Chapter 36: The "Justice" Alliance
"Sun Yijin."
Xu Yongzhi called him by his name without any politeness.
"Others call you Mr. and say that you are the health power of Nantang, in my eyes, you are a hypocrite and a fart."
"Young man, don't be so impulsive." Sun Yijin's face did not change.
"According to what you said, today is your Justice League, who came to Longhu Mountain and let Longhu Mountain cut off the evil forces, and Zhou Zhuocheng led troops to maintain order, right."
"You can understand it this way, this is an important measure of self-cleaning and self-inspection and self-correction in the industry."
"So as long as I win against you, it's over for today, am I right? Temperate Envoy? Xu Yongzhi turned to Zhou Zhuocheng.
"Yes." Zhou Zhuocheng said angrily.
"Okay, then I'll know who I'm going to beat."
"Young people, don't be too inflated," Sun Yijin pretended to be bitter, "Sun Mou came here today, not someone else to lead, to be honest, it's your luck." ”
"Because you're easier to beat, aren't you?"
"Hehe," Sun Yijin laughed dryly, "Sun is a particularly rational, restrained, and bottom-line person. ”
"Okay, so let's talk about the bottom line. You brought a group of people and ran to the Heavenly Master's Mansion to ask for people, who you wanted, you should know in your heart. Xu Yongzhi said.
"Sun Mou is not a specific person at all, on the road from Tanzhou to Longhu Mountain, there are traces of using some kind of dark negative force, Sun Mou and Jiangnan heroes are counted here, not to kill anyone, but to save the world!"
Sun Yijin waved his hand, hoping that everyone would support him.
"That's right! Save the world and eliminate negative energy! The crowd was there clamoring.
Sun Yijin waved his hand again, and everyone immediately stopped talking.
"Sun still wants to persuade you, Brother Xu, young people should consider their future, most of you are older than you, some you can call a brother, and some have a relationship with your father, if you call an uncle and uncle, it is not an insult to you. Speak well, we have some discussions, if you tear your face, then don't blame Jiangnan Hero's subordinates for being ruthless. "Sun Yijin's iron-black face and puffy face look particularly hateful.
"You're talking." Xu Yongzhi said.
"What?" Sun Yijin said.
"You're talking." Xu Yongzhi repeated.
"The black energy user you are framing is my own sister, this child is just seven years old, how can it be a black energy user? Do you think I, her brother, her only relative, will agree to this little girl if you suspect that she has some magical powers, and you will take her away for torture and even harm her body for experiments and research? Xu Yongzhi said.
"Sun promised that Ling Mei's inquiries would be fair, just and open." Sun Yijin still has the face of an elder.
"You? Your guarantee is worthless. As soon as Sun entered, when my house was destroyed by the imperial court, when Linquan Town was slaughtered by the Southern Tang Army, when my father and mother were killed without trial, where were you, did you make a sound? Xu Yongzhi asked.
Sun believes that in some things last month, the court took some detours, and now that I think about it, everyone is also sad! Right? ”
"Yes!" A group of marionettes in the back chimed in.
"And after Your Majesty heard about the improper treatment of your family, he also made a decree as soon as possible, rehabilitated your father, and punished the relevant responsible persons, I think that you, as a citizen of the Southern Tang Dynasty, should be grateful."
"Thanksgiving." Xu Yongzhi, "I'll kill your whole family, leave you with a life, and then ask you to be grateful, how do you feel." ”
"Don't be emotional, the mother hit the wrong child, and the child should be considerate of the mother. Datang is our motherland, today's saint is the king, we are the ministers, the monarch has no father and son, how can the father and son have an overnight feud? Brother Xu, I suggest that you put aside history and look forward in unity. ”
"Look ahead, fart."
"If you speak like that, you're only going to push everyone across from you." Sun Yijin said.
"The people who came here today are already standing opposite me, there are no masses here, and there are no neutral people, so I don't bother to reason with you, I don't need to unite anyone on your side." Xu Yongzhi said.
"Even if Sun doesn't have a little face, don't Jiangnan Qunxiong have a little face and a little incense?" Sun Yijin asked.
"What gentleman would come to your nasty organization and coerce a little girl who has lost her parents? Known as the Jiangnan Decent Alliance, Jiaxing Five Heroes, Master Liumu, the abbot of Qixia Temple, and Wuyi Jianhao will not accept your invitation. How can a virtuous person allow himself to do such a nasty thing? Sun Yijin, what kind of shrimp soldiers and crab generals are you brought? Xu Yongzhi said.
"Oh, you are the head of the Hongzhou Wuqu Dart Bureau," Xu Yongzhi looked at a bearded man in a blue cloth shirt, "Back then, you went under Wangwu Mountain, and were robbed by Hequ Suo, and that car was the official silver of the Southern Tang Dynasty, who helped Da Zhou to send pay to the front line of the Northern Han Dynasty, you cried and begged my father, and finally my father asked our shopkeeper in Bianjing to take his handwritten letter to help you ask for darts, remember this." ”
The bearded man looked ashamed, he had indeed received the favor of the Xu family.
This time, I saw Shanzitang being attacked by the imperial court in Jiangnan, firstly, because I was afraid of the power of the government, and secondly, I also hoped to get the opportunity to make meritorious contributions in this event, so I mixed in the crowd.
"The owner of the Jiangzhai of Hanshui Village, you are a character in the green forest, is it really good to be so close to the government? When Ma Chu conscripted your water village, you saw that you were invincible, so you went to Linquan Town to ask for the protection of the Merchant Guild, and the guild helped you contact Ma Chu's admiral to negotiate, you gave 200,000 stone of grain and saved the life of the family, that is also a little mercy of my father, but you are vicious and come to bully his little daughter. ”
"Lord Geguan of Jinling Chengtianguan, back then, you were a sword contest with someone because of a popular boy in Qinhuaihe, you couldn't run, you were cut off by a robe in your back, and you lost half your life, let the apprentices ask my father to help you heal, my father took care of you day and night within a month, and saved your life with skillful hands, you have gifts every year on three festivals, and you keep saying the grace of recreation, why did my father's bones not cold, so he came here to make trouble?"
Lord Ge Guan secretly gritted his teeth:
"This kid will lose my face, and I will have to kill him in a while."
"Don't grit your teeth, look at this expression, it's secretly ruthless, weigh it yourself, can you kill me. I recognize a few of you today, that is, a few of you are unlucky, I may not kill the bad guys, but I kill the bad guys, if you think it's a misunderstanding, quit now and go straight home. ”
"If you don't think it's a misunderstanding, I'll kill you first in a while, if you're lucky enough not to die under my sword today, I'll go to Wuqu Dart Bureau, Hanshui Village, and Chengtianguan to find you, where you won't have a mouthful, some people have wives and children, some people have Mrs. Zhaizhai, and some people don't have women, but they have a few handsome little apprentices, right."
The bearded Shu dart threw the knife away, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, Young Master Xu, I was misled by this liar!" ”
He strode out, and he didn't want a single sword.
The owner of the Jiang village smiled: "Look, look, why did I, the owner of the Hanshui village, come to Longhu Mountain!" In the future, this kind of summit with food and shelter will still be less attended, brothers, see the mountains from afar, and listen to the water silently! ”
A dozen or so water thieves around him heard him say these two words, saluted together, and went out.
Both of them are understanding, but Lord Geguan is not.
Lord Geguan is such a person: he is not wrong, he will never be wrong.
Others said that he was vicious, but he couldn't hear it, and he was annoyed that Xu Yongzhi exposed his shame.
Lord Ge Guan thought to himself, there were hundreds of people standing behind, so there was no need to be afraid of the surname Xu.
So he greeted the crowd:
"Heroes of Jiangnan, deal with court rebellions like Xu Yongzhi, don't talk about any morality, everyone is shoulder to shoulder!"
With that, the sword was unsheathed.
This is a joy to see.
"Come on! Come on! Everyone shouted out the strongest voice of encouragement to Lord Ge Guan.
Everyone wanted to see how Ge Guanzhu's swordsmanship was, and they encouraged him to go to Xu Yongzhi alone.
It's not a coaxing, because of the real sword duel, everyone really sees it.
In the peaceful years, you can't just cut people.
Today's people say "south fist and north leg", not to mention the blade, because the Qing Dynasty prevented martial arts people from rebelling and suppressed the use of weapons as much as possible.
The style of the five dynasties of the remnant Tang Dynasty is still much more fierce, go to places like Cangzhou and Dingzhou, you will find that every martial arts hall teaches the ability to fight and kill, and everyone learns real guys like spears, horse lances, bows and arrows, and horizontal knives.
The Southern Tang Dynasty is different, in the past 20 years, the atmosphere in the south of the Yangtze River has gradually become elegant.
The performance of spears and lances is relatively poor, and if you want to have fun while drinking, it is better to use swords.
Jiangnan martial arts began to be swords, and most of the big cities like Hongzhou, Tanzhou, and Jinling have sword halls, and some Taoist temples also have swordsmanship teaching.
The most important income of a swordsman is from the shackles (tuition) and offerings of his disciples.
It's not enough to have more apprentices, but the apprentices also need to be rich and powerful.
Teaching a few children from poor families can only earn a living income.
Teaching the officials and soldiers, that is, it is convenient to do things locally.
The ones who can really make the master pretend to be money are the children of the rich and noble.
Learning to sword is similar to today's gym, and the tuition fee is charged once a year.
Some of the businessman's children are lazy, don't practice, the master doesn't force it, just keep the name, next year the eldest young master feels heartbroken, and also came to renew the fee, and when chatting with friends, he also patted his chest and promised, saying: "This year must be practiced."
There are also masters who go to the officials' homes to teach the young master and miss, which is even more of a beauty difference, after the Southern Tang Dynasty has a civil official Shilin, the swords of these swordsmanship masters are becoming more and more flowery, more and more beautiful, and within twenty years, they have changed from killing techniques to performance projects.
The ground in the Southern Tang Dynasty was relatively peaceful, and the magistrates did not allow swordsmanship masters to cut each other, so there were more and more masters.
However, the number of children of Shangshu, Shilang, Guanglu Doctor, and the prefect was limited, and everyone began to compete fiercely.
Come out together to participate in various summits, looking forward to peers falling from the mountain, falling into the sea or something, are the wishes of the famous and decent people, one less peer, one less competitor, and one less peer, everyone can carve up his customers.
So when they saw Lord Ge Guan draw his sword to kill Xu Yongzhi, everyone had ill-intentioned expressions.
There is no one "side by side" with him, which makes the main body of the view here.
"Hey," Xu Yongzhi said, "Lord Geguan, you are also a Taoist lineage, a Kanyu sect, although you are not a disciple of Zhengyi, but you draw a sword in the Heavenly Master's Mansion, I don't think it's right." ”
Lord Ge Guan just shouted angrily: "The surname is Xu, you slander my reputation, come and fight with me to the death!" ”
Sun Yijin hurriedly persuaded: "Ge Daoye is angry, or wait for us to set the rules for sword competition......"
There is such a kind of person in the world:
The more others pull him and persuade him, the more energetic he becomes, and the more he has to fight with others.
Lord Geguan is such a person.
"No, it's not okay for him!"
"You make it clear to me today!"
Sun Yijin has been pulling him, which means "accept it when you see it, and forget the meaning".
Unexpectedly, Ge Laodao's strength became more and more powerful, and as soon as Sun entered without strength, Ge Laodao rushed in.
Standing in the middle of the field, he was still shouting there, "Come on, come on, fight three lilies with me!" ”
But when he found that he had already entered the field, he also felt faintly bad in his heart, and sent a look of help to Sun Yijin.
That means, "Brother, come down and persuade me." ”
But Sun Yijin closed his eyes.
"Since Daoist Ge insists on competing, Sun will help Daochang sweep the formation." Lord Geguan is willing to die, and Sun is willing to bury as soon as he enters.
Lord Ge Guan looked at Xu Yongzhi, and went through a process of convincing himself in his heart, "Maybe I killed him without asking him."
"In your early twenties, even if you practice martial arts from your mother's womb, how many years can you have? Kill him! ”
With this thought, he suddenly felt that he might be quite powerful.
That's the illusion, that's the swell.
How is Lord Geguan's swordsmanship? Let's be fair, yes.
Geguan has more than 200 apprentices and more than a dozen rich and noble disciples.
Everyone teaches every day, using wooden swords.
In the daily competition, everyone used a bamboo pole wrapped in cloth, dipped in white ash on the cloth, and wore black clothes to compete.
In the education and training industry, you can't fight for your life, and you can't really hurt your apprentices.
When Ge Guan was studying with his apprentices and teaching assistants, it was not difficult to prick people with white spots.
But this is a completely different technology from a real knife.
Most of the sword halls in the Southern Tang Dynasty used bamboo poles.
After the bamboo poles were used for a long time, some northerners came to kick the gym.
Northern martial artists generally shouted when they came in:
"Use a real sword!"
The rich masters of the Southern Tang Dynasty would take care of the wine and meat, and entangle these martial artists so as not to use real swords.
The disciples sometimes asked, "Master, are we afraid of using real swords?" ”
"Of course I'm not afraid, how did the teacher teach you?"
"You say, high skills are useless, high skills are useless."
"That's right, God has the virtue of a good life, you click a sword to pass, he is dead, he still has an old mother, wife and children at home, how can we bear it?"
Therefore, many well-known swordsmanship masters have never experienced real sword competitions.
There are also foreign masters who really want to come to the competition, so they will be polite when they enter the door, "Let's fight with a wooden sword, is it okay?" ”
The wooden sword competition is already a very dangerous competition, and the wood is enough to split a person's head.
When you meet this kind of kicker, either you give him more money, or you actually fight him.
Ge Guan is the kind of tough guy who really fights with each other, because he has a big apprentice who can fight very well.
Geguan has a big apprentice, a Kunlun slave (the name of the black man in the Tang Dynasty), this young man is nearly seven feet tall, more than two meters now, and his arm span is higher than his height, his name is Said, and when the people saw it, they all felt that it was really a fierce man of Saizhang Yide.
Saeed grew up fighting in Damascus, and later sold to the Persians as slaves, and not long after following his master to Jinling, the Persian master fell ill and died.
Saeed had no livelihood, so he was helping to unload the truck outside the Xuanwu Gate in Jinling, and Lord Geguan began to have some ruffians trying to beat him, and he waved a wooden stick and beat him all over the ground looking for teeth.
Once, when Lord Ge Guan saw his heroic appearance of fighting with others, he felt that he had encountered a rare treasure.
"Can you worship me as a teacher?"
"I'll give you pocket money and teach you swordsmanship."
"You don't need to teach swordsmanship, you are welcome to give money." Said lad is quite practical.
Since then, Said's livelihood has been settled, and in addition to receiving a monthly pocket money, there is also an appearance fee when he encounters kicking the gym.
As long as a northerner comes to Lord Ge Guan to ask for a "wooden sword competition", Lord Ge Guan will snort in his nose and say to Xiao Daotong: "Go and call your senior brother over." ”
Xiao Daotong went to invite Said and said to the northerners: "Master's martial arts are too high, and he rarely does anything with others, if you can win the senior brother, the master will naturally learn from you." ”
The swordsmen from the north often don't mind this matter very much, and there are many swordsmanship masters who let the apprentices fight on their behalf, and it is actually the same for whoever they fight, and they just give money if they lose.
But every time Saeed entered, the northerners gasped.
Said's height and arm length, the northern big man is not an opponent at all, and he can't beat him at all.
Lord Ge Guan is a monk, and he is also very compassionate, and if the person who kicked out the hall writes a letter of repentance, he will generally not fight.
Those who don't write a letter of repentance will be beaten up by the big black man.
Other sword halls sometimes invite gunners and foreign aid, but foreign aid is basically rude, but Saeed is not, people are slaves and have lived a poor life, so they know how to be grateful to the master of Ge Guan, and those who kick the hall after beating him must respectfully salute Lord Ge Guan.
The person who kicked the hall saw that this was not a nursery, it seemed that it was a real master, and he quickly kowtowed to Lord Geguan.
After a long time, the sword halls of each family have also come to life.
The weak are not afraid, the key is naturalization.
Everyone began to recruit Kunlun slaves, as well as Persians, Tungusic people and Dongying people, just like today's Chinese Super League, mainly depending on who has strong foreign aid.
But the masters of each family, in fact, their own level is still like that, but as soon as everyone holds it, the masters tend to become more and more inflated, and they always feel that their level has also gone up with foreign aid.
Ge Guan is the kind of person who has been pretending to be for too long and forgetting to eat a few bowls of dry rice by himself, he really feels that he is the first in Jinling's actual combat.
"What, don't you dare?" Lord Ge Guan shouted with his dangling sword.
"Heavenly Master," Xu Yongzhi gave a salute to Master Tai, "The juniors don't dare to show their blades in the Heavenly Master's Mansion, so I beg to borrow a wooden sword and fight with this Daoist." ”
This sentence has two meanings, one is to continue to accuse Ge Guan of the rudeness of the sword, and the other is to say that he is no longer the disciple of Longhu Mountain, and whether he competes or kills people has nothing to do with Longhu Mountain.
Zhang Qianren nodded, Zhang Bei took out a wooden sword and gave it to Xu Yongzhi, which was his daily customary system, Zhang Bei whispered: "Yongzhi, you have to be careful." ”
"Lord Ge Guan, you are known as the first wooden sword competition, I will use the wooden sword against your real sword, but the wooden sword can also kill, if there is a mistake, don't blame me."
"Make!" Lord Ge Guan was so dazed that he couldn't think anymore.
"In the section of victory and defeat, I implore Master Heaven to help judge, his old man is a senior master, and I believe that Lord Geguan can also trust it." Xu Yongzhi said.
"I'll call the shots." The Heavenly Master Zhang Qianren is also the best to do.
This step is very critical, and Xu Yongyi must not let Zhou Zhuocheng be the adjudicator.
"Less nonsense, come on!" Lord Geguan's teeth clenched.
