Chapter 56:

Contact matters

People in the Jianghu


How could the "Demon Cult" be a semi-secret organization at that time, acting treacherously and with absolutely poisonous means, never leaving a living mouth, which made people feel insecure. Without exception, the "Demon Cult" feared like a tiger, and few people talked about their whereabouts. In this way, the two brothers, who have been wandering the Jianghu for many years, only know some gossip about the "Demon Cult" and have hardly met the disciples of the "Demon Cult". Their whereabouts are secret, and others don't know their identities. Few Jianghu people know their true faces, let alone their names. Even if you occasionally show your chivalry and justice, you are also dressing up in disguise, just like a meteor in the dark night, which will disappear in a flash

It was not until Luo Tianqiu made a big noise in the "Danxin Stronghold" and stirred up the Wulin that rumors about the "Demon Cult" became popular in the Jianghu. They also found out about the "Demon Cult". People seemed to be less afraid of the "Demon Cult" and talked about it from time to time. They don't know who Luo Tianqiu is and where the "Danxin Stronghold" is located. They really have no way to go.

On that day, the two brothers walked to the west of Mount Funiu, and overheard someone having a picnic in the woods, which attracted their attention.

They lurked in the grass and saw four men in gray sitting in the forest chatting.

One person said, "The hall leader is sure to go to Liubo Temple this time. He sent us to meet him halfway!"

"That's good!" said another man, "It's not our business to get there anyway. A few 'Yingbo Gate' ladies are afraid that the hall leader can clean up alone!

The third person said, "Not necessarily. I heard that the head of the 'Yingbo Gate' asked for the tasteless' Yingbo Gate 'style."

The previous man said, "Ha, you are very careful. Can I, the 'Demon Sect', the 'Sparrow Hall Leader', the 'Regional Magician', Sikong Tong, have no choice but to be a small 'Yingbo Sect' leader. How can I dominate the Wulin! Brother, don't say such bereavement words again.

Let the hall master know that your life is over! "

The fourth man said, "Brother Wang's words are reasonable! However, if someone helps with boxing, it will be another matter."

The man who was called Brother Wang said, "You mean Luo Tianchou?! No way. Our messenger is known as' ghost shadow 'and is well informed. Where is Luo Tianchou? How can he not know!"

The Chopper brothers were very happy to hear that they were from the "Demon Sect". It is really "there is no place to break the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it". Today, they finally got hit by it. We should see what real skills the people of the "Demon Sect" have. The two brothers looked at each other and smiled, but did not hide. Both of them appeared in the hiding place.

The four sitting people heard footsteps and jumped up quickly.

Chopping Yuxuan asked, "Are you from the 'Demon Sect'?"

The man surnamed Wang stared at them and said, "So what? Do you want to find me unlucky?"

"I think so," said Chuehyuxuan, "I wonder if you can sell face to our brother?"

"I'm afraid they are tired of living, so let's send you on the road!" shouted Wang.

"Are you four fighting side by side or alone?" Chopping Rain Pavilion asked.

The man surnamed Wang laughed and said, "Ha, there is no shortage of etiquette in the Jianghu. Please draw a line."

Chopping Rain Pavilion said, "How about playing with us?"

The man surnamed Wang said, "Well, you can do it!"

The man who spoke earlier waved his hand and said, "Slow down! Brother Wang, I'm itching. Give this boy to my younger brother!"

"OK! I'm the most open minded person. I don't eat heartsnatchers."

The man rushed forward without saying a word. The chest is a long fist move called "Poisonous Snake Spits out the Message". The Chopping Rain Pavilion was not in a hurry. With his hands together, a note of "Boy Worship Guanyin" came forward. When they took over, both were mercilessly killing.

After several interviews, it was hard to tell. The "Dragon King's Palm" was launched in the rain cutting pavilion. It was like a dragon out of the sea, the palm was like a mountain, and the palm wind was rustling. It went straight to the key part of the opponent to greet him. The man's kung fu also has its uniqueness. When he saw that Chopping Rain Pavilion was powerful, he did not dare to take it hard. He dodged to fight. When he saw the move, he sent out several different moves from time to time and hit at the direction that Chopping Rain Pavilion could not imagine. Chopping Rain Pavilion knew that he was meant to irritate himself and wait for work. How could he let his plot succeed? He knew that the best way to fight was to keep his mind stable, but his hands were not slow. He was calm and open in the middle, flying like a swallow, forcing his opponent into a dilemma. It was impossible to attack, defenceless and clumsy.

After 50 strokes, the man has fallen into the wind. The left hand move of "golden dragon wagging its tail" sweeps across the rain pavilion, the man "golden turtle shrinking its head" moves to the right, and the other move of "drunken man toasting" deflects to the wind. The man has arrived at his front, and a sharp cry, such as a thunderbolt on a sunny day, a spring thunder on his tongue, an elbow strike on his left hand, a straight arm, a backhand palm, five fingers closed, and a palm instead of a move, A note of "flying clouds and electricity", one move and three moves, all at once. The body method is exquisite and fast as lightning. Just listen to "Peng"

With a sound, the man's body was like the wind and the leaves, and he retreated two feet away, his sternum was broken, and he could not live!

This group of people were originally strong bandits and thieves outside the evil spirits. When the victory was in hand, they pretended to behave fairly. Once defeated, they had already revealed their true colors. The three of them roared at the same time, each armed with his own weapon, and all rushed to the chopping rain pavilion, trying to kill the chopping rain pavilion immediately.

They are fast, and it is faster to cut the rain. He looked at his brother fighting with others, but the corner of his eye glanced at the three people beside him. Seeing his brother's victory in hand, he had already held the judge's pen with both hands from his sleeve to prevent unexpected events. When they wielded their swords, a pair of his judges' pens had already been greeted, and the two strokes were repeatedly waved, and three moves were removed in a row. The time slowed down, and a pair of hand hooks of the Chopping Rain Pavilion had been released.

If we fight alone, the three thieves will probably stay in the world for a long time, half an hour, and when we fight in a group, although it is a three-to-two move, which has the upper hand in the number of people, what's the difference in the face of more people in the "sun and moon".

Chop the rain pavilion with two hooks, and then quickly wave. The guard hook is a move to lock the opponent's weapon. If the three of them work together to form the "Four Elephant Sword Array", or can take several moves under the combination of "the sun and the moon compete for glory". At this time, a corner of the square sword array was missing and the door was open. The brothers of the chop family drove straight in. The three long swords were held in the lock of the swift wind in the chopping rain pavilion, and they could not hold their swords to breathe. The judge's pen fell on them like a torrential rain.

If a person competes with Chop Yuxuan and gets it right, his two magistrates' pens will be destroyed immediately.

Now there were three people. He acted according to the situation. He had already hung the number at the "Huagai acupoint", "Lingtai acupoint" and "Quchi acupoint" in different parts of the three people. Two people fell to the ground with a bang, and one of them released his sword. Yuting is irritable. He has a killing chance in his heart. In addition, the three people are treacherous and rush to fight together. At this time, he is even more dutiful. But as soon as the man's sword was released, his head flew away like a ball.

"Why don't you stay alive?"

"Never again!" Rain Pavilion grinned.

Chopping Yuxuan smiled awkwardly and shook his head, "How can we find Liubo Temple?"

His words are not unreasonable. In front of him, there are deep forests and dense grass in the wild. I can't even find a house when I ask for information.

Chopping Rain Pavilion said, "Brother, let's see what characteristics these evil thieves have. It's easy to recognize them in the future."

Yuxuan felt that his words were reasonable. He hurriedly went to look at the four corpses and found that there was a plum blossom bead sand mark on their left back.

"It seems that the plum blossom bead sand mark is the symbol of the 'Demon Cult' disciples," said Chop Yuxuan.

The two men looked for a while and walked eastward along the path. After about an hour, they came to the edge of a forest and saw three roads in front of them at the same time. They didn't know which way to choose. While hesitating and hesitating, I suddenly heard a loud cry in the forest: "What do you do?"

The brothers had no time to answer. There were already two tall men in strong green clothes standing in front of them, glaring at them. One of them asked, "Are you two going to Liubo Temple?"

Chopping Rain Pavilion hurriedly said, "Exactly. I don't know the way, please guide me."

Another man sneered, "Well, I will guide you to hell!"

The sound of the word "fu" is still in the air, and people have come to the front. I saw that the visitor grabbed the front door of the chopping rain pavilion with both hands, and pointed at it like a steel hook. The force was fierce, and the wind made a sound of "hissing".

Chopping the Rain Pavilion dare not neglect it. He secretly uses his internal power to push out his two palms. His move, "Little Sister Pushing", seems to be insipid, but actually contains internal power. The man knows it well, and the parallel finger is the palm. Next, the two palms are connected, and the "Peng" sound is loud, which makes both of them move backward. The man already knows that the opponent's internal power is above him, and does not fight hard, but still makes the "Eagle Claw" attack with a ring. This person's technique is strange. His moves are not old, and they are used frequently. He shows up around the chopping rain pavilion, waves and grasps the points, and his body method is nimble. The chopping rain pavilion only feels that there are many fingers close to him, which is empty and solid. It is difficult to deal with. He can only sink into the elixir field, hold the yuan and guard the one, and listen to all directions in six ways, respond to all changes with changelessness, and move with stillness. The other party can't do anything for a moment.

Chopping Yuxuan over there was also a hard fight with another man. This man has a combination of fists and palms. His hard kung fu is superior to that of his peers. He is powerful and powerful, and his palms are very powerful. This man's moves are calm and agile, and he can fight with each fist and palm slowly and cleanly.

Chopping Yuxuan launched his school's unique skill, "Dragon King's Palm", and it was exactly the same. However, the man is experienced enough to know that his internal power may not be able to fight against the Yuxuan. He is not willing to take risks easily and is not eager to fight with his hands. He just cuts and cuts horizontally and vertically to avoid reality and attack in the void. The fists and palms hit the right point. It seems to others that the two are not fighting for life and death, but are comparing moves and martial arts. However, the competition between these two people is much more dangerous than that of the rain pavilion. Both of them are true to each other, and their strength is through both hands. Each move is unambiguous. As long as there is a slight carelessness, life and death will be decided.

Chopping Yuxuan knew that he was using "fatigue tactics", which consumed a lot of real strength. He found out his skills and tried to succeed, so he also played steadily. Both sides were not eager to achieve success, and slowly fought in a state of glue.

Chopping Yuxuan suddenly thought that his opponent's "sticking" to him this time did not seem to be waiting for work. Recalling the previous conversation of the four men in gray, we can judge that "Liubo Temple" is the residence of "Yingbo Gate", and they are all women. Their martial arts are not weak. It is conceivable that their hall leader is higher than them. In that case, the "Yingbo Gate" is unlucky. They have to rush to "Liubo Temple" for rescue. In addition, once the "Liubo Temple" has an accident, when their hands arrive, their martial arts will be so high that they can't beat four hands with two fists. They will be outnumbered and trapped by the other side.

The previous four people and the two people in front of them are the backup along the way. In this way of thinking, the master who could not help but fight with him could not be better. In this way of thinking, Chop Yuxuan is more or less distracted. The opponent is not easy, especially the mind. Look at this fight. There are hidden murders everywhere. How can you kill Yuxuan with two minds! The other side made a "hole in the sky and Buddha's land" in the void and hurt the killer. After all, Chop Yuxuan is the descendant of Zen Master Guangyuan, the Great Xia of a generation. Seeing that the enemy was unable to prevent the attack with all his strength, he immediately refreshed himself and launched his school's unique skill, using a move of "a spring river with thousands of willows". With both hands waving, the wind blowing, and the shadow of the palm like a mountain, he broke down the momentum. The strength of the palm was just fierce, which was beyond the expectation of the opponent. His hands were sore and he stepped back five steps in a row.

Chopping Rain Xuan was decisive and did not attack. He flashed and was close to Chopping Rain. He shouted, "Change your heart in one suit!"

The two brothers understood each other, and immediately cooperated with each other. The power of the "one-piece palms" of the Pearl River Union Wall is far less than that of the two people in green. Face to face with Chop Yuxuan. The last move is to throw it with all one's strength, but it is resolved by Chop Yuxuan's unique move. It has really reached the dilemma of seeing it with a dagger. They had never dreamed that their opponents had more powerful opponents who were leading them. They were already scared out of their wits and at a loss. When he took over, he took the opposite measures, but it was only three moves and two moves. The sternum of the man who was facing him with a "cloud hand" was broken, the viscera was displaced, and he fell to the ground and died. The man who fought with the Chopping Rain Pavilion was even worse. With a brush of his left hand, the rain pavilion was struck by his right hand.

In this way, they unintentionally helped Yingbomen and eliminated the ideas received by the "Demon Sect" along the way.

"Yingbo Gate" naturally doesn't worry about "Demon Sect" to retaliate, and "Demon Sect" doesn't know his "Golden Bird Hall" and "Wild Goose Singing Hall"

Where did the two hall leaders go.

Chopping Rain Pavilion looked at his brother and smiled, "I forgot to leave a life again!"

Chopping Yuxuan said, "Go quickly, it's too late, I'm afraid it's too late!" Then they started their lightness skills and rushed eastward.

If they were heading north, they would encounter the little girl, Long Ling, who was anxious to find Luo Tianqiu. However, they went straight east and missed Long Ling. They also failed to find the "Liubo Temple".

The two people rushed for two hours, where they saw the shadow of "Liubo Temple". They turned to the north again, just a big roundabout, bypassing the "Liubo Temple". They walked for another hour and stopped to inquire. It was not far from Chengdu.

They were very upset and simply headed west. When they arrived in Kaifeng that day, they asked secretly, but they didn't find any information. After spending some days in Chengdu, the two brothers moved westward and thought of "Danxin Stronghold" to find Great Xia Luo.

My brother seems to be impatient. He walked and played lazily all the way, and went sightseeing everywhere. When southerners come to the north, many things feel new. Although I have been in the Central Plains for more than ten years, I still feel curious and forget the serious matters for a while.

On that day, they were walking on the main road and saw a jujube forest beside the road. The rain pavilion is curious and wants to visit the jujube forest. Through the jujube forest, they came to a hill, and suddenly saw a girl in red passing down the hill. At a casual glance, Chuehyuxuan cried out in surprise. What do you think? He saw the plum blossom bead sand mark on the back of the woman's bare hand, and his heart of revenge suddenly increased. He hurriedly said to his brother carefully:

"The thief Po Lang is a member of the 'Demon Cult'. Why don't we follow her and go to the 'Demon Cult' general altar to explore the truth?"

"That's a good idea!" Yuting nodded and agreed. "Let's follow the thief's wife to death."

This woman is the disciple of Naotai, Hongling Nv. She was defeated by Luo Tianqiu and desperately wanted to escape back to the main altar of the "Demon Cult" in Bashan.

Seeing her discomfiture, Chop Yuxuan knew that she was beaten to pieces. Chopping Rain Pavilion intends to capture her and interrogate her.

Yuxuan hurriedly said, "No way! A woman who dares to run around alone is not an ordinary person. Maybe she is the leader of the 'Demon Cult'. If we want to catch her, she has to fight with us desperately. She is still trapped! If we fail, we will kill her again!"

The rain pavilion nodded: "Well, it makes sense! Even if you catch her, it will be inconvenient for men and women to be different. I'm afraid it will cause trouble."

"Well, let's just stare at her like this. Seeing that she is walking in the wilderness, we won't be afraid of her running away, and don't worry about causing people to doubt." said Chop Yuxuan.

After such a discussion, the brothers decided to follow her secretly. Unexpectedly, tracking this woman is not so easy. She always changes her appearance, sometimes she makes up for women, sometimes she dresses as men, sometimes she dresses as an old woman in fashion, sometimes she dresses as an old man in a slot. She threw her away after a slight neglect. Fortunately, they had excellent lightness skills and sensitive ears and eyes. They were neither lost nor detected by her. In this way, I followed her to Bazhong.

However, when people came to Bazhong, she lost track. Mingming is wandering in front of a temple, but no one can see her in the blink of an eye. She can't find her trace all the time.

"I guess this temple is one of their liaison offices," Chuehyuxuan speculated.

"That's what you're talking about," Xu Fu said.

"Exactly." Zhan Yuxuan said, "The temple is not full of incense. There are only two monks who don't close at night. When Brother Xu came in just now, we thought you were their eyeliner. We wanted to catch you alive, and asked why. Because you have been here more than once, we have followed you for several days."

Taoist Shunzhu laughed and said, "Ha, I don't know you until I fight!" Then he asked Yuxuan, "Have you ever explored the situation in this temple?"

"Yes," said Yuxuan, "there are only two monks, old and young, in the temple. The young monk just cleans the hall all day and serves the old monk.

The old monk almost ignored anything. When we put on incense, he was dejected and rarely spoke a day. In the evening, he went into his meditation room to chant sutras and never left the door. "

"Have you entered his meditation room?" asked Taoist Shunzhu.

"No," said Yuxuan, "the door of his meditation room is always closed. It seems that there is a secret lock inside and there is no window to peep around."

Xu Fu said, "If we talk here, will he eavesdrop?"

"No," said Taoist Shunzhu, shaking his head repeatedly. "When you fight, I have already patrolled the back. The old monk is reading the Diamond Sutra while the young monk is meditating."

"Did the elder get on his roof?" Xu Fu asked.

"Isn't that to scare the grass and scare the snake?! I only listen to the sound on the ground two or three feet away from his meditation room." said Taoist Shunzhu.

Taoist Shunzhu has profound skills, and his ears and eyes are very comparable. He can listen to the sound on the ground, and he can detect any small movement around him in a distance of several meters. Therefore, Taoist Shunzhu's assertion that there was no eavesdropping was very reasonable.

"When did the elder come here?" Xu Fu asked the old man.

"I came here yesterday, and I couldn't find you anywhere. I saw their brothers sneak into the room just now, and their body method was light and nimble. I came in later after an accident. What have you got after you came here for a few days?" The Taoist priest asked Xu Fu again.

Xu Fu then explained in detail what he had discovered in the past few days. Taoist Shunzhu listened attentively and thought for a moment, "We should try to penetrate the 'Chishiling' to find out the internal situation of the 'Demon Sect'. However, this is not easy!

Fortunately, we already have four people. We need to find a place to stay first. "

Xu Fu said, "It's better to contact the Beggars' Sect. With their help, we can't worry about big things!"

Taoist Shunzhu thought for a moment, "Leader Li should have a letter to come here. Is their business over there unfinished? Ordinarily, there are Luo Tianqiu and the 'Beggars' Sect' Elder Yang Xianggang. They should be smooth. Why not?"

Where did they know the people from the Bazhong Branch of the "Beggars' Sect"? They have already been visiting them everywhere. Although Xu Fu wore a keepsake of a triangular red rice bag, after all, the contact signal was only known by the branch helmsman. For the sake of safety, he did not disclose this matter to the gang members.

So those who see the keepsake don't know, and those who know the keepsake don't see it. It's really that there is no bird with a gun, and there is no hunter in the habitat.

The next day, the three were dressed in triangular red rice bags, dressed as beggars, begging everywhere, and Taoist Liu Shun was waiting for news in another deserted temple. They are always uneasy about the previous temple. In the afternoon, Chop Yuxuan finally got in touch with the people of the "Beggars' Sect".

The leader of the Bazhong branch of the "Beggars' Sect" is Li Zixiang, who is called "the scholar who killed his life". I saw him dressed as a white and clean scholar. He was only in his 30s. He spoke softly and was very literate and bookish, with a folding fan in his hand. Nobody would believe that he was a beggar leader.

The Bazhong Branch of the "Beggars' Sect", although it is a branch, is really not small, and the southwest area is almost under its jurisdiction. It is called branch rudder, but it is not controlled by the head rudder, at least it is "listen to the tune and not listen to the announcement". The headquarters can't manage so far. It's just that the "Beggars' Sect" in the world sometimes help each other.

Leader Li is a righteous man, and his chivalrous name is widely known. The "Beggars' Sect" in the southwest respect him very much and obey everything they say. Since the disappearance of Leader Li, the Central Plains "Beggars' Sect" has been torn apart and the two sides have lost contact. However, the "Demon Cult" dare not despise the Bazhong Branch, because the Bazhong Branch is both powerful and extensive, and Li Zixiang is not comparable to Li Dongping. He rarely goes out and sits in Bazhong. This man is capable of doing things, and it is not easy to subdue him.

What's more, "rabbits don't eat grass at the edge of the nest" and "Demon Cult" want to dominate the Wulin of the Central Plains, and are unwilling to fight vigorously within the influence of the "Beggars' Sect" in the southwest. Li Zixiang is also a man of great vision. He always restrains the disciples in the gang and never engages in any dealings with the "Demon Sect". So the two sides are at peace.
