Chapter 173: Snow Mountain Visit
It was also during this period that Li Fuchao, who was extremely depressed, gradually learned to eat alcohol, gambling, find fans and other fun things in the world under the guidance of others. Because there was no one around, he was drunk and lying on the streets, and his ugly appearance became a common occurrence for Li Fuchao! Until one day, Li Fuchao was drunk and came to the gate of the imperial city in broad daylight and was caught by the soldiers on duty. Only then did Li Zhengji take Li Fuchao home and take strict supervision on the grounds of being a good discipline.
I thought that the life after returning home would be miserable, but unexpectedly! After returning, Li Zhengji not only did not blame him too much, but soon after; he personally took charge of the Yipintang, which was famous in the world, and Li Fuchao, who had just turned 20, took care of Li Fuchao! He was not only accustomed to those bad habits he had become accustomed to, but Li Zhengji also let him go; he only asked Li Fuchao to continue to restrain himself in Xixia while trying to make more friends with some martial arts masters in the Central Plains. Although Li Fuchao did not dare to disobey, due to the lack of many accusations, he soon became a reborn life again in his old ways!
Although this move was subjected to some gossip at that time, it was very close to the appetite of the rich men in the world. A few years later, Yipintang added many masters to a great increase in strength! It was from this time that Li Zhengji and his son were willing to retire and left Li Fuchao to act arbitrarily. Although no one had interfered with him, Li Fuchao had been more cautious afterwards. While trying to make friends with the Central Plains martial arts world, he tried to keep a low profile in Xixia; and continued to remain humble in the court.
However, people were in trouble at home! A sudden mystery of the world not only destroyed the Yipintang, which was worked hard by Li Fuchao for several generations, but also caused the family of the elder brothers who were officials to be imprisoned! Thinking of these inner pains that are not worthy of being told by outsiders, how could Li Fuchao not regain his old good in order to get a moment of relief?
‘Brother Li, the sky is already bright, so don’t miss the serious matter!’ As I thought about it, Duan Zhengji’s reminder rang in my ears again. Looking at the Dali prince who was smaller than him and mixed in the Central Plains martial arts world, Li Fuchao admired his skills, and even more favorable to his steady and humble manner.
Seeing that the sky was already bright, I quickly packed up all the things and walked out with Duan Zhengji.' It was all my fault that I was upset yesterday, so... Brother Duan!' As soon as I left the gambling house, Li Fuchao said with guilt.'How can a person live in the world be satisfied? Just want to have a clear conscience in his heart! Even if there are shortcomings, Brother Li doesn't have to worry too much.' Duan Zhengji comforted him.
’Thank you, brother, please remind me! ‘Li Fuchao responded. As he spoke, the two of them had already arrived at the restaurant.’ Did Brother Li think about the origin of this case? ‘As soon as he entered the room, Duan Zhengji asked.’ I already had some ideas! But, but..... ‘Li Fuchao suddenly became shy.’ If you have any ideas, please tell me! I will discuss with you.’ Duan Zhengji’s eyes lit up.
’Since this matter was attacked by the Snow Mountain Sect, I think we should start with the attacked person... ‘Li Fuchao looked thoughtful.’ Brother Li said very well! ‘After Duan Zhengji praised, the two immediately began to analyze one by one. Judging from the strength of the martial arts of the attacked people that day, Wei Zhaonan was the most; therefore, Wei Zhaonan was also the most likely to see the number of martial arts masters of the other party! In addition to his later strange actions such as arrears, they all showed their crucial role in breaking through this case! So, after some discussion, the two immediately decided to go to the Snow Mountain Sect to find out the truth.
Qilian Mountain is located on the border of northeastern Qinghai Province and western Gansu Province. There are more than 3,000 glaciers in the entire mountain range, and snow is accumulated on the mountain all year round. Because it is located on the south side of the Hexi Corridor, it is also known as Nanshan; from north to south, it includes Daxue Mountain, Tulai Mountain, Tulai Nanshan, Wima Nanshan, Shule Nanshan, Danghe Nanshan, Turgendaban Mountain, Qaidam Mountain and Zongwulong Mountain; among them, the highest point of Shule Nanshan, the highest peak is close to ten thousand feet!
Because the entire mountain is extremely majestic, Daxue Mountain is not only a river valley and depression in the mountains, but also a height of more than a thousand feet. In addition, the paths in the mountains are mostly made of strange shapes and ridges formed by ice, snow and stones. Therefore, there has always been a saying that "stone bones are rugged and bird paths are incorrect."
After the two arrived, they hesitated for a moment. Li Fuchao gritted the bullet and led Duan Zhengji to the snowy mountain where the Snow Mountain Sect was located. Along the way, although walking on the snow and the cold wind was biting, it was not completely frozen after going up the mountain! Not only could you see flocks of wild deer from time to time, but also some unknown plants and trees were dotted in the mountains. ‘This is snowy mountain grass, that is silkworm decoration, and the farther away is snow lotus; because these species are extremely cold-resistant, they are also called the Three Friends of the Cold!’ While walking, Li Fuchao introduced all the way.
As they spoke, the two of them had already arrived at the mountainside of Gongga Peak, the main peak. It was strange! Although this place was above the mountains and rivers, there was no sense of coldness on the ice; instead, it made people feel that the climate was much warmer. So after coming here, Duan Zhengji took off the warm robe he had prepared before coming. After calming down, Li Fuchao immediately led Duan Zhengji to an ice cave in the mountains with his memory. But just after taking a few steps, with a shout of "Who is trespassing into my Snow Mountain Sect? Why don't you report it quickly!", the two of them were immediately blocked by a middle-aged man with a thick and red face.
Li Fuchao recognized that the person who came was Zhao Gang, the eldest disciple of Wei Zhaonan. So he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "I am Li Fuchao of the First Class Hall. Please report to Master Wei!" "The family master is sick, so Master Li is here to come and have a joke!" Zhao Gang sneered. Seeing this, although Li Fuchao was angry, he couldn't help but feel a little respect after thinking that he could still be with the master who was in trouble under such circumstances.
Then he quickly said seriously, "Don't misunderstand it! I visited the noble sect today, and there was something important to ask Master Wei for inquiries; please report it to you on your behalf!" "Okay! Master Li, please follow me." Zhao Gang looked at Duan Zhengji with a suspicious look, and then signaled to Li Fuchao.
Then he entered the back section of the cave and found that this place was quite different from outside! Not only was the temperature more pleasant, but there was also a bright and huge tiger skin in the spacious hall like a hall, from the door to the front of the hall, and the arrangement of the hall was like a bright hall. Coupled with the warm temperature, it made people feel like they had arrived at the spring warm pavilion in the south! Just as the two were tasting milk tea, Zhao Gang had already come to Li Fuchao and said, "My teacher, please invite Master Li to the back room!"
‘Thank you for your best, I’m sorry.’ Li Fu responded and immediately followed Duan Zhengji to the inner room of the back hall with Duan Zhengji. ‘Lord Li is here! I have never been to welcome you; I am rude, I am rude.’ Before I could enter the door, a powerful old man with a strong body came out.
‘President Wei is polite! Go back to the house quickly, is his injury better?’ Li Fuchao hurriedly stepped forward and supported Wei Zhaonan who came to welcome him and asked with concern. ‘It’s sometimes good and sometimes bad, and the injury is fine; Master Li is worried about it. After Wei Zhaonan responded, he immediately led Li Fu to his arm to lead the two into the house.
After greetings, Zhao Gang walked in with a plate of soup and water. He gave the people in the seat a brief gesture and first served the incense tea with Li Fu. Zhao Gang then brought one of the bowls to Wei Zhaonan. This was the best Cordyceps and a hundred-year-old ginseng that my disciple asked someone to go down the mountain the day before yesterday to buy. He stewed it together by the husband's family and made this bowl of ginseng soup to nourish your body.''Drink these things every day, but there is no trace of growth? Don't spend this money in vain in the future. Wei Zhaonan complained, took the ginseng soup and placed it on the table.
After saying a word, Wei Zhaonan immediately began to cough violently. ‘President Wei lie down and rest! We are our own people, we will not pick your etiquette.’ Seeing this, Li Fu said to his mouth and helped Wei Zhaonan to the front of the couch. Then he placed him on the couch and lay down, and immediately took the bowl of ginseng soup on the table and fed it one spoonful after feeding it. ‘These nourishing things need to be taken while it is hot’ Li Fuchao advised.
'How can this be made? I'm thankful to the Lord of Hall Li' Wei Zhaonan responded vaguely. In fact, as the heads of the two leading sects in the Western Xia Kingdom, Wei Zhaonan originally had some friendship with Li Zhengji and his son. However, after Li Fuchao took charge of the First Pin Hall, there was rumors that Wei Zhaonan had been talking about his own gossip, and after learning that the Snow Mountain Sect had always had a connection with the court, Li Fuchao then developed a grudge against him.
At this moment, Wei Zhaonan, who was lying on the couch, was completely relieved, and only a sickness was left. Li Fuchao couldn't help but feel completely relieved, and he suddenly remembered the scene when he came here to play with his grandfather when he was young. Unconsciously, he added a little more caution in his hands. Soon, after drinking a bowl of supplements, Wei Zhaonan opened his mouth and asked, "There must be something important to come to Master Li! If you don't see me, you might as well say it clearly..."
'If our Western Xia martial arts world was attacked, how can I stay out of the matter? Besides, it also caused serious injuries to the senior leader, so I can't sit idly by! So, I came to ask for the situation that day' Li Fuchao responded angrily.
‘Okay! We are not outsiders.’ Seeing Li Fu’s sincere affection, Wei Zhaonan responded and told the story of the day. It turned out that: That day happened to be the son of a lord of a lord of the Twelve Peaks under his seat held a banquet for the full moon, so Wei Zhaonan and the lord of the Twelve Peaks of our lord went to Xingqing Mansion for a banquet. Unexpectedly! Just as the joyful group returned the same route, they encountered a group of masked people on the road. The two sides disagree and fought immediately! During the battle, seeing that the other party’s martial arts were extremely high, the lords of the Twelve Peaks fell to the ground one after another.
