Chapter 488 Xiaohou Ye, please say(1/2)
Looking down from the sky, the entire northwest is flat and there are almost no natural dangers. However, the reason why this place has been regarded as a single area since ancient times is different from the hinterland of the Central Region is its unique climate and harsh environment.
It is located in the north of the northern grassland and the western region. It is desert on both sides. It is hot in summer and cold in winter. It is windy all year round and has severe weathering.
When it is hottest, as soon as you enter the northwest boundary, you will sweat profusely, and even after stepping into the weathered rock forest, you can burn your feet; when it is coldest, no matter how thick the fur coat is, it is difficult to truly block the cold air from invading, and many people have to hide in the house and live the winter with a warm kang and a brazier.
However, such a bitter and cold place also has a unique scene.
Drought water.
The drought comes from the Western Regions, like a horse, running through the entire northwest region and entering the North River in the east. It is not only a scene in the northwest, but also an important proof for determining the northwest boundary. It is also the lifeline of the northwest.
The land in the northwest is barren, but there is always a small part suitable for cultivation, and this dry water is the source of cultivation.
Therefore, almost all major cities in the northwest are built on dry water, including five prefectures.
From west to east, the five northwest states fall by the water. The west is Qiangzhou, the east is Suzhou, and the Hanzhou is located in the center.
If you go southeast of Hanzhou, you can reach the mountains. Wuqu Mountain, where Kaiyang Sect is located, is located.
At this time, many disciples were asleep on Wuqu Mountain, but the lights were brightly lit in the conference hall. Several elders of the Kaiyang Sect, together with the head Erqiuyi, gathered here and were discussing.
"Did you understand the information about the Six Conscious Beads?" Erqiu sat in the upper head with a straight body, calm and calm manner. His lips opened and closed, making people feel awe-inspiring and trembling.
The elders gathered here knew that this momentum was actually the unique aura of innate warriors, and it was a resonance with the external energy when the innate true qi flowed in the body. Because the time for the first time to advance was still short, it could not be completely restrained.
It is difficult to restrain, but it makes people feel even more frightening, as if they are reminding others at all times, what kind of cultivation is this?
"Your Majesty, I have figured out the details. All the details are written on it." An old man stood up and answered respectfully. He handed over a booklet.
These elders have their own forces and extraordinary status within the sect. Some of them are even higher in seniority than Er Qiuyi. When the Kaiyang Catastrophe, the most outstanding disciples were slaughtered, leaving only a few of them, which is even more precious. When they speak with Er Qiuyi on weekdays, they are called the leader, but their etiquette is not thoughtful.
But since I was promoted to the innate world, the situation has changed, and the majesty is getting stronger and stronger, and no one dares to be arrogant anymore.
Erqiu nodded, took the booklet, and started reading it.
The hall was quiet when it was right away. Only the sound of turning the pages remained.
After a while, he put down the booklet and smiled: "These six sense beads are nothing but a tasteless thing to eat. It's a pity to abandon them. Since anyone who comes into contact will eventually go crazy, how can we prove the mystery?"
Listening to his words, it seemed that he didn't want to get involved. The old man at the lower head frowned, stood up, clasped his fists and said, "The chief clerk, if this bead is really useless, how can it lead to the four sects and one alliance in the north? It can be seen that there are secrets we don't know inside, but we are in the northwest and have not been well-informed and can't find out."
"Three Elder, what do you mean? But I feel that my disciples have not tried their best to inquire?"
As soon as the old man finished speaking, a man stood up next to him, blew his beard and stared at him.
"The Seventh Elder is such a bad statement. I am just talking about the matter!"
...
"Okay, OK, OK," he heard the quarrel gradually becoming densely in his ears, and said, "I know what you mean, I have already taken care of this."
"Please make it clear."
Erqiu stroked the beard on his chin and smiled, "This bead seems useless, but it is very big, and there is a possibility of hiding mysteries. I will try to open the Northwest Order in a while. When I explore the Battle Palace, I really need to prepare more."
"What does the head mean?"
"Tomorrow morning, I will set off for Hanzhou." Erqiuyi stopped going around and revealed his plans. "Now the northwest land is once again shrouded in mystery, and it is difficult for foreign innate masters to enter. In this way, our Kaiyang Sect will truly dominate the northwest land!"
As he said that, a sneer appeared on his face: "Kaiyang is one of the seven swords, but he has always been rejected. This time, each sect attacked and stepped into the northwest, but he didn't even say hello. It was too eye-catching! Just by taking advantage of the belonging of these six sense beads, I remind them that they are the masters in this northwest!"
"So that's it, the head is wise!"
After hearing this, many elders understood and realized that the head of their family was not very interested in the bead, but they planned to take advantage of the issue and show the power of the Kaiyang Sect to re-establish the position of the martial arts world.
In fact, this matter has always been the concern of the Kaiyang Sect. They are located in the northwest, far away from the hinterland of Central China, and are already at a marginal edge. The incident many years ago was even severely damaged and almost became a vassal of Daxi. Even the Seven Swords Alliance, which was originally on par, did not take them seriously.
The matter of the Dragon Cave was caused by Tianshu. However, an elder, although he had a high level of cultivation, was not the rank of the sect in terms of status, but he did not take the Kaiyang Sect seriously at all. He was domineering, as if he was a servant. However, the Kaiyang Sect was weak and dared not say much.
Finally, the leader of his own sect has advanced to the innate world. Not to mention in the northwest, he can still be regarded as a master even in the hinterland of Central China. How could they tolerate their current status? They were already ready to do something and regain their prestige.
The battle between the six sense pearls has triggered the five major sects in the north. Isn’t it the best opportunity?
In addition, the northwest has a special area, and it is difficult for foreign innate masters to enter. It can be said that it is safe. The already innate one is the well-deserved top master of the northwest. No one can compete with it except the one in Xizhou City.
Time! Good place! Harmonious people!
As soon as he thought of this, many elders felt that what was happening in front of him was a god-given opportunity!
"and……"
At this moment, Erqiu said again: "The Chen family escort agency has a grudge against our Kaiyang Sect. He had previously been concerned about the Northwest Army and the Princess Daning, so he was temporarily released. But now, since it is a matter of martial arts, we are not for personal grudges, but for the morality of the martial arts world. Even if something happens, how can others blame others?"
After hearing what he said, everyone else applauded!
"What the head of the sect said is! The Chen family thief was too bullying! Now I don't know where I am hiding. But my son is not the fault of his godfather, and he should settle the score with the Chen family!"
"That's right. The Chen family is too arrogant and has provoked our Kaiyang faction and dared to open an escort agency with great fanfare. Although our disciples have suppressed many of our disciples in the past two years, they are just small punishments, which is too cheap for them!"
"Yes, this time I settle the accounts, I will calculate the previous blood feud clearly. Blood debt and blood compensation!"
These elders gritted their teeth one by one, and the feeling made people feel as if they wanted to swallow the flesh and blood of the Chen family.
"Since that's the case, I'll leave tomorrow. Speaking of which, Junior Brother Zhu is now in Hanzhou. I don't know what the arrangement is. Those five major sects are not easy to meet..."
……………………
Just on Wuqu Mountain, many Kaiyang Sect giants set their schedule tomorrow. In the city of Hanzhou hundreds of miles away, the elder of Kaiyang Sect Zhu Jiedu looked angry.
Slap sex!
He patted the table beside him with a furious look: "Everyone, don't bully people too much! This Chen family escort agency, this Hanzhou, is in my northwest territory, under the eyes of my Kaiyang Sect! What the Chen family owns should be left to our Kaiyang Sect to take charge! It's no turn for outsiders to point fingers!"
His words were very tough, but he was a little lacking in confidence.
Opposite Zhu Jiedu, a monk who looked old and old clasped his hands together, chanted the Buddha's name low, and then said, "Mr. Zhu is such a bad word. The Six-Conscious Beads are originally from Xiaofan Temple, so I should take them back."
When Zhu Jiedu heard this, he sneered and retorted.
The two of them were not loud, but every word was clear, not only could they be heard in the room, but they could also be heard clearly outside the room.
At this time, two men were standing outside, the courtyard was deserted, and listening to these words, their faces became more and more ugly.
If Chen Qian was present, he would definitely recognize the identities of these two people as soon as possible, his second brother Chen Miao, and Chen Zhenliang's closed disciple, Di Feng.
"It's too much!"
As he listened, Chen Miao gritted his teeth hard, and even had a crystal clear look in his eyes. He has been practicing martial arts since he was a child and has been in the army for many years. Even the Chen family had undergone such a major change. However, when he heard the words of the people in the house, he could not bear it. If he had not forced himself to suppress it, he would have been unable to help but take action.
"Stop it, we don't have the capital to compete with others, we can only wait for the result of their discussion!" Di Feng shook his head, his face also looked bad.
Chen Miao said hatefully: "Result! Result! When we came to Hanzhou, we forced us to hand over some six sense beads and occupy the escort agency again! Now it is actually..."
Di Feng sighed and said, "What can I do?"
"That bead is not in our hands at all, but they decided it was here! Those who beat us, bullied the escort agency, occupied the house, and now they just spread the spoils openly. This..." Chen Miao said, his eyes red.
Shaking his head, Di Feng didn't want to continue this topic, and he was even more unwilling to stimulate Chen Miao, for fear that something irreversible would really happen. The two of them were here to wait for the results of discussion in the house.
Speaking of which, although the people in this room were bullying, they did not do anything. Like Chen Miao's words just now, they could not hide the many masters in the room, but those people did not care about it.
In fact, this is understandable. Everyone in the room is a well-known martial arts master. How could they be skeptical about an unknown junior like Chen Miao?
What's more, Chen Miao's combat power, in the eyes of everyone in the room, is no different from an ant. How could a person care about what the ant said?
However, in order to prevent Chen Miao from causing something irreversible under impulse, Di Feng had to change the topic and distract the other party: "By the way, I don't know how Brother Chen is doing, is his injury better?"
After hearing this, Chen Miao's face changed and he shook his head: "Uncle Second's injury has not improved. He has been seriously injured in the past few days and would have been overwhelmed. If it weren't for Miss Lan's pills, he would have fallen on the bed long ago."
When Di Feng heard this, he frowned: "It's so serious? I've been here these days and haven't seen the situation on the other side of the ring. I just heard that my second brother was injured... Why don't you stop him?"
Chen Miao lowered his head: "I can't stop it. Although the second uncle has not fully recovered, his temperament is no different from before. As long as someone challenges him, he must come forward in person. If he stops it, with his personality, you will also know the consequences."
Di Feng sighed: "That's right...but, the people on the ring probably didn't know that the few people in the room didn't intend to admit the result of the competition. No matter who wins, it's the same."
Chen nodded too.
It turned out that in addition to several major sects, there were many people from the world coming. Some of them were quite prestigious. They were afraid that the six major sects would not benefit from them, so they picked up the group, proposed the competition, set up a ring, challenged every day, and the winner and the Chen family fought. It has been going on for many days.
As the two talked, footsteps suddenly came, and then a woman in a palace dress came over, carrying a fruit basket in her hand.
Seeing the two, the woman looked up and looked at her. She didn't have much, so she stepped forward, pushed open the door and walked straight in.
Watching the woman walk in, Chen Miao's face turned worse.
Inside the room, a young man sat by the door. When he saw the woman coming in, he smiled and said, "I'm sorry, sister Ling."
The woman, known as Ling Mei, did not reply, but mechanically put the fruit basket and then retreated. The whole process was full of expression.
After the woman went out, the door closed again. The young man beside the door looked at the people in the room, and shook his head as he heard the quarrels made by the people over the six sense beads.
This young man was able to sit here because his friend knew how much he was, so he would not speak out proudly. He knew very well that his friend's personality seemed easy-going, but in fact he was indifferent and could not suffer any loss. If he liked to humiliate others, he would be a friend. If he was angry, he would still be dealt with, and he would often be worse than death.
Just like the woman just now, Chen Ling, who Chen Zhenliang regarded as his biological granddaughter, although she came here, she was no different from Miss Chen's family. The Chen family changed a lot and everyone betrayed her relatives. Chen Ling did not leave, but came to Hanzhou with Chen Zhenliang and his party. However, she suffered a major change and her temperament changed, which was even more pleasing than before.
As a result, this time, he was attracted by his young friend and said he wanted to take him as a concubine, but he was rejected. As a result, his young friend said he wanted to sharpen Chen Ling's character and forced Chen Ling to serve tea and pour water, as if he was a maid.
As he thought about it, he shook his head and sighed in his heart.
"Oh, I, Li Yingming, don't understand the big shots' thoughts."
This young man was Li Yingming, who had had a holiday with Chen Qian back then. His father was the prefect of Shazhou five years ago. Now he has been promoted all the way and has gone to the capital.
Compared with five years ago, Li Yingming's temperament has changed a little, and he seems to have become restrained and peaceful. However, even if he is a second generation who is arrogant and has a high official position, he must be cautious, because each of the people in the room represents a sect's power. At the command, the number of people mobilized is no less than a small army. Not to mention the top warriors in their sect.
To be continued...
