Pingkang's Central Plains language was not very fluent. He could understand it but could not speak it. Naturally, he spoke the Xiongnu language.
After hearing this, Lu Fang frowned and said, "What does this northern barbarian say? Isn't he scolding you?"
At this time, there were a total of eight people in their crowd. As the leader, only Xu Dingshan of the Yushan Sword Sect, Abbot Qingyi, Ge Ming, the leader of the Mingyi Sword Sect, and Lu Wei, the leader of the Luoyue Sect, went to pursue Ruan Qingchou but did not return.
When it comes to martial arts, Xu Dingshan is in the same row as Abbot Qingyi and Mingyi Sword Sect Grand Elder Lu Fang. The other five are masters of several major sects, and compared to these three, they are in the same row.
Just now, Lu Fang won his first battle, which gave the Jiangnan factions some face. After listening to Lu Fang's words, everyone felt that they had a chance to win. They were able to defeat the people from the Lu Sect on the opposite side, and they had enough momentum.
After hearing Lu Fang's rude words, Yankong opened his mouth and said, "The Northern Barbarians. As Huns, they were traveling in the Central Plains. They had known that the Northern Barbarians were calling them barbarians. When they heard this, they became angry."
After hearing Lu Fang scolding him as a northern barbarian, Pingkang drew his sword and rushed forward to fight him fiercely. Yankong stopped him and replied to them:
"Now that your Excellency has said so, how about you show me the real seal? If your people lose, you will no longer tell the world about your fault for pretending to be my Lu Jiao, but you will want all the sects in the south of the Yangtze River to listen to my Lu Jiao's orders. ,how?"
After hearing this, Lu Fang was about to agree, but Xu Dingshan hurriedly stopped him and said, "Brother Lu Fang, please be safe."
Xu Dingshan listened to the other party's conditions. If he lost, he would have to obey the orders of the Lu Sect, which would be tantamount to surrendering to the Western Region cult. He felt that it was inappropriate and added: "Brother Lu, don't talk lightly. If we lose, we Jiangnan sects will never There’s no chance of success!”
Hearing this, Lu Fang frowned and said: "Master Xu, don't worry, just fight. Are we afraid? I have already defeated their men just now. In terms of martial arts, we may lose."
Lu Fang and Lu Wei are junior brothers, and they always advance and retreat together. Xu Dingshan and others also know that Luoyue Sect was founded by the two brothers themselves, so they also treat Lu Fang, their junior brother, with the courtesy of the head.
Lu Fang stood up, snorted coldly at Yankong, and replied: "What if you lose?"
Xu Dingshan saw Lu Fang's recklessness and treated him like Lu Wei. His voice in Luoyue Sect was almost equal to that of Lu Wei. At this time, Lu Fang stood up and he couldn't stop him, so he had no choice but to give up.
Xu Dingshan thought to himself: This Lu Fang is too reckless. A man in his forties is still so competitive. If we lose later, I'm afraid he will bear a lot of responsibility.
Yankong listened to Lu Fang's words and replied: "If I, Yankong, lose, how about offering five thousand taels of gold and never pursuing this matter?"
After Lu Fang heard this, he thought that five thousand taels of gold would be enough for them to open the door and establish a faction again. He replied without hesitation: "Okay, I wonder how you want to compete?"
The Luoyue Sect and the Mingyi Sword Sect are both rising stars in the south of the Yangtze River. Luo Yue Sect was founded by Lu Wei and Lu Fang. They were both relatively unfashionable people at the time. Because they participated in the Tong family murder case and received money, they established themselves in the south of the Yangtze River. Lu Fang established the Luoyue Sect. Intuitively, Luo Yue Sect is not big enough. He is just a great elder and has not many disciples. He hopes that one day he will have enough money to expand the sect and accept more disciples, so that Luo Yue Sect can become one of the major sects in the south of the Yangtze River. In the middle, you can be in the upper reaches.
At this time, after hearing the terms offered by the other party, including five thousand taels of gold as compensation, he agreed without hesitation.
The murder case of the Tong family discussed here is the murder case of hundreds of people.
Ji Ruge's third task is to help Zhou Feng clear up the culprits of the Tong family murder case.
Ge Ming, the leader of Mingyi Sword Sect, his younger brother Ge Changshou of Gejiazhuang, Wang Heng of Chunhua Valley Sword Sect, Lu Wei, the leader of Luoyue Sect, and Lu Fang, the great elder of Luoyue Sect.
Five people in total.
There was a murder case in the Tong family that year.
Because the Tong family's slave Zhou Feng had an affair with his daughter Tong Huanhuan, which ruined the Tong family's reputation in Huaijiang, the head of the Tong family planned to move the family to Yangzhou for Ansheng, so he hired a big team to move the family.
The large ship passed through a section of the Huaijiang River and was looted by water bandits, who burned the ship and killed everyone. No one was spared.
Back then, the Tong family's big barge burned all night on the calm Huaijiang River.
It was not until daytime that the government sent people to put out the fire, but it was already too late.
Hundreds of people from the Tong family were all burned alive in Shenjiang, and some of their bodies were not even recovered.
The water bandit disappeared and the case was sealed by the government as an unsolved case.
The so-called water bandits are actually the people Ji Ruge wants to kill.
They are the culprits, and their purpose is to make money.
This is also the reason why Mingyi Sword Sect and Luoyue Sect were slowly established in Jiangnan in the following years.
To open a sect, one must either be highly skilled in martial arts and have disciples come to join the sect themselves, or one must have huge financial resources, be able to establish a stronghold, establish a sect, and publicize and attract disciples.
Obviously, the Mingyi Sword Sect's Taiyi Sword Technique and the Luo Yue Sect's Nine Star Fist are not particularly powerful martial arts. Ge Ming and Lu Wei are not well-known people. They started the sect. Belongs to the latter.
Ge Ming, Ge Changshou, Lu Wei, and Lu Fang were not rich people originally. They were able to open up a sect or establish the Ge family village in the following years, all because they had robbed the Tong family and obtained countless ill-gotten gains.
...
Besides, Yankong heard Lu Fang ask how to compete. He thought about it and replied:
"Each party will send one person to fight. The loser will win and defend until the opponent is completely defeated. In the end, whoever is the champion will win! How about that?"
Lu Fang replied: "It's up to you!"
Abbot Qingyi said hurriedly: "Brother Lu, no, the other party wants us to obey their orders if they win, and we win only for money and not to pursue the matter of impersonating them, no, no!"
Lu Fang frowned and said: "Afraid of what they will do. They are a bunch of northern barbarians who can only use brute force. Master Qingyi, you are worrying too much. You have already agreed. Don't worry, we will definitely be able to defeat them."
When Qingyi saw that he had agreed to Yankong's conditions, he couldn't help but clasped his hands and said, "Amitabha, Brother Lu, you are too hasty and reckless."
Yankong pointed to the door and said: "We can't use it inside the restaurant, so we will block a wide road on the street outside the Yuelai Restaurant as a place for competition. Please!"
By this time, many of the guests in Yuelai Restaurant had been dispersed by the fight just now, and there were only a few who dared to watch the excitement at the door.
Yankong took the lead and took the lead to the street.
The street in front of Yuelai Restaurant was originally a three-way intersection, a wide street. They occupied most of it, and most of the road was still open to passers-by.
At this time, the disciples of the Jiangnan sects took off the Hu clothes they were wearing, revealing their original attire. They followed Xu Dingshan and others to the street, and the two parties became confrontational.
Pedestrians and vendors on the road saw that both sides were aggressive and apparently wanted to start a private fight, so they all retreated to avoid it. Only the bold pedestrians watched the excitement here from the nearby attics, inns, and teahouses.
Lu Fang was the first to stand in the field with his fists clasped, and said to Yankong and his group: "I have defeated him just now, so now should I be the one to guard the ring?"
Yankong saw that the person who had just pretended to be him was a bit arrogant and defeated his second disciple with his fists and kicks. He felt that the people in the Lu Sect were all soft persimmons and couldn't help but sneered.
Yankong has a total of seven people under his command, and Heisei Nakahara is the most eloquent, so he was asked to go out to meet these people pretending to be him. In terms of martial arts, he is only average among several disciples.
In order to prevent anyone from losing face again and causing Lu Jiao to lose face, he directly asked his eldest disciple Ping Kang to step out.
Pingkang has a round waist and fat buttocks, a broad body, two or three times larger than the average person, and the knife in his hand is several times larger than the average person. The other disciples all wear scimitars, and the eldest disciple wears a scimitar. A large, straight-handled knife was specially customized, weighing hundreds of kilograms.
The brute strength of Yankong Xindao's great disciple was enough to defeat these people.
"Pingkang, you go." Yankong stood up straight, looked at the arrogant Lu Fang, couldn't help but sneered, and ordered to the eldest disciple.
Pingkang had long wanted to avenge his junior brother for having his ribs broken by this man just now, but he had no choice but to stop him because of his master, so he did not dare to act rashly. At this time, he received the order, shouldered his big sword, and walked up with a wolf-like pace.
