Li Qi and the others stopped when they arrived at a place seven or eight miles away from Linbing County, and further on, there was a flat river, without any obstacles.

If there are lookouts on the walls of Linbing County, you can see them coming along the official road.

And there is a village three or four miles away from the county seat, the scale is not large, but the official road just passes through the village.

According to Liu Tiedan, now the remaining people in the village are already believers in Tanglin Dao, so they may be surrounded as soon as they enter the village.

With the strength of Li Qi's team, although there are only about 40 people in total, it is impossible for them to be surrounded by the villagers.

However, in that case, they will kill people.

"I'll go."

Yu Jiuling said: "I'll go alone, bypass the village, if I can enter the city, I'll go in and investigate, there are too many people, the goal is too big." ”

Li Qi was just about to speak, Peng Seventeen said: "I'll go with Yu Jiuling, I know more about the Daomen, and if I am discovered, I may not be able to get through the trick." ”

So the two men left the team, bypassing the village in front of them and approaching the county seat, and Li Qi and they found a more secret place to stop and wait.

There was a high slope nearby, Li Qi squatted on the high slope and watched it with clairvoyance, he was still very worried about Yu Jiuling and them.

If the people of this place had really fallen into demons, and they saw outsiders coming, they would do anything.

Linbing County, the county seat, the county office.

A group of people wearing gray Taoist robes came in and out, and their Taoist robes were not the same as those of the Orthodox Dao Sect, and they looked a little demonic.

These people are the so-called apologetics of Tanglin Dao, and they have a very strange temperament, giving people an eerie feeling.

Maybe it's because they've been lying for too long, or maybe it's because the atmosphere has arrived, so even these people feel like they're amazing, and they really have magical powers.

They walk with a very high posture, and the eyes of the people are also the feeling of looking down on all beings.

It seems that once the name of God is applied, everyone feels that they have been far beyond the crowd.

In the county office, there was a man in a red Taoist robe sitting there drinking, quite lazy, and the so-called divine soldiers who came in and out were all afraid when they saw her.

Nowadays, this Tanglin Road is also considered to be highly hierarchical, and from their clothing, you can judge what the level is.

That Tanglin Daoist issued a decree to delineate the ranks.

The Guardian Priest wears a gray robe, and the Little Priest wears a blue robe, and the Minor Priest can develop the cult members at will, or he can levy the Divine Soldier, and how many people he develops depends on his own ability.

The one wearing the red robe is called the great priest, and there are only five people in total, and in each county, there is a so-called red-robed great priest.

Further up is the purple robe divine envoy, there are only two divine envoys in the entire Tanglin Road, and the status of the divine envoy is equal to the palm sect in the Tanglin Dao, and is called the left and right divine envoys.

The head of the sect wears a black robe, and like the oracle, he shows his head at first, and later in order to maintain his sense of mystery, he will wear a hat to cover his veil when he travels.

This red-robed chief priest in Linbing County was none other than the one who fled from Li Qi and them.

The master is the West Fence, and one of the purple-robed divine envoys is Fang Yuzhou, the master of Qi Nan, and this Tanglin Dao is what Fang Yuzhou came up with.

Fang Yuzhou made a living from this in Saibei, he knew that it was best to fool the people in troubled times, and the more chaotic they were, the more convinced the people were of the gods and ghosts.

In the beginning, the meaning of the West Fence was to develop like other bands of horse thieves, sustained by raiding.

But Fang Yuzhou felt that it was not good, in that case, no matter how good the development was, it would be impossible to quickly have a lot of soldiers and horses in a short period of time, but it was just a group of grass bandits.

After he came up with this method, Xilizi decided to give it a try, who would have thought that the expansion speed of Tanglin Road would be so fast.

In just over half a year, within the scope of the five counties, they are now all believers in Tanglin Dao, and now even the western fence has become inflated.

The Yanshan Battalion has developed for so many years, and at its most glorious time, it had 200,000 soldiers, but it only took him half a year to develop hundreds of thousands of believers.

This method is indeed more effective than being a horse thief.

And it feels different, if you are a big horse thief, the people are naturally afraid, but they are resistant.

When you become a master, the people will even prostrate on the ground to worship when they see you, which makes the West Fence obsessed.

Now that he was traveling, he had assumed the position of a teacher, sitting on a throne carried by sixteen men, and he was receiving worship, and he felt more and more that he was the chosen one.

It was also a coincidence that Fang Yuzhou and Que Nan and the others met the defeated team of Xilizi, but they met like this, and they quickly mixed together.

Fang Yuzhou said to Xilizi that in this way, within two years, within these dozens of counties in the northwest, they would be able to develop millions of believers.

This kind of thing is beautiful when you think about it.

The status of people has changed suddenly, and their personalities will also change, they are already ruthless people, and in order to maintain their status, they are even more ruthless.

Since he fled, Quenan's personality has become more and more violent, and he has become a great priest in Linbing County, and he orders to peel and cramp when he sees who is not pleasing to the eye.

In this place, she is like the Emperor of the Earth.

"Lord Priest."

A little blue-robed priest walked in briskly from outside, bowed down, and handed a letter to Que Nan with both hands: "Just now the head of the sect sent someone to deliver the letter." ”

The drunken Que Nan took the letter, opened it and read it, and then raised the corners of his eyebrows: "What kind of thing is the West Fence?" How dare you talk to me in such a tone? If it weren't for my master's help, he would still be a gang of rogues now. ”

When she had finished scolding, she threw the letter into the brazier next to her.

Xilizi sent a letter to her, telling her to rush to Tanglin Mountain in three days, and if there was any delay, she would be punished according to the canon.

"I'm afraid he's crazy."

Que Nan was still talking to herself: "I really think I am in charge...... There are so many deceiving people, even fucking yourself. ”

Que Nan took a sip and instructed his subordinates: "Is the messenger gone?" Before leaving, I told him, let him go back and say to Xilizi, I am not free, just these three words, tell the truth! ”

The subordinates were so frightened that their faces turned pale, and Que Nan had no respect for the Sect Leader, that was her business, but the subordinates didn't dare.

How ruthless is the West Fence killing?

And now that there are more people under Xi Lizi, the more he is afraid that others will rob him of his position, especially after the incident of the Yanshan camp, he is particularly afraid of this kind of thing.

The more scared and worried, the more you want to show your status, so the more you have a stronger attitude towards the people below.

He didn't care about it except for what he didn't dare to do to the two people who left and right the gods, and of course, he didn't dare to do anything to those two people, and it was only on the surface.

What Xi Lizi wanted to do most was to get rid of Fang Yuzhou...... He felt that the only one who could threaten his position was Fang Yuzhou.

This Tanglin Dao was conceived by Fang Yuzhou, and when developing disciples, it was also Fang Yuzhou who contributed the most.

The things that pretend to be gods and ghosts are all done by Fang Yuzhou, and in the hearts of the people, the status of the divine envoy is very high.

And he, the head of the sect, because he has to remain mysterious at all times, is not familiar to the people.

If Fang Yuzhou killed him, Tanglin Dao would develop in the same way, and the people didn't know that the sect leader was dead.

It was precisely because he was afraid of this that he felt that he had learned the development method of Tanglin Dao, so he wanted to get rid of Fang Yuzhou.

This time, he sent someone to let Que Nan return to Tanglin Mountain, just to find an opportunity to catch Fang Yuzhou and the others.

However, he didn't take Quenan in his eyes, and Quenan's contempt for him was even heavier, in Chenan's opinion, without her master, Xilizi was not even a fart.

At the same time, Tanglin Mountain.

Xilizi and Fang Yuzhou raised manpower and built a large number of buildings in Tanglin Mountain, and it took only four months to build a large hall, and in front of the main hall, a high altar was also built.

The appearance is very sufficient, because they all know that the more the appearance is done, the more convinced the people are.

Xi Lizi sat on the main hall, his fingers gently caressing the armrest of the chair, and sitting here made him feel like an emperor.

He even thought that the emperor would probably look the same way when he sat on the Jinluan Palace.

High up, overlooking all beings.

No wonder everyone wants to be an emperor, this feeling is really amazing, as if you can control the life and death of countless people with a single hand.

He squinted his eyes and asked, "Is it all arranged?" ”

The subordinates replied: "Back to the head of the sect, it is all arranged, and there are archers in ambush in the two corridors, as long as the two divine envoys come in, they will be killed by arrows." ”

Xi Lizi exhaled slowly, thinking that such an achievement and such a status could not fall into the hands of others.

If he had directly killed Jinjia and Zhuang Invincible as soon as he returned to the Yanshan Camp, he would now be the big boss of the Yanshan Camp.

He felt that he was not decisive enough, and this time, he couldn't be decisive.

Those believers fear the oracle more than they fear him, the head of the sect, and in the long run, he fears that he is a puppet.

At that moment, someone outside shouted, "God has sent your lord into the temple!" ”

The two purple-robed divine envoys strode in, and when they saw the two of them, Xi Lizi's eyes narrowed slightly.

He pretended to get up and said with a smile: "The two of you have returned from a long journey, and it has been hard. ”

Zuo Shen made Fang Yuzhou take off his mask and smiled: "It is our duty to serve the master of the sect, and it is not hard. ”

Xi Lizi looked left and right, and then said loudly: "Come on, give tea to the two gods!" ”

This is the agreed code, as soon as he shouts this sentence, the archers in ambush on both sides will fire crossbow arrows in unison.

But no.

Xi Lizi's face changed, and he was about to shout, when a sharp pain suddenly came from his lower back.

Behind him, the cronie who had just been talking to him stabbed him in the back, his hand still twisting back and forth.

That subordinate was his old subordinate in the Yanshan camp, and he was a close confidant, so Xi Lizi didn't believe that this would be the case.

"You...... How dare you do that! ”

Xi Lizi turned his head hard, and asked in a mournful voice.

Fang Yuzhou walked on the high platform, faced the West Fence and said with a smile: "In this world, there is no one whose interests cannot be controlled, if there is, it is that the interests are not enough." ”

He looked into Xi Lizi's eyes and said word by word: "You treat them like dogs, always guarding against others harming you, and thinking that they are loyal to you?" I promised him, kill you, he is a divine messenger, who do you say he will help? ”

He stretched out his hand and took off the golden crown of the palm sect on the head of the west fence, turned around and handed it to the right priest who came up behind him.

The right envoy took the golden crown, pulled a piece of metal from the length of the golden crown, and swept it with his fingers, cutting off the throat of the western fence.

The corpse rolled down the steps from the high platform, and everywhere it passed, there were blood stains.

Fang Yuzhou made a gesture of please: "Now you are in charge." ”

The right envoy took off his mask, put on the golden crown of the Palm Sect, hung up the veil, and slowly sat down on the throne.

He looked at the cronie in the west fence and asked, "What's your name?" ”

The cronie hurriedly replied: "Hui Zhangjiao Lord, the little one is called Wang Qihai." ”

The new Sect Leader pointed to the corpse of the West Fence and said, "He is Wang Qihai, he was sent out by the Master of the Sect to travel far away, and he will not come back for a long, long time. ”

After finishing speaking, he handed the mask of the Right Divine Envoy to Wang Qihai: "You are now the Right Divine Envoy." ”

Wang Qihai was overjoyed and bowed down.

Fang Yuzhou said with a smile: "There are always people who think that they are very smart, isn't it good to be a puppet obediently?" ”

The new Sect Leader sitting on the throne raised his head and glanced at Fang Yuzhou, Fang Yuzhou hurriedly leaned over and said, "Master Sect Master, I'm talking about a guy like Xilizi, I am loyal to you and swear to follow you to the death." ”
