Chen Ran was planning the blueprint for the future of the Guiyi faction, when suddenly a Su Buqing walked into the wooden house and said softly: "Master Qiqi, there is someone at the door who asks to see you." ”

He suddenly said a little strangely: "Who?" ”

Why did someone come to see me as soon as I went up the mountain? Could it be that someone has been paying attention to Yuyang Mountain?

Su Buqing shook his head and said, "He claims to be the Taoist leader of the Wangwu Sect, he is of medium age, and his speech is quite arrogant. ”

"Oh."

Chen Ran's heart suddenly dawned. The Wangwu faction controls the royal dojo, which can barely be regarded as a sect supported by the royal family, and it should be the largest sect in this area. It is normal for the disciples to have some tempers.

Why did they come to their own Yuyang Mountain for a big faction? It can't be for a new neighbor, right?

Chen Ran thought silently, feeling that nine times out of ten, it was not a good thing.

Sometimes, there is no difference between humans and animals, and in the face of any opponent who breaks into their own turf, they have to show their claws to declare their home and strength.

Chen Ran was in the early days of his business, and he didn't plan to have a conflict with such an official neighbor.

He stood up and said to Su Buqing: "Go, go out and meet him." ”

With that, the two men walked out of the house one after the other and came to the intersection that led to the bottom of the mountain.

A tall and thin middle-aged Taoist stood at the intersection, and a Sikong Ping's subordinate was accompanying him. There is also a donkey beside the Taoist who acts as a leg force.

I saw that Taoist man, with a goatee, standing with both hands on his chest and a sword, looking at the scenery under the mountain beside the mountain road, with a look of looking at the entire Yuyang Mountain.

He sensed someone coming, turned his head, and saw the two men walking towards him. One is a disabled person with an iron prosthetic, while the other is a young man. Suddenly, his brows furrowed, and he said dissatisfiedly: "What about your head?" Why can't you pay it back? ”

His tone was hard and uncomfortable to sound.

If Sikong Ping was present, he would probably be angry because of this Taoist's tone. And Su Buqing's face was not shocked, and there was no anger.

Su Buqing is a Confucian, easy to get angry, and always polite. He only frowned slightly, then his face returned to calm, and he said loudly: "This is our Chen master." Who is Your Excellency? ”

The Dao man's face suddenly showed a look of astonishment, and then an irrepressible smile appeared on his face, pointing at Chen Ran and saying, "You are the head of the Guiyi faction?" Could it be that your sect is a doll faction? Find a hairy boy like you to be the head. ”

Facing the rudeness of the Taoist, Chen Ran smiled slightly, and arched his hand: "The establishment of the sect made the Taoist master smile. Dare to ask the long name? ”

The Taoist casually arched his hand as a return salute, and then said proudly: "Guangmingzi of the Poor Dao Wangwu Sect, on the order of the head of my faction, please ask the head of Chen to come to my Wangwu Mountain to talk about it." ”

When Chen Ran heard this, he was stunned for a moment, listening to the tone of this thing, as if the order of the Wangwu faction was like a holy decree.

Guang Mingzi saw that Chen Ran didn't answer, and said impatiently: "Master Chen, why hesitate, since the head of my family has an order, please do it." ”

Su Buqing took a step forward and said coldly: "Isn't the Dao Chief a little Meng Lang, the head of your sect can order the head of the Dao Chief, but he may not be able to order the head of the sect." ”

When Guangmingzi heard this, his face changed, and he was about to say more. But he saw that Chen Ran gently patted Su Buqing's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Lao Su doesn't have to mind, everyone will be neighbors in the future, and it doesn't matter if you go with this Guangming Zidao Chief." ”

Before he came, he had already explored the details of the Wangwu faction, and it was almost just a medium-sized sect on the border of Jinyu and Yu, and there was a royal dojo that kept the incense burning. Compared to the Frost Moon Sect, it is not the same day at all.

Annihilation of the Frost Moon taught Chen Ran a large part of his confidence. Coupled with his poisonous skills and light skills, Chen Ran was confident that this Wangwu faction would not pose any threat to him at all.

And the point is that he has a system, and his favorite thing to do is to meet the head of a faction. As long as you see it, you can use the mastery of other schools for your own use, so why not?

When Guang Mingzi saw Chen Ran say this, he thought he was scared in his heart, and immediately smiled: "Although Master Chen is young, he also knows current affairs, and he can indeed be a leader, let's go, let's go?" ”

As he spoke, Guangming jumped on the back of the donkey and walked first. Chen Ran and Su Buqing also brought two donkeys to follow.

Donkeys are the most commonly used means of transportation in this world. After all, compared to horses, donkeys are easier to raise and more practical.

In addition, the donkey is more durable when walking on the mountain road, so the people on the mountain always have donkeys.

Wangwu Mountain is not far west of Yuyang Mountain, and three people can each ride a donkey and can walk there quickly.

Along the way, Guangmingzi's attitude softened a little, and said to Chen Ran: "Master Chen, you have been edicted to meet the head of my family, which shows your sincerity." It's just that there is still one thing that is not done properly. ”

"What's wrong?" Chen Ran was puzzled.

Guangming Zi said: "Where's your gift?" ”

"Gifts?" Chen Ran was even more puzzled.

Guangming Zi pursed his lips and said in a sincere and instructive tone: "Our Wangwu faction is in charge of the imperial court dojo, and it is an official sect certified by the imperial court, which is very different from a small sect like you.

Our head Chong Ming Dao is a senior member of the fourth rank of the DPRK, what kind of identity is that? Even the elders of Laojun Mountain have to be polite to the head of my family when they come to my mountain gate. And you, a country boy, came to visit the head of my family, and didn't even bring a gift, do you think it's like words? ”

Chen Ran suddenly smiled a little dumbly, and said softly: "I'm sorry, I came too hastily, I really forgot." ”

"Forgotten? You, a young man, think that the rivers and lakes are a game of playing house? How can you be negligent? If you go up the mountain empty-handed like this, you will be unlucky when the head of my family is angry. Guangmingzi threatened.

Chen Ran smiled slightly, too lazy to pay attention to him.

But seeing that Guangmingzi was getting more and more energetic, he beckoned the donkey to approach Chen Ran, and said softly: "In this way, you give me fifty taels of silver, and I will prepare a gift for you, how about it?" ”

After saying this, he added: "Let's say it first, I see that you are also interesting and have the heart to help you." If I were the head of another sect, I would never care about this kind of thing. ”

Chen Ran shook his head slightly, and said, "Thank you Dao Chang for your wrong love, but I don't have fifty taels of silver on my body, so I have no choice but to see it empty-handed." ”

"There are no fifty taels, and twenty taels is so-so." Hiroakiko continued.

Chen Ran found out that this person was actually a clown, and he could even reduce the price by asking for bribes. So he slapped the donkey's buttocks, hurried forward, and simply ignored him.

Guangmingzi was unwilling, and asked Su Buqing again: "Do you have silver taels on you?" Anyway, save the head of your family. ”

Su Buqing also stepped forward and ignored him.

Guangmingzi's face suddenly became gloomy, and he spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm on the side of the road, and said, "Damn, after all, it's a country school, and I really don't know how to lift it." ”

He couldn't ask for bribes, so he didn't waste any words along the way, and the three of them walked silently all the way to Wangwu Mountain, and they had their own guide to lead Chen Ran and the two people up the mountain.

Chen Ran walked towards the mountain, and on the way, he saw the surrounding red rocks stacked in layers, magnificent and strange. In the distance, the mountains are majestic and the forests are luxuriant. It is indeed much more beautiful than Yuyang Mountain.

And along the way, there are many Taoist temples, and from time to time there are believers who go up the mountain to worship, so it is not lively.

Further up, you will arrive at the main peak, Tiantan Mountain, which has been sealed by the people of the Wangwu faction, and believers and tourists are no longer allowed to wander around at will.

The reason why Tiantan Mountain is called this name is because there is a royal dojo Temple of Heaven on the peak, which is said to have been built by Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, the ancestor of the Chinese nation, when he set up an altar to worship the sky. Now it is surrounded by a high wall, and it is usually closed, and even people from the royal house faction cannot enter at will, and it can only be opened by the emperor of this dynasty in person.

The area of the top of the hill is large, and the surrounding ancient buildings are magnificent. I saw that from the Jade Emperor Pavilion to the Balcony Palace, there were dozens of pairs of stone carved pillars, which were carved with the tumbling cloud dragon, the hundred birds in the morning wind, and the magpie in the plum. There are even Su Wu who shepherds, the Eight Immortals who crossed the sea, the Yellow Emperor who fought the Yellow Emperor, etc., all of which are lifelike and ready to come out.

Seeing these scenes, Chen Ran was a little shocked in his heart, the ancestors of the Wangwu faction were really magnanimous, and the overall building was not weaker than the momentum of Shaolin Temple.

He couldn't help but have a new evaluation of this royal house faction. Just imagine, the buildings in the sect are so magnificent, will the strength be poor?

The two of them admired as they walked, passing through the Dragon Official Palace, the Yugong Statue and the Hall of Eternal Life in turn, and finally came to the balcony palace.

The person who ushered in the Tao asked Chen Ran and Su Buqing to wait outside the balcony palace, and he went in to report.

At the same time, in the Balcony Palace, the elder of the Wangwu faction, Chong Sudao, was sitting under a seven-leaf Bodhi tree and was talking to a guest dressed in brocade.

This seven-leaf Bodhi tree is very huge, with a diameter of one zhang and a height of five zhang, according to legend, it was planted by the masters of the Tang Dynasty, and the life is vigorous, and it has been continuous until now.

For the sake of this ancient tree, the Balcony Palace has built a square patio, and when entertaining distinguished guests on weekdays, the seats are often set under the tree.

The person who ushered in the Dao walked up to Daoist Chongsu and said softly: "Elder Qiqi, the new head of Yuyang Mountain has arrived, is it to let him go to the side room to wait for the decree?" ”

The brocade-clothed guest suddenly said a little strangely: "Yuyang Mountain? Isn't that a barren mountain? What's the matter, a new sect has come? ”

Daoist Chong Su nodded slightly, twisted his beard and said with a smile: "There is a sect called the Guiyi faction, I heard that the Flying Fish Gang at the Yellow River ferry was established as a faction." They don't make a living by the Yellow River now, but they have taken Yuyang Mountain down. ”

When the brocade-clothed guest heard this, his expression immediately became a little solemn, and he confirmed again: "Elder, you said that the predecessor of this sect was the Flying Fish Gang?" ”

"Exactly, what's the matter, does Lord Lu have any holiday with this Flying Fish Gang? If there is, my Wangwu faction can help the adults deal with it casually, and it is not a difficult task. Chong Su said lightly.

Lord Lu shook his head slightly, and asked in a deep voice, "Does the Dao Chief know about the Longquan Villa Cultivation Case?" ”

"Of course." Daoist Chong Su nodded and said: "This case is a big case that shocked the government and the opposition, I heard that it has caused a stir in Luoyang, and many friends in the rivers and lakes and officialdom are deeply involved. ”

"Exactly." Lord Lu smiled bitterly: "Fortunately, my Lu family has a strong foundation and has always been blessed by my uncle." Although Shi Lingtian was ruthless, he didn't dare to touch my Lu family. However, after this case, the Frost Moon Sect also fell, and my Lu family suffered heavy losses. I couldn't swallow this breath anyway. In fact, not only can we swallow it, but the famous families involved in the case in Luoyang City can't swallow this breath, and they are preparing to deal with Shi Lingtian to the end. ”

Daoist Chong Su didn't know why Lord Lu suddenly mentioned the case of raising a scab, which was originally a private matter. He suddenly felt a pang in his heart and asked, "Could it be that this Flying Fish Gang has something to do with the case of raising scabs?" ”

Lord Lu nodded and said, "Daoist Chong Su is really agile, that's right!" This Flying Fish Gang has always been used by the Frost Moon Sect, but who knew that after the case, it was a miracle that Sikong Ping, the leader of this little Flying Fish Gang, was able to get out of the matter. Originally, Lu thought that they were just fish that slipped through the net due to Shi Lingtian's negligence for a while, but today, it seems that they have changed their gang to faction, and it seems that there is another master behind them. ”

Daoist Chong Su smiled slightly and said, "Since Lord Lu is interested in this faction, why don't you let Lao Dao send someone to investigate." It just so happened that their head was invited here by us, and it was convenient to go to Yuyang Mountain to investigate at this time. ”

"So, thank you very much." Lord Lu immediately thanked him.

At that moment, Daoist Chong Su whispered to a Dao boy beside him: "You pass my decree to Daoist Chong Ling, let him go out of the mountain, go to Yuyang Mountain to investigate, and see what is wrong." ”

"Yes." The boy bowed and took the order.

After Daoist Chong Su gave the order, his face returned to an indifferent expression, and he picked up the wine glass and said, "We'll see in a while." Lord Lu, please. ”

"Dao Chief, please." Na Lu also raised his glass.

......

Outside the balcony palace, Chen Ran and Su Buqing waited for a long time, but they never saw the guide come out.

Su Buqing frowned slightly, and said softly to Chen Ran: "Master, I think this Wangwu faction is very rude, why don't we go back." ”

Chen Ran was sitting in the pavilion and using the system to probe those old Taoist priests who seemed to have more status passing by, and when he heard Su Buqing's words, he shook his head slightly and said, "Old Su, don't worry about it first. We are here to see the reality of this royal house faction, so why bother with their rudeness? ”

When Su Buqing heard this, a look of admiration appeared on his face, thinking that with such an age and such skills as the head of the family, he was always angry and angry in the face of other people's rudeness, and he was really deep-minded.

He didn't know that Chen Ran was planning to extract the skills of the head of the Wang Wu Sect, so how could he leave easily?

After Chen Ran used a few points of energy to probe at this time, he already had an understanding of the martial arts of the Wangwu faction in his heart.

Their martial arts are mainly based on swordsmanship, supplemented by light skills. Judging from the energy points consumed in extracting their martial arts, although the level of martial arts is stronger than the Chen family's sword technique, it is far inferior to the seventy-two stunts of Shaolin Temple.

To sum up, there is something in this royal house faction, but not much.

There is no advanced Gongfa town sect, and it is blind to such a good place.

The two of them waited patiently for a while, only to see that the usher finally came out and walked to the two of them. He didn't apologize for making the two of them wait for a long time, but said coldly: "Elder Chong Su has an order, please go to the side room for tea." ”

To be called an elder seems to be a big man. I don't know if he has any skills to draw. ’

Thinking of this, Chen Ran was a little curious, and followed the Taoist priest into the side room of the Balcony Palace.

Upon entering, the house was empty. The two of them waited for a while, only to see an old Taoist priest with white hair, a clear face, and a graceful bearing walking in slowly.

Chen Ran did not hesitate, and immediately said secretly in his heart: "Retrieve the target information." ”

[Target: Chief Elder of the Wangwu Sect Chong Su Dao Chief]

[It costs 3 energy to retrieve the target information, and the available energy is 133, is it called?] 】

'Yes. Chen Ran silently instructed in his heart.

[Successfully retrieve target information, skills can be extracted:]

【Lingdu Sword Technique: Fifth Weight (180 Energy)】

【Upper Footwork: Fourth Weight (100 Energy)】

【Nine Heavens Xuannu Swordsmanship: Second Heavy (60 Energy)】

【Wangwu Sect Divine Pill: Third (100 Energy)】

【Mountains and Seas Sutra Heterogeneous Cultivation Technique: Fourth Layer (120 Energy)】

When Chen Ran saw the first two skills of this old Taoist priest, he was stunned at first, and then there was a burst of ecstasy in his heart.

These two skills seem to be related to heaven and earth. One is alchemy, and the other is cultivation. If you learn this, wouldn't you really be able to cultivate a batch of natural treasures by yourself?

After that, your own energy points can be continuously supplied by yourself!

Thinking of this, Chen Ran suddenly thought, could it be that this Wangwu Mountain actually has different plants planted with the Classic of Mountains and Seas?

......

When the old Taoist priest entered, a man in brocade clothes flashed by outside the door, glanced into the room, and then walked away quickly.

"It turned out to be Su Buqing, why didn't Sikong Ping come, and who was the young man next to him...... 'Lord Lu returned to the Bodhi tree with a cold expression on his face.
