Jiang Shuo thought about it and realized that Yan Zhuang was right. He had indeed eavesdropped on Fan Yang and his gang conspiring with others many times, and then broke into them and disrupted the other party's plans. He couldn't help but smile.
Dugu Xiang was captured by Yin Ziqi, but he was not merciful. He imitated Yin Ziqi and laughed twice and said, "Mr. Yin is joking. When it comes to chickens crowing, dogs stealing and plundering, no one can compare with Fan Yang Jiedushi."
Yin Ziqi used one hand to push An Qingxu out of the palace to drain the blood and treat internal injuries. With the other hand, Yin Ziqi still held Dugu Xiang and sneered: "Little girl, if you dare to speak harshly, I will tear your mouth apart one day."
Duguxiang said: "Hey, Mr. Yin, you are a famous figure in the martial arts world. How could you bully a weak woman like me? You scare me, but I am not afraid."
Dugu Xiang handled Yin Ziqi very accurately. Yin Ziqi always thought highly of himself, so he would not embarrass a little girl. He only took Dugu Xiang to hold Jiang Shuo hostage. Although Yin Ziqi did not think that Jiang Shuo's martial arts skills were better than his own, this boy's internal strength was so advanced at such a young age that he was indeed a difficult person to deal with. There were still Shenhui present today, and if Jiang Shuo and Shenhui teamed up, Yin Ziqi would have no chance of winning. Therefore, he held Dugu Xiang as a threat, so that Jiang Shuo did not dare to take action.
Dugu Xiang asked Jiang Shuo as if no one else was watching, "Brother Shuo, why are you here?"
Jiang Shuo said: "I still want to ask you why you are here? That day in the Shaolin Temple, the Demon Cult suddenly used bright salt in the Dharma Hall to stun the eminent monks of the Northern Shaolin Sect and escaped through the tunnel. I will go out to find you again. At that time, I only met Lord Hunhu, who said that you were also captured by the Demon Cult."
Dugu Xiang said: "They were indeed taken away. They suddenly emerged from the mountain, subdued everyone with incense burners filled with bright salt, and took them all away."
Jiang Shuo said, "Then Xiang'er, how did you escape?"
Dugu Xiang chuckled and said, "Brother Shuo, have you forgotten? Didn't we Beidi snatch two bottles of antidote from Cui Qianyou and Tian Qianzhen on the cliff pavilion of Longquan Temple?" When she spoke, she pointed at Cui Qianyou at the scene. , Tian Ershi, their faces were red and white, and they didn't look good. Dugu Xiang ignored them and continued: "But I used the antidote but still pretended to be poisoned, so they still arrested me. I want to see Look at what's going on behind them...I didn't expect it, hehe...it's really fun."
Jiang Shuo said curiously: "When Lord Hunhu and I chased you out, we saw footprints entering the forest. After I chased you into the forest, I couldn't see the footprints on the ground, but I couldn't find you."
Dugu Xiang said: "Brother Shuo, you are confused... People who have been poisoned by the bright salt are weak and unable to move. They kidnapped so many people in one breath, and there is no carriage. How can they carry dozens of people one by one?" Satoyama Road?"
Jiang Shuo said: "I'm also thinking that even if a master can carry one person on his back and still walk as fast as flying, after all, it's impossible for everyone in the Demon Cult to be such a master. So many people go into the mountains without seeing the light of torches, but they can go so far. quick?"
Dugu Xiang said: "It's not just you, there are a group of monks wandering around in the mountains, but they haven't been found..."
Jiang Shuo said confusedly: "Yes, at that time Master Huiwen suddenly became crazy and grabbed me and said that I colluded with the devil sect and kidnapped many eminent monks, so that all the Shaolin monks came to chase me. I was looking for him in the forest. You, while avoiding the group of monks, ended up crossing Songshan Mountain unknowingly... Oh, no, Xiang'er, how did you know that a group of Shaolin monks were looking for someone in the mountain? Could it be..."
Duguxiang said: "Hey, of course they also dug into the tunnel. It turns out that there are several huge underground palaces under the Shaolin Temple. All the people they kidnapped are right below the temple. I spare you from searching everywhere, but I didn't expect that everyone was there." Isn’t it fun to stay where you are without going anywhere?”
Jiang Shuo exclaimed "Ah..." and said, "Hey, I wish I had gone down to the tunnel faster..."
Dugu Xiang said: "It's useless. The four doors of this underground palace are sealed with extremely thick stone doors. The entrance to the tunnel you are supposed to be in must also be blocked. Brother Shuo, no matter how strong your internal strength is, I'm afraid you won't be able to open it." These stone gates."
Jiang Shuo wondered: "That's not right. If this stone gate cannot be opened manually, how can everyone in the Demon Sect get in and out?":
Dugu Xiang said: "There is a mechanism in the underground palace that can raise the stone gate, but it requires dozens of people to turn the winch, but it cannot be lifted outside."
Jiang Shuo nodded, then shook his head and said: "
That's still wrong. If it can only be opened from the inside, wouldn't it mean that people live in the underground palace of Shaolin Temple all year round? Otherwise, once the outer door is sealed and no one is inside, wouldn't it be impossible to get in again? "
Dugu Xiang said: "Brother Shuo, why are you so stubborn? Of course there is a small corridor that can be entered."
Jiang Shuo said: "Since there is a small path to enter, isn't this huge door useless?"
Dugu Xiang said: "Do you want to hear what I have to say..."
Jiang Shuo had no choice but to stop asking and let Dugu Xiang continue. What was strange was that Yin Ziqi and Yan Zhuang did not stop Dugu Xiang. An Qingxu's injury was not serious. Yin Ziqi gave him a little massage and spit out a mouthful of bruises, and he was fine. , he just stood away and let Dugu Xiang speak. Cui, Tian Ershi and Ruixi couldn't defeat each other for a moment, so they simply stopped and listened to Dugu Xiang. For a moment, the entire Demon Cult General Forum actually fell silent, but they listened to Dugu Xiang telling stories there.
Jiang Shuo suddenly thought of Ye Qingyao. Ye Qingyao had not followed him when he came out. Now he looked back and could only see the dark skylight between the roofs, but could not see Ye Qingyao's figure.
Dugu Xiang became the focus of everyone's attention, but he did not show any stage fright. He continued: "The Demon Cult took us into the underground palace. There were already people waiting inside. It turned out to be Gao Bujie and a group of Yiluohe warriors. They were hiding Underground, the demon sect and the monks from Western Shaolin were working on it. I saw a tablet in the underground palace that said "Sima Cave". "
Yan Zhuang said curiously: "Mr. Zhengyi, Sima Chengzhen's "Heaven and Earth Palace Map" states that there are thirty-six caves in the world, among which the sixth cave is Zhongyue Songshan Cave. It goes back three thousand miles and is named Sima Cave. It was enshrined in Zhongdu. County, the Immortal Deng Yunshan ruled it... Everyone knows that Sima Cave Heaven is somewhere on Taishi Mountain in Songshan Mountain, so there are many Taoist temples built in Taishi Mountain, but they did not expect that it is located under the Buddhist temple in Shaoshi Mountain."
Dugu Xiang said: "Hey... Yan Sheng, you don't know about the underground palace? Didn't the Demon Sect communicate with Fan Yang this time?"
Yan Zhuang smiled and said, "Shi Siming, Gao Bujie and the others are planning the Songshan matter, but I don't know the details."
Dugu Xiang said: "Oh... that's right. They are all on the same side as Third Young Master An Qinghe. Naturally, they will not communicate with Second Young Master. I think you want to get rid of Abo Damujia because he left with Third Young Master. It’s because it’s too close.”
Yan Zhuang laughed loudly and said, "Xiao Xiang'er also imitates other people's tactics of alienation. Just tell your story properly and don't keep secrets."
Dugu Xiang stuck out his tongue and continued: "The underground palace has apertures that communicate with the outside world, and there is a lot of noise in the underground palace. Therefore, the noise in the Shaolin Temple above can be heard very clearly. When the Shaolin monks chased after them, After a while, they opened the entrance to the underground palace on one side of the temple, Brother Shuo, guess who is here?"
Jiang Shuo thought for a moment and asked in surprise: "Is it Hui Wen?"
Dugu Xiang said: "I don't know his name yet, but Gao Buwei calls him Master Huiwen. It turns out that this person has been bribed by the Yan army. If Anlu Mountain rebels, the attack on Luoyang must pass through Song Mountain first. If Shaolin The monks usually assisted the Li Tang royal family during the founding of the Tang Dynasty. Wouldn't they become a nuisance when attacking from the side of Songshan Mountain? Therefore, Gao Buwei wanted to bribe the Shaolin Temple to work for the Yan army, or at least watch the fire from the other side, without helping each other."
Jiang Shuo said: "It must be that Master Huijue, the leader of Shaolin, refused, so they are looking for Western and Southern Shaolin to compete for the position of Shaolin Sect Master, while at the same time they are going to the North Shaolin Sect to bribe and dismantle them."
At this time, Shen Hui clasped his hands and said, "Amitabha, people from Fan Yang did come to visit Heze Temple, but they were rejected by Lao Na. Huiwen is in charge of the Tianwang Hall in Shaolin, which has the lowest status among all the halls in the temple. But the Tianwang Hall is responsible for the communication between Shaolin Temple and the outside world. Shaolin monks and laymen are spread all over the country, so there are many eyes and ears for wisdom, which is what Fan Yang values most."
Yan Zhuang said: "Mr. Gao is really smart. He is a good candidate for this company. If it were me, I would also look for Huiwen." Yan Zhuang and Gao Buwei are known as the two great counselors under An Lushan, but Gao Buwei is good at both literary and military skills. He often rushes to the front, but Yan Zhuang doesn't know martial arts, so he can only draw in the dark.
Duguxiang snorted disdainfully and said: "You guys are called like-minded... Huiwen came into the cave to point out people. It turned out that he had already won over many people in the Shaolin Temple, but the poison of light and salt overturned the monks. If we treat them differently, it is easy to reveal their flaws, so they are all poisoned first.
After the Shaolin monks chased him away, Huiwen sneaked into the underground palace again, pointed out his accomplices one by one, and Abo gave him the antidote. "
Jiang Shuo heard this and gritted his teeth: "I didn't expect Hui Wen to be such a person!"
Dugu Xiang said: "He ordered about twenty people. Most of the monks are still loyal to Master Huijue. After Huiwen ordered all the people, he will go out through the corridor with the people from the Demon Sect and Western Shaolin."
Jiang Shuo asked, "What about monks like Hui Jue?"
Dugu Xiang said: "They are very vicious. Anyway, after the Shaolin monks were poisoned, they lost all their internal strength and could not push the heavy winch to open the stone door, so they were left in the underground palace to die..."
Yan Zhuang said: "I'm afraid it's not all because of evil intentions. After all, Huiwen and Feihongzi both teach Buddhism. Buddhism's latest theory of reincarnation, they are afraid of doing things too far, and they are afraid that they will inevitably fall into hell and suffer after death. Therefore, if the monks are allowed to sit down and die on their own, the karmic debt of killing people will not be charged to them."
Dugu Xiang smiled and said, "Yes, yes...that's what Fei Hongzi said."
But Shen Hui clasped his hands and said, "This is a misinterpretation of Buddhist scriptures. As long as you have evil thoughts, it is karma. It doesn't matter whether you do it yourself..."
Dugu Xiang said: "How can these two old bald donkeys have the same level of cultivation as you, Master? In the future, they will naturally fall into hell and never be reincarnated." She called Huiwen and Feihongzi in front of the Shenhui and the monks from Zhongnan Shaolin. Bald donkey is really rude, but Shenhui just smiles and doesn't blame him.
Jiang Shuo said, "What about you and the others? Xiang'er, how did you get out of trouble?"
Dugu Xiang said: "Brother Shuo, don't worry, I'm about to talk about it... They only left the Shaolin monks in the underground palace of Sima Cave, but they wanted to take me, Ye Ye, my uncles from Jianghu League and Caobang Let's capture him together and take him to Kongtong Mountain... He said that in the future, if the thieves take over the Central Plains, there will be many places where the Caogang can be useful."
Yan Zhuang frowned and said, "This is not a good strategy. The most important thing for a knight in the world is righteousness. Even if you are trapped in Kongtong Mountain, you will not give in. This will offend people in vain, and there will be no good."
Dugu Xiang said: "Yan Sheng, you understand clearly. If it were you, what would you do?"
Yan Zhuang said with a smile: "If it were me, I would kill you all and support a group of cronies."
