"As soon as Ding Shi's injury recovered, he poked out such a big basket for Humen and taught us how to save Humen's face. Guan Dadong said coldly, "Let your eldest brother not go out for a month, so as not to be embarrassed!"

Ding Shier stepped forward and explained: "The master of the door doesn't know, my eldest brother made this decision for the survival of the Tiger Gate. If he hadn't gone out to run naked, maybe Cao Zheng would have been able to get an inch and ask for 100,000 taels of spiritual compensation. At that time, the disciples' salaries will not be paid this month, and there will be a crisis of strike in Humen. In that case, the loss would not be solved by 10,000 taels of silver. ”

"Cao Zheng, this old thing, if I don't get rid of it for a day, I won't be happy in my heart. Guan Dadong continued, "The driving force behind sending Cao Zheng to the guillotine was Guo Yitian, and now Humen and the government are temporarily safe." I guess his next goal is to take the gantry. Of course, that's what I'd like to see. ”

In Longmen, Guo Yitian invited Bai Lang, Lin Xian'er, the three bandit brothers, and Yu Luoluo to eat Laba porridge. Guo Yitian said with a sad face: "I really can't figure out why the emperor pardoned Cao Zheng's capital crime. Now that Cao Zheng is gaining power, the people dare not speak out. Humen and the government have changed their attitudes and scolded him one after another. Longmen is not a sect that bends down to serve the powerful, but there is no guarantee that one day I will be persecuted by Cao Zheng because of this. ”

Yu Luoluo remembered that he had chosen five golden flowers that day, and replied: "Only Yang Yi in Suzhou entered the palace as a concubine, but according to my investigation, her life experience is not so simple, and she must have an improper relationship with Cao Zheng." Since Cao Zheng dared to go out of the mountain, it also showed that Yang Yi was favored in the palace. With that woman's seductive spirit, what could be more confusing to the heart of the saint?"

"Don't worry, Brother Guo Xian, with me, I will not tolerate Cao Zheng's nonsense. Bai Lang took over the conversation and asked, "The three protectors, according to our agreement at the beginning, is there any good improvement in Yihe's business now?"

The bandits drank the porridge and said calmly: "In the past six months, Yihe's business has blossomed in the Song Kingdom. Before the arrival of winter, we have exceeded our task of earning 200,000 taels of silver. ”

"Good job!" Bai Lang praised, "Also, is the girl sitting next to the second bandit a disciple of the Dragon Gate? ”

Bandit Er introduced: "Her name is Yu Luoluo. Although he is an outer disciple, he is excellent in martial arts. I recommended her to Master Guo as the fourth protector of the Dragon Gate. The bandit Sanyi didn't say a word, after all, he had a holiday with Yuluoluo, and he had always been obsessed.

Guo Yitian concluded: "It's not impossible! I believe that Yuluoluo's martial arts are obvious to everyone." After thinking about it these days. I still insist that the promotion of Dharma Protector needs to follow the process, first upgrade to an inner disciple, and then check whether Yu Luoluo can take on the responsibility of Dharma Protector. ”

The three bandits echoed: "What the door master said is extremely true!"

Yu Luoluo had the urge to strangle the three bandits, but he still endured it in front of so many people. Although Lin Xian'er's martial arts are sparse and ordinary, when she saw that the two of them were both golden flowers, she said some good things for Yu Luoluo: "Yu Luoluo's deciduous knife is a hundred shots, I still approve of her being the protector of the law, and I hope that Brother Guo can appoint her exceptionally." ”

Bai Lang put his hand on Guo Yitian's shoulder on the side, and said with a smile: "General Yuwen of the Sui Dynasty has an invincible blade knife all over the world, and I didn't expect it to be lost. According to the eldest brother's opinion, now that Longmen is the time to employ people, it will be hired exceptionally. ”

Guo Yitian finally gritted his teeth and said, "Since Big Brother Bai has agreed, then now I will officially announce Yu Luoluo's promotion to the protector of the law." Yu Luoluo was very pleased, and said with joy: "The master of the door is really benevolent and righteous, and I will do my best to be the protector of the Dharma." ”

In the beggar gang, Cao Zheng was a little proud, but in order to avenge Guo Yitian's sword, his teeth itched with hatred. Cao Zheng wanted to take revenge on Guo Yitian, but his division was unknown, and he was not his opponent.

So he sent a servant to summon Sima Rui, a disciple who had closed the door, to discuss how to sanction Longmen. Cao Zheng asked: "Sima Rui, the pain in the chest of the master has been severe recently, is there any way to cure it?" Sima Rui was quick to think, knowing that there was something in his words, and responded: "Does the master have a heart disease? According to the disciple's humble opinion, to get rid of the heart disease, you must get rid of Guo Yitian." ”

Cao Zheng lamented: "But the teacher is old, and his martial arts are not as good as the younger generation, how easy is it to get rid of Guo Yitian?" Sima Rui is a very scheming person: "There are only a handful of people who can defeat Guo Yitian head-on in Suzhou City, since we can't come to the light, we will come to the dark." I know there's one guy who can beat him, and we just have to sit on the sidelines and win. ”

Then Sima Rui covered his ears and whispered something to Cao Zheng, who looked very proud.

At dinnertime, Cao Zheng set up a banquet and asked the officers and soldiers of the Yamen and important people of Humen, including Li Xiangru, He Jie, Guan Dadong and Ding Shier. Ding Shida couldn't be there for special reasons, and Cao Zheng also smiled after understanding it.

"Everyone is here, please feel free to eat and drink. Today is Laba Festival, and I asked the cook to prepare a bowl of Laba porridge for everyone. Cao Zheng introduced with the friendship of the landlord, "Regarding the past, I am not to blame for the past, and everyone should not take it to heart." ”

Li Xiangru was afraid of Cao Zheng's power in the imperial court, and said vigorously: "Good! Good!" Li Xiangru is like a fart, resolutely support everything that Cao Zheng supports, and resolutely oppose everything that Cao Zheng opposes, without principles and no bottom line.

is not like Guan Dadong, who is also friend and foe, and the relationship can be handled with ease. Guan Dadong suspected that there must be something wrong with this night banquet, and he didn't dare to drink the laba porridge of the beggars casually, and there was no discomfort when he saw Ding Shier swallowing like a wolf. Cao Zheng looked at Guan Dadong sitting precariously and asked, "Why doesn't Guan Shaoxia use his chopsticks, is the delicacy not to your taste?"

Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief. Guan Dadong got straight to the point and said: "Gang Master Cao asked us to come to the banquet this time, what is the so-called?" Cao Zheng did not shy away from saying: "As we all know, I have severed my relationship with the flower thief. But in the last battle for the position of the leader of the beggar gang, Guo Yitian, the master of the Longmen Gate, actually interfered in the affairs of his own gang, and wanted to take my life with his trick Ten Thousand Swords. Fortunately, I have true qi to protect my body, and my life should not be extinguished. He actually instigated Li County to order me to be punished for capital crimes, which is really a sinister villain. What constructive views does Guan Shaoxia have on this?"

"To deal with villains, you have to repay the favor in the way of others, and there is no mercy for killing!" Guan Dadong said in a fierce voice, the atmosphere of the scene was frozen, and everyone was silent.

"Don't be afraid, I'm only targeting Guo Yitian, everyone is innocent, please continue to drink porridge with peace of mind." Cao Zheng smiled and applauded, "Regarding Guo Yitian, a sinister villain, I can't compete with it on my own." But I know that there is a top master in Humen who can subdue Guo Yitian. ”

Li Xiangru was surprised: "Who is it?"

"He is Guo Yitian's senior brother Xiang Wentian. Cao Zheng threw out an olive branch and said with a smug expression, "As long as he is willing to make a move, get rid of Guo Yitian." In the future, the territory of Suzhou will be taken over by us together to achieve mutual benefit and win-win results, wouldn't everyone be happy?"
