The banquet went on as scheduled.

During the meal, Wu Ji went to ask Tang Tiexin again: "Senior Brother Tang, why don't I see that the elders are unwilling?"

Tang Tiexin said: "This time, if you intercept the demon rout, you may die! Of course, I've just returned to the sect, and I've just grabbed the things in the sect, so I can't just walk away, so I haven't come out. Otherwise, my Tang family is the master of the era of the Iron Dragon Gate, how can I not want to contribute?"

Wu Ji nodded.

However, before Wu Ji could say anything, Tang Tiexin complained again: "I see that I have been absent from the Iron Dragon Gate for many years, and the atmosphere in the sect has corrupted a lot, such as extravagance and waste, raising a lot of dancing girls to pay attention to enjoyment, and the struggle for power and profit has also begun to rise. There is also the spirit of our Iron Dragon Gate - dare to fight, dare to fight, dare to be tough, and it is almost gone. Alas!"

Wu Ji comforted: "Senior Brother Tang, aren't you already back? Now that you are back, these customs can be slowly rectified." ”

Tang Tiexin sighed and did not speak.

Wu Ji didn't care, he should eat and drink, anyway, he was not Tang Tiexin, and he didn't have the kind of feelings that had accumulated for generations for Tielongmen. It's a big deal to wait until he becomes strong in the future, help Tang Tiexin regain his position as the leader, and strongly guide the good atmosphere.

The next day was overcast, and it looked like I was about to rain.

However, the departure date had already been set, and naturally it could not be changed casually, so everyone should still gather and come to the disciples' cultivation ground.

As soon as Wu Ji passed, he saw a person with a smile on his face, who was Zhang Qiang, who had failed to test Wu Ji before.

When Zhang Qiang saw Wu Ji, the smile on his face suddenly fell, and he didn't dare to run away, so he had to make an embarrassing salute: "Uncle Wu." ”

Wu Ji smiled and asked, "Why are you so happy? ”

Zhang Qiang didn't dare to hide it, and said: "This time, I went out to block the demons for the sect, and after I came back, I will be able to become an inner disciple, so I am happy." ”

Wu Ji expressed his approval: "Well, your strength is already good, and you should become an inner disciple." By the way, is the palm that I broke last time okay?"

Referring to the last battle, Zhang Qiang's face showed shame: "It's already good." Uncle Wu's martial arts are strong, and it is not something I can provoke, and the disciple is ashamed. ”

Wu Ji knew that although the atmosphere of the Iron Dragon Gate had declined a little, it was still far from being shameless. The people who instigated Zhang Qiang last time still gave him the promised benefits, so although Zhang Qiang's money was fooled by Wu Ji, he not only did not become poor, but also became richer.

As he was talking, a young man came over next to him and asked Zhang Qiang, "Is this the new uncle in the door?"

Zhang Qiang hurriedly said: "Exactly." ”

Wu Ji looked at the man, saw that he was holding an iron whip in his hand, and knew that he was using an iron whip as a weapon, so he asked, "Who are you?"

The man was very talkative, and smiled gently: "I'm Wen Jiao, and they call me the first disciple of the inner sect, just." He is also the son of the deputy master of Wen. ”

When Wu Ji heard this, he admired: "Wen is really arrogant, not only led the team out, but also brought his son out." ”

Wen Jiao also praised Wu Ji and said, "Didn't Uncle Wu also take the initiative to come out?"

The two praised each other for a while, and suddenly felt that they were each other's confidants.

At this time, Wen Yiqing came, counted the number of inner disciples and outer disciples, and found that the number of people was enough, so he ordered to set off.

The group of Hao Hao Tang Tang left, the leader rode a horse, and a group of inner and outer disciples walked.

However, horses are also useful in the internal force phase, because internal force is difficult to support long-distance running. When the internal force breaks through to the true qi, the role of the horse will be gone, and it will be too low-level.

It didn't take long for Wen Yiqing to practice true qi, but he didn't need horses anymore. It's just that there are so many disciples walking slowly behind him, so he has to ride on a horse and slip slowly.

Wu Ji and Wen Jiao both had horses to ride.

On the way, Wu Ji asked Wen Jiao and said, "I don't know anything about the Jianghu sects around here." Do you know that?"

Wen Jiao said: "Naturally, I know." I've been to quite a few sects with my father before, so I know a lot about them. ”

Wu Ji asked him to talk to himself.

Wen Jiao said in detail: "The biggest sect in this vicinity is the Longshan Sword Sect, on the main peak of the Longshan Mountain Range, there are many surrounding peaks, all of which belong to them. There are more than 10,000 disciples of the Longshan Sword Sect, and the twenty-eight swords of Longshan are famous for thousands of miles, and the power is all around, and there are also affiliated sects such as the Dustless Sword Sect!"

"In fact, there is another sect that should not be weaker than the Longshan Sword Sect, called the Red Flower Palace, but it is more mysterious, and I don't know where it is inside the Lost Peak Forest. ”

Wu Ji asked: "This Red Flower Palace is so mysterious, can the Marquis of Jin Guang and other princes allow them to exist?"

Wen Jiao replied: "That's no way. The Misty Forest is very large, bordering the territories of many princes, and the Marquis of Jin Guang is just one of them. What's more, most of the disciples of the Red Flower Palace are women, and their biggest abilities are two, one is to assassinate and lurk, and the other is to use their bodies to accompany the princes, princes and other masters. Therefore, there are many princes and princes who have a relationship with them, and the sect's old base camp is not sure, how can Jin Guanghou manage it?"

"This ...... All right. ”

Wen Jiao continued: "In addition to the two largest sects, there are also our Iron Dragon Sect, the Bright Moon Sect that occupies the island in the heart of Honghu Lake, the Poison Dragon Sect in the Black Dragon Swamp, the Great River Gang that operates river transportation, and the large and small martial arts sects such as the Dustless Sword Sect and the Nine Ring Sword Sect. ”

"Coupled with some martial arts families, martial arts halls that are not very popular, etc., it is the nearby Jianghu forces. ”

Wu Ji also asked Wen Jiao to introduce each sect in more detail.

Wen Jiao adjusted his posture while jolting up and down on the horse, and began to talk while foaming.

Two of these things made him angry:

The first is that the Longshan Sword Sect has become more and more powerful over the years, but the Iron Dragon Gate has declined somewhat, so that every time the rivers and lakes gather, the Longshan Sword Sect looks down on the Iron Dragon Gate more and more.

The second is the Poisonous Dragon Sect, which has always been the enemy of the Iron Dragon Gate. It turns out that the iron cloth shirt of the Iron Dragon Gate can be guarded against all kinds of swords, guns, swords, halberds, but it is useless for all kinds of poisons of the Poison Dragon Gate. Therefore, the Iron Dragon Sect has always wanted to eliminate the Poison Dragon Sect, and the Poison Dragon Sect covets the Iron Ridge Mountain Range and also wants to defeat the Iron Dragon Gate, so it has been fighting.

After all these were finished, Wen Jiao said mysteriously: "Uncle Wu, in addition to my desire to defeat the Poisonous Dragon Sect and compete with the Longshan Sword Sect, which everyone knows, I actually have a private idea, do you know what it is?"

Wu Ji heard this: "I don't know what it is?"
