Chapter 706: Dao Sect Takes the Lead in Recruiting
The news about the twin dragons even alarmed Ning Daoqi, who had been in seclusion for cultivation.
In fact, Ning Daoqi had been in seclusion for several years.
That time, he was scolded by the masked knight outside Daxing City without any courtesy, which had a great impact on Ning Daoqi and even changed his previous cultivation thinking.
Not to mention that the final pursuits of Buddhism and Taoism are different, he himself is not a peerless genius.
Ning Daoqi does not have the ability to integrate the magical skills of Buddhism and Taoism.
In fact, Ning Daoqi has not yet completely sorted out the clues. What should he do in the future?
This is the problem of insufficient foundation. After all, he is not a core member of the Taoist lineage, and he has not received the training and influence that the core of the Taoist lineage should receive since childhood.
At present, what he should do most is to empty his mind, understand the Taoist classics that fit him, and comprehend his own path from them. It's that simple.
Of course, if he can fight and learn from Taoist masters of the same level, he can also learn by analogy.
He wanted to go to the northwest to talk to Zuo Youxian, but he had never made up his mind.
It can only be said that his heart was not free and easy.
Hearing the news about Shuanglong, he was also quite moved.
Coincidentally, when the Taoist found Shuanglong, the two were visiting Pegasus Ranch.
This time, Pegasus Ranch was not besieged by the four major bandits.
Although Li Mi had joined Wagang at this time, Wagang's momentum was greatly boosted!
But that's all!
As I said, the internal situation of the Great Sui Empire was stable at this time, and there was no room for the rebels to play.
If it was just to occupy the mountain as king, it would not be difficult with the current strength of Wagang.
Whether it was the big leader Zhai Rang or the general Shan Xiongxin below, they were all heroes of the time.
Li Mi came, and Wang Bodang followed and joined, which made Wagang's strength expand rapidly.
But if it was too much, the Great Sui garrison in the Heluo area would come to clear it out.
As mentioned in the previous article, before Yang Guang left Luoyang, the eastern capital, he arranged several capable people in the royal family to sit in Luoyang, most of whom were military generals.
Most of them followed Emperor Wen of Sui Yang Jian to fight in all directions. They may have average talents, but they are experienced in fighting and are veterans in the army.
They are also members of the royal family. Once Wagang is dispatched, they will not be able to withstand it.
It will not appear in the novel that the Sui army attacks in waves, just like actively giving experience to Wagang.
Once the royal generals are dispatched, all the local garrisons near Wagang will be linked.
So too, Wagang is more like a green forest stronghold, and has not formed a formal political and military group.
Li Mi's influence is just like that. If he doesn't give face, who knows who the surname Li is.
In fact, after Li Mi joined Wagang, he also realized that the situation was not very good.
Naturally, he also thought about a way out. At this time, the old master Yang Xuangan wrote a letter and the two were in touch again.
This matter naturally got the tacit approval of Jia Huan, otherwise Yang Xuangan would not be so unwise.
Seeing the vastness of the Western Regions and the many forces that were enjoying the benefits, Yang Xuangan came up with the idea of helping Li Mi, the former military advisor.
Rather than letting the foreign tribes outside the Great Wall take all the benefits, it would be better to let Li Mi share a piece of the pie!
Li Mi was naturally quite surprised. He did not expect that his old master Yang Xuangan would actually go to the Western Regions to make trouble. It was really unexpected, but he was also tempted.
He wanted to make a career and restore the glory of his family!
Of course, after being the boss, he would naturally not continue to obey his old master Yang Xuangan.
Obviously, Yang Xuangan also knew this, so he spoke in an equal tone in the letter and did not put himself in a too high position.
According to Yang Xuangan, Li Mi was already tempted.
After all, it seems that there is really no future for hanging around in the Central Plains.
Under such circumstances, it is naturally impossible for Li Mi to go out and cause trouble for himself and Wagang.
As for the four major bandits in the original work of the Tang Dynasty, it is estimated that they are still robbing houses at this time and have not become famous.
The so-called times make heroes!
Without a specific environment, some people can't stand out at all, and the four major bandits are such an existence.
Their strength is only first-class in the world of martial arts. If they meet with a famous gang in the world of martial arts, they will be in trouble. The reason why they are feared in the original book is the merits of the hundreds of thousands of brothers under their command.
However, the internal struggle of Pegasus Ranch has suddenly emerged, and even external forces have forcibly participated, which is not so easy to deal with.
In the original work of the Tang Dynasty, Pegasus Ranch has a very important status, because it can provide a steady stream of excellent war horses, allowing the combat power of a certain vassal force to increase rapidly in a short period of time.
And now, Pegasus Ranch is still enviable!
After all, being able to provide a steady stream of excellent war horses will naturally make a lot of money.
No force will have trouble with money!
Besides, the location of Pegasus Ranch is not far from Yangzhou.
How could the top dignitaries in Yangzhou City say that they have no ideas?
They naturally won't go out in person, but they can let the martial arts forces under their command do it!
To be honest, the Jianghu forces targeting Pegasus Ranch are also a big threat to the ranch.
The key is that there are many masters in the Jianghu sects.
In the case of internal support, the risk factor is not low at all!
Shuanglong is a guest at Pegasus Ranch, so naturally he has to help the ranch owner deal with sudden changes.
How should I put it? The performance was quite good, but unfortunately the opponent was too strong, and both of them were veteran innate masters. The two sons of destiny who had not yet learned advanced martial arts were naturally no match.
At the critical moment, Lu Miaozi, a versatile man who had been living in seclusion on the ranch, almost ignored his injuries and forced his move. Fortunately, the Taoist master arrived in time.
After easily eliminating the danger of Pegasus Ranch, the Taoist came to explain the situation directly to Shuanglong.
Shuanglong was quite tempted, after all, this was the first time that a powerful force valued them so much.
Moreover, the other party also guaranteed that as long as they joined a certain Taoist sect, they would be able to teach the magical skills of that sect, so that their strength would be rapidly improved.
If Lu Miaozi had not spoken in time, Shuanglong would have agreed.
It was not to stop Shuanglong from joining the Taoist sect. Lu Miaozi also felt that Shuanglong and the Taoist sect had a predestined relationship. Otherwise, how could he successfully practice the "Eternal Life Secret"?
However, Lu Miaozi was a natural talent after all, and he had a glorious time when he was young. He was quite familiar with the situation inside the Taoist sect, and naturally knew that some of the promises made by the Taoists might be a bit exaggerated.
The Taoist sect attaches great importance to core disciples. If they are not trained from childhood, it is basically unlikely that they will enter the core layer. Ning Daoqi is the best example.
Shuanglong rashly joined a certain Taoist sect, and the magical skills he obtained might not be the core inheritance of a certain Taoist sect. No one knows whether it is suitable for Shuanglong.
This person directly asked Shuanglong if he had any plans when he decided to go north from Yangzhou.
This question really made Shuanglong regain his composure!
