In fact, when writing these heroic posts, it was the abbot Huiguang who read to Huizhen with a list. While he was reading, Abbot Huizhen wrote at the same time, and it took a whole night to finish writing a thousand copies of the heroic posts.

But can Huiguang remember the people on the invitation list?He also couldn't remember that this list was neither drawn up by Huizhen nor his Huiguang, but was discussed by several of their management leaders with Uncle Xuansheng.

I was so dizzy that night, who can remember whether Tie Gongju and Zhao Fu are on the list?And he didn't bring this list with him right now, so when Huizhen asked him, he could only scratch the back of his head and say, "Amitabha, sin, sin."

It’s just that everyone was discussing in a low voice while looking at the door, and when two people entered the door, they took a closer look, but they all felt uneasy at the same time. Even these two young and frail scholars dared to call Jiutian Lanyue and Wuyang Zhuyu ?

What a joke!

At the moment when he saw the person coming, even Huizhen, the abbot of Shaolin, didn't bother to think about whether he had written the names of these two people, and how?So what if you haven't written it?In short, these are two extravagant guests, and they can be dismissed casually.

He didn't even bother to greet the visitor, he just waved his hand: "Look at the seats."

Chapter 1099 The Battle of the Martial Arts Leader

The seats in the Daxiong Palace are clearly distinguished between the host and the guest. Not only are the seats for the host and the guests clearly distinguished, but they are also divided into ranks among the respective seats of the host and the guest.

Among the host seats in Dongshou, the current Shaolin abbot, Master Huizhen, sits in front of Namo Disaster Relief and Longevity Medicine Buddha on the right side of the three innermost Buddha statues.

The abbot is an absolute leader in the monastery, there is no dispute about this, and on the left and right sides of him, except for Master Huiguang, the abbot of Shaolin sitting on the right, there are a few vacant seats, and I don’t know why. Whoever reserved it should be an eminent monk in Shaolin Temple, because this is the chairman.

Across these vacant seats, dozens of monks from Shaolin Temple sat in turn.

Others don't need to know the names of these monks, they only need to know their identities and status in Shaolin Temple according to their seats, the closer to the temple gate, the lower their status.However, since there are only a few dozen monks who can sit in the Great Hall, one can know without guessing that these monks are not ordinary Shaolin disciples, and they must have positions in the temple.

The seats of the guests are all arranged at the west end, and the closer to the three Buddha statues, the more honorable. The seat next to the Namo Amitabha Buddha on the left side of the three Buddha statues is the most honored guest seat, and Zhou Tong sat there. There is also no controversy. There may be people in this world whose martial arts are similar to Zhou Tong, but they will definitely not be more famous than Zhou Tong.

Next to Zhou Tong is Tianmu Taoist, the head of the Kunlun Sect, followed by Wu Changfeng, the elder of the Beggar Sect, Kong Mingzi, the head of the Kongtong Sect, Duanmuyu, the head of the Nanhai Sword Sect, Yuan Zhentao, the leader of the Yellow River Sect, and Zhu Jia Head teacher Zhuang Tingyu, abbot Shenshan of Wutai Mountain Qingliang Temple and other leaders of several big gangs, and further down are the heads or masters of some less influential Jianghu sects.

The martial arts in this era is different from the martial arts in a hundred years later. There is no such thing as six major schools or eight major schools. In this era, the famous ones are the three bandits, the two major gangs, the Yuquan gym, the Shaolin Temple, and one village and one city. and Twelve Hills.

The three major bandits are naturally Fang La, Wang Qing and Tian Hu. These three major forces each occupy a separate side. The martial arts sects within the sphere of influence must either seek refuge or surrender, or move away. It is impossible to be unique.

Therefore, in the three major regions of Huainan in northern Zhejiang, Hunan, Hubei, Guangxi, and central Shanxi, there are very few martial arts sects that can be independent. Then there are the sects of Buddhism and Taoism, which do not compete with the world, so they can avoid military disasters, such as Qingliang Temple and Wenshu Monastery on Mount Wutai.

In addition to the three most powerful bandits, there are two other gangs with profound backgrounds, that is, the Beggars' Gang and the Yellow River Gang.Needless to say, only the Yellow River Gang, although not as full of disciples as the Beggar Gang, controlled the waterways from Gansu, Shanxi, Henan, Hebei, and even most of the Yellow River Basin in Shandong, thus occupying a place in the martial arts world.

Under the two major gangs are the two sects of Yuquan Gym and Shaolin Temple.It stands to reason that the Shaolin Temple has a longer history than the Yuquan Gym, so it should be ranked first, but the Yuquan Gym is opened in the capital, and has obtained an official business license, which is equivalent to a martial arts teaching institution with an official background. Dong's personal influence, it is not an exaggeration to call it the world's largest martial arts faction, even the two major gangs are inconvenient to compete with it, so Zhou Tong can be seated as the guest of honor.

On the other hand, Shaolin Temple is very aggrieved under the current emperor’s concept of advocating Taoism and restraining Buddhism. If you want to get the support of the court, don’t even think about it. It’s good if you don’t send the imperial army to ban you. Down?So even if Shaolin Temple is still regarded as Taishan Beidou by martial arts people, it is not as good as Yuquan Gym in the eyes of martial arts people.

One level worse than Yuquan Gym and Shaolin Temple is one village and one city. The village is Zhujiazhuang, and the city is Zengtou City. You can sit next to the leader of the Yellow River Gang.

As for the Twelve Mountains, they are Qingfeng Mountain, Erlong Mountain, Shaohua Mountain, Liangshan Mountain, Mangdang Mountain, Huangmen Mountain, Taohua Mountain, Duiying Mountain, Dengyun Mountain, Kushu Mountain, Baihu Mountain and Yinmachuan Mountain. .

These twelve cottages are located in the Yellow River Basin and the Jianghuai area. They robbed houses and houses, cut paths and blackmailed them. They can be called twelve local snakes.Although the individual strength is far inferior to Zhujiazhuang and Zengtou City in the past, no matter who they are, as long as they pass by these twelve cottages, they will always be unable to calm down.

Because these characters don't tell you the morals and martial arts rules of the rivers and lakes at all. If you want to prescribe medicine, you will prescribe medicine, if you need to smoke incense, you will smoke incense, and they will use all means to do things.

What is little known is that these twelve mountain tops have been almost integrated by Liangshan, and then belonged to the Bai family army. Anyway, Shaolin Temple’s big hero post can’t be posted to these mountain kings. It’s just a reminder to those monks who post hero posts Be careful when passing these hills.

Just talking about strength, under these twelve mountains, those martial arts sects in Cailun's upper rivers and lakes that are free from the three major bandits, as for the Kunlun and Kongtong sects, they are not included in the strength ranking because they are not in the Central Plains.

Arranged in this way, Qingcheng and Penglai are not considered to be any great sects. Bai Sheng and Princess Iron Fan are not even qualified to greet the abbot of Shaolin, so they were introduced by the Zhike monk to the guest table at the entrance of the main hall, and they were ranked first. In the end, it is not even as good as the Funiu faction in Nanyang, Henan. After all, the Funiu faction is in the same Henan province as Shaolin, and the distance between Nanyang and Dengfeng is not very far. It can be regarded as the relationship between neighbors.

Neither Bai Sheng nor Princess Iron Fan complained about this. Of course they like to keep a low profile and go into the crowd to watch what happens. Where is Ding Chunqiu's son?

The two of Bai Tie were seated, and even if an episode was over, the people in the Daxiong Palace picked up the previous topic again. Wu Changfeng, the leader of the beggar gang, had just made a speech, and now he said casually: "I don't think there is any need to choose the leader of the martial arts. It's up to Senior Zhou to undertake it all."

Before the arrival of Bai Sheng and Princess Iron Fan, people in the Daxiong Palace were discussing the matter of the leader of the martial arts.

The rat eradication alliance is the martial arts alliance. It is said that a person cannot fly without a head, and a bird cannot fly without a head. If you want to do great things, you must have a big brother who takes the lead. This is the consensus of all martial arts figures.Who will lead everyone to deal with Bai Sheng?

Originally, Shaolin abbot Huizhen was allowed to be the leading brother, but the attitude of Shaolin Temple was disappointing——When talking about how to deal with Bai Sheng and Ding Chunqiu, Abbot Huizhen said that the Buddhist precept of killing only needs to take Bai Sheng and Ding Chunqiu into consideration. The two of Chunqiu were confined in the Shaolin Temple, and it was enough for them to face the wall and think about their mistakes, and not to go out to cause trouble in the world.

How can this work?

Cutting the grass does not remove the roots, and the spring breeze blows and regenerates!How did Ding Chunqiu escape from your Shaolin Temple more than ten years ago?Lesson learned yet?

This is only superficially questioning the abbot of Shaolin, but what most people think in their hearts is that if Bai Sheng really has treasures on him, if someone robs him of his treasures, it will be no wonder he doesn't seek revenge from that person, you Shaolin Temple couldn't see Ding Chunqiu more than ten years ago, and now you can't see Bai Sheng even more. If one day Bai Sheng escaped from the cage, remember that those who participated in the rat extermination alliance today came to him one by one, how would the consequences be unimaginable?

Abbot Huizhen's point of view was opposed by the vast majority of people, so the leading brother in people's minds has no chance with him.

Huizhen himself also understands this point, but he doesn't really care who will be the leading brother, as long as Ding Chunqiu is captured, he will be worthy of the evil monk who died under Ding Chunqiu's hands. If Ding Chunqiu was to be executed, then he would be executed, anyway, it was not me, a Shaolin monk who committed murder and violated the precepts.

Originally, the only candidates in people's minds were Zhou Tong and Huizhen. Zhou Tong was the most respected and famous, while Huizhen was the leader of the host. No matter which of the two was the leader, it made sense. I hope Huizhen will be the leader of the alliance, then only Zhou Tong will be left.

So everyone echoed Wu Changfeng's proposal one after another. Zhou Tong had already stood up and started waving his hands. Next, he must say something like: "He De He Neng, etc., but unexpectedly at this time, the head of Kongtong Sect, Kong Ming Zi Zi interjected: "Since the leader of the martial arts is being elected, the candidate's martial arts must be the best in the world, right?"

As soon as these words were uttered, there was no sound in the hall, because everyone could understand what Kong Mingzi meant. Zhou Tong was originally recognized as the number one master in the world. The implication is that you are going to challenge Zhou Tong?

Coincidentally, there are still people who agree with Kong Mingzi's statement: "The Taoist priest Kong Mingzi said it is very true, but this martial arts is the best in the world, but he didn't say it with his mouth. You have to compare it to know how good it is."

Everyone followed the sound and found that it was one of the guests who spoke. This person had a horse face, and his appearance was extremely ugly. People didn't want to take a second look after one glance, although no one wanted to stare at his face. Looking at his face does not prevent people from being deeply impressed with him. Most of them can remember the name sung by the Zhike monk when this person came.

When Bai Sheng saw this person, his heart was moved, because the figure of this person was exactly the same as that of the person he had swept with his martial spirit outside Juxian Village, and his voice was also the same. "Big Veda Pestle".

Perhaps including Qi Shisan and the suffering master who is now blocked outside the gate of Shaolin Mountain, it was Zhong Wanchou who rescued them?Except for those people who entered Juxian Village and never came out, he only met Zhong Wanchou, a stranger along the way, so he felt that this person was most likely the one who rescued people in Qijiaji.

Others here have also heard of the name of Zhong Wanchou, the horse king of Wanjie Valley, but they have never met, because the owner of Zhong Valley never likes to go out, and only stays on his own one-acre three-point land. It is said that he is afraid Wife steals after going out

Hearing Zhong Wanchou's words at this time, he clearly wanted to provoke a competition in the ring, which was very much in line with everyone's wishes.

Naturally, there is no wine or meat to entertain everyone in Shaolin Temple, and we don't know when Bai Sheng will come or whether he dares to come, so wouldn't it be boring to just sit and talk like this?Only when there is a martial arts competition can there be excitement, so some people nodded repeatedly, meaning that they agreed with Zhong Wanchou's proposal. Anyway, it's not me competing with Zhou Tong, it doesn't matter if you Kong Mingzi or Zhong Wanchou, just go up and make gestures.

Kong Mingzi let the words out, and it was aimed at Zhou Tong, so Zhou Tong couldn't be indifferent, and sighed: "Brother Kong Ming, can't you swallow that breath back then? This is a new brilliant move. right?"

He naturally knew that Kong Mingzi would come to him for another match sooner or later. This matter had nothing to do with hatred, but it was related to the face of both parties and the reputation of the sect. Thinking that the Kongtong School is not as good as Yuquan Gym, and Kong Mingzi is not as good as Zhou Tong, there is no end to this matter.

Kong Mingzi was told what was on his mind, but he didn't deny it, and said: "Since Brother Zhou is so clear about what happened, Pindao won't go around the corner. In fact, Pindao doesn't want to be the leader of this martial arts alliance. Brother Zhou, ask for advice once."

Only then did the words fall, only to hear a rough voice resounding in the hall: "It's fine if you don't want to be the leader of the alliance, then let me be the leader!"

I don't know how much internal energy was carried in this voice, and it only shook the candles around the hall to flicker and flicker. Everyone was shocked, and at the same time, they were also surprised why this person called himself "Zhen". Is this the Daxiong Hall of Shaolin Temple?But he couldn't find where the speaker was hiding.

Just listen to the voice and continue to say: "Don't look for it, I'm still outside the mountain gate, and the little monks from Shaolin Temple come out to greet me quickly?"

Everyone was even more surprised when they heard it. People outside the mountain gate heard Kong Mingzi talking in the Daxiong Palace. Is this Tianertong?Moreover, it can also transmit the sound to the Daxiong Palace. How deep is the inner strength to achieve this?

Thinking that people here are all looking at Zhou Tong, wanting to see how Zhou Tong will react, people feel that if there is one person present who can beat this person who calls himself "Zhen", then this person must be Zhou Tong.

Zhou Tong's expression also became serious, even though he didn't take Kong Mingzi's challenge seriously before, but now he heard this person's voice transmission, he couldn't help but become serious, and said in the same voice transmission: "I said Who is it, it turns out that Master Fang has arrived, you and I have been trapped in the empty island, and it has only been three months, and Master Fang's martial arts has improved so fast!"

As soon as he said this, Huizhen, the abbot of Shaolin Temple, changed his expression, it was actually Fang La!This person is an enemy, not a friend, and a powerful enemy!

As early as 40 years ago, Fang La's master Huo Shan was once an enemy of the Shaolin Temple, hiding at the foot of the mountain to kill the Shaolin disciples who left the temple alone. If the sweeping monk did not take action, the Shaolin Temple would no longer exist.

This section of martial arts secrets was recorded in the temple annals of Shaolin Temple, and Shaolin Temple annals can only be viewed by previous abbots. If he hadn’t taken over as abbot from Naishi Xuanci, Huizhen would not have known that there was such a deep hatred between Mingjiao and Shaolin .
