Chapter 23: The New Head of Wudang
"Miss, do you mean uncle?"
Shen Xiaoqing nodded, frowned and said, "Do you say that he will really be so flustered after accidentally injuring someone?"
"I think that at that time on Tiangong Mountain, watching Wudang Luo's head split the mountain with a sword, my little apprentice and Luo Zhangmen were stunned, but my uncle treated it indifferently, as if everything was as he expected. Later, Master Luo vomited blood and died, and his uncle didn't even frown. β
"What do you mean, he's pretending?"
Chun Tao nodded: "Eighty percent is pretended." And when he was fighting with the young master of the Lin family, his uncle seemed to be in a hurry and always made mistakes in his busyness, but he was able to turn evil into good fortune every time. I looked at the flaws in his clothes, and they just scratched them, and they didn't hurt him in the slightest. β
"But he doesn't know martial arts. β
"Miss, don't forget, Master Luo only wielded the sword that opened the mountain and drained the river under the guidance of his uncle!"
Shen Xiaoqing held her forehead, only feeling nerve-wracking, she was becoming more and more unable to understand Ye Fei now.
Coming out of Shen Xiaoqing's house and looking at the eaves on Wei Xuan's side, Chun Tao felt guilty. Ye Fei treated her well, but she had said a lot of bad things about Ye Fei to Shen Xiaoqing just now.
She could see how much Ye Fei liked Shen Xiaoqing a little, of course, most of the reason was because of Shen Xiaoqing's appearance. Compared with the sons and daughters of those famous families in Shaoxing City, Ye Fei is still a lot stronger.
It's just that she thinks Shen Xiaoqing deserves a better person.
In the evening, Liu Zhennan came to the Shen Mansion as a guest. said that he was apologizing for what happened this morning, but in fact, he was trying to find out about the Sword Saint's freedom.
"Surnamed Shen, I heard your Qing girl say that the Sword Saint came to your house as a guest a few days ago, and accepted your aunt's maid as a closed disciple, but is there such a thing?"
Shen Yu was quite surprised, he thought that Ye Fei would say it to show off to others, but he didn't expect it to be Shen Xiaoqing who said it.
He nodded and acknowledged the matter.
"Okay, surnamed Shen, I have known you for so many years, and you didn't come to inform me of such a good thing, believe it or not, I demolished your yard. Liu Zhennan said angrily.
"Demolish it, demolish it, I can see the Sword Master once, and it's worth demolishing my yard. β
"It's really enough," Liu Zhennan said disdainfully, "It's really ridiculous." At the beginning, your uncle came over, and everyone looked down on him, but now on the rivers and lakes, whoever sees him can't take a look at him. β
"Why?" asked Shen Yu.
"Shen Daxia, are you really stupid or fake stupid! The closed disciple of the Sword Saint is your maid, isn't this glorious enough to say?" Liu Zhennan said.
Shen Yu smiled, of course he was not stupid, otherwise he would not have let Ye Fei follow Shen Xiaoqing to attend the Qingwu Meeting, just to use Qiusang's incident to establish authority for the family in Shaoxing City.
"It seems that Zhong Shuqian of Xiaoxiang Academy is embarrassed. β
"What's wrong?" Shen Yu asked in surprise, as soon as he mentioned Xiaoxiang Academy, he was very interested.
"At today's meeting, he didn't believe it, so he made a bet with your aunt with a high-five. If this matter is false, your uncle will let him dispose of it, and if this matter is true, then your uncle will write the four words of scum under the four words of bookish qi written by Xiao Yihe. β
After listening to what Liu Zhennan said, Shen Yu thought to himself, what should he do if he annoyed Xiao Yi because of this matter? He thought about it and had to talk to Ye Fei, asking him to withdraw the bet with Zhong Shuqian in front of everyone.
At this time, the news of the Sword Saint's visit to the Shen family and the acceptance of Sang as a closed disciple had spread all over Shaoxing, and it would spread all over the rivers and lakes in a few days.
On the second day, before dawn, Tiangong Mountain was already overcrowded, and they all came here after hearing that the Sword Master was fishing in Tiangong Mountain.
After dawn, everyone was surprised to find the tomb of Luo Xuanyi, the head of Wudang, and in addition, a strange stream was found. As a result, the news that Luo Xuanyi was killed by the Sword Saint spread.
At this time, Luo Xuanyi's little apprentice Lin Dongxian had just returned to Wudang Mountain.
After climbing the mountain for another half a day, Lin Dongxian finally returned to the sect. He first saw the second senior brother Wang Feilu in the vegetable garden on the edge of the archway, and instantly burst into tears, wanting to tell the senior brother the bad news of the master's death, but the second senior brother was busy planting vegetables and sweating profusely, so he asked him to go to the hall first;
After wiping away the tears on his face, Lin Dong walked to the hall first, and soon saw Guo Yingzhi, the senior brother who was chasing the old hen in the front yard.
"Senior brother!" Lin Dongxian cried again, wanting to throw himself into Guo Yingzhi's arms.
"Little junior brother, you're back, help me catch this chicken. β
"Senior brother, Master. β
"Come on, your third senior brother is still waiting to kill the chicken. Guo Yingzhi was very anxious.
So, Lin Dongxian had to help catch the chicken, and after finally catching the chicken, the senior brother asked him to send the chicken to the room.
When he arrived at the room, the third senior brother Yin Tianqi was shirtless in front of the stove to light a fire, and when he saw him carrying a chicken in, the third senior brother smiled and said: "Little junior brother, you are back! Uncle Shi calculated a hexagram half a month ago, saying that you would come back today, so he specially killed a chicken to catch the wind and wash the dust for you." β
"Uncle Shi has calculated it," a light flashed in Lin Dongxian's eyes, "Then he has calculated that Master has already gone to the west!"
Yin Tianqi's face darkened, and he said, "As early as four years ago, when Master took you down the mountain, Uncle Shi had already calculated it. At that time, Uncle Shi told Master that if Master did not come down the mountain four years ago, he would live for at least eight years, and if he did go down the mountain, he would only live for four years at most. β
"Then in that case, why did Master go down the mountain in the first place?" Lin Dong asked first.
"It's like you eating, you know you're going to pull it out sooner or later, so why do you have to eat?"
"If you don't eat, you'll starve. β
"Yes, Master will suffocate to death if he doesn't go down the mountain!" Yin Tianqi sighed, "When we went down the mountain, several of our senior brothers tried their best to keep them, and were scolded by the master. β
Coming out of the room, Lin Dongxian felt a lot better. When he came to the backyard, he saw that the fourth senior brother Chen Youdao was feeding the pigs in the pigsty, so he walked over and said, "Fourth senior brother, I'm back." β
Chen Youdao, who was smelly, turned his head, smiled at him, and said, "Little junior brother, you're back." Master is already buried, isn't he?"
"Buried, buried on Tiangong Mountain in Shaoxing, Jiangnan. β
"It's good to bury it, and save a funeral expense. Besides, the master didn't like to be lively during his lifetime, so it would be better for him to be buried like this. Chen Youdao was a little sad.
But soon, a smile appeared on his face again, patted Lin Dongxian's shoulder and said, "After four years of wandering outside, you have grown a lot taller, and Senior Brother almost can't recognize you." Let's take a look at these pigs raised by my senior brother, how are they, are they all fat and thick!"
"Well, I'll help my brother raise pigs together. β
After a while, the five brothers gathered in the courtyard in front of the house to eat.
The second senior brother Wang Feilu dug out a jar of wine from the soil, and said with a wicked smile: "This is the old and good wine that Uncle Shi secretly hid in the ground, I will dig it out to catch the wind for my junior brother!"
Everyone laughed, and then Lin Dong asked first, "By the way, what about Uncle Shi?"
He took his disciples down the mountain to rob the rich and help the poor. "Senior brother Guo Yingzhi.
"Rob the rich and help the poor!" Lin Dong smiled bitterly.
The so-called robbing the rich and helping the poor is actually to steal the money of the landlords and bullies, and then distribute it to some poor people.
Because it's not a glorious thing, so Uncle Shi and they all stole it in the name of the Yin-Yang faction, and Zhao Youchuan, the head of the Yin-Yang faction, was so angry that he often came to Wudang from Qingcheng Mountain to scold his mother, and a scolding was ten days and half a month.
The longest time was nine months, during which Zhao Youchuan also raised a black goat, slaughtered the sheep two days before leaving, and ate it with the people of Wudang.
After the senior brothers were eaten for a while, Lin Dong said first: "Now that the master is gone, and the position of the head is vacant, do you want to invite the senior uncle back to discuss this matter." β
"No, I don't. Uncle Shi said before going down the mountain that whoever the master gave the Xuanyi Sword to would be the next head. Guo Yingzhi gnawed on the chicken paw and said.
"Xuan Yi Sword!" Lin Dong was taken aback first, "Oops, Master gave Xuan Yi Sword to a young man surnamed Ye in Jiangnan. β
Several senior brothers looked at each other, thinking that Xuanyijian was in the hands of their little junior brother, so they discussed with their uncle to let the little junior brother fill the hole of the master, but they didn't expect the master to give the sword to others.
"Why did Master give the Xuanyi Sword to someone else?"
Subsequently, Lin Dong first told what happened in Tiangong Mountain.
"That's the one surnamed Ye!" Guo Yingzhi immediately patted the table and said. Because he is a big disciple, it is very likely that he will inherit the position of head of the family, so he has to quickly pull someone back.
"Yes, he can even teach his master, and it must be no problem to be the head of our Wudang!" Yin Tianqi agreed.
"What's the name of the one surnamed Ye?" asked the fourth Chen Youdao.
"Ye Fei. β
"Ye Fei, this name is so familiar. β
"It won't be the son-in-law of the Shen family in Jiangnan, the one who robbed Lu Xun's daughter-in-law. β
"It seems to be this name! Great, if this person becomes the head of our Wudang, when he sees Lu Xun's naΓ―ve boy or his master Zhao Youchuan in the future, he can laugh at him for robbing his daughter-in-law by our master. Yin Tianqi said.
"Little junior brother," Chen Youdao immediately got up, "After eating this meal, you will go down the mountain with me to Jiangnan, and capture the kid surnamed Ye to be the head of Wudang." β
"Hey, junior brother, don't worry, the Jiangnan Family Conference will be held soon, and then a few of our senior brothers will go to the Huajian faction to welcome the new leader!" Wang Feilu said.
Lin Dong first showed bitterness on his face, thinking that he had hurt Ye Fei miserably.
"Haqiu!" At this time, Ye Fei, who was far away in Shaoxing, south of the Yangtze River, sneezed. In Qiangxuan, which was across the garden from him, Shen Yu found Shen Xiaoqing.
