Fu Bao Pill Refining

Zhang Tianshi discussed with the Taoist officials of Shangqing Palace. He had just decided to lead a large number of Taoist officials to Nanchang City to pay homage to Emperor Zhengde, but someone came to spread the news that Duke Wei, Yang Ling, was here.

When Zhang Tianshi heard this, he was overjoyed. He was thinking about how to get the relationship between Longhu Mountain and Dang Tianzi, but he forgot that the emperor's first close minister and himself were also a good friend. With him mediating, why worry that the emperor would not favor the Longhu Sect?

Master Zhang Tian immediately led a group of Taoist officials in Shangqing Palace to welcome him down the mountain. The status of the master was also highly respected. Before Yang Ling became the Duke, he could not be welcomed by others in person.

The two of them put their arms up the mountain, first went to Shangqing Palace to worship the ancestors of the Three Qing Dynasties, and then went to Tianshi Mansion. Zhang Tianshi entered the mansion and ordered happily: "Come on, the old friend in the capital has arrived, please invite the eldest lady to see you."

The servant in the mansion hurriedly said, "Report to the Heavenly Master, the eldest lady has left the mansion."

Master Zhang apologized to Yang Ling and said, "This crazy girl is still naughty all day long. Let her come to see the Duke when she comes back. Duke, please sit in the study and let us drink tea and talk."

The two walked side by side to the study. Zhang Tianshi asked, "You are busy with official affairs and you are working to come up the mountain to see me. I am really sorry. I just heard that the emperor and the Duke of the Kingdom have arrived in Nanchang, and are preparing to go down the mountain to pay homage to the emperor and the Duke of the Kingdom."

"Haha, it's time to pay homage to the emperor. I don't dare to work and do justice." Yang Ling said with a smile and walked into the study with Master Zhang. The study was elegantly decorated and antique. There was a big word "Dao" on the pink wall in the middle. I don't know which generation of Master Tianma was written by.

The two of them sat down, and Yang Ling said straight to the point: "Tianshi, I'm not hiding it. I'm going up the mountain today. One is to visit my friends, and the other is to ask you for help if you have something to do."

When Zhang Tianshi heard this, he couldn't help but feel pounding: "He is the Duke of the Kingdom, with a high position and a powerful person in front of the imperial court. He is a person who stomps his feet and trembles in the country. If he can't do anything, he still has to ask me to come forward? This Duke of the Kingdom is not very enthusiastic for a moment. I want me to perform some kung fu that calls the wind and rain, and the hundred phoenixes to the sun, right?"

Master Zhang Tian said nervously: "I don't know what important things the Duke of the State has. If I can do my best, I will have no reason to agree."

Yang Ling hurriedly fled Prince Ning into the mountain and hid under the throne of Yao. The court army wanted to enter the mountain to encircle and suppress, and said that it was a concern that it was too laborious and injured, and that was easy to disturb the local area and hurt innocent people.

After saying that, he laughed and said, "I asked about the Shuyao at the Jindan Mountain. I learned that the Yao people in that area all respected Buddhism and Taoism, believed in gods and witches. The Tianshi of the Dragon and Tiger Sect has been passed down for thousands of years. There is no one who disrespects the people of the four barbarians. The Tianchanggong of the Yao village also suggested to me that the Tianshi should be able to convince the barbarians and avoid attacking here. Yang went up the mountain and asked for help."

Master Zhang Tian breathed a sigh of relief. It was much easier to fool people than to call the wind and rain. He thought for a while and asked, "I wonder which King Ning escaped to the village of Miao?"

Yang Ling was surprised when he heard this, "Isn't this king... there should be only one? Is there many positions that cannot be achieved?"

Zhang Tianshi smiled and said, "This Yao King is like the Miao King of the Miao family. The Lord of Yidong is a king, and the Lord of Yizhai is also a king. There are many Yao villages in the vast mountains of Jindan Mountain. Those who have close contacts with the Han people are close to the mountains. Most of them manage villages under the Yao old system, while those hidden in the deep mountains are relatively concentrated in power. The Lord of Yizhai is a Yao king, so there are more than ten Yao kings."

Yang Ling suddenly said, "So that's it. According to the Tianchanggong at the foot of Jindan Mountain, Prince Ning avoided a village called Panqishidiyao. I heard that the Panyao King regarded him as a guest of honor and intended to marry him into his family."

Zhang Tianshi pondered and said, "Begging for food on a plate? This Yao King once brought a generous gift to the mountain to visit. I still remember him. This man has a bad temper, brave and good at fighting, and has great prestige among the Yao Kings. As the Duke said, it is not appropriate to be late. I have to rush there as soon as possible, otherwise if he recruited Prince Ning as a son-in-law and became a family. If he wanted him to surrender and hand over the imperial offender, it would be difficult."

Yang Ling hurriedly stood up and said, "Since that's the case, I will immediately accompany the Tianshi to Jindan Mountain to make the Tianshi's safety plan. Should I send some high-quality martial arts guards to pretend to be Taoist priests and guard them?"

Zhang Tianshi smiled and said, "Once you enter the Yao village, that's their territory. If you bring thirty or fifty guards, you can't think of a mountain. Haha, there is no need to bring guards. Even if Prince Ning, I don't have to hurt me, even if I have a bad relationship with them, they will definitely not dare to hurt me. These barbarians are not afraid of heaven or earth, but their fear of ghosts and gods is greater than fear of life and death. The Duke of the State does not have to worry about me."

He paused and said, "Today, I welcome the Duke of China, and then the Duke of China will live in my mansion. I will take several Taoist officials to the foot of Jindan Mountain to visit the Duke of Heaven."

Yang Lingqi said, "Didn't you go into the mountain to meet that person who begs for food?"

Zhang Tianshi smiled and said, "I arrived at Jindan Mountain. When King Pan Yao received the news, he would come out of the mountain to welcome me. If he took the initiative, he would inevitably be obsessed."

Yang Ling realized after a moment of thought, and couldn't help but smile knowingly. How could he ask someone to take the initiative to take the bait? Pan Keshi believed in the divine way. He could run from the deep mountains to Longhu Mountain to worship. If he heard that the Heavenly Master had gone to Jindan Mountain, how could he not come out to pay homage?

Next, the national master would suddenly find that the corners of the Yao king's eyes were black, the seal hall was dark, the cheeks were slightly concave, and there was a bloody disaster. Then, after the Yao king was trembling and begging, he would reluctantly give advice and enlightenment. Well... it was because he pretended to be a god.

Zhang Tianshi suddenly thought that if he left, Yang Ling would go down the mountain, but he was afraid that when Prince Ning was taken out, he would have to escort the important criminal back to Nanchang. It was rare for him to come. He was about to use this relationship to expand the influence of Longhu Mountain, so he had to keep him for a few more days to climb on his friendship.

So Zhang Tianshi smiled and said, "In this way, the Duke of the Kingdom will not have to travel back and forth. The scenery on Longhu Mountain is pretty good. Please ask the Duke of the Kingdom to live in my Tianshi Mansion. I will live up to my mission and ask the Prince Yao to tie up Prince Ning and send it up the mountain."

"Come here, I will immediately set up a residence for the National Gong in the VIP room and instruct the kitchen that I will welcome the National Gong today and let them hold a banquet immediately."

After Zhang Tianshi finished speaking, he remembered that his father died early. For example, today, the master of the Shi Mansion is qualified to control the entire Tianshi Mansion. The only one who is qualified to control the wild girl is the wild girl. The wife is inconvenient to welcome guests. If she is not at home, she has to rely on this girl.

So he quickly called in another servant and ordered: "Go quickly and find the eldest lady. Tell her to come back home immediately!"

He bowed and sent Zhang Tianshi down the mountain. Yang Ling looked sideways and saw Zhang Fubao turning his head to look at him. His eyes were full of vigilance and hostility. He looked like a little mouse lying in a hole and looking out of a cat. It looked very interesting. Yang Ling couldn't help but laugh: "

Fu Baoer, it’s almost two years since I’ve been missing. I remember that I’ve never offended you. Why did I look at me like this? I’m now a distinguished guest of your Tianshi Mansion.”

"Hmph!" Zhang Fubao did not give any face at all, raised his chin, turned his head and left. Yang Ling followed behind with a smile. Zhang Fubao was not wearing a Taoist outfit today, and was wearing a plain green lichen, with her beautiful hair still loose without restraint. Her slender figure looked graceful and graceful.

Yang Ling said behind her, "Oh, you won't eat vegetables and tofu every day, right? Look at you being thin, I'm afraid that the wind will blow you away."

Zhang Fubao turned his head with a frightened face and said, "I want you to care, I hope a strong wind will blow you away."

Yang Ling never understood where she offended her, but the little girl had a sweet and charming face, bright eyebrows and eyes, and was very likable. Although she was angry and rude, she didn't look annoying, and she looked quite happy, so Yang Ling was not angry.

Zhang Fubao glanced at him and saw that he didn't mind being rude. He suddenly remembered the scene when he almost fell into the hole in Mo Qinghe Mansion and was stabbed to death by the bones. It was all due to his life stolen from his body, which made his arms so bloody. He couldn't help but feel soft and stopped talking.

Zhang Fubao walked forward with a head of mind, thinking that everything was destined to heaven. He was probably the one who was the one who was destined to be the one who was destined to be the one who was destined to be the one who was destined to be honest. He was still confused and had no idea. He didn't even look good to him. This person was really pitiful, and his heart became a little softer.

"Forget it, because we have a relationship between husband and wife in the world, after I become an immortal, I will visit the Duke's Mansion to enlighten him. If he is also a person with an immortal relationship, he will lead him to enlightenment. If he is destined to be an ordinary person, I will do my best."

Thinking of this, Zhang Fubao, who picked up the Taoist scripture left by unknown devil and regarded it as a treasure of immortal cultivation, looked at Yang Ling with pity, and was deeply moved by his generous and selfless great sentiment.

When Yang Ling returned to the Tianshi Mansion Guesthouse, he was a little confused: this little girl didn't know what she was doing, and when she went down the mountain, she looked like she was keeping people thousands of miles away, as if he was a leprosy person who was disgusted by others, but when she went up the mountain, she became more and more pleasant. She also enthusiastically led him to stroll around the scenery on Longhu Mountain, which was too moody.

Yang Ling was wondering, and his guards hurried into his study and reported: "The Duke of the State Council has reported urgently that it is from outside the border area."

Yang Ling was shocked and quickly stood up and said, "Take it and see it!"

Yang Ling took the letter and saw a big cowhide envelope with a fire seal from the military post on it. He tore open the envelope and another envelope with a small seal on his private collar. He knew at a glance that it was Adni's letter.

He had received the same letter. The letter mentioned that the Hongniang arrived safely outside the border and was preparing to provoke Boyan Mengke. At the same time, he also mentioned the open and secret struggle between Hongniang and Cheng Qiyun in a gloating tone.

Yang Ling only thought of Cheng Qiyun and Hong Niangzi's advantages of having their own strengths and complementary skills, but forgot that due to his relationship, two women who were too strong would develop into jealous women. Fortunately, he knew that even if these two men fought in private, they would never slander their public or misunderstand their business, so they were not worried about whether they could work closely together. However, he dared not have any fantasies about whether the two could cooperate closely.

At this moment, he received another letter from Adni. Yang Ling hurriedly opened his breath and read it. The recent situation outside the Great Wall was finally clear. The Hongmao was actually named the king by Bo Yan Meng. This news surprised Yang Ling a lot. Although Bo Yan Meng now can no longer be called the unique Khan on the grassland, and the influence of the king he was named was limited, such a big incident still surprised Yang Ling.

It is time and fate. Boyan Meng is definitely a hero in his lifetime. Unfortunately, he was born at the wrong time. Otherwise, with the mind and courage of this person, he would give him another twenty years of hard work, and it would be a big deal to unify the desert.

Hongniang was named Deputy Khan of the Mongolian Grassland and Queen of Beiying. She received a large number of nominal fiefs. Now, she is working hard to turn her nominal territory into reality. Using fire sieve and Oirat in winter long-distance military use requires a large number of supplies and unfavorable conditions. Hongniang has already traveled to the Onon River to build her own territory.

Due to the restraint of the Boyan tribe against the Ola and the Fire Sieve, the three guards of Duoyan and Nuergandus completely adopted the defensive force. Hongniangzi has now conquered many tribes and has taken them under his own jurisdiction, and even recruited some of the brave and warlike Mongolian soldiers into his own team.

Her war was actually secretly supported by the cooperation of the Nuergandusi army and the large amount of economic assistance provided by Cheng Qiyun. Otherwise, the white-clothed army would freeze to death and starve to death on the snowy land. But for Boyan Mengke, who was unaware of it, he could only secretly regret that he overestimated the military strength of the Ola tribe in the Onon River Basin.

But now he can only jealous, but cannot compete with Yang Ying for territory. The other person is also jealous. She jealous, but she can make substantial responses, that is, Cheng Qiyun.

An army of more than 10,000 people cannot survive on the grasslands in winter by looting alone, not to mention that the land has been granted to him by Boyan Khan. Once the tribe is conquered, it must be regarded as its own people and cannot carry out massacre and plunder without any scruples. The Hongniang can ensure that it traverses the desert grasslands with sufficient supply. It depends on the material support provided by Cheng Qiyun.

Thanks to Cheng Qiyun, half of the hard work, but the credit shines on Hong Niangzi's head. Now she has won the title of queen, and she will not ride on her own head in the future? Cheng Qiyun has always been arrogant and of course she is unwilling to accept it, but Hong Niangzi's special identity is destined to be completed by her.

Cheng Qiyun didn't want to ruin Yang Ling's good things, but she didn't want the Hong Niang to monopolize this glory. After thinking about it, she believed that since Yang Ling's intention was to completely resolve the threat in the northern border, then to rule the Mongolian grasslands such as Boyan and Huo Sieve, Yibu Laibu. Before the Wenzhu, he had to conquer the army first. It was a matter of time before the Wenzhuan rule. If he wanted to be a hero in front of the curtain, he had to work hard on force.

With this judgment, and with Cheng Qiyun having enough manpower and material resources, and a female officer like Adni, she had a bold idea, and she took Adeni as the instructor and general, and formed a mercenary in the name of the Nuergandus regiment training unit.

This is a unit composed of herders from the Yang family ranch, immigrant Han people, wandering Tatars, Jurchens, and even captured slaves from Japan and Korea from China.

Although this private armed group has a variety of races, the choices are extremely harsh. You can be just a cowardly and honest herder or farmer, but you must have the physical conditions to become a brave warrior.

It doesn't matter if you are like a sheep in mind. Cheng Qiyun, the devil-like commander, and Adni, the demon instructor who is holding a whip, naturally have a way to make you become fierce and brave, but if you are weak like a little rabbit, they can't turn you into a lion. Although the mercenary group recruits people who are not well-fed, Cheng Qiyun is building mercenaries instead of opening a good hall. This army is now being formed, trained, and completely militarized.

Cheng Qiyun found that Hongmao was now hiding Yu Boyan Mengkezhi for the time being, but when the grass was abundant in spring, it was the time when the grass was in full swing again. Even if Hongmao could quickly conquer the Tatar tribe in her territory, she was still the weakest among these forces. At that time, this hidden power might be in great use.

The only function of this mercenary is to destroy and fight. They can retain the spoils of war. In addition to the necessary military pay, the fish must be calculated based on the head of the person being killed. In other words, their wealth can only be obtained from the battlefield, and only by fighting can they make a fortune. This is a real professional soldier. War is their only profession for making a living.

Adni, the elegant and noble baron, became the first mercenary leader of the Ming Dynasty under the bewitching of Cheng Qiyun. Yang Ling imagined a handsome female officer wearing a straight military uniform, long legs and slender waist, and graceful steps walking on the green grass, followed by a group of warriors who seemed to be from the wilderness, and she felt a little strange in her heart.

The mercenary formed by Cheng Qiyun is equivalent to a secret reserve team of the White Army. With such an army, it is indeed more appropriate to form an army without any hesitation... Although they are named as a regiment, they are largely a completely independent army, which is contrary to the original intention of forming a small mobile armed force with the pasture as a cover.

Yang Ling frowned and thought about the possible adverse reactions, but finally decided not to evaluate this for the time being. He could not understand the situation thousands of miles away better than Cheng Qiyun. He could not ignore these concerns Cheng Qiyun.

In that area where the imperial court could not effectively implement its rule, in places where various forces and various ethnic groups intertwined, it cannot be used to speculate with the experience and situations of the mature and effective rule of the mainland. How to play a role to the greatest extent, protect yourself and attack the enemy. Cheng Qiyun must have known it better than herself.

Yang Ling sighed: Don’t intervene too much, let her play it out. However, in this battlefield of blood and fire, the result of success and failure is life and death. These are three wives who are as beautiful as flowers and jade. The bet is too big!

"Don't be afraid, this Tianshi master uses the best magic medicine for immortal zhi. Even if it has no effect, it will definitely not turn into poison." Zhang Fubao said seriously.

"Yes, yes, of course I believe the eldest lady." The little Taoist boy Zifeng, who was pulled to test the medicine, had a fight with his teeth. Of course, he had never seen the Xiandan. But the Xiandan shouldn't be like this. Two black pills were baked on the surface.

Zhang Fubao patted his shoulder and said generously: "Every time I refine the alchemy, I have made detailed records. This time is the most successful one. You are my best friend, so I asked you to test the medicine. Once you succeed, you will be in the immortal class. Others don't have this fate yet."

"Yes, yes, thank you for your appreciation, Miss Zifeng said bitterly, holding the medicine, looking at Zhang Fubao, who was rubbing like a cat, and having to look grateful, which really made him feel bitter.

"Eat, eat quickly," Zhang Fubao said confidently: "I want to record all the changes that happened after you eat it. You want to tell me all the feelings. If it fails, I can find out the crux of the problem."

Zifeng has been used to being instructed by Miss Zhang since he was a child. Although he was afraid, he did not have the courage to refuse. When he closed his eyes, he suddenly stuffed two black pills into his mouth.

A bowl of clear water was immediately handed to his hand, and a pair of big hopeful eyes stared at him nervously and asked: "How is it? How is it? Is it lighter? Do you feel like you want to fly?"

"I...I'm still swallowing it," Zi Feng said in a squeaky manner with his pills in his mouth.

Zhang Fubao was anxious: "Then you should swallow it quickly!"

"It's too...too big," Zi Feng said with his tongue.

"Bang", I was slapped on the forehead: "Then just chew it and eat it."

"Ha...bang bang..." Two hard bean-like pills were bitten to pieces. Zi Feng smacked his lips and his eyes suddenly opened: "Huh? It looks very ugly. I didn't expect the taste to be good, a little sour, a little spicy, and a strong aroma, so strong..."

Seeing Zi Feng’s stern and hardship, Zhang Fubao hurriedly said: “Come on, drink water, and rinse it down with water.”

"Gudongdong", after drinking a large bowl of water, Zi Feng's small belly bulged and he burped.

Zhang Fubao stared at him, and saw a layer of blush slowly floating on his thin face. He asked hurriedly: "What do you feel now? Is your body lighter? Do you feel like you want to fly?"

"There is..." Zi Feng's eyes straightened, and he felt that everything in front of him became hazy, and a moment of dizziness, Zhang Fubao's body in front of him seemed to be flying: "Miss, I feel as light as a swallow, and I want to feel like I want to fly."

"Really? Did I succeed?" Zhang Fubao was overjoyed. He quickly grabbed him and grabbed him: "Don't be busy ascending, tell me, what changes are happening in your body, you... Oh, you are as light as a swallow, you are so weak, you are crushing me to death, get out quickly."

Zhang Fubao was pressed down on the ground, Zi Feng lay on her back with his back facing the sky. After listening to the eldest lady's instructions, he got up in a daze, and suddenly a stream of blood rushed to the bullfighting. He staggered and stood up, thrust his waist and shaped his shape. He shouted: "Old Loach Stop!"

Zhang Fubao got up, patted the dust on his collar, and looked at him in surprise and said, "Boy, what did you say?"

I saw the little Taoist boy in Zifeng swaying his sleeves and shakingly saying Nian Bai: "Little Nezha is in the sea and the dragon palace, the old dragon king takes his life to force Chen Tang, his father is angry and destroys his son's golden body statue, and his master is kind to give his disciple lotus clothes."

After he finished speaking, he blew a big burp that made Zhang Fubao choked and covered his nose and retreated. Zifeng Taoist Tong held one end of his hand and sang angrily: "My third prince is on the Hot Wheel, holding a fire-sharp gun in his hand. Then go to his East China Dragon Palace to watch sightseeing, kang! kangkeng..." As he said that, he broke out of the Danfang in a crooked manner, and drifted out of the drum beats all the way.
To be continued...
