Longevity begins with a proud smile

Chapter 45

Ding Mian, Lu Bai, and Fei Bin rolled down with sweat like soybeans.

One was in pain, shame, anger, and fear, and the other two were shame, anger, and fear.

Pain, shame, and anger are easy to understand, but what they are afraid of is not their own being killed, but the reputation of the sect.

Fame is what people in the martial arts pursue all their lives, and like martial arts, it is the foundation for a stable life.

And the rise of any sect cannot be achieved by a generation or a certain person in just a few years or even a few decades.

Take Shaolin Wudang, which is the most powerful of the righteous way of martial arts today, as an example.Although the Shaolin lineage was first created by Bodhidharma, it has been carried forward through the unremitting efforts of several generations of disciples, and it has the reputation of "the world's martial arts come from Shaolin".

Zhang Sanfeng founded the Wudang school, shining ancient and modern.But there are also Wudang Seven Heroes to assist, and he himself has lived in the world for a long time.

The Songshan faction was able to become the leader of the Five Sacred Sacred Sacred Mountains, and it has achieved its glorious status today, and it is the bloody sacrifices of several generations in exchange for it.It's not just Zuo Lengchan and the "Songshan Thirteen Taibao" who broke into the status.

But after today, the prestige of the Songshan School will plummet.

It's not that Zhuo Lingfeng really wears the hat of "Demon Sect Monster" because he doesn't have such great prestige in the martial arts world.

Instead, under combat, Zhuo Lingfeng defeated three with one, and with the theory of justice they insisted on, the faction was rendered speechless.

This is really nailed to the pillar of shame.

Everything that the entire Songshan School has planned for many years will also come to nothing. The Five Sacred Mountains School will never mention it again. Who can convince a sect whose skills are inferior to others and whose words and deeds are inconsistent?

Jianghu sect, the reputation is greater than the sky!

Rao is that the three of them are brave people, how can they not be afraid?
In fact, the heroes also understand why the Songshan faction wants to speak morally to Ren Woxing.

Just afraid!
I am afraid that once you choose to besiege others, you will not be able to keep them.

Those who allow themselves to act like the devil will definitely be immoral and retaliate.He is the master of the sect, with high martial arts and many subordinates, how can he not be afraid?
But he was afraid of the words of the Devil's Cult, but he couldn't bring it to the table.

The Songshan faction can't do it, and neither can the heroes!
The entire martial arts righteous way is not good!
In fact, people in the world have double standards in dealing with others, but in the Jianghu circle, they must pay attention to treating them equally.

One must hold an attitude of contempt for this kind of "double standard" behavior, which is the norm in the world and politically correct.

Throughout the ages, it is better to be.

But after today, some people in the world will say that the mighty Songshan faction shouted loudly, but they actually have different implementation standards for different targets.

When Liu Zhengfeng meets a Demon Sect monster, there is no need to speak morally to him. If he is righteous, he is a traitor to the righteous way. Not killing him is not enough to warn those who come after him!
However, the Songshan faction, who is the supervisor of law enforcement, meets the monster of the Demon Cult, but wants to speak morally to him.

Isn't this a big joke?

Words similar to this will definitely spread in the world, it is really easy to say!

Among the heroes, there are some smart people, and they also realized that it wasn't that Zuo Lengchan and Dongfang Bubai really had any collusion, but that Zhuo Lingfeng made a detour to get Liu Zhengfeng offended, and sent Songshan to the inside and outside. people!
It can be said that the Songshan faction has lost completely against Zhuo Lingfeng.

But if according to Zhuo Lingfeng's words, the Third Taibao of Songshan was executed, they would naturally be unwilling to speak out.

Zhuo Lingfeng is a master of martial arts and is alone. Whether he can survive the Songshan faction's revenge is still unknown.

What's more about them?
Besides, deep in the hearts of the heroes, no matter whether Liu Zhengfeng or the Songshan faction, they are all guilty of crimes worthy of death.

In this world, whoever fights for one breath, it is really wrong to take people's lives at will!

If there is one person who should die the most, then Zhuo Lingfeng is the choice!

Because he is much stronger than everyone else, that is the original sin!
Of course, for the vast majority of people, any master who is much stronger than them should die. This is not for Zhuo Lingfeng.

This just highlights a kind of evil in human nature!

Seeing that the heroes were silent for a long time, Zhuo Lingfeng obviously didn't want to offend the Songshan faction, so he sneered in his heart: "I'm not afraid to kill me, a monster of the Demon Cult, but I'm afraid of meeting the Songshan faction?"

Looking at Ding Mian in thought, he raised his eyebrows and said, "This is the end of the matter, let's be refreshed, why did Zuo Lengchan make such a big fuss at Liu Zhengfeng's hand-washing meeting, you tell me everything, don't make me move thick."

He twisted his right palm slightly.

At this moment, Ding Mian couldn't help snorting softly, he knew that if someone tried harder, his wrist would be broken, so he couldn't help but angrily said: "Do you want to be tortured?"

Hearing this, Fei Bin shouted angrily: "Disciple of Songshan Mountain, listen up, we will die in martyrdom today. Although death is an honor, I will immediately kill the whole family of Liu's family to punish the evil spirits!"

As soon as this remark came out, dozens of Songshan disciples did not dare to obey Fei Bin's order, they really stabbed the dagger into Liu's disciple's heart, only pierced his clothes and stuck it to the flesh, all turned their eyes to Lu Bai.

There are thousands of people in the family, and one person is in charge!
The person in charge this time is Lu Bai, the third eunuch, not Ding Mian and Fei Bin. Such a major matter requires Lu Bai's nod.

The heroes couldn't help but shook their heads, and some people let out a sigh.

Fei Bin and the others said that Zhuo Lingfeng was a monster, so he is not worthy of the Songshan School's reputation as a chivalrous man!

Isn't this stupid move pushing Songshan to the devil's path?

But some people understood it very well. Zhuo Lingfeng resorted to tricks one after another, Fei Bin was already confused by anger, and it was normal for him to speak unscrupulously.

Yue Buqun was both surprised and delighted, Zhuo Lingfeng killed the credibility of the Songshan faction, which was much more powerful than killing a few Taibao.

Zhuo Lingfeng is young, with high martial arts skills and deep scheming, how could he not be surprised when he rubbed the three eunuchs casually?

What the world wants is the hearts of the people!

But the Jianghu sect wants to dominate, what they want is popularity!
The Devil's Cult has a bad reputation in the Jianghu, but it is very popular within the religion. They never think that they are demons, but gods.

But after today, it only takes a few days for these more than 1000 people to walk around the rivers and lakes, and the Songshan faction, the leader of the Five Sacred Sacred Alliance, will become the laughing stock of people after dinner.

All the things on the stage can't be done!

Thinking of this, how could Yue Buqun not be secretly happy?
This would be of great benefit to his Huashan School, no matter how thick-skinned Zuo Lengchan was, what else could he say about the Five Sacred Schools?

Those who refuse only need one sentence, your faction has two words and deeds, which is really inconsistent with the foundation of our school.Zuo Lengchan's face was swollen because he could smoke.

Thinking of this, although Yue Buqun's face was indifferent, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, but no one noticed.

Master Dingyi scolded angrily: "Fei Bin, what are you doing? A man is responsible for everything!
If you hurt a member of the Liu family, you and other Songshan disciples will not be able to leave this place, but the poor nun should also rush to Songshan immediately with a group of heroes, and make a good judgment with the leader of the left alliance! "

Fei Bin snorted heavily.

Zhuo Lingfeng glanced at Lu Bai, and said in a concentrated voice: "You took the Liu family as a family earlier, because you said he was in collusion with the Devil's Cult, and he was a traitor to the righteous way! What about now?
My family treats people from the Demon Cult to watch people order dishes, and I expose it, but use a family member of a person who has quit the arena to threaten?Is this the right thing to do? "

Lu Bai kept silent, obviously thinking about it.

Zhuo Lingfeng glanced at Fei Bin again, and said with a smile, "Hehe, I just said that with a pig teammate like you, Zuo Lengchan's plan must come to naught, now it seems that it is true!
Besides, don't you see that Liu Zhengfeng is determined to die today?

If he could exchange the life of his whole family for your Songshan school's century-old foundation, what do you think he would choose? "

Zhuo Lingfeng knew that the Songshan faction were ruthless people, and if they wanted to save people, they had to go around. If they asked them to let them go, with their unthreatening nature, it would be counterproductive.

Liu Zhengfeng also looked at his family at the right time, and said solemnly, "Are you afraid of death?"

"Not afraid!"

The Liu family said in unison.

Everyone knows this is gambling!

Whether your Songshan faction wants to maintain a minimum reputation, or kill the Liu family, you choose!
The eyes of all the heroes also fell on Lu Bai's face.

Lu Bai let out a long breath suddenly, and said with a sad smile: "Zhuo Lingfeng, you are doing well!
Very good!
You talk a thousand words, beat around the bush, and label us as colluding with the Demon Cult. You just want to save the Liu family.

I promise you, if you let us go, I will let you go! "

He was extremely reluctant to say this at first, but now that the matter has come to this, so what?

Arguments in martial arts are both civil and military arguments.

Hands-on, never fought; commented, justified.

This is a complete failure!
Everyone could see that although the heroes had no intention of killing them, it was obvious that their hearts were turned against each other, and it was meaningless to pester them any longer.

Zhuo Lingfeng sneered and said, "Hehe, you're talking too hard, like if I don't let people go, you won't let Liu Zhengfeng's family go?"

Lu Bai turned his head to look at the Songshan disciples, his face turned pale, and he shouted angrily, "Let him go!"

Songshan disciples put away their daggers and took a few steps back. The Liu family didn't have time to thank Zhuo Lingfeng, so they all stood behind Liu Zhengfeng.

Lu Bai understood very well that the purpose of arresting Liu's family was to show prestige by killing people, not to kill people for the sake of killing people!
But now that his family is disgraced, how can he talk about standing up for others, so what can he do with this group of family members?

Did he really kill them as Fei Bin said?

Killing people without taking advantage of reason is really like a demon.

At that time, not only will they have no way out, but the Songshan faction will be destroyed and the countdown will begin, so it's better to be generous!

Besides, killing the Liu family is only a matter of one sentence.

There are "Songshan Thirteen Taibao" on the surface of the Songshan School, but there are also many heretic masters in the dark!

Although he was seriously injured, his mind was not in a mess, and he quickly cleared his mind.

Lu Bai looked at Zhuo Lingfeng again, and said shyly, "Can we go?"

Zhuo Lingfeng was very decisive when he saw that he let the members of the Liu family go as soon as he said he would, and felt even more troubled.

He knew what these people were doing. The Songshan faction would let the Liu family go, but they didn't promise not to trouble the Liu family in the future. He hummed, "Why is it so easy? What about in the future?".

Liu Zhengfeng also understood, and cupped his hands and said: "I beg some brothers to tell the leader of Zuo, and ask him to hold his hands high, and let Liu take his family and disciples far away and live in seclusion overseas. As long as he lives, he will never take a step in the Central Plains. How about it? "

Everyone knows that although Lu Bai admitted his failure, the main focus is still on this sentence.

The people of the Songshan faction are waiting for today to live or die, but without this sentence, the Liu family will not be able to survive. This is a fundamental problem.

After all, the Songshan faction suffered such a big somersault, if they didn't kill Zhuo Lingfeng, how could they gain a foothold in the martial arts world?
Even if he couldn't be killed, how could he not take revenge on Liu Zhengfeng?

If, as Zhuo Lingfeng said, Zuo Lengchan really gathered a lot of leftist masters under Zuo Lengchan's command, wouldn't it be possible to kill Liu Zhengfeng at any time?Whether it's an assassination or an open murder!

Didn't Guiyin disappear from this world?

Relying on the intelligence network of the Songshan faction, you still can't find people like your Liu family?
Naturally, Lu Bai knew what Zhuo Lingfeng and Liu Zhengfeng meant. He gasped for breath with grief, swallowed again, and said, "Today, the Songshan faction suffered a crushing defeat. I agree to let them go. This is within the scope of my authority."

Having said that, he sighed again.

He was already thin, but at this time his expression was extremely sad, and there was a feeling of compassion in the hearts of the heroes. Some people even thought that Zhuo Lingfeng had broken the foundation of the faction and was too vicious.

Lu Bai raised his eyes and looked at the sword on the beam in the hall, and said again: "But at this time, I, Senior Brother Ding and Junior Brother Fei are prisoners, and my long sword is still stuck on this beam. What is it like?
If I make another alliance under the city, everyone in the Jianghu will definitely say that the Songshan faction has been threatened by Zhuo Lingfeng, and it's fine to admit defeat, but they don't even dare to find their way back.

Then we have lost all the face of the Songshan School for a hundred years, everyone, what face do we have to meet our mentor under the Nine Springs after death?How can I be worthy of my Senior Brother Zuo?
Besides, I don't have the heart of a master of Taoism like Yu Guanzhu, nor the authority of his sect leader! "

Zhuo Ling got angry and said: "Your Songshan faction wants revenge, no matter what means, I will follow. Why do Liu Zhengfeng's family?"

Lu Bai lowered his head, looked at Zhuo Lingfeng, smiled, and said loudly: "What kind of person I am, Lu Bai, a hero in the world knows himself. I don't bother to tell lies.

Otherwise, you only need to say yes, and then sneak up on it later, do you think I can't think of this kind of rhetoric?
The reason why you ask me is because you believe that I will not lie! "

Zhuo Lingfeng struck with both palms, and said seriously: "Not bad!
You and I have different ideas, although we must be enemies.But you are not untrustworthy villains like Mu Gaofeng, so I believe what you say, so I want you to promise. "

Lu Bai smiled and sighed, "Thank you for trusting me!"

Suddenly raised his voice and shouted: "But today you say that you want to criticize my Songshan faction's real extermination faction first, and attack my Songshan faction's foundation behind.

Such a great shame and humiliation, my brother Zuo is a generation of talents, and the disciples of the Songshan School are also bloody men. Only if you Zhuo Lingfeng bleeds dry, or the blood of my Songshan School stains Songshan red, can this shame be washed away. There is no other way!
And all of this happened because of Liu Zhengfeng, and he still wanted to stay out of it, that was absolutely impossible!
If you are not used to it, then kill us quickly, and then go to assassinate my Songshan disciple, and see if you, Zhuo Lingfeng, die first, or my Songshan disciple dies first!
Although I, from Songshan, have no certainty of killing you, I definitely have the determination to kill you!

But if you want me to agree to the Songshan faction, don't make things difficult for Liu Zhengfeng.This matter has to be reported to Master Zuo, ask him to show me, I can't make the decision! "

Seeing his staunchness, everyone secretly praised him: "Good guy!"

Zhuo Lingfeng raised his eyebrows, his eyes sparkled, and he said suddenly: "I know you are not afraid of death, but I, Zhuo Lingfeng, can kill you anytime!
Your lives are not worth mentioning in my eyes, but I admire your courage to think and do, so I treat you as human beings, but you don't even want the most basic face?
Think about it clearly, you Songshan faction really want to tear themselves apart with me and decide whether to live or die? "

Lu Bai said calmly: "Face is for people to see, but do we still have face today?
And this thing, when it's time to tear it up, it has to be torn, and it has to be torn thoroughly! "

He said this without shame.

Everyone thought that the matter would be settled, but they didn't expect the Songshan faction to still not give in at this point, they couldn't help but looked at Zhuo Lingfeng and thought to themselves: "This matter is really difficult!"

In a flash, everyone understood Lu Bai's state of mind at this time.

Their three major eunuchs led soldiers to come hand in hand, aggressively, but one was wounded and two were restrained, and one of the disciples was killed and several were injured.In front of all the heroes in the world, after suffering such a big somersault, he had no choice but to agree to let Liu Zhengfeng's family go, in exchange for getting out.

Saying these words was their last stubbornness.

There is also a large part of the reason, which is that Zhuo Lingfeng can't win too much.

Jun thought: "It's too beautiful for you to step on the name of my Songshan School and protect Liu Zhengfeng's family.

How can there be the best of both worlds in this world?
Why do people in the world feel frightened when they hear the word "Leader of the Left"?That is in exchange for human life!

How Zuo Lengchan will deal with them in the future, don't even think about it, how can Lu Bai avoid your worries? ".

Zhuo Lingfeng saw Lu Bai's calm face, how could he not know their intentions, but he couldn't restrain his anger, and reprimanded: "The majestic Songshan Taibao is like a local ruffian. Am I really taught?"

"Ha ha……"

At this moment, Fei Bin laughed sharply and laughed, with tears streaming down his eyes, and hissed, "Hot meat?
You Zhuo Lingfeng trampled on my Songshan faction today, in your eyes, it is a chivalrous act, but my Songshan faction has earned a lifetime of fame, and the hard work of more than a dozen of us brothers has been in vain! "

Before he finished speaking, tears were streaming down his face, he gritted his teeth and said, "Zhuo Lingfeng, do you think you are a hero when people call you young hero?
As a chivalrous person, he pays attention to helping the poor, helping the weak, helping the weak, and helping the injustice.

There are so many unfair things in this world, can you get over it?Can you afford the price involved?

Who doesn't want to be a hero and be admired by thousands of people?

But throughout the ages, martial arts masters emerge in endlessly, but it is rare for a hero to emerge in hundreds of years!
why?It is because the name of a hero is not easy to bear!
The father of the founding father of the Emei School was Guo Jing and Guo Daxia, who was so famous at that time that everyone admired him, both black and white!

But Guo Jing became a generation of heroes, how much he paid and how much he lost, do you ever know?
You are young and fledgling, but you are better than us in martial arts, so you want to learn from others and become a hero?
Hehe, it's easy for you to kill me today, but if you want me to protect Liu Zhengfeng's family well and fulfill your chivalrous name, don't even think about it! "

He spoke these words eloquently, sonorously and forcefully, and what he said was not unreasonable, and everyone present was moved.

The standard of a hero is too high, not only martial arts are world-class, but also moral prestige.

The most important thing is that being a hero is too tiring.

So there are fewer and fewer heroes, and the real heroes are gone.

Zhuo Lingfeng is not a chivalrous man, let alone, but even if he killed all the Songshan faction present today, he still couldn't save the Liu family, so everything he did was a joke after all.

What's more, some people would say that the Songshan faction was only trying to frighten Liu Zhengfeng into killing Qu Yang, but Zhuo Lingfeng forced himself to become an enemy of the Songshan faction and killed the Liu family instead.

Zhuo Lingfeng wanted to get Lu Bai and the others to say that they would not bother Liu Zhengfeng's family anymore, but these people were determined to fight him after eating the weight.

He couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and said loudly: "You said that the name of a hero is hard to live up to, which is good, but I have never considered myself a hero!
What's more, a chivalrous man talks about his heart, courage, and deeds, not about the strength of his strength or how much he can gain! "

Speaking of this, he paused, looked around, and continued: "Because there are also good men in the market who value righteousness and despise life, and make promises, do you dare to say that they are not heroes?

Even among you present, there are many people who are better than me in virtue and more worthy of being a hero than me! "

Then he looked at Lu Bai, and said, "Your Songshan faction's century-old inheritance, and my personal strength are so different, it should benefit the martial arts.

But you are greedy for profit, and for the sake of the grand plan you insist on in your heart, you don't hesitate to kill people on trumped-up charges!
We must know that for those who practice martial arts, it is fundamental to act chivalrously and fight for righteousness, to eliminate the strong and support the weak.This should be the most basic education that every decent person receives at the beginning of martial arts!

But as your martial arts become more and more advanced and your power becomes stronger and stronger, you have long forgotten your original intentions and become a great disaster in the world! "

As he said that, he turned his eyes to Fei Bin: "As you said, there are as many injustices in this world as Hengsha, so I can't control them.

But the rivers and lakes are vast, and the world is full of different attitudes.

There are hypocrites who are hypocritical and treacherous, and there are true gentlemen who are glorious and noble.

There are people who fight for fame and fortune, and there are also people who are indifferent to fame and fortune.

There are unkind and unrighteous villains who plot secretly, and there are also heroic and heroic heroes who are tragic and vicissitudes.

There are counselors who look forward and backward, and are timid, and there are also righteous men who draw their swords to help when things are wrong.

There are careerists who look forward to establishing a king's hegemony, and there are small people who just want to live in peace!

There are good and evil among these people.

Everyone loves the good and hates the wicked.

So there are two distinct ways of righteousness and evil.

But there are also some ordinary people who are not kind, but they can't be called evil, and they live in this gray area that is neither black nor white.

Because the world is never black and white, everyone's deep-rooted ideas cannot be easily changed.

But for me, Zhuo Lingfeng, as long as those injustices are met, seen, and managed, then I can handle as much as I can.

As for not being able to meet and not being able to manage it, it is called beyond our power!
I also have a clear conscience!

This has nothing to do with the name of chivalry! "

What he said was like throwing a golden stone, and he spoke strictly.

Everyone couldn't help but startled when they heard it.

Zhuo Lingfeng turned around abruptly, grabbed Ding Mian's wrist again, and said loudly, "Say Zuo Lengchan is despicable and shameless, a wolf with ambition!"

Ding Mian said angrily: "You...you are delusional!."

Zhuo Lingfeng said slowly: "I asked you to tell me the purpose of your coming here, but you don't tell me. Let me think that you have a deep brotherhood and act like a tough guy, so I will scare you.

If you don't say this again, I really won't kill you, but I will cripple you and the two junior brothers with all their martial arts, so that you can't even beat an ordinary person!

I'm not a hero, but in your eyes, I'm just a demon cult monster who doesn't talk about faith.

And you Songshan faction talks about this, since I am incapable of saving the Liu family.

Then we will abolish you first, and then immediately rush to Mount Song to hunt and kill your disciples, we will all be ashamed! "

He said this sentence flatly, as if he was joking.But in those dark and deep eyes, there was an unbelievable light flashing.

The heroes were even more amazed, how could Ding Mian be punished all of a sudden?

Following Zhuo Lingfeng's words, he exerted all his strength.

Ding Mian suddenly felt that there would be a majestic force coming out at any time. The painful feeling was indescribable. In an instant, beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, and he tremblingly said: "You are dreaming! Even if ... Abolish me, and I won't say anything!"

Zhuo Lingfeng said calmly: "You are not afraid of being a useless person, would Lu Bai and Fei Bin be willing?"

Ding Mian's lips trembled.

Fei Bin roared angrily: "Zhuo Lingfeng, I, Fei Bin, provoked you from the beginning to the end today. If you want to use someone up, come to me!".

Zhuo Lingfeng said coldly: "You think I will forgive you, I will destroy you one by one from the oldest to the youngest!"

Lu Bai also said anxiously: "Today I am the one in charge, no matter if you want to kill or cut, you should come to me."

The Songshan disciples also unleashed their weapons one after another, and shouted: "Zhuo Lingfeng, you will kill us if you have the guts, and you want my sect leader to be humiliated in front of others, you are delusional!"

Amidst the angry shouts, several people waved their long swords, and the vicious tigers rushed towards Zhuo Lingfeng like a tiger.

Everyone saw that a few people opened their doors, this is a style of play that doesn't care about defense at all, facing a master like Zhuo Lingfeng, this is to die.

Zhuo Lingfeng didn't even look at it, he just flicked his sleeves, and an extremely strong gust of wind blew out, five or six people couldn't stand still, they all fell out and fell to the ground.
