Things went smoothly, Ren Xiaoyao had a preliminary discussion with Lord Hong and Chu Wei on how to fight against the Japanese Invaders, and the two sides also had a good conversation. What they didn't expect was that during the entire banquet, Changgong Shi Zhong didn't talk much, and also said that he would help Chu Wei coordinate the officers and troops.

Dongchang has always been very powerful, and most local officials can't afford to provoke it. If Shi Zhong can do a good job as a supervisor of the army, then the combat effectiveness of the officers and soldiers will not be too bad.

After Ren Xiaoyao reached a preliminary agreement with Hong Ying and Chu Wei, he immediately returned to Xiaoyaomen and continued to contact all factions in the rivers and lakes. Moreover, with the support of the officials and the army, Ren Yao's confidence is also a lot more sufficient.

The fifth line returned to Xiaoyaomen, but there was still something unclear in his heart, that is, the daughter of Lord Hong at the end, her identity was indeed a little suspicious. The fifth line never thought that this woman, who should be everyone's best girl, why was her martial arts so high?

Moreover, the fifth line originally wanted to test her martial arts path, but she didn't succeed, which made the fifth line even more puzzled.

Thinking of this in the fifth line, he suddenly remembered a person. Although she hadn't seen this person, according to the inference of the fifth line, he was really very similar to Miss Hong.

This person is the Dead Water Fairy.

Could it be that the daughter of the prefect is a dead water fairy? The fifth line thought so, but immediately felt that this should be impossible!

It's all too much of a coincidence, and it's not out of the question.

So, the fifth line secretly called Zhizhi and asked her to tell her what happened on the merchant ship that afternoon. When Zhizhi heard this, she only knew that on the night of the fifth line, after sending herself back to the room, she even went to see other women, so she naturally complained first, which made the fifth line very embarrassed.

However, Zhizhi has this good thing, that is, she doesn't hold grudges, and after a while, she will get better immediately. Of course, Zhizhi also knew that the fifth line was naturally not interested in this Miss Hong Yaqiu, otherwise she would not have begun to doubt her identity.

The fifth line and Zhizhi have been together for a long time, and they are even more convinced that this Hong Yaqiu is very likely to be a backwater fairy. It's just that they still feel very puzzled, why did this daughter of the Hong Governor's Mansion get involved with the Japanese Kou?

Could it be that this Hong Governor's Mansion is also secretly connected with the Japanese Invaders. But judging from last night's conversation, the fifth line obviously felt that Governor Hong was not like such a person.

The stakes are high, and everything should be clarified as soon as possible. If Lord Hong's daughter is really a disciple of the Fire Evil Sect, the Dead Water Fairy, things will become very troublesome.

The fifth line thought so, but did not inform Ren Xiaoyao of this matter for the time being. Before this matter is decided, it is better to let it or not too many people know. If there are too many people who know, it will definitely have a bad impact.

Ren Xiaoyao can get the support of the official army, which is naturally like a tiger with wings, and it is more justifiable. When he invites the various factions of the rivers and lakes again, he can also inform him of this matter by the way. Sure enough, this trick worked well, and many sects that were still waiting and watching immediately responded to Ren Yao's call.

At the same time, Wang Jinghao and Shi Zhong also really began to assist Chu Wei in training the officers and soldiers. Although they don't have a military palace yet, it is okay to select some elite sergeants first and start intensive training.

Chu Wei's idea was that although there were many officers and troops, it was best to use them in a concentrated manner, but in his own hands, there should still be a small well-trained elite force in order to carry out a surprise attack on the enemy at a critical moment. This force should be under his direct control, not too many people, but it must be the elite of the elite, brave and tenacious in battle, and will not be easily defeated.

Although there are many officers and soldiers, it is easy to rout when there is a headwind. At this time, a force was needed to turn the tide, so Chu Wei proposed to personally train a small elite army.

His suggestion was first approved by Wang Jinghao, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, so Wang Jinghao also specially sent a success or failure dilemma to assist him in dealing with this matter. Shi Zhong then also expressed his support, and together with him, selected suitable people from among the officers and soldiers in various towns, and set up a military camp outside Hangzhou, where he was personally trained by Chu Wei and Chengli Shuangxiong.

The fifth line was naturally very happy to see that everything was going well. However, Ren Xiaoyao poured cold water on him again, that is, their investigation of the news of the Japanese Kou was never smooth. Although Luo Youdong has been secretly collecting intelligence for Xiaoyaomen on the rivers and lakes, there is still not much news about the Japanese Kou. Especially for this fire evil sect, the leader of the Japanese Bandits, they still don't know anything about it at the moment.

The fifth line immediately understood what he meant, so he asked, "That senior, what do you want to do below?" ”

"The old man wants the fifth young man to go to a place." Ren Xiaoyao replied directly.

"Where?" The fifth line asks rhetorically.

"The Inn of Madness?" Ren Xiaoyao replied.

"Crazy Inn? Is there really such a weird inn on the rivers and lakes? The fifth line asked in surprise.

"Of course, although there are many false rumors in the legends, most of them are not groundless. This crazy inn actually exists, and the old man has been there a few times when he was young. Ren Xiaoyao replied.

"Legend has it that this inn only accommodates people who are crazy to the extreme, and normal people are never allowed to stay. The people who live in it are all kinds of strange theories and strange behaviors, and none of them are normal. It's just on the rivers and lakes, but few people know where this inn is? "The fifth line has obviously heard of this mad inn for a long time, but he has never been there at all.

"The fifth young man is right, this crazy inn, in fact, strictly speaking, is not an inn, but a gathering place for a group of maniacs. Because they are inside, not only will they not be ridiculed for their various crazy behaviors, but they will be respected, so many people are reluctant to come out after living in it. Ren Xiaoyao continued.

"But, in such a place, what do the seniors want to let you do down?" The fifth line asked.

"I want you to inquire about the Fire Evil Sect." Ren Xiaoyao replied.

"News from the Fire Demon Sect? How could the seniors be sure that they could find out about the Fire Evil Sect in this inn? "The fifth line still doesn't understand.

"Huh! Because the first time the old man heard the name of the Fire Evil Sect was told to the old man by a master in this inn. If this master hadn't passed away, he would have been at least one hundred and twenty years old by now. Moreover, the old man also heard that in the Crazy Inn, a group of mysterious Dongying people have recently lived. The old man felt that these people might be related to the Japanese Kou or even the Fire Evil Sect, so he asked the fifth young man to explore the reality. Now, we have everything ready, but we still don't know where the old nest of the Japanese Invaders is, and we don't know much about the martial arts of this person from the Fire Evil Sect, we must figure out these two things as soon as possible, otherwise we will suffer a big loss. Ren Xiaoyao said without worry.
