Ma Chu took a closer look and saw a lot of people standing inside. On one side were monks from the Iron Buddha Temple, and on the other side were people wearing blue clothes, about twenty or so people. Someone was saying: "We have said that we want to buy the courtyard behind your Iron Buddha Temple, and it's not like we won't give you money, so why are we pushing back?"
"Donor, aren't you forcing things on others? You want a room, and there is a lot of open space outside. You can just build it yourself. The temple is so big, and you can barely make it by yourself. How can you sell the room? Amitabha!"
Ma Chu listened for a while and got the general idea. They actually want to forcefully purchase a temple, which is really unheard of.
"Do you agree or not? I am too lazy to listen to your nonsense. In one sentence, I agree or I don't agree, otherwise we will be rude." I saw the person standing among the three people in front shouting out. It seemed that he was in this group. Head of people.
"Amitabha, donor Zhang, I really can't agree." Abbot Wu Ming of Tiefo Temple said.
"Brothers, they don't give us Daheng Gang face, so we are going to destroy their ruined temple." "Yes." More than 20 people answered in unison, showing their swords at the same time, which also increased their momentum. None of the monks in Tiefo Temple practiced martial arts, so they were all frightened for a moment.
A man next to the man surnamed Zhang raised his knife and was about to chop at the Buddha case. Seeing the emergency, Ma Chu shouted: "Stop." Then he walked to the front with Fenghuang. The man holding the knife was stunned for a moment. When he put the knife away, he saw two young men dressed in hunter attire. Just now, Ma Chudun drank and used his inner strength, and his voice was even louder and deafening in the hall.
The man named Zhang was also shocked for a moment. He looked at the two people in front of him and asked: "Who are you? Why are you shouting?" "You have seen it, we are the ones who specialize in hunting wolves in the mountains. Hunter of tigers and leopards." "Then go hunt your prey. Why are you running in here? There are no wolves, tigers and leopards here!" The man surnamed Zhang said this. He was already afraid of Ma Chu. The shout just now made him I can't do that at all, so I can't help but be careful when I speak.
Ma Chu said: "There are no wolves, tigers or leopards here, but there is prey. This prey seems to be more vicious than tigers and leopards."
"It seems that you want to go into troubled waters?" said the man surnamed Zhang. He understood what Ma Chu was referring to, but pretended not to hear it.
"Yes, I can't let you destroy this beautiful temple."
"Just you two boys? Wang Hai, go and destroy him." The man surnamed Zhang said to the person on the left. Then Wang Hai came over with a big sword in his hand. Ma Chu was about to greet him when Fenghuang said, "Brother, let me do this." Ma Chu nodded, knowing that Fenghuang wanted to stretch his muscles.
Fenghuang stepped forward and stood opposite Wang Hai. Wang Hai was a rough man and immediately struck with his sword. Fenghuang swerved to avoid it and used the "Mountain Pushing Palm" of the Mountain Splitting Stone Fist to hit Wang Hai. The Mountain Pushing Palm is very powerful and is driven by internal force. It is one of the mountain-splitting and rock-breaking fists. If the internal force is high, even a first-rate master will find it difficult to carry it head-on. Although Phoenix's internal strength is now limited, it is still more than enough to deal with Wang Hai. Phoenix pushed with his left palm and hit Wang Hai's right shoulder. With the force of his palm, Wang Hai was pushed back a few steps and fell to the ground.
Everyone on the other side changed their colors. Wang Hai was considered the best among them. Unexpectedly, he was seduced with just one move. Suddenly another person snatched out and swung his stick towards Phoenix, who jumped out of the way. This man's kung fu was higher than Wang Hai's, so he started fighting with Phoenix. After a few moves, Phoenix knew that his internal strength was mediocre. When he hit him with a stick, he moved his right arm, grabbed the stick with his backhand, and used his left fist to hit the opponent's chest with a "rock-breaking punch". The man didn't expect Phoenix to dare to take a blow with force. He was so startled that he had no time to react and was hit by a gravel punch. He staggered a few steps and fell to the ground.
The man surnamed Zhang was shocked. He was the best among the people who used sticks, but he was defeated after a few moves. The person who came was definitely not a hunter. He thought that someone from a big sect was coming to disrupt the situation. "Little baby, two more words, which sect do you belong to?" The man surnamed Zhang said to Ma Chu. He saw that Ma Chu was the stronger of the two, so he wanted to find out where Ma Chu and the others came from.
At this time, Ma Chu thought to himself, even if we drive them away today, there is no guarantee that they will stop here. I might as well fabricate a sect in Hengshan so that they will not dare to come again. Thinking of this, Ma Chu said: "I don't want to tell you tyrannical and rude people, but if I don't tell you, it seems that I am afraid that you will seek revenge in the future. Listen up, we are the Nanyue Sword Sect."
"Nanyue Sword Sect? How come you've never heard of it?" said the man named Zhang. "I, Zhang Shanbao, have nothing against you, so why are you going against us? At this time, Zhang Fu also glanced at Ma Chu in confusion. "Since we are the Nanyue Sword Sect, you come to Nanyue to act wild and you are not going to get along with us. I think you should retreat from Hengshan immediately and stop making trouble. Ma Chu said to Zhang Shanbao. "You just said a few words to let us go down the mountain. You guys look down on our Daheng Gang too much." "I don't care about your Da Heng Gang or Xiao Heng Gang." Now that you are their leader, what do you want to do? If you want to win with more, our brothers and sisters will be ruthless. Just now, my junior brother had better show mercy, otherwise the two of them would be dead or injured. "Ma Chu deliberately said harsh words to calm them down.
Zhang Shanbao thought that if everyone swarmed up, there would be no certainty. His junior brothers have such skills, so he is not more difficult to deal with, but if he wants to go down the mountain, then he should not hang around in the world. Just try your luck. "That's it, you and I will fight each other and we'll see who's who. If you win, we'll leave. If you lose, you'll leave." "Okay, it's a deal."
After speaking, the two came to the center of the hall. Ma Chu said to Fenghuang: "You step back and let me move around." Fenghuang nodded and stepped back. Ma Chu arched his head towards Zhang Shanbao, and Zhang Shanbao came towards him with a punch. Judging from Ma Chu's punches, we can tell that his kungfu is pretty good, but his internal strength is not as good as his own, and he can just stand up to his opponent. Ma Chu did not dodge or evade, used his strength to move his arms, and hit the fist with a gravel fist. Although both are "rock-breaking punches", Ma Chu's skills are stronger than Zhang Fu's, and his punches are even more powerful. There was a "pop" sound, and the two fists separated as soon as they touched each other. Zhang Shanbao yelled: "Ah!" He took ten steps back before he stopped. His right arm drooped and was dislocated, with a look of pain on his face. The man next to him immediately stepped forward to connect his arm.
Zhang Shanbao had nothing to say at this time. He attacked with all his strength first, and Ma Chu directly resisted. There was no trickery at all. The opponent's skills were much better than his own. If the fight continued, these people would probably be blamed here. "Zhang admits defeat, let's wait and see." Zhang Shanbao endured the pain in his arms and fists and said a word, and led the people out of the temple in embarrassment and went down the mountain.
Master Wuming, the abbot, put his palms together and said to Ma Chu: "Amitabha, thank you two benefactors for rescuing the siege." Ma Chu and Ma Chu bowed in return: "Master, please don't be polite. Ma Chu has taken care of you a lot when he was young. This is mine. It's my job." After Ma Chu finished speaking, he was afraid that Lin Yue and the others would be worried, so he said goodbye and returned.
After arriving home, I met two elders and reported their passing in detail. Lin Yue didn't say anything and asked them to rest. Two days later, Li Wen returned to Tanzhou with Phoenix.
A few days later, Lin Yue asked Ma Chu to go to Luoyang to find Feiyun. He told Ma Chu that Feiyun was hiring people now and asked him to help. He wants to stay in Nanyue and take care of Lanlan and Fangfang.
Ma Chu naturally had no objection and followed Lin Yue's request to leave home and walk quickly. He just wanted to use this to resolve his nostalgia for home. After all, he was traveling alone. It was different from selling game at the foot of the mountain. After all, he couldn't let go.
After a while, when he arrived at the place where he met Lanlan and Fangfang last time, he stopped involuntarily. Then he turned to the old man's grave and said, "Given your personality, I shouldn't have interfered with your business, but your two maids have now become my junior sisters. You act with such bad intentions, but they are so kind and lovely. I really want to I wonder if they are a family. I'd better show my filial piety on their behalf, and don't worry, I will take good care of them." After saying that, he added soil to the grave, bowed and left.
After more than ten days of long journey, Ma Chu finally arrived at Li's house in the evening. This was Lin Yue's request, asking him to stay at Li's house for a while before going to Luoyang.
After Ma Chu paid his respects, Li Wen said: "Chu'er, I thought you didn't arrive so soon. Have you reached the sixth level of inner strength and mental skills?" "Grandpa Li, you have reached it. How is your situation now?" Li Wen said: " We’re already here, don’t be anxious, settle down and rest today, and let Phoenix take you to familiarize yourself with Tanzhou tomorrow, and then we’ll go into details.”
While he was talking, Phoenix came in from outside the door. "Hey, you hunter, did you go to the wrong place? How did you end up in the city? There are no wolves or wild beasts here!" "But there are foxes here. We also need to hunt them!" "Oh, you dare to turn around and scold Senior Sister, look. I won't punish you." After Phoenix finished speaking, he slapped him with his palm.
Ma Chu stepped aside and said, "Sister, I was joking with you. Tianlong has grown much taller." Ma Chu quickly changed the subject and said to the boy who came in with Phoenix. Tianlong came over to greet Ma Chu and said, "Hello, handsome guy. We haven't seen each other for almost a year. Are they okay?" "They're all okay. It's just that there are two more junior sisters. You haven't met them yet." "Fenghuang, You take Chu'er to wash up, find suitable clothes to change into, and then take him to meet your parents." "Yes, grandpa, Chu'er is coming with me." Fenghuang said with a smile.
After Ma Chu finished changing his clothes, he came out and saw Fenghuang waiting in the courtyard. He called out, "Sister, you can go." Fenghuang turned around and saw Ma Chu wearing new clothes. He felt moved and said, "Senior Sister, you can go." Unexpectedly, you changed your clothes and you still look very..." She wanted to say that you still look very good, but she was too shy to say it. She blushed and turned to whisper: "Come with me." After that, she hurriedly walked towards Go forward. Ma Chu was puzzled. He didn't know why this girl who was not afraid of the sky or the earth seemed to have changed. He muttered in his heart and hurriedly followed her.
Fenghuang took Ma Chu into a side hall, where a middle-aged couple was sitting. "Father, mother" Phoenix called. Ma Chu hurried over and kowtowed: "Nephew, meet your uncle and aunt." The middle-aged man is Li Xing, Phoenix's father, and the woman is Mrs. Li, Phoenix's mother. Li Xing quickly stood up and helped him up. "My family, there's no need to be polite. Besides, I should give you a courtesy."
