The next day, Han Xuesi and Mo Cui were having breakfast when they heard nine bells ringing at the foot of the mountain.

The nine ringing bells are a signal for Bulao Peak to summon the disciples in front of the mountain, indicating that something big has happened.

Just like the last time, Han Xuesi asked the little fat man Mo Qi to ring the bell nine times, for him it was just to say hello to everyone, but for Immortal Peak and the disciples, it was undoubtedly a big deal, otherwise those disciples who heard the news for the first time would not have fallen off the tree and into the river.

Han Xuesi put down the bowl, looked at Mo Cui who was drinking porridge, and said with a smile: "Kite, why do you say the bell rings under the mountain?"

Mo Cui glanced at him and said indifferently: "Don't you know, do you still need to ask?"

Han Xuesi said with a hippie smile: "It seems that Madame and I want to go together, it's really heartfelt." ”

Mo Cui said angrily: "Han Jiugongzi, no, the four offerings, the bell is ringing at the bottom of the mountain, why don't you go to the old man's house soon?"

Han Xuesi looked stunned, went out with a smile, stood on the mountain road and shouted at the small house where he heard a hundred people: "One hundred, look at the excitement." ”

The little fat man Mo Qi walked out with a bowl and said, "Uncle Shi, Master went out early in the morning. ”

"Where did you go?"

"I don't know. ”

In the past two days, that kid has always gone out early and returned late, I don't know what he's tossing, but those eight annoying old guys have gone back to their respective homes to find their wives, and Bu Lao Feng has changed a new situation, there is nothing to worry about, let him go.

Han Xuesi didn't think much about it, swayed down the mountain, and went to the martial arts arena slowly.

The Great Offering stood at the edge of the martial arts arena, with a row of more than a dozen people standing behind him, and the disciples stood in the open space to the south, black and pressing.

Han Xuesi leaned on the tree with the bronze bell and nodded to the Great Offering from a distance.

The Great Offering nodded imperceptibly, looked at the disciples in the audience and said solemnly: "The bell has summoned you over, naturally there is something to announce, the eight elders are already high, and they have resigned from the position of elders together yesterday, the peak lord has thought about it all night, and has already decided on a new choice of elders, that is, the sixteen behind the old man." ”

The crowd immediately exploded, the eight elders quit together, and sixteen new elders appeared, and the disciples exchanged words and discussions.

The Great Offering continued: "You heard it right, there are sixteen new elders, and in the future, they will be responsible for the affairs of the Immortal Peak and the villages, and they will also be responsible for guiding the disciples to practice, and the new disciples will still be led by the four offerings to practice. ”

Han Xuesi was not interested in the changes of Immortal Peak at all, Miao Di was not small, but these sects were too small in his eyes, there was only intrigue, no conspiracy, and it was very boring.

The disciples dispersed quickly, and the big offering walked towards Han Xuesi and said with a smile: "Uncle, go drinking?"

"Kites are not allowed to drink. ”

The Great Offering smiled, "Drink less." ”

"Let's go. ”

Han Xuesi is not good at drinking, and occasionally drinks, knowing that the big offering has something to say, so he agreed.

It's still that tavern, the shopkeeper was dragged up from the bed early in the morning to drink, was lying in the bamboo chair napping, and was woken up again, just about to scold, saw that the person who came was Han Xuesi and the big offering, and immediately changed it to a smiling face, these two people are big people in the Ageless Peak, he can't afford to offend.

"The big worshipper and the uncle came here so early, do you want to drink?" said the shopkeeper with a smile.

The Great Offering said, "What's on it, what's the nonsense?"

There was a young man in the blacksmith shop next door who was striking iron bare-chested, working very hard.

After the two sat down, Han Xuesi said with a smile: "The big offering is too polite, it's good to say it directly, don't break the bank." ”

The big offering said: "The old man is poorer than the blacksmith shop, and there is not a copper plate, so this wine is naturally invited by my uncle." ”

Han Xuesi smiled, no longer polite, and said, "Is the Great Offering satisfied with the current Immortal Peak?"

The Great Offering solemn Rong said: "No matter how small the Immortal Peak is, it is also a cultivation sect, so it is natural to focus on cultivation. ”

The sect naturally needs to focus on cultivation, and it also needs talents who are better than the directors, and the peak master and the three worshippers of the back mountain are determined to let the eight elders in front of the mountain retreat, thinking that it is not just as simple as not being accustomed to them.

Han Xuesi asked, "Isn't the contradiction between the back mountain and the front of the mountain a day or two?"

Da Worship sighed, and then said: "That's not the case, those eight old guys are too selfish, and the disciples in their own village are going to the Immortal Peak in waves, and they are not allowed to go to the back mountain to guard the mountain. ”

Han Xuesi said: "What they did was so obvious, the peak master should have noticed it a long time ago, why has it been delayed until now, but it can really be endured." ”

The wine and food were served on the table, and the big offering took a sip of rice wine, and then said: "Uncle doesn't know, the eight elders are kind to the peak master, so they have been hesitating. ”

Han Xuesi knew that he was being used in this matter, but it was all voluntary, so he naturally didn't get angry, waved his hand and said, "Don't mention the past, let's talk about the future." ”

The big offering said with a smile: "The peak master is in retreat, the eldest son is injured, and the second son has gone to the back mountain, and I am afraid that the things in front of the mountain during this time will have to worry more about my uncle." ”

Sure enough, there was no good food, no good wine, Han Xuesi turned his head to look at Panxi under the sun, an old man wearing a hat was rowing a small boat to the east quickly, and from time to time a water crow came out of the water and landed on the bow of the boat, opening his big mouth and spitting out a live fish of different sizes.

Da Offering squinted his eyes and smiled: "This little thing must be difficult for my uncle, right?"

Han Xuesi said in a long tone: "Uncle, this matter violates the ancestral teachings of the Immortal Peak, and it cannot be helped. ”

The Great Offering also said in a lengthened tone: "Uncle, the ancestral training can be changed. ”

"No, I can't. Han Xuesi took a sip of wine and was resolute.

The big offering said: "Okay, but my uncle, as the fourth worship, can take some time to go to the back mountain to guide the disciples of the mountain guard to practice swords, right?" The Han family's sword technique is unpredictable, and I also ask my uncle to explain the subtleties. ”

"Can be considered. ”

Da Offering looked at Han Xuesi and said with a smile: "The old man doesn't understand, my uncle handed over the secret of the Han family's pressing box to Immortal Peak, what is the picture?"

Han Xuesi said lightly: "Just think of it as a dowry for Kite." ”

The hero was sad about the beauty pass, and the great elder believed it and nodded.

Han Xuesi said: "It won't be long before I will leave the Immortal Peak with the kite, and take a look at the great rivers and mountains of Kyushu together. Uncle, isn't this abacus loud?"

It's loud!

Rumble!

There was a loud noise from the blacksmith shop next door, and the two turned their heads to look, only to see that half of the blacksmith shop had collapsed, billowing black smoke was emitting, and a topless person came out of it, his upper body and face were full of black ash, and only two eyes could be seen, he quickly rushed over, stopped at the table, picked up the wine bowl in front of the big offering and drank it all in one gulp, and then drank all the wine in Han Xuesi's bowl.

Han Xuesi said unhappily: "Hearing a hundred people, what are you doing?"

It was Wen Ren Bai, he opened his mouth to show a mouthful of white teeth, if there was no black ash on his face at this moment, he would definitely have a surprised expression, and said, "Brother Jiu, can you recognize this?"

Han Xuesi said: "Don't say this, even if you burn to ashes, you can recognize it at a glance, and you don't need to look at it a second time, what are you doing?"

Wen Ren Bai said: "Refining the knife, I added a true yuan to the furnace, who knows that this will be it." ”

Da Worship stood up, turned his head to look at the thick black smoke coming out of the blacksmith shop, and said with a smile: "The true yuan of Wenren Gongzi is also too domineering. ”

A neighing sound came, drawing the attention of the three of them.

Xie Sansheng tied his horse to a tree on the side of the road, walked over to the tavern, and saluted respectfully: "I have seen two sons." ”

Wen Ren said in surprise: "Third Brother Xie, can you recognize me too?"

Xie Sanxing said with a smile: "How can the light of Wenren Gongzi be covered by a little black ash?"

Han Xuesi sneered, looked at the bloated Xie Sansheng and asked, "Third Brother Xie came on horseback, there must be something urgent?"

Xie Sansheng glanced at the big offering, lowered his head and coughed, and only said after hearing Han Xuesi say that it was okay: "There is news from Lin'an, the Emperor of Eastern Wu has sent someone to Miaodi to announce the decree, and the four sects have been rewarded with a large number of sects, and the four heads of the sects have been hereditary and replaced, and they have received a piece of Miao Land for generations. ”

Han Xuesi motioned for everyone to sit down, poured a glass of wine and took a sip, thought for a while, and then said, "I don't know if it's the Emperor of Eastern Wu or the Qin Xiangye." ”

Wen Ren 100 said: "What is the difference? They all have a share in killing the four senior brothers." ”

The Great Offering said with a serious face: "It seems that I am going to ask the peak master to retreat in advance." ”

Han Xuesi looked at Xie Sansheng and said, "Third Brother Xie, what do you think of the big people in Lin'an City?"

On the way here, Xie Sanxing kept thinking about this problem and said, "The little one can't figure it out. ”

Wen Ren 100 followed and said, "I can't figure it out either." ”

The Great Offering shook his head.

Han Xuesi said: "It's not too early or too late, the Eastern Wu Imperial Court sent someone to announce the decree at this time, is it just for this son." ”

Wen Ren Bai said: "What are you afraid of? Starling is still in Miaodi, and it is not enough to see any master from the Eastern Wu Imperial Court." ”

Han Xuesi said: "It's not that I'm worried about this. Could it be that Dongwu really planned to make a move against Nanzhao and Dayu, leaving Miao Di to make a stumbling block in the back, and first take some benefits out to appease. ”

Xie Sansheng said: "Dongwu and the Demon Domain negotiated peace, there is no war in the north, at this time, the two southwestern countries are open, it is reasonable, when the Dongwu Navy Division and the Deshun army are divided into two ways to move west, the chance of victory is naturally greater." ”

Han Xuesi asked, "Who is the person who made the decree?"

Xie Sansheng said: "Wu Yiji. ”

Wen Ren Bai said: "It's him again, is he just in a hurry to die?"

Han Xuesi drank a glass of wine and said, "Could it be that the Emperor of Eastern Wu wants to watch the civil strife in Miaodi?"

The big offering said: "Although the four sects of Miaodi have constant friction, they will not give birth to chaos for outsiders to take advantage of. ”

Xie Sansheng frowned, wanting to say something, he glanced at Han Xuesi, but he still didn't say it after all.

Wen Ren was too lazy to think about it, and said: "What is there to think, the person who comes is not good at fighting." ”

After chatting for a while, Xie Sansheng said goodbye and left, and Wen Ren jumped into the panxi to take a bath.

Han Xuesi and the Great Offering walked back to the Immortal Peak, and when they parted at the foot of the mountain, Han Xuesi said: "The Great Offering, send someone to keep an eye on the stockade of the eight elders in case of accidents. ”

The Great Offering nodded solemnly, no longer as relaxed as in the tavern, after all, he had encountered a big event.
