Chapter 239 Thirty-Six Peaks Long Sword

"Huiming?"

The monk who seemed to be walking on the moon announced his Dharma name from afar. His voice was like a huge bell, coming from all directions. There seemed to be a faint sound of Buddhist chanting, which was really deafening and enlightening.

If one's concentration was not sufficient and his internal strength was slightly weak, he would probably have converted to Buddhism on the spot.

When Xiao Yan heard the sound, he turned around and looked. He raised his two fingers, and the eight-sided Han sword that was stuck on the ground emitted layers of sword light, which spread out the rich Buddhist sound like a huge bell, and also slightly reduced the influence of the Buddhist sound on the second rudder of bad people who were carrying the captives away behind him.

It is not a big deal if one does not have enough concentration, but it is a big deal if someone fails to react in time and tries to use internal force to resist the Buddha's sound, which will backfire and result in failure to resist and internal injuries.

As for others, this voice of surprise was actually from Yang Shuzi, who had been silent all this time. He suddenly narrowed his eyes and turned back to look at the visitor in a cassock, who had a resolute face, a tall figure, and looked more like a warrior than a monk. His face was moved.

It was obvious that the two must be old acquaintances.

"Amitabha."

The so-called monk in cassock was Huiming. He of course saw Xiao Yan using the sword to wipe out his Buddhist chanting, but he stopped immediately and apologized in a serious tone.

"Don't blame me, Mr. Xiao. I have been practicing the Lion's Roar technique at the Dharma Academy recently. I have just started to learn it. I was unable to control it at the moment, which led to misunderstandings. It is my fault."

Xiao Yan just looked at Shi Yao with empty eyes and said nothing. Instead, he first locked a few acupoints on Shi Yao beside him, one to immobilize her, and the other to stabilize her breath.

That's all. He ignored Shi Yao's surprised expression, took a step forward, and smiled expressionlessly.

"Master, are you not here to use force?"

"Amitabha." Huiming bowed again, this time looking at Yang Shuzi: "Donor Xiao should be able to see that I came here uninvited for Donor Yang, but all the arrangements of the bad commander were broken by Donor Xiao, so I should not overestimate my own abilities."

After that, he politely said to Yang Shuzi: "Donor Yang, long time no see."

Yang Shuzi was slightly moved. He pondered for a moment but just nodded, as if there was something in the past that was difficult to hide and could not be revealed at the moment.

"hiss……"

In the distance, Gong Yang held Kuichou in his left hand and walked over, pulling his proud beard on his chin, narrowing his eyes and saying, "Captain, I think I have heard a little about this little monk."

Xiao Yan nodded. In fact, when he heard the word "Hui Ming" just now, a flash of inspiration seemed to pass through his mind, but it seemed that his memory was long gone. After all, he was still unfamiliar with the name and could not remember who this person was for a while.

"Heavenly Wisdom Star."

At this time, Shi Yao, who had just started to meditate on the ground, closed his eyes and said, "Gaya Temple Huiming is also one of the thirty-six stars of the Bad People, and the eighth generation of the Bad People."

Xiao Yan nodded slightly.

Gong Yangzuo clapped his fist and suddenly realized, "Yes, it is Gaya Temple. I was wondering why the three words "Dharma Temple" sounded so familiar. Then, little monk, who are you, Dharma Temple Huijue?"

Huiming had a fierce face and a huge frame. If it weren't for the scar on his head, he would look like a gangster. He even looked nothing like the word "Hui". However, his words and actions were unusually polite and courteous.

"Venerable Huijue is my senior fellow apprentice."

"I see..." Gong Yangzuo stroked his beard and whispered to Xiao Yan, "Captain, Huijue of Gaya Temple is a great master of Buddhism and his strength should not be underestimated. This little monk, whether he is Tianhuixing or Huiming, must be quite capable to be his junior brother. Don't take him lightly because of a few words..."

"it is good."

Meanwhile, Huiming bowed to Shiyao and shook his head, sighing, "What Tianyouxing said is true. I was once a bad person called Tianhuixing, but I did something wrong many years ago and I am no longer worthy of this title. Now I have converted to Buddhism. There is no Tianhuixing in the world anymore. There is only a disciple of Gaya Temple, Huiming."

In the distance, Yang Shuzi heard the words and looked at the moon in silence.

"So, Master, what do you want to do on this trip?"

As the saying goes, you should never hit a smiling person. Although Huiming was a tough guy, he was also a Buddhist. He was very polite after he showed up, so Xiao Yan was not stingy with his polite words to him.

And at this moment, he seemed to understand vaguely why Huiming was associated with the words "Tianhui".

If we simply look at his appearance, he might have been a rough and ruthless warrior in his early years. However, it is said that it is easy to hold a knife but difficult to put it down. Looking at the way he now looks wholeheartedly praying to Buddha, it is obvious that he has a very high wisdom.

Upon hearing this, Huiming naturally bowed and replied: "When I converted to Buddhism, I had already decided to live in seclusion in Gaya Temple for the rest of my life and not care about the secular world. However, Buddhism is pure, but one must cut off the seven emotions and six desires of the secular world. I came here for the first time because of the request of the Buliang Commander, and secondly to cut off the shackles of the secular world, so I appeared here."

After he finished speaking, he paused for a moment, but he did not avoid the people present. He looked at Xiao Yan and said, "Donor Xiao, you know that if you insist on trapping Donor Yang here, the arrangements of the bad commander will not stop here. What happened tonight will definitely not be tonight."

"I know." Xiao Yan responded calmly: "But if we don't do what we did tonight, I'm afraid that I won't even be qualified to do what we did tonight in the future."

Upon hearing this, most of the people around him were confused. Shi Yao, who was beside him, was even a little dazed. She subconsciously wanted to open her eyes to see, but in the end she had to hold back.

Gong Yangzuo just smiled and held his sword in his hand, looking fearless, as if he was ready to risk everything to win against Xiao Yan. Moreover, among those present, Xiao Yan only told him the so-called words of the prince.

As for Yang Shuzi, he remained silent after hearing the voice. He just stared at the moonlight in the sky, and it was unknown what he was thinking.

Huiming was slightly startled, but not surprised, and then said: "Donor Xiao is a decisive person, and I am not in a position to persuade him. But I have only one thing to say, Donor Xiao is so angry that he broke with the bad leader at this time. Is it worth it?"

"break……"

Xiao Yan actually shook his head and laughed.

"Is the so-called break really happening now? The word break has been imposed since the Marshal decided to send people to Bianjing. To be honest, if the Marshal sent someone to ask for Tian Lixing openly, I would definitely hand him over respectfully without any hesitation. But will reality be like this?

Tianhuixing... Oh no, Master Huiming, you are here on behalf of the bad commander, so you should know that what happened tonight is not just for Tianlixing."

His tone was not strong, even very light, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him, but it made Huiming, who seemed to be prepared, speechless for a moment.

Among the people present, those bad guys who were just following orders naturally didn't know, but people like Shi Yao, Kuichou, Gongyang Zuo and others, didn't they know?
What Tian Kui and Shi Yao did tonight was not as simple as sending people to kidnap Yang Shuzi. If it was really that simple, Xiao Yan could just open the door and invite them in to take their people away.

But they came to take Yang Shuzi away just because the commander-in-chief officially began to plan to deal with Xiao Yan!

In other words, it was Yang Shuzi who started the scheme, dragging the Anle Pavilion Group headed by Xiao Yan into a script created by Yuan Tiangang himself, and officially started the plot for the prince that the bad guys should respect.

Everyone in the world has joined the game.

And Yang Shuzi was the one who started this.

So since he understood this truth, why should Xiao Yan submit and on what basis should he submit?

Are all the hard work we have put in going to be thrown away in such a ridiculous way?
Just as he said to Gong Yangzuo and others at the Yingzhou branch that day -

As a man, no matter how fate plays tricks on you, no matter how difficult the world is, you should struggle hard, fight to the death, and never lower your head as a man.

As long as you are still alive, you should try your best to draw your sword!

Such a sad thing happened to him, even if Yuan Tiangang came in person tonight, he would still dare to face him calmly with his sword drawn.

I have no regrets in death, that's all.

From the very beginning, what he wanted to fight was never Li Xingyun or Yuan Tiangang, but only this world, this world where people die everywhere.

It won't change because of anyone.

"..." Huiming looked at Xiao Yan, who had a calm expression on his face. He pondered for a long time, then walked forward with a wry smile.

"In this case, Mr. Xiao, why don't you and I each take a step back?"

"How do we withdraw?"

"Donor Xiao, you should know that I was entrusted by the bad commander. I would not show up tonight unless it was absolutely necessary." Huiming said politely, "But the bad commander may have expected that Donor Xiao would be prepared, so he gave me another plan."

Xiao Yan didn't answer.

After Tian Kui and his group entered the city of Bian Jing, it was natural for them to visit Anle Pavilion. Thanks to the early establishment of the takeout industry, as soon as their traces were slightly revealed, they had already become the focus of special attention.

Afterwards, over the past few days, Kuichou and his gang have been acting under Xiao Yan's silent watch, so of course they were prepared and had been holding back, just waiting for tonight. He hadn't even told Ji Ruxue about this, and Duan Chengtian under him was also kept in the dark.

Ninety-nine percent of the people mobilized in this operation were the ninth generation of bad guys, that is, the younger generation, and the remaining 0.1% was naturally Gong Yang Zuo.

It's not that he doesn't trust the Eighth Generation of Bad People, he just doesn't want them to have any psychological burden. The actual split with Yuan Tiangang this time was a shocking move for them, even if they had been prepared before.

Because this is different from the original surrender to Liang and other matters, because even if it is surrender to Liang, the ultimate motive is the same as that of Cangbinggu. But today, openly fighting against the people sent by Cangbinggu is already a way to confront each other, establish one's own mountain, and seek death.

But Huiming's words are very interesting. Yuan Tiangang was obviously able to calculate that Tiankui and his group would not be able to accomplish anything, so why did he still send them?

Xiao Yan guessed that perhaps the commander-in-chief was just testing his strength and wanting to lead Huiming out naturally.

"..."

Seeing that Xiao Yan did not answer, Hui Ming was at a loss again. After pondering for a moment, he dropped the staff in his hand and left it standing to show that he had no hostility. Then he took a step forward and said, "Donor Xiao, if you take a step back, the bad commander can also take a step back."

After saying this, he looked around, used his inner strength to isolate himself from all sides, and said, "If Donor Xiao can hand over Donor Yang to me tonight, then Commander Buliang will be able to do something that will definitely benefit Donor Xiao."

"What's the matter?" Xiao Yan asked calmly.

"As long as he is alive, the Bad Leader will never take action himself. To put it bluntly, he will never take action against you, Mr. Xiao." Huiming was also calm, as if he was really talking about a Bad Leader who had nothing to do with him. Even his tone was just that of a bystander.

"And there is one more thing. In the next two years, he will not let the bad guys from various departments interfere with what Mr. Xiao does, but he will not let them support him either, just like in the past."

After he finished speaking, he paused and then responded seriously.

"Two years later, no matter what the current situation is like, and no matter what happens to Mr. Xiao in this world—

In the battle of destiny, everyone depends on their own ability. "

Judging from his tone, he was obviously vaguely aware of the so-called entrusting of an orphan to someone else.

"Two years..."

Unexpectedly, after hearing it, Xiao Yan did not react as much as he had imagined. Instead, he couldn't help laughing while reciting these two words.

"So, the Marshal wants to make a gentleman's agreement with me?"

Huiming was stunned, thinking about these four words, and nodded: "That's right."

"I have never considered myself a gentleman." Xiao Yan still shook his head and laughed, then nodded: "But, the Marshal should be a gentleman, right?"

Huiming was stunned again, but he didn't know how to answer. He pondered for a while before nodding.

"Then I will accept Master Huiming's advice."

Xiao Yan smiled again, and suddenly stepped back, crossing his hands and bowing: "Since Master Huiming is the middleman, I have no choice but to believe it. So be it. Within two years, if anything unexpected happens, Xiao will inevitably have to disturb the Gaya Temple."

Huiming was just about to go and help him, but when he heard the following words, he was stunned again.

At this time, the method of isolating the four sides with internal force had become ineffective. Xiao Yan's voice and attitude naturally attracted Gong Yang Zuo and others to come and see, and they could not help but secretly speculate about what he had said in the past two years.

As for Master Huiming, he was in a difficult situation and could only smile bitterly and said, "I dare not accept such a great gift from Mr. Xiao."

Xiao Yan stood up calmly and pointed at Kuichou, Shi Yao and others: "These people have been guests in my Anle Pavilion for half a decade. Master Huiming, please go back and tell the Marshal for me."

"Amitabha." Huiming clasped his hands together and responded.

"ram……"

Xiao Yan turned around and was about to give instructions to Gong Yang Zuo, but paused. After pondering for a moment, he walked over himself, unblocked the acupoints on Yang Shuzi's body, and responded calmly.

"Shangguan just sent me the news about Jianlu today by pigeon. Li Xingyun is nowhere to be found. You can definitely find him if you follow Huiming."

This sentence almost pointed out that the so-called fire in the sword pavilion was intentional, but Yang Shuzi did not answer this sentence. Instead, he bowed politely.

"Thank you."

He thanked Xiao Yan for letting bygones be bygones and understood his concern for his students.

Xiao Yan just said calmly: "Don't thank me. If it weren't for what happened tonight, your best ending would be to die immediately, which would be good for everyone."

Everyone around him was shocked when he heard this, and none of them knew what it meant.

Yang Shuzi smiled calmly, brushed his sleeves, bowed again, and left towards Huiming.

"But let's put it this way. If you give me the sword technique, I will give you a piece of long and short sentences."

Xiao Yan's voice came from behind.

"In the past, Li Bai reached the realm of the Sword Immortal in Songshan Mountain. Since Tian Lixing is his only successor a hundred years later, he should also get this poem."

Yang Shuzi turned around to look.

But Xiao Yan stretched out his hand and the eight-sided Han sword in the distance rose lightly and fell into his hand.

Then, a few lines of words appeared on the floor in the shape of sword energy.

It is:

When drunk, I dance with long sleeves and hear the crowing of cocks, sing short songs, and feel awe-inspiring. In the northwest of China, there is still a new pavilion. The long swords of the thirty-six peaks are there, and the stars are fighting, majestic and magnificent.

Since ancient times, there have been many heroes in You and Bing, with white hair on their temples, what have they achieved? When he is granted the title of a marquis, for whom will he write his letters? I shed tears on the fishing altar, the wind is strong, the rain is dark.

"Thirty-six Peaks... the long sword is here..."

Yang Shuzi muttered to himself, wiped his eyes, looked carefully, and was startled again: "What has happened to the white hair on my temples..."

He looked up suddenly, only to see that Xiao Yan's figure had gone, leaving only an eight-sided Han sword inserted on the last character "Ming".

"see a visitor out."
