"Want to bite me?"

Faced with Ma Daokong's worries, Zhang Yuankong just sneered. To put it mildly, even if it makes the biggest trouble, it is only seven lives. With their identity as the true legend of the dragon and tiger, what can they not afford to bear?

"It's these people who ......"

Squatting down, Zhang Yuankong asked them if there was any place to vote.

"Here, there will be people coming back, you stay...... Will die, or, maybe worse than death. ”

I believe that even if the matter is revealed and the light is seen, the Yisi Ba Xi army will not be able to help themselves, but most of these remnant villagers will inherit those fiery anger.

"If there is a way and a place to go......"

Squatting on the ground, he hesitated for a long time, and in the end, Zhang Yuankong's words made even him startled.

"You guys, find a way, go to the Taiping Road."

When a sentence was spoken, not only Zhang Yuanjin stared at Zhang Yuankong as if he had seen a ghost, but even Carmen and Ma Daokong seemed to be choked by their throats, with strange expressions, but they couldn't speak.

…… Then, they heard someone say, "Okay. ”

Huo Ran turned around, Zhang Yuankong saw that a middle-aged man with a heavy expression walked over, and when he saw him, those villagers with a dull look seemed to have suddenly come to life, and they stood up one after another, crying bitterly and stepped forward.

The middle-aged man comforted these villagers one by one, patiently helping them to regain their calm, and in this process, Zhang Yuankong just stood quietly and watched, not in a hurry. Ma Daokong, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but open his mouth wide from the moment he saw the middle-aged man's appearance, and his whole body was trembling.

In the end, the middle-aged man finally walked up to Zhang Yuankong, looked at him, and said, "Thank you." ”

He added: "I saw a few days ago that they were just capturing the population, and I was relieved for a while, so that it made a big mistake...... Thanks a lot! "The look was extremely sincere.

Zhang Yuankong listened but felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly said: "Big mistake? You mean? But I saw the middle-aged man looking at Ma Daokong, and said, "Ma Daoyou, it's been a long time, it's always good?" ”

Ma Daokong has been trembling since just now, until now, as if he suddenly reacted, jumped three feet high, and said: "You, you are still alive......" As he spoke, he even changed his voice, and said sharply: "Da Zhenren, Sanzhenren, he ...... He is the big boss of Taiping Dao! ”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Just like Zhang Yuankong's previous guess: Han Sha's unintentional fall was actually exactly what happened. The area around Cheonggye-dong has always been the last area for Taiping-do activities around Murong. Long before the Yisi Pa Xi army and Feng Xiang archers entered the mountain, they also discussed whether to retreat the villagers to the deep mountains.

"But first, everyone is inseparable from their homeland after all, and secondly, they always feel that this thing is nothing more than a formality, how can it really be done?"

Therefore, except for the Taiping Dao's own organization retreating into the mountains, the vast majority of the villagers still chose to stay at home, in their minds, over the years, there has been no chaos in the Qingxidong area, although these troops are fierce, they are nothing more than looting property, if people stay at home, at least they can keep their houses and not be burned down, right?

"The result...... That's how it is today. ”

Zhang Yuankong: What they bumped into was just a corner. This morning, the movement patterns of the soldiers who entered the mountains began to change, as long as they encountered the slightest resistance for a long time, they would wantonly slash and kill, and for a while, I don't know how many lives were taken. Realizing that something was wrong, the angry Taiping Daoists reacted. After killing a few groups of soldiers, they began to evacuate the people to the mountain, this middle-aged man is the villagers who came to visit the southern mountains, but they didn't expect that the people of the Yisi Ba Xi army had arrived first, if it weren't for Zhang Yuanjin's bravery, this village is afraid that there is no more than half a living person at this moment.

"So, thank you."

Holding his fists again as a salute, Zhang Yuankong hurriedly returned the salute, but he felt awkward in his heart.

(He's a thief...... The imperial army is remnants, but a thief is trying to save people, and he also thanked us for saving a few people first...... What the hell is this! ）

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

On the way back to Wurong, the atmosphere was very dull, and in the end, it was Zhang Yuankong who broke the silence first.

"You just said 'sure enough'......"

"You seem to have guessed more than we did. Tell me, what the hell is going on? ”

Looking at Carmen, Zhang Yuankong asked.

"I don't want to say it."

After a moment's hesitation, Carmen actually flinched in a rare way.

"I'm not sure I'm right...... And such a severe accusation, without absolute certainty, cannot be said casually. ”

After finishing speaking, Carmen closed her mouth and calmly looked at Zhang Yuankong without any wavering.

"Alas......"

With a long sigh, Zhang Yuankong closed his eyes and leaned back against the wall of the car, from this time on, until the car entered Wurong, he did not speak again.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Will it be?"

After listening to Zhang Yuankong's introduction, Zhang Yuanhe frowned and thought for a long time, but in the end, he didn't say anything.

"I'm going to think about it, I'm going to think about it again......"

seems to have gained, but like Carmen, he hides and refuses to speak, seeing this, Zhang Yuankong is not annoyed: he knows that his junior brother is actually the most cautious by nature, the more important things are, the more he has to think about them repeatedly, and he is not sure that he is nine out of ten, and he will never speak easily.

"What about the city, what's going on these days?"

"Oh, I was about to say that."

After thinking about it carefully, Zhang Yuanhe opened his mouth to analyze, thinking that from now on, those Taiping Dao people will definitely not be able to hide behind the scenes, and if they really come to the front to confront them head-on, even if there are only a dozen or so people, it will be enough to make Wurong City like a great enemy, and at that time, whether it is Yisi Ba Xi Jun or Fengxiang Archer, they will have to mobilize more forces and enter the mountains.

"At that time, senior brother, you said that you want to help suppress the Taiping Dao, and go into the mountain with them."

"Ah, why?"

"Because, I think, the people of the Shenxiao Sect are probably about to launch."

Tell Zhang Yuankong that in recent days, there have been strange rumors in the city, pointing the finger at Zoroastrianism, to the effect that they are secretly attacking Jingjiao, killing its followers and destroying its reputation.

"As for examples...... Big brother, you should remember, right? ”

"What do I remember? Wait, you mean ......"

Frowning, Zhang Yuankong said: "You mean Du Jixiang and Bao Chun?" ”

Zhang Yuanhe nodded and said, "Exactly." His expression was full of admiration.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Du Jixiang is a local businessman in Wurong, and so is Bao Chun. They all had begged for fruit at the immortal tree, and later, Du Jixiang was sought revenge by the Zoroastrian people and died in Hongmen Pass, while Bao Chun was in a hurry at night and lost his footing in the mountains.

"And now, the rumors revolve around the two of them."

There are a lot of rumors, and they have been carefully broken down into a dozen short stories, each of which is condensed to the point where it can be explained in a few sentences, and it will be easy for people to understand. There is a small baggage and a small climax that can leave a deep impression, and when these stories are combined, there is only one layer of meaning:

In order to destroy the reputation of Nestorianism, the Zoroastrians secretly assassinated the believers who had been blessed by the Immortal Tree one by one!

"In the rumors, Du Jixiang did not offend Zoroastrianism at all, his death was deliberate, and Bao Chun was not a mistake, it was completely a murder."

"But what's the use?"

Neither Zhang Yuankong nor Zhang Yuanjin could understand the use of these rumors for the first time to sow discord between Zoroastrianism and Nestorianism? This is consistent with the actions of the sons of Shenxiao after entering Wurong, but what are the benefits?

"Because, this is just the first step."

Zhang Yuanhe believes that this is just the beginning, if his judgment is correct, in a few days, there will be a new round of rumors, at that time, the spearhead will be turned, and the true intentions of the Shenxiao faction will also emerge.

"Now that I think about it, Shenxiao Sect...... Not only did they provoke Zoroastrianism on several occasions deliberately, but even every provocation ended with them suffering a loss. Only then will it be easier for them to turn around in the next step. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Yuanhe hesitated again, and hesitated: "However, there is another problem, if I am not mistaken, then the next step, relying on Li Nayu's identity alone, is not enough, at least Han Taishou has to come forward to turn around, but if you can intervene in this role, in the end...... The relationship between Han Taishou and Yi is destined to coexist...... In the end, what is the offer of the Shenxiao faction, and can you be sure that he will cooperate? ”

"Don't mention it."

Zhang Yuankong asked, in Zhang Yuanhe's opinion, how will the Shenxiao faction be launched next? Why did you leave yourself?

"Because I'm worried that they will use Han Taishou's identity to force us to take a stand."

In Zhang Yuanhe's opinion, everything the Shenxiao Sect has done now is just a layout, and the rumors they really want to spread have not yet begun.

"But it's coming soon, judging from the current momentum, it won't be a few days."

Zhang Yuanhe believes that it won't be long before the sons of Shenxiao will invite Han Sha to come forward--- and there may be other big people in the city who have enough weight to participate in the formal reconciliation with the Zoroastrians, for which they are estimated to pay a certain amount of benefits.

"Then, new, real rumors will explode overnight."

"At that time, we absolutely couldn't get around it, and we absolutely had to show our attitude, but at the same time, we, 'Longhu Mountain', absolutely couldn't take a stand on this matter."

Therefore, Zhang Yuanhe hoped that Zhang Yuankong would enter the mountain again and stay there by himself, so that he could attack and retreat.

"I'll deal with it first, and then when the time comes, you come back and scold me in public, and the matter will be revealed."

"But what the hell is that?"

was a little anxious by Zhang Yuanhe's guanzi, Zhang Yuankong asked him, what is the new rumor, the rumor that the Shenxiao faction really wants to spread?

Smiling, showing a somewhat smug look, Zhang Yuanhe said, "Of course...... It's the truth about the undead tree! ”
