Li Feng joked: "Do you miss your sister? Or do you miss your brother?" Ru Dan blushed slightly and glanced at Liu Shui. Liu Shui didn't dare to look at her and quickly looked away.
Ru Dan said shyly: "My sister is making fun of me. If I only want my brother, will you be jealous?"
Li Feng smiled and said: "You girl, you are so sharp and sharp, you can beat someone with a rake."
Liu Shui said to Li Feng: "Why don't you take Ru Dan to the backyard to play with Furong and Peony. Wouldn't it be more lively if there are more girls together? Li Feng was right. He picked up Ru Dan and headed towards Go to the backyard.
A servant came in from the door and said to Liu Shui: "Master Liu, someone sent you a letter."
Liu Shui quickly asked: "Oh, who is he?"
"I don't know him. He handed over the letter and left." Liu Shui took the letter and waved the servant to go down. After opening it, it turned out to be an invitation letter from Xiangmen. The letter invited Liu Shui and Li Feng to visit Xiangmen tomorrow.
After Liu Shui read the letter, he hurriedly found Li Yan and showed him the letter. Li Yan thought for a long time and asked Liu Shuidao: "What do you think?"
Liu Shui said: "It's okay if I want to take a look. I guess the tax money was robbed and it has something to do with them."
Li Yan thought for a while and said, "Then let Feng'er go with you so that we can take care of each other." The two of them made a plan, and Li Yan asked Liu Shui to tell Li Feng later. Ru Dan and Li Feng played in the backyard for a while, then said goodbye and went back.
The next day, Liu Shui and Li Feng came to Xiangmen, but saw colorful flags flying inside and many visitors. As soon as I arrived at the gate, I heard the guard at the gate loudly announce: "Shaoxia Liu and Miss Li are here!"
After a while, Lu Yuan came out to greet them, cupped his hands and said, "Welcome Liu Shaoxia and Miss Li to our door."
Liu Shui returned the greeting and said, "Brother Lu said something serious. Your family invites you warmly. I dare not not come."
"Young hero, you're welcome, please come with me." Lu Yuan led Liu Shui to the courtyard. This time they did not receive the reception in the hall, but in the courtyard. It must be that the hall is too small. It seems that they have invited a lot of guests this time.
Liu Shui and the two entered the compound and saw that people from the Salt Gang, the Horse Gang, the Water Gang, the Shen Dao Faction, the Sanxiang Escort Bureau, and the Sishui Escort Bureau had all arrived, as well as those from Lushan Temple and Kaifu Temple who had not been here last time. arrive. Liu Shui thought to himself that they were unwilling to openly be enemies of Xiangmen, or they guessed that Tianxin Pavilion and Iron Sword Sect had suffered due to their absence last time, so they had to come this time. These people sat in two rows on the left and right, looking serious.
Liu Shui took a closer look and found that Zhang Dahu was also there. He was sitting in the second seat on the left row, with Zhang Erhu standing next to him. The main seat in the middle has always been empty. There is a large open space in front of the main seat. Lu Yuan asked Liu Shui and Liu Shui to take their seats at the end of the right row and then left. Shi Feng from the Sishui Escort Agency nodded when he saw Liu Shui. Apparently he didn't want others to know about their relationship.
"Tan Governor Shi Xu and Miss Xu are here!" The shouts started again, and everyone was shocked. Unexpectedly, even people from the government in Xiangmen were invited. After a while, Lu Yuan led Xu Qiong to sit in the first seat on the left row. Hu Hai and Lin Zhen stood on both sides, and Ru Dan sat on the chair behind Xu Qiong. Ru Dan saw Liu Shui and Li Feng from a distance, smiled and nodded, and Liu Shui nodded in greeting.
"Tanzhou Commander Lu has arrived!" Another shout came from outside. Now everyone was even more surprised. Lu Yuan led Mr. Lu to sit in the first seat on the right row. Everyone stood up and saluted the prefect. Mr. Lu waved his hand, looking very arrogant. Behind him were two muscular men, who seemed to be his personal bodyguards.
At this time, there was a sudden roar of gongs and drums, and the sound of firecrackers. Amidst the commotion, Wang Xiang, the master of the Xiangmen Gate, walked to the open space in front of the main seat, accompanied by the elders on his left and right. With a wave of his right hand, the gongs and drums suddenly stopped and the sound of firecrackers stopped.
Wang Xiang bowed his hands and saluted the people sitting on both sides, and said: "Thank you all for coming, thank you for coming. Thank you for coming. Today our sect has something special, and I want you to be a witness. Our sect, the Salt Gang, and the Boat Gang , Sanxiang Escort Bureau discussed together and decided to merge the four factions into one, named Quanxiang Clan. Today is the happy day for the establishment of Quanxiang Clan."
Everyone was greatly surprised. As a result, Tanzhou was naturally the most powerful in the entire Xiangmen. They actually took Quanxiangmen as their name, which shows how big their hearts are.
Zhang Dahu said: "Master Wang, congratulations." As soon as he started, everyone else congratulated him.
Wang Xiang thanked him first, and then said: "Everyone has misunderstood. After being recommended by the four sects, I am just the deputy sect leader of the Quanxiang sect, and the sect leader is someone else."
Everyone asked: "Who is your sect leader?" At this time, the leader of the Water Gang, the leader of the Salt Gang, and the head of the Sanxiang Escort Bureau stood up together, and Wang Jiang, the younger brother of Wang Xiang, the deputy sect leader of the Xiangmen, came to Wang Xianghe. Next to the two elders.
I saw these seven people bowing together, and then using their inner strength to shout: "Respectfully greet the master!"
The seven people had strong internal energy and shouted in unison. The sound was deafening, and those with insufficient skills were shaken to the point of dizziness.
As soon as the seven people's voices fell, they heard a sweet shout: "The master of the door is here!" It was the voices of four girls, soft and sweet.
At the same time, four young and beautiful girls flew down from the roof and landed gently on the ground without making any sound. Their light skills are so good that they are rare in the world. The four girls were all dressed in green and carrying long swords. They stood on both sides after landing.
Then, from the roof, a stunningly beautiful young girl slowly floated down. She was dressed in bright red clothes and trousers, with long flowing hair. She had a golden shawl draped over her shoulders and in her hands, flying in the wind, like a fairy descending to earth. She landed gently among the four girls, and her eyes were like apricots, her face was like a silver plate, she was as white as snow, and she was extremely beautiful. After landing, he slowly walked to the middle and stood proudly.
All the people in Xiangmen bowed and saluted, and shouted in unison: "Greetings to the master."
When Liu Shui saw it, he couldn't help but be shocked. He didn't expect that the head of Quanxiang Clan was actually a young girl. Liu Shui saw that the girl had excellent light skills and was not inferior to him. He thought to himself that it was no wonder that Xiangmen was so arrogant. It seemed that there were many masters among them.
Li Feng saw Liu Shui's expression was different and hurriedly asked softly: "Brother Liu, what happened?"
Liu Shui said: "This woman seems to have strong martial arts skills, so we must be careful. I will tell you in detail when we get back!" Li Feng saw that his face was serious and did not look like he was joking, so he nodded in agreement.
The girl glanced around, and then said slowly: "Brothers and sisters, no courtesy." With a raised hand, everyone stood up. The girl clasped her fists in her hands, saluted the two rows of guests, and said: "Thank you all for taking the time to come, and thank you for your support. The little girl Xiao Xianglan has been favored by the four seniors and promoted to the leader of the entire Xiangmen Gate. I also ask for your support and support." .”
Everyone stood up quickly to greet him and said, "Congratulations, Master."
Xianglan waved her hand and said, "Thank you, please take a seat." After saying that, she walked to the main seat and turned around to sit down. Four girls in green stood behind her. From a distance, it looks like the shady green leaves are protecting the bright red flowers.
After Xianglan sat down, she said: "Our sect was established today, with senior Wang Xiang as the deputy sect leader. The elders are still the two elders on the left and right. The original Xiangmen was changed to Xiangtang, the Shui Gang was changed to Shuitang, and the Salt Gang was changed to Yantang , Sanxiang Escort Bureau was changed to Sanxiang Hall. Wang Jiang, Qiu Ze, Cheng Fang, and Hu Yi are the four guardians of the sect and concurrently serve as the heads of the four halls. In the future, when each hall meets talents with great achievements, they will take over as hall leaders. .”
The seven people said in unison: "Thank you, Master, for your trust. We will do our best to make our sect more prosperous."
Xianglan then said to everyone: "Recently, there have been frequent changes in the world. Tianxin Pavilion and Iron Sword Sect were tragically destroyed. The Sishui Escort Bureau also suffered heavy losses, and Mr. Shi's head escort was unfortunately killed. We should stick together in order to protect ourselves, everyone. The flames of the firewood are high enough to resist any evil attack. If any sect wishes to join our Xiangmen in the future and work together to serve the world, our sect welcomes them."
Zhang Dalong then said: "Master Xiao is right. The princess has important matters and has no time to come, so I have sent a message here. I hope your family can abide by the laws of the court and assist the government in maintaining peace."
Xianglan immediately said: "Of course, Sir Zhang, don't worry, please tell the princess. I will go to see the princess in person someday and listen to the teachings."
After Xianglan finished speaking, she said to Mr. Lu: "Mr. Lu, Mr. Xu, we would like to buy the land and business left by the former Tianxin Pavilion Master and the Iron Sword Sect at double the price. I don't know if the two adults agree. "
Mr. Lu quickly said: "If your family is willing to pay such a high price, there is no problem. From now on, taxes must be paid on time. Don't neglect or delay."
"In this case, thank you Sir for your support. We will act in accordance with the law." When everyone heard that Quanxiangmen had annexed the territory and business of the Tianxin Pavilion Master and the Iron Sword Sect. Such strength is no longer competitive in Tanzhou. It seems that it is no match for Master Lu. Already united, the other factions can't help but feel secretly panicked.
Xianglan said to everyone again: "In view of the recent undercurrents in Tanzhou's rivers and lakes, various factions are facing danger. The juniors suggested calling together martial arts comrades and heroes in the rivers and lakes to form a martial arts alliance, select an alliance leader, and lead everyone to fight against evil ways and maintain the integrity of the rivers and lakes. I don't know, seniors What do you think of the leader?"
Xianglan waited for a while, but when no one answered, she smiled and asked Zen Master Wuyu, the abbot of Lushan Temple: "Master Wuyu, what do you think? Lushan Temple is the Taishan Beidou of Tanzhou Wulin. It must be good for the benefit of the people in the world. You won’t refuse, right? Let’s take part in this great event!”
Xianglan's words were high-sounding and impeccable. Wuyu had no words to refute for a moment, so he said: "Lushan Temple is a place of Buddhism. As a monk, I should not be involved in worldly affairs. Of course, I am happy to see the success of punishing evil and promoting good." Other sects Seeing that Lushan Temple agreed with her proposal, she naturally had no choice but to agree.
Xianglan asked: "Then shall we elect the leader of the alliance today?" Obviously she wanted to strike while the iron was hot and win the position of leader of the Tanzhou Wulin Alliance in one fell swoop.
At this time, Zhang Dalong intervened and said: "Master Xiao, your sect was just established today. I think we should wait until later."
Xu Qiong said: "Although Clan Leader Xiao's proposal is good, the matter of nominating the alliance leader should be decided at another time."
Xianglan didn't take it seriously and said cheerfully: "Then we will gather at the top of Yuelu Mountain during the Dragon Boat Festival to celebrate the establishment of the Wulin Alliance and the election of the alliance leader."
