Song QingShu furrowed his brows. He had recognized Xiao Feng before Zhao Min did. However, at this moment, Xiao Feng did not have his usual heroic spirit. He was being carried on someone else's back, and his face was weary. It was obvious that he had suffered serious internal injuries.
At the same time, what surprised Song QingShu even more was that there were two acquaintances with Xiao Feng. One of them was wearing a scarlet dress. It was A 'Zhu, whom he hadn't seen for many years. Back in Swallow Dock, it was all thanks to the disguise technique she taught him that he was able to deceive everyone all these years.
The other girl in purple was Zi. Some time ago, he heard from the Golden Snake Camp that Zi had escaped. Song Qingshu did not take it seriously. After all, she did not mean much to him. However, why was she with Xiao Feng and Azhu now? Was this the so-called plot correction power?
At this time, the one carrying Xiao Feng was a tall and burly man. Unfortunately, his face could not be seen because he was wearing a black scarf. However, it could be seen that his Kung Fu was extraordinary. He was still able to run fast while carrying a person. On the contrary, Azhu and Zi could not keep up with him.
Behind them, there was a group of people chasing from afar. Song Qingshu looked at them and his expression became more and more strange. They were all old acquaintances.
The leader was a burly man in a kasaya, but his face was full of killing intent. He was Xuan Cheng, the first monk of Shaolin in the past 200 years. The other man was kind and had white hair and beard. He was Master Fang Zheng.
The other man had a shiny bald head and a dignified look on his face. He was the Abbot of the Shaolin Temple, Great Master Xuan Ci. Song QingShu and Zhang SanFeng had come to Shaolin Temple together to meet him.
Beside them stood a kind-hearted monk, while the other had a bitter look on his face, with the corners of his mouth drooping down. They were Kong Wen and Kong Zhi, two of the Four Great Divine Monks of Shaolin. Kong Jian had fallen into Xie Xun's trap and died at the hands of Xie Xun, while Kong Xing had competed with Zhao Min's subordinate, Ah San, in terms of finger strength and was defeated and beheaded. The Four Great Divine Monks of Jianghu in the past only existed in name.
There were quite a number of eminent monks around. Song Qingshu did not recognize many of them, but judging from their attire, they were either eminent monks of the Xuan generation or experts of the Kong generation.
Among this group of eminent monks, there was a person dressed in low-level disciple clothing that was particularly conspicuous. He had a plain appearance, thick eyebrows, and slightly upturned nostrils. Although the other eminent monks were quite old, they could all be considered good-looking. Although this young monk was young, he was the ugliest one.
However, Song Qingshu did not look down on him because he was Xuzhu, who had shone brilliantly in the Golden Snake Meeting. Although he was young, his martial arts were extremely high. Among all the monks present, he was definitely in the top three in terms of martial arts.
"I wonder where Xuzhu learned the Carefree Sect's martial arts." Song Qingshu had asked Li Qingluo and Fu Minyi before, but none of them knew who Xuzhu's master was. In addition, there had never been an exquisite chess game in this world, so Xuzhu's origin was very suspicious.
"Is there another branch of the Carefree Sect hidden in the Shaolin Temple?" An idea came to Song Qingshu's mind. After all, from what he had experienced in the past two years, the Carefree Sect was extremely mysterious. At the same time, there were many branches of the Carefree Sect, such as the Misty Peak, the Xixia Imperial Palace, the Fairyland, and several princes of Chai Rong … It was not impossible that one of them was hidden in the Shaolin Temple.
While Song Qingshu was distracted, he saw Xuan Cheng, Fang Zheng, Xuan Ci, and Xuzhu jump up and scatter around, blocking the way of Xiao Feng and his party. Soon, the rest of the Shaolin Monks caught up and surrounded Xiao Feng and the other three.
"No wonder Xiao Feng was seriously injured. I'm afraid no one in the world can get away with being besieged by so many top martial arts masters." Song Qingshu secretly frowned. If there were only a few martial arts masters, it would be fine. But with so many people, he was afraid that he could only avoid them.
"Let's go and watch the fun." Zhao Min looked excited, as if she wanted to see the world in chaos.
"Watch the fun?" Song Qingshu smiled bitterly, "There are so many martial arts masters. If we are not careful, we might lose our lives."
"No matter how good their martial arts are, can they be better than you?" Zhao Min rolled her eyes, patted his chest, and said, "Hurry up ~"
Song Qingshu did not know whether to laugh or cry. This was the difference between Zhao Min and Zhou Zhiruo. If Zhou Zhiruo was here, she would not be so mischievous. Deep down, she was quite serious. Only someone like Zhao Min, who was full of romanticism, would be so fearless.
"Hurry up ~" Zhao Min urged again.
In his helplessness, Song QingShu could only hold onto her waist and execute his peerless movement technique to silently approach her, and then he hid on top of a nearby large tree with dense foliage. Actually, even if Zhao Min didn't urge him, he would still come over. After all, no matter if it was A 'Zhu or Xiao Feng, both of them had an extremely deep relationship with him, so how could he possibly stand by idly and watch them die?
However, he was not in a hurry to make a move. He wanted to see what was going on first.
Zhao Min blushed slightly when he hugged her waist so intimately. But for the past two years, it had become normal for the two of them to hug each other. She was already used to it. Soon, she turned her attention to the empty space not far away.
"Xiao Feng, you bastard, you won't be able to escape today even if you have wings!" Kong Zhi shouted angrily. Among the Four Divine Monks, Kong Jian had the highest cultivation in Buddhism, followed by Kong Wen, and Kong Xing and Kong Zhi. Therefore, they were the first to lose control.
Fang Zheng sighed and said, "Junior Brother, you are violating the precepts again."
Xuan Cheng said coldly, "Senior Brother, you are wrong. As the saying goes, even Buddha can be angry and roar like a lion. Xiao Feng, that bastard, killed his own master, Master Xuan Ku. Last time, we didn't catch him. This time, he finally walked into the trap. We should do justice on behalf of heaven.
What's wrong with that? "Fang Zheng frowned slightly. In fact, he had always felt that Xuan Cheng was a bit too murderous. But Xuan Cheng's Kung Fu was extremely high, and he had a high status in the temple. It was not convenient for him to say anything.
On the tree, Song Qingshu felt strange. Although Xiao Feng looked like a boorish man, he had always been meticulous and brave. Why would he walk into the trap so unwisely?
"I didn't kill my master!" Xiao Feng said angrily. "There must be a traitor behind this."
"Traitor? I think you are a traitor! " Xuan Cheng said angrily. "Before Senior Brother Xuan Ku died, he pointed at you. There were a few other disciples in the temple who saw you enter Senior Brother Xuan Ku's meditation room. The evidence is irrefutable. Do you still dare to deny it?"
Xiao Feng's face showed a trace of grief and indignation. He immediately said to the man in black who was carrying him, "Senior, please let me down. This has nothing to do with you. With your Kung Fu, if you want to leave, you might have a chance."
He didn't ask the man to take Azhu or Zi with him because he knew that with so many Lin Temple masters surrounding them, the man might not be able to escape alone. If he took the two girls with him, he would definitely die on the spot.
The man in black laughed, and there was a trace of heroism in his laughter. "If a man dies, then so be it. What's the big deal? How can I be a greedy person who is afraid of death?"
Song Qingshu's face showed a strange expression. The man in black's laughter was full of vigor. Obviously, his Kung Fu was no weaker than Xiao Feng's. However, Xiao Feng's Kung Fu was already among the top in Jianghu. He was not Nameless. Could it be … that person?
Xiao Feng's personality had always been heroic. When he heard the man in black's words, he couldn't help but laugh. "I haven't even seen Senior's face, but it seems that we have known each other for a long time. Well, let's fight together. Even if we die, we must die a glorious death!"
As soon as these words came out, the Shaolin monks' expressions changed. They were very clear about the Kung Fu of Xiao Feng and the man in black. Now, although they could kill them with the advantage of numbers, if the other side fought with their lives, they would certainly suffer many losses. Who knew how many monks would die here today?
"The King of the Southern Yard, Xiao Feng, is indeed a match for tens of thousands of people. Even at the end of the road, he still has such vigor." Zhao Min's tone was full of admiration and appreciation. She was worried that those people would hear her, so she moved her mouth close to Song Qingshu's ear and said these words.
Song Qingshu secretly broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, the Shaolin monks' attention was focused on Xiao Feng and the others. They were worried that they would suddenly launch an attack. Otherwise, even though Zhao Min's voice was soft, it would be difficult to hide it from some of the experts.
"Xiao Feng is indeed an indomitable hero." Song Qingshu couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
"Then are you going to save them?" Zhao Min looked at him with a smile that was not a smile.
Song Qingshu said in a deep voice, "It's a bit tricky. Let's wait and see first."
The man in black also laughed. "Worthy of being a good man of my Khitan. You are not as bashful as these Southern people."
Xiao Feng was startled. He happily said, "Senior is also a Khitan?"
The man in black laughed. "Of course I am a Khitan."
Xuan Cheng said coldly, "You don't have to put on a show of appreciation here. In any case, you will all die here today." He noticed that the two men's heroic spirit seemed to have taken away the momentum of the scene with just a few words. His side's morale was faintly low. He was sensitive to the fact that he couldn't let them continue, so he deliberately interrupted them.
As he spoke, a strong murderous aura suddenly rushed out.
Seeing that a battle was about to break out, Azhu held Xiao Feng's hand and said slowly, "Brother Xiao, the leader must be among these people. That's why he slandered you like this, hoping to use the temple's experts to kill you."
Song Qingshu, who was on the tree, suddenly understood. No wonder Xiao Feng had walked into the trap. It turned out that he had gone to investigate the leader. But with his meticulousness and intelligence, he shouldn't have fallen into such a desperate situation. Why was he besieged by so many experts, as if they were waiting for him?
"What leader? I don't know what you're talking about." Xuan Cheng snorted coldly. "Xiao, don't try to divert attention."
"Thirty years ago, my parents took me, who was still in swaddling clothes, home to visit relatives. Who knew that when they passed through Yanmen Pass, they would be attacked by a group of experts from the Southern Dynasty. That battle could be said to be dark and gloomy, with countless casualties. My parents and clansmen were all killed, and the experts from the Southern Dynasty were almost completely wiped out. I investigated many times and found out that it was the leader who organized this operation. I just want to ask him, my parents are just commoners, why did he bring people to do such a vicious thing?"
"Amitabha," Master Fang Zheng said. "What happened thirty years ago can only be said to be a freak accident. But almsgiver Xiao said that your father was just a commoner. This statement is somewhat untrue. Your father was the chief instructor of the Khitan Palace's division army, and could be said to have a high position and power. Otherwise, with just him and the deployment that accompanied him, how could they almost completely wipe out the ambush of the Southern Dynasty experts?"
"Gong Fen Jun?" Song Qingshu was startled. Because Liao had declined and was no longer a threat, he had not studied the intelligence of Liao in detail when he was in the imperial palace of the Jin Kingdom and the Qing Kingdom. Therefore, when he heard about Gong Fen Jun, he was somewhat confused.
As if sensing his confusion, Zhao Min moved closer to his ear and explained, "In the early days of Liao, the Imperial Guard Army was divided into two groups. One was subordinate to the Emperor and was called the Pi Shi Army. 'Pi Shi' means' King Kong 'in the Khitan language. The other was under the Empress and was called the Shu Shan Army, which was the treasure of the coral. However, as the Kingdom of Liao gradually settled down, the Pishi Army and the Shushan Army gradually became the troops for expeditions and border defense, and the Imperial Army was replaced by another army. Every soldier in this army was carefully selected from the 12 palaces of the Kingdom of Liao, so this new army was also called the Palace Division. "
