Chapter 271 Chapter Five: The Four Holy Monks

Kou Zhong led Gui Xiliang and Xing Rong, and Li Zitong, Zuo Xiaoyou and others personally sent them out of the general manager's mansion. The treatment they received when they came here was really different. Alas, after leaving the gate of the mansion, Shen Beichang, Luo Feng and Mrs. Yuling greeted them, and everyone had unbelievable expressions on their faces. Shen Beichang said: "This place is not suitable for talking, follow me." After a while, they arrived at a nearby shop that was related to them. There were already more than a dozen leaders of the bamboo flower gang's incense masters waiting, most of them were only in their thirties, and all of them looked dignified.

After hearing Bi Kouzhong's explanation, Mrs. Yuling hummed coquettishly: "No matter what happens in the gang, it should be resolved within the gang. Shao Lingzhou has violated gang rules and is shameless by using the power of outsiders to deal with brothers in the gang." Mrs. Yuling obviously still has a lot of influence. Everyone who heard her words showed indignation. Only Shen Beichang nodded with a blank face and said: "But now is not a good time for internal strife. Shuai, you are willing to release Hall Master Gui and Deputy Hall Master Xing, once the siege of the city is over, this villain will turn against each other, and even send someone to intercept the young commander, so you have to think twice."

Luo Feng agreed: "The only way right now is to leave the city immediately and settle accounts with Shao Lingzhou in the future. What do you think of this method?" Kou Zhong nodded and said: "I can't think of a better way. Li Zitong doesn't dare to embarrass us now, so he has to leave as soon as possible. Why don't you lie and say that you are going to help me deal with Du Fuwei, even though Li Zitong knows it well?" If you know what is going on, you can easily step down." Shen Beichang said decisively: "Just do it like this!" Everyone responded in unison.

Concubine Shixuan turned her delicate body away and faced Xu Ziling, her eyebrows frowned lightly and said: "Brother Ziling's tone seems to be dissatisfied with Concubine Xuan." Xu Ziling smiled and said: "Miss Shi is not in the world, so she can come and go freely without any restrictions. However, I, Xu Ziling, am an ordinary person. I still have questions in my heart, but it seems that the lady will not answer me! " Concubine Shi Xuan smiled and said: "This is a big misunderstanding. Just now Fei Xuan asked Brother Ziling where you were going, but you avoided answering. Fei Xuan is not only ordinary, but also a woman who loves tit for tat, so I have to hold back. You still dare to blame others."

Xu Ziling was stunned and confused when he heard these words, which were full of the mood of his daughter, from this beautiful woman who was not yet "sanctified", but at least "fairy". Kind of powerful. Concubine Shixuan held back her smile, stared at him and said, "Why did you become dumb all of a sudden? You can only go to Sichuan now. What is the most important thing that can make you leave your handsome brother behind? All the way to Bashu?" Xu Ziling smiled wryly and said: "If Miss Shi wants to know, can't she just ask one more question? Why do you make a detour to play me?"

Shi Feixuan replied with her usual leisurely demeanor, and said softly: "Because Feixuan has not figured out what kind of person you are until this moment, so she tried all kinds of insinuations." Xu Ziling asked in astonishment, "Am I so difficult to understand?" Shi Feixuan nodded and said: "Feixuan is good at observing people. But up to now, I still don't know you and Kou Zhong. Kou Zhong is easy to spy because of his pursuit, but you are like a difficult person. The deep and shallow wells seem simple on the surface, but you can't get your foundation; that's why I was curious, and wanted to know from whom did you learn so many secrets about the two schools of magic and the six ways of magic. What are you doing?"

Xu Ziling said frankly: "Actually, I don't intend to hide anything. Because I went to Sichuan this time to find Shi Qingxuan, and the matter must have a lot to do with Miss Shi." Master Concubine Xuan Yurong moved slightly: "What is it?" Kou Zhong watched Shen Beichang, Luo Feng, Gui Xiliang, Xing Rong and other Zhuhua Gang brothers leave by land, then rushed to the pier outside the city, boarded the fishing boat that came to meet them, and quickly left. It was Chen Changlin who was pulling the boat, besides Bu Tianzhi and Luo Qifei who came unexpectedly, they were reunited after a long absence, and there was a feeling of joy.

Kou Zhong introduced the situation on Li Zitong's side in the simplest way, saying: "Li Zitong is willing to be so humble and let my big enemy go with a white eye, which shows that he knows that he is powerless to resist Lao Du's new round. Therefore, we are allowed to win and never lose. If Lao Du wins Jiangdu, we will have to pack up our bags and find a place to go. The Jianghuai army is not joking." Luo Qifei said: "That's why the young commander saw Qifei here. I disguised myself three times and sneaked into Qingliu, and finally found out that Du Fuwei had a young general named Chen Sheng, who was brave and good at fighting. Du Fuwei relies heavily on him, if we can pretend to be Shen Jun to ambush this person, Du Fuwei will be desperate to attack Shen Lun in grief and anger."

Bu Tianzhi interjected: "According to Qifei's observations, Chen Sheng's 5,000-man army should leave Liuhe tomorrow night to support the land vanguard coming to Jiangdu." Kou Zhong asked, "Where is Liuhe?" Luo Qifei replied: "Liuhe is another county town next to Qingliu East Chushui. It runs through the Yangtze River waterway. From there, you can reach Jiangdu in just one day with the wind and the wind. Chen Sheng is in charge of the Jianghuai Navy that is moored in Liuhe. Ships of all sizes More than seventy ships." Kou Zhong changed his face and said: "Such a short water journey, a sneak attack will be impossible."

Chen Changlin shook his head and said, "In fact, we are not allowed to sneak attack. From Liuhe to Jiangdu, all are under the strict control of Du Fuwei. We can only hit Chen Sheng's handsome boat in one fell swoop with lightning speed. Then board the boat and kill him. Because he is good at water warfare, he poses a great threat to Shen Faxing, and Du Fuwei is convinced that Shen Lun's subordinates did it." Luo Qifei nodded and said: "Among Shen Lun's people, there is a master of spear wielding. He is known as 'Long Spearman' Gu Jun. His stature is majestic, similar to the young commander. If the young commander uses a spear instead of a blade to assassinate Chen Sheng, Even if Shen Lun jumped off the Yangtze River, he would not be cleared of his suspicions."

Bu Tianzhi excitedly said: "I specially dispatched seven fast boats that are most suitable for this kind of sniping in the nearby waters, and even refitted them into warships that can pretend to be the warships of the Haisha Gang. At that time, we will use the usual tactics of the Haisha Gang , carry out a surprise attack, and guarantee that no one will be able to see the flaw." Kou Zhong was overjoyed and said: "Uncles and brothers, if you have any instructions, just tell me to do it!" Everyone burst into laughter. Kou Zhonghu sighed again, turned his head to stare at the night sky lit up by the lights of Jiangdu, shook his head and said, "If I can separate myself, Yunyu really can't think of slipping back to Baling alive." Concubine Shi Xuan moved her face and said: "Yang Xuyan is actually Shi Zhixuan's apprentice!" Xu Ziling said in a deep voice: "He is not only Shi Zhixuan's apprentice, but also the son of Yang Yong, the deposed prince of the old Sui Dynasty. Because Shi Zhixuan's other identity is Pei Ju who wrote "Pictures of the Western Regions", what does Miss Shi think about this? " Concubine Shixuan showed a thoughtful expression, nodded after a while and said: "Thank you, brother Ziling, these words have solved many suspenses in Shi Zhixuan. I don't know where these important news come from?" After Xu Ziling described Cao Yinglong's incident in detail, he said: "According to Kou Zhong and I guess, Shi Qingxuan should not know who is the successor of the Huajian School, so Yang Xuyan will plan to use some method to deceive Shi Qingxuan's trust, so as to get Shi Zhixuan's friendship." Books for my daughter to keep." Concubine Shixuan said: "Shi Qingxuan is not the custodian of the classics of the Huajian School. If my guess is correct, Yang Xuyan should have taken a fancy to the "Immortal Scroll" hidden in Youlin Xiaozhu. This scroll will never die if it falls into anyone's hands. It is useless, only Yang Xuyan and Hou Xibai, the two descendants of Shi Zhixuan, have great benefits." The more Xu Ziling heard it, the more confused he became, and he asked, "What's the matter between Shi Zhixuan and the 'Immortal Scroll'?" Concubine Shixuan showed a bitter smile, and said: "Whether for us or for the Demon Sect, Shi Zhixuan is the most troublesome disaster in the past hundred years. It seems that this person can only punch with one hand and destroy the Sui Dynasty without bloodshed." One can only imagine how powerful he is if he splits the world into pieces. If Uncle Xiuxin hadn't touched his true feelings, causing him to have flaws in the Immortal Seal skill that he created by fusing the strengths of good and evil families, the world might be in chaos. It’s not the current situation.” Xu Ziling took a deep breath and said, "How terrible is the seal of immortality? If you practice it, you can not die. How does it compare to the Heavenly Demon Dafa and the Dao Heart Demon?" Concubine Shixuan replied calmly: "There is no magic method in this world that can make people live forever. It is not wise to keep this stinky skin. Brother Ziling, have you heard of the four schools of Buddhism?" Xu Ziling didn't understand why she diverted to this, nodded and said: "I heard from Cao Yinglong that it seems to be Tiantai, Sanlun, Huayan, and Zen. Shi Zhixuan also secretly learned the secret skills of Master Jiaxiang of Sanlunzong and the fourth ancestor of Zen." .” Concubine Shi Xuan pondered: "It seems that Cao Yinglong really has a heart of repentance, and what he said is not nonsense, because these are all secrets that the four sects have never revealed to outsiders. Shi Zhixuan is a peerless genius in martial arts. In his hands, he can always integrate and connect, and he has another cardinal to reach a higher level. In the history of martial arts, I am afraid that only you and Kou Zhong are qualified to be compared with him." Xu Ziling was stunned at first, he didn't expect Concubine Shixuan to think so highly of him and Kou Zhong, then he blushed and said embarrassedly: "Miss Shi, it's a waste of award!" Shi Feixuan smiled and said: "You are welcome. Both you and Kou Zhong are miracles that are still unbelievable in today's martial arts. How powerful the Immortal Seal is, let's not talk about it, just look at the four great Buddhist monks who joined forces back then. Chasing and killing Shi Zhixuan, you must take back his martial arts, surrounded him three times, and still escaped with his wounds, you can know how terrible Shi Zhixuan is." Seeing Xu Ziling's expression, the concubine Xuan sighed: "Brother Ziling, if you think that the martial arts of the four eminent monks are ordinary, you are very wrong. The reason why they are not well-known in the Jianghu is because they are really outsiders and never get involved in the Jianghu. It's not as famous as Ning Daoqi. Back then, Jiaxiang and the Fourth Patriarch joined forces with Tiantai Sect's Wisdom Master and Huayan Sect's Emperor Xinzun to hunt down Shi Zhixuan. Even the Yingui Sect was silent and dared not intervene. You will know how powerful the Four Great Sages are. In terms of strength, any one of the Four Sages is indistinguishable from Ning Daoqi." Xu Ziling gasped and said, "Then Shi Zhixuan is stronger than Zhu Yuyan and Xiang Yutian?" Concubine Shixuan said: "It's not possible to compare like this, we can only say that they are people of the same level. As for who is higher and who is lower, unless they really fight it out, it is difficult to know the result." Xu Ziling frowned and said, "Miss just said that Shi Zhixuan is also a great disaster to the Demon Sect, so what does that mean?" Concubine Shixuan said: "Because Shi Zhixuan intends to unify the demon way, he poses a certain threat to the leaders of the various sects of the demon sect. Zhu Yuyan is extremely afraid of him. If Master Xiuxin hadn't broken his seal of immortality, Zhu Yuyan might have died sooner or later. She can't keep her supreme status as the number one person in the Demon Sect." Xu Ziling was dumbfounded by this, that day in Luoyang, Zhu Yuyan snatched Shangguanlong back from him, Kou Zhong and Ba Fenghan as easily as if he had blown his breath, he still had lingering fears about it.From this we can know how powerful Shi Zhixuan's martial arts are. Concubine Shixuan looked at the night sky that was about to break dawn, and said softly: "Now the only flaw in Shi Zhixuan's Undead Yin Qigong is the daughter of Master Kuxiao Xiuxin, and the only person who can make Shi Zhixuan never forget his love. Cao Yinglong really has a lot for Shi Zhixuan. I deeply understand that if something happens to Shi Qingxuan, Shi Zhixuan may return to the true nature of the evil king, and there is no need to worry about it. So no matter what method we use, we must prevent Yang Xuyan from succeeding in his tricks, otherwise the chaotic world will be even worse. known variable." Seeing the first ray of dawn appearing on the eastern horizon, Xu Ziling asked: "Miss Shi, are you going to rush to Youlin Xiaogu together with me?" Concubine Shixuan said apologetically, "Concubine Xuan is used to being alone, Brother Ziling, as long as you stay at the Yuelai Inn in South City, Shaocheng, Chengdu, Concubine Xuan will find you." Xu Ziling said calmly, "It depends on the situation!" I thought to myself that since you and Hou Xibai could swim together in the Three Gorges, now that you are clearly going the same way, you have to enter Sichuan separately.This alone shows her status and weight in her heart.That being the case, it would be better for him to be alone, unrestrained and unrestrained, looking for Shi Qingxuan, on the contrary, he would be more at ease. How could Shi Feixuan fail to hear his tone, but left without further explanation, and left after saying goodbye.But it is the opposite direction of entering Shu.Xu Ziling packed up his feelings, left all his troubles behind, and rushed towards Daba Mountain at full speed. The fishing boat docked. Kou Zhong was surprised, "Where is our warship?" Bu Tianzhi smiled and said, "To deceive the spies of the Jianghuai Army, we must have some tricks. We used winches and long wooden slides to drag the seven warships to the shore, and then covered them with trees to ensure that no flaws were exposed. " At this moment Kou Zhong followed the crowd into the dense forest by the bank, and after passing through more than a dozen bushes, he suddenly saw seven small boats lined up, resting on the sliding frame that went straight to the river, which was unexpected . Chen Laomou was instructing his subordinates to paint the logo of the Shanghai Sand Gang on the hull, and he was very busy. When all the soldiers saw Kou Zhong appearing, their morale was greatly boosted. The hulls of this batch of warships are small, and you can feel their lightness and flexibility just by looking at their shapes. Kou Zhong was amazed, he never even dreamed of this trick of hiding a boat in the forest. Chen Changlin said expertly: "This is the small warship that the Haisha Gang is best at using. It is good for charging and breaking the enemy. When there is wind, you can raise the sails, but when there is no wind, you can row the oars. There are parapets on the left and right sides of the ship, which can protect half of the body, and are not afraid of strong bows. Arrows. There are holes under the parapet for the oars to stick out, and all the oarsmen are hidden inside the boat." Kou Zhong saw that there were small holes in the parapet, and praised: "Are these holes used for shooting arrows? Would it be better if they were bigger?" Chen Laomou greeted him and said: "These are called crossbow windows, or teeth holes, and they are specially used for launching strong crossbows, so they don't need to be too big, and they can be aimed and fired." Bu Tianzhi asked: "What is the lack of effort?" Chen Laomou wiped off the sweat on his forehead, and proudly said: "The only thing is that the hull of the boat has not yet been covered with raw cowhide to prevent fire. This is the usual method of the Haisha Gang. It is called the Mengchong Fighting Ship. It can be said that it has worked hard.” Luo Qifei said: "This operation has indeed been deliberated and deliberated. We dare not bring the warships here because we are afraid of making the Jianghuai army suspicious. These seven ships came from other places around the bend. Only in this way can Du Fuwei be convinced." Kou Zhong exclaimed, "If I were my father, I would fall into the trap. Ha! The only thing I should do now is to sleep well?" Chen Laomou laughed and said: "Young commander, don't worry about sleeping! It is best to sleep on the boat, and the old man will wake you up at that time. Then I will change your appearance for you, otherwise there will be no chapter." What about Zhu Chen Sheng?"
