Chapter Twenty-Five: Disappointed

As soon as Chu Tiangui and the others sat down and the drum music was played, they saw a middle-aged man in a big red brocade robe, leading a group of distinguished guests out. The group of guests all walked steadily, showing that their cultivation was not low, and Li Rufeng was among them, and finally four old men in blue, vermilion, cyan, and yellow robes came out, all with their temples raised high.

The middle-aged man in the big red brocade robe arranged a group of distinguished guests to sit at the main table, and the other four old men in blue, vermilion, green and yellow robes sat next to a few tables at the main table and sat in the host seat, warmly beckoning the guests to take their seats.

"The middle-aged man in the big red robe is Luo Yuntian, the leader of the Righteous Dao Alliance and the head of the Taihe Sect, and the old men in the blue, zhu, qing, and yellow robes are the four elders of the Taihe Sect. Chu Tiangui whispered to Chu Wenjing and Fu Qingyun: "The rest of the people at the main table must be distinguished guests from the Kongtong faction, the Emei faction, and the Taishan faction. ”

Fu Qingyun looked at Luo Yuntian with admiration, and saw that he had thin eyes and a horse face, sharp eyes, and a long nose, which had a terrifying majesty. He was dressed in a green belt and red robe, with dark gold sleeves on his arms, and his hair was tied up high in a hosta.

Luo Yuntian got up, stretched out his hand and pressed it gently, and the drum music stopped. Luo Yuntian bowed his hand and bowed, and said loudly: "Today, Luo Mou's birthday, all martial arts colleagues, guests and friends have come from afar with hard work, so that Taihe Men feels honored, Luo is deeply grateful!"

Luo Yuntian bowed his hand again and continued: "Everyone is gathered here today, and I would like to take this opportunity to put forward three proposals. ”

"The first initiative: At present, the government is sluggish, the four seas are boiling, and the rebellious people take the opportunity to form a party to poison their neighbors, and the people are displaced and mourn all over the country. Although I am outside the temple, I must not sit idly by. I propose that the large and small sects of the Central Plains and the gentry should make a strong contribution and have the money to jointly form a 'Hongyi Group' to support the people and maintain the peace of the party. ”

"Great kindness, good deeds! This move of the Lord of the Luo League is really immeasurable. Many people in the temple agreed.

Chu Mingshan was taking Chu Wenyu to help the disciples of Taihemen pass the dishes, treating himself as a handyman, when he happened to walk not far in front of Luo Yuntian with a plate of elbows, and nodded and sighed when he heard this: "Although the Lord of the Luo League is in the rivers and lakes, he cares about the people of Li, but it is really the road of chivalry." ”

Luo Yuntian nodded and smiled at him, Chu Mingshan's body shook, and he felt that Luo Yuntian's smile was like honey, flowing into his heart with sweet, indescribable happiness.

Fu Qingyun secretly slandered himself, but he heard the flying rat next to him snort: "To put it soundingly, this is the rhythm of borrowing other people's money and food to strengthen the prestige of Taihe Gate." ”

Rolling Dragon said: "We are a small sect, and we are already sending people under the fence, so why do we care so much." ”

The Flying Mouse said: "We think so, it's helpless, you look at the Huashan Sect, Xuantian Gate, Yueyang Gate these sects." ”

When Fu Qingyun heard this, he looked at the second table where Wu Sheng, the head of the Huashan faction, and the others were, and saw that everyone was pale and did not say a word. If what the two of them said was true, then Luo Yuntian's move would have a deep meaning.

Luo Yuntian looked around and said slowly: "This second initiative: Everyone knows that the rivers and lakes are demons, good and evil are opposed, and the martial arts are not peaceful. After Cui Fa, the leader of the Golden Crow Sect, was named a talisman, the cult aliens were ready to move, and I received news that the two demon envoys of the Demon Sect had entered Middle-earth, and I was afraid that another bloody storm would be set off. Now in the eventful autumn of martial arts, I propose that all the major sects in the east, west, south, north and middle should work together to fight against evil and protect the peace of martial arts. ”

"Okay!" The distinguished guests of the Kongtong faction, the Emei faction, and the Taishan faction at the main table said in unison: "The righteous path of martial arts is a family, and we should help each other, and we must not let the demon sit big." ”

"It's all!" the Flying Rat whispered to the Rolling Dragon.

The rolling dragon smiled, noncommittal.

Luo Yuntian arched his hand at Li Rufeng and said, "This third initiative is said to Brother Li of the Hengshan faction. You and I are two factions, each living in the north and south of the river, guarding the 100,000 mountains and demons in the southwest, and the geographical location is very critical. If they can form an alliance, the north and south of Chu will be connected, and they will definitely deter the demons and evil spirits and set an example for fellow martial artists. ”

Chu Tiangui looked at Li Rufeng worriedly when he heard this, not knowing how Li Rufeng would respond. Luo Yuntian's second initiative just now was obviously empty talk, but he didn't expect him to suddenly change his words, talking about the alliance between Taihemen and the Hengshan faction, and he wanted to provoke Li Rufeng into the alliance in front of his fellow martial artists.

Li Rufeng smiled faintly, but he was not squeezed by him, and said: "Today is the birthday of the leader of the Luo League, and the matter of forming an alliance is a big matter, so let's discuss it later." ”

Luo Yuntian's face was slightly cold, and he said, "It's okay, then I'll discuss it in detail later." ”

Luo Yuntian sat down with a cold face, and the drum music resumed.

Luo Zihong walked out and said loudly: "The auspicious time has arrived, and my father's birthday ceremony has officially begun!"

Then there was a period of cumbersome etiquette and thanks, and when the banquet was over, it was almost time.

In the meantime, Zhong Zhengxiong came over to pass the word for his master, and asked Chu Tiangui and a few people to stay on the mountain for a night, and his master would personally take Fu Qingyun to meet Luo Yuntian tomorrow.

Chu Tiangui was overjoyed, and with Li Rufeng from Hengshan faction, things would be much easier.

After resting in Taihe Mountain for one night, at noon on the second day, Hengshan sent his disciple Zhong Zhengxiong to find Chu Tiangui, saying that his master was talking to Luo Yuntian, so he took them to meet Luo Yuntian.

Chu Tiangui and Fu Qingyun followed Zhong Zhengxiong to a simple and elegant three-story attic.

Luo Zihong, who was waiting in front of the attic, went in to report and took Zhong Zhengxiong and the three of them inside.

As he was walking, he heard Li Rufeng's voice in the hall saying: "Lord Luo League, the matter of forming an alliance violates the teachings of the ancestors of the Hengshan faction, please forgive Li for not daring to obey." ”

Luo Yuntian laughed and said: "Master Li, now the imperial court regards the martial arts sect as the source of the chaos and tries its best to suppress it; Now it is a combination that is strong, and a division is weak, and I hope that Master Li will consider it carefully. ”

Fu Qingyun and a few people stepped into the living room, Luo Yuntian turned his head to look, and saw the gray-haired Chu Tiangui bowing down and walking quickly with Luo Zihong, followed by Zhong Zhengxiong, and finally a boy in Tsing Yi came in, with steady steps and a calm expression.

Luo Yuntian saw that Fu Qingyun did not change his color when he entered the back of the hall, he was calm, and said with a slight stunned: "Come and let me take a look!"

"Xie Luo Alliance Master!" Chu Tiangui and Fu Qingyun bowed at the same time.

Fu Qingyun slowly approached Luo Yuntian, and an invisible sense of coercion came, but Fu Qingyun still straightened his spine, walked in front of Luo Yuntian without hurry, and saluted respectfully again.

"Come and sit down!" Luo Yuntian pointed to the chair next to him.

Fu Qingyun sat down as he said, Luo Yuntian put his hand on his Taiyuan acupoint, and carefully probed through a trace of internal force, while Chu Tiangui and Zhong Zhengxiong stood respectfully aside.

Luo Yuntian probed for a long time, and his face gradually became a little ugly. Luo Yuntian let go of Fu Qingyun's hand and asked in a gloomy voice: "Master Li, you know the poison that this little brother has in advance, right?"

Li Rufeng said: "I know! When I met Brother Chu yesterday, Brother Chu told me about the situation. ”

"Then do you know that this poison has invaded the lungs, and if it is to be eradicated, how much will it cost?" Luo Yuntian asked compassionately.

Fu Qingyun was shocked in his heart, Luo Yuntian asked, that is, there was something to say.

Li Rufeng nodded and said, "Presumably the price is not small." ”

"Hmph!" Luo Yuntian slapped the coffee table and stood up, and snorted coldly: "Not only is the price not small, it is to abolish the old man's half-body cultivation!"

Hearing this, Luo Zihong glared at Li Rufeng angrily, and said angrily: "Uncle Li, dare to ask you what you mean by this?"

Fu Qingyun and the others were taken aback, although people in the martial arts regarded cultivation as more important than their lives, but Luo Yuntian's father and son were so villainous that everyone was stunned.

Li Rufeng got up abruptly and said, "Lord Luo, please forgive the old man for being shallow, not knowing the severity, and offending!"

"Let's go!" Li Rufeng said to Chu Tiangui again.

Fu Qingyun smiled bitterly, still calmly got up and said, "Disturb the Luo Alliance Master." ”

Chu Tiangui also gave up his hand, and took Fu Qingyun to follow Li Rufeng's master and apprentice and left abruptly.
