Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Legend of the Five Mountains
As the saying goes, the rivers and lakes are ruthless, only because of chivalry, and the rivers and lakes are so unpredictable, so interesting, and so worthy of everyone to go into them and achieve heroic deeds.
Whether this hero is a hero, a hero or a bear, in short, if he can rise to the top, it will be in vain.
On the rivers and lakes, there is a newest sect, saying that the new is not new, and the old is not old. said that it is new because it appeared on the rivers and lakes;
It is said that it is old because it also has a history of 100 years, and what is it, and listen to the author in detail.
This sect is the "Wuyue School", and the Wuyue School is a new merger of the Songshan School, the Hengshan School, the Huashan School, the Taishan School and the Hengshan School.
More than 20 years ago, since the Candle Dragon Sect sprung up, trying to annex the various factions in the rivers and lakes, especially the relatively independent Wuyue factions, they were first secretly attacked, suffering heavy casualties, and almost perished.
In the end, with the joint assistance of Shaolin, Zhenwu, and Jade Girl, the ambitious candle dragon was repulsed.
At this point, the various factions of Wuyue were also greatly damaged, and the Songshan, Hengshan, Huashan, Taishan and Hengshan factions felt their own strength and sense of crisis.
Therefore, the Songshan faction took the lead in discussing the merger with the Wuyue factions to resist the threat of other sects.
The Wuyue faction still retains the traditions and leaders of Songshan, Hengshan, Huashan, Taishan and Hengshan.
This is the reason why the author said that it is new and old, and the new is because the "Wuyue faction" is formed by the new merger of several old sects of Songshan, Hengshan, Huashan, Taishan, and Hengshan, and the old sect is composed of the old sect on the rivers and lakes.
However, the establishment of the headquarters of the Wuyue faction has also been a focus of contention among the various factions.
At that time, it was also when the True Martial Sect was also greatly injured when it exterminated the Candle Dragon Sect, but it was still one of the strongest gangs in the rivers and lakes.
Seeing that Zhenwu might be threatened by the Shenhu Gang, who were sitting on the mountain watching the tiger fight, at this critical moment, the various factions of the Five Peaks discussed with the True Martial Sect, and the Five Peaks Sect and the True Martial Sect temporarily formed an alliance to jointly defend against foreign enemies.
It is also because the true martial arts are the strongest, the founding of the faction is the oldest, and it has a high status in the hearts of the various factions of the Five Mountains, so the leader of the Five Peaks Sect is temporarily in charge of the head of the True Martial Sect.
After nearly ten years of recovery, under the dedicated guidance and management of the True Martial Sect, the Wuyue faction gradually merged into one, and the foundation gradually stabilized, reaching the spiritual unity of "the five mountains are in the same breath and will not fall for thousands of years".
At this point, the Wuyue faction was truly independent, and the leader of the Wuyue League was elected through the Wuyue Sword Contest held every five years, and the final winner was promoted to the leader of the Wuyue Alliance, so as to lead the Wuyue faction to continue to develop on the basis of the newly created Wuyue Mind Method and Wuyue Sword Method.
The Wuyue faction is now gradually rising, like a phoenix nirvana, developing rapidly, dominating in terms of numbers and power, and since the fusion of various sects of swordsmanship, martial arts are advancing one day a day, and at this time there is the most discussion in the rivers and lakes, and it is also the most active.
At present, the leader of the Wuyue faction is Songshan Gate Pass Mountain, known as "Baiyi Pass Mountain", because it has won with one enemy and one hundred, so it gets this honorific title, and sometimes the rivers and lakes also call it Baiyi Pass Mountain. He has been the leader of the alliance for two consecutive terms.
Other doors have the head of Huashan Gate, Qi Yijian, known as the "Shocking Sword", a sword stabbed out, fast as lightning, shocking ghosts;
The head of Hengshan Gate, Huo Buxiu, known as "geese do not fly", practice the ability of flying geese sticking to the sword, release a goose, within the range of Huo Buxiu's sword fingers, the sword goes with the geese, no matter how the geese fly, they can't fly away, and they don't hurt a feather of the geese;
The head of Mount Tai Gate Shi Chongsheng, known as "Shi dare to be", is upright, responsive, dare to be the head of Mount Tai at the foot of Mount Tai recognized by the common people as "Shi dare to be";
Murong Xiaoyue, the head of Hengshan Gate, is called "Jingyue", and the people of Jianghu are honored as "Jingyue Shitai", and the legend is that the patriarch of the founding school "Xiaofeng Shitai" was founded by Zhang Guolao, one of the eight immortals, and Jingyue is the third generation of heads.
At this time, as soon as the heads of the various factions received the news from the flying pigeon, they rushed to Songshan to meet one after another to discuss a matter of Jiangda.
This Songshan Gate is located in the Central Plains Songshan Taimur Mountain, and Shaolin is a close neighbor, this Taimur Mountain has a total of 36 peaks, the most famous is the Songshan Gate where the Huanggai Peak is located.
To enter here, you have to go around the mountains and rivers, fly over the walls and forests, and without the ability to fly the eaves and walk the walls, I am afraid it will take a few days to arrive.
Let's say that this Songshan sect view is hidden in the embrace of the peaks, lying in the mountains and green bushes, winding like a coiled dragon playing with pearls, leisurely like a spirit snake dancing, butterflies swinging with its flying, green and verdant and provocative.
From the foot of Huanggai Peak to the mountainside, it is magnificent, it is hidden in the clouds and smoke from a distance, it is hidden in the millennium Berlin, and the side of Tianshui Longtan is in the murmur.
From time to time, there are more rare birds and birds flying by, piercing the clouds and frightening the wind, making this quiet place like still water throwing stones, which is very beautiful;
From time to time, the sound of wild beasts resounded through the peaks and valleys, apes, tigers, wolverins, and the echoes were silent, like the sound in the painting, breathtaking.
The clouds move with the wind, the temple is lined with the shadow of the trees, the yellow tiles and red walls, colorful and colorful, beautiful like a painting, illusory like a fairyland, beautiful, wonderful.
There is a poem that says:
Thirty-six peaks are like mustaches,
Pedestrians come and go comfortably.
The white clouds suddenly closed,
It's all in the void.
Both to the palace gate, respect the house monument, there is an unwritten rule on the rivers and lakes, where to the palace of the sect, do not fly over and jump, need to walk step in.
The first is to express respect for the sect, the palace, the master and their ancestors.
The second is to pay attention to entering and exiting lightly, exploring and entering, and avoiding disturbance.
Walk through the gatehouse, climb the stairs, the foot is the 10,000-year-old chime stone paving platform, look up is the infinite stretch of stairs, go up to the end, burn incense around, the road niche stands in a forest.
You can see the gossip blessing pattern everywhere, the bronze statue of the ancient tree, occasionally a few Taoist friends condense their hearts and spit out, occasionally a few Taoist friends practice Tai Chi, and occasionally a few Taoist friends evolve to compare swords, a sense of fairyland.
Entering the Guandi, the leader of the Wuyue Alliance, Baiyi Guan Shanyue, walked out of the hall to greet him, and arched his hand: "Everyone, you are not welcomed." ”
Everyone said in unison: "The alliance leader is polite. ”
Then Qi Yijian, the head of Huashan, said: "I don't know why the alliance leader urgently flew the pigeon and asked me to wait?"
Guan Shanyue put away his smiling face, stepped forward and said, "This matter is very important, please go to the hall to discuss it in detail." ”
Everyone looked at each other, with a suspicious expression, so they had to follow into the hall and listen carefully to the alliance leader.
Walk into the hall, Gao Qiong Cangding, like the temple of the heavenly palace, the golden patterns on the vermilion lacquer pillar are all based on the gossip, the sandalwood is overflowing, and the candle is slightly bright.
All the way to the end, it is the chairman of the league, the spacious Taishi chair, backed by a portrait of the summit, is the Songshan faction as the originator of the Northern Wei Dynasty Taoist celebrity "Northern Heavenly Master Dao" Kou Qianzhi.
According to the Songshan faction, although the school was created late, but the origin is traced, it is the sage of Kou Qian who enlightened and taught the Tao in this year, and was awarded the title of "Heavenly Master" by the Taishang Laojun, and learned the "Record Picture Sutra", which became a legend for a while.
After everyone sat down, Guan Shanyue instructed his subordinates to retreat and said, "Recently, I received a secret report that the Xingyun Xianshu has reappeared in the rivers and lakes, I wonder if you have heard about it?"
Qi Yijian, Huo Buxiu, Shi Chongsheng, and Murong Xiaoyue were also shocked, and Shi Chongsheng spoke first: "I've only heard of this book, and I've heard that it's just some fragmented clues, and there is a dumb riddle, no one in the rivers and lakes can crack it, and this book is just a legend, right?"
Guan Shanyue continued: "No, there are indeed a lot of true and false legends in this book for hundreds of years, but as far as I know, Shaolin Temple once owned this book, and did you hear about Linggong stealing the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion some time ago?"
Huo Buxiu replied: "This matter has spread in the rivers and lakes, I heard that it was spread by people from Shaolin Temple, and now the major teahouses and taverns are all about this story, and it is rumored for a while." ”
Guan Shanyue continued: "Do you know what you stolen?"
Murong Xiaoyue replied, "I don't know. ”
Shi Chongsheng replied, "Could it be that Xingyun can't write the first book?"
"Yes and no. "Guan Shanyue pretends to be mysterious. Everyone was talking to each other, waiting for Guan Shanyue to answer.
He said unhurriedly: "Songshan Gate is close to Shaolin Temple, once something happens in Shaolin Temple, I can generally know as soon as possible, and the secret report said that Linggong was going to Shaolin Temple to steal the rubbing of "Nebula Xianshu", but Shaolin Temple did not have "Nebula Xianshu" at all. ”
Huo Buxiu heard this and wondered: "That means that the "Nebula Xianshu" is just a legend?"
"Let's listen to me, although I didn't see the "Nebula First Book", but I saw the "Nebula First Book's Notes", what does this mean, it shows that the "Nebula First Book" does have its book. Guan Shanyue's eyes lit up when he said this.
Qi Yijian continued: "There must be a reason why the "Nebula Ancestor" suddenly appeared now. ”
Huo Buxiu also said: "It is rumored that the "Nebula First Book" is a divine book in the world, and there are also legends on the rivers and lakes that Jiang Ziya was made a god through the "Nebula First Book". ”
"Not bad. Guan Shanyue continued: "Legend has it that this divine book can predict miracles, and if you are lucky enough to find miracles and obtain divine powers, you may become immortals, live forever, or have divine powers that ordinary people do not have. ”
When Qi Yijian and Murong Xiaoyue heard about it for the first time, Qi Yijian was a little skeptical and said: "Legends are just legends, and the only one who became an immortal through him is Jiang Ziya, which has been unheard of in the past few hundred years." ”
Murong Xiaoyue also agreed: "If what is said is really so expressive, then the rivers and lakes would have made a storm for this book earlier." ”
Guan Shanyue explained: "You don't know, the Nebula Xianshu appeared in the rivers and lakes two hundred years ago. ”
"Oh?" the crowd was amazed.
"At that time, this "Nebula Ancestor" was hidden in today's Longxingmen, and the ancestor of Longxingmen, Long Xinghei, used phantom meteorology to defeat the invincible opponents in the world. ”
"I don't know how to get the "Nebula First Book", and the news leaked to the rivers and lakes, and all the large and small sects on the rivers and lakes went to crusade. ”
"It's just that the Dragon Star Heir Phantom Meteor Technique is invincible, and it has been a stalemate, and finally in order to preserve the sect, the Nebula Ancestor Book was publicly donated to the Shaolin Temple Treasure Golden Pavilion for safekeeping. ”
At that time, the Shaolin Temple was in its heyday, and no one dared to bully, but later the Shaolin Temple Scripture Pavilion was stolen, and it was this book that was lost, and then the "Nebula Ancestral Book" disappeared. ”
Huo Buxiu said: "I see, where is this book now?"
Guan Shanyue spread his hands and said: "No one knows, otherwise there would not be Dongchang who has destroyed the richest man in the capital and the century-old legendary Kyushu Dart Game." ”
Shi Chongsheng replied: "The old man has also heard that the East Factory has been making a lot of moves recently, and it seems that he is vowing to find the Nebula Xianshu." ”
Guan Shanyue continued: "This is not all, the East Factory is in the Ming, but don't forget, the secret Linggong stole the Hidden Scripture Pavilion for the sake of the "Nebula First Book". ”
"There are also rumors that Linggong is employed by Dongying Kingdom, Dongying has always been secretive, and there are many methods, often hiding in the shadows, praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finches behind, and it is impossible to prevent it, and I have heard that Dongying has recently attracted a lot of gangs in the Central Plains rivers and lakes, and we must be more careful. ”
Huo Buxiu said: "Indeed, I heard that Dongying secretly united some sects on the rivers and lakes, and it turned out to be for the "Nebula First Book". ”
Guan Shanyue continued: "Now that the 'Nebula Ancestor' has gradually spread in the rivers and lakes, since we can know these news, I believe that all large and small sects will soon know about it, and at that time, I am afraid that the rivers and lakes will be turbulent again." ”
Shi Chongsheng said: "Alliance leader, it's just that although there are a large number of people after the Wuyue Sword Sect merged into the Wuyue Sect, after all, the various factions are scattered all over the place, and their vitality is greatly damaged, we still don't want to get involved in this "Nebula First Book", if there is a slight mistake, I am afraid that the Candle Dragon Sect will take advantage of the situation again, and we will become sinners through the ages." ”
Guan Shanyue pondered for a moment and said, "What Master Shi said is not unreasonable, and the old man is also thinking that with the style of the Candle Dragon Sect, he will definitely not turn a blind eye to the Nebula Ancestor. ”
"We only need to pay attention secretly, since our faction has a large number of people, we will plant an eye where each faction is, keep an eye on the trends of each faction, and with the strength of our faction, it is not appropriate to make a big move. ”
"The Book of Nebula is secondary to us, the important thing is to keep an eye on the factions, and if they fight each other, we will have a fisherman's profit. ”
Everyone nodded in agreement. Qi Yijian said: "As long as the Candle Dragon Sect and the various factions fight to the death, it will be the time when our faction will go straight to the headquarters of the Candle Dragon Sect and be ashamed." ”
The crowd is talking about the hatred of the enemy, and the spirit is high.
At this moment, the spies came to report: "Report to the alliance leader, it is rumored in the rivers and lakes that Dongchang has joined forces with the Whale Sea Gang, the Thunder Fire Gang, and the Blood Alliance to destroy the Longxing Gate, the scene is extremely tragic, and most of the people in the gate have died." ”
Also, at that time, more than a dozen monks of Shaolin Temple were also guests at Longxingmen, and it is rumored that only two people came back, and the rest of the Shaolin monks were killed. ”
"Got it, step down. Then Guan Shanyue said to everyone with a serious face: "It seems that it has begun, but wherever there is a trace of the "Nebula Ancestor", there will be a locust-like attack from Dongchang, and there will be no armor left everywhere it goes. ”
"We should be careful not to have any connection with the book. Moreover, Dongchang is so reckless, he dares to be the enemy of Shaolin Temple, too arrogant, it seems that Songshan is not a safe place, once Dongchang and Shaolin Temple start a war, it will inevitably affect the pond fish. We need to plan ahead. ”
Murong Xiaoyue proposed, "We can contact the head of the True Martial Arts, Mu Yuandao, as soon as possible and reach an alliance in case we need it." Everyone nodded their heads.
Guan Shanyue said: "This method is feasible, and at the same time, we must go to Shaolin Temple to understand the specific situation, and also make contact to see what Shaolin plans." ”
Huo Buxiu said: "As the old man sees, don't be too close to Shaolin, Shaolin Temple has Xingyun Xianshu handwritten remnants, I'm afraid Dongchang and the others will not let it go easily, otherwise how can they even dare to kill the Shaolin monks." ”
Guan Shanyue continued: "Master Huomen, the wolf ambitions of Dongchang, even if we don't help Shaolin, Shaolin will find the True Martial Sect to join forces." ”
"With the strength of the Wuyue faction now, there is a long gap between the two major sects, and we are so close to each other, just like the four neighbors on the street, only when everyone joins forces can there be victory at all, which sect is defeated by Dongchang, can the other sects protect themselves?"
"So, we're going to help anyway, it's good for everybody. ”
Everyone nodded in agreement. Then Guan Shanyue instructed: "I will go to the Shaolin Temple first to understand the situation, and then go to the True Martial Sect together, and join forces with the two major sects in advance to get ready." ”
In this way, each of the five led a disciple in Guannai, a total of ten people went to the Shaolin Temple.
