Chapter Twenty-Eight: Birthday Celebrations

In June, the two Huai scorching suns are headed, and a few winds are blowing, but most of them are rolling blazing waves, rolling thousands of leaves up and down, and it is really the hottest time of the year.

Even at such a time, the Weiyuan Dart Bureau in the south of Huai'an Mansion is close to the left, and the guests from all walks of life who come to celebrate the birthday of Lu Zitong, the master of the Five Elements Gate, can be seen everywhere, and it is really full of people and an endless stream.

Wuxingmen is the first big gang of Lianghuai, and Lu Zitong has been traveling extensively for many years, and he has friends from all over the world. Now, on his half-hundredth birthday, as soon as the news of the birthday banquet at the helm of the Wuxingmen came out, it attracted guests from all over the world to gather and congratulate.

In front of the main gate of the vermilion lacquer with a huge longevity couplet and colorful longevity lanterns, among the people who came to pay their respects to the birthday, there were the knights of the rivers and lakes in the martial arts of the north and south, the squire giants of the two Huai, and the leaders of the rudder under the rule of the Five Elements Gate, all carrying congratulatory gifts and lining up in a long line. During this period, there are many old acquaintances who have not met for a long time, and after taking a look, they will talk about the old days.

The servants who presented the name cards by the door were busy running inside and out. A variety of congratulatory gifts were constantly carried to the back hall and side rooms. The steward who greeted the guests was at the door, and the names and surnames of the guests were constantly reported in a loud voice:

...... "Chen Xiyuan, the leader of the Huainan Salt Gang, came to congratulate the people with his disciples!"

"Fengyang Ju Jia Xin forgot the New Year, and came to congratulate his wife on his birthday!"

"Hedong swordsman 'turning the sky' Situ Ying came to congratulate his birthday!" ......

Inside the dart game, red cloth and red silk are hung everywhere, and the decoration renders a good festivity. The sturdy man in colorful clothes put the table of eight immortals prepared for the banquet from the main hall more than ten zhang square, all the way to a bluestone slab under the steps, and then added it to the back garden.

Liu Shaoyang, Shui Xuanling, and Xiao Hei had already rushed back from Jinling a few days ago. At this time, Xiao Hei was already in the back kitchen, cooking all kinds of dishes with the cooks in the room, while Liu Shaoyang, together with Shui Xuanling and a few senior brothers, was busy receiving Haojie guests and friends who came from all over the world to celebrate their birthdays.

Lu Zitong himself was wearing a red silk robe, smiling and stroking his long hair, and constantly greeting and thanking the guests he congratulated. On his 50th birthday today, the congratulatory guests who came one after another rushed in, and there were more than 1,000 people.

For a while, the huge Weiyuan dart game was full of people inside and out, and it was very lively.

It was nearly dusk, and the corridors of the houses were hung with bright lights and high candles. The wine and food purchased for the birthday banquet were served by a group of servants and maidservants one by one. Above the main hall, along the center of the chief, there are more than 30 tables on the left and right, and the people sitting are all distinguished guests with high status and prestige. Lu Zitong and "Zhizun" Fang Tianlu and "Chipzun" Xu Yi sat on the main seat to accompany each other.

The rest of the birthday guests and friends were all arranged in hundreds of tables of banquets in front of the hall and in the back garden, and Liu Shaoyang and Meng Shaoliang, the right envoy of the five elements, and Shui Xuanling and other five-palm flag envoys were entertained in the middle.

Everyone sat down one after another, and after a polite greeting with each other, they all gradually calmed down. Lu Zitong was about to say a few words of thanks to the honor of the host's longevity star as a speech for the feast.

Suddenly, a strange howl floated from far away from outside the courtyard wall, "Wu Tianke, the leader of the Flying Eagle Gang, the leader of the gang, is here to go to the birthday banquet of the Lord of the Lu Gate!"

Liu Shaoyang, who was sitting at the banquet, felt a slight shock in his heart, only to feel that the tone of this sentence was poignant and penetrating, and it was very uncomfortable to listen to it.

As soon as the three words "Wu Tianke" came out, the people who had been quiet whispered in all directions, and they exchanged their heads and ears, and there were many suspicious looks.

Lu Zitong suddenly heard the name of "Wu Tianke", frowned slightly, mentioned his true anger, and sent out the words in his mouth far away: "Come and be a guest, Lu is here waiting for the Wu gang leader!"

It turned out that this Wu Tianke was a giant thief on the Lianghuai Road twenty years ago, so that a long whip with an iron iron had few opponents. Walk to thousands of homes in a day, visit hundreds of households at night, take people's money, such as exploring bags and taking things, and the end is skillful.

At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the strong people were in groups. This Wu Tianke built a gang on Hongze Lake and gathered more than 1,000 people. It also took the meaning of flying and called it the "Flying Eagle Gang", and Wu Tianke became the leader of the gang himself.

They set a "tribute money" to the villagers and businessmen in the surrounding prefectures and counties. If you don't pay on time, you will be looted, and at worst, you will have a bloody disaster, and your life will not be guaranteed.

At that time, Lu Zitong took Zhang Shicheng's old department to this place and set up the Five Elements Gate in Huai'an Mansion. He knew that if he wanted to gain a foothold in Lianghuai, he had to drive away Wu Tianke and his gang, so he threw himself into the Flying Eagle Gang.

Wu Tianke also wanted to take advantage of Lu Zitong's unstable foothold to drive him out of the Lianghuai realm. The two sides agreed on a time, and Lu Zitong was quite bold, so he only took a boat with Meng Shaoliang and went to Hongze Lake Water Village.

At that time, Lu Zitong was already quite successful in the Xuanmen exercises, and he was in line with the essence. And Meng Shaoliang was already good at swordsmanship, and after Lu Zitong's guidance, his cultivation improved. The sixteen leaders of the Flying Eagle Gang and the four hall masters took turns at him, but they were all defeated.

In the end, Lu Zitong squeezed Wu Tianke with words, saying that he and he were the leaders of the two gangs, and they should go out to fight for the winner. If you lose, you will make amends with money and let it fall. If he wins, Wu Tianke will lead the Flying Eagle to help everyone leave Lianghuai.

Wu Tianke saw that none of his subordinates were opponents of Lu Meng and the others, so he was angry and wanted to get back the field. Hearing Lu Zitong say this, he agreed. Although he is also a famous player in the rivers and lakes, he is not the opponent of Lu Zitong, the authentic heir of the Xuanmen, after all. The two competed, and when they reached about twenty moves, Wu Tianke was defeated.

Although he is vicious and vicious on weekdays, he is still trustworthy when he loses the competition. immediately put down his words, saying that he would definitely find Lu Zitong again in his lifetime to fight the winner, and he would be ashamed of defeat. After speaking, he ordered his subordinates to pack up their belongings, set fire to the water village, and went with a group of people overnight.

The Five Elements Gate does not break people's hands and sweeps away a big enemy. Since then, it has become a well-known gang in the rivers and lakes.

Here, Lu Zi's voice fell, and the gloomy strange roar came again, "Polite, polite! Master Lu is safe, Wu is really overjoyed in his heart!"

This strange sound like a ghost's howl came, and the chests and lungs of the thousands of guests and friends on the field were suffocated, and there were many dizziness in the spirit platform and a feeling of nausea in the throat. People who don't know martial arts, hearing this, more than 100 people have fainted on the spot.

Lu Zitong heard this extremely strange whistling sound, his face changed, and he raised his head and roared, his head was full of hair, and he was all open.

The guests on the left and right of the hall were already trembling and dizzy. Listening to Lu Zitong's roar, his mind was clear, and those who had just fainted also woke up one after another.

It was at this time that I suddenly saw the closed iron red lacquer gate in front of the courtyard, popping open to both sides. An elderly man in black walked in slowly, followed by two men in black robes on the left and right.

Everyone looked at the black-robed man who was walking in front, and saw that this person had a long face with pimples and a scar, which was cut from his right cheek to the root of his ear. The eyes of the two pupils emitted a fierce light, like two heart-piercing knives.

Looking at the two people behind him, the one on the left was tall and thin, with sunken eyes and a pockmarked face, and the one on the right had a fleshy face so that his eyes were barely visible, and his whole body was like a leather ball.

The three of them walked in without saying a word, and the two helpers of the Five Elements Gate guarding the gate of the courtyard stepped forward to stop them. But he saw that the black-robed man didn't look at it, his arms shook, and his sleeves were like a gust of wind blowing in it, and there was a whirring sound.

Before the two gangs could get close to him, they both involuntarily fell backwards.

Seeing this situation, Lu Zitong's face was as joyful and angry as if there was no wave, and he said solemnly: "What a powerful 'Yinshan Ghost Howling' and 'Wind in Your Sleeves'! I didn't expect that after more than ten years, Gang Leader Wu would actually learn the unique school of the Yinshan Sect in Saibei!"

Wu Tianke snorted, the muscles on his face twisted very terrifyingly, and said with a sneer: "Don't dare to be!" The roar of the Lord of the Lu Sect suppressed Wu's 'Yin Mountain Ghost Roar', and he is worthy of being a master of Qi Yun's lineage, so he is really a profound Xuangong!"

The heroes who were present at the banquet saw that Wu Tianke and the three of them broke in unreasonably, and they hurt people again, and most of them were angry.

Chen Xiyuan, the leader of the Haiyan Gang who was sitting at the head of the banquet in the hall, was on fire in his heart, and said angrily: "Today is the half-hundredth birthday of the Lu Sect Master Lu Senior, how can you allow Xiao Xiao of the Evil Demon Outer Dao to make trouble here!" He deliberately showed his skill of "streamering and hitting holes", and waved the bamboo chopstick in his hand as he spoke.

The pair of bamboo chopsticks scribbled the blue light, like two meteors, one in front of the other, flying straight towards the spiritual platform and the two points of the Shinto on the chest of Wu Tianke, who was dressed in black.

During the banquet, the crowd saw this scene and exclaimed, mixed with cheers and applause. Wu Tianke smiled on his face, and when the bamboo chopsticks flew closer, he waved his sleeve robe with a wave of his arm, and a gust of wind rolled up for no reason within a few zhang, and there was no trace of the two blue rays that flew in an instant.

The group of heroes was surprised, but they saw Wu Tianke's sleeve wave his backhand again, and with a "ho!" in his mouth, two black lights shot towards Chen Xiyuan like lightning. This change came suddenly, Chen Xiyuan didn't expect the offensive and defensive changes so quickly, and he was slightly stunned.

Lu Zitong saw Wu Tianke's sleeve robe waving back, he had already seen that something was wrong, his right arm stretched out quickly, Huo Di grew more than a foot, pressed it on Chen Xiyuan's shoulder, and shouted, "Brother Chen, be careful!"

Chen Xiyuan was pressed by Lu Zitong like this, and he couldn't avoid the two black lights from time to time. only heard the sound of "Ding Ding!" twice, and everyone looked over, only to see that it was the pair of bamboo chopsticks that Chen Xiyuan had just flown out. If you look closely, the bamboo chopsticks are actually about half of them, and they are submerged in the wall made of stone bricks!

It stands to reason that those two bamboo chopsticks can even be broken by a woman with a little strength. Chen Xiyuan used it to turn into a blue mang, flying and hitting the hole, which is already a great cultivation. And Wu Tianke actually talked and laughed, attached internal force, and shot out with his backhand, nailing the pair of bamboo chopsticks into the green bricks more than ten zhang away.

Such a miraculous skill only shocked the guests at the banquet either stunned or surprised. For a while, there was no sound in the originally noisy hall, and almost a needle drop could be heard.
