who didn’t want to lose all his efforts, helplessly threw the old god a look. The Dragon Tiger Mountain real person smiled faintly, stretching out his arm like a withered bamboo, but with only two fingers on the young prince’s wrist, and said softly and kindly, “Xu Longxiang, don’t waste your talent and endowment that is hard to come by in a hundred years, follow me to the Dragon Tiger Mountain, and in a maximum of ten years, you’ll be able to go down to the mountain to establish your merit and virtue.”

The teenager did not talk nonsense, hummed and continued to go, but the mysterious and odd thing was that he found that he was not able to break free from the old Taoist priest’s seemingly cloudy bondage, how that step out of the suspended step did not land on the ground.

Beiliang King is relieved, the Taoist seniority is ridiculously high to the Shangren really still have some ability, know the son is not like a father, Xu Snapdragon where do not know the youngest son’s strength, domineering, so much so that he did not dare to arrange for more servants and maidservants to his son for fear of an accidentally pinched off the arms and legs and feet, these years the courtyard was sitting in the bad shot rotten tables and chairs innumerable, but also thanks to the Beiliang King’s House of the family’s foundation is solid, the unusual solid families have long been bankrupt! The first thing you need to do is to get rid of it.

The young prince froze for a moment, then angry, light drink, hard to take the old gods forward a step, two steps, three steps. The real person with the yellow crown on top of his head and clad in Taoist robes just slightly eeped, not angry but happy, quietly increasing his force by a few points, stopping the youngster from moving on.

In this way, Xu Longxiang was truly enraged, his face as fierce as a wild beast, stretching out his free hand, holding the old Daoist’s arm with both hands, sinking his feet, clicking, stepping out two pits on the alabaster floor, and with a fling, hurling the old Daoist’s entire body out of the way.

Great Pillar State Xu Snapdragon narrowed his eyes, not the slightest fear of causing a fatal case, if that Taoist monk does not have this catty ability, fall to death, just fall to death, he Xu Snapdragon even the invincible Western Chu Dynasty to use the Liangzhou Iron Cavalry to trample flat, when has there ever been the slightest reverence for the jianghu sects? What about Longhu Mountain, the leader of the world’s Taoist organizations? Jurisdiction of the territory of a number of large sects, although not compared to the Longhu Mountain, but in the dynasty also belongs to the first-class scale, for example, that hundreds of years has been competing with the Longhu Mountain that the Taoist tradition of the Wudang Mountain, in the jianghu enough to transcend it, but not every year to take the initiative to send people to send three or four furnaces of precious pills?

The old Taoist gently floating to the entrance of the Royal Palace of a two high alabaster stone lions, extremely rich immortal aura. Based on this hand alone, if it were in the marketplace, it would not be able to win the applause of the audience ah.

This according to the Northern Liang Wang Prince that Xu primrose first son of the popular saying, that is “the reward, this work is not simple, is the technical work”, may be hundreds of thousands of silver reward out, think of the time when His Royal Highness did not go out of the Northern Liang scourge of other people’s days, how many Qinglou Qingling or the jianghu cheats have got his generous bounty.

The highest record is a foreign ranger, in the street, a word with the local swordsman fight, from the street food stalls to fight to the lakeside and finally hit the lake Liangzhou’s largest harrier overflowing incense building roof, to the day declared obscene son woke up, and immediately do not care about the tender as sheep’s fat beautiful jade of the Quei Xiao Niang Zi, in the window shouted loudly, and afterwards in the son of His Highness’s blend of the government is not only not pursued, but almost to the ranger to send to the cool of the state! The good man’s big gold medal, he even let the servant quickly whip to send a large pile of a whole hundred thousand silver tickets.

There is no good Lingzhou that likes to play with eagles and dogs of His Royal Highness, but it is really lonely ah. Serious people’s little girls finally dare to buy rouge on the street, the second-rate playboys finally no longer with them to grab the devil of the bullying men and women, large and small greenhouses can not wait for the number one son of a throw of money.

Xu Snapdragon, the king of Beiliang, has two daughters and two sons, all of them are strange.

The big princess married, and even three husbands, became the dynasty within the face of the most beautiful dowry the most widows, in the five counties of the Jiangnan Road far spread, style of debauchery.

Although the second princess looks mediocre, but is erudite, proficient in the warp and woof, from the Shangyin Palace of Han Guzi Han everyone, became the art of war everyone Xu Huang, the vertical and horizontal magician Sima Chan and a group of imperial celebrities of the younger sister.

Xu Longxiang is the youngest son of the king of Beiliang, relatively obscure, while the eldest son is even the capital side of the big reputation of the guy, a mention of the Great Pillar State Xu Snapdragon, will inevitably be involved in the son of Xu Fengyen, “praise” a tiger father has no son, but unfortunately Xu Snapdragon is valor in the battlefield, but the son is to compete in the wind and snow on the defeat of the family.

Three years ago, His Highness Xu Fengyen rumored to be neck on the rack with a sword whisked out of the Royal Palace, forced to learn to line Guanzhong magnates young juniors and the crown ceremony before the routine tour, a wobble is three years, completely no news, Lingshou so far remembers His Highness out of the city, the walls of a dozen or so big playboys and tens of large and small flowers in tears in the eyes of the touching picture, but there is an insider to say that His Highness, such as His Highness far away, the same day, the Cardinal House of the wine banquet! Then through the night, too much wine poured into the river, the whole city can smell the fragrance of wine.

Back to the side of the royal residence, the heart of the closed young prince running rushed to the jade lion, seems to wrestle an old man is not too much, this time it is to the eyesore of the old Taoist along with the claimed thousand pounds of weight of the lion together with the wrestling out.

But he just shook up the lion, Longhu Mountain, the old Taoist will float down to hold a hand of the young man, make a real effort to the Taoist obscure “moving mountain” technique, skillful band, will bend the knees of the young man half squatting to pull up, light laugh: “yellow barbarians, don’t make a fuss, go with the division. ”

The young man held the corner of the lion base with one hand, five fingers like hooks, deep into the jade, refused to let go, arms stretched like an ape, hissing and yelling: “I want to wait for my brother to come back, my brother said he would bring me back the world’s most beautiful woman as a daughter-in-law, I want to wait for him!”

Great Pillar State Xu Snapdragon, who was the most powerful man in the world, cried and laughed, unable to do anything about it, looked at the yellow-crowned old Taoist and sighed heavily, “It’s just a matter of waiting a little longer, it’s almost time anyway.”

The old Taoist smiled oddly at his words, but still let go of the young prince’s arm, smacking his lips in his heart, this little guy is more than just born with godly strength, it is simply the Taibai star descending to earth.

However, that little son of a bitch called Xu Fengnian is really coming back? This is not a good news. When he first came back to the king’s house, but suffered enough, the first to be taken as a cheat to cheat food and drink jianghu cheat not to mention, that is only seven or eight years old rabbit directly released a group of vicious dogs to bite themselves, and then it was not easy to explain clearly, into the mansion, the little bastard thing and bad intentions, sent two dainty beauty to knock on the door in the middle of the night, said that the weather is cold to warm up the quilt, if not for the poor Taoist fixation of the extraordinary, but also really got into the way! Now occasionally think about it, quite regret not talking to the two girls all night long, “The Great Cave Sutra” and “Yellow Court Sutra”, even if not talk about this, talk about the “Vegetarian Girl’s Heart Sutra” is also good.

In the dusk, the official road, an old and a young by the afterglow elongated figure, the old backed by a rags wrapped in a long bag, ragged clothes, a head of white hair, also mixed with a few thatched grass, get a broken bowl squatting on the ground to be able to beg, holding a thin and bony lame horse. The small one is actually not small, full of stubble, a city hemp shirt, fleeing refugees in general.

“Old yellow, hold on a little longer, into the city back home, there will be a big piece of meat and a big bowl of wine, heck, before I did not think that this wine and meat is something rare, now the thought of it is too greedy, every day dreaming.” The young man who couldn’t tell his real age said in a breathless voice.

Servant-like scruffy old man laughed, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth with missing incisors, appearing to be thieves and thieves ridiculous.

“Laugh your ass off, old man can’t even cry now.” The young man rolled his eyes and said, he really didn’t have the spirit to toss and turn.

Two thousand miles back to the road, just short of down to begging along the road, this way down to the water to touch the fish, up the mountain and rabbit hide-and-seek, climbed a tree to pull out a bird’s nest, as long as the meat, get cooked, regardless of whether there is no salt, that is under the sky the most delicious meal. During the period through the village to try to steal some chickens and ducks and so on, several times was carrying hoes and sticks of strong man chased dozens of miles, almost did not die of exhaustion.

Which is not the bright clothes of the anointed son of the powerful and powerful?

Then look at myself, a tattered hemp clothes, a pair of straw shoes, a lame horse, but also do not want to slaughter the meat, even ride are not willing to, but more than a mouth to rub rice.

Wicked slaves are even less, the old yellow this living a small body he just look at the panic, fear that this walking two thousand miles of road someday on the silent hiccups, when he even talk to a companion is not, but also have to spend effort in the wilderness to dig a pit.

Has not yet entered the city, not far outside the city wall there is a hanging apricot wine stall, he is really exhausted, smelled the fragrance of wine, closed his eyes, sniffing, a face of intoxication, really thieves mother of incense. A ruthless, he walked over to the only empty stool and sat down on his butt, gritted his teeth and used his last breath to shout: “Xiao Er, on the wine!”

Around him out of the city or into the city to rest in the middle of the wine customers are disgusted with the shabby clothes of a master and a servant, deliberately sit far away.

Business busy shopkeeper originally heard the voice to echo a “good le”, but a look at the attire of the two masters and servants, immediately pulled down the face, out of the business, no eye power how, these two guests do not want to be out of the money of the goods of the wine, the shopkeeper is still quite generous, did not immediately drive people, just end of the smile smiley face reminded that “Our signature apricot wine can be a pot of twenty dollars, not expensive, but also not cheap.”

If it was before, was so dog-eyed, the young man has long let the dog put evil slaves, but three years of the world, used to the days of penniless, frame temper convergence too much, gasping for breath: “all right, naturally, someone to check out, not less than your reward money.”

“Reward?” The store assistant tore his voice away, a face of contempt.

The young man laughed bitterly, thumb index finger on the side of the mouth, put the last bit of milk strength are made out to blow a whistle, and then lie down on the simple wine table, snoring, even fell asleep. The shopkeeper only felt puzzled, only the sharp-eyed people vaguely saw a little shadow flashed overhead.

A falcon-like bird of prey like an arrow swept over the city.

Around the time when the drinkers finished their bowls of apricot wine, the earth rumbled without warning, the wine table shook, and the drinkers watched with wide eyes as the wine followed the wooden table, all carefully holding it up and looking around.

Only to see a group of iron horsemen rushing out from the city gates, stretching into two black lines, as if there was no end. In the dust, the high horse, all are in the northern Liang territory to one for a hundred world famous heavy armor primus, look at that the leader of the flag carrying general hand holding the king’s flag, brightly colored like blood, on the book of a word, “Xu”!

Boy, the full-fledged army under the Northern Liang King.

In the world, who can compete with the Northern Liang Iron Cavalry that has sped through the dynasty’s thirteen northern and southern states?

In the past, the Western Chu Dynasty felt that its 120,000 halberdiers dared to go against its front, but the result, the battle of Jinghe, the whole army was wiped out, and all the pawns were pitted and killed, wailing like thunder.

Two hundred elite iron horsemen sprinted out, vast and powerful.

A falcon full of aura seems to lead the way at the top of the head.

Two hundred iron horsemen instantly stood still, their movements were the same, this skillfulness has far exceeded the scope of the general line of soldiers in a hundred battles.

The fourth-grade military general Folding Lieutenant rolled over and dismounted, saw the old servant leading the horse at a glance, and immediately Mercedes Benz to the front of the restaurant, kneeled down and saluted, and respectfully said, “The last general Qi Dangguo see His Highness the son of the world!”

And the shabby young man who had mouthed off about giving reward money just murmured in his sleep, “Xiao Er, serve the wine.”
