Late at night, the Wuji Sect lanterns are hung high and the candles are brightly lit. The bluestone floor of the campus has been cleaned up by everyone, all blood stains have been removed, and it will be as clean as ever tomorrow morning.
The ancient banyan tree here, the steps here, the martial arts platform here, all of them seem like stars in the sky, nothing has changed.
But if you look closely, you will see that the ancient banyan trees here have sword marks, the steps here have smoothed edges, and the martial arts platform here has cracks in the stone. All of this is like passing smoke, everything is changing... .Everything in Dinghu Mountain is silent, and a palace in the vastness is like a firefly.
The side hall of Wuji Sect. The leader of the Wuji Sect held the third meeting. The main hall has a portrait of the founding master of the Wuji Sect. There are a few cases in the hall below, two Taishi chairs on both sides of the cases, and two rows of elegant seats at the bottom, with chairs and tables spaced apart.
Left main and right deputy. Sitting on the main seat is Xiao Jin, the leader of the Wuji Sect, the first sect of the Sword Alliance, and on the right seat is Master Cien, the abbot of Shaolin holding a Zen staff.
On the lower left is Sun Yu, the old sect leader of the Yu Sect, followed by Li Bei of the Li Sect and Lu Wuchang, the great disciple of the Cang Yin Sect. On the lower right is Ling Xikong, the leader of the Yuling Sect, followed by Sui Gufeng, the great elder of the Tai Sect.
Of the ten major sword sects, one will save nine, while four will rebel and five will remain.
"Master Ci'en, I will tell you the current situation of our Sword Alliance one by one on the way. Li Zhiyun is currently rebelling against Li Zong. The reason has not been investigated yet. Sui Jie, the leader of Tai Zong, and Wang Cheng of Cang Yin Zong have not yet been seriously injured. Healing may lead to disability. As for the several sword sects who rebelled, most of them were led by Jin Zong Zhang Shunyuan, and they all surrendered to the Lu Jiao. I and other several sword sects agreed to conquer Fang Zhoushan Lu Jiao in three days, but Master Ci'en didn't know Any advice?"
"Lu Jiao is the state religion of the Xiongnu. It has built a camp in the Central Plains long ago, and it is located in Fangzhou Mountain. It has begun to recruit disciples from the Central Plains as disciples, and it has begun to take shape. The Xiongnu and the Central Plains have always been hostile, and wars continue every year. They are feuds. The Central Plains can Allowing him to gain a foothold in the Central Plains would have meant that the world of the Central Plains is vast, but now this barbarian foreign teacher wants to interfere in the Jianghu of the Central Plains, which is really shameless. Abbot Ci'en, do you think this Lujiao should be attacked or not?" Sun Yu is older than Ci'en. In the last round, he was discussing friendship with his master. His master had passed away a few years ago, so naturally he could not call Ci En as master, so he called him abbot.
Ci'en heard the words and replied: "What Senior Sun said is absolutely true. It's just that the Lu Jiao's ability to design such a big picture is definitely not something that can be achieved overnight. Leader Xiao has set a plan to conquer the Lu Jiao in three days, so it is too hasty. In Lao Na's opinion , we might as well postpone it for a month, spread the hero's message widely, hold a martial arts conference, attract the power of the righteousness of the Central Plains rivers and lakes, and destroy the evil deeds of the Lu religion in disrupting the Central Plains in one fell swoop." Sui Gufeng, the elder of Taizong, heard the words on one side, waved his hands repeatedly, and replied: " What Master Ci'en said is true, but in my opinion, although we won the battle today with great difficulty, we also captured Yiqu Changping, the director of the Lujiao Hall, and kept that piece of shit like Chonghua Zong Kuang Jinzhou behind. Now Shaolin is strong With reinforcements at our side, we might as well take this opportunity to pursue the victory and defeat Fangzhou Mountain. I think it's too late in three days, so we might as well catch up with him tomorrow and kill him off guard." Xiao Jin frowned after hearing this. Frowning, he disagreed.
Before Xiao Jin could answer, Lu Wuchang, the chief disciple of Cangyin Sect, retorted: "Seniors and juniors, I feel that Elder Sui's words are inappropriate. Since Lu Jiao can set up a trap to lure the Demon Sect to consume the strength of our Sword Alliance first, he will naturally make a good plan. It is not appropriate for us to pursue our retreat rashly, fearing that we are playing into our own hands. It is not appropriate." Xiao Jinzhan nodded and gave Lu Wuchang an appreciative look. Feeling that this forty-year-old junior had a foresight, he responded to He asked him: "You have far-sightedness, tell me your opinion?" Lu Wuchang quickly stood up and clasped his fists, gave everyone a teacher-thank you ceremony, and then invited Li Bai to ask: "Master Li, I heard what my teacher said, before you, the old man, I said that after your red poisonous sword is over, in order to apologize to the major sword sects, does the promise of forging a good sword still count?" Hearing this, Li Bai nodded and replied in a deep voice: "I'm here Words naturally count. Knowing that the four sects have rebelled from the Sword Alliance and defected to the Lu Sect today, I, Li Bai, am willing to directly select six of the seven mountain-controlling swords in Lushan and give them to the remaining sects, each with a mountain-controlling sword. Resist foreign enemies and fulfill your promise!" Lu Wuchang clapped his hands and continued to clasp his fists and said: "The Seven Swords of Li Zong Zhenshan are famous all over the world. The master of Li Zong is so considerate and the overall situation is important, which is really admirable. Even so, the junior thinks that the three After a few days, conquering the Lu Sect can still only be the middle strategy. As for the best strategy, I think what Master Ci'en said is absolutely true. The Lu Sect has been established in Fangzhou Mountain for several years, and now it has been joined by the four major sword sects, and its power cannot be underestimated. Only the three palace ministers of the Lu Sect went up the mountain today. Let’s not forget that their master, Beiguang Dao Wang Qiu Linpu, has never appeared from the beginning to the end. Who can tell clearly what Qiu Linpu is planning behind the scenes? Jian Meng and Shaolin Temple alone In the crusade against the Lu Sect, the Demon Sect is eyeing the south, and the seven-story building stands tall in the north. In order to protect the Sword Alliance from being cannibalized by the Lu Sect and the Seven-story Sect, I think we should hold a martial arts conference to jointly crusade against the Lu Sect. That’s the best thing to do!” After hearing this, everyone nodded slowly.
Xiao Jin even praised Lu Wuchang and said: "The old Taoist priest Wang Cheng has raised a good disciple. He is so knowledgeable. Yes, yes." Ci'en also nodded and replied: "Amitabha, that's good. That's good." Xiao Jin asked Lu Wuchang again: "Brother Wuchang, tell me when and where we will hold a martial arts conference, and when is the right time to conquer Zhoushan Mountain in the northwest?" Lu Wuchang frowned, thought for a moment and replied. : "It will take some time for all the major sects in the Central Plains to gather together. Master Ci'en said that one month is enough, so the martial arts conference can be scheduled for the fourth day of May. As for the place, the junior believes that the Guanyun Temple on Lantern Hill, a annex of the Shaolin Temple on the south side of Dinghu Mountain, is the best. It's appropriate. As far as I know, firstly, Guanyun Temple is the lower temple of Shaolin Temple, and its abbot is the same disciple of Master Ci'en. It is natural for Master Ci'en to lead all his disciples to stay in Guanyun Temple. Guanyun Temple is located away from Fangzhou Mountain In the near future, during the conquest, we can reserve our strength to fight against the Lu Jiao. Between the two, the Central Plains martial arts, with Shaolin as the leader of the righteous path, we will spread the heroic posts in the name of Master Ci'en, and then recommend Master Ci'en to take charge of the overall situation. There is no righteousness in the world. If we obey, we can expel the Lu Sect in one fell swoop and restore peace to the Central Plains. Thirdly, the major sword sects will also have time to rectify the disciples who stayed in the mountains, practice martial arts and prepare for war, and be fully prepared to cooperate with the sharp swords sent by Li Zong, and they will be invincible. . On the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, we can go out to conquer the Lu Sect! I wonder what the seniors think?" Xiao Jin took a deep breath and nodded slowly after hearing this.
Everyone nodded in agreement, and Sun Yu even said a few good words. After Lu Wuchang finished speaking and sat down, Xiao Jin slowly stood up and said to everyone: "What little brother Lu said is deeply affecting my heart. I wonder if you have any objections?" Master Cien also stood up and nodded slowly. .
Everyone responded with 'agreement'. Xiao Jin smiled slightly and replied: "Okay, that's the arrangement."
"By the way, there is one more thing, and that is Li Zong's newly made red sword! This period of time has muddied the world! The sword is a poisonous sword, and walking around with a poisonous sword is against the right path of martial arts. Since everyone We all think it can be used to deal with the evil sect of Lu Jiao and fight evil with poison, so we will ask Master Ci'en to give it a name. We will hold a sword ceremony in our Wuji Sect tomorrow and make it the eighth mountain-powering sword of Li Sect. Xiao Jin asked loudly.
Several other people nodded in agreement: "Just right!"
"good!"
"Master Ci'en, please give me your name!"... Xiao Jin invited Li Bai to hand over the sword. Abbot Ci'en took the sword handed over by Li Bei, and gently opened it. The sword had a green hilt, a red sword body, and a bright red light. After thinking about it for a moment, he sighed: "The sword is a good sword. It's just that when blood is poisoned, it is difficult to cure and cure." A knight carries a sword and travels around the world, taking pity on the poor people! But this sword does not pity the living, but only thirsts for blood! Let's call it pity the living, so that the person who uses it must remember to pity the living, eliminate evil and retain good, and use evil to make good. !”
"Have mercy on living beings, have mercy on living beings, have mercy on all living beings! What a good name!" Li Bai nodded, sincerely convinced, cupped his fists and said to Ci'en, "Thank you, Master Ci'en, for giving me the name!"
"Amitabha, how good it is! How good it is!" Mercy returned with folded hands. Everyone also felt it was appropriate and no longer had any objections.
Xiao Jin nodded, greeted the waiter at the door, and then said to the waiter: "Inform me, the sword ceremony will be held at 3:00 noon tomorrow. The Shaolin disciples will avoid it, and all the sword sects will be present!" Then he turned around and cupped his fists at everyone: "Okay. Okay, everything is done! The meeting is over! Someone is here! Send Master Ci'en and the sect leaders back to their rooms to rest!"...
