Chapter 379: Goodbye (Three in One)
The emperor admired Huang Yaoshi very much. Many years ago, he knew that Master Zong Zheng was very respectful to a strange man. Out of curiosity, he took the opportunity to meet him. He was convinced by that one meeting.
Huang Yaoshi was truly an all-rounder. He was well-versed in military tactics, and a wide range of other subjects. His talent alone earned him great admiration from the talented people of Xi State who followed him at the time.
He actually wanted to keep the other party to work in Xi State, but unfortunately, Huang Yaoshi did not have this intention, and he had no choice. As for using force, not to mention that the other party had earth-shaking martial arts and was very difficult to catch, even if you caught him, he would not help you, or even cheat you, and you would not be able to stand it.
The Xi Kingdom is actually quite good. The emperor has been governing the country for so many years and has been quite effective. Although there is a Baichuan Court to manage the people in the martial arts world, it can be regarded as a means for him to leverage power.
Being able to make Baichuanyuan act according to the laws of the court is another form of control. Of course, Li Xiangyi’s reasons are the majority, but he is also using someone else’s strength to defeat him.
The emperor governed quite well, unlike the Song Dynasty, which was very powerful. A country with the strength of Xi could be easily defeated.
However, the Song Dynasty had so many ambitious people and so many struggles. The surrounding countries were also eyeing the country covetously, maintaining a delicate balance. The same was true for all countries in the world. Xi State was relatively peaceful, but it was not easy to come here just because of its geographical advantages. One had to either come directly by sea or cross the desert.
Speaking of returning home for the banquet, the matter of the Xuan Pagoda has been decided. It is to be built. Huang Yaoshi returned to the clan government and was waiting. The reason he came this time was to meet Shen Yujing.
He didn't know where the other party would be, nor would he think about looking for him, because there was a place where he would most likely come. When the Wanhua Alliance was established, as a half-founder, it was unlikely that he would not come.
Nowadays, the entire Xiguo underworld knows that Shen Yujing proposed in Xiangshan that Qiao Wanwan take the lead in establishing a women's mutual aid organization called Wanhua League, and the initial capital will be funded by Shen Yujing.
This is Qiao Wanwan's little trick. You are looking for trouble for me. Even if I am willing, can you still run away? Of course, she also relied on Shen Qingzhou's reputation. Others don't know, but Qiao Wanwan, who was hugged by him all the way up the mountain, knows that Shen Qingzhou is too good at hiding his shortcomings. He said that he has high light skills, but if he doesn't have low internal strength, he can't lead people up such a high mountain without taking a breath.
And she could also feel the ice and fire emanating from Shen Qingzhou's body when he practiced martial arts. If a dog's martial arts skills are so high, then your master's skills must be even higher.
As for what he once said about Dahuang having an owner, Qiao Wanwan didn't believe it. Later, news came about a battle at Tianji Villa, where Shen Qingzhou and Di Feisheng fought to a draw but no winner was decided. This greatly surprised Qiao Wanwan, so she immediately increased the scale of publicity.
She had thought that Shen Qingzhou was good at martial arts, but she didn't expect that he could compare with Di Feisheng. Di Feisheng and Li Xiangyi were in two different dimensions in the Xi country's martial arts world compared to other martial arts masters. What a surprise.
Huang Yaoshi was also waiting for Shen Qingzhou. He was not trying to avenge Zong Zheng Mingzhu. How could you have the nerve to ask others to avenge you for what you did? He just wanted to meet this person.
Li Lianhua met with Xuanyuan Xiao, but Xuanyuan Xiao had his own plans and did not take Li Lianhua's reminder to heart. He knew that the craftsman was Shan Gudao, but he wanted to reap the benefits.
That night, an incident happened in the palace. The four craftsmen brought into the palace by Shan Gudao all died. Li Lianhua was at the crime scene. He had discovered a clue that these four people were actually eunuchs who were driven out of the palace more than ten years ago. This time they entered the palace under the pretext of building the Xuan Pagoda to find the Xuan Pagoda which was a hundred years ago.
More than ten years ago, five of them accidentally entered the Xuan Tower and took out some gold, silver and jewelry. However, the first person who came out died, so they thought they were ghosts. Later, they were discovered by the guards. They had gold and silver that were hundreds of years old, but there was no shortage of wealth in the palace, so they were just driven out of the palace.
None of them mentioned the matter of the Xuan Pagoda, and the palace was not aware of it either. They didn't know how Shan Gudao found out about it and specifically found them to do something.
That night, several people were drinking and chatting, and they died for unknown reasons. From the scene, it looked like they were bitten to death by a monster. However, Li Lianhua discovered something was wrong and arrived at the scene first, so she was detained as the murderer.
Shan Gudao had a backup plan. He wanted to have his own people kill Shan Gudao while he was imprisoned, but Fang Duobing arrived in time with an imperial decree. Fang Duobing found the princess and asked the queen mother for an imperial decree.
On the second day, Li Lianhua and Fang Duobing investigated the case together and found out that several craftsmen were bitten to death because they were poisoned. The medicine was on the craftsmen's map. The craftsmen were poisoned when they looked at the drawings, and then were bitten to death one by one. With the help of the residual smell, the fox spirit came out, it was a dog after all, and found the place where the smell pointed.
After opening the mechanism, a two-headed magical monster named Tianhou appeared, but it was killed by Fang Duobing with a sword. It was discovered that they were actually two mountain cats tied together, looking like a monster.
Li Lianhua saw Fang Duobing's attack, and also realized that his martial arts had greatly improved. Before, Fang Duobing entered the Qianjun Guiyuan Formation, and all the medicinal power in his body was accumulated. With the skills taught by Li Xiangyi, he created his own skills, the Duochou Gongzi Sword, and was able to go into battle. The last level was Li Xiangyi's master, and he was able to defeat Li Xiangyi's master.
Among all the local martial artists in Xi country, he is the best except Li Xiangyi and Di Feisheng.
The two men found out that the person who could kill four craftsmen must be someone related to them. Finally, they found Liu Kehe from the Ministry of Works, but when they arrived there, they discovered that the other person had committed suicide.
He also discovered something wrong with his accessories, which was a life and death contract with the royal family. Then, through clues, he deduced the location of the Paradise Tower.
The Paradise Tower was built in the manner of an iron mountain collapse. As long as the mechanism is broken, the entire tower will directly flow back into the ground. It is quite magical.
Li Lianhua and Fang Duobing found the location of the tower and also found the Rama Ding, right next to a pile of bones.
However, the national teacher suddenly appeared and snatched away Feng Alu's head, because Li Lianhua said that the Karma Fire Demon was in the head, but in fact, it was still in the Rama Ding.
Then, Li Lianhua and Fang Duobing saw a big secret. The skeleton man was Feng Alu, the Nanyin magician who entered the palace a hundred years ago and wanted to assassinate.
A hundred years ago, he wanted to use the karma fire to harm Emperor Guangqing, but he happened to meet Concubine Ying who was bathing, and was bewitched by her. Then he forgot his purpose and was willing to be a tool to be incubated.
When the child was born, Concubine Ying ordered the mechanism to be cut off directly, and the Paradise Tower was hung upside down into the ground and disappeared overnight. Concubine Ying became the queen as she wished and deleted all the information about the Paradise Tower.
Fang Duobing and Li Lianhua both knew that something big was going to happen. They both knew that this meant that the royal bloodline had been cut off starting from Emperor Guangqing. This secret could not be exposed. If it was exposed, Xi State would be in chaos.
Then, he felt someone coming in and guessed that it was someone who discovered that the Fire Mother was missing. Fang Duobing found the mechanism by which Concubine Ying and Feng Alu were having an affair, but at the exit, he found that the Emperor and a group of people from the Imperial City Bureau were already waiting there, and the National Master had reported them.
The emperor was furious. What was the purpose of digging a tunnel in the inner palace? He also saw the Rama Ding, which was taken away directly by Xuanyuan Xiao.
Later, he learned that this was the Paradise Tower and went in alone with Xuanyuan Xiao. After coming out, he felt dizzy and almost couldn't stand. He already knew the truth and couldn't accept it.
Then we have to arrest Li Lianhua and Fang Duobing. They came out from inside and know the truth. This secret cannot and is not allowed to be exposed.
But Li Lianhua and Fang Duobing were not stupid. They knew that Shan Gudao was eyeing them covetously, and it was obvious that they had a conspiracy, so they ran away with the help of the princess.
Xuanyuan Xiao was also entangled by the Three Buddha Saints. Someone reported that the queen mother was abducted, so he went to rescue her. However, the so-called number one in the Ten Thousand Books was not his opponent and was just fooled. The so-called queen mother was the national teacher, who caught her off guard and severely injured her with a palm. Then Shan Gudao appeared and slapped her hard, leaving her with no power to fight back.
They didn't know that in secret, several other people had noticed the changes in the palace, and one of the figures returned to a house.
"Brother Yue, what happened?" The three women asked anxiously when they saw Yue Tianmin returning. The palace was deploying troops, and Yue Tianmin went to check it out. It was not a difficult task for him.
"I don't know what Fang Duobing and Li Lianhua discovered. The emperor wanted to capture them, but they ran away. It doesn't matter. It has nothing to do with us." He didn't know about the Jile Tower. After all, he was just gathering information.
Yue Tianmin stayed in Xi country for a few days and found out that Xi country was indeed not strong, mainly because it had few masters. In the Ming Dynasty, it was very difficult for him to enter the palace so easily. No wonder Shen Yujing looked down on Xi country's martial arts. In the past few days, he also learned about some of Shen Yujing's doings in Xi country. His three confidantes told him that they had been spending more time with Qiao Wanwan in the past few days.
As for Li Lianhua and Fang Duobing, Fang Duobing went to Tianji Villa to report the news. Now, it is no longer a matter of the martial arts world, but involves the imperial court.
Tianji Villa.
"Master, there are troops from the imperial court who want to besiege us." Tianji Villa discovered the clues, mainly because they wanted to use military force, so they couldn't hide it from others. What's more, there was only one way to Tianji Villa.
"Notify everyone to leave through the secret passage and notify Hero Shen." He Xiaohui also made a prompt decision. She did not wait for anything else and left first. In a head-on confrontation, the martial arts sects could not defeat the imperial army. Baichuanyuan, especially Li Xiangyi, was too strong at the time. He went straight into the palace and defeated Xuanyuan Xiao.
Then the emperor also used Baichuanyuan to restrain the people in the martial arts world, and such a martial arts court appeared. Tianji Villa was broken up into small pieces, and a group of people moved ten miles away. They also found that the court troops were besieged, and there was no direct dialogue, nor did they come to the door.
"Master He, don't worry too much. There may be some misunderstanding." Shen Qingzhou said to He Xiaohui.
"I'm not worried. The master must have his own plans for doing things. I'm just afraid that Xiaobao and Mr. Shen may not be able to accompany you on this trip to the capital." He Xiaohui was worried about this. Her husband was the Minister of Revenue and had been an official for many years. He would not do such a thing. Moreover, she certainly could not participate in the establishment of the Wanhua League.
"I think Ms. Qiao can understand it." Shen Qingzhou said. He actually knew what happened.
It can be said that he only had a vague understanding of the previous plot and had seen some fragments, but he knew the plot of the ending.
If the original procedure had been followed, it should have been discovered that the emperor was not of genuine royal blood, and Li Lianhua and Fang Duobing would have been arrested, but they ran away.
One day later, Fang Duobing came. Shen Qingzhou did not eavesdrop on what they said. He just stayed for an incense stick and then left. He also left with the martial arts master Zhan Yunfei, because he was afraid that something might happen to Fang Duobing.
Fang Duobing came this time to notify Tianji Villa to hide, but Tianji Hall was well-informed and had already hidden, and someone blocked the way to prevent others from approaching. That was how Fang Duobing was found.
Fang Duobing told He Xiaohui that Minister Fang had been taken away by the Imperial City Bureau, and asked her to contact the princes and nobles in the court to protect Minister Fang. He sent people to guard outside the city, and if it really didn't work, he would plan to jailbreak him.
However, He Xiaohui pointed out that Minister Fang would rather die than bear the name of a traitor, so he should not be impulsive.
"Master Shen, can you have a drink?" Watching Fang Duobing leave, He Xiaohui found Shen Yujing, who was basking in the sun on the roof.
"Yes." Shen Qingzhou could see that He Xiaohui had been pretending to be calm in front of Fang Duobing, but now she seemed to be drinking to drown her sorrows.
She was not worried about herself, but about the Fang family, worried that Fang Duo would be ill and targeted by the court. "Master Shen, I don't know how glorious the Ming Dynasty is." He Xiaohui raised a glass. Tianji Villa also has good wine, although it is not as rare as Shen Qingzhou's wine.
"It's just an enlarged version of Xi Kingdom." Shen Qingzhou understood that Tianjitang would not want to develop in Ming Dynasty.
But you are also right. As the helmsman of Tianjitang, you have to consider the fallback. Moreover, the Fang family has a very deep relationship with Datong Money House, so the fallback is not difficult to find. However, it is impossible to do the same as Xiguo in Ming Dynasty.
Don't say that you are outsiders. Even if you have complete strength, you are still far behind in the Ming Dynasty. But there will be no problem with wealth.
Here, Fang Duobing went to find Li Lianhua, and then found bloodstains in the Lianhua Tower. Knowing that something had happened, he hurried to the capital. He had already guessed that it was either the work of Shan Gudao or Jiao Liqiao.
Nowadays, all the righteous people in Jianghu have gathered in the capital, because the famous heroine Qiao is going to establish the Wanhua League. Several deans of Baichuan Academy have gone there in person, after all, they have a pretty good personal relationship with her.
Ten miles outside the capital, there is a huge mansion, which is different from the one in the capital. This is the main base for this meeting. If it were really in the capital, even if you dared to come, the court would not be at ease. What are you guys from the underworld doing gathering in the capital?
In the courtyard, many martial arts sects and heroes who had arrived in advance came to help. As long as there were many women, there was no need to worry about a lack of men. What's more, it was a big event in the martial arts world, and if they helped, it could also be a topic of conversation.
The place with the most people coming is Xiao Zijin's Wanshengdao. After all, Qiao Wanwan is his goddess, and this will never change.
In the reception hall.
"What is happening in the capital now? Those ministers and their families can be arrested or driven away." Ji Hanfo said worriedly.
Several deans and Xiao Zijin were discussing this matter. They were considered the leaders of the righteous underworld. Xuan Zheng and the others had not come yet. As for Qiao Wanwan, she was still receiving friends from the underworld.
A lot of things have happened in the capital city in the past two days. The Imperial City Bureau has been arresting people, causing panic among the people. I don’t know if it will have an impact on the martial arts world.
"Alliance Leader Xiao, several deans, please give orders immediately and have the entire Baichuan Academy work together to find Li Lianhua." Fang Duobing ran into the hall in a hurry. He actually thought about whether he should ask Qiao Wanwan for help, but he thought that the Wanhua Alliance was just a start-up and was completely useless. They were all weak women, so he had to ask Baichuan Academy for help.
"What happened to Li Lianhua?" Shi Shui asked.
"There is only a pool of blood left in the Lotus Tower, and Li Lianhua is missing." Fang Duobing said.
"Young Master Fang, there are dozens of people disappearing in the martial arts world every day. Why should Baichuan Academy have to do its best to search for Li Lianhua? Baichuan Academy is the martial arts court, and it does big things." Xiao Zijin refused directly, even though he was not the dean.
He had to refuse, after all, he knew that Li Lianhua was Li Xiangyi. After Li Xiangyi revealed his identity, he did not give up Li Lianhua's identity. He asked Li Lianhua out in the name of Qiao Wanwan to prove his guess.
Li Xiangyi is his nightmare, he is jealous of Li Xiangyi, it's that simple.
"Finding Li Lianhua is the top priority. Shan Gudao has evil ambitions and only Li Lianhua can stop him, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous." Fang Duobing said anxiously.
"Don't exaggerate. There have been rumors in the martial arts world that Shan Gudao faked his death and led people who had rebelled against Wansheng Dao to besiege Tianji Hall. But this is your personal grudge. Why bother involving the safety of the world?" Xiao Zijin said.
“I don’t know whether you are really confused or just pretending to be confused. Shan Gudao faked his death for ten years, joined forces with Jiao Liqiao, and won over a group of evil masters. His strength has surpassed that of the righteous.
What's more terrifying is that he has obtained the Karma Fire. As long as the time is right, he can control anyone to become his puppet. Do you think you can stay out of it?
Everyone, I said that the heaven and earth are our witnesses. Only by finding Li Lianhua can we stop Shan Gudao." Fang Duobing said.
"Why do you say that only by finding Li Lianhua can we stop Shan Gudao?" Ji Hanfo stood up and asked with a serious look in his eyes. In fact, he had already guessed it.
"Because Li Lianhua is Shan Gudao's junior fellow apprentice and the leader of the Sigu Sect, Li Xiangyi." Fang Duobing said in a deep voice.
"Are you telling the truth? Li Lianhua is really the leader?" Shi Shui immediately stood up and said.
"What nonsense. Li Xiangyi is such a person, how could he be a country bumpkin like Li Lianhua? In this world, except Fang Duobing, who can prove that Li Lianhua is Li Xiangyi? Not to mention, with Li Xiangyi's martial arts skills, how could he be caught?" Xiao Zijin was very selfish.
"I'll help him prove it. I have a ready-made method here." After Zhan Yunfei appeared, he was obviously different. He was ranked fifth on the list of ten thousand people and was also a famous hero in the world. When several deans saw him, they had to call him a hero.
Zhan Yunfei looked at Fang Duobing, who understood immediately. He broke a vase and took out an unopened flower. He circulated his internal energy and the flower bloomed immediately. This was Yangzhou Man, an internal skill full of vitality.
"Yangzhou slowness, it's really Yangzhou slowness." Several people recognized it at once. This was a phenomenon that could only be caused by Yangzhou slowness. Fang Duobing also said that it was Li Lianhua who taught him this when he was injured.
"If it really is the sect leader, then we have to save him." Dean Bai, who was the most flexible, spoke up.
"Even if it's Li Xiangyi, it won't work. Baichuanyuan is a martial arts court. They are concerned about national affairs. If they mobilize all the people to look for someone missing, wouldn't their fellow martial artists laugh at them if this gets out?
What's more, whether this is Yangzhou Man is another matter, Shen Yujing also has similar martial arts, and everyone saw it when Ah Wan did it. "Xiao Zijin has already taken charge of Baichuanyuan.
"It will be a joke indeed. People will laugh at us for being hypocrites who watch others in danger without helping." Suddenly, a female voice was heard, and Qiao Wanwan appeared, looking at Xiao Zijin with disappointment.
He clearly knew that Li Lianhua was Li Xiangyi, but now, Li Lianhua's life or death was unknown, and he actually wanted to stop the rescue. Qiao Wanwan was very disappointed. She agreed to marry Xiao Zijin and actually had feelings for him.
Their wedding was held, but Xiao Zijin disappointed her time and time again. Now, jealousy has blinded his heart.
"Awan." Xiao Zijin had a bad feeling.
"I really didn't expect that you would become what you are now, full of talk about benevolence and righteousness, but full of malicious calculations. What big events in the martial arts world? Isn't the benevolence and righteousness in this world just the accumulation of small things?
Even if the person captured today was just a peddler, would we just let him lose his life just because he is not important? Moreover, I have known for a long time that this is your excuse.
You, the Wansheng Dao, can ignore it, but I, the Wanhua League, cannot. In the name of the Wanhua League, I would like to invite all the righteous heroes to discuss how to fight against the evil.
If I knew this, I shouldn't have given you a chance, so let's just say goodbye." The last sentence was said to Xiao Zijin. Qiao Wanwan left very decisively. Xiao Zijin knew that this woman had nothing to do with him anymore.
Ji Hanfu sighed. Baichuanyuan began to become desolate. Looking at those people from Baichuanyuan who used to be members of Sigumen and admired Li Xiangyi and Sigumen and joined the Jianghu Criminal Hall, who were a little confused, they began to doubt the existence of Baichuanyuan.
……
"Sisters, I have a favor to ask of you." Qiao Wanwan was not lying. Her appeal was terrifying. However, after issuing the call to the martial arts world, she immediately found several sisters she had met during this period.
Their martial arts skills are not much inferior to hers. The most they have is no experience in fighting. After all, they are still young. However, from some information they say, it can be known that although Uncle Master Yue Tianmin looks very young, his skills are terrifying. She needs reinforcements.
She was extremely worried. From the moment she found out that Li Lianhua was captured, she knew that Li Lianhua was hiding something from her. He was no longer the invincible Li Xiangyi, and his body had not recovered.
"Sister, we support you. Brother Yue has also found out something. Shishou Village is the testing ground of the Nanyin people. It's either Shan Gudao or Jiao Liqiao. Brother Yue came here to find out the truth for Kunlun and he will not ignore it." After knowing Qiao Wanwan's request, several girls said.
"Then thank you, Young Master Yue." Qiao Wanwan was delighted. Yue Tianmin could make them trust him so much. Jin Youdao and Lu Jianchi were both masters of the younger generation, but they respected Yue Tianmin so much, which was not achieved by seniority alone.
Baichuan Academy also began to take action, which represented a coalition of the white ways. Before the Wanhua League was even established, a big plan had been formed.
At this moment, Jiao Liqiao's residence was also decorated with lights and colors. Jiao Liqiao got Li Xiangyi from Yun Biqiu. Jiao Liqiao also planned to fulfill her dream and marry Di Feisheng. She really liked him.
But she didn't know that Li Lianhua used some tricks to find Di Feisheng and stole the key, and the two of them hid in Di Feisheng's wedding room.
Di Feisheng was indeed tortured terribly. He was stabbed with a knife every day in an attempt to make him surrender, but unfortunately Di Feisheng just refused to surrender.
Di Feisheng took advantage of the opportunity to recover his strength, and with Li Xiangyi's power consumption slow, the fusion of the two top internal forces allowed Di Feisheng to break through and then stand up again, entering the eighth level of Beifeng Baiyang.
Di Feisheng's martial arts were also self-created. He followed the path of fighting to support fighting. After breaking through the eighth level of Beifeng Baiyang, his martial arts improved greatly. Li Lianhua knew that he is now on par with himself ten years ago.
Ten years ago, even though Li Xiangyi was poisoned by the green tea, he and Di Feisheng still fought to a draw. At that time, Di Feisheng was not as good as Li Xiangyi.
After Di Feisheng's martial arts were restored, neither of them was in a hurry anymore. As long as they were careful, they could go anywhere in the world. Di Feisheng had suffered several losses at the hands of Jiao Liqiao, so he remembered this.
