80. Burning Mountain Annihilates the Enemy (1)

Qin Chuan was taken aback and asked, "Is this true?How did Brother Yuanfu die?"

Zhao Jin's face was full of grief and indignation, and he said: "Brother Yuan was killed by someone who pierced his throat with a sharp object. After a pause, he muttered: "Helper, Elder Deng and Elder Xie guessed that Brother Yuan was killed by a sword like a hole flute or a flute!"

Qin Chuan thought for a moment, his face changed, and he lost his voice: "You mean...... It is very likely that someone from Jiangnan Yuxiao did it?" Zhao Jin nodded.

Qin Chuan was silent for a long time, and said slowly: "Bring Brother Yuan's body to life!" Zhao Jin responded: "Yes." When he saw that the helper stopped talking, he quietly withdrew. When he arrived at the door of the hall, he suddenly turned around and hesitated: "Helper, do you want to send ......someone else to send a letter to Shaolin Temple?"

Qin Chuan waved his hand and said, "Since someone intercepted and killed on the road, how can you and I bear to let our brothers die in vain." The matter of sending the letter will be discussed in the long run!" Zhao Jin nodded and withdrew.

Qin Chuan thought of Yuanfu's death, burst into tears, and came out of his mind, only then did he remember that Mrs. Meiyue was still beside him. He stretched out his sleeves to wipe away his tears, and said gloomily: "One of the brothers in the junior gang unfortunately died, and I couldn't help it for a while, and I was so sneering, please forgive me!"

Meiyue Master proclaimed the Buddha's name too low, closed his hands together, and said: "Poor Ni took the liberty to ask, is it for that person that the Qin gang leader sent a letter to Shaolin at this time?"

Qin Chuan was taken aback, and secretly thought: "Another extremely smart woman!" It turned out that Yi Wanyu's idea that day was to ask the Baixi Gang or Dafeng Fort to send someone to Shaolin Temple to deliver a letter, and the letter only said that he made a special trip to ask the abbot of Lingdu to ask for peace, and nothing else. In fact, when the person who sent the letter saw the abbot of Lingdu, he deliberately tried to reveal the conspiracy of Jiangnan Yuxiao Villa to the people of Shaolin Temple. As soon as this news comes out, Mu Changfeng will naturally know.

With the supernatural powers of Mu Changfeng and Mo Feixie and others, they will naturally distinguish the truth of this news. Once Mu Changfeng's energy was focused on dealing with the Jade Xiao Villa. Then Shangguan Yu's father and son can't do it as a "fisherman who sits on the fisher's profits".

If this news is publicized in a big way on the rivers and lakes, one will make Shangguan Yu and his son stop as soon as possible, and second, Mu Changfeng and Mo Feixie and others may not believe it. Therefore, Yi Wanyu's plan is true and false, so that the person who sent the letter deliberately concealed it, wanting to cover it up, and through the abbot of Lingdu and others, he naturally thought of Jiangnan Yuxiao Villa.

This intermediate link is not difficult to say, it is not easy to say, but the Meiyue master only observes words and colors, and then guesses that eight or nine are not far from ten. How could this not make Qin Chuan stunned?

Meiyue Shitai smiled faintly. Said: "It just so happened that the poor nun was about to go to Shaolin Temple to visit the abbot of Lingdu. This matter will be handed over to the poor nuns, right? It's just that the stakes are very high, and I also ask the Qin gang leader to tell me the details of the situation. ”

Qin Chuan was stunned, and then he told him about the conspiracy of the Shangguan family and his son that he heard outside Shangqiu City that day, and said that Xu Jian and Yi Wanyu had a plan to make Mu Changfeng and others suspect the Shangguan father and son. gloomily said: "Originally, the Yuanfu brothers were alert and capable, and they were the best candidates to do this. I didn't think he would be unfortunate ......"

After Meiyue Shitai heard Shangguan Yu's ambitions. Very shocked. After a while, he said slowly: "It's another Mu Changfeng!" and said to Qin Chuan: "The matter of sending the letter to Shaolin will be handed over to the poor nun to handle." Once the conspiracy of the Shangguan family and his son is revealed to the world and becomes the target of the rivers and lakes, the danger of the Central Plains martial arts will be solved!"

Qin Chuan said: "Brother Yuanfu was killed. Most likely, the enemy is aware of it. Shitai, go to Shaolin Temple, dangerous rebirth, you must not be careless!"

Meiyue Shitai nodded and said, "Poor Ni will get it." Qin Gang Leader. Please treat Zhuoma and Lan'er well!" Ignoring Qin Chuan's dissuasion, he immediately took Zhuang Yimin, Wen Zhufeng and other Emei sect disciples to resign from Dafeng Castle and go to Shaolin Temple for the first time.

Qin Chuan was powerless to stop him, and when he staggered out of the door, he had already disappeared, so he had to sigh in vain.

A few days passed in a flash. This night, he gossiped with Zhuoma and Yi Wanyu, and seeing that it was not early, he got up to send the second daughter out. He had just stepped into the room from the courtyard, when suddenly there was a figure in front of him, and there was one more person.

Qin Chuan was stunned for a moment, then he was overjoyed, knelt down on his knees, kowtowed again and again, and shouted, "Master, your old man is here!"

I saw a person dressed in a bamboo hat, dressed in a gray robe, sitting in a chair and not moving. It is the master of his own Emei Mountain.

The man in the cloth waited for Qin Chuan to kowtow three times, smiled slightly, and said, "Get up! Qin Chuan, you seem to know the origin of your teacher's identity, right?"

Qin Chuan stood up, walked closer, respectfully held the pot and poured tea, handed it with both hands, and said with a smile: "It was my father who told the apprentice." Also, the abbot of Lingdu of Shaolin Temple and the senior monks of the Dharma Academy and the Heart Meditation Hall have also mentioned the past of the master!"

The man in the cloth was slightly stunned, and after a while, he took off the bamboo hat on his head, put it on the table, and sighed abruptly: "The deceased is like this, what can the husband say?

Under the candlelight, Qin Chuan saw that the man in the cloth had white hair, a clear appearance, and a pair of eyes that were shining, clear and extraordinary. However, it is difficult to tell the real age, and it is estimated that he is between 60 and 90 years old. This was the first time he saw Master for what he was, and he was overjoyed for a while, smiling and speechless.

The clothed man smiled slightly and said, "My surname is Xiang, Xiang Ting!"

Qin Chuan came back to his senses, nodded again and again, and said with a smile: "Xiang, Master Xiang is good! I, the disciple has finally seen your old man's true face!"

Xiang Ting, the man in the cloth, laughed, took a sip of hot tea, put down the porcelain cup, and said, "Stretch out your hand!"

Qin Chuan was puzzled, and stretched out his hand as he said.

Xiang Ting stretched out his fingers to check his pulse, pondered for a moment, flipped his right hand, and there was already a golden round pill the size of a pigeon's egg in his palm, and said, "Take it quickly!"

Qin Chuan took it and swallowed it. Xiang Ting nodded and said with a smile: "This 'Tong Rhino Earth Dragon Pill' was obtained from the hands of a strange senior in Bailu Mountain in the Western Regions, and it is a divine object for detoxification and healing, and the effect is definitely not under the thousand-year-old fire dragon ginseng of the 'Nine Songs and Yellow River' Qu Guang. After you take it, you need to stop less to have good luck and slowly dissolve the medicinal properties, and it is expected that the internal strength will be restored tomorrow morning. Or from now on, the purity of the skill is expected to be no longer under Mu Changfeng!"

Qin Chuan's spirits perked up, his eyebrows widened, and he smiled, "Master, it turns out that you have made a special trip to send elixir to your disciple!"

Xiang Ting shook his head and said, "No, I'm here to beg you!"

Qin Chuan was stunned. Qi said: "Master, your old man is a dignified demon sect...... The leader of the Seven Star Sect, a generation of great heroes, with vast magical powers, what else in the world can be difficult to defeat you? How can you ask for a disciple?"

Xiang Ting smiled faintly and said, "Big heroes also have old times. Your father is not a big hero, I went to see him quietly, even if Hu Yitu can heal his body, I am afraid that his peerless magic skills are no longer there!" said a long sigh, full of emotion.

Qin Chuan heard that Xiang Ting quietly went to the back mountain. After thinking about it for a while, he thought that with the skills of the master, he silently entered the secret room to visit his father and the Gu gang leader, Hu Yitu and the second elder of the beggar gang were unaware at this moment, not to mention the group of Dafeng Castle and the beggar gang disciples who were guarding the periphery. The only person who can come and go in the Great Wind Castle as if entering a no-man's land is this "Ten-Faced Demon King" Xiang Sect Master.

Come to think of it. A flash of inspiration flashed through his mind. Suddenly realized, he shouted, "Master, I understand! It turned out to be your old man who rescued me from under the cow's oversized iron spine with three stones in the Hundred Flowers Valley of Bishan that day!"

Xiang Ting snorted, glared at him, and scolded: "In vain, you are still my apprentice of the 'Ten-Faced Demon King'." Don't you know that people's hearts are sinister, and you don't know your face?" After a pause, he sneered: "Could it be that the evil is my old subordinate." This person's wrist can be hidden from the world. How can you hide it from the old man? Although your skills are not weak, you are not enough to guard against others. I'm not worried about you!"

Qin Chuan's chest was hot, he stuck out his tongue, pretended to make a grimace, and said with a smile: "It's useless to be a disciple, when it's critical, you have to rely on the master to save your life." Otherwise, I will see the king of Hades in a daze, and I will still be a fool!"

Xiang Ting said with a straight face: "Hmph, you are smart and resolute, willing to endure hardships, and have good qualifications, which is a good material for practicing martial arts." I chose you in the first place, and I also took a fancy to this. But you have a fatal weakness, and if you don't correct it immediately, I'm afraid that you will still suffer in the future!"

Qin Chuan smiled and said, "Please give me advice!"

Xiang Ting shook his head and said slowly: "It's that you are too soft-hearted, not ruthless enough, and too kind of a woman!"

Qin Chuan was silent and lowered his head.

Xiang Ting picked up the teacup again, took a sip of water, and said leisurely: "Fortunately, my three apprentices and daughters-in-law are very smart, all of them are Lan Xinhui and exquisite, with them by your side, I can rest assured!"

Qin Chuan's face turned red, scratched his scalp, and said with a smile: "Master, your old man seems to know everything about me!"

Xiang Tingxuan smiled and said: "I only accepted you as an apprentice in my life, so naturally I have to care more!"

smiled, suddenly his face turned grim, stared into Qin Chuan's eyes, and asked, "Why don't you want to be the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance?" Do you know that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and the opportunity must not be lost, and the time will never come again!"

Qin Chuan sighed, spread his hands, and said, "The disciple doesn't want to be the master of the martial arts. I only hope that the various factions in the Central Plains will go with the flow, and not try to force unification like the 'Heavenly Dao Alliance' to satisfy the ambitions of a few people." The disciple once said, I have no interest in dominating the martial arts!"

Xiang Ting stared at Qin Chuan's eyes intently, and after a long time, he nodded slightly, looked up to the sky and smiled: "Good, good! Haha, my apprentice didn't harvest it in vain!"

He laughed for a while, and then said, "What I ask you to do is that one day, after I die, when the Seven Star Sect is in danger, please take action to find a way to resolve it." Seeing that Qin Chuan opened his mouth to speak, he immediately waved his hand and said indifferently: "There is life and death, and there is no immortality in the world." Even if your Peng Zu in Xuzhou, it is said that he lived to be 760 years old, wouldn't he also die in the end?"

Qin Chuan pondered for a moment and nodded.

Xiang Ting breathed a long sigh of relief and continued: "The Protestant master of this sect chose you and another person when he first chose me. But I secretly observed your words and deeds and your character in the past six months. Well, you are indifferent by nature, and you regard fame and fortune like dung. Even the leader of a decent sect has no intention of staying for a long time, let alone the leader of the Demon Sect of the Left Sect, and the other person is the right envoy of the Light of this sect, and I have decided to pass on to him in a year's time. This person is also a loyal and chivalrous man, and he has a reputation in this religion, but his martial arts are slightly inferior to you, and fortunately, his character is acceptable, and his ambition is not big. I don't think he will covet the Central Plains Martial Arts, but I'm worried that one day some people in the Central Plains Martial Arts who hate the Seven Star Sect will gather together and attack this sect!"

Qin Chuan silently listened to Xiang Ting's words, and lowered his head to think: "Master Xiang must be worried about the recurrence of the merger of the Three Gangs and Six Factions and the Seven Star Sect. Well, that's not to be left untouched. ”

Xiang Ting sighed and said, "I'm afraid that there will be characters like Mu Changfeng who will be unfavorable to this sect in the future. Of course, it's better not to have that day!"

Qin Chuan raised his head and said, "Master, the Seven Star Sect has been passed down for hundreds of years, sometimes strong and sometimes weak, and the relationship with the various factions in the Central Plains is also good and bad. I heard that when it is strong, it is enough to turn the world upside down and command the world. But in the final analysis, it is still a sideshow, and the world regards it as a demon, so it is called 'Demon Sect'. Master was an elite child of Shaolin in the north and south back then, why didn't he go on a smooth road. Traveled to the Western Regions in a remote area and became the leader of the Seven Star Sect?"

Xiang Ting looked at the flickering candle flame and sighed: "After I left Shaolin, I wandered the world and traveled around the world. Everywhere to pay homage to the world's top masters, learn martial arts. For several years, there was no rival. But one winter. I was in Persia in a duel with a master. missed for a while, and the master was seriously injured and fell to the ground, and later died. The relatives and friends of the master avenged him, and sent the master to hunt me down everywhere. I was finally outnumbered, seriously wounded, and rescued by a senior master. The master brought me back from Persia to the Western Regions to heal my wounds. and let his daughter take good care of me. ”

"Later, after I recovered from my injuries, I learned that the senior master was the leader of the Demon Sect. Later, I married his daughter, and when his old man died, I succeeded him as the head of the sect. ”

He said this. Xiang Qin Chuan smiled bitterly: "I practiced Shaolin magic hard back then, but I was too strong and diligent, and I hurt my body. It's because I have no children with your wife!"

Qin Chuan heard Xiang Ting even talk about such private matters to himself, obviously treating himself as a close relative. Nodding at the moment, Zhengse said: "Master, don't worry, I promise you that I will never let people hurt the Seven Star Sect!"

Xiang Ting shook his head and said, "Chuan'er, you still don't understand what I mean. I'm asking you to monitor the movements of the Seven Star Sect and the Central Plains Martial Arts. If there is an act that involves life and death, and that harms the common people, you must take action. Speaking of this, he glared at Qin Chuan again and said, "Actually, the establishment of your Central Plains Great Wind Fort is not without this intention. In particular, Ling Zun broke into the Star Cliff Heavenly Palace alone, which was a chivalrous move to solve difficulties. Ling Zun persuaded the Central Plains Martial Arts and the Seven Star Sect to retreat on the spot to avoid the scourge of annihilation, and made an alliance to stop the fighting, and the two sides would never offend each other. ”

Qin Chuan lowered his head and pondered: "Master Xiang's meaning is to let the good and evil try their best to maintain a situation of mutual non-aggression!" Raising his head, he said with a smile: "Master, the apprentice understands!"

Xiang Ting smiled faintly and said, "Good apprentice, with your words, I am relieved." In fact, I have kept my promise for all these years as a teacher, and I have never used the 'Great Compassion Xuangong' in my life, but I have seen that Shaolin Peerless Learning has been carried forward in your hands and benefited the people, and I have been comforted by my old age, and I have no regrets in this life!" After a pause, he said: "Mu Changfeng was too anxious back then. If he can restrain himself, what harm will it do if the position of the leader of the Seven Star Sect is passed on to him? Alas, providence, providence!"

Master Qin Chuan knew that Mu Changfeng had always regarded Mu Changfeng as the best candidate for the sect leader in his heart, and said, "The current Heavenly Dao Alliance, compared to the Seven Star Sect back then, is not much better!" Xiang Ting nodded, thoughtfully, and said, "I gave you a booklet to break the demons in your heart, have you ever finished cultivating?" Qin Chuan said: "It has been practiced." Xiang Ting said: "Very good." In this way, all kinds of evil exercises and mental methods of Mu Changfeng will hurt you very much. ”

When he said this, he glanced at Qin Chuan and said with a smile: "I have also seen Mu Changfeng's daughter once, and it is indeed a flower-like girl. Qin Chuan, speaking of which, Mu Changfeng should be your quasi-father-in-law, between your son-in-law, do you want you to die or die?" Haha!" Qin Chuan's face turned red, and he smiled without saying a word.

The master and apprentice talked about it, and they didn't feel that time had passed. Suddenly, I could only hear three more drums outside the door. Xiang Tinghuo stood up and said, "In the matter of the Central Plains Martial Arts, the Seven Star Sect will no longer intervene in its promise, so you can do it yourself." It's not too early, it's time for the teacher to leave?"

Qin Chuan hurriedly said: "It's rare for the master to come to the Central Plains, why don't you spend a few more days in the Great Wind Castle? The disciple should do his best to be a landlord, and he should also do a little bit of apprenticeship, so that he can serve the master to enjoy the mountains and rivers and enjoy the blessings of Qingfu!"

Xiang Ting laughed and praised: "Good boy, your filial piety is the teacher's heart." It's just that as the saying goes: 'Build a long shed for thousands of miles, there is no feast that will not be dispersed', and no matter how long you get together, you will eventually be separated. As a teacher, seeing you break through the masters of different races and shine in the martial arts of the Central Plains, it is enough to wish. Alright, it's time for me to go back to the helm!" shook his body and went out.

Qin Chuan chased out of the door and came to the courtyard, under the hazy moonlit night, how could there be a figure of Xiang Ting?

Suddenly, Xiang Ting's voice sounded in his ears: "Chuan'er, I don't like the scene of parting, don't chase anymore!" Qin Chuan remembered that the master was old, and this time he went to the vast mountains and clouds, thousands of miles away, and he didn't know when he could see each other again. Thinking of the grace of eight years of art teaching on Mount Emei, my heart was overwhelmed with attachment, my eyes were red, and I choked up: "Master!"

But I heard Xiang Ting say with the technique of "thousands of miles of sound transmission": "Chuan'er, you have to remember that Mencius said: 'If you enter, you will not be able to be a soldier, and if you go out, you will be invincible to foreign patients, and the country will perish'." Of course, my Seven Star Divine Sect must have 'enemy foreign troubles', and so does the Central Plains Martial Arts!" (to be continued......)
