Chapter 713: Cold Leaf Gate
713
Martial arts, decades ago, was not peaceful and tranquil.
On the land of China, there is the concept of martial arts, which can be traced back to the Xia and Shang periods, when people have learned basic fighting skills, these people have become the most powerful weapon in the hands of the monarch during the war, and when the war is over, some of these people are unwilling to become farmers, merchants, so they picked up swords and guns, and continued to walk in the rivers and lakes, so in the rivers and lakes, there began to be martial arts.
In all things in the world, there must be positive and negative, and there must be yin and yang.
Martial arts has developed for thousands of years, and there are heroes who are bright and upright, and there are naturally villains who rob homes and houses, rape and plunder.
In the rivers and lakes, the struggle between heroes and villains is an eternal topic, and this situation, even with the advent of the modern era, is inevitable.
In the middle of the Zimu Peak, in the huge central hall.
A lonely figure stood here.
He was carrying a long sword, and although the blade was hidden in the scabbard, you could still feel the slight sharpness coming from the sword in his hand.
In front of him was a huge statue, which was so large that it was almost as tall as the main hall, which was at least a dozen meters high.
It was late at night, and there were only a few dim lights in the hall.
The light is very low, so it only faintly illuminates the body of the statue, but it does not shine on the face of the statue, so that when you stand under the statue and look up, you can't see the statue clearly, and naturally, you have no way of knowing who the statue is.
Zhao Qingshan didn't know when he had been standing here, he just stood, didn't speak, didn't move, seemed to be thinking about something.
At this moment, a rush of footsteps came from behind Zhao Qingshan.
Zhang Yuande hurriedly ran in from outside the hall and came behind Zhao Qingshan.
"President, it's not good!" Zhang Yuande said excitedly.
Zhao Qingshan raised his hand and raised his index finger, although he didn't speak, Zhang Yuande knew that it was Zhao Qingshan who asked him not to speak.
Zhang Yuande had no choice but to stand in place.
Although he has a respected status, he knows that once the president in front of him asks someone to do something, then your best choice is to do it.
At this moment, Zhao Qingshan's body suddenly jerked forward.
Burst!
A mouthful of blood spurted out of Zhao Qingshan's mouth.
The blood stained the ground in front of Zhao Qingshan red.
Zhang Yuande looked at Zhao Qingshan in shock, he didn't understand why Zhao Qingshan vomited blood.
Zhao Qingshan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve, then turned his head and looked at Zhang Yuande.
At this time, Zhao Qingshan's face was extremely pale.
"What's the matter?" Zhao Qingshan asked.
"President, you, what's wrong with you?" asked Zhang Yuande nervously.
"It's okay, some old injuries have recurred, I vomit out the blood, it will be better for the body. Zhao Qingshan said.
"Old injury?" Zhang Yuande looked at Zhao Qingshan in surprise, he didn't expect that Zhao Qingshan would be injured!
"Out of the way. Master Zhang, you came to me so late, what's the matter?" Zhao Qingshan asked.
"Oh, that's right!" Zhang Yuande came back to his senses and said, "President Zhao, it's not good, the people from Hanyemen have appeared! They also killed my nephew Zhang Baishou!!"
"Cold Leaf Gate?" Zhao Qingshan frowned and looked at Zhang Yuande, he had never heard of the Cold Leaf Alliance.
Seeing Zhao Qingshan frowning, Zhang Yuande suddenly thought, more than fifty years ago, this Zhao Qingshan was not born yet, so it was naturally impossible to know the Cold Leaf Gate, so Zhang Yuande hurriedly explained, "This Cold Leaf Gate is a demon gate in our martial arts!"
"What do you mean?" asked Zhao Qingshan.
"Hanye Sect, is a group of martial arts scum without any bottom line, without any humanity composed of a sect, this sect appeared more than 70 years ago, after more than 20 years of development, this sect gathered hundreds of martial arts scum, they walk in the rivers and lakes, to plunder and kill other martial arts sects for fun, more than 20 years, died under their hands of our Huaxia Martial Arts Association, there are as many as hundreds! These people not only attack our martial arts people, but also against ordinary people, they use their strong skills, rob banks, kidnap rich businessmen, and our Huaxia Martial Arts Association, and the whole world is the right way to be the enemy, causing jealousy and resentment, and finally, more than 50 years ago, initiated by the previous president of the Chinese Martial Arts Association and the central government, the five permanent directors cooperated, the whole Chinese martial arts, set off a war to eliminate the demon and defend the way, in this war, hundreds of people in Hanyemen, some were arrested, some were killed, and some were expelled. The whole war lasted for up to a year, and in the end, the entire Hanye Gate, disappeared on the Huaxia Jianghu, since then, the Huaxia Jianghu has been calm, although sometimes there will still be some martial arts scum, but there is no longer enough to confront our Huaxia Wushu Association, when the war opened, I was just about a teenager, I still remember that period of time, the whole martial arts rumor, although there are only a few hundred people in the Hanye Gate, but, can enter the Hanye Gate, each of them is a master of the masters, often can be one enemy ten, enemy hundred, although the final elimination of the Hanye Gate, however, our Huaxia Wushu Association also suffered huge losses, at that time my senior brother, also died in battle, so I finally became the head of our Wudang faction, otherwise according to the seniority, the position of head is my senior brother's. Zhang Yuande said.
"How do you know they're back?" asked Zhao Qingshan.
"Because of this!" Zhang Yuande took out the iron leaf from his pocket and handed it to Zhao Qingshan.
"What is this?" Zhao Qingshan asked as he took the leaf.
"This is the sect symbol of the Cold Leaf Gate, a leaf made of iron, every person in the Cold Leaf Gate will carry this thing on their bodies, the people of the Cold Leaf Gate have a characteristic, whenever they do something big, they like to leave such a leaf on the scene. Zhang Yuande said.
"I see, that is to say, the people of Hanye Sect, killed your nephew?" Zhao Qingshan asked.
"Yes, I remember this leaf very well, and I won't be mistaken!" Zhang Yuande said.
"This matter, don't make a noise for the time being, so as not to cause turmoil in the rivers and lakes. Zhao Qingshan said.
"I know, but we can't treat this incident as if it didn't happen, Hanyemen has disappeared for fifty years, and now as soon as it appears, he will attack my nephew, this is obviously coming back for revenge, we must take precautions, President!" Zhang Yuande said excitedly.
"Early tomorrow morning, let the heads of the five permanent members, as well as all the committee members, go to the central hall for a meeting. Zhao Qingshan said.
"I see!" Zhang Yuande nodded.
"I offer my condolences on the death of your nephew. Zhao Qingshan said.
Zhang Yuande sighed, nodded to Zhao Qingshan, and then turned to leave.
Zhao Qingshan took the leaf in his hand, looked at it twice, and then put it away.
What will this sudden appearance of the Cold Leaf Gate bring to the Huaxia Martial Arts Association?
Zhao Qingshan's brows furrowed tightly.
Aerodrome.
At this time, it was already late at night, there were few people at the airport, and many people were sleeping.
Xu Taiping and his entourage walked in from outside the airport.
"The nearest normal flight was three o'clock in the morning, and it's already one o'clock in the morning, so let's stay here and not look for a hotel!" the blood wolf said to the group.
"Find a place to rest. Xu Taiping said, looked to the side, and then found a place to sit down.
Liu Wu and Zhang Quandan sat on the left and right sides of Xu Taiping respectively.
The blood wolf took the others to sit opposite Xu Taiping, and two hours, playing with mobile phones or something, would soon pass.
Xu Taiping crossed Erlang's legs, looking at the people in the airport, and chatting with Liu Wu Zhang Quandan.
"Are we really going to be some killers?" asked Zhang Quandan in a low voice.
In the end, they rubbed a wave of air tickets, and when they arrived in Jiangyuan City, they found an excuse to leave. Xu Taiping replied in a low voice.
"It's so simple?" Zhang Quandan asked in surprise.
"Otherwise, there is a vast sea of people, millions of people in Jiangyuan City, they still have a task to do, and it is almost impossible to find you. Xu Taiping said.
"Then why am I going to Jiangyuan City?" asked Liu Wu.
"You can go to the transfer, or you can go now, but if you leave now, it will affect me and Quandan, they will inevitably be wary of us, and the two of us will leave, there may be some difficulties, so I suggest that it is better to go to Jiangyuan City, and let's run together!" Xu Taiping said.
"When the time comes, we can take a taxi, the four of them just have one car, and we can take three people in one car!" Liu Wu said.
"Clever! That's it!" Xu Taiping nodded with a smile, just wanted to praise Liu Fu a few more words, but when he thought that Liu Wu might still be lustful for himself, Xu Taiping still closed his mouth decisively, and then quickly put his eyes on the people coming and going.
"Isn't that Hu Yifei?" Zhang Quandan suddenly said as he pointed to a person in the distance.
Xu Taiping looked in the direction of Zhang Quandan's finger, and saw that more than ten meters away from them, Hu Yifei, who was wearing sunglasses, was walking with an old man with white hair and white beard.
The old man looked like he was about sixty or seventy years old, walking with a little lame, hunched back, a face that didn't know what was going on, and his facial expression was very stiff.
"Why is she here?" Zhang Quandan asked in surprise, you know, a few of them came here on the road, so they appeared at the airport at night, and this Hu Yifei is completely unnecessary to be like them.
"Just ask. Xu Taiping stood up with a smile and walked in the direction of Hu Yifei.
At this time, Hu Yifei was walking with the old man to a check-in counter.
Xu Taiping approached Hu Yifei quietly, wanting to scare Hu Yifei by playing a prank, but unexpectedly, the old man who was following Hu Yifei suddenly turned his head to look at him.
At this glance, Xu Taiping's hairs stood up.
