On Baihua Island, the spring scenery is bright, the mountain flowers are blooming, and the flowers are blooming.
This fertile soil gave birth to this colorful world.
However, behind the seemingly glamorous scene, there are unknown and secret conflicts and endless overextraction.
As time goes by, the weak wither and the strong bloom, no matter how fertile the soil is, it will eventually become barren, and no matter how beautiful the flowers are, they will eventually turn into dust.
What can still remain on this land are either the new shoots that have sprouted out of the ground or the branches that have been struggling to survive in the cracks of the rocks for many years.
They may be inconspicuous, but they are always adapting to the most difficult environments and are the most tenacious lives.
Isn’t this the case in this world?
"Hongchen Inn? I've never heard of this name?"
On the high platform northeast of Wujianping, a group of people from the Tushita Gang and Buji Island gathered here. The question raised by Mei Huaijin was almost everyone present.
"Xiao Liu and I happened to stay at this inn before we came from the north to meet you."
The porter's words immediately aroused everyone's interest. Egg asked: "Oh? What did you discover at that time?"
"We met two Hongchen Inns along the way. One was larger, and the other was probably a newly opened branch with not many staff." The porter rubbed his chin, recalling the situation at that time.
"North..." Egg lowered his head and pondered thoughtfully, "Can you remember the general direction?"
"Before arriving in Jinzhou, I can't remember the details..." The porter shook his head and looked at Xiaoliu.
Xiao Liu hurriedly waved his hands and said: "I was in a hurry and didn't pay attention."
Egg said: "So, you are staying at the new inn."
Xiaoliu said: "We have to go on a journey and have to sleep in the open air. How can we find a place to live? It wasn't until we entered Guizhou Province that we found a place to stay."
Egg said: "The two places are far apart. Are you sure these two inns are the same?"
"I'm not 100% sure, but I'm 70% sure." The porter folded his arms and raised his chin, arched his head towards the place where everyone was sitting at the Hongchen Inn on Wujianping, and said firmly: "We have seen four of those people, and it's that one
The owner and waiter of an inn."
After hearing the words, Egg understood clearly and knew that he couldn't ask for any more clues, so he glanced at the slim figure behind the smiling Maitreya, and said in a strange voice: "Hey, stinky bitch, do you know what this Hongchen Inn is?"
The details?"
There are not many women in the Tushita Gang, and there is only one snake girl Ji Qianlin who shows off her figure with glamorous makeup.
Even though Buji Island and the Tushita Gang have been in alliance for many years, Egg still doesn't change the name they were enemies from the beginning.
Ji Qianlin was never angry about this. She looked back and said, "Is Little Dandan asking for help?"
Egg curled his lips and said arrogantly: "It's up to you whether you want to or not!"
Ji Qianlin giggled and said, "The slave family loves Little Egg the most, so of course I know everything."
Egg said happily: "Say it quickly."
Ji Qianlin suddenly stopped laughing and sighed regretfully: "I don't know."
Dandan's face changed, and he almost jumped up, yelling angrily: "Hey! You stinky bitch, you're actually teasing me!?"
Although he said this, Egg did not show any anger, and the people around him seemed to be used to this, and no one interrupted.
Ji Qianlin said seriously: "What is certain is that there was no gang like this in the Four Seas Alliance three years ago. However, at this time, anyone who dares to sign up for a battle will definitely not overestimate their capabilities."
"Cut!" Egg snorted disdainfully, seeming to be muttering, "Who can't see this?"
"There are ten of them here. This is quite a battle." After the porter said that he had seen a few of them, Mei Huaijin observed them for a while and came to a conclusion.
Egg said: "It's just two inns. There is really no need to worry about the safety of the lair like other gangs. Of course, this also shows that they are well prepared."
While they were talking, Yu Hui, the master of Sun Moon Castle, was seen walking towards Hongchen Inn and others on Wujian Ping. I wonder if he was going to persuade Hongchen Inn to give up this fight?
Mei Huaijin said: "The rules Feng Chen mentioned before do not involve how to determine the positions of the eight gangs in each alliance."
Egg said: "That means everything outside the rules is allowed."
Mei Huaijin said: "The four weaker gangs will have to negotiate and come up with a result on their own."
Egg said: "It depends on whether you discuss it with your mouth or with your fists."
"Then it's not like we're going to fight to the death, right?" Mei Huaijin suddenly became excited and realized something, "Doesn't this mean that the battle across the world can be fought to the death?"
Egg said: "If we haven't agreed in advance, we can do whatever we want."
Mei Huaijin said: "Then how can we reduce the casualties of various factions?"
Egg said: "This is indeed a way to minimize the loss of personnel between the two alliances. The grievances that the two sides have accumulated over the years must be released somewhere."
At this time, the discussion between Sun Moon Castle and Hongchen Inn has come to a conclusion.
Sun Moon Castle launched a challenge to Hongchen Inn.
The challenge is divided into two rounds, with each team sending one person in each round. If Hongchen Inn can block three attacks in the first round, or break through Sun Moon Fort's defense within three opportunities in the second round, Sun Moon Fort will immediately withdraw from the qualification competition.
Upon seeing this, Smiling Maitreya judged: "Yu Hui is also cautious. Sun Moon Castle has hammers that can split mountains and gravel, and it also has indestructible walls. This way they have the upper hand."
Xie Fei said without comment: "Since Hongchen Inn dares to take over this game, it's hard to say who will have the last laugh."
The smiling Maitreya said: "We'll see."
Not long after, a person stood out from the Sun Moon Fort.
This man is of middle age, tall and tall, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. His arms are like pillars, and he is carrying a sphere the size of an adult on one shoulder, and he still walks with wind.
Every time he took a step, people around him could feel the vibrations coming from under their feet. It was not until he walked further into the center of Wujian Ping that there was no one around, and the vibrations gradually lessened.
"Sun and Moon Castle, Thunder Hammer, Xiong Lie, please give me your advice!" Xiong Lie signed up for his number. He was really like a bear with a strong waist and a tiger's back, with a voice as loud as thunder. Few people could match him in terms of momentum alone.
The appearance of his opponent was quiet in comparison.
The figure standing opposite Xiong Lie was not much worse than him, but as he walked along, his eyelids were drooped and his eyes were not squinting, which made people look lifeless and unenergized.
The man had dark skin and simple clothes. It was hard to tell whether he was old or young, but there was no hair on his head. Although the nine-star ring scar was deliberately erased, it was still vaguely visible.
Although he seemed strange to everyone, it was not difficult to guess that this person was from Shaolin.
"Duren." The dark-skinned monk held an eyebrow-level stick in one hand and held it in front of his chest with the other. With his five fingers together and erect, he announced his name concisely and concisely.
Immediately, he turned his body slightly to one side and made a slight Buddhist salute towards Master Qingming, the abbot of Shaolin.
He has parted ways with Shaolin for many years, but he has never forgotten that Shaolin supported him back then, and 80% of his abilities were taught by Shaolin.
The ambition of the group of heroes turns out to be true.
When Shaolin was at its peak, there were tens of thousands of disciples. Although Master Qingming was the master of a temple, it was difficult to remember the appearance of every Shaolin disciple. Now that times have changed, it is impossible to recognize which master this person was in the past.
Brother, a senior disciple, could not help but have mixed feelings about this scene, and secretly sighed: "If it hadn't been for what happened after the war with the foreign barbarians, which caused many elite disciples to become discouraged, quit Shaolin, and go their separate ways, how could we be here today?
So declining.”
There was no way to express the bitterness in his heart, so Master Qingming just returned the favor silently and said "Amitabha".
Xiong Lie is an impatient person and likes the pleasure of cutting through troubles with a quick knife. Seeing Du Ren's mother-in-law appearance, he immediately shouted impatiently: "Watch the move!"
Having said that, he no longer waited for the ferryman to be ready, let the heavy hammer drag on the ground, ran quickly, and launched an offensive!
"First hit, five successes!"
When everyone saw it, it looked like a huge human-shaped bear, easily dragging a carriage full of goods, sprinting five or six feet away, and then swinging the carriage into the sky, cutting half of the sky. There seemed to be the sound of wind and thunder, rumbling.
It made a loud noise, and then hit hard!
The heroes secretly smacked their tongues, and many people secretly speculated, if they were to resist such a heavy blow, would they turn into a puddle of flesh?
meeting!
This is the answer in most people's minds.
Fortunately, the Thunder Hammer was not aimed at them at this moment.
Of course, even if it really hits them, they will never act like fools and not dodge.
However, Du Ren, who was standing in the field, had no choice but to dodge like a fool and had to bear the thunderous blow!
The ferryman didn't make any fancy movements, he just put his hands together, placed them on his chest, and silently recited the Buddha's name.
And with the single stick between his arms, he was actually holding his own head facing the huge heavy hammer!
Everyone couldn't help but be startled, secretly exclaiming that this move was too big, and they would not suffer disaster.
In their hearts, Du Ren has been sentenced to death!
The moment the heavy hammer fell, many people actually looked away, unable to bear to look any further.
Boom!——
Everyone only heard the sound of bell-ringing rippling from the Sword Dance Platform, blowing their earlobes and tapping their hearts, as if the Buddha's name was lingering in their minds for a long time.
"Shaolin Golden Bell! No wonder you are so confident." Xie Fei saw that the crossing man was still standing intact in the field, and a foot away from his body, there was a faint Buddha's light that looked like a bell, and he knew that he could break the thunder.
Hammer method.
Smiling Maitreya said: "The defense principle of the Shaolin Golden Bell is to use the shape of the Hong Zhong to disperse the forces and cancel each other out, so as to protect itself from its forces. And what this Duren has done is obviously more than that.
, although you can’t see clearly here, you can still see that his body sank a lot. If my guess is correct, the ground he is standing on has sunk at least two or three inches."
Xie Fei said: "You mean, he does not absorb the force and make it cancel each other out, but removes the force?"
The smiling Maitreya said: "Not bad."
Xie Fei said: "In this way, even if Xiong Lie uses ten successes, Du Ren can still resist easily?"
Smiling Maitreya said: "In this ideal state, I don't know if its power is enough to guide more power, but this method can withstand more damage than the original golden bell."
Smiling Maitreya added: "This golden bell fuses the Tao of Tai Chi. To be precise, it should be the 'Hunyuan Golden Bell'."
