After the Amitabha Incident, the reputation of Guanghua Temple in the outside world has plummeted. Believers in the Jianghuai area have denounced it. Many once loyal believers have listed Guanghua Temple as a enemy because their relatives and friends were killed in the Jade Buddha consecration ceremony. . The imperial court was also furious because of this incident. The leader of the Jinyi Guards between the Jianghuai River and the Huaihe River was actually murdered by a monk and an outsider, which was not bad. Emperor Yongle then personally issued an order, ordering Ji Gang to thoroughly investigate the case and severely punish those involved. The abbot of the temple, Master Dingyuan, committed suicide, and the temple supervisor Ding Cheng was imprisoned and sent to the capital. Many innocent monks suffered. For a time, there was a flash of swords and blood, and the grace and honor were no longer.
The prosperity of Sengta Temple Town is inseparable from Guanghua Temple. Now it has become deserted due to the sudden decline of Guanghua Temple. What's more, the wind is blowing at this time of year, and there are fewer and fewer pedestrians on the street.
Although Duzun Temple has always been in fierce competition with Guanghua Temple, now everyone is lamenting the fate of Guanghua Temple. Especially Hui Zhong, as a person involved, naturally knew that this had nothing to do with Guanghua Temple. Even Master Dingyuan saved so many lives despite the pressure of offending Huicheng at the critical moment. His death is really Injustice, however, the court does not seem to care about this. The court only cares about giving an explanation to the world in form. At the same time, it can use this matter to weaken the Buddhist power between Jianghuai and Huaihe. Maybe the next one will reach Duzun Mountain. What’s even more ridiculous is that Huicheng, the instigator of this incident, is not dead at all. He simply betrayed the imperial court and Jin Yiwei, and joined Xu Hao’s rebel forces with the face of a speculator. I believe Ji Gang is I will definitely not investigate. Even if I want to investigate, I will wait until the right time to investigate.
Thinking of this, Huizhong silently recited "Amitabha" again, quickened his pace and entered the town.
Chen Quanzhong doesn't care about this. They had cured Li Rufeng the day before yesterday, and Fang Lingyan also succeeded in convincing Li Rufeng that she had cured him this morning. At present, the Xinghan Army has formed an alliance with the Five Mountains Relics and Duzun Temple, and they don't believe they can't take down Xu Hao's black gauze monster. After taking down the secret in his hands, he can then use the poison to control the followers of the Five Sacred Mountains, and join forces to kill the three Huizhongs. In this way, the Tianwan Treasure will belong to the Xinghan Army. Yesterday, he had secretly ordered Zou Sansheng, the new chief escort of the Jianghuai Escort Bureau, to immediately send people to the Miao Village in western Hunan to find a way to cultivate the Lost Heart Gu, or to bring in someone who knows how to poison. In short, he felt that this thing would definitely be used in the future. arrive. In this way, we are one step closer to the dream of reviving the Han Dynasty.
Li Rufeng was also thinking about Gu. Thinking about the process of undoing the poison, he first took off his shirt and sat down cross-legged in front of Zou Zheguo. Zou Zheguo recited a spell and used his own blood to draw out the female worm. Then he drew a line on Li Rufeng's back with his own blood, drove the female worm to the blood line, and filled the tray with the female worm. The body fluids and his own blood were placed in front of Li Rufeng's mouth, and he chanted a spell in his mouth. As the mother worm climbed up, the voodoo worms also crawled out of the body along the blood line. They spit it into the plate and drank salt water to wash it off. , it’s really disgusting. I just wonder if junior sister Fang Lingyan also went through the same process. Zou Zhe had said that the old guy could do it with a layer of gauze, but could he have broken his promise? Or maybe Fang Lingyan didn't remove the poison at all? The more he thought about it, the less he dared to think about it, but he didn't know how to speak. The glances between her and his junior brother Feng Yanlang made him uneasy. Li Rufeng walked a few steps faster and silently recited "The Art of Sovereignty". This was a mental technique taught by Master Ji Bu to help him regain his vitality. He had been practicing it several times a day for the past few days, and he already felt that his body's air valves had been broken through. Quite a bit, no matter what I do, I feel more and more relaxed. I danced the Qianyuan Miaoqu Sword this morning, and I feel more comfortable and more powerful.
"Zhong Mingxuan is here." A leading waiter stopped in front of a restaurant and couldn't wait to lead everyone in to take a look. The pride of returning home was beyond words.
Feng Yanlang looked up and saw that this was a two-story restaurant at a crossroads, facing the street on both sides, and the signboard was still new. He remembered that when he passed by this place a few months ago, it was still a silk and satin shop. Now it is It was turned into a restaurant and probably opened not long ago.
Huizhong led Li Rufeng and others in, and under the guidance of the waiter, they went directly to the second floor.
The four sisters of the Ming family upstairs, Xiao Yuanfu and Zhang Tiehan had already seen the arrival of this group of people from the window, and hurriedly came out to greet them, saying: "This matter is confidential, so I don't dare to greet them from far away. I also ask the master to come with me." Gentlemen, please forgive me." He invited everyone to a private dining room in the back and ordered the waiters to hang up the business sign.
Among everyone, only Ming Siquan, Huizhong, Tie Lian and Jing Yunpeng had met each other, so Huizhong and Ming Siquan introduced them one by one. Huizhong played both sides and declared that the three companies were ready to cooperate. However, to Chen Quanzhong and others, he did not reveal his identity as a member of the Xinghan Army and only said that he was a righteous man in the Jianghu.
The four people on Xiao Yuanfu's side looked at the nine people who might become allies, and they didn't know whether they were happy or worried for a moment. To oppose Xu Hao, having more people is naturally more powerful, but with so many people coming from different camps, there is no guarantee that they will not have ulterior motives. If they cooperate, they have to be careful.
"Master, I see that many of you have come today, which is perfect for suppressing Xu Hao's stubbornness. I heard from the second girl that the master was entrusted by the eldest grandson of Emperor Tianwan to stop his younger brother Xu Hao. Damn you, I wonder if Master has any good ideas?" Xiao Yuanfu twisted his beard and asked.
Huizhong was not polite and started talking eloquently, "To be honest with you, this poor monk once received the kindness of Renshou Gong, the orphan of the former Emperor Yingtian Qiyun Xianwu, and wanted to repay it to the eldest son Xu Ying. Although the eldest son is of royal descent, he is content with The poor monk said: "The world is peaceful and peaceful, and people's minds are calm. Don't start a war rashly." Therefore, the poor monk is willing to bear the burden of being in front of the horse and behind the horse, and unites with the heroes to prevent the second son Xu Hao from acting against heaven. Last time in Guizhuang, he and The two girls had a brief exchange, and yesterday they were invited by a letter from the eldest lady, which led to today's meeting. The poor monk believes that the current situation is hard-won, and we must work together and work together."
"What the master said is absolutely true. Now that Xu Hao has obtained the secret keys of our three families, he may reveal the secret of the treasure at any time. No one can stop it at that time. The situation is very serious. After discussion with Uncle Xiao and Brother Zhang, I decided to I believe that all the heroes have the world in mind and will surely stand up to stop Thief Xu from causing trouble to the world, so I invite you all to come here to discuss important matters together," Ming Siyu said.
"I wonder if you can tell us the secrets you three keep so that we can discuss countermeasures." Zou Zheguo interjected.
Ming Siyu and the others looked troubled. Xiao Yuan replied: "I think today we must first form a charter on how to cooperate with so many people, otherwise it will be difficult to act in a unified manner."
Huizhong naturally understands Xiao Yuanfu's concerns. In his heart, he is actually not willing to cooperate with Chen Quanzhong. However, if he wants to deal with the Tianxiahui forces behind Ming Zongxia, he has to rely on them who are organized and powerful. But we can leave a hand on how to cooperate. Thinking of this, Huizhong said: "What Master said is not unreasonable. In that case, the poor monk suggested that each party should have one person to serve as an agency for the president and the overall situation. How about it?"
Chen Quanzhong was thinking about how to object, but he heard Zhang Tiehan say: "I don't agree. If so, wouldn't there be only one representative of the three companies that hold the core secrets?"
Fang Lingyan looked at the situation and it seemed that the cooperation was about to be shattered. Originally, this matter had nothing to do with him. It was just that Li Rufeng accidentally knew the secret of the "Golden Stone Sutra". Later, he accidentally sided with Master Huizhong. Now that he is involved and is planning for the world, he cannot give up halfway. . So he said: "Everyone, in my opinion, it is better for each of the Xiao, Zhang, and Ming families to form this organization together with Master Huizhong, my senior brother, and General Chen. In this way, all parties will be roughly balanced and will not be biased. ,how?"
"That's fine." Chen Quanzhong thought for a while and felt that this was fair. After all, Wuyue was still under his control.
Naturally, Xiao Yuanfu and others were surprised, so they all agreed.
Among these people, Master Huizhong was entrusted by Xu Ying to handle this matter, and he also urged the four-party talks, so he was naturally the best choice to lead the alliance. After the discussion, the others retreated to the outside, leaving Huizhong and the other six alone upstairs to exchange information and discuss the next step.
After discussion, the six people agreed that Zhang Tiezhuang's black iron sword should be a key to finding the treasure. Therefore, Zhang Tiezhuang must be recaptured first. Since Zhang Tiezhuang has been occupied by Xu Thief, they can take advantage of its current weak power to organize all the forces. Only by rushing together can we win.
