Seeing that the shopkeeper was speechless, Wei Chenglie immediately went downstairs to inquire in person. I barely found an empty place, and I didn't know until I sat down. It turned out that Liu Chengjiang, the leader of the Cao Gang here, will celebrate his 80th birthday tomorrow! At that time, not only will a grand birthday banquet be set up to celebrate, but there will also be a ceremony to wash his hands in the golden basin after that; he will withdraw from the rivers and lakes! Liu Chengjiang has been in charge of the Cao Gang for nearly 40 years, and not only is his wealth incalculable; moreover, he is a man who values wealth and righteousness, and his friends are all over the world! In addition, the life expectancy of most people in the rivers and lakes is less than 50 years, and it seems that this 80th birthday is rare; therefore, this has attracted many friends from the rivers and lakes to come and cheer.

"What are you ?......" gossip, seeing that everyone in the audience had a big red name post, Wei Chenglie blurted out. "This is a heroic post invited to watch the ceremony!" all sects and factions have been delivered; which sect is the honorable driver?" "My master is a master in the world, so naturally I haven't seen this Laoshzi hero," Wei Chenglie replied. Although this Wei Chenglie is not handsome, he has a straight nose and a square mouth, sword eyebrows, and a heroic generosity that is difficult to hide in his words and deeds, which cannot help but be underestimated. Thinking of the fact that there are no sects and no sects in the rivers and lakes, and there are endless masters in the world, the person who asked the question immediately changed his words and said, "I have no other intentions in the next place!" I just said that if my friend has not seen this post, then you can go with me Wudang to watch the ceremony. ''Thank you, friend!'' Wei Chenglie nodded in thanks.

After asking again where the Cao Gang's main altar was, Wei Chenglie immediately returned to the room and fell asleep. Due to the fatigue of the saddle horse for several days, Wei Chenglie slept until three o'clock the next day before waking up. The time was almost up, and Wei Chenglie only took a little bit of a beat, and then rushed straight to the Cao Gang headquarters in the city. After coming, I saw that the whole building, which was already quite magnificent, had already been whitewashed and hung with red colors, and everywhere was ushering in and sending, laughing and laughing, and a scene full of friends!

After following the flow of people, I saw that the huge front hall and the courtyard had already prepared a banquet with more than 100 large tables! Not only were there all kinds of dishes from the north and south on each table, but there were also several waiters in front of each table to greet them; although there were many people coming, they were in an orderly manner! Since he was not among the invitees, and seeing that there were still vacant seats outside the hall, Wei Chenglie stepped forward to find a seat and sat down with the others. The courtyard was originally prepared for lowly people of all factions, and when they saw Wei Chenglie sitting down, everyone on the seat didn't care. Look at the banquets everywhere are full, when the young man is invited, after the polite words are finished, several juniors in the family have saluted; with the birthday star Liu Chengjiang's high announcement, more than 100 large tables inside and outside the hall and nearly 1,000 people suddenly eat together. This Liu Chengjiang seemed to be in high spirits today! With the support of several disciples, not only did he take turns to toast at the table and drink to each other repeatedly, but also every table outside the hall was not missing! Even Wei Chenglie, who was seated in the courtyard, was toasted without exception.

After a short time, after three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, because the wine banquet in the courtyard is set up with flowing water, but when someone comes, it will not stop serving; therefore, until the middle of the moon is approaching, there is still an endless stream of people coming. Among them, there are characters in the rivers and lakes who are dressed up in short suits and neat clothes, officials and officials dressed in soap suits, and ninth-rate characters in ragged clothes. Due to the increasing complexity of seeing people, it was not long before the novelty of Wei Chenglie's first arrival was swept away. It was too late to see that Wei Chenglie, who had already yawned for days, got up and left, and only waited two days later to watch Liu Chengjiang's golden basin to wash his hands.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye. As soon as the day came, Wei Chenglie followed those Wudang disciples to Liu Chengjiang's outer house where the ceremony was held. After coming to this private mansion located on a large area outside the city, as soon as he entered the garden, Wei Chenglie couldn't help but be taken aback immediately. I saw that in the garden that occupies a huge area, there are not only countless strange flowers and plants everywhere, but also the pavilions, pavilions, and winding bridges and corridors are all complete! Even the rare birds and beasts such as the white cranes that are rarely seen on weekdays are also leisurely walking and taking a leisurely walk in them; and what is particularly breathtaking is that there is also a high platform in the middle of the garden! The platform is three stories high, and each floor is equipped with a pavilion with extremely delicate carved beams and paintings; so that the whole garden appears to be both beautiful and magnificent!

Seeing that the people from all factions had flocked to the place, under the guidance of a group of deacons in the garden, and after a while, all the people who came filled up the open spaces under the stage according to their directions!'This Central Plains Jianghu sect really loves to join in the fun!'After a rough calculation, after seeing that there were hundreds of people, Wei Chenglie couldn't help but be shocked again. Since Wei Chenglie could only see more than 100 people gathered on weekdays when he was in Yipintang, how could he not be surprised when he knew that the people who came were all elite figures of higher rank in various factions? After making a secret speech, seeing that the scene was not noisy, he had no choice but to keep silent and stand silently in the audience waiting to watch the ceremony.

Not long after, seeing that all the factions had arrived, Liu Chengjiang, who had already packed up and dressed up neatly, even climbed the high platform. After standing still, Liu Chengjiang immediately rushed to the audience and saluted and said, "I, Liu, asked myself, that it is not much help to the martial arts of the rivers and lakes on weekdays, but the gift of today's retirement of the old man has been supported by many friends; After speaking, he wanted to cry, and sighed.

After waiting for a while, after the audience was quiet, Liu Chengjiang changed his words and began to preach again: "Although I, Liu, have tried my best to abide by the rules of the rivers and lakes and treat people with sincerity on weekdays! After finishing speaking, he leaned down and bowed deeply to the audience. After worshipping here, and going to the next level, he still blamed himself for himself, and he rushed to the stage to make amends. Although some people could not help but come to the stage to persuade him at this time, how could Liu Chengjiang be willing to do so? Without saying anything, he broke free from the crowd, went to the next level, and bowed down again.

After the three layers of pavilions were completed, Liu Chengjiang took off his strong clothes and put on the ordinary coarse linen clothes that had been prepared for a long time; Sit down with the stage. When he was young, when he saw that the auspicious time had arrived, several deacons immediately came to the stage with a disciple holding a golden basin of water and placed the basin on the table.

The basin that the disciple had placed was the size of an ordinary washbasin, made of gold throughout, and filled with water. According to the rules of the rivers and lakes: as long as the initiator cleans his hands with the water in the basin, he will be regarded as leaving the rivers and lakes, and all the previous grievances of the rivers and lakes will be cut in two. Therefore, Liu Chengjiang immediately got up and walked to the front of the stage, and blamed himself again; after bowing again; as long as there was no objection from the audience; and finally he only needed to clean his hands with water in the basin, and the whole set of etiquette would be completed, and he would have nothing to do with the rivers and lakes again! Seeing that the progress was going very smoothly, Liu Chengjiang, who was about to complete his work, could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.

But just as he got up for the last time, and was about to put his hand into the basin, 'Wait!' and with a loud shout, a man appeared on the stage. According to the rules of the rivers and lakes: as long as the person has admitted his mistake before, and the offended person has not raised objections on the spot, then he should not trouble him anymore. Therefore, as soon as this person came out, the people in the audience couldn't help but suddenly become suspicious. "Presumably, this Liu gang leader has offended these mysterious sects in the rivers and lakes before! But what kind of beam is there that can't be solved?

Knowing that such grievances are not enough to be known to outsiders, although everyone in the audience is gloomy, they think that as long as the grievances are not resolved, even if they withdraw from the rivers and lakes, it will be difficult for them to be peaceful in the future; no one in the audience can have an immediate attack, so they have to wait and see for the time being. "What is the reason for the ritual of returning to seclusion today, but interfering and making trouble?"

"Retreat, I see that you are also old and faint!Liu Chengjiang, have you forgotten the promise you made with my master that day?" The masked man glanced at Liu Chengjiang obliquely, and when his tone was neutral, he revealed a strong sense of mockery. Hearing this person's words, "I have already offered ten million taels of silver!" Liu Chengjiang, who was full of anger, replied, and then stretched out his hand to the basin. Seeing this, 'In that case, I think it's superfluous for you to live!' and I will simply retreat you cleanly!' The masked man immediately let out a loud shout, and immediately attacked. The two fought on the stage.

After handing over, Liu Chengjiang was still able to draw with the opponent at first, but after half an hour, he gradually fell into a disadvantage, showing signs of being unable to parry! 'Bold! Dare to spread wilderness in my Central Plains martial arts?' Seeing that the masked man and martial artists were not like Zhongtu Luzi, with the same shout, several figures immediately flew up, and together with Liu Chengjiang on the stage, they launched a siege on the masked man.

The masked man was one enemy, but he had no fear, and the more he fought, the more courageous he became! I saw that after he cast his palm all the way, not long after, many of the besieging people on the stage were dead on the spot. Seeing this, Liu Chengjiang shouted angrily, so he had to resort to his mastery and launched a fierce attack on the masked man. Although Liu Chengjiang's palm technique was exquisite and his offensive was fierce, in the midst of the flickering and swaying of the masked man, how could he bargain for a moment? Looking at it intently, he recognized that what Liu Chengjiang was using at this time was the Tianshan Six Yang Palm, and Wei Chenglie in the audience knew that he could no longer stand idly by. Then he immediately shouted loudly, flew up, and rushed into the battle group.
