42: The law of the imperial court

The Taishan faction is above the rivers and lakes, although it only belongs to the second-rate sect, it is far inferior to the real first-class forces such as the Seven Great Sword Sects, the Eight Great Families, and the Ten Great Gangs. But at least in these prefectures and counties near Mount Tai, it can be regarded as a tiger. Yu Zhongzi, the head of Mount Tai, is also well-known in the rivers and lakes, and there are many people who are willing to admit and sell face.

But right now, Yu Zhongzi actually threw all the face of the head of the house away from the clouds. knelt down and kowtowed for help.

Not to mention Dongfang Yun, the two young people of Monk Lihua have never seen such a scene in their lives. It is Kong Qiuqing, the leader of the Cao Gang, Hai Gaitian, the head of the Salt Gang, and the Xie brothers of the Copper Money Gang, all of whom have never seen or heard of it. For a while, everyone couldn't help but look at each other, they were all a little caught off guard, and they didn't know what to do.

Dongfang Yun was stunned for a long time, and finally came back to his senses. He hurriedly got up from his seat, walked over and supported Yu Zhongzi with both hands, and persuaded him repeatedly: "Yu Zhongzi is in charge, don't be like this, torture me and wait." Hurry up, please. If there's anything, everyone can discuss it slowly. ”

Although Yu Zhongzi no longer kowtowed, he leaned on the ground and refused to get up, crying and mourning: "Dongfang gang leader, the devil is arrogant and extremely vicious. This is a deliberate attempt to bring our entire Taishan faction to the end! Now that the matter has come to this, what else is there to discuss?

The leader of the Dongfang Gang, the Master of Flowers, and the leaders of the Salt Gang, the Cao Gang, and the Copper Money Gang, if you refuse to help today, our Taishan Sect will be killed by that big devil sooner or later. Rather than lingering for a few more days, suffering from the fragmentary pain of a knife today and a sword tomorrow, I ...... I...... It's better to die like this, and still have a good time!"

Before the words fell, Yu Zhongzi drew his sword from his waist without hesitation, and as soon as he turned his hand, he threw it towards his neck.

Except for Cheng Li, everyone present exclaimed at the same time, and each stood up from their seats. Dongfang Yun is the closest to Yu Zhongzi, so only he has time to come to the rescue. At that moment, Dongfang Yun grabbed Yu Zhongzi's arm and shouted: "Yu Zhongzi is in charge, don't be impulsive." ”

Dongfang Yun has made a move fast enough. But Yu Zhongzi obviously came to the real time this time, and he used all his strength. So no matter how fast Dongfang Yun was, the long sword still left a slender red mark on Yu Zhongzi's neck after all. As long as it goes a little deeper, you can cut the skin and cut the blood vessels directly. It really lives up to its name, the line between life and death.

Yu Zhongzi seems to have made up her mind. Despite his grip on his arms, he struggled desperately, hissing and howling, "Let me die, let me die." The Taishan faction is about to be destroyed, and I am alive alone, so what's the point? Let me die quickly. ”

"If you want to die, stay away, don't dirty my place here. ”

The sentences that were like ice cubes spit out of Cheng Li's mouth word by word, and smashed directly on Yu Zhongzi's head. Suddenly, everyone present couldn't help but look sideways. Unexpectedly, Cheng Li's attitude became so cold and hard. Compared with the Cheng Li on the lake a few days ago, it was like a different person.

Cheng Li glanced at everyone and said coldly: "This is the important place of the military camp. Idlers and miscellaneous people are not allowed to trespass. It's already polite to let you come in and talk. He still dares to cry and make trouble in the barracks? What a bastard! What do you think of the major affairs of the state and the laws of the imperial court? Hmph, you really want to die, get acquainted with each other, and hurry out and die by yourself. Otherwise, don't blame General Ben for making a noisy barracks, gathering a crowd to make trouble, and attempting to rebel!"

After a pause, Cheng Li sneered: "Taishan faction? Although the world is big, every inch of land belongs to the imperial court. Mount Tai is the place where the state holds the Great Ceremony of Sealing Zen, who approves you, the warriors of the rivers and lakes, to steal the famous mountain as your private property without authorization?

While speaking, Cheng Li slapped his palm harder and slapped it heavily on the coffee table next to him. The sound was like a huge thunder, and the hearts of everyone present were shaken violently.

Cheng Li shouted loudly: "Destroy your Taishan Manmen? That's not wrong at all, this general is indeed going to destroy your Taishan faction! Niubi, go back immediately, and take your disciples and grandchildren to get out of Mount Tai. At this time tomorrow, if there is still a piece of garbage like you left on Mount Tai, don't blame General Ben for waving his army into the mountains to suppress bandits!"

As soon as these words came out, Yu Zhongzi was so frightened that his fingers loosened, and the long sword in his hand "Ding Dong~" fell to the ground. At the same time, his legs were weak, he sat on the ground with his buttocks, his face was stunned, and the whole person subconsciously couldn't stop shivering, and he couldn't even speak.

Cheng Li sneered: "Taishan faction? phew, bullshit Taishan faction." A group of wild Taoist priests who occupy the mountains are no different from bandits, and they dare to run in front of this general and roar? Who gave you the courage?

In the eyes of this general, they are all just people who use force and violate the law. If General Ben doesn't come to trouble you, you will be counted as the Three Qingdao Venerables to bless you. Do you even want to use this bullshit identity to suppress General Ben? It seems that he really doesn't know whether he is alive or dead. If I don't give you some color to see, do you still have the court in your eyes, and there is still a royal law?"

Standing up slowly, Cheng Li shouted: "Since this general eats the imperial court and is worshiped by all the people, then naturally he should do something for the people of the world."

What Taishan pie is, just the beginning. After that, there are Songshan, Hengshan, Huashan, and Hengshan. What else is Qingcheng, Emei, Kunlun, Kongtong, Changbai, and Nanhai. All the famous mountains and rivers in the world are the land of the imperial court. Unless the court allows it, no one can claim to be the king of the land and manage the land of the court as private property. Whoever dares to disobey will be ...... No mercy!"

Cheng Li's words, in the ears of Dongfang Yun and Monk Hua and others, were like a shock, and they were so shocked that they couldn't be overwhelmed.

As the saying goes, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and the people are outstanding. Since ancient times, many of the various factions in the martial arts will occupy the famous mountains and rivers and establish factions, thinking that they will be the foundation for thousands of generations. But it is obvious that the actions of these Zhanshan factions have never been approved by the imperial court. In other words, the objects recognized by the imperial court are often not the same thing as the sects in the martial arts.

Take Tarzan, for example. It is not only the place where the state holds the Zen ceremony, but also the dojo of Dongyue Tianqi Emperor (Taishan Fujun) and Bixia Yuanjun. Therefore, the imperial court will naturally have some edicts. Dongyue Temple, located at the southern foot of Mount Tai, is a Taoist temple recognized by the imperial court. The host inside also has an official body and receives the court's money.

However, the Taishan faction, which is based in the martial arts, is not based in the Dongyue Temple, but in the Qianyuan Temple on Mount Tai. Yu Zhongzi is the master of the Qianyuan Temple.

But Yu Zhongzi does not have an official status. It's just an ordinary Taoist priest. Of course, the degree officially issued by the imperial court, Yu Zhongzi still has it.

However, the other Taoist priests in the Qianyuan Temple, not everyone has a degree, and many of them belong to the wild Taoist priests. There are also some laymen at all, but they just put on Taoist robes and mix as Taoist priests. A group of people like this actually call themselves the Taishan faction and regard themselves as the only existence that can represent Taishan. From the standpoint of the imperial court, of course, it will be very ridiculous.
