Chapter 3, Section 5, Battle of Peach Blossom Temple, 217
It was a misty morning, and the fields, the branches, and the grass by the roadside were all green, and under the eaves in front of the house, everything was wet and crystalline, and a fragrance of flowers and trees greeted me.
The Peach Blossom Nunnery is located in the peach grove, surrounded by the fragrance of flowers, butterflies and bees. The path in front of the door is tortuous, the two sides are full of fruit stands, it is full of fruits, and the forest is green, and the birds are singing. This is a paradise, a place of peace on earth. But because of the Xuanjian Master's covenant, he actually broke the peace of this Buddhist sect that should be pure.
The door of the nunnery has already been opened, and the two older teachers are slowly sweeping the fallen leaves and flying grass on the ground, a thin teacher in his forties, with a thin figure, revealing a trace of elegance and nobility under the coarse cloth clothes, a faint skill, and a kind of stability. Shi Taizheng was standing quietly in front of the door, and there were three notes of fragrance on a desk. Shi Tai closed his eyes and chanted, and two young nuns behind him stood silently and served, one holding a cup of tea and the other holding a long sword.
In the open space in front of the hermitage, there is a world of heaven and earth, and there are many people standing in the green. The movement in front of the Peach Blossom Nunnery, the two heavens, but they are so close to each other, I have to sigh at the creation of the Lord of the world.
Holding an iron dove staff and carrying a long sword, Xuanjian Master sat cross-legged on the ground, his face was cold, and his eyes were closed. Behind him stood a fat-looking man, wearing a black scarf, dressed in black, with a wide back and a bear waist, holding a long sword, and a pair of cold eyes shining, which made people always feel that there was an inexplicable murderous aura, evil aura and endless hatred in his eyes. The man in black didn't say a word, his eyes were level ahead, and he looked at the road in front of the hermitage.
On the right hand side of Xuanjian Shitai, there were seven or eight big men with the same black scarves covering their heads and only showing their eyes, standing silently.
On the left hand side of the Xuanjian Master, there are six swordsmen of the Life and Death Gate wearing bronze masks, one white and five black. The six of them stood in two columns, all standing on the ground with their swords, and looked coldly at the Xuanjian master and the fat man behind the master.
On both sides of the Xuanjian Master, there were some friends on the rivers and lakes standing far away, and the people of the Huashan Sect and the disciples of the Beggar Gang were not a few.
Everyone on the rivers and lakes came to see the excitement. The names of Nanjian and the Gate of Life and Death both resounded throughout the country, shocking the martial arts, but in the end, no one had the honor to witness the dignity with their own eyes, let alone their own supernatural skills. Now, when the opportunity comes, how can we let it go. Many people came to the Peach Blossom Nunnery early after getting the news yesterday, vying to see this once-in-a-lifetime martial arts event.
The Xuanjian Master was silent, everyone at the Gate of Life and Death was silent, and everyone else spoke out for no reason, one by one they stretched their heads and necks, their eyes widened, and they couldn't stop scanning everyone.
After a long time, the Xuanjian Master said coldly: "Has the time come?"
The man in black behind him smiled: "It's here, it's coming." ”
His voice was hoarse, turbid and sharp, and he heard the sound of scraping iron against porcelain, and he was startled by layers of goosebumps on his body. This person turned out to be artificially altered. Everyone present was shocked.
Xuanjian Master slowly opened his eyes and sneered: "Presumably that kid won't come, he ran away!"
The black-clothed man behind him smiled: "Yes, I can't tell if it really scared away your prestige for your seniors, maybe!"
A black-clothed swordsman from the Life and Death Gate stepped forward and sneered: "No, he will come! Besides, with the people of the Life and Death Gate, I am afraid that the master will never be able to get his wish!"
The black-clothed man behind him moved his cold eyes to the man at the Gate of Life and Death, and sneered: "What is the matter between the Gate of Life and Death?
"The door of life and death, the evil way of the side door, I have never heard of it! The old body still advises everyone to be celibate and self-kind, good and evil have nothing to do with each other, don't meddle in the affairs of decent people such as me, so as not to dirty the old body's skills and go to the ground" Xuanjian Master closed his eyes and said disapprerovingly.
The swordsman of the Door of Life and Death snorted coldly and said, "Arrogance, Yelang is arrogant! No one in the whole world dares to say such a thing to this sect." Mrs. Shi is the first person in the world!"
The black-clothed man behind him smiled: "That's, when the Holy Aunt became famous, how could there be a door of life and death that you couldn't wait for?"
The swordsman of the Armor of the Life and Death Gate snorted coldly and said: "Your Excellency, don't stir up trouble, you are not a hero! Afterwards, I will talk to you in the next place, and I will ask for advice if I have something!"
The man in black behind him smiled: "Okay, it doesn't matter, I'll accompany you at any time!"
After a long time, Xuanjian Master slowly opened his eyes again, and said coldly: "Shameless thing, dare to play tricks on the old body, I don't want to live anymore!"
The black-clothed man behind him said with a smile: "The junior who wants to come to the surname Ren will not come, and he will be scared away long ago because of his false name!"
Xuanjian Master Tai shook the iron dove staff in his hand, and said hatefully: "How can this make the old body explain to the people of the world?
The swordsman of the first name of the Life and Death Gate snorted coldly and said: "General Ren is a friend of this sect, and the affairs of the general are the affairs of this sect! Whether the general comes or not, everything is always done by my own door!"
Xuanjian Master Tai shook the iron dove staff in his hand and sneered: "Don't ask for trouble!"
The swordsman of the Armor of the Life and Death Gate snorted coldly and said, "Or Shitai will try it!"
On the road ahead, I could hear the crisp and scattered sound of horses' hooves.
Everyone in front of the nunnery turned their heads to look at it. Several teachers who were cleaning the fallen leaves and closing their eyes to chant the scriptures also stopped their work and looked into the distance. The Jianghu guests whispered excitedly: "Look at it, come and see, it's coming, it's finally not in vain, there's a good show!"
In the mist and morning light, two big men rushed out, followed by several horses and horses, and at the end was a group of beggars and disciples. It was Ren Tianqi and his gang who came. In front, Miao Geng Er will lead the horse to open the way, and the black and white eagle guards next to him, surrounded by Tianbao Tian Muzuo and others, and rushed all the way.
When they came to the crowd, they stood still. Ren Tianqi flew off the horse, first saw the six people from the Gate of Life and Death, and then visited the heroes of the world, before he stepped forward, came to a place in front of Xuanjian Shitai, stood still, hugged his fists, and said with a smile: "The junior Ren Tianqi came by appointment and met the seniors." ”
The Xuanjian Master was too little of an iron dove staff, which was considered a return salute, and his anger disappeared a lot, and he said slowly: "Fortunately, you are still here, and you haven't escaped yet, and you are still a little backbone! The old body will ask you again, do you have to go to Shaolin to provoke?"
Ren Tianqi said: "It's true that the younger generation goes to Shaolin, but it's not about finding accountability!"
Xuanjian Shi nodded and said, "Okay, if you didn't intend to provoke accountability, how could you say all the way that the dignified Shaolin faction would have suppressed the old gang leader of the beggar gang? With such a mouthful of words and indiscriminate planting, you are not afraid of slandering Shaolin's reputation for hundreds of years? If you want to provoke the hatred of the two major gangs of the Shaolin beggar gang, what are your intentions and what are your intentions? The old man asks you again, do you have any evidence to prove that Shaolin really suppressed the leader of the beggar gang?"
Ren Tianqi said: "The younger generation really has no evidence, but I just listened to a friend who told me!"
Master Xuanjian nodded, turned around and glanced at the heroes of the world, and said loudly: "Okay, friend, what kind of friend? He is better than your master and ancestor, and he is better than the prestige of Master Minghui! What is the reason why you actually believe in your friend but not believe in your master and ancestor? Say it and listen to it!"
The heroes of the world all nodded yes and whispered.
Ren Tianqi said with a smile: "The junior didn't say that he came to Shaolin to be held accountable, but he just said that while worshipping the temple, he asked to prove the rumors of the rivers and lakes, inquire about the whereabouts of the old gang leader Yin, and wash away the unexplained injustices on Shaolin." This is also the responsibility of being a Shaolin disciple, and I have never intended to touch the dark up and down Shaolin!"
The black-clothed man behind Xuanjian Shi Tai sneered: "Who doesn't know that you are the concubine of the Great Jin Country, the lackey of the Jin people, who knows what your intentions are?
This person is not a master of sowing discord, and the heroes are in turmoil when they hear it.
Indeed, there are many beggar disciples who came to the Peach Blossom Nunnery, and there are many masked people, such as adding disguised clothes, who knows that the people in front of and behind them are not guaranteed to be the spies of the Jin Kingdom, the detectives of Shaolin?
Xuanjian Master Tai Iron Staff pointed at Ren Tianqi and said, "Good you are a scum of the Han people, a scum of the rivers and lakes." The old man originally wanted to persuade you to rein in the precipice and let you go once! Unexpectedly, you were obviously decent, but you secretly colluded with the golden dog, and used the beggar gang to be leaderless, for your personal use. Damn! Everyone can get it, take your life!"
Ren Tianqi said angrily: "How can the seniors be so aggressive, and they talk about thieves and scum without asking the ins and outs of the matter, so difficult that the juniors are afraid that you can't succeed?"
Xuanjian Master was stunned for a moment, shook the iron staff in his hand, and said angrily: "At a young age, you are so arrogant, it seems that you don't want to give you a little power, you don't know the skills of the old body! ”
Ren Tianqi snorted, stretched out his left hand, and said, "Fetch the halberd!"
