Chapter 60: Discipleship
The battle to suppress bandits in the mountains caused heavy casualties. After Guan Dadong returned to Humen, he regretted that he did not listen to Tiangang's advice, which led to the death of Guan's father on the battlefield. And one of the murderers who killed him was the traitor Murong Kong, and the other was his rival Guo Yitian. Now, Murong Kong has been killed, and the only enemy is Guo Yitian. Guan Dadong's teeth itched with hatred, and he wanted to capture him alive and torture him to death. Only in this way can we relieve our anger.
After this war, the Yihezhai has suffered a great loss of vitality, not only more than 300 bandits have died, including the acting owner of the village, Han Fen has been killed by Guan Qianli, and the general of the Yihezhai has lost one member. Moreover, most of the buildings in Yihezhai were basically burned down, and they could not live in it, so presumably the bandits were not having a good time. In Guan Dadong's view, Bai Lang, the owner of Yihe Village, is a cynical and stubborn brave and unscrupulous person, and there is nothing to be afraid of.
Three days later, after arranging the funeral of Guan Qianli, due to the sharp reduction in personnel, Guan Dadong prepared to recruit troops. Because the prestige of Humen has not diminished back then, there are many enthusiastic applicants. However, Guan Dadong has experienced a hundred battles, and he can identify at a glance whether the applicant is suitable for martial arts. After seeing two or three hundred people, Guan Dadong kept shaking his head and sighing.
It wasn't until a middle-aged man with an old face appeared that Guan Dadong began to show a rare hint of surprise. The middle-aged man was holding a silver spear and looked murderous, but he was short, less than seven feet. Guan Dadong wanted to say: "Go!" But the middle-aged man's eyes were fixed on Guan Dadong, and there was an indescribable sense of oppression. Guan Dadong suddenly felt a sense of awe, pointed at the other party and asked, "What is your name?" ”
The short middle-aged man showed a confident look, and replied unhurriedly: "My name is Ding Shida, and I have two younger brothers, one Ding Shier and one Ding Shisi." ”
After hearing this, Guan Dadong looked pensive, stretched his face, and said disdainfully: "Who are you who killed Ding Shisan by the Demon Sect Leader Bai Lang?" I joined Humen to avenge my third brother. ”
"But what can you do to avenge your third brother? If you are a mediocre person, you should dispel this thought. Bai Lang's martial arts are a first-class master!" Guan Dadong said with a little contempt, and he was not optimistic about Ding Shida.
"But I don't think Bai Lang has anything outstanding, his personality is too elegant, he doesn't want to make progress, and he has obvious disadvantages in dealing with tough battles. And he can't even protect Han Fen, the person who loves him, so he can be regarded as a happy sword. I think he just can't support the mud on the wall, there's nothing to be afraid of!" Ding Shida's face was proud, with a majestic aura in his eyes that although thousands of people were going to do it.
"It's a mule or a horse, pull it out and slip away. Guan Dadong is full of expectations for the strength of the other party.
Walking into the ring of the martial arts competition, Ding Shida began to improvise. There were more than 20 Humen disciples in the audience, all of whom were eyeing each other. Ding Shi laughed for a long time: "All come up, those who are afraid of death will flash aside!"
Hearing Ding Shida's provocation, the disciples of the Humen had no reason not to clean up this guy who had no one in his sights. Ding Shida stood as steady as Mount Tai in the ring, and his majesty was fully revealed.
The ring was full of disciples, and they rushed into the ring together. Ding Shi punched each other with big fists and feet, and the disciples were either punched in the abdomen, or knocked to the ground by palms, or even kicked several feet away. After seven rounds, more than 20 disciples had no power to fight back.
But Ding Shida was not finished, he swept his legs and lifted the wounded on the ground into the air one by one. And with lightning speed, the fists and kicks were added, and all the wounded were knocked down under the ring. Some of the disciples were so badly injured that they vomited blood, and even broke several ribs.
Now Guan Dadong should be satisfied, he has found a chivalrous man with excellent martial arts, and he is also Bai Lang's sworn enemy, and he is not afraid of having two hearts. Thinking of this, Guan Dadong was really ecstatic. But since Father Guan left, Guan Dadong seems to have changed as a different person, his mood is invisible, and he looks more mature and sophisticated: "The martial arts foundation is not bad, welcome to join Humen." Now it is the time for Humen to employ people, and it needs talents like you. And your second and fourth brothers can join us in Humen, so that we can avenge your third brother together. ”
"That's exactly what I want, my second brother happens to be here right now, and his strength is very hidden. If they join Humen, the two of them will be more than enough to deal with Bai Lang. Merely...... Although the fourth brother is the strongest, he has a strange personality, and in order to pursue the highest level of martial arts, he went to Changbai Mountain alone to cultivate immortals. Ding Shida said with satisfaction. Guan Dadong was even more pleasantly surprised in his heart, and he couldn't imagine that there was someone more powerful than Ding Shida: "It's okay." Originally, becoming a Dharma protector had to go through layers of selection, but today, depending on your strength, it is completely in line with the qualifications of the Dharma protector. Then now I announce the appointment of you as the Great Dharma Protector and Ding Shi'er as the Second Dharma Protector. ”
Later, after Ding Shi's introduction, Guan Dadong learned the approximate location of Ding Shi's four cultivators, so he wanted to send someone to invite him out of the mountain. But Ding Shida's brows furrowed slightly, indicating that there was little hope. Because the fourth brother will not succumb to a person whose strength is lower than him, he will be laughed at by the people in the rivers and lakes.
These words undoubtedly broke the cold water for Guan Dadong, who believes that no one will not like gold. As long as he is lured by heavy money, he will definitely be able to be invited out of Changbai Mountain. So he secretly ordered his subordinates to find Ding Shisi's whereabouts.
Due to the burning down of the Yihezhai building, Bai Lang decided to start anew and establish a new sect in Suzhou City, called Longmen. This is intended to destroy Humen and establish a more ideal order in the rivers and lakes.
After the gantry is built, the building is tall and staggered. Bai Lang summoned the three bandit brothers and ordered them to go out to recruit troops.
However, the three bandit brothers are not fuel-efficient lamps, and they are handed over to their subordinates to take care of when they recruit troops, while their three brothers go to drink wine and eat meat. The subordinate is not clear, he does not have a pair of Bole eyes, and he can't identify who is Maxima.
At the end of the day, Longmen recruited some vulnerable groups, so that Bai Lang had a hard time. Bai Lang sat in the hall of the Dragon Gate, at a loss. At this time, Guo Yitian brought a lame old man, who looked like he was about sixty years old. Bai Lang looked disgusted, because more than 30 such people had been accepted today, and they were all blown away by him in the end.
"Brother Guo Xian, what are you doing here? Big brother has already said that he will not accept weak disciples!"
"Brother Bai, Li Yu is not an ordinary person!" Guo Yitian argued.
"I know that. He's really not an ordinary person, he's a cripple who came to eat mixed rice!"
Bai Lang's attitude was very arrogant, which made Guo Yitian a little angry. Guo Yitian thought about it, after all, he didn't know Li Yu's origin and skills, so it was natural to be angry.
Guo Yitian explained: "Li Yu's martial arts are very high! He is a rare all-round talent in civil and military affairs. ”
