Chapter three hundred and eighty third: the gathering of grievances
It's not difficult to deal with a reckless warrior who only thinks about fighting and killing, nor is it difficult to deal with a guy who only knows how to plot in secret. What's really difficult is the combination of the two, as is the case with Nie Dongliu now.
Chu Xiu knew that Juyizhuang was not easy to mess with, but the grudge had already been forged, and it would have to be resolved sooner or later.
At this time, at the foot of Fuyu Mountain, everyone who was due to arrive had almost arrived. The disciples who were sitting in the Forgetting Sword Cottage had already begun to come out to maintain order, preparing to wait for the World Sword Sect Conference to officially begin. But at this moment, there was a sound coming from the foot of the mountain.
There was a louder noise, and it was obvious that the person coming was more famous than Nie Dongliu.
Chu Xiu looked back and saw that the people who came turned out to be people from Daguangming Temple, Subhuti Temple and other top sects.
These major sects were all invited by the Five Sword-holding Sects to watch the ceremony. There is never a shortage of top martial arts masters from this level of top martial arts sects.
For example, each of the three major Zen halls and the six major martial arts academies of Daguangming Temple has the strength of a martial arts master.
The people coming from Daguangming Temple are Xuyan, the head of the Vajra Academy, and Xudu, the head of the Kongzhi Zen Hall. One person each comes from the Wuyuan and the Zen Hall, which is enough to give face to the five major sword sects.
The first Xudu in Kongzhi Zen Hall is a middle-aged monk who looks over forty years old. Compared with other monks from Daguangming Temple, Xudu looks a little careless. He staggers when walking and loses his monk's robe.
He is just an old gangster on the street, not an enlightened monk at all.
But among these people, he still had the highest status. The other Daguangming Temple warriors could only succumb behind him. This made the disciples of Daguangming Temple behind him cover their faces and look embarrassed.
They really don't understand why the temple would send Uncle Xudu here. This is simply affecting the image of their Daguangming Temple.
Seeing Xu Du's appearance, Xu Yan pulled Xu Du's arm and whispered: "Senior Brother Xu Du, pay attention to your appearance!"
Xu Du glanced at him and said nonchalantly: "Image? I'm not the abbot, senior brother, what kind of image do I want? My master gave me the Dharma name Xu Du at the beginning. I didn't waste my time and I was worthy of him.
Besides, my Buddha has said: All conditioned dharmas are like bubbles in a dream, like dew or lightning, and should be observed in this way.
I have a Buddha in my heart, who can say that I have ruined the reputation of the Buddha? A Buddha is the one whose body is plated with gold and has a solemn appearance, but the one who protects the poor people with a clay sculpture is not a Buddha?
Junior brother, you are obsessed with appearances. It is not a good thing to be too attached to these appearances. The Buddha is in your heart, not on your cassock."
Xu Yan was choked by Xu Du's words and was speechless for a while, rolling his eyes.
The six major martial arts academies practice martial arts, and the three major Zen halls have fellow practitioners of Zen martial arts. In terms of understanding of various Buddhist scriptures, they are far inferior to them in terms of words.
Although Xuyan knew that these were all Xudu's excuses and sophistry, he suddenly heard that they seemed to make sense. Looking at the Buddhist disciples behind him, they all also looked like "Uncle Xudu, how are you doing?"
"Awesome" Master Xudu is indeed worthy of being a great monk. He looked admiring.
Seeing this, Xuyan felt helpless and deeply worried about the future of Daguangming Temple.
At this moment, Huizhen, who was following him, suddenly stiffened and froze there.
"Huizhen, what's wrong?" Xuyan asked.
Because of Mingchen's death, Huizhen, who was already quite old, has shown signs of aging in recent times, so he only brought Huizhen with him to this World Sword Sect Conference as a distraction.
Following Huizhen's gaze, Xuyan also saw Chu Xiu, which made him frown immediately. He did not expect that Chu Xiu would be here.
After all, the World Sword Sect Conference is a grand gathering for the entire world, and it is a more serious one, so the people who can represent their respective forces must be the mainstays of their respective forces.
Although Chu Xiu's combat prowess is comparable to that of the Harmony of Heaven and Man, in fact he is still in the Five Qi Dynasty Yuan realm, and his qualifications in the Guanzhong Punishment Hall are far inferior to those of other execution officers and the leaders of the Punishment Department, so what's wrong with Xu Yan?
No one could have imagined that Chu Xiu would be here.
Xuyan looked at Huizhen with some worry. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Huizhen turning his head indifferently, waving his hand and saying, "Uncle, I'm fine, let's go."
Huizhen knew the difficulty of making false promises, and did not want to embarrass this junior uncle who had always been kind to him.
But some monks from the Vajra Academy said with an angry look on their faces: "Chu Xiu killed my senior brother Mingchen and my senior uncle Huizhen. Is this the end of the matter?"
The monks in the Vajra Monastery all practice together. These monks are not Huizhen's disciples, but they are equally angry about Mingchen's murder.
Some of the grievances and grievances in the world are actually unreasonable. Even the Daguangming Temple cannot help them.
Anyway, in the eyes of these warriors, Mingchen is their senior brother. Although he is hot-tempered and irritable externally, internally he takes good care of their senior brothers and is cold-hearted and warm-hearted.
Now that Mingchen was killed, they didn't care whether Mingchen made trouble for Chu Xiu first or what. Anyway, as long as they knew that Mingchen died in Chu Xiu's hands, it was enough.
Huizhen stopped these people, waved his hands, and said in a deep voice: "Don't be impulsive! I also want to avenge Mingchen, but revenge has to be determined by time and place. What you are doing now is damaging our Daguangming Temple.
Reputation must be considered for the sake of the overall situation!”
Among the warriors present, Huizhen, whose disciple died, was the calmest. Although the others were a little angry, Huizhen, Mingchen's master, said that this matter should be put aside for the time being. What else could they say? They had to suppress it.
The anger in my heart was as if I hadn't seen Chu Xiu.
Xu Du, who was walking at the front, couldn't help but shake his head when he saw this scene and said: "When is the time to repay grievances? You can't suppress things like hatred. The more you suppress them, the stronger they will rebound. I'm afraid it will cause even more unexpected consequences. I think
In order to completely settle the grudge, it can only be considered completely settled unless both parties can be completely killed.
Senior Brother Xuyun did something wrong this time. He kept Daguangming Temple from me for a favor, but it deepened the grudge. No one can say for sure how far it will develop.
Xu Yan frowned and said, "Since you know, why don't you tell Senior Brother Xu Yun?"
Xu Du looked at Xu Yan as if he were an idiot: "Based on Senior Brother Xu Yun's character, it is not easy for him to change even if the abbot opens his mouth, let alone this kind of thing now.
.
I don’t want to deal with Senior Brother Xuyun, so next time if something like this happens again and you want to speak, I remind you, you can go alone.”
Xu Yan was immediately speechless and went to deal with senior brother Xu Yun. Xu Yan actually didn't even think about this, otherwise he wouldn't have agreed to Xu Yun's promise so simply.
Xuyun's position in Daguangming Temple is very special. It can be said that he is second only to the abbot, and even vaguely rivals the abbot Xuci.
Moreover, Xuyun's character is somewhat bipolar. Externally, he is the leader of the Wan Nian Zen Hall of Daguangming Temple. He is an enlightened monk with profound Buddhist cultivation and a peaceful personality. However, his other side is almost only known to the people of Daguangming Temple. He can be called paranoid and terrifying. Sometimes
Even if they, the warriors of Daguangming Temple, deal with the abbot, they don't want to deal with Xu Yun.
After the people of Daguangming Temple took their seats, they looked forward. No one even looked at Chu Xiu, even though Chu Xiu was their enemy of Daguangming Temple.
This is also a habit developed by the precepts of Daguangming Temple. Every move is prohibited and very strict.
Xie Xiaolou was slightly surprised when he saw the actions of the Daguangming Temple gang: "Did the Guanzhong Punishment Hall help you settle the matter where you killed Mingchen last time?"
Chu Xiu nodded and said: "Although the Guanzhong Punishment Hall has a short history, it still has some background. I only killed Mingchen, a member of the Diamond Academy, and not the most outstanding disciple of this generation in Daguangming Temple, 'Ming Wang' Zongxuan."
, the Guanzhong torture hall can still hold it down.
By the way, ‘King Ming’ Zongxuan didn’t come to this World Sword Sect Conference?”
Xie Xiaolou shook his head and said: "I heard that 'Ming King' Zong Xuan entered the realm of unity of heaven and man a few years ago, and you can't kill him even if you want to.
This World Sword Sect Conference is mainly prepared for sword cultivators. If ‘Ming King’ Zong Xuan comes, will he come on stage?
As one of the top ten heroes on the Dragon and Tiger Ranking, Zong Xuan would be ridiculed as cowardly if he did not play, but if he did, he would still have the intention of provoking several major sword sects.
So Zong Xuan didn't come at all this time, and the 'Little Heavenly Master' Zhang Chengzhen didn't come either. Among the top five on the Dragon and Tiger List, only 'Jian Shou' Fang Qishao came, and by the way, Yan Feiyan from Yue Nu Palace also didn't come.
Come on, the final winner of this world sword sect competition is probably Fang Qishao. Others will get some benefits more or less, but among the younger generation of warriors, when it comes to swordsmanship, no one
Can defeat Fang Qishao."
Just when Xie Xiaolou was discussing the Seventh Young Master, the World Sword Sect Conference was about to start. Everyone had already taken their seats, but at this time, a young man walked out from Sword King City and walked straight towards Chu Xiu.
The young man was dressed in a white warrior uniform, but did not have the white turban with the Sword King City logo on his head. His appearance was not very handsome, but he gave people a very natural and comfortable feeling.
A simple long sword with a black hilt exposed was wrapped in linen and hung loosely on its back. It was very inconsistent with the temperament of ordinary Sword King City warriors.
This young man seems ordinary and not as eye-catching as Nie Dongliu, but now that he moves, everyone present can't help but focus on him, as if this young man has some mysterious attraction.
Generally, it attracted his attention.
Xie Xiaolou said in surprise: "'Jianshou' Fang Qishao! Do you also have a grudge against Fang Qishao?"
Chu Xiu looked at Fang Qishao walking over, his expression unchanged and said: "I have no grudge against Fang Qishao, but Sword King City and I are not so happy."
At this time, Fang Qishao had already walked up to Chu Xiu and grinned at Chu Xiu with a gentle temperament.
"My name is Mr. Fang Qi, the young man named "Young Master", not the "young master". You should have heard of me."
Chu Xiu also looked calm and said: "Chu Xiu, the one who has stopped everything, since you came to me, you should naturally know me."
