Chapter 5: The Man Behind the Scenes
Hearing this question, Yang Kang was a little surprised, this was not the person he arranged, but a disciple of the Dirty Clothes Sect, he didn't expect that the disciples of the Dirty Clothes Sect had such a strong sense of justice, and they actually questioned Lu Youjiao at such a critical moment, is this the rhythm of the Dirty Clothes Sect's infighting?
Lu Youjiao on the Xuanyuan platform faced the questioning, did not panic, nor did he immediately refute, but looked at Elder Liang who was presiding over the meeting, Elder Liang was a little reluctant on his face, but he still stood up.
"This brother, the Khan of Mongolia did reward the beggars with money, but Lord Lu did not accept it, and the old gang leader Hong knew about it. Elder Liang came forward to clarify, "In recent days, there have been many rumors about Lord Lu Helm, all of which are slanderous words and should not be trusted. ”
His Majesty the Emperor felt a little weird, and the disciples of the Dirty Clothes Sect questioned Lu Youjiao, but it was the Pure Clothes Sect Elder who came forward to explain, did this Elder Liang speak up or did he have other hidden feelings?
Yang Kang has learned about Elder Liang and Elder Jian, these two elders are different from Peng Sihai, Peng Sihai is active, keen on power, and easy to win over, while Liang Jian's two elders are more old-fashioned, although they are not in harmony with the dirty clothes faction, they do not have the intention of betraying the beggar gang to join other forces, and it is extremely difficult to win over, otherwise he will start when he opens the seal.
It's just that in this way, His Majesty's plan to ruin Lu Youjiao's reputation has come to naught.
After Elder Liang finished explaining, the disciple of the Dirty Cloak Sect expressed his approval and did not raise any further objections, and the unfavorable rumors about Lu Youjiao were thus self-defeating.
Elder Liang was unwilling to do this, he naturally knew that Lu Youjiao was innocent, as an elder who guaranteed logistics, he was responsible for the accounts of the beggars' property in and out, and the Mobei rudder did not have the behavior of greedy ink, but this great opportunity to fight the prestige of the dirty clothes faction was lost.
However, thinking about the overall situation of the beggar gang, Elder Liang finally endured it. After all, as the person who commanded behind the scenes of the beggar gang said, now that it is necessary to be unanimous with the outside world, the dispute between the Dirty Clothes Sect and the Pure Clothes Sect is an internal affair of the Beggar Gang, and he even knows that the disciple of the Dirty Clothes Sect who questioned Lu Youjiao was also arranged by that person, and this is just a scene.
"Elder Jian and I are both old, so we won't participate. Elder Liang pushed back. "Lord Lu and Lord Mu seem to be the expectation of the public, Lord Lu is familiar with the help, experienced, Mu Helm is a disciple of the old leader, although he is not very old, but he can take on the heavy responsibility, and please discuss for a moment with all the brothers, and choose a new gang leader from the two. ”
This change gave Yang Kang a bad premonition, this is a posture of fair competition. If this is the case, Lu Youjiao's chances of winning are very great, once Lu Youjiao becomes the leader of the beggar gang, then the candidate for the next leader of the beggar gang must be Guo Jing, and the beggar gang will become the mortal enemy of the Jin country.
Fortunately, the emperor still has a backhand, and he doesn't care about this change.
Hundreds of beggar disciples under the Xuanyuan stage were talking in a low voice, and at this time, four beggar disciples carried two baskets of pebbles, one of which was white. One basket is black, and this pebble is common on the tidal flats at the foot of Junshan Mountain. Warm as jade, round and lovely.
"Brothers, if you have a new master in your heart, choose a stone and put it in a bamboo basket on a high platform. Elder Liang pointed to the bamboo basket on the high platform and explained, "The black stone is the Lord of Lu Helm, and the white stone is the Lord of Mu Helm, which is limited to one stick of incense. The one who gets more stones is the new leader of the gang. ”
A incense stick is lit on the Xuanyuan platform, and the incense stick burns for a long time, also known as the incense inch, which can be used to keep time.
As the incense sticks gradually became shorter, more and more beggars helped the disciples to get up. Coming to the bamboo basket and picking up a black or white pebble and putting it in the bamboo basket, Yang Kang roughly estimated that there were more disciples of the beggar gang who picked up the black stone, and it seemed that there was no suspense about the choice of the leader of the beggar gang.
After a stick of incense, Elder Liang, who had a hesitant face, put away the bamboo basket and prepared to count the stones.
The people present were not blind, knowing that Lu Youjiao was about to become the new leader of the beggar gang, just waiting for the final announcement, at this time, a big boat came to the side of Junshan, and a beautiful woman walked down from the boat, and the woman was followed by dozens of black-clothed gangsters, and it was Qiu Qianqi of the Iron Palm Gang who arrived.
This is the back hand arranged by Yang Kang, no matter who is elected as the leader of the beggar gang conference, Qiu Qianqi will appear, if Mu Nianci is the gang leader, then he is here to congratulate, if Lu Youjiao is the gang leader, then he is here to make trouble, according to Peng Lianhu, Qiu Qianqi's martial arts are almost the same as Qiu Qianren, and there are few opponents in the world.
The beggar gang disciples on the Xuanyuan platform saw the people of the Iron Palm Gang coming and clamored, the grudge between the two gangs is getting deeper and deeper, and the next step of the beggar gang is to fight with the Iron Palm Gang, at this moment the people of the Iron Palm Gang dare to appear on Jun Mountain, this is undoubtedly a naked provocation.
"I heard that your beggar gang is here to choose a new gang leader, have you chosen it?" Qiu Qianqi glanced at the beggar gang and asked as if no one was around.
The eyes of the beggar gang disciples all looked at Lu Youjiao, in their minds, Lu Youjiao was already the new leader of the beggar gang, and the Mu helm master had not appeared, Lu Youjiao stood up and came to Qiu Qianqi.
"This lady must be the Qiu master who is known as the Iron Palm Lotus by the people of the rivers and lakes?" asked Lu Youjiao.
"I can't believe that after all these years, there will still be people who remember me. Qiu Qianqi said domineeringly, "You are the new leader of the beggar gang? The grievances between our two gangs should also be settled, if you win against me, my Iron Palm Gang will be disbanded, if you lose, the beggar gang will also be disbanded." ”
Lu Youjiao is quite speechless, Qiu Qianqi is famous in the area of the two lakes, this is not only about her beauty and martial arts, but also her domineering, Qiu Qianqian has been practicing martial arts on the Iron Palm Peak for more than ten years, Qiu Qianzhang is a liar who does not learn and has no skills, and most of the affairs in the Iron Palm Gang are handled by Qiu Qianqi.
According to Yang Kang's concept, this Iron Palm Lotus is the eldest sister in the gang, even if she has been missing for several years, once she returns to the Iron Palm Gang, she will soon return to power, which shows that she has a very high prestige in the Iron Palm Gang, and Peng Lianhu has been in the Iron Palm Gang for two years and is just a guest in the role.
At this time, in front of hundreds of beggar gang disciples, Lu Youjiao can't escape, and his character doesn't allow him to escape, this is a duel between the two major gangs, he is very confident in this, of course, not because of his martial arts, but because he believes in the person who is hidden behind the scenes of the beggar gang.
"That being the case, Na Lu came to learn the tricks of Master Qiu. Lu Youjiao held a bamboo stick in his hand and responded in a deep voice.
"Lord Lu Helm, let me do it this time. A crisp voice came.
While speaking, a girl came out from behind Xuanyuan Terrace, the moonlight shone on the girl's face, and the girl was like an elf who fell into the mortal world against the background of the night. (To be continued......)
