The three of them left Dagu Peak and ran dozens of miles to find a hidden cave to hide in. Shi Yi said: "Senior Brother Li, thank you for being cautious enough and discovering the old thief from Xinghai. Otherwise, we would have gone hand in hand right now."
He is in hell. Damn it, how could the old thief from Xinghai find Hidden Immortal Platform?"
Shan Sinan thought to himself: "The old thief from Xinghai must have learned from Sun Jicha that we were hiding on the Hidden Immortal Platform."
Li Tianmu didn't know that Ye Jinquan had changed his will and thought that the old immortal Xinghai was following him secretly, so he found Yinxiantai.
Shi Yi said: "Master, it's not dawn yet, you can sleep a little longer."
Shan Sinan was lying in the cave, his heart racing, how could he still sleep? He said: "Tianmu, we must find your master as soon as possible."
Li Tianmu didn't know that Shan Sinan was eager to find Wu Kunshan to deal with Sun Jicha, and said: "Hey, even if the master comes back, he will not be a match for the old immortal Xinghai."
After daybreak, Li Tianmu and Shi Yi were going back to Zhenwu Temple to discuss the ceremony of taking over the leadership. Shan Sinan knew that Sun Jicha was good at observing words and expressions, so he was afraid that he would see that he had regained his memory, so he said: "I feel a little uncomfortable, just
Don’t go there, don’t tell anyone about our hiding place.”
Li Tianmu and Shi Yi both thought that Shan Sinan did not dare to look back because he was afraid of meeting the old immortal Xinghai. Shi Yi said: "Master, let me stay with you."
Shan Sinan said: "No need."
Li Tianmu and Shi Yi went to Zhenwu Temple and sat together with Sun Jicha, Chen Zhenshi, Sun Yunhe, Sun Xiaohong and other disciples who had entered the house to discuss the ceremony of taking over as head master.
Sun Jicha didn't see Shan Sinan and asked, "Why didn't Lao Wu come?"
Li Tianmu said: "Old Immortal Xinghai came to Hidden Immortal Platform last night. Fortunately, we were well prepared and escaped. The fifth uncle was not feeling well and did not come over."
Sun Jichao said: "Why, the old thief from Xinghai has gone to Yinxantai? He is really bullying people. He thinks that our Wudang sect is weak and can be bullied, and no one can control him? This old thief is really hateful." He paused and said again.
: "Where is Lao Wu? Is the place safe?"
Li Tianmu followed Shan Sinan's instructions and did not reveal his hiding place, but said vaguely: "It's not far from here, it's relatively safe."
Seeing that he didn't tell the specific location, Sun Jicha didn't ask any more questions and said: "If the old thief from Xinghai comes to find Lao Wu again, just ask him to lead the old man to the temple and let me take care of him.
Let’s see what the old thief from Xinghai is capable of, and he is so bold and reckless that he doesn’t take Wudang Clan seriously.”
Shi Yi said disdainfully: "Hmph, to put it nicely, can you beat Old Immortal Xinghai?"
Sun Jichao rolled his eyes at Shi Yi, feeling unhappy but not angry.
Chen Zhenshi's face darkened and he shouted: "Swallow, don't be rude."
Sun Xiaohong said to Shi Yi: "Second brother, don't be angry with daddy."
Shi Yi said: "He is your father, not mine." After saying that, he stood up and left.
Li Tianmu said: "Swallow, where are you going?"
Shi Yi said: "Hold your breath here and go find Master."
Li Tianmu said: "Maybe Old Immortal Xinghai is hiding in the dark. You should be more careful and don't let him follow you."
Shi Yi responded from a distance: "I understand."
When Sun Jicha saw Shi Yi walking away, he sighed and said, "Hey, this kid, we were quite close to each other originally, but we didn't expect it to end up like this."
Sun Yunhe advised: "Dad, this boy Shi Yi is ignorant, don't take it to heart. When I talk to him, maybe the knot in his heart will be solved."
Sun Jicha said: "I'm afraid it's not that simple. With Yanzi's temper, it will be difficult for him to accept me for a while. Forget it, let's not mention him anymore, let's get back to business. I checked the calendar and it's February 13th next year.
It's an auspicious day, so I think that's the day to choose for the succession ceremony."
The others had no objections, and the date was set. Sun Jicha sent people to distribute notices to various sects.
For more than three months that followed, Li Tianmu and Shi Yi lived with Shan Sinan in the cave. Shan Sinan didn't want anyone to see that he had recovered his memory, so he drank Huayu Powder every day without interruption.
.
During the Chinese New Year, Shan Sinan thought Wu Kunshan would come back, but was disappointed. Wu Kunshan still didn't come back.
On February 13th of the following year, the Zhenwu Temple was decorated with lights and colorful decorations. The heads of various gangs came to congratulate one after another. Several second-generation disciples such as Sun Yunhe and Li Tianmu were responsible for welcoming Pudu and others in front of the gate.
Puxian arrived early in the morning and was invited into the hall to have tea. Leaders of Emei, Kongtong, Songshan, Huashan, Beggar Clan, Giant Whale Clan and other gangs also arrived one after another, and the heads of the famous gangs were all admitted.
In the hall, those who are not popular are entertained in the flower hall.
Li Tianmu was unhappy when he saw that the deputy leader of the Beggar Clan, Qi, was here. He thought to himself: "Shi Huang didn't come to congratulate us at the ceremony of taking over as the leader of the Wudang Sect. Could it be that he saw that his master was no longer here, so he didn't treat the Wudang Sect as the leader?"
Do you take it seriously? If that's the case, Shi Huang, you are not kind."
Seeing that his good friend Geng Zhenggang, the law enforcement elder of the Beggar Clan, was not here either, he thought to himself: "That's not right. Brother Geng and I are close friends of life and death. Shouldn't he not come?"
When Deputy Gang Leader Qi and others came closer, Li Tianmu went up to greet him. Deputy Gang Leader Qi said: "The Wudang Sect leader takes over the ceremony. My gang leader should have come to congratulate him in person, but not long ago, an assassin came to the gang.
To be disadvantageous to the gang leader, although Gang Leader Shi defeated the assassin, he was slightly injured, so I apologize for the inconvenience of coming here."
Li Tianmu said to himself: "No wonder Shi Huang didn't come. It turns out he was injured. It seems he must have been seriously injured." He asked, "Who is the assassin?"
Deputy Gang Leader Qi shook his head and said, "That guy is covering his face, I don't know who he is."
Li Tianmu thought to himself: "Shi Huang is very skilled in martial arts, but even his master may not be able to defeat him. There are only a handful of people in the world who can seriously injure Shi Huang. There are only a few of them. Who could it be?"
"It is impossible for Dongwu Sheng to attack Shi Huang, and Nanwu Sheng is Shi Huang's friend, even less so. Only Ni Tianxing and Xinghai Old Immortal are left, which one will they be? Why would he assassinate Shi Huang?
Huang, for what purpose?"
Suddenly he thought of Geng Zhenggang again, and screamed inwardly, thinking: "Oh, Brother Geng didn't come, is he injured too?" He asked, "Is Brother Geng okay?"
Vice Gang Leader Qi sighed and said, "Hey, Elder Geng is no longer here."
Li Tianmu screamed and asked, "Why is Brother Geng missing?"
Deputy gang leader Qi said: "On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, robbers came to Brother Geng's house, and more than ten members of the family were brutally murdered."
When Li Tianmu heard about Geng Zhenggang's tragic death, he felt heartbroken and asked, "Has the murderer been found?"
Deputy Gang Leader Qi said: "We still don't know who did it. Our gang is investigating with all our strength. We must find the murderer of Elder Geng and kill him with a thousand knives."
Li Tianmu said: "Brother Geng and I are as close as brothers. After the third uncle takes over as the leader, I will go all out to find the murderer of Brother Geng's family and cut them all in front of Brother Geng's grave to comfort him.
The spirit in heaven.”
Deputy Gang Leader Qi was let into the hall to have tea. After a while, Mou Rongtian and Li Jiaoyue also arrived. Li Tianmu smiled and said, "Rongtian, why are you here too?"
Mou Rongtian smiled and said: "Can I not be present at the ceremony of taking over the leadership of your Wudang Sect?"
Li Tianmu asked: "How is the situation in Liaodong?"
Mou Rongtian said: "In the past few months, the Tatars have made trouble several times. Master Xiong refused to defend the city and beat them to a pulp with a musket and artillery attack."
When Li Tianmu talked about Geng Zhenggang's murder, Mou Rongtian was surprised and said: "I didn't expect that Elder Geng's family would undergo great changes. He has helped us a lot. We must not let the murderer go unpunished. After I return to Beijing, I will report to Mr. Luo,
The murderer must be found and brought to justice."
When Mou Rongtian learned that the master had arrived, he went to pay homage to him. When he saw Pudu coughing non-stop while talking, he asked: "Master, are you sick?"
Pudu said: "Last month, a masked man came to assassinate me. He was very skilled and very dangerous."
The deputy leader of the Beggar Clan, Qi, was sitting aside. Hearing this, he interrupted: "Monk, were you also attacked?"
Pudu hummed.
Deputy Gang Leader Qi told about the attack on Shihuang and asked, "Could it be the same person?"
Pudu said: "It's very possible."
Three cannon blasts sounded, indicating that the auspicious moment had come. Sun Jicha stood in front of the main hall, congratulated everyone and said loudly: "Sun Jicha inherited the order of his late master and took over the leadership of the Wudang sect. Thank you for your kindness."
My dear friends, please do not give up and come here. The whole Wu-Tang Clan is deeply grateful."
Amidst the sound of drum music, Wudang Sect disciples lined up in two rows and filed forward. In the middle were two first-generation disciples, Chen Zhenshi and Shan Sinan. Chen Zhenshi held the Zhenwu Sword, the token of the Wudang Sect leader, and walked up to Sun Jicha and bowed.
Salute.
Sun Jicha bowed his head and returned the gift. Chen Zhenshi said: "The Zhenwu Sword was passed down by the founder of the Wudang sect and will be taken over by the leader of the sect. The new leader, Senior Brother Sun, please accept it."
Sun Jicha responded "Yes!" and received the Zhenwu Sword.
After the ceremony, everyone returned to the hall and waited for the banquet to begin. Sun Jicha sat on the main seat in the hall and exchanged greetings with everyone.
At this time, Wang Jiuyi, the leader of Huashan Sect and the "Swordsman of Xiyue" stood up and said, "Everyone, I have something to say."
The hall became quiet, and Wang Jiuyi said: "As we all know, the Tatars in Liaodong were responsible for the disaster. Fushun, Tieling and other places were lost, and Shenyang was in danger. As the saying goes, everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of a country. How can we, the martial arts people, sit back and watch the Tatars wreak havoc?
ignore?
"I, Wang Jiuyi, am not very talented. I am willing to lead all the disciples of the Huashan Sect to Liaodong to help the imperial court wipe out the Tatars. I wonder if any of the gang leaders are willing to join us in the Huashan Sect?"
Mou Rongtian thought to himself: "Wang Jiuyi said it well. If all the major gangs go to Liaodong, why worry about the Tatars not being destroyed?"
The leader of the Kongtong Sect, "Flying Dragon Swordsman" Taoist Master Juechen, shouted: "Count us in the Kongtong Sect."
Sun Jichao said: "You can count us as one of the Wudang Sect."
Pudu said: "Shaolin Temple is also willing to go with us."
Other gang leaders present also expressed their agreement.
Wang Jiuyi said: "If everyone does their own thing, the power will be dispersed. If we can twist it into a rope, the power cannot be underestimated. As the saying goes, a bird cannot fly without a head. I suggest that we elect a martial arts leader to lead everyone to work together. I don't know if you
