Chapter 20: Washed Hands
At this time, Da Song Yang's eyes were all focused on Chen Xiao, wanting to see what he was up to. The others also looked at Chen Xiao as he held the basin and asked each of them to wash their hands one by one. Suddenly, Liu Zhengfeng's voice rang out: "It's really hot today." Then there was the sound of water.
"Not good!"
At this time, Fei Bin suddenly realized that he had been deceived. Just as he was about to stop him, he suddenly found that Liu Zhengfeng had already put his hand in the golden basin and even washed it carefully.
This time it's settled, no matter how Fei Bin explains, Liu Zhengfeng's golden basin washing hands is also over.
It is known that the most serious form in the Jianghu, washing hands with a golden basin, means to quit the Jianghu. As long as this hand is washed, any matter in the Jianghu will have nothing to do with oneself.
Fei Bin's face was unpredictable, staring at Chen Xiao for a long time before gritting his teeth and saying: "Disciples of the Songshan Sect, listen to my orders, keep an eye on the Liu family members, not one person is allowed to escape." These few words were not loud, but they were extremely arrogant, everyone in the hall heard them, and no one was not shocked.
Liu Zhengfeng was furious and asked Fei Bin: "Liu has already washed his hands in the golden basin, Brother Fei, what are you talking about?"
In the Jianghu, there has always been a principle that trouble does not involve family members. At this time, the Songshan Sect did such a thing, which had already exceeded everyone's imagination. The temperament of Mi Huaizong was the most violent, and with a "clang" sound, she drew out the Yitian Sword and angrily said: "You Songshan Sect are too presumptuous, aren't you?"
As soon as he saw the nun Mie, Chen Xiao shouted "Good!" and thought to himself: "Heh heh, just for this one thing, it was worth my while to take your pulse for you!"
Ding Yishi's temper was similar to that of Miechu Shitai, and she also shouted loudly on the side: "What do you mean by this? You're too bullying!"
Yue Buqun, who was standing beside him, tried to mediate: "Fei brother, Liu brother has already washed his hands of this matter. Let's not make a big deal out of it and have everyone at odds with each other. Why don't we all take a step back?"
Fei Bin originally thought this was a family matter of the Five Mountains Sword Sect, and the strength of the other four sects could still be handled by the people he brought with him. After all, the strength of Hengshan Sect was not as good as his own Songshan Sect, and Yue Buqun of Huashan Sect might not care about it. Tianmen Daozhang of Taishan Sect also had a bad temper, but the group of good hands he brought could still suppress them.
But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't have anticipated that at this moment, a Emei Sect's Extinction Nun would jump out!
It turns out that the Extinction Sect's leader is a stubborn and biased person, if she followed her previous temperament, she wouldn't even bother with this kind of rotten thing from the Five Mountains Sword Sect.
However, she had previously been pointed out by Chen Xiao for her shortcomings, and she also liked Chen Xiao's character very much. At this time, seeing Chen Xiao intervene, she didn't say a word and came up to help with her sword. As for who was wrong, she couldn't be bothered to care. Even if we take a step back and say that Liu Zhengfeng had already washed his hands of the matter, he wouldn't harm his family members, using his relatives as threats, which is despicable.
With Extinction Sect's interference, things became much more complicated.
Fei Binkou didn't think that the people he brought could provide food and shelter for everyone present, so his face looked extremely difficult, not daring to make eye contact with this notoriously difficult-to-deal-with Extinction Sect's leader. Instead, he glared fiercely at Chen Xiao, angrily saying: "Who are you, actually meddling in the affairs of the Five Mountains Sword Sect?"
At this point, seeing that the situation has already been set, Chen Xiao still had nothing to fear. He immediately spread his hands and calmly said: "Me? I just washed my hands, hiding my achievements and fame... You fight your own battles, I'm just passing by, purely passing by."
It was interesting to hear him say that, and several young women in the audience couldn't help but burst out laughing with a "heh" sound.
I just washed my hands, which is quite similar to the phrase "I'm just a soy sauce maker" in its absurdity.
Dongfang Yu sat in the main seat, calmly observing with her eyes, gathering her breath and aura, making herself seem like a stone, which had not caught Fei Bin's attention until now. After hearing Chen Xiao's words, she found it quite amusing and thought to herself: "This person always speaks without seriousness."
Linghu Chong also said on the side, "You Shaolin Temple are too broad in your management, can't even wash hands? Do you still need to use the Ling flag to give orders?" As he spoke, he walked to Chen Xiao's side and winked at him, laughing: "I'll wash my hands too."
"Me too!"
At this time, a blue figure flashed several times, and Duan Yu also didn't know how he came over. Among the many people in the scene who were crowded together, none of them blocked him. At this moment, Duan Yu arrived in front of Chen Xiao, stretched out his hand and reached into the water basin, saying: "I'll wash too! I'll wash too! As the saying goes, 'The water of the Canglang River is clear, it can clean my hair.' Haha, great, great!"
He is a bit pedantic, but he has a chivalrous heart. When it comes to kidnapping other people's family members, that's something he must intervene in no matter what.
Chen Xiao, Linghu Chong and Duan Yu were all quite pleased with themselves, and burst out laughing.
Fei Bin's face changed color, and he glared at Chen Xiao with a fierce gaze. He then raised the Five Peaks Command Flag in his hand and said sternly: "Liu Shixiong, the Left Alliance Master has ordered us to investigate you. What kind of secret collusion do you have with the Demon Cult leader Dongfang Bubai? What sinister plot have you set up to deal with our Five Peaks Sword Sect and the righteous sects in the martial arts world?"
He'd be better off not saying that, but as soon as he spoke up, Chen Xiao suddenly glared at Dongfang Yu, squinted his eyes and thought to himself: "This idiot, this time he's really asking for it, haha."
But unexpectedly, Dongfang Yu, who should have made a move, was still sitting in the main seat, without saying a word.
The people inside the main hall naturally knew that Dongfang Bubai was here, but she and Chen Xiao came early. The Jianghu people who arrived later did not know, and the masters from the Songshan School who sneaked in also arrived late and did not know either.
Liu Zhengfeng listened to Fei Bin's words and simply didn't explain, but just bowed slightly and waited quietly for the next move.
As expected, Fei Bin stared at Liu Zhengfeng and sneered: "Liu Shixiong, in the Demon Sect there is a guardian elder named Qu Yang. I wonder if Liu Shixiong knows him?"
At the mention of "Qu Yang", Liu Zhengfeng raised his head and said bluntly, "I know him."
He added another sentence: "Qu Yang Qu big brother, I not only recognize him, but he is the only person who knows me in my life, my best friend."
"Hahaha!" Fei Bin laughed loudly: "You answered quickly! What about colluding with the demonic sect?"
Liu Zhengfeng's eyebrows furrowed, and he said proudly: "Fei Shixiong, as for getting along with Qu Yang, Liu has never denied it. However, these two words 'collusion', Liu can't bear the responsibility, I'm afraid they will be returned intact."
His words were absolutely not groundless.
Making friends, that's when two people are on the same wavelength, truly good friends. But colluding, then it becomes two people plotting something nefarious, if these two words are confirmed, then the stance will be completely compromised.
Liu Zhengfeng was originally polite and courteous, like a wealthy landlord with some benevolent air of wealth, but at this time he suddenly showed his heroic spirit, which was very different from before. The group of heroes saw that he was neither humble nor arrogant, and some quick-witted people couldn't help but shout out in praise.
Fei Bin sneered: "So it seems that Brother Liu is determined not to kill the great demon head Qu Yang?"
Liu Zhengfeng remained silent, but at this moment, a soft female voice was heard saying: "Originally, I thought that Qu Yang had the idea of betraying our Shendao. Now that Liu Zhengfeng, Great Hero Liu, has said so, I've suddenly changed my mind. Qu Yang, come out!"
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound, and it was indeed Dongfang Bubai!
As soon as the words fell, a black-clad man suddenly flew in from the crowd outside and arrived in front of Dongfang Bubai. He knelt on one knee, clasped his fists and said: "Your subordinate Qu Yang, paying respects to the Master."
Fei Bin only now saw Dongfang Bubai sitting there, and upon hearing the two's words, his face suddenly changed greatly. He pointed at Dongfang Bubai, trembling with voice, saying: "You... you are Dongfang..."
Dongfang Yujiao smiled and glanced at Fei Bin with a slanted gaze, saying disdainfully: "However, I am Dongfang Invincible. Now that I'm here, why don't you dare to come and make a move?"
Fei Bin broke out in cold sweat and didn't dare say another word.
One of the six greatest masters in the world, Dongfang Bubai, the leader of the Day and Night Cult, is right in front of him, but he has already lost the courage to fight back!
At this time, Chen Xiao didn't forget to add fuel to the fire: "Dongfang girl, good job, I'm watching you, hehe."
Dongfang Yujun smiled slightly and nodded in agreement.
The same action between two people can have a completely different meaning in the eyes of onlookers.
Shaolin's Xuan Ku Master muttered a silent "Amitabha", thinking to himself: "Now it seems, Chen Shizhu and Dongfang Bubai have a rather deep relationship. With Chen Shizhu around, perhaps he can dispel some of Dongfang Bubai's evil aura."
Yue Buqun thought to himself, "If Chen Xiao can gain the favor of Dongfang Bubai, and if it's possible to slowly resolve the grudges between everyone, that would be a wonderful thing. If there's an opportunity, I'll invite him to Huashan for a chat, Wind and Cloud's Shifu will definitely be delighted."
Ding Yi thought: "This kid can even joke with Dongfang Bubai, no wonder Yilin would become sworn siblings with him."
Everyone present had their own thoughts, but Qu Yang said: "Master Hui Jue, I and Brother Liu became acquainted with each other through music, and we hit it off immediately. Although we occasionally touched on the differences between our sects, we both thought that the struggle between the two sides was meaningless. I like playing the guqin, while Brother Liu is an expert at playing the sheng. As for martial arts, we never discuss it."
Dongfang Bubai looked at Liu Zhengfeng and asked: "Is this true?"
Liu Zhengfeng respectfully said: "Brother Qu's words are not the slightest bit off. Although Brother Qu is a demonic... person from the Day and Night Sect, but from his music, I deeply know that he has a noble character, with a heart as clear and bright as a sunny day after a storm. Liu Zhengfeng not only admires him, but also looks up to him. Although Liu is just a humble fellow, he will never harm Brother Qu."
Dongfang Bubai said calmly: "Alright, good. Now I'll give you two choices."
At this time, everyone was intimidated by Dongfang Bu Bai's aura, and the ravens were silent. The whole scene was quiet, waiting for her to continue speaking.
"Dongfang Bubai slowly said, 'Firstly, I will no longer pursue the matter of you becoming friends with Qu Xiang after disabling your martial arts. Secondly, if you disable Qu Xiang's martial arts, can you still be considered Liu Zhengfeng of Mount Heng?'"
