On the eastern side of the Liaodong Peninsula, there are a large number of islands with a large area that are collectively known as the Changshan Islands, and Hiroshima Island is the largest of them. It is only more than 20 miles from the land, with an area of more than 30 square kilometers and fresh water. With more than 160 households and more than 700 people on the island, it is a self-sufficient area.

The 'revolutionary army' swept across the Liaodong Peninsula and carried out an extremely cruel policy of extermination against the gentry in the four prefectures of Haigai and Fujin. Whenever he encounters resistance, Zhou Qingfeng will mobilize a large army to attack, and will never give the opponent any chance to get lucky. So much so that the resistance forces on the peninsula are either fleeing or hibernating.

The surviving gentry had to huddle each other to keep warm, and they could naturally live better if they fled to Tianjin and Shandong, and many people could only take refuge on the islands and wait for an opportunity to counterattack.

There are still a lot of Ming troops left on Guanglu Island, and the island will be the general Hu Kebin. This person originally stayed comfortably on his own territory and lived a life of hardship and happiness, but suddenly one day he received a promotion from the Ministry of War - Hu turned the general into Hu guerrilla, responsible for commanding all the soldiers and civilians on the east side of the Liaodong Peninsula to exterminate the anti-thief 'revolutionary army'.

Hu Kebin was puzzled by this, and only after asking the people who came to deliver the decree did he know that the feelings of the Liaodong Peninsula had changed, and the four states of Haigai and Fujin had fallen into the hands of thieves. Only then did Hu Guerrilla sigh with emotion: I said that recently many gentlemen who had fled from the mainland came to Mao for Mao, and asked them all that they had encountered robbers. Now I know that this thief is so strong!

He was promoted to a guerrilla, but he was promoted but he was not given money, and his lip service was not enough, so Hu Guerrilla was not interested in counterattacking. But then more and more gentry fled from the mainland, and there were all four states of Haigai and Fujin. The gentry who can escape from the pursuit of the 'revolutionary army' have some ability, and many of them have quite a high level of cultivation.

And the next people to Guanglu Island were even more chaotic, and the White Lotus Sect, which was entrenched in Shandong, even sent people to the island. One day, an old man with a white beard and hair who looked like a fairy wind and bones actually claimed to be Xu Hongru, the head of the White Lotus Sect, and appeared in front of Hu Kebin with seven or eight capable disciples.

White Lotus Sect?

Hu Guerrilla was really stunned, no matter how lonely he was, he knew that this White Lotus Sect had dealt with Zhu Hongwu back then. The two sides have been in trouble for more than 200 years, and Shandong is still the territory of the White Lotus Sect. The imperial court strictly ordered to crack down on this cult, but who knew that people actually took out the waist card of Dongchang, saying that they wanted to 'help the bright and destroy the thieves and protect the family and defend the country'.

Seeing the decree issued by Dongchang and the Ministry of War at the same time, Hu Guerrilla could only pinch his nose and admit it. And then it's not just the White Lotus Sect, what Jindan Dao, the Red Gun Society, the Wupan Sect, and so on. These local sects and the gentry who fled from the mainland eventually became 'three sects and five factions, nine poles and eighteen branches', and there was even a group of pirates among them.

What gold, wood, water, fire and earth, what scripture master, meeting head, hall master, altar master, incense head, what is the real person who opens the way, what is the real person who guides the way, what is the real person who leads the way, what kind of person is the miasma, what is the name. Shandong, Zhili, Liaodong, Liaoxi, all over the place.

Hu Guerrilla felt that his good Guanglu Island had become a ghost cave, and within a few days on the island, the demons danced wildly, tossing him and crying bitterly. However, when these people came, they were all like uncles, known as the heroes of the world, gathered together to fight against the thieves and help Zhu Ming.

When he asked him a little deeper, he learned that these people were all encouraged by Ma Keshi Ma Gonggong of Dongchang and set out from all over the country to gather here. It is said that Ma Gonggong has already issued a reward, killing the thief Zhou Qingfeng 10,000 taels, the rest of the leaders 5,000, again 3,000, 1,000, 500.

A large group of heroes who want to get rich are here.

Among these people, there is no doubt that the White Lotus Sect is the most famous, and everyone has elected the head of the sect, Xu Hongru, as the leader, to command the hundreds of people on the island. Most of these people are ordinary brave and ruthless people, and those with cultivation are in their early 100s, and less than 20 of them are really powerful, and most of them are Xu Hongru's disciples.

With such a large group of social miscellaneous people on the island, the people of Hiroshima were completely affected. Within a few days, dozens of fights took place, killing and wounding more than a dozen people. Many good men had nothing to do, plundered everywhere, and even the family members of Hu Guerrilla did not let go. However, Hu Guerrilla couldn't defeat these people, and even the food hoarded at home was robbed several times.

In the end, Xu Hongru had to come forward to kill a few of the most scoundrel heroes before he set some rules on the island. It's just that there are more than 1,000 people on the island now, and there is no supply outside and no production inside, so if it goes on like this, it can only drink the northwest wind. Hu Kebin also couldn't wait to bombard these bad ghosts, so he gathered some ships to send the heroes who wanted to get rich and become famous to the mainland.

As for whether those guys live or die, Hu guerrilla doesn't care.

After all the heroes went to find trouble with the 'revolutionary army', Xu Hongru did not leave, but stayed on the island to 'plan the overall situation'. This old man has a fairy wind and a kind face, which makes Hu Guerrilla feel like a master in the world. In addition, the White Lotus Sect spread all kinds of incredible myths among the people, which also made Hu Guerrilla quite afraid.

On this day, Xu Hongru was telling the fortune of Hu Guerrilla, and suddenly his brows tightened, and he grabbed seven or eight wooden cards from the pocket on his waist. Hu Guerrilla peeked and saw that one of the wooden cards had been picked out, and the name written on the card was slowly fading and disappearing.

"What does that mean?" Hu Guerrilla asked.

Xu Hongru frowned, and said in a deep voice: "This is the soul card of my four disciples, he is dead." ”

Hu Guerrilla looked curious, but he didn't understand what it meant behind it. He only saw eight soul cards in Xu Hongru's hand, and only seven were left when he died. Obviously, the dead 'four apprentices' are quite important.

Xu Hongru pondered for a while and said: "I have studied art in the four apprentices for many years, and my skills are strong, and ordinary people are not his opponents. Two days ago, he was still communicating with me, but today he is gone. I also discovered that the 'revolutionary army' occupying the four guards in Liaodong was not an ordinary rogue, but a strong enemy who wanted to take root. Its thief Zhou Qingfeng is known as the first in the world, and he also has some skills. ”

Hu Guerrilla sneered: "The invasion of the four guards of Haigai and Fujin in the tenth month made the court helpless, not only do these thieves have some skills, but they are naturally highly skilled." The military department ordered me to go ashore to suppress it, so I didn't go. Ma Gonggong of Dongchang sent a bunch of cows, ghosts, snakes and gods to kill the murderer, isn't this a fool's dream? ”

In the end, Hu Guerrilla suddenly woke up to the fact that the Xu sect leader in front of him was also the 'bull ghost snake god' sent by Ma Gonggong, and immediately stopped talking.

Xu Hongru didn't seem to hear it, he slowly put away the wooden card, got up and said: "The apprentice is dead, and I, as a master, can't be indifferent." It's useless to stay on this island at the moment, and I asked Hu Guerrilla to help me prepare a boat, and Xu had to land and run. See who killed my disciples? ”

"What if Zhou Qingfeng, the number one in the world, kills you?"

"Then I will share life and death with him."

Xu Hongru said to go, took a boat, and went into the sea without a trace.

Hu Guerrilla watched the other party leave, stood on the beach and sneered: "This White Lotus Sect has always hidden its head and tail, secretly making sneaky people, when will you dare to share life and death with others?" I don't know what the old man has in mind. It's just that if these guys make a big fuss, I'm afraid that the 'revolutionary army' will come back to find my bad luck, what can I do? ”

Xu Hongru took a fishing boat and landed with two boys. Since the control of the entire Liaodong Peninsula by the 'revolutionary army' is mainly concentrated in the cities, the rural areas are still in a state of random inspection due to the lack of cadres. After Xu Hongru went ashore, he changed his attire, pretending to be a fleeing old man and taking his two children to the southwest of Jinzhou.

Hiroshima is not far from Jinzhou, and the distance in a straight line after going ashore is only sixty or seventy miles. It's just that the closer you get to the city, the more severe the road checks become. Xu Hongru relied on his own cultivation to be profound, concealed the militia who set up cards on the road, and arrived at a village called Liujiadian 20 miles away from Jinzhou City after a day and a night.

It was already dark outside the village, Xu Hongru took out the soul card from his pocket and flicked it on one of the cards. A seventeen or eighteen-year-old young student in Liujiadian Village held his head in pain, knowing that it was the master who was calling him. This later life used the excuse of going to the toilet, quietly came out of the village, and found Xu Hongru outside the village.

When the master and apprentice met, the latter first bowed down and kowtowed, and then asked, "What is the master's command to summon the apprentice?" ”

In the dark night, Xu Hongru was full of gloom. Standing under a dead tree, he asked the offspring who was kneeling on the ground, "Your fourth senior brother is dead, do you know?" ”

Hou Sheng hurriedly raised his head in shock, "After the disciple mixed into this 'revolutionary army', he was tired every day, and he hadn't seen other senior brothers for many days, let alone what happened to the fourth senior brother. ”

"How many days do you contact the other senior brothers?"

"It is as short as five or six days, and as long as it is more than half a month. This 'revolutionary army' is extremely strict in its management, and it has not even eaten if it has not finished its work. Recently, the disciples have been trying to make good friends with the village officials in this village, but the 'revolutionary army' often sends cadres to the countryside to inspect and count the roster. If they find something suspicious, they will investigate it thoroughly, so the village official does not dare to let me go at will. ”

This 'revolutionary army' is really hateful!

Except for the Qianshan Mountains in the center, the rest of the Liaodong Peninsula has flat terrain and good road conditions. In addition, in the current war period, the 'revolutionary army' attaches great importance to the control of the locality. Not to mention the grassroots cadres conducting inspections, even Zhou Qingfeng sometimes feels bad sleep because he is worried about being infiltrated, and he will personally ride a giant wolf around to see if there is any suspicious situation in the place.

"Do you have a place to stay for your teacher?"

"Master, you don't have an ID card. If the village officials find that outsiders are coming, they will definitely investigate. It's useless for you to buy him, and the people in the village will report it when they see outsiders appearing. This 'revolutionary army' is extremely unruly among the people, and often engages in 'anti-intermediate, anti-special' activities, and will report any abnormalities. ”

Xu Hongru was furious when he heard this, and he asked again: "I sent you here for the teacher, didn't you accomplish anything?" ”

The offspring who knelt on the ground was startled, and hurriedly said: "The second senior brother has mixed into Jinzhou City, and it is said that he has become a civil servant, and his status is not low. A few days ago, when I secretly went to see him, he said that he was working with the fourth senior brother to assassinate important members of the 'revolutionary army' and mess up his position. But he didn't want the fourth senior brother to die.

If the master wants to settle down, he will either go to find the second senior brother or the fifth senior sister. The fifth senior sister is good at seducing men, and it is said that she has achieved something. She is the most charming in her descent at the smoke shop, whether it is to assassinate the important members of the 'revolutionary army' or to settle down, it is the easiest to settle. ”

Xu Hongru pondered for a while, but shook his head slightly, "Fan Wan'er's cheap maid is just afraid that something will happen to her." ”
