Chapter - 399 Both Sabre And Sword Became Missing And the Person Turned Fugitive (17) (2/2)

”This matter is to be treated with the highest confidence,” Chen Youliang said, ”Song Xiongdi, both Longtou Dage, let us search around this place to make sure nobody is eavesdropping.”

A couple of rustling noise was heard as Zhang Bang Longtou and Zhang Bo Longtou were jumping onto the roof, while Chen Youliang and Song Qingshu went inspecting around the hall. They looked behind the idol, behind the curtain, behind the inscribed overhead board, everywhere. Zhang Wuji secretly praised Zhao Min's resourcefulness, as other than this big drum, there was no other hiding place in the main hall. Four people finished their inspection and returned to the hall.

In a low voice Chen Youliang said, ”This matter is highly dependent on Song Xiongdi.”

”Me?” Song Qingshu asked in amazement.

”That's right,” Chen Youliang said, ”Zhang Bo Longtou Dage, please give some 'wu du shi xin san' [five-poison losing conscience powder] and have Song Xiongdi take it to Mount Wudang, let him secretly put it into Zhang Zhenren [a respectful term to address a Taoist priest] and various Wudang heroes' food and drink. We are going to wait at the foot of the mountain. If everything goes well, we are going to capture Zhang Zhenren and various Wudang heroes. Won't we then be able to coerce and disturb that pervert little thief Zhang Wuji so that he obeys our Clan?”

Shi Huolong was first to applaud and called out, ”Marvelous, marvelous!”

Zhi Fa Zhanglao also said, ”This plan is not bad. Our Clan's 'wu du shi xin san' is very fierce, but if we want to put the poison on Zhang Wuji's food and drink, I am afraid the Devil Cult guard on him is too tight, so it is very unlikely for us to succeed. Song Xiongdi is a Wudang disciple, so if we want to capture Wudang people, it will be like guarding against the thief who is already in the house, truly inconspicuous, a very cunning strategy, it will be very easy.”

”This … this …” Song Qingshu haltingly said, ”It means I will have to poison my own father, absolutely impossible.”

Chen Youliang said, ”Our Clan's 'wu du shi xin san' is very effective to lose someone's consciousness, but it is totally harmless to the body. Your honorable father, Song Daxia [great hero Song] is a righteous hero, we respect him very much, we certainly will not harm a single strand of his hair.”

Song Qingshu was still unwilling to comply, he said, ”I join our Clan without asking Tai Shifu and my father's permission first. When they find out in the future, they will certainly hold me accountable; I don't know what the best way to explain this to them would be. However, our Clan has always taken the path of chivalry, no different than Wudang Pai's objective, thus this is not considered a capital crime. But if I am asked to do this unfilial thing, defying my elders, I do not dare to accept.”

”Xiongdi,” Chen Youliang said, ”You have not given this a careful thought. In order to accomplish a great undertaking, we should not be bothered by trivial matters. The people of old sacrificed their loved ones for the sake of great justice, it happened many times in history; let alone our objective is to deal with the Devil Cult. Capturing the various Wudang heroes is nothing more than a way to gain control over that pervert little thief Zhang Wuji. When the Six Major Sects besieged the Devil Cult, didn't Wudang Pai also come in full force?”

”If I do this,” Song Qingshu said, ”First, my conscience is uneasy. Second, tens of thousands Jianghu people will spit in contempt over me; how can I still have a face to stand on the earth?”
