Chapter IX: The Struggle for the Flag
A few days later, Nanling Peak, early in the morning.
Su Jing flew up a little earlier than in the past, because the senior brother Fang Cheng had already instructed the night before, today is a major day for the Taixu Gate to reset the defense, called the point guard style, and the four peaks are all going to send disciples to the middle dragon peak to receive the order.
Therefore, Su Jingfei didn't dare to delay, and came to wait in front of the temple early, but he waited in front of the Taoist temple for a long time, and then waited for the two senior brothers who were late.
I saw Zhou Yi following behind Fang Cheng in broken steps, with a flattering face full of flattery, if it was usual, this would be an unimaginable scene, and if he didn't fight, he would already thank God for thanking the ancestor.
Su Jingfei was also full of questions, and couldn't help muttering: "Could it be that the second senior brother rolled out of bed and broke his head when he was sleeping last night?"
When the two of them got closer, Su Jingfei heard what Zhou Yi was saying clearly, and his jaw plummeted.
"Senior brother, you are loyal and benevolent, and you usually care about us so much, so let me be the chief disciple of Nanling Peak today, okay to climb the high platform?"
Looking at Zhou Yi's shameless pleading, Su Jingfei also shook his head with a wry smile, and couldn't help but slander, it seems that the second senior brother really broke his brain last night, can the chief disciple give in like this?
And Fang Cheng let Zhou Yi entangle, and just snorted: "It's just nonsense!" and ignored it, and walked unhurriedly towards the shrine in the view.
Seeing that the two senior brothers had arrived, Su Jingfei also leaned over and saluted.
"Senior brother early. ”
"Early. Fang Cheng smiled and nodded in response.
"Second senior brother early. ”
"Early... Eh, big brother, listen to me..." Zhou Yi dealt with Su Jingfei perfunctorily, and then pestered Fang Cheng again.
At this time, I don't know that people have also come to the Taoist temple, and their expressions are solemn, seeing the master come out, Su Jingfei can't help but slander again, when did the master get up so early? And so serious.
"Shizun is early. The three disciples saluted in unison.
I don't know the person nodded and said, "Are you ready?"
"Yes. Fang Cheng replied.
"Okay, please flag!" I don't know if the person is solemn, take the three pillars of incense, solemnly salute the shrine, and after three knocks, put it into the incense burner.
Zhou Yi stepped forward respectfully, took down the flag, and then cautiously retreated.
When everything was done, I didn't know that the person yawned and said, "The flag must be watched, uh..." Then I'm going to sleep again..." After saying that, he left.
Zhou Yi took the flagpole, put up the flag, handed it to Su Jingfei, and said, "Little junior brother, it's going to be raised." ”
Under the morning light, the flag is tattooed with the two characters Nanling, and the momentum is extraordinary!
Fang Cheng walked out and said loudly: "Upper Middle Dragon Peak!"
On the way, Zhou Yi was still chattering about the matter of the chief disciple, Fang Cheng ignored it, and Su Jingfei suddenly asked, "Senior brother, does this flag have any special significance?
Fang Cheng chuckled and said: "This flag, there are four sides, respectively, looking at the north and south spirit, Cangdong and Mangxi, it is made by the ancestor Sun Fengyang when he opened the mountain and established the faction, representing the four peaks, as the so-called, the flag is raised, and the four peaks are to! Taixu Gate can get the prestige of the world's first immortal gate, naturally it depends on the unity of the four peaks, so the significance of the symbol of the four flags is heavy, not to be lightly spoken, not to be blasphemed! Therefore, the master is so cautious and personally asks for the flag." ”
"Oh, I see. After listening to Fang Cheng's words, Su Jingfei couldn't help but raise the flag in his hand more steadily.
Zhonglong Peak.
At this time, the hour was still early, and the point-guarding ceremony had not yet begun, Su Jingfei and the three of them had just stepped into Taixu Square, and it happened that Mu Xueyin also led the disciples of Zhonglong Peak out of the main hall.
Seeing Mu Xueyin, Zhou Yi suddenly became quiet, and his eyes were full of infatuation and sorrow.
"Little junior sister... It's so beautiful..." Zhou Yi watched Mu Xueyin walk down the hall with resentment, and only woke up when he stood still in front of the high platform of Zhonglong Peak, but he actually changed his previous tone of flattering Fang Cheng, and said angrily: "Fang Cheng! I have said all the good things all the way, why can't you let me be the chief disciple once! You and I worship the mountain gate at the same time, and our cultivation is no different, why do you always occupy the position of chief disciple!"
Looking at Zhou Yi's eager appearance with a red face and a thick neck, Fang Cheng asked meaningfully: "Stinky boy, I see that you are competing for the chief disciple, I'm afraid it's just to be able to stand on the high platform with the little junior sister, right?"
"Uh..." Being told so directly by Fang Cheng, Zhou Yi suddenly showed embarrassment, but he still said forcefully: "What!"
After Fang Cheng showed a strange expression, the thief smiled: "No, just don't let it, hehe..."
In fact, Zhou Yi's love for Mu Xueyin Fang Cheng has always known, but no matter how much he thinks about things that are inseparable, it is a fantasy, after all, it is too slim, he doesn't want to see Zhou Yi infatuated, and in the end it is all sad, I just hope that he can wake up sooner.
Thinking like this, Fang Cheng turned around and prepared to continue walking forward, but at this moment, the other Three Peaks disciples suddenly surrounded them, blocking their way, all with unkind faces.
Not far away, Nangong Heng stood with his hands in his hands, looking at Su Jingfei, his eyes were full of disdain, yesterday you dared to bump into me in front of the little junior sister, today I will pay you back a hundred times, on this Taixu Square, I want you Nanling Peak to look good!
Let you Su Jingfei know clearly, this is the distance between you and me, like a world apart, I, Nangong Heng, how can you be provoked casually by such a waste!
On the other side, Mu Xueyin saw that all this was happening, obviously premeditated, and suddenly said in disgust: "Despicable!"
At this time, Fang Cheng forced himself to calm down and said to Zhou Yi and Su Jingfei: "Don't pay attention to them, so as not to cause extraneous branches, as soon as the point guard is over, we will leave." ”
But they tried to get around, but they were still stopped.
"You can't even defend Nanling Peak, and you still have the face to defend it! Get out of here!"
"Nanling Peak is no longer worthy of being as famous as our three peaks, so how embarrassed is it to continue to stand here with us!"
"Nanling Peak has long existed in name only, so you don't deserve to come here!"
In the past, it was common for Fang Cheng and Zhou Yi to be bullied like this by other Sanfeng disciples, but Nan Lingfeng had been weak for a long time, so he had to bow his head, just begging to get by, and he didn't dare to say more!
Although Wangbeifeng's behavior is certainly despicable, there are a lot of such senseless entanglements between the four peaks, Mu Xueyin has long been accustomed to it, and she has always only turned a blind eye and had no intention of asking, besides, the disciples of Nanling Peak have been bullied by the disciples of the other three peaks not once or twice, but they have always swallowed their anger, but they have made Mu Xueyin mourn her misfortune and be angry with her, even if she can meddle once or twice, what if she can do it again? Poor people must have something to hate, and the only one who can change Nan Lingfeng's status in the Taixu Gate is themselves, but they are too cowardly, and they are so cowardly that others can't help!
Just when the disciples of the Three Peaks were extremely cynical, and Fang Cheng and Zhou Yi were helpless, Su Jing suddenly jumped out and retorted angrily: "Why do you look down on our Nanling Peak!"
As soon as these words came out, Mu Xueyin was shocked, this Su Jingfei really surprised her, in the face of Nangong Heng's always such strong injustice, Su Jingfei was so stubborn, wasn't he afraid of Nangong Heng at all?
Even Li Muyang, the chief of Cangdong Peak, who had always been interested in looking at him coldly, was also smacked when he heard this, and said with a joking smile: "Hehe... It seems that Senior Brother Nangong is right, this stinky boy from Nanlingfeng is really a little stubborn. ”
But as soon as Li Muyang finished speaking, he found that Nangong Heng was no longer beside him, but had already walked towards Su Jingfei and them.
As for the disciples of Wangbei Peak, who were accustomed to seeing Nanling Peak go against the grain, they were also shocked for a while in the face of Su Jingfei's sudden questioning, and they didn't know how to respond to Su Jingfei's questioning.
But at this moment, a voice suddenly came, quite shocking, and said in a deep voice: "Just by... Look at the north peak in three words!"
As soon as these words came out, the disciples of Wangbeifeng hurriedly got out of the way, with a look of awe on their faces, Nangong Heng walked with his hands in his hands, his expression proud, showing his domineering momentum!
Nangong Heng did not hide his contempt and contempt at all and said: "Hmph! With the qualifications of the three of you, you don't even have the qualifications to worship the Taixu Gate, at this moment, what qualifications do you have to participate in the point guard ceremony under the banner of Nanling Peak!"
Su Jingfei didn't care what Nangong Heng said, he only knew that after he worshiped Nanling Peak, his senior brother and master treated him like a relative, Nanling Peak was not only a place for him to learn from his teacher, but also a home-like place, and his home after his amnesia!
Therefore, no matter what the circumstances, he will defend it without hesitation!
The four peaks are behind the disciples of Wangbei Peak, although it looks ordinary, but it is carrying a heavy weight and extraordinary significance, when the Taixu faction was established, the first seat of the four peaks was on these four high platforms to take over the position of the first seat of the four peaks, and then, all the major ceremonies of the Taixu Gate, these four high platforms have a decisive weight, and these four high platforms are still the important place of the flag, as Fang Cheng said, the flag is raised, and the four peaks are to!
Su Jingfei immediately felt his heart down, and said in the same deep voice: "Today I will fight for Nanling Peak, and let you see if we are qualified!"
As he spoke, the flag in his hand waved horizontally, sweeping towards the people in front of him, and he couldn't catch off guard, and the disciples of Wangbeifeng dodged one after another!
Su Jingfei's appearance, even Fang Cheng and Zhou Yi were unexpected, and they couldn't help but be stunned, while Su Jingfei took advantage of the chaos to raise the flag and go straight to the platform!
"Stop!"
After the disciples of Wangbeifeng came to their senses, they turned around and chased after Su Jingfei!
"Why are you still stunned, hurry up and help the little junior brother!" Seeing the current situation, even Fang Cheng, who has always been calm, said to Zhou Yi urgently.
Of course, Zhou Yi was also in a hurry, but there were many people in Wangbeifeng, how could he help the little junior brother? In a hurry, Zhou Yi actually jumped out and pounced on the nearest disciple of Wangbeifeng, and then both fell to the ground and scuffled together!
“···········” Fang Cheng was speechless for a while, and while stomping his feet, he also chased Su Jing away.
Suddenly, a voice cut through the ice and snow broke through the air: "Stop!"
At this time, she stopped between the disciples of Wangbeifeng and Su Jingfei, and said with a grim face: "When the flag is raised, in order to show respect, you must not disturb it, otherwise you will not respect the teacher, at least you will think about it on the wall and be imprisoned for a lifetime, and at worst, you will be expelled from the teacher and never recalled!"
As soon as the rules and etiquette came out, an invisible power was like a substance, so that everyone did not dare to make another half a step!
At this time, looking at Su Jingfei standing on the high platform, Nangong Heng's face was already pale, even if it was Mu Xueyin, he couldn't care much more, and asked directly: "Little junior sister, I don't want to go to the flag of the North Peak, why is he on the flag of the South Spirit Peak!"
It turns out that this flag ceremony has been passed on to future generations, and there is an unwritten rule, among the four peaks, who has the most disciples and the best cultivation is the most powerful, so no matter how big or small the ceremony, who will be the first to go to the flag!
Therefore, even if Cangdong Peak and Mangxi looked at the North Peak first, they did not go to the flag first, which is the reason.
But Mu Xueyin responded coldly: "The four peaks have no dignity and humility, and no one has ever said that they are on the flag first. ”
Hearing Mu Xueyin say this, Su Jingfei still hesitated, turned around, and in front of Nangong Heng and everyone, he stood the flag of Nanling Peak on the high platform, and in the strong wind, there was a solemn and long-lasting weight!
