The Ninth Summit of the Nine Kings

  After several mountain masters sat down on the bear skin circular chairs, Tang Jing waved his hand and several beautiful maids in floral dresses began to shuttle back and forth, placing exquisite tea snacks on the yellow poplar wood square tables in front of each mountain master.

  Yang Shuo Ming noticed that several other mountain masters saw that Luanshi Mountain and Tie Mang Mountain had changed their leaders (the leader of Luanshi Mountain was Yang Shuo Ming, and the leader of Tie Mang Mountain had been replaced by one of Liu Dama Zi's subordinates), and they all seemed to have a hint of sadness in their eyes. They couldn't help but nod secretly, deeply admiring Tang Jing's move in summoning all the mountain masters this time.

  Of course, Yang Shuo Ming now admires is not just Tang Jing alone.

  Yang Shuo Ming did not expect that Yao Chang Kui, the leader of the bandits at Sai Shi Ridge, would actually dare to come in person to this gathering with a "Hongmen Banquet" nature.

  Although Yang Shuo Ming was not unfamiliar with Yao Chang Kui's appearance (after the last repulsion of bandits, Yang Shuo Ming collected detailed intelligence on various mountain leaders, and Yao Chang Kui was one of his key targets), this was still the first time for Yang Shuo Ming to have a face-to-face confrontation with Yao Chang Kui.

  Yao Changkui was a short and stout man, about forty years old, with two-thirds of his head bald due to an early illness. He had a round face with small eyes that looked like they were carved out on a winter melon, and a big mouth full of yellow teeth.

  Yang Shuo Ming carefully observed Yao Chang Kui, the "Super Computer Eye" constantly displaying relevant data and information to Yang Shuo Ming. When Yang Shuo Ming understood why Yao Chang Kui dared to come to the banquet, he couldn't help but let out a cold laugh in his heart.

  "Please ask the lady to come out and pour tea for everyone." Tang Jing instructed a maid.

  After hearing Tang Jing's words, Yang Shuo was very curious and wondered which of Tang Jing's twelve wives would be called out to serve tea.

  In these few days of coming to Tianyun Mountain, except for Tang Jiuniang, he had not appeared in front of any other female relatives of the Tang family.

  Soon, Tang Jing's wife came out. When she appeared in front of everyone, Yang Shuo Ming only felt a flash of light before his eyes, and at the same time, he could also clearly feel that the other few mountain owners were holding their breath.

  "Thank you, madam," said Tang Jing, "pour tea for our honored guests."

  "Yes." Mrs. Tang replied softly, turned around, and her piercing eyes scanned the mountain masters one by one. Whenever her gaze lingered on someone for a moment, that person would become somewhat self-conscious until her gaze left their body.

  Although he had already developed immunity to beauties after Huang Yunzhi, Yang Shao Ming's immunity to beauties had reached an extremely high level, but today, when he first saw her, he didn't even have time to look at the data given by his "Super Computer Eyes".

  Height: , Weight: 48kg, Bust: 82cm, Waist: 60cm, Hips: 85cm, Blood Type: AB, Age: 23, Attribute: Young Mother...

  Dry data, at this time, has no meaning for her anymore.

  Yang Shuo Ming could tell from the faces of other mountain kings that their wives were also beautiful women with good looks, but they couldn't be compared to Tang Jing's wife.

  Tang Xuan's wife can be described with the four words "beauty like a heavenly being". She had her hair coiled up, revealing a glossy blackness that was as smooth as a mirror. Her eyebrows were shaped like crescent moons and her eyes sparkled like stars. Standing there in her red dress, she gave off an dazzling impression. As soon as she appeared in the courtyard, it was filled with a delicate fragrance that was both elegant and refined. Although it was faint, everyone present could smell it strongly.

  Mrs. Tang's gaze swept across the crowd, and again stopped at Yang Shuo Ming's body, perhaps noticing that this young man in a dignified military uniform did not have the same dazed or even crazy look on his face as others. She smiled slightly and walked towards Yang Shuo Ming. Yang Shuo Ming noticed that when she walked, her movements were elegant and quiet, like a leaf floating on water, and he couldn't help but secretly admire her.

  Seeing Mrs. Tang being the first to pour tea for Yang Shuo Ming, the faces of several other mountain masters involuntarily showed a jealous look.

  Tang Jing also noticed the subtle change in the atmosphere of the courtyard. He just sat there smiling and didn't say a word.

  Mrs. Tang finished pouring tea for the various mountain masters one by one, then turned around and slightly bowed to Tang Jing before leaving with a flourish. Yang Shuo Ming noticed that except for himself, almost all the other mountain kings were staring at her back until she walked out of the courtyard and her figure completely disappeared, after which some people's expressions still hadn't returned to normal.

  Yang Shuo Ming now understands why Tang Xuan has never let her appear in front of him even though she's been here for several days.

  "Sister-in-law is truly a heavenly figure, today I see her and indeed the name is not in vain," asked a mountain big king, "but I don't know where her hometown is? Brother Tang also married from where?"

  "Everyone says that I, Tang Xuan, am lustful by nature and have brought back twelve wives from my conquests. Today, I'll formally tell everyone that I, Tang Xuan, only have one wife. Tang Xuan laughed loudly and said, "As the saying goes, 'once you've sailed across the vast ocean, it's hard to be impressed by mere rivers and lakes.' Since I met her, I, Tang Xuan, have looked down on all the world's great rivers and lakes."

  "I remember that one of the madams was a concubine of the county magistrate, could it be her..." Another mountain owner asked hesitantly.

  When he heard his question, Yang Shuo Ming also involuntarily cast a puzzled glance at Tang Jing.

  "Tang Xiang previously kidnapped people to go up the mountain, not for marriage," Tang Jing said with a cold smile. "Those old men are all half-dead, some have even lost all their teeth, but they still marry 17 or 18-year-old girls! I, Tang Jing, can't stand such things and must intervene! Those women, after going up the mountain, were treated well by me, given plenty of money and goods, allowed to leave and get married, not a single one was kept."

  Tang Jing said, meeting Yang Shuo Ming's gaze, "In the end, only she was left on the mountain. And it wasn't that I snatched her away, it was just that I coincidentally ran into her in the county town, and as soon as she saw me, she followed me up the mountain."

  Yang Shuo Ming knew that Tang Jing's words were actually an explanation for himself, and couldn't help but smile.

  "I understand, I understand." After hearing Tang Jing's words, Yao Changkui suddenly burst out laughing. "I heard that in the mountains of Hubei, there is a kind of snake. If you sprinkle cat urine on a white handkerchief and place it at the entrance of this snake's hole, the snake will smell the urine and come out onto the handkerchief. It will then leave its essence on the handkerchief. As long as you dry the handkerchief and wave it in front of a woman, she will become infatuated and follow you herself." (Author's note: The above content has not been scientifically proven, please do not imitate ^_^). "I heard that Tang's family is originally from Hubei. I suppose your wife was met at the temple fair in the county town?"

  After listening to Yao Changkui's provocative and sarcastic words, Yang Shuo Ming quickly glanced at Tang Jing. He found that Tang Jing was still calm and composed, but through his "super computer eyes", he judged from Tang Jing's slightly flushed face that he was actually extremely angry at this time.

  "It seems that Brother Yao must be very eager to go to Hubei." Tang Jing smiled slightly without changing his expression, and changed the subject, "Today, I, Tang, invited everyone here because I have obtained two treasures, and I would like to invite you all to appreciate them together."

  Tang Jing said, clapping his hands, several soldiers from Tianyun Mountain carried in two boxes covered with red silk into the courtyard.

  Apart from Yang Shuo Ming, the rest of the Shan Da Wang's eyes all showed a look of surprise.

  The soldier who carried the box put it down, and a leader looked at Tang Jing, Tang Jing nodded, the leader suddenly stretched out his hand to uncover the red cloth, opened the box, and the shadows of two black and shiny mortars appeared immediately.

  "What's this thing that Tang Dada said was a treasure?" Yao Changkui burst out laughing, "What is this? A crowbar?"

  "Don't look down on it, Brother Yao," Tang Jing said calmly, his eyes suddenly radiating a chilling glare. "I think your subordinates must have witnessed the power of this cannon."

  Yao Changkui's laughter came to an abrupt halt as he stared intently at the two mortars, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes.

  "Of course, I've seen it before." Yao Changkui glared at Tang Jing with a vicious expression and said, "I didn't expect that Brother Tang would also have this thing now, it's truly a joyous occasion." His gaze immediately shifted to Yang Shouming, "I heard that you're the one who came up with this, right?"

  Yang Shuo Ming nodded and stared intently at every small movement of Yao Chang Kui.

  "I get it, Tang's invitation to us this time is not to see the treasure, but to set up a feast of Hongmen!" Yao Changkui suddenly stood up from his bear skin chair and shouted loudly, "Tang! You dare to collude with the government and betray your fellow practitioners!"

  "Brother Yao said this and I don't understand." Tang Jing sneered and said, "Obviously it was Brother Yao and Liu Dama who accepted the official amnesty, and even got a title of Traveling General. When it comes to colluding with the authorities to harm fellow Taoists, shouldn't that be you, Yao?"

  "If it weren't for my good luck, I'm afraid the person you sent would have already shot me in cold blood." Tang Jing slowly stood up straight, staring intently at Yao Changkui. "The people you sent to kill me are now in my hands. Do you want me to call them out and confront you face-to-face?"

  Everyone was shocked when they heard Tang Xuan's words.

  "You're a Tang! You have your mother's foul mouth!" Yao Changkui pointed at Tang Jing and Yang Shouming, cursing loudly, "You and this pale-faced kid are in cahoots, trying to harm us. I'm telling you, it won't be that easy!"

  "We didn't want to harm anyone." Yang Shuo Ming sat upright in the leather armchair, gave a slight smile and stared at Yao Chang Kui, saying "Yao master of the house, can you explain to everyone what's tied around your waist? It doesn't look like gold bars."
