Mu Tao Ren really had to lower his profile and come forward to solve this matter, and he was the only one who was most suitable to come forward to block this matter for Wudang.
When the name "Ye Lingfeng" was not announced, Mu Taoren could certainly watch the fun, but after the name "Ye Lingfeng" was announced, if he continued to be a coward, there was no telling what kind of scandal would break out. For Mu Taoist, who cherishes his feathers very much and has greater ambitions, he must not let anything affect his reputation.
The way Ye Gucheng looked at Mu Taoren made Mu Taoren feel strange. There was no anger, no respect, and no eagerness to try. Instead, there was an expression of "It's really you."
Mu Taoist must appease Ye Gucheng immediately at this time. If he continues to chat for a while, if it is revealed that Ye Lingfeng has been expelled from the master by Mei Zhenren, he will not only be embarrassed, but also increase his suspicion. After all, I have always shown myself to be someone who plays in the world and is indifferent to fame and fortune.
Mu Daoren said: "It's hard to invite the Lord of Ye City, so today I will let the old Taoist be the host and entertain the Lord of the City on my behalf in Wudang."
After speaking, he waved his hand, indicating that he would go down the mountain with Ye Gucheng.
No matter how he wanted to solve it, it was impossible for Ye Gucheng to go up the mountain with his sword. It was impossible to drive Ye Gucheng away. Accompanying him and going down the mountain to entertain him was the fastest and most appropriate solution at present.
This is not the right time to be reasonable. Even if you are reasonable, it is only the public speaking that the public is right, and the mother-in-law saying that the mother-in-law is right.
At this time, it was the best choice to take the steps handed over by Mu Taoist. If there was no more steps, Ye Gucheng would have no choice but to get some Cangpai surgery. You can't jump into it knowing it's a trap. You really should offend Wudang completely because of something like this.
Mu Taoist, as the elder of Wudang, took the lead in toasting to Ye Gucheng. He raised his glass and said: "Lord Ye City, there are many people. Wudang will remember this friendship, and the old Taoist will do it first as a token of respect."
Ye Gucheng said: "Mu Taoist Master, you don't have to be so polite. I don't drink alcohol or tea, so I will replace the wine with water and accept Taoist Mu's apology."
Shi He, who was following Taoist Mu, was immediately dissatisfied. He just wanted to stop drinking. He even boasted about accepting "Mu Taoist Master's apology", which was too arrogant.
Mu Taoist was just stunned for a moment, then immediately smiled and said: "Ye Chengzhu is generous!"
Ye Gucheng said: "Taoist Mu is a senior expert, Wudang Sect is a famous sect, and Ye Gucheng is not an unreasonable person. Today's matter ends here, there is no need to mention it again."
Mu Taoist said yes again and again, and the smile on his face did not indicate that he was a top master in the world.
As expected, a person who achieves great things is able to bend and stretch, and does not feel ashamed when faced with the disdain of his younger generations. On the contrary, he appears to be free and easy and magnanimous. It also shows that Mu Taoist's city is so deep that he can achieve things that ordinary people cannot, and he should be able to accomplish things that ordinary people cannot.
Ye Gucheng still admired Mu Daoren very much. This kind of struggle of the Wudang sect is no different from that in the ordinary workplace. The difference may be that the consequences require life.
Of course, this kind of person is also more loyal to the sect. No matter how much he hates Wudang, he will not want to jump ship to another sect to compete for the leadership.
Furthermore, Ye Gucheng believes that it is not a bad thing for Wudang for Mu Tao Ren to be the head of Wudang. Astonishingly talented disciples like Mu Taoren are rare to find, and even great sects like Wudang cannot always have them. Not cherishing them is the source of disaster.
….
Seventeen years ago, Mu Taoren was forced to give up his position as master. Now his disciple Shi He, the most famous swordsman in Wudang, has also lost his position as master. For the arrogant Mu Taoren, it is a great shame and humiliation. Few people with the status of Mu Daoren can accept it calmly and withdraw from the game of power.
Ye Gucheng did not ask about Ye Lingfeng's expulsion from the school, as these were meaningless to him.
After just a few simple chats with Mu Taoist, the matter was revealed.
After Mu Taoist left with Shi He, Ye Gucheng asked Gongsun Lan: "Ye Lingfeng dared to come to my place to send invitations after being expelled from the master. I am ignorant. If I knew, wouldn't he be afraid that I would kill him?" "
Gongsun Landao: "Not many people know this news, and Wudang will not publicize the expulsion of disciples with great fanfare, especially the disciples of Mu Taoren who were expelled by Mei Zhenren. At the same time, Zhong Wugu, the Black Tiger, was also expelled from the door wall. The helpful Zhong Wugu.”
Ye Gucheng nodded. He didn't care about the disputes within the walls of Wudang Gate. Instead, he looked at Gongsun Lan's well-informed affairs in a different light.
Ye Gucheng asked: "How do you know this?"
Gongsun Landao: "I know a lot of information. I often disguise myself and go around asking for information. I am new to the world, I am alone, I have no friends, and my martial arts skills are not as good as yours. I always feel that there is no harm in knowing more. Maybe you’ll be able to save your life at some point.”
Ye Gucheng asked: "There won't be anyone around you, right?"
Gongsun Lan was silent for a moment, not wanting to expose too much about himself to Ye Gucheng.
While she was hesitating, Ye Gucheng said: "I don't want to ask about you, but if you have any difficulties and need help, especially with funds, I can help you."
Gongsun Lan was not happy, but became wary. There was no such thing as pie in the sky, so he had to pay for what he got, but he didn't know what Ye Gucheng wanted.
Ye Gucheng said: "I don't need money, and I don't need your force. I just need your news. When I want you to help me, can you help me."
Ye Gucheng didn't know what he wanted. In fact, his thirst for information was not strong. He was familiar with the original work and knew all the really important information. It was clear who was good and who was bad.
But he knew that Gongsun Lan's "Red Shoes" was actually a very powerful organization, which showed that Gongsun Lan was very capable. Her martial arts skills are not as good as his own, but when it comes to other things, Ye Gucheng really can't say that he is definitely better than Gongsun Lan. Being able to influence her appropriately is not a bad thing for him.
Gongsun Lan didn't dare to reject Ye Gucheng outright at this time. She didn't understand Ye Gucheng's temper very well. She only knew that his martial arts was much better than hers. What if she refused him and he killed her in anger? So even if she didn't want Ye Gucheng's help, she could only hold her nose and admit it for the time being.
Ye Gucheng said: "I have something I want you to do now."
Gongsun Lan was worried that this was coming too fast. Ye Gucheng didn't do anything yet and wanted to reach out for something.
Gongsun Lan asked bravely: "What's the matter?"
Ye Gucheng said: "Find Ye Lingfeng."
Ye Gucheng didn't remember Mu Taoren's conspiracy, so he didn't expose him, but it was unjustifiable for him to just let Ye Lingfeng go. To capture Ye Lingfeng, you don't necessarily have to kill him. At least you can let Mu Taoist come to you to beg him.
….
Gongsun Lan breathed a sigh of relief, but still said: "After Ye Lingfeng was expelled from Wudang, he rarely showed up and was difficult to find."
Ye Gucheng said: "Then look for it slowly, I'm not in a hurry."
Gongsun Lan nodded, feeling that Ye Gucheng was relatively easy to talk to.
Even when Gongsun Lan was with Ye Gucheng, he was still suspicious and always felt like there were eyes staring at him.
Ye Gucheng asked: "What?"
Gongsun Landao: "I don't know if I'm paranoid, but I always feel like someone is following me."
Ye Gucheng said: "It's not that you are suspicious, someone is indeed following you."
Gongsun Landao: "Have you noticed it too? But I can't find this person."
Ye Gucheng said: "You are quite alert. With this kind of vigilance, you can live longer."
Gongsun Landao: "Who is it?"
After saying that, he looked around.
Ye Gucheng said: "There are three people who have been following you since they came down from Wudang Mountain. In two days, they changed their appearance five times, and their disguise skills are not inferior to yours."
Gongsun Lan nodded. No wonder he didn't notice it. He was not surprised that Ye Gucheng found her.
Ye Gucheng seemed to be able to see through various appearances and see the true nature. Not to mention just a disguise, even if it was disfigured, it probably couldn't be hidden from him.
Gongsun Lan asked: "Could he be following you?"
Ye Gucheng said: "No, I don't think anyone would want to follow me."
Gongsun Lan said bitterly: "This Huo Xiu is really a ghost."
Ye Gucheng said: "If you want to pry into other people's privacy, it's normal for them to want to kill you."
Gongsun Landao: "This Huo Xiu must have a lot of shameful things, otherwise why be afraid?"
People inquired. "
After Ye Gucheng paused, Gongsun Lan reacted quickly and discovered that there was something wrong with Huo Xiu.
But how can a person with Huo Xiu's status not have secrets? The higher you go, the more secrets you will have, and the more you fear people will know. Spying on such people is a capital crime, so Huo Xiu's reaction is not too extreme.
Ye Gucheng would not comment on Huo Xiu in front of Gongsun Lan.
Gongsun Lan asked: "Then why don't they come to kill me?"
Ye Gucheng said: "Because I am here."
Gongsun Lan asked again: "Then how could you tolerate someone following you?"
Ye Gucheng said: "I'm waiting for Huo Xiu. They will definitely tell Huo Xiu that you are with me. It is Huo Xiu who needs to solve your problem. It is useless to kill these killers. Besides, they are not following me."
As expected, Huo Xiu appeared in front of Ye Gucheng soon.
Huo Xiu looked gloomy as he watched Gongsun Lan following Ye Gucheng.
Huo Xiu asked: "Did City Lord Ye send her to investigate me?"
Ye Gucheng shook his head: "No, I don't need to investigate you."
Huo Xiu was right. Ye Gucheng knew his biggest secret, so there was no need to investigate him anymore.
Huo Xiu asked, "Is she yours?"
This sentence was very ambiguous, and Gongsun Lan blushed.
Ye Gucheng shook his head again and said: "No, we can be regarded as partners. She has no malicious intentions, she is just easy to inquire about. If Boss Huo needs help in this regard, you can also ask her for help."
Huo Xiu shook his head and said, "I don't need her to ask me anything."
The boss of Tsing Yi House does not need help from outsiders.
Ye Gucheng said: "Then please, Boss Huo, let her go for my sake."
Huo Xiu squinted at Ye Gucheng and asked, "Are you begging me?"
As soon as Huo Xiu's words came out, the temperature instantly dropped by eight degrees.
Even if Huo Xiu's secret is known to Ye Gucheng, he is not someone who can be manipulated at will.
