Dragon Warrior

Chapter 28

Zhenren Zhang's birthday is on the ninth day of April, and it is now the beginning of March, and there will be another month to go, so the Emei faction is also making preparations for this event.

The Emei faction and the Wudang faction have always been on good terms. Although the incident of Zhang Cuishan and Xie Xun happened, Juejue Shitai did not neglect it, and ordered a group of female disciples to carefully sew a scarlet brocade robe for Zhenren Zhang. A total of one hundred blessing characters of different sizes and shapes were embroidered, and there were sixteen colors of precious jade, which shows the importance and sincerity.

Xiao Jing has already contacted the headquarters of the Beggar Clan. The Beggar Clan will lead the Jinlian envoy Wen Buming and other members of the Beggar Clan to go to Wudang Mountain by the leader Xiu Zifu, while Xiao Jing himself will go with the members of the Emei Sect. It is agreed to meet at the foot of the mountain.

The congratulators of the Emei Sect were headed by the first disciple of the fourth generation, Shitai Jingxuan, plus Bei Jinyi, Jingxu, Ji Xiaofu, and two other junior male and female disciples, a total of five people.

In terms of status alone among the group, Xiao Jing was the tallest. The whole process was basically accompanied by important figures in the sect, such as Mrs. Jingxuan, and some trivial matters in life were completed by two junior disciples. After a long journey, they finally arrived at the foot of Wudang Mountain on the sixth day of April. After meeting with the Beggar Clan, the two parties set up a big inn in the town at the foot of the mountain.

Zhang Zhenzhen's [-]th birthday is naturally a major event that shakes the entire Jianghu. As long as it is a sect of the Jianghu who thinks it has some status, or a wealthy family, a random person from the Jianghu, etc., no one will be there or send people or personally attend.

Therefore, although there are still a few days before the birthday, all the people who should come have almost arrived, and the originally quiet and peaceful town is suddenly flooded with all kinds of strangely dressed people from the rivers and lakes.

Although there are many of these people, according to Xiao Jing's observation, there are not many people who really come to pray for birthday sincerely. Many people come empty-handed. I also know that most of them are here for Xie Xun.

Three days passed in a flash, and on the morning of the ninth day of April, Xiao Jing took everyone from the Beggar Clan and joined five members of the Emei Sect, and set off towards Zixiao Palace. When they reached the halfway up the mountain, in the Nanyan area, there was a Taoist priest from the Wudang Sect Grand reception, leading everyone straight up, passing by Zhenwu Temple, Xiejian Pond, and gradually approaching the Golden Roof Hall.

As the distance gets closer and closer, more and more martial arts practitioners are going up the mountain. Although everyone left their weapons when they passed Jiejian Pond, it is naturally impossible to hand over something like a dog-beating stick that represents the token of the Beggar Clan. In other people's hands, the Wudang School is considered enlightened, but they didn't force it, so only Xiao Jing was holding a green bamboo stick in his hand, and the others were empty-handed, but many people had bulging waists. One can tell at a glance that all kinds of portable weapons are hidden.

Outside the birthday banquet hall of Wudang Mountain, a name card was presented, and a young Taoist boy went in to report. After a while, the first disciple Song Yuanqiao, the fourth disciple Zhang Songxi, and the sixth disciple Yin Liting came out to welcome them. After seeing the ceremony, everyone gathered together into the hall.

At this moment, the hall was already full of people, many of whom were respected sect masters, and this time they were all present in person, such as He Taichong, the five elders of the Kongtong sect and the leader of the Kunlun sect, Mr. Tieqin, which really seemed unusual.

Xiao Jing waved his hand, and a disciple of the Beggar Clan presented a congratulatory gift, which was a pair of arched birches, ten exquisite jade objects, and a Taoist book "Xuan Fu Lun" handwritten by Xiao Jing.When Song Yuanqiao and the others saw the congratulatory gifts, their faces were even more joyful. Although the Wudang School did not lack these things, it also showed the sincerity of the Beggar Clan. .

After the Emei faction presented the congratulatory gift, all the Wudang heroes were even more happy. Among so many people, only the gift from the Emei faction was the most sincere.

Xiao Jing laughed secretly inwardly, thinking that after Zhang Laodao saw these congratulatory gifts, he might not think so. If nothing else, just say that the "Xuan Fu Lun" that he copied by hand is not available in this age. Although it may not be better than Zhang Laodao's insights, it must be content and viewpoints that Zhang Laodao has never seen before.

Thinking of Zhang Laodao’s knowledge of the past and the present, the Taoist books he has seen must be as many as the number of sands in the Ganges River, but that is mostly the opinion of the predecessors. This "Xuan Fu Lun" is different. It is not necessarily better than those books, but it is a little bit so. From a high position, now that Zhang Laodao has first understood the essence of Tai Chi, he may be able to help him create a real Tai Chi magical skill as soon as possible.

Song Yuanqiao greeted Yin Liting to entertain the distinguished guests from the Emei faction of the Beggar Clan, but there was no response. Looking back, Yin Liting was swaying and peeking at Ji Xiaofu of the Emei faction with a shy expression. Song Yuanqiao couldn't help laughing. It's all good, it's just that this character is too shy, she is already her fiancée, and she still can't let go, she can't even say a word.At the moment, he had to call Mo Shenggu to tell him not to neglect the distinguished guest.

Everyone in the Emei faction also noticed Yin Liting's reaction, so they made fun of Ji Xiaofu. Ji Xiaofu's face was shy at first, but suddenly turned pale, with tears on the verge of tears.Everyone didn't understand, so they just thought she was thin-skinned and couldn't help everyone talking and laughing, so they didn't care much.

Seeing that Yin Liting was still there alone, Xiao Jing didn't know that she was being "hidden as a father" by half, so she couldn't help shaking her head secretly.

To say that this Ji Xiaofu didn't know what to think, and she and Yin Liting's childhood sweetheart, set up a marriage. A man tarnished his innocence, but fell in love with him irresistibly. Could this be the legendary Stockholm Syndrome?Xiao Jing shook her head, expressing that she couldn't understand.

Guests from all walks of life came one after another, and it was already noon in a blink of an eye. The Wudang faction did not expect so many people to come this time, and they were unprepared, so how could they hold a banquet?Daoist Huogong can only give each person a bowl of white rice, with some green vegetables and tofu spread on the rice.

The seven Wudang disciples apologized repeatedly.But seeing the people chopping the rice, they kept looking outside the hall door, as if they were waiting for someone.

Song Yuanqiao looked at everyone carefully, and saw that most of the sect leaders and sect masters were self-respecting, but most of the disciples' subordinates had bulging waists, obviously hiding weapons, only the disciples of the four sects of the Beggars' Gang, Emei, Kunlun, and Kongtong were all empty-handed. .

Song Yuanqiao and the others were all upset: "You say you are here to celebrate Master's birthday, but you hide your weapons. What kind of birthday celebration is this?"

Song Yuanqiao and the others are not stupid, they naturally know why these people came here, it's just that the seven heroes of Wudang are one heart and brother, since Zhang Cuishan doesn't want to reveal Xie Xun's whereabouts, their brothers naturally support him to the end.

They originally thought that after Master's birthday, they would send out hero posts and hold a martial arts conference at the Yellow Crane Tower to deal with this situation.

Zhang Sanfeng has made friends all over the world, and the seven brothers are also chivalrous and righteous, forming good karma, if you have prepared in advance, you can invite dozens of masters to the scene, coupled with the power of the Wudang faction, then there will be a war without fear .But I didn't expect that other people would not give them time to gather people, and they rushed to the big birthday day, and they all came to attack at the same time, but the master didn't like the excitement, and Wudang's best friends didn't invite any of them beforehand, and now they ended up in a mess Outnumbered and isolated.But the matter has come to this point, if they really fight, they can only fight to the death with all their strength.

Everyone in the hall finished eating, Taoist Huogong removed the bowls and chopsticks, Zhang Songxi used words to squeeze everyone, saying first, today is the teacher's birthday, if anyone brings up the matter of Xie Xun and Longmen Guards, it is deliberately embarrassing the Wudang faction.

Before everyone went up the mountain, they wanted to find out the whereabouts of the golden lion king at all costs, but the Wudang faction was famous, and Zhang Sanfeng, a super master, was in charge, so none of them dared to stand out, and they looked at each other for a while, and finally it was Kunlun Pai Xi Huazi stood up and said loudly: "Zhang Sixia, we Ming people don't speak dark words. This time we went up the mountain, firstly, to celebrate Zhang Zhenren's birthday, and secondly, to inquire about the whereabouts of that villain Xie Xun."

Mo Shenggu was young and energetic, he stood up to reason with Xihuazi, and even tore off the belts of the two people beside him, leaking out their gleaming weapons, blocking Xihuazi from saying anything.

Xihuazi became furious and said loudly: "That's right, if Zhang Wuxia refuses to tell Xie Xun's whereabouts, it will be a big deal to talk about swords."

Everyone in the Wudang faction had anticipated the situation, and made a plan in advance. When they were ready to start a scuffle, they each identified their opponents, hijacked important figures from each sect, and forced the opponent to change the scuffle into a one-on-one fight. The disadvantage of being alone and alone, but when it comes to one-on-one, the Wudang Seven Heroes are not afraid of anyone.

Zhang Songxi was preparing to call "Ah Yo", and asked the six heroes present to attack together, to strike first, when suddenly "Amitabha!" came from outside the door, and the Buddha's call was clearly heard in everyone's ears, it was clear and bright, as if from afar It came from everywhere, but it sounded like it was coming from beside me.

Xiao Jing was refreshed, and Abbot Kongwen of Shaolin School arrived, and the main event was finally about to begin.
