Following the white-haired old man coming out of the house, there was also a younger old man in brown clothes. As soon as the two stepped out, two people quickly rushed out of the pavilion. They were standing aside, anxious. However, he respectfully led the two elders to the pavilion. Naturally, the rest of the people in the pavilion had already stood up to greet them and bowed their hands in greeting.
The old man in brown clothes is Cheng Yin, the village chief of Taiji Village, and the old man with white hair is Weng Zhenhuai, a well-known miracle doctor in Wudang. They are also the elders that the old man asked Jiang Yichen to visit on his behalf.
The group of people in the pavilion were the ones who had gone through a bloody battle at the three intersections, and Jiang Yichen was among them. After everyone worked together to kill Jiang Zheng, they hurried to Tai Chi Village considering that their two seriously injured companions were in urgent need of medical treatment. Unexpectedly, it rained heavily and the distance of three to four miles made it difficult for them to travel.
After everyone arrived in the village, the villagers were also very concerned. The village chief Cheng Yin helped carry the injured to Mr. Huai's home in Weng Town for treatment. He also acted as Mr. Weng's assistant and was busy inside. The enthusiastic villagers briefly treated the wounds of the remaining seven people and provided them with dinner to satisfy their hunger. A group of people were worried about the safety of their two companions and were afraid of disturbing the villagers too much, so they stayed quietly in the pavilion in front of Weng's hometown, waiting for the results of the treatment.
During this period, a strong monk named Zhangsan was saddened by the continuous drizzle. He stood up and faced the sky, weeping, clasping his hands together and reciting Buddhist scriptures.
When Jiang Yichen and Hong Que saw this, they stepped forward to show concern. The people who had been silent before just exchanging names now exchanged opinions and comforted each other.
The two deputy sect leaders of the Wuxiang Sect have disappeared within the past two months, and the sect leader has also suddenly disappeared in the past two days. Suddenly the person in charge was lost in the door. When the group was leaderless, they suddenly suffered a disaster today. The bandit leader of Danxia Villa and several masters of Changsheng Village broke into the door and deliberately provoked trouble. They raised knives to kill people at the slightest disagreement. Two gangs of gangsters approached. The formation of a hundred people was huge and clearly well prepared. Wuxiangmen originally had few people and was caught off guard. Fortunately, the Daoyi Alliance seemed to have heard the news and rushed to help ten people. Everyone in the sect was wiped out.
There were more than twenty people in the Wuxiang Sect, and they followed the Daoyi Alliance people and fled all the way to the intersection. Until Jiang Yichen came to help, there were only three people left. In addition to the strong monk Zhangsan, there was also the seriously injured Shi Chenghe who stabbed him at the last moment. Situ Zhong slashed Jiang Zheng on the back.
The ten members of the Daoyi Alliance also suffered losses. The survivors include the girl in red, Hongque, the man in black, Xunbao, the seriously injured Wang Shide, and the two swordsmen and one assassin who finally worked together to give Jiang Zheng a blow. Han Shimeng, Xie Shichao and Kong Chuan all survived. six people.
"Lao Weng, Lao Cheng, what's going on with Brother Wang and Xiao Shi?" It was Zhang San who spoke. His brows had not relaxed since he came to the pavilion.
"No vital parts were hurt. It was just a lot of blood loss. It's no longer serious. You will be fine after a few days of rest." Mr. Weng raised his hands gently to express relief to everyone.
"That's good, thank you Mr. Weng and Mr. Cheng for your help." Zhangsan was about to thank him, but was stopped by Cheng Yin.
"Hey, it doesn't have to be like this. What's the situation in your family now?" Cheng Yin asked back.
"In the door...the two deputy door masters in the door have not been seen for some time. They are free and uninhibited by nature, or where they linger in the beautiful scenery and forget to leave is unknown. Therefore, the doorman has not been too worried until this moment. For two days, even the sect master was nowhere to be found, and the people in the sect realized that something was fishy. But today, something unexpected happened in the sect. Except for the three main and deputy sect masters who were not in the sect, they did not know whether they were alive or dead. There are four people, only me, Situ Zhong, and Xiao Shi." Zhang San's eyes dimmed and he answered sadly, then he turned to Hong Que and Xun Bao and bowed again, "It's really me Unfortunately, it also drags down the friends of the Alliance of Justice and Justice."
"This is not Wu Xiangmen's fault. Now that the matter has come to this, Third Brother Zhang must not blame himself. We still need to find out why the gangsters in Danxia Villa and Changsheng Villa suddenly attacked." The one who spoke was Hongque, despite his age Qingqing, but she is the person in charge of the Daoyi Alliance in Wudang, and Xunbao on the side has the same identity as Murong Jing. He is responsible for the transmission of information between Wudang and Xijiang County. The information about the sudden disaster of Wuxiang Sect is He told Cardinal, and then they came to the rescue together.
"Yes, do you know why these bandits are doing this?" Weng Zhenhuai looked at Zhang San. Zhang San is one of the guardians of the Wuxiang Sect, so he may know more information.
"Perhaps they are coveting my sect's "Sitting Without Forms and Forgetting the Mind"." Zhangsan returned after thinking for a moment.
"Wuxiang sits and forgets his mind? It's no wonder that Wuxiang Sect is derived from the Xiaoyao Sect in the past. Although it is attached to the Jiuzhou Alliance, the philosophy of the sect is closer to Taoism, advocating no self and no form. He is carefree and inactive, and there are not many like-minded people in the martial arts world. Therefore, he does not have many disciples. Because he rarely participates in trivial matters in the martial arts world, he is also alienated from other gangs. It is said that the founder of the sect, Master Shen Qian, practices the practice of sitting without form and forgetting the mind. When the Dharma reaches the supreme state, it is possible to use Qi to slave swords and transmit sounds into secrets. After the internal energy is activated, the internal power is endless. He can fight against several masters for three days and two nights without losing. It is a pity that Master Shen Qian likes to be alone. In the past, when he was already very old, he accepted the three brothers of the Gu family as his disciples and granted them these unique mental skills. However, before they even imparted 30% of them, they had already become immortals. Therefore, the Wuxiang Sect has always been known to the world. Forget it, this encounter is the crime of holding a treasure..." Cheng Yin said, stroking his beard lightly.
"The Wuxiang Sect has been in the Qingsong Forest for more than ten years. Although the Wuxiang Sitting and Forgetting Mind Technique is well-known, it is not easy to practice, and it is only an intermediate level among the wood-based internal skills and mind techniques. However, the gangsters of Danxia Villa and Changsheng Villa Human beings have been in Wudang for more than a year or two. If they have evil intentions, why haven't they taken action?" Xunbao on the side asked questions.
"Little Leopard has some clues. There are no outsiders here, but it doesn't matter." Cheng Yinpin understood the meaning of Xun Bao's words and immediately asked back.
"There should be someone behind the scenes secretly controlling this situation. The specific force is not clear yet, but according to what I have found, it may be inseparable from the Nether Sect and the Twelve Heavenly Evil Sects." When Xunbao saw what the village chief Cheng Yin said, he no longer concealed anything and spoke frankly.
"Regardless of the bandit masters among them, those little minions all have quick hands and are extremely strong. This is most likely the trick of the Netherworld Sect." Hong Que analyzed according to the words.
Listening to everyone's analysis, Jiang Yichen was silent and held his chin in deep thought. Yesterday, the Jin Yiwei went to Wudang to ask for the secret method but failed and was expelled by Master Xuchen. Today, the Wuxiang Sect was brutally killed by the gangsters because of the secret method. Encirclement and annihilation, is there any connection between them? After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Yichen explained yesterday's Wudang incident to everyone present to help everyone clarify the relationship and have a clear idea.
"According to what Jiang Shaoxia said, maybe the imperial court is involved in this?" Zhang San raised his eyebrows. Wuxiang Sect and Wudang Sect are almost the same. Wudang is completely closed in. Wuxiang Sect is slightly better, but it comes from the sect. He had little communication with the outside world, and the news was even more blocked. He didn't understand why the imperial court would search for martial arts and internal skills of various sects, and it was even more difficult to imagine that the imperial court would collude with the evil sect Nether Sect and borrow the help of bandits. To deal with them like this.
"I'm afraid it's hard to escape the relationship. After this battle, has the core of the sect been lost?" It was Weng Zhenhuai who spoke. After hearing everyone's few words, he couldn't help but look sad. He is now in his old age and has rarely seen Participated in Jianghu affairs, but in recent years Jianghu troubles have occurred frequently, and he has heard about it. He also suspected that the imperial court intended to disrupt the situation. The current situation has confirmed his thoughts. The government is unjust, but it frequently interferes in Jianghu affairs, causing chaos in the world. It will be up soon.
"No, when we evacuated the green pine forest, it was set on fire. The method of sitting and forgetting the mind is difficult to understand, and it is even more difficult to practice. There are not many brothers in the sect, but the ones who have been practicing for the shortest time are several years, and they all have forgotten the mind. Only by memorizing the Dharma in your heart can you practice it at any time. Therefore, if there are only three people left in the sect, then the Dharma will only be in the minds of the three of me." Thinking of the sect members who have been together for many years, passing away one by one day and night, I am resolute. Ru Zhangsan's eyes were filled with tears again.
"My condolences." After hearing this, Weng Zhenhuai stopped talking and patted Zhangsan's shoulder several times to comfort him.
"Today's matters need to be discussed in the long term. It's already getting late. We'll make plans tomorrow. If you don't want to go into the house, you should rest early. I'll ask someone to bring some quilts. Don't catch a cold in this weather." Cheng on the side. Yin said.
Everyone did not refuse any more, and after saying goodbye to the two elders, they spent the night in the pavilion.
The long night was long, but it was difficult for Zhang San and Situ Zhong, who had just suffered the tragic death of their family, to fall asleep. Before midnight, the two quietly left the pavilion, each secretly led the horse out of the stable, walked out of the village entrance, and walked up the road. Go, before they go far, they see a person lying on the boulder in front of him, covering his body with a big bamboo hat. The big bamboo hat looks familiar, and that person seems to have been waiting for them?
