Wei Li didn't believe that Meng Sizhao would mention himself for no reason, but he didn't want to say it clearly, and he couldn't ask about it, so he had to put this matter in the back of his mind for the time being, and urged him to ride with Ye Lingwei, Ye Lingwei said with concern: "What did Uncle Meng say to you?" She was so curious, she wanted to know if what was said was about her.

Wei Li smiled: "Uncle Meng asked me if I knew Wei Potian, and asked me to be careful of the "Second Elder Xuanming". ”

Ye Lingwei frowned and said: "Wei Potian became famous more than ten years ago, and then suddenly disappeared, and no one in the sect mentioned it anymore, it seems to be related to the division within the sect. As for the two elders of Xuanming, they also began to live in seclusion in the Jingwu Hall from that time, concentrating on practicing the Xuanming Divine Palm, and I have never seen them. ”

Wei Li breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, Ye Lingwei, who had been in Jingwumen for five or six years, had never seen these two people, and it was unlikely that he would meet them.

A trip to the mountains and a trip to the water, it took Wei Li and his party five days to complete the day and night road when they came. Accompanied by Meng Sizhao along the way, he has rich experience in the rivers and lakes, and he is a congenital master, Wei Li and the others don't have to worry about safety issues, and they are quite comfortable.

As soon as he arrived outside the mountain gate, he saw a middle-aged scribe in a blue robe and beautiful hair sitting in the welcome pavilion, reading a book with relish.

Meng Sizhao jumped off the horse first, let out a hearty laugh, and "woke up" the middle-aged scribe who was reading: "After more than five years, Brother Zhu has not changed at all, and he is still so bookish and refuses to release the volume." ”

The middle-aged scholar put down the scroll in his hand, got up and said with a smile: "Brother Meng has changed a lot, when Brother Meng left the division, several old guys were worried that you would collapse, the year before last, Brother Meng wrote a letter saying that the breakthrough to the congenital, a few of us drank a bowl of congratulations for Brother Meng." ”

Meng Sizhao said with a smile: "I am already a lot behind the brothers, I am ashamed and ashamed! Why is Brother Zhu here?" Although he was ashamed, his words were full of joy.

The middle-aged scholar said: "I heard that Brother Meng returned to the mountain, and it happened that the master sent people to lead these disciples to the "Mingxin Palace", so I took this errand by the way. ”

Ye Lingwei said in Wei Li's ear: "This is Uncle Zhu Ziliu, who is good at a yang finger. After finishing speaking, he walked forward and said, "Meet Uncle Zhu!"

Zhu Ziliu said with a smile: "Ling Wei's nephew is becoming more and more slim, and Zi said: My fair lady and gentleman are good." I think that in two years, the threshold of our Jingwu Sect will be broken by the person who proposes to marry. ”

Ye Lingwei didn't follow: "Uncle Shi came to laugh at me again, see if I don't go back and tell Master." ”

Zhu Ziliu waved his hand and said, "Don't tell your master that he, a drunkard, should find me to fight again." ”

In the good-natured laughter of others, Zhu Ziliu took a few people up the mountain and brought Wei Li and his party to the door of the "Mingxin Palace", Zhu Ziliu said: "A few of you go in, I will take Brother Meng to meet a few old friends." ”

Ye Lingwei took Wei Li's nine people into the Mingxin Palace, Wei Li habitually looked at the plaque directly above the hall and the couplets on both sides, the plaque was written with the four big characters of "Mingxin Insight", and the couplets on both sides were written "Mingxin understands life and death, and sees the emptiness", which is a bit of Buddhism and Taoism.

Then he quickly observed the situation in the hall, and on the main seat sat a tall, white-haired, turtle-backed, red-faced old man, who was looking at Wei Li and the others with a gentle face. His eyes are peaceful, he seems to have infinite love for the world, and he seems to look down on life and death, and sometimes the two emotions rotate into Tai Chi in his eyes.

Wei Li guessed that this old man should be Zhang Sanfeng, the current head of the "Jingwu Sect", who ranked second among the top ten masters in the rivers and lakes with his self-created Taijiquan sword, second only to the sect leader of the Wentian Sect who entered the Tao with love.

Wei Li didn't dare to look more, and looked to both sides, sitting in the first place on the left was Qiao Feng, the first protector in the door, and next to Qiao Feng was the golden lion king Xie Xun. Sitting in the first place on the right was an old man with white hair and white eyebrows who was nearly eighty years old, with a wooden face, Wei Li didn't know him, and next to him was Huang Yaoshi, who had taught Wei Li "Mixed Yuan Palm".

Seeing a few people coming in, Qiao Feng said solemnly: "Ye Lingwei, you explain the situation of this trip to the master." ”

Ye Lingwei has been talking about returning to the mountain gate since she entered Jinyang, and she did not mention Zhou Botong, nor did she mention Wang Ze kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy. After finishing speaking, Ye Lingwei took out the letter, stepped forward, and handed it to the head Zhang Sanfeng.

Zhang Sanfeng opened the letter and read it, he read it very carefully, and it took him a quarter of an hour to read the thin two-page paper. After reading it, he put the letter in his arms, and then said to Qiao Feng: "Go on!"

Qiao Feng took out a piece of yellow silk and read: "Ye Lingwei, lead the disciples into Jinyang to investigate the killing of Shi Qianqiu, and impress Haoran Academy; ”

"Wei Li, with the cultivation of the physical realm to face the great master, neither humble nor arrogant, and the prestige of the master is sent abroad; the sentence "Fight Hu Lu together" in Taibai Lou detonated the chivalrous feelings of the high-rollers in the rivers and lakes, and rescued the injured people afterwards, showing more benevolence; Cross Slope used a series of tactics to scare off Huo Du, Xingzi, and Ouyang Ke, who had both bravery, chivalry, benevolence, and wisdom, and the task was rated as a product, and a martial arts of the mortal level was rewarded. ”

"Xu Qingshan, Zhao Feng, Wang Kai, Chen Yue, Mo Yiyi, Xu Jingqin, Tang Chong are seven people, they are not afraid of death, their integrity is commendable, the task is rated three grades, and they will be rewarded for one day of Jingwutang's cultivation. ”

After finishing reading, he put away the yellow silk and handed it to the white-bearded old man on the right side and said: "Chengguan Protector, this is the teacher's reward and punishment order, and I will now hand it over to you" After seeing Chengguan, he said to Ye Lingwei and a few people, "Your reward can be collected at the Shimen Chuangong Hall, this is Master Chengguan, the elder of the Chuangong Hall, just look for him." Chengguan looked at Wei Li and his party carefully, keeping them in mind, but did not speak.

At this time, Wang Ze suddenly walked out and said, "Disciple Wang Ze, please meet Qiao Protector." The disciples also followed to complete the task, why didn't there be a reward for the disciples?" As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Huang Yaoshi, who had been sitting upright, snorting contemptuously.

Qiao Feng also shouted angrily: "The master is important, how can you be allowed to make noise here and retreat." Qiao Feng was already born mighty, and this anger was like an angry lion, Wang Ze was so frightened by him that he took two steps back, his face was like earth, sweating like pulp, and he couldn't say a word.

After drinking Wang Ze back, Qiao Feng took out another piece of white silk silk, and slowly unfolded it and read: "Wang Ze, in the process of investigating Shi Qianqiu's killing, he did not make an inch, and he was greedy for life and afraid of death, intending to betray his fellow disciples to survive, laughing at the rivers and lakes, violating the first article of the door rules, abolishing martial arts, expelling from the division, and punishing the Chu king's family for not recommending disciples to the division within ten years." ”

Hearing this, Wang Ze almost fainted, but he still had a trace of luck and defended: "The disciple has not done anything to harm his fellow disciples, I am not convinced." He hoped that Ye Lingwei and his party would not expose him.

Qiao Feng said unhurriedly: "The master sect sends the disciples down the mountain to complete the task, and depending on the severity and difficulty of the task, the masters in the sect will be sent to follow secretly, one is difficult to investigate the disciple's heart, and the other is to protect secretly. Your trip to Jinyang is secretly accompanied by the protector of Huang Yaoshi. ”

After hearing Qiao Feng's words, Wang Ze no longer had the heart to be lucky, and cried on the ground: "The disciple is just a ghost for a while, Qiao Protector is gracious!"

Qiao Feng was unmoved, and handed the white satin to the golden lion king next to him.

Looking at Wang Ze, who was rolling around, Huang Yaoshi said in disgust: "If according to what the old man said, the punishment for abolishing martial arts is too light, and you should also break your limbs and pull out your tongue." ”

Hearing Huang Yaoshi's cold words, Wang Ze's crying stopped abruptly, his face was full of horror, Xie Xun arched his hand to Zhang Sanfeng, and lifted Wang Ze to leave.

Chengguan and Huang Yaoshi also left one after another, and Huang Yaoshi didn't look at Wei Li from beginning to end, and he was really an arrogant person. Zhang Sanfeng also followed the rumors in the door, and handed over everything to Qiao Feng to handle, without saying a word from beginning to end.

Everyone else had already left, and Qiao Feng said: "You all go back and rest, Wei Li, you haven't broken through the True Qi Realm yet, and the reward for your kung fu can wait until you break through the True Qi Realm and then go to the Chuan Gong Hall to study." ”
