Chapter 59: Brothers Gather
Unlike the torrential rain that came suddenly in most cities, the sky was clear at the foot of the overturned mountain thousands of miles away, and there was no dark cloud in sight.
Wen Xuan and his entourage had been on the mountain road for several hours, and were looking for a secluded place to rest for a while, chatting while eating dry food.
Wen Xuan knew how sad Mu Chong was, so he didn't call him when the group went down the mountain.
Wen Xianzhong and Zhou told their son to rest assured that they would definitely help Mu Chong handle the future affairs of Li Nanniang, and they told them some words of concern that "safety must be the priority when you go out".
When Wen Xuan's figure disappeared on the top of the overturned mountain, Zhou's tears immediately flowed, and he said to Wen Xianzhong angrily: "If Xuan'er encounters any accidents, I can't spare you!" ”
Wen Xianzhong, who was accused by his wife, could only sigh and did not reply.
"Whether our plan can succeed or not depends on this kid." Peng Yingyu and Guo Putian were also in the send-off procession, and when they saw that everyone else was gone, they sighed to Wen Xianzhong.
Wen Xianzhong was silent, his eyes were also full of worry, and it was indeed difficult for him to distinguish right from wrong by pushing his son into a dangerous chess game.
Wen Xuan was also a little worried in his heart, no one could say what the chaos of this Qinglong Hall was like, and he was fortunate to bring Sheng Wenyu out, otherwise he and Tie Niu would not even be able to tell the location of each altar.
"Elder Sheng, what do you think about handling the affairs of the Blue Dragon Hall?" After all, Sheng Wenyu is an elder in the mountain, and Wen Xuan wants to hear his opinion.
Sheng Wenyu was not pretentious, and after thinking seriously for a while, he replied solemnly: "The root cause of the rebellion in Qinglong Hall is that the position of this hall master has been vacant for a long time, and the seven altars have their own affairs, and each altar master is also fighting openly and secretly for the position of this hall master.
Cai Chaotou of the Tail Water Altar was originally a person who didn't like publicity, and he didn't get involved in the battle of the hall master head-on, but he didn't expect that this time he would dare to openly apostasy with the Tail Water Altar, presumably there must be a reason for the incident, so I think I can first explore the current situation of the other branch altars. ”
Wen Xuan nodded thoughtfully, before going down the mountain, he had already learned the general situation of Qinglong Hall from his father's mouth.
Qinglong Hall is located in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, and its sub-altar is named after the combination of the Oriental Star and the Sun and the Five Elements, and is divided into Bijiao Wood, Kangjin, Di Earth, Fang Ri, Xin Yue, Tail Water, and Keihuo, all of which are set up in important road houses.
For example, Lin Hao's Jiaomu Altar is located on Huizhou Road, Cai Rantou's tailwater altar is located on Taizhou Road, and Xu Nong's Keihuo Altar is located on Huzhou Road......
Therefore, it is understandable why the Mingjiao attaches so much importance to the Qinglong Hall, once an incident occurs, as long as there are one or two sub-altars to gain a firm foothold, it can open an opening in such a rich and large province, and its strategic importance is self-evident.
Seeing that Wen Xuan couldn't find a clue, Tie Niu took out a token from his sleeve and handed it to Wen Xuan, "There is simply no goal, it is better to go to Huzhou Road first, this is what he gave me when I went to visit Uncle Xu, he didn't want the Keihuo Altar to be destroyed in his hands, and begged us to find a way to rebuild the Keihuo Altar." ”
Wen Xuan saw the word "Jihuo" on the token, thought of the relationship between Xu Nong and Tie Niu, nodded lightly, and agreed: "In this case, go to Huzhou Road, I want to see how the disciples of these sub-altars are fighting among themselves, and they have actually caused the altar masters of the Jihuo Altar to the hands of Yuan Bing!" ”
As soon as the three of them agreed on the first place to go after leaving the mountain, they heard some noise in the woods behind them, and they looked back together, and soon saw a panting Mu Chong chasing after them.
"Why didn't you call me for such a big thing as going down the mountain?" Mu Chong asked with a pant.
"Mu Chong?" Wen Xuan and Tie Niu were overjoyed when they saw Mu Chongdeng.
Wen Xuan said with some embarrassment: "I thought you were ......"
"Why? Thought I was going to go with my mom and dad? Mu Chong glared at Wen Xuan.
"What about the nurse?"
Mu Chong's expression darkened, and he said sadly: "Ying'er is still on the mountain, and Wenbo is here, I can rest assured." ”
Seeing this, Tie Niu stretched out his big hand and grabbed the shoulders of the two brothers at the same time, and comforted: "This is her wish, we should be happy for her, if we really miss our father, let's go to the bottom of the mountain and kill a few more soldiers!" ”
"Thank you Brother Li for your concern." Mu Chong said with a reluctant smile.
"Let's not talk about this between our brothers, I haven't thanked you and Wen Xuan for going to the forbidden land to save me! Then again, that Mingwang Cave is really fucking dark! ”
Everyone was amused by Tie Niu, and the atmosphere was a little better, Wen Xuan handed Mu Chong a water bladder for him to rest for a while.
Sheng Wenyu looked at the three people who had a very good relationship, and he was a little envious in his heart, but he teased: "It's the first time for the three of you to walk out of the Shipwreck Mountain, right?" The outside world is very different from the mountains. ”
"Oh? What's the difference? Tie Niu asked suspiciously.
Sheng Wenyu said with a complicated expression: "The mountain is far away from the hustle and bustle, which can be called a paradise and a beautiful place, and the outside of the mountain is dirty in the world, as if you are in the Mingwang Cave at all times." ”
"Always in the Mingwang Cave......" Tie Niu muttered to himself, his expression becoming unnatural.
Wen Xuan couldn't help laughing, patted the god of the iron bull and said: "What Elder Sheng said means that people's hearts are not ancient now, and there are many deceitful battles outside, not that everywhere is as dark as the Ming King Cave. ”
"What? You're a big guy who is afraid of the dark? Sheng Wenyu seemed to have seen a big joke.
Tie Niu scratched his head in embarrassment and did not refute.
Mu Chong was also amused by a few people, and gradually forced himself to stop thinking about his mother, and secretly determined to make some achievements and live up to his father's spirit in the sky.
Wen Xuan looked up at the ten disciples of the Discipline Hall and said, "Everyone, after the battle under the mountain, the Yuan Court will definitely crack down on the Ming Sect more severely, and we will inevitably be subjected to various interrogations by the Yuan soldiers on this eastward journey, so it is better to act separately for the time being." ”
"Before going down the mountain, the sect leader specially ordered, as long as it is your order, Gongzi Wen, even if it is a sword mountain and a sea of fire, the ten of us will not hesitate to break through, so you don't have to be polite, just give the order." A slightly older disciple hugged his fists.
Wen Xuan smiled, "In that case, I won't say more polite words, and when we get out of the mountains and forests, we will go our separate ways, and agree to meet at the fire altar on Huzhou Road in half a month." ”
"Half a month? It's only 500 miles to Huzhou, I'm afraid it won't take so long, right? The disciple was worried that Wen Xuan, who had never descended the mountain, was not very clear about the route, so he reminded him.
"I just said something about the sea of swords, and I started to talk a lot at this time, will Wen Gongzi not know this? I want you to make noise! Sheng Wenyu on the side immediately reprimanded in a deep voice.
The disciples of the Discipline Hall all knew about this Elder Sheng's strange temper, so they immediately retreated according to the order, not daring to continue to say more.
