"These two people are from the Smell Fragrance Sect?" Yue Xiang heard Wang Yining's question, and his eyebrows suddenly rose. Although he didn't know if this Heart-Destroying Palm was the unique martial art of the Wenxiang Sect, he didn't doubt Wang Yining's judgment. The current power of the Smelling Fragrance Sect is very likely to come to the outside of the gate to stir up the wind and rain.
In the Ming and Qing dynasties, Wenxiang Sect was a very tenacious sect among the White Lotus Sects, and its influence reached the end of the Qing Dynasty more than 300 years later, that is, the Tianli Sect uprising in the Jiaqing year of the Qing Dynasty, the uprising of the White Lotus Sect in the Ganshan generation, and the Yihequan at the end of the Qing Dynasty, all of which had an inseparable relationship with the disciples of the Wenxiang Sect.
Wenxiang Sect was founded by Wang Sen of Luanzhou Shifokou around the twentieth year of Wanli, also known as the Eastern Mahayana Sect.
Sect leader Wang Sen was originally a leathersmith, and later called himself a demon fox with a strange fragrance, advocated the White Lotus Sect, and claimed to be the leader of the Smelling Fragrance Sect, fooling a large number of ignorant people to scoop him as a god to worship. He took Shifokou as the center, preaching outward, and his disciples spread all over Hebei, Henan, Shandong, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Sichuan and other places, and later when Xu Hongru revolted, there were more than two million followers of Wenxiang Sect in various places, and then they rose up one after another, which directly triggered the beacon fire of the peasant uprising at the end of the Ming Dynasty.
And Wang Sen judging from all kinds of signs, the original organization of the Smelling Fragrance Sect was to do greater things in the future.
The Smelling Fragrance Sect is not like a general sect that is loosely organized and has no fixed rules. Not only are they numerous, but they have developed a fairly tight system.
Wenxiang Sect believers have the name of "head of the head" and "master" of the big and small, and after collecting the money from the head and the head of the meeting, in addition to keeping it for later use, it is sent to the head of the Shifokou sect and called the tribute. Juxtaposed with bamboo sticks flying chips, branded with the word "Three Kings", to transmit news, hundreds of miles a day. It can be seen that the Wenxiang Sect already has a unified financial management and communication system, and Wang Sen has gone to great lengths to come up with such a set, obviously not to look good.
Yue Xiang's understanding of the Wenxiang Sect was limited to some of the things he had learned in the history of the wild and some of the information that Xiao Wan had asked. He is more familiar with Xu Hongru and Yu Hongzhi in the Wenxiang Sect, and he doesn't even know how Wang Sen hangs up.
Xu Hongru is a real famous cult demon in history, legend has it that he can fly to the sky, scatter beans into soldiers, detain ghosts and gods, gather troops in the second year of the Apocalypse, and call himself Emperor Zhongxing Fulie, which was called "a great change that has not been seen in 260 years" by the Ming court. The rebel army of the department was the same as before Zhu Yuanzhang took over the world at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, and they also used red scarves for recognition. The red scarf that reflects each other before and after is a great irony for the Ming Dynasty and the descendants of the Zhu family.
Later, the uprising failed, Xu Hongru was defeated, and some of Wang Sen's descendants stayed in Shifokou to continue preaching, and some went south to Jianghuai and Huguang to develop. It is said that many folk sects in later generations can have a relationship with the Wenxiang Sect, and they still secretly worship the descendants of the Wang family as the lord, and the disciples must call the descendants of the prince and kowtow when they meet, and they are divided into lords and ministers. Later, the Yuandun Sect, the Longhua Sect, and the Tianli Sect were all created by the disciples of the Wang family's descendants.
And Yu Hongzhi, he is the leader of the Bangqi Society, the ancestor of the martial arts group in the folk secret religion. The uprising lasted only seven days during his lifetime, but the impact of armed struggles in Shandong, Hebei, Henan, Shanxi and other places after his death can be said to be long-lasting. He is really the founder of the Qing generation of Yihequan.
This is the history of the Wenxiang Sect that Yue Xiang knows, but now the Wenxiang Sect should still be in a state of good weather. Xu Hongru and Yu Hongzhi have also heard about this Jianghu Road now, he is really annoyed by these damn cults, and he just comes to him wholeheartedly to find trouble.
"Friends of the Wenxiang Sect, I have no grudges with you, you are also Han, and the Wenxiang Sect is also a number of big mountain gates on the road, why did you come to the gate to mingle with these Jurchen Tartars. Even if you Wenxiang Sect intends to win the world, you don't need to be a traitor, right? Could it be that you are also here for Gao Huai's gold? ”
Wang Haoxian and Li Guoyong were seen through Xingzang, so they exchanged glances and did not deny it.
Anyway, at this point, they didn't deliberately want to hide their identities. Indeed, as Wang Yining said, the Yin Qi Gong of the Wenxiang Sect is a must in martial arts, and the kung fu of the two people in front of them is far beyond their expectations, so it is not worth making a fuss about being recognized.
For Wang Haoxian, what he is interested in now is Yue Xiang's identity, because the round of fight with Yue Xiang just now really made him feel uneasy.
He never thought that there would be such a master of swordsmanship in such a remote place outside the gate, his swordsmanship was fierce and fast, and his momentum was like a thunderbolt, which was three points stronger than the methods of those Japanese swordsmen from the east he had seen. To this day, he still felt a chill in his head, and Yue Xiang's knife brought him the feeling of death for the first time.
If he hadn't practiced the spell of his outer body, the moment the blade entered his head, his ghost talisman body would have been stabbed on his behalf, and he would have been splashed with blood on the spot by now.
"You can see that we are a teacher of incense, which shows that Your Excellency is also a friend of the Tao. What we want to invite is this Golden Sect Master of the White Sun Sect, if you are obedient and obedient, you will be safe and sound. "Wang Haoxian has a good time to show his identity, anyway, now they have the advantage of the situation, as long as they can stop Xiaowan. According to the information they obtained, this woman is definitely a key clue figure for Gao Huai Zangjin, and Wang Haoxian judged that Gao Huai Zangjin had already appeared.
"Sect Master Jin?" Yue Xiang was stunned for a moment, and then he understood that he was talking about Xiao Wan. His father, Jin De, was the leader of the White Yang Sect at the time, and he had already hung up more than ten years ago. Xiao Wan, as his only direct bloodline, was naturally able to inherit the position of sect leader.
"Joke, what kind of identity is the Jin Sect Master, how can you ask for it when you say it." Yue Xiang sneered, "Do you understand the rules of worshipping the mountain gate, our Baiyang Sect's mountain gate is not so easy to worship!" When our White Yang Sect revolted, you Smelling Fragrance Sect didn't know where you were in the corner. I want to ask our sect leader to go back and choose a good day and come back again, and I will not accompany you today. ”
Wang Haoxian listened to Yue Xiang's tone, and seemed to be a Baiyang Sect. Thinking about it in my heart, I was relieved, when Jin Deshi was tossing in Liaodong, their Smelling Fragrance Sect had indeed not reached the same power as it is now. This Baiyang Sect has been operating outside the gate for a long time, and there is a way that a hundred-legged insect dies but does not stiffen, how can there be a lack of one or two masters in the sect? And this golden daughter has lived so much, how can there be no expert guards by her side?
"There is a way that it is better to choose a day than to hit the day, I think today is very good. To tell you the truth, we've been staring at you for more than a day or two. Do you think that just one or two sentences will send us away? Look around, even if we give way, will they let you go? You have been in Liaodong for a long time, so you naturally know how the Jurchens dealt with the Han people, and if you want to survive, it is best to listen to us. It is better to fall into our hands than into theirs. ”
Wang Haoxian pointed to the Manggutai's subordinates scattered around, these people all looked fierce and fierce, with morbid cruelty in their eyes, and at a glance they knew that they were the kind of outlaws who killed people without blinking. Judging from Manggutai's reputation for cruelty and murder, this group of people is really in tune with him, and they really haven't lost their master's reputation.
"Although Your Excellency's sword skills are excellent, I'm afraid that a good tiger is difficult to defeat a group of wolves, right? Unless Your Excellency has the ability to defeat 10,000 people like Guan Zhang Zhao in the Three Kingdoms. Wang Haoxian was silent, but the pressure in his words was real.
"Joke, you wear the same pants with these Tartars, how do I know if you're going to take advantage of us and throw us at them. The Wenxiang Sect is colluding with the Tartars outside the Guan, if this news spreads, I am afraid that the situation that you have worked hard for 20 years in the Beijing officialdom and court will collapse in an instant. ”
"Do you have a chance to get the news out there? What if we just use you? You White Sun Sect didn't use those believers to cause trouble back then. You're all just a raccoon dog. As long as you are of use to us, we will not hand you over to them. ”
Wang Haoxian's words were extremely straightforward, but Yue Xiang was not very disgusted when he heard it. At least this person doesn't like to talk nonsense, he goes straight to the point, and he doesn't engage in that nonsense.
"Your Excellency is not very old, but he is quite knowledgeable in his speech, and he does not hide it, and he has a bit of a general's demeanor. Judging by your age, shouldn't you be Xu Hongru, could it be that the son of the Wang sect leader has arrived? That old brother should be Li Guoyong, a closed disciple of the Wenxiang Sect, right? Wang Yining was silent next to him for a long time, and suddenly interjected at this moment.
"This teacher has a friendly eye, and a certain family is Wang Haoxian. This is my Senior Brother Li, I wonder what the parishioners have to say? Wang Haoxian called himself a member of the church, and he regarded Wang Yining as a member of the Baiyang Sect.
"Okay, let's make it clear. Are you eyeing Gao Huai's hidden gold? Wang Yining said nonchalantly.
"So what?"
"There are millions of disciples who have developed in the past ten years, and one person has given you one or two pieces of silver, and in the past ten years, I am afraid that the money you have amassed has exceeded the money in the treasury, is this more money than you squander? How to keep an eye on Gao Huai's hidden gold? ”
"This is not enough for outsiders, for now you should think about your situation. Everyone is the White Lotus Sect, I don't want to hurt the harmony, Your Excellency is full of unique skills, and I Wang Haoxian usually likes to make friends with heroes and heroes, and doing a good job is only in your thoughts. At present, the court is **, the faint monarch is in power, and the people are not happy. We smell the incense and teach tens of millions of disciples, all over the north and south of the Yellow River, on both sides of the Yellow River, just waiting for the time to come, ascend a shout, the world should respond. When the time comes, it will be a change of dynasty, and you all believe in the lifeless mother, if you are willing to join, you will not lose the high position of the temple in the future. ”
Wang Haoxian's words are already showing his own ambitions. In fact, he really admires Yue Xiang and others, his father has been plotting for twenty years, accumulating strength, and is waiting for an opportunity to become the second Emperor Taizu Hongwu.
If you want to start an incident, you can't do it without a helper, Yue Xiang is strong in martial arts, and he still shows his composure under the siege of such a strong enemy, which shows that he is brave enough to skip others. Wang Haoxian concluded that he would not be a thing in the pool in the future, so he started to solicit him. If you can pull him over, it will be a real surprise. And at the moment this path is their only choice, otherwise there will be no good fruit to eat. No matter how he thought about it, he couldn't think of a reason for Yue Xiang's refusal.
But Yue Xiang refused, and was resolute and neat.
"Defect to you to smell the incense sect, hehe, don't be delusional. Although our White Yang Sect has declined temporarily, it has not fallen to the point of being under the fence. You can't do anything big by smelling incense, and even if you rebel, you can't succeed. You are underestimating today's imperial court, although the imperial court is **, it is far from the point where you will fall with a kick. Among the officers and soldiers, there is still a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, the so-called gun shoots the first bird, you honestly cheat your money and no one may care about you, if you want to be called the king and the emperor, hum, it's up to you? ”
Wang Haoxian's face sank when he heard this, in his opinion, he gave Yue Xiang and the others a way to live, but he didn't expect people to appreciate it, and they looked down on them like that. How did he know that Xiaowan was Yue Xiang's wife, and if he wanted him to hand over his wife honestly, Yue Xiang would not accept it even if he died.
"Senior brother, what are you doing with him? This Baiyang remnant doesn't know whether he lives or dies, and he is so proud of this, and he is so proud when I clean him up. Li Guoyong was impatient on the side, he was romantic, and since he saw Xiao Wan, he was very lustful, and he wanted to get this beautiful young woman in his hands. But seeing that the relationship between Xiaowan and Yue Xiang was obviously not ordinary, he immediately had murderous intent towards Yue Xiang.
Wang Haoxian also meant this, Yue Xiang's attitude really made him angry, and it seemed necessary to kill his sharpness. He can't rely on martial arts himself, and the only way to do it is to look at his little junior brother Li Guo.
"Little bunny, come up if you want to die. I heard that you guys like to pretend to be gods and ghosts the most, doesn't Xu Hongru claim to be able to call the wind and rain to detain ghosts and serve gods? What tricks do you have to hurry up and make Lao Tzu happy. ”
Yue Xiang had already noticed that this little white face had been staring at Xiao Wan, and his heart was already full of anger. He has no interest in cooperating with the Wenxiang Sect at all, and even if he surrenders at the moment, Wang Haoxian may not be able to save his life, just because it is the black-clothed knights behind him who really call the shots here.
With regard to the black knights, he thought that if he had calculated correctly, he might have been able to get a way out of them.
"Look for death!" Li Guo raised his eyebrows with his sword, waved his sleeves, and there was already a bright yellow rune paper in his hand, which was drawn with cinnabar I don't know what it was. He had a word in his mouth, and the depths of his eyes burned with a strange light, and the rune paper burned on its own without seeing any movement, and a thick black mist rolled out of the firelight, condensing into a mass that gathered in the air without dispersing.
"My elder brother's ** skill, how can you, a hillbilly, deserve to see? But today, you died under the talisman ghost of my Li Guoyong, which can be regarded as your creation! As he spoke, he shouted like a law in his mouth, and pointed his finger. The black mist moved violently, swirling and whistling into the seven orifices of the corpse of a red-flaged banner man on the ground.
Then, the corpse slowly stood up......
