Chapter 242

Since the five elders of Taishan entered this big house, Li Qiufeng didn't care at first. There were more than a thousand people standing in the room at this time, all of whom were the leaders of the various gangs. All he cared about was the Wudang faction's Yu Qingzi. The man sat on the chair, his eyes slightly closed, and he didn't move like an old monk in a steady, not caring about the noise around him. Li Qiufeng was glanced at by Yu Qingzi, and he already knew that this Taoist priest was not only extremely high in martial arts, but also quick-witted, and he was really a great figure in the martial arts. It was to hide behind Deshui, although he didn't dare to keep staring at Yu Qingzi, he peeked at him from time to time.

When the five elders of Mount Tai and Guan Ping were arguing, Li Qiufeng came to his senses. When he heard the quarrel between Taishan's own family, he had noticed that He Yin, the second eldest of the five elders of Taishan, was quite different from the others.

Li Qiufeng first saw the five elders of Mount Tai, or in Yong'an City. At that time, he visited the residence of the Taishan faction at night and heard the secret discussion of the five elders. Later, the Taishan faction went to the Gu family's old store again and had a discussion with Liu Kang. Li Qiufeng has been by his master's side since he was a child, and his master has rich experience and insight into the world, and has taught him a lot of skills to observe words and emotions and speculate on other people's thoughts. After entering Jinyiwei on an errand, I saw a lot of officials and characters in the rivers and lakes, and I already knew a lot about the minds of these people. He has personally seen many second-grade and even first-grade officials confess after being arrested by Jinyiwei and tortured and lured by Jinyiwei. Some of them are tortured, but most of them are deserved. These high-ranking officials are meticulous and can almost be called watertight in their work. has seen more cases, and Li Qiufeng is more able to perceive other people's minds and understand the world. Although there are many cunning people in the martial arts, they are far worse than those big officials who have been immersed in officialdom for decades.

Although Li Qiufeng and the five elders of Mount Tai only have a few faces, they also have a very accurate grasp of the temperament of these five people. Ding Yu, the eldest of the five elders of Mount Tai, is arrogant, arrogant, narrow-minded, but the most protective. The third Kangyan is eloquent and the most cunning among the five elders. The fourth Wang Liang acted flamboyantly and recklessly. Lao Wujin's temperament is a little cowardly, and he hides behind everything, just trying to borrow his strength to keep his one-third of an acre.

But for He Yin, the second of the five elders of Taishan, Li Qiufeng never saw through him.

Although He Yin is not as good at everything as gold, and he does not want to show his face, but when he speaks, he is always in agreement with most people, and there is no leakage between conversations, making it difficult to figure out which side he is on. This is the case in the Taishan faction's residence and the Gu family's old shop in Yong'an City, in the underground underworld of the Imperial Tomb, and in this Hutou Rock Shajiabao, he is still like this.

Since the gray-clothed man led the five elders of Mount Tai to Guan Ping, Ding Yu, Kang Yan and others have been aggressive, and Wang Liang has even shouted and reprimanded. Gold stood aside, his face a little terrified. Only He Yin didn't say a word, but his face was calm, and he couldn't see what he was thinking. Li Qiufeng looked at the five elders for a while, and he didn't pay attention to the other four, but he was quite interested in He Yin.

After Guan Ping spoke, although Li Qiufeng already knew that this He Yin was not an ordinary person, he was also shocked in his heart.

The horror of Ding Yu and the others was far above the strong autumn wind. In Ding Yu's generation, when it comes to martial arts knowledge, the Taishan faction is naturally the most outstanding in terms of senior brother Shi Qingsong. Regarding Shi Qingsong taking over as the head of the Taishan faction, Ding Yu was also very convinced. It's just that when it comes to the second generation of disciples of the Taishan faction, his eldest disciple Lin Shujun is the most successful. Most of Shi Qingsong's apprentices are mediocre, although Guan Ping, who is deeply favored by Shi Qingsong, is not weak in martial arts, but he is silent and hesitant, not only is his martial arts inferior to Lin Shujun, but his cleverness is far worse.

It's just that Ding Yu knows that Shi Qingsong has the highest martial arts in the Taishan faction, and he has also won the respect of the disciples in all rooms in terms of virtue. If Shi Qingsong intended to pass on the position of head to Guan Ping, the disciples would naturally have nothing to say. It was Ding Yu who co-opted several juniors and disciples such as He Yin, Kang Yan, Wang Liang, and Huang Jin in the Taishan faction, and asked them to fully support their eldest disciple Lin Shujun.

That Lin Shujun is even more well-behaved, relying on his background in a wealthy family, in addition to taking out a lot of silver to make friends with the disciples in each room, he is also clever and polite to several uncles. He knew that these uncles all had filial piety under their disciples, and they didn't care too much about silver. It is to cater to the minds of all the uncles and spend a lot of money to invest in what they like. For example, the second uncle He Yin has the best pen and ink Danqing, and has collected many celebrity calligraphy and paintings. Lin Shujun went around buying celebrity paintings and calligraphy and gave them to He Yin. At first, He Yin didn't care, and after commenting on the calligraphy and painting sent by Lin Shujun, he immediately retreated. Later, Lin Shujun sent a painting of "Spring River Flower and Moonlight Night" written by Zhao Ji of Song Huizong with his unique thin gold characters. The third uncle, Kang Yan, is the best antique jade, and after Lin Shujun went down the mountain to do errands, he would often give Kang Yan some extremely rare antiques and jade when he returned to Mount Tai. The fourth Wang Liang likes food, and the fifth gold loves magic weapons. Lin Shujun also intended to do what he liked, and every time he went down the mountain to do errands, he came back to see the fourth and fifth uncles, and they also had gifts they liked.

With the efforts of Ding Yu and Lin Shujun's master and apprentice, a few years later, more than half of the Taishan faction stood on Lin Shujun's side, preaching Lin Shujun's benefits everywhere. He Yin and others also praised Lin Shujun. Kang Yan and Wang Liang even swore in front of Ding Yu that they must push Lin Shujun to the throne. Even Jinjin, who has always been cowardly in doing things, once patted his chest and promised Ding Yu that he would fully support Lin Shujun as the head of the Taishan faction.

As for He Yin, although he did not say that he supported Lin Shujun as the head of the house, he also repeatedly praised Lin Shujun for his "strong martial arts and proper work", Ding Yu knew that He Yin had always been indifferent to fame and fortune, did not participate in the internal power struggle of the Taishan faction, and never judged the merits of the disciples in each room. He can open his mouth to praise Lin Shujun, which is to give Lin Shujun a big face, and naturally he also supports Lin Shujun's ascension.

It is precisely because of the support of He Yin, Kang Yan, Wang Liang, Huang Jin and others that Ding Yu let go of his hands and feet and fought for Lin Shujun. It's just that people are not as good as heaven, Lin Shujun was seriously injured and died. Ding Yu's hard work once came to naught. It was only then that Shi Qingsong fell ill and died, and he became ambitious again. Although Lin Shujun is dead, he has no outstanding disciples. But Ding Yu has made up his mind to abolish Guan Ping's position as the head of the house no matter what.

He has such a decision, that is, he has always believed that He Yin, Kang Yan, Wang Liang, and Huang Jin will definitely support him.

It's just that he forgot one thing, that is, He Yin never explicitly said that he supported Lin Shujun to take charge of the Taishan faction. Not to mention that Guan Ping's position as head will be abolished.

After that, the five elders forced the palace, and Guan Ping made the first move, and actually wanted to ambush Ding Yu and others. Unexpectedly, Ding Yu had already bought several disciples of the Changfang and made arrangements in advance. Taking advantage of Guan Ping's desire to besiege and kill the five elders, he led everyone to counterattack, killed most of the disciples of the Changfang, and finally forced Guan Ping into Chaotian Palace. It's just that the five elders had always thought that Guan Ping's martial arts were inferior to Lin Shujun, and at this critical moment of life and death, Guan Ping relied on a long sword in his hand, and he actually resisted the siege of Wang Liang and Jinjin. Only then did the five elders know that Guan Ping has not shown his edge over the years, and if it comes to real martial arts, he is still above Lin Shujun. In the end, it was Ding Yu who forced He Yin to step forward to attack, and when Guan Ping was fighting with Wang Liang and Huang Jin with all his might, He Yin succeeded in the sneak attack and shook Guan Ping with one palm, which held Guan Ping. It's just that at that time, Ding Yu asked He Yin to kill Guan Ping on the spot, and although He Yin's palm was quite heavy, he did not kill Guan Ping on the spot. Although the five elders have turned against Guan Ping, no one wants to bear the infamy of "killing the head of the house". Ding Yu saw that He Yin had three points of strength, but he didn't want to kill Guan Ping, and he had a suspicion in his heart, so he became wary of He.

It's just that although Ding Yu was suspicious of He Yin, he just thought that He Yin didn't want the disciples of the Taishan Sect to know that he killed the head Guan Ping, let alone spread the matter to the rivers and lakes, so that the martial arts heroes thought that he was the one who committed the crime and killed the head of the sect. Because of the affairs of the rivers and lakes, the turmoil is treacherous. But the following crimes are despised by people in the martial arts. Even if the head of the gang is unethical, the head of the gang can be removed from the position of head by public opinion. If you use a knife and a gun, and you die, not only will you become the laughing stock of the rivers and lakes, but the person who committed the crime will be regarded as a traitor no matter what the reason for killing the head of the family, and everyone in the rivers and lakes will despise you. Although Ding Yu hated Guan Ping very much, he didn't want to kill him with his own hands, so he wanted to kill Guan Ping with a fake hand. He Yin didn't kill Guan Ping, although Ding Yu was annoyed, he only said that He Yin had selfish intentions and didn't want to be despised by his fellow Taoists, but he didn't suspect that he was unfaithful to him.

It's just that at this moment, recalling He Yin's various actions, everything is suspicious. Ding Yu was shocked and angry in his heart, turned his head to He Yin and said, "Second brother, what do you say about this?!"
