A few days later, the digital masters all returned to the Sima family's headquarters one after another. Only the fourth master was unable to escape and did not return in time. In the past few days, Wei Jing finally had a sword duel with Sima Sect Master. This time Sima Sect Master used the two famous sword skills at the same time and wielded them freely. Wei Jing made many strange moves but was still defeated, so he had no choice but to admit defeat.
On this day, Sima Sect Leader saw that the heads of the family had returned, so he called everyone to gather in the middle hall of the main room. There was an ink painting of figures hanging on the wall of the middle hall.
The scenery and characters are all freehand, with only a hint of their shape. The person in the picture seems to be a young man wearing a long gown. He is sitting in the bamboo forest, playing the piano with both hands, and standing next to him is an unsheathed long sword. sword.
There are two banners next to the picture. The right side reads "The bright moon and the courage of the sword level the sea", and the left side reads "The end of the world and the heart of the piano illuminate the past and present". The brushwork is vigorous and powerful, but there is a hint of literati elegance.
After everyone sat down, Sima Yu first said: "Let's first talk about our respective progress in recent days, and finally ask the second brother to explain the whole story of "The Return of Ten Thousand Warriors". Third brother, please go first!"
Cheng Zixian said: "Since I returned from the Qingcheng Sect last time, I went to Nanjing to investigate the matter of "The Return of Ten Thousand Military Forces". I can be regarded as a pawn for my second brother. I will explain it to my second brother later."
Sima Yu nodded and said, "That's true. Fortunately, you went to investigate first. Otherwise, we don't know who will win this time."
Lu Qingdi said: "I have nothing important to do here. The matter of Fentian Village is considered a misinformation, so I won't mention it."
Ren Qianyun asked: "Misinformation? So Fentianzhai didn't want to rob the Bafang Escort Bureau's escorts?"
Lu Qingdi said: "There is a calamity mark, but the Fentian Village is just a bunch of rabble, and the leader of the village, Zhou Qing, claims to be the 'Twelve Xinyang Villages, the best in swordsmanship', but the result is all nonsense. Ten moves will be all it takes, I think if we just let Cao Zhifeng go, we can settle it nine times out of ten."
Ren Qianyun smiled and said: "That's because he was unlucky. When he met our Fifth Brother Lu, he couldn't show his majesty!"
Lu Qingdi also smiled and said: "Seventh sister, please don't laugh at me. I dare say that any one of you here will meet Zhou Qing within ten moves. I guess the Bafang Escort Bureau heard that there are many of them, and Frightened by Zhou Qing's fame, they asked for help on the martial arts road. In fact, they only needed to find a few more skilled bodyguards in the local area, and they could probably cope with it. Later, we joined forces with the Bafang Escort Agency to find Fentian Village stronghold, and easily overturned their old lair."
Sima Yu said: "In any case, as long as everyone and the escorts are fine, then there won't be any forces in Xinyang that we need to pay attention to?"
Lu Qingdi said: "Most of the remaining people are small people who are not worth worrying about. After the incident of robbing the escorts at Fentian Village is over, I will follow the instructions of the third brother and go to Nanjing."
Sima Yu nodded and said: "In this way, fifth brother no longer needs to pay attention there. I will just find another diner to keep an eye on."
Sima Yu then said to Zhang Wuchang: "Sixth brother, is there any news about Situ Peng later?"
Situ Peng is a bandit who has been rampant in Qingzhou in recent years. Not only is he ruthless in his attacks, but he also possesses great martial arts skills, making him different from ordinary bandits.
Situ Peng not only targeted ordinary people, but also people in the martial arts community. This attracted the attention of the local martial arts community. Just a few days ago, the whereabouts of Sima's diners were traced, so Sima Yu asked Zhang Wuchang to go there to see if he could help the people. Get rid of harm.
Zhang Wuchang replied briefly: "Kill with one knife."
Wei Jing smiled and said: "As long as you are targeted by Sixth Brother's "Photographic Flying Knife", who will not be killed with one blow?"
Cheng Zixian chanted: "Sixth brother wants someone to die at the third watch, who dares to stay alive until the fifth watch?"
Zhang Wuchang said helplessly: "How can this happen?"
Sima Yu also smiled and said, "Stop teasing your sixth brother."
Ren Qianyun continued: "The conflict between the Xianyue Sect and the Taixing Sect on my side has been resolved. Although outsiders intervened, we checked and found that it was not the Tianji Pavilion. Since both families are Taoist sects, later the Xianyue Sect The leader then suggested regular exchanges of Taoism, so we can finally turn enemies into friends, right?"
Sima Yu nodded and said: "That's right. Although Tianji Pavilion is ambitious and has many plans, we can't rely on them for everything and let the real culprit go free."
Lu Qingdi said: "Since ancient times, when we are neighbors, few people can live in peace. It is lucky to have such an ending."
Ren Qianyun continued: "There are a few diners who performed well this time. For example, He Wanci's sword skills have improved again. I guess the fourth sister may recommend her to be promoted to White Jade Diner."
Wei Jing thought to himself: "Miss He's swordsmanship is completely different from that of Miss Qin. We can learn from each other. One day we should find her to compete with Miss Qin."
Sima Yu said: "Thank you for your hard work, Qimei! In the future, I will send people to maintain the relationship between the two factions on a regular basis."
After saying that, he saw that everyone had nothing else to say, so he said to Wei Jing: "Second brother, please tell me about this episode of "The Return of Ten Thousand Warriors to the Hidden Area"."
Wei Jing said: "Okay!"
Then he explained in detail what happened in this year's "Wanwu Returns to Tibet" from the beginning. After the explanation was finished, Sect Master Sima asked: "Li'er, you have visited Nanjing in person this time. What do you think?"
Wei Jing collected his thoughts for a while, and then said: "In my opinion, although Ji Cangran, the master of Tianji Pavilion, said that "The Return of Ten Thousand Warriors" was to calm disputes, it was actually not the case. First of all, he said on the first day that victory or defeat would not matter. Level requires participants not to offend the harmony. However, in the arena, the most important thing for many people is reputation. No one wants to lose in front of everyone. As far as I can see, only a few people with good cultivation and good sense can really People value harmony and point as far as they can. The more angry others are, the bigger things will get."
Wei Jing continued: "Furthermore, Tianji Pavilion invited many Jianghu Caosang to attend the competition. Many of them are straight-tempered warriors who don't know how to avoid speaking. They say, 'So-and-so sect is really not as good as so-and-so sect', 'So-and-so swordsmanship'." There are so many things like this that are really exaggerated, and letting these people speak freely on the sidelines only adds fuel to the fire."
Cheng Zixian said: "If I were Tianji Pavilion, I would definitely deploy some people to guide the conversation among the crowd, so that the outcome would develop in the worst direction, and make the sects become enemies even if they don't have any hatred."
Lu Qingdi also said: "At that time, they pretended to be members of the Xiyun Sect and jointly framed the Sima family. However, it is still unknown how many of their men were still present."
Wei Jing added: "Three, "Wanwu Guizang" only competes for more than two hours a day, extending the duration to more than twenty days, and the Jingxin Village is still open at night. On the surface, Tianji Pavilion provides a communication occasion, but in this atmosphere, I think it’s only true that it provides an occasion for people to quarrel.”
Cheng Zixian nodded and said: "During Su Yunshen and I's investigation in the village, we did see many sects disagreeing with each other and breaking up on bad terms. Most of the time, there was a competition between the two sects on the field, and then there were conflicts outside the field. .”
Wei Jing said: "Finally, Tianji Pavilion will announce the list of good grades to the world in Jingxin Village. Only a few people on the list can be in the top grades, and most are after the sixth grade. As a result, the results are not ideal. The sect may be dissatisfied, and if Tianji Pavilion continues to fan the flames, it will easily lead to disagreements and disputes."
Sima Yu said: "It seems that this list is not only for grading martial arts, but also for sects and gangs."
Sect Leader Sima stroked his beard and said, "Is there any clue in Prime Minister Ming's book?"
Wei Jing said: "This is exactly what I want to discuss with everyone. According to Shaolin and Wudang speculations, Zangyuting's next targets are all in the Xiangyang area. The most famous martial arts sects nearby, except for Wudang who seem to be cooperating with Tianji Pavilion, Outside the sect, there is Qihuang Villa!"
