Chapter 104 on Songshan Mountain
It's just that the development of the Huashan faction soon aroused the jealousy of other martial arts sects, and the Songshan faction was the first to bear the brunt, only two months after the apprenticeship ceremony, Yue Buqun received a message from Zuo Lengchan, and the original ten-year alliance set by the Wuyue Sword Sect together was advanced, and now it is scheduled to be held on the first day of August.
After getting the news, Yue Buqun decided to bring more than a dozen disciples such as Shen Chengping, Ling Huchong, Liang Fa, Gao Genming, Zhao Mingzi, and Shi Daizi after discussing with Ning Zhongze, plus dozens of outer disciples to participate in the alliance, while the other disciples guarded the mountain gate according to the rules and taught many disciples who had just started.
Yue Buqun was busy, arranged the affairs on Huashan, and then left Huashan with Shen Chengping and others, and when they arrived at a town near Tongguan, the Huashan faction and the people of the Hengshan faction converged, and nearly 100 people from the two factions went to Songshan together.
Now the relationship between the Huashan faction and the Hengshan faction is very close, when he was in Fuzhou before, Yue Buqun arranged for Ling Hu Chong to accompany the Hengshan faction to rush to the twenty-eighth shop, with the Dugu Nine Swords, Ling Hu Chong was there to help Dingxian Dingyi and the two divisions repel the attacking enemy, the relationship between the two factions was better, and the alliance also decided to go to Songshan together.
A few days later, everyone arrived at the foot of Songshan Mountain, and both parties were wary of the Songshan faction, so they naturally did not want to stay in the Songshan faction for longer. Everyone was reluctant to go up the mountain early, and it was not until the morning of the first day of the eighth month that Yue Buqun and Dingxian Shi Taicai led all the disciples to set off on Taimur Mountain.
Halfway up the mountain, four Songshan disciples came up to greet him, respectfully saluted Yue Buqun and Dingxian Shitai, and said: "Songshan is the last to learn, welcome the head of the Huashan faction, the head of the Hengshan faction, and the left head of the sect has been waiting on the mountain for a long time. ”
The four of them said: "Taishan, Hengshan, and the uncles and brothers of the two factions have all arrived yesterday. The arrival of the head of Yue and the Dingxian master is too great, and the Songshan faction is very honored. ”
Huashan, Hengshan people all the way up the mountain, only to see the mountain road cleaned clean, every few miles, there are several Songshan disciples prepared hot tea and pastries to welcome the guests, which shows that the Songshan faction is very thoughtful for this conference, but it can also be seen that Zuo Lengchan is determined to win the position of the head of the Wuyue faction.
After a journey, several Songshan disciples came up, and after greeting Yue Buqun and Dingxian Shitai, they said: "The heads and predecessors of the beggar gang, Kunlun, Emei, Kongtong, and Qingcheng factions have all gathered in Songshan today to participate in the ceremony of the election of the head of the Wuyue faction. Master Yue and Dingxian Shitai came just in time, and everyone was waiting for the two masters on the mountain. ”
There was a lot of arrogance between the eyebrows of these people, and listening to their tones, they obviously thought that the head of the Wuyue faction would not be able to get out of Zuo Lengchan's palm if he said anything.
As a result, the road up the mountain became more and more dangerous, and the disciples of the Songshan faction who led the way pointed all the way and said: "This is Qinggang Peak, Qinggangping." This is the Great Tieliang Gorge, the Little Tieliang Gorge. "The right side of Tieliang Gorge is full of strange rocks, and the left side is ten thousand deep ravines, and there is no bottom. A disciple of Songshan picked up a boulder and threw it down, the boulder collided with the mountain wall, and it was like thunder at first, and then the sound was very small, and finally it was inaudible.
Ling Hu Chong looked left and right, pouted and said to Shen Chengping: "Senior brother, it is really not easy for you to see these senior brothers of the Songshan faction. ”
Shen Chengping knew that he was going to make trouble again when he saw his expression, but he was already impatient with the arrogance of this Songshan disciple, so he said very cheerfully: "Why did the junior brother say this? ”
Linghu Chong sighed: "Senior brother, do you think, how many people came to Songshan today?" I'm afraid there are thousands, right? Every group of guests go up the mountain, they have to throw a big stone to demonstrate, they must prepare a lot of big stones here, you see there are still a lot of piles there, this mountain road is steep and slippery, to move these big stones here must have wasted a lot of effort! ”
After hearing this, the surrounding disciples immediately couldn't help but smile and nodded in response: "The senior brothers of the Songshan faction have really worked hard. ”
The Songshan disciples listened to these disciples of the Huashan Sect singing and sarcastically mocking him, and many of the big stones on the side of the road were indeed deliberately moved by them in advance. Although he was angry in his heart, he was irrefutable for a while. I had to snort and not answer.
After turning a corner, the clouds and fog in front of him were misty, and after continuing to ascend, he saw the interruption of the twin peaks, and a portal naturally appeared, and the wind blew out from the broken place, and the clouds and mist came with the wind. The disciple of Songshan said: "This place is called Chaotianmen. After passing through this gate, we will turn northwest and we will be there soon. ”
As the man said, they went up another part of the mountain road, and saw that on the top of the peak, an open land, countless people had gathered. Several Songshan disciples who led the way quickened their pace to report the news. Then you can hear the sound of drums, welcoming everyone from the Huashan faction and the Hengshan faction to the peak.
Zuo Lengchan was dressed in an earthy yellow cloth robe, led twenty disciples, and walked a few steps to greet him. Yue Buqun bowed his hand in return, Hengshan Sanding also returned the salute, Yue Buqun opened his mouth and said: "Huashan Yue Buqun has seen Senior Brother Zuo. ”
Zuo Lengzen said: "I haven't seen you for many days, and Senior Brother Yue's abundance is especially better than in the past." Senior Brother Yue has been in charge of the Huashan faction for many years, and the person who takes care of the Huashan faction is prosperous, and it is expected to gradually return to the former appearance, which is really gratifying! He has always been cold to people on weekdays, and at this time he said "gratifying", but there was no "gratifying" look on his face.
Yue Buqun listened to the mockery hidden in his words, saying that "people are prosperous and are expected to gradually return to their former appearance", which was actually a satire on his Huashan faction that was almost wiped out because of the internal fighting of the air sword.
Although Zuo Lengchan's words were not listened to, Yue Buqun still said politely: "Buqun is ordered by the master to take charge of the Huashan Portal, and he should take the revival of the Huashan faction as his own responsibility. Otherwise, he would be ashamed of the sages of the Huashan faction under Jiuquan. ”
The meaning of Yue Buqun's words was very clear, implying that if the Huashan faction was cut off in his hands, he would not be able to live against the ancestors of the Huashan faction even if he died. This is not only for Zuo Lengchan, but also for Hengshan Sanding around him.
Zuo Lengchan knew that Yue Buqun and Hengshan Sanding were already hostile to him at this time, if he was-for-tat, maybe the people of these two factions would directly leave at this moment. This five-mountain merger meeting can become the three-mountain merger conference.
So he softened his tone a little, and said slowly: "The Wuyue Sword Sect has always been in the same breath, and in the future, the five factions will be one, and the Huashan faction will be ranked as the sages, but it is no longer only the sages of the Huashan faction, but also the common sages of my Wuyue faction." Senior Brother Yue is interested in this, that's very good. ”
Yue Buqun and Dingxian Shitai were better, and the other people of the two factions heard Zuo Lengchan say this, and their faces were already filled with righteous indignation.
Seeing this, Zuo Lengchan hurriedly changed the topic and said: "Brother Tianmen of the Taishan Sect, Mo Da of the Hengshan Sect, and many martial arts friends such as Kunlun, Emei, Kongtong, Diancang, Qingcheng and many other martial arts friends have arrived, let's go over and see each other." ”
At this moment, I suddenly saw two yellow-clothed disciples of the Songshan Sect rushing up on the mountain road, and the two of them rushed with all their might, obviously in an emergency. Everyone on the summit looked at these two people in unison. After a while, the two of them ran to Zuo Lengchan and said: "Congratulations Master, Master Fangzheng, the abbot of Shaolin Temple, and the head of the Wudang faction, Chongxu Daoist, personally led the disciples of the two factions up the mountain!" ”
Zuo Lengchan hurriedly said when he heard this: "The two old men are also here?" That's a very polite one. This is something that needs to be met. He didn't seem to take the matter to heart. But Shen Chengping saw his sleeves trembling slightly, and the joy in his heart was hard to hide after all.
