[Comprehensive martial arts] Wuji his brother

Liu Zhengfeng praised: "Heroic boy, well-deserved reputation." Inviting the two of them to take their seats, Zhang Songxi had reserved the first place on the left side of the hall early on, and Zhang Wuzhang was in second place.

After the two of them sat down, another distinguished guest arrived, Liu Zhengfeng rushed to greet them, and the servant served tea.Zhang Wuzhang held the cup but didn't drink it, he said with a smile, "Master He is a guest, why did he sit on the right hand side?"

Zhang Songxi paused for a moment. In terms of personal relationship, he and Liu Zhengfeng are naturally better, and they can be a little more relaxed in terms of etiquette. The ranking of these banquets is the most important. Thinking about He Taichong coming from Kunlun, he is also in the position of head of the sect , should sit in the most honored seat.

The etiquette of respecting left and right is different in each dynasty and generation. Before the Yuan Dynasty, the tradition of respecting the left has lasted for thousands of years, and the Yuan Dynasty respected the right.It's just that these martial arts people, in order to show their desire to resist the Yuan Dynasty, mostly still follow the Song system, with left as righteous and right as obedient.

Zhang Songxi knew it well, considering all aspects of human relations and etiquette, He Taichong should be seated in the most respected seat in the hall, while Liu Zhengfeng used the Yuan system.

He pondered for a while, then Fang softly said: "Mr. Liu's family has a great career, so it is inevitable to have some concerns." Most of the people who resisted the Yuan Dynasty were reckless men, and those with bare feet were not afraid of wearing shoes, but Liu Zhengfeng, a powerful landlord like him, could live in Hengyang. The city is so powerful, so it is natural that it has something to do with the local officials. It is also true that he dare not publicly express his anti-Yuan intentions.

"Needless to mention Mingjiao, Wudang has already expressed its attitude. Those who are in the hinterland of the Central Plains, let alone the Five Sacred Mountains, even Shaolin avoids talking about it, and just deal with it coldly." Zhang Wuzhang laughed, "Why did the court earlier We should start with the Five Sacred Mountains and take Mount Tai first. Isn’t it because of their ambiguous attitude that they tempted the court to win over the centrists first? They failed to save themselves, but were treated as bullying people instead, so it’s better to fight boldly from the very beginning.”

"Hush." ​​Zhang Songxi didn't want to talk too much, so he smiled wryly and remained silent.The disciples of each sect said in private that no one did not mention the expulsion of the Tartars, and no one killed the Yuan soldiers who killed the people in anger, but there are really few sects who dare to openly oppose the Yuan.

Zhang Wuzhang took a sip of hot tea and asked him to say, it can't be all blamed on these sects for disregarding the righteousness of the nation, everyone's position is upright in private, but the five mountains add up to only a few disciples, if the court is annoyed, the army will be all It only took a few minutes for Jianghu to be removed from the list.

He was very fortunate that the Mingjiao had a large number of people, and an army had already formed a climate, which was able to confront the imperial court head-on.Zhang Wuzhang drank most of a bowl of tea and put the teacup on the table.

The boy who came to refill the tea was not the same one before, Zhang Wuzhang drank a few more cups, causing Zhang Songxi to laugh and say, "But the breakfast was too salty?"

"Oh, that plate of small pickles is very delicious, nephew couldn't help stretching out his chopsticks a few more times." Zhang Wuzhang drank the tea in his cup, got up and said, "I made Si uncle laugh, just sit down, I'll go Come." Ask the tea boy to take me to change clothes.

Afraid of his embarrassment, Zhang Songxi waited for him to leave before laughing out loud, thinking that after all, they are still children, and it is normal to be greedy, but they are brothers in this regard.

Zhang Wuji followed the tea boy to the latrine, and when there was no one around, he asked, "How is it?"

The tea boy stuffed a ball of paper over and said in a low voice: "Master, the distribution of the residences of everyone in Liu's residence has been found out. Mrs. Liu Zhengfeng and her two sons and one daughter are all in the residence. Two apprentices, Mi Weiyi and Xiang Danian Come to help, and Qu Feiyan, the granddaughter of Qu Yang, the elder of the Sun Moon Sect, is also here. There are 45 servants, young and old."

Zhang Wuzhang glanced at the ball of paper, on which was drawn a detailed distribution map of the buildings in the Liu Mansion, and said softly, "You have worked hard these past few years."

The tea boy was excited and said: "If it wasn't for the great kindness of the leader, my family would have starved to death in Fengyang. I have this blessing to serve the leader. The whole family can only be grateful. How dare I say hard work?"

Zhang Wuzhang encouraged him a few words, told him to slip out when there was a bit of confusion during the welcome, and he would have his own arranged staff to meet him and send him back to reunite with his family.

After the tea boy left, he went to the latrine for a stroll, and when he came out, he saw Linghu Chong standing at the gate of the small garden looking in.Zhang Wuzhang greeted: "Brother Chong!"

"I went to look for you and found no one. I heard from Master that you are going this way. I haven't seen you for a long time. Let's take a look." After Linghu Chong said, he walked forward in three steps at the same time, "Don't be a bad person. Stomach."

They haven't seen each other alone for a long time, last time they only had a face-to-face meeting in the western suburbs of Hengyang City and then separated, this time they had nothing to say to each other.

After walking a few steps with their heads bowed, Zhang Wuzhang finally said: "The one who was with me that day was not a sister from my mother's family, it's just that it's not convenient to reveal her identity."

Linghu Chong smiled and said: "I know there must be something else hidden, if it's inconvenient to say it, don't say it, the two of us still care about it?"

"Then let me tell you something else." Zhang Wuzhang pulled his ear and said a few words close to him.

Linghu Chong was a little charming at first, but after hearing what he said, his expression changed, and he said in great surprise: "There is such a thing? Uncle Liu, he..." He glanced at the front hall, and lowered his voice, " Do many people know?"

"It's hard to say how many people know about it. Anyway, Zuo Lengchan of the Songshan School got the news that his [-]th Taibao is coming here aggressively." Zhang Wuzhang said, "It's not convenient for me on such an occasion. If you get too close to Mount Hua, you should privately tell Head Yue to let him think about how to stand firm."

No matter what Linghu Chong thinks, he finds it difficult. If it is said that there is no balance between good and evil, Liu Zhengfeng has made friends with the elders of the Sun Moon Sect in private, but it is a big mistake.But Liu Zhengfeng was about to retreat into the Jianghu, and never asked about martial arts since then. Seeing Songshan's menacing appearance, I'm afraid it would be difficult to be kind today.

He felt a headache after thinking about it for a while, and thought he should ask his master before he said, "Master Liu is naturally doing such a secret thing very secretly. I don't think even his senior disciples may know it. How come the Songshan sect?" To be able to detect it?"

As soon as Linghu Chong finished speaking, Zhang Wuzhan's eyes lit up suddenly, he was overjoyed, and said hesitantly, "I remembered that Zuo Lengchan had planted Lao Denuo as a spy in Huashan, and that's why I thought of this." Of course, Zhang Wuzhang also found out, so Linghu Chong didn't bother him, but he only focused on grabbing Songshan's braid.

Zhang Wuzhang really didn't expect to make another article out of this, he was overjoyed, he smiled and slapped each other three times, Fang said: "This idea is really good."

"Although Master Zuo is the leader of the Five Sacred Sacred Mountains, even I, the head of Mount Hua, wanted to force him to give up to Master Feng, and now he wants to interfere with Master Liu washing his hands in the golden basin. This hand is too long." Linghu Chong said sincerely, "My master will definitely not let me stand out, brother, help me slap their faces hard."

Even if the Huashan Sword Sect and the Qi Sect have merged now, under Feng Qingyang's dealings, the two parties get along fairly well, but that's not the case when Yue Buqun was so squeezed that he almost had to give up his position as the head of the sect It was easily uncovered.From Feng Qingyang's point of view, Tong Jianzong's share is naturally exempted. The Songshan School is still very unpleasant to see from the top and bottom of Huashan, but it's just that they can't get back the position for the time being.

The two walked out talking and laughing, just as Liu Zhengfeng was leading a girl in a green long gown walking in, when he first saw them, he turned to cover the girl halfway, and said with a smile: "It's rude to not take good care of you." gone."

Zhang Wuzhang only glanced at the girl before Liu Zhengfeng said: "This is the handkerchief from my Jinger, she came to congratulate her today, the little girl ran to the hall playfully, please sit down, I will send her off first go back."

Linghu Chong watched him leave, thinking of Liu Zhengfeng's panicked expression when he saw the two of them for the first time, he asked, "What's the origin of this girl?"

"I'm afraid it's Qu Yang's little granddaughter, it's not like he's lying when he said that he entered the front hall by mistake." Zhang Wuzhang didn't care, and signaled Linghu Chong to go first, he waited on the spot for a while, and saw Liu Zhengfeng come out again.

Liu Zhengfeng was quite surprised that he was still waiting outside, he walked forward as if nothing had happened, and greeted him: "The auspicious time is coming, Zhang Shaoxia will come with me."

Zhang Wuzhang didn't move his feet, he stared at him and said, "A few days ago, this junior caught Tian Boguang, the only traveler in Wanli outside Hengyang City, and I heard him tell an interesting story."

Liu Zhengfeng was baffled by what he heard, and thought of the rumors in the world that this person was extremely thoughtful, don't see anything, he hurriedly braced himself to deal with it, and pretended to be interested: "What interesting things can this notorious flower picker tell?"

"When he was picking flowers in his early years, he fell in love with a beautiful woman. When he was going to do something wrong, the woman said that she was a prostitute, who had contracted a serious disease early and died soon. Before she died, she didn't want to harm another person. Tian Boguang Telling her to be frightened, she returned disappointed, and after thinking about it later, she realized that the woman was just trying to get away at a critical moment." Zhang Wuzhang asked, "Mr. Liu, what do you think of this woman's actions?"

Liu Zhengfeng said slowly: "Liu only admires this woman's quick wit and ability to hide her self-defilement."

Zhang Wuzhang asked again: "If Mister also enters this situation, are you willing to defile yourself and take refuge like this? The lives of Mister's family are at stake. As long as you admit that you are in collusion with the Sun Moon Demon Sect or the imperial court, the crisis will be resolved by itself. It's just Mister." Your personal reputation has completely fallen to the ground, are you willing?"

The original work of "Swordsman" is suspected to be the Ming Dynasty, anyway, it is a peaceful era, Liu Zhengfeng bought an official from the court to defile himself, but now he is at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, it involves national integrity, and it is too inappropriate to have a relationship with the court up.

Liu Zhengfeng did not expect that there was such a method to defile himself. Hearing this, he thought his focus was on the "Sun Moon Demon Sect", and he was sure that he had found out something, and said boldly: "Actually, people live in the world, and their reputation is nothing but something outside the body. The most important thing is that relatives and friends gather together happily, so what if they are criticized by thousands of people? Liu’s reputation is more important than Liu’s life, but it is not as good as the lives of my wife and children.”

You risked the lives of your wife and children, but nothing compares to your confidant feelings with Qu Yang.Zhang Wuzhang said: "Mr. Liu misunderstood, I really want to blackmail something with this, if you have this decision, I will know what to do." Then he ignored him and walked into the hall.

Liu Zhengfeng thought that he had admitted his friendship with Qu Yang in a disguised form, and the situation was irreversible, but unexpectedly he left like this, feeling uneasy in his heart, and stood there for a long while before regaining his composure, walked out the door with a forced smile, looked around, But Zhang Wuzhang's figure was no longer there, and Zhang Songxi's lower head was empty.

Liu Zhengfeng looked around again, confirmed that Zhang Wuzhang had left, and was about to knock Zhang Songxi sideways, but heard two firecrackers crackling.

He knew that the auspicious time had come, and he couldn't delay any longer. He took a deep breath, walked forward, and said in a clear voice: "All senior heroes, all good friends, all of you have come from afar, Liu Zhengfeng really puts gold on his face, thank you do..."

After Liu Zhengfeng finished his opening remarks, he broke his sword and swore that he would never intervene in the affairs of Jianghu. Amidst the voices of the crowd, he walked to the golden basin, rolled up his sleeves, and was about to put it in, but he heard a stern shout from outside the door: "And live!"

It turned out that it was Ding Mian and others from the Songshan School who appeared holding the Five Sacred Sacred Flags. Linghu Chong stood behind Yue Buqun and listened carefully. He saw that this group of people really revealed the friendship between Liu Zhengfeng and Qu Yang, the elder of the Sun Moon Demon Sect, and even won Liu Zhengfeng and Qu Yang were forced to sever ties with nearly [-] members of the Liu family.

He estimated that it was almost done, quietly retreated from the lobby, came to the street, set off a firework in the sky, then entered as if nothing had happened, and stood still behind Yue Buqun again.

At this time, Fei Bin was shaking the Five Sacred Mountains flag in his hand, and shouted loudly: "Taishan sent senior brother Tianmen, Huashan sent senior brother Yue, Hengshan sent senior master Dingyi, Hengshan sent all senior brothers and nephews, the leader of Zuo has a command: come from righteousness and evil. Not at odds, the Devil's Cult and my Five Mountains Sword Sect have a deep hatred, and we cannot stand together. Liu Zhengfeng makes friends with bandits and joins the enemy. Anyone who belongs to my Five Mountains' sect, we will kill them together! Those who receive the order, please stand on the left!"

Right after saying this, Tianmen and the others were still hesitating, when they heard firecrackers going off outside and loud music, everyone was surprised, thinking that they were about to die here when they saw that Liu's house was full of people, how could someone act like this ?

But I saw a group of people entering, the leader was wearing an official uniform, staggering, his face was full of drunkenness, he glanced left and right as soon as he entered, and saw that there were no people holding swords in the room, he only said to Liu Zhengfeng: "The imperial decree has arrived, Liu Zhengfeng listens to the decree !” Another man dressed as a yamen servant half-kneeled on the ground, holding a tray with both hands.

Liu Zhengfeng was also puzzled by Monk Zhang Er, he had a good relationship with the local officials, but if the imperial decree was involved, it would not be too much, besides, the official had never met.While he hesitated, seeing the official wink at him, he thought of the inexplicable words Zhang Wuzhang said.

He had never had any friendship with that Red Scarf Sect Master Zhang, but for Liu Zhengfeng, the situation could never be worse than the current situation.With a narrow worldly vision, everyone in the Five Sacred Mountains could not understand his confidantship with Brother Qu through music. Once they obeyed the Five Sacred Banners, everyone in the Liu family would be killed.

Liu Zhengfeng was fearless at this time, shook his robe, bent his knees, knelt down and said, "Liu Zhengfeng is here, long live my emperor!"

The official lifted the yellow silk from the tray, took out the scroll and recited it, it turned out that the governor of Hunan granted Liu Zhengfeng the post of general.Although the people present were all prominent figures in the rivers and lakes, it was the first time that they saw the scene of the decree being issued. Seeing the official shouting and hugging, full of official air, the process was also very orderly, very bluffing, no one doubted him, Standing there blankly, I didn't know what to do, I just felt that what happened today was really inexplicable, and I couldn't laugh or cry.

The officials ignored them, and after Liu Zhengfeng held the "imperial decree" in both hands, he led the crowd away.

Liu Zhengfeng himself was also in a dream, holding the imperial decree and still thinking about it, when suddenly he heard a loud voice: "Master, Liu Zhengfeng is now a general of the imperial court, we should kill this dog official!"

He turned his head and looked, but it was Huashan Linghu Chong. Liu Zhengfeng knew that he was even friends with Zhang Wuzhang. After hearing him say this, he came to his senses and said angrily: "Bold madman, you Five Sacred Sword Sect are going to openly agree with Zhang Wuzhang. Is Yuan Ting challenging?"

This was what they discussed. Yue Buqun pondered for a while, and Fang pretended to be annoyed: "Chong'er, no matter who Junior Brother Liu associates with, he is the elder of your sect. How can you call him by his name directly? I, Huashan Seven Why do you give up the first ring?"

Linghu Chong hastily knelt down, and said with a sad face: "The first commandment is to deceive the master and destroy the ancestors, and disrespect the elders. This disciple knows his mistake. I hope the master will forgive me!"

Yue Buqun said: "When I go back to Mount Hua, I will punish you again as a teacher!" Although he didn't mention the imperial court, he only scolded Linghu Chong for calling him by his first name, but everyone with a discerning eye knew that Mr. Yue was cowardly.

Yue Buqun was not the only one who was intimidated, even Lu Bai, Fei Bin and other people from the Songshan faction couldn't help looking at Ding Mian, who was in charge, waiting for him to come up with an idea.

Ding Mian was very troubled, never imagined that Liu Zhengfeng would not spare his feathers so much, and wanted to seek the position of a small general.But even an official the size of a sesame mung bean is a serious court official and eats public meals.If they killed Liu Zhengfeng today, it would be a flagrant rebellion. The Songshan faction only has more than [-] people, can they withstand the court's anger?

Zhang Songxi looked around, he had already seen that although the official was pretending to be swaying, he walked steadily, obviously possessed high-level martial arts, and was definitely not a lustful person.When the official blinked at him, he still didn't understand anything.

When Ding Mian and others forced the other four mountains to stand in line, he had already drawn his sword, and he just waited to see that there was no room for change, so he fought side by side with Liu Zhengfeng, but now he let out a sigh of relief and watched the show with peace of mind up.

Thinking that Zhang Wuzhang had whispered to Tianmen for a while before leaving, he glanced in the direction of Taishan School.I saw Tianmen's blushing face became even redder, Ding Mian made a hoarse voice, jumped out and said, "Why, Songshan faction doesn't want to pursue Junior Brother Liu's crime of 'associating with bandits and becoming an enemy'?"

In the past, Taishan was attacked by Yuan soldiers headed by the two elders Xuanming, thanks to Zhang Wuzhang, Linghu Chong and Mo Da's help, Tianmen is impulsive and extremely loyal, so Zhang Wuzhang asked him to come forward to sing good faces, and he agreed .Although Liu Zhengfeng and Mo Da had been at odds for a long time, they were brothers from the same school. The Songshan faction was so blatantly persecuting them that the Hengshan faction didn't take it seriously.

Ding Mian felt that riding a tiger was hard to get off, and seeing another person appeared, he felt a headache, and thought that your Taishan faction had killed many Yuan soldiers a year ago, even if it wasn't an open conspiracy, it is not far away.Taishan can naturally not care, but his Songshan faction has not offended the court to such a degree, is it really going to tear his face completely today?

Although he is the number two figure in the Songshan School, second only to Zuo Lengchan, he feels that he has no right to make a decision, even if Zuo Lengchan is here, he needs to think carefully, how can he make a light decision?

But Tianmen kept pressing each other with words, and some of the heroes were not from the Wuyue Sword Sect, and they were not bullshit Wuyue Lingqi.Since they had a good relationship with Liu Zhengfeng, they had long been dissatisfied with the aggressive attitude of the Songshan faction. Before, they were afraid of the power of the Five Sacred Mountains and dared not make a sound.

Some even laughed loudly: "The Sun Moon Sect is a personal enmity to Wuyue, but the Tartars are a national enmity to us. You don't even care about your national enmity, how dare you accuse Liu Zhengfeng of disregarding your personal enmity?"

Ding Mianquan pretended he didn't hear it, but Fei Bin said angrily: "Who! Who is talking?" Just as he saw a person coming out of the crowd, someone he recognized said, "It's the red scarf hero!"

Zhang Wuzhang had already taken off his official robe outside, went to pretend, and said with a smile, "I'm the one talking, why, is there any dissatisfaction with Mr. Fei?"

In the past, it was Ding Mian and Lu Bai who accompanied Feng Buping to Huashan to force the palace, but Fei Bin also heard that the second senior brother Ding Mian was not well received by Zhang Wuzhang, so he couldn't help but laugh.

Zhang Wuzhang wondered: "Songshan faction ranks first among the Five Sacred Mountains, why don't you dare to say anything when you see the Tazi court, and don't dare to pant when you see the anti-Yuan people, just try to please both sides, you are also worthy of being decent ? If everyone in the world cares only about being wise and protecting one’s life like your sect, how can we talk about reversing the great cause of the Yuan Dynasty, and how can we talk about restoring our country?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the Five Sacred Mountains felt that there was no light on their face.Dingyi couldn't help nodding his head when he heard this, and couldn't help thinking, I, Hengshan faction, have never taken a position on this matter, just pretended to be stupid, sat and watched the people of the world struggling to survive in the water and fire, how could I have the face to talk about Buddhism mercy?

Her temperament is not much softer than Tianmen, her heart is hot, and she said: "Master Zhang's words are justified, the poor nun will entrust her to the elders today, and the senior sister of the sect head should come down, my Hengshan faction and the Tartar court are incompatible!"

The whole hall burst into applause, and Tianmen had long forgotten that he was playing a show, and shouted: "Count me into the Taishan faction!"

Yue Buqun met Feng Buping's eyes, saw him nodding, and said with a smile: "The Huashan faction is obliged to do so."

Ding Mian heard someone behind him shout "Second Senior Brother" in a low voice, and he heard that the person who spoke was Jiuqu Jianzhong Town, who ranked fifth among the Thirteen Taibao. Infected, with an eager look on his face.

Ding Mian secretly sighed that this is the general trend of the world, and the Songshan School cannot go against the trend, and said in a deep voice: "What about the Songshan School will be decided after I return to the school and report to the head of the school, but I, Ding Mian, represent myself. I am willing to devote myself to Fan Yuan, until after I die!"

The disciples of Songshan School responded one after another, saving a lot of impression points for a while.Ding Mian waited for the noises to subside slightly, and poured his inner strength: "Liu Zhengfeng not only has a personal relationship with Qu Yang, but also bowed his head to the Tartars, accepted the post of general, and the crime will be increased!" Damn chicken, the situation has been messed up like this Since Liu Zhengfeng, his wife and soldiers have lost money, so they have to recover some interest.

He didn't expect that Liu Zhengfeng had been thinking hard about how to deal with it, and he had made a decision long ago. He threw the "imperial decree" in his hand on the ground, stomped it to pieces, and said in tears, "It's all Liu Zhengfeng's self-indulgence. Wait until you see what heroes do. Only then did I realize that I almost made a big mistake today, and I am ashamed of my ancestors in Hengshan!"

He beat his chest, stomped his feet, wailed, drew his sword and wanted to slay himself, and asked Linghu Chong to sweep it with his sword. The scabbard of the Qingming sword pierced his wrist, the long sword fell to the ground, and he fell to the ground with fatigue.

Ding Mian was dumbfounded, and Zhang Wuzhang said: "Since Mr. Liu is willing to reform himself, he is a good man, and he should contribute to the anti-Yuan and redeem his crimes." He wanted to hint at it with words, Unexpectedly, Liu Zhengfeng is so upbeat, so it will save trouble.

Linghu Chong stepped forward to help Liu Zhengfeng up, and persuaded him: "I was rude earlier, so I will ask you for your sins in another day. Martial Uncle Liu is skilled in martial arts, how many Tartars he can kill, his life is so good, why should he sacrifice his life here?"

Dingyi also said: "Amitabha, brother Liu Xian, I hope you can learn from this and don't repeat the same mistakes."

Ding Mian continued to be stupid, and heard Lu Bai whisper: "Brother, we can only admit defeat and quit." In this situation, the national enmity is greater than personal enmity, if he insists on the friendship between Liu Zhengfeng and Qu Yang, It seems that Songshan Pai is petty.

At this moment, so many pairs of eyes were watching how the Songshan School expressed its position, Ding Mian had to swallow all the anger in his heart, and said with a forced smile: "That's right."
