Chapter 22: The Dao of the Externally Strong and the Centralized
"You are here to visit Master's grave?"
Song Yu was greatly surprised.
"Everyone, please take a seat first."
He looked at the Nine Extraordinary Monsters one by one and asked them to sit down before politely declining:
"It's just that the funeral of my mentor has already passed. Besides..."
He didn't speak.
The implication is very clear.
I, Dao Yishan, and you, the Nine Extraordinary Monsters, have nothing to do with each other and have no contact at all. How could we come to the mountain to worship for no reason?
In addition, you nine people have good and evil reputations in the world, how could you agree to this rashly?
But don’t reach out and hit the smiling person.
What's more, they came to visit in a polite manner and even said they wanted to visit the grave. It was difficult for Song Yu to say some things directly.
I thought these people could understand the polite rejection in my words.
In no mood.
The child-like Emperor Tong laughed and said:
"Master Song, I don't know. The truth is that the nine of us were deeply favored by Master Chen, the best in the world, a few years ago. We have never dared or forgotten that we should come to pay homage to Master Chen during his funeral.
Condolences, but at that time I and I had important matters to attend to and were not in the Central Plains. We had to wait until we were busy with other matters, but now it is too late."
"My master and Mr. Tong have any favors with the nine of them?"
Song Yu first glanced at the Tong Emperor and the others, and then looked at his elders and junior brothers, communicating with each other:
"This matter..."
"We have never heard Master talk about it."
"Hahaha!"
A short-headed man with a big face and wide mouth stood up, licked his lips and said:
"Mr. Chen is regarded as the best in the world. He has done many things throughout his life, whether it is rescuing fellow martial artists or conquering demons. I don't know how many people have benefited from him. It's not just a few of us. He may not be able to do it all."
Let me tell you all."
This is true...
Song Yu and the elders looked at each other, silence flashing in their eyes.
He raised his head slightly, looked at the middle-aged man with a big face and a big mouth, and said:
"I wonder which master among the Nine Extraordinary Monsters this is..."
"A certain family, Tiezui Xian."
The middle-aged man known as "Iron Mouth" licked his scarlet lips, looking a little evil.
Upon seeing this, Emperor Tong said:
"Isn't it Tong? I haven't asked other people to visit Daxia Song and tell them their names."
As he said that, he first pointed at the woman among the nine:
"Meixiangu."
Pointing at the fat, oily man carrying a pig-killing knife:
"Pigmaker."
Pointing to the actor with a mask on his face:
"The puppeteer."
One-fingered monk:
"False monk."
One finger Taoist priest:
"Barbarian."
Pointing to a man with bare arms:
"Bronze Hands."
Pointing to an old man with a goatee:
"Half-hearted doctor."
In addition, he himself, the Tong Emperor, and the Iron Mouth Immortal who had previously claimed his family status.
There are nine people in total, men, women, old and young, monks, Taoists, doctors, and a pig butcher. These are the nine extraordinary monsters who are famous in the world.
Song Yu, Yu Miaolian, Zhang Liting and others, as well as the elders of Daoyishan, looked at each of them one by one during the introduction by Emperor Tong.
Every time I look at someone carefully, I feel a little startled in my heart.
Among the nine people, only Mei Xiangu and Ban Diao Doctor may only be at the first-class master level, and they can sense the fluctuations of true energy.
The remaining seven people were sitting there, their true energy was like a deep pool and a flat lake, without any ripples.
There is only one possibility. Most of these seven people may be masters at the master level, or even above the master level.
"Since several of you have come from afar, you want to pay tribute to your mentor."
Song Yu muttered:
"I have to report it to the leader before I can make a decision."
"It's natural."
The Child Emperor smiled and narrowed his eyes.
Song Yu saw this and said:
"Guys, please sit down for now."
After he winked, several elders were left in the hall, and Yu Miaolian and Zhang Liting followed them out.
Song Yu immediately said:
"There are nine people in total, at least seven grandmasters. The purpose of our visit is unknown now. The matter is serious. One of you two is going to find the master brother, and the other is going to the back mountain to find the junior uncle."
Of course he would not believe that these Nine Extraordinary Monsters were simply brought here for the purpose of offering sacrifices to their mentor.
These are some of the most famous monsters in the world. Their actions are both good and evil. They are neither underworld nor white. Now they have joined some mysterious Yipintang.
This time I went up the mountain and showed my courtesy for nothing, so I must be either an adulterer or a thief.
Now he can only feel confident if he invites his junior uncle, a powerful figure, to take charge.
After all, the young master uncle is in the first-grade innate realm. Sitting on the mountain, he is not afraid of their ability to climb the mountain.
Since Chen Sha is the leader, he should know more about it.
Zhang Liting said: "Okay, then I'll go find my junior uncle and ask him to come over from the back mountain."
Yu Miaolian said: "I'll go ask the head junior brother."
Nowadays, the only master-level figures on the mountain are the head disciple and a few elders.
Of the six disciples of Taoism, only two have become masters.
The other four are just top-notch.
Not to mention, there are now only five Dao Yi Liuzi left, and another master-level true successor has abandoned his martial arts and severed all relations with Dao Yishan.
Now there are nine monsters on the mountain, seven of them are masters...
Song Yu had to become nervous.
He finally intuitively felt the pressure on his sect after his master passed away.
In the past, when the master was here, not to mention nine grandmasters, nine great grandmasters, or even a first-grade great innate came to the mountain, they were not worried at all.
That's because my mentor Chen Shenxuan is the Optimus Prime who holds everything up.
In front of the best person in the world.
Any dangers and provocations are just fine sand and dust flying and are nothing to worry about.
But now my mentor has passed away.
Their generation of disciples all appear mediocre...
Things that I didn't care about in the past will now start to worry about and worry a lot.
It's strange to say that in the previous generation of Daoyi Sect, even if there was no invincible figure like a mentor, there were still ten great master-level figures sitting on Daoyi Mountain.
However, in the previous generation, although there were invincible figures like the head master and talented martial arts idiots like the young master uncle, none of the elders in the sect could reach the grand master level.
It's not that there's something wrong with the Taoist sect's techniques, or that geniuses are hard to find.
In martial arts training, it is the people who are powerful, not the techniques.
Song Yu had made fun of himself many times, saying that although he was a senior brother, he was only a middle-class person. Being able to become a master in this life might be his limit.
This was the reason why he felt deep in his heart that he must marry his junior brother Chen Sha to the Queen Mother Sect.
Nowadays, the Taoist sect does not have a master, so it is true that it is strong on the outside and weak on the inside.
If it weren't for the fact that there was still a junior master who was in charge... Dao Yishan would really exist in name only, and would fall from the ranks of the great martial arts masters.
…
When Zhang Liting arrived at the courtyard of the thatched cottage on the back mountain.
Explained everything.
But in exchange for this, Wednesday Tong scolded:
"What do you think? A group of thieves with no known purpose came to the mountain and they want to invite me out. Didn't you think that they might be here for me, an old guy who suppresses people underground?"
he shouted:
"I have to go over and accompany my senior brother when I visit his grave. What will happen here? If someone takes advantage of me being led away and releases the ancient dragon here, that will be a big disaster on the mountain."
The old guy Gu Hualong is trapped by sixteen black gold iron chains, and he is also trapped by the Zhenqi Fan cage left by his senior brother during his lifetime. Even so, he can still compete with him, but he will suffer the loss.
If this ferocious martial arts demon was really released and allowed to have no restraints, Zhou Tong really had no confidence that he would be able to beat this old guy.
Zhang Liting felt like he was being beaten.
"I, I forgot this."
There were only true disciples and a few elders on the mountain until who was locked in the dry well.
Channel on Wednesday: "Furthermore, now that Xiao Chen Sha is the leader, it's time for him to take responsibility."
"He's there for everything, don't worry."
After the Li Jianzhou incident that day, Zhou Tong inexplicably began to believe in Chen Sha's abilities.
He somewhat felt that his senior brother's son would definitely become like his senior brother again, invincible in the world.
What does it mean if seven or eight masters go up the mountain?
It’s not like there are seven or eight first-grade great innates.
…
The other side.
Yu Miaolian also came to the door of Chen Sha's retreat room.
Unexpectedly, there was a young Taoist priest from the mountain waiting here. After asking a few questions, I found out that the young Taoist priest had already come to invite Chen Sha.
"I don't know where the master is retreating on the mountain. It's not in the room."
"Not in the room..."
Yu Miaolian also just remembered that Chen Sha had been sitting casually somewhere on the mountain these past few days and fell into meditation, and said quickly:
"Then don't stay here, hurry up, let people go find him."
Whether there is a hidden danger on the mountain or the old leader is paying a hundred-day tribute today, he, the leader, is needed to be present.
