Chapter 1On a Snowy Night, a Tiger Comes From the North

It is the 18th year of the Yuan Dynasty.

Kublai Khan led 200,000 Jiangnan troops to attack Japan. Due to the raging sea breeze, most of the warships were destroyed, and the commander Fan Wenhu abandoned his troops and fled.

A deputy general said,"Hubilai Khan sent Fan Wenhu to abandon us and send us to our deaths. It's better to search for Penglai Yingzhou in the north. If we succeed, we will rebuild the Great Song. If not, we will suffer together."

History records: The ship was blown away by the wind, followed by tens of thousands of people.

From then on, Yingzhou (America) had another mysterious country.

……

Fifty years later.

Liaoyang Province of the Yuan Dynasty.

The north wind howled, and the snow was white.

The world was vast, and the entire sky seemed to be dyed in white fog, making it difficult for people to open their eyes.

A stone house where the hunters were resting while catching gyrfalcons and sables was emitting hot green smoke. It rose in the snow like a dragon soaring into the sky.

Creak.

A hand pushed open the stone house door with great effort.

Pfff, countless snowflakes blew in, and the cold wind howled wildly, causing the cracks in the stone to creak. It also blew the fire in the house into sparks, turning it into a sky full of sparks. Zhao Liangha, the hundred-man hunter who was stewing meat in the house, was instantly shocked.

"Liu Shisi, there's a scorpion!"

Zhao Liangha was a Northern Han. He had more than ten hunters under him, most of whom were from the Northern Liao, which was the Jin Kingdom that was destroyed by the Yuan Dynasty. Their ancestors were all of the Khitan Jurchen bloodline, and they had been hunting gyrfalcons for the royal family for generations.

Today's snow was very strange. There was such a big white snow on Mount Liuyue. Zhao Liangha lived in northern Liaoning for generations and had only seen it twice. According to Danmen Qin, a Han man who came from Shanxi to sell salt, this was because the emperor of Dayuan had died. In this year of famine, there were many mountain spirits in the mountains.

Zhao Liang shouted. Liu Shisi, who was cutting the vines with his knife, turned around and jumped in shock.

There were many birds of prey and insects in this old forest, such as gyrfalcons, silver rats, green rats, wild boars, etc. There were also wolves, black blind men, and big insects. On such a snowy day, the big insects couldn't find food. When they smelled the blood and qi of people, their eyes turned red and drooled. They could even chase after people from dozens of miles away...

Even the savage Jurchen didn't dare to spend the night in the forest.

The old forest where they were hunting gyrfalcons was located at the junction of Liaoyang and North Ridge, and there were few people. This person could actually find his way here in the white snow where he could not even see his own fingers. Could he be a mountain ghost or a tiger demon?

The two of them were shocked. They held their saber hilts and turned sideways, ready to fight.

Looking closely, he saw a fierce man wearing animal skin, with the back of a tiger and the waist of a bee, lying in the blizzard at the door. His face was weathered and his lips were cracked. He shouted hoarsely in the whistling snow,"Two heroes, do you have tea?"

"A person?"

Zhao Liangha and Liu Shisi looked at each other.

Before he could answer, the man saw the wyvern meat soup they were stewing. His eyes widened and he quickly closed the door of the stone house and leaned it against a stone. Then, he pounced on the stove and picked up the birch-bark tube that was burning the fire. He scooped up a few mouthfuls of soup and drank it.

Zhao Liangha and Liu Shisi were both bewildered. Zhao Liangha was holding a hunting knife, but when he saw that this person was tall and muscular, with a heavy long knife on his back, he thought for a moment, put down the hunting knife, and picked up the hunting fork that was used to fork wild boars.

"Huhu, thank you for saving my life. Otherwise, I would have died here today."

The fur-clad man said gratefully as he sipped the hot soup from the birch-bark tube.

He ate very quickly. The big pot of Wyvern Meat Soup was not enough for him to drink.

Because he was strong and had a weapon on his back, Zhao Liangha and Liu Shisi secretly told them that they might not be able to defeat him in this stone house. Moreover, the weather was as cold as frost. If they were injured and could not hand over the official's work, they were afraid that they would be exploited by the lecherous officials and sell their children. They might even have to sell their bodies to the rich as slaves.

Therefore, the two of them were bewildered and did not dare to speak. They stared at the muscular man in beast skin.

After drinking the entire pot of Flying Dragon Meat Soup, the man in animal skin put down the pot and wiped his mouth with his sleeve. He then turned around and grinned."Are you two people of Dayuan?"

Zhao Liangha and Liu Shisi looked at each other.

The two of them still felt that this person was suspicious. Zhao Liangha frowned and asked,"It's a barren mountain. There's no Zhan Chi within a five-hundred-mile radius of this place. Where did you come from?"

Zhan Chi was the relay station.

Zhao Liangha wasn't someone who had never seen the market before. In Da Yuan's household register, apart from military households and station households, the only households that had a higher status than salt households and craftsmen were those who were arrested. As for the ninth-grade Confucian households, they were still far inferior to them.

Every year, the hunters of Dayuan were ordered to go out and capture all kinds of rare birds and beasts, offering fur, eagles, and falcons.

The muscular man in animal skin picked up a piece of wyvern meat and wolfed it down."Brothers, I'm not a bad person. I'm a teacher."

"Looking at your attire, are you hunters here?"

Dayuan referred to the Taoist priests as "Mister."

Hearing this, Zhao Liangha sized him up again. He saw that this person had a tall and slender figure, bright eyes, and a figure. However, his cheeks were red like a youth.

However, he was wearing a beast fur coat and did not look like a Daoist at all.

Because Genghis Khan respected the living immortal, Changchun Zhenren Qiu Chuji's immortal method, Liaoyang and Lingbei provinces, during the era of Emperor Kublai Khan of the Great Yuan Dynasty, Taoism was very prosperous, and the Taoist leader Zhao Zhijing had hundreds of thousands of disciples in the world.

However, the Great Emperor Kublai Khan held a Dharma King's Sutra Debate Conference and summoned the leaders of various sects to debate the scriptures. Zhao Zhijing, the head of Quanzhen Taoism, led hundreds of Taoists, but he could not win against the seventeen-year-old Tibetan monk Ba Siba. In the end, he was ordered by the Great Emperor Kublai Khan to shave his head and become a monk on the spot to cultivate Buddhism.

Since then, Quanzhen Taoism and Tianshi Zhengyi Taoism had gradually declined in North Ridge and Liaoyang. Now, most of them were monks preaching, and it was rare to see a Taoist priest.

"Since you're a Taoist priest from a Taoist temple, why did you come to Gada?" Zhao Liangha was puzzled.

The fur-clad man grinned."Brothers, my name is Chen Sijiu. I'm a Taoist master from Iron Peak Mountain who was ordered to refine pills for the Great Emperor in the Gathering of Virtuous Courtyard of Dadu. I got lost in the wind and snow and ended up here."

Zhao Liangha and Liu Shisi slowly let down their guard when they heard that this fur-clad man, Chen Sijiu, was a Taoist priest who went to the Gathering Hall of Virtues in Dadu.

The fur-clad man took out his Dao disc to verify it.

The people of Dayuan were free to come and go, and they did not need a travel pass. The Taoist plate waist token could more clearly indicate their identity. Only then did the two invite him to sit down and talk over the fire.

Dayuan set up Jixian Yuan, Chongfu Department, Hui Hui Hadesuo, which were in charge of Taoism, Buddhism, Nestoria, Tianfang Sect and many other affairs.

Most of the Taoist priests who were summoned to Dadu were highly accomplished. At least, they were very good at refining the elixir that could liven up the erotic palace. The Right Prime Minister of Dayuan, Yan Timur, liked the elixir refined by the Taoist priest very much. It was said that after taking it, with the help of the Great Joy Technique of the Tantra lama, it could control dozens of women every day. It was really powerful.

Taoist priests were good at medicine, and the hunters often had to deal with bruises, swelling, golden sores, and miasma, so Zhao Liangha and Liu Shisi were quite polite.

However, the two of them were a little dissatisfied that Chen Sijiu had finished the entire pot of Flying Dragon Meat Soup alone, especially Liu Shisi. He was using a spoon to stir the pot of stewed meat a few times while picking up the meat cubes inside to eat. He muttered and rolled his eyes at Chen Sijiu.

Chen Sijiu ignored him. He untied the bag on his back and took out a strange-looking giant bow. He muttered,"Master didn't lie to me. It's so cold in northern Liao. Fortunately, we were prepared."

He shook off the snow water on his body and adjusted his animal skin coat, revealing his tiger-like shoulder muscles. He sucked and inhaled for a while. In less than ten breaths, his face gradually turned red, and his eyes shone like a hawk. He turned to Zhao Liangha and Liu Shisi and smiled,"Brothers, I ate a pot of meat soup from you two earlier. Let's catch a big bug and have some meat with you."

As he spoke, he walked over and picked up Zhao Liang's hunting fork. He weighed it in his hand and said regretfully,"It's a little light, but it's enough."

He burned the hunting fork in the fire pit and sharpened it on a rock. Then, he turned back to Zhao Liangha and Liu Shisi, who were stunned."This big worm is starving. It has been following us for more than two hundred miles. I think it must be starving!"

As he spoke, he took a deep breath and held his breath until his face turned red. His eyes shone brightly as he pushed open the door of the stone house made of wooden sticks and birch bark. Feng Fengxue rolled out on the ground.

"Tiger!"

Chen Sijiu roared loudly. His waist was like a dragon, and his strength came from his spine. He used the hunting fork as an arrow and pulled the bull-horned bow into a full moon. His eyes were like a hunting falcon sticking to the bowstring. In the snowstorm, he instantly locked onto the giant insect that was as tall as a person under the old pine tree not far away.

At this moment, his strength had reached the peak of the tension in his spine and waist. He released the aura in his chest and shot an arrow!

Roar!

Amidst the white snow, a tiger with bloodshot eyes and drooling mouth was shot in the eye by the arrow just as it was in mid-air. It was sent flying by the force of the arrow and crashed into a hundred-year-old tree, losing its life!

Its painful roar could be heard in the surrounding five kilometers of forest. Immediately, birds flew away and countless wild beasts fled.

Chen Sijiu's cold eyes slowly retracted. He shook off the snow on his body and turned to look at Zhao Liangha and Liu Shisi, who had been hunting for generations in the stone house. They had never seen such a fierce scene in their lives. They were scared silly by the scene of hunting a tiger alone. Chen Sijiu grinned and said,"Two heroes, I said I would treat you to tiger meat."

PS: Cold Knowledge, Shi Naian, Liu Bowen, and Li Shanchang were all students of the same imperial examination in the Yuan Dynasty. Shi Naian and Liu Bowen passed the imperial examination, while Li Shanchang failed. As everyone knows, failing scholars are very scary.
