Taihu Lake, wind and sand.

"Master, according to the report of the spies, the imperial court has taken action......"

Standing in the watchtower above the wind and sand, there is a middle-aged man with a dry pipe and a shy round belly, dressed in a brocade dress, with a sideways face, a somewhat fierce and vicious face, and big round eyes, looking at the ships sailing from the Taihu Lake.

Behind him, a man with a figure-of-eight beard dressed as a servant, who looked like a master, was bowing down to report.

The middle-aged man with a dry pipe in his mouth is the bully Fang Tong on this side, and the eight-character bearded man behind him is the master Fang Cai who aids in the abuse.

Fang Tong's master and servant boarded this watchtower, not only to watch the passing ships, but also to sum up the news that the imperial court had noticed that Fang Tong had disturbed the disaster in the south of the Yangtze River.

Fang Tong snorted coldly and sneered disdainfully, "So what? The mountain is high and the emperor is far away, Lao Tzu is the Ninety-Five Honor, and Lao Tzu is the overlord of one party." ”

Master Fang Cai frowned slightly, raised his hand and fiddled with his eight-character beard, and said in a deep voice: "Master, I'm afraid this time won't be so simple, we are still ready to face the battle in time......"

Fang Tong pondered for a moment, and seemed to realize that Fang Cai's words were not unreasonable, or rather, Fang Cai would never look so solemn, probably because the situation was a little serious.

"Master, why is it not a simple method?" Tell me...... he paced on the watchtower, looking calm and composed, even though Mount Tai collapsed in front of him and his color remained unchanged.

Fang Cai hesitated, so he had no choice but to tell the story, "The spies sent back, saying that this time, the imperial court united with the forces of the rivers and lakes and planned to carry out an encirclement and suppression of our entrenched territory......"

"Hahaha, encirclement and suppression? Master, are you joking with me? Just rely on those wine bags and rice bags in the imperial court, plus a few rivers and lakes grass couges, to encircle and suppress our territory? Don't they know the name of our Tong?"

"Master, having said that, we have to beware that those officials in the government are not to be afraid, and a few rivers and lakes will not be able to become any climate. But if we offend the power of heaven, the imperial court will send an army to suppress us, and with our strength, I am afraid that it will not be enough to compete with the imperial army......"

Fang Tong weighed it and blinked his big round eyes, "Then according to the master's opinion, what measures should we take?"

"If you don't do it, you won't stop it!" Fang Cai's eyes wiped a trace of cold murderous aura, "As long as they dare to send someone to sneak into Taihu Lake, we will evaporate them from the world and disappear out of thin air!"

Fang Tong nodded, "This plan is very good, if the imperial court sends someone to investigate, it will also be a headless public case, and there is no way to investigate." ”

"Exactly!"

"Okay, master, according to your plan, you immediately gather the guards in the palace, strictly patrol, check the boats entering and leaving Taihu Lake, and once you find a suspicious person, you will not be killed. Fang Tong immediately ordered.

Fang Tong arched his hand and said, "Obey." Master, I found out clearly, this time, the grass coward who came out of the rivers and lakes was headed by a man named Chu Tianxing. ”

"Chu Tianxing?" Fang Tong asked rhetorically, chewing on the name.

"That's right, I heard that it is the son of Jiangnan businessman Jia Chu Jinhong. ”

"Chu Jinhong, hmph, didn't this old thing be wiped out and killed ten years ago? Why did another son pop up?"

Fang Cai pondered and replied: "The villain also feels strange, this Chujiazhuang was indeed slaughtered ten years ago, but I heard that his son Chu Tianxing suddenly appeared recently, came back, and threatened to revive Chujiazhuang. ”

The horizontal meat on Fang Tong's face twitched a few times, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Chu Jinhong, this turtle grandson, in the early years, business was always against me everywhere, and he deserved to be destroyed ten years ago. Today, even if he crawls out of the grave, I'm going to let him go back to the eighteenth floor of hell!"

"Master, Chu Tianxing, a thief boy, can't be underestimated. Listening to the rumors of those people in the rivers and lakes, saying that he had obtained what ancient divine sword, what was it called the Dragon Blood Sword, and what kind of swordsmanship was the first in the world to cultivate, what was the Ten Swords to One Sword Technique!" Fang Cai briefly reported to Fang Tong what he had heard from the people in the rivers and lakes.

Fang Tong heard it with itchy teeth, "I don't care what sword he is, he is nosy, and he is in charge of Lao Tzu's head, that is, Tai Sui's head is groundbreaking, and Lao Tzu let him taste what life is better than death." ”

After speaking, he groaned slightly, and then said, "In addition to sending additional guards to patrol and inspect, in addition, release the dead soldiers trained on Death Island, and if you meet someone surnamed Chu, you will be dismantled!"

As soon as Fang Cai heard about Death Island, his pupils immediately dilated, his face changed suddenly, and after hesitating, he asked with some concern: "Master, this dead soldier of Death Island is our most elite warrior, will it be a bit ...... for them to come out to deal with the surnamed Chu Kill chickens with a knife?"

Fang Tong shook his head, "No, although Lao Tzu doesn't pay any attention to these people in the rivers and lakes, he can't be underestimated. They will bite mosquitoes on the eggs, and once they sneak in, the consequences of breaking through the first line of defense of Taihu Lake are unimaginable. Therefore, it is important to ensure that nothing goes wrong. ”

Fang Cai nodded like pounding garlic, gave a thumbs up, and praised flatteringly: "The eldest master is wise and martial, this move must be to make the surname Chu come and go." The villain is going to convey the will of the great master immediately?"

Fang Tong said "um", as if he remembered something again, and immediately added, "By the way, the wind has been tight recently, and it is not a peaceful day, take a good look at the eldest lady, don't let her go crazy and do something out of the ordinary." Don't be like last time, secretly open a warehouse to release grain, and relieve those people, this crazy girl, I really don't know if my brain is in water, or if I was caught by the door. ”

Fang Cai frowned slightly, "Master, don't worry, this time, I will personally go to see the eldest lady, and I will definitely not let her make trouble." ”

"Okay, you go down!" Fang Tong waved his hand and motioned for Fang Cai to retreat.

"Yes, sir, the wind and sand ferry is windy, you should go back and rest early. Fang Cai bowed slightly, and then stepped back.

Fang Tong looked at the distance, the vast Taihu Lake, this side of the world, all in his control, what kind of people disasters, what side of the bully, it has nothing to do with him.

However, when he thought of his daughter Fang Ruyu, he couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart, even if he had a big family and a big business, entrenched in the Taihu Lake area, and lived the life of a king.

And the precious daughter who he regarded as the pearl of his palm was very different, and he actually felt pity, sympathized with those people, and gave the food in vain to help those untouchables.

This is absolutely intolerable to Fang Tong, it is simply to rip meat on his heart, if it weren't for Fang Ruyu is his daughter, he would have to chop her into meat sauce and throw her into Taihu Lake to feed the fish.

Fang Ruyu even openly contradicted him, arguing with him, saying that he was atoning for the sins he had created and accumulating good deeds for him. What kind of good deeds do you need to accumulate, what virtues do you need to do, in Taihu Lake, he is the king of heaven, Lao Tzu, whoever he wants to give birth will live, and whoever he wants to die will have to die.
