Lu Jiong said: "Ge Ruliang and Dugu Chu didn't fall in love at first sight. At that time, the owner of the village Ge was just a boy from the Zhuge family, but Dugu Chu was the only daughter of the head of the Dugu family of a large family in Longxi. She can be said to be a little princess who is loved by thousands of people. How could Ge Ruliang fall in her eyes? What’s more, the two of them were..."
Lu Jiong glanced at Jiang Shuo and said, "The two of them were probably the same age as Young Master Jiang and Xiang'er when they first met."
Hearing Lu Jiong mention Xiang'er, Jiang Shuo couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart. He thought of the scene when he and Xiang'er first met. How could he have imagined that the two of them would travel together in the mountains and rivers of Tang Dynasty, and end up in this situation today?
Lu Yuxuan knew that Jiang Shuo must be feeling uncomfortable, so he quickly changed the topic, pretending to be interested, and asked: "Then how did Master Ge win the favor of a beautiful woman later on?"
Lu Jiong said: "Although Dugu Wen's martial arts is high, he really has no interest in being the best in the world. Not long after the Douji Peak Conference, he bid farewell to the northern warriors and came to the south of the Yangtze River."
Xie Yanchang came to ask: "I have always wondered why Dugu Wenhui became the Lord of Dongting Lake later? I only know that when Dugu Wenhui went to Jiangnan, a big fight broke out in the Jianghu Alliance, and then he became the Lord of Dongting Lake. But even though Dugu Wen’s martial arts skills are extraordinary, it is not difficult to seize the position of Lake Lord, but why didn’t he directly compete for the leader of the Jianghu Alliance? And why did he seize the position of Lake Lord while the other four lakes in the Jianghu were indifferent? "
Lu Jiong said: "Dugu Wen did not come to seize the position of the Lake Master. He happened to encounter the civil strife in the Jianghu Alliance... Talking about the shame of the Jianghu Alliance during this civil strife, it is not enough for outsiders to say, but since we are all brothers of the same faction now, Okay, there's no harm in talking about it. Dugu Wen was obsessed with musical instruments, and bamboo and wood for making musical instruments are mostly produced in Jiangnan. Naturally, Dugu Wen was very attracted to it, so he accepted Li Yong's invitation and took his two other sons to visit Jiangnan. Encountered a rebellion by the former owner of Dongting Lake!"
Jiang Shuo widened his eyes and said, "Has the Jianghu Alliance ever rebelled?"
Lu Jiong said: "Young Master Jiang, you have only been the leader of the alliance for three years, but you should also be able to see that the Jianghu Alliance is not a solid wall."
Jiang Shuo had a good heart. Whether it was the siege of Ge Ruliang or the internal strife of the Juben Gang, it can be seen that Wuhu is vaguely divided into three factions, one is Zhenze in the east, the second is Juben and Pengli in the middle, and the third is in the west. Dongting and Baqiu.
Lu Jiong said: "Now among the Jianghu Alliance, Zhenze is the most prosperous, but back then, the Dongting Gang was the dominant one. Baqiu was close to Dongting and was almost reduced to a vassal, and was about to be annexed. The Zhenze, Jujin, and Pengli gangs were Form an alliance to protect yourself. Although Li Yong does not know martial arts, he is a chivalrous, just and selfless man. No one can object to him. However, the power of the Lord of Dongting Lake is so great that he inevitably has greater ambitions and constantly clashes with other factions. There were conflicts, and people were often killed or injured as a result of the fights.”
Xiao Dayou was speechless and said: "Hey, my dear, I thought that our Cao Gang was constantly attacking each other, but I didn't expect that the Jianghu Alliance back then was not much better."
Nan Jiyun said: "Don't talk about Xiao Lang, Nan Ba, I haven't heard of this history either."
Xie Yanchang said: "Hey... Xiao Lang, what you said is wrong. Our Cao Gang was not the same faction back then. It is not surprising that we fought and killed each other for territory. Now we have Young Master Jiang as our co-leader, but that's There is no more discord in the world.”
Xiao Dayou said hurriedly: "Yes, yes, that's what Lao Xie said." Then he asked Lu Jiong: "What happened next?"
Lu Jiong said: "Back then, at the Douji Peak Conference, heroes from all over the world were invited, and the Jianghu Alliance was naturally invited. Li Yong was originally going to go with the Lord of the Five Lakes, but the Lord of the Dongting Lake did not go because he was ill, and took advantage of Li Yong and the Lord of the Four Lakes to be there. At Kongtong Mountain, the Lord of Dongting suddenly launched an attack, and Baqiu was the first to bear the brunt. However, Lord Baqiu, the master, was already aware of his plot because he was close to Dongting, and he had already ordered several of our disciples to escape in advance."
Except for Xie Yanchang, everyone else was a junior in the martial arts world. They either didn't know or didn't know much about the secrets of the world. They followed Ge Qizhen silently while listening to Lu Jiong's story. No one interrupted him. "
But I heard Lu Jiong continue to say: "Baqiu escaped completely. Peng Li and Ju Zhen were not so lucky. Most of the gang's masters were killed. Fortunately, Zhenze was far away and got the news and formed a stronghold to resist. Ku." They struggled until Li Shijun and the other lake masters came back. Unexpectedly, the master of Dongting Lake got help from an expert. The man was so powerful that he killed Peng Li and Ju Chen's old gang leader with one strike, and Hun Weiming's grandfather was also seriously injured. .”
Jiang Shuo thought to himself that this was probably the reason why Hun’s second brother, Grandpa, died young later.
One of the reasons.
Lu Jiong continued: "Fortunately, the three sons came together at this time, and the three of them worked together to defeat the helpers invited by the Lord of Dongting Lake, and then restored the order of the Jianghu Alliance."
Jiang Shuo suddenly felt something in his heart and said, "Wait a minute... The three sons join forces to defeat the one who is defeated... Could it be that the helper the Lord of Dongting Lake is looking for is Beimingzi?"
Lu Jiong was stunned and said, "No...it's Kong Kong'er, the number one killer in the world!"
Jiang Shuo was shocked, isn't Kong Kong'er just Beimingzi? He then thought about it, it turned out that Brother Lu and the others didn't know that Beimingzi was Kong Kong'er. Master Zhao and the other three sons only talked about Beimingzi and not Kong Kong'er, which was actually to cover it up. Otherwise, he had killed so many people. But he was allowed to retreat, even if he said it, he would not be able to convince the public. ".
Sure enough, Lu Jiong said: "Kong Kong'er comes and goes like the wind. Although he stumbled in the hands of the third son, he still ran away. But from now on, no one in the world has heard of Kong Kong'er's name. It’s also possible that he died of serious injuries and died in some deserted mountain.”
Naturally, Jiang Shuo would not point out that Kong Konger was Beimingzi. He only asked, "What about the Lord of Dongting Lake?"
Lu Jiong said: "As soon as Kongkong'er left, even though Dongting was powerful and had many masters, they could not stop the three sons. The three sons captured the lake owner alive on Junshan Mountain in Dongting Lake and exiled him to a deserted island in the South China Sea. Only then did he The rebellion was quelled. However, the Jianghu Alliance was severely weakened and wanted to recruit martial arts heroes into the Jianghu Alliance. Senior Dugu contributed the most to suppressing the rebellion and loved Jiangnan. Li Shijun invited him to join, and finally did The Lords of Dongting, Nan Ba and Cheng Lang also entered the Jianghu Alliance after this."
Xiao Dayou said: "Lu Da, you haven't said how Master Ge became the son-in-law of the Dugu family."
Lu Jiong said: "Dugu Wen became the master of Dongting Lake. It turned out that he was on Junshan Mountain in Dongting, but Ge Ruliang chased him all the way from Kongtong Mountain to Dongting Lake."
Xiao Dayou said: "Hey, Master Ge, is he so romantic and sentimental at such a young age?"
Lu Jiong shook his head and said, "Xiao Lang was joking. I told you that they were young at that time, and Ge Ruliang wanted to study under Dugu Wen. Dugu Wen was an outlier in the Dugu family. He was extremely talented in martial arts, but he didn't like to practice martial arts. Tianxing Fengshui, Qimen Dunjia, Twelve Laws and Lu, and Sixty Nayin are actually part of "Yi". Ge Ruliang is also really talented. Dugu Wen likes him very much, regards him as his disciple, and teaches him everything he has learned. Got him."
Jiang Shuo said: "That's it. No wonder Lord Gezhuang knows everything about astronomy and geography."
Lu Jiong said: "Although A Chu is gentle and virtuous now, she was similar to Xiang'er back then and could be called a witch, but she fell in love with this nerdy senior brother. The two fell in love for a long time, and later they actually got married. .”
Jiang Shuo said: "Later, Mrs. Achu gave birth to Xiang'er and was injured by Feihongzi's Flame Soul Palm, so her family moved to Yuezhou Jianhu Xixi Villa to live in seclusion."
Lu Jiong said: "When the Xixi Villa was built, Dugu Chu had not yet been injured. It was just a villa for Dugu Wen when he was picking bamboo and making flutes in Keting. After Achu was injured, the family moved to Xixi in order to heal her. The villa was expanded several times before it became the size it is today.”
While everyone was talking, they kept walking and walked several miles into the underground tunnel without realizing it.
Ge Qizhen suddenly said: "We are here." He asked everyone to turn into a bright tunnel.
After walking through this short section of the tunnel, Jiang Shuo looked up and saw that this was still a well. This time he did not dare to ask for help and let Ge Qizhen lead the way. He and the others circled up the small steps on the well wall. Out of the well.
But they saw that the well was not in an open-air courtyard, but a large hall. The sun was setting outside the hall at the moment, and the light that came through just now was the light cast by the many torches on the well. There were about hundreds of people surrounding the well, and these people turned out to be There are three types of attire: one is the Confucian attire like Ge Qizhen, the other is the Taoist attire of Gebu Huangguan, and the other is the Buddhist disciples in gray cloth monk robes.
The first three people were also dressed in the three sects. One looked like a virtuous old master, one was a Taoist priest wearing a crane cloak, and the other was a tall and lean monk wearing a blue cassock.
The three of them saluted Jiang Shuo and others together, and Jiang Shuo hurriedly returned the salute: "The three of them must be the three saints of Kongtong Mountain. This is an advantage for the junior Jiang Shuo."
The Taoist priest in the middle
"You are blessed with infinite blessings, Master Jiang. No need to be polite. I am Sima Qingyun, the master of Zixiao Palace." He said to the layman, "This is Zhuge Jingxu, the master of Taoist Palace." Then he said to the lean master. The monk made a comparison and said: "This is Tie Zheng Dogen, the abbot of *** Temple."
The two monks and laymen bowed to Jiang Shuo respectively, and the iron-clad Dao Yuan said: "We are just three old men, and the name of the Three Saints will never be mentioned again."
Jiang Shuo felt strange. Previously Ge Qizhen said that the Three Holy Cultivators were mentioned again, and now Monk Daoyuan said the same thing. He didn't know if they were being polite or if they had something to hide.
Zhuge Jingxu said, "Young Master Jiang is coming from afar. Please forgive me for my inconvenience in waiting for your guests."
Tie Zheng Daoyuan said: "Brother Zhuge, let's put aside the polite words for now. This little friend is the world-famous Young Master Jiang? Why don't I believe it so much?"
When Xiao Da heard this, he stopped and said angrily: "Old bald donkey, you dare to be disrespectful to my young master. I'm looking for a beating!"
As he said this, he forgot that he had lost his inner strength, and struck Tie Zheng Daoyuan in the face with his fist.
Tie Zheng Daoyuan snorted coldly and said: "Based on your skills, do you still want to stand up for others?" He could see whether Xiao Da had internal strength, but he didn't know that he had lost his internal strength because of the bright salt. He only said He was just a reckless servant, so he reached out and touched Xiao Dayou's shoulder.
Jiang Shuo had already seen that this push contained extremely superb martial arts. He was the last to attack and was able to restrain Xiao Dayou immediately. Not to mention that Xiao Dayou had no internal power at all now, even if he had not lost his internal power. If he could not deal with it properly, , I'm afraid I have to sit on the ground and vomit blood. He couldn't help but frown, thinking that there was no injustice in his heart. Why did this monk take such a heavy blow?
Jiang Shuo immediately stretched out his hand and held Xiao Dayou's left hand, saying: "Hey, Brother Xiao, why do you shout and kill each other as soon as we meet? Let's calm down the anger." As he spoke, he poured his inner strength into Xiao Dayou calmly. in vivo.
At this time, Tie Zheng Daoyuan's hand happened to press Xiao Dayou's shoulder. Xiao Dayou first felt a strong force coming like a mountain pressing down on him, and then immediately felt a surge of divine power in his body. After catching the force, his shoulder immediately started to move. No problem.
The Tongbei Fist he practiced already penetrated the strength of both his left and right arms. Using Jiang Shuo's internal force transmitted to his left arm, he drove his right arm to thrust towards the side of Dogen's neck.
Tie Zheng Daoyuan originally expected that this push would be able to pin down the man facing him, unable to move, but the opponent actually punched without any delay and still hit hard. He couldn't help but be surprised. He originally used his left hand to push Xiao Dayou's right shoulder. , seeing that it was ineffective, he quickly stretched his right hand out from his left arm to block Xiao Dayou's right fist.
Jiang Shuo whispered to Xiao Dayou: "Flick his left palm back."
Xiao Dayou perked up and said, "Okay!" He thrust his right shoulder upwards, his right palm came out from underneath, and bounced Daoyuan's left palm back. Daoyuan's right palm hit him just in time, and the two palms were aligned. Hit, put their hands together with a "pop" sound.
