Shi Potian travels through Linghu Chong

Chapter 27: Killing Heart (Please read~Please collect~)

Yue Buqun said: "It is not difficult for me to accept you as my disciple, but you must know that our Huashan Sect has been established in the martial arts world for hundreds of years. Although we can compete with other sects in martial arts, temporary strength and weakness, victory or defeat are insignificant. What really matters is that every disciple of our sect cherishes the reputation of the master."

"If you join our Huashan Sect, you must strictly abide by the sect rules, always remember that benevolence and righteousness come first, and be a gentleman. If you violate the rules, you will be punished according to the severity of the case. Those who commit serious crimes will be executed immediately without mercy."

Lin Pingzhi said solemnly: "Disciple will remember Master's teachings and will never dare to do anything that will damage the reputation of Master."

Yue Buqun smiled slightly and said, "Okay, I will accept you as my disciple."

Lin Pingzhi was overjoyed and kowtowed to Yue Buqun: "Disciple Lin Pingzhi greets Master."

Yue Buqun pointed at Shi Potian and Yue Lingshan and said, "This is your senior brother Linghu Chong, and this is your junior sister Yue Lingshan."

Seeing Lin Pingzhi's surprise, he explained, "Shan'er is my daughter. It's not appropriate to list her in the order of disciples according to the order of entry. You are older than her, so you are her senior brother."

Lin Pingzhi suddenly realized and stepped forward to greet them: "Lin Pingzhi greets Senior Brother, and greets Junior Sister."

This is different from the original time and space, when Lin Pingzhi was outside Fuzhou City and did not care about Yue Lingshan's ugly disguise, he still stood up for her and made Yue Lingshan have a very good impression of him.

In this world, Lin Pingzhi's two followers, Zheng Biaotou and Shi Biaotou, saw Lin Pingzhi frequently looking sideways at Yue Lingshan, so they instigated Lin Pingzhi to go up and talk to Yue Lingshan.

Although Yu Renyan interrupted this chat before it could be put into action, their pointing and whispering still gave Yue Lingshan a very bad first impression of Lin Pingzhi, and they directly labeled Lin Pingzhi a playboy.

With this initial impression, in Yue Lingshan's eyes, Lin Ping's subsequent fight with Yu Renyan changed from the chivalrous hero of the original time and space to the aggressive and competitive dandy boy who didn't even know his own weight.

Yue Lingshan's impression of Lin Pingzhi was even worse, not much better than Yu Renyan's.

Therefore, Yue Lingshan did not play around with Lin Pingzhi in person like she did in the original time and space, and did not insist on competing for the position of a senior sister. Instead, she treated him as an ordinary senior brother, and a senior brother whom she did not have any good feelings towards.

Shi Potian was a little at a loss.

It was the first time that he had been greeted so respectfully by his junior fellow apprentice. He didn't know how to respond or what to say. He could only look to Yue Lingshan for help, hoping that she would teach him how to deal with it.

Yue Lingshan saw that Shi Potian was in distress and was the first to step forward and greet him, "Senior Brother Lin."

Shi Potian followed suit and quickly returned the greeting: "Senior Brother Lin."

Noticing the surprised looks of the crowd, Shi Potian finally realized that he had called out the wrong name out of nervousness. His face flushed, and he quickly changed his words: "Junior Brother Lin!"

"Captain Lin, since Pingzhi has accepted me as his master, he must return to Huashan with me to practice martial arts. I'm afraid he won't be able to come back in the short term."

Yue Buqun spoke up to help Shi Potian resolve the awkward situation and said, "If you have anything to say to him, explain it to him tonight and prepare his clothes and luggage. We will set off for Hengshan tomorrow morning to attend Senior Brother Liu Zhengfeng's retirement ceremony."

"My wife has already led the Huashan disciples to Hengshan. After we meet, I will send disciples to Fujian to help you."

"Before that, you should be careful and keep a low profile. If you really run into any trouble, just report the name of Huashan Sect. I think those friends in the martial arts world will give me some face."

Lin Zhennan nodded repeatedly in agreement, left two escort leaders guarding the door for Yue Buqun to send out, and took Madam Lin, Lin Pingzhi, the escort masters and porters outside, and those young and old back to the Fuwei Escort Agency.

On the way, the news that Lin Pingzhi, the young leader of the Fuwei Escort Agency, had become the disciple of Yue Buqun, the leader of the Huashan Sect and the "Gentleman Sword", quickly spread throughout the entire Fuzhou city.

"Master, I... I'm sorry... I didn't mean it..."

In the private room, Shi Potian felt that he had embarrassed his master again, and he felt guilty and blamed himself: "I will definitely change."

Yue Buqun was shocked: "No need! No need! Chong'er, you are already very good now, don't change, and there is no need to change! Life is short, why bother about other people's opinions, just be yourself and have a clear conscience!"

Shi Potian was both impressed and moved. He called out "Master" with a choked voice and red eyes.

Yue Buqun held Shi Potian and gave him a long and earnest exhortation to comfort him. He wanted to tell Shi Potian, "If someone says you are wrong, then he is wrong; if everyone says you are wrong, then the world is wrong." Yue Lingshan pouted at the side, "Why didn't I ever say that to my eldest brother before?" She wanted to use a ruler to set rules for my eldest brother!
I’m just worried that the eldest brother’s innocent heart will be affected!
hypocritical!

Yue Buqun noticed Yue Lingshan's expression and guessed what she was thinking. Feeling a little ashamed, he changed the subject: "Shan'er, is there still no news about your second senior brother?"

Yue Lingshan shook her head: "The news about Daddy in Qingping Inn has spread all over Fuzhou City. I also made a lot of secret signals in the city. If Second Senior Brother is in Fuzhou City, he must have come to find us. He should have left."

Yue Buqun just said "hmm" and didn't say anything else, but he had already sentenced Lao Denuo to death in his heart.

Yue Buqun had been somewhat suspicious of Lao Denuo, his disciple who had come to him with martial arts skills, from the very beginning, but the Huashan Sect was really short of manpower, especially those with rich experience in martial arts.

Yue Buqun suppressed his suspicion and reused Lao Denuo.

Not only did he make an exception and let him become the second senior brother of Huashan Sect, but he also handed over many external affairs of Huashan Sect to him, making him like the general manager of Huashan Sect.

His status and position are second only to the couple and their eldest disciple Linghu Chong, and his power is even greater than Linghu Chong.

Yue Buqun has another purpose for making this arrangement——

Let Lao Denuo be busy running around outside the mountain and have no time to make friends with disciples within the sect, so as to prevent him from winning over people's hearts and threatening Linghu Chong's position as the successor to the sect leader.

Things like cuckoos occupying magpies' nests have happened frequently from ancient times to the present!
Yue Buqun has read the books of sages for a long time, so he shouldn't know too much about these things.

Lao Denuo did not disappoint Yue Buqun's trust, or rather, he far exceeded Yue Buqun's expectations. He handled all the matters entrusted by Yue Buqun in an orderly manner. There were even many things that Yue Buqun found troublesome, but Lao Denuo was able to handle them very well.

Yue Buqun became even more suspicious of Lao Denuo.

A wandering man who has been in the underworld for decades but has not made a name for himself should not have such ability!
And someone with such ability should not choose to come to Huashan Sect!

Unless he has evil intentions, or is simply eyeing the position of the leader of the Huashan Sect!
Both of these were unacceptable to Yue Buqun.

But by this time, Laudno had become a difficult problem to eliminate.

Not to mention that he hasn't found the evidence yet, even if he really did find it, people would still think he was getting rid of the donkey after it had served its purpose!
Yue Buqun could only endure it temporarily, and at the same time assign more tasks to Lao Denuo, making him so busy that he didn't even have time to stay in Mount Hua. His main goal was to make a lot of money if he died of exhaustion, and a small profit if he didn't die of exhaustion.

Yue Buqun believed that before there was a big enough benefit, Lao Denuo would work harder and be more loyal than other Huashan disciples in order to gain his trust and reuse.

But now, things are different!

A huge benefit appeared that was enough to make Laudeno give up all his rebellion.

Linghu Chong, who learned the Zixia magic at a young age!

Regardless of whether Lao Denuo was a spy from another faction or wanted to seize the position of the leader of Huashan, he would definitely not tolerate a Linghu Chong like him.

He quickly took action.

Shi Potian and Yue Lingshan did not see through Lao Denuo's vicious intentions, but Yue Buqun saw through them at a glance after just listening to their story once.

Lao Denuo wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife, use the Qingcheng Sect and Yu Canghai to get rid of Shi Potian, stir up conflicts between the Qingcheng Sect and the Huashan Sect, and take advantage of the opportunity to profit!
Whether it was his seemingly selfless act of actively luring the enemy, or his intentional allowing himself to be captured and leaving a secret code, or even his actions of killing Qingcheng disciples such as Hong Renxiong, all were for this purpose!

　Considering that Yue Buqun did not immediately cause trouble for Lao Denuo when he discovered that the Zixia magic skill was lost, this article adopts the view that Yue Buqun only suspected that Lao Denuo was a spy but had no evidence.

　　As for what Lao Denuo said later in the original novel that Yue Buqun was treacherous and he had known that he was a spy, since it was said by a fictional character and not a narration, it cannot be used as evidence. Therefore, it is determined that Lao Denuo said it deliberately in order to cover up the fact that he had stolen the wrong Book of the Sword of Exorcism.

　　PS: There are many inconsistencies in "Swordsman", and different versions are also different. Don't take it too seriously~ Just have fun~ Thank you very much~
