A month ago, a message came from the Mu clan that Tang Bufeng, who had not been a guest for a long time, broke through the third level in the snowy night and transformed from the second level of Xu Niannian to Lingxi. People of the three realms.
Not to mention that the scenery was the same for a while, after the leader of the Mu clan learned about it, he gave the guest Qing Duo as a gift.
The eight tribes that have always lived in the southeastern territory of the Yuan Dynasty are different from other places. There are few precedents of accepting guests. Compared with other tribes in the Yuan Dynasty and even the powerful families in the world, the matter of accepting guests is the most complicated and stringent. There are often no guests in the tribe for ten years. This statement requires outsiders to make sufficient contributions, and it is still up to the clan members to decide whether to accept him as a guest minister. It often takes a year and a half to delay, and it may not be possible to implement it. However, if he becomes a guest minister, his ranking is second only to Under the head of the clan, he has a very high status, and his power is unmatched by ordinary guests in the world. And this time, before Tang Bufeng broke into the third realm, he was already a guest of the Mu family. The Fang Keqing Duo given to him after breaking through was the first time in decades that the Mu family could rely on this. The Great Duo entered and exited the ancestral hall of the Mu clan without any need for courtesy. He was on an equal footing with the clan leader, and could command half of the Mu clan's troops with this big duo, which showed how much the Mu clan valued Tang Bufeng.
It's snowing lightly today, and the flags on the side of the glacier are billowing in the wind.
The ice on the river was already more than ten feet thick, but someone in the glacier took out a sword. However, it was not an ordinary practice, but the sword followed the snow. When the fine snow as big as fingertips passed by the person's side, it all turned into two ends and remained intact. , hitting the surrounding ice.
Tang Bufeng has always been diligent in practicing swordsmanship. He is crazy when killing thieves, crazy when speaking, and crazy when practicing swordsmanship. That's why Tang Bufeng, a very elegant nickname, has survived to this day. It's also a shame that Shen Jie added fuel to the fire. At present, even the people in the Mu clan know the name of Madman Tang. Although not many people dare to say it to his face, in fact, even Tang Bufeng himself has heard many times about the man in the Mu clan being drunk and drunk. When Shi Yan mentioned the three words Madman Tang, he could only smile bitterly in the end, but he never got angry. I just felt that calling him this way was acceptable, at least it made him sound very close. Furthermore, he really didn't want to provoke Shen Jie. This scholar, who looked as handsome as a woman, was becoming more and more unpredictable. Sometimes Tang Bufeng even wanted to ask whether Shen Jie had broken through the four realms. If not, There is absolutely no such superb magical power in the Fourth Realm, but if you really stand in the Fourth Realm, you have lost a little bit of energy. However, regardless of whether you are in the Fourth Realm or not, facing Tang Bufeng who has already stood firmly in the Third Realm , Shen Jie is still as light and steady as before, and the silver lake hangs upside down like a knife. To Shen Jie, it is just like the lonely sunset at dusk.
There are many grievances in the world, but being unable to gain the upper hand in bickering, being beaten again and again, and having a deep sense of humor is far from enough. This is probably the most grievance thing that Tang Bufeng has encountered recently.
Compared with the two who often quarrel and bicker, Ruan Qiubai still has the heart to see the beautiful scenery in the cold weather. Ruan Qiubai has been in seclusion for a long time, but there is still not much movement. Even though his talent is not as good as Tang Bufeng, after all, he has the internal energy accumulated over the years. Although his cultivation level is very strong and his understanding is slightly inferior, it is Tang Bufeng who comes from behind. He naturally wants to be competitive, but the more he is like this, the longer he is unable to break through to the third realm. According to Shen Jie's words, Tang Bufeng is just a stubborn stone in the rivers and lakes. After years of bumping and polishing, the ups and downs have already polished the whole stone to a clear finish, not to mention that it was originally a piece of rough jade, not a stubborn stone. Shi, his thoughts are enough to keep up with his cultivation, and of course he needs to add some natural mystical energy. However, the head of the Ruan family, who has been in Mocheng for a long time, is still thinking that he is not as strong as Tang Bufeng. His strength and flexibility are far behind, so even if his talent is It is not necessarily inferior, and it is a good thing to avoid slowing down and being tempered more.
Although what he said was true, Tang Bufeng was such a protective person. After Shen Jie said these words, he started to stir up trouble more and more often. Even though his head was sore after being beaten by Shen Jie and he had no chance to win, he still came frequently. He asked for advice, and then was beaten again by Shen Jie using the magical powers in the book until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. He left in anger, but came back two days later to ask for a beating.
However, even if he knew that he had revealed his cultivation, Tang Bufeng could go more smoothly in the Mu family area. Shen Jie never showed his magical cultivation in front of outsiders. Therefore, in the eyes of others, this handsome and elegant scholar only He is a bookworm who can't live without books all day long. He may have some basic skills to make plans, but if he tries, he may not be able to defeat the children of the eight tribes.
After Tang Bufeng finished practicing swordsmanship, he returned to his hometown. It looked like he was practicing swordsmanship, but in fact it was not just as easy as practicing swordsmanship. Since he was highly regarded by the leader of the Mu clan, he had to teach the men of the Mu clan how to use swords and guns, and he might have some training skills. You can't learn it, but the exquisite swordsmanship requires hard work to hone each move. If you learn a few tricks, you may not be able to use them in the future. Therefore, whenever Tang Bufeng goes out to practice swordsmanship, everyone under Tang Ziya's banner will ask for it. There are many men from the Mu clan who have seen swords and flowers rolling back and forth in the middle of the glacier. Even if Madman Tang is more crazy and ugly, in the eyes of these men who worship martial arts and love martial arts, he is probably more handsome than a delicate one. The lady looks good.
"It's been a long time since I came to Dayuan. I'm much stronger than before. I used to be a little sallow and thin, but now I really have the attitude of a martial artist." Without being ridiculed, Shen Jie took out two eyes from the book with great effort. , glanced at Tang Bufeng, then put the scroll into his arms and walked side by side.
The cold air in the north shows no signs of subsideping at this time, but is getting heavier. Strong winds are blowing, and it is difficult to identify the direction of the wind. The frost and snow are tight, and ice icicles several feet long hang on both sides of the river bank, like hanging swords or canine teeth.
"Let's not mention it for the moment. The food and drink are very good. No wonder when I was still traveling around the world in Qi Ling Yizhang, I heard people say that during the years of war, catching a pair of Dayuan cavalry and fighting them could win the world championship, let alone hundreds of thousands of cavalry. After tens of breaths, I'm afraid that if a cultivator in the Four Realms is hit hard, he will still have to break a few bones." From the moment he entered the Mu clan, Tang Bufeng had put aside all the scattered prejudices he had, as if he still felt that back then. The unparalleled strength of the Great Yuan Iron Cavalry was inevitably suspected of bragging. Only when we got here did we realize how terrifying it would be for these men, as strong as oxen and capable of drawing a large bow, to stand on the battlefield one day.
Shen Jie knew that Tang Bufeng was going to say such a thing, so he chuckled twice, "So what, isn't it a good thing for Madman Tang who has taken the Tang Yaqi guest Qing Daduo?"
"Except for the Mu clan, the other seven clans have all interacted with the Xumeng Mansion. Not only the head of the Mu clan is keeping a close eye on this matter, but I also learned a lot when I was out and about to inquire about the news. Especially among them, The Lou family is the most involved with the Xu Meng family. Most of the time, they are still called the Lou family, but in fact, they are considered to be the front and back soldiers of the Xu Meng family. Therefore, although the eight clans are still in the same family and have close friendships, they can be called strangers. The Mu clan The leader may not necessarily obey the general trend, but he has his own character and arrogance. It is hard for a strong person to change his mind for a long time, but this kind of thought is rare."
Tang Bufeng, who was familiar with Shen Jie's temperament and way of life, was slightly moved. Others were not sure about Shen Jie. They always thought that they could benefit from the same thing because of their friendship with him, and they were always an outsider. In fact, Shen Jie had never had any intention of clinging to him. , on the contrary, from the beginning to the end, he felt that the matter had nothing to do with him, and there was no need to contribute to the Mu family. After all, he only went out to travel and stayed here for a longer time. Shen Jie had never made it clear that Tang Bufeng was a guest and received the title of Dudu. What do you think? So now that Shen Jie could have these words that could be called biased, Tang Bufeng stopped for a moment no matter how deep the city was.
But Shen Jie waved his hands repeatedly and laughed at himself, "Don't look at me. I'm a scholar who only knows how to study. I can't help you. Besides, Mu family has opponents from all directions now. They just hide it and don't show it. If When the other seven clans and the Mu family really lift the layer of window paper, there will be no turning back. I am just an ordinary scholar who loves reading. I really should be able to learn from books to make peace and turn disaster into good fortune. No, if you really think so, I advise you to stop talking nonsense in the future, and go to whoever told me, and don’t throw me into the pit of thunder and fire."
A ladle of cold water poured on Tang Bufeng's eyebrows and eyes, and he didn't know how to answer the question for a while.
Shen Jie finally grinned and patted Tang Bufeng on the shoulder, "The joke is not true. Originally, this trip out of Mocheng was given by the city lord to look after the Ruan family head, but since we are now mostly friends , and it’s because of the weird eyes of the Ruan family that I picked you as a man, and I will try my best to help you both emotionally and rationally, but as for how much ability I have, I don’t know how much.”
Abbot Tang Bufeng is only thirty or fifty feet away from Ruan Qiubai's retreat place, but now Ruan Qiubai is retreating to realize the three realms, and no one can enter it, not even Tang Bufeng. He is afraid of disturbing the practice and ruining all his previous achievements, but every day Tang Bufeng regardless of his leisure time and No, he had to sit outside that building for a long time, until dusk was already deep and the wind was cutting like a knife, the snow had melted from head to toe, and his eyelashes were almost covered with ice, and then he got up and went back to the house to rest. This happened every day.
In fact, Shen Jie felt that Tang Bufeng's actions were very useless, but he couldn't say much, so he never tried to dissuade him. Now he saw Tang Bufeng sitting cross-legged again, holding a gourd of wine in his hand, and was about to say a few words of warning. , Tang Bufeng took the lead.
"Brother Shen, you can rest yourself. I have to stay here for a while. Even if I go back to my residence now, I guess I won't feel at ease. Although there is no danger in taking the guest position now, I still feel a little uneasy. Even if I rest, it is difficult to have peace of mind. Why don't you just drink and wait here for a while, listen to the wind and see the snow, that's good."
Shen Jie blinked.
When a practitioner breaks through the realm, it is no different than the intersection of life and death.
Tang Bufeng was not willing to listen to the wind and watch the snow, but he was worried about how to get rid of it. Only by getting closer could he convince himself that his thoughts could be conveyed closer to Ruan Qiubai. With such praises and pleas to the gods and Buddhas in the sky, he didn't know how to get rid of them. When protecting, it can be more effective.
】
It was frosty and cold, and the snow was flying in the sky. Tang Bufeng was sitting under the eaves, holding up the wine gourd, talking to himself. His words were very soft, and they were probably not words of love, but Shen Jie knew it. , in this snow-covered sky and earth, no one worships the Buddha devoutly, but in terms of sincerity and strong thoughts, it should be this madman who only knows how to practice swordsmanship, who is the most affectionate.
ps. I wish you all a Happy New Year in advance~2023 will be a prosperous one, all worries will fade away, and you will be safe and happy.
