On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve in the twenty-ninth year of Jiajing, in a secret cave outside Yanmen in Shanxi, the lights were bright, and hundreds of big men dressed in white suits and masked faces in white scarves held torches, illuminating this large cave that can accommodate more than a thousand people, and at the back of the big cave, a Mida Buddha was sitting with a smile, but unlike the Maitreya Buddha in ordinary temples, this Mida Buddha held a raging flame in his hand.

This is a temporary general altar of the White Lotus Sect, and it is also the place where the White Lotus Sect holds its regular annual meeting this year.

Unlike previous years, this year's conference was not presided over by Zhao Quan and Li Zixin, Yan Hao sat on the main seat, looking at the more than thirty incense masters below, his face gloomy.

The wolf is masked, sitting in a seat in the middle of the cave, this kind of banquet every year is a small table for one person, sitting cross-legged, the wine and meat in front of it are not everyone's concern, the antidote after the banquet is what everyone really worries about.

The strength of the White Lotus Sect with the entry of Mongolia into the first battle, the loss is huge, from the number of participants today, it can be seen that in previous years, there were one or two hundred incense masters, today there are only more than seventy scattered, and the position is more than half empty, showing a cold and weird, everyone's eyes are cast on the high Yan Hao, many people are muttering in their hearts, where are the two sect masters today?

The wolf knew that Zhao Quan and Li Zixin were both severely injured by themselves in the battle of Tiejiazhuang, and they were afraid that they had not recovered at this time. I don't know where the cat is recuperating, so today's Chinese New Year's Eve meeting is hosted by Yan Hao. Before coming here today, he was led out of the Yanmen Pass through the secret road, and then his eyes were covered with a black cloth to arrive here, but with his unique judgment ability, he was familiar with all the roads he had passed along the way, and he also knew the kind of luminous powder of the guò phoenix dance. Along the way, a large number of Jinyi Guard's killers are afraid that they have infiltrated the vicinity of this cave.

Sky Wolf still had a slight regret in his heart. Zhao Quan and Li Zixin are not here today, and at most they can only catch Yan Hao, the hall master, and there is still a gap compared to the expected results. But to be able to take all the White Lotus Sect incense to the main hall master. Together with these general altar guards, it was also a devastating blow to their organization, after this blow, Zhao Quan and Li Zixin also became the commanders of the light pole, if they want to establish a force of this scale again, I am afraid that it will have to be decades, plus these two people will not be able to gain a foothold in the pass in the future, and the White Lotus Sect can also be said to exist in name only.

Yan Hao stood up. Facing the six or seven hall masters and more than thirty incense masters sitting below, he arched his hand and said, "Everyone." My White Lotus Holy Sect is in an eventful autumn, the gang leader and deputy gang leader are inconvenient to attend this year's conference because of other important matters, I am specially appointed to preside over this year's Chinese New Year's Eve conference, Zhao Gang Leader said, this year is the year of victory for our White Lotus Sect, the year of battle, after being suppressed by Zhu Ming's lackeys for more than a hundred years, our White Lotus Sect has finally risen up!"

As soon as these words came out, there was a cheer in the cave, and even the believers who were guarding the periphery shook their torches and shouted in unison: "King Ming was born, Maitreya was born, white lotus, white lotus, white lotus!"

The sky wolf followed the mouth movement, but he didn't say a word, he sneered in his heart, a bloodthirsty desire in his heart slowly began to burn, how to let go of the killing for a while, how to take down Yan Hao, it was already a problem he had been thinking about now.

Yan Hao waited until these fanatical believers shouted three times, then pressed his hand down, and the shaking fire in the cave returned to normal, Yan Hao laughed and continued: "This year, our White Lotus Holy Sect, with the power of the Mongolian army, has severely damaged Zhu Ming's Dog Emperor, the Dog Emperor was so frightened that he shrank in Beijing City, and he didn't dare to come out, Sect Master Zhao and his old man poured a soak of urine on the palace under the city of Beijing, so Emperor Zhu Ming didn't dare to move, and finally our White Lotus Holy Sect followed the Mongolian army and ransacked the surroundings of Beijing, robbed more than 200,000 people and returned to the grassland. ”

"Here I might as well tell you a good news, the sect leader and the deputy sect leader are now guests at Altan Khan, discussing the matter of our founding of the country, you don't have to be Zhu Ming's people in the future, this time the sect leader asked me to gather everyone, just to take everyone to the desert, from now on we can gallop on the grassland to hunt, free, no longer have to bow to anyone!"

The White Lotus Sect members present cheered again, but the Heavenly Wolf frowned, listening to Yan Hao's meaning, the White Lotus Sect may really not be able to gain a foothold in the Central Plains, maybe Altan Khan ordered Zhao Quan and Li Zixin to move the White Lotus Sect to the outside of the pass in order to maintain the deal with Yan Shifan, if this is the case, it will be even more difficult to go deep into Mongolia and wipe them all out in the future. If you can wipe out these White Lotus Sect disciples today, then Zhao Quan and Li Zixin will also become the commanders of the light pole, and for Altan Khan, they will become tasteless chicken ribs, and it is not too difficult to get rid of them.

Just when the wolf was thinking carefully, he only heard Yan Hao say: "Now, we are going to distribute the antidote, this year the sect leader has specially ordered that the first one to distribute the antidote is the great hero who saved our White Lotus Sect, Lord Liu Xiang, please come up!"

The wolf's heart moved, and in a look of envy and jealousy, he walked onto the high platform, his ears were very smart, and he clearly heard a few guys talking to each other: "How did this guy become a big hero?" Didn't you hear that he didn't succeed? ”

"Hmph, that's it, usually he complains the most, saying that we White Lotus taught the Mongols to be a lackey."

"The surname Liu was under the hands of the master of Yan Tang when he joined the church, Yan Tang mainly punished him, that is, he slapped himself in the face, this year's conference was presided over by the master of Yan Hall, and he is not in charge!"

"Even if he has the final say, he can't be so unclear about the reward and punishment. With so many of our brothers who were born and died, Tang Master Li personally led people to blow up the city gate of Datong and let the Mongolian soldiers enter the customs, which is not the first credit, but it was given to Liu Pingyi, who did not complete the task, which is too much. ”

The sound of discussion below gradually became louder, Yan Hao's face sank like water when he heard these gossips, and although several hall masters under the stairs did not say a word, they all drank sip and drank sip wine, obviously quite dissatisfied with this decision, the heavenly wolf stood on the steps indifferently, facing Yan Hao head-on, with his back to everyone, his face expressionless.

Yan Hao waved his hand, signaling the incense masters below to shut up, and after the voice calmed down, he said in a deep voice: "Yan has heard everyone's words, do you think I am acting unfairly?" ”

No one answered, Yan Hao smiled self-deprecatingly: "I'm afraid you don't know, Lord Liu Xiang's great contribution to this faction is not to capture Cangzhou, but to find out the traitor, if it is not Lord Liu Xiang, I'm afraid that all of us will be wiped out today!"

As soon as these words came out, it was like stirring up a thousand waves, and there was an uproar in the audience, and even several hall masters changed color, and the hall master named Li Yichun stood up and said in a deep voice: "Hall Master Yan, what is going on?" How can there be a mole? Nothing like this has ever happened to our Holy Church. ”

Yan Hao said loudly: "Zhang Shishi is the traitor of the government, he first informed the government when Liu Xiangzhu and they went to Cangzhou, and sent the Ming army to intercept and kill them halfway, and all the brothers were martyred, only Liu Xiangzhu was left, he wanted to slander Liu Xiangzhu as a traitor afterwards, and then deceived my trust and brought him to today's conference, fortunately, Liu Xiangzhu saw through his conspiracy in time, otherwise, we are afraid that we will not be able to escape today!"

Everyone in the audience looked at the wolf with a grateful look, and no one raised half a word, so Li Yichun said loudly: "Brother Liu, my surname Li offended you a lot before, it's mine, I apologize to you here!" As he spoke, he raised the wine bowl in front of him and drank it all.

The Heavenly Wolf smiled slightly, didn't answer, and said to Yan Hao: "Hall Master Yan, it is right to contribute to the Holy Sect, but my brother Li Pingyang, in order to cover my tragic death, can you also give me his antidote?" Before going to Guanwai, I had to pay homage to Pingyang one last time, so I used this antidote to go to his grave. At this, the wolf's expression darkened, and he almost burst into tears.
