All his disciples knew about Wei Hong's affairs. Although he didn't tell them all, after so many years, these disciples were no longer children, and those who didn't know should know by now.
This little apprentice in name didn't actually get much guidance from Ye Wen, and he didn't have much contact with this little apprentice, but judging from Zhou Zhiruo's words, the connection between Wei Hong and the Shushan faction is quite close. Otherwise, Zhou Zhiruo would definitely not say what she said earlier.
"I just remembered this as a teacher. How is Mu Yan now?"
Liu Muyan was at the top of the imperial court, and it was said that he had a high position and authority, and was highly valued by Wei Hong, but he believed that these four disciples would surely have disasters in the future, but he didn't know if they had responded now.
Seeing everyone's expressions, Ye Wen had an idea in his mind: "I probably guessed it right!"
Sure enough, Nangong Huang's subsequent words let Ye Wen know the situation of his fourth disciple. It turns out that Liu Muyan has become the target of public criticism since he became more and more powerful in the court, but all his foundations are in the emperor Wei Hong. When his own existence threatened the emperor, his demise became inevitable.
"The younger brother didn't kill them all, he just let go of Senior Brother Liu's official position and let him go back to his hometown to retire, and when the officials wanted to kill Brother Liu, it was the younger brother who rescued him... It's just that Senior Brother Liu was deeply affected by it at the time." As a result, after returning home, he became ill and died a few months later!"
Nangong Huang's words made Ye Wen feel a little better. Although he also knew that the affairs above the court were not that simple, and he would not show mercy just because of the friendship between seniors and brothers, he still felt somewhat resentful towards Wei Hong! If it weren't for Nangong Huang's words that followed, Ye Wen would probably have troubled Wei Hong later.
"So that's the case...then are there any descendants in Mu Yan's family?"
"After Senior Brother Liu lost power, most of his family members dispersed, and the only ones who accompanied him back home were his wife and a concubine! When Senior Brother Liu passed away, the two wives lost their wealth and disappeared!" Nangong Huang was also helpless. Back then, he specially sent his disciples to bring Liu Muyan's family back to Mount Shu, but unfortunately he was a step too late.
As for why Liu Muyan didn't return to Shushan when he lost power, Guo Jing said that Liu Muyan only felt that he killed the third and sixth senior brothers, and also injured his disciple and Nangong Junior Brother, so he had no face to return to Shushan!
Hearing this, Ye Wen sighed again. Since he came back here, he has sighed more times than he has spoken, but what he has heard and seen today, how can he not let out a long sigh?
"In just a few decades, people and things have changed a lot!" Ye Wen then asked about other situations. Originally, all the disciples thought that their master was going to ask about the situation in the Jianghu, but they didn't expect Ye Wen to answer those questions. I didn't dare to be interested at all, I just asked about some acquaintances.
"Li Xuan is no longer in charge of the Tianshan School, but Senior Li is still reborn, but he will no longer interfere with the sect's affairs, and enjoy his old age in peace!"
"Would that guy be willing to live the rest of his life so mediocrely?" Ye Wen was very suspicious when he heard this. It seemed absolutely impossible for the domineering Li Xuan in his impression to do such a thing.
But after careful calculation, Li Xuan was in his prime when he left, so of course he was full of domineering spirit.
But now? Fifty years have passed, and Li Xuan is nearly a hundred years old. Any ambitions have been wiped out long ago, right?
What's more, he wanted to shatter the void with all his heart, but he didn't expect that Shushan faction's side was shattered one after another, while his side didn't move at all. It's impossible to say that he wasn't discouraged at all.
Coupled with the age at which half of his body has been buried in the ground, he probably can see everything. Just because he can put down the Tianshan faction, he can know a thing or two.
"Tiandao Sect and Zen Sect have now recovered most of their vitality, and they have started to walk around the rivers and lakes again. At the same time, Tiandao Sect has gradually resumed contacts with the court. Fortunately, Master and Tiandao Sect had a lot of friendship back then, so the relationship between our two sects They get along pretty well!"
Ye Wen just listened to these things, and didn't ask in detail, but asked curiously: "Where's the Yudong faction?"
Nangong Huang sighed: "The Yudong Sect has already been destroyed, and the last heir also defected to our Shushan Sect with his teacher's letter two years ago, please take him in!"
Ye Wen was stunned for a moment and didn't say anything else. The topic changed back and forth, and finally turned to the court: "Your junior brother, have you been in close contact with you all these years?"
This question had to be answered by Zhou Zhiruo, although both Guo Jing and Nan Gonghuang knew that the younger brother was the current emperor, but Ye Wen had said earlier that this matter could not be publicized, and it was enough for the masters of the Shushan School to know.
Zhou Zhiruo said: "In the early years, we were relatively close, but in the past two years, my junior brother has grown older, and I have become inseparable in handling state affairs, so..."
Ye Wen frowned: "What? After sitting for so many years, I haven't sat enough for that seat? Forget it, I will go talk to him in person in a few days!"
Originally, Ye Wen didn't plan to go to Wei Hong, because at first he thought that Wei Hong was involved in something, but now he changed his mind, because from the way Wei Hong treated Liu Muyan's family, he felt that Yue Ning's matter There should be another secret - although it is said that Baijianmen has a court background, it must be carefully said that the court is not equal to the emperor.
By the way, he also asked Wei Hong if he was willing to give up his wealth and go with him. If he was willing, he didn't mind bringing one more person with him!
Immediately afterwards, Ye Wen asked some other things, and learned that Li Sen, Xu Xian's big disciple, had passed away a long time ago, but Li Sen had devoted his life to the Shushan faction, and he even opened it when he was old. From the cold pool, he comprehended a palm technique and created a set of ice cotton palms, which left a strong mark in the classics of the Shushan School.
At the same time, Ye Wen also knew that after the birth of the Frozen Palm, Shushan faction also produced a traitor to cause disaster, relying on this Frozen Palm and the Treading Snow Wuhen passed down by Xu Xian's lineage.
In addition, it happened that Yue Ning had just died, Zhou Zhiruo couldn't get away, Guo Jing also happened to be at the most embarrassing moment of retreat, forcing Nangong Huang to go down the mountain with injuries, and get rid of the traitor, so that people in the world know: He Nangong Huang is still alive. If he is not dead, even if he is injured, it cannot be underestimated.
After waving their hands, everyone dispersed, but when Zhou Zhiruo was about to go out, Ye Wen called out: "The old man from Houshan... is he still there?"
Zhou Zhiruo was taken aback for a moment, and immediately understood who Master was talking about: "Yes!"
I don't want to change Ye Wen to be there in a daze this time: "Is she still there? Didn't she leave?"
"I haven't been to Shushan for decades..." Zhou Zhiruo didn't know the specifics, but she was extremely grateful for the fact that the senior refused to leave for decades and kept protecting the biggest secret of his Shushan faction. .
To say that in the past few decades, there are many masters who have come to the Shushan School to play wild. If it weren't for the support of that senior, I am afraid that the secret of the Shushan School would have been publicized long ago.
Thinking of this, Zhou Zhiruo suddenly said: "Master, besides that senior, there is also another person in Shishui Pavilion that maybe you want to meet too."
Ye Wen was taken aback, but couldn't guess who this person was. As for the Huan Shi Shui Pavilion, it was a place similar to the Shaolin Sutra Pavilion that Ye Wen wanted to build back then, and it was specially used to store secret books of our sect.
It's just that I didn't have so much free time at the beginning, I just mentioned a few words casually, but I didn't expect that my group of disciples would really build up the water pavilion.
Walking out of the main hall, Ye Wen thought he was going straight to the back mountain, but after thinking about Zhou Zhiruo's words, he turned straight to the Huanshui Pavilion.
In fact, there are many places on Shushan Mountain and it is extremely wide. When Ye Wen left, the Shushan School did not use all of these places. Now they have opened up many places and built more buildings.
The Huanshi Water Pavilion is a newly opened, man-made lake, and a winding stone bridge connects the only building in the lake, an attic built on the water - Huanshi Pavilion!
"Outside is the Huanshi Water Pavilion, and in the back mountain is the Langhuan Jade Cave! It's almost becoming the Murong family..."
There were disciples watching the night near the water pavilion, but at this time Ye Wenxing came, and no one dared to stop them - they knew this master. In the main hall today, all the disciples of the Shushan School were present. Who would dare to forget their own master? look?
They all bowed and saluted, and then opened the door without waiting for Ye Wen to ask questions. Only then did Ye Wen notice that the Shi Shui Pavilion was not locked.
"This...does it mean that our Shushan Paiyi masters are bold and not afraid of being stolen! Or is it that a group of guys have no sense of security?"
Shaking his head and striding in, Ye Wen noticed that there are rows of bookshelves inside, and there are many books on them, every book.
Next to each bookshelf, there will be labels similar to catalogs, such as: fist palm, sword technique, knife technique, internal strength and so on.
In fact, there are definitely not so many martial arts secret books of the Shushan School to such an exaggerated level. It is just that there are a lot of Taoism and various miscellaneous studies mixed in, which makes the rows of bookshelves full. He got some books randomly to fill up the facade first, and in the future, if he has more martial arts, the disciples can move these things out, after all, the library also needs to store many books.
Unexpectedly, his group of disciples would not dare to touch his decorations, how they were arranged in the past, and how they are still arranged now. If there is no place to put them, they would rather add bookshelves or expand the attic than clear out the books he put on.
After touching his nose, Ye Wen felt very proud! But then he turned his gaze to a figure that had just appeared, and then looked at the man holding a broom in his hand and kept scratching the ground, cursing in his heart: "Which grandson is pretending to be a sweeping monk with me here?"
He also had a mirror in his heart, this person must be the person Zhou Zhiruo said had been secretly protecting the Shushan faction, and it is estimated that Shi Shui Pavilion is so undefended, it is also related to this person.
After just a general observation, Ye Wen was surprised to find that this man's kung fu is not weak, and his internal strength is not inferior to that of Zhou Zhiruo and Guo Jing.
"How long have you been here?"
At this time, the figure also noticed Ye Wen, and turned around, revealing a wrinkled, extremely old face, with a lot of dust on the snow-white hair and beard, which was probably rubbed off during cleaning. At that time, he bent down to salute with him.
"It's been forty years since I returned to the head of the sect..."
Ye Wen did the math, forty years, that is, ten years after he was broken, he was responsible for cleaning the place: "What's your name?"
"Zhang Gui..."
Ye Wen was shocked, he didn't expect this old man who was out of shape to be an acquaintance: "It's you?"
Taking a closer look at Zhang Gui, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his heart, and he laughed: "It seems that you are also a blessed person, and that picture must have been found and practiced by you!"
Zhang Gui only learned a set of Quanxin method with Ye Xuexue back then. Although the whole heart method is not bad if you practice it persistently, it is definitely not so high, and Zhang Gui's whole body strength is not concealed—— Wen couldn't hide it in his eyes, so after looking at it for a while, he thought of the key point.
That is a picture of the formula of longevity that I mixed in these books back then. Only that Taoist technique can make Zhang Gui practice to the state he is now.
"What about the picture?"
Zhang Guidao: "Ever since I discovered that the picture contained a profound technique, I told Elder Zhou about it. Now the picture has been properly stored and kept on the upper floor!" Elder Zhou is Zhou Zhiruo, although Zhou Zhiruo did The matter of being the head of the sect, but in name it is still just the elder of the school.
Ye Wen nodded, and looked around, only to notice that the first floor is all about superficial skills, and the advanced skills are presumably put on it.
Thinking of upstairs, Ye Wen suddenly asked curiously: "Who is upstairs?" Since he came in, he found two people in this building, one of them was Zhang Gui, his breathing was steady and silent, and his steps were extremely calm. Almost in the top few in this world.
The other one is a bit strange, breathing fast and slow, heavy and light, it feels like he has suffered an internal injury, but his footsteps are so light that it is almost undetectable. If it weren't for Ye Wen's strength, it would be too much for these people. Abnormal, I'm afraid no one will notice that there is another person in this building.
This made Ye Wen very strange. It's not that he has no masters in Shushan faction, but he is not on the bright side!
As soon as the person upstairs was mentioned, Zhang Gui had a bitter expression on his face: "That book was read by Elder Zhou when I was old, and a young man sent to help me, just accidentally found a book, because it was from the Daoist Library. I found it out, and I didn’t write it as my school’s martial arts, so I just took it as some ordinary Qi training method, I didn’t expect something went wrong after practicing it..."
"Elder Zhou, Elder Nangong, and Elder Guo couldn't figure out what the problem was. They just thought that his kung fu practice was quite strange. I speculated that maybe the formulas in the book were incomplete, so it was like this!"
Ye Wen was taken aback for a moment, and then remembered that what he intentionally included in Dao Zang was not only the formula of longevity in that picture, but also the Heavenly Demon Kung Fu.
It is not surprising if it is Heavenly Demon Kung Fu. The Demon Kung Fu was extremely difficult to practice that day, but the Lightness Kung Fu will become extremely high after practice. It is estimated that this unlucky child has gone astray in his practice, so he has such strange symptoms.
With a wave of his hand, he said to Zhang Gui, "Take me up there to have a look!" Then he went upstairs with Zhang Gui, and at a glance, he saw a delicate and pretty face covered in cold sweat, lying on the bed. He gritted his teeth and dared not make a sound, as if he was enduring great pain.
Seeing this, Ye Wen immediately pointed his finger, and the congenital purple energy rushed out. He wanted to stabilize the true energy in his body first, and then a purple lotus shot out and placed it on the dantian of his lower abdomen, and then he stretched out his hand to feel the pulse.
"Ok?"
After probing, he found that the zhenqi was very strange. Ye Wen took a look, and finally took a look at the young man's chin. After looking at it for a long time, he was shocked and said: "Is this a boy?"
Zhang Gui didn't understand why Ye Wen was so surprised, he just thought he was surprised by the child's appearance and said: "Lingzhu is indeed a boy, but his appearance has become more and more delicate in the past two years, and his Adam's apple has become smaller and smaller ..."
Ye Wen wiped off his cold sweat, he finally understood what went wrong!
When he probed just now, he found that the spirit bamboo's Heavenly Demon True Qi was in a mess, but there was no slight error in its execution method, which made him very surprised.
I didn't expect the root cause to be here. The feeling is that a man has practiced kung fu that only a woman can practice. It's no wonder that nothing happens!
"How did this kid learn the magic skills that day?"
This question baffled him, and he could only say in the end: "I don't know if it's your luck or bad luck!" Then he turned his head and asked Zhang Gui: "Apart from Adam's apple and appearance, is there any other change?"
Zhang Gui shook his head, expressing that he did not understand! Ye Wen had no choice but to ask bluntly: "I'm asking him if his body has feminine features?" But he cursed inwardly: "Could it be that a man who has practiced the Heavenly Demon Kungfu has the same effect as the Phoenix Nirvana Kungfu?"
But then I heard Zhang Gui reply: "Except for the small Adam's apple, there is no other abnormal phenomenon..."
Ye Wen looked again, because of the suppression of his true qi, Lingzhu, who had calmed down in his body, had already fallen into a deep sleep, but he still had no idea how to solve this kid's trouble. I had no choice but to put this matter aside first, and after talking to Zhang Gui for a few words, I returned to Shi Shui Pavilion when I got out.
As he was walking towards the back mountain, Ye Wen thought about it: "If it doesn't work, let's abolish kung fu!" Anyway, he has a lot of skills in the Shushan school, so it is not impossible to find a suitable one! That Spirit Bamboo can practice Heavenly Demon Kungfu with a male body, it can be regarded as a generation of wizards, it can't be wasted!
While muttering, Ye Wen saw that steep mountain wall again after many years. It's just that for him now, it's no different from a step of an ordinary staircase. With a slight lift of his leg, he is already standing on the cliff in the next second.
Walking through the narrow and winding path, Ye Wen once again saw the beautiful scenery of Juegu, which is like spring all the year round, but it is quite different from that of the past. When he entered Degu, the first thing he saw was an exquisite wooden house. On the big tree in front of the house, a swing made of vines and wooden boards was shaking gently at this moment.
A woman in a long pink dress was sitting on the swing with her legs slightly curled up. When she saw Ye Wen coming in, she showed a smile that made all flowers look pale: "Are you here?"
