Zhong Limu's appearance made the atmosphere on the martial arts field suddenly delicate, and the originally peaceful scene became a little weird. Most of the people here wanted to wait for Mo Cen to wash his hands before asking about the stormy rain map, so that it could be regarded as giving Mo Cen and Jiangnan Lufu three points of thin noodles, but no one expected that they would kill Zhong Limu halfway, so ignorant of current affairs.

Zhong Limu turned over and got off the donkey awkwardly, shook the wine gourd in his hand with a smile, and jumped lightly at will, his figure turned into a series of "staggering" afterimages in the martial arts field, and when he spoke again, he was already sitting on the empty chair of the head of the Kongtong faction.

"Senior Brother Mo is a disciple of my Kongtong faction, if he washes his hands now, then it will be difficult for the old man to speak, so it is better to explain some things clearly first, so as not to be unclear in the future. Hehe......" Zhong Limu looked harmless to humans and animals, and said with a smile, "I believe that Senior Brother Mo and Lu Gongzi shouldn't blame the old man for being troublesome, right?"

"Senior brother in charge arrived, Mo Cen did not greet him from afar, and hoped to forgive his sins......" As soon as Mo Cen saw Zhong Limu, his originally confident and indifferent expression suddenly became a little nervous, he hurriedly bowed to Zhong Limu, and at the same time inadvertently turned his head to look at Lu Tingxiang with a begging gaze, as if he was asking Lu Tingxiang to help him out of the siege.

Lu Tingxiang thought about it for a while, and said with a smile: "What did the head of Zhongli say? Only Mrs. Zhuang and Miss Zhongli came to the mansion this morning, and I thought that there was no blessing to visit the head of Zhongli, but now it seems that I am thinking too much." Hehe......" After the greetings, Lu Tingxiang glanced at Mo Cen who was full of embarrassment on the field, coughed lightly, and said, "It's just that Senior Mo's golden basin washed his hands in the morning, and when he picked a good day, why don't the head of Zhongli first make a verification for Senior Mo with me and others, and after Senior Mo washes his hands, I will invite the head of Zhongli and Senior Mo to sit in the back hall, and you can say anything slowly." ”

"Before washing his hands in the golden basin, Mo Cen was a disciple of Kongtong, but as soon as he washed his hands, he was not counted as my disciple of Kongtong. Zhong Limu looked at Lu Tingxiang with a smile, and said in a strange tone, "Now that the old man wants to borrow the precious land to talk to Senior Brother Mo about the family affairs of the Kongtong faction, presumably Lu Gongzi should not stop him, right?"

When Zhong Limu said this, the smile on Lu Tingxiang's face couldn't help but stiffen slightly, and then the corners of his mouth twitched twice, and he said with a dry smile: "Of course not, since this is the case, then the head of Zhongli is talking about the old days with Senior Mo." "Lu Tingxiang is a person with an excellent face, and now that Zhong Limu has moved out the word "family affairs" to pressure him, if he says more, he will be suspected of meddling in the family affairs of the Kongtong faction, which is a big taboo in the rivers and lakes, how can Lu Tingxiang be rude in front of so many people?

"Thank you. Zhong Limu casually arched his hand towards Lu Tingxiang, and then his eyes fell on Mo Cen, who was laughing quite embarrassed, and said, "Senior Brother Mo should know what I want to say, right?"

"Please make it clear. Mo Cen pretended to be confused and said with a dry smile, "I haven't been back to Kongtong for more than 20 years, and it's rare that the senior brother in charge still remembers me as a disciple of Kongtong." Mozen had something to say, implying that Zhongli was a little too wide from the woodwind.

"The first article of the Kongtong precept is that if you are a disciple of Kongtong for one day, you will be a disciple of Kongtong for life, unless you make a big mistake and are expelled from the master by the master. Without waiting for Zhong Limu to speak, Mrs. Zhuang, who was sitting on the side, said in a cold tone, "Senior Brother Mo's martial arts are all from Kongtong, how can Senior Brother in charge forget you?"

Mo Cen knew that Mrs. Zhuang's temper had always been straightforward, and if she dared to speak with implicit sarcasm, she was afraid that Mrs. Zhuang would not leave any affection for herself. No matter how poor Mo Cen is, he is also a senior, how can he argue with a woman in public?

Mo Cen smiled and nodded hurriedly, "What Senior Sister Zhuang said is true." Then he looked sideways at Zhong Limu and said with a smile, "Please forgive Mo Cen for being stupid, I really don't know what else I have to explain to my master, so please show me the senior brother in charge." ”

"What about the stormy rain map?" Zhong Limu was unceremonious, and hit the nail on the head when he opened his mouth. And his question also made everyone present feel refreshed, and one after another eyes full of strange eyes turned to Mo Cen.

Mo Zen's face was like stagnant water, and he secretly said in his heart: "Sure enough, what should have come is still here." He turned his head to glance at Lu Tingxiang again, and then smiled lightly at Zhong Limu: "The Storm and Rain Diagram was brought back from the Bianjing Palace by Mo Cen with his life, I don't know what this diagram has to do with Kongtong?"

As soon as Mo Cen said this, the atmosphere on the field sank again, although the tone was quite soft, but the meaning of-for-tat contained in it had begun to take shape.

"Senior Brother Mo should remember that you went to the Bianjing Palace because you were ordered by your master, how can you say that it has nothing to do with the Kongtong faction now?" Zhong Limu said with a smile, "Senior Brother Mo should know what it means to be ordered by the master, at that time you were not representing yourself, but the entire Kongtong faction......"

"Zhongli is not the head of the house!"

Before Zhong Limu's words fell, Teng Cang, the elder of the Xiangxi Teng clan who was sitting opposite, slowly shook his head and said: "Twenty-five years ago, it was not only your Kongtong faction that sent people to the Bianjing Palace to assassinate Yan Shouxu, but also Shaolin, Wudang, Hexi Qin clan and many other sects. Therefore, it is more appropriate to say that Brother Mo represents your Kongtong faction rather than that the thirteen of them represent my entire Central Plains martial arts. ”

"That's right, speaking of which, my Qin clan should also get a share of this shocking wind and rain map. Qin Da opened his mouth and agreed.

"Amitabha, what Teng Shi and Qin Shi said is inappropriate. Master Shaolin Yuankong interjected, "The righteous people who went there back then were for the people of Li in the Great Song Dynasty, and after assassinating Yan Shouxu, it was to drive away evil and welcome good, how could they have other evil intentions? The purpose of the storm and rain was not the purpose of their trip to Bianjing, this was just an accident of Lord Mo, how could Lord Qin say that there was such a thing as your Hexi Qin clan? Not to mention that some of the sects that participated in this matter back then no longer exist, but how could they erase their merits because of this?"

"Old monk, you said it so beautifully, could it be that you are not interested in the storm and rain map?" Teng Qin'er of the Xiangxi Teng clan couldn't help but feel dissatisfied when he saw Yuankong refuting Teng Cang, so he said sarcastically, "It is said that you monks don't talk nonsense, you dare to swear to the sky that the purpose of your Shaolin coming here is only to celebrate your birthday, and nothing else......?"

"Girl, don't be rude to Master Yuankong. Teng Cang was still somewhat measured, so he stopped Teng Qin'er's taunt in time, "The Golden Basin Handwashing Conference is a solemn thing in the martial arts, how can you allow this girl to be here with a hippie smile and talk nonsense?"

Teng Qin'er stuck out her tongue at Yuankong and Zhonglimu on the opposite side with unwilling eyes, but she didn't dare to speak again.

Jin Jianwu Song Yu saw that the two sides were hostile to each other, and couldn't help but say faintly: "If I heard it right just now, what Master Yuankong meant was that this picture of the stormy rain was accidentally obtained by Senior Mo, so this picture can neither be owned by the Central Plains Martial Arts, nor by the Kongtong Sect, but should belong to Senior Mo himself." Master Yuankong, I wonder if it is inappropriate for Song to explain it like this?"

"This ......" was seized by Song Yu to bite the words between the loopholes, and Yuan Kong was suddenly speechless.

"The attribution of the Storm and Rain Diagram was already settled more than 20 years ago, when Lu Chongyang, the head of the Lu family, was still alive, and all sects and factions had recognized it at that time, so there is no need for us to argue today. Zuo Hongxuan, the head of Qingcheng, said coldly, "Brother Mo, Lu Gongzi, what Lu Chongyang said back then should still be counted today, right?"

Lu Tingxiang nodded and said: "My father is full of words, what he said is not today, even after a hundred years and a thousand years, he still counts." ”

"That's good!" Zuo Hongxuan said, "Since that's the case, then this picture should belong to all the sects that sent people to participate in the assassination of Yan Shouxu back then, and my Qingcheng faction also sent people, according to Qin Da's words, should this picture also have a copy of my Qingcheng faction?"

"There is only one picture, but there is more than one sect that sent people to participate in this matter back then. Lu Tingxiang said with a smile, "You can't tear this picture apart, right?" According to Lu's words, since this picture was obtained by Mo seniors, it should always belong to him, even if he retires to the rivers and lakes, he can also leave this picture as an heirloom for future generations, and there is nothing wrong with it." "Lu Tingxiang's righteous Ling Ran seems to be as if the Jiangnan Lu Mansion has no greed for the stormy rain map, but in fact, it has another evil intention.

"Lu Gongzi's move is afraid that it will harm Master Mo. Master Miao'an, the head of Emei, shook his head and retorted, "Everyone in the world knows that there is a peerless martial art hidden in the Storm and Rain Map, and since Master Mo has retired to the rivers and lakes, why should he use it to make any heirlooms?

Tang Yan of the Tangmen in Shuzhong answered: "What Master Miao'an said is good, this picture will indeed be in vain if it continues to remain in the hands of Senior Mo. Therefore, it is better to take advantage of the opportunity of the world's heroes to gather together today, why don't you give this picture to one person openly. In this way, the picture was willingly given by Mo's predecessors, and it was reasonable for the recipient to receive it. Second, it is also necessary to avoid the heroes of the world fighting for a mere picture, which hurts the harmony. Third, we can avoid the fact that Senior Mo will provoke right and wrong in the future because of this plan, and truly enjoy the blessings of family life in peace. I don't know what you think? By the way, in order to show the neutrality of my Tang Sect, even if Senior Mo gives this picture to the Tang Sect, we will never accept it. ”

"That's a good idea!" Qin Da nodded and agreed, "Whoever has the final say in the picture, he can give it to whoever he wants, saving trouble." ”

After that, Qin Da and Tang Cheng exchanged a look, and then the two of them nodded lightly towards Mo Cen in unison. Look at it like this, they had already colluded long before the Golden Basin Handwashing Conference.

"But I don't know what Luo Fu thinks?" Lu Tingxiang did not express his position, but turned his inquiring gaze to Luo Tianjin.

Luo Tianjin smiled slightly, and said: "What happened back then Luo Mou was not a climate, so he didn't participate, how can he be qualified to comment here today?" Luo Tianjin, like Lu Tingxiang, first pretended to be an outsider, who seemed to have no quarrel with the world, and said with a light smile, "However, Luo Mou has some friendship with the head of the Kongtong faction Zhongli, and what the head of Zhongli just said is also reasonable, Luo is more willing to listen to the meaning of the head of Zhongli, and try to come up with a best of both worlds, so as not to hurt everyone's harmony." Hehe...... "Luo Tianjin's words are soft on the outside and the inside, and the meaning is obviously on the side of the Kongtong faction.

Liu Xunyi looked at the various sects and factions where you said a word, and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart: "These people have been in collusion with each other for a long time, and there is no one here who doesn't want this picture, but they all deliberately pretend to be confused, everyone wants it, but no one wants to be the first to tear their faces, so as not to become the target of everyone." Really one is more cunning than the other. I'd like to see how calmly they find a home for this picture. ”

Song Yu couldn't help but chuckle when he heard Luo Tianjin's words, and turned to Mo Cen and said: "Senior Mo, today is your sixtieth birthday, and it is also the day when you retire to the rivers and lakes. ”

"I ......"

In fact, Shen also has a proposal. ”

Without waiting for Mo Cen to open his mouth in a dilemma, Shen Dongshan suddenly laughed and said: "Since this picture is owned by Mr. Mo, it is necessary to make it of the greatest value, so that Mr. Mo can be worthy of the nine deaths of twenty-five years ago." Isn't it?"

"I would like to hear Master Shen's high opinion. "Mo Cen is a big two at the moment, and since he has chosen to retire, he doesn't want to offend any of the forces at this juncture, so no matter who speaks now, he has to listen patiently.

Shen Dongshan smiled and nodded: "I see that Mr. Mo's son-in-law is still young, and Mr. Mo is already sixty years old, so he must not have any interest and energy to farm and do business, so Mr. Mo has to think more about the future life of Mr. Ling and Mrs. Ling." After Mr. Mo washed his hands, he could no longer have any contact with people in the rivers and lakes, including the Jiangnan Lufu. Yes and no?"

Shen Dongshan's meaning is very straightforward, that is, what will your family live on after today? What will your wife and children live on after you die of old age? It's just a little more subtle, but Mo Cen still understands it.

"What does Master Shen mean ......"

"Since Mr. Mo has a treasure in his hand, why don't you fight for more benefits for your wife and children in the future?" Shen Dongshan said with a smile, "Please forgive Shen for only knowing how to make profits, what I mean is that Mr. Mo why don't you take out this picture and let me wait for fair competition, the highest bidder wins, firstly, everyone will bid fairly according to their abilities, and secondly, it will also be of great benefit to the future life of Mr. Mo's family, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"

......
