Chapter 27

In the long-formed luxury and grandeur, Li She brought along many servants and warriors this time. In this era, as long as you had money, what kind of martial artists couldn't you recruit? With Li She's title of 'Timely Rain of Bianliang,' many destitute martial artists naturally came to seek refuge.

Gold for the handrails, jade for the steps, silk and precious stones filled the magnificent carriage, where Li She and Lady Wang sat. Along the way, there were about forty to fifty maids and matrons, as well as many cooks and servants. The long convoy stretched out in a line, accompanied by over four hundred second-rate experts and more than fifty first-rate experts, all dressed in black and riding tall horses. They proceeded in grand style toward Leigushan.

This luxurious convoy naturally attracted many onlookers, and those who had ulterior motives were not few. However, upon seeing the more than five hundred martial artists, they all gave up their ideas.

"Hey, which family's wastrel is being so ostentatious?"

"You don't know? Li She, the master of 'Heaven and Earth,' known as the 'Timely Rain of Bianliang.' He is a man of public righteousness and immense wealth! If I had a daughter, I would definitely marry her to him."

"Oh! It's Li She, the 'Timely Rain of Bianliang.' No wonder. I heard that Li She is just twenty years old, exceptionally handsome, and always helps the poor by giving out porridge and meat, building bridges, and paving roads. He is a man with a heart like a bodhisattva."

People along the way discussed Li She's luxurious convoy.

Duan Yu was also heading to Leigushan with a few family retainers. Seeing Li She's convoy, he paused and sighed, "Li She is indeed immensely wealthy! And he is also generous and open-handed."

Zhu Danchen, hearing Duan Yu's words, said, "Your Highness, do you know this Li She? 'Heaven and Earth' has branches in the Song, Western Xia, Tubo, and Khitan empires. His wealth and power are formidable. It would be good to make his acquaintance."

Duan Yu, hearing Zhu Danchen's words, couldn't help but think of Ah Zhu and smiled bitterly, "We're not close, just met a couple of times. Let's hurry on our way!"

Li She's convoy arrived at Leigushan in grand style, while Duan Yu and his group, traveling light, naturally arrived a step ahead.

At this moment, Murong Fu was playing chess with Kumārajīva. Murong Fu was struggling in the intricate chess game, and Kumārajīva was no better, with large beads of sweat on his forehead.

Kumārajīva, being a seasoned expert, was shaken and spat out a mouthful of blood. Murong Fu, in a frenzy, drew his sword and slashed at his own neck.

Suddenly, Ah Bi shouted, "Young Master Duan, save my young master!"

Duan Yu's inconsistent 'Six Pulse Sword Technique' instantly knocked the sword out of Murong Fu's hand. Murong Fu, feeling humiliated but compelled by the strange chess game, had to sit down and meditate.

The deaf-mute elder, Congbian, shook his head helplessly. He never thought that the famous 'Southern Murong' could not break the chess game passed down by his master. He was also worried about the other young martial artists.

At this moment, the sound of gongs and drums was heard, "Xingxiu Laoxian, boundless power, great abilities, ruling the Central Plains! Xingxiu Laoxian, boundless power, invincible in battle! Xingxiu Laoxian, boundless power; supreme skills, boundless might!" The noise was quite lively.

Su Xinghe frowned. He had been deaf and mute for years to avoid Ding Chunqiu, who had forced him to swear a deadly oath to obtain the 'Northern Sea Power' and visited every few years. It seemed that this chess game had lured the traitor.

Ding Chunqiu's 'Power Dissolving Technique' and his poison skills, which left no trace, had made him a notorious figure in the martial world, not inferior to the Four Evils.

Although the young talents invited today were from the Central Plains, who didn't fear Ding Chunqiu, the old demon? The young men who wanted to show off were held back by their elders.

Murong Fu, though almost recovered, would not attack Ding Chunqiu for the sake of righteousness, as he was focused on his dream of restoring his kingdom. He saw martial righteousness and romantic love as burdens. So, Murong Fu continued to meditate, pretending to be seriously injured.

The Four Evils also arrived. As for today's original protagonist, Xuzhu, he was among the Shaolin monks.

The leader of the Four Evils, Duan Yanqing, leaned on a cane and sat down. The deaf-mute elder, Congbian, frowned. The man before him was over fifty and disabled. How could he become a disciple of the Elegant School, which valued appearance and talent? However, Duan Yanqing's evil reputation made Su Xinghe wary. Not only had his archenemy Ding Chunqiu come, but the Four Evils had also arrived. If things weren't handled well, a fierce battle was inevitable.

Su Xinghe had no choice but to pick up a black piece and play. Duan Yanqing, entering the chess game, seemed to be completely absorbed, recalling his past. He was once a prince, but a coup in his country left him injured, disfigured, and disabled.

"Strong enemies ahead, pursuers behind! How to play! Where to play? Where to play? Dead end, all dead ends. Dead end! All dead ends!" Duan Yanqing's eyes bulged as he muttered.

Ding Chunqiu, seeing Duan Yanqing still absorbed, knowing the power of the chess game, incited him, "Yes, strong enemies ahead, pursuers behind. You can't escape. Just commit suicide and be done with it."

"Yes, strong enemies ahead, pursuers behind. Just commit suicide and be done with it." Duan Yanqing's eyes were lifeless as he muttered. As he raised his iron cane to strike his head, a hideous monk from the Shaolin Sect suddenly rushed out, seemingly wanting to help Duan Yanqing make a move.

At that moment, a loud explosion shook the ground, startling Duan Yanqing out of his trance. Xuzhu, who was about to make a random move for Duan Yanqing, was also stunned, frozen in a forward-leaning posture.

Yue Laosan, Ye Erniang, and Yun Zhonghe surrounded Duan Yanqing, drawing their weapons to face the Xingxiu Sect.

After the explosion, the sound of整齐的马蹄声朝这边走来，两百号江湖好手勒马四散开戒备起来，整齐划一的动作让人忍不住胆寒，紧跟其后的居然是一百名带着强弓硬弩的江湖好手翻身下马占据制高点，强弓硬弩上弦四下戒备。

最后两百江湖一流高手一前一后的护送着一辆奢华炫目的豪华马车缓缓行了过来。

那面巨大的黑旗上的大字表明来人的身份，‘李’代表了来人的身份，普天之下还能有那个姓李的能够有这么大的排场？除了人送绰号‘汴梁及时雨’的李舍还有谁？‘天上人间’可是富可敌国的象征，生意遍布各地。

车子停下来后，家丁跟丫鬟们，取出长长的红地毯从车门口一直铺到了聪辨先生跟前。

苏星河也怔了一下，看到李舍这个排场自然认为李舍是个招摇过市的草包罢了。

眼前的一幕幕看在慕容复的眼里，更加激起了要杀死李舍，在娶王语嫣的心思，这哪是亿万家产，这根本就是富可敌国啊！拥有了李家家业，大燕富国指日可待。

阴狠的眼神盯着车门，“哼！我倒要看看这个李舍是什么样的人物，哼杀了你，在娶了王语嫣这个贱人，我会用你李家的家产为我大燕打下一个巨大的江山。”慕容复想到。

车门打开时，一位年方二八面容俊朗的白衣男子，头发随意扎在身后，那个性的两撇胡子，让整个人充满喜感。

年轻男子正是李舍，李舍扶着王语嫣两人手挽着手慢慢下来，王语嫣那惊人的面容自然让在场的那些武林公子们叹为天人，但是看到对方名花有主，而且这个主还不好惹的情况下，纷纷装作不在意的样子。

大庭广众之下，李舍自然不能亲自扶王夫人出来，自有丫鬟搀扶着王夫人慢慢下车。

当段誉见到王语嫣那一刻，整个人就像是被电了一下，好像自己心里最重要的东西被人夺走一般，心里堵得怎么也说不出来，只能痴痴的看着对方。“天底下间怎么会有如此美丽的女子，为何早已嫁为人妇？”段誉悲痛道。

李舍三人踩着红地毯缓缓朝着苏星河走来，李舍亮了亮手中的请帖，示意自己是被邀请来的。对着苏星河说道：“苏先生，不好意思。这擂鼓山山路难走，不得已只有用炸药砸开山石，我的马车才能通过。毁了点擂鼓山的风景，实在抱歉！”

原本四大恶人跟星宿派剑拔弩张的阵势被李舍那更加夸张的阵势给镇住了，突然一声呐喊打破了这沉默。

“该死的小白脸！居然敢强我家公子爷的女人！我老风砍了你！”性格冲动的风波恶看到来人跟王语嫣两手相依后那还不知道对方就是李舍？拔出宝刀准备冲上前去大开杀戒，就在这时，慕容复阻止道：“风四哥慢！语嫣表妹多半有不得已的苦衷。”其实慕容复是看到了那五百多武林高手已经严阵以待，相信只要风波恶敢踏出一步，那一百名手持强弓劲弩的高手便会将风波恶射成刺猬。这么短的距离，就是慕容复自己也不敢说能够对付得了那一百多张强弓劲弩。

慕容复看着王语嫣，装作一副一往情深的样子，问道：“语嫣，到底是为什么，为什么不等我回来？是不是有什么苦衷？”

那个对自己一直爱的死去活来的傻表妹换做原来一定感动得不行，可是现在的王语嫣在知道了慕容家跟自己有杀父之仇，慕容复对自己好只是想图谋自己王家家业时，一切的一切都变了。在这个杀父之仇大过天的年代里。报父仇才是为人子女的责任。

《易筋经》有成后王语嫣的气质更加圣洁，微微张口说道；“慕容复，虽然你是我表哥，但是现在我和李郎完婚，请你自重。以后称呼我为李夫人。”
