Chapter 35 Washing hands in a golden basin
Two days later, Liu Mansion.
"Crash..."
The strong wind blew, and the high flags rustled.
The rising sun is rising high in the sky, and the clouds are rolling like mountains, suppressing the world.
One after another, martial arts figures, holding swords, guns, sticks, and various strange weapons, walked into the front yard of Liu's house talking and laughing.
This is the courtyard of the Liu Mansion. It is like a square, surrounded by tables and chairs. There is also a small attic in the center of the courtyard, connected to a high platform.
Around the attic, a large cauldron made of bronze stands, and arm-thick red incense sticks are inserted into the cauldron one by one.
The strong smell of incense candles, carried by the strong wind, permeated the entire courtyard.
On the rows of seats, wealthy people from all walks of life were seated one by one. Waiters were constantly serving tea and water, and the scent of pastries blended with the scent of incense candles.
"Mr. Liu, I am Xu Yuan, a swordsman from Hebei Province. Three years ago, I was favored by Mr. San. He saved his family and children in times of crisis. I am here today to witness Mr. San wash his hands in the golden basin. I wish Mr. Liu a good future."
"Mr. Liu, I am Xiang Xing, the swordsman from Longchuan. I was favored by the Third Master five years ago. I am here to congratulate the Third Master!"
"Master Liu San, I'm..."
"..."
One after another, powerful people from all over the world congratulated Liu Zhengfeng with loud voices.
Liu Zhengfeng and Liu Sanye were good at charity and had a righteous heart, and everyone in the world knew about him.
There are countless martial arts figures who have benefited from Liu Zhengfeng, all over the world.
Although not all of them have arrived, there are at least close to a thousand people who have come to the Liu Mansion.
Everyone was sitting on the guest seats. At first glance, it was completely dark, whispering to each other, and it was very lively.
"Senior Brother Liu, Huashan Sect Yue Buqun would like to congratulate you!"
"Senior Brother Liu, Hengshan Sect Dingyi, Dingxian, congratulations to Senior Brother."
"Senior Brother Liu, a Taoist priest from Taishan Sect, would like to congratulate Senior Brother."
"..."
After the people in the world congratulated each other, one by one the heads came out of their seats, congratulated loudly and presented congratulatory stickers.
Washing hands in a golden basin and retreating from the world is not a huge happy event, but it is still a big event for people in the world.
All people in the world, even those who are extremely evil, hope that they can live in seclusion outside the world and enjoy their old age after they grow old and weaken.
To a certain extent, this is indeed a big event and a happy event.
I can't congratulate you enough.
In front of the big cauldron where incense was flourishing, Liu Zhengfeng, dressed in a blue robe, walked out of the attic step by step, and solemnly handed over his hands to many people in the world.
"I, Liu Zhengfeng, thank all my martial arts comrades for your love and support. I have traveled thousands of miles to come here. I am truly grateful."
"Serve the wine! Liu Zhengfeng is here to honor all fellow martial arts practitioners."
Liu Zhengfeng picked up the wine bowl, walked up to the high platform, and said to the martial arts people: "Fellow martial arts fellows, please drink this cup to the full!"
"please!"
"please!"
The voices rose and fell one after another, with great momentum, and it felt like a martial arts conference.
After a series of sounds, Liu Zhengfeng cupped his hands again and said: "I believe that all my martial arts colleagues know that I have been favored by the court and become a small official."
"As the saying goes, loyalty to the emperor is the result of eating the emperor's salary! In this world, righteousness is the top priority when doing things in the world. In the official affairs of the country, one must obey the law and abide by the law."
"In the future, there will inevitably be conflicts between the two, which will embarrass all fellow martial artists."
"Therefore, from today onwards, Liu Zhengfeng washes his hands in the golden basin and will no longer interfere in the affairs of the world!"
"Of course, if all of you here come to Hengyang City, you will still be my friends, Mr. Liu. However, please forgive Mr. Liu and stop interfering with the grievances and grudges in the world."
After saying that, Liu Zhengfeng bowed respectfully to all his martial arts comrades.
All the people watching the ceremony quickly returned the greeting, but no one said a word.
After all, washing hands in a golden basin is a "ritual", and it follows the rules of the martial arts. Most of the martial arts people have received favors, so naturally they will not stop it.
Liu Zhengfeng was also good at charity and upheld the moral principles of the world without any transgression.
The same is true for all sects. Watching the ceremony is to witness.
A delicious treat that no one will mess with at this moment.
After saying this, Liu Zhengfeng solemnly knelt down in front of the memorial tablet on the high platform.
That is the tablet of the leaders of the Hengshan sect.
Washing hands in a golden basin needs to be witnessed by fellow Jianghu, and it also needs to be reported to the ancestors of Jianghu.
"The ancestors and disciples of the Hengshan Sect, Liu Zhengfeng, received the help from his mentor to collect the door walls. He failed to bring glory to the lintel of the Hengshan Sect. He is really unworthy of his mentor!"
"Fortunately, the head of our sect, Senior Brother Mo, is in charge. The Hengshan sect is expected to prosper. There are many disciples in the sect, and there are many outstanding ones!"
"My disciple Liu Zhengfeng has been mediocre for half his life and has made little achievements. One more person is not more than me, and one person less than me is not a lot!"
"Therefore, today my disciple Liu Zhengfeng washed his hands in the golden basin and retired from the world. He made an oath here that he is determined not to use his martial arts to pursue promotions and nobility. He will not use his martial arts to endanger his fellow martial arts. If he violates his oath, he will use such a sword. Please
All martial arts comrades bear witness!”
As he spoke, Liu Zhengfeng drew out his long sword, raised his palm as a blade, and cut it in half.
Just after the sword broke, a servant came respectfully carrying a golden basin filled with clean water.
"Dear martial arts comrades, today Liu Zhengfeng officially withdraws from the martial arts world!"
"Ta-ta-ta..."
Liu Zhengfeng walked up and down, came to the golden basin, raised his hands to everyone again, then took out his palm and put it into the golden basin, intending to complete the ritual of washing hands in the golden basin.
At this moment, a huge voice, mixed with internal force, resounded through the Liu Mansion.
"Wait a minute!"
Following the sound, Fei Bin, one of the Thirteen Taibao of the Songshan Sect, walked in from a distance with his disciples, holding the flag of the Five Mountains Order.
As he walked, he said: "With the order of the leader of the Left Alliance, I ask Senior Brother Liu Zhengfeng to postpone the matter of washing hands in the golden basin for the time being!"
"Coming, coming!"
Outside the Liu Mansion, on the top of a tall building, Dongfang Qing, dressed in Tsing Yi, was sitting on the eaves, happily cracking melon seeds while watching from a distance.
And in Dongfang Qing's mind, a cold mechanical sound also sounded at the right moment.
"Ding! Go to Hengyang City, witness Liu Zhengfeng's Golden Basin Washing Ceremony, and save Linghu Chong's life. Mission points +50, failure or death (completed)"
"Ding! Mission 8 unlocked!"
"Task 8: The influence of external forces is detected. Please ask the host to bring order to the chaos, clear away the external forces within one year, and reshape the general trend of heaven! Mission points +300, failure means death."
Seeing this task prompt, Dongfang Qing, who was originally comfortable, suddenly paused, and then his expression changed drastically.
It has to be said that an external force has affected the general trend of heaven. This has to be said to be a big event.
The system on his body carries the destiny of Heaven for him, which is the destiny of Dongfang Invincible.
Therefore, his tasks are all tasks generated by systematically organizing and promoting the general trend of heaven.
Every step is to move forward steadily for the general trend of heaven, to completely complete this martial arts catastrophe, and to cooperate with the cleansing of martial arts sins.
Completing the mission is equivalent to what the original Dongfang Bubai must do.
But now, as a free soul, the system carries destiny and completes tasks step by step, so that he can collect his own rewards from the general trend of heaven.
Through system conversion, it becomes a task point that can be directly used.
To put it bluntly, they are migrant workers who follow their destiny.
Once he fails and destroys the general trend of Heavenly Dao, he will inevitably face the purge of Heavenly Dao, and may even be in danger of erasing his fate.
Losing one's fate is equivalent to losing one's identity, one's luck and one's love. Even if there is systematic help, there will be constant crises until death.
Unless he can escape from this world, he will inevitably fall into various fatal disasters in the end.
Moreover, once he loses the luck and love of Tiandao, how can he still have his mission?
Without missions, there are no mission points, and there is no way to improve your qualifications. Even if you are invincible, how can you become an immortal?
"Interference from outside forces? What force can interfere with the general trend of heaven?"
Inexplicably, Dongfang Qing thought of the immortal things from more than ten years ago.
In this world of martial arts, only immortals or items left by immortals have the possibility to interfere with the general trend of heaven.
"Could it be Zhu Wuwu, the iron gall god?" Dongfang Qing pondered.
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded again from below.
The voice is clear and sweet, and it is difficult to tell the difference between male and female, making it appear very neutral.
"The imperial edict has arrived!"
Chapter completed!
