This is the most prosperous place in Nanzheng. The shops in the street are full of gold and jade utensils and rare treasures and elixirs, attracting people from all over Hanzhong. It is far more prosperous and lively than the small shops in the south of Mian County.
It was founded by the brothers Yang Song and Yang Bai together with the big merchants in Hanzhong. It is bustling with people all year round and making money every day.
Today, Ma Chao's Buqu is also in the Qingyu Tower on this street.
"Lu Jing!"
A loud banging sound of a wine cup exploding was heard from the upper room on the third floor. Ma Dai was furious and filled with murderous intent.
Gongshu Yu, who was opposite, had a sad face: "This man is arrogant, but what he said is indeed reasonable. In terms of closeness, he is the confidant of Master, and he has the saint girl as his shield. In terms of importance, he is the youngest refiner in the fourth generation. His foundation is
He is innocent and has a bright future! Our disciple is unknown, so we can't even try to trouble him... When the general goes on an expedition, you and I will live under someone else's side. Young Master, you'd better swallow your breath."
"Swallow this breath?"
Ma Dai slapped the table and said angrily: "A whole month of military supplies! There are also [Yuan Rong Nu] and [Ginseng]! You want me to pretend that nothing happened? Why can this traitor break through so easily? Isn't it because of eating?
He took ginseng! He spent my money, took my medicine, and still wants me to swallow this breath. How can there be such a reason in the world!"
"well."
Gongshu Yu sighed, with a look of helplessness on his face: "But the saint is also involved in this matter, so this is simply..."
Gongshu Yu shook his head repeatedly.
Ma Dai made a move. Indeed, in this matter, Zhang Qiying and Lu Jing advanced and retreated together. They were inseparable. To move Lu Jing was to move Zhang Qiying. Once it was made clear, Zhang Lu would not only not pursue the case, but also might because he had attacked Zhang Qiying before.
And venting your anger on him would be even worse!
Reason told him to put the page away, but when he thought of Lu Jing's humiliation as if no one was around, the anger in his heart began to rise!
Liangzhou was lost, the eldest brother’s wife and children were also lost, and the Ma family was completely defeated!
Not only was he now reduced to being dependent on others, but he was also humiliated by a former petty thief, but he couldn't do anything to him... Anger burned in his heart, causing his stomach to ache, his liver to ache, and his whole body to ache!
"Moreover..."
Gongshu Yu glanced at Ma Dai and wanted to persuade: "We and Baishi are both under surveillance, and we can't take action against Lu Jing..."
Ma Dai glanced out the window, and could vaguely feel a few eyes sweeping over him, and the anger in his heart became even stronger!
"I'm going for a walk."
With a gloomy look on his face, he stood up and walked out, but as soon as he reached the door, a disciple stopped him before he could take a step forward.
The disciple was wearing a reddish-brown Taoist robe and an iron crown. There was no word "Zhengyi" on his chest. Instead, there was a soaring fire crow. His sleeves were gathered up and wrapped with wristbands. He was a bit more capable than ordinary disciples.
Killing, the realm is also higher, the eighth level of Qi creation is stronger than ordinary ghost soldiers!
Ma Dai knows about them, Zhang Wei's elite soldiers, soldiers and crows!
"General Ma."
The disciple clasped his fists and saluted: "The Governor has an order. Since General Ma Chao has pledged his troops, it would be better for you and your family to stay in the Qingyu Tower and be supervised. You can give orders for everything you need, but... you are not allowed to go out!
"
His attitude is very firm.
Ma Dai immediately became angry and said in a deep voice: "Who gave this order! Master, you treat us with courtesy, but you actually dare to detain us by force!"
Gongshuyu was also angry, pounded the table and ran out: "I was able to go out yesterday, but I wonder who dares to bully us like this!"
"It's me."
A voice sounded.
Ma Dai and Gong Shuyu's expressions immediately froze, and they looked outside together.
The disciple respectfully stepped aside.
Lu Jing came up with a group of ten elite soldiers and crows. At this moment, he also changed into a soldier crow robe, but it was not reddish brown but reddish black. The orange fire crow on his chest also turned into a reddish-brown one.
The blood-red three-legged golden crow changed, and the iron crown turned into a jade crown, making the whole person look more fierce and cold.
"It's you..."
Gongshu Yu's face was full of shock, and he looked up and down: "How did you..." Before he could finish his words, he saw the token on Lu Jing's waist, and his face suddenly looked as ugly as his dead parents.
Lu Jing is the new "Capital Supervisor" of Bingya Road!
Ma Dai also saw the Fire Crow Token and didn't know what had happened. All kinds of emotions such as humiliation, anger, and hatred surged into his heart.
When Lu Jing treats an opponent he can afford, he will definitely use all means to punish him to death! If he can't defeat him, he should wait first, and then he will punish him to death after defeating him!
The phrase "Lords have a lot" does not appear in his dictionary at all.
"From today on, I will take over the Soldier Crow Road."
Lu Jing said calmly: "On February 15th, Dao Ancestor's Christmas is approaching, and Soldier Crow Dao is short of manpower, so I don't have time to accompany you all around! I have two workers, and the members of the White Fang Assassin Group, staying here 'keeping to themselves'.
To facilitate supervision... and to avoid causing unnecessary misunderstandings and causing trouble to Master Shijun and General Ma... What do you two think?"
"..."
Short of manpower, no time to hang out with... Keep to yourself... Misunderstanding...
Gong Shuyu's face turned red and he stared at Lu Jing. If his gaze could kill, he would have already beaten Lu Jing to death.
Ma Dai is the same, his back molars are almost broken, he is so righteous and righteous! He will not forget to give himself a good reason even if he finds fault for them!
Lu Jing!
Lu Jing!!!
Bang!
Ma Dai simply turned his back and closed the door.
Lu Jing sneered, didn't take it seriously, and said to the previous disciple of Soldier Crow Dao: "Look, I'll give you whatever you want, but you can't leave this building. Once you disappear, you don't have to report it to me, just report it to Master Lian Shen."
You can't beat this situation, you have to find someone who can!"
"yes!"
The disciple responded.
There was a loud ping-pong noise in the room, and Ma Dai and Gongshu Yuqi began to demolish the building.
"Keep an account of the damaged property and wait until General Ma comes back to ask for money. This kind of deliberate behavior cannot be tolerated!"
Lu Jing's tone was calm, and the room immediately fell silent.
The surrounding soldiers and crow disciples were stunned. This new leader is really disgusting: "...Yes."
"Let's go."
Lu Jing turned around and left Qingyu Tower.
There was deathly silence in the room, only the murderous intention continued to rise.
Everyone left the Qingyu Tower and came to the long street. A deputy in his thirties behind Lu Jing said in embarrassment: "Sir, is this a bit too much? Master Shijun is trying to win over Ma Chao. If Ma Chao knows about this...
…”
His name is Xingdu, his courtesy name is Yuanli, and he is the son of Xing Mu, the chief steward of the Zhang family. Zhang Lu is Zhang Wei's closest confidant. There is no need to worry about betrayal. He is now at the realm of God Refining, and his strength is quite impressive.
"Lord Xing..."
"My lord, please don't do this. You are now the Superintendent of Soldier Crow Road. You can call me Yuan Ji."
"Okay, Yuan Li. Do you think I'm making trouble unreasonably?"
Isn't it?
Xing Du thought this in his heart but didn't dare to say so. His father specially told him that Lu Jing was a very human being and he could do whatever he asked him to do. He should never make his own decisions, let alone go against him.
Xingdu listened to his father's words very much and just gave him a tactful suggestion. If he didn't listen, it would be fine.
"hehe."
Seeing him racking his brains for an answer, Lu Jing shook his head and laughed, saying: "Aren't my reasons good enough? Isn't there a shortage of people? The Dajiang Gang on the Han River robs property and needs to be eradicated. The Qingduo Mountain Ginseng Picking Gang is becoming increasingly rampant.
, occupying mountains to obtain medicine, also need to deal with it, and preparing for Daozu's Christmas requires more manpower... Where are the extra people to follow them around?"
"Well……"
Xing Du hesitated and said: "But they are Ma Chao's cronies after all. This move is no different from detention. In case..."
Lu Jing sneered and said: "If he can't bear this humiliation, he won't surrender at all. Don't worry, Ma Chao is very shameless, haven't you heard? He can even try to be Han Sui's son, and now he is
At least Shijun’s subordinates don’t have to call him daddy and are treated with courtesy. How big an improvement is this? He can bear it!”
"..."
Xingdu wiped his sweat and was speechless.
It seems that is indeed the case...
After chatting for a while, Lu Jing got back to the topic and said seriously: "Of course, there's more than that... Who are Yuan Li, Ma Dai, and Gongshu Yu?"
Xingdu replied: "Ma Chao obeys his disciples, but losers abandon his disciples."
Lu Jingdao: "You were once a young man from an aristocratic family. He was always aloof and domineering. He was humiliated repeatedly. Can you swallow your anger?"
Xing Du frowned and said, "But they are hostages now and are still under supervision. They have to endure it if they can't tolerate it."
"No."
Lu Jing shook his head and said: "Asking people to keep strict supervision is just to serve as witnesses for them. Ma Dai's second level of refining the gods, and Gongshu's first level of refining the gods. If they really want to contact the outside world, do they still need to go out? Those disciples just give them excuses.
, and then you can...'be bold enough'!"
Lu Jing's face darkened.
Xingdu suddenly realized, this was fishing! But how did Lu Jing know that they knew where the fish was?
Lu Jingdao: "Ma Dai has the White Stone Assassin Group, Qiang and Di masters, who have been in the northwest for many years. They eat both black and white, and have a wide network of contacts. They should not be underestimated. Gongshu Yuneng escaped from Gongshu's family and defected to Ma Chao alone, creating a 'thunderbolt chariot'.
After the great defeat of Hebei City, there must be other forces behind us to support us... Maybe they are better informed than us. Those who are directly involved can't be touched, so what else can we do?"
The punishment is enough to reveal it, and he said decisively: "Kill someone with a borrowed knife!"
"That's right."
Lu Jing said with a smile: "Now just wait for the 'knife' to come out... At this time of year, there are probably a lot of hidden knives in Nanzheng. It would be too hard to find them one by one. Let's let Ma Dai and Gongshu Yu help us lead them out."
Most people can't do this kind of work, so I have to work hard to do it."
Xingdu suddenly realized it and said excitedly: "So, my subordinates understand! I'm going to keep an eye on it! But... what if they endure it, or don't know the other situation?"
Lu Jing said nonchalantly: "Even if they don't know, those who hide their swords will definitely look for them when they see that they are at odds with us... The enemy of our enemy is our friend, and there will always be gains if you keep an eye on them... You keep an eye on the others first.
Investigating secretly and running two parallel lines is better than finding a needle in a haystack."
Xing Du completely understood, clasped his hands in his fists, and said sincerely: "Master Du Jian is very resourceful, and my subordinates admire him!"
"What kind of conspiracy is this? I am just avenging my private revenge..."
Lu Jing shook his head and said, "Go and keep an eye on it. If there is any movement, Feiyan will send a message immediately."
Xing Du smiled and bowed to accept the order: "Yes!"
Punishment takes people away.
Lu Jing's dark eyes flickered, he revived on his own, and spat out the message in a certain direction on the long street.
"Coming so soon?"
Lu Jing frowned and thought for a moment, then slowly walked over following Mo Tong's guidance.
…
In the Qingyu Tower.
Ma Dai and Gongshu Yu were sitting at the table, saying nothing, and the murderous aura on their bodies was getting stronger and stronger.
Gongshu Yu raised his hand to seal the space, blocking the spread of sound, and began to curse: "What a shame! What a shame! What a shame!" Just now he had advised Ma Dai to endure it, but now he couldn't bear it anymore. Lu Jing was treating them as prisoners.
Yesterday, he was treated with courtesy. As soon as Zhang Wei left today, Zhang Lu gave the Soldier Crow Road to Lu Jing, and the treatment was immediately gone.
This gap was too big and he couldn't accept it.
Hearing his roar, Ma Dai calmed down, but the murderous look in his eyes was solid: "Shou Zhuo (Gongshu Yu's cousin), my eldest brother went on an expedition, and we don't know when he will return. You and I can't just sit back and wait to die..."
"
You can't be locked up in this building forever, it's too humiliating!
They are here to surrender, not to suffer. Even if they are indeed "hostages" in name, they should not be treated as hostages!
Gong Shuyu's eyes flashed: "What do you mean, Master?"
Ma Dai slowly raised his hand and lightly scratched his chin.
Gongshu Yu hissed, shook his head and said: "No, once Zhang Lu knows that you and I are in danger, the frontline generals will also be surrounded... Zhang Lu gave Zhang Wei the [Dadu Gong Seal], and the general was seriously injured and has not recovered.
, several people come forward, this..."
"Of course it's not you or me who do it."
Ma Dai said: "I don't know how many forces that are eyeing Hanzhong, such as Nanman Jiuli Village, Jile Cave, Cao Cao's school office, and Tianshi Dao's own enemies... February 15th is an important day for Tianshi Dao. Every year, this day
Something happens every day, and this year is no exception... When Lu Jing became the leader of the Soldier Crow Road, he was seeking his own death! These forces must regard him as a thorn in their flesh... What's more, he also has many enemies...
…”
"oh!"
Gongshuyu suddenly realized.
Ma Dai sneered and said, "Stop acting in front of me. I know who is behind you, and so does my eldest brother."
Gongshuyu smiled awkwardly: "This... that..."
"rest assured."
Ma Dai leisurely said: "The 'Ghost Hall' has a feud with the public losers, but they have no grudge against us. I don't care what your relationship is with them. As long as you don't plot against our Ma family, we don't care."
Gongshu Yu breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Master! To be honest, this is a dispute between the main family and the branch family within the Gongshu family, and has nothing to do with it. The Ghost Works Hall does not belong to any force, it is just a sect composed of fellow practitioners who practice mechanism arts.
I can't help but whom the disciples will seek refuge with.
I will be taken out of the public house by them just because I have been taught in the hall and have good talents. The master of the hall cannot bear my tragic death... Originally there is nothing worth concealing about this matter, but after all, its chief helm is in Ye
City, the deputy hall leader Ma Jun is also the ‘Doctor of Five Classics’ in Tianxia Academy, so I..."
Ma Dai nodded: "I understand. No need to say more, I believe in you, and so does my elder brother, otherwise I wouldn't have let your Pili car go to the battlefield directly. There are disciples of the Ghost Works Hall all over the world, do you have any news?"
"A little bit indeed."
Gongshu Yusong sighed, approached Ma Dai, and whispered: "Master, have you ever heard of the strange 'Silk Puppet' Du Gan?"
Ma Dai was surprised: "You mean?"
Gongshu Yu sneered: "He is in Nanzheng now!"
Ma Dai said: "Has he contacted you?"
Gongshu Yu shook his head: "No, but I smelled the smell of pitch pine in his organization, and the unique 'Long Wenxiang' on his organization! He also studied at the Ghost Works Hall, and later joined the school affairs office and became a Famous school affairs... I know where he is, his disguise can deceive others, but it's a pity that he can't deceive me!"
Ma Dai's eyes lit up: "His skills in mechanisms are extraordinary. If he really wants to take action, Lu Jing will definitely die! But we still need to make more preparations... I also know two people... Lu Jing killed the Saint of Jiuli Village and the Wind Centipede. Also killed Xinye Deng clan Deng Zhi...
Jiuli Village already has a big feud with Tianshi Dao, and the Dengzhi people will not let Lu Jing go... They know that everything is not going well for me when I am living under someone else's care, so they asked me to send a message to me yesterday, asking me to give them some convenience. , was rejected by me... Now, I can help you."
Ma Dai looked murderous.
Gongshu Yu sneered: "There is another interesting thing. There was an old monk accompanying Du Gan yesterday... Master, do you know who he is?"
"who?"
"Master of Stone."
"Master of Stone?"
Ma Dai was surprised: "The disciple of Zhao Sheng of Tianshi Dao, the one who later left the mountain and abandoned Taoism to practice Buddhism in anger after being suppressed by Zhang Heng?"
"That's him."
Gongshu Yu smiled and said: "It's self-evident what his purpose is when he is with Du Gan."
"good!"
Ma Dai was overjoyed: "It doesn't matter if Zhang Lu is injured, so he can rely more on his elder brother... With so many people going against Tianshi Dao, Lu Jing, the Superintendent of Soldier and Crow Dao, is doomed! We can't let him run away. This guy has some tricks up his sleeve, it’s best to reveal his details so that those people can be prepared and everything will be foolproof!"
The two looked at each other.
Ma Dai said: "I am not very proficient in Taoism, so I have to rely on Brother Shouzhuo for communication."
"Easy to say."
Gongshu Yu Leng said coldly: "Thanks to him for letting so many people guard him, let's see how we can be blamed this time!"
