Chu Yiyi said: "The 'Heart Cleansing Technique' is the best evil skill of the Wusheng Old Demon. Although the young master is smart, how can you come up with a solution in a few days? If you are so sleepless, you will definitely be exhausted. "
Hua Bushi said: "Xi Ri is the only descendant of Brother Ma Wu. I must save him. Mrs. Yiyi doesn't need to worry about me. You can go first. I have my own discretion in the treatment."
Chu Yiyi frowned slightly, walked to the chair opposite Hua Bushi and sat down, saying: "If the young master refuses to rest, and Yiyi won't leave, just sit here and accompany the young master."
Hua Bushi looked up at Chu Yiyi and saw her persistent look, so he had to smile bitterly and said: "Okay, okay, why don't I go and have a rest? Mrs. Yiyi, let's go first. I'll clean up the things on the table and then go back to sleep. "
Today is the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, and twenty-one days have passed since the battle at the foot of Yuyang Mountain. It has been three days since the people of the "Evil Dog Sect" returned to Kaifeng City from Wangwu Mountain, and the war against the "Wealthy Alliance" It has already ended.
After finding Hua Bushi at the foot of Yuyang Mountain that night, the people from the "Evil Dog Sect" met with the demon cultists who were chasing them. There was a fight between the two parties, and after several people were killed by the musket array of the Perak camp, the demon cultists The crowd immediately retreated.
Hua Bushi ordered everyone to find a dangerous hillside to camp, and withdrew the Pili camp disciples in Mituo Valley to avoid being attacked by the demons. On the third day, reinforcements from the "Arhat Sect" and the "Shaolin Sect" arrived. Arrive.
After hearing the summons, the "Six Provinces Boxing Champion" Fang Changsheng and Master Wuchen personally led more than a hundred elite masters from the two sects to come. After meeting with the people of the "Evil Dog Sect", several principals discussed briefly and decided to concentrate Force to attack the demon's lair.
A total of more than 400 people from the three sects took a detour to the mountain behind Xiandu Peak to build ladders and prepare to cross the cliff.
I originally thought that this attack on the mountain would be a fierce battle, but surprisingly, the climb up the cliff was very smooth, and there was no obstruction at all. And from the tunnel in the mountain to the Fairy Spirit Palace on the mountainside, there was still no sight. Even the lost-hearted beasts in Wuyou Mansion had disappeared without a member of the Demonic Cult.
The Fairy Spirit Palace was empty. It turned out that the demons had evacuated earlier, the artifacts in the palace had been moved away, and the iron cage secret passage leading down from the mountain to Amitabha Valley had been destroyed.
Three groups of people searched everywhere on the mountainside and top of the mountain for half a day, but found nothing, so they set a fire to burn down the palace buildings on the mountainside, and then returned down the mountain from the cliff.
The destruction of the Demonic Lair this time was considered a bloodless victory, but the subsequent battle with the "Wealth Alliance" paid a heavy price.
The three factions had just descended from Xiandu Peak when they received a message from Fei Ge. However, it was the Baidao troops who had assembled at the southern foot of Wangwu Mountain who were attacked. The enemy launched a large-scale attack. Except for the Wangwu faction gang and the "Wealthy Alliance", the attackers There are also hundreds of crazy masters in the Jianghu gangs that have been roped in.
These crazy masters are undoubtedly the lost-hearted beasts in the Wuyou Mansion. It turns out that Zhuo Yiwen used a tactic to avoid the real situation and take advantage of the weak point. He voluntarily gave up the Mi Tuo Valley, but took the opportunity to outflank and raid the opponent's retreat.
Among the troops at the southern foot of Wangwu Mountain, in addition to the heroes from dozens of sects in Henan Province, there are also hundreds of disciples from the "Shaolin Sect" and the "Arhat Sect". Although they are large in number, the elite masters in the sects are not there. Among them, it was difficult to withstand the all-out attack of the "Wealthy Alliance". By the time Master Fang Changsheng Wuchen and others rushed back from Yuyang Mountain, they had already suffered heavy casualties, losing hundreds of people.
If the strength of the "Arhat Sect", "Shaolin Sect" and Yujing Baidao sects was much higher than that of the "Fugui Alliance" before, after this raid, they suffered a huge blow. The remaining troops may not be stronger than the other party. How much.
However, the war had begun and could only be fought to the end. Fang Changsheng and Wuchen arrived with elite troops, repelled the enemy's attack, slightly reorganized the remaining troops, and immediately ordered a counterattack on Fugui Villa.
A melee lasted for two days and two nights, during which anti-Japanese troops also participated. After all, the strength of the "Fugui Alliance" was still slightly inferior, and Fugui Villa was finally captured by the Bai Dao heroes.
Although this battle was won, it could only be regarded as a tragic victory. Over a hundred disciples of the "Arhat Sect" were injured, and more than 30 or 40 monks of the "Shaolin Sect" were killed in the battle. Among the other allied Jianghu sects, Most of the people were killed or injured.
The sect with the least damage on the Baidao side is the "Evil Dog Sect", because the "Qingyun Sword Formation" is extremely powerful, the Pili Camp's Musket Formation is mainly used for long-range strikes, and Hua Bushi's command is quite conservative. Only twenty or thirty disciples were lost in this battle, and among the forty-nine Qingyun Guards, only five or six suffered minor injuries.
The winner suffered heavy losses, and the loser's "Fugui Alliance" suffered a lot of casualties. The "Wangwu Sect" was wiped out, ten of the Jianghu sects who had taken refuge in them were wiped out, and most of the disciples who participated in this incident were wiped out. Most of the troops and horses from all walks of life in the Henan Province were also killed, and not a single one of the hundreds of Heartless Beasts was left alive.
However, these casualties were just cannon fodder, and the leaders of the other side were not among them. Zuo Junhua, the owner of Fugui Villa, had fled to the capital with his followers before the battle, and none of the demon cultists showed up. Zhuo Yiwen, Yunjiang, and Wuying all disappeared. If there were any losses, except for the iron-faced giant Xiri Ahong, they were just those lost-hearted beasts.
Although this battle against the "Wealth Alliance" seemed to be a complete victory in the end, judging from the actual damage, both the black and white circles in Yu Realm, and all the sects and forces of all the masters, were greatly damaged, and their vitality was greatly damaged. Apart from losing a Mi Tuo Valley, the demonic side did not suffer much actual damage. It is really difficult to say who will win or lose in this outcome.
News of the large-scale private fighting among the mobs in Henan soon reached the capital. Zuo Junhua also promptly filed a complaint with Dali Temple. Emperor Zhu Youjian Longyan was furious and immediately dismissed Fan Jingwen, the governor of Henan, for being unfavorable in maintaining local public security and issued a decree. Zhu Dadian, the Minister of Dali Temple, removed the officials responsible for the investigations in various states in Henan Province and seriously investigated the culprits.
There have always been a lot of fights in the Jianghu. As long as they were not enemies of the government, the court would rarely intervene. Most of them would turn a blind eye. This has become a common practice, because the Jianghu gangs mostly occupy their own territory. The local government can't control it even if they want to. But this time, they suddenly want to conduct a large-scale investigation and hold the relevant officials accountable. It is really unusual.
Zhu Dadian is the leader of the Donglin Party. As a result, the imperial party will have the upper hand in the Donglin Party, and it will be just around the corner to gain control of Henan.
In any case, the situation in Yujing has finally stabilized, and for the "Evil Dog Gate", the partisanship in the court will not have any impact for the time being.
After returning to Kaifeng City from Wangwushan, Hua Bushi stayed at home and concentrated on studying how to crack the "Heart Cleansing Method".
There are twenty-eight courtyards in the Yang family's old house. Hua Bushi gave up the back house to Yang Sichang's family, while he lived in a side courtyard. For most of the past ten days, he spent most of the time in front of Xiri Ahong's bed.
However, after many days of attempts, there was no progress at all. The young master came up with various methods to make him take different medicines, use silver needles to prick acupuncture points, cupping steaming and other methods, and also talked in his ears " Dongting Gang" and Ma Wuhua even drew a diagram of the "Yum Sheng Divine Fist" for him to look at, trying to guide him to recall the past, but Xiri Ahong was still lying on the bed with his eyes straight, without any reaction at all.
The "Heart-Cleaning Method" taught by Xiri Ahong seems to be much more serious than Qi Kongshan and Shaolin Master Wuxiang in Wuyou Mansion. These methods alone cannot arouse his memory at all. His current situation is, He only maintains his life by drinking some ginseng soup and gruel every day, and he is no different from a living dead.
Hua Bushi is a persistent person. The less he makes progress, the more he refuses to give up. Since he came to the room yesterday, he has been thinking hard about how to treat Xiri Ahong. Unknowingly, a whole day has passed.
Chu Yiyi saw that although Hua Bushi agreed, he still sat by the bed and said, "I won't leave first. Young master, go and have a rest now. I will help you clean up the things on the table." ,"
Hua Bushi had no choice but to stand up and said, "Okay, let's pack our things together, that's all."
Seeing the reluctant look on the young master's face, Chu Yiyi said: "Master Hua doesn't know how to take care of his own body. If Miss Jiangyi finds out, she will definitely be sad."
Of course Hua Bushi knew Chu Yiyi's concern, and he was quite grateful in his heart. Hearing her mention Yang Jiangyi, he asked: "I asked my wife to help find my sister's whereabouts. It has been several months now, and I still haven't." Didn’t you get any news?"
Chu Yiyi smiled sweetly and said: "Young master misses your sister Jiangyi. Yiyi knows that I have asked Qianhuafang to do their best to find out. If there is any news, I will tell you immediately."
Before the things on the table were put away, a noise was heard from the direction of the front door, and a disciple hurried in.
"Inform the young master, Elder Zhong of the 'Arhat Sect' and the leaders of more than a dozen sects are here to visit, saying that they have important matters to meet with the young master," the disciple reported.
"Elder Zhong, is it Zhong Yuanhao? Did he tell you what the important matter is?" Hua Bushi asked.
"That's Zhong Yuanhao. He didn't say what happened, but he was so arrogant that he barged directly into the front hall. Even the disciples guarding the door couldn't stop them."
Hua Bushi's face darkened slightly when he heard this and said, "Okay, I'll go over and have a look."
He walked out of the house and into the courtyard, only to see a tall, thin old man wearing a black robe standing in the pavilion with his hands behind his back, with a leisurely expression, as if he was enjoying the scenery.
Seeing Hua Bushi coming out of the room, the old man in black robe raised his lips slightly, showed a faint smile, and said: "Boy, it seems that someone is coming to trouble you, do you need my help to deal with it?"
This old man in black robe is Guo Loumeng. His current appearance is of course disguised and not his real appearance.
