40 Pointing the rivers and lakes is a war of tongues
Xian Jingyue's words came out, and at the moment, regardless of the dissuasion of everyone present, he floated away. Xie Yixiang was stunned on the spot, and wanted to go to Dongshan to help out, but he knew that his little ability was no longer the same as that of his current senior brother, but he was afraid that not only would he not be able to help, but he might also become a burden to him. Just as he was hesitating, he went to Jingyue as soon as possible, and disappeared in a blink of an eye. Xie Yixiang was helpless, and finally had to go up to the high platform where the Xuanwu Feihua Gate was located in the north, and sat on the position of the previous Xian Jingyue, paying attention to the situation in the venue while looking forward to the triumphant return of the senior brother.
As for the Hanxiang monk from Dongying, seeing that the purpose of the battle had been achieved, he did not leave, nor did he accompany the Shenhuo Sect and his party in the field, but went to the pergola where the exotic martial arts were located in the west alone, and found a place to close his eyes and meditate next to everyone in Penglai Heavenly Palace, obviously to stay here and wait for the result of the battle between Xianjingyue and the Sword Saint of the Dongying Ghost Sect. Seeing him take such a move, coupled with the fact that Xian Jingyue had already gone to meet the enemy on behalf of the Central Plains Martial Arts, it was not easy to embarrass him for a while, and gradually turned their eyes back to the Divine Fire Sect people led by Gongsun Mo Ming in the field.
Then Ye Dinggong on the high platform took a deep breath, and his luck suppressed everyone's discussions, and said in a deep voice: "Since the matter of the Dongying Sword Saint coming to challenge has been explained, please forgive Ye for bringing up the old matter again - today is the Central Plains Martial Arts held a martial arts conference in the Misty Peak of Taihu Lake, if the friends of the Western Regions Divine Fire Sect just come to watch the ceremony, it will undoubtedly be full of glory, please take a seat in the west." But if the Gongsun Sect Leader wants to get involved in the position of the leader of the Central Plains Martial Arts Alliance, or has the heart to come and make trouble, hmph, even if the Gongsun Sect Leader's divine skills are world-famous, my Central Plains Martial Arts can also fight to the death, it's a big deal that the blood is splashed on the Ethereal Peak, and the jade is burned!"
The group of Divine Fire Sect members in the field were unmoved, and they were still surrounded by the messengers of the eight directions holding torches, surrounded by Gongsun Mo Ming, Ning Cui and the two Venerables of the Open Fire Luomu. I saw that he was holding a dry tobacco stick repaired by Xian Jingyue in one hand, took out the tobacco in the other, and put it into the smoke pot in a good time, and then looked for the torches in the hands of the messengers from all over the world to light it, swallowing the smoke and laughing: "Lord Ye's words are wrong. Although the Shenhuo Sect originated in Persia in the Western Regions, it has been operating in the Central Plains, and when it led the various gangs and factions present to rebel against the alien races of the previous dynasty, how could they have separated each other? Moreover, the head of my family is the son of the former leader of the Xiang Army, the 'Nine Dragon King', not only the authentic Han people of the Central Plains, but also the royal blood of the surname 'Zhao' of the two Song Dynasty. According to Lord Ye's lofty remarks, Buddhism also originated in Tianzhu, could it be that the Wutai Mountain Dafu Linghu Temple, Jiuhua Mountain Huacheng Temple, Luoyang White Horse Temple, Kaifeng Daxiangguo Temple, Suzhou Hanshan Temple, Jiazhou Lingyun Temple and Hangzhou Lingyin Temple are all Tianzhu friends who came to watch the ceremony?"
Ye Dinggong was speechless for a moment, but the abbot of the Kaifeng Daxiangguo Temple in the pergola in the east couldn't listen to it, and said angrily: "The Divine Fire Sect is only a cult in the Western Regions, and it is also worthy of being compared with my orthodox Buddhism?" Yan Sidao let out a puff of smoke, shook his head and smiled: "What is good and evil? Doing good is good, and doing evil is evil." When the previous dynasty was tyrannical and tyrannical, you Daxiangguo Temple tended to be inflammatory, and assisted the officers and soldiers in slaughtering the five Han people, isn't it evil? And our Shenhuo Sect led the people to revolt and save the people of the Central Plains from fire and water, isn't it doing good? From this point of view, Buddhism really does not deserve to be compared with our Shenhuo Sect!"
Hearing this, the various factions of the Shi family present could still hold it, and they rose up to attack it one after another, or quoted scriptures, or whispered righteousness, or scolded loudly, but they were not rejected by those who came with one person and one tongue, and they were speechless. In the end, the abbot of the Dafu Linghu Temple came forward to stop the various factions and said in a loud voice: "Amitabha, let me say that the old man should say a fair word! My Buddhism has lasted for thousands of years, and now it has been deeply rooted in the Central Plains, how can it be shaken by a few words from others, so why argue with it? The identity of a traitor is not suitable for today's affairs. As for the rights and wrongs of the grievances between the Divine Fire Sect and the imperial court, it is beyond the scope of our Jianghu sects to discuss, so I still ask the Gongsun Sect Leader to respect himself, why bother messing around here?"
Hearing the words of the abbot of Shanyin, everyone present felt that it made a lot of sense, and they all nodded yes. Unexpectedly, Yan Sidao raised his eyebrows, stroked his palms and smiled: "The old monk said this very well! I would like to ask all the leaders of the sect who are present, this 'Taihu Lake Martial Arts' convened by the imperial court today, is it to let the Central Plains Martial Arts elect a martial arts alliance leader who commands the heroes, or to merge the various factions in the rivers and lakes into the jurisdiction of the imperial court and be unified by the Xuanwu Feihuamen? Haha, I think you already know it, but you dare to be angry and dare not speak, yes or no?" As he spoke, his voice suddenly rose and he said loudly: " I don't deceive you, my Divine Fire Sect is here today, in addition to taking the position of the leader of the martial arts alliance, but also on behalf of the righteous army of the King of Heng in the south, 'Qing Jun's side and punishing traitors', I sincerely invite the heroes of the rivers and lakes to join forces with our sect to do something, and once again burn the world and mountains!"
Although everyone present knew that the Shenhuo Sect had a disobedient heart, they were only talking behind their backs, but they didn't know that the other party, the Liujin Venerable, actually made it clear in public at this time, and also called on the major gangs to rebel together, which was undoubtedly a great rebellion! No matter how Ye Dinggong was afraid of Gongsun Mo Ming in the field, he couldn't help but say angrily for a while: "You...... You're so bold!" A group of gangs that were friendly with the imperial court also scolded one after another, accusing the Shenhuo Sect of being disrespectful.
Unexpectedly, Yan Sidao had already prepared, and immediately ignored everyone's accusations, and asked in a loud voice to the pergola where the "Gang" was located in the west: "Feng Gang Leader of the Salt Gang, has business still been prosperous in recent years?" Feng Haijing, the leader of the Salt Gang, suddenly sneered: "Since the imperial court has single-handedly controlled the salt and iron business, how can the brothers in the gang still have any private salt business? I'm afraid that in another year and a half, my so-called Salt Gang will be removed from the rivers and lakes!"
Yan Sidao pretended to say "ouch" and asked: "Where did Gang Leader Feng start with this? You must know that in order to overthrow the rule of the foreign races of the previous dynasty, more than ten Han rebel armies rose up in Jiangnan one after another, if it were not for the Feng Gang Leader leading the entire Salt Gang to support him behind his back and secretly provide salt and money and grain, how could we Han people be the masters of the house today? There is a way that the draft does not forget to dig wells, and now that the emperor is already sitting on the world, even if he wants to return the salt and iron business to the imperial court, he should leave food for the brothers of the Salt Gang. The Feng gang leader suddenly scolded: "Leave his ancestors a fart! The current emperor is notoriously mean and unkind, crossing the river and demolishing bridges, who doesn't know and who doesn't know? If he still remembers the small credit of my salt gang, then the sun has come out in the west!"
Hearing that the two of them were in the same gear, everyone present suddenly realized, no wonder the Salt Gang wanted to go down to support the beggar gang to make trouble, it turned out that it was not only because the two gangs had always been friendly, but also because the Feng gang leader of the Salt Gang had already hooked up with the Shenhuo Sect, so it was natural to find ways to oppose the court and confuse today's "Taihu Lake Martial Arts". I only heard Yan Sidao laugh, and then turned his head and asked: "If you want to talk about the current emperor's meanness and unkindness and crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, Li Weide, the new leader of the Jianghai Gang, must have a deep understanding, yes or no?"
You must know that the Jianghai Gang was a big gang in the martial arts in the early years, and its momentum was not inferior to the Beggars Gang and the Salt Gang, and it was even claimed that where there was water, there was the Jianghai Gang's wave-chasing flag. However, with the arrest of Li Lao's gang leader Fang Zhuang Haoming was booby-trapped by the order of the imperial court, and his son Li Weiyao died in the battle of Huguang under Xie Yixiang's knife, although Li Weiyao's cousin Li Weide took over as the gang leader, but the disciples in the gang have died over the years, scattered and scattered, and descended, and the power has been eaten away by the imperial court, and there is almost only an empty shell left. At this time, when he heard Yan Sidao's question, the new Li Gang Leader immediately shouted loudly and said sharply: "There is a deep hatred in the sea of blood, and we don't share the sky! I only hate me Li Weide has no ability, so I can only let people eat meat! If the Divine Fire Sect is willing to stand up for me and help me avenge my hatred, the Jianghai Gang will follow me to the death!"
When everyone present heard this, it seemed that the Divine Fire Sect only had more than a dozen people present today, but in fact, they had come prepared, and it was clear that they had secretly formed an alliance with many gangs. Sure enough, with the laughter and scolding of Yan Sidao, more than a dozen gang leaders opened their mouths to express their intention to advance and retreat together with the Shenhuo Sect, among which there were Taoist celebrities such as Taishan Bixia Temple and Confucian decency such as Tianyi Pavilion, and Ye Dinggong and the gangs that were good friends with the imperial court were dumbfounded.
After Yan Sidao's round of chatting, the Feng Gang leader of the Salt Gang came forward and concluded: "Fang Caishan said very well because of the Zhuzhu, the grievances between the Divine Fire Sect and the imperial court are right or wrong, and it is beyond our Jianghu sects to discuss. And today's matter is that we, the reckless people in the rivers and lakes, want to elect a martial arts alliance leader with both ability and political integrity for ourselves, which has nothing to do with the imperial court, and of course we should act in accordance with the rules of the rivers and lakes. In this regard, everyone has already set a rule - no matter who it is, as long as they can get more than ten gang nominations, they can compete for the position of the leader of the martial arts alliance - and I, Feng someone, as one of the ten notaries who won the martial arts competition today, will elect the Gongsun sect leader of the Shenhuo Sect to serve as the leader of the martial arts alliance on behalf of the salt gang at this moment, I don't know which other faction is willing to recommend the Gongsun sect leader?"
As soon as the words fell, more than a dozen leaders of the head of the gang who had been greeted by Yan Sidao echoed one after another, and a rough count showed that there were as many as sixteen, which naturally met the conditions for today's competition for the alliance leader. Seeing this, some people in the rivers and lakes who were not afraid of the excitement also followed suit, and said: "The Sect Master of the Shenhuo Sect is the second-ranked master on the 'Jianghu Celebrity List,' and his strength is even more obvious to all! Now that the Gongsun Sect Leader has already arrived, if he is not allowed to compete for the position of the leader of the alliance, then what kind of martial arts conference is it? If so, this 'Taihu Lake Martial Arts' will not be opened!"
Ye Dinggong on the high platform has already been as big as a fight, and things have developed to such a situation, it seems that today's "Taihu Lake Martial Arts" can't get around the big problem of Gongsun Mo Ming after all. Fortunately, in addition to the first Jingyue who can fight with Gongsun Mo Ming, Xuanwu Feihuamen also has other preparations today, and with the help of many gangs present, the situation is still under control. However, no matter what, Xian Jingyue went to Dongshan Island alone to face the Dongying Sword Saint, but it was an unexpected change, and I don't know if he can really rush back "half an hour later". Thinking of this, Ye Dinggong couldn't help but look at Xie Yixiang, who had just arrived at the Ethereal Summit Venue beside him, to see what Miss Xie San, who was known as "Jingyue Yixiang" with Xian Jingyue, had high opinions.
Who knew that Xie Yixiang was also anxious at this time, seeing that her senior brother was leaving, the battle with the Dongying Sword Saint was unpredictable, and the Shenhuo Sect had won the support of many sects under the clever words of Yan Sidao, and none of the tens of thousands of people in the entire Ethereal Summit could refute it, so she had to pin all her hopes on De Yizi beside her. However, Deyizi only closed his eyes and slept the whole time, ignoring the things in the field, Xie Yixiang was in a hurry, so he had to stretch out his hand to shake him awake, and said: "Little Dao Chief, Yan Sidao This guy is really hateful, I don't know what conspiracy and tricks are hidden in secret, if you go on like this, I am afraid that the position of the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance will really fall into the hands of the Shenhuo Sect! Since you have decided to fight him to the end, and you are the only one who can cure him here, can you let this dog thief get what he wants?"
But he saw that Yizi was sleepy-eyed, and his face was full of anger when he was woken up, and he said angrily: "What kind of bullshit alliance leader, but a group of ignorant children playing with the family, which is useless in the overall situation, and has nothing to do with me! Although I am inseparable from the dog thief, do I have to fight for everything and everything because of this? The dog thief is bent on eating shit, should I also compete with him?"
He said this very loudly, and he heard that the people of the Xuanwu Feihuamen on the high platform were not laughing or angry, and their expressions were extremely embarrassed. Ye Dinggong coughed dryly a few times, and suddenly felt something, and immediately smiled at the Confucian pergola in the east: "According to today's rules, at this moment, it was originally to decide the final victory between the Emei Sword Sect and my Xuanwu Feihua Sect, and the winner was the leader of the alliance, but who knew that it was suddenly interrupted by the Gongsun Sect Master." Now that our first and deputy heads have gone to Dongshan to face the Dongying Sword Saint on behalf of the entire Central Plains Martial Arts, the Xuanwu Feihuamen has no choice but to take a break and wait for the return of the first and deputy heads. However, as one of the final candidates for the leader of the martial arts alliance, Zhu Zhangmen has no idea what he thinks about the fact that the Shenhuo Sect is also competing for the leader of the martial arts alliance?"
His words undoubtedly threw the problem to the Emei Sword Sect, planning to have a sandpiper and clam to compete and the fisherman to profit. Feng Ruofu, the deputy head of the Emei Sword Sect, suddenly said: "Nonsense! There are no rules, there is no circle, everyone has already made a rule, and if you want to decide a martial arts alliance leader among the eight selected factions, how can the Divine Fire Sect intervene sideways...... Who knew that he was just halfway through the words, and was stopped by the head Zhu Ruoyu raising his hand.
I saw Zhu Ruoyu pull out the Dinghai Sword again, which was known as the "No. 1 Divine Soldier in Martial Arts", took two steps into the field again, and said in a deep voice to the Divine Fire Sect and his party in the middle: "I have heard for a long time that the Divine Fire Sect in the Western Regions respects the sect master, but who knows that when I see it today, it is the Liujin Venerable in the 'Five Elements Protector' who is in charge, but it is unexpectedly tight." Could it be that Mo Ming, the terrifying leader of the Divine Fire Sect on the rivers and lakes and the second ranked on the 'Jianghu Celebrity List', turned out to be a deaf and dumb fool?"
