Chapter 512
The purple-robed man was stunned for a moment and said, "Daoist Miao's words are a little strange, and Shi doesn't understand it very well. ”
Only then did the Taoist priest come back to his senses and said to the purple-robed man: "Master Shi, because you have important matters, you did not participate in the meeting of Hutouyan Shajiabao this time, but you don't know that there are several great masters in the rivers and lakes. Among them, there was a swordsman surnamed Li, who was only in his twenties, and he actually defeated Tang He, the head of the Xingyuan Dart Bureau, and I heard that Yun Feiyang, the deputy commander of Jinyiwei, also died at the hands of this person. I just saw the gray-clothed man on the side of the road, and from the point of view of his figure, he looked a little similar to that person. It's just that this surnamed Li has a great reputation, and he is already a great figure in the rivers and lakes, and I heard that he went together with Liu Yong, the star-picking swordsman of the Huashan faction, and other masters, so it stands to reason that he shouldn't appear in Luoyang......"
The purple-robed man was Shi Nianhao, the head of the Shi family's knife. In the mansion, he heard Shi Nianyang, Peng Yuanxi and others report in a panic, saying that his eldest son Shi Tianbao was attacked outside the Shengjun Temple of Emperor Guan, and more than 20 Shi Jiadao disciples, including Shi Tianbao, were all wiped out.
Shi Nianhao was shocked, and sent a doorman to the Yamen of the Luoyang Prefect to report to the official, begging the Han Prefect to send a capable arrest to arrest the murderer quickly. He brought his cronies and disciples, led by Shi Nianyang, Peng Yuanxi and others, and rushed to the Shengjun Temple of Emperor Guan. At that time, Miao Jian, the master of Luoyang Wuyun Mountain, happened to be a guest in Shifu, and when he heard that Shi Dagongzi was killed, he also volunteered to go with Shi Nianhao. Xiaoyaoguan is a major sect near Luoyang, the master Miao Jian's martial arts are not weak, this time he went to the capital to participate in the battle of Shajiabao, and passed by Luoyang City when he returned, so he came to meet Shi Nianhao.
Shi Nianhao was saddened by the death of his eldest son, and originally didn't want outsiders to get involved in this matter. But after thinking about it, although Shi Nianyang and Peng Yuanxi didn't say it explicitly, they looked at the situation and were the hands of Lei Fist. In the battle of Cherry Ditch, Lei Boxing Gate was defeated, and then the two sides had many dirty battles, and Shi Jiadao gradually gained the upper hand, squeezing most of the power of Lei Boxing Gate out of Luoyang City. It's just that although Lei Fist Gate was defeated, he has always been unconvinced. In recent years, he has become good with the Songshan faction and has always wanted to make a comeback. Eight years ago, the former head of Lei Boxing Gate suddenly fell ill and died, and Yang Ziqiao, who took over the position of head of Lei Boxing Gate, was not unknown in Lei Boxing Gate before, but he was born to be the new head of Lei Boxing Gate.
It is rumored in the rivers and lakes that the former head of Lei Fist Gate died violently overnight, and he did not leave a legacy to who would take over the position of head of the house. According to the practice of the Thunder Fist Gate, it is necessary to decide which person will take over the position of head with martial arts. The old master had nineteen disciples, all of whom were strong in martial arts, especially the two disciples who ranked third and fifth were particularly outstanding, and everyone in the sect thought that the position of the head would inevitably fall into the hands of these two people. Who knew that when Lei Boxing Sect held a conference in Longmen, Yang Ziqiao, the seventeenth disciple of the old master, showed his might, defeating eleven senior brothers in a row, and no one dared to challenge him, so Yang Ziqiao took over as the leader.
After Yang Ziqiao became the leader, the Lei Fist Gate was ready to move, constantly encroaching on the territory of the Shi Family Knife. Like the White Horse Temple in the east of Luoyang City, it was originally in charge of Shi Jiadao. It's just that Lei Fist is eyeing this territory and constantly making trouble. Although Shi Jiadao tried his best to defend the White Horse Temple, the area east of the White Horse Temple had been completely controlled by Lei Fist, and he actually suffered a big loss. In recent years, Lei Boxing has also squeezed into Luoyang City, opened several pawnshops and taverns in the city, and has a great tendency to make a comeback.
Shi Nianhao knew that Shi Jiadao and Lei Fist were mortal enemies, but they were just hindered by the Shaolin Temple and the Songshan faction to make peace, and barely maintained a situation of no war and no peace. It's just that once the situation changes, the two sides will eventually have a fight. After Shi Nianhao took over as the head of the house, he did not dare to be negligent every day, introducing Shaolin Temple as a strong reinforcement, and urging his disciples to practice martial arts hard to prevent the sneak attack of Thunder Boxing. He did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to fight the government to suppress the Thunder Fist Gate. Fortunately, thanks to his efforts, Shi Jiadao was able to gain a foothold in Luoyang City, and the Thunder Fist Gate was not allowed to take a step beyond the Thunder Pool.
After the news of Yan Wuji's challenge to Sha Yiming spread all over the rivers and lakes, Shi Nianhao also had the idea of going to watch. It's just that after thinking about it, if he leaves Luoyang, Lei Fist Sect will take the opportunity to attack in a big way, but I am afraid that the Shi Jiadao disciples who stayed behind are not the opponents of Thunder Fist Sect. It was to endure his curiosity and sit in Luoyang City without leaving. In the past few days, there have been rivers and lakes passing through Luoyang on the same road, each returning to its own faction. Shi Jiadao is the largest gang in Luoyang City, and has contacts with various gangs in the rivers and lakes. When the leaders of these gangs pass through Luoyang, they will go to Shifu to meet Shi Nianhao.
Shi Nianhao took the opportunity to inquire about the news of the battle of Shajiabao, but these people said everything. Some people say that the battle of Shajiabao is a big conspiracy, and some people are suspicious, provoking infighting among the various martial arts factions, and the two sides are almost fighting. Fortunately, the imperial court got the news and sent a large army to Hutouyan to suppress it, so as not to cause a catastrophe. Some said that Dongchang and Jinyiwei wanted to annihilate the major gangs in Wulin, and pretended that Yan Wuji wanted to fight with Sha Yiming, attracting the major gangs to Hutou Rock. The ambush of the East Factory is exhausted, and it is expected to annihilate the major gangs in one fell swoop. Fortunately, the ministers of the imperial court were like torches, detected the conspiracy of Dongchang, and sent troops to separate the two sides, and the major gangs in the martial arts escaped this difficulty. Some people also say that the beggar gang wants to become the number one gang in the world again, and the gang leader Deng Yao is even more delusional, and he wants to be the emperor, so he deceived the gangs to Hutouyan, and wanted to hold a martial arts conference to force the gangs to recognize the status of the first gang in the world. As a result, the imperial court also learned the news and sent a large army to suppress it. There was a scuffle between the two sides, and the beggars were wiped out. The Taishan faction that rushed to Hutou Rock to help the fist also suffered heavy losses, and the five elders of Taishan also had infighting. What's even more bizarre is that the Qiu gang leader of the Yunnan Horse Gang patted his chest and said to Shi Nianhao that Sha Yiming and Yan Wuji have both cultivated into half-immortal bodies. When the two fought, they didn't use martial arts tricks at all, but sacrificed flying swords and fought in the air. Later, that Yan Wuji turned into a giant snake, and Sha Yiming turned into a fierce tiger, and started a fight under the tiger head rock. In the end, Sha Yiming made a high move, and bit the giant snake that Yan Wuji had changed to death.
The more Qiu Gang Leader talked, the more bizarre it became, and in the end he didn't know where he went. Hearing this, Shi Nianhao's head was as big as a fight, and he secretly scolded Gang Leader Qiu in his heart for being a fool.
He didn't know that it was just some third- and fourth-rate small gangs and factions in the rivers and lakes who came to meet him. Led by Liu Yong, Li Qiufeng and others, Qunhao fought with the five military camps at the foot of Hutou Rock, and then rushed into the valley and hid in the cave under Hutou Rock. During the whole process, these small gangs and factions were just mixed in with the group of heroes, and did not fight with the officers and soldiers. Most of the things have only been heard, not seen. When Shi Nianhao asked, he talked nonsense. In comparison, the scene when the Qiu gang leader crowded into the crowd to watch the movie and saw the fierce battle between Tiger Ah Er and the white snake sounded ridiculous because his words sounded ridiculous, but they were a little closer to the truth.
Shi Nianhao has received more than a dozen groups of martial arts gangs passing through Luoyang City in the past few days, and the things these people are talking about are bizarre, and some of them are simply absurd. The more Shi Nianhao listened, the more confused he became, but he couldn't offend these people, so he had to listen hard, and he had to send some coils when he left. However, so many gangs appeared in Luoyang City, but he was extremely nervous in his heart, for fear that Lei Fist Sect would take the opportunity to collude with some evil demons and outsiders to attack the Shi family's knife, and strictly ordered his disciples to take strict precautions. Yesterday, he heard that a mysterious master appeared in Cuiyun Peak, so he sent people to investigate, but one of them disappeared mysteriously. The other two stayed at the Tianyi Inn in the west of the city. Shi Nianhao sent his brother Shi Nianyang to Tianyi Inn to investigate the origin of these two people, Shi Nianyang came back to report that these two people are surnamed Yu, they are a master and a servant, from Jiangsu, this time they are to Xiuwu County to take office, passing through Luoyang. That person is just a small official who serves as a sesame mung bean in the county, and has nothing to do with Lei Fist.
After Shi Nianhao listened, he was relieved. Unexpectedly, a disciple would soon come to report, saying that Wei Gan of the Lei Fist Sect personally went to the Tianyi Inn and sent wine and food to the master and servant surnamed Yu. After Shi Nianhao heard this, he secretly thought in his heart that the power of the Thunder Fist Gate was originally in the west of Luoyang City, and a few years ago, the Shi family knife forced the four halls of the Thunder Fist Gate out of Luoyang, but in recent years, it has made a comeback. Lei Fist Gate has been entrenched in the west of the city for many years, and this time, Wei Qian, Yang Ziqiao's favorite fourth disciple, personally gave a gift to such a petty official as County Cheng, which was a blatant demonstration to Shi Jiadao.
Thinking of this, Shi Nianhao called Shi Nianyang over and instructed him to send wine and food to the master and servant surnamed Yu early tomorrow morning, in short, he couldn't fall behind the Lei Fist Gate. Although most of them don't need this petty official surnamed Yu, but the mountains don't turn around, no one knows what will happen in the future, and Lei Fist Men must not be allowed to take the lead.
That night, the head of the Luoyang Mansion came to visit in person, saying that a Han tomb in the north of the city was stolen and excavated, and the Yamen sent someone to arrest him. The prefect of Han sent him to ask Shi Jiadao for help, and asked Shi Nianhao to send a master of Shi Jiadao to help capture the suspect. Shi Nianhao has a close relationship with the Han Governor's Mansion, so naturally he will not refuse the Han Governor's request. I thought that I was just a tomb robber, and my martial arts skills would definitely not be high. It just so happens that the eldest son Shi Tianbao has nothing to do in the house, so he might as well ask him to take someone to arrest the suspect, first, he can accumulate experience, and second, he can take the opportunity to make a name for himself and take over the position of head in the future, and others are not easy to say. Shi Tianbao relied on Shi Nianhao's name, and he was arrogant in Luoyang City, and he didn't take the people in the rivers and lakes in his eyes at all. After listening to Shi Nianhao's instructions, he left Shifu with more than 20 disciples of Shi Jiadao and went straight to the south of the city to arrest people.
It's just that after Shi Tianbao left, Shi Nianhao was always uneasy, so he sent Shi Nianyang to take someone out of the house to respond. At this time, someone happened to come to report, and Miao Jian, the master of Wuyun Mountain, came to visit. Shi Nianhao didn't dare to slack off, and personally welcomed him out of the house, and the two exchanged a few words, only then did he know that Miao Jian participated in the battle of Shajiabao and had just returned to Luoyang from the capital. Shi Nianhao welcomed Miao Jian into the house, put fragrant tea on the table, and was about to ask Miao Jian in detail about the truth of the battle of Shajiabao, but Shi Nianyang broke into the hall in a hurry, only saying that Shi Tianbao took more than 20 people to an ambush outside the Shengjun Temple of Emperor Guan, and all of them were killed.
Rao is Shi Nianhao is a martial arts hero, and suddenly heard that his eldest son was attacked and killed, but he was also shocked, and immediately took people out of the house in a hurry to check outside the city. Along the way, he only cared about galloping on the horse, and did not talk to Miao Jian. At this time, when I heard Miao Jian talk about the suspicious whereabouts of the passer-by, I was also suspicious in my heart, and secretly thought: "If what Miao Dao Chang said is true, this person must be an extremely powerful martial arts master." He suddenly appeared outside Luoyang City, could it be that Tianbao was killed by him?"
