Chapter 26 (18)
Li Yijie jumped up in surprise and shouted: "It's bad, it's bad, I have to rush to Shaolin Temple immediately!" He opened the door suddenly, only then did he remember to explain to Nangong Xue, and made a long story as short as possible, and said: "We underestimated Jiang Yanchen too much, and originally thought that as soon as he heard the news, he would definitely go to Hetuala to claim his life, so I concentrated most of my troops here, but who knew that he would find his own way and take this opportunity to go to Shaolin Temple to lose his heart! Xue'er, you quickly order, order half of the soldiers and horses to go with me, and the other half stay on standby." ”
Nangong Xue said: "You just believe in the messenger like that? what if...... This is a trap, so what should I do?" Li Yijie said: "It's a trap, and it can only be a trap set by Jiang Yanchen himself, I'm afraid I can't find him, since I have the opportunity to go head-to-head, it's Longtan Tiger's Den, and I want to break through! Xue'er, you understand my temperament." Nangong Xue said: "I understand you." But don't worry too much, Master Tongzen is strong in martial arts, and he will be fine. ”
Li Yijie said: "I'm just afraid that he will play conspiracy and tricks, the master is kind-hearted and doesn't know how to guard against Xiaoxiao...... In any case, the loss of heart cannot fall into his hands. Nangong Xue nodded, and the two met their eyes, and they already had a heart-to-heart connection. Rushed out of the room, went their separate ways, and did not hesitate.
After that, Li Yijie hurried to Songshan, Nangong Xue left to explain to the heroes, sure enough, the previous worries were not groundless, everyone saw that the search for their lives was imminent, lest they would eat alone for others, and it would not be easy to get it back, so they were unwilling to leave at this juncture.
Nangong Xue tried her best to explain the stakes, how to focus on the overall situation, and how the decent Demon Sect was on the same page, but she still only managed to pull a few people. Thinking that he often thinks about sharing his worries with his senior brother, but now he can't even do this little thing, he is full of grievances and unwillingness, and he only wants to shed tears when he is sad.
In the end, it was Lu Qian who stepped forward, pretending to be tempted, and said that he was in Shaolin Temple, which was also one of the seven treasures, and was on par with asking for his life. At this time, 1,800 people gathered around Hetuala, waiting with great antiquity, even if the treasure was really dug up, everyone started fighting, and those with lower martial arts skills were kicked out of the field early, only beating their chests and feet to give a witness to the victors. However, there is only one treasure, and it can only be decided by one shot, but there is no question of whether you get a piece of the pie or not, why do you bother to die here to join in the fun? It is better to take advantage of the fact that there are fewer people going to the Shaolin Temple, there are fewer opponents, and if the luck is better, it is not impossible to pocket the treasure.
Everyone here is in the martial arts for half their lives, they are very shrewd about the gains and losses, and they are unwilling to suffer a small loss. The few diggers left did not get out of the ground, and some did not throw their tools and did not make this trip. The few slower people who want to stay in Hetuara are fewer, and their chances are much greater. Both sides felt that the other party had suffered a loss, and secretly laughed in their hearts.
On the way, Nangong Xue was puzzled by this phenomenon, and Lu Qian walked side by side with her, saying, "Nothing strange, Xue'er." Everyone in the world is greedy for fame and fortune, as long as you find his weakness and lobby a little, you can pinch him to death. People like you and Li Yijie who are dedicated to the public can only be said to be too stupid. Nangong Xue sneered: "I only laugh at this group of people who claim to be decent, but they act so carefully. ”
Lu Qian said: "It's normal, if it weren't for his own interests, if you look at it again, just rely on Li Yijie's words, but there is someone who will come to dig vigorously for him? He really thinks that he is the leader of the martial arts alliance with so much prestige? He said that if he was looking for the Seven Evil Treasures, we would obediently look for them, but after finding them, we would not give it to him, but keep it ourselves." Now there are far from saints who are willing to sacrifice everything for the sake of justice and justice, and if you tell them those great truths, you are playing the harp to the cow. ”
Nangong Xue snorted coldly: "What do you want the Seven Evil Treasures for? Just to get the world? How is that different from the purpose of the Demon Sect?"
Lu Qian said: "It's no different, Xue'er, you should look at these things as soon as possible, even if you don't want to go along with them, you have to learn to open one eye and close one eye." If everyone in the world is a thief, they will regard the thief as a thief, but they will be a good person as a bandit. Have you ever heard an allusion? In the past, there was a country with water in the middle of the country, and it was called 'Wild Spring'. The people of the country drink this water, and all of them are crazy, but the king of the country draws through the well, and he is unharmed. The people of the country are not crazy, but the king is not crazy. So they conspired to govern the country together, treat their madness, and fire wormwood injections and medicines. The lord of the country was overwhelmed by the suffering, so he went to the spring, drank water, and went crazy after drinking. The size of the monarch and the minister, his madness is like one, and the people of the country are happy. This says ......"
Nangong Xue smiled coldly and said, "You don't have to explain, I've heard this story." But what? You expect me to go crazy with you, don't you?" Lu Qian said: "Follow the customs of the locals, in this situation, a sober person is more painful than a madman. But one thing you said is wrong, I'm not crazy, it's just that I'm pretending to be crazy and stupid on the surface, and I'm actually playing with this group of crazy people, and if I let them do it, they have to pretend to be ugly to make me happy. ”
Nangong Xue said: "I know that you are swaggering and deceiving with this mouth, so you have climbed all the way up and have today's status." As he spoke, he shouted, "Drive!" The white horse ran out from afar, leaving Lu Qian and everyone behind. Lu Qian smiled and said to himself: "Don't say it so ugly, this is not called swagger, it should be called 'heart attacking'." ”
Nangong Xue galloped non-stop, and caught up with Li Yijie at the foot of Shaomu Mountain. Li Yijie saw that she was dusty, his face was a little haggard, and there was deep tiredness between his eyebrows and eyes. I don't know if she was cold because of the current situation in the world, but she was in a hurry, so she exhausted her physical strength, and cared for a few words, and it was not good to leave her at this time, so she walked forward on the same road.
This section of the journey is not long, and soon the mountain gate of Shaolin Temple is in sight. Li Yijie couldn't wait in his heart, so he only hugged his fist at the disciple guarding the door, and was about to pull Nangong Xue inward.
Those disciples were guarding the door outside, and they had been exposed to the sun and rain for many years, and they were already dissatisfied, and when they saw Li Yijie and the others treating themselves as nothing, they couldn't swallow this breath. The two disciples took a step forward at the same time, and the short sticks overlapped in front of them to block the way, and shouted: "Stop! Who allowed you to enter? Why do you talk to yourself? Is the Shaolin Temple a place for you to spread wild? Is there any rule?"
Li Yijie thought to himself that it was indeed his own rudeness. He didn't want to rely on his identity as the leader of the martial arts alliance to deceive people, and besides, seeing that those people were still calm and relaxed, and he wanted to come to the temple and not yet changed, while glad that he was finally in front, he arched his hand and said: "Please worship the master of the upper abbot, just say that Li Yijie, a disciple of the Xiahua Mountain faction, and Nangong Xue have something to ask to see." The matter is urgent, do not delay, and ask a few little masters to be accommodating, and it will be convenient for you. ”
He deliberately concealed his high-level identity, and he didn't want to be arrogant just now. Otherwise, with his status in the martial arts, there was no need to be so humble to a few gatekeeper disciples.
When the disciples saw that he was arrogant, they scolded him for being rude, and when they saw him bow their heads and plead, they were praised and arrogant, and they pulled up their official tones and shouted: "Bold, who is our abbot, can you see him if you say it?"
Li Yijie frowned and said, "This matter can be closely related to your faction, and it should be interviewed with the abbot master...... I have come to remind the master to take good care of the ...... in the temple Something, don't snatch it for thieves, scourge martial arts. The disciple shouted, "What is it? What thief? Which guy dares to come to Shaolin Temple to break ground? I think you two ghosts are more like thieves!"
Li Yijie couldn't help but smile bitterly, recalling that the rhetoric of "reminding you to take a good look at something" was indeed like a threat used by a robber who was superior to others before he made a move.
I also want to sacrifice the shadow sect in the past, which door to target, often a letter to send, neither afraid that they will abandon the village and flee, nor afraid that they will ask for help, a "let you be prepared, it is not our opponent" posture, sure enough, within a few years, a good karma has been done, and no one who received the "urging letter" can survive. The world is impermanent, but now the Demon Sect Leader can only hide and hide, can this be called a thirty-year feng shui rotation?
Nangong Xue said coldly: "Several masters are monks, how can their horizons still be as narrow as ordinary people? This is really disappointing. If you let that devil enter the Shaolin Temple, will you still be polite to you? As soon as you get your hands on it, you will immediately kill the chickens and dogs in the temple. We kindly rushed to remind you that if you don't appreciate it, your mouth will not be clean, but you have committed the 'no evil words' in the Buddhist precepts, right?"
The disciple said: "In the quiet place of Buddhism, where do you get turbidity like chickens and dogs?"
Another disciple said: "I don't see words, I don't see words, hypocrisy and exaggeration, and I cover up with words, all of which are lies." Although you are not a disciple of this temple, but the Shaolin Temple is good, but you said that you are going to encounter a disaster, and the alarmist words are unprovoked, and your heart can be punished. We can't control that much, the abbot has been in retreat for a long time, and there are no outsiders, and several uncles have not instructed us to let you into the temple, so you can't go in. Don't say it's you, it's useless even if the king of heaven and Lao Tzu comes. Now you are kind-hearted and ask you to leave, and if you don't know each other again, don't blame us for being polite. As he spoke, he turned the short stick in his hand in a circle, whirring in the wind, and his face was fierce.
Li Yijie argued: "You said that we are thieves for no reason, and you haven't seen what you say, that is a violation of the 'false speech precept', isn't it?"
Nangong Xue said coldly: "Enough, senior brother, a foolish person, it is useless to talk to him more." Pulling out the sword of "Cangquan Dragon Yin", a white light was refracted under the sun, dazzling people's eyes, and with a flip of the wrist, the tip of the sword waved horizontally in front of several disciples guarding the door, pointing straight to the center, and said sharply: "Don't talk nonsense, the girl doesn't have time to waste here! Today you agree that we will also enter, if you don't agree, we must also enter." Let me ask again, if you don't use force, you will not give way, will you?"
When several disciples saw this kind of sword at first sight, their hearts were all terrified, and one of them took the lead and shouted: "Okay, the thief is angry and angry, and he wants to expose his true face?
Nangong Xue smiled slightly and said, "Everyone can say this, but you can't." Just because you are a monk and have a vegetarian diet, I have also deceived you. With a flicker, the figure had launched an offensive against the person in front of him. The man hurriedly raised his short stick to meet the attack, and shouted: "I can't catch you thief, I have been in Shaolin Temple for the past few years, even if I have been in vain!"
After trying a few tricks, Nangong Xue found that his internal strength was mediocre, but he relied on brute force, and he didn't practice Shaolin kung fu very well. The man was self-aware, knowing that he was no match for her, and hurriedly beckoned someone next to him to help.
Li Yijie shouted: "Xue'er, this is not big, right? There is any misunderstanding, everyone will make it clear, that is, ......" Seeing Nangong Xue blindly fighting fast, he didn't look at him. I thought that these disciples were so stubborn that it would be difficult to convince them for a while, and the only way to do this was to explain with a sword. But I always feel that this is too domineering, which inevitably hurts the harmony with the Shaolin faction, and I don't know where she learned this kind of "just say it" style.
However, if I don't offend anyone, people will come to attack me, and the other three disciples will prevent him from joining forces with Nangong Xue, and they will rush up and surround him first, and all the short sticks will fall towards him. Li Yijie had no choice but to raise his sword to face the battle. I didn't think that I hadn't faced the devil yet, but I started with a few little disciples guarding the door first, which I never dreamed of before, and I really felt sad for a while.
