After a few people dispersed, Jiang Bugui came to Ning Qingyuan's mourning hall again. lit a stick of incense on the mourning hall, and gave Ning Qingyuan paper money in the mourning hall. Prepare to guard the spirit in the mourning hall today, since the death of the master, Jiang Bugui went out to deliver the letter, and today I want to guard the spirit of the master in the mourning hall, and I have done my filial piety. Jiang Bugui had just lit the paper money when he saw Ning Zhongze walking in. Ning Zhong saw that Jiang Bugui was not returning, so he said: "Senior brother, go back, go back!" I am guarding here, you have just come back, and you are injured, go and rest first!" Jiang Bugui said: "Senior sister, junior brother has never kept a night guard for the master, and he has done his filial piety. The younger brother is here today! I have done my filial piety, and my senior sister has been keeping watch these days, so let's go and rest today!" Ning Zhong said again: "These days, my senior brother and I have taken turns keeping vigil, so I am not tired. If your junior brother is injured, go back! Listen to your senior sister, obediently. Go and rest, and when you're healed, come back to keep a vigil for your uncle. The two argued for a while, and finally Jiang Bugui couldn't screw Ning Zhongze, so he returned to the Yangwu Pavilion to rest.

In the next few days, as the news of the death of Huashan Zixia Sword Saint Ning Qingyuan spread. More and more friends from the rivers and lakes came up to the mountain to worship Ning Qingyuan, and the Huashan faction gradually became busy. Jiang Bugui, Yue Buqun, and Ning Zhong took turns to keep vigil for Ning Qingyuan at night, while Ning Zhong kept watch in front of the spirit during the day. And Yue Buqun and Jiang Bugui were busy receiving some friends from the rivers and lakes during the day. Feng Qingyang hid behind the scenes according to the discussion that day and did not show up.

In this way, at noon on the 26th of this month, the disciples under the mountain reported that the Wudang Chongxu Daoist brought a few Wudang disciples to worship Ning Qingyuan. Immediately, Jiang Bu returned and went down the mountain to greet him. When Jiang Bugui walked to the mountainside, he saw Chongxu with a few Wudang disciples, Jiang Bugui hurriedly took a few steps forward and said: "Thank you for the arrival of the Wudang Sect Chongxu Daoist and all the Taoist friends, Jiang Mou greeted him late and hoped to atone for his sins." On behalf of the Huashan faction, Jiang thanked Wudang for his arrival. Everyone, please go up the mountain with Jiang. Then, Chong Xuan was also polite. Immediately, Jiang Bugui led the way in front of the Wudang people to the spirit of Ning Qingyuan, the righteous spirit hall of Huashan. Chongxu came to the spirit and lit a stick of incense in front of the spirit, then made a bow, and also mourned a scripture. At this time, Yue Buqun, Ning Zhongze, and Jiang Bugui, who were in front of the spirit, returned the salute. After that, Jiang Bugui arranged a place for Chongxu and the others. and delivered to the room in person.

After that, Nanyue Hengshan, Mo Da and Liu Zhengfeng, as well as Tianmen and Tiansong of Mount Tai, and Dingxian and Dingyi of Hengshan in Beiyue also came one after another. These people were also greeted by Jiang Bugui in person. After paying homage to Ning Qingyuan, Jiang Bugui also personally sent them to the guest room.

The next day, the disciples under the mountain came to report, and Zuo Lengchan, Tang Ying'e, Fei Bin and others of the Songshan faction also brought people to the foot of the mountain. Immediately, Jiang Bugui immediately led people to greet him. At about the mountainside, Jiang Bugui saw Zuo Lengchan and others. Although, Jiang Bugui hated these people in his heart, if it wasn't for the timely breakthrough last time, he would have ended this journey on that nameless hillside at this time. However, Jiang Bugui still pretended to be okay and hurried to catch up. When everyone in Songshan saw Jiang Bugui, they were obviously stunned, and a trace of doubt flashed in their eyes. At this time, Jiang Bugui quickly stepped forward and said to everyone: "No return, on behalf of the Huashan faction, thank Senior Brother Zuo and the other senior brothers for coming." You have worked hard from afar, and if you don't return, you will be late to welcome you, and please atone for your sins. Now, please go up the mountain with the non-return. Then Zuo Lengchan said: "Senior Brother Jiang, you're polite." The last time the junior brother went to Songshan as a brother, he didn't entertain the junior brother well, so the junior brother hurried down the mountain. This makes my brother feel guilty for a while! Senior Brother Jiang is polite, our Wuyue Sword Sect is a family. I also bothered my brother to come to greet him, and thank my brother here. ”

Then Jiang Bugui went up the mountain with Zuo Lengchan and the others to Huashan Zhengqi Hall. On the way, Jiang Bugui deliberately asked, "Senior Brother Zuo, why didn't you see Senior Brother Lu coming?" Last time in Songshan, Senior Brother Lu picked up the younger brother up the mountain and sent the younger brother down the mountain. The younger brother also said that this time he must entertain Senior Brother Lu in Huashan. ”

Actually, Zuo Lengchan has been strange since he saw Jiang Bugui. He asked Lu Bai to lead his disciples to intercept and kill Jiang Bugui. With Lu Bai's martial arts, as long as he encounters Jiang and does not return, it will be difficult for Jiang to survive. The news shows that Jiang Bugui did go to the Taishan faction, so he must pass through Hebei and go to Beiyue Hengshan in Shanxi. will return to Huashan. The ambush in Hebei, which he asked Lu Bai to go to first, should not let Jiang Bugui escape. Since Jiang Bugui appeared here, then Lu Bai and the others must have missed it. When you go back, you must ask why Lu Bai failed to intercept Jiang Bu Return. Zuo Lengchan would never have thought that Lu Bai had indeed intercepted Jiang Bugui, but he was killed if he failed to intercept and kill. Because in Zuo Lengchan's eyes, with the martial arts of his second junior brother, it was easy to deal with a stinky Jiang Bugui. Zuo Lengchan would never believe that Jiang Bugui could defeat Lu Bai, let alone kill Lu Bai. Even if Zuo Lengchan returned to Songshan soon after, he couldn't wait for Lu Bai to return. I have always guessed that Lu Bai and the others were definitely provoked, and other martial arts masters were killed. At that time, Zuo Lengchan always suspected that it was the hand of the beggar gang Xie Feng, because at that time, among the people in the rivers and lakes in Hebei, only Xie Feng could have the strength to defeat Lu Bai, and he couldn't even escape. This misunderstanding directly led to a small fire between the beggars and Songshan in the end. Of course, that's an afterthought.

At this time, Zuo Lengchan heard Jiang Bugui ask Lu Bai, so he had no choice but to say: "Senior Brother Lu, this time you need to sit in my Songshan, so I didn't come to pay tribute and send Uncle Ning off." Master Ning is the patriarch of my Wuyue Sword Sect, and I admire Master Ning from top to bottom of Songshan Mountain. Senior Brother Lu couldn't come to pay tribute to Uncle Ning this time, and I felt very sorry at the foot of Songshan Mountain. Senior Brother Jiang also wants to mourn!" After speaking, he looked at Jiang Bugui with an expressionless face. Zuo Lengchan means that your master Ning Qingyuan is calling us Uncle Shi for the sake of the alliance of the Wuyue Sword Sect. It's not that we are really a teacher, my junior brother Lu is free to arrange whether to come to Songshan or not. You don't have to worry about Jiang Bugui, you still have to take care of yourself. Jiang Bugui pretended not to understand Zuo Lengchan's meaning. Actually, I don't know if you really respect my master in Songshan. But I know that this Lu Bai is absolutely, listening to my master's teachings. Then he said quietly: "I can't see it, Senior Brother Lu is deeply sorry. If you see Senior Brother Lu, say hello to me. Saying that, a group of people have come to Huashan Zhengqi Hall.

Ning Zhong saw the people in Songshan, and looked at them angrily. But Yue Buqun was silent and handed Zuo Lengchan a stick of incense. The people of Songshan paid tribute to Ning Qingyuan. Jiang Bugui arranged accommodation for them and personally delivered them to the guest room. Subsequently, Shaolin, Kongtong, Kunlun, Allure, Beggar Gang and other sects also came to Huashan one after another, among which Shaolin came to deal with foreign affairs Master Fangsheng. The other factions are all heads or gang leaders themselves. Jiang Bugui also picked up the mountain one by one, and arranged accommodation.
