The leader of the Wanjian Sect pointed at the tall man with a beard standing in the hall and made an introduction.
"Hong Jian, my eldest disciple, has acceptable martial arts skills. He is now mainly responsible for the secular affairs of our sect. He often travels between Qinghai and Xinjiang. He is very familiar with the situation in these two places and I believe he can help the alliance leader.
"
Hong Jian cupped his fists and made a bow, but when he opened his mouth, people were startled. He said in a sharp voice: "Leader Linghu, fellow juniors, I, because I want to help the sect earn more income,
So I often go to two places to deliver goods..."
"Ahem, don't tell me what is there and what is not. Let's introduce the situation in Qinghai to the alliance leader." The leader of the Wanjian Sect interrupted him with a dark face and blamed himself for his shortcomings.
"Uh, yes, master, I just mentioned it casually." Hong Jian twisted and looked very embarrassed.
Ouch, it's so irritating! Li Jiang looked at a nine-foot tall man with a beard holding an orchid finger to act like a little girl, and almost couldn't help but want to go up and beat him to death.
The baby sound continues.
After enduring a period of hearing torture, the five people from Huashan understood that he did not know that there was a Wusheng sect outside the Great Wall, but he was familiar with the topography and population of Qinghai and was considered a qualified guide.
Linghu Chong thought about it. If the local snakes in Lanzhou, which is closest to Qinghai, don't know about the Wusheng sect, it means that the Wusheng sect is well hidden. In this case, most other people in Lanzhou won't know about it, so it won't bother them.
Lord, just him.
So, he decided on Hong Jian.
The leader of the Wan Jian sect enthusiastically asked for food again, but Linghu Chong declined politely. The leader of the Wan Jian sect looked regretful and called Hong Jian to explain a few words before sending everyone out.
On the way back to the inn, Hong Jian, a local snake, pointed at the buildings on both sides of the street and started introducing them.
Although everyone criticized his baby voice, they also recognized his ability. He was truly worthy of a man who traveled all over the country. He was able to speak vividly and clearly about the history and characteristics of these places.
Passing by the restaurant where the five people drank in Huashan, everyone realized from Hong Jian's explanation that this restaurant was just a second-rate restaurant in Lanzhou City, and the wine in it was not authentic at all, and was all a scam for outsiders.
Huh? The five people looked at each other in confusion. At that time, everyone was still praising it. Linghu Chong even said that this wine was a fairy wine. How could it be fooled by other people's mouths?
Linghu Chong's face felt feverish, and he wondered if his sense of taste had deteriorated a bit since he hadn't touched alcohol for many years.
The leader was anxious and it was his duty to resolve the leader's embarrassment. Li Jiang hurriedly walked to Linghu Chong and whispered: "Master, don't listen to this nonsense of Senior Brother Hong. What does he know about wine? He can be as good as Master for decades."
A drinker?"
Linghu Chong shook his head and said with a smile: "You can't say that. Drinking tastes vary from place to place. It's normal for there to be differences."
"Oh, Master is right, I'm being shallow. However, I think this Senior Brother Hong is weird, why don't we let him go back?" Li Jiang wanted to drive Hong Jian away because he was a bit uncomfortable looking at him.
In addition to this reason, he also has a deeper calculation in his mind. He wants to use his copycat spiritual mind to equip a scanner. If there is an ambush, there is a high chance that he will find it when Qian Jun is about to launch his attack.
If it is revealed by chance, wouldn't it be a great achievement?
Linghu Chong actually felt that Hong Jian was weird, but he put a straight face and said seriously: "Haichuan, since Wanjianmen has arranged for him to be a guide, it means that he is really capable. You must not judge people by their appearance, otherwise
From now on, you will suffer losses in the arena."
"Oh, disciples, please remember your master's teachings." Li Jiang curled his lips helplessly, thinking to himself that you just judge people by their appearance. How about making friends with Tian Boguang?
Linghu Chong nodded and said nothing more. He believed that with the eldest disciple's intelligence, he could figure it out just by waking him up a little.
The six of them returned to the inn. Because it was too late, Linghu Chong ordered them to leave early tomorrow morning.
However, there are no extra rooms in the inn, so two people have to squeeze into one room. How to arrange it has become a problem. We definitely can't let the older generation squeeze in, so we can only carry forward the style of the four small ones.
Hong Jian's watery little eyes glanced at Li Jiang unintentionally.
Li Jiang felt a chill in his heart. He didn't dare to imagine the scene of two grown men squeezing into the same bed. He quickly said before Linghu Chong spoke: "Master, Senior Brother Hong is a guest. I think it's better to let Junior Brother Six and Junior Brother Seven sleep there."
, give the room to Senior Brother Hong."
"Yeah, that's fine." Linghu Chong agreed.
Sun Zhuoyan and Cao Chao looked at Li Jiang speechlessly.
As the general manager of logistics, Feng Fei immediately arranged the room change and ordered dinner.
After dinner, everyone went to bed.
The next morning, everyone got up early, had breakfast, and left Lanzhou under the leadership of Hong Jian.
Although Hong Jianniang was very effeminate, he was really a good guide. He traveled across the state and the capital without asking for directions, and brought everyone safely to Haidong in half the time expected by the Huashan faction.
Haidong is outside the customs, and the Central Plains Wulin Sect is beyond reach. The Huashan Sect has lost its source of information. Therefore, it can only send people to investigate on its own.
Linghu Chong divided the twenty-two people except himself and four disciples into eleven groups. Two people from each group were sent out and began to collect news about the Wu Sheng Sect.
However, most of the people here are Hui people and they don’t speak the same language. Li Jiang is not optimistic about this channel.
Linghu Chong left behind four disciples and his guide Hong Jian to go to the location of the crime and visit the village where Xiajiang Yushi was attacked. Hong Jian had been there before and he knew the way.
This village was finally found on the way to Xining after half a day of driving.
What appeared before everyone's eyes was a piece of scorched earth and ruined walls. The traces of the battle that day must have been wiped away.
Linghu Chong looked solemn, jumped up from his horse, and passed by after a few ups and downs.
The remaining five people didn't have the same skill as him, so they dismounted honestly and followed up on their legs.
After entering, Li Jiang found that this small village was not small. In addition to a vaguely visible tall gate, there were dozens of families inside.
However, these dozens of families have all become victims, their houses burned into ruins, and black human bones scattered everywhere.
There was no one in the village, it was dead silent and cold, with only the whistling wind blowing by, bringing with it bursts of dust and a burnt smell.
Looking at all this, Li Jiang's face turned gloomy.
The Wusheng sect is so ruthless. In order to eliminate evidence, they even destroyed a village. How many innocent people are there!
Li Jiang has never been so angry. He has always had a game mentality, treating the attached interface as a level, and passing one level is the next. But at this moment, he is thinking of living people, and what he thinks of is their screams under the butcher's knife.
and cries of despair.
He clenched his fists and secretly determined that the Wusheng sect must be judged by the Iron Fist of Justice!
Because the houses in the village collapsed, many roads were blocked, and several people walked around like they were in a maze, gradually approaching the landlord's compound.
When he was approaching the compound, Li Jiang's heart suddenly moved, but he did not look back and continued moving forward as if nothing had happened.
