Chapter 531: Who Asks Heroes Are Free (Part 2)
After the end of the First Battle of Xiaogushan, although the rivers and lakes of Yanmen County were turbulent for a while, they soon returned to calm.
And just half a month after the end of that battle, a team of the Frostfall Division came to the Beiye Crazy Sword Gate.
Beiye Crazy Knife Gate, located in the north of Yanmen County, although it is still within the scope of Yanmen County, it is already very close to Dingxiang County.
Zhang Rang and his people had just arrived at the Beiye Crazy Knife Gate, and the owner of the Beiye Crazy Knife Gate, Beiye Tianlow, came out with people to greet him.
"I've seen Master Zhang!"
Kitano Tianlow hugged his fist towards Zhang Rang, and his attitude was very kind.
Zhang Rang also dismounted and bowed his hand towards Beiye Tianlow, "I have long heard that there are four first-class Jianghu forces in Yanmen County. Even though the Beiye Crazy Sword Gate no longer has the powerhouses of the Five Qi Dynasty Yuan Realm, no one in the rivers and lakes of Yanmen County dares to regard the Beiye Crazy Sword Gate as a second-rate force in the rivers and lakes. I originally wondered, what is the ability of this Beiye Crazy Knife Gate, but when I saw it today, I realized that there was such an atmospheric master in the Northern Wild Crazy Knife Gate. ”
Kitano Tianlow didn't expect that Zhang Rang, a person who would do something without saying a word, would praise himself when he just saw him.
He smiled slightly, "Master Zhang is too polite. There's already a banquet inside, please come in!"
Kitano Tian said in a low voice, and everyone with Zhang Rang and the Frost Descendant Division walked towards the Kitano Crazy Knife Gate.
The group walked into the main hall of the Beiye Crazy Sword Gate.
At this moment, a banquet has been set up on the main hall.
Everyone was seated separately.
After Kitano Tianlow poured wine for Zhang Rang, he poured a glass of wine for Cao Jie next to Zhang Rang, and then poured himself wine.
"Master Zhang, I don't hide it. The reason why our Beiye Crazy Knife Gate can still exist today is not because of our strength, but because of reality! We, the people of Beiye Crazy Knife Gate, really don't know how to play tricks. So, when Master Zhang is here today, I have something to say. But before you speak, take a drink. ”
Zhang Rang picked up the wine glass and drank it all with Kitano Tianlow.
After drinking this cup, Kitano Tian said in a deep voice: "I don't know what Master Zhang came to my Beiye Crazy Knife Gate for?"
Zhang Rang smiled and glanced at Cao Jie beside him and the huge first mad knife behind Cao Jie.
"Naturally, it's because of the knife, and the man. ”
Many of the people present at the Beiye Crazy Knife Gate frowned.
The purpose of the establishment of the Twenty-Four Sword Division is to suppress the rivers and lakes.
Because the strength of the northern rivers and lakes is very strong, and although the four northern states are under the control of Yuan Shaochu, in fact, many places obey the orders of the rivers and lakes forces, and do not obey the orders of the imperial court.
Even, in some places, the common people handed over their taxes to the surrounding Jianghu sects, rather than to the imperial court.
But the imperial court could not eliminate all the forces of the rivers and lakes.
Therefore, Yuan Shaochu came up with the method of establishing the Twenty-Four Sword Division.
By summoning a large number of masters to suppress the rivers and lakes, avoid these people in the rivers and lakes from becoming bigger.
Therefore, the rivers and lakes and the Twenty-four Sword Divisions are opposed to each other.
"I have set up rules on the ancestor of the Beiye Crazy Knife Sect. Whoever can get the first mad knife, I, the North Field Crazy Knife Gate, will obey whom's orders. It is precisely because of this that the warriors of my Kitano sword maniacs are desperately trying to improve their strength, hoping that they are qualified to become the owner of the first mad sword. But many years ago, the master of my Beiye Crazy Knife Gate had an accident, and the first crazy knife was lost, and it was later obtained by the Knife Crazy Miao Renli. It's just ......"
Speaking of this, Kitano Tian sighed lowly, "Miao Renli walked the rivers and lakes alone, and did not agree to the request to join the Kitano Crazy Sword Sect. Therefore, the first mad knife has been wandering outside. Now, this knife has fallen into the hands of Master Zhang, I don't know what Master Zhang's plans are?"
Zhang Rang smiled slightly, poured himself a glass of wine, and drank it all.
"A lot of people know what the Twenty-Four Sword Division does. But I'm afraid you don't know what I do. ”
Hearing this, everyone was stunned.
Your Frostfall Division is also one of the Twenty-Four Sword Divisions!
Could it be that your Frost Descending Division is different from other Sword Divisions?
"Elsewhere, the emphasis is on suppression. Why do you want to suppress the rivers and lakes, to put it bluntly, the king of Jizhou is worried that the people in the rivers and lakes will do things and affect his power. But I think differently than they do. Everyone also knows that I, Zhang Rang, was the killer of Sword Rain Villa from the beginning. If I can have a way to live, why should I be a killer who is shouted and beaten by everyone in the rivers and lakes?"
Zhang Rang said, and sighed very sadly.
"People are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves. To put it bluntly, we all just want to make our lives better. This is true of the imperial court, and so is the case of the rivers and lakes. It's just that in the north, the rivers and lakes are huge, which leads to a sense of insecurity among the people in the imperial court. But what's the use of suppression? As soon as you say that you want to suppress the rivers and lakes, you directly push everyone in the rivers and lakes to the opposite side. But my Zhang Rang's idea is that the Frost Fall Division is a part of the rivers and lakes, and it has to do the most important part. ”
Seeing that there were thoughtful looks on everyone's faces, Zhang Rang continued.
"The Frost Fall Division under my jurisdiction is actually a force in the rivers and lakes. Therefore, I adopted the Anyuan Pavilion, and An Chongshan, the pavilion master of the Anyuan Pavilion, became one of the deputy directors of my Frost Descending Division. After that, I, Zhang Rang, will also co-opt other Jianghu forces, not to suppress the Jianghu, but to unify the Jianghu of the entire Yanmen County. Let me ask, if the forces in the rivers and lakes of the entire Yanmen County were unified, how much less unnecessary fighting would there be? Let me ask, we are all one family, so what else can we suppress and not suppress? You say, yes and no?"
As soon as they heard this, many people fell into thought.
Some people feel that Zhang Rang's words seem to make some sense.
At this time, Kitano Tianlow couldn't help but ask: "I have to admit that what Master Zhang said is indeed a way." But the problem is that it is impossible for other Jianghu forces to be willing to be your subordinates, let alone to be willing to join the Frostfall Division. Everybody wants to be free, don't they?"
"Everybody wants to be free, but where is freedom so easy to get? When a third-rate force encounters a second-rate force, there is no freedom. When a second-rate force encounters a first-rate force, there is no freedom. When the first-class forces encounter the nine products of the rivers and lakes, they must also bow their heads. And even if the rivers and lakes are nine products, and they hinder each other, who is truly free? Ladies and gentlemen, at this point, I will simply find out. ”
Zhang Rang said, stood up, and patted Cao Jie next to him.
"The first mad knife is the thing of your Beiye Crazy Knife Gate, if you want it, I can return it to you. The price is, the master of the sect, you want to accept my brother as a disciple and teach him the sword technique, and you, the Beiye Crazy Sword Sect, will also join the Frostfall Division and become a part of the Frostfall Division. Of course, I won't restrict you too much, and I will even send you cultivation resources and silver taels on a regular basis. And there are only two things you have to do. ”
"First, when the Frostfall Division needs you, take action. Second, help the Frostfall Division train warriors. There are only these two requirements, what do you think?"
After a moment of silence, Kitano Tianlow suddenly raised his head and glanced at Zhang Rang, "Okay!
