Chapter 76: Ascension and Fierce Battle

The ceremony had officially begun, and Fu Ye sat in the center of the room as the master of the altar. Behind him was a three-tiered offering table made of square tables, with yellow paper pasted on each tier.

There are names written in red on it. The top layer enshrines Yang Jiaoai and Zuo Botao, the middle layer is the 108 heroes of Liangshanpo, and the bottom layer is the first and last five ancestors of Hongmen.

There is another paper tower on the altar with "Gaoxi Tower" written on it, and a stick and a knife placed next to it. The knife is the Hongmen knife, and the stick is the dragon and phoenix stick.

Song Tianen crossed the square and came to the main courtyard!
There is also a wooden bowl three feet and six inches high, representing "Muyang City", which is the Hongmen pass. It is covered with small yellow flags, each with the name of the ancestor. In the center is a red paper card with the words "Commander of the Three Armies of Honghuating" written in white letters.

At the bottom of the wooden bucket are written four small characters "Mu Li Dou Shi", which are heavily pressed down. "Mu" means eighteen, representing the number of years Emperor Shunzhi was in power.

"Li" is 61, representing the number of years Emperor Kangxi was in power, "Dou" is 12, representing Emperor Yongzheng, and "Shi" is 23, implying that the Qing Dynasty will be destroyed in the 23rd year of Emperor Qianlong's reign. Although the prophecy did not come true afterwards, the curse code has been used until now without any change.

At this moment, Mr. Fu was dressed in old-fashioned Republic of China clothes, holding incense in his hand and bowing three times to the statue.

"Zhengxing was originally from the Hongmen. After passing the five levels, he was awarded the title of Hongying. For sixty years, he has been on par with Tianqi and has made the world red!"

Then he turned to Song Tianen and shouted loudly, "What sect is this?"

Song Tianen: "This is Hongmen!"

Mr. Fu asked, "What are you doing here?"

Song Tianen: "We will be sworn brothers and protect our master's ascension to the throne!"

Mr. Fu asked: "Is it sincere or false?"

Song Tianen: "Sincerely and sincerely!"

Master Fu lit some incense sticks, gave each of them one, and held it above his head. He took up the Hongmen knife and tapped them on the back, shouting loudly as he tapped:

"Once you join the Hongmen, you must not collude with the government, you must not bully your brother or his wife, you must not sell out your brothers and sisters, you must not be disloyal, you must not flirt with your sisters, you must not shrink back when something happens, you must not disclose secrets, you must not collude with outsiders, you must not be indecisive, you must not betray your master or ancestors, otherwise you will be killed with three swords and six eyes, and there will be no mercy!"

"Zhengxing's fifth-generation disciple, Song Tianen, kneel down!"

"Today, Hongmen Zhengxing has reopened the incense hall, and the Sixth Marshal Hong Fu has promoted our Zhengxing disciple to the position of the head of our Zhengxing Tiger Hall!"

"Jimmy boy! Dongguan boy, come forward!"

The two young men, whose faces turned red with excitement, did not react for a moment.

He only reacted after being pushed by his uncles behind him.

After the two of them came forward, Uncle Yuan pointed to Song Tianen's left and right sides and said, "Kneel down!"

"Today, Zhengxing disciple Li Jiayuan has been promoted to level 415 White Paper Fan!"

"Today, there is a disciple of Zhengxing named Lam Ka Tung (Dongguanzi's real name and surname), who has been promoted to the rank of 432 straw sandals!"

Then he took out three incense sticks and gave one to each of the three people. At this time, Master Fu walked up to the three people with a big horse and a golden sword.

First, he put the knife on Song Tianen's back.

With a solemn expression, he said, "Do you love your brothers and sisters or gold?"

The three people holding the incense naturally shouted, "Love your brothers and sisters."

"No way!" Song Tianen added in his heart.

But no matter what Song Tianen thought.

The young Dongguanzi and Jimmyzi had serious expressions on their faces. They had made up their minds that as long as the new boss did not betray the society and did not betray Mr. Fu, they would definitely assist him well.
-

Then it’s time to chop off the chicken’s head.

According to the old rules, each newlywed should prepare a live chicken, but now it is simplified, one chicken is used for all chickens. First, the live chicken is wrapped with gold ingots, and a long red hair is tied to the chicken's feet. Everyone touches the hair to get a murderous aura. Master Fu pressed the chicken to the ground and chanted:

"Ning'er's surname is Ma, don't betray Hongmen. Take this as a warning tonight in front of Muyang City."

Ning'er is Ma Ning'er, originally a Shaolin monk from Fujian. He betrayed his brothers and led the Qing army to surround the mountain and destroy his sect, thus becoming a great evil in the Hongmen. He was ranked seventh in the sect, and the word "seven" became a taboo in the Hongmen. The number seven is considered "auspicious" and the number is not mentioned. Beheading a chicken is called "beheading the seventh", which means to chop Ma Ning'er to death.

The Hongmen traitors were collectively called "Two Five Boys", because two plus five equals seven.

For example, Li Tianyi would have such a big reaction when Xiao Zhuoxiao called him Seventh Brother!
Before the knife fell, Master Fu hovered over the chicken's head with the knife and continued to recite:

"Ma Ning'er, you have committed a heinous crime. Tonight, the newcomer will punish you and ask you how to deal with the unworthy traitor. The gold and silver clothes and paper will be your coffin! The golden knife will shine red, and the phoenix will shine above its head. Four seasons of blessing will come one after another. Push the left and right mountains and you will be prosperous. Three, eight, twenty-one veins will rise, and the five lakes and four seas will form one sect. The sworn brotherhood in the incense hall is truly united, and the phoenix chicken will be thrown out with both hands!"

After he finished, he raised his knife and cut off the chicken's head. The chicken blood was poured into a bowl and mixed with rice wine. Fu Ye asked Yuan Shu to dip his index finger into the wine, put it on his tongue and suck it while reciting with him: "The phoenix is ​​born with four heads, and people from all corners of the world come to it. With kindness and righteousness, we share the joys and sorrows. Take off the sweater and put on the purple clothes."

Outside the apse.

There were many figures, and Dadou muttered to Huagulong: "Damn it! My legs are sore from standing so much, is this going to end?"

Hua Gu Long gave Da Dou a slap on the face and said, "Shut up! If the bosses hear you, I'll skin you alive! The ceremony is almost over."

"Brother Long, is there any other ceremony? According to the procedure, it's time to end it."

"Well, I told you to be good, but there is one last step. Ask the neighbors if they have any objections!"

"What if you have any objections?"

"What to do? Fight, of course!"
-

Uncle Fu took a deep breath. He was old, really old. He was sore all over after just a while. He must go to Ayi's place to catch dragon tendons after this!

I have to say that the Thai girls we met last time were really hot!
Oh, I am so guilty, I have such blasphemous thoughts in front of the two saints. But Hong Zu, I will brew some more Remy Martin for you tonight. I guarantee it will be much better than the Shaodaozi you drink.

But you still have to stick to the last bit of ritual!
Master Fu sat on a pearwood chair with his arms and legs spread wide, his eyes wide open: "May I ask my friends from all over the world! Do you have any opinions on the Zhengxing Temple today?"

The gangsters in the audience looked at each other, and even if Li Tianyi's faction had any opinions, they would not say anything.

Otherwise, it will be a situation of life and death!
Master Fu nodded in satisfaction, and prepared to stand up to announce the end of the ceremony: "Well... since friends from all sides have no objection, today I, Marshal Zhengxing, will announce it to the world..."

When the ritual was finished.

"Wait! We have objections!" A loud shout came from outside the Second Saint Palace.

The people in Zhengxing turned around to see who was causing trouble.

I don't know when the door opened.

A dozen black vans were parked outside the door.

One after another, people with ferocious faces got out of the car. They were wearing black linen training suits and holding a long object wrapped in newspaper. It was obvious that there must be sharp weapons such as knives and baseball bats inside.

These fighters are all big and strong with bulging temples. You can tell at a glance that they are experts.

At least they look more intimidating than those gangsters in Zhengxing!

If the Zhengxing Young and Dangerous gangsters are likened to primary school students, then this group of burly guys, each about 1.9 meters tall, are rebellious high school students!
At this moment, the people of Zhengxing who were present felt a sinking feeling in their hearts, someone was here to cause trouble!
-

After getting off the car, the men in black automatically divided into two rows and bowed to the black car in the middle.

boom!
The car door was pushed open heavily.

A pair of long legs in leather pants stepped through the car door first, followed by a man who was two meters tall, extremely thin, with long hair almost draped over his shoulders and a silver mask on his face. Such a demeanor naturally caused a commotion among the people in the hall!

Those with sharp eyes knew that this person was Kuang Dao, one of the four Vajras under Chengzhai Hai Ye!
-

According to legend, in addition to the Violent Gang who are responsible for conducting inspections and work outside, Hai Ye in the East District of the Walled City also has his subordinates.

He also has four Vajra protectors under his command!
The four great Vajras each perform their duties to guard the East District.

The sharp-eyed people have recognized that the person who got off the car was one of the King Kongs.

Crazy knife!

Some people say that this guy is a serious criminal who sneaked in from the north! Because he wears a silver mask on his face all year round!

It is said that he is good at using the eight-sided Han sword!

The sword in his hand flashed like rain, able to cut gold and iron. His sword skills, like splashing water, chopped down countless masters!

His fighting ability far exceeds that of Chen Luojun!

This person completely ignored the hostile looks from the Zhengxing guys.
He walked straight towards Mr. Fu, and then threw an open black leather suitcase into his hand, which turned out to be stacks of green US dollars!

Estimated to be millions... of US dollars!
Where had the gangsters present seen so much money?
They all exclaimed in amazement: "Oh my god, US dollars! What are the people in the Walled City doing? Are they asking for money for peace?"

Fu Ye's face trembled. He didn't think that Hai Ye, who was cruel by nature, would compromise and make peace. Fu Ye loved money, but some people's money was as hot as magma.

Then, he glanced at Kuang Dao cautiously.

"What are you people in the Walled City doing?"

A voice like rusty metal scraping against each other came from the mask called Crazy Blade: "Master Fu. This is the transfer fee that Master Hai gave to Song Tianen! Master Hai wants this kid!"

"Master Fu, raise your hand. Master Hai has something to say. As long as you nod your head in agreement, all the past grudges will be wiped out!"

"what!"

The young people present thought there was something wrong with their ears.

Song Tianen just destroyed the other party's violent sect! Hai Ye actually didn't care and wanted to take him in?
Wow, this is so enviable.

However, there was only one person in the audience who was in a very unhappy mood, and that was Mr. Fu.

He cursed in his heart: "Damn it, you guys should have come earlier yesterday. I would have agreed for the sake of the US dollars. Now the altar has been raised. If I nod again now, people will think that I, Zheng Xingfu, am afraid of that guy! Do you still want to stay in the underworld?"

So he said with a fake smile: "Kuang Dao, are you teasing me? Song Tianen is already my favorite, and you come to poach him now. Do you really think that I, Fu, dare not touch you?"

As Master Fu shouted loudly, the Zhengxing guys surrounded them and confronted the people in the city.

Some people even secretly took out machetes from their waists, and would start chopping without hesitation as long as Master Fu gave the order.

"Hahaha!" Kuang Dao laughed loudly, as if he had heard some joke, his laughter was full of contempt.

He pointed at the people present and said arrogantly, "Master Fu, do you really think that you can stop my crazy sword? To tell you the truth, the ones I brought here today are all the elites carefully selected by Master Hai. Their strength is not comparable to yours."

Mr. Fu's face darkened. He naturally knew that what Kuang Dao said was true.

Look at the tall and strong guy on the other side, and then look at our side who all look exhausted. We have already lost half the battle before the fight even starts!

However, Mr. Fu cannot give in so easily, otherwise how can he survive in the world in the future?

At this moment, a lazy voice came from behind: "Hey, masked man, why don't you ask for the opinion of the person involved? You just arranged it for me?"

It’s Song Tianen!

He just stood out from the crowd.

He first bowed to Master Fu and said, "Today I have joined the Hongmen and am a member of Zhengxing. How can I do something that would betray my master and ancestors?"

Then he suddenly turned around and shouted at Kuang Dao: "Today is my big day, Song Tianen! Since you objected just now, then it's a fight to the death with me! Do you dare to fight me in a one-on-one duel!"

After saying that, he took off his leather jacket and pulled out the Mitsubishi bayonet from his waist! The Panshan White Tiger behind him seemed to come alive as his back muscles stretched!
Seeing Song Tianen getting ready for battle.

Blah blah blah!

Zhengxingzi and the people in the walled city all made way for large empty seats.

Since you are causing trouble during someone else's altar-raising ceremony, you must accept this person's invitation to a duel. Otherwise, if this gets out, you will be looked down upon by people in the underworld.

Kuang Dao sneered, "Since you want to fight, then let's fight!"

"Master Hai has already said that if you are inflexible, you can just take your head back! Actually, I hope you don't agree, hahaha! I heard that you defeated Chen Luojun with that Mitsubishi military bayonet? I am very curious whether your broken knife can break my magic sword!"

(Beep: Found an intermediate wish commission; Client: Crazy Blade! Commissioned task: Boy! Don’t agree to transfer, I want to fight to my heart’s content!)
-

Kuang Dao also pulled out a 1.7-meter-long sword from his back. The sword had a thick back and a wide blade!

The sharp edge emits a cold light!
Smooth surfaces even reflect sunlight.

Uncle Fu patted Song Tianen on the shoulder and said, "Don't lose Zhengxing's people!" Then he retreated back into the crowd with an expressionless face.

The meaning is already very clear, this game concerns Zhengxing's face!

Only those who stand up survive, no losers can survive.

"kill!"

There was no more verbal communication! Song Tianen and Kuang Dao shouted at the same time.

The two men moved and rushed towards each other.

Song Tianen moved, like a tiger coming down the mountain, and rushed straight to Kuang Dao. The three-pointed military dagger in his hand flashed coldly in the sun, and there was a sharp gust of wind when he swung it.

His movements were just like a tiger coming down a mountain! The Mitsubishi dagger in his hand left afterimages pointing directly at the vital points of the mad knife.

Kuang Dao was not to be outdone. The Han sword in his hand was like a giant silver dragon, drawing dazzling sword lights in the air. His wrist seemed to be very strong, and the heavy Han sword was lifted lightly in his hand. The broad-bladed Han sword made a dull roar like a whirlwind.

The two figures crossed each other in the open field, and every collision sparked dazzling sparks.

The people around held their breath and stared at the fierce battle.

Hua Gu Long muttered to himself: "Are you kidding me? Are you filming a martial arts drama?"

Li Tianyi looked serious: "This guy is a strong enemy!" He didn't know whether he was talking about Song Tianen or Kuang Dao.

In just over ten seconds, the two of them exchanged more than a dozen blows!

The aftermath of the battle actually created a strong wind that blew in all directions.

Some of the thinner gangsters were actually knocked over on the spot.

Of course, some people fainted from fright.
