On the second day, when Zhu Yu came to the meeting hall early, he found that Lan Ling'er's mother and four guardians were already waiting in the hall with serious expressions. Zhu Yu realized that the matter to be discussed in the faction today was extraordinary.
After a while, Lan Tian, Lan Ling'er, Zhang Bei, Zhao Li, Luo Lin and more than ten disciples of the four guardians came to the meeting hall one after another.
"In recent days, we have received reports from various places that the Sun God Sect has colluded with Northern Shaolin and the government to deal with various martial arts sects in the Central Plains. The headquarters of the Wudang Sect was bloodbathed, more than 30 disciples were killed, and the third among the five Qingcheng disciples of the Qingcheng Sect was Lingfengzi and three disciples went out to perform rituals and were killed by the Sun God Cult thirty miles away from the capital." Seeing that everyone had arrived, Yang Rourou said.
A disciple stood up and asked: "Master, the Sun God Sect and Northern Shaolin have caused chaos again and again. Why is this?"
"It's a long story. Fifty years ago, when King Yan conquered the world, a group of ministers who supported Emperor Jianwen fled to the people. They were bent on restoring orthodoxy and teaching future generations that they must overthrow the empire of King Yan and support Emperor Jianwen. Jianwen's descendants will be emperors, and now these people want to contact the people in the martial arts community and start a rebellion secretly, so the government wants to take the first step to wipe out the martial arts community in the Central Plains to avoid future troubles." Yang Rourou said slowly.
Hearing what Yang Rourou said, Zhu Yu couldn't help but feel a little bit in her heart. She thought to herself, these people who want to rebel have heard some rumors and want their father to come forward and restore the Zhu family's orthodoxy! If this were the case, if my father was still alive but imprisoned somewhere, then his life would be in danger.
"Zhu Yu!" Zhu Yu was worrying about the safety of his father and mother when he suddenly heard Yang Rourou calling him.
"Aunt Yang, I'm here." Zhu Yu heard the cry and stood out from the crowd. Zhu Yu does not call Yang Rourou the leader or leader of the alliance because Zhu Yu is neither a true Shaolin disciple nor a member of the Tianlong Sect. His identity is just a refugee living in the Zhengxu Zen Temple.
"What do you think about this?" Yang Rourou looked at Zhu Yu with concern.
Among the Tianlong Sect, only Yang Rourou knew Zhu Yu's true identity. Because of this, Yang Rourou loved Zhu Yu very much, but she couldn't show special attention to him, lest people raise suspicions and cause trouble for Zhu Yu. Even in the Shaolin Temple, only the three masters Kong Wu, Kong Xin and Kong Kong knew Zhu Yu's identity. The officers and soldiers went to Shaolin to find the descendants of Emperor Jianwen, but they heard that an outsider named Zhu came to Shaolin to hide, including Wu Qian, Zhang Han and even the general Sun Gan. Although people come to Shaolin and shout about it, they are not sure that Zhu Yu is a descendant of Emperor Jianwen.
"I, I think, we should make preparations, notify the various factions, set a time and place to meet, go to Shouyang Mountain, and eliminate the Sun God Cult in one fell swoop." Zhu Yu had never thought about this problem and said tentatively.
"Needless to say, eliminate the Sun God Sect as soon as possible. What we need to do now is to find out the true strength of Wuyingren and the great protector Yang Tianguan in the sect, the third protector Yang Miaoke and the disciples, so that we can easily unite the various factions to ensure victory. The safest way is to use your strength to kill Shouyang Mountain." Sima Zhen is worthy of being a great protector and thinks about issues more thoroughly and detailed than others.
“In today’s Central Plains martial arts world, the people with the highest martial arts skills are none other than Master Kongkong of Shaolin, Master Zhizhe of Guoqing Temple, Master Zhang Lingzi of Tianling Way of Zhongnan Mountain, and Master Yashanzi of Qingcheng Sect. The combination of Wudang and Sanshou can be compared with two Buddhas and two The four Tao masters have a chance to fight. To destroy the Sun God Sect, we need to invite Wudang Sansou and two or three of the other four masters to be sure." Without the participation of the top martial arts masters in the Central Plains, destroying the Sun God is nothing more than an armchair tactic. , Yang Rourou knew this very well, so she said this.
"Wudang was sneak attacked by the Sun God Cult, with so many casualties. Could it be that the three Taoist priests Wudang Wufeng, Wuxin, and Wusi were not on the mountain?" Lan Ling'er asked after hearing her mother say that the Wudang and the three old men were extremely powerful together.
"Yes! For many years, the Wudang Sansou have been looking for the Soul-Chasing Witch and Linghu Wuya in order to retrieve the Great Netherworld Sutra for Shaolin and to avenge the Four Old Men. They were not on the mountain at that time, but even if the three of them were on the mountain , whether it can defeat the Sun God Cult is still unknown." Sima Zhen looked at Lan Ling'er and sighed.
"Destroying the Sun God Cult is no small matter. If it is not done well, it will set the whole body on fire and bring catastrophe to the martial arts community in the Central Plains. What we need to know for sure now is whether the four of them, Master Kongkong and Wudang Sansou, can defeat the Sun God Cult together. All the masters." Lan Tian pointed out the most critical issue at the moment.
"Speaking of this festival, thirty years ago, in addition to Wudang Sansou, four masters had a contest with the Shadowless Man of the Sun God Sect and the Great Protector Yang Tiangong in Tianlong Mountain. At that time, I was only ten years old. I practiced martial arts with Lan Tian’s grandma. Even though I have been there for decades, I still remember the scene clearly." Yang Rourou stood up from her seat, walked slowly to the door of the meeting hall, looked at the vast mountains in the distance, and said thirty What happened in Tianlong Mountain years ago...
In the early years of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang was worried that the crown prince Zhu Biao would be coveted by others, so he massacred the heroes. Lan Yu, Duke of Liang, was a master of outstanding achievements and was easily included in his execution.
In the twenty-sixth year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang secretly instructed the Jin Yiwei to falsely accuse Lan Yu of treason. Lan Yu was killed and the three clans were executed. Only Lan Xiong, Lan Yu's son, escaped under the protection of the Shaolin monks. Later, Korean Gong Li Shanchang was also killed, and the third The female Li Yi survived and took refuge in Shaolin under the protection of kind-hearted ministers. After Lan Xiong and Li Yi learned peerless magical skills in Shaolin, they left Shaolin, got married, and established a sect in the Tianlong Mountain in the hinterland of the Central Plains, called the Tianlong Sect.
After many years of war, the world was not at peace. Heroes from various sects of Buddhism and Taoism, as well as those who gathered in the mountains and forests, vigorously practiced martial arts to protect themselves. Because of his unparalleled martial arts skills, Lan Xiong was highly respected by the Central Plains martial arts community and became the leader of the martial arts alliance. The Tianlong Sect also became the largest sect in the Central Plains martial arts community. As the saying goes, big trees attract wind, and wealth attracts jealousy. Northern Shaolin and the Taiyang God Sect in the north have profound martial arts skills. They did not take the various martial arts sects in the Central Plains seriously and frequently launched attacks. In the end, the Taiyang God Sect united with the Northern Shaolin and went to heaven. Longshan called the formation and wanted to replace the Tianlong sect to dominate the world of martial arts.
Northern Shaolin was branched off from the Songshan Shaolin Temple hundreds of years ago. The Central Plains martial arts community knew its origins, but they knew nothing about the Sun God Cult. Faced with the arrogant members of the Sun God Cult, Lan Xiong had no choice but to propose a competition to determine the alliance leader. Lan Xiong said that the Sun God Cult could not make mistakes again, so he agreed to Lan Xiong's proposal and started a five-year alliance. It was the first time that a martial arts leader was selected through a competition.
After the hero post was issued, Shaolin Master Kongkong, Guoqing Temple Wise Monk, Zhongnan Mountain Tianling Taoist Master Zhang Lingzi, and Qingcheng Sect Yashanzi Taoist Master were invited to Tianlong Mountain. These four people are recognized as the four martial arts masters in the Central Plains. Among the great masters in the Central Plains, apart from Lan Xiong, the leader of the alliance, there is no one with the right four.
The masters of other sects knew that their martial arts skills were not even inferior to those of the four great masters and the Four Old Men of Wudang, so they were embarrassed to "show their embarrassment". However, these four people were originally practitioners of Buddhism and Taoism, and had no intention of becoming the leader of the martial arts league. Longshan's purpose was just to help Lan Xiong consume the skills of the Sun God Cult and Northern Shaolin masters so that Lan Xiong could secure victory.
The people participating in the duel, except for Lan Xiong, were the Wuying people and Yang Tianguan, the three Yang Diguan people and the North Shaolin abbot Yuan Ying. However, there was a big gap between Yuan Ying's skills and the three people from the Sun God Sect. cut.
After Yang Rourou said this, she sat back on her throne and looked at the people who were fascinated.
"Mom, who won in the end?" Lan Ling'er couldn't wait to know the result. "Later, your grandfather was lucky enough to defeat Yang Tianguan, and then became his martial arts leader. Until your father grew up and won the position of martial arts leader, he was always your grandfather's martial arts leader.
"So, the Shadowless Man never took action? Why is that?" Zhang Bei asked.
"From the beginning to the end, the shadowless people were wearing tight clothes, covering their faces with black gauze, and watching the battle quietly. After Yang Tianguan defeated Master Kongkong and Master Wise Man, he clamored to compete directly with Lan Tian's grandfather. For some reason, After Yang Tianguan lost, the Shadowless Man never took action, and he never went to Tianlong Mountain to participate in a martial arts competition." Yang Rourou answered.
"So, you still don't know how high the Shadowless Man's martial arts are?" Lan Tian couldn't help but ask.
"Not only do we not know the martial arts of the Shadowless Man, but no one in the world's martial arts knows whether he is a boy or a woman. This is why everyone from the Sun God Sect to all major sects calls him the Shadowless Man." Yang Rourou felt quite moved. He replied helplessly.
"For thirty years, Master Kongkong, Master Zhizhe, Taoist Yashanzi and Taoist Zhang Lingzi have been practicing. They should be able to compete with the three major protectors of the Sun God Sect. What we need to do now is to find out the skills of the Shadowless Man, so that we can Make a plan to attack the Sun God Sect." Second Protector Kong Lingyuan said.
"Without further ado, Zhao Zhou and Yunshan, you two are responsible for sending hero posts to Qingcheng Sect, Emei Sect, Diancang Sect, Wuliang Sect, Wudang Sect, Shaolin Sect, Zhongnan Mountain Tianling Tao and Guoqing Temple Zhizhe Master , let them all gather at Wudang Mountain, which is closest to the Sun God Sect." After arranging the post, Yang Rourou continued: "Tomorrow, Protector Kong will lead his disciples to stay on the mountain, and the others will follow me to Wudang first."
