It was the jade pendant passed down from Duke Hu's family. This jade pendant was originally a pair. When it was passed down, one was given to his son Qin Han, and the other was given to his daughter Qin Hongjian, who was Nanyun's wife.
During the Shendu Incident that year, many of Li Tang's meritorious deeds were implicated and their relatives were killed. Although the incident was quickly resolved, these people were dead and could not be resurrected. Nan Yun's wife who had just given birth died tragically in Luohe at that time. From then on, Nan Yun made a solemn oath: The day Nan Yun returns to Luoyang, the Central Plains will be splashed with blood for three thousand miles. Since then, he has never set foot in Luoyang City.
The child left by Qin Hongjian was rescued by the wandering Sun Yaowang, and the jade pendant around the child's neck became a knot in Nanyun's heart. Just because there are two jade pendants hanging on the child's neck, this is one of them, and the other one is the ancestral jade of Nanyun's adopted brother-Fan Yin, one of the two hermits of Jiange. From then on, Nanyun has been young for eight years. He paid tribute to his wife for many years, but never visited the child taken away by Qin Han. From then on, he became enemies with his wife's uncle, Qin Han, who was also one of the Nine Elites of Tiannan.
Qingyang Taoist: "This time, my master asked Brother Zui to lead Mr. Hou here. Firstly, he could untie the knot in Mr. Hou's heart and let Mr. Hou and his daughter recognize each other. Secondly, he could help Mr. Hou and General Qin settle their differences and help each other. Crisis."
Qingyang Taoist continued: "Seven years ago, Lord Marquis abandoned his young daughter and ignored her. General Qin came from Shangdang to Wutai Mountain to seek medical treatment. It turned out that once my daughter left the precious jade belonging to Master Fan, she would tremble all over and her limbs would become cold. "
Nanyun: "Could it be that the child has some strange disease?"
Qingyang Taoist: "My master and General Qin thought so at first, but my master discovered that Fan Daxia's precious jade was made from the warm jade of Kunlun Xuantan. This Kunlun warm jade originally lived in Xuantan. In the dragon's lair, the ice dragon also relies on these warm jade to survive in the bottom of the Tan. It is extremely guarded and extremely difficult to obtain, so it is called a rare treasure."
Nanyun: "The Xuantan Ice Dragon has quite a connection with me. As for this Nuan Jade, I have indeed heard of it for the first time."
Taoist Qingyang didn't answer either: "After many searches, I learned that my wife was forced to jump into the Luohe River with her young daughter in her arms. It happened that Qin Daxia came from Jiange, and Qin Daxia also jumped into the river. It was the twelfth lunar month at that time, and the river was full of water. The cold was biting, how could a newborn baby withstand it? Qin Daxia hung the jade on the child's neck, desperately pushed the mother and daughter to the river bank, and disappeared into the waves."
Nanyun was so sad that he couldn't speak at the scene.
Qingyang Taoist: "My dear wife also passed away not long after, and the Marquis must know what happened next."
Nan Yun said bitterly: "When I heard about the great changes, it coincided with the Tibetan invasion. I led 300 cavalry from the front line to Luoyang overnight. When I arrived, my best friend Xue Shao died in prison, but he was already ordinary among the others. Only one boy was saved. .”
Qingyang Taoist: "Yes, when the Marquis saw his wife's body, he was filled with grief and anger and wanted to enter the palace. Fortunately, Yao Chong persuaded him to stop."
Nan Yun said with tears in his eyes: "Brother Fan treats me kindly, but I doubt him and even my wife, ah..."
Nanyun shouted and ran away.
At the same time, there was an "ah" sound in the grass.
Qingyang Taoist: "Who is there?"
Song Jing and Xue Ning straightened up. It turned out that the two of them had been here eavesdropping on their conversation.
Xue Ning ignored her manners and strode forward to ask Master Qingyang: "Is Master Nanhou the husband of Miss Qin?"
Taoist Qingyang nodded slightly: "That's right. Miss Xue, do you have any questions?"
Xue Ning said quickly: "Nothing, nothing."
Taoist Qingjing took Xuan Ying to detoxify him, but the medicine he prescribed was nothing more than a pair of vomiting medicine and a jar of detoxifying potion. In fact, it's not that he lost all the drugs after being drunk for three years, it was just an excuse to lure Nagyun here.
Three days later, Nan Yun returned to Wutai Mountain and picked up his daughter. The more he looked at her, the more loving he became. He couldn't help but think of his wife in the Ziwei Cave in Kunlun Mountain. She was lying there coldly, feeling so bitter in her heart that she wanted to take her daughter with her. .
Qingyang Taoist: "My sister is suffering from cold poison when she is less than a month old. Without the care of my master and my brothers, I may not be able to last long."
Nanyun said: "Taoist Priest, is there any way to save me?"
Qingyang Taoist: "In the past eight years, my master has collected forty-nine medicinal herbs, but one medicine is missing."
Nan Yun said: "Even if it is a gift from the Nine Heavens, I will still take it to treat my daughter's illness."
Qingyang Taoist laughed dumbly: "It is true as the Marquis said, this thing must be an extraterrestrial thing. My master has asked a senior monk to calculate the time. Today, I will bring the Marquis here to express your love for father and daughter. I also ask Lord Marquis to lend a helping hand."
Nanyun said: "Could this eminent monk be Master Sui from Shaoshi Mountain? The calculated time is June 24, two years later. The location is on the bank of the Ice Pond and Xuantan at the top of Kunlun."
At this moment, it was Taoist Qingyang's turn to look shocked: "Could it be that Mr. Nan also knows about the Meteor Fire Pill?"
Nanyun said: "I, Nanyun, have been wandering around the world for the past ten years just to save my wife and return her to the world. What I need is the Meteor Fire Pill."
Qingyang Taoist asked in disbelief: "The dead return to the sun?"
Seeing someone questioning it, Nan Yun said displeasedly: "This is what my adoptive father Li Xiaoyi said personally. How can it be false?"
Seeing that Nan Yun didn't take his words to heart, he didn't say anything more and thought to himself: "My master is respected as the king of medicine. There are rumors in the world that he can heal bones, but how can anyone in the world really save the living dead.
One day, Nan Yun was playing with her daughter. Song Jing knelt down in front of Nan Yun and said, "My Lord, Song Jing, please accept me as your disciple."
Nan Yun glanced at Song Jing and saw that this young man had sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, a broad face and big ears, and a loyal face. Although he liked him quite a lot, he still said lightly: "I never like to accept disciples."
Song Jing: "I am useless as a scholar. I study freely, but I can't even protect myself. How can I help the world, so I decided to abandon literature and join martial arts."
Nan Yun said sternly: "Not studying is not enough to understand the righteousness. I think Zhuge Wuhou is also a scholar. His merits are three points, so how can a scholar be useless? Just study hard and you will be of great use in the future."
Song Jing: "Marquis Wu has his own merits, how can Song Jing be compared with him? I might not be able to save my life if I go to Luoyang now, so how can I talk about the future?"
Nan Yun: "Well, we are destined to meet each other. Have you ever read the Book of Changes?"
Song Jing: "I have been studying poetry and books since I was a child, and I have already become familiar with the Book of Changes."
Nan Yun: "Even so, if you come here tomorrow at the turn of the Yin Mao period, I will teach you a set of martial arts."
next day
Nanyun: "In the past, when I traveled to Sichuan and Sichuan, I was grateful for Wuhou's saintliness. I went to pay homage to Wuhou Temple, observed the eight formations, and obtained the thirty-two words of the mantra. I created this martial arts, which is called Wuhou Eight Styles."
Nan Yun immediately began to practice the words from his mouth: "The first position is to hold the sky with one hand, and the position is Qian, thinking that the heaven and the earth are majestic and righteous, unyielding and fearless, standing upright with the sky and the earth; the second position is Qi holding the mountains and rivers, the position is Kun, with the feet on the earth, The power is endless; the third posture is Iron Curtain Jiangshan, with its position in Lei, accumulating Qi and concentrating the spirit, and the force can withstand the tens of thousands, thundering mountains and rivers; the fourth posture is turning the tide, its position is Xun, the Qi can move at will, and it can change in thousands of ways; the fifth posture is to turn the tide Galaxy Canglan, its position is on the ridge, it is strong without desire, scattered between heaven and earth, condensing the end of all things. The sixth posture drives thousands of miles, its position is Li, taking advantage of the momentum, destroying the dry and decayed; the seventh posture sweeps across the Central Plains, its position is at Gen, It is as immovable as a mountain, and is unstoppable at every turn; the eighth-style tripod determines the universe, and its position is Dui, where heaven and man are unified, and the upper and lower are in harmony."
After performing a set of moves, a cloud of white air rose above Nan Yun's head, and his face turned rosy, as if he had taken a tonic.
Nanyun said: "The moves are quite simple. There are eight moves in total. Even if you learn one move in an hour, it will only take you one day to complete it."
Song Jing followed the example and learned how to draw a ladle, but he didn't have half the power. I can't help but be confused.
Nanyun said: "Do you think that my martial arts are just borrowing the name of the sages? The great wisdom of Marquis Wu is beyond the ability of stupid people like us to comprehend. What I have understood is only a drop in the bucket and a drop in the ocean." Millet, it is nothing but Wu Hou's concern for the country and the people. You should practice it carefully, and in time, your muscles and bones will be strong, and you will be safe. When you go through the world and have great ambitions, you will achieve great success."
Song Jing: “What does this have to do with the Book of Changes?”
Nanyun: "This set of martial arts coincides with the Bagua, and it connects the five elements. Only after you are familiar with it can you integrate it and adapt it. It seems like eight moves, evolving from each other, and there are thousands of moves."
After lingering for more than ten days, Xuanying recovered as before. Xuanduan and Xuanying got up and said goodbye to Qingyang and Qingjing, and returned to Tianshan, leaving only Xuanrui to escort them. However, the three monks from the South Tianzhu Kingdom saw the outstanding people in Mount Wutai and wanted to stay a little longer. Xue Ning, Song Jing, and Xuan Ruijing were given careful guidance by Nanyun. Xuan Rui's martial arts was the highest, which benefited from the changes in cultivation and moves. Be taught by changes in mood. It was more than a month before the three of them set off again to Luoyang.
In the residence of Shangdang Jiedushi, Qin Han ordered his brothers Nantong and Nanhan to be summoned.
Qin Han: "Tong'er, Han'er, your father died in the battle outside Tongguan in the past, and your mother had a difficult birth above Hanguan. Maybe it was destined. My grandfather named you Nantong and Nanhan, and then he followed my ancestor from Yangzhou. After moving to Luoyang, your ancestor was killed by his traitorous son and moved here again. In the past ten years, everyone has achieved success, but after all, he cannot always spend his life under my protection. Tong'er, you have been practicing martial arts since you were a child, and now you have achieved something. OK, it’s time to go out and get some experience. Now and next year, the city of God will open its exams to recruit scholars. I hope you can win the Wu Kui, be sent by your orders, go into battle to kill the enemy, and also earn a jade belt. As for Han'er, he has been smart since he was a child. Having read many poems and books, you may not be a virtuous minister. Now, go with your brother to Luoyang to participate in next year's imperial examination. If both of you pass, firstly, I have worked hard for many years and I can be considered worthy of my deceased sister. Secondly, I will support your Nan family once again and regain the glory of my father’s generation.”
Nantong and Nanhan agreed, and their aunt helped them get settled. Nantong carried his mace, Nanhan carried his book bag, and each took their horses and set off.
Xue Ning, Song Jing, and Xuan Rui came to Taiyuan and saw the prosperity of Taiyuan. They were overjoyed. Xue Ning was even more curious about everything. She touched the clay figurine for a while, then pulled the mask and put it on her face. She was so happy. , at this moment a horse came quickly, and Xue Ning was so frightened that the clay figurine fell to the ground and was stunned on the spot.
