Chapter 878 "Old Friends" (1)

As soon as the heroes left, Zhong Xin felt very relaxed, and said, "Young Xia Chu, thanks to you for sending them away, otherwise, our Tianshan faction wouldn't know how to deal with them." Glancing at the Tie Jingang couple, he said : "Master Tie, Mrs. Tie, when will the virtuous couple leave? I can see you off." Qiao Luocha said: "Second Hero Zhong, there is no need to send each other off. My husband and I have decided to follow Shaoxia Chu around. When will he leave?" When we leave Tianshan, we will leave at any time. The Tianshan faction is so big, can't it house a few people?"

Zhong Xin smiled awkwardly, and said: "The Xian couple misunderstood me. After the friends from Yinmahe return to Yinmahe, they can go south to participate in the King Conferring Conference. There is more than enough time. The two of you are going back to the Tie family now. Zhuang, and then go to the holy altar of the Persian religion, the time is about the same. But if it is delayed for a day or two, I am afraid that I will miss the deadline for the meeting." Tie King Kong said: "What are we going back to Tiejiazhuang? Tiejiazhuang has been taken by me. It was set on fire." Zhong Xin was taken aback, and said, "What? Master Tie, why did you burn your own house?" Tie King Kong said, "Why? It's not because of the Persian holy religion. A month ago, the Persian holy The people from the church came to Tiejiazhuang and said nonsense about unifying the Western Regions. They also gave us invitations and told us to attend the King Conferring Conference at that time. I said that if we don’t participate, what will happen? Those people just said if we don’t participate I couldn’t see the sun tomorrow, and my wife and I were so angry that we fought with them, and as a result, my wife and I almost couldn’t see the sun of the next day.” Speaking of this, he paused and glanced at the masked woman.

The masked woman said: "Master Iron and Mrs. Iron are very good at martial arts, but the Persian Holy Cult has a lot of people, and the Master Iron and Mrs. Iron are outnumbered, so they will be defeated by them. Half a month ago, I was defeated by the Persian Saints." People from the religious sect hunted me down and fled to Tiejiazhuang. Mrs. Tie recognized me as a godsister when she saw that I was pitiful. The Lord did not agree with them, so a fight broke out. Fortunately, there were not many pursuers, so the three of us repelled them. Afterwards, Brother Tie and Sister Gan decided to dismiss the servants at home and set fire to the whole Tiejiazhuang. It was burned. It was my fault, which caused them to lose their home."

Tie King Kong said: "Sister, I don't like to hear what you say. We are at odds with the Persian Holy Cult. Even without you, we will fight with the Persian Holy Cult after we participate in the King Conferring Conference. We have nothing to do with it at all. I thought about submitting to them, let alone accepting their bullshit rewards."

Zhong Dao said: "The loyalty of the virtuous couple is commendable, and I feel ashamed." Qiao Luocha said, "Second Hero Zhong, does Senior Zhong have any important matters to do? There are so many people here, but he doesn't come out, it doesn't seem like His character." Zhong Xin sighed, and said: "I don't know much about this matter, let me tell you the truth, my grandfather has been in retreat for half a month on this matter." Fang Jianming said: "What is it? Just now In the hall, Brother Leng doesn’t seem to know either.” Zhong Dao said: “Only my father and elder brother know about this matter besides my grandparents. Now, my father should also tell Uncle Leng about this matter. Once Uncle sees the clue, with his character, he is determined to get to the bottom of it."

When the four returned to the hall, only Zhong Jie stayed in the hall.Seeing the four of them come back, Zhong Jie said with a smile: "Young Xia Chu, I knew you would send those people away. There are only a handful of people in the world who can make friends with Uncle Leng." Zhong said: "Brother, it's a pity You missed a great opportunity, Chu Shaoxia's martial arts, tsk tsk, far exceeded my expectations." Suddenly thought of something, he said in surprise: "Chu Shaoxia, you seem to understand our Tianshan School's swordsmanship, What's going on here?"

Fang Jianming smiled and said: "I don't know the sword skills of your sect. I am not only a friend of brother Leng, but also brother Zhong Tao. I have seen his sword skills before. I was a knife learner. After learning the sword , and there is no system, I can use whatever comes to my mind, those sword moves just now were all performed from my memory, and compared with the authentic ones, they are far behind." Zhong Xin said in shock: "Chu Shaoxia trusts you It has the effect of turning the ordinary into a miracle. If you learn the authentic, I think even Uncle Leng will be too much. Uncle Leng has only a handful of friends, and the little uncle has not many friends. Over the years, I have never heard of it. They mentioned you, but Chu Shaoxia really did not leak it."

Fang Jianming laughed, and said: "Where, where, there are not only unknown masters in the world, there are many unknown people, and their martial arts are terrible." Zhong Xin nodded, and said: "Grandpa and Daddy follow the same way. I said it." Zhong Jie smiled and said, "Young Xia Chu, just now my grandfather sent someone down to see you." Before Fang Jianming could react, Zhong Xin changed his face and said, "What? Grandpa wants to see you." See him?" Zhong Jie said: "Second brother, what's the fuss about this, just because you don't know Chu Shaoxia, doesn't mean that grandpa doesn't know Chu Shaoxia, you better think about it."

Fang Jianming said: "I'm really sorry for disturbing the old man. Master Tie, Mrs. Tie and this girl are all my good friends now. May I let them go too?" Zhong Jie laughed and said, "Tie King Kong is pretty The name of Rakshasa is well-known in the martial arts. If my grandfather knows they are coming, he will definitely come out to meet the guests. As for this girl, my grandfather will definitely see her." The masked woman said: "Senior Zhong still remembers the little girl. Girl, little girl is very honored." Zhong Jie said: "Young lady gave my grandfather a great gift the first year she came to the Western Regions, how could he forget it? Four, please follow me."

After Zhong Xin led the four of them out of the hall, Zhong Jie was the only one left in the hall. He patted his head, thought for a while, and murmured to himself: "Brother, let me think more, what is it that makes me think?" ?Grandpa knows Chu Shaoxia, why haven’t I heard of it? By the way, he said that he used to use knives, and he was a friend of Uncle Leng and Uncle Xiao. This range is very small. After thinking about it, only One person fits..." Thinking of that name, once it is mentioned, it can be regarded as a thunderous name, and I couldn't help being startled, and said: "Is it really him? Isn't he already... Bah, bah, I'm so confused, besides him, Who would dare to be friends with Uncle Leng? Haha, even the ghost and god Nie Huangjie couldn't kill him, so what in the world can be difficult to stop him."

The residence of Zhong Zidan and his wife was built on top of a snow peak.To reach the peak, one must pass through a narrow and long mountain path. On one side of the mountain path is a cut wall, and on the other side is an abyss of thousands of feet. Walking on it, even a martial arts master would feel a little terrified.Leng Muyun and his wife live in the ice palace on the other side of the fork. Although that road is dangerous, if you really want to slip or something, you will fall to your head and bleed at most. It will never be like this road. Once you fall down, you can't climb up again.Therefore, when the two children went to see Zhong Zidan and his wife, they were either accompanied by Leng Muyun or Zhong Jinling every time. They were afraid that if they were not restrained, they would become naughty.

Zhong Jie was used to walking this road, so naturally he would not be afraid, but Fang Jianming and the others were walking for the first time, although they were not afraid, but when they thought that there was a cliff as straight as a knife's edge, they always felt a little hairy.The mountain wind blows, whistling, and ordinary people, let alone walking at this moment, can't even stand firmly, and have to climb a little bit.

After finally walking the mountain path, the five people came to a wooden house. The people in the house thought they had heard movement outside, and only heard the wooden door open with a "ah!" A middle-aged man who looked less than 50 years old was He came out first, followed by Zhong Haoran and Leng Muyun.Zhong Jie quickened his pace, walked up to the middle-aged man, and said respectfully: "Grandfather, I have invited Chu Shaoxia. Besides, Master Tiezhuang and his wife and Fengcheng Master are also here." Fang Jianming and Tie Jingangqiao Qiao Luosha hurried up Step forward, salute the middle-aged man.The masked woman reached out and took off the veil on her face, revealing a stunning face, bowed to the middle-aged man, and said: "Little girl Feng Feiyan, I have seen Senior Zhong."

The middle-aged man was Zhong Zidan, and he laughed and said: "Miss Feng, it's not like we haven't seen each other before when we fought against the Blood Hand Sect in Hangzhou, so don't be so unreasonable. The pair of value you gave to the old man Liancheng's dragon and phoenix jade carvings, I like them very much, and I have been looking for a chance to return the gift. However, Tianshan has no other treasures except snow lotus, and it would be too light to give the snow lotus, so I have never returned the gift, ashamed, ashamed." Feng Feiyan said: "Senior Zhong is highly respected in the martial arts world. What a little girl does is just the respect that a young martial artist should show. You don't have to take it to heart." Zhong Zidan sighed, and said: "The matter of your city, I have also heard that the methods of the Persian Holy Religion are cruel, and people and gods are angry together, and this old man has also come to find them for this matter." Zhong Haoran was surprised: "Father, when did you go to the altar of the Persian Holy Religion?" Zhong Zidan said : "If I let you know, can I still go and succeed?" To the four people: "Four people, please enter the room and discuss in detail."

After everyone entered the room, Zhong Zidan's wife, Zhong Peilan, and a veiled woman came out from the back hall. The masked woman was still holding tea.The four of Fang Jianming saw Zhong Peilan pouring tea for themselves, and they all got up in a hurry. This honor, counting the martial arts, is afraid that they will not be able to find anyone other than Zhong Zidan's peers.After the guests settled down for a while, Zhong Zidan set his eyes on Fang Jianming, stared at him for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Nephew Fang Xian, I am very pleased to see you again at this time, is your adoptive father okay? Fang Jianming said: "I'm ashamed to say that after coming out of Jueming Cliff, I haven't had time to visit my adoptive father and the old man. However, the old man's body has always been strong, and I think he is still healthy."

Zhong Zidan let out a long sigh, and said: "My body is not as good as your adoptive father's. For the past two years, I feel that my body is about to die." Everyone was shocked when they heard this.Leng Muyun said: "Uncle, you are in good health, why would you say such a thing suddenly?" Zhong Haoran also said: "Daddy, you look older than your child, you can live at least another five or sixty years .”

Zhong Zidan smiled and said, "If you live another five or sixty years, won't you become an old monster? I say that for a reason." After a pause, he said, "I heard that the desert city was broken by the Persian Holy Cult. The Persian Holy Cult came with bad intentions, so I sneaked down the mountain without telling anyone. After arriving at the altar of the Persian Holy Cult, I revealed my identity and said that I wanted to see their Pope. Who knew, they said that the Pope was practicing in seclusion, and finally A person called the Holy Messenger of Light came out and negotiated with me. I asked him why the people in the desert city were slaughtered, and he actually said that those people betrayed God, and they were punishing them on behalf of God. Their Persian tricks, I I didn't understand, so I wanted to prove my martial arts with him. He shook his head and called out some kind of flame messenger. After I fought with that flame messenger, I couldn't help being surprised, the opponent's martial arts were not inferior to mine. After hundreds of moves, I suddenly felt a bit out of breath, at this moment, a Persian ran in in a panic, muttering something in his mouth, the Holy Angel of Light stopped immediately, took his subordinates, and hurried away , I had no choice but to withdraw from the altar and return to Tianshan.”

After Fang Jianming listened, he hurriedly asked: "Mr. Zhong, does the Holy Envoy of Light have any rank?" Zhong Zidan thought for a while, and said, "I didn't ask that, but the Flame Envoy seems to have a rank. I don't know." If you heard it wrong, it should be level eleven. The Light Sacred Envoy can command the Fire Emissary, I think if he has a level, he should be level twelve." Hearing this, Fang Jianming's face became dignified, and he said in a deep voice: " The Persian Holy Cult is indeed full of masters. I met one of them a few days ago. One claimed to be a sixth-level dharma king with extremely high martial arts. According to him, he taught two levels of Chinese dharma kings. One is a sixth-level dharma king and the other is a tenth-level dharma king There are three grades of guardians, one is the third-level guardian, one is the sixth-level guardian, and the other is the ninth-level guardian. I asked him if the Pope has any grades, and he said no. If there is, it must be at least the twelfth grade. Based on what you have always said, above the tenth level of Dharma king, there are eleventh level of envoys, and the next level should be the twelfth level of holy envoys, and the Pope is the ruler of the whole religion, so it should be above the twelfth level."

Tie King Kong and Qiao Luocha were horrified when they heard this, Tie King Kong said: "In this way, isn't it another Bloody Hand Sect?" Zhong Zidan said: "When they really unified the Western Regions, I'm afraid that in the past the The Blood Hand Sect is no match for it. After all, the Blood Hand Sect was scattered back then, and it is hard to see such a unified large area." Leng Muyun said: "Uncle, don't be too pessimistic. I will never sit idly by." Zhong Zidan sighed: "Most of us old people are dead, except for me, there are only Dao Shen and Zhu Xiaobai left. After the battle of Qilian Mountain, Dao Shen withdrew. Wulin no longer cares about the affairs of Wulin. And Zhu Xiaobai has become the envoy of Zhengtian Sect and has no ability to call. On the whole, the only one that can compete with the Persian Holy Sect is Zhengtian Sect. But the relationship between these two religions is ambiguous , no one can tell whether they will conflict."

Fang Jianming laughed suddenly, and said: "I heard that Zhengtian Sect has grown a lot in recent years. If Dugu Sect Master has the heart, he will never watch the Persian Sacred Sect dominate the Western Regions. A tiger without a mountain is already very scary." Now, the tiger with the top of the mountain can go down the mountain to eat people at any time?" Zhong Zidan didn't know what he was worried about, so he just said, "I hope so." Then, with a serious expression on his face, he said: "Nephew , do you still remember how many masters of the blood hand sect ran away?"

Fang Jianming couldn't help being a little surprised when he asked about the Bloody Hand Sect, but he still thought about it and said, "Among the Sun, Moon, and Xing, the latter two are all dead, except for Sun Zuo Yifeng. In the current situation, among the seven evil gods, there is also a white-clothed evil god missing. A large group of guest officials, all of them died, and the good ones also escaped from the Blood Hand Sect in time. Those who were captured also swore in public that they would not harm the martial arts in the future As for the four heavenly kings of wine, sex, wealth, and qi, 36 heavenly gangs, 72 earth demons, etc., many of them are dead, and those who are still alive will not be able to change their evil ways, but they will not be able to achieve anything."

Zhong Zidan took out a letterhead, handed it to him and said, "Look at this letter." Fang Jianming took it in a daze, opened it, and saw that it said: "Brother Zhong is well? I miss you very much. My brother will never forget my love for you. Twenty days later, my brother will come to visit me, and I hope my brother can hold his sword!" The signature is "old friend". Fang Jianming looked at the date, calculated it, and lost his voice: "This 'old friend' Isn't it coming tomorrow?" Zhong Zidan said: "Yes. I retreated for fifteen days just to wait for this 'old friend'. I suspect it is the remnant of the Blood Hand Sect."
