Hu Yunzhao watched a few people talking, struggled to stand up straight, and said in a higher voice: "What I said is absolutely true, Brother Xiao must not take it lightly, these people must have colluded with Da Liao, Brother Xiao slaughtered their Zhuangzi, there will be crazy revenge in the future, Brother Xiao must be on guard." ”

Xiao Han changed his face and said: "I'm really not afraid of their Liao dogs, they are also raised by their parents, and they are not more than us Han people, and they will also die if they are chopped with a knife and axe." I can slaughter his Zhuangzi today, and I will be able to destroy Da Liao tomorrow. ”

Although these words are heroic, they are a bit big, and everyone is silent, and no one believes them at all. Xiao Han was speechless for a while, and he was also a little embarrassed, and hurriedly changed the topic: "Since there is collusion with Da Liao, why didn't they kill the four of you, but imprisoned them in the underground palace?"

Hu Yunzhao said embarrassedly: "I don't understand this either, presumably they want to imprison me and use it to threaten the sect leader." Xiao Han asked, "How could the sect leader provoke them, and were you forced by them to flee to the Central Plains?"

Hu Yunzhao shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Brother Xiao asked like this, where can I tell you the answer?" The sect leader has always acted alone, and I don't understand when her old man offended the White Lotus Sect, why would they chase after us?"

Li Yueying snorted: "No, if you want to chase you and don't let go, why would you chase and kill Xiao Han?" Xiao Han was suddenly shocked, nodded heavily, and said: "Yes, if the White Lotus Sect has an enmity with you, why would it be difficult for me?" and then laughed dumbly: "I'm confused, there is naturally the credit of Shi Ergongzi here." ”

Everyone changed their faces together, Li Yueying tilted her head and said, "Isn't Shi Chuyang a member of the Divine Sect? Did he also join the cult?" Murong Qiuyu glanced at Chai Xinyue, and when she saw that her face had changed, she hurriedly and softly changed the topic: "Now let's rest first, everyone is tired after a day's work, and they are all tired." ”

Chai Xinyue glanced at her gratefully, and Xiao Han nodded approvingly: "No matter what White Lotus Sect Black Lotus Sect is, sleeping is the most important thing." They all looked at each other and laughed, and they went away to rest.

There was nothing to do one night, and the next morning after getting up and having dinner, the disciples of the three halls packed up and stopped, and everyone reassembled. Xiao Han saw Li Yueying bring Murong Qiuyu and Chai Xinyue over, and Hu Yunzhao's master and servant also recovered some vitality, and helped each other to come over to greet him.

Xing Anping and Jin Yushu followed, and most of them suffered skin injuries, which were fine. Together with Chu Tianshu and Guan Xiangming, all the Wudang factions arrived and waited for Xiao Han's order together.

The heads of the five factions, Lu Qin, Di Yun, Fang Ning, Qiu Ning and Cui Mao, also assembled their respective teams and came over together to listen to Xiao Han's orders. Xiao Han ordered the Qinglongtang to send the Qingning Helm Master Zhang Zhengwen to lead people to return from the original route first, and wait outside, if there is no news after three hours, it means that they have found a new way and will return to Tokyo on their own.

Zhang Zhengwen left with his own helmsman, and Chai Xinyue said softly: "I can't guarantee that I will find a way." Xiao Han smiled and said: "Now the brothers are all throwing themselves to the ground for the five bodies that you admire, and even Hu Gongzi's escape from trouble is a blessing to you." Senior Sister Chai is smart and wise, unparalleled in the world, after this battle, it will soon spread all over the rivers and lakes, which is really gratifying. ”

As soon as he said this, Chai Xinyue's beautiful eyes flashed, and after glancing at him, she turned her face away, her jade neck was slightly red, but the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, obviously very happy.

Li Yueying smiled when she heard what he said: "You always praise your sister for her intelligence and wisdom, do you know why you are not as good as others?" Murong Qiuyu said softly: "Miss Chai is smart and known all over the world, and she doesn't need to spread it to be famous, not to mention that this time Master Hu was able to get out of trouble thanks to Miss Chai, and the Divine Sect will be grateful for it." ”

The heads of the five factions came up together and said, "When I go back, I will spread the word about the princess's trip, and the three sects must be quite happy to learn about it." ”

Bai Haoming said happily: "Sister Chai is not only the most beautiful, but also the smartest, if it weren't for her to help my master, we would still be walking around outside." The sixth Si Haoxian followed: "Sister Chai is the best, we all and Master like her very much." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone had a meaningful smile on their faces. Chu Tianshu saw that Xiao Han and Murong Qiuyu looked embarrassed, and hurriedly said: "The head of my family often says that he doesn't talk, laugh or be lively, and everyone is happy, why don't we go out to see the White Lotus Statue?"

He relieved the siege like this, Xiao Han nodded hurriedly and said: "It's important to do business, let's set off now, and Brother Shui will lead the way." Shui Chenglang responded, led the way with the rudder, and everyone set off to the rear of the village in turn.

At this time, the entire Dhara Village has been destroyed, and there are ruins everywhere, and it has been completely abandoned. Everyone came to the back mountain along the winding path, and saw several collapsed stone houses, behind which was a mountain wall, and a cave more than one person high was carved out more than one meter high near the ground, and a snow-white statue was placed in it.

This god is solemn, but the appearance is not like the bodhisattva of great compassion and compassion, with a melon seed face, slender eyes, and delicate appearance, but like the villain snake spirit in the gourd baby. Holding a white lotus in his left hand and a long sword in his right hand, there was a trace of cold murderous aura in his elegance.

A Wudang disciple had already cleaned up the debris on the ground, Xiao Han led people to approach the Buddha statue, and after looking at it for a moment, he shook his head and said, "What is this? Is this the White Lotus Holy Mother?" Hu Yunzhao shook his head and said: "The White Lotus Sect has always been isolated from the world, even if my Divine Sect has always been outside the fortress, there is little news. ”

Xiao Han glanced at the Buddha statue again, and said with a sigh of relief: "It's just a little cult, it scares me." ”

Li Yueying said strangely: "How can you be afraid, it is not just a cult, and it is not my Central Plains Sect, what's strange?"

Xiao Han couldn't say this clearly, the strength of the White Lotus Sect in real history was extremely terrifying, which made the rulers of the past dynasties anxious about it. The White Lotus Sect was originally a secret religious association that has been circulated among the people since the Tang and Song Dynasties, originating from the Pure Land Sect of Buddhism, according to legend, the founder of the Pure Land Sect of the Eastern Jin Dynasty Shi Huiyuan and Liu Yimin and others in the Lushan Forest Temple and the White Lotus Society chanted together, and later generations of believers thought it was a model.

During the Northern Song Dynasty, the Pure Land Buddha Association was popular, and it was mostly called the White Lotus Society or the Lotus Society. During the Shaoxing period of the Southern Song Dynasty, the monk Mao Ziyuan of Kunshan in Wu County named Cizhao founded a new sect on the basis of the popular Pure Land Association, called the White Lotus Sect, that is, the White Lotus Sect.

In the early days, the White Lotus Sect worshiped Amitabha Buddha, advocated chanting Buddha and keeping precepts, and stipulated that believers should not kill, steal, commit adultery, lie or drink alcohol. It calls on believers to worship their ancestors and is a secret society that is half-monk and half-layman.

The White Lotus religion has simple teachings and relatively easy to understand scriptures, which are accepted by the lower classes, so they are often used as a tool to organize the people to resist oppression. In the Yuan and Ming dynasties, the White Lotus Sect organized peasant uprisings many times.

In the early Qing Dynasty, the White Lotus Sect developed into an anti-Qing secret organization, although it was repeatedly bloodily suppressed by the Qing government, but in the first year of Jiaqing, the White Lotus Sect uprising had developed into the largest uprising in the Jiaqing period. The uprising lasted nine years and four months, with hundreds of thousands of participants, causing great damage to the Qing court. Although it was finally suppressed, the Qing Dynasty has suffered a great loss of strength since then and has rapidly declined.

The White Lotus Sect serves the "childless old mother" and believes in the eight-character mantra of "vacuum hometown, childless old mother". It can be seen that the Buddha statue in front of him is nondescript, which is very different from what Xiao Han originally thought, this White Lotus Sect is not the White Lotus Sect, so naturally there is no need to be afraid.

In fact, even if it is the real White Lotus Sect, it is also in the origin stage at this time, and its strength is estimated to be inferior to the worst gang among the thirty-six factions.

Xiao Han was completely relieved, but thinking of the collusion between the White Lotus Sect and the Khitans, this was a bit difficult to do, with the strength of his own Wudang faction and the strength of the three sects and thirty-six factions, it was impossible to confront the Great Liao.

Murong Qiuyu obviously heard of the White Lotus Sect for the first time, and after looking up and down, he shook his head and said, "This statue is neither a god nor a Buddha, it is really strange. Li Yueying snorted: "Of course the cult stuff is weird. He turned his head to Chai Xinyue and said, "Did my sister find anything?"

Chai Xinyue looked down and saw three stone futons under the stone wall facing the Buddha statue, which were obviously used by the disciples to worship. After carefully examining the statue for a moment of tea, he sighed and said: "No matter how you look at it, it is just an ordinary Buddha statue, which is used by the White Lotus Sect to worship, and there is no secret way at all." ”

As soon as she said this, everyone was immediately deflated, and Li Yueying said disappointedly: "So we still have to go back the way we came?" Everyone thought of how rugged and difficult it was when they came, and they all shook their heads and said nothing, and their faces were embarrassed.

Chai Xinyue saw that everyone had high expectations for her, and said embarrassedly: "The cult is naturally secretive, and since it is called a secret way, it is naturally difficult to discover. Murong Qiuyu nodded and said, "What Miss Chai said is reasonable, if you think that this White Lotus Sect has gone to great lengths to build this Dhara Village, how can we easily find the way in and out?"

The seventh son of Wudang brought Su Ruotong to squeeze forward, Bai Haoming was the most lively, and brought the sixth Si Haoxian and said: "You take me below, I'll take a look in the cave." "The people were gathering together to talk, and no one was paying attention to them.

Si Haoxian agreed, and together with Lao Wufeng Haotian, he pulled Bai Haoming from below, and gently lifted it up, Bai Haoming grabbed it with both hands, and shrank his legs into the hole. Su Ruotong laughed softly below: "Little Seventh Brother, be careful, don't let that sword cut through your clothes." ”

Bai Haoming said with a smile: "Little junior sister, don't worry, Seventh Young Master, I am strong in martial arts, how can I let a dead statue hang up my clothes." As he spoke, he crouched down to look at the Buddha statue. This cave is more than one person high, but it is only more than one meter deep, Bai Haoming turned around in it, and ripped off the sword in the hand of the Buddha statue and said: "What the hell? ”

Su Ruotong chuckled and said, "Then why don't you hurry down?" Be careful to let the master scold." Bai Xiaoqi stuck out his tongue and said to the six senior brothers standing below: "I'm going to jump, you guys take a little bit." Jiang Haoyu smiled: "You have a lot of business, why don't you come down quickly?"
