It's this year's Duanyang Festival at your fingertips. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Zhang Wuji led the Mingjiao group to the Shaolin Temple.
The front hall and back hall of Shaolin Temple, the left and right compartments, are crowded with heroes from all walks of life. Among the martial arts figures from all walks of life, some have a grudge against Xie Xun and are planning to kill him to avenge his hatred; some covet the dragon slaying knife and are delusional to win the treasure sword and become the supreme martial arts figure; some have personal grievances with each other and want to take the opportunity to make a decision; most of them come to see the excitement. Shaolin Temple sent more than 100 monks to receive and lead them to rest in various places in the temple.
The Wudang faction only arrived at Yu Lianzhou and Yin Liting. Zhang Wuji stepped forward to greet him, please ask Zhang Sanfeng how he is well. Yu Lianzhou asked quietly: "Have you ever heard Chen Youliang's message?" Zhang Wuji briefly explained the reason for his farewell, and learned that Chen Youliang did not go to Wudang to disturb him, and this time Song Yuanqiao and Zhang Songxi did not come, just to protect the teacher on the mountain and prevent treachery. Yu Lianzhou also said that since Song Yuanqiao heard the only son's conspiracy with his own ears and saw his only son kill himself, he was sad and grieved, he didn't think about tea and food, and his body was almost half thin, but he arranged for the whole faction to hide the funerals of Song Qingshu and Mo Shenggu from his master, and he didn't dare to talk about it, for fear of worrying about the master.
In the following hour, more and more heroes from all walks of life gathered, and the swordsmen of the Hejian Shuangsha and Qinghai factions who attacked the Vajra Demon Circle that day also arrived. The Huashan faction, the Kongtong faction, and the Kunlun faction all had masters attending the meeting, but the Emei faction had no one on the mountain for the time being.
Zhang Wuji not only hoped to meet Zhou Zhiruo so that he could invite Li Shuchong to join forces with him to defeat the enemy, but also worried that the woman who attacked him that night was her, and he didn't know why she was plotting against herself, and he was even more afraid that she would secretly poison Zhao Min. The Mingjiao group gathered in a side hall in the West Chamber, and did not talk to the heroes from all walks of life, and there were too many grievances in the Ming Sect, and the enemies met, but they were afraid that the conference had not been opened, and they had already fought with the Quartet of grievances.
At noon, the monk in the temple invited the heroes to come to a large square on the right side of the mountain. It was originally a vegetable garden of hundreds of acres where monks planted vegetables, but at this time it had been flattened and dozens of large wooden sheds were erected. Qunhao sat down with the guidance of the monk of Zhike. The large number of people in each sect and gang occupies a shed for themselves, and the smaller number of people sits in a shed.
Peng Yingyu told Zhang Wuji about the origins of the outstanding people on the field one by one. The group of heroes gathered, Xun is a grand event, many mountains and forests that have rarely walked on the rivers and lakes have also appeared at this time. Under Peng Yingyu's investigation, there were more than 4,600 people on the field, regardless of the Ming Sect. Zhang Wuji, Yang Xiao and others were worried when they saw that most of the people attending the meeting were friends and foes.
After the guests sat down, the Shaolin monks came out in batches, according to the words of Yuan, Hui, Fa, Xiang and Zhuang, and greeted the heroes, and finally the empty wisdom monk, followed by the nine old monks of the Dharma Hall.
Kong Zhi walked to the middle of the square, saluted, proclaimed the Buddha's name, and said: "Today, the world's heroes have come to appreciate their faces, and Shaolin has sent them to the light-sensitive pet." It's just that the abbot of our temple suddenly fell ill and had no chance to meet Junxian, so he ordered the old man to apologize solemnly. ”
Zhang Wuji felt slightly strange: "That day, Master Kongwen went to pay homage in front of his grandfather's spirit, his face was absolutely not sick, and his spirit was shining, how could a person with profound internal skills like him suddenly get sick? Could it be that he was injured?"
At the end of the Southern Song Dynasty, Guo Jing and Huang Rong had invited the world's heroes to gather in Dashengguan and Xiangyang to discuss the plan to resist the Mongol invasion.
I only heard Kong Zhi say again: "The golden lion king Xie Xun is a disaster for martial arts, and he is guilty of a lot of crimes, but fortunately he was captured by our temple." The Shaolin faction does not dare to be self-dictatorated, and respectfully invites all those who respect martial arts to discuss the disposal strategy. He was born with a sad face, and then he was even more listless when he spoke, and when he finished speaking, he closed down and withdrew.
On the southeast corner stood a man, burly, with a black and white beard flying in the wind, looking around at the heroes, his eyes were blazing, and his appearance was very majestic. Peng Yingyu informed Zhang Wuji that this person was Xia Qing, an old boxer in Shandong. I only heard his voice like a loud bell, and said: "This Xie Xun has done a lot of evil, and your faction can actually capture it and benefit the martial arts, which is really not shallow." The two monks of Kongwen and Kongzhi are too modest, and these wicked people will be killed with a knife immediately, that is, why bother to ask others? Since today is a gathering of heroes in the world, our meeting will be called the Lion Slaying Conference. Wouldn't it be happy to put this Xie Xun to death, eat a mouthful of his flesh and drink a mouthful of his blood, and avenge the innocent deaths of his friends?" As soon as this remark came out, hundreds of people around echoed it, saying that it was better to kill it as soon as possible.
In the midst of the chaos, I suddenly heard a gloomy voice say: "Xie Xun is the protector of the Ming Sect, if the Shaolin Sect was not afraid of offending the Ming Sect, they would have killed him with a knife, why invite everyone to come here to share the responsibility? These words are yin and yang, but they are still clear in the ears of everyone. The people looked together to see where the sound came, but they could not see who it was. Evidently the man was of short stature, and did not stand up when he spoke, and sat in the midst of the crowd, and no one could see him.
Xia Xuan said loudly: "Is it 'drunk and immortal' Brother Situ? Then Xie Xun and I have a grudge against my brother for murder, and the eldest husband is responsible for doing things alone, so please take the Shaolin monks out of the way, and the old man will kill him with a knife." The demons of the Demon Sect came to find their bodies, although they were aimed at the person surnamed Xia in Shandong. ”
The man in the crowd smiled sadly again, and said: "Brother Xia, everyone in the rivers and lakes knows that the dragon slaying knife of the martial arts supreme is in the hands of Xie Xun. Since the Shaolin faction has Xie Xun, how can it not have the reason to treasure the sword? When people kill Xie Xun, it is a guest, and it is the most important thing to raise the sword and establish authority. I said, Master Kongzhi, you don't have to pretend, you happily take out the dragon slaying treasure knife, and let everyone open their eyes is serious. Your Shaolin faction has been the head of the martial arts for thousands of years, there are not many knives, there are not too many knives, there are no fewer knives, in short, it is the supreme of martial arts. ”
Peng Yingyu whispered to Zhang Wuji: "The person who spoke was called 'drunk and immortal' Situ Qianzhong. This person is cynical, I heard that he does not apprentice, does not accept apprentices, does not belong to any sect and gang, rarely works with people in his life, no one knows the details of his martial arts, and he is sneering when he speaks, but often in one sentence. ”
I only heard seven or eight people in the audience follow: "This is reasonable." Please ask the Shaolin faction to take out the dragon slaying knife and let everyone take a look. ”
Kong Zhi said slowly: "The Dragon Slayer Knife is not in our temple, and Lao Qu has never seen it in his life, I don't know if there is really such a knife in the world." ”
When the heroes heard this, they immediately discussed, the square was noisy, and everyone at the meeting originally believed that this meeting must have a great relationship with the dragon slaying knife, but they didn't know that Kong Zhi actually denied it, and everyone was surprised.
Kong Zhi was followed by nine old monks, all wearing big red robes. After the noisy voices of the group subsided, one of the nine monks stepped forward and said loudly: "The dragon slaying knife was originally in Xie Xun's hands, but when the faction captured him, the knife was not by his side. The abbot of this temple is a major event in martial arts, and he has been examined in detail. Xie Xun is stubborn and arrogant, and he does not tell the truth. Today's hero event, firstly, is to discuss how to deal with Xie Xun, and secondly, to ask the heroes about the whereabouts of the dragon slaying knife. Whoever hears the news, let him say so. The group looked at each other, and no one could answer.
"Drunk and immortal" Situ Qianzhong said in a strange manner: "In the martial arts, it has been said for a hundred years: 'The supreme of martial arts, the sword slays the dragon, commands the world, don't dare to disobey.'" If you don't come out of the sky, who will fight?' In addition to the dragon slaying knife, there is also the sword of the sky. This Heavenly Sword was originally heard to be in the hands of the Emei faction, but the Western Regions Guangming fought a battle, but it never ended. Although today's meeting is called the Heroes Conference, can't the heroes and females of the Emei faction come?" everyone burst out laughing when they heard the last sentence.
In the midst of the laughter, a monk reported loudly: "The leader of the beggar gang Shi led the elders and disciples of the beggar gang to arrive." ”
Kong Zhi said: "Please!" The beggar gang is the largest gang in the rivers and lakes, and he personally greeted him.
I saw a column of people walking quickly towards the square, about 150 people, all of them were ragged men, although the momentum of the beggar gang in recent years has not been as good as in the past, after all, the hundred-legged insects, dead but not stiff, still have great potential in the rivers and lakes, no one dares to despise them, most of them stand up.
But seeing that there were two elderly beggars first, Zhang Wuji recognized them as the Elder of Gong Transmission and the Elder of Law Enforcement. Behind the two old beggars, there was an ugly girl of twelve or thirteen years old, with her nostrils facing the sky, and two big front teeth showing out of her wide mouth, which was Shi Hongshi, the daughter of the gang leader Shi Huolong.
She held the beggar gang leader's token to beat the dog stick, followed by Shi Hongshi's palm stick leader, palm bowl dragon head, followed by eight bags of elders, seven bags of disciples, and six bags of disciples. The beggar gang arrived this time, and the lowest rank was also a six-bag disciple.
Seeing that it was a girl who was holding the dog stick, Kong Zhi hesitated, not knowing who the helper was and who he should talk to, so he had to bow and say vaguely: "The Shaolin monks welcome the beggars." ”
The beggars returned the salute with their fists together. Elder Chuangong said: "The prehistoric gang leader of our gang unfortunately returned to heaven, and all the elders decided to establish the daughter of the gang leader, Miss Shi Hongshishi, as the gang leader, and this one is the new gang leader of our gang. He pointed to Shi Hongshi.
Kong Zhi and Qunxiong were all stunned, thinking that there has always been a saying on the rivers and lakes: "Mingjiao, beggar gang, Shaolin faction", each sect is headed by Mingjiao, the world gang pushes the beggar gang as the respect, and the martial arts sect is the first Shaolin faction. Mingjiao set up a young man in his twenties Zhang Wuji as the leader, which is already amazing, but the beggar gang even pushed such a little girl as the leader, if it wasn't from the mouth of the beggar gang elder, no one would believe it.
At that time, Huang Rong was the leader of the beggar gang with a girl, although there was a precedent, but at that time, Huang Rong was several years older than the little girl in front of her.
Although Kong Zhi was surprised, he was not short of courtesy, and said: "Kong Zhi under the Shaolin Sect, see Shi Gang Master." Shi Hongshi returned the blessing and returned the gift, but he couldn't answer the answer.
Elder Chuangong said: "The leader of our gang is young, and all the help is temporarily represented by the two brothers and the law enforcement elder. The empty wisdom monk is a great virtue of his predecessors, and he doesn't dare to be polite. The two of them said a few words modestly. The monk led the group of beggars into the wooden shed and took their seats.
The beggars were numerous, and they began to sit down in a long time. Zhang Wuji saw that everyone in the group of beggars was wearing filial piety, and there was a look of grief and indignation on their faces, and there were even more things wriggling and moving in the cloth bags on the backs of some disciples, obviously they had something to do, and they were secretly happy in their hearts, and just said to Yang Xiao: "We have a group of good helpers." I saw the second elder of Gong Chuan Gong and Law Enforcement leading Shi Hongshi to the front of the Mingjiao shed.
Elder Chuangong clasped his fists and saluted, and said: "Sect Leader Zhang, the Golden Retriever Lion King has fallen, and our gang has a lot to do with it, we would rather die today than atone for our sins; The beggars are up and down, listening to Sect Leader Zhang's orders. Zhang Wuji hurriedly returned the salute and said, "Don't dare." Elder Chuangong's words were full of vigor and spoke very loudly, obviously intending to let everyone in the square hear.
After he finished saying a few words, all the disciples of the beggar gang stood up together and said loudly: "I would like to follow the order of Sect Master Zhang of the Ming Sect to go to the soup and fight the fire, and I will not give up." ”
The heroes are all in the same line: "When did the beggar gang form a dead friend with Mingjiao?" In addition to the seclusion that rarely walks in the rivers and lakes, everyone knows that the beggar gang and the Mingjiao have attacked and killed each other for many years, and the beggar gang participated in the siege of Guangming Ding before the year, a bloody battle, both sides were killed and wounded, and finally the beggar gang who attacked the Guangming Peak was almost wiped out. At this moment, the Elder Chuangong openly claimed that the whole gang was under Zhang Wuji's order, and said that he wanted to avenge the prehistoric gang leader, and no one was at a loss.
Elder Chuangong turned around and said loudly: "My beggar gang and the Shaolin faction have always had no grudges or hatreds, and our gang has always respected the Shaolin faction as the first major sect in martial arts. Since the prehistoric gang leader of the fire dragon in history, the good students admire the high morality of the four great monks of Shaolin, and they are enough to be exemplary models for martial artists. The prehistoric gang leader has been in seclusion for a long time, living quietly to recuperate, and has not returned to the people in the rivers and lakes for decades, but for some reason, he was poisoned by Shaolin monks......" He said this, and everyone in the square exclaimed "ah" in unison, and even Kongzhi was unexpected.
I only heard Elder Chuangong continue: "We are here today to ask the abbot for guidance before we are the heroes of the world. What did our prehistoric gang leader do to offend the Shaolin faction, so that after the Shaolin monk killed the prehistoric gang leader, he had to kill all the widows and orphans, and even Mrs. Shi couldn't save her life?"
Kong Zhi Heten said: "Amitabha, the Shi Gang Master unfortunately passed away, and the old man only heard the message for the first time at this moment. The elder kept saying that it was the disciple of our sect, but he was afraid that there would be a big misunderstanding, and asked the elder to explain the details of the time. ”
Elder Chuangong said: "The Shaolin faction has been the Taishan Beidou in the martial arts for thousands of years, how dare we slander it? ”
Kong Zhi said: "The elder commands, you should obey the order. I don't know which two elders want to come out?"
Elder Chuangong said: "Yes......"
