Chapter 40: The Bloody Alliance
In Zhuji County, Jiang Qianliang and Fan Xiancheng were arranged in a separate room and gave the two of them some clear soup and little water, which was already VIP treatment for the affected county.
Jiang Qianliang looked at the crystal clear soup bowl, and remembered the child he saw on the road tonight, the child crying alone on the cold street, his whole heart was pinched together, and he felt that the soup in his hand could not be swallowed.
He thought that if he went out and fed this bowl of soup to the baby now, maybe he would survive, but there were some men in white guarding the door, and they couldn't get out at all.
It was the first time that Jiang Qianliang had such a deep sense of powerlessness. The kind of people who have a life in front of you, and who not only watch their lives pass away, but also prevent others from lending a helping hand.
Jiang Qianliang smashed his fist on the ground, and his knuckles were broken and a lot of blood was shed.
Fan Xiancheng looked at him like this, and he was also distressed. The children who took them out of the house, who knew that they would encounter this one, and now life and death are not stable, and they have seen the ugliness of these worlds.
Xiaobai knew at a glance that he was well protected when he was a child, and he had never seen the hardships of these low-level lives who had to struggle to survive. Fan Xiancheng also blamed himself, his daughter clearly said that she would protect him, and sighed deeply.
Tear him a piece of clothing and wrap his fist.
He said: "Just now I saw the county order of Zhuji, it was the middle-aged man who knelt on the ground and was beaten like a pig's head when we entered the inner hall. ”
The anger in Jiang Qianliang's eyes darkened, and he looked at Fan Xiancheng calmly, now every piece of information is crucial.
"So, you knew each other before."
"Well, the name of the county magistrate of Zhuji is Ge Tongzhou, and he has been a county magistrate in Hangzhou for a period of time, and he has a very good relationship with me. It was Zhuji that I just came here in the past two years, but I really didn't expect it to become like this. ”
Jiang Qianliang stood up and walked around the hall twice, pondering.
If this is the case, then this cult is definitely not so simple.
When he was in the hall just now, not only did the county commander of Zhuji kneel in front of that "young master", but even the so-called leader of the White Lotus Sect groveled to him.
It shows that this "young master" should be the force behind it, or the representative of the force. Think about it again, if you can make a county order kneel, this "young master" must also have some weight in the court.
But how could Jiang Qianliang not have seen it. The person who can stir up such a big storm must have a connection with the people in the court.
Why didn't he have any thoughts, Jiang Qianliang kept touching his head and walked around the hall anxiously.
Fan Xiancheng said in a low and serious voice, "Xiaobai, sit down, you are walking around and easily arousing suspicion." ”
finally persuaded Jiang Qianliang to lie down. However, I didn't sleep well all night, trying to clear my thoughts, but it became more and more chaotic, and I didn't see the sun gradually revealing some light, and Jiang Qianliang squinted slightly for a while.
Fan Xiancheng went to bring in the two bowls of porridge from the door in the morning, and cautiously called Jiang Qianliang up. He knew that the child hadn't slept well last night, and when he opened his eyes several times, he saw that his eyes were looking straight at the wall.
This kid's mind is too heavy, and he also wants Jiang Qianliang to sleep a little longer, but the situation really doesn't allow it, they are now in the same danger as in the wolf's den.
Jiang Qianliang opened his eyes in a daze, and first looked at the surrounding environment, unfamiliarly stunned for a moment. Seeing Fan Xiancheng serving the porridge in front of him, he came back to his senses.
Fan Xiancheng lowered his voice and told him, "Today, I will try my best to get in touch with my brother Ge and ask what happened to Zhuji to become the ghost it is now." ”
"Especially you," Fan Xiancheng put his hand on Jiang Qianliang's shoulder uneasily, "Don't worry, let's take a step and see one step at a time." ”
"The most important thing is that we have to get out of here first, it's too dangerous here."
"As long as you can tell the people outside about the situation here, everything will be solved. Okay, trust me. ”
Fan Xiancheng looked straight at Jiang Qian's bright eyes.
Jiang Qianliang also lowered his head and thought about it carefully, "Okay, uncle, I'll listen to you." He finally suppressed his youthful and impetuous energy, showing his calm appearance.
"Then you should try to establish contact with the people in the city as much as possible." Fan Xiancheng turned back to him while wearing his outer clothes, "Even if I get in touch with Brother Ge, I'm not sure if I can fully trust him. ”
"Yesterday I saw him beaten like that, and it's very likely that he won't trust us anymore."
"Okay, I'll try as much as I can." Jiang Qianliang also put on the clothes on the outside.
The two of them opened the door and happened to meet the sect leader from yesterday walking towards them with a red face.
"I read the booklet you remembered yesterday, and it was very detailed and careful."
In fact, what kind of account book does he read in a play, it was his young master who told him that this book is very good after acting yesterday.
But since the young master of his family likes it, he naturally likes it too.
"I don't know if you two have any thoughts of joining the White Lotus Sect, although the ritual may be a little more troublesome, but the gods will bless you with a healthy passage through this disaster."
The two of them thought to themselves, what the sect leader said was good. Actually, it's not blackmail. At the moment of the disaster, only the White Lotus Sect has food in the entire county town of Zhuji, doesn't this mean that if you don't want to join the White Lotus Sect, you will starve to death?
However, Jiang Qianliang and Fan Xiancheng originally planned to get more into the core of this cult and try to find out how it works.
Naturally, he agreed, "Thank you, sect leader." The two replied in unison.
Qinglian hurriedly lifted them up, "In the future, we will have to rely on your help to make our White Lotus Sect bigger." ”
"Let's go, let's go to the incense hall and celebrate your initiation."
Qinglian took the old and the young, with one arm on one person, and took them to the direction of the original Dezong Temple of the Fuya.
The sect leader gathered all the men in white in the entire mansion, and also changed Jiang Qianliang and Fan Xiancheng into this white dress, embroidering a white lotus on the right placket, which is the teaching uniform of the White Lotus Sect, and only people with a certain status in the sect can wear such clothes.
The sect leader remembered that he hadn't asked the names of the two people, Fan Xiancheng's real name was Fan Jinghui, but as soon as he thought that his real name was too easy to expose, he borrowed his son's name, Fan Xiyan, and Jiang Qianliang were simply called Bai Liang.
The sect leader brought three large bowls, cut his fingers, let the blood drip in the bowls, and handed the dagger to Jiang Qianliang and Fan Xiancheng and motioned for them to do so.
It's all men, and they still have been looking forward to this kind of bloody scene since they were children, and both of them quickly separated themselves and let the blood flow into the bowl.
Qinglian drank it all, and also motioned for the two of them to pick up a big bowl and drink it all.
introduced to the brothers in the hall, "In the future, this young man will be our Bai Junshi, and this older one will be our Fan Junshi, and they will be my right-hand man of the sect leader in the future." ”
Raising his voice, he continued, "Do you understand? ”
The men in white below all shouted in unison, "Understood, understood!" Harley, Harley! ”
The main thing is that Qinglian needs a literate person to help him. In the original troupe, although the first few elders of the White Lotus Sect were formed, these people were all lazy and lazy, relying on their identity as the patriarchs of the White Lotus Sect to do mischief, and even robbed the people's daughters.
Just rely on him, the sect leader, to climb the big tree of the young master, and rely on him for everything. But to put it bluntly, it's not a coaxing drama at most.
Even this initiation ceremony, he learned from the opera he sang before.
These two scholars came out just in time, so that the young master would no longer dislike him for not being illiterate.
