Chapter 153: Women Don't Let It
A meal is eaten until the moon is empty. Looking at the affairs here, Duan Zhengji explained his intention to everyone the next day. But as soon as he heard that Duan Zhengji was leaving, where were the people who were worried that the four major killers who had slipped through the net would return to take revenge?
Thinking that Duan Zhengji, who had successfully completed the task of this trip, had no choice but to accept everyone's invitation and stay in Chen Shi's house for the time being, waiting for the person who slipped through the net to come to seek revenge.
Let's talk about Lin Ziyan. Since returning to Fuzhou that day, after entrusting the tasks and inventory of Hong Qi, Shaolin and Wudang heads, I thought that my father would reprimand him for making arbitrary claims; This couldn't help but remind him of the time when his great-ancestor Lin Yuantu and the six major factions joined hands to fight the sword rivers and lakes to rectify the order of the rivers and lakes.
It was precisely because of this good orderly environment that Weiyuan Dart Bureau developed from a trading operation of less than 1,000 people to a famous faction with more than 100,000 disciples and prestige throughout Kyushu in just over 10 years! However, in recent years, with the gradual decline of the six major factions, the strength of the righteous path has gradually declined; the rules of the rivers and lakes in the past have long existed in name only, especially in recent years, and there have even been cases of dart silver being lost and the dart car being robbed! Thinking of this, Lin Zhentang couldn't help muttering to himself, "It is indeed time to reorganize the rivers and lakes!" The martial arts righteous path has finally made a move......
'What did you say?' Hearing Lin Zhentang's words, Lin Ziyan hurriedly raised his head and asked. "My son, do you know that the Xixia Yipintang, Shenjianmen, and the little prince of the Duan clan in Dali, who are on the mission with you this time, are all male lords from the rivers and lakes? Yes, you can be selected by the head of the old gang and the Shaolin and Wudang factions; it shows that our Fuzhou Lin family has never been despised by the righteous path of martial arts, but has been even more honored! Therefore, in this plan of the righteous path of martial arts, you must strive to be the first, so as to win back the glory of my Fuzhou Lin family's family when the Yuantu Gong was in the past!'' The child wrote it down, and his father saw a solemn expression on Lin Zhentang's face, and while Lin Ziyan made a promise to his father, he also secretly made up his mind that he would not lag behind the other people.
Seeing this, after Lin Zhentang gave two more words of encouragement, the father and daughter immediately discussed. After everything was settled, early the next morning, Lin Ziyan hurried to Jianning Mansion. Jianning Prefecture has jurisdiction over seven counties, including Jian'an (now Jian'ou City, Fujian Province), Ouning (now Ou City, Fujian), Jianyang (now Jianyang District, Nanping City), Chong'an (now Wuyishan City), Pucheng (now Pucheng County), Zhenghe (now Zhenghe County), Songxi (now Songxi County), and 480 miles from the province in the southeast, 495 miles wide and 430 miles away.
The ancients said that "the cangli knows the etiquette, and the food and clothing are sufficient and knows the honor and disgrace", because the mountains here are extended, which is not conducive to cultivation; therefore, the relatively barren ground of Jianning Mansion has become a gladiatorial arena where more than 20 large and small hills and the Qingyumen, the Black Tiger Gang, the Shenglong Hall and other factions in the city compete for each other, and fight openly and secretly, which is completely a chaotic scene with no rules of the rivers and lakes at all!
That is, on the same day, dozens of heads of Jianghu sects on the ground of Jianning Mansion also received a letter of challenge almost at the same time! After seeing the payment of the Weiyuan Dart Bureau, the people who received the book couldn't help but mutter. 'This Fuzhou Lin family's Fuzhou conference, which has been held for more than 100 years and can be called the top competition in the rivers and lakes, is not enjoyable, and now it has even sent the daughter of the head of the family to set up rings with various places;
Although there are quite a few complaints, but after seeing the signatures of Shaolin, the head of Wudang and the leader of the beggar gang Hong Qi are also impressively listed, the heads of the group still launched the two big masters of Tianhu Mountain and Wuyi Mountain, and Qing Zihua, the head of the Qingyumen in the city, and several people went to fight. On the day Lin Ziyan came to the city of Jianning Mansion, after learning that the ring had been built and everything had been settled, he came to the ring early in the morning.
Not long after, as soon as the hour passed, as Lin Ziyan stood still on the stage, several leaders immediately stepped into the ring on time as promised. Gossip aside, the competition began immediately. Since there were not many people to fight, Lin Ziyan only needed to fight two battles in a row. The first one to start was the duel between Lin Ziyan and Tianhu Mountain and Wuyi Mountain. As soon as the competition began, the two big masters who had the intention to show their hands in front of many sects made a move, even if they had the ability to watch the house, and attacked with all their might. But even though the two of them were ruthless and aggressive, after more than ten moves, Lin Ziyan counterattacked with a subtle move, but they still inevitably lost and admitted defeat on the spot!
After the first unsuspenseful duel passed, the next competition between Lin Ziyan and Qing Zihua, the head of Qingyumen, was a little bit said. This Qingzihua is the nephew of the old head of the Emei faction in the early years, Qingxuan Shitai, and the current head of the Emei faction, Yuhua Shitai, is the same brother and sister;
However, after all, the Lin family in Fuzhou is a master of swordsmanship, and the swordsmanship that Lin Ziyan practiced to ward off evil spirits came from the mastery of the "Sunflower Treasure Book"; after fighting more than ten moves in one go, Lin Ziyan cast a subtle move, which not only instantly broke the opponent's heavy sword curtain, but also cut off a piece of Qing Zihua's clothes by the way!
"Thank you for the mercy of your nephew, the old man understands, I admit defeat!" This Qing Zihua is worthy of being the head of the ground leader sect of Jianning Mansion, and his bearing is naturally not comparable to ordinary people. Seeing that a move was missed, he learned the magic of the opponent's swordsmanship, and when he lost the sword in his hand, he clenched his fist and said.
'The seniors don't have to be too humble, the juniors are just a fluke!' Seeing that he was really extraordinary, Lin Ziyan hurriedly returned the salute. Seeing that Lin Ziyan was not out of sight and maintained his face, Qing Zihua was moved, and couldn't help but blurt out, "I just don't know what the virtuous niece means by setting up this ring?"
Since the Fuzhou Lin family was controlled by Lin Yuantu's father and son for two generations, although they dare not say that they are the leaders of the rivers and lakes, they can at least be called the hegemon of one side. Therefore, as soon as Lin Ziyan's words came out, all the leaders in the audience who were secretly speculating immediately jumped onto the stage, and asked in unison with Qing Zihua, "Since you don't have the intention of making a name for yourself, what is the intention of this move?" ’
Seeing this, Lin Ziyan hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted, "The purpose of the junior's trip is really to be entrusted by the three heads of Shaolin, Wudang, and the Beggar Gang;
After everyone whispered, they couldn't help but ask in unison, 'What is the agreement?'' It's just to make the seniors safe and secure, or it can be said to be a gentleman's covenant!' Lin Ziyan replied. Seeing that he can't beat others, and it is also a rare honor to be able to sign an agreement with the three major leaders of the rivers and lakes, so after Qing Zihua took the lead in signing the documents that clearly demarcated the sphere of influence and the main business, the heads of the family should be named one by one under the guidance of the polite Lin Ziyan.
Although he was victorious, Lin Ziyan did not dare to be careless at all after thinking that Duan Zhengji and the others were also doing it at the same time; after everything was done, he only stopped for a while, and then hurried to Quzhou in front.
Quzhou, where Wuyue Huiji County is located in ancient times, is located at the junction of Zhejiang, Fujian, Jiangxi and Anhui, and is subordinate to the eastern province of Zhejiang, and has jurisdiction over more than 10 counties such as Xin'an, Xujiang, Changshan and Yingzhou. Because it is located in a rich place in the upper reaches of the Qiantang River, it is regarded as the marginal transportation hub and distribution center for waterborne goods in the four provinces, and is known as the "thoroughfare of the four provinces and the head of the five roads"! Therefore, although the ground in Quzhou is not too large, dozens of large and small gangs of all sizes, such as Yingchuantang, Changshanmen, and Xujiang factions, have set up sects and set up sects here.
Lin Ziyan came to Quzhou City, learned that everything had been settled, and only went to the place where the ring was set up for a while, and then hurriedly returned to the Weiyuan Dart Bureau to recuperate and prepare for the next day.
Three days later, as soon as the date of the battle arrived, Lin Ziyan appeared on time in good spirits. After a short time, after all the heads of the factions arrived, Lin Ziyan said the opening remarks, and the competition began immediately!
The first to come to the scene was Sun Jiada, the leader of the quicksand gang, who had learned kung fu with his fists and feet under the Shaolin sect in his early years, and was invincible with an iron rod in his hand; since he founded the quicksand gang on the ground in Quzhou more than 10 years ago, although he is not as good as those sects whose disciples often have hundreds or even thousands, his strength should not be underestimated, and he can be called a first-class figure on the ground in Quzhou! After coming to power, after the two sides only gave a brief signal, the two immediately started fighting. Following the precedent, after barely letting him go through twenty moves, Lin Ziyan immediately used a subtle move, and knocked down the iron rod in the opponent's hand with a sword.
Seeing that his side lost the first battle, he couldn't help but be pouted by others, and the head of Yingchuan Hall, who had long been unable to hold back, even shouted loudly and jumped onto the stage. In addition, he later met a famous teacher and cultivated a unique 'Meteor Eighteen Style', and a meteor rope in his hand had already beaten the invincible opponent in the south of the Yangtze River; he could be called the top master of the southern green forest; and Wang Xu, the head of the Dasujiang faction of Sun Jia, the leader of the quicksand gang, was called the 'Quzhou Sanjie' of the local Dinghai Shenzhu on weekdays! At this moment, seeing Sun Jiada's defeat, mockery was everywhere;
