The Record of Righteousness

Two old men were seen standing on the hillside of Mount Tai, which was more than a hundred acres.

There were also some giant rocks and green pines, and a white jade road passed through it and went straight into the sky.

The two looked down and watched the outer disciples practicing martial arts at the foot of the mountain.

Their uniform and majestic slogans broke through the clouds and spread into the mountainside.

One of them was tall and thin, but his hair was a mixture of gray, white and black.

This man had thick eyebrows and big eyes, a long face and dark skin.

Between his eyebrows, a pair of sword-like eyebrows slightly raised, revealing his former sharpness and tenacity.

He was wearing a wide black robe with gold threads, and on the back of the robe was a picture of Mount Tai in the sky with white and gold threads.

He had a green jade belt around his waist, and the purple gold crown on his head was inlaid with a flawless white jade, which contained all the dry hair.

The dry hair on the back of his head fell on his shoulders, like a trace of time, and the gray hair was casually draped behind his neck, revealing a hint of unruliness.

Even though the years have passed, the deep eyes still reveal a hint of sharpness, as if ready to capture the subtle changes of all things in the world at any time.

This person is the head of the Taishan School, Heba Yue!

His appearance is not as strong and majestic as his name suggests.

On the contrary, he is a tall and thin, sharp and capable old man.

Heba Yue raised his dry and slender fingers and pointed lightly at the martial arts field at the foot of the mountain in the distance where there were densely packed figures.

"Brother Ouyang, look at the number of outer disciples I have accepted in the past few months. There are more than 2,000 people. Add the number I accepted this month, and there are about 3,000 people."

"How can our Taishan disciples compare to your sect?"

Ouyang Shaoling did not care much about Heba Yue's complacency. He stroked his beard and smiled:

"Hehe, brother He, I just watched from the bottom of the mountain and found that your outer disciples look strong and healthy, but if you look closely, they are actually unstable, heavy on the outside and empty on the inside, which is a taboo in martial arts practice."

"But your sect is rich and powerful, and I admire you."

"But you outer disciples need to be detailed. Although there are few disciples in my Tianshan Sword Sect, ”

Before Ouyang Shaoling finished speaking, Heba Yue rolled his eyes and recited:

"But all of your disciples are from the Ouyang clan, and have inherited the martial arts of your Tianshan. How can ordinary warriors like us compare?"

"Brother Ouyang, you and I have known each other for more than 40 years, and your self-praising rhetoric is not too old-fashioned."

"You, an old man, understand my thoughts."

Ouyang Shaoling smiled and asked seriously:

"May I ask you, brother, what do you want to do by accepting so many outer disciples?"

The sun shone on the old man's vicissitudes of life, and the years carved deep wrinkles on his face.

Heba Yue stared at the setting sun, and after a moment of silence, a barely perceptible smile appeared on his lips, and he said:

"Rebellion!"

Ouyang Shaoling was silent for a moment, then laughed:

"Okay!"

"Brother, you are really good at joking."

The afterglow of the setting sun fell like flowing gold, dyeing the sky orange-red.

The scenery in the mountains became softer in this changing light and shadow.

The martial arts hall in the distance was like a lit flame, with dots and clusters, emitting a warm breath.

The two of them admired the beautiful scenery of the setting sun halfway up the mountain.

"Brother Ouyang, the current situation in the world."

"In the north, the Jin people are rising in Liaodong and have successively occupied several prefectures. In the south, the Miao people are taking the opportunity to rebel. There are also Japanese pirates along the coast who are burning, killing, raping and looting. There is a White Lotus Sect in Shandong."

"In my opinion, the fate of Mingting is over. It only needs a spark to set the prairie on fire."

"As the saying goes, the emperor takes turns, and this year it's my turn."

"I am now over seventy-six years old, and it's time for me to be the common ruler of the world and satisfy my addiction to being an emperor."

"Now that the world is in chaos, I hope Brother Ouyang will make a perfect plan so that you can stay wise and clear in troubled times."

Ouyang Shaoling lowered his eyebrows and thought for a long time, sighing twice.

"Old He, you are lucky to say this to me. If you tell it to a third person, I am afraid someone will really accuse you of treason."

"The fate of the Great Ming Dynasty is determined by heaven. It is best for us to do our own duties well."

"Brother He, it is better not to make such jokes."

Ouyang Shaoling sighed and shook his head.

"I led my two disciples from Tianshan Mountain to Shandong after three or four months."

"I just wanted to open a branch according to the order of the headmaster. Southerners are good at business, but few of them like to practice martial arts after they have money."

"The folk customs in Lu are simple and there are many people. If there were no natural disasters and man-made disasters in succession, we in Tianshan Mountain would have set up a branch here long ago."

"Even if Lu has suffered many disasters, I plan to find some suitable seedlings for martial arts and bring them back, and also take my two unpromising disciples to see the world."

Heba Yue smiled, and seeing that Ouyang Shaoling had been avoiding the world's problems, he stopped joking with Ouyang Shaoling.

Asked:

"Why do you want to find some good seedlings to take back? Doesn't your Tianshan Sword Sect only accept Ouyang disciples?"

Ouyang Shaoling smiled bitterly and shook his head, waving his hand and said:

"It's really hard to describe the young people of the Ouyang family in our sword sect."

"Even my two unpromising disciples are considered generals among dwarfs."

"Nowadays, picking some qualified kids from all over the country to be accepted as outer disciples can also be regarded as continuing the incense of our Tianshan."

Heba Yue shook his head and said:

"Brother Ouyang, you are talking too much."

"I just saw your two disciples' wisdom and talents at the foot of the mountain. They are both good seedlings."
