Chapter 175, Canghai Mingmu plus Kun’s attack and killing
"It seems it took more than a day or two for them to find me."
Shi Huolong shook his head for a while.
"They should know about my injuries."
"It will take at most three days for the injuries in my body to recur."
"Yes." Song Qingshu started to explain: "It should be three years."
"In the battle of Dongyue City, the Mingjiao will be victorious. Cheng Kun can't wait any longer."
Shi Huolong knew Cheng Kun's insidiousness, and he knew everything about the situation within the Beggar Clan over the years.
"sorry to bother you."
"Senior, this is embarrassing for me." Song Qingshu waved his hands repeatedly.
"I want to talk to senior about the problem of beggar gangs."
Shi Huolong looked at Song Qingshu in surprise.
He knew Song Qingshu's character. Song Qingshu was not the kind of person who liked to meddle in other people's affairs.
"what you up to."
"You want the two hidden masters of the Beggar Clan to help the Mingjiao rescue the five sects?"
"No, no." Song Qingshu laughed: "They teach themselves to solve it."
"I want to talk about Chen Youliang."
"Senior, what do you think of Chen Youliang?"
Shi Huolong thought for a moment and said, "This person... is capable."
"The ambition is not small either."
"The world is in chaos. This man can speed up the overthrow of Mongolia."
"Yes." Song Qingshu responded and continued: "I want him to lead the Beggar Gang to participate in the uprising."
Shi Huolong was silent for a moment: "Tell me what you think."
"I don't doubt this man's ability, but if the Beggar Gang gives it to him, I'm afraid something will happen."
"Once he gains power, if we kill him, there will be chaos."
"Alliance." Song Qingshu said directly.
"I gave Chen Youliang one year. He needs to rectify the Beggar Gang."
"If he can do it, or the method is not too drastic, I will let him form an alliance with Zhang Wuji."
"I will ask Mingjiao to give him military supplies."
"After that...if Chen Youliang is capable, he will attract more and more people."
Shi Huolong looked at Song Qingshu with a deep look: "Have you ever thought about the future?"
“It is an alliance now, but once it reaches a certain level, the two forces will definitely conflict.
"Perhaps, Yuanshi didn't overthrow him, and they fought first."
"I know." Song Qingshu said in a deep voice, "But this is the best way."
"There will definitely be conflicts between the Beggar Clan and the Mingjiao. This is inevitable."
"Even if Chen Youliang hadn't been there, there would have been others who would have resisted. There is already a conflict between the Mingjiao and the Beggar Clan."
"Death...cannot be avoided."
"I can come forward." Shi Huolong said solemnly.
"Once the martial arts world is unified, I will take over the Beggar Clan."
"What happens next?" Song Qingshu asked helplessly.
"Integrate into Mingjiao?"
"Will the people below agree?"
"It's unrealistic. The Mingjiao and the Beggar Clan have always had conflicts. Now it's simply impossible for them to put down all their hatred for the sake of justice."
"After the merger of the Sky Eagle Sect and the Ming Sect, there are now a lot of conflicts. My grandfather, the White-browed Eagle King, is still one of the four guardians of the Ming Sect."
"The Beggar Clan and the Ming Cult... I don't need to say more, senior, you should understand."
Hearing this, Shi Huolong let out a long sigh, and he also knew the complexity.
"I know a lot of people will die, but there's nothing we can do. Something has to be done."
"Integration is definitely not possible, but assisting the uprising is definitely possible."
"Who is coming?" Song Qingshu asked calmly: "Is there such a person in the Beggar Clan?"
"This is not a one-on-one fight, or a battle between a few people."
"This is a battle involving thousands or tens of thousands of people. It requires planning, layout, and command..."
"There is a huge gap between a mediocre person and a genius."
"There are very few such people."
"As of now, it seems that the owner of the Mingjiao Five Elements Flag can do it."
"Sky Eagle Cult, my uncle, and several other altar leaders."
"The most dazzling ones are the three people who fought in Dongyue City."
"Qi Mu, Zhu Yuanzhang, Chen Youliang."
Shi Huolong also understood this truth and felt helpless in his eyes.
"Indeed, we can fight, but we are not as good as him in commanding."
"This is also the reason why the Five Elements Flag has always had a high status in Mingjiao."
"Marching and fighting are fundamental."
Song Qingshu continued: "Since no matter what, people will die in the beginning, then it is better to let Chen Youliang take over."
"At least...many fewer people will die in future wars."
Shi Huolong thought for a moment. He thought that Chen Youliang was not the best choice. He looked at Song Qingshu and asked, "Where is Qi Mu?"
"I can let him take over the Beggar Gang."
"His martial arts talent is not low. I can make him the leader of the Beggar Clan."
"Compared to Chen Youliang, I am more optimistic about Qi Mu."
Song Qingshu felt helpless: "Senior, I'm afraid it won't work."
"Qi Mu has refused to join the Ming Cult before."
Shi Huolong knew about this and said, "Qi Mu is afraid that joining the Ming Cult will cause chaos or conflict with Zhu Yuanzhang."
"I can understand this."
"This won't happen if he takes over the Beggar Clan. With Qi Mu behind you, even if Zhang Wuji is dissatisfied, he can only endure it."
"As for the other members of the Mingjiao, both the top management of the Mingjiao and Qi Mu are familiar with them."
"I think it's good that he became the leader of the Beggar Clan."
"He doesn't want to." Song Qingshu was distressed: "Lao Qi is indeed capable, but he has no ambition at all."
"Baiwang Peak, Dongyue City, that's all because of me."
"Lao Qi is the kind of person who is content with being rich."
"If Lao Qi had wanted to compete with the world, he would have killed Zhu Yuanzhang at Baiwang Peak."
"Everyone knows in their hearts that even if Lao Qi kills Zhu Yuanzhang, even if Zhang Wuji is angry or annoyed, he will not kill Lao Qi."
"We know it, and so does Lao Qi."
"Once Zhu Yuanzhang dies, Lao Qi's status in the Mingjiao will be very high."
"But he didn't, he didn't want to get involved in these things at all."
Shi Huolong knew that what Song Qingshu said was true.
"Can't Saiki change?"
"How about some stimulation?"
"What does he like or need?"
He also knows that this kind of thing can only be done voluntarily and cannot be forced.
"I can't persuade him." Song Qingshu knew Qi Mu's character very well.
"He has been with me for so long that my skin is worn out."
"Just that virtue."
"Whether it's Baiwang Peak or Dongyue City, I'll let him take command from behind and don't charge."
"You all know the result and rush out at every turn."
Shi Huolong felt regretful for a while: "Qi Mu is a talent."
"It's a bit of a waste."
He knew very well that as long as Song Qingshu opened his mouth, Qi Mu would definitely agree.
But Song Qingshu would not do such a thing.
Song Qingshu will not force others to do anything, and many people know this.
"Then let Chen Youliang take over the Beggar Clan." Shi Huolong had no other choice now.
"I let people watch him."
He took out a waist badge and handed it to Song Qingshu.
"You take this, I won't have time then, you go and deal with it."
Song Qingshu took it directly without being polite.
"Senior, can I help you with your injury?"
Shi Huolong smiled freely: "It's an old injury. There is no hope of cure, so I can only live on."
"I come here once a year, I'm used to it."
Song Qingshu looked at Shi Huolong's smile and felt a little uncomfortable.
Even though he was injured, Shi Huolong still took action every time something happened in Zhongyuan.
"Okay, don't talk about me anymore, let's talk about you." Shi Huolong saw Song Qingshu's thoughts.
"When will you and Yang Yatou get married?"
"Since you're here, it means that Yang Yatou is already well."
"Otherwise, Youlan Zhuya is here."
"Senior, you..." Song Qingshu was a little embarrassed. He didn't expect Shi Huolong to ask this.
"It's still early, it's still early."
Shi Huolong laughed: "Why are you so early? You are not young anymore."
"When can I find a time to do it?"
"We old guys can get together too."
"Definitely, definitely." Song Qingshu responded with a smile.
At night...
Song Qingshu found a place in the cave to practice.
All he has to do now is wait for Cheng Kun to arrive.
According to Shi Huolong's speculation, Shi Huolong's injury appeared the day after tomorrow.
Outside the mountains and forests.
Cheng Kun and Canghai Mingmu came here quickly under the cover of night.
Cheng Kun led from the front, and Canghai Mingmu followed behind.
All four of them looked at Cheng Kun with strange eyes.
This Cheng Kun is really a talent. As a native of the Central Plains, he is determined to cause trouble in the Central Plains.
Destroy the martial arts world and find a way to destroy the Mingjiao.
This Cheng Kun was completely distorted by hatred. There was nothing else in Cheng Kun's world but hatred.
They also knew about Cheng Kun's feud with the Ming Cult, but the former leader Yang Dingtian had been killed by Cheng Kun, so it was logically over.
But Cheng Kun still relented and retaliated against Mingjiao.
They didn't understand how twisted Cheng Kun's heart was. It wasn't just killing Yang Dingtian, but also destroying the Ming Cult that Yang Ding cared about.
Soon after, everyone came to a mountain peak.
Below is the cave where Shi Huolong practiced.
Cheng Kun said with a wicked smile: "Shi Huolong is inside."
"He's going to have a recurrence of his injury in two days."
"As long as Shi Huolong dies, I can control the Beggar Gang."
Canghai Mingmu nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
Yuan Zhe had already told Cheng Kun about his plan when they arrived.
As soon as Shi Huolong died, Cheng Kun found someone to pretend to be Shi Huolong, and then he clashed with the Mingjiao.
Although the Beggar Clan has no masters, it has many disciples.
After Cheng Kun takes control of the Beggar Gang, Mongolian masters can disguise themselves and enter it.
At that time, as long as the Beggar Clan and the Mingjiao fight, the martial arts in the Central Plains will continue to be in chaos.
As for why they were fighting, this was not a problem for Cheng Kun.
Cheng Kun has been operating in the Central Plains for many years and has many chess pieces.
"Seniors, please rest while I go get some food." Cheng Kun bowed slightly to them and left quickly.
His posture was very low.
To him, the purpose of destroying Mingjiao Cai was nothing else.
Shi Huolong's strength is not bad, even if he is injured, it may not be easy.
Originally, he was planning to come alone, but thinking about the betrayal of Chen Youliang, he was afraid of an accident, so he decided to be careful.
To this end, he found the prince and explained his plan.
After that, the prince called these four people.
Cheng Kun knew that the four of them were quite capable.
On the way here, he deliberately speeded up for a while, wanting to try a few people.
Unexpectedly, several people could follow them easily.
At that moment, Cheng Kun knew that these four people were not simple. It would be no problem to have these four people help kill Shi Huolong.
"Good disciple, you can embarrass my master this time."
"I don't know how long you can hide."
Cheng Kun sneered while checking whether anyone was around or not.
Originally, he could kill Shi Huolong by himself without the prince's help at all.
But because of Chen Youliang, he was afraid that something would go wrong, so he had no choice but to find someone for help.
Invisibly, the help he received from the prince was much less.
An hour later.
Cheng Kun didn't find any fire, and felt relieved.
As long as no one comes, there will be no problem in killing Shi Huolong.
He picked some wild fruits and headed towards the clear sea.
The other side.
Canghai Ming Tomb and others gathered together to rest and eat dry food.
All of them knew what Cheng Kun had done before.
It was nothing more than checking to see if anyone was around, and looking for food was just a joke.
"This guy is so cautious." Bagu Mu sighed with emotion.
Along the way, Cheng Kun kept his figure hidden and extremely vigilant, carefully investigating any small problem.
What was originally half a month's journey turned into a full month.
"If he wasn't careful, he wouldn't be alive until now." Ba Gumu smiled.
"He almost killed Song Qingshu back then."
"What is Song Qingshu's status in the world now? As long as someone discovers Cheng Kun, countless people will flock to him."
Bagu Cang said, "We'll take action later so Cheng Kun can't have any problems."
"The Ming Cult is moving very frequently now. Cheng Kun's control of the Beggar Gang is very beneficial to us."
"As long as there is chaos in the martial arts world in the Central Plains, it will be impossible for the Mingjiao uprising to happen."
Others know this too.
Although there are many Mingjiao people, it is impossible to overthrow the Yuan Dynasty by relying on Mingjiao alone. More ordinary people will join.
As long as the general trend is not allowed to rise, the Mingjiao will only make a fuss and be suppressed soon.
As long as there is chaos in the martial arts world in the Central Plains, many things in Mingjiao will not be able to unfold at all.
Just like before, the various sects were staring at the Mingjiao, and the people of the Mingjiao did not dare to move at all.
As long as they are discovered by various sects, it will be a battle, and any arrangement will be delayed.
If someone dies, all arrangements will be useless.
Time passes slowly...
Canghai Mingmu has been resting in place, and Cheng Kun has been wandering outside.
Always prevent others from coming, and at the same time quietly approach Shi Huolong's cave from time to time to check.
Cheng Kun was like a wild beast at this time, always on guard.
No accidents are allowed.
One day, two days...
The third night.
Shi Huolong roared in the cave, and then a huge explosion came from the cave.
Then, it calmed down again.
Song Qingshu had been far away from where Shi Huolong was retreating. He noticed Shi Huolong's movement and hurried over.
At this time... Shi Huolong was sitting cross-legged, his brows furrowed and beads of sweat falling on his forehead.
Eyes closed.
"The internal energy is vented." Song Qingshu saw the problem at a glance.
Shi Huolong's internal energy went berserk, and the previous movement was to vent his internal energy.
It will take at least a day for Shi Huolong's injury to stabilize.
"It should be coming." Song Qingshu came to the corner of the entrance and waited calmly.
He was sure... Cheng Kun would come back.
Outside the cave.
Cheng Kun and Canghai Mingmu heard what was going on inside.
Cheng Kun laughed loudly: "Four seniors, that's it."
Canghai Mingmu looked at each other and rushed straight into the cave.
Cheng Kun was shocked when he saw the movements of several people, so fast.
But he was not slow either and quickly followed.
"Everyone, the poor monk is taking the lead." Cheng Kun laughed loudly as he approached the cave.
He rushed in directly.
He asked four people to come over, mainly because he was afraid that others would come over.
Now that he was sure there was no one else, he certainly couldn't give up the credit for killing Shi Huolong.
Hearing this, Canghai Mingmu frowned and quickly followed.
They could guess what Cheng Kun was thinking, and they were just afraid that they would take credit.
"idiot."
"hurry up."
"Problems elsewhere!"
"It's really a death wish!"
The four of them knew very well what kind of strength Shi Huolong was. Even if he was injured now, his strength would still be very high.
The top master's temporary counterattack left Cheng Kun dead or disabled.
As for the credit, that's even more of a joke.
Inside the cave.
Song Qingshu was shocked when he heard Cheng Kun's laughter.
Take the lead?
Cheng Kun is not alone.
Then, he heard Canghai Mingmu's voice, and his expression changed slightly.
He originally thought that only Cheng Kun would come, but he didn't expect that Canghai Ming Tomb would also come.
Damn it!
"This bitch is so alert."
Song Qingshu cursed secretly in his heart and was always ready to take action.
Nothing should happen to Shi Huolong.
"Ha ha……"
Cheng Kun burst into the hall laughing wildly, his figure extremely fast.
Before the figure stopped, he suddenly felt a chill behind him and someone was sneaking up on him!
Master!
Before he had time to think about it, an internal force appeared in his right hand and slapped him fiercely.
puff……
One arm was cut off directly.
"ah……"
A scream echoed in the air, and Cheng Kun's right hand that resisted the attack was cut off directly.
Blood spilled in the air...
Cheng Kun tightly covered his arms, looked at Song Qingshu with extremely resentful eyes, and roared like crazy.
"Song Qingshu!!"
"Song Qingshu!!!"
Didi...
Didi...
Blood dripped onto the ground.
Song Qingshu didn't give the old guy any time, didn't respond, and rushed over.
Six afterimages appeared directly in the sky...
The revelation of the sea is yet to come, let’s kill Cheng Kun first.
Originally, the sword just now was aimed at Cheng Kun's head. Unexpectedly, the old guy reacted so quickly and blocked it with his hand.
Cheng Kun looked at the afterimage in the sky, his eyes full of panic.
Just now when I resisted with my right hand, I had already used Gang Qi.
But even so, Song Qingshu still cut off his right arm with a sword.
How strong is Song Qingshu?
Now that he was injured, Song Qingshu couldn't resist Song Qingshu's speed.
puff……
Song Qingshu stabbed Cheng Kun in the chest with his sword again, and his inner energy exploded.
Cheng Kun was directly knocked away.
At this time, Song Qingshu noticed someone coming from behind, turned around, and shot the long sword directly at Cheng Kun.
The long sword was extremely fast and reached Cheng Kun's throat in the blink of an eye.
Cheng Kun couldn't move at all at this time. He was seriously injured by Song Qingshu's sword just now.
boom! !
An internal force came from a distance and hit the long sword directly, causing the long sword to fly away.
"Come on." Song Qingshu shouted softly, and the long sword flying in the air returned to his hand again.
Looking at the clear sea indifferently.
"It came really fast."
Canghai Mingmu's face was extremely ugly. At this time, four people were already protecting Cheng Kun.
They knew something was wrong when they heard Cheng Kun scream before.
They thought Cheng Kun could hold on for a while, but they didn't expect that when they arrived, Cheng Kun's life was hanging by a thread.
What surprised them even more was that Song Qingshu was actually here.
At this time... inside the cave.
Shi Huolong was still suppressing his injuries, but he had opened his eyes and looked indifferently at the clear sea.
Song Qingshu stood a little in front of Shi Huolong.
Canghai Mingmu stood in the corner because he wanted to protect Cheng Kun.
Didi...
Didi...
At this time, the cave was extremely quiet, with only the sound of blood dripping from Cheng Kun's right arm to the ground.
Bagu Cang looked at Song Qingshu warily, and glanced slightly at Bagu Mu who was standing aside.
Ba Gumu understood this and took a step back to check Cheng Kun's injuries.
"You know my grudge against him! Think clearly before doing anything." Song Qingshu's cold voice sounded.
He knew what Bagumu wanted to do.
Treatment?
impossible.
Cheng Kun must die here today!
"Qingshu, I can hold off two of them for one stick of incense." Shi Huolong's cold voice sounded, his eyes fixed on the bright scene in the sea.
"Can the others be killed?"
