48. The Top of the Jade Emperor (1)

The assignment was completed, and Qin Chuan led Elder Deng and Lian Dong to go up the mountain first.

The three of them started light work and climbed the mountain from the southern foothills. Climb the stairs, go up for forty-five miles, the mountain road is full of masonry stones, and its level is about more than 7,000.

Directly south of Mount Tai there are three valleys. The middle valley surrounds the city of Tai'an, that is, the so-called ring water of the ancient Li Daoyuan.

When Qin Chuan saw that Deng and Lian were climbing mountains and mountains, they surpassed the flying birds, like a spirit ape, and their skills were really extraordinary, and they actually regarded the nine bends and eighteen bends of Daizong's natural danger as a broad avenue, and secretly rejoiced in his heart: "I only said that Elder Deng's martial arts are not low, and I didn't expect that even the eldest brother's handsome and elegant appearance would have such great skills! No wonder he became the helmsman of the Shandong rudder at a young age." With the help of the two of them on this trip, the odds of winning will be a little higher!"

He didn't want to show off his light skills, and he always followed the two of them. That night, I rested in a cave in Zhongling. The next day, we followed the West Valley and continued to walk.

On the third day, the three of them won the Jade Emperor. Qinchuan looks at it, but sees that the mountain is steep, the pine trees are verdant, the birds are singing, the flowing water is murmuring, and more than ten Taoist temples and houses in front of him are scattered all over the top of the mountain, and most of them are built according to the mountain or high or low.

At that time, the sun was shining, and the spring under the mountain was getting stronger, but in the middle of the mountain, there were still large patches of white snow that had not disappeared in winter, and the gusts of wind blew and the cold hit people.

He has lived in Emei for a long time between the mountains and mountains, accustomed to seeing the beautiful Shu mountains, at this moment in Mount Tai is in the mountains, but see the top of the mountain more rocks and less soil, pine and stone Xuan, the scenery and Emei are very different, but there is another majestic rhyme.

Lian Dong suddenly groaned: "It will be the top of the mountain, and you can see all the mountains at a glance." Helper, when Confucius climbed Mount Tai and was small in the world, I think this Mount Tai should be the highest place in the world, right?"

Qinchuan is at the peak, only to feel that the world is small, is sighing at the wonder of Mount Tai's scenery, the wonder of creation. Hearing Lian Dong's question, he said with a smile: "Brother Lian is so Yaxing! Mount Tai is known as Dongyue, and it is the first of the five mountains, so it is naturally extremely high!"

Lian Dong stared at Qin Chuan with both eyes, and said, "My subordinates want to ask the helper, is Mount Tai the highest in the world?"

Qin Chuan groaned slightly, and said: "There is a way that there are mountains outside the mountain, and there is a sky outside the sky, Mount Tai is naturally extremely high, as for whether it is the highest." I'm ashamed, my brother is lonely and unheard, and it's hard to answer Brother Lian!"

Lian Dong smiled, turned to look down the mountain, and stopped making a sound.

Elder Deng checked the surrounding terrain and said, "It's almost there! Helper, are we going to scout at night, or are we trying to sneak in now?"

Qin Chuan looked at the sun. frowned and said: "Saving soldiers is like fighting fires, without further ado!" Elder Deng shook his head and said: "I'm afraid that it will be easy to expose and hide during the day, and I hope that the helper will think twice!" Qin Chuan did not answer. Lian Dong had already clapped his hands and applauded: "What the helper said is that saving soldiers is like fighting a fire, how can you wait for half a day!"

Elder Deng still felt uneasy, and said that there was no shortage of masters in the Taishan Sect. If it is discovered, it will not delay a great event.

Qin Chuan said in his heart: "What Elder Deng said is also reasonable, but he doesn't enter the tiger's den. Got the tiger. He was hesitating, and suddenly heard Lian Dong say: "Helper, Elder Deng, it's better to let your subordinates go up first to have a look, and if you see anything wrong, you can sneak back immediately." Before Qin Chuan could answer, Elder Deng interjected: "It's okay, you must be careful!"

Lian Dong smiled slightly, hugged his fists to Qin and Deng, and floated up.

Qin Chuan wanted to explore the road first, but when he saw Lian Dong volunteering, he had to give up. Seeing that there was an uneasy look on his face, Elder Deng smiled and said, "Don't worry, the helper doesn't have to worry, his subordinates have grown up watching Lian Dong." This kid is clever, and finding the way is his housekeeping skill, so it doesn't hurt. Qin Chuan was relieved.

After a long time, Lian Dong floated back and said with a smile: "Creation, it's really creation!"

Qin Chuan asked, "What did Big Brother Lian see?"

Lian Dong said: "Taishan faction has started infighting, and they are arguing so much that they have no time to care about anything else." It's just that his subordinates searched inside and outside the Taoist temple, but there was no trace of Elder Wu!"

Elder Deng asked, "Do you know why the Taishan faction is making trouble?" Lian Dong shook his head and said: "There are many masters of the Taishan faction, and the subordinates dare not approach, so I don't know the details. Qin Chuan said, "Let's go and take a look!" Elder Deng said, "Let's act quietly and adapt to the situation." ”

At the moment, Liandong led the way in front, and the three of them arrived outside the Jade Emperor Temple. I saw two Taoist priests with long swords patrolling back and forth, although they said that they were patrolling and guarding, but the two of them looked lonely and had no sense of vigilance.

Lian Dong made a gesture, bowed down, and quietly walked around to the back of the view through the shape of the mountain tree. The three of them jumped silently into the temple, a few ups and downs, crossed the two major houses, and arrived at the back of a magnificent hall.

"Jade Emperor View" is built on the top of the Jade Emperor, leaning on the mountain, with a total of more than 10 houses of different sizes. Lian Dong took Qin and Deng to carry out light work, and jumped to the top of a magnificent hall.

The three of them crouched on the roof, observing the movement around them.

Qin Chuan saw that the huge Taoist temple was empty, and there were only three or five Taoist priests in a small courtyard, who were carrying firewood and water, and washing rice and vegetables, but they were the fire workers in the view, and they couldn't see a practitioner who knew kung fu, and he was curious, and suddenly heard someone in the hall arguing fiercely, although the voice was not very loud, but everyone's tone was obviously very angry.

His ears were so good that he listened attentively.

I only heard one person say indignantly: "Why don't you speak, can it be that my Taishan faction has disappeared into the rivers and lakes since then?" Master and Uncle Mu Xu have been exposed, and the rivers and lakes have now spread, and there is a way that is a lesson from the past, why don't we take it as a warning?"

The other person said angrily: "Shut up! Sanyuan Senior Nephew, what do you mean by this, Senior Brother Gu Xu's head is your master, and Senior Brother Mu Xuan is also your uncle, how can you say disrespectful words?"

The previous man snorted: "Uncle Ning Xu, I have always respected my teacher and Uncle Mu Xu, and I have never been disrespectful. However, Master defected to the Heavenly Dao Alliance and was willing to be the 'Heavenly Dao Messenger' who killed fellow martial artists, this move is really framing my Taishan faction for injustice! I believe that Master must have a hard time, but now that you have only been in charge for a few days, you have to act on the orders of the traitor surnamed Mu, wouldn't you repeat the mistakes of Master and Uncle Mu Xu?"

When Qin Chuan heard this, he gestured to Deng and Lian, signaled and waited for a while, and went to take a look first. When the two of them nodded their heads in understanding, they stood up, lightly swept over, and reached the window. The figure fell to the ground, and a "inverted bead curtain", hooked to the eaves, lightly pierced a hole in the pane paper, and looked inward.

Deng and Lian couldn't help but look at each other when they saw the helper show his wonderful skills, and they couldn't hide their surprise when they fell silently on the roof.

Qin Chuan looked at the window, and couldn't help but be slightly startled, only to see that the main hall was full of Taoist priests. There were about 100 people, each sitting cross-legged on a futon, around the two Taoist priests who stood in the middle of the argument. There were quite a few people in the hall, and apart from the sound of debate, the rest of the people were silent.

The two Taoist priests were arguing with each other, and Qin Chuan could hear from his voice that the one with a yellow crown and short beard, who was short and fat, was Ning Xu, and the one with a blue robe and a black face, a long body and wide arms was Sanyuan.

Ning Xu's face was swollen and red, and he was angry. He said sharply: "Sanyuan, what is your master's troubles? He is just trying to protect my Taishan faction! Do you want to look at the whole whole world like the Kongtong faction and the Iron Sword Sect, with all the dead and wounded, and the ancestral foundation will be destroyed in one fell swoop?"

Sanyuan said loudly: "Do you want to follow you from top to bottom?" Help the Heavenly Dao Alliance eradicate fellow martial artists? Uncle Ning Xu, how can a leader like you convince the public!"

Ning Xu's face turned pale with anger, and he said loudly: "It's the opposite." It's the other way around!"

Suddenly, I heard a person crying loudly and shouting: "My Taishan faction has always been chivalrous and righteous since the ancestor Guanri Zhenren founded the faction. For the benefit of the common people, I can't imagine that now it has become an evil sect, and it is worse than the demon sect back then?

Ning Xuan paused and reprimanded: "Nonsense! Senior Brother Tongxu, as a senior uncle, how can you follow the juniors to breathe out of your nostrils, it's just disrespectful for the old, so self-respecting!"

A black-faced Taoist stood up, it was Tongxu, he stretched out his sleeves to wipe his tears, and cried: "Woo, senior brother in charge, Mu Changfeng designated you to be the host of my Taishan faction, woo, you have forgotten the rules of the ancestor of this faction, woo, Sanyuan master and nephew are reasonable, you imprison fellow Taoists in the rivers and lakes, you are aiding and abusive, and you are trapping my Taishan faction in injustice!"

He accused Ning Xu while crying, crying sadly, and scolding very freely.

Qin Chuan listened to the words of "imprisoning fellow Taoists in the rivers and lakes", and was overjoyed in his heart: "Elder Wu, they are really trapped here! It turns out that Ning Xu, the new head of the Taishan Sect, is gathering the people of the sect and persuading everyone to obey the orders of the Heavenly Dao Alliance. These three elements and Tongxu are unwilling to rebel and do evil, but they have a lot of backbone. "I remembered that day Mu Changfeng sent the man in black on Liangshan to pass the order and let Ning Xu take over as the presiding officer of the Taishan faction. Thinking about it, Ning Xuzi had already been loyal to Mu Changfeng.

Guo listened to Ning Xu's sharp reprimand: "Senior Brother Tongxu, if you disturb people's hearts again, be disrespectful to this seat, and disturb my situation, don't blame Senior Brother for being ruthless!"

When he heard this, his cry was much lower, and he didn't dare to reply, but he still muttered softly.

Suddenly hearing a choking sound, Sanyuan pulled out his long sword and said loudly: "Uncles, uncles, brothers, brothers, brothers,

As soon as these words came out, there was a commotion in the hall. There are many righteous people in the group of thieves, and the Taishan faction is dignified and upright, and they should not succumb to the obscenity of the evil sect, let alone help the abuse, and do misdeeds.

Ning Xuan was shocked and angry, seeing that the crowd was surging and difficult to suppress, he was in charge of the portal for the first time, and his foundation was not solid, and when he encountered this change, he couldn't help but feel a burst of blue and white on his face.

The Taishan faction was shouting, and a figure jumped off the beam in the ground, before the person arrived, the sword came first, the blue light flashed, Sanyuan screamed, took two steps back, and a blood arrow in his chest spurted out like a spring. With a choking sound, the long sword in his hand fell to the ground, and his body also staggered, and he slowly fell.

There was one more person in the main hall.

Qin Chuan saw it clearly outside the hall, this person suddenly flew off the beam, and in the blink of an eye, he stabbed Sanyuan to death with a sword, and his shot was swift and incoherent. I saw him wearing a long sword in soap, a light veil and a mask, judging from his appearance, he was the famous black and white "Heavenly Messenger" on the rivers and lakes recently.

When the thieves saw this person, they all changed color.

Ning Xuan hurriedly stepped forward, bowed and saluted, and said in a trembling voice: "Poor Dao Ning Xuan has seen the envoy!"

The man in black returned his sword into the sheath, and said loudly: "Daoist Ning Xu, this seat was ordered by the alliance master to hand over your faction's 'silver silk dust' to you, and let you take charge of the Taishan portal, I can't imagine that you are so pustuated that you can't even discipline a junior teacher and nephew! Hehe, do you want the Taishan faction to be wiped out!"

Ning Xu's body trembled, and he said in a trembling voice: "It's the poor Dao who is incompetent, please calm the anger......! This is a heavy punishment for those who commit rebellion. ”

The man in black turned around, put his hands behind his back, and said coldly: "You are the head of the Taishan faction, and you can't even control a group of bull noses, what is it not waste! Okay, this seat wants to see, what are you going to do with these disobedient miscellaneous hairs?"

Cold sweat trickled down Ning Xu's forehead, and with a slight thought, with a sound of brushing, the long sword pointed at Tongxu, and shouted: "You dare to follow Sanyuan with many mouths and tongues, and if you commit the following crimes, you won't get out and die!"

He was frightened, mixed with the thieves, his face was pale, and he couldn't stop retreating, not daring to make a sound.

Ning Xuan pointed at the middle finger of the group and shouted: "You, you, and you, dare to be disrespectful to this master, get out quickly!" Those Taoist priests were afraid of the power of the "Heavenly Dao Messenger", and they changed color one after another, and they didn't dare to step forward to respond.

Ning Xuan saw that the group road was silent, and his heart was settled, so he stepped forward quickly, stretched out his hand and pulled Tong Xuan out of the group road, and threw it at the feet of the man in black.

His face was as colored as earth, trembling all over, and he was paralyzed to the ground.

Ning Xuan knew that if he wanted to calm the anger of the man in black, he must first kill Tongxu to show his loyalty, and thought that killing a hundred at this time would be enough to make other dissatisfied fellow disciples frightened from now on, and when he gritted his teeth, his left hand was obliquely leading, and the long sword in his right hand was handed out, and with a snort, a move "Sword pointed at Tiannan", and the tip of the sword stabbed towards Tongxu's throat.

Under the authority of the Heavenly Dao envoys, everyone is terrified, and who else dares to intervene?

The cold light flashed in the ground, and there was a soft sound of "ding", and the long sword in Ning Xu's hand was pierced and pierced in front of Tongxu's neck, and suddenly broke into two! (To be continued......)
