Chapter Eighty-Five: The Tarzan Conference
After Zhang Wuji left, everyone rested in the town for a day and continued to go north.
The Ming Sect Army has developed rapidly, the southeast of Zhejiang has been controlled by Xu Shouhui, Long Tao and others have traveled all the way, and there are leaders in the sect to greet them everywhere, although they are not as pomp as the emperor, but the scene of thousands of people greeting them is indeed enough to comfort their lives.
Xie Xun and Dai Qisi were relieved and excited to see that the power of the Ming Sect had become so great, and it was many times stronger than when Yang Dingtian was there.
Mingjiao is fighting for the world of the Mongols, although Zhao Min didn't say anything, but he was depressed in his heart, and he would always occasionally show it on his face.
Long Tao thought that at the Taishan Conference, the discussion would be how to expel the Yuan people, Zhao Min went to the inconvenience, after everyone crossed the Yangtze River, they arranged for Huiyue to take Zhao Min back to the ancient tomb first, leaving only Xiao Zhao and Zhou Zhiruo to accompany them.
The group continued to go north, reached the border of Lu and Anhui, the Huaisi area, and entered Han Shantong's sphere of influence.
At this time, it was still early for the Taishan Conference, and Long Tao decided to rest in Haozhou first, waiting for the leaders of the sect to gather, and then go to Mount Tai together.
When approaching Haozhou, Han Shantong led his generals Zhu Yuanzhang, Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, etc. to welcome out thirty miles away, the military horses were neat, the armor was bright, and in the sound of gongs and drums, he hugged Long Tao and his party into the city.
A few days later, Yang Xiao, Fan Yao, Wei Yixiao, and Yin Tianzheng arrived one after another, and the two envoys of light and the four great Dharma kings gathered again after more than 20 years, and everyone was embarrassed.
When the five scattered people, the five banners in charge of the flag envoys, the four masters of heaven and earth, wind and thunder, and the commanders of the rebel army from all over the country arrived, Haozhou Chengnei held a banquet, and the heroes raised their glasses and drank freely, and they were drunk for several days.
Many old sect members couldn't help but cry with joy when they saw the Ming Sect elders reunited, and the weather was far better than before.
"Burn my body, the flames are blazing, what is the joy of life? Why is it so painful to die? For the sake of good and evil, only the light is the cause. Joy and sorrow are dust. Have mercy on me, there are many sorrows! Have mercy on me, there are many sorrows! ”
Long Tao stood on the city tower, looking around, the congregation was all dressed in white robes, full of clothes and snow, thinking that these good men were about to fight in the four fields in order to resist the tyrannical yuan, and he was only afraid that there would be no day to get together in this life, although he was open-minded by nature, he couldn't help but be enthusiastic.
After gathering in Haozhou for half a month, the congregations dispersed one after another, rushing to various places for the rebels, and the giant wood flag and the thick earth flag set off first to prepare for the venue in Mount Tai.
Long Tao took a group of masters of the Ming Sect to march slowly, and entered the territory of Shandong, along the way you can see the Mongolian defeated army fleeing, thinking that Han Shantong, Zhu Yuanzhang and others won the battle again, and the sphere of influence expanded a lot to the north.
One day, I came to the foot of Mount Tai.
Considering that the invitation is from all over the world, the number of participants must be large, so the venue is located in a spacious place at the foot of the mountain.
The two flags of thick soil and giant wood have already formed a huge square, a high wooden platform has been erected in the field, and a wooden shed has been set up on the side of the field, and everything is ready.
Long Tao and the others arrived one night in advance, and after resting for a night, the next day was the time of the conference.
The reception in the venue was in charge of the beggar gang disciples, and on the high platform in the center of the venue, the two dragon heads with sticks and bowls, and the two elders of the law enforcement were greeting the people of the six major factions.
Shaolin Kongwen abbot and empty wisdom monk are here, and there are three old monks behind him, a yellow face, a black face, a white face, the yellow-faced old monk only has one eye left, if Long Tao is here, you can guess at a glance that these three old monks are the doom, the catastrophe, the disaster.
Wudang sent Song Yuanqiao, Yu Lianzhou, and Mo Shenggu, and Zhou Zhiruo also took the three Jingzi seniors to sit in the seat as the head.
The head of the Huashan faction, Xian Yutong, died of his own golden silkworm poison on the top of the light, and the head has not been elected so far, so the tall and short two elders participated in the conference as elders, and the Kunlun faction He Taichong and his wife, and the five elders of Kongtong were all there.
After the people of the six factions sat down, other sects, gangs, cottages, famous boxers, lone rangers, etc. arrived one after another, although these people did not belong to the famous faction, but the number of people added up was the largest.
After a period of noise, the square finally gradually settled down, the four elders of the beggar gang stood on the platform, and at a cursory glance, they were afraid that there were no less than five or six thousand people, and the people had almost arrived, and the four elders and the people of the six factions gave up their hands and sat in a row of seats opposite them.
Outside the venue, a beggar disciple shouted: "The four Dharma kings of Mingjiao Purple, Platinum, and Green have arrived!" ”
There was a sudden silence in the field, the names of the four Dharma kings have not been obvious for more than 20 years, and few people know about the younger generation.
Dai Qisi, Yin Tianzheng, Xie Xun, and Wei Yixiao appeared on the stage, and everyone saw the four Dharma Kings of Mingjiao gathered for the first time, especially the purple-shirted Dragon King, who had always only heard of his name, but now when he saw it, he was actually a beautiful woman, and the heroes in the audience suddenly whispered.
The Four Dharma Kings sat on the four seats on the other side of the Six Parties, alongside the four elders of the Beggar Gang, with three chairs left in the middle.
The beggar disciples in the audience shouted again: "The Ming Sect has left and right the light messenger has arrived!" ”
Yang Xiao and Fan Yao came to the stage, the younger generation is okay, the older generation knows the name of "Xiaoyao Two Immortals", they can't help but change their expressions, Yang and Fan's martial arts are all the strengths of all families, and then they have their own lineage, they were already the great masters of the mighty martial arts, more than 20 years have passed, these two people are afraid that they have already become rare peerless masters.
Yang Xiao and Fan Yao came to the two chairs in the middle, but they did not take their seats, and the four Dharma Kings and the four elders of the Beggar Gang stood up together.
These ten people, each of them are all generous, put outside, each of them deserves to be a sect master, the ten people looked solemn, and shouted in unison: "Respectfully ask the sect master to help the master!" ”
Long Tao walked up slowly, smiling and calm.
The leaders of the six factions all stood up to greet each other, and most of the heroes in the audience had only heard of Long Tao's name, and very few had seen his true face, but now they all stood up and watched together.
Everyone saw that he was very young, chic and handsome, not like a martial arts tycoon who led a group of heroes, but like a son of a family, a handsome son, and couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
Many female disciples of the sect were attracted by his unique prodigal temperament, and they couldn't help but feel their hearts beating wildly, their eyes were shining, and even worse, they were so angry that they became shy.
Long Tao came to the middle chair and said with a smile: "You don't have to be polite, please take a seat!" ”
After everyone sat down, Yang Xiao stepped out, walked to the middle of the stage, shook his head, and said loudly: "I have to be appreciated by the heroes of the world to attend the meeting, and the Mingjiao beggars are honored and favored!" On behalf of the Mingjiao beggars, I would like to preside over this meeting, and thank you in advance for your hard work and hospitality! As he spoke, he made another round.
Everyone said a few polite words, the scene was noisy, and after the silence, suddenly someone in the audience shouted: "Yang Zuo, you have gathered the heroes of the world, I don't know what is going on?" ”
Someone else shouted: "Xie Xun has returned, presumably the dragon slayer knife has also been brought back, do you want to hold a sword raising conference?" ”
There was another commotion off the field.
Yang Xiao smiled slightly, his voice overshadowed the audience, and said: "Our Sect Army is now starting up in the Quartet, and I have summoned you here today to discuss, everyone will work together to drive out the Tartars and save the great cause of the people!" ”
"Of course, it's business." Yang Xiao paused, and continued: "The hero just now mentioned the sect of King Xie Fa, I believe that many friends are here for him today, Mingjiao today is private and then public, first with you to break off the matter of King Xie, no matter what the result is, Mingjiao should be a good friend of you, afterwards, let's discuss the great cause of anti-Yuan." ”
Xie Xun strode out, his yellow hair floating behind his shoulders, although his eyes were blind, he still couldn't hide his majesty.
He walked to Taichung and said in a deep voice: "Cheng Kun, come up!" ”
