In Chapter 24, leader Zhao sent troops into three groups, and Chu Jianghan fought hard with the Wuji Formation.
On Mount Tai, the heroes lit torches and searched up and down all night to no avail.
At dawn, some people fanned the flames and encouraged everyone to gather together early. Among them, the two sons of Yin and Yang took the lead and said: "I dare to ask the leader, now that the evil spirits of the demon sect have left, what should we do? What does leader Zhao think about it?"
The crazy monk rolled his eyes at the Kongtong Sect and said: "That boy last night, since he once learned art from the Kongtong Sect, I would like to ask the Taoist brother of the Kongtong Sect to come out and explain it. Could it be that even the Kongtong Sect has something to do with the demon cult? What can’t be achieved through collusion?”
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience was in an uproar. Kongtong sent several young men to stand up with their swords in hand and cursed one after another. I saw a Taoist who was in his forties and said loudly: "The Emei sect can't talk nonsense! My junior brother Chu has been studying in our sect since he was a child. He has never done anything inappropriate before he came down from the mountain. If not, my teacher will never do anything wrong." I taught him the special skills of my sect. I see that you are clearly thinking about the sword in his hand. You have tried and failed to snatch it away, and now you are causing trouble for me, the Kongtong Sect, in front of the heroes of the world." The person who spoke was the chief minister of the Kongtong Sect. Disciple, Master Tianji, the direct disciple of Master Ziyang.
Everyone from all factions already covets that peerless sword, but they all know that Chu Jianghan is a master of swordsmanship, and usually they would not dare to go out and grab it openly. Now that all the heroes in the world are gathering at Mount Tai, and Chu Jianghan happens to come to cause trouble again, everyone has a lot of thoughts. Thinking about it, no matter how good your martial arts skills are with the surname Chu, nine out of ten of the decent martial arts have come to Mount Tai. If you can't fight alone, it might be a good idea if everyone swarms up. When Master Tianji said this, the noise was reduced by half.
Taoist Tie Shou shouted back at Tianji and said loudly to the heroes: "Heroes, this Chu man did learn his skills in our Kongtong Mountain, and he behaved well before going down the mountain. It's just that after going down the mountain, I don't know where to start. After getting rid of the sword that suppresses the mountains, now he is so bold that he dares to come to the heroes meeting to cause trouble, and he also rescues the evil spirits from the demon sect. Naturally, we, the Kongtong faction, have no choice but to shoulder the responsibility. If the leader of the alliance gives the order, we, the Kongtong faction, will be the first to go down the mountain to hunt him down." After taking out the sword on his back, he immediately broke it into several pieces. The heroes burst into cheers when they neutralized.
Suddenly another person came forward and said: "Heroes, please listen to me!" Everyone saw him dressed as a scholar, wearing a gold crown on his head, a jade on his waist, and a brocade robe. It was Ren who showed Chu Jianghan the way last night. promising.
Someone who recognized him asked loudly: "What is Mr. Ren's wisdom?" Ren Youwei cupped his fists and saluted, and said loudly: "The Brother Chu you are talking about is actually my sworn brother." There were many chatters in the crowd. Tongue, started talking again.
Ren Youwei said in a loud voice: "I was delayed because of something, so I came here this morning, and I heard a little bit about what happened last night. I really don't understand the whole story. It's just that this time I have left the demon sect, even if you all We have learned from him where the Demon Cult is hiding, and there is no guarantee that he will rush to report the news this time. If the Demon Cult is on guard, I am afraid that if I wait here, I will suffer even more losses."
He sighed and said, "Ren's personal affairs are of minor importance, but the demon-killing and guarding of the country is of greater importance. Therefore, I think it would be best for Alliance Leader Zhao to quickly send troops to intercept him." As he spoke, he was seen wrapping up his brocade robe and immediately knelt down. In front of the heroes of the world, he cried loudly: "I only ask heroes from all walks of life to show mercy to my sworn brother. No matter what sword or weapon you want, just for Ren's sake, don't hurt my sworn brother's life." !" After saying this, he kowtowed to the ground and howled loudly.
Seeing this, Zhao An hurriedly stepped forward to help him up and said: "Young Master Ren, please rise. I think it is because my brother is young and has just entered the world, so he will inevitably be deceived by evil spirits. If he can find his way back, everyone present will be the right path in martial arts." A hero will never kill indiscriminately." A crazy monk nearby also said: "Young Master Ren is famous all over the world, and he is among the best and the best among people. He will never be able to do this great gift. Alas! Forget it, if you meet him in the future, I will show mercy to you, Master. Yes." Among the heroes, there were those who valued friendship and admiration for Ren Youwei, and they all agreed.
Ren Youwei clasped his hands in his fists and bowed to express his thanks one by one, which was touching.
After a while, the disciples fired a salute, and the heroes returned to their seats. On the high platform, Alliance Leader Zhao passed the command flag and ordered to the heroes: "The devil is poisoned at the moment, and he will definitely not be able to go far. Who is the hero now? Are you willing to be the vanguard and intercept along the way?" The Iron Hand Taoist from the Kongtong Sect came out in response, clasped his fists and said, "I, the Kongtong Sect, have a duty to take the lead and are willing to take the lead."
Zhao An was overjoyed and handed over the command flag and said: "Old senior, let's chase westward. We only need to intercept and kill Xuanwu. As for others, it is better not to hurt them, so as not to damage the reputation of our decent sect."
When Taoist Tie-Shou wanted to speak again, Zhao An stopped him with a wave of his hand and said: "The flag of our alliance leader has been sent out. Please follow it, senior, and don't say anything again!" Taoist Tie-Shou turned his head and sighed, took the flag and made a quick move. This disciple is about to set off.
Master Tianji behind him snorted coldly, opened his mouth and cursed: "Uncle, please do it yourself, please forgive me for not being complicit." After saying this, he flicked his sleeves and walked away.
There was a burst of sighs among the heroes, and on the high platform, Abbot Jueming shouted the Buddha's name. The iron hand Taoist's face turned red, he snorted, nodded his disciple, and went down the mountain to chase after him.
After a long time, on the high platform, Zhao An ordered the crazy monks of the Emei sect to join Shen Qiuyue, a total of twenty-one people, forming the second group. The crazy monk briefly explained to Ouyang Yue, the Thousand-Hand Sword, and then led a group of male and female disciples down.
In an instant, three cannons rang out. On the high platform, Leader Zhao started to order three groups of people. This time, he ordered the two sons of Yin and Yang of the Kunlun Sect. The two of them were displeased and asked back, "It's not that we are complaining. There is only Master Shaolin Abbot here." , Wu, the old hero of the Beggar Clan, has great martial arts skills. If any one of them is invited to take action, Chu and the devil can be easily captured. Why not ask the two of them to work hard? I'm afraid it will be in vain if I wait. .”
Zhao An laughed and said: "Master Abbot and Hero Wu are the leaders of our martial arts world and Taishan Beidou. Naturally, we need them to lead the heroes here. How can we get there?" Zhou Dalei, the leader of the Beggar Clan, howled like a cow. "Aren't you two afraid that it won't work? If you two are not willing to follow the leader's order, why don't we go instead?" The heroes laughed, but the two sons of Yin and Yang snorted, took the order flag, and clicked on their sect. Twenty disciples went down the mountain.
Leader Zhao also ordered all factions to camp where they were and set off down the mountain ten days later.
But he said that the two sons of Yin and Yang had come down from the mountain. They inquired along the way and discussed: "This Zhao Kan is clearly trying to embarrass our Kunlun sect and intends to run against him. Just imagine that Chu has exquisite swordsmanship and has a peerless sword in his hand. You I lead this group of disciples, who is my opponent? Although the first group of Kongtong sect is led by an iron-hand Taoist, the person named Chu comes from his Kongtong sect after all, so it is hard to say whether they will fight hard or not; the second group of Emei sect, I am afraid I will conserve my strength so that I can kill the White Lotus Sect and show off my power in front of the heroes of the world. Do you and I really want to intercept it with all our strength? Can we use an egg to hit a stone?"
When the two shook their heads and sighed, a disciple Luan Yi stepped forward and whispered: "Two masters, don't worry. Although the two masters have spiritual powers in their houses, we have sent a large number of masters from our sect this time. But most of them are juniors who were born late and cannot be of much help. After all, they cannot compete with other sects. Since Shaolin and Beggar Clan can invite senior experts to come, our Kunlun Sect can also invite seniors to help. The disciple heard that there is a Tai in our sect. Uncle Master is practicing on Mount Tai, why not invite him to come out and help us catch the evil spirits?"
When the two sons of Yin and Yang heard this, their expressions changed and they were both furious, and they reprimanded in unison: "How do you, a junior, know about the secrets of this sect? If you dare to talk nonsense again, be careful of your bullshit!"
Luan Yizhi smiled faintly, bowed and said softly: "Two masters, calm down! Let me listen to this disciple: Uncle Xue Taishi left our sect only because his martial arts were the highest among his sect back then, but the ancestor never passed the throne to him. , so he felt resentful and went down the mountain gate in anger. Now Taishifu has passed away long ago, and Uncle Xue is a man of Taoism. What happened back then was after all done by his youth. After many years, most of the resentment must have been eliminated. Secondly, the disciples heard that Uncle Xue was a master of swordsmanship, and he was particularly fond of treasures. If he learned that the Zhenyue Sword was in the hands of Chu, he would most likely be tempted to come here. These three things..."
He coughed slightly, then lowered his voice and said: "If the person named Chu dies at the hands of Uncle Xue, it will be considered that our Kunlun sect has gained prestige; if he dies at the hands of the person named Chu, it will also be beneficial to the two masters." , you must know that most of the essence of our Kunlun Sect is in him rather than in the mountain sect. If he teaches one or two more disciples and masters, and kills the mountain sect to seize the position of leader, it will not be a good thing. Retreat. Wan Bu said, if we behave properly, our two masters will definitely benefit from his guidance."
When the two sons of Yin and Yang heard this, they were overjoyed at first, and then said: "We have little contact with him, but what should we do?" Luan Yizhi said again: "The two masters only need to repair one letter, just because the master is in trouble. , and also said that the Zhenyue Sword is now on the body of the demon Chu Jianghan of the White Lotus Sect. When the disciples go to pay a visit, I expect Uncle Xue Zongchang, the Invincible Sword, to come decisively. This time, the head of the Taishan Conference entrusted the two masters with full authority on this matter. It’s okay.”
The two sons of Yin and Yang were overjoyed when they heard this. They immediately praised Luan Yi for his resourcefulness and bright future. They also wrote a letter and handed it to Luan Yi, not mentioning it for the time being.
Besides, Chu Jianghan was so depressed that he only applied medicine to Xuanwu and still didn't wake up. There was blood seeping out under the bumps. Seeing that there was no other way, Chu Jianghan simply found a place to stay. Firstly, Xuanwu was in a coma and really didn't know where he was going. Secondly, because of his ability, he was not afraid of being chased by strong men. Immediately, a doctor was invited to treat him, and he lost his true energy twice more in the morning and evening. On the morning of the third day, Xuanwu woke up.
Xuanwu burst into tears with gratitude, but his affection was extremely sincere. Chu Jianghan had never seen a seven-foot man cry so loudly, and he was filled with emotions for a moment. Xuanwu cried for a while, then burst into laughter again, and said to Chu Jianghan: "Although people in our holy religion are restricted by the canon's rules, they still think that they are capable of running rampant in the world and dominating the nine states. I don't want to think that there is a sky outside the sky, but there is nothing I can do!"
Chu Jianghan thought that this person's turtle breath magical skill was astonishing to the world. If he hadn't broken it by coincidence, there would be absolutely nothing he could do. It was incredible that the Huashan sect member named Zhao could defeat him. He also thought that Zhao An was particularly good at strategizing. Most likely some kind of trick or conspiracy was used. She was so sad when she saw him again, but she seemed to have a bit of heroic spirit, and she wasn't as disgusted as before.
Xuanwu said again: "Young Master Chu, there are two miraculous elixirs hidden in the left and right ears of the lower ear. It's just that you can't use your power at the moment. Please use your power to force them out!" Chu Jianghan followed his words to improve his energy and luck. He tapped the Baihui point on Xuanwu's head and found two yellow pills the size of the tips of bamboo chopsticks. Xuanwu said: "I was broken that day by the turtle breathing magic. I only need to meditate once to regain the magic. I wouldn't have taken this medicine, so I accidentally harmed Dao'er named Zhao. I didn't want to end up like this."
He sighed and said, "I learned this medicine in Miao territory. It is used to detoxify and heal injuries. It must be taken with wine. It has the effect of bringing the dead back to life. It only takes seven days to recover. This medicine is the only one in the world." Two pills, please bring some wine to Young Master Chu so that I can take one pill. Young Hero Chu will help me escape, and the other pill will be given to Young Hero Chu!"
Hearing this, Chu Jianghan got some wine and asked Xuanwu to take the pills. He said thank you and stuffed them into his left ear. He felt uncomfortable at first, but gradually got better after a while. Asked again how he was taken, Xuanwu just shook his head and sighed, unwilling to say more, and Chu Jianghan didn't ask any more questions.
The two stopped for a night, and the miraculous medicine was indeed miraculous. The doctor and pharmacist applied the medicinal stone externally, and saw that the wounds were healed and the flesh and skin stopped bleeding, so the two set off on their way again. Along the way, Chu Jianghan asked where he should go, and Xuanwu thought: There is no guarantee that this move was not a trap by the other party. Although he saved me, I only gave him the wonderful medicine and elixir. This kindness is considered unpaid. , we can only report it on the way to the next day.
The survival of the Holy Religion was a serious matter, so he could not tell the truth, so he said: "Young Master Chu, there is no need to ask any more questions, just follow me." Chu Jianghan understood in his heart, and he didn't ask any more questions and just followed Xuanwu.
After traveling for five consecutive days, although Xuanwu recovered from his external injuries, his internal strength never recovered. The two had no choice but to travel day and night. The journey was naturally slow, and they arrived at a town that night. It was getting late, and along the way I used some money I had left to buy a thin horse to carry Xuanwu on. The two of them set out on the road, but they didn't go much faster.
However, he heard footsteps behind him. A group of men and horses had already been killed. Chu Jianghan heard that someone could do it. With one hand, he drew out his long sword and struck the horse's butt with the other hand. The old horse was frightened and moved forward with Xuanwu on his back. Run. It was too late to say that, but soon enough, I heard a loud shout, and twenty people formed a sword formation in an instant, surrounding Chu Jianghan in the center. The leader from the front held a double hook in his hand. Although he was in a posture, he could not hide his plumpness. Chu Jianghan recognized the posture of his willow eyebrows as if they were leaning against a tree, and he was really the Emei sect's hundred-arm hook sinking Qiuyue.
Chu Jianghan thought of the teasing at Yunlai Inn again, and asked: "It turns out that an old friend is here. Do you dare to ask the girl why she did this?" When Xu Shi heard the word "old friend", Shen Qiuyue's face turned red, and she Time has reversed the situation. But after all, she has been traveling in the world for many years, and she comes from a famous family, so she is naturally extraordinary. She snorted coldly, immediately changed her posture, and opened her mouth and said: "Disciples of the Emei Sect, under the order of Alliance Leader Zhao, are here to strangle the evil spirits of the Demon Cult! If you If you still believe that the martial arts is righteous, you shouldn't be willing to be low-spirited and collude with the evil heretics!" Chu Jianghan didn't know how to respond for a moment.
Seeing this, Shen Qiuyue said again: "Young Master Chu, I hope you will find your way back and find the right shore!" Upon hearing this, Chu Jianghan put away his sword again, cupped his fists and said to Shen Qiuyue: "Friends of the Emei Sect, we have no grudges in the past. I have no grudges these days, and I really don’t want to be an enemy. As for the White Lotus Sect’s Xuanwu, I have a personal matter that I want to ask him for help. I hope you will be kind enough to let him go!”
The sword holder next to Shen Qiuyue heard this and cursed: "What a vicious thief. Since you are so stubborn, I understand that you will not be able to escape from our Emei Sect's Sun and Moon Infinite Formation today. Brothers, stop nagging and kill!".
As soon as the word "kill" was spoken, twenty people immediately began to circle around Chu Jianghan. Chu Jianghan observed carefully, but saw that ten of the twenty people were holding swords and ten were holding hooks, and they were silently surrounding him. I didn't understand it for a moment, but I heard another "Change!"
The sword wielders all jumped up on the spot, specializing in the upper three lanes, but the hook wielder attacked the lower three lanes. Chu Jianghan used the "Xumi Sanyin" stunt. He originally wanted to jump out of the circle and escape, but was hit by his head. Ten swords were formed into a net of swords, and I leaned down. I saw that the iron hooks underneath were also formed into a net of blades. If my feet fell on it, they would be turned into pulp. I hurriedly used my body skills, turned around in the air, and pulled out the long sword on my back. The sword, with its tip facing down, stabbed and swung toward the center of the hook blade. Each hook holder felt his arms go numb and his body swayed. Although he took half a step back, his formation was not disrupted at all.
Another voice said: "Change", but when he saw that the hook wielder and the sword wielder were separated from each other, Chu Jianghan and the sword formation did not see any clues for a while. He only focused on the one who gave the order and thought: Look All it takes is to knock down the one who gave the order, and the formation will be out of coordination. Having made up his mind, he thrust his sword towards the person shouting the order. The man in the flash of the sword dodged backwards. The tip of the sword was about half a foot away, but he saw that there were seven or eight long hooks on each side, which were locked and locked. He held the long sword, and then heard several whooshing sounds, and seven or eight long swords were thrust towards his back. He hurriedly moved his arms and pulled back hard. The sword was already extremely sharp, but at this moment it was sharp again. With enough movement, the sword was withdrawn where the sparks flashed.
At this moment, Na Rong was barely able to breathe. Seeing the sword blade coming behind him, Chu Jianghan did not stop his strength. He took advantage of the situation and swung back. Several people behind him were shaken away by the sword energy. Seeing that the formation was slightly chaotic, Chu Jianghan jumped down. Leap jumped out of the circle.
Just as he was about to rush forward, he heard the sound of horseshoes. The old horse rushed towards him again like the wind. Xuanwu on the horse was still whipping. Even if you have a little bit of skill, if you fall off the horse, you will either die or be injured.
Seeing an arrow coming from a frightened horse, Chu Jianghan immediately jumped up and raised Xuanwu in mid-air. He rushed into the formation with a horse. A group of people got out of the way. The formation was immediately in chaos. Chu Jianghan thought to himself that if he didn't leave now, how long would it take? ? When he landed on the ground, he sheathed his sword, put Xuanwu on his back, and floated his feet forward a little bit.
Suddenly he saw a fat monk flying towards him, it was Dian Monk, shouting: "Where to go?" He took out a palm, Chu Jianghan hurriedly greeted him with one palm, Dian Monk was coming with this Qinggong, how fast he was. With such speed and profound skill, this palm was no small feat. Chu Jianghan had already been shaken and had no choice but to take advantage of the situation and fall back to the ground. Looking at Dian Monk again, he also swayed, used the power of his palms to volley into the air and did a backflip, and took seven or eight steps back when he landed on the ground, shouting: "What a boy!"
Seeing that he was under attack from both sides, Chu Jianghan put down the Xuanwu on his back and looked at the Xuanwu again. He didn't know when he had fainted and was unconscious. He simply tapped a few acupuncture points in front of everyone, and after a burst of true energy entered, Xuanwu woke up.
If you want to know what happens next, let’s look at the breakdown in the next chapter.
