Following the white-haired old man coming out of the house, there was also a younger old man in brown clothes. As soon as the two stepped out, two people quickly rushed out of the pavilion. They were waiting aside, anxious.
However, he respectfully led the two elders to the pavilion. Naturally, the rest of the people in the pavilion had already stood up to greet them and bowed their hands in greeting.
The old man in brown clothes is Cheng Yin, the head of Taiji Village, and the old man with white hair is Weng Zhenhuai, a well-known miracle doctor in Wudang. They are also the elders whom the old man asked Jiang Yichen to visit on his behalf.
The group in the pavilion were the ones who had experienced a bloody battle at the three intersections, and Jiang Yichen was among them. After everyone worked together to kill Jiang Zheng, they hurried to Tai Chi Village considering that their two seriously injured companions were in urgent need of medical treatment.
Unexpectedly, it rained heavily, and the distance of three to four miles made it difficult for them to travel.
After everyone arrived in the village, the villagers were also very concerned. The village chief Cheng Yin helped carry the injured to Mr. Huai's home in Weng Town for treatment. He also acted as Mr. Weng's assistant and was busy inside.
The enthusiastic villagers briefly treated the wounds of the remaining seven people and provided them with dinner to satisfy their hunger. A group of people were worried about the safety of their two companions and were afraid of disturbing the villagers too much, so they stayed quietly in the pavilion in front of Weng's hometown, waiting.
Treatment results.
During this period, a strong monk named Zhangsan was saddened by the continuous drizzle. He stood up, faced the sky, wept, clasped his hands together, and recited Buddhist scriptures.
When Jiang Yichen and Hong Que saw this, they stepped forward to show concern. The people who had been silent before just exchanging names now exchanged opinions and comforted each other.
The two deputy sect masters of Wuxiang Sect have disappeared within the past two months, and the master of the sect has also suddenly disappeared in the past two days. The person in charge of the sect suddenly lost its leader, and the group was leaderless. Today, the bandit leader of Danxia Villa was suddenly wiped out.
Together with several masters of Changsheng Village, they broke into the door and deliberately provoked trouble. They raised their knives to kill people at the slightest disagreement. The formation of nearly a hundred gangsters from the two gangs was huge and they were obviously well prepared. Wuxiang Sect originally had few manpower.
They were caught off guard, but fortunately the Daoyi Alliance seemed to have heard the news, and ten people came to help, so that everyone in the sect was not wiped out.
There were more than twenty people in the Wuxiang Sect, and they followed the Daoyi Alliance people and fled all the way to the three-way intersection. Until Jiang Yichen came to help, there were only three people left. In addition to the strong monk Zhangsan, there was also the seriously injured Shi Chenghe who stabbed him at the last moment.
Situ Zhong slashed Jiang Zheng on the back.
The ten members of the Daoyi Alliance also suffered losses. The survivors include the girl in red, Hongque, the man in black, Xunbao, and the seriously injured Wang Shide. In the end, the two swordsmen and the assassin who worked together to give Jiang Zheng a blow, Han Shimeng, Xie Shichao, and Kong Chuan all survived.
Six people.
"Mr. Weng, Mr. Cheng, what's going on with Brother Wang and Xiaoshi?" It was Zhangsan who spoke. His brows had not relaxed since he came to the pavilion.
"No vital parts were injured, but he lost too much blood. It's no longer serious. He will be fine after a few days of rest." Mr. Weng raised his hands gently to express relief to everyone.
"That's good. Thank you, Mr. Weng, for helping me." Zhang San was about to thank him, but was stopped by Cheng Yin.
"Hey, it doesn't have to be like this. What's the current situation in your family?" Cheng Yin asked back.
"In the sect... the two deputy sect masters in the sect have not been seen for some time. They are free and uninhibited by nature, or where they linger in the beautiful scenery and forget to leave is unknown. Therefore, the sect has not been too worried until this moment.
For two days, even the sect master was nowhere to be found, and the people in the sect realized that something was fishy. But today, something unexpected happened in the sect. Except for the three main and deputy sect masters who were not in the sect, they did not know whether they were alive or dead.
There are four people, and the only three left are me, Situ Zhong, and Xiao Shi." Zhang San's eyes dimmed and he answered sadly, then he turned to Hong Que, Xun Bao and others, clasped their hands and bowed again, "It's really me.
Unfortunately, it also drags down the friends of the Daoyi Alliance."
"This is not Wu Xiangmen's fault. Now that the matter has come to this, Third Brother Zhang must not blame himself. We still need to find out why the gangsters in Danxia Villa and Changsheng Villa suddenly launched an attack." The one who spoke was Hongque, despite his age. Qingqing, but she is the person in charge of the Daoyi Alliance in Wudang, and Xunbao's identity is the same as Murong Jing. He is responsible for the transmission of information between Wudang and Xijiang County. The information about the Wuxiang Sect's sudden disaster is He passed the news to Cardinal, and then they came to the rescue together.
"Yes, do you know why these bandits are doing this?" Weng Zhenhuai looked at Zhang San. Zhang San is one of the guardians of the Wuxiang Sect, and may have more information.
"Perhaps they covet my sect's "Wuxian Sitting and Forgetting the Mind"." Zhang San thought for a moment and then returned.
"Wuxiang sits and forgets his mind? It's no wonder that Wuxiang Sect is derived from the Xiaoyao Sect in the past. Although it is attached to the Jiuzhou Alliance, the philosophy of the sect is closer to Taoism, advocating no self and no form. He is carefree and inactive. There are not many like-minded people in the martial arts world. Therefore, he does not have many disciples. Because he rarely participates in trivial matters in the martial arts world, he is also alienated from other gangs. It is said that the founder of the sect, Master Shen Qian, practices the practice of sitting without form and forgetting the mind. When the Dharma reaches the supreme state, it is possible to use Qi to slave the sword, transmit sound into secrets, and after running the inner strength, the inner strength will be endless. He can fight against several masters for three days and two nights without losing. It is a pity that Master Shen Qian likes to be alone. In the past, when he was already very old, he accepted the three brothers of the Gu family as his disciples and granted them these unique mental skills. However, before they even imparted 30% of them, they had already become immortals. Therefore, the Wuxiang Sect has always been known to the world. Forget it, this encounter is the crime of cherishing a jade..." Cheng Yin said, stroking his beard lightly.
"The Wuxiang Sect has been in the Qingsong Forest for more than ten years. Although the Wuxiang Sitting and Forgetting Mind Technique is well-known, it is not easy to practice, and it is only an intermediate level among the wood-based internal skills and mind techniques. However, the gangsters of Danxia Villa and Changsheng Villa Human beings have been in Wudang for more than a year or two. If they have evil intentions, why haven't they taken action?" Xunbao on the side asked questions.
"Little Leopard has some clues. There are no outsiders here, but it doesn't matter." Cheng Yinpin understood the meaning of Xun Bao's words and immediately asked back.
"There should be someone behind the scenes who is secretly controlling this situation. The specific force is not clear yet, but according to what I have found, it may be inseparable from the Nether Sect and the Twelve Heavenly Evil Sects." When Xunbao saw what the village chief Cheng Yin said, he no longer concealed anything and spoke out.
"Regardless of the bandit masters among them, those little minions all have quick hands and are extremely strong. This is most likely the trick of the Netherworld Sect." Hong Que analyzed accordingly.
Listening to everyone's analysis, Jiang Yichen was silent and held his chin in deep thought. Yesterday, the Jin Yiwei went to Wudang to ask for the secret method but failed and was expelled by Master Xuchen. Today, the Wuxiang Sect was brutally killed by the gangsters because of the secret method. Encirclement and annihilation, is there any connection between them? After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Yichen explained what happened in Wudang yesterday to everyone present to help everyone clarify the relationship and have a clear idea.
"According to what Jiang Shaoxia said, maybe the imperial court is involved in this?" Zhang San raised his eyebrows. Wuxiang Sect and Wudang Sect are almost the same. Wudang is completely closed-door. Wuxiang Sect is slightly better, but it comes from the sect. He had little communication with the outside world, and the information was even more blocked. He did not understand why the imperial court would search for martial arts and internal skills of various sects, and it was even more difficult to imagine that the imperial court would collude with the evil sect Nether Sect and borrow the help of bandits. To deal with them with human hands.
"I'm afraid there is no way to escape the relationship. After this battle, has the central law been lost?" It was Weng Zhenhuai who spoke. After listening to everyone's few words, he couldn't help but look sad. He is now in his old age and has rarely seen
He was involved in Jianghu affairs, but in recent years there have been frequent incidents in Jianghu affairs. He had also heard about it, and he had suspected that the imperial court was deliberately disrupting the situation. The current situation has confirmed his thoughts. The government is unjust, but it frequently interferes in Jianghu affairs, causing chaos in the world.
It will be up soon.
"No, when we evacuated the green pine forest, it was set on fire. The method of sitting and forgetting the mind is difficult to understand, and it is even more difficult to practice. There are not many brothers in the sect, but the ones who have been practicing for the shortest time are several years, and they all forget the mind.
Only when you have memorized the Dharma in your heart can you study it at any time. Therefore, if there are only three people left in the sect, then the Dharma will only be in the minds of the three of me." Thinking of the sect members who have been together for many years, one by one, passed away day and night, I am determined.
Ru Zhangsan's eyes were filled with tears again.
"My condolences." After hearing this, Weng Zhenhuai stopped talking and patted Zhangsan's shoulder several times to comfort him.
"Today's matters need to be discussed in the long term. It's already getting late. We'll make plans tomorrow. If you don't want to go into the house, you should rest early. I'll ask someone to bring some quilts. Don't catch a cold in this weather." Cheng on the side.
Yin said.
Without any further excuses, everyone paid their respects to the two elders and spent the night in the pavilion.
The long night was long, but it was difficult for Zhang San and Situ Zhong, who had just suffered the tragic death of their family, to fall asleep. Before midnight, they quietly left the pavilion, each secretly led the horse out of the stable, walked out of the village entrance, and walked up the road.
Go, before they go far, they see a person lying on the boulder in front of him, covering his body with a big bamboo hat. The big bamboo hat looks familiar, and that person seems to have been waiting for them there.
