Chapter 439 Layout (8) Retreat to Wudang (Grand Finale) After walking out of Kublai Khan¡¯s tent, Xiao Yao felt lost, but saw that it was dusk, the sun was setting in the sky, and the red clouds were shining in the evening. He said Unparalleled brilliance and beauty. He stood there, stunned for a moment. In the next half month, Kublai Khan led his army to successively capture many important military towns in Beijing North Road, Huainan West Road, Jiangnan East Road and other places, and defeated tens of thousands of elite Song troops. Because a few years ago, shortly after Xiao Yao accompanied Kublai Khan to the grassland to meet Meng Ge Khan, Meng Ge was injured by a stray arrow from the Song army during the campaign in Hezhou, and eventually died in the Mongolian army. Kublai Khan, who was fighting the Song army in Ezhou, immediately returned to the northern grasslands and competed with Ali Buge and others for the throne. Although Xiao Yao was not involved at the time, when he returned from Shaolin, he also knew that Kublai Khan had successfully won the throne. Now, seeing that the Song Dynasty was over, Kublai Khan could no longer hold back. After careful preparations, he finally established a country in the Central Plains and named it Yuan. Xiao Yao successfully replaced King Jinlun and was awarded the title of Great Yuan Imperial Master. For a time, he became a very popular minister. His status could be said to be lower than that of one person and higher than that of ten thousand people. At that time, the rule of the Song Dynasty had entered a state of paralysis, people in the government and the public were in panic, and people everywhere were living in dire straits. However, the cavalry of the Yuan army was fighting more and more fiercely. The Central Plains was filled with smoke and countless beacon fires, as if It was the last destiny that burned the Song Dynasty. Kublai Khan, on the other hand, regarded the sufferings of the Song people as if they were nothing. He not only plundered, burned and killed wantonly along the way, but also forcibly recruited strong men. The place he passed was like hell on earth. Regarding these things, Xiao Yao saw these things in his eyes and was anxious in his heart, so he repeatedly dissuaded him and tried his best to prevent Kublai Khan from such evil deeds with his own strength. Although such behavior bought those refugees some temporary peace, it eventually aroused Kublai Khan's disgust and disgust. One month later, when the Yuan army conquered the military towns of Anqing and Chizhou, and their troops were directed towards Jiankang, and the entire Mongolian army was celebrating their victory, Kublai Khan suddenly announced that Xiao Yao would be transferred from the front line and retained in the country. The position of division was assigned to another person, and military power was taken back. The position of commander was replaced by A Shu, and other important positions were gradually replaced by Mongolians. Although on the surface, this seemed to be just an ordinary transfer, in fact, Xiao Yao knew very well in his heart that this was the beginning of Kublai Khan finally thinking that he was in the way and relegating himself to the cold palace. Without military power in hand, from now on, I no longer have the capital to bargain with Kublai Khan, and I have forever lost the ability to benefit refugees all over the world. it's all over. A month after Xiao Yao was demoted, Changzhou fell, and the Yuan army carried out a massacre in the city. After hearing the news, Xiao Yao ignored his own safety and broke into the Chinese army's tent. He wanted to dissuade Kublai Khan from doing this cruel thing. However, he was caught by Kublai Khan's guards and was punished with a cane on the spot. When Kublai Khan's generals saw Xiao Yao's loss of power, they originally suggested that this man was originally from Han origin, but now he was secretly colluding with the enemy, and he should be punished. Only Ah Shu remembered his old friendship, stood up and made suggestions, and finally persuaded Kublai Khan. Lie, Xiao Yao's life was saved. After this incident, Xiao Yao finally became disheartened and realized that no matter how hard he tried, he could no longer change Kublai Khan. After much thought, he finally made up his mind and resigned from his position as national advisor to Kublai Khan. Kublai Khan initially disagreed, but when he saw that Xiao Yao was obviously despairing, he stopped blocking him and let him go. At this point, Xiao Yao finally left Kublai Khan, but at the same time, he also ran counter to the dream he had insisted on until now and drifted away. In fact, when he made up his mind to advise Kublai Khan, he had already thought of all the consequences, and also thought that in the end, he might not get any good results, but he still insisted on doing it because he had already put his life and death aside. , so there is nothing to fear in the world. If you fall on the road of fighting for your ideals, it will be a splendid scenery. After leaving the Mongolian camp, Xiao Yao went straight towards Wudang Mountain without any distractions. Since he had been prepared for this outcome, he had already made arrangements. Although he gradually lost power in the court, his prestige in the Central Plains martial arts was getting higher and higher, and among them, Kongtong, The contributions of Kunlun, Shaolin, Emei and Huashan School. Although Xiao Yao did not borrow the power of the Talent Recruiting Hall from Kublai Khan, he found another way and taught all the peerless martial arts collected from everywhere such as the Nine Yin Manual and the Nine Yang Magic to Gongsun Lu'e and others. Yang Guo, Zhu Ziliu, Wan Yanping and others asked them to carefully select successors and teach them to the disciples in the sect. As a result, the strength of the disciples of these sects is obviously higher than that of ordinary martial arts gangs. In addition, with Xiao Yao secretly coordinating and making suggestions, the power of these sects has developed rapidly. When Xiao Yao walks up Wudang Mountain now, , the forces of the five major sects have spread all over the world, with few opponents. When walking up Wudang Mountain, Xiao Yao's state of mind was also very different from before. In fact, he had already made up his mind secretly in his heart, waiting for him to retire after his successOne day, he took all the confidants he met in this other world and lived in seclusion in Wudang, no longer interested in worldly affairs. He lived happily all day long and had a taste of a fairy companion. But now, although the reality is not consistent with what he imagined, For example, Hong Lingbo and Li Mochou disappeared in the world. No matter how much Xiao Yao inquired, he could not find any trace of them. However, it was impossible for them to both die in the Valley of Heartlessness like in the original work, so Xiao Yao could only guess, maybe It was because of the chaos in the world that the two of them finally found it difficult to protect themselves. Thinking of this, and remembering every detail of the time when the three of them got along on the mountain platform, Xiao Yao sighed and could only feel sad. As for Xiao Longnu, she now lives in Daxing City. Xiao Yao can take her to Wudang Mountain and stay with him in this life. Recalling the excitement and joy he felt when he first met Xiao Longnu in the ancient tomb and mistook her for his former confidante Shi Ruoxi, Xiao Yao smiled knowingly, and the last knot in his heart was instantly lifted. After all, years have passed, no matter whether she is Xiao Longnu or Shi Ruoxi now, as long as she is this person, that is enough for Xiao Yao. ¡¡Three years later, Wu Tianzhu Peak. "Master, it's time for you to teach me the Nine Yang Sutra today, right?" Although the speaker was wearing a gray robe and a small stature, he spoke with full energy and a voice like a loud bell, which made people feel a chill in their hearts. When the reputation faded, I saw that this child had a very strange appearance, with a pointed forehead, a thin neck, a broad chest, long legs, and big eyes and ears. Although he was only twelve or thirteen years old, he had a strong and majestic spirit. "There's no rush, Jun Bao. I'd like to ask you, my teacher, how is your practice of the Nine Yin Manual?" Xiao Yao put one hand on his back and asked with a smile. "Master, my disciple has already mastered it. If you don't believe it, just look at it!" As he said that, the young man known as Jun Bao started practicing in the open space on the top of the mountain. His moves were precise and powerful. Xiao Yao stood aside and stared with a smile. Suddenly, a beautiful woman walked slowly from a distance, holding a black porcelain tea tray with two white porcelain tea cups and a green clay teapot on it. Her graceful appearance made people fall in love at first sight. When she came closer, she looked at Xiao Yao and said softly: "These are the chrysanthemums I picked from the mountain early in the morning and soaked them in dew. Let Junbao rest for a while and come over and drink some water." Xiao Yao took the tea tray and put it aside, gently touched the beautiful woman's slightly bulging belly with his hand, and said lovingly: "Long'er, didn't I tell you to have a good rest? Why are you still walking around here? It's windy here, you go first Go and have a rest. Jun Bao and I will go back after practicing." Before Xiao Longnu could say anything, Jun Bao had already said, "Master, is my little junior brother restless again? He is anxious to come out and talk to Master. Brother, where are you learning martial arts? " Hearing this, Xiao Yao shook his left palm violently, and a crystal clear water line flew out from the spout of the teapot, reflecting dazzling light in the sun. Xiao Yao had quick eyes and quick hands. Before the water line hit the ground, he hooked and twirled his right hand, and the water droplets that were already scattered in the air were suddenly squeezed into a water ball by him. Xiao Yao did not hesitate, flicked forward the middle finger of his right hand, and the water ball immediately flew towards Jun Bao, and flew right into his mouth. "WellMaster, I know I was wrong." A glass of water was suddenly poured into Junbao's mouth, and he had to swallow it hurriedly. Although he tried to avoid it every time, no matter what, the result was the same, which made him very unwilling but helpless. "Haven't you already mastered the Nine Yin Manual? Why can't you still avoid it? Practice for another month, and my teacher will come back to test you after one month." When Jun Bao heard this, he could only reply dejectedly: " Yes, Master!" When he raised his head again, he saw that Xiao Yao and Xiao Longnu had gradually disappeared into the clouds and mist halfway up the mountain.
