Chapter 225: The Battle Begins
In fact, Huangfu Tianchi didn't need to stare at Zhou Changsheng at all.
Zhou Changsheng himself was also sweating from fear. Regarding the words of Master Li just now, Zhou Changsheng is not answering now, nor is he not answering, so he was sweating there profusely, and he didn't say a word for a long time.
And for Zhou Changsheng, there is now a more fatal problem. That is, he has already spoken out in Governor Liu's mansion!
Zhou Changsheng personally told Governor Liu that he was able to sweep away those evil sect masters around Weigu City. Governor Liu will then agree to hand over to him the iron yard that originally belonged to the Dihua faction.
But now Zhou Changsheng knew that the strength of those evil sect demons was likely to be far above his estimate! He didn't have the strength to exterminate the demons at all. However, how dare Zhou Changsheng say such a thing to Governor Liu?
This Governor Liu is a scholar, and what he usually hates most is that someone fools him and uses him!
If Zhou Changsheng had only told Governor Liu that he could clean up the demons, he turned his head and said that he couldn't do it. I am afraid that this Governor Liu will immediately feel that Zhou Changsheng intends to tease him! It is even possible that this Governor Liu will feel that Zhou Changsheng has malicious intentions and deliberately deceives him with lies and makes him have a bad relationship with the Dihua faction.
The court of the Great Zhou Dynasty has always been strong. Except for those real outlaws, even those powerful people in the rivers and lakes, few of them dare to fight against the government! If Zhou Changsheng really makes Governor Liu hate, he probably won't have a good life in Weigu City in the future!
"Master Zhou, the old man has always been a man of his word. As long as you can sweep away the demons outside Weigu City, the old man of the two iron yards will offer them with both hands. Master Li said categorically, and even asked a disciple next to him to take the land deeds of the two iron yards, and put them in front of Zhou Changsheng without hesitation.
"Master Li...... Brother Li, don't make such jokes with your little brother. Zhou Changsheng sweated on his forehead, and he waved at the head of Li with a sad face, and his eyes didn't dare to fall on the two land deeds at all.
"Lord Zhoumen really doesn't want these two land deeds?"
"No, no!" Zhou Changsheng waved his hand desperately, and his head shook like a rattle.
"Hmph! Since the Zhou Sect Master has no intention of this land deed, what are you still doing here? Could it be that the Zhou Sect Master really intends to join hands with our Dihua Sect to fight against those evil sect demons?"
To be honest, with the strength that the Dihua faction is showing now, Zhou Changsheng even had the idea of whether to simply tear off his face at that moment, and turn his head to hug the two big thick legs of the Dihua faction and the Heaven and Earth Alliance.
However, Zhou Changsheng thought about it, and thought that even the strength of the Dihua faction and the Heaven and Earth Alliance was not completely sure that they could defeat those evil sect demons.
Especially thinking of the history of how many years of grudges between his family and the Dihua faction, Zhou Changsheng is even more desired. Contrary to when they came with high spirits, Changlemen and his party fled directly from the Dihua faction in embarrassment.
However, Huangfu Tianchi did not leave with Changlemen and his party, but stayed in the Dihua faction.
"Hmm, this Mr. Huangfu, aren't you going with the Zhou Sect Master?" Seeing that Zhou Changsheng and his party were gone, Huangfu Tianchi stood there and didn't move, and couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Master Li, he is also a disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect no matter what, and this time he was ordered by the master to go down the mountain to exterminate the demons of the evil sect. And no matter what the original intention of the master of Zhou, he only listened to the orders of the master. Since the order of the division is to exterminate the demons in Xia, then he will definitely accompany him to the end! Since the leader of the He Alliance and the head of Li are already planning to fight to the death with the demons, then the next is willing to fight side by side with the head of Li and all of your colleagues. Huangfu Tianchi looked at Master Li with a righteous face.
Huangfu Tianchi thought very clearly, this is a good opportunity to get married to the future inner disciples! In the future, whether you eat meat or drink soup depends on this transaction!
"Uh......" Master Li was stared at by Huangfu Tianchi with a righteous expression, and he couldn't help but feel confused for a while, and he didn't know what to say.
The two girls, Xiao Su and Wei Yue'er, were also speechless at each other, and they both felt like they couldn't cry or laugh.
To be honest, who among the people present could not see it? This time, Zhou Changsheng had the courage to go to the Dihua faction to provoke, obviously because he had the power of Huangfu Tianchi. As a result, after turning around, this Huangfu Tianchi came to their side!
This guy is really good enough to see the wind and rudder! He Zhi couldn't help but admire Huangfu Tianchi's cheekiness in his heart.
However, not to mention how thick-skinned this Emperor Fu Tianchi is, He Zhi is only worried about the lack of manpower now, and there is no reason to dislike too much combat power!
In particular, Huangfu Tianchi himself is still an outer disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, and he can be regarded as half of the same sect as Wei Yue'er. In a way, he's a reliable man!
After all, the Ten Thousand Swords Sect is a place with strict rules. If Huangfu Tianchi dared to harm Wei Yue'er in this battle, he would definitely not have his good fruit to eat when he returned to the Ten Thousand Swords Sect in the future!
No matter what, there are always too many helpers! He Zhi based on the principle of having one and one, and simply accepted Huangfu Tianchi.
"Okay, since Brother Huangfu said so, then our battle with the demons will be counted as Brother Huangfu's share. He Zhi said with a smile.
"Ah! Don't dare to be, don't dare to be! What is the identity of the leader of the alliance? How dare you be the elder brother of the leader of the alliance? The leader of the alliance is the eldest brother of Senior Sister Wei, that is, my eldest brother. Brother He just needs to call me by my real name. If there is anything, Brother He, please do not hesitate to command. I must do my best to go to the soup and go to the fire, and I will not give up!" Huangfu Tianchi said these words, and he really put on a dog's leg posture, and he almost inserted his tail behind his ass to make him shake a few times.
Moreover, the ability to fight snakes with sticks is also perfect, and He Zhi has a feeling of "It's a pity that this kid doesn't do sales".
As the saying goes, reach out and don't hit the smiling person. Huangfu Tianchi put on a posture of being willing to be a dog for He Zhi, and He Zhi could only reluctantly accept such a "little brother" who was also from a famous family.
At this time, He Zhi had already explained all the preparations he needed to make to deal with that Spirit Realm monk at night. Ying Wu, Luo Sanlang, Hu Feng, and even He Zhi himself are all in a tense busyness.
And Huangfu Tianchi, as a newcomer to join, couldn't get involved for a while. As a result, Huangfu Tianchi, who had nothing to do, followed He Zhi all the way to show his affection.
He Zhi really hadn't adapted to the life of this ancient superior person. Maybe if He Zhi is replaced by someone else who "enters the Tao and cultivates the truth", he will enjoy the feeling of Huangfu Tianchi being like a dog's leg beside him. But He Zhi really couldn't bear it.
After thinking about it, He Zhi could only send Huangfu Tianchi to Luo Sanlang.
Anyway, Luo Saburo is the best at dealing with people, and it is perfect to use it to deal with Huangfu Tianchi.
Huangfu Tianchi saw that he seemed to be a sycophant on the horse's leg, not only failed to please He Zhi, but caused some disgust and some anxiety. At He Zhi's insistence, he had to come all the way to Luo Sanlang's side.
"Brother Luo, I don't know how long you have known the old man of the He Alliance?" When he arrived at Luo Sanlang's side, Huangfu Tianchi was still uneasy, so he simply asked Luo Sanlang about He Zhi's situation.
"Hehe, we haven't known him for long. Luo Saburo still smiled and said, "What's wrong?"
"Uh...... Actually, it's nothing. I just want to ask, what is the origin of this He Alliance Master, his old man?" Huangfu Tianchi lowered his voice and asked again.
"Hmm...... If you want to talk about the origin of Brother Mu, in fact, I don't know very well. I've heard rumors from some people that Brother Mu is just a casual practitioner. ”
"What?Loose Cultivation?Impossible!" Huangfu Tianchi couldn't help but laugh dumbly when he heard this, and then shook his head again and again, "How could it be a Loose Cultivation......?" This He Alliance Master is a once-in-a-century figure! Also, why do you call him Brother Mu? I think Master Li doesn't call him He League Master all the time?"
"Hehe, it's just a pseudonym. “
"Oh...... Also, a character like this, before the Dao Fa is completed, should indeed be careful when walking outside. It is also natural that there are a number of pseudonyms. Huangfu Tianchi nodded again and again, looking like he was concerned, "But no matter what, I don't believe that the old man of the He Alliance will be a loose cultivator! You should know, right? The old man of the He Alliance is a martial artist! Even if it is our Ten Thousand Swords Sect, it is only one or two big people who can come out in a hundred years!"
"Hehe, if Brother Huangfu doesn't believe it, I've heard another statement. ”
"Oh, what else to say?" Huangfu Tianchi anxiously urged Luo Saburo to go down.
"I once heard Hu Zhenren, the assistant director of our Tianhe County, say that Brother Mu is very likely to be a secret disciple of the Beiyue Sword Sect. ”
"Secret disciple?" Huangfu Tianchi's eyes widened, and his breathing stopped.
"Exactly. It is rumored that among the great sects in this world, many of them have secret disciples. Because these big factions have many enemies of their own, and they even have opponents of the Heavenly Immortals and Earth Immortals. Therefore, in order to prevent the enemy family from suddenly breaking through the realm one day and leading to the complete destruction of the sect, some of the most outstanding disciples will be secretly placed outside the mountain gate to cultivate. The exercises, guidance, and resources that these disciples received were all the same as those of true disciples. It's just that it's not in the mountain gate, and it never recognizes its identity to the outside world. ”
"Oh, oh!" Although Huangfu Tianchi is a disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, he is only in the outer gate on weekdays, and he does not know many secrets in the sect.
However, it is precisely because of this that an outer disciple like Huangfu Tianchi is the most interested in the secrets of the sect! Hearing Luo Sanlang talk about the secrets of this great sect, Huangfu Tianchi nodded again and again, and his two eyes seemed to be about to glow.
Regarding Luo Sanlang's words, Huangfu Tianchi was convinced. Because in Huangfu Tianchi's imagination, this should be the "origin" that is in line with He Zhi's identity! Beiyue Sword Sect's secret disciple, with He Zhi's strength, such an identity can be worthy of his ability!
Absolute impossibility!
"So, the Hu Zhenren you just mentioned has seen him?"
"Hehe, of course. Brother Mu went directly to meet Hu Zhenren in the county assistant department. He also joined our Associate Division and became the Authorized Secretary of our Associate Division. ”
"Oh, isn't he a secret disciple of the Beiyue Sword Sect, why did he still join the Associate Division?"
"Hehe, it's not a contradiction. Among our assistant divisions, there are also people from your Ten Thousand Swords Sect. As a secret disciple, he naturally has to have a layer of identity cover when he comes out to do things. ”
"Yes, yes, I'm confused. Huangfu Tianchi nodded again and again, and reached out to knock his head, and then asked more and more curiously, "What happened to the Beiyue Sword Sect that actually alarmed the secret disciples?"
"Ah, Brother Huangfu, you still don't know? This time, the evil sects outside Weigu City gathered, and the root cause of this is this! A true disciple of the Beiyue Sword Sect disappeared in the valley outside Weigu City, and the soul lamp was extinguished. Therefore, the Beiyue Sword Sect was furious. Several Jin Dan elders were sent to investigate the truth about the murder of this true disciple. ”
"Oh! I see. The Jindan elders of the Beiyue Sword Sect are the way in the open, and then this Lord of the He Alliance is the way in the secret. One light and one dark, both pronged. I see, I see. Huangfu Tianchi nodded again and again, looking like he finally understood.
Luo Saburo still maintained a smile that had never changed, and got up and left after finishing speaking. Huangfu Tianchi was left alone to reminisce for a long time, and then he suddenly stood up smartly, and chased Luo Sanlang to find something to do.
By about dusk, the Dihua faction had fallen silent again.
The disciples who were originally patrolling around the Dihua Sect were also ordered by the head of Li to cancel their patrols at He Zhi's strong request, and they all returned to their respective homes to rest.
In the night, the Dihua faction was dark, as if it had fallen into a deep sleep.
"Master, what kind of trick do you say this Dihua Sect is doing?" On the roof of a house about half a mile away from the Dihua Sect, the White Lotus Holy Maiden, still dressed in white and looking like a female ghost under the moonlight, stood beside the leader of the evil sect, looking in the direction of the Dihua Sect and asked.
Behind the two of them, at least twenty or so cult masters stood or sat on the roofs of the surrounding tree-building houses, and let out bursts of oozing strange laughter.
"Hehe, it's not a big deal. It's nothing more than setting up a suspicious array and setting up an ambush to counterattack. Since the man who followed the Flying Yaksha yesterday has already sensed my presence, he will not sit idly by. With his ability, this whole day must have laid a net and was waiting for his son. I don't know, but I also invited a few helpers. The leader of the evil sect chuckled, but there was a look of contempt in his eyes, "However, since this son is here." No matter how much he struggled, the outcome was the same. ”
