The national teacher does not practice

Chapter 229 Provocation and Stalking ([-] words for subscription)

"The meeting place is here."

The carriage stopped, Nangong Wan lifted the curtain, pointed to the theater outside, and said:

"There are no actors here tonight, only Jiang Hu."

Ji Pingan woke up from his doze, and said with a smile: "Then you and I will also make our debut."

As he spoke, he stopped the female passenger who raised her hand to open the curtain for him, and said:
"After getting out of the car, you are the landlord and I am the guest."

Nangong Wan smiled and said, "Understood, Xu Keqing."

This is the identity that the two temporarily fabricated for this party.

After saying these words, Nangong Wan, who had completely put down her figure and adjusted her position to the role of "female secretary", turned cold and regained the aura and majesty that the master of the sect should have.

The two got off the carriage one after another, and there were also some cars parked around them, but they kept a distance from each other. It seemed curious, but Nangong Wan ignored them, leaving only a few disciples to guard outside.

Stepping forward with his long legs, he walked towards the main entrance of the theatre, where the big red lantern was hung high.

Ji Pingan was half a step behind, and Hongying, who had taken off his straw hat, was another half step back.

In such a large sect, only three people entered.

The gatekeeper dressed as a businessman at the door saw a tall beauty approaching, his eyes lit up, and when he caught a glimpse of Hongying's murderous gaze, he backed away and opened his mouth:
"Please……"

"Crack." An invitation card from Hongying fell on the other party's face, and the few dared not speak out, they hurriedly turned sideways and lowered their heads to get out of the way, but they didn't know how many gestures they would listen to the woman in Xuelou.

Highlight a weak and incompetent.

But when he saw the man next to the legendary Tingxue host, he couldn't help being stunned, obviously quite surprised.

"The organizer of this gathering is the Martial Arts League, but leader Jiang is still stabilizing the situation in Sanhuang County, so he will definitely not be able to make it."

Nangong Wan wrapped the sound into a bundle with the air machine, and the sound was transmitted into the secret.

Ji Pingan nodded.

……

A group of people passed through the front half of the seat as the door face of the "front hall". Guided by the man in the short shirt inside the house, they came to the second light yellow carved double-leaf vertical wooden door.

As soon as you step in, you will suddenly see an open space with a ring-shaped stage in the center, but it is empty, surrounded by round tables.

At this moment, people from Jianghu, old or young, in various costumes were scattered around, and there were dozens of them, talking in low voices.

A string of lanterns hangs on the six red-painted wooden pillars supporting the building. The second floor is slightly dark and not open.

"brush--"

As soon as the three of them entered, they attracted many eyes.

Some people stood up and clasped their fists, some raised their glasses to signal, some nodded and said nothing, the reactions were different, but it was not lively, and everyone was not very willing to greet each other, and they all seemed preoccupied.

With a cold face, Nangong Wan went straight to the front row near the stage and sat down at an empty round table.

There are plenty of melons and fruits on the table, and the drinks are ready.

Ji Pingan sat down lightly, and then noticed that many eyes were on him.

Apparently, people showed great curiosity about the strange man next to Master Tingxue.

"The sects near Yuhang are generally not comparable to the alliance in Qixia Town. Some of the larger forces in the rivers and lakes in the rest of Lanzhou learned about it late, so they had to be absent, but there are also some forces that you should be familiar with."

Nangong Wan lowered her voice and cast her eyes in a certain direction:

"For example, the group on the opposite side belongs to the Tiandihui. The leader is Yuhang's 'sub-ruler', called Qiao San. In terms of power, he is only under Chen Zongruo, and ranks second within the gang."

That gangster sect with white palms and glowing hands that is very rich?Ji Pingan raised his head and looked to the opposite side, just in time to meet the eyes of the "sub-rudder master".

Qiao San is a middle-aged man with a dark complexion, tall and thin body, and two natural dark circles under his eyes.

He seemed to be observing here at the moment, seeing the two of them, he grinned, showing his white teeth, and smiled at him inexplicably.

Nangong Wan said with awe in her eyes:

"That old man over there is the famous Heavenly Secret Pavilion Master, and he has come this time."

Ji Ping'an looked over and saw an old man wearing a yarmulke and dressed outside a rich old courtyard beside a table, accompanied by several warrior guards.

Hmm... I'm an acquaintance, and when we met last time, I gave him some pointers... Speaking of which, I don't know when the guy in commoner clothes will come back, and teach this unworthy heir a lesson... Ji Pingan muttered in his heart.

It is in stark contrast to the mentality of the hostess who is both respectful and awe-inspiring.

Nangong Wan pointed to another one near the stage:
"That is Mendicantism, which is composed of a group of monks. The leader is called 'Buddha'. It is said that he came from Buddhism in the Southern Tang Dynasty, but you can tell from the name that it has nothing to do with Buddhist orthodoxy. None of these monks has anything to do with 'compassion'. The first half has nothing to do with it."

Buddhism?

Ji Pingan was a little bit more interested, and he saw several monks wearing monk robes.

It's just that their bodies are relatively strong, and their expressions are fierce. In front of everyone, there is an upside-down copper bowl.

The head of the "Buddha" is particularly fat, perhaps because it is hot, bald and covered with a layer of oil on his face.

"This mendicant religion has some background. There are rumors in the rivers and lakes that it is related to Yunlin Temple, but the government has investigated and found no clues, so it is not sure whether it is true or false. There is also a theory that some corrupt monks in the Southern Tang Dynasty deliberately It was exiled and formed, but it is also just a rumor." Nangong Wan added.

Tsk... The forces in the rivers and lakes near Yuhang are more complicated than I imagined.

Ji Pingan thought.

It's just that when he was in Qixia Town, the big sects didn't pay him any attention, and the small sects in these places were even more disregarded by him.

He silently commented on a group of miscellaneous fish that didn't even have a "sitting well".

Suddenly, his eyes passed over the group of monks, and fixed on a round table in the corner. To be precise, it was a pair of men and women changing clothes.

Judging by their appearance, the two are "Fire House" and "Bing Po"!
It really was them... Ji Ping'an's heart moved, and his original guess was confirmed by three points. This matter really has something to do with the "human world", otherwise it would be too coincidental.

Nangong Wan noticed his gaze, looked over, raised her eyebrows slightly, and said suspiciously:

"It's a strange sect, but the two men and women are quite unfamiliar."

Ji Pingan withdrew his gaze, and did not startle the snake:

"Maybe I asked for help."

Nangong Wan was puzzled, but wisely she didn't ask.

At this moment, her eyes flashed suddenly, and she saw a figure standing up in front of her and walking over.

Impressively, he was the first one to introduce, the Heaven and Earth will be divided into helmsmen, Qiao San.

At this moment, the tall, thin and dark middle-aged man came straight over, his eyes lingering on Nangong Wan's chest and long legs undisguisedly for a moment, Fang licked his lips, and said with a smile:
"I haven't seen you for a long time, the landlord of Nangong is becoming more and more attractive."

Immediately, his eyes were like knives, falling on Ji Ping'an's body, and tentatively said:

"I just came to the party, why did I bring a little boy, could it be a new concubine?"

"boom!"

Hongying next to her was furious, and she slapped the table with her palm, attracting the attention of the surroundings, and wanted to yell at her.

But Nangong Wan stopped her, her expression was cold:
"This is Xu Keqing from Xuelou, please respect yourself, Qiao Duozhu."

Qiao San said "Oh?", and instead of retreating, he advanced:

"I haven't heard of it. I heard that when Xuelou came to a guest, he looked very strange."

Nangong Wan said coldly: "Where does my sect invite experts to join, when will I notify you of the Tiandihui?"

At this time, the movement here also attracted the attention of other people, but everyone had time to watch and had no intention of interfering.

However, from the playful eyes of the men around and the changes in the atmosphere, there is a clear signal that:
The situation of Tingxuelou, which is not too famous outside, is indeed not good.

In Qixia Town, it's okay to not have a strong sense of presence, but in Yuhang, he is also faintly targeted.

It's not surprising, although in the "Cultivation World", women are exactly the same, Xin Yaoguang and Qi Hongmian are both top monks.

But in the Jianghu martial arts path, the number and cultivation of women are indeed relatively weak overall. After all, the "Warrior" path is really not suitable for women.

When Qiao San heard this, his face suddenly sank, he pressed his hands on the table, and leaned forward, like a vicious thin tiger, and then a smile appeared on his face again:
"The landlord Nangong has a good face and a good figure, but this mouth is a bit sharp, it should be changed."

Without waiting for the two girls to get angry, he suddenly turned his head to look at Ji Pingan, stared at him and said:

"This Xu Keqing, you say... right?"

Ji Pingan smiled without saying a word.

In his eyes, even the boss Chen is just a tyrant who occupies some ordinary business, not to mention this Qiao San.

If it wasn't for the presence of a monk in the world, he would not want to scare the snake. Although such a small person has a cultivation base of breaking the ninth middle school, with his means, he can also be easily wiped out.

But his reaction, in the eyes of other Jianghu people, is undoubtedly a kind of timidity.

But it's normal, Tingxuelou is famous, but its overall strength is not strong, and the Keqing who joined it has never been a real master.

It was even more rumored in the Jianghu that the guests in the building were all these women who slept with their bodies, and even discussed in private how many times Nangong Wan slept with others... This is naturally a kind of slander.

The more outstanding a woman is, the more she will receive this kind of slander and slander. Throughout the ages, there is no exception.

Qiao San's actions are not only to show his muscles, to test Tingxuelou's reality, but also to warn "Xu Keqing" to leave as soon as possible, weakening Tingxuelou's strength in disguise.

At this time, the goal was accomplished, he laughed and said "I'm just kidding", then turned around and returned to the seat triumphantly, and the sight around him became playful and complicated.

Hongying was so angry that she almost ran away.

Looking at the landlord who was biting her lip and pretending not to care, and Ji Pingan who looked indifferently, as if she was staying out of the matter, she suddenly felt aggrieved, it was not worth it for her landlord.

The majestic leader of a faction served for a young man, but what did he get in exchange?Being bullied, Ji Sichen didn't help out at all.

Nangong Wan just shook her head, pretending that this episode never happened.

At this time, the old man Tianji in the distance suddenly said:
"The time has come, it's time to start."

In an instant, people's attention was withdrawn, only to hear a woman's voice from the second floor:

"Since the pavilion master has spoken and everyone is present, let's get to the point."

After the words fell, a figure stepped on the stairs and walked down from the second floor with a sound of "da da da".

He was about thirty years old, with a pretty face, and was wearing a dark green satin cheongsam that was different from the current aesthetic style. His legs were parted sideways, but no one dared to take a second look.

Instead, he was attracted by the long golden cigarette pouch in his hand.

Ji Pingan raised his eyebrows slightly.

Jiang Xiaotang!
After many days, the sister of Jiang Huai, the leader of the Wulin League, also returned to Yuhang from Sanhuang County, and held this gathering on behalf of the Wulin League.

With her appearance, all the slightly noisy voices in the theater disappeared, and the martial arts masters including Qiao San, Fo Ye and others all looked serious.

Also being a woman, Jiang Xiaotang's status was in stark contrast to Nangong Wan's.

"Everyone," Jiang Xiaotang stepped onto the stage amidst the sound of pattering footsteps, looking around with a lazy expression:

"The people present here are all rough people, so I will cut to the chase without talking nonsense. The purpose of calling everyone here tonight is naturally for the treasure house of Qianyuan that may be opened in a few days."

"I won't go into details about the legend of this treasure house. It is enough to show your attitude if you are attracted by a piece of news. At the same time, after the investigation by the Qimen monks of the Wulin League, the possibility of opening the treasure house is indeed very high."

After a pause, she took a walk on the stage with her hands behind her back, and the pipe rod slowly turned behind her:

"But... all the leaders present here are all leaders of various factions. They are not pure reckless people. They should all know the possible risks involved in this matter. Let alone the rest, if this treasure house is real, then the city in the past In order to protect the tomb, the formation arranged by Nanwang is certainly true."

Under the stage, Qiao San suddenly said:

"Shopkeeper Jiang, I don't need to go into details. Who here doesn't know the danger? But if you are afraid of the danger, why sit here?"

With a copper bowl turned upside down in front of him, the obese "Buddha" with a bald head and face covered with thick grease smiled and said:
"Joe's words are very true."

The rest of the people also expressed their attitudes, not wanting to miss this opportunity.

Jiang Xiaotang waited for a while, seeing that the sound was slightly lower, and then spoke again:
"It's good for everyone to be prepared for this. However, being willing to take risks does not mean that you will die blindly. I believe that among the major sects present, none of them dare to say that they can break into the treasure house by themselves... This is also the martial arts alliance organization. The reason for this gathering is that the treasures are born and the virtuous live in them, but if you want to pay as little as possible to take out the treasures, you need everyone here to work together..."

Below, Ji Pingan listened for a while and figured out the reason:

Obviously, these sects are not stupid, knowing that they can't handle the danger on their own, so the Wulin League took the lead, twisted everyone into a rope, and went to open the treasure house together.

In this way, the chances of breaking through the defense of the tomb are greater, and the cost is shared, which is undoubtedly much better than all the families chaotically swarming away.

As for whether this loose alliance can maintain its dignity in the face of the temptation to carve up treasures if it is successfully opened, that is another story.

Anyway, it's a big deal to fight and compete with each other at that time, which is much better than being picked by others because the treasure house has not been opened yet, there is internal friction among all parties, or it is not enough to get things done in a mess.

What everyone didn't say is that another benefit of forming an alliance is to fight against other forces.

Everyone is not stupid, who leaked the news of the opening of the treasure house?

Ji Pingan could think that someone was using people from the Jianghu as cannon fodder. These people might not be able to think of the "worldly world" or their deeper purpose, but that doesn't mean they couldn't think of the level of "cannon fodder".

But the bait of the treasure house is too tempting, no one wants to miss it.

That being the case, holding each other together is a way to counteract the dark forces. Who said that if cannon fodder unites, they cannot be hunters?
Even if this level is not considered, does the imperial court and state religion know that the treasure house has opened such a big event?What if you know?It is even more necessary to form a group in order to compete with it.

And tonight is a vote on the alliance and a discussion on the action plan.

As expected, the whole process went extremely smoothly. Jiang Xiaotang took the lead, Elder Tianji assisted, Qiao San and Foye took the lead, and a loose alliance of "opening the underground palace" was established.

Huoju and Bingpo, who were sitting in the corner, watched the whole process.

This made Ji Pingan shake his head secretly, thinking that if this group of people knew that the members of the "Human World" who spread the news would be mixed among them, what kind of mood would it be.

mob.

He evaluates silently.

"Xu Keqing," Nangong Wan suddenly approached at this time and asked:
"Do you think Xuelou will participate in this alliance?"

The woman leaned close, and the fragrant wind penetrated into her nostrils. Ji Pingan took a short distance away, looked at her for a while, and suddenly smiled:

"You can participate, but there is no need to contribute, and you don't have to try too hard. Appropriately showing weakness, or even getting nothing, is not necessarily a bad thing sometimes."

Nangong Wan chewed on these words, thoughtfully.

Ji Pingan thought for a while, then said:
"Come over here."

Nangong Wan was puzzled, but she obediently pressed her. When the two got very close, Ji Pingan whispered something to her.

Then he returned to the normal distance and said with a smile:

"Do you remember? Once you are really in danger, shout out the words I told you, maybe you can save your life."

Nangong Wan's eyes were complicated, she hesitated to speak, she wanted to ask something, but in the end she didn't say anything, she just nodded vigorously.

However, the intimate behavior of the two in the eyes of outsiders completely fell into the eyes of some caring people in the field.

Seeing that the party was over and everyone got up to leave, Qiao San squinted his eyes and looked at the one man and two women who got up and left. Jealousy appeared in his eyes, and then he whispered to his subordinates:
"Follow that Xu Keqing from afar and see where he lives. Tingxuelou is a women's school after all, so he should live alone."

The subordinate asked:

"Then what if he lives with Nangong Wan?"

Qiao San stared at him coldly for a moment, without saying a word, his subordinates were so frightened that their hairs stood on end, and they left in a hurry.

……

Outside the theater, all sects dispersed, Tingxuelou's carriage drove away from the street without making a sound.

After walking for a while, Ji Pingan in the carriage suddenly said:
"I'll go back first, you can leave normally."

After finishing speaking, before Nangong Wan could react, the man in front of her snapped her fingers.

A large hole suddenly opened in the wooden carriage floor under his feet, and it healed immediately, while Ji Pingan sank to the ground while the carriage was galloping with the help of the earth escape.

Not long after, in an alley one street away, Ji Pingan got out of the ground, pulled out the scriptures and shook lightly, and flung out the reluctant Miss Qi Ling who was wearing a wizard costume.

"Help me become invisible." Ji Pingan said.

Jiang Jiang was expressionless, with the attitude of a toolman. He stared at him for a moment, and then reluctantly stretched out his hand to press on his shoulder.

After Ji Ping'an was wiped out of the air bit by bit, he took a step forward, his feet shrinking into inches, and he appeared behind a carriage.

Follow all the way.

This is the vehicle that Huoju and Bingpo ride.
