[Comprehensive martial arts] Holy Monk

But it is said that Fang Tianzhi left Anhui, went to Dexiang, traveled all the way, and returned to helping the poor, but no Yuan soldiers discovered his identity.This year, from summer to autumn, in just a few months, heroes rose up in the hinterland of the Central Plains. Apart from Zhu Yuanzhang and others, several other rebel armies broke out in great momentum, triggering the imperial court to send troops to encircle and suppress. Pay attention, you can vaguely hear "Mingjiao monsters are making trouble" and so on, and you can't help but think of Xu and Zhu.

These two seem to have joined the Ming religion.

On the way, Fang Jiaozhu compared this Mingjiao career with his own old line of work, and suddenly felt that his plan was not small, but his ambition was far-reaching, which was quite admirable.Thinking of Mingjiao, he thought of Yang Xiaolai again, and the fingers that were twirling the Buddha string unconsciously stopped for a while.

I haven't heard from Ji Xiaofu for many years, and I don't know how she is now.

Fang Jiaozhu thought about it absent-mindedly, and suddenly came back to his senses, thinking, hey!What does the poor monk want to do!Emei is rich and powerful, no matter what she is, her current situation is always better than that of a bald donkey like me!

Then he hurried on his way again.

After traveling until noon, a torrent of white water gradually appeared in front of the road.Looking closer, it is a large lake embedded on the green grass. At this time, the sky is as blue as water, the white clouds stop and stop, and the breeze is blowing. Thousands of golden spots are surging on the lake, which is both magnificent and beautiful.

Fang Tianzhi rushed to the shore of the lake, but saw dozens of people gathered around the ferry, as if they were all people who wanted to cross by boat.He had just blended into the crowd when he heard the sound of horseshoes in the distance. Not long after, a small group of Yuan soldiers rode up to him, and they reined in their horses first and shouted: "Recently, important criminals from the imperial court have fled here. Sealed! Anyone who comes here to listen and pass by will be regarded as spies and executed on the spot!" After that, the cavalry behind him divided into two groups, one group rode back and forth, and waved their whips to disperse the crowd, while the other group Turning off his horse, he rushed to the ferry boat by the lake like a wolf and a tiger, shouting: "This boat has been requisitioned, everyone get off the boat quickly!"

When Fang Tianzhi heard the words "Imperial court criminal", he couldn't help being slightly startled, first he raised his hand and pressed the bamboo hat, and then he secretly looked at this group of Yuan soldiers.Taking a closer look, one can see that although this team of cavalry is strong and strong, they are very aggressive, but they don't know martial arts.It was said that they wanted to search for repeat offenders, but when they dispersed the crowd, they didn't observe everyone's appearance, nor did they have any picture scrolls in their hands to compare, which is really strange.Look at the leader again, his eyes are only on the Yuan Bing who seized the ferry, as if he doesn't care about the others.

What do Yuan soldiers want these civilian ships for?

Fang Tianzhi was suspicious, and after leaving with the crowd, he looked for an opportunity to turn back and stalk the group of Yuan soldiers from afar.I saw that after they received the boat, they assigned their own people to drive the boat, and the rest of them led horses and rode on the bank, and traveled several miles away, heading straight for a newly built big village by the water.

The stockade is divided into two parts, one is built on the water and is only used to gather boats, the other is on the shore, with horses outside and towers built, people inside the fence are swaying, and patrols keep coming and going.Fang Tianzhi waited patiently for half a day. After sunset, he quietly walked into the army stronghold, intercepted a lonely yuan soldier and dragged him to a place of shelter. What are you going to arrest?"

The Yuan soldier was in so much pain that he couldn't even cry out, his legs trembled and said: "I don't know either. The officer didn't give orders."

Fang Tianzhi asked again: "Why did you come here to camp? Why do you want to confiscate civilian ships?"

Yuan Bing begged bitterly: "I really don't know. The officer wants to collect the ship, so we went to collect the ship. The officer said that he would pull out the camp and come here to station, so we came."

When Fang Tianzhi heard this sentence, his heart moved: "Where did you set up your camp?"

Yuan Bing said: "It was originally at the foot of Andao Ridge, not far from here, but not near the water's edge. In order to guard the ships, the troops came here separately."

Fang Tianzhi didn't know what the hell Andao Ridge was, he just asked: "What are you doing in Andao Ridge?"

Yuan Bing said: "On Andao Ridge, there is a group of bandits known as the Wind Chaser Gang, who have harbored important criminals from the imperial court."

When Master Fang heard this, he thought that he didn't come here to arrest me, but he didn't know who had been discovered and triggered such a big battle that the imperial court actually sent troops to encircle and suppress.But after thinking about it, I realized that something was wrong. Since the Mongols knew that the man was in Andoring, why did they divide their troops and collect their ships here?But when asked again, Yuan Bing only said he didn't know.

Seeing this, Fang Tianzhi slapped the Yuan Bing on the chest, beat him until he was breathless, carried him out of the camp with his armpit, and went back to the water camp to see the boat.There were not many patrolling soldiers in the water fortress, and it was dark all around, and many boats were berthed in one place, as if Yuan soldiers didn't care what happened to these boats, and the purpose of collecting boats was to seal the lake and search for people.

Fang Tian didn't have anything else to do, so he didn't make wild guesses by himself, and planned to go to the Chasing Wind Gang to take a look.The hills in central Hunan are endless, and there are countless mountains, and Andaoling is only a dozen miles away in the southwest.After nightfall, the weather is no longer clear during the day, the stars and the moon are covered by thick clouds, and it is difficult to see five fingers in the forest.Fang Tian was hidden among the trees, and saw a campfire from a distance, at first glance, it seemed that there were two or three thousand soldiers, and they surrounded Andao Ridge.

When he got closer, he felt faint breathing sounds on the nearby trees, as if there were people from the martial arts hidden among the ordinary soldiers.It's just that his martial arts attainments are unsurpassed, until he sneaked up the mountain without making a sound, those warriors failed to find him.

Andao Ridge is not a tall and steep mountain. When Fang Tianzhi turned his head and looked down at the open place on the top of the mountain, he could still vaguely see Yuan soldiers by the firelight of the camp at the foot of the mountain.

Since Fang Tian went up the mountain, he has also bypassed several checkpoints. Looking at the appearance of the people, they seem to be members of the Wind Chaser Gang on the mountain.Now at the top of the mountain, there is only a wall built of huge stones and logs, which is more than two feet high. Under the wall, there are people patrolling and guarding back and forth, and monitoring the movements of Yuan soldiers at the foot of the mountain.

Although these helpers are more or less skilled, they are really commonplace.Fang Tianzhi breathed lightly, pressed his hands on the stone protrusions on the wall, and with a little help, he rose into the air and climbed up the wall of the village like a gecko swimming on the wall.When he came up, he found a blind spot, and within a short time, another guard looked at him, but he only saw a silent darkness, and he had already sneaked away without a sound.

A series of houses were built inside the wall, Fang Tianzhi avoided people, and after a while, he came to one of the brightly lit halls.It is strange to say that there are many patrol posts of the Chasing Wind Gang, but there is no one guarding outside the hall. Fang Tianzhi easily leaned against the window, and just heard a person say: "The Mongols have surrounded three people here. For four days, none of the people we sent out to deliver the letter ran out. How can it be better to sit and eat now?"

After the man said that, there was a chatter in the hall.

"If you want to sit and eat, you have to see if the Tartars will give you a chance. I think they will fight up soon."

"It's not a big deal for the dog tartars to encircle the mountain with heavy troops, but they brought a group of masters here. We can't beat them, and we can't even run away!"

"It's a big deal to fight them desperately. Killing one will not lose money, and killing two will earn one! Can we be bullied by the Chasing Wind Gang?"

"How can we fight with 3000 people with hundreds of people? I think it is the best if we can make big things into small things. After all, the Mongols have lived in this country, and our family has a small business. Why bother to form a relationship with them?" Enmity comes. Brother Qiao, do you think this is the truth?"

There was a moment of silence in the hall.

As soon as Fang Tianzhi took note of this "Brother Qiao", he heard someone say: "The Tartars use the excuse of searching for important criminals, but they just want to take us down without bloodshed. You are all heroes, you must not listen to their deceit." Word."

"Then, all the dozen or so gangs in central Hunan can't be tricked by the Mongols?"

Then Brother Qiao sighed again: "Since the collapse of our Yunshan faction, other factions have either been made money to open their doors, or have been bloodbathed. As for those who voted for the imperial court as lackeys, it doesn't matter! The Tartars have always been There is only one excuse, that is, to search for the criminal, hehe, where did the criminal come from!"

"Although we didn't see the criminal, we only heard that the Tartars would follow wherever Brother Qiao went. Could it be someone from the Yunshan faction that the imperial court wanted the criminal?"

This was said with ulterior motives, even Fang Tianzhi didn't see anyone, he was dissatisfied and sneered four times.But before the person surnamed Qiao could speak, another person suddenly shouted: "Junior Brother, stop talking nonsense!"

Fang Tianzhi took advantage of the sound of shouting, stretched out a finger to poke a hole in the window paper, glanced into the hall, and saw a thin man in yellow robe arching his hands inwardly: "Master Brother, I’m not talking nonsense. It’s just that what’s the regulation now, you’re sending me a message?”

There were seven or eight people in the hall, except for the man in the purple robe, the rest were seated in two rows, each silent.At that moment, a young man with bushy eyebrows and big eyes suddenly stood up from the seat on the right, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "People from my Yunshan faction came to the Chasing Cloud Gang with good intentions to remind them, but their skills were inferior to others, and they were followed by the dog tartars." It's too late, so I'm going down the mountain to say goodbye. After we leave, I hope that Chief Chen won't believe the Tartars' nonsense and ruin the foundation of our ancestors."

The man in the purple shirt at the top said: "Brother Qiao, stay here. The junior brother has offended me a lot, so please don't blame me for being troublesome. We, the Eighteenth School in Central Hunan, are in the same spirit, and the Chasing Wind Gang has never been afraid of troubles from good friends. Let's say goodbye, don't do it again. carry."

As soon as his words fell, some people in the hall relaxed their brows, while others frowned more tightly.

When the man surnamed Qiao heard the words, he bowed and bowed, as if feeling a little respectful, and sat back on the chair again.

The man in the yellow shirt simply sneered and said: "This is the end of the matter. Opening the door to welcome people is breaking the house, and closing the door to reject the enemy is the same. The broom star has come, and the Tartars are determined not to make us feel better. It is useless for us to do anything. Discuss shit!"

Chief Chen said in a deep voice: "If the Tartars really want to destroy our Eighteen Sects in Central Hunan, they will come to our door sooner or later, so what does it have to do with Brother Qiao!"

The man in the yellow shirt said angrily: "Then we will have to wait for death!"

There was silence in the hall again.

"Yes, Master, what do you think should be done?"

"Wouldn't this be a dead end now!"

Gang Leader Chen glanced at his subordinates, and slowly said: "Why is this a dead end? There is still a way out, did you hear that? As long as you vote for the Tartars, you will have life, wealth, and wealth." He smiled. After a while, he asked the man in the yellow shirt with a pleasant face, "Junior brother, do you think this idea is still possible?"

The man in the yellow shirt suddenly turned livid, but he just didn't speak.

The big guys in the hall looked at each other, and one of them saw the expression of the leader of the gang, and suddenly opened his mouth to agree, "I think the leader of the gang is right. If the green hills are left, there is no need to worry about no firewood. How long can the Tartars stay in my Chasing Wind Gang? Treat them Let's go, we are on our own territory, and we can do whatever we want."

After he finished speaking, he waited for a while, but no one agreed.Only Chief Chen nodded thoughtfully: "What's more, after all, the Mongols are in the country, we have taken refuge in them, and we are doing things for the court. It's justified, why not?"

The man who agreed patted the table: "That's exactly the truth! Everyone, what do you think?"

This time, someone responded, and the other person on the right nodded frequently: "I can only see it like this." However, before he finished speaking, a cold light flashed in the hall, and the man in the yellow shirt suddenly pulled out his long sword and pointed at the A person's chest is a thorn.

This came so unexpectedly that the man let out a scream and fell down beside the table, knocking over the teacup.The man in the yellow shirt pulled out his sword, blood splashed three feet in front of everyone's eyes, everyone was so shocked that they sat where they were and did not dare to move.

The man in the yellow shirt didn't hesitate, he raised his sword and ran forward, and stabbed at his fellow disciple who agreed to vote for Tartar.His sword skills are ordinary in Fang Tianzhi's eyes, but in this third-rate gang, it is rare and exquisite.The fellow sect couldn't hide, rolled on the ground in embarrassment, and shouted to Chief Chen: "Master, save me!"

Gang leader Chen just sat at the head with a smile, watching the younger brother murder and commit murder.After the man in the yellow shirt stabbed the man to death again, he slowly looked at the others and asked, "Is there anyone who wants to vote for the Tartars?" He stood up, walked to the center of the hall, looked around, Don't be a hero who looks forward to it, "The Mongols treat the Han people like livestock, but we can't treat ourselves as other people's livestock. The eighteen schools in central Hunan are connected with each other and passed down for generations. The martial arts of the Zhuifeng Gang are insignificant, but if we want to Compared with chivalry, he is unwilling to lose to Wudang Shaolin. The dog tartar bloodbathed the other [-] sects, and we have a sworn enemy with us. He came to provoke us, and we will return blood for blood and teeth for teeth. Whoever dares Surrender, the one surnamed Chen will send him to the King of Hades first!"

After he finished speaking, he saw that there was no one who was strange in the hall, so he turned around and walked to the back hall, and told the man in the yellow shirt beside him: "Junior brother, come with me—"

"Amitabha!" A Buddha's cry suddenly sounded.

Everyone's expressions changed instantly, and they didn't expect someone to touch the mountain.Chief Chen and his yellow-clothed junior were surprised, and immediately looked at the window together, four eyes pierced like swords, and fell on a young monk in gray clothes.

The monk quietly stood alone in the dimly lit place, his face was like a qionghua, his clothes were like the shadow of the moon, he smiled slightly at the leader Chen and said: "The poor monk Shaolin Temple has a good intention, and he misunderstood the important matter. Live and die with all heroes."
