Amidst the rumble of the wheels, night gradually fell, a crescent moon rose above the head, and a few evening crows danced in the night, flying to no one knows where.
It was getting late, and the Japanese did not dare to move forward. They found a water source, set up camp, and made fires to make food.
After the meal was ready, Uzaemon respectfully brought the food to Song Xing.
After years of war and supplies being scarce, the food Uzaemon brought was only barley rice, miso soup, taro root and a small sardine, except for a pot of wine.
Even so, only daimyo-level people in various vassal states can afford such food. The price and scarcity of Japanese food at this moment can be seen clearly.
The Japanese people's craftsmanship is very average, but Song Dynasty's Song Dynasty has never been picky about food and quickly wiped out the food in his hands.
Lu Jian, who was also full and full, came over with a cup of hot water and handed it to Song Xing. Seeing him take it, he couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "That strange man saved the Queen of Tianji Palace, and what happened later? Do you want them to resist Meng Yuan?"
Song Xing looked up at the moonlight, drank the hot water in one gulp, and then said: "At that time, the power of the Yuan people in Zhongtu was at its peak, and there was no place for the Tianji Palace to stand. They could only retreat to an island in the East China Sea by boat. This island is our base camp, and we are determined to take revenge on the Yuan people and defeat the Song Dynasty!"
When Lu Jian heard about the islands in the East China Sea, he blurted out: "East Island?"
Song Xing nodded: "Yes, it's Dongdao."
Lu Jian was a little dazed: "It turns out that the East Island was founded by that strange man, but the West City was built by his grandson. It should be built by a family. Why do you say that the East Island and the West City have been enemies for generations?"
According to the legendary picture book stories he had heard from his grandfather in the past, Lu Jian automatically figured out that Liang Siqin was born in Dongdao. As a descendant of the Song Dynasty, he assisted Zuo Zhu Yuanzhang in founding the Ming Dynasty, betrayed his ancestors, and was expelled from Dongdao. And the story of the founding of Xicheng.
Song Xing stretched out the green bamboo in his hand, knocked Lu Jian on the head, and said, "Who told you that the man who created the East Island was created?"
Lu Jian touched his sore forehead and said a little unconvinced: "Didn't you say that the strange man took Tianji Palace and retreated to the East Island?"
Song Xing shook his head and said: "The survivors of Tianji Palace lost their will to fight against Meng Yuan, but that person had seen the cruelty of war and did not want to commit more crimes. Finally, he went to the West to live in seclusion, and in his later years founded Zhouliu Liuxu Gong. This East The island was not created by him."
Hearing that the strange man named Liang did not choose to be in the same camp as Tianji Palace in the end, Lu Jian felt a little regretful and sighed, but didn't know what to say.
Turning his head, he saw Fomalhaut walking out of the darkness, licking his paws, and lying leisurely by the fire. He seemed to be attracted by Song Xing's story.
After having enough wine and food, Song Xing simply sat beside the fire and told Lu Jian the origin of Dongdao.
"During the Northern Song Dynasty, there was a Buddhist disciple who became a monk at an early age. However, he was born with strong energy and a fondness for wine and meat. Although he was a disciple of the Buddhist family, he could not endure the strict rules and precepts. He had no magical power in Buddhism, so he eventually returned to the secular world."
"After he returned to secular life, he took Shi as his surname and took the name of Yinshen. With his martial arts skills, he was the most powerful martial artist in the world. He was known as 'the best person in the world and the unparalleled way in the world'."
Speaking of Shiyin Shen, the Mingyu Gong learned by Song Xing traces its origins to the descendants of Shiyin Shen, so the two can be considered to be related.
Lu Jian had a young mind, his eyes were shining and he said: "The best person in the world, the unparalleled Taoist in the world, this person is so domineering!"
Song Xing added: "It's a pity that Shiyin Shen was born at the wrong time. Just when his reputation was at its peak, the Immortal Hedgehog Kung Fu and the Hiding Dragon Mian were ultimately defeated by the Daoyin Xishengzhi of Ling Taoist."
"After the battle between Shiyin Shen and Ling Taoist, his family left China and founded the Ling'ao Island lineage in the East China Sea."
Speaking of this, Song Xing's heart moved. The words Northern Song Dynasty, Zhe Longmian, and Overseas made him involuntarily think of the ancestor Chen Tuan in the Tianlong World.
According to the sweeping monk, the ancestor Chen Tuan was suspected to have gone to sea during the Northern Song Dynasty, and the inner alchemy he practiced was called Zhe Long Mian.
Could there be some unknown relationship between Shiyin Shen, who is skilled in martial arts, and Patriarch Chen Tuan?
"Then what?"
An idea suddenly appeared in Song Xing's mind, and he was brought back to reality by Lu Jian's voice.
Song Xing looked at Lu Jian who was in high spirits, but did not get angry. He continued: "Since the release of the God of Seal, Ling'ao Island has been far away from the mainland. It has no fight with the world and is free and free overseas. It only collects martial arts from all over the world and studies martial arts intensively. This is rare. A paradise.”
Lu Jian rolled his eyes and said, "So, Ling'ao Island is somewhat similar to Tianji Palace."
Song Xing's mind was spinning rapidly, and he still said: "Until the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, Shi Tianfeng, a descendant of Shiyin God, was proficient in martial arts all over the world. He was known as 'the best in the East China Sea and the arsenal of Ling'ao'. He went to the Central Plains to compete with the world's masters, and was defeated by everyone in a row. He is a master of the road, but he is defeated by Monk Jiuru, the founder of the Vajra Sect.”
When Lu Jian heard Jiuru's name, he couldn't help but exclaimed. Leng Buding was hit on the forehead again by Song Xingqingzhu, making him scream in pain.
Taking back the green bamboo, Song Xing said as if nothing had happened: "Shi Tianfeng was defeated by Jiuru and returned to Ling'ao Island to practice hard. Although he practiced the family's Immortal Hedgehog Kung Fu, he went crazy because of it. Until he met that strange man and with his help Come on, untie your heart knot and restore your sanity.”
"After the Yuan army attacked Tianji Palace, the strange man was seriously injured and dying. The rest of Tianji Palace were defeated and retreated to Ling'ao Island, where they were taken in by the Shi family."
Only then did Lu Jian realize that the island where Tianji Palace had retreated was actually Ling'ao Island.
Lu Jian said cheerfully: "I would like to thank Shi Tianfeng for his kindness and assist Tianji Palace in establishing Dongdao as the foundation of Tianji Palace."
Song Xing sneered: "It's so difficult to start something from scratch, but it's not as convenient as a dove occupying a magpie's nest."
Lu Jian heard the meaning of Song's jargon and was a little unbelievable: "Could it be that Tianji Palace took revenge and captured Ling'ao Island?"
Song Xing sneered: "At that time, the hearts of Tianji Palace were covered with hatred. In order to restore the country, they no longer care about much."
"Tianji Palace wanted to rebel against the Yuan Dynasty and restore the Song Dynasty, but it was like a rootless tree, unstable. The son of Yun Shu, the leader of the rebel army at the end of the Song Dynasty, was trapped in the hatred of his country and his family. In order to seek revenge for the country, he actually took advantage of the grand sword debate on Ling'ao Island and seized it by force. Take the position of island master."
Speaking of this, there was a hint of regret in Song Xing's tone: "Shi Xiuming, the last island master of the Shi family, ran away in anger because of this. Later, in order to avenge his shame, he practiced superior internal skills and went crazy and died. His wife burned the martial arts secret books to prevent her son from practicing martial arts. As a result, the superior martial arts of the Shi family was lost, and the Shi family, a martial arts family that had prided itself on martial arts in the past, fell into decline."
Lu Jian's eyes were full of disbelief. He did not expect that everyone in Tianji Palace would do such a thing to repay kindness with hatred.
"That strange man named Liang understands justice well, how could he let Tianji Palace do such an unjust thing?"
Song Xing narrated it as if he had seen it with his own eyes: "At that time, he had a falling out with Tianji Palace because of a weapon, and took his wife to live in seclusion in the west. Because of him, Tianji Palace also lost the chance to counterattack and regain the lost territory. Everyone hated him. It goes deep into the bones, and also laid the fuse for the blood feud between East Island and West City a hundred years later."
"After the Yun family captured Ling'ao Island, they turned the former paradise into a military base, recruited many disciples, and raised troops everywhere to fight for the world. Ling'ao Island has become famous all over the world, and it has gradually been called the East Island by the world."
"Since then, Ling'ao Island's martial arts has been integrated into the two branches of Tianji Palace and Qiongru. After the Yun family took over the throne, it was divided into five branches: one authentic sect and four partial schools. They are all unique martial arts with extraordinary magical powers."
Song Xing said a few words, lost interest in the conversation, stopped talking, and began to practice with his eyes closed.
Lu Jian heard half of the story. Although he felt itchy, he had no choice but to leave in frustration.
