Chapter 74 Longevity Banquet (Subscription Request)

Yuelu Mountain, Xu Xuan woke up from his practice.

The first thing he did when he woke up was to lift the futon and take off the spirit stone whose light had faded a little.

Put the sundries back into the new storage bag.

Now there are two storage bags on his waist, one large and one small, the small one is ten cubic meters, and the large one is thirty cubic meters.

Thirty cubic meters is equivalent to a cube with a side length of 3.1 meters, which is relatively large and can hold ten corpses and a lot of sundries.

The two magic tools were also sacrificed and refined.

Crash!

A flying pigeon entered the bamboo forest with a letter on it.

"A big defeat in Laiwu?" Xu Xuan was a little surprised. When he saw the content of the letter and the so-called religious army, he immediately understood it.

"The religious army, drink the talisman water, support the orthodoxy..." Xu Xuan's mouth drew a cold smile.

Pretending to be a ghost to deceive the people, carrying out suicide attacks, and mixing in some masters, causing great losses to the army, and finally the Jin cavalry ended it.

This must be the handwriting of Sun Taixuan.

"Confucianism plus Xiejiao, if this continues, the situation will become increasingly unfavorable to us." Xu Xuan thought.

In the past, the Northern Expedition was relatively smooth, and the local public opinion base was relatively good, and there would be no large-scale resistance, because the policy of killing the local tyrants and dividing the land would even receive help in both open and covert ways.

Now that Taiyi Dao is stalking them in the north and using such means of bewitching people, the Northern Expedition will become increasingly difficult in the future.

While the movement to protect the religion is not big, it must be extinguished quickly.

"It's time to unify the country."

Before, I always stayed indoors, mainly because I didn't distance myself from this world.

Now I have the practice of Qi training, two kinds of magic weapons, and the art of controlling flying swords with my spiritual consciousness, which is enough to strike down any force in this world.

Qi training requires more resources, so unifying Shenzhou will be of great help to me.

"That's it."

Xu Xuan walked out of the iron bamboo forest and looked at Hong Yi in the mirror before leaving. He couldn't give up on this guy. It was just right for him to observe the Taiyin Refining Form Method, which he might need in the future.

Outside the bamboo forest, there is Wangxiang Tower and a mansion near the high-rise building.

Li Jianxing is practicing sword slowly. He is in his fifties and looks like a strong man in his forties.

Since Li Changsheng trained him, Li Jianxing has gradually entered a retired life. He practices sword every day to keep healthy, occasionally goes out to travel and only comes back for one or two months. All the mundane affairs of the sect are handed over to the second generation of Baidi disciples.

Today, Baidi Sect is spread all over the southern provinces, operating funeral businesses, as well as some charitable organizations, nursing homes, orphanages, disabled homes, etc. Most of the donations from believers fall here. In some remote areas, they are also responsible for seeing a doctor and treating illnesses.

In general, everyone has work to do. There are very few disciples who practice in seclusion, and even fewer who practice martial arts full-time. Of course, there are disciples who practice in seclusion, and they need to have a certain amount of knowledge before they can concentrate on practicing Taoism.

The so-called practice of Taoism is no longer the practice of longevity, but more of the exploration of nature. New inventions have emerged in endlessly in recent years.

Dong Dong Dong...

At this time, someone came to knock on the door.

Li Jianxing pushed the door open and saw that it was Li Changsheng.

"Master, I have something good to show you."

"What is it?"

Li Changsheng came to the pavilion in the backyard, picked up the teapot and drank it all, and then opened the box in his hand.

In the box lay an exquisite pistol, which was shorter and smaller. The most special thing was the revolver of the gun body, which had six cylinders.

"A revolver that can fire six shots at a time. The Tiangong Institute has improved the gunpowder ratio. The power of this gun is not inferior to the previous long-barreled musket. Unfortunately, it cannot be mass-produced. This gun is going to be handed over to the Tianshi."

Li Jianxing couldn't let it go. Although some people said that this thing would make martial arts meaningless, Li Jianxing didn't think so.

The times will eventually develop. Where there is a spear, there must be a shield. Where there is a firearm, there is a shield to defend against the firearm. Moreover, the martial arts master holding a gun is not at the same level as the ordinary people holding a gun.

Let's put it this way, if Li Jianxing and an ordinary person face to face and draw a gun to shoot each other, he will win a hundred times if he shoots a hundred times.

At this time, a person appeared outside the door.

"The things are good, but it's better for you to keep them."

The person who came was Xu Xuan. Xu Xuan walked into the mansion and said directly: "We are going to unify the country. Changsheng, it's time to activate your secret line in the north. Come with me when you have time."

"Tianshi, where are we going?"

"Northern Capital!"

Li Changsheng was overjoyed when he heard this and said: "Okay, I will pass the order to the whole sect now!"

There are two first-class masters in the Baidi Sect, one is Xie Miao and the other is Li Changsheng, that is, masters who have planted twelve insects. All the people who planted insects add up to nearly three hundred.

Soon, the order was passed down layer by layer.

Zhongjing, the palace.

Xu Yong opened the letter and smiled: "Has it started? Well, I have been waiting for a long time."

First, gather heavy troops, and the time of starting the war is not fixed, waiting for Xu Xuan to give orders.

In the north, the whole court was jubilant. The appearance of the religious army allowed them to regain a lot of lost territory and also made them discover the fatal flaws of Changguo.

In their view, this incident symbolizes the decline of Changguo.

"The advantage of firearms that the southern barbarians held before, now our dynasty has overcome the difficulty of firearms, and the day of the destruction of the southern barbarians is not far away." Hong Chengchou, with a pig's tail, congratulated the emperor.

He was very happy and happy about the upcoming unification of the world.

The wise ruler is alive, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. This is the highest ideal of scholars.

Emperor Qianqing's hair is gray, and his spirit has deteriorated a lot.

The civil official Fan Wencheng stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, your sixtieth birthday should be celebrated in a grand manner. I suggest that centenarians be invited from all over the country to add blessings to the birthday banquet."

"Okay, this is a good idea." Emperor Qianqing's eyes lit up and said.

It's just the right opportunity to bring the leaders of the Mongolian and Hui tribes over. The three tribes of Jin, Mongolia and Hui can be the masters of China and jointly rule these huge numbers of Han people; after a few years of governance, he knew that people could not be killed, and even if they were killed, he would not have a good life, so it would be better to enslave them physically and mentally.

"Fan Wencheng, I'll leave this matter to you. If you can't do it well, don't come to see me."

"Yes!"

This birthday banquet is called the Wanshou Banquet. A total of more than 100 centenarians will be invited. The invitations from all parties must be in place, and there is no room for carelessness.

The soldiers on the border will also be rewarded at that time. This is a face-saving project.

The only difficulty is that the birthday banquet is less than three months away. It is really difficult to find 100 centenarians within three months. Even if they are found, it is difficult for some remote areas to come within three months.

But Fan Wencheng is not stumped. The emperor wants face. Is it important whether the old man is really 100 years old?

What's wrong with some centenarians being younger? Isn't it just a way to keep their youth.

As time passed, the north and the south were surprisingly calm.

At this time, a carriage took advantage of the night to go north, and suddenly, undercurrents surged.
