I travel through the heavens as a human being

Chapter 135

On Mount Huashan, Xu Yang was stuck in a research dilemma, stuck at the last level, racking his brains, trying to break through the last difficulty in creating merit.

Jin Yiwei, who had hurried down the mountain before, came up the mountain again.

After coming down from the mountain, these Jinyiwei immediately conveyed the Huashan Sect's intention to cooperate with Jinyiwei to develop trade in the Western Regions to the Jinyiwei commander in the form of flying pigeons.

The news from the other side was also very fast. Within a few days, the news came back that the commander of the Jinyiwei agreed. Moreover, the commander of the Jinyiwei also emphatically gave instructions that when cooperating with the Huashan faction, he would rather have his own family. If you suffer a little loss here, don't offend the Huashan sect, especially don't offend the national master Xu Yang.

The reason for such an explanation was that in the capital, since Xu Yang left, Emperor Zhu Houzhao had launched a major rebellion, and the killing officials were almost going crazy.

Hundreds of people were beheaded in Caishikou every day. This situation lasted for ten days. Thousands of people were beheaded, and tens of thousands of people were implicated.

And until the commander received the information, His Majesty the Emperor was still asking the Jinyiwei and Dongchang people to continue the investigation.

It can be said that the major case initiated by Zhu Houzhao has a wide scope of influence and involves a large number of people, which is no weaker than the "Three Major Hongwu Cases" initiated by Zhu Yuanzhang.

This case showed the emperor's wrath, and the people of the world knew the majesty of the imperial power.

And Xu Yang was the trigger of all this. The commander of the Jinyi Guards had no regard for Xu Yang in the emperor's heart. He did not want to have any conflict with the new Imperial Master, so he conveyed such an order. .

In Huashan, the Jin Yiwei who received the order from the commander, after making some preparations, climbed to Huashan again, and together with Yue Buqun began to discuss how to develop the trade routes in the Western Regions, and what to do with the second trade team. Prepare.

Of course, what pleased these Jin Yiwei was that Yue Buqun still had a very clear bottom line. He did not take advantage of Jin Yiwei, but divided the interests of both parties very fairly.

While Xu Yang and Yue Buqun were each busy with their own "big things," a letter from Yamashita directly interrupted their state.

After reading the contents of the letter, Yue Buqun immediately called Xu Yang to discuss the matter in the letter.

It turns out that this letter was written by Zuo Lengchan, the head of the Songshan Sect. According to the letter, it says:
Disciples of the Songshan Sect discovered that someone from the Demon Sect was causing trouble in Henan Prefecture, and set up a church in the local area. They committed many crimes and committed many crimes. Later, the Songshan Sect encircled and suppressed the church, and wiped out the church. However, in the Demon Suppression Church, After speaking, it was discovered that the Demonic Cult had laid many hidden clues in Henan Mansion, and many believers had secretly sneaked in with evil intentions.

Later in the letter, Zuo Lengchan suggested to Yue Buqun, who was the leader of the Five Mountains Alliance at the time, that he could reorganize the Five Mountains Alliance army and kill all the evil cultists who violated the territory.

In the letter, the words and sentences are very particular, and the use of various words gives people a very urgent feeling, as if the Songshan Sect will be attacked by the Sun and Moon Demon Sect in the next moment.

But both Xu Yang and Yue Buqun ignored the urgency revealed in the letter. They even speculated that this letter was most likely written by Zuo Lengchan.

But these are all trivial matters. What really matters is what is the meaning of Zuo Lengchan writing this letter?What's the purpose?

The so-called evil cultists mentioned above are probably just excuses. What really needs to be paid attention to is the suggestion that Yue Buqun should "reform the army of the Five Mountains Alliance."

This matter is not a trivial matter. Once the Five Mountains Alliance army is re-formed, the Sun and Moon Demon Sect will definitely take corresponding measures. By then, both good and evil will be ready, and sooner or later a tragic event will break out. Fighting battle.

What is Zuo Lengchan going to do?
Do you really want to start a new round of war between good and evil?
What benefit will it bring to him, Songshan Sect?
Just to curb the development of the Huashan Sect?If you can't match the development, then you will stumble?But if you do this, it will do a lot of damage to the Songshan Sect.

Moreover, the most important thing is that Zuo Lengchan should have expected that the Huashan Sect would never agree to this matter. So what is his real purpose?

A series of questions arose in Xu Yang's mind, and he couldn't figure out the twists and turns. When he looked at Yue Buqun again, he found that his master, who was very scheming in the city, was also frowning at this time. It was obvious that I also don’t understand Zuo Lengchan’s intention.

Just when Xu Yang looked at Yue Buqun, Lao Yue also looked at him. His intention was self-evident, that he was asking him.

In this regard, Xu Yang was really helpless and could only shake his head and said:

"This letter from Zuo Lengchan came so strangely that I can't figure out what he means."

After hearing what Xu Yang said, Yue Buqun sighed softly, held the letter in his hand, frowned, and walked back and forth in the room.

Seeing Yue Buqun's helpless look, Xu Yang smiled and said:
"Master, don't worry about what he wants to do. We can just show him his tactics. As the saying goes, when soldiers come, they will be blocked, and when water comes, the soil will cover them up. Now the advantage lies with our Huashan sect. No matter how hard Zuo Lengchan tries, can he still produce three top masters? ?”

"You're right."

Xu Yang's words were agreed by Yue Buqun. At the same time, Yue Buqun also felt that he was making a fuss. The Huashan Sect is now different from what it used to be and is much stronger than the Songshan Sect.

That is to say, the time does not allow it now, otherwise Yue Buqun would have taken action and secretly killed Zuo Lengchan.

Thinking of this, Yue Buqun was already preparing to write a reply and refuse Zuo Lengchan's request.

Although he knew that after the rejection, Zuo Lengchan would definitely be dissatisfied and take action.

But in martial arts circles, after all, fists are used to explain truth. The bigger the fist, the stronger the truth. This is also one of the underlying rules of martial arts.

With the current strength of the Huashan Sect, it doesn't matter if it gets a little bad reputation. It doesn't hurt at all. If a force wants to develop and rise, there is no way to avoid the jealousy, malicious slander, and slander of others. How can there be any in the world? What a perfect good thing.

Now as long as the Huashan Sect is strong and powerful, no matter how many small tricks the Songshan Sect makes, do they still dare to go head-to-head with the current Huashan Sect?

At this time, the Huashan Sect is considered to be the third largest righteous sect in the world after Shaolin and Wudang. Not only does it speak loudly, but it can also stand up for its truth. Anyone who wants to go against the Huashan Sect must first think carefully. Let’s talk about three points.

In fact, at this stage, Yue Buqun has long been open-minded about some battles in the world. He now only hopes that the Huashan Sect can maintain its current development and not decline again.

Fight against the Sun and Moon Demon Cult, plunder the Demon Cult's territory, and gain benefits from the battle.

In the past, Yue Buqun might have been tempted by this, but now that he had the support of Western Region Business, Yue Buqun was somewhat disdainful of the interests that required risking his life and fighting for his disciples' lives.

And who can guarantee that the Huashan Sect will not fall into the quagmire of fighting with the Sun and Moon Demon Sect and fall into decline again? Then Yue Buqun is the sinner of the Huashan Sect.So now Yue Buqun only wants to develop steadily and continue to make money to improve his strength. Isn't he great?

Moreover, Yue Buqun also felt that it was a bit redundant for him to seize the position of leader of the Five Mountains Alliance. This position of leader of the Five Mountains Alliance did not provide much help to the Huashan Sect, but became more and more like a burden.

At this time, the Huashan Sect can be said to be unique among the Five Mountains, and its strength far exceeds that of the other four mountains, so the Songshan Sect can barely keep up.

Even the other Sanyue sects combined cannot compare with the Huashan sect.

In this state of three strong and weak, the other three mountains cannot provide effective help to the Huashan Sect. Instead, they are suspected of dragging down the Huashan Sect.

Moreover, the merger of the Five Mountains sects in the original work seems to be completely unrealistic now. Not to mention the problem of disunity among the Five Mountains, the distance between the Five Mountains sects alone makes this merger an empty talk.

So now Yue Buqun has some regrets about becoming the leader of the Five Sacred Mountains Alliance. The name just sounds nicer.The actual benefits are not much at all.

Even if Zuo Lengchan wanted to compete for the position of leader of the Five Sacred Mountains Alliance again, Yue Buqun might not block him, but would add fuel to the flames and give in to him.

"As expected, I disagree."

In the Songshan Sect, Zuo Lengchan looked at Yue Buqun's reply in his hand, but he just sneered, not too angry, because such a result was within his expectation.

The letter he sent earlier was just a formality. He didn't expect that the Huashan Sect would agree. The reason why he did it was to find a justifiable reason for his next plan.

After all, the Songshan Sect is a righteous sect no matter how you say it, and is a member of the Five Sacred Mountains Alliance. They still have to pay attention to methods when doing things.

Especially after the position of leader of the Five Sacred Mountains was snatched away by Yue Buqun, Zuo Lengchan changed his past domineering style and began to pay attention to the Songshan sect's style of conduct. He must be famous as a teacher and try to avoid being criticized.

Now with this letter, Zuo Lengchan can proceed with his plan with peace of mind.

Three days later, a piece of news spread rapidly in the world. Everyone who heard the news was shocked:
The Songshan Sect announced that it would break away from the Five Sacred Mountains Alliance and form an alliance with Shaolin Wudang. The three sects formed an alliance to fight against the Demon Sect.

As soon as this news came out, the world, especially the Zhengdao sect, was immediately surprised.

The Five Mountains Alliance has a long history. They have fought against the Sun Moon Demon Sect for hundreds of years and have left a great reputation in the world. Why did the Songshan Sect suddenly withdraw from the Five Mountains Alliance?This was too sudden.

Moreover, although the two sects of Shaolin and Wudang are also two pillars of the righteous way, they usually just sit back and watch the fight between the Five Mountains Alliance and the Sun and Moon Demon Sect. At most, they act as peacemakers when the two parties fight too hard. Instead of directly intervening in the fight between the two parties, why are the two factions now going to personally kill the other demon sect?

Now, as long as they are not fools, even the dullest Jianghu people will realize that there must be many twists and turns hidden in this.

In fact, there are a lot of things involved here, not only the battles between rivers and lakes, but also the undercurrents in the imperial court.

As the former said, the Songshan Sect is backed by the imperial court, and the imperial court is not monolithic. It is divided into many forces. The imperial forces behind the Songshan Sect have transformed from the original lineage of nobles to the current Dongshan Sect. factory.

However, as Zuo Lengchan became a top master, Dongchang's control over the Songshan Sect also weakened a lot. After all, the deterrent power of top masters was still there.

While Dongchang controlled the Songshan Sect, he was inevitably influenced by the Songshan Sect in the opposite direction, and provided the Songshan Sect with some court information.

It was through this channel that Zuo Lengchan learned the news that Xu Yang had become a national master, which made him determined to make such a choice.

In this regard, although Dongchang did not express their opinions clearly, their attitude was generally supportive. After all, the Huashan faction only called Jinyiwei on the Western Region trade matters, but they did not call Dongchang. This is called Dongchang. Some people can't stand it.

You must know that the factory guard dispute has been going on for a long time, and both sides have long said that they have many conflicts.

Although Dongchang was also wary of Xu Yang, the new imperial master, he would not shy away from him. In terms of closeness, who could be better than Dongchang? The leader was a eunuch, and he was also a eunuch who was close to the emperor.

Especially the current emperor Zhu Houzhao still has great trust in the eunuchs. Everyone in the world knows the reputation of the "Eight Tigers".

As for why the two Shaolin and Wudang sects came forward, Wudang and the Sun and Moon Demon Sect have long had old grievances. The inherited treasure Zhenwu Sword and the "Tai Chi Sutra" personally written by the founder of the sect, Zhang Sanfeng, are both from the Sun and Moon. The demon sect took it away and put it in someone else's treasure house.

But Shaolin has no choice, because recently Dongfang Bubai once again left Heimuya and sneaked into Shaolin to search for Shaolin's supreme magical skill "Yi Jin Jing". Although he was temporarily repelled, who knows when Dongfang Bubai will return. Will raid again.

It's no wonder Shaolin could bear it so well being stared at by such a great master.

As for giving the "Yi Jin Jing" to Dongfang Bubai, the Shaolin monks thought about it, but suppressed the idea.

Not only does Dongfang Bubai have an old grudge with Shaolin, but the "Yi Jin Jing" is a magical skill inherited by Shaolin and has rules that cannot be leaked. No one wants to be a sinner in the history of Shaolin, not even the current abbot, Master Fang Zheng. In no mood.

Moreover, Dongfang Bubai is the leader of the Sun and Moon Demon Sect, the largest demon sect leader in the world. If Shaolin gave away his magical skills because he could not withstand the pressure.

Once word of this gets out, what will people in the world think of Shaolin, bullying the weak and fearing the strong?Afraid of death?It can be said that Shaolin's thousand-year reputation will be gone by then, and the blow to Shaolin will definitely be fatal.

No one can afford this kind of consequences.

It is precisely because of such pressure that Shaolin has been trying every means to win over other forces to fight against Dongfang Bubai.

Among them, the Five Mountains Sword Sect, which could compete with the Sun and Moon Demon Sect, was also the one they valued extremely. After careful calculation, Zuo Lengchan fell into Shaolin's eyes.

After some persuasion, Zuo Lengchan, who was eager to break the situation, was also persuaded.

Therefore, this incident was apparently caused by the Songshan Sect, but secretly, Shaolin was the leader.
