The land of Guanzhong, fertile fields for thousands of miles, since ancient times is the residence of the emperor, Qin, the two Han Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty and the chaotic two Jin periods, whether it is a unified dynasty, or a prince, will be regarded as the foundation of the hegemony, but unfortunately with the excessive reclamation of thousands of years, the land in Guanzhong has long been not as fertile as it was at the beginning.

Since the two Song Dynasty, it has become a barren border pass of the land, after Meng Yuan seized the world, there is not much attention to this land, Huashan and the ancient tomb two sects of development no matter how big, limited by the environment, can not set off any waves.

Only the Mingjiao members in the Central Plains and the Yangtze River are the henchmen of Meng Yuan.

Therefore, Huashan wantonly sent disciples to compete for territory in the sweet and cool land, and continued to expand, which only made the Mengyuan court vigilant, and then let it go, preparing to calm the big trouble of Mingjiao first, and then clean up Huashan.

Gao Cheng led the Mingjiao people all the way to Kongtong Mountain, which nominally belongs to Ganzhou, but in fact it is not far from Chang'an, but it is only three hundred miles away. It's just that Guanzhong already has two major sects, Huashan and Ancient Tomb, and the Kongtong faction can only expand to the west, occupying Ganzhou and Liangzhou, including part of the Western Regions in its heyday.

Now Kongtong has been hit by the extermination faction, and most of the territory has been divided by other second-rate and third-rate sects, so it can only rely on the support of Huashan to tightly guard the mountain gate.

On the way back, Gao Cheng had already spread the news, so when he was about to arrive at Kongtong, he asked Yin Tianzheng and Yin Yewang and his son to go south first, meet near Xiangyang, and then go to Wudang Baishan.

"Master!"

"You're finally back, boss!"

After getting the news, the second elder of Huashan, Yue Muyuan, and several high-level Huashan officials gathered in Kongtong, Tang Wenliang and Hu Bao were nominally the masters, but they couldn't interject at all, and could only stand aside with a sneering expression.

Gao Cheng looked at everyone's expressions, and couldn't help but smile, and said, "Nothing major happened during the time I left, right?

Yue Muyuan said: "We have nothing to do in Huashan, but we heard that many masters of the Explanation Sect suddenly gathered at Guangmingding, and we don't know what big moves we are going to make, so the attention of the Mengyuan Imperial Court is attracted by them, and we have no time to pay attention to us." ”

Gao Cheng nodded, and then Yue Muyuan began to report on the development of Huashan's power these days, at this time, it had been several months since Gao Cheng ordered to recruit disciples, and the entire Guanzhong was full of Huashan disciples, and he had become the de facto overlord of Guanzhong.

In addition, Huashan's basic martial arts inevitably spread to the rivers and lakes, but this did not affect Huashan, but made it more influential.

After personally practicing the Huashan swordsmanship, many people in the rivers and lakes couldn't help but sigh that the sentence of punching out of Shaolin and returning the sword to Huashan really makes sense. Huashan is famous for its swordsmanship, and the people in the rivers and lakes secretly gave the Huashan faction the title of Huashan Sword School.

Many families outside Guanzhong, as well as wealthy merchants and landlords, also moved their minds when they saw the rising momentum of Huashan, and came to learn from thousands of miles away.

Seeing this situation, several sects that were known as Huashan couldn't help but want to imitate it, but at this time, they found that this method did not have much effect on their own sects.

Among them, Shaolin is a Buddhist door, in addition to the devout Buddhist believers in the world, there is no landlord and wealthy businessman who is willing to send his descendants into the monk temple, even if Shaolin is willing to open the mountain gate, there are not many people to apprentice.

The Wudang faction is very calm, with Zhang Sanfeng, a great master in ancient times, in charge, although the number of disciples is small, but they are all elites. The situation of Emei and Shaolin is similar, in the eyes of the world, it is a nunnery, and the ancient tombs are all female disciples......

Among the big factions in the entire rivers and lakes, only Huashan does not have so many restrictions, and the Taoist and Confucian confluence, whether it is a female disciple or a male disciple, a Taoist priest or an ordinary person, can come to learn the arts.

Gao Cheng was very satisfied when he heard that Huashan was growing. Hua Shan is also very important in his plan, just like he said on the top of the light, overthrowing Meng Yuan requires the gathering of the power of the world's heroes, and the reputation of the Ming Sect in the righteous path of the rivers and lakes is too bad, and it must rely on the power of Hua Shan.

Mingjiao calls on the heroes of the world, Huashan unites the righteous path of the rivers and lakes, and the two go hand in hand to achieve great things.

He asked, "Uncle I've worked hard these days, I told you last time that I was going to have a disciple competition, I don't know if you have arranged it?"

Gao Dasong, one of the two elders of Huashan, laughed and said: "Of course we will not forget the things explained by the master, not long ago the first big competition in Huashan ended, and there are several talented disciples among them, and their hearts and martial arts are very good!"

Gao Cheng's eyes moved, and he asked, "Oh, which disciples are there?" If they are really talented, I will choose one of them to be accepted as an apprentice, and I will be able to inherit the Dao system of Huashan in the future!"

Gao Dasong was slightly stunned when he heard this, the head of the family looked only in his twenties at this time, very young, and at this time he was thinking about accepting apprentices and looking for an heir, it was too early.

However, he thought about it, the recent batch of disciples, except for those who were over twenty years old, were destined to become ordinary disciples. A large number of disciples are only seven or eight years old, and this age is a good time to lay the foundation.

If the head of the sect accepts apprentices and cultivates them well, twenty years later, Huashan will have another top master in the rivers and lakes. The two of them are already old, and they may not live another twenty years. At this time, cultivate a few masters, and replace them in the future.

When Yue Muyuan heard this, he hurriedly said: "Head of Qiqi, there were five disciples who were the best in the last Dabi, namely Ning Qingyu, Yue Su, Feng Qingyang, Cai Zifeng and Lin Qingyuan. The five of them are all innocent people, and if the head of the sect accepts disciples, he can consider them among them!"

Gao Cheng's heart shook slightly, "Feng Qingyang, Yue Su and Cai Zifeng, these three names are so familiar, especially Feng Qingyang, this future sword saint, will he appear now?"

Among them, Yue Su and Cai Zifeng are the sons of Yue Muyuan and Cai Tianming respectively, as for Ning Qingyu and Lin Qingyuan, these two people know that they are disciples who have just entered the mountain gate just by hearing their names, and they can be praised by Yue Muyuan together with Feng Qingyang, which shows that their hearts and strength are outstanding.

Gao Cheng said with a smile: "Since the five of them are very good, let's wait for me to go back to Huashan to meet them, but Yue Su and Cai Zifeng are still my junior brothers, and I am the same generation as them, so I don't dare to mess with the generations, I can guide the martial arts, and I don't need to accept apprentices!"

Yue Muyuan was a little disappointed, but as the head said, he was the head of the family's uncle, if his son worshiped the head of the family as a teacher, wouldn't he let himself be demoted by a generation. Fortunately, the head of the family agreed to instruct the martial arts, and it was not without gain.

Gao Cheng checked the territory laid by Huashan in this generation, and then comforted Tang Wenliang and Hu Bao with kind words, promising that the Huashan faction would definitely support them in rebuilding the mountain gate in the future. Peace of mind for the two.

Then Gao Cheng took Zhou Dian and Yue Muyuan back to Huashan, and the second elder of Huashan stayed in Kongtong to avoid encountering a surprise attack by a top master.

Because Zhou Dian is not famous in the rivers and lakes, although many people know that there are five scattered people in the Ming Sect, they may not know who these five scattered people are, Yue Muyuan is no exception, he also thought that Zhou Dian was the subordinate recruited by the head of the Western Regions, so he didn't ask much.
