"What! All the senior members of the Shelin Society are missing??!"
Inside the Red Whale, Hong Mingzi suddenly stood up, dumbfounded.
Not only him, Chen Ying beside him, but also other internal and external envoys and elders present at the meeting were all depressed and silent.
"Shelin Guild... The leader of the club is a master at the peak of Concentration, how could it be..." Chen Ying opened his eyes wide and said in a low voice.
In his heyday, he was about the same as the leader of the Shelin Guild. Now this person has disappeared without a sound. Doesn't this mean that once he encounters such a thing, he will disappear suddenly without anyone noticing.
An internal affairs officer turned pale and said softly, "Could it be that he ran away..."
"It's absolutely impossible!" Hong Mingzi shook his head, "That kid Zhang Yuandong is definitely not such a cowardly person."
"What the hell is that..."
A group of people calmed down one after another, but suddenly they all thought of something by coincidence.
To be able to solve the huge forest-related association so easily, and to easily disappear the masters of concentration, the levels and forces involved... What else can there be besides those existences that are opposed to the aristocratic family
Hong Mingzi was exhausted physically and mentally, and he let out a long sigh. All kinds of things happened one after another in the past few days, which made him overwhelmed and unable to take care of them.
He glanced at the people on both sides. Most of the strongest experts of the Red Whale Gang are here. Except for a few foreign envoys who are out on missions, this is the top force of the whole gang.
But so what? Facing Red Square, facing ghosts and monsters, they are all chickens and dogs, vulnerable to a single blow.
And up to now, only a few people know about the abnormality of the Zhen family, and most of the others are still kept in the dark.
"This matter must be reported...?" an internal affairs envoy whispered.
"Whether there is such a pressing existence, we must first find out." Elder Ouyang said in a deep voice. "Also, why didn't you see Luwaishou? I heard that he is in retreat again?"
Ouyang Ningzhi and Wang Lao were considered to be the first people who met Lu Sheng back then, but now they were in trouble, and when she mentioned Lu Sheng, everyone's hearts immediately tightened.
The big name outside Lusheng Road is famous in the entire Red Whale Gang, and even in other gangs along the mountain city.
Killing the deputy gang leader, burning the Song Family Village, and under his control, the Feiyingtang has more and more control over Yanshan City, forcing many other forces to retreat one after another, and had to give up part of their original interests.
Although Lu Sheng didn't take many shots, he was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people several times. His strength and fierceness made everyone in the gang think of him.
"Luwaishou is still in retreat, and did not come to the regular meeting. But let me relay the story." Yu Lianzi, who was sitting in an inconspicuous place, answered slowly.
As the third strongest person in the current gang, Lu Sheng's name is extremely important in everyone's heart.
"The trouble this time is near Yanshan City. Yanshan City is also under the jurisdiction of Luwaishou. Why don't you ask Luwaishou for his opinion before making plans." A foreign envoy suggested. The meaning in the words is obvious, it is to push this matter to Lu Sheng to investigate and deal with it in advance.
Yu Lianzi glanced at this person. "My lord is currently in retreat. I'm afraid I don't have time to deal with it for the time being. This matter is urgent. Why don't you recommend another person for further investigation."
"Let's discuss this matter later." Hong Mingzi looked at the people in front of him, knowing that no one was willing to take over this difficult matter.
Everyone is thinking, as long as they don't open their mouths to take over, the matter has to be resolved by the jurisdiction along the road along the mountain city.
"Okay, the next thing is that there are many turmoil and troubles in the north, and Yuanli City and other three cities in the north have sent a request for help, and the applicants will go down to deal with the troubles. Which of you is willing to go?" Hong Mingzi said weakly.
The atmosphere was still a bit depressing and dull just now, but now it became lively, many people rushed to sign up first, and everyone didn't want to stay in Yanshan City, which seemed safe but was actually extremely troublesome.
Chen Ying saw it and shook his head slightly.
... ... ... ... ... ... .
Quiet room.
"Is this an external skill similar to the bone shrinking skill? After the hard work is completed, it reaches its peak, and it is to freely control every inch of the body's muscles and bones."
Lu Sheng felt a special change in his body. This change seemed terrifying, but it was actually just an enhanced version of the bone shrinking skill, or the muscle-changing skill.
It is equivalent to forcibly compressing the originally powerful and huge body into its current appearance. Once it bursts out with all its strength, it will instantly return to the previous state.
"The accumulation of hard skills can increase my strength to an inhuman level. At the same time, it can also strengthen my body, making it hard to hurt with swords and greatly increasing my defense. But what can really kill ghosts and monsters depends on internal skills." Lu Sheng stood at the original position. His eyes flickered.
"I just don't know if my current physical body can be upgraded to another level." Although he doesn't know how strong he is now, he has definitely reached the level of restraint.
But the strange Red Square of the aristocratic family is not just a layer. The Zhen family is gone. If you want to be fully prepared, you must first consider all possible dangers.
"What kind of force is Red Square.... Knowing yourself and the enemy is the only way to be victorious. It seems that you have to collect information at the same time. Before that, the Yin energy is exhausted, and there are two skills such as treasure piles that have not been practiced. Let's go find it first." Looking for Yin Qi." He immediately thought of the jade pendant in Chen Jiaorong's hand.
After leaving the quiet room, he opened the door and left the yard, and immediately saw a subordinate waiting outside.
"I would like to inform you that the head and vice-chairman of the forest-related society in the city are missing together. People from the magistrate's yamen invite you to attend the meeting. There are also people from the gang to inform you that there is a regular meeting. Lord Yulianzi has already gone for you. Headquarters." The guarding subordinates are another close guard that Lu Sheng asked Ning San to form.
The guards all give the best resource treatment, and then distribute the simplified version of the hard skills of bear fighting. Lu Sheng divided it into two layers, and passed the first layer to everyone.
Although the technique is simple, but the effect is good, it can resist a certain amount of sharp weapon assassination, and wear a layer of leather armor on the outside, it is not a problem for ordinary three or five people to fight.
This is his team.
In principle, it is not allowed to teach Gangzhong martial arts, but as long as he is not too much, Xiong Fighter is still the first level of the simplified version, so it is not too troublesome.
"The magistrate's office?" After Lu Sheng became the foreign chief, he had never formally met with any official. This is the first time.
"What level is the magistrate's yamen in Yanshan City?" He asked casually.
"Er..." The person who complained was bewildered.
Instead, another guard at the side quickly answered.
"My lord, according to the system along the mountain city, it can be regarded as a first-class prefectural city, but it is not a big prefectural city, so the yamen here are equivalent to between the fourth and fifth ranks."
"Oh..." Lu Sheng nodded, the yamen in Jiulian City is only a seventh rank, and it really can't be compared with the officials here.
But now, for the Red Whale Gang with the Zhen family standing behind them, a fourth-rank and fifth-rank yamen is nothing. It's not enough to invite him to attend the conference.
It's just that he thought about it again, if the Red Square was really attacked in an all-round way, then it would be difficult for him to attend the next Lao Shizi meeting at the same time by himself, and see that the court's attitude is not bad.
"Go ask Xu Chuan and Ning San to come with me." He ordered.
"yes."
The subordinates quickly called Xu Chui and Ning San over, and Lu Sheng took them into the carriage, and went straight to Yanshan City's largest authority, the magistrate's yamen.
The regional system of the Song Dynasty is divided into seven levels: Tingzhou, prefecture, county, township and village.
Yanshan City and Jiulian City are also prefectural cities, which govern many counties, but the prefectures are also divided into three levels: large, medium and small. Dafu is the only prefectural city in Beizhou, Zhongfu is a prosperous city like Yanshan City, and Xiaofu is like Jiulian City, with strict divisions between levels.
On the carriage, Ning San was also spreading the information he knew about this aspect to Lu Sheng.
"Yanshan City is the third largest city in Beizhou, so it is also of a high level, and there is also a powerful Feilian army stationed here."
"I've also heard of Fei Lianjun's name." Lu Sheng nodded.
"Yuan Xu, the commander-in-chief of the Feilian Army, is an elder who is also named in our Red Whale Gang. It's just a name." Ning San explained.
After some explanation, Lu Sheng also quickly figured out the relationship. This Fei Lian Army has also invited high-level members of the Red Whale Gang to serve as martial arts instructors many times, and the relationship between the two parties was quite harmonious.
The carriage quickly and slowly drove to the side entrance of the yamen, Lu Sheng and the three got out of the carriage, and were immediately invited in by the receptionist who had been waiting for a long time.
Entering the inner courtyard, passing through the garden courtyard, the three of them met the prefect of Yanshan, Li Rong County, who was in his prime in Yingsong Hall.
Li Rongxian, with the word Zhenyi and the name of Longshan Jushi, is also a great calligrapher. The Li family behind him has deep-rooted connections in Fucheng.
This person had two mustaches on his lips, a solemn face, dark skin, and was sitting on the main seat, playing with a bluestone seal in his hand.
There are two people sitting next to him, one is the general soldier Yuan Xu, a giant man with big ears and eyes like copper bells, dressed in a military officer's cloth robes, with a straight knife on his waist, sitting on the seat is quite handsome Prestige.
The other person is a Taoist in Tsing Yi with a face like a crown of jade, with a white jade crown on his head and goldfish silk thread tattooed on his cuffs.
"Baifeng from the Supervision Department..." Lu Sheng narrowed his eyes.
The Department of Supervision is the main real power department that supports the imperial court to truly govern the giant cities and states in various places, and it is also the investigation department that specializes in all kinds of strange ghosts and ghosts.
When mediation is needed for demons, ghosts, or family disputes, high-level officials like the prefect of Yanshan have to question the senior members of the Supervision Department before making a decision.
The Supervision Department of Yanshan City has always had no sense of presence, but this time he took the initiative to stand at the front desk, which surprised him a bit.
"Could it be that you got some news secretly?" Lu Sheng's heart trembled. If the news about the Zhen family was spread, it would be difficult to determine the court's attitude.
As for the others, they were ignored and ignored.
"Oh, it's the head of the Red Whale Gang who arrived outside the road." The prefect Li Zhenyi smiled and said, "Come on, let's take a seat."
Lu Sheng strode into the lobby and sat down on the vacant middle seat on the left.
He represents the Red Whale Gang, and the Red Whale Gang is the black and gray leader of the Northern Territory, so his position will naturally not be low. But it will not be too high, after all, it is not an official status.
