Outside the Taoist temple, several tall, short, fat and thin men stood at the door waiting.
Everyone's face has the color of the wind and frost like a knife and axe. At a glance, you can see that it is the Tianwangzhai group who have been fighting outside all year round.
The leader was the owner of the village, Lu Longchuan, and the rest were the top leaders in the village, who were called to Beijing to accept the reward.
"We have never had any dealings with Master Yufeng, and I don't know if he wants to see us."
Xiang Tianjie grunted softly, his tone hesitant.
Lu Longchuan shook his head: "It's hard to say, this person is a popular person beside the emperor, he is very favored, and his status is not comparable to me, so he may not be interested in seeing me."
Hearing this, a rude-looking bearded man next to him was dissatisfied, and said loudly: "Brother is too self-deprecating, he is just a bull's nose. If my brother wants to see him, I will rush in and catch him out!"
"Two tigers must not be rude!"
Lu Longchuan immediately reprimanded, paused, and said solemnly: "This real Yufeng is famous all over the world. It is said that he has great supernatural powers, but he is a master of the world. You have given me a temper, and you must not collide with him!"
"What kind of supernatural powers, I've never seen them before. Most of them are fake. They're all one head. If they are smashed with a hammer, they're still dead."
This person is called Shi Hu, nicknamed Erhu. He is good at using double hammers. He is often responsible for charging into battle in the cottage. He is a rude and rude person.
"Erhu, don't speak until later, so as not to offend others." A scribe said, shaking the bamboo fan in his hand, and said with a smile, "This Master Yufeng has a detached status in Beijing, even Prime Minister Qin will give him three If we can have a relationship with him, we can get him a few good words in front of the Holy One, and the benefits will be endless in the future."
"Since the strategist said that, then I will not speak for a while." Shi Hu hummed, showing respect for the scribe.
This scholar, named Sun Rong, was the third leader of Tianwangzhai and the chief military officer of the cottage.
This time, everyone came to visit the real Yufeng, which was greatly facilitated by him.
Lu Longchuan lowered his voice and asked, "Master, it's just a matter of meeting and getting to know Master Yufeng. We have no relationship with him and no reason, so we must invite him out of the mountain?"
With a straight face, Sun Rong nodded and said, "Yes, we have done a good job in pacifying the bandits this time. Although we have a reward, the court also asked me to wait until next spring to go to Huyang to suppress bandits. We must ask experts to help us on this trip, otherwise the future will be dim!"
After speaking, he paused and continued:
"Yanbei and Taidong bandits are rampant, but fortunately I was once the leader of the green forest in the north, and all those who could be surrendered were surrendered, and those that should be destroyed were destroyed, and the rest were stragglers. ... But that Huyang is different, it is the most dangerous place in the world!
That Chen Feng is unparalleled in martial arts, and under his command Longwangzhai also has 100,000 horses, and the Huyang water network is dense, we are not good at water warfare, and the long-distance soldiers are tired and tired, but the other side is tyrannical and waits for work. The leader of the enemy, if it fails, all the brothers will be ruined there... So if you can't ask an expert to come out to help, I will be more fortunate in this trip. "
Everyone nodded.
In addition to getting to know people, another goal of this rash meeting was to ask this expert to help them eradicate bandits.
After all, the "Dragon King" Chen Feng's force has shocked the past and the present. If they can't find a way to overcome the enemy, they really feel that they have no chance of winning.
If this Master Yufeng really masters the fairy sect that calls the wind and calls the rain as rumored, then perhaps he is one of the few people in the world who can deal with Chen Feng.
"I hope he's not a deceiver... and he's willing to see us."
Xiang Tianjie sighed.
At this time, the Daoist Zhike came out and greeted everyone: "My master has an invitation, you all come with me."
The group of Tianwangzhai suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly entered the Taoist temple, followed the Taoist around a few yards, and soon arrived at the main house.
As soon as everyone entered, they saw Zhou Jing dressed as Taoist priests, and they all bowed.
"I have seen the real person Shenxiao Fengling."
"Don't be too polite."
Zhou Jing waved his hand, his eyes swept across the mountain of these people, and finally fell on Lu Longchuan, smiling slightly.
"I was in Beijing, and I heard for a long time that Lord Lu was recruited by the imperial court, and he knew how to return when he lost his way. I was fortunate to meet him today."
Lu Longchuan was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect this person to be so polite. He was instantly flattered and responded with hands: "The real person is famous all over the world. I have always admired him.
The two exchanged a small wave of business, and then Zhou Jing greeted everyone to take a seat and asked the disciples to serve tea to everyone.
After chatting for a while, everyone got to know each other.
After discovering that the powerful Master Yufeng was not arrogant and domineering, but rather kind, Tianwangzhai and his party were sure that there were no more worries in their hearts.
Sun Rong gave Lu Longchuan a wink.
Lu Longchuan understood it, moistened his throat, changed his words, and said sternly:
"To be honest, I am waiting for the door today because I am asking for a real person."
"But it doesn't matter." Zhou Jing didn't change his face.
Lu Longchuan said in a serious tone, "The official family ordered me to go to Huyang to suppress the bandits. The bandit leader Chen Feng is extremely skilled in martial arts and has a wide range of soldiers under his command. I am afraid that we are not rivals, and it will ruin the imperial plan. After thinking about it, only the real person has the ability to subdue this person, so I came here to ask the real person to help me."
After listening to Zhou Jing, his expression was not surprised, and he asked with a smile: "Is there an decree in the official family, let the poor road go with the army?"
"It's never been..."
"Well, since this matter has nothing to do with me, why should Pindao help you?"
Zhou Jing's tone was unhurried.
Lu Longchuan sighed: "I know this is abrupt, but that Chen Feng's turmoil in Huyang has become a serious problem for the court's confidants. If time passes, it will become a gangrene of bones, which is useless to Jiangshan, society and Ji... I have heard that the real person was born to seek the secret of heaven and protect the peace. , This demon Chen Feng is harmful to the people and needs help, but I am not an opponent, so I have to ask for help, and then I come to the door on my own."
Sun Rong got up, bowed and gave a big gift, and interjected: "I also hope that the real person will take action to subdue the demons for the sake of the people of Limin."
Zhou Jing smiled and his face remained unchanged.
He flicked the dust off his hands, looked around at everyone, and suddenly asked, "I heard that Chen Feng defended the people's grievances in Huyang, claiming to be doing justice for the sky, and you were once a member of the Green Forest, and also acted similarly, what do you think? "
Everyone's faces stiffened, and they were a little dumb.
Sun Rong did not change his face, and said:
"Though acting like this, although it was quick for a while, it broke the rules of the world. It seems like a good and righteous act, but it is actually a lack of consideration. The court has its own laws. People's livelihood is more difficult, chaotic and withered. I have been in the green forest for many years to understand this truth, and finally I lost my way and was called by the court to serve the country, but Chen Feng insisted on going his own way.
"It makes sense." Zhou Jing nodded with a smile: "Since you have such knowledge, Pindao is willing to help you."
Hearing this, Lu Longchuan and the others showed joy.
But at this time, Zhou Jing changed his words and said slowly:
"However, I am in charge of alchemy for the official family, and the official family may not be willing to let me leave the capital. It is better for you to formally submit a book and request that the poor road be dispatched to accompany the army. ."
"This… "
Lu Longchuan looked embarrassed.
They are not qualified to go to court on weekdays, and this time they entered the capital to discuss merit and performance. They were able to face the Holy Spirit. They had finished seeing them not long ago, so it is not easy to do it now.
Seeing this, Zhou Jing shook his head and said, "Although I have my heart to help, I have to be nodded by the officials, and I will wait for the good news from everyone."
After speaking, he served tea to the guests.
Lu Longchuan and the others had no choice but to say goodbye and leave.
The group went out of the Taoist temple and looked at each other as they watched the door closed.
Shi Hu angrily hummed:
"Hmph, this Niubi is nice to say, but I don't want to help, and I don't want to be honest, so I use this excuse to prevaricate! He looks weird, maybe he's the emperor's old man's favorite, so he's like this. Prosperity and wealth, how could the emperor let him do such hard work?"

"Shut up, don't talk nonsense! How can you be a fool here?!"
Lu Longchuan was startled and scolded furiously.
"Don't say it, don't say it." Shi Hu turned his head away, still indignant.
Lu Longchuan was so angry that his chest heaved, but it took a while to calm down. Looking at Sun Rong, he frowned and said:
"Master, look at this..."
Sun Rong shook the bamboo fan and pondered: "The real person has already agreed, we just need to get the approval of the official family... Zhaizhu, it seems that we have to visit 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 he had always been the gateway of their Tianwangzhai in Beijing. If there is a choice, Lu Longchuan doesn't want to be a traitor, but it's done, and they can only act on Qin Song's breath.
On the other side, in the main house of the Taoist Temple.
Zhou Jing sent the group of Tianwangzhai away, sat back in place and drank tea slowly, his eyes became playful.
"Meeting with Chen Feng in the past...not bad."
He agreed to the request of Tianwangzhai and his party, and he had some calculations.
Now that Chen Feng's reputation as No. 1 in the world is firmly established, it is also the way to make Bill's popularity in the past.
There was no chance to play in Beijing. This time, I can let the two apostles touch each other and make a big scene, which not only reflects Chen Fengguanjue's contemporary force, but also shows the power of his own "skill".
As long as the movement is big enough and amazing enough, and it shows the strength to "compete with Chen Feng", 80% of them will be offered by the court in the future as a backer to restrain Chen Feng, which will be beneficial to both apostles.
In addition, he went on an expedition with Tianwangzhai, and he could also part-time traitor and send confidential information to Chen Feng.
After all, Tianwangzhai has a large number of soldiers and generals, and it is not easy to deal with. Head-to-head battle damage will not be low, but it will make the court laugh out loud.
The so-called soldier never tires of deceit, it is better to install a spy in the enemy's army, so that Chen Feng can control the enemy's movement and deal with it more easily.
Moreover, Lingfengzi's identity was so white that no one would suspect that he was sending information, and he was a stable group.
As long as the Tianwangzhai army is defeated, even if Lingfengzi withdraws, it is not because of his lack of ability, but because the army is not strong enough, and it will not damage his image much.
"This wave is reliable... I can even bring some money and send it to Chen Feng on the way. It's like a courier."
Zhou Jing smacked his lips, thinking to himself.
…
In the evening, Qin Xiangfu.
"That Lingfengzi really said that?"
Qin Song was a little surprised after hearing what Lu Longchuan said.
"It's absolutely true." Lu Longchuan nodded.
"Is that so..."
Qin Song was thoughtful, and subconsciously pointed his finger on the table.
He suddenly realized that this might be a good opportunity to kill someone with a knife.
Since Ling Fengzi entered Beijing, the holy scroll Zhilong made people jealous and envious, some people flattered, and some people secretly feared.
Although the real Yufeng did not intend to fight for power, some people still regarded him as a thorn in their side. On the surface, everyone gives him face, but in fact, some people want to get rid of it quickly.
Qin Song is not one of them, so he can't be called hostile, but the emperor's favor on Lingfengzi does make him feel threatened.
Moreover, Lingfengzi's alchemy method is useful, and countless officials and gentry join in, making this person more and more connected, and his status is detached.
Qin Song, who has enjoyed the benefits of medicinal herbs, also exclaimed the magic.
- Because of this, powerful officials like him are even more afraid of Lingfengzi.
Although Lingfengzi is only a minor official of the Sitianjian now, he 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 completely unimportant.
In this court, the greatest power comes from the emperor. Even a prime minister, being dismissed is only a matter of the emperor's words.
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 fewer competitors who are very predictable, which is not a bad thing in Qin Song's view.
As for the emperor's longing for immortality... let's forget it as soon as possible, why do you want to live long in the dragon chair, when the time comes, you should die.
"I know the truth about this, you go back and wait for the news."
Qin Song regained his senses, and his tone was neither salty nor dank.
No matter if things work out or not, he doesn't plan to fight the evil spirit Fengzi or the emperor... So let others take the lead, he has too many cards in his hand.
