Chapter Eighty-Six: The Virtuous Crowd Arrives

Early the next morning, before Xiao Han got up, he heard the sound of people outside the door, Xiao Han opened his eyes and saw that Duan Xiliu was already dressed and was looking at him with a smile. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Xiao Han turned over, put on his clothes, and said, "What's the matter?" Duan Xiliu said: "It's okay, everyone is in a hurry to go up the mountain, there are too many people, and they are afraid of blocking the road." Then he heard a knock on the door outside, Duan Xiliu went over to open the door, saw Zhao Guangyi and Zhao Chengzong standing outside the door together, and saw that the two were dressed neatly, Zhao Guangyi smiled and said, "Let's go too." The four of them went downstairs together, and saw that there was a mess below, and after a while they left the inn and curved up the mountain road.

This time, there were a large number of people going up the mountain, and the long mountain road was lined up for a mile or two. Seeing that everyone's eyes were full of doubts, Duan Xiliu explained that the Shaolin Temple had a rule that every thirty-six sects sent fifty people to participate in the conference, and the small sects watching the battle could only have a maximum of twenty people to attend the conference. Xiao Han silently calculated, there were 1,800 people from the thirty-six sects, plus 40 or 50 small sects and 1,000 people, plus more than 1,000 people from the three sects, there were more than 3,000 people attending a martial arts conference.

Zhao Guangyi and Zhao Chengzong were thrilled when they heard this, their faces changed color, and they didn't relax for a long time. Although 3,000 people are not comparable to the number of an army, it is also intimidating. Xiao Han said lightly: "These people just care about their own interests, but they have nothing to do with the imperial court, so you can rest assured." Zhao Guangyi smiled reluctantly: "That's right, the court won't be difficult for them." Zhao Chengzong followed: "As long as you don't participate in the rebellion, the court is still reasonable." Duan Xiliu glanced at Xiao Han with a complicated expression, Xiao Han was a little embarrassed, and comforted him: "Don't worry, I believe that Senior Brother Luo will be released by Master Xingzheng to meet us at that time." He deliberately changed the topic, and Duan Xiliu didn't want to say more, so he just nodded.

I saw that there were thousands of people gathered in the mountain road, and each sect was wearing the coats of its own sect, including black, white, green, yellow, and colorful, all kinds of clothes. Tall, short, fat, thin, men, women, and children, all of them are beautiful and ugly, holding all kinds of weapons in their hands, shouting, shouting, shouting, laughing, and marching.

When they arrived at the mountainside pavilion, everyone was surprised to find that the Shaolin Temple sent people to guard the mountain pass. Two yellow-shirted monks in their forties and fifties guarded the mountain, one on the left and one on the right, and behind each stood ten gray-shirted warrior monks with long sticks.

Everyone didn't dare to mess up anymore, and the heads of various factions took out invitations one after another, knowing that the Shaolin Temple was going to verify the mountain. Zhao Guangyi knew that the Shaolin Temple was heavily guarded, so Uncle Zhao and the others waited at the foot of the mountain. First, a group of young men in green shirts lined up at the front, led by a middle-aged man with a gloomy face. Duan Xiliu sighed "Huh" and said softly: "The Tang Sect in Sichuan, the head of the sect is named Tang Wenxing. Xiao Han stretched his neck and glanced at it a few times, and asked, "How many of the thirty-six factions can they rank?" Duan Xiliu thought for a long time and said, "Top ten." ”

At this time, the Tang Sect had already experienced the invitation, and fifty people went up the mountain in turn. The second team was dressed in white kaftan embroidered with a huge wave. The first one was in his forties, holding a harpoon in his hand, but he looked very elegant, and handed the invitation to the monk on the left. Duan Xiliu said to Xiao Han again: "This is Wu Yue's Baitao Gang, and the leader of the gang is Yuxiang." Xiao Han smiled and said, "It's a gang under the jurisdiction of your Tianshan faction. Duan Xiliu said with a smile: "Those things are all handled by the second master, and we never participate." ”

After Bai Tao's gang went up the mountain, there was another team of men in blue robes, the leader of whom was in his fifties, with a rough appearance and a ghost-headed knife in his hand. Duan Xiliu thought for a moment and said, "This is Li Ange, the leader of the Tang Yaksha Gang. Xiao Han listened to his introductions one by one, and was very surprised by Duan Xiliu's memory.

After an hour, it was finally Xiao Han's turn. Xiao Han took out the invitation again, and the monk on the left closed his hands after checking it, glanced at him, his eyes flashed, and a smile bloomed on his face: "The new sect has been added to the rivers and lakes, which is really a blessing for my martial arts." Then he stretched out his hands and said, "Master Xiao, please." Xiao Han waved to the three people behind him, and the four of them strode across the mountain pass, and the monk just smiled and nodded slightly, looking very polite.

There was a bend not far from the mountain pass, Xiao Han looked at the endless flow of people, and sighed: "If I knew this, I would have brought more people over, so I had a little momentum." Duan Xiliu said with a smile: "There are not many heroes, the four of us are enough." Zhao Chengzong looked left and right, as if he was looking for someone. Zhao Guangyi snorted and said, "Is it okay to be a little promising?" Zhao Chengzong blushed and retorted: "I'll take a look at it casually." The crowd burst out laughing.

The four of them laughed and laughed as they walked, and they were very happy. Suddenly, I heard a delicate voice behind me: "Little brother, can you make way for my sister?" Everyone turned back together, but saw a young woman dressed in a red dress looking at them with a smile on her face.

This woman is not inferior to Li Yueying, but she is a little more charming than her, and she looks a few years older than her, and she has a mature charm in it. Duan Xiliu only glanced at it, and then whispered to Xiao Han: "Qi Xinyi, the leader of the Great Shu Peach Blossom Sect." ”

Zhao Guangyi's eyes lit up, and his saliva almost flowed down. Zhao Chengzong gently pulled his sleeve, Zhao Guangyi's face turned red, and he immediately stood aside. Xiao Han is the head of the Wudang faction, nominally the master of the four, and immediately turned around and hugged his fists and said: "Xiao Han, the head of the Wudang faction, is fortunate to be the leader of the Peach Blossom Sect." ”

The women in red dresses behind Qi Xinyi laughed coquettishly when they heard this, and the sects that followed behind naturally stopped, but no one made a loud noise, which was very face-saving for these beautiful women. Qi Xinyi's eyes were like water, and she glanced at Xiao Han softly and said: "Little brother looks very cute, here's the matter, you and I have a good chat, I don't know if Master Xiao can give face?" ”

Qi Xinyi glanced at him again, giggled a few times, and then walked over with Yingying Yanyan. When passing by Xiao Han's side, Qi Xinyi's body suddenly crooked and almost fell, but Xiao Han hurriedly came to help. Qi Xinyi took advantage of the situation to fall on top of him, and the jade arm took advantage of the situation to wrap around his neck, and at the same time exhaled like an orchid, and whispered in Xiao Han's ear: "Thank you, brother, don't forget our agreement." ”

The gangs in front had already stopped, and the two gangs in front and behind were in an uproar at the same time, and the men in the rivers and lakes laughed, but Xiao Han was so ashamed that he wanted to jump off the cliff. Zhao Guangyi and Zhao Chengzong hid to the side, jealous and hateful, and their eyes were about to burst into flames.

Duan Xiliu lowered his head and hid to the side without speaking. The first time Xiao Han came into contact with a woman in person, he felt a blank in his mind, and he felt a softness in his neck, this feeling was too wonderful, if it weren't for everyone's eyes, he would be willing to stay like this for a long time.

When Xiao Han heard the uproar of everyone, he immediately let go of Qi Xinyi, and said with a red face: "Qi Sect Master be careful, the mountain road is slippery and easy to fall." The women of the Peach Blossom Sect laughed in unison: "Master Xiao is good at martial arts, and he will subdue the leader of my sect with one move." Hundreds of people laughed before and after, but they were as excited as watching a comedy.

Qi Xinyi stood still, her jade head shook gently, and the women were immediately silent. Qi Xinyi glanced at Xiao Han coquettishly, and said coquettishly, "Thank you for giving way." Xiao Han hurriedly said: "The master of the Qi faction is polite. The men in front laughed again. Qi Xinyi glanced at the front and suddenly shouted, "Zhu Gaoyang, are you dead?" ”

Then I heard a rough voice say: "Big sister, we also stopped to cooperate with you, if no one cheers and applauds, isn't it a waste of the big sister's effort?" The men laughed again, and immediately shut up after laughing, and turned around at the same time.

Qi Xinyi led the women back on the road, and when the women passed by Xiao Han, they pointed and pointed, until Xiao Han was so ashamed that he wanted to hide his head in the crotch of his pants. waited until they passed, and then another gang passed, and then slowly walked behind them.

Duan Xiliu sneered and said: "Brother Xiao is a good person, do you know who Qi Xinyi is?" Xiao Han said angrily: "Where do I know, didn't you say that she is from the Peach Blossom Sect?" Zhao Guangyi said: "Are all women in this sect?" Zhao Chengzong's eyes lit up and said: "All of them are young and beautiful, I really don't know where to find these women." ”

Duan Xiliu saw that they looked like pig brothers, and sneered: "If I tell you about her methods, you won't be able to laugh." Xiao Han hurriedly said: "You know a lot, don't tell us everything." Duan Xiliu didn't continue to say, just told them that Zhu Gaoyang was the head of the Wuyue Xuangui Sect, and then kept silent.

Xiao Han begged him for a few words, but when he insisted on not saying anything, he knew that he was angry, so he had to give up. However, Zhao Chengzong pestered him, and walked for more than a mile, seeing the mountain gate, Duan Xiliu really couldn't stand it, so he had to say while walking: "The reason why Qi Xinyi's Peach Blossom Sect is all women is because they are all hard-working people who have been rescued from the Qinglou. At that time, the founder of the Peach Blossom Sect was also a hard-working person, and sympathized with the tragic fate of these people, so he rescued them, formed a gang, and taught them martial arts. Qi Xinyi originally seemed to be a courtesan, offended the prefect's son, and was about to rob someone, but the senior killed the son, saved her and taught her all his kung fu, as if he passed the position of helper to her two years ago. ”

Xiao Hanqi said: "This is not very normal, where is it scary?" Duan Xiliu shook his head and said: "Following that senior to die of illness, Qi Xinyi was left unattended, and after burying the master, she took thirty disciples down the mountain, what do you guess she did?" Zhao Chengzong interjected: "I know, naturally I am going to rescue more women." Zhao Guangyi's face was gloomy, and he said, "Naturally, I went to kill the prefect." Duan Xiliu glanced at him, and then said: "That night, Qi Xinyi killed all thirty-seven people in the prefect's house, and chopped off all four limbs, and hung them on the four city walls in the southeast, northwest, and northwest of the city. The heads were lined up and placed in front of the yamen, scaring the people who got up early the next day half to death. Not only that, but all the old bustards in Qinglou were killed that night, and all of them were dismissed. ”

Xiao Han glanced at the fiery red from a distance and sighed: "Happy revenge, it is inevitable that he is not a real hero." Zhao Guangyi was so preoccupied that he bit his lip and didn't speak. Xiao Han glanced at him, afraid that he would attack Wulin because of this, and hurriedly explained: "Now that the Great Song Dynasty officials are benevolent, they will not be like those dog officials who arbitrarily bully the people like Dashu, and naturally there will be no such tragic things." ”

Zhao Guangyi's face was a little pale, but he still didn't speak. Zhao Chengzong said: "It's terrible, I don't dare to provoke it." Then he said, "It's here." Everyone looked up and saw the tall mountain gate of Shaolin Temple shining in the sun. On both sides of the gatehouse, there are eight yellow-shirted monks with their hands together to welcome the martial arts heroes up the mountain.
