"Guan Jia, the identity of the god in Guishan has been found out."
As the capital of the Song Dynasty, Bianliang City in Tokyo was extremely prosperous. Just Zhang Zeduan's painting of Along the River During the Qingming Festival is enough to let future generations know how prosperous Bianliang City in Tokyo was.
However, since the founding of the Song Dynasty by Taizu Zhao Kuangyin, six generations of kings have passed down to Zhao Xu.
With the six generations of kings ruling the world, various problems were inevitable in the Song Dynasty.
There are redundant officials and officials inside, and the Liao Kingdom is eyeing it outside.
Especially since the Song Zhenzong period, when the Song Dynasty and the Liao Dynasty signed the Chanyuan Alliance, the Song Dynasty had to give a lot of coins to the Liao Kingdom every year in order to maintain this fragile peace.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this coin is just money to buy peace, and it is also raising the risk of tigers.
But after Song Taizong, Zhao Guangyi and Yongxi's Northern Expedition failed, the Song Dynasty was still more in awe of the Liao Kingdom. Coupled with the loss of Yanyun's Sixteen Prefectures, the Song Dynasty lost confidence in the Liao Kingdom.
The annual coins alone were a large expense for the Song Dynasty, not to mention that with the decline of the Song Dynasty, small countries around the Song Dynasty began to look covetously at the Song Dynasty.
In the northwest of the Song Dynasty, Dangxiang people founded a country called Xixia.
There is a country named Tubo in the west, and even the Duan family established a country in Dali in the southwest.
Liao Kingdom in the north, Xixia in the northwest, Tubo in the west, and Dali in the southwest. I am afraid that even Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin himself never thought that after he settled in the Central Plains, his family would become a piece of fat that anyone could take a bite of in later generations.
It was against this background that Zhao Xu, Shenzong of the Song Dynasty, enabled Wang Anshi to carry out reforms.
The seriousness of redundant officials and redundant officials, as well as the annual increase in annual coins, further tightened the finances of the Song Dynasty. If Wang Anshi's reform was successful, although the Song Dynasty would not be able to destroy the Qing Dynasty, at least it would be able to maintain the prosperity of the Song Dynasty for several decades.
It is a pity that with the failure of Wang Anshi's reform, Song Shenzong Zhao Xu also lost some of his former vigor in recent years. Although he wanted to continue to implement reforms, without Wang Anshi in the court, it would be extremely difficult for him to take action again.
Especially as he gets older, Zhao Xu also feels that his energy is not as good as before.
In addition, part of the reason for the failure of the previous reform was that those in the temple relied on heaven as their basis. Under such circumstances, Song Shenzong Zhao Xu also inherited traditional arts and began to slowly become interested in the theory of ghosts and gods.
It's just that Song Shenzong was still a wise king. Although he was in awe of this ghost and god, he didn't devote the whole country to seeking immortality.
But Dabie Mountain was called Turtle Mountain in ancient times.
The news of the birth of Qilin in Guishan Mountain and the appearance of gods spread more and more widely. Nearly a month has passed, and the incident at the Guishan Shenren Dojo has not only not disappeared slowly with the passage of time, but has intensified.
This naturally attracted Song Shenzong Zhao Xu to become more and more interested. He, Song Shenzong, was also ambitious when he was a young man. It's just that there are too many constraints in this temple, and people's hearts are mixed. Even if they are ambitious, they can only support Wang Anshi's two reforms.
Even though Wang Anshi had resigned at this time, Song Shenzong still maintained the superficial reforms, which also proved that Song Shenzong Zhao Xu's heart was not cold.
But Song Shenzong also knew that although he tried hard to maintain the reform, the failure of this reform was foreseeable.
Under such circumstances, Zhao Xu suddenly heard that a god was born, and Zhao Xu also wanted to ask the god how strong the Zhao family was, and what the future of the Song Dynasty would be like!
"Let's talk!"
Zhao Xu had a bit of interest on his face as he listened to what his companion beside him said.
The noise that Yuan Sheng made in Guishan was so great that even after hearing what happened that day, Zhao Xu knew that it was definitely not something that some charlatan could create.
Whether it's the thundering unicorn that can be seen for hundreds of miles around, or the god-man who emits immeasurable divine light that shines for hundreds of miles.
Situations like these are definitely not things that charlatans can create.
Although he really wanted to go to Guishan to meet this legendary god. However, due to the complicated situation of the documents and the complicated undercurrents surging in the court, even though he was a noble person, he was still trapped in this small imperial city.
"Guan family, this Guishan god's original name is Wang Qi. He is from Xiaowang Village, Huoshan County, under the rule of Liu'an on Huainan West Road."
"A secret agent checked Wang Qi's birthplace and found out that he was ten or fifteen years old."
"The divine man Wang Qi offended the Wang family, a wealthy family in the countryside, when he was last year, so his family fled Guishan and became a hermit in the mountains."
"In March of this year, some people in Xiaowang Village said that the Wang family, a wealthy family, sent people into the mountains and killed all three members of the family, including Wang Qi."
"I just don't know what kind of fate this god Wang Qi has. By May, there will be many legends about the yellow demon in Guishan Mountain."
"The yellow demon can speak human words. It is the size of a fierce horse, and it runs like a yellow thunder. Everyone in Xiaowang Village knows that this yellow demon was originally a yellow dog in the family of the god Wang Qi. He lived for more than ten years."
"Many people in the countryside speculate that the god Wang Qi came back from the dead when he gained enlightenment. This yellow dog followed the fate and turned into a demon from a mortal dog."
"At dusk on June 29th, Turtle Mountain was suddenly covered with thirty miles of black clouds, and thunder flickered among the black clouds."
"A moment later, another azure blue thunder unicorn appeared in the thunder. Between the birth and arrival of the thunder unicorn, all the black clouds that had been stirred for thirty miles dispersed, and then the god Wang Qi shined with immeasurable divine light."
"In the second half of the month, there were many Jianghu travelers coming and going in Guishan."
"Some of these Jianghu people have greatly improved their skills in one day. There are old Taoist priests who have grown up in black hair in one day. There are local Confucian scholars who insist that they have cultivated a breath of great righteousness. However, after observation, what the Confucian scholars have cultivated is just a breath of true energy."
"According to the rumors of these quacks, there are immortal energies escaping in the deity's dojo, and there are strange flowers and plants."
"Even if you don't have the opportunity to eat exotic flowers and herbs, just breathing this immortal energy will have the effect of preventing all kinds of illnesses."
"The day before yesterday, there was a Bai Lian floating in the sky in Guishan Mountain. Bai Lian spent ten breaths to cross dozens of miles to reach Huoshan County."
"The secret report said that Bai Lianzhong is a figure."
"That figure has the ability to control wind and fire. It took only half a stick of incense to turn all the wealthy Wang family into ashes."
"The white figure may be the god-man Wang Qi, or there are other explanations, but the various behaviors of the god-man Wang Qi have been witnessed by hundreds of thousands of people. I think he must be a true god and a true man."
The eunuch companion beside Zhao Xu bowed his head and whispered all the information he had learned about Yuan Sheng.
Especially when the eunuch's companion talked about the various experiences of the Jianghu guest, he could not hide his envy in his words.
Since it is the world of Tianlong, this eunuch is naturally not incompetent in martial arts. He can be with Zhao Xu for a long time. The martial arts attainments of this eunuch's companion have reached the level of cultivating true energy. It is said that picking flowers and flying leaves can hurt people. and other realm levels.
This level of strength is still at a high level even in the world of martial arts.
But it took the eunuch Daban for forty years to penetrate the twelve main meridians, open up the eight extraordinary meridians, and develop a body of true energy.
And then I heard that some Confucian scholars just entered the God's Dojo and cultivated their true energy. How could this not make the eunuch's companion feel envious? Even the eunuch's companion himself yearned for the God's Dojo.
"Resurrection from the dead, Qilin born and descended, emitting immeasurable light, and Lingxu controlling the sky, harnessing the power of wind and fire..."
"My dear friend, have you ever heard of such a person in the world?"
Zhao Xu's expression also changed slightly. After a while, he murmured softly again and turned his attention to the eunuch companion in front of him. Among the emperors of the five generations of the Zhao family, there were many jokes that regarded martial arts masters as being among the gods.
This is normal. At least Zhao Xu himself knew that after those Jianghu people cultivated their true energy, they could move their true energy almost several feet across the air, and they were as light as a swallow when they moved.
"this……"
"When I return to my official home, I have never heard of such a person since the founding of the country."
"Even in recent years, Songshan Shaolin, which has said that the world's martial arts originated from Shaolin, the founder of the sect, Bodhidharma, only left a legend of crossing the river with a reed."
"Lingxu has been flying for more than ten miles in the sky. Such a character is beyond common sense."
"Even if one's true energy is strong and powerful, the limit is only to be able to fly ten feet, let alone ten miles in ten breaths."
The eunuch companion listened to Zhao Xu's words, pondered for a moment and then slowly shook his head.
It is precisely because he is proficient in martial arts and has practiced martial arts to an extremely profound level that the eunuch companion knows how exaggerated the legendary god Lingxu is in the sky for more than ten miles.
"I'm not a Jianghu person..."
Zhao Xu's eyes flickered again as he listened to the words of the eunuch's companion. After he pondered for a moment, he studied the ink himself. A moment later, Zhao Xu wrote another handwritten letter.
"Send someone to deliver the letter to Mr. Linchuan. When Mr. Linchuan sees my letter, he will know what the official means."
Zhao Xu handed the letter in his hand to the eunuch companion in front of him. After seeing the eunuch companion leave, Zhao Xu walked out of the imperial study again and only looked at the bright stars in the sky and the lights of thousands of houses in Bianliang City.
But when there was no one around, the official family of the Song Dynasty could not be as cool and unrestrained as the people in the market said. There was nothing but depression and depression between their brows.
"There are gods and men coming from time to time. Although I am not a person like Jia Yi who doesn't ask about the people and ghosts and gods, but where will the Song Dynasty go?"
After a long time, Zhao Xu sighed softly again, but no one heard this sigh, and it just disappeared in the night with the wind.
But at this time, in Guishan, the dojo of gods mentioned by the people in the world, the old yellow dog was standing on the edge of the cliff with his young master, looking at the stars in the sky.
At this time, Yuan Sheng was dressed in brocade clothes, standing on the cliff with his hands and looking up at the sky.
The thousands of stars in the sky and the long river of stars that seemed to run through time and space in the universe were all reflected in the young man's eyes at this moment.
If those Jianghu people or people in the market took one look at this young man, I am afraid they would have no doubt that this young man is the god of the mountains.
But when the young man looked at the sky, there was a hint of unhappiness in his eyes.
Although the old yellow dog behind the boy didn't know what his master was looking at, from that day on, the old yellow dog also noticed that his young master was looking at the sky for longer and longer periods of time.
Especially that kind of look, as if his little master was confronting and communicating with some invisible being?
