Chapter 63: The Hongmen Brothers

Why is there no position of the fourth master? There are different theories, some legends have betrayed the position of the fourth master, and there are also said that the four and death are unlucky, so there is no such position.

The burly prisoner clenched his fists: "It turned out to be the fifth master, but what is the fifth master's half-body disciple?" ”

Le Zhengxian clenched his fists and pointed to the left: "The Pixiu million soldiers of the point are sweeping away the Qiankun of Hu Fierce Town, the hero is a natural son, a brother of the Wind Tiger and Yunlongtong." ”

The meaning of this sentence is probably that heroes don't ask where they come from.

The burly prisoner patted his chest: "The steward of the eight halls in the South Mountain of Hongmen, Fan Guojun, has invited the five masters of the eight halls outside Emei Mountain!" ”

After the person who claimed to be Fan Guojun finished speaking, the prisoners in the rear clasped their fists together and shouted: "Please! ”

With that, the men dodged a way.

Tang Anshu breathed a sigh of relief and asked in a low voice, "Is this the end of the matter?" ”

Who knows, Le Zhengxian replied in a low voice: "This is just the beginning." ”

When Tang Anshu and Le Zhengxian walked to the depths of Prison B, a man with a red cloth tied to his arm stepped forward to stop them.

Le Zhengxian hugged his fists and said: "Le Zhengxian, a half-body disciple of Emeishan, asks to see the dragon head." ”

The red cloth man said: "When I first entered Hongmen, I swore to show my sincerity on the same day, and the mouth of Changsha Bay was close to the sky, and I saw the peace through the dragon dance." ”

Le Zhengxian continued: "The two brothers of the pine and cypress gather, the Zhongjie Lianhua Pavilion, the former brothers of the Zhongyi Hall are here, and there will be a million soldiers in the city." ”

The man in red cloth raised his voice: "Fu Temple is coming to the police!" ”

Le Zhengxian also said loudly: "Anti-Qing and restore Ming, I Hongying!" ”

The red cloth man clenched his fists and raised them above his head: "Pioneer Zhu Yin has invited Brother Hongmen!" ”

With that, Zhu Yin stood aside and motioned for the two to move forward.

When the two of them walked past Zhu Yin and continued to move towards the depths of the cave, Tang Anshu asked in a low voice, "Brother Xian, it's not over yet?" Why are there so many rules in Hongmen? ”

Le Zhengxian said with a smile: "There are more rules of the White Lotus Sect, and they have to be repeated every day, and I was almost annoyed to death in the past. ”

Tang Anshu was stunned: "It sounds like the only thing you did in the past few decades was to join various sects. ”

Le Zhengxian looked at Tang Anshu: "I thought you wouldn't laugh." ”

At this moment, suddenly, dozens of people came out of the large and small caves on both sides of the front, standing on both sides and shouting in unison: "The five people are separated from a poem, and no one knows Hong Ying on their bodies." At this time, it was rumored that the brothers would later meet and reunite. You and I have a big difference in waist level, and my mother gave me a side in my body. Embroidered five dragons to help Zhenjun, embroidered Biao Shou and the same. ”

Tang Anshu followed there and whispered: "Harmony and harmony, harmony and harmony......"

Le Zhengxian touched him: "If you don't understand, don't shout blindly, do you understand what it means?" ”

Tang Anshu shook his head: "I don't understand, I think it sounds like a rhyme." ”

Le Zhengxian couldn't help laughing, looked sideways at Tang Anshu with a puzzled face, and felt even more funny, almost laughing out loud, he didn't expect this kid to have such a fun side.

Suddenly, the fire rose in front of them, and the two of them stopped and saw several stone tables in the distance, one of which sat next to a bearded man who stared at the two of them as if he were the king of the Bodhisattva Temple.

"He Buhong, the leader of Zhongnan Mountain!" The bearded man got up and clenched his fists and introduced himself, "Two brothers, please." ”

As soon as He Buhong showed his hand, Le Zhengxian and Tang Anshu immediately hugged their fists in return and sat down at the stone table according to He Buhong's instructions.

Tang Anshu looked at He Buhong, although this guy looks bearded, but he is only about fifty years old, at first glance he is swollen and seems to be a little fat, but every time he inhales, the muscles hidden under the skin will be slightly revealed, from this point it can be seen that He Buhong should be a master of the house.

After Le Zhengxian sat down, he hugged his fists: "We intend to be listed in the Nanshan Army!" ”

This means that we are here to take refuge in Zhongnan Mountain Xiangtang.

He Buhong asked, "Who taught you?" ”

Le Zhengxian replied: "I have come with my intention." ”

He Buhong asked again: "Where did you come from?" ”

Le Zhengxian replied: "From the east." ”

He Buhong asked again: "Who is your guarantor?" ”

Le Zhengxian replied: "Emeishan Xiangtang is the leader of Yan Dingju!" ”

He Buhong asked again: "Brothers eat three meters and seven points of sand, are they in trouble?" ”

Le Zhengxian replied: "What my brother eats, I also eat." ”

He Buhong nodded, and asked again: "There are thirty-six oaths in the rules, and the third oath can be answered?" ”

Le Zhengxian replied: "The brothers of the Hong family outside the provinces, regardless of the farmers and businessmen, the guests of the rivers and lakes must stay for one night and two meals, if they don't think about family affection, cheat and don't know, and outsiders look at each other, they will die under ten thousand knives!" ”

He Buhong asked again: "Can the twenty-third oath be answered?" ”

Le Zhengxian got up and replied loudly: "Don't fabricate right and wrong, there are additions and subtractions, and those who divide their brothers will die under ten thousand knives!" ”

"Brother sit down!" He Buhong stretched out his hand, and then put a teacup on the stone table on the teapot, "Please." ”

Tang Anshu looked at the teapot with a teacup on the top, as well as the two teacups placed next to the teapot, and knew that this was the teabowl array, this kind of teabowl array rose from Hongmen, whether it was the Qinggang, the Elders' Association, or other small sects, they were all in use.

At present, this kind of pendulum is called "Guan Gong Shou Jingzhou".

Le Zhengxian took off the cup at the top of the teapot, put it on top of the other two teacups, posed in the shape of "Pin", then lifted the teapot and poured it full, stretched out his hand and said, "Please!" ”

He Buhong picked up the cup of tea at the top and arched his hand: "Please." ”

Le Zhengxian gave Tang Anshu a look, and Tang Anshu and him each picked up the remaining two cups, and then drank them all.

After the three of them drank the cup of tea, the ceremony was over, and He Buhong frowned slightly and said: "Brother Lezheng, you are also Hongmen, why are you trapped here?" ”

Le Zhengxian replied bluntly: "Don't dare to deceive your own brother, I'll make a long story short!" ”

After that, Le Zhengxian picked up important things and said them.

After listening to this, He Buhong nodded and said: "There is indeed an old man named Chen Boyao in Prison B, and he does claim to be the leader of the Double Sword Society, but we have never confirmed it, but this old man seems to know the world. ”

"Know the world?" Tang Anshu thought it was strange, this was amazing, right?

Le Zhengxian asked: "How do you know the law?" ”

He Buhong said: "If he doesn't leave the prison, he can know what is happening in the outside world, and the strangest thing is that he knows what happened up and down in the prison." ”

When Le Zhengxian heard this, he immediately asked, "Can we meet him?" ”

He Buhong said: "Follow me." ”

When He Buhong took them to the depths, the two of them found that Prison B was amazingly large, not only one sea cave, but several huge sea caves connected together, each sea hole was controlled by a different sect, the sea cave next to the gate was controlled by the Hong Gate, and the rest were controlled by the Qing Gang, the Elders' Association, the Broken Golden Gate, and the Iron Cloth Gate.

"Not only that, but there are also Jade Casting Society and Heyu Gate here." He Buhong sighed, "There are almost all people from all walks of life on the rivers and lakes here, it's sad." ”

Tang Anshu asked: "If I'm not mistaken, the jade casting will be born from the broken golden gate, and the Heyu gate is separated from the iron cloth gate, it stands to reason that it can be regarded as a betrayal of the master's gate, and water and fire are incompatible?" ”

He Buhong explained: "Of course, but in this environment, what's the point of killing each other? Therefore, no matter how big the hatred is, everyone has let go. ”

As he spoke, He Buhong stopped, pointed to a separate cave in front of him and said, "Senior Chen is in the cave in front." ”

Le Zhengxian hugged his fists and thanked him: "Thank you for leading the way." ”

He Buhong said: "Brother of your own, don't be polite. ”

Le Zhengxian said: "It should be." ”

Just as Le Zhengxian and Tang Anshu were about to walk over, He Buhong said again: "I have to remind the two of you to remember the oath of the rules and regulations, and don't betray your brother." ”

Le Zhengxian clenched his fists: "Of course, otherwise the five thunders will be destroyed!" ”

He Buhong nodded, turned to leave, and disappeared into the darkness.

After He Buhong left, Tang Anshu said in a low voice: "You have been doing eyeliner for so many years, isn't it actually a betrayal?" Although you memorize those vows well, you are really not afraid of retribution? ”

Le Zhengxian was very unhappy: "An Shu, although I am eyeliner in the dark ear, you have to remember that I just take news other than life and death, never betray, and never cooperate with the people in the yamen to frame my brothers, this is the principle of being a man, and it is also the morality of walking the rivers and lakes." ”

Tang Anshu smiled: "That's good." ”

Le Zhengxian only understood at this time that Tang Anshu's words were deliberately provoking himself and testing himself, after all, he never trusted anyone.

When the two of them came to the entrance of the cave, they saw an emerald green light source in the corner, and the strange thing was that it was supposed to be a light source, but it could not illuminate the surroundings, just like a green spot on a black cloth.

To the right of the green light source, the two of them vaguely saw a figure lying on the wall of the cave writing something.

Tang Anshu asked: "May I ask if it is Chen Boyao and Chen seniors?" ”

The old man in the dark turned around slightly and glanced at the two of them: "Come, come here." ”

Tang Anshu and Le Zhengxian glanced at each other, leaned over and walked in slowly.

When the two of them got closer, they finally saw what the emerald green light source was, it turned out to be a fish, a fish locked in a transparent sphere, green all over, and emitting green light all over its body.

What is this? Tang Anshu was stunned, this was the first time he had seen such a strange thing.

Le Zhengxian also squatted down and looked at it carefully, and blurted out: "Stygian fish? ”

Chen Boyao smiled and said: "There is vision, that's right, this is the Stygian Fish, are you thinking, it turns out that the Stygian Fish really exists?" ”

Le Zhengxian was surprised: "Yes, I always thought that the Stygian Fish was just a legend. ”

Tang Anshu asked, "What is the Stygian Fish?" ”

Le Zhengxian explained: "The world is divided into three worlds, one of the three worlds is called bitter, also called the bitter world, the world is called the bitter sea, and the bitter sea is also called the sea of suffering, there are fish in the sea of the underworld, can move freely in the three worlds, if you take it, you can see through the mysteries of the three worlds, the legend is like this." ”

"If you take it, if you eat this thing, you will die instantly." Chen Boyao smiled, then turned around and approached Le Zhengxian, "Look at my eyes!" ”

After getting closer, Le Zhengxian and Tang Anshu saw clearly that Chen Boyao's eyes seemed to be only the whites of his eyes - he was blind?

Chen Boyao smiled: "You are thinking, I am a blind person, right? No, I'm not blind, as long as the fish is there, I can see everything around me illuminated by the fish, but when the fish is taken away, I become truly blind. ”

Tang Anshu shook his head, indicating that he didn't understand.

Le Zhengxian also looked puzzled.
