In this way, Liu Jun relied on his current quick feet, and in just a few days, he almost covered the entire Red Lotus Sect's sphere of influence.
Although he only had a brief look at it, Liu Jun also had a certain understanding of the situation in the Red Lotus Sect.
Generally speaking, within the sphere of influence of the Red Lotus Sect, ordinary people are charged even more taxes than those collected by the Zheng Dynasty. However, because the land here in Xuzhou yields more food, people can still live.
If it goes down, it will be more stable than Zheng Chao.
When Liu Jun saw the girl coming out to the street, he suddenly found that people on the street acted strangely when they saw him. Liu Jun felt the fear in people's eyes, but there was also gratitude and admiration.
Liu Jun heard a word in people's whispered conversations - the person who cannot be peeped.
He thought about what Wang Yan said about giving himself a title, and Liu Jun suddenly understood.
Avoiding the crowd, Liu Jun soon arrived at the courtyard where Wang Yan lived.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Liu Jun saw Wang Yanzheng sitting at the stone table in the courtyard drinking tea with a comfortable look on his face.
"Is that 'person who cannot be peeped' your idea?" Liu Jun asked directly.
Wang Yan smiled and asked, "How does the title 'The One Who Cannot Peep' sound to you?"
"Not very good?" Liu Jun also sat down at the stone table, "It smells like Cthulhu."
When Wang Yan's wife Yun Niang saw Liu Jun coming over, she smiled and brought out a plate of snacks from the kitchen, and then asked the cook to prepare some cold dishes. She looked very natural, and she was obviously used to living a wealthy life.
Liu Jun was a little curious about their past, but if they didn't take the initiative to tell them, Liu Jun wouldn't ask.
Although Wang Yan didn't quite understand 'Cthulhu', he also saw that Liu Jun was not particularly satisfied. Through his own testing during this period, he had long discovered that Liu Jun was not a person who cared about etiquette. This would be better
, he felt more at ease, and he was never polite when speaking to Liu Jun.
Wang Yan looked at Liu Jun not to look at his superior, but to look at a strange person: "Maybe you didn't realize it, but this title best reflects your characteristics. In an environment like the Red Lotus Sect,
'The One Who Cannot Be Peeped' also has other metaphors in people's minds, such as gods, demons, or other characters in people's legends."
Liu Jun understood somewhat: "Are you trying to win over some followers of the Red Lotus Sect to establish a separate sect?"
He looked around with some vigilance. Faith is a very sensitive matter. No matter who touches other people's cakes, they will incur the most severe retaliation.
Wang Yan was delighted with Liu Jun's sensitivity: "There are very few people in the upper echelons of the Red Lotus Sect who truly believe in the teachings of the Red Lotus Sect. This time, I just want to test it out and see how tolerant the Red Lotus Sect is to you.
Gao, if in the end, they don't realize the danger of our behavior and just seek an exchange of benefits from you, then we might be able to use the shell of the Red Lotus Sect to develop another sect."
Liu Jun said with some embarrassment: "But wouldn't this be a bit shameless? After all, the Red Lotus Sect has helped me a lot."
Wang Yan asked back: "Do you care about this?"
Liu Jun looked solemn: "Of course I care. Since I came to this world, I have done everything with a clear conscience. This is the reason why I act unscrupulously. Because I have a clear conscience, I can do everything with confidence.
I think what I did was right."
He looked into Wang Yan's eyes, thought for a while and said: "If you believe that I can create a world where people can live a better life, in the process, we should not act out of line. All use violent means to get something.
A beautiful future will eventually suffer backlash."
Wang Yan was shocked by Liu Jun's words. It took him a long time before he sighed quietly: "If you act like this, I'm afraid you will suffer in the future."
Liu Jun smiled and said, "Don't people have to suffer all kinds of hardships when they live in this world? Besides, how noble do you really think I am when I do these things?"
Liu Jun shook his head and said: "I couldn't bear to see those people working hard all their lives, just to ensure that they would not starve to death, but also to be oppressed and exploited by others. I once thought about whether I was really
A good old man? But I found that I just wanted to satisfy my sense of justice and find a meaning for my life."
He looked at Wang Yan, who was deep in thought, with a smile on his face: "Is there anything you want to achieve in your life? Is it possible to achieve it together as you support me?"
Liu Jun's frankness made Wang Yan a little incredible, and Liu Jun's words also made Wang Yan start to explore his own heart.
Originally, from the moment Liu Jun saved him, Wang Yan was prepared to devote his life to Liu Jun. But when Liu Jun said this, Wang Yan also began to think about what he was living for.
Seeing Wang Yan immersed in his own thoughts, Liu Jun picked up the snack plate on the table and walked towards Elder Liao's yard. He heard from his disciple that Elder Liao had something to do with him.
As soon as he arrived at Elder Liao's yard, Liu Jun heard a voice. It was the leader of the gang from last time.
After passing through several small doors and arriving at the martial arts training ground, Liu Jun saw the gang leader lying on the ground with his upper body naked and bruises on his back. It was obvious that he had been beaten just now.
Liu Jun looked at Elder Liao, who was standing at the edge of the martial arts training ground with a gloomy face, and said with a smile: "Elder, what's going on? I thought this guy had been killed by you a long time ago."
Elder Liao's face was a little stiff: "After last time, I found out that this person turned out to be my grand nephew, but I couldn't kill him. I asked him to stop his previous dirty deeds and find a good businessman in the future.
I was born, but I found out that this guy was fooling me on the surface, but behind the scenes, he was still doing it to make money."
"Uncle, I am wronged. So many people died that day. How dare I continue to do it? I have already ordered my men to cut off the small ones, but I can't stand the fact that some people below have shallow eye sockets. I am just an ordinary person.
If they really work together to hide it from me, I won't be able to find out."
However, his defense brought even greater anger from Elder Liao: "Go ahead and beat me. You are a gang leader. If you don't personally pay attention to such a matter of life and death, you deserve this beating."
Watching the two guards using thorn sticks to draw out more bruises on the man's back, although the man endured the pain and did not scream, the twisted expression really affected Liu Jun's mood.
He waved his hands to the two guards: "Forget it, elder, don't be angry, it's not worth it. Who hasn't made a mistake before? I came here this time because I heard that you have something to do with me?"
The guard looked at Elder Liao.
Elder Liao smiled awkwardly and motioned for them to leave: "Since I found out about this kid, I asked someone to check it out. There are no powerful figures in the Liao family in the Red Lotus Sect. The only few are just minors.
Boss, the others are all hanging out in the market. I know you are a man of means, so I just wonder if you can lead them on the right path."
Elder Liao's meaning is very obvious. He is saying that his family has been excluded from the center of power by the Red Lotus Sect. If Liu Jun takes over this job, the entire family will fully support him.
Liu Jun naturally understood what he meant and was a little overjoyed: "To be honest, I am worried about how to find some people who are familiar with the local situation."
Liao Weiren crawled over and looked at him eagerly.
Liu Jun touched his chin. This man could be the leader of a gang. Not to mention what he did that was unscrupulous, he must have some skills.
"You are one of them. Now I have entrusted Wang Yan to manage these matters. You can follow his orders from now on."
Liao Weiren was happy in his heart and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The most important hurdle was finally passed. As long as Liu Jun could really let go of his prejudice against him, he would naturally have his own day in the future. However, he thought that in just a few days, he would have to go to the place where he originally helped.
The master who had been manipulated by him to be obedient was obeying orders and scratching his head a little.
After Liao Weiren left, Liu Jun followed Elder Liao into the living room, where the guests and hosts took their seats.
Seeing Liu Jun taking out a snack from his pocket and stuffing it into his mouth from time to time, Elder Liao felt angry. This guy went out for several days and disappeared without even a message, so he said lightly: "I don't know if you heard about it."
No, recently there are rumors on the streets about a 'person who cannot be peeped', and it sounds like he is talking about you."
