Three years later.

Hongshi Gorge of Yuntai Mountain.

Mu Dongfeng followed Qingyun Dao Chang through the canyon.

The waterfall and rain are quite spectacular. Outside the sky, the sky is high and the clouds are light.

Three steps and a spring, five steps and a waterfall, ten steps and a pool, the sound of water murmuring.

Mu Dongfeng followed behind Qingyun Dao Elder and asked, "Master, why didn't Senior Brother join us?"

Daoist Qingyun did not respond.

Mu Dongfeng continued to ask, "Master, did you say that Godfather will come to join us after receiving our letter?"

"Master, why is the Central Plains Martial Arts Conference being held in Zhuyu Peak?"

"Master, if I want to participate in the Central Plains Martial Arts Competition, how many places can I get?"

"Master..."

Qingyun Daoist stopped, looked back at Mu Dongfeng, and said, "Feng'er, I'm hungry for the teacher, let's rest for a while and eat something." ”

"Okay!" Mu Dongfeng chose a flat stone, wiped it with his sleeve, and said, "Master, you sit here." I'm going to fetch some water. ”

At this time, a group of people caught up from behind.

More than a dozen people, more than a dozen knives, all dressed in short suits, surrounded by a brocade-clothed boy in the middle, with fast steps, seemed to be in a hurry.

Mu Dongfeng dodged out of the way, carrying a water bladder to fetch water.

At the moment when he saw Qingyun Dao Chief, the boy in brocade suddenly drank and said, "Wait!"

Everyone immediately stopped, and their movements were in unison.

The young man in brocade looked at the Qingyun Dao Chief, and arched his hand: "This is the Qingyun Dao Chief, one of the three elders of the Jianghu Martial Arts in the Central Plains?"

"Poor road. Your Excellency?" the Qingyun Dao chief stood up and saluted.

The boy in brocade clothes is dancing in a long robe, with long eyebrows and sword eyes, a jade tree in the wind, people love him, and he sees flowers blooming, just like a jade boy with a bright moon.

Mu Xingfeng shouted like a nymphomaniac: "What a handsome son!"

The brocade-clothed boy smiled at Mu Dongfeng, turned his face to look at Qingyun Dao Chief, and said, "In the lower Jinling Nangong Liuyun?"

Qingyun Dao Elder sighed and said, "Jinling Nangong Family?"

"My father, Nangong Yan. "The young man is as gentle as jade, and even his words are full of clear streams.

Mu Dongfeng was shocked in his heart, there were nine sons in the Jinling Nangong family, all of whom were unparalleled in the world, and Nangong Liuyun was the eldest, who liked to fight unevenly, and was nicknamed Little Bodhisattva.

But Nangong Liuyun's martial arts inheritance is not Nangong lineage, but Shaolin faction, he is the lay disciple of today's Shaolin abbot intelligent master, Liuyun Feisleeve alone in the rivers and lakes, chivalrous fame.

Nangong Liuyun took a step forward and arched his hand: "I have heard the name of Dao for a long time, and I met today, and I am fortunate to have three lives!"

Qingyun Daoist also saluted: "Nangong Gongzi is polite, Ling Zun has always had a relationship with Poor Dao, but I haven't seen him for many years, I don't know how it is going?"

Nangong Liuyun heard that the Taoist chief asked about his father, and his face was gloomy: "Don't hide it from the Taoist chief, my father passed away three months ago. ”

Qingyun Dao Elder was taken aback and asked, "Ling Zun has always been in good health, why did he die suddenly?"

Nangong Liuyun said angrily: "It's a long story. Four months ago, Shen Wanshan, the Marquis of Xiangyang, visited the Jinling Broken Sword Pavilion and discussed the sword with his father. During this period, nothing was found to be wrong, but half a month later, my father died suddenly. We waited to visit around and learned that Shen Wanshan would hold the Central Plains Martial Arts Conference tomorrow in Zhuyu Peak, so..."

"Shen Wanshan?" Qingyun Daoist was stunned for a moment, and said, "But in recent years, the third ancestor of the rivers and lakes of the imperial court, Xiangyang Marquis Shen Wanshan?"

"That's right, it's this person. Nangong Liuyun gritted his teeth and said: "Before my father died, he was poisoned, but it was too late to be rescued. My father said at the time that Shen Wanshan's arrival in Jinling was not just as simple as the Broken Sword Pavilion discussing swords, but there was another hidden story. ”

"What's the secret?"

"Shen Wanshan asked his father to go north to Yuzhou and take refuge in the imperial court, but his father did not obey, and the old thief Shen must have secretly poisoned him, and he was poisoned for half a month, causing his father to die. ”

Mu Xingfeng said angrily: "Damn! Shen Lao Thief is really damned. ”

Nangong Liuyun looked at Mu Dongfeng and asked, "Who is this?"

Mu Dongfeng hurriedly said: "I am the apprentice of the Taoist Master, my name is Mu Dongfeng." ”

Nangong Liuyun arched his hand and said: "Thank you Brother Mu for speaking outright, but it's a pity that these are just our guesses, and there is no conclusive evidence." ”

After a pause, Nangong Liuyun said again: "Dao Chief, the juniors still have important things to do, so take the first step." The mountains are high and the waters are long, and there will be a period later!"

Qingyun Daoist nodded and said, "Nangong Gongzi be careful all the way! Since Shen Wanshan has already ascended to Zhuyu Peak, he will have his own public opinion at that time. ”

Nangong Liuyun bowed his head and said: "The Nangong family has suffered this catastrophe, and we should swear to avenge this." If you meet Shen Lao Thief tomorrow, I hope that the Taoist will uphold justice. ”

Mu Dongfeng pinched his waist and said loudly: "Don't worry, Nangong Gongzi, Master and I will definitely stand on your side." ”

Nangong Liuyun bowed his hand again and said, "Thank you for this, say goodbye first!"

The group hurried by.

Qingyun Dao Chang got up and said, "Feng'er, we won't rest anymore, hurry up." If it is really like what Nangong Liuyun said, this martial arts conference must be dangerous and abnormal. Let's go to Zifang Lake to meet your senior brother first, and then go up the mountain together to act on the opportunity. ”

"Yes, Master. ”

When the master and apprentice arrived at the Zifang Lake, it was getting late.

There are a number of inns near Zifang Lake, and the three of Mu Dongfeng and his apprentices live in a Yuelai Inn.

Yuntang had already arranged the room, two upper rooms.

After eating, the three of them came to the room.

Mu Dongfeng told Yun Tang about the encounter with Nangong Liuyun on the road, and Yun Tang was even more surprised. He looked at Qingyun Daoist and said, "Master, it's strange to say, I have traveled all the way and found that the people who came to participate in the Central Plains Martial Arts Conference this time are very complicated. ”

"Who are they?" asked Daoist Qingyun.

"Shaolin, Wudang needless to say, Qingcheng, Kongtong, Huashan, Emei have disciples into the mountain, even the beggar gang, Tangmen, Tiejianmen, Qise Villa, Bafang Fengyulou, Tianyi Pavilion have all played signboards, and Yichen Dao Chang has also arrived. ”

Qingyun Daoist smiled and said, "It's very lively!"

"Not really. Master, not only that, but the disciple found that it had already started to be lively three days ago. The people of the government, Jun Youyi, the chief catcher of the six gates, and Huo Laiyun, the commander of the left military guard of Kaifeng City, have all taken people up the mountain. ”

"Such a big formation!" Mu Dongfeng said dumbfounded.

"What's more bizarre isn't here. Yun Tang smiled and said: "The people and horses of the underworld in the rivers and lakes are also moved. The desert one-eyed, the nine-tailed sword monster, the Jiangnan Seven Evils, and your old acquaintance, the lone thief Tan Wanli, are among them. ”

"It seems that this year's Central Plains Martial Arts Conference is extraordinary, Yuntang, have all the letters sent to you for the teacher been delivered?"

"It's delivered, Master. The disciples had done everything before they went up the mountain. Yun Tang said with a smile.

"Well, hopefully these two old guys will catch up with this good show. Daoist Qingyun shook the dust in his hand and said, "It's still early, you guys go out for a walk." In addition, Feng'er can go to find your godfather, and if nothing else, they should also arrive. ”

"Yes, Master. Mu Dongfeng looked excited, and pulled Senior Brother Yuntang out of the room.
