Wulin martial arts hegemony record

Chapter 160 Xu Xi's Secret

Xu Zhaoyan brought two memorials into the palace this time. He originally planned to inherit the first one first, and then take the other one when the emperor was happy. Originally, things went smoothly as he expected, but he did not expect the situation to change suddenly. The emperor was not only furious, but he was terrified by what he said. He wished he could leave the place of right and wrong immediately, but he didn't dare to leave, so he could only pretend to be a wooden man and pretend he didn't hear anything.

Hearing that Emperor Taixiang's words meant to drive away guests at this moment, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Your Majesty... I have another sealed letter from the Chengdu Martial Inspection Division here."

When he surrendered, he said angrily: "What kind of secret book? It can make you not present it together, but also hide it!"

Xu Zhaoyan did not respond, and directly submitted the secret document.

Before he finished reading the secret book, Emperor Taixiang's face became a little ferocious. He closed the secret book hard, and his angry voice was like thunder: "Damn Yindu faction! Damn Tangmen! Mr. Zhao said That's right, these martial arts sects should take action to rectify them!"

He paused, threw the secret book in his hand to the old eunuch, and said sharply: "What the hell does the king of Shu want to do?! How dare you violate the imperial court's ban and secretly instigate people from all over the world to assassinate the heroes in the Ping-Qiang War! It's so daring! , daring!—”

Emperor Taixiang took a deep breath, calmed down a little, and said in a cold voice: "You Longwei, please check him carefully and find out the real evidence. You must be punished according to the law!"

At this time, Cao Zhong had read the contents of the secret book, and he responded in a deep voice: "Old minister obeys."

....................................................................................

On the morning of the second day after passing the examination for opening the faction, amidst the sound of firecrackers, Xue Chang solemnly hung the plaque of "Xiaoyao Sect" on the lintel of Xue Mansion (after Xue Chang announced five days ago that he was going to participate in the examination for opening the faction, Xue Fu asked someone to make a plaque in advance).

Then, Xue Chang gathered Xue Fu, Yin Bin, and Wang Xuan together for a sect meeting.

He first asked Yin Bin and Wang Xuan for forgiveness, because the number of places in the sect is limited and has been fully occupied, and he can only include them in the sect after Xun Wusi increases the number of places for the Xiaoyao Sect.After all, both of them possess martial arts. They are not members of the Xiaoyao Sect, but they are working for the Xiaoyao Sect. If someone reports it, the Martial Inspection Division will punish the Xiaoyao Sect.

Although the close relationship between Xue Chang and Jiang Shijia and the Xiaoyao faction are too weak to be tabooed by the court, it is very likely that the inspector will turn a blind eye or close one eye, but the Xiaoyao faction cannot be too obvious, so he invited two People claim to be "collaborators of the Xiaoyao faction".In fact, he wanted Yin Bin to be the head of foreign affairs of the Xiaoyao faction, responsible for managing affairs outside the Xiaoyao faction's station. Of course, there is only one Jincheng Hotel at present, and Wang Xuan is temporarily serving as an assistant.

Yin Bin and Wang Xuan readily agreed, and they also comforted Xue Chang: don't feel sorry for them, they can join the Xiaoyao Sect and get a spot in the sect, which is Xue Changkan's greatest favor to them for the sake of brothers, even if the waiting time If it grows longer, they will be overjoyed, so how can they complain.Starting today, the two of them will work hard for the Xiaoyao faction and will never embarrass his brother.

Xue Chang was very happy when he heard this.

Then he appointed Xue Fu as the head of internal affairs of the Xiaoyao faction, and took charge of the financial power of the sect.

Originally, Xue Fu was mainly responsible for such affairs in the Jincheng Escort Bureau, but now he just replaced the Jincheng Escort Bureau with the Xiaoyao faction, but he is still in the Xue Mansion, and he is familiar with everything, and Xue Fu is also willing to take orders.

Xue Chang carried out a simple decentralization of affairs in the faction, and wanted to wait until Yu Shangshi and Mu Yaosheng arrived with their families before making more detailed arrangements.His plan is to hand over all the trivial matters in the faction to his subordinates, and let him make decisions on important matters, so that he will have enough time to practice martial arts. He knows very well: this is the foundation of his foothold in this world, and the his interests.

At night, after a day of training, the apprentices are all ready to return and rest.

"Xiaoxi, stay." Xue Chang's words made the apprentices stop.

"Yes, Master." Xu Xi lowered his head and responded in a low voice.

The eyes of all the apprentices were focused on the elder brother, their faces were full of concern.

"Why, you all want to stay, Xiao Mastiff and Qiu Di?" Xue Chang looked at them with a half-smile.

Fan Mastiff immediately looked tired: "We practiced all night... ah... I'm really sleepy, let's go back to sleep now, master."

After Fan Mastiff finished speaking, he gestured towards Xu Xi again, beckoning the others to run away from the front yard quickly.

"Your juniors and juniors are very concerned about you." Xue Chang said softly.

Xu Xi didn't speak.

Xue Chang sat down on the steps, then pointed to the side: "Sit here."

Xu Xi sat down quietly.

Xue Chang didn't look at him, but looked ahead, and said, "Usually you are the one who practice martial arts most seriously, and also the one who reassures me the most. What's going on today? I've been absent-minded all the time. I reminded you several times, but nothing happened. Big change—"

"Master, I was wrong." Xu Xi said.

"Master stopped you alone, not to criticize you." Xue Chang turned to look at him, his face was full of concern: "I just want to know what made you so distracted? Can Master help you solve it?"

Seeing him bowing his head and not speaking, Xue Chang immediately said in a gentle tone: "Of course, everyone has their own secrets. If you don't want to tell them, you can't force them as a teacher, but I still hope that you can—"

"Master!" Xue Chang raised his head suddenly, looked at Xue Chang with piercing eyes, and said a little excitedly: "Yesterday when you were fighting with Tang Fangzhi, the martial art he used at the end split into two figures... and My family's martial arts are somewhat similar!"

"Your family's martial arts?" Xue Chang was a little surprised.

Xu Xi didn't dare to meet Xue Chang's gaze, lowered his head again, and stammered: "Master...Master, please forgive me...I have been hiding the truth from you, I—"

Xue Chang patted him on the shoulder, smiled and said: "I said just now, who can have a little secret, some secrets are not even told to parents, how can I blame you! Well, I just need to know that Xu Xi, you are my good apprentice now, you are a good senior brother of Fan Mastiff and Hu Qiudi, and you will wholeheartedly protect our sect, that's enough."

"Master..." Xu Xi said excitedly: "I vaguely remember my apprentice...my family lives in a valley, and there are not many people in the family. Apart from my parents, there is also an Uncle Li... When I was four years old, I My father rescued a man from outside the mountain, and kindly left him at home to recuperate from his injuries..."

Xu Xi had a look of extreme pain on his face, and he grabbed the grass on the ground tightly: "But this ungrateful man seduced... my mother! After my father found out, he wanted to drive him away angrily, but I never thought...my mother...would leave with that man..."

Xu Xi's face was ferocious, but his expression became a little dazed: "My father was very angry, so he fought that man, and in the end... my father was defeated and fell to the ground, watching my mother leave with that man... I cried and screamed desperately, but my mother just walked away without even looking back... I cried for a long time, but my father kept laughing and didn't come to comfort me. The laughter sounded terrible ..." Xu Xi murmured in a very low voice, completely unaware that his lips were bitten by teeth, and dark red blood oozed out.

"I was tired from crying, so I fell asleep...Suddenly I was woken up by choking, and found that the whole house was on fire, and there was thick smoke everywhere. I was very scared. As soon as I yelled twice, the thick smoke went straight to my body I'm coughing, I feel like I can't breathe..." Xu Xi's whole body trembled unconsciously, obviously the fear at that time left a deep imprint on his heart.

Xue Chang stretched out his hand, hugged him tightly, and gave him silent support.

Xu Xi stopped trembling, and stared blankly at the ground. After a while, he sniffed: "...At that moment, a man broke in from the fire, picked me up and rushed out of the burning room... I thought it was my father, but later I found out it was Uncle Li. He told me... my father went crazy, knocked him unconscious, and set the whole house on fire. He wanted the whole family to be buried together, but he woke up in time. rescued me... Only my father burned to death in the house...

Uncle Li also told me that before my father injured him, he kept saying, "My mother is too cruel, not only ran away with that man, but also stole the family's martial arts cheats." .He also said, "My mother is too stupid. Obviously that man came here for my family's martial arts secret books. He won't really like her, and there will be no good results in the future"... because he was worried about the thief who took away my family's martial arts secret books. I will come to make trouble again, Uncle Li took me out of the valley that day and wandered all the way to Bashu..."

"Abducting your mother and stealing your family's secret books, this person is extremely despicable!" Xue Chang was both angry and puzzled: "Why didn't you report this to the inspector?"

Xu Xi hesitated for a while before saying: "...According to Uncle Li, my family was an official in the previous dynasty. My father didn't want to serve the new dynasty, so he fled to a valley in Hanzhong and lived in seclusion..."

Xue Chang squeezed his shoulders tightly again, and said with a very solemn expression: "I don't care about your past life experience as a teacher. I only know that you are now my Xue Chang's apprentice and the first disciple of my Xiaoyao Sect. Enough! Your enemy is naturally the enemy of my Xiaoyao faction! Tell Master, who is this man who ruined your whole family?!"

Xu Xi stared excitedly at the man in front of him who was only eight years older than himself, but his eyes were full of admiration. His voice was a little trembling, but his tone was firm: "Thank you, Master! But I hope that I can avenge this with my own hands. , I hope Master will complete it!"

Xue Chang didn't respond directly, but asked, "You already know who the enemy is?"

Xu Xi shook his head slowly, and said in a deep voice: "Uncle Li told me that the man's name is Ma Yao, he is about 40 years old now, and he is good at swordsmanship... During the years when Uncle Li was alive, we asked around. However, there is no such person in the Jianghu, and it may be a fake name... However, Uncle Li once said that there is a unique martial art in my family martial arts-Phantom Body Technique. Opponent, win the first chance..."

"So you think Tang Fangzhi probably learned your family's martial arts?" Xue Chang interjected.

"Master, I can't be sure, because I was young at that time, and I didn't see my father perform this kind of movement technique with my own eyes. I only listened to Uncle Li's description. I just felt that the martial arts performed by the elder of Tangmen at the end was similar to that of Uncle Li. It's very similar!" Xu Xi said hesitantly: "I heard from Uncle Li that my ancestor was a martial artist, and later he became a military officer. He hasn't been in the rivers and lakes for decades, and his martial arts have never been spread. I must have learned the martial art from the cheats that the thief stole... However, since the martial arts world is so vast and there are so many schools, it is also possible that the martial arts of other schools are somewhat similar to my family's martial arts, but...but it is always A clue!"

Seeing his apprentice worrying about gains and losses, Xue Chang said in a deep voice: "Xiaoxi, don't worry, Master, I will find a way to help you find out whether the martial arts used by Tang Fangzhi is the phantom body technique born out of your family. If Tang Fangzhi or Tang Fangzhi The door is really related to that thief named Ma Yao back then, the teacher will allow you to take revenge yourself!
However, the Tang Sect is a Bashu faction with strong strength. Even if your crimes are exposed in the future, it will be very difficult for you to take revenge with your current ability!So what you need to do now is to throw away all these miscellaneous thoughts in your mind, redouble your efforts in cultivation, and when the opportunity for revenge comes, you will not regret it because you are unable to revenge yourself! "

Xue Chang's words alerted Xu Xi like morning bells and evening drums. He was a down-to-earth child with a clear mind, but he suddenly found a clue of the thief who had been silent for a while, and lost his mind for a while.

Xu Xi said with a firm expression: "This apprentice must redouble his practice and live up to your teachings, Master!"

Xue Chang saw that his eyesight was clear and he knew that his knot had disappeared, so he jokingly said, "Hurry up and go to sleep, if you are late for morning training tomorrow morning, you will be punished!"

"Yes!" Xu Xi stood up, did not leave immediately, but respectfully bowed to Xue Chang, and said in an excited tone: "Thank you, master!"

Xue Chang waved his hand pretending to be impatient.

When the apprentice's back disappeared into the night, Xue Chang's eyes became deep.

Facing Jiang Shijia's questioning before, Mrs. Qiu, the head of the Tang family, argued: "The Tang family has a large population and many contradictions. She cannot implement strict control, so it is inevitable that there will be black sheep..." Therefore, "Tang Tianshu plotted against Xue Chang and forced him to ask about martial arts. "It was attributed to his own actions, and the Tang Sect didn't know about it.
