The Queen of the Eastern Capital respected Buddhism throughout the country, and everyone from the courtiers to the common people took it as their duty to eat fasting and chant Buddha's name.
The Queen even used 20,000 guan of powder money to help monks carve the Lucena Buddha in the Longmen Grottoes in Luoyang. Such a huge project has taken two years and nine months, and is expected to be completed in another year. [
The world should be a peaceful and peaceful place.
Unfortunately, the city of Chang'an could not calm down.
Not to mention the Longhu Gang that was wiped out overnight by Lantian Villa and Yeyu Tower, even the later Yeyu Tower also disappeared overnight.
On the bright side of Chang'an City, there are only a few bodyguards from the escort bureaus and some casual cultivators in the martial arts world, which make up the underground world of Chang'an City.
Unexpectedly, in recent years, another bank has appeared, a bank called Qiangui Bank.
Some mysterious people in the Jianghu privately said that the money cabinet was a serious bank on the surface, and also delivered cash for merchants doing business in the north and south, but privately it was not much different from the gangs in the Jianghu.
After all, how can serious money come as quickly as evil money?
In the blink of an eye, almost ten years have passed, and people have gradually forgotten about Jin Wuming and Meteor Sword in Lantian Villa. There are no longer even the occasional rumors on the streets of Chang'an.
Xiaoyue'er and Xiaobao were either staying on No. 47 to make tea with the old man and learn the piano, or they went to the snowy mountains to practice swordsmanship.
Wang Yi and Ye Xiaoqian became the second shopkeepers of Hongchen Inn and no longer walked around the world.
Even Xiao Guang doesn't walk much on the streets of Chang'an, because Gao Yue'er has tortured him to death over the years and has no time to go down the mountain to go shopping.
The only good thing is that after practicing hard in the snowy mountains for nearly ten years, the opponents Xiaoguang is looking for are no longer Wang Yi or Jin Wuming.
Just like what Master Gao Yue'er said, you can only see the imperial city by standing on the snow-capped mountains, and you can see farther by climbing to the top of the snow-capped mountains.
When Wang Yi retired from the world, the grown-up Xiaoguang seemed to have become his eldest brother Wang Yi.
However, under Gao Yue'er's polishing, he became much more low-key than Wang Yi before, except for a few insiders of Qin Xiangyu.
In the entire underground world of Chang'an City, no one among the Jianghu monks knew that he was the real young master of Lantian Villa.
I don’t know how many years after being taught by the master, and under the persuasion of Wang Yi and Ye Xiaoqian,
After growing up, Xiaoguang finally made up his mind to go back to Lantian Villa to see his grandfather and grandma whom he had never met.
Wang Yi scolded him and said that if he refused to go home, the two old men might miss Sun Chengji and die early.
So, riding in the wind and snow all over the city, Xiaoguang led a horse and left Chang'an City.
People say people are timid when they are close to home, but when they saw the city, this guy hesitated.
Seeing the pavilion not far away, he simply tied the horse to the edge of the woods and got into the pavilion.
He took out a pot of Xinghua Spirit Wine, each person had a cup and a pot of wine, and stood in a daze guarding a long pavilion.
In such weather, anyone who dares to sit alone in a pavilion and drink alcohol will, to the merchants passing by in a hurry, be either mentally ill or waiting to kill someone.
However, today's Xiaoguang is obviously neither of them.
He just wanted to be like his eldest brother Wang Yi, who drank a few glasses of wine to be emboldened so that he could go to Lantian Villa.
It was almost noon, and the sky and the earth were white again. Although the snow was not heavy, it still dyed the earth silver.
The little bald man sitting in the pavilion did not take off the bamboo hat on his head, and the entire pavilion was hidden in the vast snow and mist.
Looking from a distance, one cannot clearly see where the pavilion is and where the people are.
Just when Xiaoguang was hesitant, a string of bells suddenly rang in the wind and snow. The clear ringtones passed through the snow and fog in the sky and spread all the way into the pavilion.
Even so, Xiaoguang didn't move.
In his opinion, such ringing was just the escort coming from afar to guarantee the goods, and they were about to return to Chang'an City.
It can be said that when you see Changting, you see Chang'an.
The pavilion is only two miles away from the Chang'an city gate, and the small light at the moment can reach the city gate with just one arrow.
He didn't even frown
After a while, I planned to drink another glass of wine, wait for the escort team in the snow to pass, and then set off for Lantian Villa.
After three glasses of wine, he can be considered a coward. Cowards are more courageous, at least a bit more courageous than before.
"Brothers, if you work harder, you can go home. Once you finish this job, you can rest for the winter."
"Brother is right. If you all work harder, we will enter the city in two miles."
"Two miles away..."
Xiaoguang in the pavilion sighed and said to himself: "I still have twenty miles to go."
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of arrows in the snow, and an iron arrow passed through the wind and snow, hitting the snow in front of the escort team like lightning.
"Buzz!" The arrow that pierced the wind and snow was stuck in the cold snow, and the arrow feathers were still buzzing.
It seems to be telling the escorts not to take another step forward, someone is going to take advantage of the wind and snow to rob!
Sitting quietly in the pavilion, Xiaoguang's mouth twitched slightly, and he thought to himself that this is interesting. Who dares to rob outside the pavilion, two miles away from Chang'an City?
"Hey... everyone, please stop, I want to see who dares to rob outside Chang'an City!"
While they were talking, a middle-aged man on a horse who was walking behind the escort team came forward and stopped the escort carriage that was about to move forward.
Just as the entire escort stopped, two horses slowly emerged from the snow and fog not far away.
There are two men and women on horseback with their faces covered, wearing bamboo hats and black robes.
"Put aside the last escort car and you can leave. Otherwise, don't blame us for being ruthless."
The middle-aged man in front of the escort team was stunned. He did not expect that a female robber would come today.
He immediately cupped his fists and replied, "My dear, Wang Ye, we are the Chang'an Wang family bodyguard team. Please, for the sake of the old bodyguard leader, please let us pass."
The masked woman wearing a black robe and an embroidered jacket coldly replied: "No one can come!"
There were about 20 escorts from the Wang Family Escort Bureau, escorting a long motorcade. Only two robbers came in the wind and snow in front of them, and they became much bolder at the moment.
At that moment, someone shouted: "Where did this female bandit come from? She dared to rob in front of Chang'an City in broad daylight. You don't want to live anymore, do you?"
One of the bodyguards yelled: "Wang, bodyguard leader, don't talk to her anymore, just attack her with a knife!"
Chang Guang in the pavilion couldn't help but sigh secretly, thinking to himself, if people don't have any skills, how dare they rob outside Chang'an City?
It seems like these guys are just mindless idiots as Big Brother said.
Even so, he remained silent.
The first thing the master taught him was not to stand up for others casually. What does it have to do with me if the mountain is burning on the other side?
Don't wait for the last moment and never take action easily. Impulsive guys will die quickly.
The woman on the sword horse showed no sign of timidity, but coldly scolded: "If you are not afraid of death, just let the horse come over!"
While talking, the two men on horseback patted the horse and moved forward slowly, and finally stopped less than five feet away from the escort team.
The wind and snow were blowing, and neither the two black-clad robbers nor a team of bodyguards noticed Xiaoguang, who had become one with Changting.
On the other hand, when Xiaoguang was in the pavilion, he looked at the embroidery on his daughter's coat with his spiritual consciousness and was stunned.
He sighed and took another sip of wine.
"Everyone, please be patient and wait until we explain the truth clearly."
The head guard, Wang Ye, looked at the two men in black who were less than five feet away from him and sighed: "Everyone goes out just to make a living, so why are you making things difficult for me?"
"Leave the last car and you can go back to Chang'an. I'll say this again."
With a sound of "Wang!", the woman in black pulled out the long sword at her waist, pointed at the escort leader Wang Ye and said, "It's not easy for you to cultivate, don't lose your life because of a cart of goods."
Until then, Ma
The man in black on his back didn't say a word, and he didn't even have a sword.
take it out.
Perhaps in his opinion, this place, even outside Chang'an City, was originally a broad road, but because of the cold wind and snow in front of him, death breeds and spreads here.
As long as a certain escort makes a move, a fight will begin in front of him.
However, even facing a calm woman, they could not stop the hot blood flowing from these escorts.
"Stop talking nonsense and let me meet you!"
Before he finished speaking, a young escort from the motorcade came over to him. Before the men and horses arrived, he had already drawn his sword and slashed at the woman in black on the horse.
In this escort's opinion, he had seen robbers along the way, and all of them were easily solved under his intervention.
Facing this frail woman on horseback, the young escort didn't have a trace of fear.
Their mission is to cut out the long sword from behind when encountering unreasonable and unwilling bandits!
Not to mention that they have a strong team of about twenty people, and Wang Ye, a powerful escort leader.
At least he could suppress the silent man in black.
It's just two young robbers who can survive under the hands of more than twenty escorts. If word spreads, they will be laughed to death by their companions in the world, and they won't do it in the future. I used walking darts.
Even if he couldn't kill the woman in front of him, he could at least cut her with one knife, and that was enough.
"Dang Dang Dang!"
The crisp sound of swords chopping together suddenly sounded in the wind and snow, and there was even a string of sparks flying in the wind and snow.
What a group of escorts did not expect was that the woman on horseback could withstand the attack of the young escorts.
Only Xiaoguang couldn't help but sigh and muttered secretly.
Xin Dao was a little hesitant at first, but now that he saw a life and death battle, he could step into Lantian Villa openly and honestly.
After all, he is also the master's only disciple, not even his sister-in-law Ye Xiaoqian.
"Dang Dang Dang!" Looking at the almost watertight woman on the horse's back, she thought to herself, "You are an idiot. Don't you know how to fight in groups when there are so many people?"
Watching the excitement is not too big a deal, and Xiaoguang now wants to see the two black-clothed bandits in front of him make a fool of themselves.
Maybe he could transform into a righteous man and suddenly rush out from the wind and snow, scaring these guys half to death in an instant.
Sure enough, although the young bodyguard's sword skills were domineering enough, he found a slight flaw in the woman.
The woman in black smiled coldly: "You dare to go out as an escort with such a level of cultivation, you are looking for death!"
With a sharp shout, the woman in black actually struck back and blocked the young man's murderous sword technique.
Then seize the opponent's flaw and strike with a sword.
However, the young bodyguard stared at the woman's shuriken, trying to find a flaw in her good swordsmanship. With just a trace, he was sure to kill her.
As long as he takes care of the woman in front of him, he can leave the remaining guy to the escort chief.
But he was wrong!
The woman in black on horseback drew her sword very slowly, as slowly as a plum blossom blooming in the wind and snow, blooming beautifully in front of everyone's eyes.
It was also open in front of Xiaoguang, which made him couldn't help but whisper softly. I'm afraid the idiot escort couldn't understand such sword skills.
[In view of the general environment,
Not to mention admiring it.
That's right, the young escort simply ignored the plum blossom blooming in the hand of the woman in black.
The long knife in his hand cut out a terrifying blade of light, directly directed at the woman in black on horseback.
The cold blade cut through the wind and snow, making a whining sound, cutting a gap in the wind and snow, and headed straight for the woman in black on the horse!
"Ding!"
The plum blossom in the hand of the woman in black suddenly bloomed!
In front of all the escorts, in the eyes of the young escorts, there was a hint of something more beautiful than plum blossoms.
Bright red flowers splashed in the wind and snow...
