When Lu Jing heard about his notoriety, he was a little speechless and said apologetically to Yi Guanqi: "It was Lu Jing's lack of consideration that caused the reputation of the Guanqi girl to be damaged. I just let them add fuel to the flames. I didn't expect... these guys actually made it up."
Please forgive me for spreading such despicable rumors."
Lu Jing cupped his fists and raised his hands.
Yi Guanqi chuckled and said: "It doesn't matter. Feng Yue's chat is the easiest to spread. This afternoon the piano music was intermittent. Those who are clear will be clear themselves. You don't have to worry about it."
Yan Ling said from the side: "That's right!"
Yi Guanqi glanced at her speechlessly.
Yan Ling pretended not to see it, and fed Mo Tong food. Mo Tong liked her snacks very much, and the snake's head kept swaying left and right with the food.
At this moment, two flying swallows flew into the window one after the other.
"Coming..."
Lu Jing perked up, caught Feiyan with one arm, took off the letter from their lap, and examined it carefully, his face suddenly darkened.
Yan Ling and Yi Guanqi looked at each other, and Yan Ling whispered: "What's wrong?"
"The situation is a bit troublesome. I have to go back to the mountain."
Lu Jing immediately stood up and said quickly: "The music is very nice. Come back another day. Yan Ling, don't go out during this period. Be careful. I'm leaving first." After saying that, Mo Tong flew back to his wrist, and he turned into lightning and rushed towards
Go out the window and run straight to Motian Ridge!
Yi Guanqi clapped his hands and praised: "What a quick qinggong! No wonder I have the confidence to take over this position."
Yan Ling lay down at the table, looking at his back, feeling lost: "I don't know what happened... To watch the chess game, I want to go into a secret room to practice the Soul-Eliminating Bone-Eroding Hand in seclusion. Let me know when he comes."
"good."
Yi Guanqi nodded, and Yan Ling pressed the mechanism under the table and walked into the secret room.
Lu Jing returned to Motianling Daoqi Changcun Hall as quickly as possible. Fan Xuan and Zhang Yulan were handling government affairs in the hall, and Yang Song and Yang Bai were also helping.
"Master."
Lu Jing walked into the hall quickly and gave a simple salute to the four of them. On the pretext that there were disciples of the true disciples of Tianshi Tao causing trouble, he asked Fan Xuan and Zhang Yulan to come to the side hall to discuss the matter.
Yang Song and Yang Bai knew clearly that Lu Jing didn't want them to know, but there was nothing they could do about it.
The internal affairs of Tianshi Dao are independent of government affairs, and they really have no right to participate.
Fan Xuan and Zhang Yulan already knew from Zhang Qiying that Lu Jing had been setting up a fishing trap that day. They had secretly found someone to spread the rumors about him. At this time, they returned to the mountain, most likely with results, and followed Lu Jing to the remote area.
temple.
Fan Xuan also deliberately blocked the space and prohibited the spread of sound.
"Dongting, what happened?"
The expressions on the two men's faces were solemn. For Lu Jing to be so eager, his opponent might be unusual.
Lu Jing handed over the two flying letters and said in a deep voice: "One is the result of Hu Cong's interrogation, and the other is the result of Xingdu's tracking... The situation is very complicated. If both are true, we must ask the master to take action together.
, to be foolproof!"
Fan Xuan and Zhang Yulan knew that this matter was not trivial after hearing his words, and quickly read the contents of the letter.
The first one was asked by Hu Cong from Deng Yi - no one can withstand the torture of waterboarding, especially Hu Cong, who is very good at knowing how long the prisoner lasts, so as to prolong the feeling of dying and make people immersed in it.
In a state of being unable to survive and unable to seek death, even if you want to die, you can't do it, no matter how hard you say, you can still pry it open!
Deng Yi didn't last long and recruited everything he knew.
A total of five people from the Deng clan came, four were loyal, righteous, benevolent and brave, four were at the peak of Qi creation, and one was transformed into a god. The inducement was Pang Tong's letter, which told about Lu Jing's murder of Deng Zhi. The purpose of this trip was revenge, but it was not
all.
The Xinye Deng family also received news that the school affairs office had been plotting for a long time to assassinate Zhang Lu on the Christmas day of Taoist ancestors on February 15th!
Xia Houyuan was waiting for the opportunity in Liangzhou. Once Zhang Lu died and Hanzhong was in chaos, Xia Houyuan would attack Yangping Pass in a large scale and take advantage of the opportunity!
This time, not only the Deng clan members, but also Tan Hua, the right protector of Jiuli Village, also used the banner of avenging his disciples and disciples, but in fact, just like the Deng clan, they all wanted to wait for Zhang Lu's death to take advantage of it and get a piece of the pie...
…
Are they so sure?
Fan Xuan felt strange in his heart. The Heavenly Master's "Thunder and Wind Walk" was unique in the world, and the difficulty of assassination was known to the whole world!
Master wants to leave, but no one can stop him, not even the school affairs office can do anything about it.
Over the years, the school affairs office has secretly assassinated him no less than five times, but none of them could hurt him. What is different this time? After all, this is the Tianshi Taoist temple that Master has been running for thirty years. Not only is it impregnable, it is also easy to defend.
It's difficult to attack. If you are caught off guard, you may gain something. But on Christmas Day, everyone is ready and they have no chance at all. Why do you say this?
This question is answered in the next letter.
"Master of Stone?"
When they saw those four words, Fan Xuan, Zhang Yulan was shocked and said in unison: "He's here too?!"
Fan Xuan said solemnly: "Are you sure? Could you be wrong?"
Lu Jing said sternly: "If it were someone else, there might be a misunderstanding, but this is what Xingdu sent back."
Fan Xuan was silent.
Xing Du is the son of Xing Mu and grew up in Motian Ridge. Although this stubborn stone master is from the previous generation, he comes to Motian Ridge every year due to grievances. He has seen it with his own eyes and cannot admit his mistake.
Zhang Yulan said: "If he really joins forces with the school affairs office, it will be troublesome..."
Master Nushi's real name is Zhao Zhi. He is a disciple of Zhang Heng's senior brother Zhao Sheng. He received the true transmission of the Celestial Master's Tao, so he is Zhang Lu's senior brother.
His "Thunder and Wind Walk" was once the best in the contemporary era, and he was only stronger than Zhang Lu. If he fought with Zhang Lu with all his strength, it would be difficult for Zhang Lu to escape, and if he was surrounded and killed by the senior officials of the school affairs office, the situation would not be good!
The first generation Heavenly Master Zhang Ling had many disciples, but he only had three direct disciples: the eldest disciple Wang Chang, the second disciple Zhao Sheng, and the third disciple...that is, his biological son Zhang Heng.
These three apprentices are all extremely qualified.
The eldest disciple Wang Chang created the "Lihuo Sword Gang" based on the "Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Techniques", and the second disciple Zhao Sheng also created a set of "Fengyun Divine Technique" based on the "Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Techniques"... As the so-called
Wind and thunder complement each other, and thunder and fire go hand in hand. When there is wind, there is thunder, and when there is thunder, there is fire. One of Wang Chang and Zhao Sheng gets the fire, and the other gets the wind.
Both of them knew that the future of Zhengyiyi was in the hands of their junior brother, so they deliberately or unintentionally found another way.
But this is also the beginning of tragedy.
Wang Chang, Zhao Sheng can accept the hereditary position of leader, but Zhao Zhi cannot accept it.
He was a great disciple of the third generation. When it came to martial arts, he was no worse than Zhang Lu. When it came to Taoism and Dharma, he had a lotus-tongued tongue. He could quote scriptures at his fingertips. Zhang Ling once praised him for his great understanding.
The "Tao De Zhen" says: Make good use of good talents, and those who are capable will live in them!
Zhao Zhi thinks he is more "capable" and "talented" than Zhang Lu, so why should he be the leader after Zhang Heng? Is it just because his surname is Zhang? Or is it because he has learned "deviant ways"?
Zhao Zhi could not accept Zhang Heng's passing to Zhang Lu.
The true inheritance of Taoism should not be based on blood at all. Zhang Heng is familiar with Taoism and must understand this principle. It is enough for him to succeed. He is no worse than Wang Chang and Zhao Sheng, but Zhang Lu is far worse than himself. Zhao Zhi
Not convinced!
Therefore, he conspired to provoke a split and set up another school with the disciples who supported him. As you can imagine, the result was that he was severely beaten and expelled by Zhang Heng.
In anger, Zhao Zhi simply abandoned Taoism and practiced Buddhism. He took the name of Nun Shi and founded a sect in Panshi Temple in Dapan Mountain, Jingzhou. Since then, he has become a great enemy of Zhengyi. Every year on May 18th, Zhang Ling's birthday, Zhao Zhi will come with his disciples.
Debate and martial arts at Motianling.
He wants to prove to Zhang Ling that Zhang Heng made a big mistake in not choosing him. He, Zhao Zhi, can suppress Zhang Lu for the rest of his life no matter how he practices Taoism or Buddhism!
But before that, the two had fought openly and honestly, and they had won and lost each other over the years.
Of course... everyone in Tianshi Dao knows that Zhang Lu actually won a disgraceful victory. After all, he inherited the reputation of Tianshi Dao. As the first sect of Taoism, it is easier to recruit disciples and teach skills, but Zhao Zhi is different. He started from scratch.
You must first spread your name to the world, then you can attract good talents and good qualities. If you can win and lose, you are already very powerful!
Until three years ago, the eldest disciple he had high hopes for died unexpectedly in Soochow. Panshi Temple has been in a state of decline since then. It suffered repeated defeats in scripture debate meetings. The subsequent disciples were incompetent, and their Buddhist and martial arts skills were far behind, making it difficult to compete with Zhengyi.
Could it be that because there was no hope of victory, Zhao Zhi was arrogant and found it difficult to accept, so...
Fan Xuan and Zhang Yulan looked at each other and vaguely understood Master Nushi's thoughts.
"Based on this inference, the situation is probably true."
Fan Xuan said: "If Master Nianshi really does whatever it takes to help the school government to entangle Master, then Christmas Day will definitely be dangerous. We must report it quickly and try to overcome this difficulty..."
Before he could finish his words, a flash of lightning rushed into the side hall. Zhang Lu had already come to the room and saw the two letters in Fan Xuan's hand: "I already know... It's time to settle this grudge."
Zhang Lu sighed and looked at Lu Jing: "Dongting, what do you think?"
Lu Jing said naturally: "Of course it's better to strike first."
