As soon as everyone heard this, they immediately knew that this was not an easy task, although once it succeeded, it would be a great achievement, but the dangers and challenges faced were definitely not small.

It's just that just when everyone was still thinking about it, Kou Zhong took the lead and said, "Why don't you let me go?" ”

"Oh, you're sure!" The person originally selected by Shen Chengping was also Kou Zhong, and now he was happy to see him take the initiative to speak.

"Naturally, there is a grasp, but Master, I am afraid that I alone will not be able to do much of a thing, and I still need you to send more people." Kou Zhong said with a hippie smile, he has been on the street since he was a child, even if he has become calm in the past two years, sometimes he still shows some ruffianism.

"Don't worry, our newly trained group of teenagers in Longhumen also have more than 100 talents, I will give you half, and you will go out for more than half a year, and our Shen Junshi will inevitably be lonely if he stays at the Longhumen headquarters alone, so I will let her go to Bashu with you, how about this!" Shen Chengping said with a smile.

Kou Zhong and Shen Luoyan know the matter in their hearts, and Kou Zhong is worthy of being the protagonist, unlike Xu Shiji, he handles this pretty military master well, so although he is a little shy, Shen Luoyan has no objection to Shen Chengping's arrangement.

After getting rid of Shen Luoyan's side, Shen Chengping turned his gaze to Xu Ziling again, and said: "Xiaoling, Xiao Zhong's task is not simple, and your affairs are not easy, next Zhang Cheng, Mr. Shi and Mr. Xu will sit in the headquarters of Longhumen and deal with affairs, and you will take people to patrol my current territory in Longhumen, clean up the lawlessness, and strengthen our control over the place, are you confident?!" ”

Xu Ziling glanced at Kou Zhong, the two of them have been inseparable for many years, but now it is the first time they have acted separately, but both of them know that sooner or later there will be this, and now Kou Zhong said directly: "Old Xu, you have to work hard, don't be compared to Young Master Ben when the time comes!" ”

"Hmph, you too, I heard that the Bashu forces are complex and there are many masters, don't you run back in the end!" Xu Ziling also said unadmittedly, but both of them could see each other's concern.

After deciding what happened next, Shen Chengping stayed at Pegasus Ranch for another seven or eight days, and then took Wanwan, Yuzhen and Zhenzhen to prepare to return, and there were also some more people in the ranch here, led by Shang Xiuxun himself, in fact, he planned to set up a stronghold in Xiangyang to facilitate contact with Longhumen.

On the official road, there was a lot of smoke and dust, and the sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, trampling on the fragrant soil, it was Shen Chengping and his party, at this time, Shang Xiuxun and Shen Chengping rode side by side, looking at Shen Chengping, who was very leisurely, and couldn't help asking: "If you know that our ranch is united with your Dragon and Tiger Gate today, and you also announced that Li Tianfan died in your hands, why aren't you worried about Wagangzhai at all?" ”

"Why, my beauty owner, aren't you happy to have me, the unjust boss, to help you carry this black cauldron?" Shen Chengping squinted his eyes and said with a smile.

"You person, people are talking to you about business, why do you look like a laissez!" Shang Xiuxun couldn't help glaring at Shen Chengping, but the beauty was slightly angry but with a little coquettishness.

Shen Chengping stared at her with his eyes on the rising and falling peaks of the horses as he hurried, and said with a smile: "Now Li Mi is too busy to take care of himself, Nawa Gangzhai is indeed a lot of momentum now, but the gun shoots the first bird, whether he can withstand the encirclement and suppression of Zhang Xutuo, the fierce general of the Sui army in the near future, is still two words, and where is the ability to provoke our Longhumen, not to mention that even if he succeeds, he is not the big boss of Wagangzhai, this Xiao Qiang starts from within, within three or two years, how to stabilize the interior is also a huge problem, before solving these troubles, Wagangzhai didn't have time to go south, and after three or two years, it wasn't him who came to me, but I went to find him. ”

"Hmph, if you look at it again, I'll gouge out your eyes!" Sensing Shen Chengping's gaze, Shang Xiuxun was ashamed in his heart, and when he saw that he was confident, he was relieved, but he still couldn't help but open his mouth to warn, but it is unknown how effective such a warning without the slightest deterrent effect can be.

The high wall of Xiangyang City is thick, the arrow tower of the city gate is Yue'e, the bell tower and the drum tower are confronted, it is quite imposing, and it has given people a deep impression before entering the city. The rivers next to the Han River meet here, and it is really an important place for transportation. Although the city walls still have faint traces of the fighting of a few months ago, they have also returned to prosperity.

Everyone rushed to Xiangyang at dusk, and finally rushed before the city gate was closed, in order to see the actual situation in Xiangyang, and it was only passing by, Shen Chengping did not alarm the local Longhumen.

"The liveliness of Xiangyang is not bad at all compared to Yangzhou!" Zhenzhen looked at the pedestrians on the street: "It's just that compared to Yangzhou, I always feel that the people here are a little more cringe." ”

"Xiangyang is just set in the end, it is not as stable as Yangzhou has been stable for several years, and it is not surprising that the people here are cautious!" Wanwan said directly, she and Shen Chengping grew up together, and naturally learned a lot from him, and also had some experience in the development of forces.

Although I am accustomed to seeing the prosperity of Yangzhou, but Xiangyang is to Shen Chengping and others have another feeling: stepping on the street that runs through the north and south city gates, it is the moment when the lights are on at the beginning, the archway pavilions that stand across the street are endless, the shops on both sides are numerous, the long street is quaint, the houses are lined up one after another, the people and vehicles on the road come and go, a peaceful and lively scene.

"There's no sinister feeling of the smoke outside!" Shang Xiuxun said, Shen Chengping walked beside her, looking around with interest, but saw that there were patrol members wearing Longhumen military uniforms on the street from time to time, and they focused on those people in the rivers and lakes who were holding swords, and most of these people in the rivers and lakes also tried to stagger and dodge, so as not to cause trouble. Walking on the streets of Xiangyang, looking at the scenery here, there is no feeling of turmoil, but a feeling of peace and tranquility.

Came to the largest restaurant in Xiangyang, directly chose the second floor, Shen Chengping went upstairs, followed by Shang Peng and Shang He, the two elders, at this time the lobby on the second floor was already full of people, and there were not many empty places, Shen Chengping glanced around, and stopped at a man sitting by the window.

The man lived alone at a table, his face was slightly narrow, but he was also well-defined, his eyes were sharp, a red cloth was tied on his forehead, and his plain blue robe was a tight-fitting yellow samurai suit, plus a leather vest, which made him look even more broad-shouldered and narrow-waisted, and he was between twenty-four or five years old, and his form was extremely powerful. And his eyes that are different from those of the Han people also indicate that this person is a Hu person. He sat alone, there was a pot of wine on the table, a long sword on it, and a knife, a sword and a sword, which seemed a little weird, after all, there were really few people who cultivated swords at the same time.
