Wulin martial arts hegemony record

Chapter 378 The reason
Xue Chang glanced at the immortal drunk formula on the coffee table, patted the arm of the chair with his hand, and fell into deep thought for a while.

Seeing that Xue Chang did not respond, Mrs. Qiu stood up, bowed deeply to Xue Chang, her head and hands almost touched the ground, and said very earnestly: "Master Xue, if you still feel resentful about Tang Tianshu, concubine I am willing to accept any punishment, even if it means taking my old lady's life, it doesn't matter, as long as you promise to treat my two poor children!"

Xue Chang hurriedly stepped forward to help her up, and said in his mouth: "Madam Qiu is serious. Tang Tianshu plotted against me, but he was also killed by me. This matter has passed for many years, and I have long ignored it. It is the duty of a doctor to save lives and heal the wounded. It stands to reason that without your request, Mrs. Qiu, we should take the initiative to lend a helping hand. It's just that I, Xue Chang, have always had a clear sense of grievances. If I accept this formula of immortal drunkenness, my Xiaoyao Sect will accept Tangmen's love. There is one thing that is not good Put your face down and settle it."

Mrs. Qiu was startled, and hurriedly asked: "I don't know what Master Xue said?"

"Madam Qiu, please sit down first. You told me your story just now, and I will tell you a story too."

Mrs. Qiu sat back in her original seat, worrying about gains and losses.

Xue Chang said slowly: "More than ten years ago, there was a man who was born in a family of military generals in the former dynasty. He didn't want to serve the court. He took his wife and children and lived in seclusion in the mountains. Once he accidentally rescued a young man. And took him home to recuperate, but this man took the opportunity to seduce his wife, who not only eloped with him, but also took away the martial arts secrets handed down from her husband's family. This man was so desperate that he set his house on fire, He wanted to set himself on fire, and there was his sleeping son in the house, but fortunately his servant rescued the child—”

Xue Chang looked directly at Mrs. Qiu, and said word by word: "The child later became my apprentice, and he never forgot revenge!"

Xue Chang wanted to see Mrs. Qiu's surprised appearance, but the other party seemed calm. He just lowered his eyes to avoid his sight, and fell into silence without moving. He didn't know what he was thinking. Under the white skin of Yu's wrist, there is a blue vein flickering...

After a while, Mrs. Qiu finally broke the silence: "That child is your big apprentice Xu Xi, right?"

Xue Chang nodded.

"If Master Xue hadn't mentioned this matter today, I would have almost forgotten about it..." Mrs. Qiu looked blankly at the void, and murmured: "I still vaguely remember that the people who watched the Xu family came back. When I was told the news that 'Xu Hao actually set himself on fire', I was really shocked, and I really regretted it at that time..."

Mrs. Qiu looked at Xue Chang, smiled wryly and said, "Master Xue, you may think what I said is ridiculous, but at that time we conspired to steal the martial arts secret books of many former warriors, and that was the first time that people were killed. Doing this kind of I am also worried about immoral things, but there is no way. Under my leadership, the Tang Sect fully cooperates with the court, but in the end, the Tang Sect's housekeeping ability-poison is strictly restricted by the court.

The elders were dissatisfied, and the Tang Sect wanted to survive. At that time, I, the Patriarch, was like sitting on a mountain of swords. Under the persecution of my tribe, I had to write a letter to the late emperor for help, hoping to relax the control on poisons.The late emperor did not agree, but instead sent Longwei to Bashu quietly to suggest to me, 'The Tang Sect can shift the focus of its sect development to improving martial arts, and the imperial court can secretly grant the Tang Sect some special powers'—"

Xue Chang was a little surprised: "You mean that the Tang Sect's act of quietly seizing the martial arts secret books of the former warriors came from the imperial court's initiative?!"

Mrs. Qiu looked at him, and said in a deep voice: "Those years Tang Sect's actions were very secretive, with the help of Longwei and Martial Inspection Division to cover it up, outsiders have no way of knowing. Head Xue, you can be so sure that this matter is mine. What the Tang Sect did was probably told to you by Longwei. I remember that Liu Lingying was the first commander of Longwei, and you are the son-in-law of the Goddess Palace. Longwei should not keep it secret from you, but did they ever tell you that Tang What the door did in Bashu was originally one of the tasks of Longwei."

Xue Chang opened his eyes.

Mrs. Qiu saw it in her eyes and said quietly: "Bashu is vast and the mountains are criss-crossing. Even if our Tang Sect abandons many industries and does not operate them, and let the clansmen search for traces of the former warriors hiding in the mountains day and night, it will not be too late. It is impossible to find so many people in just a few years, let alone get their detailed information accurately. It was Long Wei who told us all the information of these people, because according to the will of the late emperor, the Tang Sect has the ability to deal with those who do not want to. The rights of former warriors who worked for the Great Zhou and lived in seclusion in Bashu."

"What about other regions outside of Bashu?" Xue Chang couldn't help interjecting.

"Of course the Dragon Guards are still in charge." Mrs. Qiu showed a sneer: "The Shenwu Pavilion in the imperial palace is said to gather martial arts from all over the world, and some of the secret books are the credit of the Dragon Guards."

Xue Chang's heart skipped a beat.

Mrs. Qiu glanced at him, and said: "As far as I know, hunting down former warriors and enriching the collection of martial arts are the secondary tasks of Longwei. Attack weak targets and try not to provoke those with strong martial arts. Tangmen also learned these experiences from Longwei, so now Wei Weiran, the supreme elder of the Bashan School, was hiding in the Wu family in Changping Town. I don't know, but I haven't taken any action..."

Mrs. Qiu sighed: "In order to reunite the hearts of the family and stabilize my position as the head of the family, I chose this path, but I also know that Tangmen and Longwei are very different. Behind Longwei, there is the support of the emperor. No scruples, the Tang Sect is just a martial arts sect. If we rely on this power to act recklessly and fall into many traps, if the situation changes in the future, we may be killed. So I warned the clansmen that they would rather spend more trouble and think about other things The method achieves the goal, and you can't take it by force, but I didn't expect to avoid everything, and this accident happened to the Xu family, and I got retribution today!"

While Mrs. Qiu sighed, seeing Xue Chang's face darken, she immediately said in shame: "Oh, I almost forgot about Tang Tianshu plotting against you. Although he didn't instigate me, he did. It started because of me, if I hadn't agreed with Long Wei and took over this plan to steal martial arts, I would have planted evil thoughts in the hearts of young clansmen like Tang Tianshu in the long run, seeing Master Xue, your martial arts proficiency, would be greedy, secretly Poisonous hands—"

Speaking of this, Mrs. Qiu made a "plop", knelt down on her knees, and said with a sad expression: "Master Xue, I didn't want you to forgive me for saying this. You and your first disciple Xu Xi have treated me and Tang I am willing to accept any punishment imposed by the door! I only hope that you will be merciful and heal my son and grandson of their physical illnesses, so that they can live like normal people!——" She put her hands on the ground and said Kowtow to Xue Chang.

How could Xue Chang let her do this, it was too late to rush forward to stop him, he hastily used his internal energy, and put both hands on Mrs. Qiu.

Immediately, a majestic zhenqi rose from under Mrs. Qiu's body, which was strong yet soft. While lifting Mrs. Qiu's bowed body, she did not let her lose her balance and fall to the ground.

It should be known that Mrs. Qiu and Xue Chang were about eight feet apart, and she bowed down sincerely, not in vain, but Xue Chang was able to stop it while sitting.Although Mrs. Qiu had never fought Xue Chang before, she, who was the leader of a faction, felt the strength of the other party's martial arts, and she couldn't help being shocked and even more uneasy.

"Madam Qiu doesn't need to be like this, please get up quickly!" Xue Chang stepped forward immediately, trying to help his opponent up.

Mrs. Qiu knelt without moving, but said in a trembling voice: "I also ask Master Xue to agree to my request!"

Xue Chang looked at Mrs. Qiu, who looked sad and pleading, and his thoughts changed sharply: What Mrs. Qiu said really surprised him, but this woman who can occupy the position of Patriarch of the Tang Sect for more than ten years with a strong hand is not simple. , it is uncertain how much of what she said was true.However, it is very possible that Longwei was involved, because he vaguely remembered Xu Zhen, the deputy commander of Longwei in Luoyang, saying the sentence, "Those warriors from the former dynasty did not want to serve the court, so how could the court care about their lives!" ', the indifference on her face... But no matter what, it should be true that this woman's son and grandson suffer from congenital diseases, and the efforts she has made to protect her children over the years will not be fake... …

Xue Chang pondered and said: "Mrs. Qiu, you used the antidote to help me and Palace Master Gu in Tianzun Sect's underground palace. I always remember this kindness. The grievances about Tang Tianshu have been wiped out, and you don't have to worry about it anymore. But However, my apprentice Xu Xi has always been brooding about his parents, as his master, I can't ignore it!"

"Master Xue needs my concubine to do, please feel free to ask, I will obey!" Mrs. Qiu clasped her fists in both hands and responded in a deep voice.

"I haven't told Xu Xi the truth about this matter. I originally wanted to let him go to the Tang Sect to settle accounts with you after he has achieved great martial arts and made great contributions to the country. But today's matter has come to an end, so why don't you let me go?" That disciple called, told him the truth, let him make a decision, and see how to solve it, do you think it will work?"

Although Xue Chang's tone was inquiring, Mrs. Qiu didn't dare to be negligent, and immediately responded: "The concubine is at the disposal of Master Xue!"

Xue Chang immediately left the hall and told the servants, "Hurry up and call Xu Xi."

Back in the hall, seeing Mrs. Qiu still kneeling on the ground, he persuaded her to get up again.

This time, Mrs. Qiu did not insist.

After she sat down, Xue Chang asked calmly: "Madam Qiu, there is something I want to ask you for advice, I don't know—"

"Master Xue, please tell me, as long as I know, I will tell the truth." Mrs. Qiu responded sincerely.
