Chapter 219 Your Majesty, spare my life!

The man fighting with Lao Bai was a swordsman, and his martial arts skills were pretty good, at least his sword skills were passable. However, he was fighting in the lobby of the inn, and his sword skills and body skills were limited.

On the other hand, Lao Bai was like a fish in water, and he could immobilize the person who made the move within a few moves.

When the other two saw this, they immediately drew their swords and attacked Lao Bai from the left and the right. The sword skills of these two men were obviously superior and they cooperated skillfully. Lao Bai was soon at a disadvantage.

However, the two of them were quite restrained in their attacks. They didn't mean to hurt anyone, they just wanted to restrain Lao Bai.

Even though Lao Bai was beaten, he didn't ask Chu Yang for help.

Chu Yang laughed dumbly, and used his fingers to shoot out two sword energy, knocking down the swords of the two men.

"There are masters too!"

The two of them looked at Chu Yang in shock.

But the fight alarmed everyone in the inn. Before they could make any move, Tong Xiangyu hurriedly came down from the second floor.

"What are you doing, what are you doing, what are you doing, causing trouble and coming to my Tongfu Inn?!"

Tong Xiangyu glared and said aggressively.

"Shopkeeper, is there someone making trouble? Look at me!"

Guo Furong ran out of the backyard excitedly. She hadn't done anything with anyone for a long time, and it was the time when she felt itchy.

Xiucai and Dazui arrived last, hiding behind Guo Furong and watching.

"Sorry everyone, we didn't mean to cause trouble!"

"It's really an emergency. I hope you will understand me."

Seeing the large number of people at Tongfu Inn and the experts hiding among them, the trio chose to follow their heart and immediately became polite.

"Is something wrong?" Tong Xiangyu looked at the three of them up and down. They didn't look like good people.

"Shopkeeper, they said they are here to see Xiaobei." Lao Bai stood next to Tong Xiangyu and whispered.

The look of suspicion on Tong Xiangyu's face became even stronger, "Looking for Xiaobei? She is a child, why are you looking for her?"

The three of them said in unison: "Look for her to be the leader!"

"What leader?"

"Head of the Hengshan Sect!"

"Are you three from the Hengshan sect?"

Everyone looked at them in surprise.

The older member of the trio began to introduce himself.

"Lu Yiming, next to me is Junior Brother Zhu Xiaoyun, and the one whose acupuncture points were touched is Junior Brother Zhou Dunru."

Having said this, Lu Yiming smiled awkwardly and said: "We are all disciples of the Hengshan Sect, we are not bad people. Please help this brother to help my junior brother's acupuncture point."

Lao Bai glanced at Tong Xiangyu, who nodded, so he helped Zhou Dunru, who had a hot temper, relieve his acupoints.

"Good boy, good at kung fu!"

Zhou Dunru could move his front legs, but he picked up the sword with his back legs and wanted to continue fighting with Lao Bai, but his two senior brothers held him tightly.

"Even if you are disciples of the Hengshan Sect, if you want to mess around with me, I will still kick you out!"

Tong Xiangyu issued a final warning coldly.

Zhou Dunru then stood aside honestly, not daring to make further mistakes.

Tong Xiangyu continued: "Master Lu, I just want to ask, why do you want Xiao Bei to be the leader?"

"Actually, this is what happened..."

Lu Yiming recounted the experiences of the Hengshan Sect in recent years. Since the death of the previous leader of the Hengshan Sect, Mo Xiaobei’s brother Mo Xiaobao, the Hengshan Sect has been leaderless. In order to elect a new leader, the disciples fought After a few years, there will only be three people left. If we fight again, the faction will be destroyed. We can only choose Mo Xiaobei as the leader.

After all, the Hengshan sect belongs to her family, so it is natural for her to be the leader.

When Tong Xiangyu heard this, she couldn't refuse directly. It was reasonable for them to want Mo Xiaobei to be the head. As a new sister-in-law, she didn't have much say in this matter.

"Xiao Bei has gone to bed, otherwise you can talk to her the next day and see if she is willing to be the leader of the Hengshan Sect."

Tong Xiangyu could only use excuses to appease the three people first.

Lu Yiming discussed quietly with his junior brothers, and then agreed with Tong Xiangyu's opinion, planning to discuss the matter the next day. Tong Xiangyu immediately asked Lao Bai to arrange a place for them to sleep.

Before the three people left the lobby, they glanced at Chu Yang intentionally or unintentionally. Finally, Lu Yiming stepped forward and clasped his fists and said: "Your Excellency has a high level of cultivation. Lu Yiming admires him very much. I wonder if I can leave a name?"

"Who are you dating?" Lao Bai quickly pulled Lu Yiming away and dragged him away towards the backyard.

Tong Xiangyu hurriedly came over to apologize, "Your Majesty, I'm sorry for disturbing your rest so late at night."

"I just watched a good show in the lobby. It was quite interesting." Chu Yang said with a smile: "I have been staying at Tongfu Inn for a while. I guess I will leave in a few days."

"Let's stay a few more days." Tong Xiangyu was very anxious when she heard that the God of Wealth was leaving.

"Come back when I have the opportunity." Chu Yang declined gently. He actually liked the noisy atmosphere of Tongfu Inn all day long, but right now he had more important things to do.

Seeing that Chu Yang had decided to leave, Tong Xiangyu didn't want to persuade him to stay. He only said that he would entertain Chu Yang well in the next few days.

Early the next morning, there was a loud noise downstairs. As soon as Chu Yang came out, he saw a sharp-tongued woman standing in the lobby.

Shopkeeper Qian’s wife.

Mrs. Qian seemed to be a practicing master, and wanted to challenge Tong Xiangyu. How could Tong Xiangyu fulfill her wish and let Lao Bai tap her acupuncture point while she was not paying attention, and then Guo Furong beat her out with a powerful blow.

Mrs. Qian suffered a big loss and left with a few harsh words, meaning that she wanted to find someone to come again to cause trouble.

"Your Highness, are you awake? I asked Dazui to prepare breakfast for you. You can come down and eat it directly."

When Tong Xiangyu saw Chu Yang, her smile suddenly changed.

Chu Yang sat down to have breakfast, and Guo Furong came over quietly and asked in a low voice: "Senior brother, are you really going to leave and not stay any longer?"

"There are still things to deal with." Chu Yang peeled an egg and stuffed it into Guo Furong's mouth, hoping to shut her up temporarily.

Guo Furong was so choked that she rolled her eyes.

Just then, laughter came from the backyard.

Mo Xiaobei rode on Lu Yiming's neck, and the two came out of the backyard happily, followed by Zhou Dunru and Zhu Xiaoyun.

"Shopkeeper, Xiaobei has promised to be the leader of our Hengshan Sect. In a few days, we will hold a succession ceremony for the leader, and invite the leaders of various sects to watch the ceremony." Lu Yiming raised his head proudly.

Tong Xiangyu asked in surprise, "Where are you holding the succession ceremony?"

Zhou Dunru and Zhu Xiaoyun said in unison: "Of course it's here!"

Tong Xiangyu felt a headache when he heard this, and said angrily: "Do you know how much it costs to hold this ceremony?"

When they heard about the money, the three of them couldn't help but feel embarrassed, because Mo Xiaobao had sold almost all of the Hengshan Sect's properties back then, and now the Hengshan Sect was in name only, impoverished.

"There is no need for the shopkeeper to worry about this matter. We senior brothers have our own solutions."

Lu Yiming thought for a moment, as if he had made up his mind, and then he and his two senior brothers sent Mo Xiaobei to school.

Tong Xiangyu watched their leaving figures with a worried expression.

………

While Tongfu Inn was preparing for the succession ceremony, Lao Xing came to visit. In addition to catching the autumn wind, he also brought a piece of gossip.

Shopkeeper Qian's Wanli Pawnshop was robbed and dozens of taels of silver were lost. Lao Xing concluded that the perpetrator was a master. He said that no trace was left at the scene.

Speaking of this, everyone subconsciously focused their attention on Lao Bai.

"I went to bed early last night!" Lao Bai said angrily.

Not hearing the answer they wanted, everyone dispersed in disappointment, leaving only Lao Xing looking at Lao Bai in confusion.

Not long after Lao Xing left, Lu Yiming came back from outside. He also threw a bag of silver to Tong Xiangyu and made bold words to tell Tongfu Inn to run it well and not to make the succession ceremony too shabby.

Tong Xiangyu asked him where the money came from, but Lu Yiming stood up and left without answering. This left Tong Xiangyu with a knot in his heart. Lao Xing just said that Wanli Pawnshop was stolen.

So, she slammed the table angrily, picked up her purse and went to find Mo Xiaobei.

Chu Yang suddenly said: "Shopkeeper Tong and Lu Yiming traveled thousands of miles to come to Mo Xiaobei to ask her to take over as the boss, which shows that they are not bad at heart and should not be able to do that kind of thing."

Tong Xiangyu was stunned and turned to look at Chu Yang.

Chu Yang continued: "Yesterday I went to Zuojiazhuang and saw the three brothers and sisters performing arts on the street. The famous disciples of the Hengshan Sect have fallen like this. They should feel very uncomfortable. The shopkeeper should not go and expose people's scars. ”

Tong Xiangyu sat back and couldn't help but sigh: "It's all the trouble caused by the leader of the Hengshan Sect."

Chu Yang took out a few more silver ingots from his arms, handed them to Tong Xiangyu, and said: "Mo Taichong of the Hengshan Sect is a rare chivalrous person, a chivalrous man who truly serves the country and the people. The current situation in Hengshan makes people feel sad. This little money is just a token of appreciation, let’s have a good succession ceremony.”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Tong Xiangyu, who was rare, did not collect cash, but said sincerely: "What Your Majesty just said is more precious than silver. On behalf of Xiaobei, Xiangyu takes it very seriously. Don't worry, Tongfu Inn will handle the succession ceremony well. "

After saying that, Tong Xiangyu got up and went to the backyard, probably to educate Mo Xiaobei.

Guo Furong appeared out of nowhere and reached out to touch the silver on the table, but Chu Yang caught her fingers with chopsticks.

"Oh! It hurts! Brother, I was wrong!"

Chu Yang let go of his chopsticks and said with a smile: "If you don't want to make money yourself, why are you always thinking about taking other people's money? Be careful about being beaten by your father when you go back."

"He doesn't care about me!" Guo Furong covered her hands and said angrily: "I've been here for so long and I haven't seen him come to see me!"

Chu Yang said: "A lot of things happened these days, and I took some time off from my busy schedule. Don't blame him!"

Guo Furong curled her lips and said: "I know, you are all big shots. You deal with everything for the country and the people every day. You don't take small things to heart."

Hearing her angry words, Chu Yang didn't bother to continue.

Guo Furong quickly lowered her head and sighed softly, "It would be great if my dad was just a little catcher. He doesn't have to run around every day to catch endless thieves and can spend more time with me."

Chu Yang felt relieved when he thought of Guo Bujing stepping down as the instructor of the Forbidden Army. Perhaps for him, he didn't want to take on so many responsibilities.

But even if Guo Bujing were relieved of his duties as the chief catcher of the six gates at this time, he would not hesitate to go south to fight against the demon clan.

"Just wait a little longer. In two years, the world will be at peace, and Mr. Guo will be able to retire and return home with peace of mind."

"Hehehe, it would be best if that were the case."

"Don't laugh yet, think about the life you will have to face your father every day in the future."

"Ah? Then let's continue to be his chief catcher!"

…

News of the succession of the new leader of the Hengshan Sect has spread throughout the world, but not all sects have received the invitation, and not many have had friendships with the Hengshan Sect before.

Even the invited sects only send elders, rather than the leader coming in person. From a practical point of view, the Hengshan sect is here and there, and others sending elders is already considered a favor.

The abbot of Shaolin Temple, Zen Master Dabei, did not arrive, but instead sent the elder Master Xinmei.

It was Mu Taoist who came to watch the ceremony from Wudang Mountain.

Master Ku Hai of Huashan Sect.

The head of Emei Sect Dugu Yihe did not come, but sent the elder Xuan Jing nun.

The situation of other sects was similar.

Everyone thought it was an ordinary viewing ceremony, but who would have thought that Madam Qian, who showed up halfway, would give everyone a good show.

She did not recognize the elders of the major sects, and simply thought they were here to support Tong Xiangyu, so she led her people to stand at the gate and debate with the crowd.

What bald donkeys and old Taoist priests were considered to be relatively civilized in scolding, and she even made up the scandal of Master Xinmei and nun Xuan Jing nun, which made the two monks very angry.

Madam Qian, who had angered the public, got what she wanted and got a mixed fight of men and women. The scene of all the heads fighting together was the first time in the history of the whole world.

In the words of Tongfu Inn, what an honor!

The mixed fight pushed the succession ceremony to its climax, and more and more people came to watch the ceremony. Chu Yang also stood by the crowd to watch the excitement.

Until...

Mu Dao Ren, who had just finished dealing with Madam Qian, accidentally saw him.

This martial arts senior who claimed to be "the best in Go, the second in poetry and wine, and the third in swordsmanship" suddenly froze in place, with shock and fear in his eyes, and his emotions came one after another.

"Senior Mu, what's wrong with you?"

Lu Yiming noticed Mu Dao Ren's loss of composure and hurried forward to ask with concern.

Mu Dao Ren ignored him, pushed him aside, and walked through the crowd to Chu Yang.

"Do you recognize me?"

Before Mu Dao Ren spoke, Chu Yang's voice came to his ears.

Taoist Mu replied respectfully, "On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, I was in the palace. My original intention was to watch the duel between Ximen Chuxue and Ye Gucheng, but later I accidentally saw the Holy Face."

Chu Yang recalled that night, but Taoist Mu could not come to mind, so he asked, "Where did you see it?"

Taoist Mu bowed, his attitude became more humble, and whispered, "On the parade ground, I saw the power of heaven."

Chu Yang immediately realized that Taoist Mu accidentally saw the scene of his unilateral massacre of the Imperial Guards that night, so he was so respectful, because if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, it would be hard to imagine the fighting power.

Chu Yang raised his lips and asked meaningfully, "Didn't you go to the imperial study?"

Mu Dao Ren's body was shocked, and he said quickly, "I dare not."

Chu Yang smiled, "Is there anything that the old knife holder of Ghost Villa dare not do?"

Mu Dao Ren, who was humble, suddenly raised his head and looked at Chu Yang in horror, "You..."

Chu Yang said indifferently, "The whole world belongs to the king, and the people of the world are all the king's subjects. Wudang Mountain is also within the territory of the Ming Dynasty. Do I know that these things are strange?"

The famous people who came to watch the ceremony had already shifted their sights to the two people. They were curious about why the respected Mu Dao Ren was so restrained in front of the young man.

The people of Tongfu Inn were not surprised, because they knew that Chu Yang was of noble status, but the scene that happened next still made them stunned.

Mu Dao Ren knelt on the ground and kowtowed inexplicably.
