Another person in the crowd said," Old Gang Leader Hong is naturally the leader of the heroes. Other than him, who else can convince the masses with their skills and surpass others with their virtue to take on this great responsibility?”
His voice was loud and clear. Everyone looked towards the source of the voice, but they could not see anyone.
"Who spoke?" someone asked.”
A short man jumped up and stood on the table. He was less than three feet tall and over forty years old. His face was full of vigor. Some people recognized him as the Jiangxi hero "Dwarf Lion" Lei Meng. Everyone wanted to laugh, but when they saw his fierce eyes looking around, they swallowed their laughter.
I smiled in my heart as I continued eating. I'll even pick up some vegetables for Long Er. Long 'er never eats meat, so I can't do anything about it.
He said," But Old Gang Leader Hong is unpredictable. He rarely shows his face in ten years. If he encounters a major matter of resisting the enemy and is unable to ask for instructions from him, then what?"”
The heroes all lowered their heads to think about this matter. I just continued to slowly pick up food to eat. At this moment, Long Er was already full, but she would still occasionally pick up some for me.
I heard Lei Meng say,"What we did today was all for the sake of serving our country. We have no selfish motives. When we elect a vice alliance leader, most of them will follow his orders when Alliance Leader Hong travels around.”
Amidst the applause, someone shouted,""Hero Guo Jing!"
"Sect Leader Lu is the best!" someone shouted.”
Someone shouted," The previous Sect Leader of Beggar's Sect is resourceful and is also the disciple of Old Sect Leader Hong. I recommend Sect Leader Huang."”
"It's this Manor Lord Lu," someone else said.”
Someone even called out,"Master Ma of the Quan Zhen Sect, Immortal Changchun Ziqiu."”
All of a sudden, there were different opinions. Just as Mrs. Guo said, this show was worth watching.
……
It was another bustling scene. The sound of a horn outside the gate could be heard, followed by the intermittent sound of hitting the rock.
"Welcome the distinguished guests!" Lu Guanying shouted.”
As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of people stood in front of the hall.
The heroes in the hall were originally cheering and drinking, discussing the matter of the martial arts world's vice alliance master. When they suddenly saw so many people barging into the hall, they were slightly surprised. They quieted down and stood up to look at the person who had come.
I was finally full. I put down my bowl and chopsticks and stood up with everyone. I stood beside Long Er by the wall and looked at the person through the gap between the figures.
It turned out to be another old friend, Huo Du, the culprit who caused Granny Sun's death. This time, I have to avenge Granny Sun.
Long 'er had never seen Huo Du before, but I told her that Huo Du was the one who killed Granny Sun. She wanted to go forward.
I pulled her back and told her,"Long Er, now is not the best time to take revenge. We'll talk about it later."”Long Er naturally listened to me and didn't act according to her straightforward personality.
Hmph, Huo Du!
I no longer looked at Huo Du, who looked elegant and noble, but at the person who came with him.
One of them was a Tibetan monk with a thin face. I met him once on my trip to Mount Zhongnan. I remember that he was Huo Du's senior brother Da Er Ba.
The two of them stood on both sides, and in the middle stood a Tibetan monk who was dressed in a red robe. He was extremely tall and thin, and his body was like a bamboo. His forehead was slightly sunken, like a plate. He must be Huo Du and Da Er Ba's master.
I once heard from Aunt Guo's father, Huang Yaoshi, that when the Tibetan Tantra's strange martial arts were practiced to an extremely high level, the top would slightly cave in. This person's heart sank. Was his martial arts really extremely profound?
No, from his breathing, I can feel that his internal energy is only on par with Uncle Guo. As for martial arts, I can't judge it unless he makes a move. But it's still alright. At least I'm already ahead in terms of internal energy. I haven't really used my Taiji Fist against an enemy, so I'm not afraid of the Tibetan Tantra martial arts.
At this moment, Uncle Guo, Aunt Guo, and Lu Guanying had already gone out to welcome them.
"Everyone has come from afar, so please take a seat and have a few drinks," said Guo Jing.”
He knew that the other party was a Mongolian and an enemy, but Uncle Guo still treated him with courtesy. However, both Auntie Guo and I are helpless against Uncle Guo's honest personality. As expected, Confucius had done a lot of harm. Confucius probably didn't expect his thoughts to create such restrictions! If that was the case, what was the difference between that and 'sticking to the rule'? From this, I can imagine that during the battle at Xiangyang City, even if the Mongol army retreated, the ones who suffered the most casualties would still be the Great Song soldiers. Losing great benevolence because of small benevolence! Benevolence and righteousness were fine, but the target should not be those stubborn and ungrateful people. Unfortunately, Uncle Guo did not understand and did not listen to advice.
Lu Guanying ordered Zhuang Ding to open a new table and re-arrange the cups and plates. Although the Wu brothers were not good at martial arts, they had always helped Uncle Guo and Aunt Guo with their affairs. They were quite diligent, especially Wu Xiuwen, who was quick and agile. He was a first-class shrewd and capable person. The two brothers were instructing the servants to arrange the seats in the most honorable place. On the other hand, they kept apologizing and asking the guests to move their seats.
Our seats were already against the wall, so there was no need to move them. Long Er and I sat down and watched their actions.
Unfortunately, Guo Fu, this spoiled young lady, couldn't bear to see me in peace. She gave Wu Xiuwen a look and pouted her lips at me.
Wu Xiuwen understood and walked in front of me. He said helplessly,"Brother Yang, can you please move your seat?”
"Alright, you move! However, you're already leaning against the wall. Where else are you going?”I didn't get up. Instead, I smiled at Wu Xiuwen and Guo Fu.
Lu Wushuang and Cheng Ying also smiled as they watched. Long 'er maintained her cold personality from a young age and did not show any emotions when it came to such matters.
Wu Xiuwen looked at Guo Fu helplessly. Guo Fu humphed and ignored him. Wu Xiuwen was able to escape and continued to work.
I shook my head and continued to look at the situation.
"Master," Huo Du said to the tall and thin Tibetan monk,"I would like to introduce you to two famous heroes of the Central Plains." This is the Great Hero Guo Jing, who was once the Marshal of the Right Army of the Western Expedition of Mongolia. This was Mrs. Guo, who was also the leader of Beggar's Sect, Huang Rong.”
When the Tibetan monk heard the words " Marshal of the Right Army of the Western Expedition of the Mongol Empire ", he opened his eyes wide, and a bright light shot out from them. He looked at Guo Jing's face for a moment before closing his eyes again. He did not seem to care about the leader of the Beggar's Sect. He really knew how to put on an act!
" This is my master, the Holy Monk of Tibet," Prince Huo Du said in a clear voice." Everyone calls him Jinlun Guoshi. The current Queen of Great Mongolia has conferred him the title of the First Protector.”These words were spoken so loudly that all the heroes in the hall heard them clearly.
"Everyone, please drink a few more cups since you've come from afar," said Uncle Guo indifferently.”
Although Mr. Guo's attitude towards them was already cold, it was still ironic! Tonight's Banquet of Heroes was to discuss the matter of resisting the Mongolians, but the person in charge allowed the enemy to stir up trouble here. Uncle Guo, oh Uncle Guo, I really don't know what to say about you. It's fine, it's fine. Your mess should always be cleaned up by Mrs. Guo. Why should I trouble myself?
