Chapter 218: Intricate
From Helan Xu's mouth, I learned that the famous sects in today's martial arts are basically gathered in Jingjiang Mansion. With the addition of the remaining weight, four of the five major families came, and the Zhongmeng family had a court background and never participated in the affairs of the rivers and lakes.
The Sanshan Sword faction brought the Yanshan faction and the Kunshan faction. Longhu Temple, Jiutai Temple, Nanshan School, and Sanskrit School also sent their own representatives.
Among the gangs in the rivers and lakes, the four major gangs of the Red Gang, the Salt Gang, the Ma Gang, and the Cao Gang gathered, and the other gangs in the rivers and lakes came a lot, large and small.
All of a sudden, this remote Jingjiang Mansion actually gathered most of the heroes and heroes in the martial arts.
"It seems that Xiaoxiao and the people from the Pure Mountain Sect came secretly this time. Yu Zhong secretly said that he had not heard the name of the Jingshan Sect in Helan Xu's mouth.
Seeing that Yu Zhong was in a daze, He Lanxu smiled and said, "I know what Brother Yu is thinking, you must be thinking about the white owner of Tiger Roaring Villa, right?"
Yu Zhong was stunned, and couldn't help but think of an old man in Tiger Roaring Heights.
"Five years ago, in the battle to besiege the main altar of the Demon Sect, although Tiger Roaring Villa also participated, but it was all when the old owner Liang Xiaotian was there, after all, the owner of Bai Zhuang had not been in charge of the villa for a long time, and his affairs were busy, so he didn't come to get involved in this matter. He Lanxu said.
However, Bai Li's failure to come to Yu Zhong is not necessarily a bad thing, after all, with her character, if she comes to meet Ye Xiaoxiao, she doesn't know what will happen. A woman's relationship is sometimes a kind of annoyance.
"By the way, Brother Helan, so many martial arts people gather here, they must all have their own positions, right?" Yu Zhong asked.
"You're on the point. He Lanxu replied.
The major martial arts forces that came to Jingjiang Mansion this time all participated in the battle of besieging the main altar of the Demon Sect that year. Five years later, the remnants of the Demon Sect reappeared, and Xuanyuanzi reappeared in the rivers and lakes, killing Pu Yan, the convener of the year. This incident shocked the rivers and lakes, and people panicked for a while.
In addition, there have been recent rumors in the rivers and lakes that the Baili Dart Bureau was entrusted by Xuanyuan Zi to escort the secrets of the two treasures of the Demon Sect to the Pu family. At that time, Xuanyuan Zi will come to Jingjiang in person to accept the challenge of Quan Wulin, and if he loses, he will reveal all his secrets and plates.
As soon as this news came out, it naturally alarmed the decent people who had participated in the siege of the Demon Sect's main altar back then.
Some of them want to take the opportunity to eradicate the remnants of the Demon Cult and maintain the righteous path. For example, the Dragon and Tiger Temple and Jiutai Temple, which are unique to Buddhism, are among the representatives.
Some are afraid that Xuanyuan will come to seek revenge, and they don't want to be broken by each one. Such is the idea of the Wuyong family, the Yanshan faction and the Kunshan faction.
Some covet the huge wealth of the Demon Sect's secret treasures, and salivate. The main thing that has such an idea is that it is dominated by gangs.
There are also those who are interested in the martial arts of the magic secret book and want to see it. Helan Xu himself had some such thoughts, but his more important task was to find out the causes and consequences of Pu Yan's death, which was also the responsibility of the Helan family as the leader of the martial arts alliance.
In short, this group of so-called decent people are also at odds with each other, each with a ghost and a heart.
"But I always feel that there is something strange about this matter......" He Lanxu said suddenly, telling some of the confusion in his heart.
It stands to reason that even in just five years, this Xuanyuan Zi can cultivate demonic skills and greatly increase his strength. But if he wants to seek revenge from all major factions, the best way should be to break them down one by one and challenge them one by one.
However, he went against common sense and made such a big movement, causing all the major sects to gather in Jingjiang Mansion. This actually adds to the difficulty for him.
With Gu Yu's demonic cultivation back then, he was still defeated before the wheel battle of the martial arts heroes, can his martial arts be more advanced than Gu Yu back then.
It is rumored that the treasures in the secret treasures of the Demon Sect are rich and rival the country, and the martial arts recorded in the secret books of the Demon Sect are unparalleled in the world. Since Xuanyuan Zi has already obtained these two things, why not just continue to remain incognito and escape from the rivers and lakes, but he must suddenly jump out and make waves.
Could it be that he really wants to inherit the mantle of Gu Yu back then, reinvigorate the Demon Sect, and fail to dominate the rivers and lakes.
These incomprehensions of Helan Xu coincide with the doubts that have always existed in Yu Zhongzhong. As Master Mu explained the events of the year, Yu Chong also felt that he was slowly approaching the truth of the facts.
It's just that behind this fog, there may be another twist and turn in a bizarre story.
"I came to Jingjiang Mansion with Baili Yu to find out the truth behind this matter, after all, we are already involved in it and cannot avoid it. Yu Zhong didn't know if he could trust He Lanxu, so he didn't plan to tell him about Master Mu for the time being.
"Great, the three of us work together, I think we can solve this matter faster, and the martial arts will be quiet. I still have some things to deal with, and I'll catch up with Brother Yu later. He Lanxu got up and said goodbye.
"Brother Helan walks slowly, but I also ask Brother Helan to keep my identity secret because I came here, after all, not too many people know my identity. Yu Zhong got up to send him off, and did not forget to advise.
"Understood, by the way, I live in the east wing of the inn, and if you have something, you can come to me at any time. After He Lanxu finished speaking, he left.
Being able to meet Helan Xu here is also something Yu Zhong didn't expect, but Jingjiang Mansion is the territory of the Pu family after all, and it is not a bad thing to have one more friend here.
"Boss, in fact, as long as the handover with Pu Han is completed tomorrow, there will be nothing for us, is it really necessary for us to wade into this troubled water?" asked Baili Hao with a long breath.
"We've been in the game since we took this trip, do you think we'll be able to get away easily? Yu replied.
"Could it be that Pu Han still wants to leave us for the New Year, haha. Baili said with a smile.
"Let me ask you, if what Master Mu said is true, there is really something in the cargo of this dart that is not good for Pu Han, you are him, who will you find to carry this black cauldron?" Yu Zhong asked.
Hearing this, Bai Li Yu was dumbfounded, and Yu Zhong hit the nail on the head to say the key point. They've been caught up in it before they know it.
There is no doubt that if Pu Han pushes all the things to the Baili Dart Bureau at that time, they will not be able to wash it away by jumping into the Yellow River, and even if they take out what Master Mu said as evidence, they will become framed.
Thinking of this, Bai Li Shu couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat behind his back, and he suddenly felt that he was now like meat on a chopping board, to be slaughtered.
"Boss, what are we going to do now?" he lost his mind for a moment.
"At least until tomorrow, we are still safe, you go out to collect the wind first, I want to go to find Xiaoxiao first, she has been gone since entering the city. Yu replied.
"Okay. After Bai Li Xuan finished speaking, he ran out of the smoke, and now he only hoped that the rest of his guess would not come true.
In the dark alley. Two figures, one tall and one short, were talking.
"Little Senior Sister, the master said, Jingjiang Mansion is now a gathering of storms, and the eyes of all forces are all over the city, it is not appropriate for you to see her at this moment, if you have anything to say, I can convey it in the center. "It was the little junior sister of the Jingshan faction, Ningxizi, who spoke.
"How to proceed with the next step, does the master have any instructions?" Ye Xiaoxiao replied. The master in her mouth is the head of the Jingshan faction, Jingyi.
"The master said, you can continue to stay by the side of the Baili Dart Bureau, although they don't seem to be very important, but they are actually in the center of the whirlpool of this incident, not to mention that there are more Shaoxia here, and your safety is more guaranteed. Ningxizi said.
Ye Xiaoxiao's face turned red, and she hurriedly said, "Why did you tell the master about Brother Yu......
"Master, she is an old man with great wisdom, how can I hide from her. Hehe, are you really tempted, little sister?" Ningxizi winked mischievously.
"Don't talk nonsense, I won't have a relationship with children until I find out the truth of the matter. Ye Xiaoxiao pretended to be angry.
"Okay, okay, I know, the master told you to be careful and safe, after all, your identity is too important. Ningxizi admonished again.
As soon as these words came out, Ye Xiaoxiao's expression suddenly became a little desolate.
"Please rest assured, I will take care of myself until I achieve my goal. With that, she turned around and walked out of the dark alley.
She didn't walk far, and she saw Yu Zhong riding Zhao Yebai and walked over, she quickly changed her expression and greeted her with a smile.
"Brother Yu. Ye Xiaoxiao shouted and ran forward.
The figure in the dark alley on the corner of the street flashed, and Ningxizi let out a long sigh and disappeared.
"Where have you been, let me find it for a while. Yu Zhong asked.
"It's all said that I'm going to meet up with my brothers and sisters......" Ye Xiaoxiao replied.
"Shh......h Come with me, I have something to tell you. Yu Zhong grabbed Ye Xiaoxiao's hand, and with a slight pull, he pulled her onto the horse and sat in his arms.
Shine Yebai let out a long hiss, and galloped away with them. A few black shadows flashed in the crowd, and when he saw that he couldn't catch up with Zhao Yebai, he could only stomp his feet in place with hatred.
"Brother Yu, where are we going. Ye Xiaoxiao asked.
"This is not the place to talk, someone is following, let's find a secluded place. Yu replied.
The two of them came all the way to the suburbs, and the horse's pace slowed down. At this time, Yu Zhong found that Ye Xiaoxiao's face was already as red as an apple. He hurriedly let go of the hand that was holding Ye Xiaoxiao tightly, and said, "The speed was too fast just now, I was afraid that you would fall off the horse, so ......"
"Stupid, it's okay. By the way, aren't you going to tell me something?" Ye Xiaoxiao replied with her head down.
Yu Zhong told Ye Xiaoxiao everything he heard from Helan Xu.
"So it's these things......" Ye Xiaoxiao seemed to be a little disappointed.
"Or what do you think is going on......?" asked Yu Zhong as he looked at her with a confused expression.
"Oops, I hate ......" Ye Xiaoxiao blushed and hit Yu Zhong with his shoulder, almost knocking him off the horse.
"Be careful. Suddenly, Yu Zhong felt a chill behind him and shouted loudly.
He hugged Ye Xiaoxiao's waist, kicked the stirrups with both feet, and the two of them rose into the air and landed firmly on the ground.
