Zhan Mubai pondered for a moment and nodded: "Okay, even if you can solve this matter, what are you going to do about the alliance leader?" Everyone came to Southern Shaolin only after looking at Xu Ge Lao's meaning, and nominally it was to deal with your Black Dragon Society, even if everyone was together, you couldn't command it, and it wasn't for nothing? ”

Li Cangxing smiled and shook his head: "It doesn't matter who is the leader of the alliance, the four factions of the Demon League have been doing their own thing for many years, and they should also take this opportunity to decide an alliance leader, when the time comes, you can compete to win the handsome as you did at the last Wudang Conference, and now the heads of each faction are already the younger generation, the Shaolin faction was taken over as the abbot by Master Zhiyi the year before last, and the two factions of Wudang Emei were even more in charge of Xu Linzong and Lin Yaoxian early, if it comes to martial arts, Brother Zhan will not lose to these few, if you can take the opportunity to compete in martial arts, You can also concentrate the strength of the four factions to recapture Huashan. ”

Zhan Mubai sneered: "Can you really be willing to be willing to be a Wudang faction? Sky wolf, Zhan is not a fool, now with the strength of our Huashan faction, we can't even match a rudder of the other three factions, and even the hometown of Huashan has been lost, how can we still be on an equal footing with the other factions? Even in terms of martial arts, compared to the others, my Heavenly Silkworm Swordsmanship, except for Master Lin, I don't have much chance of winning against Shangzhi and your Senior Brother Xu, I'm afraid that I'm busy for a long time, and I'm just making a wedding dress for others. ”

Speaking of this, Zhan Mubai's eyebrows raised: "Moreover, you mentioned the matter of the alliance this time, will your Sirius hero not show up at that time?" Don't come to the competition to win the handsome? ”

Li Cangxing said calmly: "This alliance is just for me to pacify the people, and my Black Dragon Society does not plan to join the Demon Alliance from beginning to end. I don't want to fight for the leader of your Demon Alliance, besides. This time, the meeting was convened in the name of discussing how to deal with our Black Dragon Society, although this was mainly to hide Yan Shifan's ears and eyes. But after all, I am nominally the object to deal with, and it would be good to be able to turn enemies into friends, so how could I hope to take this alliance leader? Brother Zhan, you shouldn't be confident in your martial arts, I'm afraid you won't be able to beat the others. ”

Zhan Mubai's pretty face turned red, and he said in a deep voice: "In today's world, there is no one who can make Zhan Mubai afraid, what is the lack of confidence!" It's okay, Sirius. This time, I believe you once, if Xu Gelao's biography really arrives, then I Zhan Mubai will take this subordinate to Putian South Shaolin. It's just that we have to go back to Huanshan first, and then go to Putian, this way has to go thousands of miles, isn't it too long? ”

Li Cangxing smiled slightly: "Brother Zhan, don't worry, after the Wushan incident is finished this time, you can go to the Hengshan rudder that Chu Tianshu promised to give." Under the pretext of operating a new rudder, he stayed for a short time, and soon, Xu Ge Lao's letters would be sent to each faction separately. Naturally, it will also come to the hands of your brother. ”

Zhan Mubai frowned: "Then what if he didn't catch or kill Qu Caifeng this time, and Chu Tianshu used this to break his promise?" ”

Li Cangxing said with a smile: "This is also simple, you will go to Wudang first when the time comes." Just talking about discussing the recapture of the Huashan faction, the news will definitely have reached Wudang. ”

Zhan Mubai gritted his teeth: "Okay." Then it's up to you, wolf. Four million taels you have to be ready, everything else is easy to say, that is, the benefits of this real money and silver cannot be less, if you lose your faith, I am afraid that you will not be able to gain a foothold in the southeast in the future. ”

Li Cangxing nodded: "Don't worry, this has already been prepared, and in addition, I will give Nan Shaolin another million taels of silver in exchange for their peace with us." By the way, where is Master Lin lately? I didn't dare to go deep into Dazhai today, but I happened to see you and followed all the way. ”

Zhan Mubai said coldly: "They are all in Emei, they all live in the west of the village, and we and they are also patrolling the gate of the village in shifts, today is just that we are on duty, and the head of Lin should be in this wing." As he spoke, he briefly drew a topographical map of the village in the snow, explaining where Lin Yaoxian was located and where Emei sent a sentry to patrol.

After finishing the painting, Zhan Mubai raised his head: "Sky Wolf, are you going to reveal your identity to Master Lin?" ”

Li Cangxing shook his head: "Today, I revealed to Brother Zhan, it's just a matter of last resort, and I also ask Brother Zhan to keep my identity a secret, especially for the Wudang faction, for Master Lin, I will only negotiate with her in the name of the Black Dragon Society's Lord Heavenly Wolf, Master Lin is chivalrous, I don't think she will refuse me." ”

Zhan Mubai said coldly: "Then you can do it yourself." His white figure suddenly moved, as fast as lightning, and suddenly disappeared into the vast forest sea.

Li Cangxing sighed, pulled on the masked yellow scarf, and muttered to himself: "Yaoxian, I haven't seen you for many years, are you okay?" ”

Half an hour later, two figures, one in front and one behind, chased like lightning from the rudder, in front of him was Li Cangxing in a black night suit, and in the back, he was also dressed in snow white, Lin Yaoxian, who was dressed as a Taoist aunt, in this snowstorm, the two of them were like meteors and lightning, and they could run dozens of zhang away in an instant, this skill was amazing.

Li Cangxing used the light skill Lotus Flying Crossing that he learned in Emei today, and it was precisely because of this that he attracted Lin Yaoxian to chase him all the way, without alarming others, his foot skills were almost ten percent, but he couldn't get rid of Lin Yaoxian even half a step, but let this Emei master shorten the distance between the two from about ten zhang to four or five zhang away, Lin Yaoxian hesitated when entering the forest, but gritted his teeth again and continued to chase.

After almost running to the place where he was talking to Zhan Mubai just now, Li Cangxing stopped and stood with his hands in his hands, Lin Yaoxian followed, standing with a sword at a distance of about two zhang behind him, and said in a deep voice: "Who is the honorable driver, why did you lead me here late at night?" ”

Li Cangxing turned his head and looked carefully at this beautiful woman who had been absent for many years, he had not seen her for more than ten years, the peerless beauty who was like a hibiscus out of the water back then, her demeanor was still the same, her hair was like a dark cloud, she pulled a bunker high on her head, and she was dressed in white clothes like snow, which set off her picturesque eyebrows, a little cinnabar between her eyebrows, just like her red lips, delicate and gorgeous. And her snow-white and pink skin is whiter than these three feet of snow. Crystal like jade, beautiful and natural, perhaps the most appropriate description of Lin Yaoxian. Her left hand was holding a whisk made of heavenly silk, while her right hand was pressed on the hilt of the purple sword she had used back then, and a faint white gas had risen up and down her body. Feel free to prepare for battle.

Li Cangxing pulled down the face towel, and a voice like gold and iron intersecting came from the bottom of his throat: "Master Lin." Don't come unharmed? The commander-in-chief of Jinyiwei made Lu Bing, this is polite. ”

Lin Yaoxian's brows furrowed. As if she was a little surprised, she put away the battle qi all over her body, still holding the dust in her left hand, and made a bow: "Lord Lu, you are polite." ”

Li Cangxing made up his mind early today and met Zhan Mubai with his true face, in order to win the trust of this self-confident and sensitive, deep but deeply inferior self-esteem, but to these old people of the Emei faction. Especially for Lin Yaoxian, who had loved him deeply back then, he was absolutely not allowed to reveal his identity, and negotiating with her with Lu Bing's face should be the best result.

So Li Cangxing nodded, pretending to be Lu Bing's loud tone: "Master Lin, I brought you here to meet today, I have an important matter to discuss, and I also ask Master Lin to make it convenient." ”

Lin Yaoxian waved the dust and said lightly: "Commander Lu." If there is anything you can arrange for to be reported under our hands in Emei, why bother? I Emei has been doing everything over the years, you know everything well, and I don't know what I did wrong. What about making the court unhappy? ”

Li Cangxing knew that Lin Yaoxian still hadn't let go of the hatred that the thrush Xu Jiayu was sent undercover by Lu Bing and was finally forced to commit suicide, so he nodded. An apologetic look was made on his face: "Master Lin, many years have passed since the events of that year. And the official also regretted that incident, just the Lu of the king. Since he is loyal to the king, the emperor needs to grasp the movements of the various sects on the rivers and lakes, and the official can only make this decision, and ask the head of Lin to forgive one or two. ”

Lin Yaoxian said coldly: "Commander-in-Chief Lu, you are the official, we are the people, the people do not fight with the officials, back then you provoked the battle of Luoyue Gorge, and placed undercover agents within the various factions, we can ignore these things, but I want to remind you that now we are all just living our lives, not connecting with each other, posing a threat to the imperial court, and the ministers in the court are also very clear about this, I don't know what else the Emei faction has done wrong, please let your lord say it." ”

Li Cangxing laughed: "The Emei faction has done a good job over the years, so we never trouble you." ”

Lin Yaoxian nodded: "Since that's the case, then I think I have nothing to say to the adults, this time we set up an ambush in the Wushan faction, and we also want to ambush the former leader of the Wushan faction, Qu Caifeng and others, according to intelligence, she has sneaked back to the Central Plains and re-recruited the old department, what, is Lord Lu also here for this matter?" ”

Li Cangxing nodded, and said with a straight face: "Yes, this official is here for this matter, Master Lin, please don't really make a move on Qu Caifeng, let her live." ”

Lin Yaoxian's face changed slightly, and her voice raised slightly: "Lord Lu, isn't Qu Caifeng a thief who gathers a crowd to rebel against the imperial court, as the commander-in-chief of Jinyiwei, isn't your duty and task to catch such a thief?" It's just that back then, all of our major sects were guarded, and you had to send undercover agents to investigate everywhere, why, this time when you encountered a real thief, you had to open the net? ”

Li Cangxing smiled slightly: "Master Lin, please don't get excited, of course I did this for a purpose." ”

Lin Yaoxian said coldly: "Purpose? Your purpose is to raise self-respect, and keep Qu Caifeng to continue to fight against the Dongting Gang, which is also in line with your consistent policy of disrupting the rivers and lakes, right? ”

Li Cangxing shook his head: "It's not that simple, the Dongting Gang has risen too fast and fiercely, not only to the imperial court, but also to the various factions of your Demon Alliance, are you so willing to watch Chu Tianshu of the Dongting Gang eliminate Qu Caifeng in one fell swoop, swallow the land of Lake Guangjingxiang, and then expand everywhere?" ”

Lin Yaoxian said expressionlessly: "Lord Lu, Lin is not talented, but one thing I still know, the Chu Gang Leader is only interested in destroying the Demon Sect, and he is not interested in anything else, Qu Caifeng is a mortal enemy with him, and now he has joined the Demon Sect, which is also the enemy of all our factions of the Demon Alliance, you came here this time, clearly saying that you want us to show mercy to Qu Caifeng's subordinates, in fact, you want us to give the Demon Sect a chance to breathe, right." ”

Li Cangxing was slightly stunned: "The Demon Sect has not suffered any losses, how can it be said that it has a chance to breathe?" ”

Lin Yaoxian's nose was disdainful: "Commander-in-Chief Lu, there is no need to say secret words in front of the Ming people, although Lin is not talented, he also has his own eyeliner and intelligence, four years ago, Wang Zhi and Xu Hai, the leaders of the Japanese in the southeast, were lured ashore by your Jinyi Wei and killed, and the remaining party of the Japanese in the southeast area and the old Yan Shifan of the small pavilion. There is also a demon cult that colludes together and dominates the trade routes on the sea. Do you want to deny that? ”

Li Cangxing didn't expect Lin Yaoxian to be so clear about this southeast matter, and said in a deep voice: "How did you know about this matter?" ”

Lin Yaoxian said coldly: "The famous brocade-clothed guard wolf under you. I can't get used to your later defection to Yan Shifan and the Demon Sect, and treacherously killed Wang Zhi and Xu Hai and his gang, so he betrayed the Jinyi Guard, and broke the hero's door outside the plug a while ago, and I heard that he returned to the Central Plains again, isn't it? ”

Li Cangxing nodded: "Yes, is there such a thing, does Master Lin think that our Jinyi Wei is also colluding with the Demon Sect, so he doesn't want to believe our words?" ”

Lin Yaoxian nodded: "The evidence is ironclad, even your subordinates are not willing to share your heart." And how can you convince us? Destroying the Demon Sect is the goal that our Emei cannot change, the so-called good and evil are not mutually exclusive, and the battle of Luoyue Gorge is such a blood feud, if it can't be revenged, Lin will wear human skin in vain. At this point, Lord Lu doesn't have to waste his efforts, Qu Caifeng, this lackey of the Demon Sect, we will kill him! ”

Li Cangxing sighed: "Master Lin." These things are all what Chu Tianshu told you, this person even refuses to return the Heavenly Sword to your Emei, what you say is so trustworthy? ”

Lin Yaoxian's willow eyebrows moved slightly: "Lord Lu, I know that you and the Chu Gang Leader are both from the imperial court. And he has always been at odds, he has a gritted hatred for the Demon Sect, and he will want to destroy it. You're going to do the opposite, and you're going to help the Demon Sect. The battle between your government and the government, we don't care about the rivers and lakes. But in the affairs of our rivers and lakes, please don't interfere with it, otherwise you will give a ginseng copy, saying that you are fornicating and rebelling, but I am afraid that even Yan Shifan will not speak for you. ”

Li Cangxing's heart moved, how could this Lin Yaoxian know Chu Tianshu's imperial court identity? In the conversation with Zhan Mubai just now, he didn't seem to know anything about it, so Li Cangxing asked, "What did Chu Tianshu tell you?" ”

Lin Yaoxian said coldly: "Lord Lu, your Jinyiwei and Dongchang have always sworn to be incompatible, this is well known to everyone in the rivers and lakes, the emperor trusts you Jinyiwei, but if you change an emperor, it may not be like this, you fight too fiercely with Dongchang, be careful that you don't leave a way back, and your entire organization will be affected in the future." Lord Lu, you are a smart person, you don't need me to remind you more. ”

Li Cangxing's heart was bright, Chu Tianshu seemed to have secretly clarified his identity to Lin Yaoxian last time when Lin Yaoxian came to ask for a sword, so as to gain Lin Yaoxian's trust, if it weren't for this, this time the Emei faction probably wouldn't have arrived so happily, probably except for Chu Tianshu himself who was Yue Dang, who did not hesitate to enter the palace from the palace in order to practice the silkworm swordsmanship, he also told Lin Yaoxian about other things, and Lin Yaoxian's Emei faction has always had no power in the court, and it is natural to be able to take the line of Dongchang.

So Li Cangxing asked in a deep voice: "Chu Tianshu also told you that he was the supervisor of the East Factory?" ”

Lin Yaoxian said coldly: "Of course, the Chu gang leader was ordered by the emperor to destroy the demon sect, Yan Shifan's father and son covered the sky in the court with one hand, and the party henchmen were all over the world, and the emperor was already dissatisfied with them, and you have seen the wind and steered for many years, and you have been fighting for the tiger again and again, throwing yourself to Yan Shifan, and appeasing the demon sect, so the emperor naturally can't use you to deal with the demon sect, but can only start from scratch and let the Chu gang leader do this, it's ridiculous that you Lu Commander-in-chief, have been figuring out the intentions all your life, and have worked hard to manage, but you don't even know the emperor's true thoughts, hehe." ”

Li Cangxing gritted his teeth: "Then why did you sue me for these things today?" ”

Lin Yaoxian smiled slightly, and a dimple appeared on the side of her mouth: "Because we are the people, the adults are the officials, and the rivers and lakes are over, we just want to deal with the Demon Sect and Qu Caifeng, avenge the master, and be ashamed of the sect, and Lord Lu is dedicated to the country, and we don't want you to be famous in this life, send it to Yan Shifan and the Demon Sect, and withdraw as soon as possible, so that you can leave your name in history and protect the family." ”

Li Cangxing's thick eyebrows raised: "So, do you have to kill Qu Caifeng?" ”

Lin Yaoxian nodded resolutely: "Yes, Qu Caifeng's hatred with our Emei faction far exceeds that of other factions, back then she slandered the first head of the sect Xiaofeng Shitai to kill her master, and led the crowd to sneak attack from behind, resulting in the fiasco of our coalition army in Luoyue Gorge, and then bit our Emei faction and did not let go, fighting in the middle of Sichuan for many years, our Emei faction died in the Wushan faction's disciples, thousands, it was already an endless blood feud, this time in order to prevent anyone from getting in the way, we didn't even call the nearest Wudang faction." , Lord Lu won't understand this intention. ”

Li Cangxing finally understood why Chu Tianshu didn't call the Wudang faction this time, he must be afraid that Xu Linzong of Wudang secretly let Qu Caifeng go like he destroyed the Wushan faction last time, and his brows furrowed: "Master Lin, you also participated in the elimination of the Wushan faction last time, and you should also see that Qu Caifeng of the Wushan faction is not the kind of heinous female devil, most of her cottages are those orphans and widows, not bandits and bandits, you have killed tens of thousands of such poor people last time, if you want to talk about revenge, it should be regarded as revenge, Why bother to kill them all this time? ”

When Lin Yaoxian heard about the orphans and widows, a trace of unbearable expression appeared on her face at first, and her willow eyebrows frowned slightly, but when she heard Li Cangxing's last few words, she gritted her teeth and said, "But this time, Qu Caifeng brought to join the Demon Sect and attack Wushan, it will not be orphans and widows, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled."
