Old Man Mo Jing and Jiang Shuo looked at each other. Old Man Mo Jing was surprised at Jiang Shuo's outstanding lightness skills. When he just rushed out of the house, Jiang Shuo was still behind him, but he flew over the courtyard wall two steps ahead of him. Second, he was surprised that this mysterious man was much faster than the two of them and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The two returned to the house. This time Jiang Shuo deliberately slowed down and followed the old man in sunglasses. When everyone saw the two returning, they all gathered around to ask. Old Mojing shook his head and said, "That man moved so fast, we didn't catch up." He then asked, "How is Daoyuan's injury?"
The paper ball in Tie Zheng Daoyuan's mouth had already been taken out. When this blow came, Daoyuan was opening his mouth to speak. The paper ball hit his teeth and broke his tongue. Then blood flowed out. It looked very scary, but in fact it was injured. It's not heavy, but the big teeth are a little loose, but they haven't broken or fallen off.
Everyone looked solemn, only Ye Guizhen said with a smile: "Brother Daoyuan, your appearance just corresponds to the hexagram of 'fire and thunder eating'. The "Xiang" says: Thunder and lightning eat, and the former king punished him with light. Dharma. Dogen, you said something disrespectful, so you received a small punishment. This can be called retribution in this world."
Tie Zheng Daoyuan was unhappy, but due to Ye Guizhen's identity, he had to hold back. On the one hand, everyone was extremely nervous, but on the other hand, they found it funny. The two martial arts seniors who came today, one was obsessed with grinding, and the other Obsessed with fortune telling, do the senior masters in the martial arts have all kinds of quirks?
A light ball of paper had the same effect as a pebble. Everyone was very surprised, especially the old man Mojing. Although he was known as the "Mojing Guest of Chisong Mountain", he was actually not in Chisong Mountain. He traveled from city to city and made a living by grinding mirrors for others. Therefore, although he had lived in seclusion for a long time and was quite familiar with the affairs of the world, he did not expect that he would have no clue when meeting such a master today.
Although the old man Mo Jing looked at the ancient mirror like the wind and the devil, it was his hobby. Ancient wise men and women often had strange quirks, such as Ji Kang's love of blacksmithing, Wang Jie's love of listening to donkeys braying, and Wang Xizhi's love of geese. They all had quirks. It’s not surprising that Mr. Mirror is obsessed with polishing mirrors.
In addition, Old Man Mojing is actually a versatile man in both civil and military arts. Each disciple he teaches is a separate martial art, and the weapons are never the same. For example, Nan Jiyun uses a bow, Lu Yuxuan uses a fan, and Xu Yuan uses a flying claw. , Lei Wanchun's boxing are all different, which shows that the old man Mo Jing's martial arts is mixed.
In addition to martial arts, Old Man Mojing was also highly skilled in literature. Lu Yuxuan and Xu Yuan were both talented people. Old Man Mojing was different from Dong Yanzi Zhao Rui. Zhao Rui had extremely high literary accomplishments. Although he wrote the biography of "The Long and Short Classics" Regarding Li Bai and Jiang Shuo, although what he wrote and thought, although there is no lack of true knowledge and insights, they are ultimately the opinions of scribes. What the old man Mo Jing learned was more practical, and he taught his disciples mostly the techniques of attack and defense, and the strategies of governing the country. .
Therefore, everyone was naturally looking at Old Mo Jing at this moment, waiting for his dispatch.
The old man Mo Jing said, "What's written on the paper?"
The ball of paper has been opened long ago, and there are still only two words on it - "beat the mouth"
This was obviously written in response to the word "thief" that Tetsuo Dogen had just called him. The old man Mo Jing twisted his beard and said, "It's strange that this person is so strong in kung fu and yet he doesn't seem to be very old."
Jiang Shuo looked at the note. It looked ordinary and he said curiously: "Senior, I see that the handwriting on this note is neat and it doesn't look like it was written by a naughty boy. How can you tell it is a young man?"
The old man Mo Jing said: "I didn't say he was a naughty boy, I just said he is not very old. He should be around your age, Young Master Jiang. He may be younger or older..."
Cheng Qianli said: "It seems that not only Ye Tianshi can tell fortunes, but you, Senior Mojian, can also tell fortunes. With just these two words, can you tell your age?"
Although everyone was not as outspoken as Cheng Qianli, they all thought the same way.
The old man Mo Jing explained: "It is precisely because the handwriting is so neat. If you think about a person who has been writing for decades, whether he is a martial arts veteran or a scribe, he may be holding a piece of paper and writing it in one go. It is not cursive, but regular script." , how could you write in block letters so seriously?”
Everyone looked at the note again and found that it was indeed the case, especially the word "mouth", which had so many strokes that most people would inevitably write in succession. However, the words on the note were written very carefully, one stroke at a time, but they seemed a bit... Being reserved is obviously not how an older person should write. "
Cheng Qianli said: "Maybe he didn't want to be recognized in his writing style, so he did it deliberately?"
Everyone just felt that what Old Mo Jing said was reasonable, and they also felt that Cheng Qianli's regular script was exactly the same as the one in the calligraphy.
The old man Mo Jing said: "The style of writing is just an example. You can tell from his behavior that he is a young man. Just now he was not angry when Daoyuan talked about his origin, and he was not upset when Young Master Jiang said that his poisoning was a lie. Say something irrelevant about 'thief', but he shows up in anger. Isn't this a sign of a young man's unstable mind?"
Jiang Shuo saw that everyone else was nodding, but he felt that it was normal for the man to hit Tie Zheng Daoyuan's mouth in anger. It seemed that this in turn proved that the mysterious man was indeed a young man of about the same age as him.
Seeing Jiang Shuo's eyes rolling and thinking about something, Old Man Jing asked, "Young Master Jiang, do you have any clues about this mysterious young man?"
Jiang Shuo shook his head in confusion and said, "I really don't know..."
The old man Mo Jing sighed: "I haven't asked about the affairs of the world for a long time, but I didn't expect that there would be heroes for so many years."
Sima Qingyun asked the old man Mo Jing: "Senior Mo Jian, how should we deal with it now?"
The old man Mo Jing smiled and said: "Qingyun... I think what Su Zhi said just now should be right. Since you are not poisoned, what do you have to be afraid of? I heard Daoyuan say that the man captured a disciple of the Kongtong sect, It's just hanging on a tree, it doesn't kill anyone, right?"
After thinking about it carefully, the Three Saints of Kongtong said in unison: "Indeed not."
Zhuge Jingxu said: "Now that I think about it, I just tapped the acupoints and sent him back. Not to mention killing him, there were no injuries at all on his body."
The old man Mo Jing twisted his beard and said: "He was just joking with you, including throwing paper balls, which shows that he has a playful nature. Judging from the content and timing of his letter, this person has no malicious intent. I’m afraid they are friends rather than enemies.”
Tie Zheng Daoyuan said: "Then what does he mean by doing this? If he is a friend, wouldn't it be better to just show up?"
Old Mo Jing laughed loudly and said: "If there is really a young man like Young Master Jiang who points out the three saints, will you listen to him?"
Everyone has a good heart, and they all feel that this truth seems so obvious, why haven't they thought of it earlier.
The old man Mo Jing said again: "In any case, the mysterious man asked the three Kongtong religions to stay on the mountain, and asked Young Master Jiang to come. Both of these two things were done. We are now determined to participate in the conference of the nine religions, and we will meet with them two days later. The decisive battle between the Demon Cult does not conflict with what the mysterious man wants, and he should not come out to sabotage it in the past two days."
Cheng Qianli asked: "Will he help me in the next two days?"
The old man Mo Jing said: "I don't know about this. We just assume that he won't help. It would be better if he takes action overtly or covertly. Even if he doesn't take action, we don't have to be disappointed. After all, now It seems that this young mysterious man is all joking."
After hearing this, everyone all said yes. Jiang Shuo saw that since the old man Mo Jing arrived, everyone seemed to have a backbone, and thought to himself: It seems that the leaders of the Jianghu need to act like this. Compared with the elders, although I am known as the leader of the Jianghu alliance, I am not the leader of the Cao Gang. Gang leader, but he doesn't know how to command the heroes at all.
Jiang Shuo's martial arts cultivation was only the beginning of many adventures when he obtained the Erlong Neidan. Since then, he has continued to receive guidance from masters. In addition to martial arts masters such as Zhao Rui, Li Hanguang, Dugu Wen, and Beimingzi, Cao Sheng Zhang Xu, the painting sage Wu Daozi, and even Gongsun Auntie, Wang Wei, etc., these people are all top experts in their respective fields. What they think and do deeply affects Jiang Shuo's understanding of martial arts. , every time he met the great gods of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, his kung fu got closer.
But no one taught him the skills of leading a group of heroes such as planning, dispatching, making decisions, and even soothing. Therefore, although Jiang Shuo is called the Young Master, he actually mostly relies on his peerless martial arts to fight alone. Today I met the leader of Old Man Mojing. I admire his style and can't help but yearn for him.
Jiang Shuo thought to himself: Such a senior and talented person should be the leader of the Jianghu Alliance. He thought to himself that after this matter is over, he can ask the old man Mo Jing to be the leader of the Jianghu Alliance and the Cao Gang, so as to avoid the hundreds of thousands of brothers in the two alliances from suffering like him. The drag of a competent "young master".
It's just that Jiang Shuo didn't say what he was thinking. Old Mojing didn't know what he was thinking. He was asking the Three Saints of Kongtong about the details of the arrangements for the Nine Sects Conference two days later. Ye Guizhen kept using his right thumb on his index finger and He pinched his middle finger and ring finger, and muttered something, as if he was calculating something.
The old man Mo Jing said: "The Nine Sects Conference will be held in two days. If you ask me, it is best for us to live in the same place to avoid any accidents in the next two days. It is also better to stay closer to each other so that we can take care of each other."
Then he said to Sima Qingyun: "Qingyun, the martial arts in the Central Plains is flourishing, and there are many sects derived from the major sects. It is impossible that all of them will be attacked by the demon sect. Before I came to Kongtong, I had already sent people to prepare for the Nine Sects Conference. The news has spread widely among people with lofty ideals from all sects and sects in the world, and there should be more people coming to visit us in the next two days, so Kongtong needs to be well received."
Sima Qingyun hurriedly stepped in and said yes.
Cheng Qianli said: "If you are not a master, no matter how many times you come, it will be useless."
The old man Mo Jing said: "Mr. Cheng, no matter how many people come, no matter how accomplished they are, they will always be a help. It should be noted that there are many disciples of the Demon Sect. We don't know what other sects are like, especially the sects outside the territory. If you bring someone with you, The three sects and us alone may not be enough for our disciples to pick up the opportunity and attack the mountain. It would be much better if the Central Plains martial arts community can help us."
Sima Qingyun and Zhuge Jingxu crossed their hands and said yes. In the house in the courtyard, they ordered their disciples to tidy up the beds and bedding so that everyone could live in this small hall. Old Mojing arranged the order of everyone's night watch, and then he felt relieved.
After that, everyone discussed many details, and disciples were sent in at noon. After a while, the sun set in the west, and it was the first watch of the night.
Some people died, but not completely...
