Chapter Forty-Eight: The World Is Enemy
It was late autumn, the fallen leaves were yellow, the barren valley was secluded, lonely, desolate and overgrown, and the traces of people were extinct.
The bleak mountain wind swept over the barren valley, blowing the grass and trees down, and the sand and gravel rolling.
Just as the grass and trees lurked, a cluster of buildings shrouded in black clouds loomed, and the surrounding woods of twisted trees that looked like ghosts made people feel as if they were entering a ghost cave.
The ancient courtyard is forested, lonely and lonely.
In normal times, even if this is the residence of the Xuanyin Sect, one of the five major factions in the Central Plains, few people are willing to come here, and the gate of the ancient courtyard is closed all year round, and the iron lock is rusty.
However, today, in the tallest hall in the complex, there are most of the martial arts masters above the martial arts of today's rivers and lakes.
Shaolin Temple, Wudang Sect, Eagle Sect, Sword Rain Building, Nine Swords Gate....... Above the martial arts of the rivers and lakes, as long as the forces with a little fame are gathered here at this moment.
Those who can sit here at this moment, anyone who walks out alone can attract attention on the rivers and lakes, and if they all gather, I am afraid that even the imperial court will be terrified.
"Those who should have come have already come, thanks to all the fellow Jianghu and the donors of Xuanming, Lao Wei Yue has presided over this meeting on his behalf. β
Master Fang Yuan, the abbot of Shaolin Temple, silently recited Amitabha Buddha a few times, raised his head and looked at everyone and said slowly.
"Master Fang Yuan is a martial arts master, and he has nothing to do. β
It was a thin old man who spoke, his fingers shaped like withered claws, and there was a hint of inexplicable meaning in his tone.
This person is the Xuanyin Sect leader Xuanming Zhenren, it stands to reason that this is the Xuanyin Sect's home meeting, and he should preside over it, but at this time, there are a number of Jianghu forces gathered in the Xuanyin Valley, although the Xuanyin Sect is one of the five major factions in the Central Plains, after all, it is still insufficient.
"Then the old man thanked the Xuan Ming donor. β
Master Fang Yuan is not pretentious, he generously agrees, and the meeting here is to solve the matter related to the safety of the entire Jianghu martial arts, and he cannot be careless.
Then everyone in the main hall flattered one after another, and the entire hall became noisy, which also slightly alleviated the extremely oppressive atmosphere around everyone, until a quarter of an hour when Master Fang Yuan slightly signaled the main hall to calm down.
"It is estimated that everyone is already very clear, in order to resist the evil demons that have been rare in these rivers and lakes for hundreds of years, the Crane Dao people, the old brother Fang Tong, and many heroes have already gone before me. β
At this point, Monk Fang Yuan's indifferent face also showed a trace of grief.
"The soul is brave, the deceased is gone, and the old man can only chant for them day and night, and exceedance as soon as possible, but the evil demon will not be eliminated for a day, and the rivers and lakes will be restless for a day, I hope that all heroes will not be stingy to contribute. β
"Hmph, it's just a yellow-mouthed kid left and right, monk, you still get straight to the point, it's useless to talk about these things, it seems that this time it must be the court that wants to move us, and we must not sit still!"
I saw a middle-aged man with gray temples and a gaze like a falcon snorted coldly, and took a step forward and said.
This person is the head of the Sky Eagle Sect, Eagle Feiyang, and his fiery temper is known to everyone.
In fact, this gathering is not just because of the storm that Yang Ming has set off on the rivers and lakes, but also because his identity is a gold medal brocade guard, representing the side of the imperial court, and his action means that the imperial court may have to deal with these martial arts forces that are free from things.
Otherwise, no matter how high Yang Ming's martial arts are, after all, he is just a new figure who has not appeared for a long time, where can he use it, and almost a few forces in the Jianghu martial arts have gathered here to discuss ways to deal with him.
The so-called dealing with the evil demons is just a reason for everyone to gather, and what they are more afraid of is the court behind Yang Ming.
"You can't say that, Zixia swordsman Yue Chong seems to have died at the hands of that person, didn't Bai Yushu Xian's nephew also warn this person that he is invincible, plus the losses of various sects and factions this time, I am afraid that the martial arts of that guy named Yang Ming will not be much worse. β
The head of the Nine Swords Sect was dressed in soap-colored clothes, bowed his head, and said leisurely with the long sword in his hand.
"Hahahaha! Their Four Elephant Sects are just a group of people who bully the soft and fear the hard, and if they are killed, they will not be able to close the mountain, and they will not even dare to appear in the Alliance, so they naturally have to exaggerate their opponents desperately, so as not to shame their Four Elephant Sects!"
Ying Feiyang mocked loudly, not afraid that his words would reach the ears of the Four Elephant Sect.
Then his face retracted slightly, full of resentment:
"As for the defeat of the junior disciples this time, it must be that the evil obstacle set a trap and relied on the army to encircle and kill them, so that they were all annihilated, if he dares to appear in front of me, I will definitely cut him with a thousand knives to vent the hatred in my heart!"
"Besides, even if his martial arts are really strong, is it still stronger than the original Demon Sect Leader Dugu Sheng? Now is not seven years ago, even if Dugu Sheng appears in front of this seat now, this seat has the confidence to compete with him!"
When the words fell, everyone present had different thoughts, could it be that Dugusheng's martial arts had not been one step closer in the past seven years? But looking at the masters in this hall, there was a burst of peace of mind.
At the beginning, Xuandingfeng Dugu won and defeated the heads of the five major factions in a row, but in the end, he did not have to retreat in the face of the general trend of the rivers and lakes, and disappeared in the rivers and lakes.
"Okay, in that case, everyone is a smart person, and the old man won't say much, let's talk about how to deal with the situation of the imperial court. Master Fang Yuan clasped his hands together and meditated on his sins, with sorrow on his face.
"What is there to talk about, the court dares to stretch out its hand to cut it. β
The owner of the Sword Rain Building said disdainfully, but he was a little tired of this alliance.
"Tsk, I think you can make good use of it before you cut it down, or it's a good idea to drive away the wolf. Xuan Ming, who had been standing by like a wooden man, suddenly spoke up.
"You meanββ?" The eyes of the owner of the Sword Rain Building lit up.
There are three major factions in this world, the righteous path, the demonic path, and the evil way.
At this time, the righteous path is prosperous, the demon path has subsided, and there has been a lot of dirt between good and evil in the past seven years.
And the main business of the evil way is to spend money on people's lives.......
"I'm afraid those people aren't that stupid. β
"The interests are moving, and besides, the most important thing in that line of work is reputation......." Xuan Ming said leisurely.
silent
For a moment, there was silence in the hall.
.......
At the same time, Yanjing City, Jinyiwei headquarters.
In the long pavilion, Luo An sat on a stone bench, grinding the white chess piece in his hand and pondering.
In front of the table is a chessboard, on which the black and white twins are densely entangled, and they are indistinguishable.
Suddenly, he suddenly dropped the piece in his hand towards a space on the board.
"Haha!
Luo An laughed and let go of his hand, and the chess game suddenly changed.......
........
ps: I suddenly found that the first copy of 100,000 words is not finished, but it's almost over, and I should return to the main world in about ten chapters.
