Seeing the retreating figures of Monk Huaiyue and Xi Chu, Li Changqing raised his long and beautiful eyebrows, then closed the window and turned back into the house.
Regarding the "big event" that happened in Shencheng last night, although there were practitioners involved, Li Changqing didn't pay much attention to it. He thought it was just a struggle for power among the mortal gangs here, and then one or both parties invited some practitioners to help. Such things Li Changqing has no interest.
Moreover, today is the day when the Shanghai Seven Immortals Alliance meets regularly for a gathering. At that gathering, the two junior brothers will naturally report the details of what happened last night.
Li Changqing returned to the bed and continued to meditate, hoping to regain the mysterious state of mind that he had experienced a few days ago.
Her life has always been so simple. Apart from completing the tasks of the Seven Immortals Alliance, there is only cultivation in her life, and there is only the Dao in her heart.
Then when it was approaching nine o'clock in the morning, Li Changqing got up from the bed, left Le Zi's room, and came to the living room where regular gatherings were held.
The regular meeting starts at nine o'clock in the morning.
When Li Changqing stepped into this hall, he found that all the second-generation disciples of the Seven Immortals Alliance in Shencheng, except for a few disciples with special tasks, had already arrived.
The three ancestors have not yet appeared, but Monk Huaiyue and Xi Chu have actually returned.
Since he came back so soon, it means that last night was actually not a big deal, at least not a big deal to the cultivation world.
Li Changqing sat next to the two of them and still just asked casually.
"How about you go check it out? What happened last night?"
"We'll talk about it later when the masters arrive, but it's really nothing serious."
Xi Chu said with a smile.
……really……
Li Changqing thought so and didn't ask any more questions, but she found that Monk Huaiyue's expression seemed a little strange.
At this time, the three ancestors of the Seven Immortals Alliance in Shanghai entered the hall one after another.
"The past month has been calm in Shanghai."
When he walked in, Old Master Qingfeng shouted with a smile that was not formal at all.
"I hope that the days to come will be so peaceful every day."
After he said this as if making a wish, his eyes swept over the second-generation disciples in the hall, and finally landed on Monk Huaiyue and Xi Chu.
"Come on, tell me what you found out."
Monk Huaiyue and Xi Chu looked at each other, and then Xi Chu stood up.
"Last night, a fight broke out between Du Wenqiang and Yang Hushan, two influential Youth Gang leaders in Shanghai. The final result was Zhang Hushan's death."
The second-generation disciples in the hall listened quietly. As for the two people Xi Chu mentioned, they all knew who they were. Although they were just two mortals, as long as you were in Shencheng, it was impossible. Never heard their names.
"And in last night's firefight, practitioners did intervene, and both sides asked practitioners to help..."
Xi Chu continued to talk.
Li Changqing next to him smiled slightly, and it was exactly as he expected.
"...The first person to take action was Zhang Hushan. Zhang Hushan sent several gunmen to ambush outside the Paramount Hotel, but in the end the gunmen failed..."
"...The disciple went to Paramount to investigate, and learned from a dancer who witnessed the whole incident that the gunmen at that time fired with submachine guns, but not a single shot hit Du Wenqiang... Haha, the disciple heard When we were here, we knew that there must be practitioners involved..."
"...According to what the dancer said, she only saw a sudden appearance of black mist, and then the gunshots stopped. Later, after the black mist dissipated, she saw a young monk standing next to the car. …”
When he said this, Xi Chu looked back at Monk Huaiyue. A strange look flashed across Monk Huaiyue's face again, but he motioned for Xi Chu to continue.
"... Then Du Wenqiang went directly to Zhang Hushan's mansion. On the way there, they suffered another ambush. This time it was a practitioner in the entrainment stage who took action. In the end, it was the young monk who helped Du Wenqiang deal with the assassin... …”
"...This ambush battle happened to be witnessed by one of our immortal attendants. It was precisely because of his report that we learned that a cultivator was involved in the fight between mortal gang members last night. .”
"...After Du Wenqiang went to Zhang Hushan's mansion, he stayed in Zhang Hushan's mansion for more than an hour before leaving. When he left, Zhang Hushan was already dead..."
"...As for the process of Zhang Hushan's murder, the disciple could not find out because the memories of those who witnessed it at that time had been cleaned by Taoism. However, in the hall where Zhang Hushan was killed, the disciple noticed that the practitioners were fighting. Traces of the past..."
"...There is no doubt that on Du Wenqiang's side, the practitioner who helped him was naturally the young monk. As for Zhang Hushan, the disciple later checked those people whose memories had been purged. Although the memory of Zhang Hushan's murder was It was purged, but the earlier memories were still there, and then the disciple discovered that before Du Wenqiang and others came to the end, there was also someone beside Zhang Hushan who should be a practitioner, and he mentioned a name, Dajiangtang..."
"...It's a pity that the disciples didn't find Zhang Hushan's body. He must have been taken away by someone. Otherwise, he could have found out more things..."
Xi Chu finished speaking.
It is quite rare to be able to find out so many things in just a few hours and basically restore what happened last night.
At least that's what Li Changqing, who was sitting next to Xi Chu, thought.
And now that people have found out, it's time to take action.
What happened last night, the practitioners on both sides naturally violated the laws of heaven, and the situation was more serious.
Because both Du Wenqiang and Zhang Hushan are very influential figures in the mortal world. The fight between them is considered a major event in the mortal world and will affect the fate of many people.
This kind of thing is the most taboo for practitioners to interfere. It is also the original intention of the heavenly rules of immortals returning to immortals and mortals returning to mortals. There is no need for extraordinary power to affect the fate of mortals.
What's more, many people died in last night's incident.
That Dajiangtang and the unknown young monk must be severely punished!
Li Changqing raised his head to look at the three ancestors, only to find that the expressions of the three ancestors were a little serious at this time.
"Xi Chu, are you sure they mentioned the three words Dajiangtang?"
Then Zou Zhen asked Xi Chu in such a deep voice.
"Disciple is very sure."
Xi Chu nodded firmly.
Then Master Qingfeng, Master Daoji, and Zou Zhen each looked at each other, showing a look of embarrassment.
Li Changqing felt a sense of surprise.
Is that so-and-so Dajiangtang so troublesome?
So she immediately raised her voice and asked:
"Three masters, what kind of cultivator organization is this Dajiangtang?"
"Dajiangtang is a killer organization in the spiritual world of Shencheng."
The one who answered her was Old Dao Qingfeng.
"Of course, they don't just kill for money. As long as you can afford the price, they will do anything for you."
"This Dajiang Hall is extremely mysterious. No one knows where their hall is or who their members are. They began to appear in Shanghai about eighty years ago."
"As for the strength of the killers in Dajiangtang, there are those with low Qi-entraining stage, but those with high ones are even powerful at Nascent Soul stage, and there are more than one, because the most famous operation of Dajiangtang was in San Ten years ago, they assassinated a Nascent Soul Realm master in Shencheng, and in that operation, they dispatched two Nascent Soul Realm masters."
"So according to our judgment, the organizer of this Dajiangtang is at least in the realm of a land god."
"As for our Seven Immortals Alliance, in fact, this Dajiangtang is our biggest enemy in Shencheng, because among all the cultivators in Shencheng, only this Dajiangtang does not take the rules of heaven into consideration at all. As long as there are If they don't have money, they will interfere unscrupulously in mortal affairs. It's a pity that we have spent eighty years and still can't get rid of Dajiangtang early, and we don't know who the mysterious organizer behind Dajiangtang is."
Old Taoist Qingfeng said in a deep voice.
After Li Changqing listened, he raised his eyebrows and said nothing more.
Naturally, she couldn't blame these three ancestors, as well as the people from the Seven Immortals Alliance who used to be on duty in Shen City. Why couldn't they take advantage of Dajiangtang after more than eighty years? The former disciples of the Seven Immortals Alliance must have also spent their time. Countless efforts have been made to trace the foundation of this Dajiangtang, but it can only be said that this Dajiangtang is too mysterious.
But at this moment, Li Changqing secretly made up his mind that during the period of time he was on duty in Shencheng, he must uproot the Dajiang Hall.
At this time, Master Daoji spoke and asked a question.
"That young monk, have you found out his identity?"
This sentence was addressed to Monk Huaiyue and Xi Chu, but Master Daoji’s eyes fell more on Monk Huaiyue.
Compared with Dajiangtang, it is easier to find out the identity of the young monk, because as long as he goes to Du Wenqiang, the leader of the Youth Gang, he should be able to know the identity of the young monk.
Monk Huaiyue stood up with a strange expression. He seemed to hesitate for a moment, and then said something to Master Daoji:
"The disciple looked at those who witnessed what happened at Zhang Hushan's house last night. In the souls of those whose memories were erased, the traces of the spell that erased their memories seemed to be left by the power of the Flower Blooming Sutra."
The words of Monk Huaiyue made Master Daoji's expression suddenly change.
He did not ask Monk Huaiyue if he saw it wrong, even though Monk Huaiyue used the word "seems".
But every Buddhist disciple who knows the "Flower Blooming Sutra" will never mention these three words if he is not completely sure.
Qingfeng Laodao and Zou Zhen looked at Master Daoji at the same time. At this moment, they both felt the vibration in Master Daoji's mind just now.
Master Daoji smiled bitterly at the two of them and said:
"That monk is a disciple of the Xinxiang Sect."
Qingfeng Laodao and Zou Zhen said in unison, with a look of surprise on their faces.
"Is there a disciple of the Xinxiang Sect in Shencheng?"
Then Old Taoist Qingfeng asked curiously.
"There has always been a temple hidden in a shady alley, but our Buddhist sect has never told you about this."
Master Daoji had an apologetic look on his face.
However, Qingfeng Laodao and Zou Zhen also had understanding.
"...Then, let's leave this matter as it is."
Finally, Qingfeng Lao Dao said this.
What he meant was that the Seven Immortals Alliance was not prepared to continue pursuing this matter.
They have no control over Dajiangtang.
The young monk was also beyond control.
It's just that there are some subtle differences between the two uncontrollables.
Li Changqing didn't understand at first, so after the regular meeting, she went to find Qingfeng Laodao.
"Xinxiang Sect...this is the secret of their Buddhist sect, and the old Taoist actually doesn't fully understand it."
"That is a branch of Buddhism. The Buddhism they preach and believe in is somewhat different from the Buddha of orthodox Buddhism."
"In other words, this Xinxiang Sect is a traitor to Buddhism?"
"That's not true. Otherwise, the Xinxiang Sect might have been wiped out long ago. There is a Xinxiang Temple in Shencheng, but Daoji and the others have turned a blind eye to it for so many years."
"The old Taoist only knows that it was a public case in Buddhism a long time ago, probably in the Fourth Yuanhui era."
"At the Bon Bon in a certain year, the Buddha was giving a lecture, and then one of his disciples questioned him in public, and even had a heated argument with the Buddha."
"But the Buddha did not blame the disciple, he just expelled him from the mountain gate."
"And that disciple of the Buddha later established the Xin Xiang Sect, claiming that only their Xin Xiang Sect can truly allow people to reach the other side."
"However, the Buddha never condemned the disciple as an alien, and never regarded the Buddhist teachings preached by the Xinxiang Sect as heresy. At that time, he just said that there is no difference between flowers blooming, and allowed the disciple to leave Buddhism. Established its own sect."
"As for the relationship between the Xinxiang Sect and orthodox Buddhism, the veteran is not very clear. I only know that the disciples of the Xinxiang Sect have always been mysterious and unwilling to come into contact with the orthodox Buddhist disciples, and the orthodox Buddhist disciples seem to have Disciples of the Xinxiang Sect are more taboo."
"In short, although they both belong to Buddhism, they have never interacted with each other until death."
"As for the matter of the Xinxiang Sect monk this time, let them handle it themselves. It is not convenient for us to interfere."
This is Qingfeng Laodao's explanation to Li Changqing.
Therefore, the major event that happened in Jingcheng last night was considered to be over on the side of the Seven Immortals Alliance.
The Alliance of Seven Immortals did not know that the person who really took the lead in what happened last night was not Dajiangtang or the monk from Xinxiang Temple, but another young man whom they had not noticed.
And the fight between the two Green Gang bosses that happened last night had a very secret cause that was far beyond their imagination.
…
Ouyang Hai left Paramount at about 11:30 pm.
In fact, he hadn't had enough of drinking or having fun at all, and he was a little reluctant to let go of Wenwen.
Wenwen is the woman dancing with him tonight.
Ouyang Hai had never seen this Wenwen in Paramount before, but when he was doing the opening dance at the Dancer Gate, he noticed at a glance that this girl was only wearing light makeup among the dancers with heavy makeup, and she looked a little overwhelmed. A woman who often dances the wrong steps feels like she is so pure and young.
So Ouyang Hai ordered Wenwen to accompany him.
After chatting with this woman who didn't dare to lean on him when sitting down, Ouyang Hai found out that today was Wenwen's first day at Paramount, and she was still a college student, and her family background was not very good. A few days ago, her father was seriously ill again. In order to help her father raise medical expenses, she found a way to work as a dancer here after hearing that a Paramount dancer could earn thousands of dollars a month. Dancer's.
After hearing Wenwen's experience, Ouyang Hai expressed deep sympathy.
Especially when Wenwen told him this, her eyes were slightly red, and she had a charming temperament that made me feel pity for him.
Ouyang Hai really wanted to pity him.
So he is going to help this charming woman become a real dancer so that Wenwen can make more money.
So Ouyang Hai began to patiently tell Wenwen about his many years of experience in singing and dancing halls.
For example, you can't make much money just by dancing in a ballroom with your customers. If you really want to make money, you have to go out for supper with your customers and do something else by the way.
Of course, the more profitable thing is to get acquainted with really rich people in song and dance halls, and find ways to make them like you. If you can become the wife of these rich people, then you will be out of the sea of misery, and you can live a better life from now on. It’s a life of food and drink.
Finally, Ouyang Hai told Wenwen that if she was willing to go out for supper with him today and something happened, he would be willing to teach Wenwen more ways to become an excellent dancer.
At the beginning, Wenwen just looked at him with some horror, but after Ouyang Hai patiently persuaded her, the female college student gradually showed hesitation and struggle in her eyes.
Unfortunately, just when Ouyang Hai was about to strike while the iron was hot and turn the woman next to him into a real dancer tonight, gunfire sounded like exploding beans at Paramount.
Then Ouyang Hai, who was sitting in the corner, saw Shu Guan walking in from outside.
Ouyang Hai sighed, thinking that as long as he met this guy, nothing good would happen.
Ouyang Hai did not go over to say hello to Shu Guan. He was not interested in this matter at all.
And there was a shooting incident just outside his house, and it also involved a Shanghai big shot like Du Wenqiang. It was impossible for Paramount to continue operating tonight.
As for Wenwen, when the gunfire rang out, she ran away in panic without knowing where she was.
Ouyang Hai, who was infinitely disappointed, picked up the half-drunk bottle of whiskey on the table and walked out of the gate of Paramount with the flow of terrified people.
But he still didn't go home. He drank and walked alone and desolately on the street late at night, no different from the poor drunkards on the street.
Then he walked to the riverside, sat on a bench by the riverside, drank wine silently, and waited for dawn.
When the first ray of morning light from the east fell on the river, he finally drank the entire bottle of whiskey.
A middle-aged man wearing a dark suit, carrying a bag of steamed buns and fried dough sticks in one hand, a glass of soy milk in the other, and a newspaper under his arm, walked past him.
After walking more than ten meters, this middle-aged man, who looked like he had gotten up early to wait for the bus to go to work, looked around for a moment, then suddenly turned back, came to the bench where Ouyang Hai was sitting, and sat down. to the other end of the stool.
The middle-aged man placed the soy milk and fried dough stick buns in the center of the bench between him and Ouyang Hai, then opened the newspaper and read it.
Ouyang Hai ignored the middle-aged man sitting next to him. After drinking the last drop of whiskey in the bottle, he took out a pack of Beautiful Brand cigarettes, took one out and lit it in his mouth.
But at this moment, a hand reached out from behind the newspaper and took the cigarette away from the corner of his mouth.
"Smoking less, especially after drinking. By the way, drink less wine too. How many times have I advised you."
A mellow voice came from behind the newspaper.
"Eat the steamed buns and soy milk first. It's still hot. I guess you haven't had breakfast."
Although I took three days off this month, the number of updates still reached 150,000, which is considered true to my word.
It’s a new month soon, and the two mythical beasts at home can finally return to their cages. I hope to update them more in the new month.
Please vote for the new month.
