Everything starts from Tian Long Ba Bu

Chapter 11 The Five Elders of the Wen Family

After arriving at the small town, Murong Fu, dressed in a light yellow gown and looking casual and carefree, was extremely conspicuous.

However, when he first stepped into Shiliang Town, he encountered several villagers. However, when these people saw him, they seemed to be seeing the god of plague and dodge one after another.

Murong Fu was naturally surprised by such an abnormal scene.

After walking forward for a while, he bumped into a woodcutter. Murong Fu cupped his hands and said, "May I ask, brother, where do the five elders of the Wen family live?"

The woodcutter was shocked when he heard this. He glanced around subconsciously, then shook his head and said, "I don't know!"

With a look of fear and disgust on his face, he turned around and left.

"Wait a minute, brother!"

Murong Fu naturally saw that the woodcutter was obviously hiding something on his mind, and immediately stopped him with a movement of his figure and was about to speak.

The woodcutter turned several directions in succession, but still could not get around Murong Fu. Seeing this, the woodcutter had to stop.

"Brother, you don't need to worry. I'm here today just for the five elders of the Wen family. If you have any grievances, you can tell me directly!"

Seeing that the woodcutter seemed unwilling to do anything, Murong Fu asked with a smile.

However, after Murong Fu finished speaking, the woodcutter was extremely cold and said, "We don't dare ask the young master to stand up for us!"

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the other side. Even his pace obviously accelerated a lot, obviously he didn't want to say anything more to him.

When Murong Fu saw this, he immediately moved his body, suddenly reached out and grabbed the woodcutter's shoulder, and walked out of the town quickly.

Although he was carrying one person, Murong Fu still walked like the wind. Within a moment, the two of them had arrived at the field outside the town.

After putting down the woodcutter, Murong Fu said: "There is no one else here, you can speak out boldly!"

After realizing that the young master in front of him seemed to possess special skills, the woodcutter suddenly fell down and said, "Please, young master, make the decision for us!"

At that moment, he told Murong Fu everything that had happened in the town in recent days.

The Wen family was a hegemon in the south of the Yangtze River, and it caused outrage in this small village. However, the villagers were afraid of their force and did not dare to speak out.

But half a month ago, the Wen family, which bullied men and women in the local area, seemed to have encountered an enemy. After being punished, nearly two thousand shi of white rice was given to the local villagers for the first time.

At first, the local villagers thought that the Wen family had learned a lesson from a strongman and were willing to change their past, so they gave them white rice. Unexpectedly, they got into trouble because of this.

After the strongmen who made the Wen family suffer left, the Wen family changed their original promise and directly sent slaves to search every household for the white rice they had taken.

Some villagers were poor and had already eaten the white rice, so they had no way to repay it, so they were beaten unconscious on the spot.

As for other villagers, they were beaten severely for no reason.

In just two or three days, almost everyone in the local villagers was injured, and many people lost their lives.

After this lesson, the local villagers hated the Wen family even more deeply, and at the same time they were no longer willing to trust outsiders.

When Murong Fu heard this, he quickly guessed the identity of the enemy who had made the Wen family suffer. He was probably the leader of the Huashan Sect, Yuan Chengzhi and others, the good disciples of Mu Renqing, known as the "Sword Immortal Ape".

The fact that the Huashan Sect, headed by Mu Renqing, secretly supported Li Zicheng, the king of Chuang, was nothing new in the world. However, the Huashan Sect and the Shiliang Sect were in the south and the north, and the two sides had no grudges before.

As for all this, it all originated from the money raised by the Huashan Sect in the south of the Yangtze River for King Chuang's army.

After coming down from the mountain, Yuan Chengzhi bumped into Cui Ximin and An Xiaohui, disciples of his senior brother Huang Zhen in Wenjiazhuang. He accidentally learned that the Wen family had kidnapped Wang's salary. This was the first time the two sides fought against each other.

Afterwards, the five elders of the Wen family found out that Yuan Chengzhi possessed the martial arts skills of Golden Snake Langjun, and tried to force him to stay, but Yuan Chengzhi and Huang Zhen were more skilled.

The five elders of the Wen family were controlled by others, and they were forced to admit defeat.

It's just that Huang Zhen and Yuan Chengzhi, the two brothers, are from the same line and love showing off most, so they came up with a way to tease the five elders of the Wen family.

However, the two of them stole the show, but in the end they suffered for the local people!
  Thinking of this, Murong Fu couldn't help but shake his head slightly, and his evaluation of Yuan Chongzhi and the two of them couldn't help but become even lower.

After understanding the whole story, Murong Fu returned to the town again.

After returning to the small town, Murong Fu noticed that almost all the houses in this town had white elegiac couplets hanging on their doors, and these families without exception closed their doors after seeing Murong Fu, a foreigner.

Seeing this situation, Murong Fu couldn't help but shake his head again, feeling extremely ridiculous about the foolish things done by the disciples of the Huashan Sect!

The Shiliang sect to which the Wen family belongs is well-known in Jiangnan, so the courtyard where they live is naturally not shabby.

Sure enough, within a moment, Murong Fu found a big house at the end of the village.

This big house is naturally wider than the residences of local people. Not only are there two stone lions at the door, but there is also a large flag with the three characters "Shiliang Sect" written on it.

The door of the Wen family was also tightly closed, and there was no sign of the Jianghu sect at all.

When Murong Fu saw this, he immediately moved his body without hesitation and jumped into the Wen Family Courtyard.

As soon as Murong Fu landed on the ground, he felt a burst of fragrance of flowers. It turned out that he was now in the garden of the Wen family.

There is the fragrance of flowers all around. The sun was shining brightly, and as far as the eye could see, the slope was covered with white and yellow roses.

After walking forward for a long time, a small pavilion appeared in front of him. Even after Murong Fu walked out of the garden, he still didn't see a single figure.

Seeing this situation, Murong Fu couldn't help but feel vigilant. It should be noted that it was daytime at this time, the Wen family closed the door tightly, and there was no one even in the courtyard. All this was naturally extremely abnormal.

It wasn't until Murong Fu walked dozens of steps inside Wen's mansion that he heard a vague sound of voices coming from the front.

At that moment, he used his physical skills to quietly arrive at the front yard. Only then did Murong Fu realize that many people had gathered in the hall of the front yard, and the sound of voices came from the hall.

Murong Fu was not anxious when he saw this. At present, his skills were not fully restored, and the five elders of the Wen family were extremely vicious in their behavior. This stone beam was the home of the five of them, so they naturally had to be more careful in their actions.

Murong Fu's figure swept away, and he landed very lightly on a jujube tree next to the front hall. Following an open window, Murong Fu stared at it.

Inside is a three-bay hall, with a large plaque in the middle that reads four characters: "The world is long." The hall's nave banners and cloud-plated vases are all very elegantly furnished, giving it the air of a wealthy gentleman's mansion.

In this hall, many people have already sat down.

Due to his limited vision, Murong Fu could only vaguely see a few figures.

I heard someone say: "Brother, what are you still hesitating about?"

Another person said: "Yes, brother, if this happens, our Wen family will enjoy endless glory and wealth in the future. There is no need to stay in this poor and remote countryside like now."

"You must think clearly. Eunuch Cao's invitation to five of my brothers to come to Beijing to help King Hui is a big deal. If you are not careful..."

The words spoken in the room were lowered deliberately, but Murong Fu could still hear them clearly.

Eunuch Cao and King Hui?

When Murong Fu heard this, his expression changed slightly, and he had obviously remembered something.

Eunuch Cao is one of the most trusted eunuchs of the current Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty. His original name was Cao Zhengchun, but this man had already abandoned the Ming Dynasty and secretly defected to Dorgon.

In order to win the favor of his Manchu masters, he recruited experts from all over the world to launch a coup in the palace to overthrow Chongzhen and support the weaker King Hui on the throne.

Seeing that the five elders of the Wen family were discussing important matters in the hall, Murong Fu flicked his hand on the ground and grabbed a lot of gravel. Then he used the gravel as a bullet and flicked it with his fingers.

After hearing a few "chichi" sounds, the men of the Wen family who were guarding outside the hall felt their bodies stiffen and became unable to move without exception.

Although Murong Fu's skills have not yet recovered, he is particularly good at tapping acupuncture points from a distance, so he can easily use them to deal with these Wen family disciples.

This Shiliang sect has a bad reputation in the Jiangnan generation, and is particularly good at combined attacks. Xia Xueyi, the "Golden Snake Man" back then, was trapped by the Five Elements Formation set up by the five elders of the Wen family.

In addition to the Five Elements Formation, the five elders of the Wen family also have the Five Elements and Bagua Formation composed of their disciples.

Although Murong Fu was not afraid in his heart, it would be unsightly if these Wen family disciples were to stop him and allow the five elders of the Wen family to take the opportunity to escape.

You should know that Murong Fu came here today just for the five of them!

"As the saying goes, wealth can be found in danger. Brother, if you and I miss this good opportunity, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find such good opportunities in the future!" Seeing someone still hesitating, someone in the hall quickly spoke to persuade.

"In that case, then you and I will go to Beijing for an appointment today!"

Seeing that everyone in the room agreed to go, the old man who was called eldest brother nodded with satisfaction.

"Zheng'er, quickly tell your servants to pack our luggage!"

Seeing the old man nodding, Wen Fangshi, the fourth among the five elders of the Wen family, spoke to the outside of the house and gave instructions.

This Wen Zheng was his grandson. When he saw everyone discussing and deciding to go to Beijing, he used to give orders to his grandson.

But even though his words rang out for a long time, there was still no movement outside the room. Wen Fangshi felt that the young man was lazy again, cursed secretly, opened the door and walked out.

However, as soon as Wen Fangshi walked into the hall, he saw his grandson standing motionless in the distance. Seeing this, Wen Fangshi cursed angrily: "Zheng'er, grandpa, didn't you listen?"

However, he called again, but his grandson remained motionless. Seeing this, Wen Fangshi naturally became suspicious and walked away quickly.

After he walked in, he realized that his grandson's acupoints seemed to have been tapped by someone, and only his eyes could move throughout his body.

Seeing this, Wen Fangshi couldn't help but feel alert, and was about to call out immediately, but at this moment, someone appeared in front of him, and Wen Fangshi subconsciously raised his palm and waved it out.

But he was still a step too slow. The palm hit was in vain, but someone locked his wrist tightly.

Before Wen Fangshi could come to his senses, he felt that his internal energy was pouring out uncontrollably. After this encounter, Wen Fangshi was frightened out of his wits and struck out with his left palm.

This palm of his can be said to have gathered almost all the power of his body, and the palm wind was fierce.

Unfortunately, the left palm was caught in mid-air by the visitor. The Hegu point on the left palm was opposite to the Shaoshang point on the thumb of the visitor, and the pouring of one's own internal force was invisibly accelerated.

"you……"

Staring at the handsome man who appeared in front of him at an unknown moment, Wen Fangshi couldn't help but feel frightened. No matter how he imagined it, he never thought that there was an evil skill in the world that could absorb other people's inner energy!

Wen Fangshi wanted to resist, but in this moment, his internal strength was gone.

Before he could think of another way, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest, and then he suddenly crashed into the hall.

"Fourth!"

Seeing Wen Fangshi vomiting blood and flying in backwards, the five elders of the Wen family in the hall couldn't help but said in unison.

"Who dares to act so arrogantly in the Wen family!"

The fifth child, Wen Fangwu, roared angrily and jumped out of the window, but he left quickly and came back even faster.

It turned out that as soon as he jumped out of the window, he saw a strange figure in front of him. He hooked his wrist and used grappling techniques to crush the stranger's arm.

However, the person just waved his sleeve, and his right hand seemed to hit something hard. His whole body was in pain, and his shoulders were crushed by the person.

At the same time, there was only a loud noise, and the person was sent back through the window again.

"Lao Wu!"

Seeing Lao Wu who had just jumped out, he smashed the window and fell into the hall in the blink of an eye. The remaining three elders of the Wen family couldn't help but screamed in anger and stopped staring outside the room.

"This guy is very skilled in martial arts, don't act rashly!"

Seeing this situation, Wen Fangda, the eldest of the five elders of the Wen family, quickly reminded him.

However, what was unexpected was that they saw a person slowly walking into the hall next. This person was wearing a light yellow gown, and it was Murong Fu who came here specially.

When the remaining three elders of the Wen family saw Murong Fu's extraordinary temperament and handsome face, they couldn't help but look at him and secretly guessed his identity.

After the two men had finished drinking and were about to rush forward to fight, Wen Fanda frowned and slowly said: "I wonder if the Wen family has offended you, why did they treat me..."

"You don't have to waste any words, because none of you can leave today!"

Murong Fu didn't have much patience when it came to the five elders of the Wen family, so he naturally didn't want to listen to their nonsense.

"Boy looking for death!"

The second eldest child, Wen Fangyi, turned red in the face, his eyebrows were flaring, and he was obviously extremely angry. He suddenly moved out of his body and struck Murong Fu's chest with both palms.

Murong Fu only had one side of his body and could easily avoid this move.

When Wen Fangyi saw that her attacks failed to achieve success, she became even more angry and launched several more moves in succession.

Although he didn't strike quickly, his fist came out with a strong wind.

"This mere cinnabar palm can't do anything to me!"

Murong Fu saw a slight heat in the wind of his palm and the palm was as red as blood, so he smiled slightly.

"Stop being so arrogant, boy!"

Just after hearing a loud shout, the eldest brother Wen Fangda and the third son Wen Fangshan rushed over with weapons in hand.

It turned out that the two of them saw Murong Fu seriously injuring his brothers one after another. The second brother, Wen Fangyi, tried his best to suppress the enemy but could not do anything to him, so they hurriedly got a handy weapon from the back hall and came to help.

The eldest brother, Wen Fangda, was holding two short halberds, and the third son, Wen Fangshan, was holding a steel staff. They attacked from the left and right, and the wind was fierce.

Their weapons were both long and short, so they looked extremely dangerous.

But Murong Fu just relied on his body movement to avoid the three attacks without any effort.

The three elders of the Wen family only felt that his steps were crooked to the left and right, with no straight steps forward or backward. There was nothing unusual about him.

But the three of them tried their best and still couldn't hurt him at all, which was incredible.

However, before the surprise in the hearts of the three of them dissipated, they suddenly felt that the weapon in their hands was out of control. However, when they saw the steel staff in Wen Fangshan's hand, he turned around and attacked others. Wen Fangyi could not dodge and was hit directly in the back, and he fell down on the spot. Sorry.

"Second brother!"

Wen Fangshan couldn't help being shocked when he saw this, but before he could worry about his brother, a short halberd in the hand of the boss Wen Fangda had already pierced his side.

"Big brother..."

After receiving this blow, Wen Fangshankou vomited blood and his eyes showed disbelief.

"Lao San, I..."

When the boss Wen Fangda saw this, he felt that he had something to say.

It should be noted that when the three of them jointly attacked the invading enemy, they tried their best and were still unable to do anything. The person who came just seemed to play with the three brothers with a slight wave of his sleeve or a flick of his fingertips. Between the palms of the hands.

"It's you!"

Wen Fangda realized later that the person coming seemed to be proficient in leveraging skills. He roared angrily, dropped his halberd, and attacked with bare hands.

Wen Fanda was the burliest among the five brothers. He took action with anger, which made him appear quite powerful!

It was just that the strength of the three of them was still too much for Murong Fu to bear. He alone would undoubtedly be destined to die!

Sure enough, when he saw him raising his palm to attack, Murong Fu just smiled and did not dodge. He also waved his palm immediately.

The moment the two people's palms touched each other, Wen Fangda felt that his internal energy was uncontrollably pouring towards the Shenmen point in Murong Fu's palm. This change shocked Wen Fangda to the point of being knocked out of his wits.

Wen Fangda wanted to let go, but Murong Fu had already grabbed his right hand, making it impossible to escape.

Before he could think of a way to break free, he groaned and was grabbed by Murong Fu, making him unable to move anymore.

Wen Fangda could only look in horror, watching helplessly as his inner strength was being sucked away by the person coming...
