Chapter 49: Bright Top, the First Meeting
"Good! Wuji, I didn't expect your strength to be so strong, this year's big discussion in the sect, I'm waiting to see you show your skills, hahaha......" On the martial arts field, Yang Xiao's hearty laughter echoed. In his heart, he did lose half of this battle, not to mention that he had more than twice as much time as Xie Wuji practicing martial arts, but just talking about the last blow just now, as the attacking party, he still didn't get the slightest bargain, it wasn't that he lost half a chip, so what?
"Mowgli, good job...... Half a year later, it is necessary to make Yang Xiao look good, hahaha...... "The four flag bearers who watched the battle also laughed heartily, and it seemed that they had foreseen that after half a year, Yang Xiao was deflated.
"Brother Xie, you are really amazing...... Yes, I already knew that you were powerful, but I didn't expect you to be able to fight with the Flag Commander to such an extent......" Xu Da and the others rushed up and made a commotion. At this moment, they were even more convinced and admired Xie Wuji's strength.
In the next few days, Xie Wuji and the others began to arrange the follow-up matters after they went to the Five Elements Flag Altar. Although the cottage must be abandoned, and the Five Elements Banner Altar in Jianghuai Province will be targeted by the Mengyuan Imperial Court for a long time in the future, but with the current situation, it is naturally impossible to give up.
In the process of discussion between Xie Wuji and others, Liu Ju offered to stay and preside over the affairs of the Five Elements Banner of Jianghuai Province. Although Xie Wuji really wanted to keep Liu Ju by his side, Liu Ju was indeed the most suitable person for this place. Moreover, among Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, Deng Youde and Liu Ju, if you really want to choose one person to stay, in contrast, Xie Wuji is naturally more inclined to take Xu Da, Chang Yuchun and Deng Youde with him.
However, Liu Ju decided to stay, and the five flag envoys did not wronged him, and directly promoted him to the incense master of the Jianghuai branch of the Five Elements Banner. The Jianghuai branch of the Five Elements Banner, after experiencing the encirclement and suppression battle of the former Mengyuan army, has already had a tacit understanding between the banners and the altars, and naturally there is no need to merge and change separately.
Five days later, Xie Wuji, Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, and Deng Youde followed the five flag bearers and set off for Sichuan Province, where the main altar of the Five Elements Banner was located.
And Liu Ju, who led the disciples of the Jianghuai Branch of the Five Elements Banner, resolutely gave up the cottage and escaped into the mountains and forests. Left and right, they robbed a large amount of grain and grass before, even if they were in the deep mountains and old forests, hiding for two or three years, it was enough.
Sure enough, the first thing the new Jianghuai Prime Minister did after he took office was to clear the Jianghuai Branch of the Five Elements Banner, and he didn't want to repeat the mistakes of his predecessor. However, when he sent several teams of scouts to the cottage to investigate, the reward he received made him happy and worried, and he was not without disappointment.
He was glad that the traitor had given up the cottage, which made him no longer have to make a big move, and he could explain to the court; The worry is that although the traitor gave up the cottage, he did not know whether he had left Jianghuai Province, if not, who knows if there will be another incident in the future; The disappointment is that although there is no need to make a big move now, it has indeed lost an opportunity to make meritorious contributions, and the previous traitors made a lot of noise, which attracted great attention from the imperial court, and if it can be truly completely eradicated, the meritorious work will naturally be not small, and it will be rewarded by the imperial court.
Xie Wuji and the others didn't know the complicated feelings of the new Jianghuai Prime Minister, but they were not in the mood to care what he thought.
At this time, Xie Wuji and the others had followed the five flag bearers and came to the Five Elements Banner General Altar. After a brief rest for a few days, and only a general understanding of the current situation of the Five Elements Banner, Xie Wuji announced a retreat. Right now, for him, the most important thing is whether he can compete with Yang Xiao and other high-level leaders in the Guangming Ding Ming Sect in a few months.
As for the specific affairs of the Five Elements Banner, with the five flag bearers supporting him wholeheartedly, what could he not worry about. Besides, aren't there three henchmen, Xu Da, Chang Yuchun and Deng Youde. As early as on the way here, the five flag envoys had mentioned to Xie Wuji that they would focus on cultivating the three of them, and I believe that the three of them would not disappoint him. Xie Wuji is convinced of this.
Four months later, less than half a month has passed since the convening of the Mingjiao Conference, and although Sichuan Province is not too far from the Guangming Peak of Kunlun Mountain, it is time for them to set off. It's just that to this day, the door of Xie Wuji's retreat room has not yet opened.
The five flag bearers waited for another two days, Xie Wuji still hadn't left the customs, and just when the five of them hesitated whether to forcibly knock on the customs, the door of the secret room finally opened slowly, and Xie Wuji smiled at the corner of his mouth and strode out.
Xin Ran's temperament was the most anxious, and he couldn't wait to ask, "Wuji, how's it?" Have you ever broken through? ”
"Luckily succeeded." Xie Wuji nodded with a smile, and asked a little strangely, "How did the five uncles know that Wuji would be out of the customs today?" also came to greet him, how dare his nephew? ”
"The devil only knew that you were out today." Wen Cangsong glared at Xie Wuji angrily, and said, "Eleven more days will be the day of the big discussion within the sect, if you don't go out again, we will all have to forcibly knock on the level." ”
"Huh?" Xie Wuji scratched his head a little embarrassed, and apologized: "My nephew was too attentive in retreat, he forgot the time, and almost missed a big event, and I ask the five uncles not to blame." ”
"It's okay, it's good to break through." Zhuang Zheng laughed, obviously Xie Wuji could really break through, he was still surprised, and said, "Without further ado, go back and clean up, let's leave today." If there is anything, we will talk about it on the road. ”
"Okay." Everyone had no reason to disagree, and immediately nodded one after another, and went back to pack up and prepare.
An hour later, the five flag bearers, Xie Wuji, Xu Da, Chang Yuchun and Deng Youde, plus five hundred elites of each flag of the Five Elements Banner General Altar, set off and left the main altar and hurried to the Guangming Peak of Kunlun Mountain.
They had to be so cautious about this trip. Yang Xiao, the left envoy of light, Wei Yixiao, the "Green Winged Bat King", Zhou Dian, the five scattered people, Peng Yingyu, the "Peng monk", Zhang Zhong, the "Iron Crown Daoist", the "Budai monk", and the "cold face" Leng Qian, these well-known Mingjiao giants are not easy to match, plus the four gates of heaven and earth, if the Five Elements Banner is not full of elites, not only will the purpose of this trip not be achieved, but there is even a great possibility, there is no return.
The scorching sun is high, the yellow sand is rolling, and there are more than 2,500 people and horses walking in this endless desert, which is the five flag bearers, Xie Wuji and others, as well as the elite of the Five Elements Banner.
They had been walking in this desert for five days, and today they were finally going to get out of this hellish place. Speaking of which, even with the skills of Xie Wuji and the five flag bearers, in this rolling yellow sand, if they rush all day, they will have a dry mouth and sweat like rain all over their bodies, as if they were fished out of water, let alone others?
Leaving the desert, they plunged headlong into a dense mountain forest, in which huge trees towered into the clouds, covering the sky and the sun, and a sense of shade arose.
Finding a stream, they stopped for a short time, drank water, rested, and rested before setting off again and continuing to the top of the light. The mountain road is difficult to walk, calculate the time, the church is in two days, and their time is still a little rushed.
Two days later, at noon, in the Guangming Treasure Hall of the Mingjiao General Altar, the five scattered people had arrived, and Yang Xiao, who had been sitting on the top of the light all the year round, and the four masters of the four gates of heaven and earth, wind and thunder, were naturally also in the hall. However, the atmosphere between them is not harmonious, although they are not cold, but they are not pleasing to anyone, and they are constantly ridiculing each other.
Just listened, Sha Wanli, the master of the Fengmen Gate, said with a smile: "Zhou Dian, didn't you say that you won't be able to reach the top of the light for life?" Why do you rush to the big discussion every time? ”
Zhou Dian was stunned and scolded: "Fart, fart!" Fuck your shit! Lao Tzu did not apostatize, so he naturally wanted to come back to worship the holy fire. If it weren't for that, even if you and Yang Xiao's kid came to beg Lao Tzu to come, Lao Tzu wouldn't come. ”
The owner of the Lei Zi Gate, who also had a hot temper, shook the sky, opened his mouth and scolded: "Zhou Dian, you mad dog, you don't want to bite people here, you scattered people don't come to participate in the big discussion, that's your own business, who the hell will beg you." ”
"Thunder Monkey, who the hell are you scolding, don't you owe it to clean up?" Zhou Dian was furious, Huo stood up, rolled up his arms and sleeves, and was about to do a big job.
"Alright." Yang Xiao's face was slightly gloomy, and he shouted lightly: "Stop, every time we make such a fuss, you are not tired, we are all tired of watching." Don't look at what kind of place this is. ”
"Yoh?" Zhou Dian shouted in a strange voice: "Our Yang Dazuo envoy, is the power getting stronger and stronger? We're so scared......"
"Zhou Dian, don't you know? The sect leader is not here, but we all have to respect Yang Dazuo's envoy...... Phew! But the one who spoke was not any one in the temple, but came from outside the temple.
Zhou Dian was slightly stunned, and shouted in disbelief: "Xin Ran? No, it's you. Haven't you participated in the Great Discussion for more than ten years? What kind of wind did you smoke this time, and your eyes are coming? "Over the years, the Wusan people have also been fighting against the Yuan, spreading around, and naturally when they have had a lot of dealings with the Five Elements Banner, Zhou Dian naturally heard Xin Ran's voice.
Everyone in the hall was also dumbfounded, and they all looked towards the door of the hall.
The five flag bearers strode into the hall side by side, while Xie Wuji was half a step behind. When they came to the hall, the five flag envoys nodded and hugged their fists with the five scattered people, and after seeing the salute, they glared angrily at Yang Xiao and the four gate masters.
Feng Wanli unceremoniously sneered: "It's really a rare guest, why are you five guys here?" Wouldn't it be because I couldn't get along outside? ”
Xin Ran sneered: "Zhou Dian is right, you are really full of bullshit and smelly." ”
Lei said angrily: "Xin Ran, don't fill half of the garlic here for Lao Tzu, don't be convinced, come and fight." ”
Tang Yang pursed his lips disdainfully, and mocked: "It's up to you? In my opinion, it is better to let your master come out and support you. ”
"You ......" Feng Wanli and Thunder shook the sky, his face was red and white, and the blue tendons on his forehead burst out. Even Wuya, the director of the Tianzi Gate, and Ouyang Zhen, the master of the Dizi Gate, who had never said a word, were also gloomy like water, and the aura around them was endless. Compared with the small contradictions with the Wusan people, they and the Five Elements Banner are the real enemies.
Xie Wuji secretly looked at everyone in the hall, and his heart was slightly cold, these Mingjiao giants are really not easy to match. Not to mention, Yang Xiao, the top master in the late stage of the day after tomorrow, the Wusan people are also in the middle of the acquired realm, not inferior to Zhuang Zheng, that is, Ouyang Zhen, Feng Wanli, and Thunder Shocking who sit in the top of the light all year round, and the three people who are not famous are also first-class masters in the early days of the day after tomorrow, which are equivalent to the four Wen Cangsong, as for the first person in the four gates, Ren Wuyan, has reached the realm of the middle of the day after tomorrow, and is not inferior to Zhuang Zheng and Wusanren.
"That's it!" Yang Xiao let out a low snort, interrupting the-for-tat confrontation between the two sides, but he was scheming, although he was pointed out by Tang Yang, he did not attack on the spot, but set his eyes on Xie Wuji, and said lightly: "This is Xie Wuji, the famous young hero who led my sect to fight against the Tartars a few months ago, right?" This time, Zhuang Zheng and the others will come to participate in the conference against the usual, it should be for you, right? In this way, my identity is probably not simple......" In his eyes, the vague meaning flashed, but his face was calm and abnormal, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
When everyone in the hall heard this, their faces moved, as if they had an understanding.
Xie Wuji was even more awe-inspiring, and secretly exclaimed: "This Yang Xiao is really powerful, and he lives up to his reputation, no wonder he was able to squeeze all the high-level leaders of the Ming Sect out of the top of the light and go away to other places...... but on his face, he was also quite calm, and did not show the slightest abnormality.
"Are you ......" Ren Wuya's eyes sparkled, and he opened his mouth to point out the guess in his heart. Suddenly, there was a scream outside the door, followed by a burst of scolding.
"What's going on?" Yang Xiao's face was slightly gloomy, and he asked loudly, he didn't think that someone would dare to make trouble on the top of the light today, this is too much to take him seriously, right? Everyone also hurriedly looked outside the hall, their faces were dark.
"Zhuang Zheng, Ren Wuya, borrow the disciples of the two of you, hehe......" A hoarse strange laugh sounded. Before the laughter fell, a cyan figure had already swept into the hall, and between his hands, there was also a five-star flag and a disciple of the four sects, but his body was still as fast as a ghost, and he didn't seem to be affected in the slightest.
"Wei Yixiao, you dare to ......" Zhuang Zheng and Ren Wuya's faces changed greatly at the same time, as if they had thought of something, and shouted in unison, but this time they had a very tacit understanding.
The five flag envoys and the four sect masters all had gloomy faces, and Yang Xiao and the five scattered people had different expressions, but they also guessed something, and they were not surprised.
Suddenly, the people in the hall only felt that the figure flashed, and Xie Wuji disappeared in place without seeing the slightest movement, and his body was also as fast as a ghost, even better than Wei Yixiao.
