Chapter 272 Wuming joins Shaolin Wudang to express his stance
The middle-aged figure pondered for a moment, and in his sad eyes, the hesitation gradually disappeared and turned into determination.
“You can join the imperial court as a teacher, but you don’t hold a specific position, just name it.
And if one day, the imperial court is no longer as dedicated to the people as it is now, The master will leave." The middle-aged figure looked at Zhao Zheng and said solemnly.
"Disciple understands." Zhao Zheng was overjoyed, nodded heavily, and said happily: "Disciple will report Master's matter to His Majesty, and His Majesty will definitely be very happy."
The middle-aged figure also smiled and said nothing.
I hope you won’t be disappointed.
"Master, this disciple also wants to take advantage of your reputation. With your reputation, Master, the martial arts community in Shaanxi will definitely be quieter and more cooperative." Zhao Zheng smiled respectfully.
"You can decide what to do with your reputation." The middle-aged figure said without hesitation.
He is always willing to do things that are beneficial to the people of the world.
Soon, Zhao Zheng used the fastest speed to send the news to the capital.
He knew that now was a critical moment, and the joining of a great master in the extreme realm was a very important event for the current court.
Can clearly enhance the power of the imperial court.
More than a day later, Zhu Houzhao received the report from Zhao Zheng and was overjoyed.
Anyone who is a strong person in the Grand Master Realm joining us is very good for the court.
After thinking about it, he immediately issued an order.
Appoint Wuming as the deputy master of the Martial Arts Hall.
The decree quickly traveled to Shaanxi, and the news spread in advance. With the promotion of Jin Yiwei, it spread to all parts of the Ming Dynasty.
The Heavenly Sword Wuming, known as the martial arts myth, joined the imperial court and became the deputy master of the Imperial Martial Arts Hall with his extreme strength as a grand master.
Suddenly, even though a martial arts conference was about to be held, it aroused countless people's discussion.
The power of the Ming court became a little stronger.
Those martial arts forces have become more solemn.
The Ming court becomes more and more powerful, and they will be more easily manipulated.
Shaanxi, Wuming took over the decree and was satisfied in his heart.
This position is high enough, showing the sincerity of Emperor Shengwu and the court.
At the same time, although he is the deputy palace master, his powers and responsibilities are not clearly defined. In other words, he can do nothing as long as he doesn't want to.
Just what he wanted.
In the land of Shaanxi, Wuming’s reputation here is the strongest.
Even the Dugu Sword Master was defeated by Wu Ming. The name of the martial arts myth also originated from the land of Shaanxi, and he was known as the strongest man in Shaanxi.
It can be said that Wuming's influence in the Shaanxi martial arts world ranks first at this time when both Tianxiahui and Wushuang City have been captured.
After he joined the imperial court, it was visible to the naked eye that Shaanxi Wulin became more honest.
Zhao Zheng’s finishing process has been further smoothed and accelerated.
Many powerful people, under the influence of Wuming, are willing to join the imperial court.
It is not just the situation in Shaanxi that is increasing the strength of the imperial court.
In other places, among the captured forces, many of those whose crimes were not severely punished were willing to join the court and perform meritorious service for their crimes.
There are also many strong casual cultivators, as well as strong men from some forces, who openly or covertly contacted the factory guards and expressed their willingness to join the imperial court.
Almost every day, the power of the imperial court is getting stronger.
The invisible general trend that enveloped the Ming Dynasty has become overwhelming and powerful, oppressing the martial arts forces step by step.
Of course, when there is oppression, there will be resistance.
Under the overwhelming pressure of the imperial court, most of the remaining martial arts forces were unwilling to bow their heads and let them be slaughtered.
They also united together to resist the general trend of the court.
The upcoming martial arts conference is their act of resistance.
In the entire Ming Dynasty, these two major forces are now the only ones left.
As for the power of other strata, it cannot be said to be insignificant, but it cannot affect the overall situation.
Time passes day by day, and the closer it is to December 1st, the more people from the martial arts community gather in Shaolin.
Just like a torrent, hundreds of rivers return to the sea.
Although the Shaolin Temple is large, it cannot accommodate too many people.
The towns closest to Shaolin are crowded with people from the martial arts world.
There are also more and more people in the martial arts world who cannot accommodate them in cities and towns, so they can only live in the countryside, or simply use the sky as their quilt and the earth as their bed.
What most people don’t know is that with the arrival of more and more powerful forces in the martial arts world, secret discussions are going on one after another.
Most of them are these great forces of righteousness, looking for Shaolin and Wudang.
November 26th.
In the Shaolin Temple.
A few more big forces joined forces to find Shaolin and Wudang.
“Abbot Fang Zheng, Sect Master Song, I believe you also know the purpose of our arrival today.
Now that things have happened, what are Shaolin Wudang planning to do?
You have to give us the truth. "Dugu Yihe, the master of Emei Xuanzhen Temple, was the first to speak, very directly.
"Yes, please tell me clearly, what does the court mean?
Is it really necessary to cleanse all the martial arts forces? "Lin Wuhai, the leader of Changqing Temple in Qingcheng, followed with a rather tough attitude.
The rest of the people nodded in agreement.
Shaolin abbot Fang Zheng and Wudang leader Song Yuanqiao looked at each other and knew that the leaders of these people were Dugu Yihe and Lin Wuhai.
It’s not that the strength of Dugu Yihe and Lin Wuhai is really much better than the others.
But Emei and Qingcheng are qualified to ask them directly.
The Emei and Qingcheng factions are different from other martial arts forces. Emei is a holy place for Taoism and Buddhism, and Qingcheng is a holy place for Taoism. There are a large number of Taoist temples and temples in the two mountains.
Among them, some are in contact with martial arts forces and are equivalent to martial arts forces.
For example, Xuanzhen Temple and Jinding Temple in Emei.
Changqing Temple, Songfeng Temple, etc. in Qingcheng.
They all represent the Emei Sect and the Qingcheng Sect, and can act in the name of both factions.
There are also many people who have no contact with martial arts.
But there are countless Taoist and Buddhist masters hidden among them.
The biggest reason why Emei can become one of the eight sects is this.
For example, Dugu Yihe's Xuanzhen Temple and the extinct Jinding Temple are not strong enough to be included in one of the eight sects.
But together they and other temples in Emei are enough to become the second largest among the eight major sects, second only to Shaolin and Wudang.
Actually, like Emei and Qingcheng, there is Wudang.
Wudang is a Taoist holy land with many Taoist temples belonging to different Taoist lineages.
It’s just that Zhang Sanfeng came out of Wudang and convinced everyone, making those people willing to take Zhang Sanfeng as their teacher and leader.
So Zhang Sanfeng has completely become the representative of Wudang.
It was Zhang Sanfeng who integrated all the branches of Wudang that allowed him to compete with Shaolin in terms of master level and influence in the world.
Otherwise, Shaolin’s many years of experience would not be easy to catch up with.
"Amitabha." Fang Zhengdao said the Buddha's name and said solemnly: "Master Lin's words are serious, why did the court ever want to cleanse the martial arts forces?
Up to now, has the court wronged anyone?
The people they deal with are all martial arts scoundrels who harm the people."
Lin Wuhai raised his eyebrows and his heart became heavier. He did not expect that Fang Zheng would defend the court so directly.
He pondered for a moment and said in a concentrated voice: "What the abbot said was that it was a slip of the tongue.
But who knows whether any of them are unjust?
Moreover, with this current situation, people in the martial arts world are in panic, and all the sects and sects are panicking. Should we just ignore it? "
"Guanzhu Lin, I wonder what you want?
If you have any ideas, just say so. "Song Yuanqiao said calmly.
"I am a soft-spoken person and dare not have any ideas. In the end, it still depends on the wishes of the imperial court and Shaolin Wudang.
What else to do next? "Lin Wuhai shook his head and said solemnly.
"To be honest with Master Lin and everyone else, the imperial court's intention is very simple. It wants to hear the opinions of the various sects of the righteous path of martial arts. "Song Yuanqiao said seriously.
Dugu Yihe and Lin Wuhai looked at each other and frowned secretly.
The meaning of this is not simple.
For Shaolin , Wudang, they united and dared to raise opinions
Because Shaolin and Wudang are part of them, they won't do anything too harshly.
But who really dares to directly put forward specific opinions to the imperial court?
Those dozen or so great masters are still being imprisoned.
"The abbot, the leader of the Song Dynasty, Shaolin Wudang is the leader of the righteous path of our Ming martial arts world.
I wonder what the two factions think?
If it makes sense, we will definitely obey it. "Dugu Yihe said solemnly.
"Not bad. "Lin Wuhai and the others nodded.
"Amitabha. Fang Zheng said calmly: "Shaolin Wudang has communicated many times and believes that the imperial court has taken several actions. Although the movement was too large, some innocent people were inevitably hurt."
But everything he does is for the country and the people, and those he removes are all scoundrels in the martial arts world.
So, Shaolin Wudang decided to remind the court to act less aggressively in the future and try to avoid hurting innocent people and wrongfully accusing good people.
For this reason, we, Wulin Zhengdao, can actively cooperate. "
"Exactly. "Song Yuanqiao nodded.
Dugu Yihe and others frowned even more, feeling that something was wrong.
These words clearly stand on the side of the imperial court.
This is different from The speaking style of Shaolin and Wudang in the past is completely different
He expressed his attitude too quickly. From the beginning, he clearly sided with the imperial court and did not give them any other chance.
Aren’t you afraid of really angering all the righteous forces in the martial arts world?
What exactly is Shaolin Wudang thinking?
Is it possible that you have devoted yourself to the imperial court and ignored the right path?
It shouldn’t be possible.
You must know that the various forces of the righteous path are also the confidence of Shaolin Wudang to face the court.
They are in the same group.
I can’t figure it out, but in the face of Fang Zheng and Song Yuanqiao’s clear stance, Dugu Yihe and others did not dare to press, but retreated.
After talking nonsense for a while, the few people left with increasingly heavy hearts.
Sending several people off, Fang Zheng and Song Yuanqiao both sighed again.
This is how many people they have sent away and sighed in the past few days.
But there is nothing they can do.
"At this time, I am afraid that all parties involved in the righteous path know our statement, and the resentment in their hearts will inevitably increase further.
In this case, is there really no problem?" Song Yuanqiao thought for a while , still couldn't help but worry.
“It is a last resort to cut the knot with a sharp knife.
Patriarch Wuji is right. If we don't express our stance like this, all parties will only put forward more conditions and force us to negotiate with the court.
Your Majesty will not give in.
When the time comes, the consequences will be even more unpredictable. ”
(Chapter 2, I have something to do today, Chapter 3 will be added tomorrow.)
