I said that I was a little curious, even the dignified Heavenly Sword Xu Kaishan could only be locked up in the second room of Tianzi, and the one imprisoned in the first room must be a great hero who stood up to the sky.

Lao Sun Tou said frankly, this is not true, the prisoner in Tianzi No. 1 room is surnamed Meng, who was the chief catcher of our six doors, and was also a powerful figure back then, but later because of political mistakes, he was imprisoned here, and it has been more than ten years.

I can't help but sigh, throughout the ages, how many heroes and heroes and temple ministers have been imprisoned because of this political mistake!

Coming out of the six doors, I changed my appearance as Jiang Xiaobai again, and the eunuch's costume was also hidden, and there was a dragon and a crouching tiger in the palace, and I didn't plan to go back. Back at the White Tiger Hall, Qi Xiaowei saw me coming back and asked, where have you been in the past few days, why can't I find you?

I asked rhetorically, do we have to commute to and from work on time?

Qi Xiaowei said with a smile, that's not necessary. Why, can't you care about you as a sister?

I casually made up a reason, saying that I had recently met an enemy and almost didn't make it back alive.

Qi Xiaowei was a little angry when she heard this, who is so bold that she dares to argue with our Sihetang in the capital, do you want my sister to make a move? I hurriedly refused, and said in my heart Don't say it's you, the old lady of Jian Wushuang, even Feng Wanli is not her enemy, but she can say this kind of thing, I am very moved in my heart, at least she regards me as her own.

I asked how the church was doing. Qi Xiaowei said happily, in the past few days, the new policy of protection fees you launched has gained a lot, which has made our White Tiger Hall turn around, and I highly recommend you in front of the ninth master. Tomorrow, we will have a meeting in the Quadrangle, and the Ninth Master will discuss the reward for meritorious deeds, and then what do you think about it?

I had something else in my heart and didn't care, Qi Xiaowei noticed it and asked, why are you unhappy?

I said that I had money, and of course I was happy.

Qi Xiaowei didn't suspect anything else, but just persuaded, Xiaobai, from the first time I saw you, I knew that you were a person who did great things. Be a man, the pattern should be high, tomorrow's hall will be an annual event in our Sihetang, the ninth master wants to reward you, you can't simply ask for money.

I wondered, what do you want?

Qi Xiaowei's eyes are shining, power! Although you have been in Beijing for a short time, the ninth master values you, and I am also optimistic about you, if you want to get ahead, you must make good use of all opportunities to pursue the highest power, with power, money, status, women, nothing will be missing. She smiled and said, maybe one day, even my sister will throw her arms on you.

I hurriedly lost the battle and said sister, you can spare me. To me, you're a woman on top of things, and I don't think anything wrong. Qi Xiaowei said, you dislike your sister Pu Liu's posture.

I hurriedly shook my head and said Sister, you are a human being, and I can't even admire it.

Qi Xiaowei sighed, to be honest, sometimes I don't know what I want. When I was a child, my family was poor and I couldn't even eat, but later I followed the ninth master to fight the world, and I had money, power, and status, and I always felt that I lacked something.

I listened silently, and she suddenly asked, do you think my sister is a lewd person?

I said, how do you have that thought?

Qi Xiaowei said, I know that others are talking about me outside, saying that I am a water-based Yanghua, and some people say that I am the woman of the Ninth Master.

I said it doesn't matter, you have to be yourself, and it doesn't matter what other people say about you.

Qi Xiaowei said yes, there were people who once laughed at me in front of the Sihetang Internal Affairs Association, but I have already killed them. I had a cold shudder in my heart, Qi Xiaowei smiled at me, and said that I would rest well and go to the church with me tomorrow.

Back at my accommodation, I couldn't sleep. In fact, I haven't rested much in the past few days, and I have experienced too many lives and deaths, so I don't feel sleepy at all. I was chewing on what Qi Xiaowei said to me, what was the purpose of my life.

When I first came down the mountain, although Ximen Blowing Lantern arranged a task for me, I didn't have any hard requirements. I just want to be able to roam the rivers and lakes, and I don't expect to be famous all over the world, as long as I have a good time on the rivers and lakes.

However, after coming to the Six Gates, he began to be tired of running for his life, escorting Xu Kaishan, serving the Six Gates of Jinling, and getting involved in the dispute between the Netherworld Sect and the Jiangnan Martial Arts, except for going to Haining to find Xu Ruonan, it seems that he has always been busy with the life that others have arranged for me.

The rivers and lakes in my imagination, doing chivalrous deeds, robbing the rich and helping the poor, walking the rivers and lakes, eating meat, drinking wine in large bowls, but the experience of more than a year is that it is a fly camp dog, tired of running for life, and it seems to be very successful in the eyes of others, but it is not the life I want.

Nowadays, I always feel that I am stuck in a quagmire, and the people and things I come into contact with seem to be arranged by others, which makes me feel very helpless. Only when I am with Xu Ruonan can I get a moment of relaxation, and when I interact with her, I can feel that I am an ordinary person.

Xu Ruonan said that after a year, he would come to me.

But now the Netherworld God Cult has launched a crazy revenge on the sect of the Battle of Fengyun Island, setting off a bloody storm on the rivers and lakes. The two immortals traveled all the way west, killing all the way, and even Xiaosheng couldn't get used to it, so he posted an article in the latest issue to crusade against this atrocity.

However, after the Battle of Fengyun Island, the Wulin League also fell into silence, the Xie family rose, and the entire Jiangnan martial arts reshuffled, while the transcendent sects of Shaolin and Wudang ignored the rise of the Netherworld, and I don't know if the six doors were hit hard a few years ago, or if they reached some kind of tacit understanding between them.

I began to be a little worried, worried that Xu Ruonan and her Netherworld God Sect would get deeper and deeper into the disputes in the rivers and lakes. After the one-year contract expires, will she be able to get out of the struggle between the rivers and lakes? Why don't I gradually participate in the struggle between the rivers and lakes and the temples, and I am inextricably linked with the Hidden Mountain and the struggle for imperial power?

Thinking of this, I secretly decided that since I came to the rivers and lakes to experience it, instead of thinking about retreating, it was better to move forward bravely and make the whole thing clear. Even the West Gate has blown out the lantern, what else can't be done?

The first thing to do is to promise Shen Wushuang the incident, take out the book that led to the destruction of the Shen family, and find the east gate to pull wax.

I got up and changed into a night outfit and went out. With the New Year approaching and curfews not as strict as they used to be, I crossed a few streets to an abandoned mansion in the east of the city. Through the dim starlight, I can vaguely see the two big characters at the door: Shen Mansion.

Before Shen Zhengdao's accident, he lived in the household department, and his family was rich enough to rival the country, but he didn't expect that his mansion was so ordinary. Before Shen Zhengdao's accident, he was in the second grade, the mansion was five rooms and nine frames, and the gate could enter and exit the eight-lift sedan chair, but this abandoned mansion looked no different from ordinary people's homes.

At the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Taizu established a strict hierarchy system, how wide the gate could be built by several officials, and people of different identities wore clothes of different materials, otherwise it would be illegal and transgressive. However, up to now, the implementation has long been not strict, and the doors of Zhang Youqian's businessmen are all magnificent.

The true essence in the sea of stars spreads like spider silk.

I couldn't help but sweat coldly at this temptation. Just inside the Shen Mansion, I sensed that there were three or four martial arts masters lurking in it, I don't know if they were from the rivers and lakes, or sent from the palace, and these three or four people's martial arts were all above the Zhixuan Realm. If it weren't for the fact that the True Yuan in my body had been strengthened in the Shocking Array, I am afraid that if I rushed in, the consequences would be very likely to fall into a heavy siege.

After much thought, I retreated.

Early the next morning, when he came to the White Tiger Hall, Shan Mu's face was blue and swollen, and he was instructing people to post Spring Festival couplets and protect the new deal of fees, his status in the White Tiger Hall rose to the top, and he had enough confidence to speak. It's just that the words of this Spring Festival couplet are really unsightly, and the left and right couplets have also been overturned.

The upper link is: the first loss of love in the human world, and the lower link: the heavenly palace immortal Ban Duo Shanren. Horizontal batch: immortal

I couldn't help but scold, where did you get the couplet?

Shan Mu Yileng, said that yesterday there was a show in the Zhushikou stall to sell couplets, I thought about the New Year's promotion, the protection fee gave him a 20% discount, he gave me a few couplets. How about it, are we getting more and more popular with the people? As the saying goes, those who win the hearts of the people win the world.

I said okay, don't show off your style.

Shan Mu asked, what, is there a problem with the couplet?

I said that you want to stick it to the house, and I guess your parents will beat you so much that they don't even know you in the mirror.

Shan Mu pointed to his fat face and said, you know this?

I said forget it, let him find red paper and pen, and with a stroke of the pen, he wrote a few Spring Festival couplets in cursive of Sun Guoting's calligraphy. You must know that I was robbing the Holy Gate back then, and I personally arranged the Spring Festival couplets for the New Year, and I also won the seventh place in the second Spring Festival Couplets Competition of the Holy Gate.

According to the rules of the Sihe Hall, today, the hall masters, deputy hall masters, assistant and above of the four and outer eight halls must attend the church meeting, and after the main hall meeting, each branch hall will come back to hold its own church meeting.

The congregation is the most important meeting of the year in the Sihetang, and the teams of each branch hall gather together to listen to the lecture of the main hall, comment on the work achievements of the past year, and issue the work goals for the next year.

Qi Xiaowei hasn't arrived yet, and the deputy hall master Li Laohu didn't know when he arrived, and when he saw the couplet I wrote, he smiled and said, I didn't expect Brother Jiang's handwriting to be so good, even if you don't mix in Sihetang, I believe that you can make a difference in the stall in Zhushikou.

According to Shan Mu, Li Laohu is the elder of the Sihe Hall, the oldest in the White Tiger Hall, and he is quite capable, and he almost became the hall master a few times, but Zhao Jiuye doesn't like him very much, he is fifty years old, and he will retire in a few years, but he has never been able to enter the core of the Sihe Hall. This Li Laohu has a lot of opinions about Qi Xiaowei, and of course it is not pleasing to me.

I said that Deputy Hall Master Li has won the award, and I don't dare to say anything else, your family has to have a white matter, open your mouth as soon as possible, I will write it to you overnight, not only that, but I also bought a full set and wrote the couplets of your whole family in advance.

Li Laohu was choked by me, and said in a deep voice, see how long you can jump!
