As soon as the old monk Jing Nian left, he heard Chen Xiaotian shouting loudly on the ring: "Dear heroes, it's already late, I declare that today's competition is over. The first stage of the competition will continue tomorrow, and I hope everyone will come to the stage enthusiastically. Chen, please take your leave first!"
After hearing this, the people in the audience were bustling and leaving one after another. When Chen Xiaotian saw that the people had dispersed, he led everyone back to the main stand.
As soon as he arrived on the stage, Chen Yixin stepped forward and said: "Father, my daughter has something to report to you..." Chen Xiaotian waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, we will discuss it back home. Where is Wang Rong now?" Chen Yixin said: "Mr. Wang is here. The house has arranged food for all the guests. If father is looking for her, I will send someone to call him right away?" Chen Xiaotian waved his hand and said: "No, we will go back to the house right now."
A group of people carried three stretchers and took Zhang Yi, Guan Xiulin and Luo Rencheng back to the Chen Mansion, and handed the three to doctors for treatment. Everything was arranged properly. In the Xuanzheng Hall, Chen Xiaotian was sitting in the middle, and the other guests were seated separately.
Chen Xiaotian has enjoyed a high reputation in the martial arts world for thirty years, and he is also the general who protects the country in Jinling. Therefore, although he did not post a hero post in this competition to recruit a bride, there were already countless famous martial arts figures who came here to attract their fame. Either the headmaster was present in person, or he sent his proud disciples to watch the ceremony, so the seats in the huge Xuanzheng Hall were filled with people of all kinds. Everyone sat down and heard Chen Xiaotian ask: "Where is Ma Desheng?" Ma Desheng stepped forward and saluted: "My subordinate is here!" Chen Xiaotian asked: "Where is the guy named Jinbao now?" Ma Desheng said: "He is being held in the dungeon of the mansion." Chen Xiaotian said, "Bring him to court."
Ma Desheng took the order and left. Seeing that Chen Xiaotian was going to interrogate the prisoner, Bujiu, Buhuo and others felt that it would be inconvenient to stay here, so they wanted to get up and leave. Chen Xiaotian twirled his beard and said, "You don't have to leave. Chen has something to ask everyone."
After hearing this, everyone stopped and asked the Taoist priest without confusion: "General Chen, you are so polite. I wonder what your orders are?" Chen Xiaotian said: "The two Taoist priests are the top masters of the Wudang sect, and they are well-known in the world. You are well-informed, have you ever heard of Palace Master Zhao of Caixia Palace?"
The two of them looked at each other without doubt, neither of them knew what Chen Xiaotian meant? He was not confused and asked: "Are General Chen kidding us? Thirty years ago, Caixia Palace, under the command of the old palace master Zhao Ye, was the largest gang in the world. Senior Zhao was not only highly skilled in martial arts and highly respected, but also He is upright and hates evil as much as his enemies. He often leads his disciples in the palace to perform chivalrous acts and eradicate evil. Even the abbot of Shaolin, Master Huizhen, respects him. The reputation of Mr. Zhao is well-known among our generation. I don’t know. I wonder, General Chen, why you suddenly asked about this matter?”
After hearing this, Pan Suxuan was secretly surprised: "If it is true as Taoist Master Buhuo said, our sect should have been a well-known and upright sect in the world thirty years ago, but why are we reclusive now and looking for traces in the world?"
Chen Xiaotian laughed and said, "The two Taoist priests are overly worried. I just want to ask you to confirm that Senior Zhao Ye and Zhao are indeed the master of Caixia Palace, and Caixia Palace is a well-known and upright sect with a far-reaching reputation."
He said without hesitation: "Of course. As long as all the heroes here are old, they must have heard of the reputation of Caixia Palace and Mr. Zhao." Chen Xiaotian glanced at Pan Suxuan and continued: "I dare you to ask what you have done in recent years. Have you heard about Caixia Palace’s actions in the world?”
Buhuo shook his head and said: "Maybe the two of us are ignorant, but Caixia Palace seems to have disappeared overnight in the past thirty years. We don't know what happened."
Chen Xiaotian said: "Wudang disciples are all over the world, and they are very well-informed. If the two Taoist priests are not aware of the changes in Caixia Palace, then it is probably because someone deliberately concealed the facts to achieve his ulterior purpose. To be honest, The old man also just recently learned that Palace Master Zhao was plotted by an adulterer many years ago and died in depression."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone present was shocked, and the Xuanzang Hall was silent for a while. Suddenly, the Taoist Master said without doubt: "Palace Master Zhao has world-class martial arts skills and a humble man. He has traveled around the world for decades and has never offended anyone. How could he suddenly be plotted against?" A fat monk also interjected and said: "Yes, there are many disciples in Caixia Palace. In addition, there are five elders, white-clothed protectors and other masters. Who can hurt him?" Another woman in coquettish clothes said: "Liu Dahai, what do you mean? Could it be that you don't believe Chen Is that what the general said?" After hearing this, the fat monk said displeasedly: "Hao Sanniang, don't try to stir up trouble! I just don't believe that Palace Master Zhao, who is so capable, could be poisoned by others."
Hao Sanniang sneered and said: "With your three-legged cat skills, of course you won't be able to hurt a single hair of Palace Master Zhao, but your ability to deceive women with sweet words is unrivaled in the world, otherwise you wouldn't be able to make so many young ladies fall for you. It’s upside down, isn’t it?”
In one sentence, everyone on the scene looked at the fat monk, and saw that he was furious and shouted: "Hao Sanniang! Please explain clearly, I am a monk, how can I do something that breaks the precepts?" Hao Sanniang said with round eyes. : "You are a person with an animal face! Have you forgotten how the two Yang sisters were deceived by your design and lost their virginity to you one after another, causing them to become pregnant before marriage, but you abandoned them and went to find new loves? The two sisters searched for you everywhere but to no avail. Filled with sorrow and hatred, they both threw themselves into the lake and died. Do you still remember the good things you did?!"
After hearing this, Liu Dahai became furious. In a flash, he was in front of Hao Sanniang. He stretched out his hand as big as a cattail leaf, grabbed Hao Sanniang's left arm, and twisted it hard to the right, trying to break his arm. Seeing this, Hao Sanniang hurriedly jumped into the air and turned her body in a circle to relieve the force. When Liu Dahai saw it, his arms suddenly exerted force and threw Hao Sanniang against the stone pillar of the hall. Hao Sanniang had nowhere to use her strength in the air and was about to hit a pillar. Suddenly she felt a wave of air behind her pushing her forward. She turned over and fell down, almost falling.
Just listen to Liu Dahai ask: "General Chen, what do you mean?" Chen Xiaotian said: "You threw her and she scratched her. You two don't owe each other. Today's fight ends here. If you The two of you are still interested in elegance, please choose another day to discuss it elsewhere, my Xuanzheng Hall is not a place for you to compete!"
At this moment, Liu Dahai felt a slight sting on his face. When he touched it with his hand, he found that there was a scar on his face at some point. He didn't know when he was injured by Hao Sanniang. He wanted to rush up and fight with her, but Chen Xiaotian stood aside, angry and scared, and glared at Hao Sanniang fiercely.
Hao Sanniang was about to thank Chen Xiaotian when she heard someone outside the hall shouting: "Here, there is an assassin!" Everyone in the hall heard this and hurriedly went out to watch. I saw a dozen guards in the southwest direction outside the hall surrounded by a group of men in black. Among the crowd, Ma Desheng was fighting hard, with blood on his body in many places, but Ying was extremely brave. A pair of big axes flew up and down, forcing the men in black to Don't dare to get close.
Upon seeing this, all the heroes in the hall grabbed their weapons and joined the battle group. Chen Xiaotian took the lead, using his Pai Shan Palm to unstoppable force, he was already in front of Ma Shengsheng in a few steps. Ma Desheng saw Chen Xiaotian rushing towards him and shouted: "Master, don't worry about me, they are trying to rob someone!"
Chen Xiaotian felt a shiver in his heart and looked into the distance. Sure enough, there were four men in black protecting the guy entering the treasure and escaping eastward. Just as he was about to chase after him, he heard a whistle, and more than a dozen men in black jumped out of the circle one after another, each taking their place. Suddenly, they formed a rhombus square formation and surrounded everyone.
When he saw it, Buhuo said loudly: "Everyone, be careful, this is the Tiangang Bagua array!" Sixteen men in black were seen working in pairs according to the eight directions of Qian, Kun, Xun, Zhen, Kan, Li, Gen and Dui. Stand still, and four other people stand on the outside in four directions: southeast, northwest and northwest. The leader from the east shouted, and the sixteen people inside immediately began to slowly move in a clockwise direction, while the four people outside moved in the opposite direction. The twenty people were seen making the encirclement smaller and smaller, and gradually approaching everyone.
