067: Arrive in Xiangyang

  Yang Guo told the second daughter about his decision, but the second daughter was very reluctant to let him go, so they both pulled him and refused to let him leave.

  He had no choice but to say: "Sisters, I am going down the mountain to practice and look for an opportunity to break through. It will take three months at most. After three months, no matter what the result is, I will come back to the ancient tomb. Sister Mochou will practice hard in these three months. Sister master, you can practice with her."

  After the two girls heard the explanation, they reluctantly parted from him. Li Mochou saw her lover for the first time, and she was about to separate before she felt so tender and affectionate. It was just for her own good, so I bid farewell with tears in my eyes.

  Xiao Longnv was used to living with him before, and she suddenly separated, feeling a little unhappy, but she couldn't control Yang Guo's temper, thinking that he would be back in three months, and she and her senior sister had been separated for a long time, and the three of them would live together in the future. It's good to spend time with her.

  On the same day, Yang Guo left the ancient tomb under the reluctant farewell of the two women.

  He also felt a little lingering in his heart, but after all, he was a big man, even though it was hard to leave the gentle hometown in his heart, but the journey of singing in the world with his sword made him feel yearning even more. Two years had bored him to death.

  Although beauties are amiable and cute, but if you are always with them, you will inevitably feel dull. This is human nature and cannot be changed.

  Before going down the mountain, Li Mochou gave him a silk handkerchief with two dancing butterflies embroidered on it, implying self-evidently that "butterflies fly together". Yang Guo put it away carefully and put it next to her body, this was her wish, he naturally wouldn't take it lightly.

  Xiao Longnv even directly gave him her own treasure, the pair of white gauze gloves, which are made of platinum silk and are invulnerable to swords and guns. Wearing this thing, you can use your bare hands to stab a white blade. It is also a treasure in martial arts!

  Yang Guo carried a bundle on his back, in which he brought two sets of clothes for washing and some scattered silver taels, with a long sword on his waist, and floated away.

  After going down the mountain, he bought a pony directly at the foot of the mountain, and rode the pony all the way south to Xiangyang.

  He remembered that the sword demon valley where the divine sculpture was located was in the mountains near Xiangyang City.

  In fact, even if he goes to Sword Demon Valley now, he won't get much benefit. There is no inheritance of Dugu Qiubai's swordsmanship there. There is only a magical big bird and the black iron epee. The divine bird To ordinary people, it is miraculous and can help a lot, but for Yang Guo now, going to see the divine bird is just to satisfy his curiosity. With his current skills, he no longer needs the help of the divine eagle.

  However, the divine eagle is a divine object in nature after all, if it can help him find the treasures of heaven and earth, that would be very good.

  He went all the way south, passed Tongguan and Zizhuguan, and spent a total of ten days before finally arriving in Xiangyang City, where Hubei is located.

  Xiangyang City is located on the south bank of the upper reaches of the Han River. It was first built in the sixth year of Emperor Gaozu of the Western Han Dynasty. It was surrounded by water on three sides and supported by mountains on one side.

  The city of Xiangyang is quite prosperous. On the one hand, it is an important place for military affairs, and on the other hand, it is an important route between the north and the south. A place where different cultures exchange.

  Yang Guo first found an inn in the city to stay, and inquired about the current situation in Xiangyang, he learned that Xiangyang city is still safe and sound, the emperor also attaches great importance to this important military area, and will continue to send troops and supplies.

  The army of the Southern Song Dynasty was actually not weak. Because the economy and culture of the Southern Song Dynasty were very prosperous, they were naturally strong and strong. The reason why they were bullied by the northern nomads was really because the generals were incompetent.

  The Southern Song Dynasty emphasized literature over military affairs. Officials in the court only knew how to recite poems and fight against each other.

  Yang Guo knew a little bit about the history of the Song Dynasty. In the Song Dynasty, there were no female woes, no relatives, eunuchs, no clan rebellion, no disasters of feudal towns, and other dynasties were inferior to the Song Dynasty in terms of internal affairs.

  But the Song Dynasty was already captured by the northern barbarians, what a pity!

  In fact, according to Yang Guo, it was very difficult for the Song Dynasty to defeat Mongolia. It was not that the soldiers and horses were not strong enough, and the weapons were not sophisticated enough, but that the fighting spirit had long been lost internally. Seek peace.

  The emperor has lost his fighting spirit, so how can we expect the nation to be strong?

  As a Han Chinese, Yang Guo has also seen and heard countless Mongolians oppressing the Han people along the way. Although he is a modern time traveler, he also has a passion in his heart to change something.

  However, thinking about it now is a bit far away. Yang Guo retracted his thoughts and looked at the sky. It was already late, so he went back to the inn to rest for the night. In the early morning of the next day, he set off for the nearby mountains to find Sword Demon Valley.

  However, facing the rising sun, as soon as he left the inn, the pedestrians on the street started clamoring and rushing towards the front.
