Chapter 229: Rejection (6)
Liu Changqing smiled slightly and said, "That's not a big deal, Wudang sent deigns to look for us, and you put down this kind of formation to show Master Kurong." If someone else is not conducive to the Wudang faction, then that's fine, but if this person is Liang Zhao and has bad intentions, then whatever I say is to be managed, even if Master Kurong doesn't come to me, I will do the same. ”
As he was talking, suddenly a head probed his head and poked his head in, looked around, and saw the three of them standing there, grinning, and asked, "Hall Master Liu, is Mr. Shu Du Lao'er here?"
Liu Changqing was puzzled: "How could he be here......"
Yang Zhen's face was full of anger, glared at Mr. Du, who came over, and scolded: "This is the hall master's bedroom, how did you get here!"
Yang Zhen spoke very loudly, and Mr. Du was startled, jumped up, and said, "I...... I got it...... Come and find ......"
Yang Zhen was about to scold again, and Liu Changqing hurriedly said, "Come here, I have something to ask you." Yang Zhen saw that Liu Changqing didn't care about the rude behavior of his disciples, and sighed secretly in his heart, Suo Ling saw this, glanced at Yang Zhen, nodded lightly, and looked at Liu Changqing again, meaning that she would persuade Liu Changqing to pay attention to this matter in the future. Yang Zhen smiled at her.
When Mr. Shu came over, Liu Changqing asked, "Shu Da...... Mr. Shu, why did you come here to find Mr. Du?"
Mr. Shu became smiling again at this time, and said, "Yes, let's bet, he loses, come on...... Hee-hee, that doesn't need to be detailed. ”
Liu Changqing knew that their bets were very vulgar, and sometimes the bets were even more difficult to talk about, so he didn't ask questions, but only said, "What about Elder Ye? ”
Mr. Shu Du ordered him to go out, glanced at Yang Zhen with a frightened look, and said, "I'll go now." ”
After a while, Ye Gu knocked on the door to greet him, Liu Changqing asked Yang Zhen and Suo Ling to go out first, let Ye Gu hang his seat, and said, "Elder Ye, you have always been in charge of the general affairs of the hall, how many people are in our Red Demon Hall, do you know?"
Ye Guhang said: "My hall has twenty-two volumes of roster, each volume contains 10,000 people, calculated, my Red Demon Hall main hall, plus the east, west, south, north, and middle five branches, a total of more than 216,000 people, the main hall accounts for less than one of ten, the reason is that the middle hall was separated from the main hall a few years ago, and took away more than half of the people in the hall. ”
Liu Changqing couldn't help but be stunned, but he didn't show it, nodded slowly, and asked, "How many apprentices does Elder Ye accept?"
Ye Gu was stunned for a moment, and said: "The entrance apprenticeship of this hall has always been subject to the consent of the head of each branch hall and the hall master, and if it is the heir of a person in the hall, he can directly register into the hall. I have confiscated my apprentices myself. ”
Liu Changqing nodded again and asked, "What do you think of fighting with the imperial court?"
This question is quite complicated and profound, and it is difficult to answer for a while, but Ye Guhang has always been arrogant, and the new hall master has a question to ask, how can he not answer it? After thinking for a moment, he immediately replied: "The stronghold in my hall is mostly on the famous mountain around the water, if you want to meet the imperial court soldiers, it is all up to you alone, if you want to attack, then you will be cautious step by step, set up camp, and act in the art of war; if you want to defend, then you will not be able to defend it, and the soldiers will block it, and the water will cover it, and I don't know where the hall master will fight with the imperial court?"
These words were ambiguous, Liu Changqing didn't know anything about these art of war, and he couldn't say anything, so he asked again: "I have something to understand, and I ask Elder Ye to solve my doubts." ”
Ye Guhang saw that Liu Changqing was not supportive, humble and polite, and secretly admired in his heart, and said, "Don't dare." ”
Liu Changqing said: "How did Mr. Du and Mr. Shu get into our Red Demon Hall by you?"
Ye Guxuan didn't know why Liu Changqing only mentioned this matter, he was a little stunned, and said: "Back to the hall master, this matter has been a long time coming, and it's all because of me. I, the master of the Red Demon Hall, Shi Fangyue, was lost in Jiangling for no reason......"
As soon as he finished saying this, Liu Changqing was taken aback, it turned out that he clearly remembered that when he and Suo Ling fell into the secret room of Zhang's Mansion that day, Suo Ling had told Zhang Yongren that the two of them were actually from the Red Demon Hall, and they were afraid that Zhang's Mansion would not be offended, and Suo Ling also forced Zhang Yongren to ask why Shi Fangyue's son was lost in Jiangling.
At the beginning, Liu Changqing thought that Suo Ling was making up this matter, and it was the first time he heard the name of "Shi Fangyue" at that time, but he didn't remember it too clearly, when he married the saint last time, Shi Fangyue had been here, and he didn't think about it, and Suo Ling never mentioned it later, and of course he didn't ask.
Ye Guhang was surprised when he saw Liu Changqing's dark color, obviously quite surprised by this matter, Ye Guxuan saw that his face was not quite right, and said: "The ability of the Red Demon Hall to find people is very clever. Even if it's such a small child, it can always be found, and it can't disappear out of thin air like no one alive or dead. ”
Liu Changqing was silent, and Ye Guhang continued: "Jiangling's terrain is flat, not as many mountains and rivers as ours here, if you want to find someone, it will be easier. When Shi Fangyue and I were in the main hall, we had a good relationship, and as soon as I heard about it, I hurriedly went to look for it. But I didn't find anyone all the way down, but I was strongly invited by the richest man in Gangneung, Zhangfu, and inadvertently found out one of their secrets......"
Liu Changqing asked, "Yes, I also found it at the time, but most of us are not in the same Fuyuan......
Ye Guhang didn't know about Liu Changqing's affairs in Zhangfu, and even if he knew, Liu Changqing was just a little-known hairy boy at that time, and he wouldn't pay much attention to it.
Ye Guhang heard Liu Changqing say this, and admired the power of this new young hall master, and praised: "The hall master has high skills, of course, it is clear at a glance. I saw that the Zhangfu did not stop building a large number of buildings and courtyards in a short period of time, and I was quite puzzled, and that day I heard someone in the Zhangfu talking about the word 'Red Demon Hall', so in addition to looking for people in those days, another thing was to know what conspiracy and tricks there were in the Zhangfu. ”
Liu Changqing said: "The Zhang Mansion wants to recruit heroes from the rivers and lakes, and intends to dominate the world at a glance. ”
Ye Gu said: "Yes, hall master, you know everything, but Zhang Fu himself is whimsical, and even said that he wants my Red Demon Hall to also obey his door, isn't that a joke? ”
