The counterattack of the villains

Xu Fengnian and Zheng Zha returned to the small courtyard. He didn't directly say whether he could cut it or not, and planned to wait until he saw someone.

At this time, there were dozens of Taoist priests in blue Taoist robes standing beside the gate of the courtyard, guarding a gorgeous sedan chair with two cloth banners erected on both sides of the sedan chair.

When the two came back, Jiang Ni was still tending the vegetables in the vegetable garden as if no one else was there, her heart was surprisingly big.

Xu Fengnian went straight to the vegetable garden, and said to Jiang Ni speechlessly: "So many people are staring at you, why do you still grow vegetables?"

Jiang Ni said indifferently, "It's not looking for me."

Xu Fengnian rolled his eyes and asked again: "Where is Hong Xixiang?"

Jiang Ni said casually: "I was dragged away by Wang Zhonglou."

Xu Fengnian narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Zheng Zha with a sneer and said, "It seems that Wudang is planning to stay out of the matter, then according to what you said before, Wang Chonglou asked him to do it after killing people."

Zheng Zha grinned, didn't say anything, just gave a thumbs up.

Xu Fengnian turned around, looked at those Taoists, and shouted arrogantly: "I am Xu Fengnian, who is looking for me?"

Hearing his words, the two Taoist priests in blue robes guarding the sedan chair hurriedly opened the door curtain of the sedan chair.

An old Taoist with a snow-white beard and a whisk in his hand, who looked like a fairy, got out of the sedan chair.

The old man looked arrogant, glanced at Xu Fengnian and said, "Are you Xu Fengnian?"

Xu Fengnian was not sure about the other party's identity for a while, so he didn't attack rashly, but said neither humble nor overbearing: "Exactly."

The old Taoist turned his head and looked around, and said arrogantly: "Where is Xu Longxiang? Let him come out, and the poor Taoist will take him back to my Longhu Mountain."

Xu Fengnian was furious, but asked calmly, "May I ask your Excellency?"

The old Taoist said proudly: "Dragon and Tiger... Zhao Xituan."

Xu Fengnian's eyes focused on the four celestial masters of Longhu Mountain, Zhao Xiyi, Zhao Xituan, Zhao Danxia, ​​and Zhao Danping.

Among them, the Xizi generation belongs to the older generation, and the Danzi generation belongs to the younger generation. It can be said that Zhao Xituan can completely represent the entire Longhushan.

But if you want to fight Huang Man'er's idea, even the four great masters are not easy to do, provided that only Zheng Zha can do it well.

Xu Fengnian didn't have a fit for the time being, instead he said with a face full of surprise: "It's actually a celestial master, how can he stand here? Didn't he neglect the celestial master."

Speaking of this, he stretched out his hand sideways, and said respectfully: "Tianshi, let's chat in the room."

Zhao Xituan was unmoved, and asked impatiently, "Where is Xu Longxiang?"

Xu Fengnian apologized and said with a smile: "I'll go find him right away, Tianshi will go in and have a cup of hot tea first."

Zhao Xituan just flicked his whisk and walked into the house.

Xu Fengnian immediately moved to Zheng Zha's side, and said softly, "Can you cut it?"

Zheng Zha said disdainfully: "I give all the members of the three religions for free, and Master Dragon and Tiger can cut four of them by myself."

"It's done." Xu Fengnian slammed his right fist into the palm of his left hand, and said with a smirk, "You don't need to really chop, just put the knife on his neck in a while, and I will do the rest."

"no problem."

After the discussion, the two walked into the room side by side. Xu Fengnian took the initiative to stay behind and closed the door.

At this time, Zhao Xituan was still carrying it, with his back to the door, and he stood by the table without taking a seat.

Zheng Zha didn't talk nonsense, and put his right hand directly on the handle of the knife at his waist, exuding a cold aura.

Zhao Xituan only felt a chill suddenly rise from the tailbone, and flashed to the opposite side of the table reflexively.

At this time, his superior temperament was gone, and he waved his hands again and again: "If you don't fight, don't fight, I will admit defeat."

Zheng Zha grinned and ignored him, Xu Fengnian only heard a "clang clang", and suddenly there was another Zheng Zha behind Zhao Xituan.

The Beiliang knife in his hand was firmly placed on the side of Zhao Xituan's neck.

Xu Fengnian rubbed his eyes, looked at Zheng Zha behind Zhao Xituan, and Zheng Zha in front of him.

But he found that the figure of Zheng Zha in front of him was slowly fading, and disappeared completely after a breath.

"This... what the hell is this job?" Xu Fengnian asked in a daze.

Zhao Xituan said in shock, "It's so fast, where did you come from, a little monster?"

"Fast?" Xu Fengnian had some recollection, so this slowly disappearing figure is the afterimage left by Zheng Zha's speed too fast?
It's a technical job, and it should be rewarded.

Zheng Zha sneered, and said to Xu Fengnian: "How do you plan to deal with him? Or just chop him up with a knife, and then kill those little Taoist priests outside."

"In this way, no one will know who did it, and when the time comes, push the matter to Wudang and work together."

Xu Fengnian stroked his chin with a look of emotion, nodded slowly thoughtfully and said: "What you said seems to make sense, or..."

Zhao Xituan's liver trembled when he heard it, and before Xu Fengnian finished speaking, he quickly shouted: "Jian Jiuhuang asked me to come."

Xu Fengnian's breath stagnated, and his voice stopped abruptly. He stared at Zhao Xituan, and said with astonishment on his face: "Old Huang? You mean... It was Lao Huang who asked you to take Huang Man'er to Longhu Mountain?"

Zhao Xituan spoke very quickly: "Jian Jiuhuang knows that the son is in trouble, he left Beiliang and came to Longhu Mountain to find the poor Taoist, otherwise the poor Taoist would not have come here."

"Your Excellency should know that your brother is a rare commodity to live in now. The royal family has been waiting to catch Beiliang's flaws, but as long as Dazhu Kingdom is still alive, Beiliang can only be named Xu."

"But people are mortal, so the little prince is the most important thing. If the Dazhu Kingdom hands Beiliang into the hands of the prince, the royal family can use the little prince to fight for power and make Beiliang fall apart."

"If Dazhu Kingdom handed over Beiliang to the young prince, it would be in line with the wishes of the royal family. The young prince has a pure heart, and it is impossible for the young prince to fight against those old and cunning guys."

"So the little prince must never fall into the hands of the royal family. Now in this world, only I, Longhushan, can keep the little prince safe."

After hearing Zhao Xituan's words, Xu Fengnian and Zheng Zha looked at each other.

Before Lao Huang left, he did say that he was going to Longhu Mountain to make a deal, so his trade partner was this Zhao Xituan?

Zheng Zha moved the knife away from Zhao Xituan's neck and said, "So you and us are actually our own people?"

Zhao Xituan patted his thigh and said decisively: "Absolutely my own."

Xu Fengnian said angrily: "Then you pretended to be a fart with me just now? It's like a two-fifth to eighty-thousand."

"Uh..." Zhao Xituan blushed, and said with a little embarrassment: "It's not that I want to hold it, the main reason is that if this shelf is not enough, those guys will definitely report to the head when they go back."

"Turning back, the sect master should scold me for not acting like a celestial master. I have fallen into the reputation of Longhushan. You don't know how long-winded that old guy is, and it's very troublesome."

Xu Fengnian: "..."

To make things clear, Zhao Xituan is not a person who cares too much about face, on the contrary, this old man is much more inconspicuous than Wang Chonglou, and the atmosphere in the venue immediately became harmonious.

Now that the three of them were seated, Xu Fengnian took the initiative to pour a cup of tea for Zhao Xituan, "Longhushan has never had any friendship with our Xu family, why do we want to protect Huang Man'er this time?"

Zhao Xituan waved his hand and said: "It has nothing to do with friendship, this is a transaction, and of course this transaction has nothing to do with me."

"Jian Jiuhuang told the poor Taoist that the little prince was born with supernatural powers, and his roots are extraordinary."

"And the ancestral mentality of the Pindao lineage has strict requirements on the successors. They must be pure and unique in order to pass on the mantle, so Pindao has not yet accepted disciples."

"Jian Jiuhuang chooses the poor Taoist because the poor Taoist sincerely accepts disciples."

Xu Fengnian looked at Zhao Xituan's suspicious face, but Zheng Zha at the side said seriously: "Let's not mention anything else, but what he said is trustworthy."

"Master Zhao's technique is called 'Dream of Spring and Autumn'. It not only needs to have a clear and unique root, but the most important thing is to have a pure heart to practice it."

Speaking of this, he looked at Zhao Xituan, with a smile on his face, and continued: "In other words, our Heavenly Master Zhao actually has a pure heart."

Zhao Xituan was a little embarrassed when he heard the words, he laughed and said: "You are really very knowledgeable, you know the Dream of Spring and Autumn."

With Zheng Zha's endorsement, Xu Fengnian's doubts about Zhao Xituan are much less, and he has more trust.

After thinking for a while, Xu Fengnian looked at Zhao Xituan and asked seriously: "So you will protect Huang Man'er well?"

Zhao Xituan spread his hands and said as a matter of course: "It is a master and apprentice, of course."

Xu Fengnian said: "Right now the capital and the royal family are staring at my younger brother. Although Longhushan is known as the number one sect, can it really stop the imperial power?"

Zhao Xituan smiled and said: "This is the deal that Jian Jiuhuang came to Longhu Mountain to make."

Xu Fengnian asked in a deep voice, "What kind of deal is it?"

Zhao Xituan turned his head to look at Zheng Zha, and said to Xu Fengnian with a serious expression: "This matter involves the royal family, and it is a top secret. The poor can only tell the prince alone."

"whispering sound"

Zheng Zha sneered, and said disdainfully, "It's all because of Zhao Huangchao, and it's top secret."

Zhao Xituan was greatly astonished when he heard the words, pointed at him inexplicably in amazement and said, "Who are you, you, you? How do you even know this?"

Zheng Zha grinned at him, and said, "I know more about the secrets of Jianghu than you have heard of rumors about Jianghu."

"Not only do I know that Zhao Huangchao is in Longhu Mountain, but I also know that the reason why he is in Longhu Mountain is because he wants to fish for thousand-year-old jellyfish."

"As for who I am, that has nothing to do with you."

Xu Fengnian asked Zheng Zha curiously: "Brother Zheng, who is this Zhao Huangchao?"

Zheng Zha explained: "Zhao Huangchao is an old ancestor of the Zhao family of the royal family. He has lived for three Jiazi. He is a land fairy and is also the 'Number Jia' among the Thirteen Jia in the Spring and Autumn Period."

"This old guy pursues the ultimate in martial arts, the highest in the world, but he wants to walk through this road. Wang Xianzhi of Wudi City is the hurdle he can't get around."

"Do you still remember what Lao Huang said before he set off? There is an old guy on Longhu Mountain who has always wanted to test Wang Xianzhi's details, but he didn't dare to do it himself."

A hint of understanding appeared in Xu Fengnian's eyes, he looked at Zhao Xituan and said: "So, the deal between Lao Huang and him is that Lao Huang will go to Wudi City to test Wang Xianzhi's details for him, and he will be responsible for protecting Huang Man'er?"

Zhao Xituan nodded affirmatively, and said: "Basically, this is the situation. As this kid said, that is the ancestor of the royal family. Naturally, the royal family would not dare to disobey him if he opened his mouth."

"Plus, if the poor way wants to pass on his disciples, he will also protect the little prince in secret. The little prince is absolutely safe, so it is the best choice for him to go to Longhu Mountain."

"My son, Jian Jiuhuang once said that he went to Longhu Mountain just to find a third way for him."

After hearing Zhao Huangchao's words, Xu Fengnian's eyes quickly turned red, and he murmured unconsciously: "Old Huang..."

Then he thought of something, and hurriedly asked Zhao Xituan, "Is there a winner between him and Wang Xianzhi?"

Zhao Xituan said: "The latest news, he has arrived outside Emperor Wudi's city, and it is estimated that there will be results soon. If there is any news, the poor will be the first to inform the prince."

Xu Fengnian nodded lightly and said, "Thank you."

A smile appeared on Zhao Xituan's face again, and he even said flatteringly: "Your Majesty, I've exhausted my words, can I see the little prince now, right?"

Xu Fengnian fell silent, he subconsciously looked at Zheng Zha, a look of hope flashed in his eyes.

Zheng Zha didn't speak, but just reached out and stroked the scabbard of the Beiliang Knife at his waist, with a look of arrogance on his face.

This was obviously an attitude, and Xu Fengnian felt very relieved.

We have only been together for a few months, but Zheng Zha now has the courage of Xu Fengnian. As long as he has Zheng Zha's support, he will be fearless in many things.

So he said to Zhao Xituan: "Thank you, Heavenly Master, but there is no need."

Zhao Xituan's face changed greatly, and he said anxiously: "This... this is already the best way out."

Xu Fengnian said: "Travel to Longhu Mountain, Huang Man'er will feel homesick."

Zhao Xituan said in disbelief: "You want to take him back to Beiliang?"

Xu Fengnian nodded and said, "I am his elder brother, and I will protect him."

Zhao Xituan persuasively said: "If the little prince goes back, there will be great chaos in Beiliang in the future."

Xu Fengnian said unmoved: "I know, I will deal with it."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open vigorously, Xu Longxiang rushed in from outside the room, and said to Xu Fengnian: "Brother, I will go to Longhu Mountain with the old Taoist."

Luo Li then entered the room with a look of helplessness on her face.

Xu Fengnian got up abruptly, and said to Xu Longxiang slightly angrily, "Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand."

Xu Longxiang's originally silly face was extremely serious at this moment, "I understand, I can help brother if I go."

Xu Fengnian said with a sullen face: "Nonsense, I need your help? Just stay at home, it's a big deal, brother is here."

This time Xu Longxiang did not follow what Xu Fengnian said as usual, but said firmly, "Brother, I am willing to go."

Xu Fengnian opened his mouth slightly, but didn't know what to say.

Zhao Xituan didn't care so much, when Xu Longxiang appeared, he attracted all his attention.

At this time, when he heard that he was willing to go with him, he couldn't hold back anymore, he couldn't wait to meet him, pinching Xu Longxiang everywhere.

As the bone pinching progressed, the look of surprise on his face became more and more intense, and finally he couldn't help laughing out loud: "Unexpectedly, there is such a root in the world, Jian Jiuhuang didn't lie to the poor."

"The lineage of Pindao finally has an inheritance, hahaha..."

Xu Longxiang lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Xu Fengnian. Seeing Zhao Xituan smiling up to the sky, he said sullenly, "Old Taoist priest, can we go?"

"Haha..." Zhao Xituan's laughter stopped abruptly, like a duck being pinched by the neck.

After suffocating for breath, he said angrily: "What old Taoist priest? You have to call me Master."

Xu Longxiang just looked at Zhao Xituan naively and didn't speak, which made Zhao Xituan lose his temper immediately.
