Chapter 196 Meeting
Fifteen days later, Zuo Zhicheng was wearing a white training suit and walking in a layered courtyard.
This manor is full of high walls and barriers, with five steps and one whistle and ten steps, making it as strong as a fortress.
Zuo Zhicheng's infrared vision was full of open and secret whistles, scattered in various rockery, courtyards, flowers and woods.
‘What a strict guard, what a luxurious courtyard.’ From the arrangement of the courtyard in front of him, Zuo Zhicheng could feel that Zhu Yuwen's ambition was definitely not small. If his courtyard and private army of this type were in the Central Plains, he would have been reported to the court and his family would have been confiscated and his family would have been exterminated.
But in the New World, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the court is far away, making him completely the local emperor here.
Qing Yueqiu walked in front of Zuo Zhicheng, her eyes a little nervous. She knew that there were a few people in the top management of Nanwan. Moreover, Qing Yueyang had a strong man like Zuo Zhicheng this time, and many people were very dissatisfied or jealous, and they must have wanted to disagree with their relationship.
However, there was no sign of worry on Zuo Zhicheng's face. Instead, he looked at the equipment of the soldiers around him curiously. Seeing the chain mail, silver swords and guns on the other party, and the uniform musket teams that appeared from time to time, Zuo Zhicheng thought to himself: "The equipment of these soldiers is very good. It seems that the sea trade of Xinlu is indeed profitable. He actually relied on this business to raise such an army."
Originally, the patrol supervisor had no military power, but Zhu Yuwen, in the name of the personal guard in the mansion, trained and expanded little by little over the past ten years, and created an elite unit called the Tiger and Wolf Army.
Although the number of people is only 3,000, it is well-equipped, well-trained, and even equipped with various firearms. These 3,000 people are enough to fight against the 30,000 troops of ordinary people.
Zuo Zhicheng and Qing Yueqiu walked to a hall where more than a dozen men had sat down, and Qing Yueyang was among them, and they smiled at Zuo Zhicheng. As for the others, after they saw Zuo Zhicheng, they all swept over with a scrutiny look.
The man sitting at the top was an old man with white hair and beard. In Zuo Zhicheng's infrared gaze, the old man could clearly see that his strength was not strong and he did not have innate energy, which was probably the level of ordinary people practicing martial arts for a long time.
However, Zuo Zhicheng could feel a vigorous vitality from the other party. Obviously, although the other party's physical strength was not strong, he was treated with the best care. He had the most expensive food and various medicinal materials to supplement his body every day, and insisted on practicing martial arts, which made him look quite old, but he still had a clear mind and flexible body.
When he saw Zuo Zhicheng appear, the old man stood up with a smile, walked quickly towards the gate, and went up to meet him.
"Master Zuo, I've been so happy to hear you're coming these days." He grabbed Zuo Zhicheng's left arm with both hands and laughed: "It's true that it's better to meet than to be famous. Master Zuo's courage is worthy of the four words "Nanwan No. 1."
Obviously, the old man was the patrolman of Nanwan. Zhu Yuwen. Seeing him pulling Zuo Zhicheng to his seat so enthusiastically, the people around him looked different, but some people's eyes flashed with a hint of unpleasantness. Especially a middle-aged handsome man with black hair but gray hair and a somewhat similar face to Qingyueyang, there seemed to be a hint of unpredictable light flashing in his eyes.
However, Zuo Zhicheng did not continue to be polite with Zhu Yuwen. He had always been straightforward and said straight to the point: "Mr. Zhu, I don't know what you think of my proposal?"
Before Zhu Yuwen could speak when he heard Zuo Zhicheng's words, the middle-aged man with gray hair said, "Master Zuo, you have indeed practiced martial arts well. This time, killing the Wheel Dharma King is considered a great contribution. However, if you want to read the Taoist secrets of my Shadow Corps, you are still a little bit short of it."
"Oh? I don't know who you are?" Zuo Zhicheng glanced over and stared at the middle-aged man. Under the infrared scanning, the strength of this person's body was fully exposed.
Orange, forty-two percent. This is already the strongest person that everyone here, or it should be said that Zuo Zhicheng has seen since entering the city, and only Qing Yueyang can compare with him.
As Zuo Zhicheng looked at him, the middle-aged man seemed to feel the great pressure, and his eyes suddenly became extremely solemn, and he said slowly: "I am Qing Yueying, deputy commander of the Shadow Corps."
Qing Yueying, this person had already heard Qing Yueqiu introduce him before Zuo Zhicheng entered the city. He may be the biggest obstacle to Zuo Zhicheng's action this time.
This person is Qing Yueyang's uncle. He is old-fashioned and conservative, but he is also one of the only three masters of the shadow corps. In addition to him, the other two masters of the entire shadow corps are the owner of the Zizai Pavilion, He Zizai and the regiment leader Qing Yueyang.
As for the powerful Taoist arts, it is rumored that there is a Taoist priest with advanced Taoism hidden in Zhu Yuwen's mansion, but no one knows who he is and what Taoist arts he is good at.
Because of his elders and strength, Qing Yueying usually has many control over Qing Yueyang's leadership. Moreover, Qing Yueying himself hates Taoism very much, believing that Taoism is the source of chaos and a threat to rebellious rule.
Zuo Zhicheng could understand his mentality. Just like the Qing Dynasty in China that hated muskets in the past, it was a disgust caused by ignorance and conservatism. Of course, it also had something to do with his own lifelessness and inability to practice Taoism.
It is precisely because of his own disgust of Taoism that Qingyueqiu was far away from the power of the Shadow Corps and was later sent far away to Xinlu.
Now that Zuo Zhicheng wants to watch the Taoist materials and secret books collected by the Shadow Corps, he also needs to use the power of the Shadow Corps to collect life clusters. He may not agree too much.
So I saw Qing Yueying frowning and said, "The Taoist technique is too dangerous. Once this information is revealed, it will probably be a disaster. Master Zuo, can you bear this responsibility?"
When Zuo Zhicheng heard Qing Yueying's words seemingly blamed and unintentional, he curled his lips slightly: "The Red Sun Monk is a master of human appearance. He wants to kill me, but now he is seeing Yama.
His junior brother, the Wheel-Turning King, was even more powerful, but I was beaten to kneel down by two moves, and three moves took his life.
The Destruction Dharma King besieged me and was blinded by me.
Do you think I can bear it?" As he spoke, a very cold breath came out from Zuo Zhicheng's body and spread out in all directions. The cold and heart-wrenching chill made everyone around him tremble.
Qing Yueying also changed color at this moment. He never expected Zuo Zhicheng to be so direct, completely ignoring all the scenes and his identity and background, and just yelled directly. All his previous plans were lost.
What made him even more uncomfortable was that under the invasion of the evil cold air, he wanted to open his mouth to speak, but his mouth opened and closed several times, but he didn't say a word.
He wanted to refute Zuo Zhicheng, but he didn't dare to say that, because he was worried that if he said that, Zuo Zhicheng said you said I can't do it, so let's try it.
If Zuo Zhicheng said this, he would have no way to do anything at all. Because as an expert in other people's appearance, there was no excuse to reject Zuo Zhicheng's challenge.
As a master of human appearance, when he thought that after the three moves of the Wheel-Turning Dharma King died at Zuo Zhicheng, he had no confidence to fight with Zuo Zhicheng.
The only thing he didn't expect was that Zuo Zhicheng would be so direct, regardless of the rules, principles, or his identity and power. He wanted to take advantage of the airs and rely on the power behind him to control Zuo Zhicheng.
But I didn't expect Zuo Zhicheng to talk back to him naked, but Qing Yueying couldn't even give up her words when dealing with such a person who was not following the rules.
This is the name of a man and the shadow of a tree. If Zuo Zhicheng had not been ambushed by the three Dharma kings before, even if he had the record of killing the Red Sun Monk, if he dared to say this here, Qing Yueying would immediately take action and teach this ungrateful young man a lesson.
But now Zuo Zhicheng has three moves to kill the Wheel Dharma King and blind the eyes of the Dharma King, so Qing Yueying dared not fight with him.
Qing Yueying's face turned blue and white, and finally the veins on her forehead pounded a few times. Then she let out a long breath, closed her eyes, and stopped talking. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better and faster!
