Chapter VI Conspiracy
Li Xiudao: "It's indeed abnormal. It's still barely reasonable to have no sect leader. After all, there are great elders who preside over Wufeng, but including the great elders, the six elders, even the youngest elders who passed on merit, are over seventy years old. Judging from the age group, the three generations of disciples are indeed too young, and as far as I know, there is no prohibition on intermarriage and having children. In this way, they are like Wufeiyun, and more like the fourth generation of disciples. Is there a real third generation of disciples? Is it..."
Wu Daozi said, "It seems that you don't need me to say more, and I know the problem."
Li Xiudao: "Is it a split?"
"It's just a split!" Wu Daozi said, "What you see now is that the faction is led by me and advocates conservative efforts to steadily develop our sect. However, some people went against my will. Although they did not set up another branch, they also drew away the vast majority of the elites and main forces of our sect. They wanted to make a difference in troubled times. Decades ago, the Bule Kingdom overthrew the rule of the Daguan Kingdom, attacked the capital, plowed the ground, and won a great victory. They could not escape the large group of radical masters united by the Thirty-Six Islands. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Conservatism and radicality have been inevitable theorems that exist among groups since ancient times, because competition is the key to progress, but I don't understand, how can such a thing be separated from your control?" Li Xiu felt that things were not as simple as Wu Daozi stated.
Wu Daozi sighed and said, "I am old, are you satisfied with this answer?"
Li Xiu sneered and said, "It doesn't matter if I'm satisfied or not. Can you tell me so many things today that shouldn't have let me know? I know if you don't say it. Actually, I have guessed that person who goes against your wishes should be the leader of Wufeng, right?"
Wu Daozi said, "Yes, that is not only my most proud disciple, but also my great-grandson. His name is Wusang."
"You can take the name of Wushen as a name, which shows that you had high expectations for him and could go against your wishes, which led to Wushen's complete split into two factions. You are still helpless. It shows that Wushen's ability is not inferior to you, or his cunning has surpassed you." Li Xiu said: "Tell me, I don't like to play with vain. Since you have come to me, you must have something to do!"
Wu Daozi said: "Talking to smart people is refreshing. I hope you can help me disguise. I suspect someone wants to harm me in secret."
"Oh? What do you say?" Li Xiu thought.
Wu Daozi did not answer immediately, but suddenly stared at Li Xiu and looked at Li Xiu carefully. Because at this time, it was the best time for Li Xiu to make the conditions, but Li Xiu did not make any conditions at all, which was beyond his expectations.
Li Xiu naturally saw through his thoughts and said, "I have told you a long time ago that I am willing to help you this time because Wufeng gives me a piece of tiles to cover my body in the past six months. Unless I can't do my best, I will do my best!"
"Okay, very good. I did not read you wrong, young man." Wu Daozi said, "Since that's the case, I will just say it. You know that Wu Gu is my most trusted grandson. I shouldn't have doubted him at first, but he actually got rid of one person when I was infatuated, confused and had no mentality recently."
"who?"
"Jiang Bubi of the Jiang family in Baimahu is a master of the Great Perfect Golden Elixir."
"Oh?" Li Xiu was also surprised. A wealthy family in the world actually hid such a master?
Wu Daozi said, "In Liuyun Cave, I heard everything my ancient capital said to you, but he did not tell you one thing."
"What's up?"
"Although the Baima Jiang family has a master of the Great Perfect Golden Pill, the treasures they obtained in the previous dynasty have long been made public, so why has no one forced them to be forced to do so yet?" Wu Daozi asked and answered himself without waiting for Li Xiu to speak: "Because everyone understands that behind this secret, there is always undercurrents. Once someone forces forward, no matter whether they succeed or not, they will be killed!"
"So you have seen through this point long ago." Li Xiu nodded and said, "I must have understood this more clearly in ancient times, but he still did it, and he thought it was not a big deal, so he even kept the boy from the Baima Jiang family."
"So I can only pretend to be crazy." Wu Daozi said: "I broke the death gate half a year ago and almost died. It happened to be an opportunity. I want everyone to know that I have become a useless person and take off my defenses. I want to see how Wu Gu will deal with the next thing. Also, your place is not safe. Liuyun Cave is a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. You can consider it."
Li Xiudao: "Since you trust me so much, you must cooperate with the whole process of disguise. Otherwise, it is not easy to hide it from everyone!"
As the two were talking, they suddenly felt someone approaching the clinic quickly and pushed the door in a moment. The two looked at each other and understood it. Wu Daozi quickly lay down and pretended to be dying. Li Xiu took the needle box and quickly pricked Wu Daozi for more than a dozen needles. Wu Daozi cooperated very well and fell asleep peacefully.?
As the night became deeper, Hu Zi avoided the secret whistle of Minggang and quietly left Wufeng. He carried a simple luggage, slapped a medicine box across his shoulder, and ran for more than twenty miles in one breath. Then he took a rest. The night was hazy. He looked back at the big peak behind him, and the shadowy mountains added a bit of strangeness. He was obviously a disciple of Wufeng. He lived on Wufeng for more than a year and was already very familiar with every grass and tree there, but how could he feel such a distance at this moment? He remembered before he parted with Li Xiu.
If he agreed to meet again in seven days, what should he do if Li Xiu cannot go down the mountain in seven days? He knew that Li Xiu was a person who could do what he said. If he could go down the mountain, it means that Hu Zi knew very well. Should he continue to escape or avenge Li Xiu? If he avenged revenge, could he do it? Li Xiu said that he was gifted, but he never said how talented he was. Can he defeat Wufeng's masters just by just a set of flame palms taught to him during the day?
No matter what, leave here first. Hu Zi was in a mess and had to cheer up. Just as he was about to continue running, he suddenly heard someone shouting, "Boy, why are you doing sneaky here? Who are you?"
Hu Zi suddenly heard the voice, was shocked and did not answer. He stroked his feet like a wild cat, and he crawled into the grass beside him without hesitation.
"Do you still want to escape?" The man was slightly stunned when he saw this. He obviously didn't expect that there would be such a timid guy. When he came to his senses, he could only hear rustling sounds. The boy was only a few breaths that he was stunned, and he could not hear any sound again. It was his turn to be surprised, and at the same time he was also angry. He let out a long roar, his body was like a swallow, flying on the grass, faster than Hu Zi. But strangely, he actually lost the trace of Hu Zi and searched this area back and forth, but he had no results.
Another person said, "What's going on?"
"A little monkey broke into our area, I had to pull him out and peel him off!"
"Are you dazzled? I kept staring at this path and didn't find any little monkeys."
"No, you didn't see him. That's because he just came down from Wufeng Mountain. This man was young, an eight-year-old child, and he was as timid as a mouse. You don't have to be nervous. His escaping skills are really good. We search carefully and must capture him. If the news leaks, you and I can't explain to our superiors."
"clear!"
Hu Zi buried his body with soil, and used dead leaves and weeds as covers, disguising his bags and medicine boxes as stones. He was able to hunt adult sharp-toothed cows at a young age. It is precisely because of this that he has gained the true teachings of Li Xiu. The saber-toothed cows have a very sensitive sense of smell and can smell the existence of the little demon flower two miles away, but they are still hunted by Hu Zi.
In the grass, thorns are everywhere, and they are a thick layer of disguise. Hu Zi is betting, because if he meets someone like Li Xiu, his disguise is of no use at all. In fact, he won the bet!
"Have you found it?"
"Maybe the little monkey escaped."
"Since that's the case, we will chase each other!"
An angry voice came from his ears, but Hu Zi did not move, as if he had not heard it.
After half an incense stick of time, the two previous voices came over again: "It seems that he has indeed left, damn it!"
"Senior brother doesn't have to lose interest in such a trivial matter. Anyway, if you don't say it, I won't say it. Who knows that a little monkey has appeared here? Besides, it's just a little monkey, there is no need to make a fuss. Let's go and catch it there, let's have a drink!"
As they said that, the two walked away again. This time Hu Zi waited for another stick of incense and confirmed that the two people would not come back. Then he poked his head out and breathed heavily: "It's so dangerous, Brother Li is right. Playing hard to get is a trick that people in the martial arts world often play. I have to deal with it carefully!" He immediately dug a pit with his hand and opened the medicine box. He saw that the medicine box was divided into two layers. The upper layer was some medicine bottles and medicine bags. Hu Zi took out all of them and stuffed them into his bag, while the lower layer was ten yellow croakers, neatly. Hu Zi did not hesitate and only took one of them and put them in the bag. He carried the bag again, and Hu Zi buried the medicine box and the remaining nine yellow croakers in the pit. After burying it, he quickly left here with a little disguise.
It was really inconvenient to move with such a large medicine box, so he had to do this. He did not dare to walk on the Mingdao and quietly walked among the weeds covered with thorns. I don’t know how long it took, Hu Zi used his limbs together, and his movements were sometimes as quick as a monkey, sometimes lying on the ground like a wild cat, occasionally poking his head out, looking at the hazy moon halo in the sky to confirm that he would not lose his direction. This level of absconding was very physically exhausted. Hu Zi’s whole body was already wet and sweating like rain, but his breathing was still rhythmic and not completely disordered. He tried to use the method given to him by Li Xiu.
Controlling the breathing frequency, lowering the gasp. Hiding in a bush, Hu Zi thought in his heart that it should be safe now. He also knew from the conversation between the two mysterious people that they controlled an area. Hu Zi didn't know how big this area was, and he had no time to think deeply about why such a group of unknown people appeared at the foot of Wufeng Mountain. In short, it would be no good to sneak into it. What he mainly thought was that he had crossed two ridges, at least ten miles away, and he could also tell where it was in the approximate direction.
