With Fang Zhongjin's clear whistle, the soldiers of the Divine Arm Battalion brought by Zhu Di pointed at Fang Zhongjin with arrows.

At the same time, the sound of a man's footsteps could be heard on the oppressive silence of the ice.

Zhu Di heard that Fang Zhongjin said that he invited the treasure box for him, so he waved his hand to let the soldiers of the Divine Arm Battalion calm down.

Sure enough, the footsteps kept approaching, and a tall figure appeared on the ice.

When he got closer, he could see that the figure had a bald head. In this extremely cold weather, he only wore monk's clothes and shoes, and seemed to be carrying a burden on his back.

He was tall and burly, with two thick black eyebrows like two brooms.

This person turned out to be the Shaolin monk Hong Ji!

Hongji himself is strong in martial arts, and he is tall and has long legs. In a few steps, he came to Fang Zhongjin's side.

Although Zhu Di has not seen Hong Ji with his own eyes, as one of the "magic stars", Zhu Di has long known his appearance and characteristics.

Now when I saw it, I guessed the identity of the person.

I heard Zhu Di groan: "The person who came is Master Hongji, a Shaolin monk?"

Hong Du clasped his hands together and said honestly: "Don't dare, the poor monk is Hong Ji." ”

Zhu Di asked again: "Are you the only one who comes?" Where is Abbot Chenghui at the moment?"

Hong Du said again: "Now the Shaolin abbot is already the junior brother of the poor monk Hong Du. The tutor is now in retreat in the monastery. ”

It's no wonder that Zhu Di didn't know that at this time, it turned out that when Ji Gang rushed back to the capital, the Shaolin abbot was still obscure.

But after Ji Gang left, Master Cheng Hui kept the oath he had made to the Buddha and handed over the position of abbot to the more popular Hongdu.

As for Hong Ji, who has higher martial arts, he doesn't feel that he is this material, and he has never coveted the identity of the abbot.

And before his junior brother was transferred, Hong Ji, who had no distractions, had already been ordered by his master to go to Huashan with three iron boxes on his back to find Fang Zhongjin.

Hong Ji believes in the Bodhisattva and believes that all beings are equal.

Therefore, although it is a long way from Shaolin to Wudang, this stubborn monk refuses to ride a horse, but only on foot.

By the time he finally came to Wudang, Fang Zhongjin had already followed the Jinyi Wei army for many days.

There are only four cow noses left in the sky over Wudang Mountain.

Only then did Hong Ji return from Wudang and head towards the capital. Naturally, he refused to ride a horse along the way, and relied on the iron footsteps of the great monk.

At the same time, the entanglement brought by him could never support Hong Ji from the capital to Shaolin, so he could only travel all the way, and his journey was even slower.

By the time Hong Ji finally arrived in the capital to see Fang Zhongjin, it was already winter.

Zhu Di was originally suspicious that the treasure box left by Taizu would be in Shaolin. It's a pity that I couldn't find the slightest clue.

Now there is a Shaolin monk who came to him with a treasure box, it is really a nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it.

Even Zhu Di, the son of heaven, was a little excited at this moment.

He took a deep breath and said, "Please also ask the senior monk to hand it over to me." ”

Fang Zhongjin interjected at this time: "Please also ask the emperor to come and get it in person." ”

Zhu Di rebuked angrily: "Bold!"

turned to lure Hong Ji and said: "Master Hong Ji, this is a royal treasure, please return it to its original owner."

After today, I will definitely make you the abbot of Shaolin!"

Hong Ji shook his head and said, "The position of abbot, the master has been passed to Hong Du." How can the emperor pass it on to me again?

As for this iron box, what the master said was Fang Gongzi's, so there will be no mistake. ”

He nailed his feet to the ice and did not move, and he had no intention of handing it over to Zhu Di at all.

At this time, Zhu Di was already angry. But he didn't have the courage to take it himself, and said in a calm voice: "Aren't you all afraid of ten thousand arrows piercing your hearts!"

Fang Zhongjin covered his palm on Hong Ji's burden and said, "The emperor's arrow has not yet been shot, so I can destroy all the things in the baggage." The emperor can give it a try, who is faster!"

Zhu Di hated this feeling of being coerced. But he really didn't have anything to do in front of him.

It was impossible for him to pick it up himself. Zhu Di suddenly shouted: "General Pan!"

In the Divine Arm Battalion, a man dressed as a military general shouted: "The last general!"

Zhu Di said again: "Go get it for me!"

General Napan shouted: "Order!"

Fang Zhongjin interrupted: "He is not qualified." ”

Zhu Di raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "Fang Zhongjin, don't you have to inch in!"

Fang Zhongjin suddenly kept Zhu Di beside him and said, "Let him come!"

Zhu Di turned his head and saw the fat figure behind him, it was his son Zhu Gaochi.

A thought of struggle rose in Zhu Di's heart. He really wanted to see the things in the tin box. I want to know what my eccentric father left to my nephew?

Is it because of this thought that his own son should be put at such a great risk?

When Zhu Di was making a difficult decision, Zhu Gaochi said gently: "Father, let the son go." ”

After that, without waiting for Zhu Di to object, he trembled and walked from the island to the ice.

Zhu Gaochi himself is a big fat man, plus his legs and feet are inconvenient. Walking on this frozen lake in the cold and snow is simply a slippery step.

More than a thousand eyes were fixed on the crown prince Zhu Gaochi. Although the way he walked was funny, no one dared to laugh out loud at this time.

Father Zhu Di was behind him, watching his son move forward step by step with apologetic eyes.

Time passed very slowly, and when Zhu Gaochi finally came to Fang Zhongjin and Hong Ji, he was already panting.

The prince stretched out a fat hand and said, "Please give me something." ”

Fang Zhongjin said with a slight smile: "Don't give it." ”

No one thought the joke was ridiculous. Zhu Gaochi's face didn't show much anger, but Zhu Di was already angry.

Then he was furious and said, "Even if you don't want a treasure, I will shoot you here today." ”

Fang Zhongjin smiled and said, "Really, the prince is in my hands!"

As soon as he finished saying this, Fang Zhongjin turned his wrist, but he detained the crown prince Zhu Gaochi.

Zhu Dixin said: "It's careless!"

He was so desperate for the treasure box that even his own son fell into the hands of the enemy.

Fang Zhongjin smiled and said, "The emperor in front of me identified me as the person behind the scenes. I was really taken aback.

In fact, I also have a behind-the-scenes person in mind. I'm afraid that saying it will surprise the emperor. ”

Zhu Di ignored his nonsense, and said eagerly: "If you release the prince, I will listen to you!"

Fang Zhongjin shook his head and said, "No." I won't let this treasure go when it's in my hands. ”

Zhu Di hurriedly said again: "You say, what do you want!"

What does he ask for when Fang Zhongjin. Just verbally satisfy him first and save his son.

Although he missed a great opportunity to kill him this time. There will always be a next time, Fang Zhongjin will still fall into his hands.
