Let's say that Zhao Gou rode a mud horse to divide the water and ride the waves eastward along the roaring Yellow River. He was riding like flying along the way. The strong wind in front of him made it difficult to open his eyes. He could only hear the sound of wind and thunder in his ears, and he could not calculate the distance. Far and near.
After a while, he felt that the mud horse under his crotch gradually slowed down, and then he opened his eyes slightly and looked to the left and right. He saw that there were no Jin Kingdom pursuers on the shore, but he didn't know where he was.
Suddenly, a clear and long laugh came into the ears, and someone could hear someone chanting: "Blessings are immeasurable, Your Highness Prince Kang, it's been a long time!"
Zhao Gou was startled and hurriedly turned his head to follow the sound, only to see a Taoist in green clothes standing against the wind on the south bank of the Yellow River.
This Taoist could only see about twenty people. His face was like a full moon, his brows were smiling, and he was holding a palm-sized jade gourd in his left hand.
"Taoist Hu Yun!"
Zhao Gou immediately recognized him. He was the one who was the most respected and favored by his father. Later, he suddenly set up an ambush and surrounded him. However, he broke into the palace and forced his father to make an alliance under the city. He allowed the cessation of Dengzhou to be regarded as self-reliance. Hu Long, the leader of Taishangdao.
Hu Long raised the jade gourd in his hand and said with a smile: "It is a poor Taoist who presumes to ask King Kang to come here to meet me. Please forgive me."
As he spoke, the mud horse holding Zhao Gou turned around automatically and ran towards Hu Yuan's position.
Although Zhao Gou was a little worried, he had nothing to do, so he could only let it go.
The mud horse's hooves had just landed on the shore, and suddenly it stood motionless on the spot.
Zhao Gou also discovered that the mud horse instantly lost the previous touch of flesh and blood. When he looked down, he saw that it had turned back into a dry hard mud tire, and he hurriedly turned over and got off the horse.
He calmed down, walked to Hu Yuan, bowed his hands and said, "The little king is going to be in a big disaster. Fortunately, the Taoist priest used his magical power to save me. I am very grateful. I will be rewarded the next day."
Hu Yuan saw that this man had just escaped from a great disaster and was still able to maintain his composure in the face of his unknown purpose. He secretly praised him for being far superior to his father and brother who had become captives, so he returned the favor and said calmly:
"Kang Kang doesn't need to be polite. It is said that Pindao left Tokyo that day and should have parted ways with the Song Dynasty, so there is no need to offend the river. But thinking about the innocent people, he decided to take action to restore some vitality to the Song Dynasty to resist the golden captives and protect the people. . If King Kang remembers today's affection, he only needs to do his best to resist the gold and protect the land, and treat the people well, so that Pindao's action will not be in vain."
Zhao Gou's face was a little embarrassed, but he thought that his father and brother had done these things in a very unethical way, and even if he was unhappy in his heart, he had no way to refute.
Hu Yuan only said this sentence lightly, and then said: "Now the north of the Yangtze River is being poisoned by the Jinlu. If King Kang has the ambition to reorganize the world, he might as well cross the river south, use Jinling as his foundation, and gather people with lofty ideals from all over the world. , work together to conquer the Central Plains."
With a thought in his mind, Zhao Gou hurriedly made a sincere gesture and raised his hands to Hu Yuan and said: "Since the Taoist priest has compassion on the common people, why not go south with Gu Gu to conspire to restore the great cause?"
Hu Long shook his head and said: "Pindao still has some things to do, but he has no time to clone himself at the moment. But a good man will do his best to the end, so Pindao will simply lend a helping hand to King Kang."
Having said this, he raised the jade gourd in his left hand to his chest and said in his mouth: "Please show up, baby!"
Immediately, three feet of white light emerged from the mouth of the gourd, and an object appeared at the top of the white light. It was three inches and seven minutes long, shaped like a flying dragon, with eyes like lightning, and a pair of wings growing under its ribs. It was Hu Long who held the three handles. The flying knife is fused with the "immortal-killing flying knife" after sacrifice.
The two index fingers of his right hand formed a sword gesture and he drew it with one finger. The flying knife turned back into a white light and disappeared into Zhao Gou's eyebrows.
Seeing the surprised and uncertain look on Zhao Gou's face, Hu Long smiled and said, "Don't worry, King Kang. The thing just now is an 'immortal-killing flying knife' made by Pindao. It was temporarily lent to King Kang for three years and placed in the sea of consciousness between the eyebrows. If King Kang is in danger, all he has to do is call out, "Please, baby, show me!" and it will appear immediately; then he must humiliate King Kang and bow to it, and then call out, "Please, baby, turn around," and the sword will be taken out immediately. Take the enemy's head off."
Zhao Gou was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed to Hu Long and thanked him.
Hu Yuan said again: "King Kang must remember that although this sword is powerful, it cannot be abused, otherwise it will greatly interfere with one's own luck. In addition, Pindao has one more matter to discuss with King Kang."
"Master Taoist, please speak, I will accept everything."
Although Zhao Gou heard his first sentence but didn't care, his last sentence really made Zhao Gou feel at ease.
Zhao Gou didn't believe that Taoist Hu Yun would be so magnanimous and come to save him. He had a plan to sort it out.
Hu Yuan said: "Now that Pindao has entered the world, he cannot sit back and watch Jinlu poison the people. He wants to use all his strength to deal with it. Soon after, Pindao will send troops from Dengzhou to attack the entire Jingdong East Road, as a Genji is at odds with Jinlu."
Zhao Gou had an ugly look on his face: "Although I am a prince, I have no right to give away the territory of the Song Dynasty to others."
Hu Long chuckled and said: "Kang Wang misunderstood what Pindao meant. Pindao was not asking for an imperial edict to cede the land. He was just saying hello to King Kang. After all, the land on Jingdong East Road was once the territory of the Song Dynasty."
Zhao Gou almost choked to death when he heard the word "once" that was specially emphasized in the other party's words.
No matter how he reacted, Hu Yuan kept to himself and said: "Pindao can still make a gentleman's agreement with King Kang. Within three years, if King Kang can raise the troops from the south of the Yangtze River to come back and conquer his homeland, Pindao is willing to raise the troops from Shandong. Show solidarity and work together to expel the Jinlu."
Zhao Gou didn't take these words to heart anymore and just nodded to show that he knew.
Seeing that he had succeeded in chatting to death, Hu Yuan said nothing more and said with a smile: "This is all I have to say, so I will send King Kang off immediately."
After that, he walked over to the mud horse, raised the jade gourd and poured a sip of wine into his mouth. Mo Yun Qi was contained in the wine, and he sprayed it towards the horse's head.
The mud horse suddenly came to life again. He raised his hands and let out a long neigh, and his four hooves lightly jumped on the spot.
"Please mount the horse, King Kang. This time it will obey King Kang's command."
Zhao Gou took a deep look at Hu Long, bowed his hands in greeting, and immediately flew onto his horse, shook the reins vigorously, and urged the mud horse to gallop away towards the south.
Hu Long stood there and looked at the smoke in the distance, took a sip of the wine in the gourd, and thought in his heart:
"Although I have said it before, I don't believe that you can bear not to use the 'immortal-killing flying knife' frequently. From now on, the fate of the Song Dynasty that you are tied to will gradually be absorbed by this treasure, helping it to transform and evolve within three years. .This is exactly the principle of 'if you want to take it first, you must give it first'.
"Hey! In the final analysis, your Song Dynasty's national destiny for more than 150 years is just lingering. Rather than wasting it in the hands of your unprogressive monarchs, it is better for me to use it to cleanse the evil atmosphere and clarify the jade world."
