Astral Apostle Chapter 236: request
The latest website: Outside the Taoist temple, several tall, short, fat and thin men with their own characteristics stood at the door and waited.
Everyone's face has a look of wind and frost like knives and axes. One can tell at a glance that they are the people from Tianwangzhai who have been fighting outside all year round.
The leader is the village owner Lu Longchuan, and the rest are the top leaders in the village, who were summoned to Beijing to receive the reward.
"We have never had any contact with Master Yufeng, and we don't know if he would like to see us."
Xiang Tianjie muttered in a low voice, hesitating.
Lu Longchuan shook his head: "It's hard to say, this person is a celebrity around the emperor, he is extremely favored, and his status is not comparable to ours, so he may not be interested in seeing us."
Hearing this, a rough-looking bearded man next to him was dissatisfied, and said loudly: "Brother's words are too condescending and self-deprecating, the left and right are just bull-nosed, if brother wants to see him, I will rush in and arrest him !”
"The two tigers must not be rude!"
Lu Longchuan immediately scolded, paused, and said in a deep voice: "This real Yufeng is famous all over the world. It is rumored that he has great supernatural powers. He is an expert in the world. You have to calm me down and don't rush against him!"
"What kind of supernatural powers, I have never seen, most of them are fake, they are all the same head, smashed with a hammer, they are still dead." Erhu muttered, not happy.
This man's name is Shihu, nicknamed Erhu, he is good at wielding double hammers, and he is often in charge of the charge in the cottage. He is a rude and rude man.
"Er Hu, don't open your mouth later, so as not to offend others." A scribe said, shaking the bamboo fan in his hand lightly, and said with a smile: "This real Yufeng has a detached position in Beijing, even if it is Qin Xiang Give him three points, if we can build a relationship with him, and get him to say a few words in front of the Holy One, the benefits will be endless in the future."
"Since the military adviser said so, then I will not speak later." Shi Hu groaned, showing respect for the scribe.
The scribe's name is Sun Rong, and he is the third leader of Tianwangzhai and the chief military officer of the village.
This time, everyone came to pay a visit to Master Yufeng, and it was he who tried his best to facilitate it.
Lu Longchuan lowered his voice and asked: "Military Master, it's nothing more than meeting and getting acquainted with Master Yufeng. We have no relatives or reasons with him, so we must invite him out of the mountain?"
Sun Rong straightened his face, nodded and said: "Yes, we have made great achievements in suppressing the bandits this time. Although there are rewards, the court also asked me to go to Huyang to suppress the bandits in the spring of next year. I must ask for the help of an expert in this trip, otherwise the future will be ruined." Slim!"
Speaking, he paused and continued:
"Bandits and bandits are rampant in Yanbei and Taidong. Fortunately, we were once the leaders of the green forests in the north. Those who can surrender have surrendered, and those who should be eliminated have been eliminated. The rest are stragglers. Ping these two places is regarded as peaceful There is no danger... But Huyang is different, it is the most dangerous place in the world!
That Chen Feng has unrivaled martial prowess, and there are 100,000 troops in Longwangzhai under his command, and the Huyang water network is densely covered. We are not good at water warfare, and we are exhausted from long-distance marches. If you are short enough to attack the enemy's strengths, if you fail, all the brothers will be ruined there... So if you can't ask an expert to come out of the mountain to help, I will be waiting for this trip. "
Everyone nodded.
In this rash visit, in addition to getting to know people, another goal is to ask this expert to help them eliminate banditry.
After all, the "Dragon King" Chen Feng's force is astonishing as ever, if they can't find a way to defeat the enemy, they really feel that they have no chance of winning.
If this Master Yufeng really has mastered the fairy family method of calling wind and rain, as the rumors say, he may be one of the few people in the world who can deal with Chen Feng.
"I hope he is not someone who cheats the world...and is willing to meet us."
Xiang Tianjie sighed.
At this time, Taoist Zhike came out and greeted everyone: "My master is here to invite you, and you all come with me."
The group of Tianwangzhai breathed a sigh of relief, hurried into the Taoist temple, followed the Taoist around a few courtyards, and soon arrived at the main house.
As soon as everyone entered, they saw Zhou Jing dressed as a Taoist priest and saluted one after another.
"I have seen the real person Shenxiao Fengling."
"There is no need to be polite."
Zhou Jing waved his hand, his eyes swept over these people one by one, and finally landed on Lu Longchuan, smiling slightly.
"I was in the middle of the capital. I heard for a long time that Master Lu was recruited by the imperial court. He lost his way and found his way back. I was lucky enough to meet you today."
Lu Longchuan was stunned, he didn't expect this person to be so polite, he was immediately flattered, and he clasped his hands and responded: "The real person is famous all over the world, I have always admired him, today I rashly came to visit, I don't think it's strange to see the real person."
The two exchanged a small amount of business, and then Zhou Jing called everyone to sit down and asked his disciples to serve tea to everyone.
After chatting for a while, everyone knew each other.
After discovering that the powerful real Yufeng was not arrogant and domineering, but rather kind, the people in Tianwangzhai must have no worries.
Sun Rong winked at Lu Longchuan.
Lu Longchuan understood, moistened his throat, changed the topic, and said seriously:
"To be honest, I am waiting for a real person to come to my door today."
"But it's okay to say." Zhou Jing didn't change his face.
Lu Longchuan's tone became serious, and he said: "The official ordered me to go to Huyang to suppress the bandits. The bandit leader Chen Feng is superb in martial arts, and his sailors and soldiers are very skilled. I'm afraid we are not opponents, and it will be bad." The imperial court has a big plan. After thinking about it, only a real person has the ability to subdue this person, so I am here to ask a real person to help us."
After Zhou Jing listened, his expression was not surprised, and he asked with a smile: "Is there an order from the government to let Pindao go out with the army?"
"It's never..."
"Well, since this matter has nothing to do with me, why should the poor help you?"
Zhou Jing's tone was neither urgent nor slow.
Lu Longchuan sighed: "I know this is sudden, but that Chen Feng's chaos in the Huyang boundary has become a serious problem for the imperial court. If time passes, it will become a gangrene, which is of no benefit to the country... I have heard that the real person was born for Looking for the heavenly secret to protect peace, this Chen Feng devil is harmful to the people and needs to be rescued, but we are not opponents, so we have to ask for help, and then come here on our own."
Sun Rong got up, bowed and made a big salute, interjected: "I hope the real person will take action to subdue the devil for the sake of the common people."
Zhou Jing smiled and his face remained unchanged.
He shook the dust casually, looked around the crowd, and suddenly asked: "I heard that Chen Feng defended the people in Huyang, claiming to do justice for the heavens. What do you think?"
Everyone's face froze, a little dumb.
Sun Rong didn't change his face, and said:
"This kind of behavior, although it is said to be quick for a while, it breaks the rules of the world. It seems to be a benevolent act, but it is actually out of consideration. The court has its own laws. If it is repeatedly ignored and punished by itself, the court will be orderly. Once it goes bad, the people’s livelihood will be more difficult, chaos and withering. I waited in the green forest for many years to understand this truth, and finally got lost, and was inspired by the court to serve the country, but Chen Feng insisted on going his own way.
"It makes sense." Zhou Jing smiled and nodded: "Since you have such insight, Pindao is willing to help you."
Hearing this, Lu Longchuan and others showed joy.
But at this moment, Zhou Jing changed the subject and said slowly:
"However, I am in charge of refining alchemy for the officials, so the officials may not be willing to let me leave the capital. Why don't you formally hand in the papers and ask for the dispatch of the poor Taoist army to go out with the army? So I went out to help."
"This..."
Lu Longchuan looked troubled.
They are usually not qualified to go to court, but this time they went to Beijing to discuss meritorious deeds and rewards.
Seeing this, Zhou Jing shook his head and said: "Although I want to help, I still need the approval of the officials. I will wait for the good news from everyone."
After finishing speaking, he served tea to see off the guests.
Lu Longchuan and the others had no choice but to take their leave and leave.
A group of people left the Taoist temple, watched the gate close, and then looked at each other in blank dismay.
Shihu snorted angrily:
"Hmph, what Niubi said sounds good. I don't want to help, and I don't want to be honest, so I use this excuse to prevaricate! With such glory and wealth, why would the old emperor let him do such a hard job?"
"Shut up, don't talk nonsense! How can you let you fool around here?!"
Lu Longchuan was taken aback, and angrily reprimanded him.
"If you don't say it, you don't say it." Shi Hu turned his head away, still angrily.
Lu Longchuan was so angry that his chest heaved up and down, and it took him a while to calm down. He looked at Sun Rong, frowned and said:
"Military division, look at this..."
Shaking the bamboo fan, Sun Rong muttered: "The real person has already agreed, and the only thing left is to get the approval of the officials... Village Master, it seems that we have to pay a visit to Prime Minister Qin."
Hearing this, Lu Longchuan sighed slightly.
Qin Song was one of the seven thieves of the current dynasty, and at the same time had always been their gateway to the Heavenly King Village in Beijing. If there is a choice, Lu Longchuan doesn't want to have the relationship with the treacherous officials, but it's a done deal, and they can only rely on Qin Song to act.
On the other side, in the main house of the Taoist temple.
Zhou Jing sent off the Tianwangzhai group and sat back to his original position to drink tea slowly, his eyes became playful.
"It's not bad to meet Chen Feng in the past."
He agreed to the request of Tianwangzhai and his party, and he had a lot of hesitation.
Now that Chen Feng's title of No. 1 in the world has been confirmed, it is also a way to make Bill famous in the past.
There is no chance to use a mobile phone in Beijing. This time, the two apostles can touch each other and create a big scene. It not only reflects Chen Feng's unsurpassed contemporary military power, but also demonstrates the power of his own "skills".
As long as the movement is big enough, shocking enough, and he shows the power to "resist" Chen Feng, he will probably be confessed by the court in the future, and it will be used as a backing to restrain Chen Feng, which is beneficial to both apostles.
In addition, he went out with Tianwangzhai, and he could also work as a traitor and send confidential information to Chen Feng.
After all, Tianwangzhai has many soldiers and many generals, and it is not easy to deal with. Head-to-head combat losses will not be low, but it will make the court laugh out loud.
The so-called soldiers are not tired of deceit, it is better to install a spy in the enemy army, so that Chen Feng can control the movement of the enemy army, and it is easier to deal with it.
Furthermore, Lingfengzi's identity was so innocent that no one would suspect that he was delivering information, so he was a stable group.
As long as the Tianwangzhai army is defeated, even if Lingfengzi withdraws, it's not that he is incapable, but that the army is not strong enough, and his image will not be damaged much.
"This wave is reliable... I can even bring some money and send it to Chen Feng on the way, so it will be a courier."
Zhou Jing smacked his lips, thinking secretly.
…
In the evening, Qin Xiangfu.
"That Lingfengzi really said that?"
After listening to Lu Longchuan's words, Qin Song was a little surprised.
"It's absolutely true." Lu Longchuan nodded.
"So..."
Qin Song was thoughtful, subconsciously pointing his fingers at the table.
He suddenly realized that this might be a good opportunity to borrow a knife to kill someone.
Since Lingfengzi entered the capital, the prosperity of the holy family has made people jealous and envious.
Although Master Yufeng has no intention of fighting for power, some people still regard him as a thorn in his side. On the surface, everyone gave him face, but in fact, some people wanted to get rid of him quickly.
Qin Song is not one of them, not to mention hostility, but the emperor's favor for Lingfengzi does make him feel threatened.
Moreover, Lingfengzi's alchemy method is useful, and countless officials and gentry support him, which makes this person's network more and more extensive, and his status is detached.
Qin Song also enjoyed the benefits of the elixir, and exclaimed about its magical effect.
——Because of this, a powerful official like him is even more afraid of Lingfengzi.
Although Lingfengzi is now just a small official of the Sitianjian~IndoMTL.com~ and has no power... But Qin Song deeply understands that as long as he becomes a celebrity in the eyes of the emperor, his official position is not important at all.
In this court, the greatest power comes from the emperor, even if it is a prime minister, being dismissed is only a matter of a few words from the emperor.
If you say you are white, you will be innocent, if you say you are black, then you will be full of evil.
Without Lingfengzi, there will be less reasonable competitors, which is not a bad thing in Qin Song's view.
As for the immortality that the emperor yearns for... let's forget about it, why do you want to live forever, you sitting on the dragon chair?
"The truth of this matter is known, you go back and wait for the news."
Qin Song came back to his senses, his tone was neither salty nor weak.
Regardless of whether the matter is successful or not, he does not intend to deal with the evil spirit Fengzi or the emperor... so let someone else do it, he has too many cards in his hand.
