Thirty miles of shop, Linfeng Building, there is only one table of guests, and the door is closed.

The shopkeeper, the bookkeeper, and the shopkeeper are all gone, and there is a sumptuous meal left in the lobby on the entire first floor.

The other seven people sat around the table.

Xiong Chu sat in the center, with Fang Qianxun on the left hand side and Huang Yanying on the right hand side.

Huang Yanying's next is Shen Xiyue, and Fang Qianxun's next is Yan Erniang.

Sitting opposite were two sixteen or seventeen-year-old female disciples of the Purple Cloth Sect: Mo Lijiao, a bone penetrating needle, and Qiao Lianying, a merry brocade.

It turned out that Shen Xiyue first went to Changyan Pavilion to call Huang Yanying and Fang Qianxun out, asking them to guard the boulder with Yan Erniang, Mo Lijiao, and Qiao Lianying.

Later, when he returned to call Xiong Chu out, it was Shen Xiyue who decided to have a showdown with him.

This time, when I came to pay homage to Yuan Moyun, the purple-clothed faction came over with four people, because they didn't know that there would be such an unexpected change as the list of "The Book of Thieves".

The incident happened in a hurry, and it was too late to mobilize people.

As the helmsman of a sect, Shen Xiyue has the courage to make decisions, so she has a direct showdown, wanting to find three powerful helpers for herself.

When things were said, Xiong Chu was entangled.

was chased and killed indiscriminately by his beautiful nephew and nephew, which is the biggest oolong incident that Xiong Chu has encountered.

Especially when he heard Shen Xiyue's reason for killing herself, even Xiong Chu himself felt very sad, and it was also the sorrow of the killer.

Because he suddenly appeared, and he didn't have any foundation, he belonged to the kind of object that was very simple to kill and had no sequelae after killing, so he was assassinated.

Who made you someone else's uncle, or even an uncle? If you are hunted down and killed, you can't get angry as a result, and you have to pay for your smile.

Xiong Chu felt very unbalanced in his heart, and even felt a tingling sensation on his scalp.

Yan Erniang, a merry little widow, the proprietress of Wanfu Building.

Ten years of daughter red, mixed with two catties of water, joined forces to kill the enemy, sat and drank.

Uncle Shi, beautiful nephew, once in the spring breeze, bloody sheets, and the remaining ten years of daughter red.

These words suddenly appeared in Xiong Chu's mind, making him uncomfortable and a little uncomfortable.

Thinking of Yan Erniang, she was feverish, and Prince Xiong was a little helpless: "Is it true that I have no relationship with a gentleman in my life, and can only be a villain? Isn't it a little despicable and shameless?"

Unlike Xiong Chu's heart-wrenching, after Fang Qianxun saw the showdown, he was immediately promoted to senior uncle, which was simply the most excited person in the world.

The treatment that Huo Lianshan did not enjoy was finally fulfilled today.

But when I looked at it next, the youngest Mo Lijiao and Qiao Lianying were a few years older than him, and Fang Qianxun suddenly became unbalanced, and he could hang the oil pot with his small mouth.

Whether you're happy or depressed. It was recognized as something worth celebrating, so the seven of them hurried up and rushed all the way over the mountains and mountains to Linfeng Tower.

The current people in the martial arts, all the attention is in Yuanjiazhai, and the relatively remote Linfeng Building has been crowded for the past two days.

Huang Yanying threw out a piece of silver and five taels of silver, and Linfeng Building was closed tonight to sort out housekeeping.

Of course, they don't really want to celebrate, but they have something to say, and it's something that no one else can listen to.

Prince Xiong reported his discoveries in the past two days, and also explained the huge conspiracy that the "Book of Thieves of the World" might hide, as well as the results of his own deduction.

"Uncle—"

As soon as Yan Erniang spoke, she was interrupted by Xiong Chu: "It's not good for me to call you Erniang, let's call you Second Sister." As for you, I still like to hear you call me brother. Ugh—"

Speaking of this, Xiong Chu suddenly slapped the table: "My master didn't teach me any rules, so there are no rules." What a mess of seniority, all get out of the way. From today onwards, all of us will be friends on the same footing, according to age!"

"It's not fair!" Fang Qianxun said angrily, "Why am I the youngest no matter where I am?"

"Uh, brother, according to you, the Book of Thieves doesn't exist, it's just someone who made it up to deceive people, right?" Yan Erniang patted Fang Qianxun on the shoulder, and then said in her own words: "In this way, it's best for us to just watch, right?"

Shen Xiyue shook her head: "On the way over, I thought carefully about the things that happened recently. Just now, Childe said a lot of details again, I think the authenticity of "The Book of Thieves" is no longer important, the most important thing is what is hidden behind it, and what position we should take. ”

Huang Yanying nodded: "My point of view is that we should divide the army into two ways next, one bright and one dark." All the way on the bright side, it is still the purple faction of Sister Xiyue and Sister Yan, after all, you have a legal identity. Although it does not participate in the competition for the right to speak, as a small sect and looks at the excitement in the past, it is more in line with the actual situation. ”

"Secretly, all the way, that's the senior brother. He was originally a killer, and it was unreasonable to mix in a large group of people. As for my junior sister and I, we can act on the opportunity, or follow the actions of the Purple Cloth Sect, and take care of each other. Or turn light into darkness as an ambush army. ”

"That's good, just do what Senior Sister Huang said. Xiong Chu finally held down Shen Xiyue and Yan Erniang's thoughts, and a stone fell to the ground in his heart: "Yuan Moyun said that the martial arts conference will be held tomorrow, isn't it? ”

Shen Xiyue shrugged: "With the three of you here presiding over the overall situation, I finally tasted relaxation, so let's do it." ”

Fang Qianxun's mouth is fast, sometimes out of tune, and sometimes to the point, straight to the core, making people not know if she is really stupid or pretending to be stupid:

"You are very wrong! Looking at me like this, am I also a person who can preside over the overall situation? At most, I am with the mud, watching the excitement, and then talking nonsense. You still have to be careful and careful about specific things, lest the gutter capsize. ”

In any case, everyone has agreed, and Xiong Chu is a little more relieved.

The reason why Xiong Chu is a little relieved is because now that everything has been put on the table, at least Qianlong Tang should not come over to look for trouble, which removes a hidden danger.

Next, he can devote all his energy to dealing with the Thunderbolt Hall, the Vulcan Sect, and the most headache-inducing Jinyi Guard and Jiudao Mountain Villa.

After a simple meal, the seven people returned to Yuanjiazhai overnight, and it was already the early morning of the next day.

Those who should have come have come, and those who shouldn't have come have come, and there are now more than 300 people in the huge square outside the front hall of Yuanjiazhai.

Although people in the martial arts often walk around outside, they don't have much time to get together.

In the martial arts, there was no wind and three feet of waves. If there is a large group of people coming together, there is a good chance that there will be a huge wave.

Today, of course, it is a great joy to have this opportunity, so different people have different expressions, different circles, and different ways of moving.

Now, the whole scene is full of people.

Only two places were silent.

One is the nine disciples of the Shaolin Temple Warrior Monk Hall, who sit on the ground and close their eyes to recuperate.

One is more than 100 disciples of Yuan Jiazhai, and they can't sit. Not only must they not sit, but they must also stand upright, because they are responsible for maintaining order.

Today is the day when several giants negotiate and determine the "three-person group".

Xiong Chu was naturally invited by Miss Yuan to have breakfast, in addition to Huang Yanying and Fang Qianxun, the two iron-clad escorts, two new escorts of Shen Xiyue and Yan Erniang were added today.

By the time Xiong Chu and the others appeared in the front hall, there was not much time left for them to fight.

When Shen Xiyue was eating breakfast, she had already asked Yan'er to go to the front hall to inform Yuan Moyun that the Luoyang Purple Clothes Sect came over this time specifically to pay homage to the Lord of Yuan Zhai, and would not participate in other matters.

So now when they appeared at the gate, Yuan Moyun immediately greeted them warmly, and then arranged to sit in the front row.

Prince Xiong did not shirk this time, today is the day to watch the big show, and he can see it more clearly by sitting on the rostrum condescendingly.

From Xiong Chu's left hand down, there are Yuan Liqing, Huang Yanying, Fang Qianxun, Shen Xiyue, Yan Erniang, and Xia Yun.

On the right hand side of Xiong Chu, Yuan Moyun, Master Hongfa, Lu Changming, Gao Changming, Wuchenzi, Jiang Tengjiao, Duan Hu, and Liu Jie are in order.

As for the people of the other factions, they were all on the opposite side of the competition platform, such as Li Xin, Peng Wuying, Tang Kai of the Perak Hall, Ge Youquan of the Vulcan faction, people from the Sanguan Dart Bureau, and so on.

Xiong Chu didn't bother to care how others sit, he was looking at the competition platform.

This is a martial arts platform made of stones, which should be something that Yuan Jiazhai has made many years ago. It is about six feet high, about five zhang wide, and more than ten zhang long. There is a staircase at the east and west ends, and there are steps on the left and right sides of the south side.

The night before, the gifts sent by various doors were displayed on this at the beginning.

The head sent by the bear prince was also kept here at the beginning, but today it is no longer visible, and no one cares how it will be dealt with in the end.

"Amitabha—"

Master Kobo was the first to stand up, with a single palm of his right hand, and his mouth was full of Buddha horns. Although the sound was not high, there seemed to be a muffled thunder rolling through the entire square, and there was a sudden silence.

This hand internal strength table came out, so that everyone once again learned the lion roar magic of Shaolin Temple. The little disciples of various factions who came out to see the world for the first time almost scared their souls.

"Today is a big gathering of our Shangluo Wulin, and we want to thank Old Benefactor Yuan for giving everyone this opportunity. In the martial arts, it is the duty of people to hoe the strong and help the weak, and to punish the evil and promote the good. At the same time, we must not forget that we are the descendants of the Ming Dynasty and the descendants of the dragon. ”

"Yuanjiazhai can be unique in the rivers and lakes, and naturally has its roots and reasons. We are here today, and we must not forget our roots. Now Lao Na announced on behalf of Yuan Lao Donor: Please plaque-"

With the roar of Master Hongfa, the two Yuanjiazhai disciples in the main hall wore red and hung green and carried out a plaque, and the other four disciples hurriedly climbed the ladder that had been approved long ago on the martial arts platform.

Soon, a large gilt plaque with a black background of gold silk sandalwood was raised on the crossbar, and all the personnel saw eight glittering big words: "Defend the family and defend the country, and return my rivers and mountains." ”

Master Kobo led the people on the rostrum down to the south of the Yanwu platform, and led everyone to bow three times to remember the great achievements of their predecessors.

After the ceremony, Master Kobo continued: "The benefactor of Kenhachiro is not only anxious for justice and righteousness, jealous of evil and hatred, but also a frank gentleman in the martial arts. He did not hide the treasure when he got it, but openly and honestly told it to the public. ”

"Entrusted by the old benefactor of Yuan, Lao Wei took advantage of the festive atmosphere of his 50th birthday to preside over the ceremony here and determine the person who will jointly deal with the "Book of Thieves". ”

"In order for the selected people to be convincing and able to convince the public thoroughly, I had to discuss them appropriately. The main purpose is to exchange martial arts experience as the basis, and at the same time learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses. ”

"As long as I am a fellow martial artist in the Central Plains, I am qualified to participate in this matter. However, the Luoyang Purple Clothes Sect was unwilling to use the sword on the day of the great joy of the Lord of Yuan Zhai, and took the initiative to give up this qualification, and Lao Wei expressed his admiration. ”

"Lao Wei believes that all the donors present today are a member of the martial arts and will be able to follow the rules of the martial arts. In the process of learning, the main thing is to show one's own cultivation, and in principle, it is not allowed to hurt others. If one party admits defeat, the other party must stop immediately and must not intentionally harm the other party. ”

"As the saying goes: there is no good hand in fighting. As long as you are on the stage, it is inevitable that there will be some damage. But everyone's eyes are bright, and if you deliberately hurt someone, you will be spurned by everyone. That's all the old man said, now is the time to start. Amitabha, good, good!"
