Zongwu: Whether the martial arts world is in chaos or not, I, Qiao Feng, have the final say

"The mysterious man must be very powerful, otherwise he wouldn't have sent out invitations to heroes to so many sects."

"Yes, I heard that it was even sent to the Western Regions and overseas. Of course, all the major sects in the Central Plains also received the hero invitation."

"I just don't know how many masters will go to Shaolin Temple."

"Have you heard that Ye Erniang, one of the four evil men, was killed?"

"I heard that too. He was killed by Yan Nantian. Ye Erniang was caught stealing a child by Yan Daxia."

"Ye Erniang deserves to die. If there were more heroes like Yan Nantian, the martial arts world would be safer."

In a small town called Qixia Town, in an inn called Tongfu Inn,

Qiao Feng listened to the conversations of the people around him without any expression on his face.

""Sir, the dishes you ordered are here."

A waiter in a coarse white shirt brought the dishes and wine with brisk steps as he called out.

Qiao Feng glanced at the waiter and said,"Thank you very much. I wonder if anything big has happened in the Qixia Town recently?"

The waiter was stunned for a moment and said,"It seems not."

Qiao Feng took out a tael of silver and threw it to him,"Really?"

"Um...it seems a bit"

"The waiter thought for a moment and said

,"First of all, there are more martial artists in Qixia Town, and secondly, it seems that some masters from the Demon Sect have appeared here."

"What expert?"

The waiter looked around and whispered in Qiao Feng's ear,"It's the Yinkui Sect witch, Kankan. She's very pretty, but unfortunately she's a witch. Big brother, don't get too close to her. Your life is at stake."

Qiao Feng raised his eyebrows and said,"Oh? Anything else?""

"When a witch comes out, of course the saint will not be left behind. I heard that the saint Shi Feixuan of Cihang Jingzhai has also come out to travel the world. I'm sure both of them are masters. It's a pity that we can only feast our eyes on them."

After hearing him talk so much, Qiao Feng couldn't help but whisper,"How can a thief saint be so timid?"

"Ah... I dare not say anything. I don't know whether he is a thief or not."

Bai Zhantang was startled and stared at Qiao Feng again and again.

Qiao Feng smiled and said,"If you don't know him, then don't know him. Let's talk about the Shaolin Martial Arts Conference on August 8th. There should be many martial artists passing by this Qixia Town. You should have heard some things."

"This... Sir, how dare we in this small shop……"

Seeing Qiao Feng's gaze, Bai Zhantang quickly changed the subject.

"But...I did hear some rumors"

""Qiao Feng said

"The mysterious person who sent the heroic invitation may be a former powerful person who has reborn and wants to unify the martial arts world and sit on the throne of the leader of the martial arts world."

"Continue talking."

Bai Zhantang looked around and whispered,"The other party directly picked Shaolin Temple. This is a challenge to the authority of Shaolin Temple. However, there have been few real top masters in Shaolin Temple in recent years. Everyone in the martial arts world is very excited this time, because there has not been such a grand event in the martial arts world for a long time."

Qiao Feng said,"It's not far from Shaolin Temple. Why don't you go and have a look?"

Bai Zhantang shook his head like a rattle."The shopkeeper won't let me leave the store, and even if I have time, how dare I go? Isn't that looking for death? There are heroes going, and there are villains going. If I meet a big villain halfway, I will be finished."

Qiao Feng looked at his solemn expression and couldn't help laughing.

But the matter of Xiao Yuanshan made him ponder for a long time, and he couldn't come to a conclusion.

"That's all? Nothing else unusual?" Qiao Feng asked.

Bai Zhantang hesitated for a while and whispered,"There's one more thing. The night before yesterday, a group of men in black came and arrested a few people. They didn't enter the town or stay, but went northwest."

Qiao Feng frowned,"Northwest? Beyond that is the Gobi Desert. What are they going there for? Are they going to arrest people?"

"How would I know? It was the middle of the night, and they were all very skilled in martial arts. I didn't dare to mess with them."

Qiao Feng asked,"How did you find out in the middle of the night?"

Bai Zhantang laughed awkwardly,"My hands were itching, so I was strolling around the roof in the middle of the night.

" Qiao Feng smiled at him and said,"Okay, then you go and do your work, waiter."

Bai Zhantang put the silver away, smiled foolishly and left quickly.

Qiao Feng quietly paid attention to his surroundings.

There are more martial artists in Qixia Town than in Luoyang. I don't know if it's because of the recent martial arts conference or the special nature of Qixia Town.

Bai Zhantang is quite good at pretending. He is in the early stage of the Grandmaster, but his lightness skill level is probably that of a peak Grandmaster.

That night, Qiao Feng stayed at Tongfu Inn.

At night, Qiao Feng also learned from Bai Zhantang to stroll around the roof.

A dark shadow appeared on the roof opposite, which made Qiao Feng raise his eyebrows.

""Do you feel itchy every night?"

Qiao Feng asked.

The shadow on the rooftop opposite stumbled and almost fell off.

""Sir, why are you on the rooftop in the middle of the night?"

The masked man in black jumped over and whispered. It was Bai Zhantang.

""You two are so interested, why don't you include me?"

At this time, another voice suddenly sounded.

Bai Zhantang froze. After deciding to retire, he didn't want to have anything to do with the martial artists.

Qiao Feng looked at the man who also jumped up with Qinggong in surprise.

He asked in surprise:"Four eyebrows, Lu Xiaofeng?"

Because Lu Xiaofeng was obviously a master in the apricot forest, and now he is a grand master. His Qinggong is even more terrifying than his level, unfathomable.

""Master Qiao, it's been a long time since we last met." Lu Xiaofeng smiled and bowed.

Bai Zhantang was completely stunned.

"Lu Xiaofeng? Qiao, Qiao Feng, the hero?" he asked in a trembling voice.

"That's right, who is this?" Lu Xiaofeng looked at Bai Zhantang curiously.

"Nobody, nobody, haha, I won't disturb you two from enjoying the moon.

Qiao Feng looked up at the sky, which was overcast tonight.

Bai Zhantang wanted to slip away, but Qiao Feng grabbed his arm and he couldn't get away for a while.

"Ouch, Mr. Qiao, be gentle, I won't run away."

Qiao Feng said:"Tell me what are the characteristics of the group of people you met."

He ignored Lu Xiaofeng. Anyway, it's good that they are not bad people. Since the other party threatens him like this, it is reasonable for him to drag a few people into the water.

Lu Xiaofeng showed an interested expression and said nothing.

Bai Zhantang said:"There are nine people in total, three of them are being dragged, they are all tied up, it's so miserable, these nine people seem to be one breath, even if they are riding horses, they are related to each other. Apart from these, there is nothing strange."

Qiao Feng looked at Lu Xiaofeng:"I have heard that Lu Xiaofeng is extremely smart and knowledgeable. Do you have any clues about these nine people? Qiao is willing to pay a certain amount of compensation."

He believed that Lu Xiaofeng would not come out to meddle in his affairs for no reason.

Especially when he found that Lu Xiaofeng's current martial arts strength was not weaker than his own, he was more convinced.

"To be honest with you, Mr. Qiao, I came here to track down this matter.

"Three days ago, Ouyang Ke, who fought with you, disappeared, and Ouyang Feng is looking for him everywhere.

"A friend of mine, Sikong Zhaixing, also disappeared the day before yesterday. After investigating for several days, I found that the way they disappeared was somewhat similar.

"Wherever they disappeared, they left a note. Master Qiao, are you concerned about this matter for the people around you?"

Qiao Feng's expression became serious.

"Even Sikong Zhaixing was arrested?"

Bai Zhantang was even more shocked:"Sikong Zhaixing, the king of thieves? He has unparalleled lightness skills. How could he be arrested?……"

Lu Xiaofeng nodded:"That's right, even he was caught by mistake, which shows how strong the opponent is. And the opponent asked me to provoke Ximen Chuxue to compete with Xie Xiaofeng in swordsmanship, as if the opponent knew Ximen Chuxue's swordsmanship skills.

"You know, Ximen Chuxue has no reputation at all except for his actions when he was young and his contemplation of swordsmanship in recent years."

Qiao Feng couldn't help thinking, if Ximen Chuxue is really like what Lu Xiaofeng said, he is probably at least a grandmaster now. But the other party knows Ximen Chuxue's background, this intelligence ability is too terrifying.
