Fengling Mountain has been established as a religion for hundreds of years. At that time, Fengling Ancestor practiced hard as a casual cultivator until the end of Wangyou, and then established a Taoist tradition in Fengling Mountain.
After that, Fengling Mountain recruited many disciples and casual cultivators, and it gradually grew stronger and divided into nine peaks, each with its own peak master.
But even so, Fenglingshan still stands outside the three religions and does not belong to any of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. It's really a big sect of casual cultivators, but it seems that with the sect, it can't be called a casual cultivator anymore.
After hundreds of years of development, the power of the Nine Peaks gradually gathered together, and finally fell to the two peaks of Guyue Peak and Wuwang Peak.
Guyue Peak has been holding the position of mountain master for several generations, while Wuwang Peak owns most of the business in Fengling Mountain, so it can still be considered as a rival.
On Lone Moon Peak, under a laurel tree. An old man with white hair and beard is sitting cross-legged on the ground, with a chessboard in front of him. On the chessboard, the black and white pieces are evenly matched, and it looks magnificent.
But no one was sitting across from the old man, and he didn't know who was playing chess with him. Not long after, a figure appeared in the distance. When he came here, he looked anxious and panted.
The old man kept looking at the black and white fight on the chessboard and asked calmly: "Is the sky falling?" As he spoke, he had picked up a white piece and was thinking about where to put it.
The man knelt down with a plop and said tremblingly: "Uncle Master...Uncle Master, he is dead!" Before the white piece in the old man's hand fell, it was suddenly crushed by him. The old man's white hair moved slightly and he said indifferently: " How dare Chen Wannian act like this? Are you risking your life?!" He, the master of Solitary Moon Peak, naturally knew the plan of Solitary Moon Peak. Originally, according to his ideas, this plan, even if Chen Wannian was lucky enough to avoid it, they, Solitary Moon Peak, The group of disciples could also return safe and sound. After all, Chen Wannian's wife was still in the mountains. According to Chen Wannian's temperament, she was destined to refuse to get things done.
"Could it be something sent by Wuwang Peak? Since they want to win over Chen Wannian, they won't allow him to die." The old man reached out and picked up a sunspot again. It turned out that he had always been the one to play against him. Himself and only himself.
He didn't believe that Chen Wannian's temperament could do such a thing, but since Wuhuang Peak wanted to drive them off their positions as mountain masters, they should be able to do anything.
In this case, it actually makes sense. As long as no clues are left, even if you know it well, you can't do or say anything.
"Wuwang Peak has been dormant for so many years, and finally I can't help it anymore, but is the mountain master so good?" The old man glanced at the person, then stood up slowly, and said calmly: "I'll go and discuss it with the mountain master. , please don’t act rashly for the time being." The old man disappeared and rushed to the main peak.
......... There was a quiet courtyard on the main peak. Before I even got close, I could already smell a pungent smell of medicine. The old man's nose twitched and his face didn't look very good.
Judging from the strong smell of the medicine, the old mountain master's condition has become serious again. In fact, rather than saying that he is seriously ill, it is better to say that he is getting older and is now very old and will soon pass away.
Most monks seek immortality and freedom in their spiritual practice, but in this world, even if monks go very far on the road, they still cannot escape the hurdle of life and death.
The old man still has great feelings for this mountain master. The two are real brothers in the same discipline. When he went up the mountain, his master had been in seclusion all year round and wanted to reach a higher realm. Therefore, this senior brother was the one who taught and taught. Yes, although the two of them said that they were brothers, in fact they were no different from master and apprentice father and son.
Sighing, the old man gathered his emotions and pushed the door open. A young man was boiling medicine in the yard. When he saw the old man, he put on a smile and called "Uncle Master" tiredly.
The old man nodded. The young man in front of him is now the legitimate Young Master of the Mountain. When his senior brother dies, this Fengling Mountain will belong to the young man in front of him.
Entering the house, the old man easily saw the skinny old man lying on the hospital bed. The old man softly called "Senior Brother", and then the skinny old man opened his eyes and looked at the old man.
The two looked at each other speechlessly, but both smiled. The old man got straight to the point and said: "The people sent to kill Chen Wannian are all dead." There was a touch of pain in the old mountain master's eyes. After a long silence, he slowly said: "Is it Wuwangfeng's method?" The old man shook his head,
"It's not clear yet, but logically speaking, it should be their method. Otherwise, with Chen Wannian's temper, he would not do it so cruelly. Even if he knew that we were planning to kill him, he would not kill anyone." The mountain master nodded and sighed: "Wuwang Peak has been coveting the position of mountain master for so many years. Now, it is finally possible. There will naturally be many means. Junior brother, I actually..." After a pause, Laoshan The Lord continued: "I am already like this. Feng'er is still young. Maybe he really can't fight them. Otherwise, he will give up his position as the mountain master in exchange for Feng'er being safe and sound for the rest of his life..." The old man shook his head and immediately refused: " Senior brother, how could you have such an idea? After your death, no one will care about the wind, will they let him go? Now that we take a step back, there is an abyss behind us, and we will regret it when the time comes." The old mountain master sighed. ,
"Chen Wannian has completely turned to their side now. Even if I pass the position of mountain master to Feng'er, when they force the palace, Feng'er's end will be even worse." The old man thought for a while, shook his head and said: "It's not like that. Oops, this chess game is not over yet. If we can get Chen Wannian's wife in our hands now, we can control Chen Wannian, and then there will be other opportunities." They decided to get rid of Chen Wannian before because Chen Wannian's wife has already Being controlled by Wuwang Peak, they had no choice, but now if they could regain control of Chen Wannian's wife, maybe everything would turn around.
The old mountain master said: "It's not that simple." The old man opened his palms, revealing the sunspot on his palm, and said: "It's not necessarily that difficult, senior brother." The old mountain master stopped talking, and just breathed with some difficulty. , he doesn’t have much time left, if he doesn’t still have a son, why should he worry about these things.
The old man put the sunspot in his hand next to the old mountain master's pillow and said softly: "Senior brother, you taught me Taoism and taught me skills. This kind of kindness will never be forgotten in my life. The position of this mountain master is the wind." What belongs to Feng'er must belong to Feng'er. Even if the junior brother dies on the mountain, he will accomplish this for him." The old mountain master looked at his junior brother, stretched out his hand tremblingly, and touched his head. He said with some affection: "Junior brother, you are already a white-headed man." The old man's eyes were moist and he said nothing.
.........A group of three people have already descended the mountain. Chen Wannian and his son, and Chen Chao, a young warrior who originally planned to go to Wantian Palace, but now chose to go to Fengling Mountain.
Chen Wannian was a little anxious, so he walked very fast, but at the same time he was also a little worried. When he was about a hundred miles away from Fengling Mountain, the middle-aged warrior wanted to speak several times, but he held back.
Chen Chao had long seen what Chen Wannian was thinking. Now he saw that he was hesitant to speak and took the initiative to say: "Mr. Chen is worried that I will break my promise when the time comes, or that Fenglingshan will fight to the death and stay." Madam, or to use Madam to blackmail Mr. Chen to take action against me, Mr. Chen will not know what to do when the time comes." Chen Wannian did not try to hide it. Now that his thoughts were revealed, he said frankly: "Exactly. In this way, Chen still cares about Zhuo Jing's life. If the guardian envoy doesn't have a perfect plan, I'm afraid things will be difficult to handle." Chen Chao shook his head and smiled: "I can guarantee that this matter will be completed, Mr. Chen doesn't have to I'm worried that if my wife is really allowed to die in Fengling Mountain, my head will be left there." Chen Wannian was silent for a moment, and then solemnly said: "If this matter can be resolved properly, Chen will be your master from now on. I have lived and died for Daliang without any complaints."
"Look, you started talking like this again?" Chen Chao shook his head and said, "If this is really the case, Mr. Chen, what is the difference between you in Daliang and Fengling Mountain?" Chen Chao smiled and said, "I want to What is more important is Mr. Chen's true sense of belonging. If you use benefits or threats to tie Mr. Chen and Daliang together, that kind of relationship will never last." Chen Wannian nodded. He did have many things in his temperament that did not make him a martial artist, but You can understand it if you think about it.
It is impossible for everyone in the world to be as ordinary as Emperor Liang. Chen Lian smiled and said: "I believe that the guardian envoy will definitely have a way to rescue my mother." Before Chen Wannian could speak, Chen Chao suddenly said: "Let Mr. Chen tell you in advance that no matter how Fenglingshan behaves later, or How to blackmail Mr. Chen? Mr. Chen has to pretend to be indifferent. At this moment, my life is tied to the life of your lady. Do you believe Mr. Chen?" Chen Wannian nodded and solemnly said: "Everything is up to your Majesty's arrangement." At this moment, it was already The outline of Fengling Mountain could be seen in the distance. Chen Chao smiled slightly and exhaled a breath, wondering if there would be a fight later.
If you really want to take action, it doesn't matter.
