In the hundreds of years of history of the Beggar Gang, there has never been a gang leader who worked as hard as Xiao Feng. On the day when Xiao Feng overcame three major problems, made seven major achievements, and finally took over the position of leader of the Beggar Clan, the general helm of the Beggar Clan was filled with huge crowds of people on Junshan Mountain, and the occasion was unprecedented. Not to mention the people of the Beggar Clan, the entire world was convinced of Xiao Feng's succession as the leader of the Beggar Clan. At that time, the reputation of "Beiqiao Peak" in the Central Plains martial arts world was unparalleled.
However, in just a few short years, Xiao Feng suddenly suffered a change and was expelled from the gang. After that, he was wronged and reviled by the martial arts. It was not until the Goshiro Mountain Heroes Conference that Xiao Yuanshan and Murong Bo suddenly appeared, and the thrilling incident of the past was revealed. The truth of the past.
Thirty years have passed in a blink of an eye, and many grievances and hatreds have been buried in the dust. Xiao Feng and his son reunited unexpectedly, and he was able to get rid of the endless infamy of killing his adoptive father, his adoptive mother, and his mentor. However, the Jianghu heroes said, "Father's debt is repaid by his son, and it is only natural law." The countless injustices suffered by Xiao Feng were calmly blown away by the wind. However, his father and the great enemy who had not forgotten and hated him to the bone for thirty years were in the nameless old monk. Under the enlightenment, we all saw through the world of mortals, escaped into Buddhism, and were liberated.
At that time, there were still many relatives, friends and old friends of those who had died under Xiao Yuanshan's hand, and they still hated the Xiao family and his son. Although Xiao Feng was able to clear up his injustice, his reputation was greatly damaged. Until the news that Xiao Feng would rather die than obey the Liao Emperor's will and led his army to invade the Song Dynasty in the south reached the Central Plains martial arts world. The invincible aura of the former hero and chivalry instantly possessed him again. After that, all the heroes gathered in the capital of Liao Kingdom to rescue Xiao Daxia, who was trapped in a cage. Although someone outside Yanmen Pass shamelessly stole the limelight of his sworn brother, he used force to coerce the Yeluhong Ji Alliance and vowed not to send a single soldier to invade the south in their lifetime. In one step, he achieved an unparalleled feat, but most of the reason was because he was afraid that if Xiao Feng took action himself, he would feel shameless and kill himself with an arrow.
Xiao Feng thought he was a Khitan rebel, and was disheartened for a moment. Despite his tearful begging from his former comrades and Huang Rong's sincere persuasion in person, he still did not want to be reinstated as the leader of the Beggar Clan, so he politely refused and left alone, heading to the Jurchen tribe in Changbai Mountain and the Wanyan and Aguda went hunting and drinking together, and lived in isolation.
Long Xiaobao knew that his eldest brother was actually worried that Yelu Hongji would be embarrassed and angry at the Jurchen clan, so he probably wanted to help him. How could this guy let his sworn brother be in a dangerous situation? Therefore, outside Yanmen Pass, an elite group was hidden in the mountains at the junction of Song and Liao. They secretly sent elite believers to sneak into Nanjing and pay close attention to the movements of the Liao emperor. Once it was discovered that Yelu Hongji had sent troops to exterminate the Jurchens, If you know your intention, you can send a message quickly, and the ambush troops will rush to the rescue.
Not only that, Long Xiaobao has already made up his mind. If the Khitans and Jurchens start a war, this guy will definitely plant a few "life and death talismans" on Yelu Hongji at all costs, and once again coerce the Liao Emperor to withdraw his troops. It will make him unable to live in peace for the rest of his life.
A gentleman takes revenge, and it is never too late in ten years - I take revenge, from morning to night!
The brothers outside Yanmen Pass had only been apart for more than a month, and Xiaobao had already received news that the Liao army was gathering to wipe out the Jurchens. However, before Yelu Hongji could go on a personal expedition, he was filled with rage, but he suddenly received news that the Jurchens had moved north again and had penetrated deeper into the country. News about the vast snowfields and forests, retreating to the primitive wilderness deep in the Changbai Mountains. As a result, the Liao soldiers, not to mention extermination, even if they want to find traces of the Jurchens, it is extremely difficult - the snow in the depths of Changbai Mountain never melts all year round, it is extremely cold, there is no way, no one can trace it, except for the world. How else in the world can the Jurchens, who have lived for hundreds of years and are so powerful, survive in such a near-desperate place?
Yelu Hongji had no way to vent his anger and almost suffered internal injuries, so he had no choice but to withdraw his troops. On the other hand, Xiao Feng's martial arts skills are unparalleled and his body is strong. He can go to any dangerous and harsh places. From now on, he is as free as he is in the world. The life of the Jurchen tribe was already very difficult, and this time they were forced to migrate, making their situation even worse. Xiao Feng felt that it was for his own sake, so he hunted around in the wild snowy mountains every other month, which lasted for at least two months and sometimes for as long as three months. For half a year, with his skill, no tiger, leopard, wolf, bear, or any bird or beast could escape his iron palms, so he returned home with a full load time after time. Most of the Jurchens are cruel and tough, and only the truly brave can gain their sincere respect. Therefore, no one in the clan, young or old, has any suspicion that Xiao Feng is a Khitan, and everyone respects him very much.
When he was free, Xiao Feng asked Wanyan Aguda to select the strongest warriors in the clan and teach him some martial arts. The Jurchens are extremely fierce, and they are all capable of fighting. However, they cannot practice internal skills, but they are very good at practicing various hard external skills and get twice the result with half the effort. Moreover, the tribe has lived in a dangerous and cold land for generations and basically relies on hunting for a living. Although life is extremely difficult, surviving in such a harsh environment is of great benefit to strengthening the body and improving martial arts. Xiao Feng was originally one of the world's top masters, the god of war in martial arts. However, after several years of this, not only did many Jurchen men become more agile than before, but his own martial arts also improved greatly and became even better than before.
Until today, Xiao Feng has gone through countless hardships and twists and turns, and has been admired and looked up to by everyone.??I was once homeless in the world, but my reputation as a chivalrous person spread all over the world!
Who in the world can be dissatisfied? Who dares to be disrespectful? His sudden appearance in Emei shocked the heroes!
That night, Xiaobao and Xiao Feng had a drink at the Beggar Clan's headquarters, and naturally Linghu Chong, who loved drinking as much as he drank, was indispensable. The brothers hadn't seen each other for many days, so they naturally wanted to drink as much as they could. Unexpectedly, Xiao Feng's drinking capacity was even more terrifying. First, a group of beggars took turns coming forward to propose a toast, and within an hour many of them were drunk. Following Yang Xiao, Fan Yao and other Ming Cult heroes taking turns in the battle, Yu Lianzhou and Zhang Songxi also came over to offer Xiao Feng a few bowls. As a result, everyone worked hard for half the night. Although Xiao Feng was eighty percent drunk, everyone present except Xiao Bao could barely hold on. The rest were all drunk, their eyes were crooked, their steps were staggering, and they even fell asleep, still talking nonsense in their dreams. .
The next day, we slept until three o'clock in the morning. Everyone woke up one after another. The other gangs had already gone up the mountain. Everyone hurriedly washed their faces and changed clothes. After a quick meal, they rushed to Emei Golden Summit. The Mingjiao, the Beggar Clan, and the Hengshan Sect set out together, passing through Lianghekou, Bailong Cave, Qingyin Pavilion, Xixiang Pond, Jiulao Cave, Changshou Rock, and Sheshen Cliff to the Jieyin Hall at the foot of the Golden Summit. However, they saw that the heroes from all walks of life had already arrived. All gathered here.
The main purpose of this gathering of heroes was to pay homage to Master Miejie, so there were very few people from various gangs and sects accompanying them - just like the Songshan Shaolin Temple, except for Abbot Xuanci who came in person, there were only four people, Xuan Sheng, Xuan Ye, Xuan Sha and Xuan Kui. The master and the Eighteen Arhats accompanied him. The road to Southern Shaolin is far away, and Abbot Kong Wen heard that he was very old and had never been there in person. The two masters Kongzhi and Kongxing came here with only a few disciples of the Yuanzi generation, which was more simple.
The Kunlun and Kongtong sects were also so light and simple, and the "Five Mountains Sword Sect", in addition to Linghu Chong, the general leader, brought seven senior female nuns from the Hengshan sect, and more than a dozen junior female disciples accompanied them to pay homage. , the other four mountains only sent their disciples to watch the ceremony - since Zuo Lengchan, Yue Buqun, and Tianmen Taoist priests passed away one after another, the prestige of Songshan, Huashan, and Taishan sects has been greatly reduced, and none of their disciples are particularly outstanding. The young talents can be used. Mr. Mo Da, the leader of Nanyue Hengshan, "Xiaoxiang Yeyu" is still alive, but the Hengshan sect has always kept a low profile, and Mr. Mo Da has never liked to appear in public, and only sends his eldest disciple to act as a representative.
Therefore, the Wuyue Sword Sect, which was at its peak in the past and was unparalleled in the limelight, now seems to be withering in talent.
The Beggar Clan has the largest number of people coming, and the Ming Cult also has nearly a hundred people. However, both families are very polite. Today, only their respective leaders went up the mountain. The followers of the Ordinary Clan who accompanied them all stayed in the Huayan Peak and Tianchi Peak areas halfway up the mountain. waiting.
Xiao Feng and Xiaobao walked side by side. When heroes from all walks of life saw them, they took the initiative to get out of the way. As long as they were not enemies, Xiaobao would always have a cheerful face and a smile on everyone he saw, and Xiao Feng was not a arrogant person either. The two brothers held their fists and saluted, laughing and joking all the way. As soon as they arrived in front of the reception hall, the sound of bells came from the golden dome. But after hearing the ringing of the bell, the door in the reception hall slowly opened, and two rows of Emei female disciples filed out. No matter whether they were monks or laymen, they were all dressed in black and looked extremely solemn. The heroes immediately put away their smiling faces and stood silently. The first ones they saw were two laywomen, Ding Minjun and Bei Jinyi, who had interacted with Xiaobao in the "Butterfly Valley" in the past.
When Master Miejie passed away suddenly, Ji Xiaofu naturally learned the news. Although Master Miejie wanted to execute her to death because of Yang Xiao, and even punished the young Yang Buhui, Ji Xiaofu never really hated her master. When she learned that her master had died, she burst into tears. She wanted to go to Mount Emei at all costs to kowtow to say goodbye to Master Miejie, but Yang Xiao knew that if the couple went together, it would probably cause misunderstandings among the Emei sect and lead to unnecessary trouble. contradiction. Yang Xiao persuaded her for a long time. Ji Xiaofu was also a smart woman with general knowledge, so she endured her grief, burned incense and worshiped from afar, and no longer insisted on going to pay homage to her mentor in person.
¡°At first, Ding Minjun turned against Ji Xiaofu because of his jealousy, but Bei Jinyi had a close personal relationship with Ji Xiaofu and they were like sisters. At this moment, the two girls looked at their noses and ears, as if turning a blind eye to Xiaobao, Yang Xiao and others. They bowed to everyone. Bei Jinyi said: "The new leader of our sect invites you all to come to the Golden Summit at noon to pay homage to our family." Master. Today, many martial arts seniors and heroes from all walks of life have come from afar. From the headmaster down, we are all grateful and would like to express our deepest gratitude." After saying this, dozens of female disciples bowed deeply to the heroes.
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????This way, even those who had a quarrel with the Emei sect at this time responded sincerely. Someone shouted: "Master Jue, who valued martial arts more than anyone else, unfortunately passed away. I'm here to kowtow to him. It's only right. You're welcome, Heroine Bei!"
"What this dear friend said is absolutely true! When the master was alive, he had a sword in his hand to wipe out the demons and uphold justice. Who is disrespectful? It is the duty of fellow martial arts practitioners to come to see him off."
Many people spoke one after another, all speaking words of admiration and praise. It took a while before they gradually subsided. Bei Jinyi said: "The Emei Sect will keep all of your kindness in mind. But today we have to do something for you first.The master saw him off, and the new head of our sect had something to say - the master liked peace and quiet the most during her lifetime, but she might not like it if there were too many people, so she invited the heads and leaders of each gang to go up the mountain to worship, and the rest of you will stay here for the time being. Rest in the reception hall until the funeral is over, and then invite you all to go up the mountain to watch the succession ceremony of the new head. We have no intention of being disrespectful, and we ask for your forgiveness. "
After the heroes heard this, although most of them were slightly disappointed because they could not go to the Golden Summit to worship, the request of the Emei Sect was understandable. Even though there are still a few people who are dissatisfied, seeing that even the Eighteen Arhats of Shaolin Temple have stayed, their unhappiness disappears immediately - the Eighteen Arhats of Shaolin Temple are so famous that most of the leaders of Jianghu gangs are not as good as them. They don't rely on their status to go up the mountain. Those cliffs What else can a self-exalted person be dissatisfied with?
As a result, those who are qualified to go to Emei's Golden Summit to worship Master Miu are all heads of various sects, leaders of various gangs, and first-class masters who are famous in the world - as for Xiao Feng, he alone is enough to be on an equal footing with each sect. Even too much is not enough.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Out of the North and South Shaolin and Wudang Sects, followed by the Mingjiao Beggar Clan, everyone walked up slowly with solemn expressions. When they reached the top of the peak, they saw Emei nuns waiting for them. This time, Master Jingxuan, the top disciple of Master Jue, was in the lead this time. Xiaobao glanced over, and sure enough, Zhou Zhiruo¡¯s elegant figure was nowhere to be seen. He thought to himself that even if this girl showed off her talents in Southern Shaolin and intimidated the heroes, she would not reach Double Ten. A young girl has taken over the position of head of a famous martial arts sect. It is no wonder that there are different opinions and criticisms in the world.
There are more than ten temples on the Golden Summit of Emei. Although they are far less magnificent than Shaolin Temple and Tianlong Temple, they are also extraordinary. There is a golden plaque hanging above the main hall, with four golden characters written on it - Buddha's light shines everywhere. Under the sunlight at noon, it becomes even more dazzling. However, those who set foot here now are all well-known figures in the martial arts world. They all know that the place where Master Miejie taught Qing cultivation during his lifetime was the Ten Thousand Buddhas Summit, the highest peak of Mount Emei. It is said that there is only one small temple there, which is quiet, quiet and simple. Most of the palaces on top of the golden dome are used to receive foreign guests, and are also the residences of lower-level servant disciples and lay disciples. On weekdays, all Emei nuns gather here only when some grand Buddhist gathering is held.
Everyone entered the main hall and finished worshiping the golden body of Buddha. Jingxuan and other nuns of the Jing generation led everyone to the back of the hall. After leaving the main hall, there is an open space. Not far ahead stands a simple seven-story stone tower. I saw white flags fluttering in front of the pagoda, and in the middle was a stone platform. On the platform was a large incense table, enshrining the spiritual tablet of Master Miejie. Right in front of the stone platform, there is a girl with long hair like clouds, unparalleled beauty, and an extremely cold expression. She is wearing a black robe. She is the new head of the Emei Sect, Zhou Zhiruo.
The heroes of the Ming Cult won the Golden Summit along the way, and the nuns who watched on were very respectful to the elders of the Shaolin and Wudang sects, but were quite indifferent to the Ming Cult and the Beggar Clan. Fan Yao had known long ago that Long Xiaobao defeated the Emei Sect at the Southern Shaolin Heroes Meeting. At that time, he sneered and said in a low voice: "These girls are unworthy of being monks. They are so stingy!" At this moment, seeing Zhou Zhiruo's iceberg The beauty couldn't help but murmured again: "This little girl is so beautiful, why doesn't she seem to have any popularity? If any man marries her in the future, it will be like marrying a big piece of ice. Wouldn't it be bad?"
When Yang Xiao told him about the "Lion-Slaying Heroes Club", he deliberately ignored Song Qingshu because he was concerned about the reputation of Wudang and Emei sects, so Fan Yao didn't know that Zhou Zhiruo was already "married". Although his voice was extremely low, Zhou Dian behind him could hear it clearly and couldn't help but say: "Mr. Fan is unaware that the husband of Master Zhou is Song Qingshu, a rebel of the Wudang Sect. He is now dead. She is actually a widow" Yang Xiao and Wei Yixiao coughed loudly at the same time, thinking that only our brothers could hear what they said. If it fell into the ears of the Emei disciples, they would not let it go.
Suddenly, a cold voice was heard: "Seniors, all the heads have come a long way. I would like to thank you all. Please take a seat. The memorial ceremony for our master will begin immediately." After saying this, he waved his jade hand lightly and the bell rang again. Everyone indifferently divided into two sides and sat down.
Thirty-three nuns sat cross-legged in front of the stone platform, twisting Buddhist beads in their right hands and placing the palm of their left hand on their chests, chanting scriptures in unison. In an instant, a faint sadness filled the Golden Summit of Emei
