Xin Guoliang and Yi Guozi knew that the people of the Songshan faction in the town under the mountain would not leave easily, so the two of them were not in a hurry, so they decided to wait until a good opportunity to set up Zhao Tiancheng to ensure that nothing went wrong. But this is half a year's wait.

In ancient times, the Shangyuan Festival was a very important festival, even more important than the Spring Festival, and in the Ming Dynasty, the entire Lantern Festival lasted for ten days. And in four days, it will be the Shangyuan Festival. At that time, the state capital will be very lively, in order to show the country's singing and dancing.

At that time, there will also be a lot of pilgrims who come to the Shaolin Temple to offer incense. The monks in the monastery will become very busy. And the Luohan Hall, the Pranya Hall, etc., will stop teaching martial arts. But there is nothing wrong with them, lay disciples. Every year, they go down the mountain. Therefore, the two of them wanted to fool Zhao Tiancheng to the location of the state capital, so that they could get out of the boundary of Shaolin, so that it would be convenient for them to do it.

At noon, when everyone was having lunch, Xin Guoliang and Yi Guozi walked over to Zhao Tiancheng, who was sitting alone at the table. Seeing the two people coming over, Zhao Tiancheng was very puzzled, since Zhao Tiancheng came to the Praruo Hall, he had not had much contact with the two of them. Zhao Tiancheng knew that these two people were not only tricks, but also had very bad surnames, so he didn't think about having any relationship with the two of them.

But after all, it was the senior brother, and Zhao Tiancheng still stood up, "I don't know what happened to the two senior brothers?" Zhao Tiancheng casually made a Buddhist salute. He sat down, as if he were dealing with someone.

Yi Guozi next to him became angry when he saw Zhao Tiancheng's careless surname. With a flushed face, he wanted to rush up to teach Zhao Tiancheng a lesson, but he was stopped by Xin Guoliang next to him and stopped him with his eyes.

Xin Guoliang's scheming was higher, so he didn't care, but said with a smile, "Senior Brother Guocheng, in four days it will be the Shangyuan Festival, and the temple will be busy at that time, and it is not conducive to cultivating martial arts, so it is better for all of us to go to the state capital to see the excitement of the Lantern Festival." It is said that there will also be a lantern contest. ”

Zhao Tiancheng didn't want to go at all, he still had to hurry up and practice, seeing that the plot was about to start. So Zhao Tiancheng did not hesitate to reject the proposal of the two people.

At this time, even Xin Guoliang's face darkened, if he was a senior brother before, let alone invite someone to go out to play, he would not have refused so much to let the other party do all kinds of work. But now in front of so many people, Zhao Tiancheng actually refused his invitation in person, which made him feel that the eyes around him were secretly despising him.

Yi Guozi saw that Xin Guoliang was also angry this time, so he slapped the table angrily and said, "Senior brother is kind enough to invite you to play, why don't you give any face?"

Zhao Tiancheng sneered: "Is it possible that Senior Brother will accept my invitation? Who taught you?" ”

Yi Guozi became even more angry after hearing this, but now in the Shaolin Temple, if they bully their junior brothers, the lightest will be punished and expelled from Shaolin, and the serious ones may directly abolish the martial arts of the two people.

"Okay! Okay! Let's go!" Xin Guoliang popped out a few words from between his teeth.

"Wait! The dishes on my table have been knocked over, and you two are leaving like this?" Zhao Tiancheng said in a casual tone.

The figures of the two people paused, and they hurriedly left here with the help of the **.

Zhao Tiancheng looked at the backs of these two people thoughtfully. But I didn't care too much about it, and in another year, the two tricks would end up with a boxed lunch. Zhao Tiancheng couldn't afford to be angry with the two of them.

Seeing that Xin Guoliang and Yi Guozi had disappeared, the monks next to him all gathered around, and one of them persuaded: "Senior Brother Guocheng, you have to be careful if you offend these two people! ”

"Yes!" "Yes!" The surrounding monks also echoed.

Zhao Tiancheng gave a salute: "Thank you for your concern." It's just a big deal that 'the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth'. But I didn't expect it to be the Shangyuan Festival. At that time, the expenses of the senior brothers will be recorded in the accounts of the younger brothers. ”

After the two of them returned to the room, Yi Guozi said angrily: "Senior brother went to invite him personally, but he couldn't move, the shelf was bigger than the master." But then again, what if he doesn't go to our plan?"

Xin Guoliang was also very angry at first, but on the way back, he really thought of a good way to trick Zhao Tiancheng out. smiled and whispered to Yi Guozi about the plan.

"Wonderful! It's still a senior brother's brain. Look at Zhao Tiancheng this time, he didn't fall for it. Yi Guozi clapped his hands after listening to Xin Guoliang's strategy and said happily.

By the time of the fourth day of the Shangyuan Festival, the Shaolin Temple had begun to gradually become lively in the early morning. A lot of pilgrims came to the mountain one after another, and some rich people also brought servants, maids, and guarded a group of people.

Zhao Tiancheng went to Hanruotang after breakfast. I practiced inside for a day, and I didn't come out until evening. Because there are a lot of people who are fasting in Shaolin Temple today, the lay disciples all go to the bottom of the mountain to eat. Zhao Tiancheng returned to the bedroom, changed his clothes, and prepared to go down the mountain.

Generally, these ordinary disciples of Shaolin Temple are many people living in a big house, and those monks basically do not practice martial arts as hard as Zhao Tiancheng, so in normal times, when Zhao Tiancheng comes back, the house is very lively. But when Zhao Tiancheng returned to the room today, he found that the room was very quiet. Zhao Tiancheng lit the oil lamp only to find that there was no one in the house, Zhao Tiancheng felt very strange, even if they wanted to go down the mountain to play, they would wait for Zhao Tiancheng. Because Zhao Tiancheng is rich, he can eat some good things at the foot of the mountain.

Just when Zhao Tiancheng changed his clothes and wanted to go out, he saw the note posted on the door, and Zhao Tiancheng knew that these people had gone to the state capital. Even the other lay disciples went. Let Zhao Tiancheng also go to the state capital to find them after seeing it.

It turned out that Zhao Tiancheng was affected by his previous school habits, and generally Zhao Tiancheng would participate in any activities of the brothers and sisters who lived together. This time, Zhao Tiancheng didn't think much about it, changed his clothes, put on a hat, and went down the mountain.

At this time, there were two groups of people in ambush on the place where Shaolin must pass through the state capital, one group was the ten disciples of Songshan led by the 13th Taibao of Songshan, and the leader was Sha Tianjiang, the "vulture" of the 11th Taibao. And the other group of people is Yi Guozi and Xin Guoliang. They were ambushed not far from the Songshan faction, waiting for the people from the Songshan faction to go up first, and when the Songshan faction and Zhao Tiancheng were defeated, the two of them would come out to clean up the mess. It is the idea of catching cicadas with praying mantis and yellow finches behind.

After Zhao Tiancheng changed his clothes, he hurriedly left the temple and walked towards the state capital. Although the distance is a bit far, because of the reason for practicing martial arts, the foot travel is very fast. Moreover, Zhao Tiancheng also learned Shaolin's basic light skills in this year, "Light Body Lifting Technique", plus because of internal force, the durability is also very long. A hundred miles is not a long distance for these people.
