Chapter 513

"Dare to do it?"

Hearing Feng Peng Laohai's words, Li Yan stopped what he was doing, glanced at him lightly, and shook his head, "Old senior, just say what you have to say."

He knew that this old man must have had some thoughts.

It was not strange to have small thoughts.

In this world, everyone has selfishness, even the closest parents, brothers, wives, and children will have other considerations.

Pure feelings are not only rare but also easily become extreme.

Having lived two lives, Li Yan could already view things peacefully.

The matter of the Dragon Worship Sect village made them even more terrified, knowing that going further was no longer something they could participate in.

At a glance...

Li Yan heard the taste, frowned slightly, and shook his head, "Senior, do you want to rely on us to take back the power of the Salt Gang?"

They traveled everywhere, carrying only the eighteen items of a Great Vehicle Bhikkhu, such as willow branches, bath beans, three robes, bottles, bowls, tin staffs, incense burners, water filters, etc.

After Feng Peng Laohai straightened it out, Li Yan also understood the reason.

"To be honest, we won't take this job!"

Saying this, he turned around and shouted, "Children, I want to return to the Salt Gang and take back what you deserve, but you have to risk your heads; do you dare?"

Since then, they would hide in the dark.

Feng Peng Laohai was also a human spirit; hearing Li Yan's unhappiness, he apologized directly and then said, "Although I haven't been in the Salt Gang for a long time, I know some things clearly."

This kind of small teahouse, spread all over Shu, was not uncommon even on the Shu Road, specifically for passing travelers to rest.

They followed Wang Fu because they wanted to hug the thigh of "Daoist Mobile Corps Commander" and mix a meal.

Li Yan was not surprised when he saw this.

If you can't stick to your original heart, you will only end up like the Ghost Opera Troupe.

Thinking of this, Li Yan asked directly.

He never minded others having small thoughts.

Might as well see what kind of name this old man can make...

At the Fu River ferry, the hunters bowed and said goodbye.

"Those who can threaten him have been secretly cleared, and we old people have also been squeezed out..."

The leading monk came outside the inn and put his hands together, "Shopkeeper, can I ask for a cup of hot water?"

And these few hunters were not fools either.

"Secondly, the Shu Prince is powerful, but that's only in Shu; the one in the capital has never been a kind person, and even Qingcheng and Emei are hiding from this matter. What qualifications does the Salt Gang have to participate?"

The manager hurriedly walked out from behind the counter, "What is the master saying? Come in and sit down, drink a cup of hot tea to warm your body."

"When the Salt Gang first surrendered to the Shu Prince's Mansion, I was very opposed to it."

The manager didn't even want to send some vegetarian food.

"This is also their vital point, so they are so impatient. If I am not mistaken, the treasure Li Li Shaoxia got is also related to this matter, which is why they are so regardless of the consequences."

Wang Fu pondered for a while, "Why don't we go to that deserted mountain to practice, so there won't be too many people, and it won't be hard to fight."

Li Yan looked into the distance and pondered:

The only bright color was the red lantern hanging at the door.

Everyone immediately responded loudly.

During the chat, most of it was about the arrangement of the Dharma assembly.

Once you step on the Jianghu road, it's not so easy to leave; sometimes it's involuntary, and sometimes you don't want to quit yourself.

The weather after entering winter became even more abnormal.

But it definitely didn't mean they dared to go against the Shu Prince's Mansion.

Therefore, they said goodbye directly at the ferry, planning to take a boat to leave Shu and go to other places to beg for food.

Thinking of a few things on the road, Li Yan answered very affirmatively.

"The current Chuan-Shu Salt Gang, the gang leader is Zhai Tianbao, who is my senior brother's disciple; he was quite polite before taking office, but after taking office, he inserted his own people on a large scale."

"Not so."

Several monks wore bamboo hats and walked on the official road.

Li Yan thought thoughtfully, "Senior, you made this move; Zhai Tianbao will certainly be unlucky, but the Salt Gang is probably not doing well either."

"Wang Liu Quezi, don't sell the pass, say what you have to say; if you say it well, I'll pay for your wine!"

In the Western Jin Dynasty, Deyang Commandery was established, with Deyang County as the seat.

"But he doesn't dare to use this firearm openly, so going to crowded places is safer."

These were wandering monks in Fomen, and they were ascetic monks.

Anyway, they had already fallen out with the Shu Prince's Mansion.

On both sides of the official road leading to Suining City, there were dense ancient trees or bamboo forests, and the freezing rain knocked down withered leaves, sticking to the ground stickily.

Feng Peng Laohai said in a deep voice, "For one thing, the Chuan-Shu Salt Gang began to appear since the Qin and Han Dynasties; everyone is neither black nor white, just to ensure that whether it is a prosperous or chaotic world, the brothers under their command can have a meal."

Suining old city has a long history.

But if you want to be a wolf and eat meat, you have to snatch it from the mouths of other fierce beasts; you have today but no tomorrow, and you live in fear all your life.

"Let's go, this time we will enter the city with great fanfare!"

Most of them worship Guanyin Bodhisattva.

"Hahaha..."

Suining worships Fomen; if you go to some places, the manager will only impatiently drive the monks away.

"Good!"

"Everyone, we'll meet again!"

"It's the Immortal Medicine!"

"The Shu Prince's Mansion has set up several firelock teams, all new-style firearms; if there are Mystic Sect experts laying out, once surrounded in the wild, we have no advantage at all."

The Shu Prince's Mansion is wealthy and has many treasures.

"Li Li Shaoxia misunderstood."

"Senior, what do you want to do?"

"Damn it, what are you afraid of!"

It is true that before, when opposing the Salt Gang, I didn't feel anything, but ever since I took the "Wish-Fulfilling Yang Baozhu," the Shu Prince's Mansion began to make a big fuss.

They lined up in a row, and the leader held a tin staff, holding a bowl in his hand, walking with his head down silently.

Not long after, the monks arrived outside a teahouse.

"The one pushing this matter is Zhai Tianbao and the First Prince!"

"When the time comes, without the support of the Shu Prince, other princes will inevitably fall into the well; my old partners will take the opportunity to clean up the Salt Gang and break away from the Shu Prince's Mansion."

The teahouse was not small, built by clearing a bamboo forest space by the road, brick and wood structure, deep color, and leaking wind everywhere after opening the windows.

A few days ago, there was still salt-like snow, and today it suddenly rained freezing rain again; the sky was overcast, and the bamboo forest seemed to have become gloomy.

Li Yan doesn't believe in this Immortal Medicine thing, but it does exist in various Mystic Sect records, and it is related to the Queen Mother of the West and the Ten Shamans.

"Back to the clan leader, dare!"

Li Yan nodded slightly, "I also noticed something wrong."

"Yes."

"Thank you."

Just like this Feng Peng Laohai in front of him, he talks when he talks, and even uses a radical method, which is really meaningless.

Being so concerned about the "Wish-Fulfilling Yang Baozhu" must have another reason.

Feng Peng Laohai said in a deep voice, "Zhai Tianbao surrendered to the First Prince and took control of power in a short time, which must be because of this matter." Feng Peng Laohai shook his head, "This Shu Prince followed the Emperor through palace chaos and crawled out of piles of dead people on the battlefield several times; how could he not know?"

In the third year of Yonghe of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, after Huan Wen pacified Shu, Deyang Commandery was abolished, and Suining Commandery was established in the southeast of Deyang County, taking the meaning of "restoring chaos and peace."

"Don't do anything."

"After parting this time, I will lead the clan to hide in the dark and contact those old partners and those who are dissatisfied with Zhai Tianbao."

A trace of ferocity appeared in Feng Peng Laohai's eyes, "Since the salt and iron tax, our Salt Gang has never been cut off; having eaten this meal, what are we afraid of the imperial court? The Jianghu is the destination of the Salt Gang!"

High monk...

"Yes, I don't want to live this life for a day!"

He didn't believe in this thing, so he told Feng Peng Laohai truthfully.

Watching these hunters' small boats gradually move away, Sha Lifei shook his head slightly, "Little Brother Yan, what should we do next?"

"Li Li Shaoxia, please forgive me."

Inside the teahouse, many people were gathered.

"To tell the truth, before I was squeezed out, I followed Zhai Tianbao to the Shu Prince's Mansion several times and knew what the situation was inside."

Li Yan and the others knew it well but were too lazy to say it.

"Simple, draw the firewood from under the cauldron!"

Seeing pedestrians passing by, they waited by the road to salute.

This point is very important.

Their grievances with the Shu Prince's Mansion, when it comes to it, have too many coincidences.

"That's right!"

This is someone else's choice, and Li Yan is too lazy to say more, saying in a deep voice, "Then senior, what do you want me to do?"

At the beginning, the feud with the Shu Prince's Mansion was also because of this.

"It's not just famous; it turns out there are really Twelve Boss Yuan Chen, and they are exactly the ones who were given a bounty by the Shu Prince's Mansion before; I heard they have already arrived in Suining."

"No."

Li Yan raised his eyebrows, "Senior's meaning is, the trouble finding us was done by others, and the Shu Prince doesn't know?"

"On the official side, there is no lack of handling, but if you really go to be someone's dog, you can only wait to be killed after the work is done."

Feng Peng Laohai smiled hoarsely, "Since the salt and iron tax, our Salt Gang has never been cut off; having eaten this meal, what are we afraid of the imperial court? The Jianghu is the destination of the Salt Gang!"

Whether you agree or not, those people will do it.

"Suining" name started from this.

The monks were also very polite, specifically looking for the most remote and deserted corner, not affecting the manager's business, and only wanted hot water, eating hard dry food.

"The experts gathered by the Prince's Mansion are not fools; seeing many people die, they will naturally refuse, and then Zhai Tianbao can only use this batch of people."

The speaker was waiting for this sentence, and immediately raised his eyebrows, "There is a big excitement to watch in the city today."

The cold wind blew, and it froze into a piece again.

"Several evil people from the Dragon Worship Sect ran away, plus the Shu Prince's Mansion, there must be many people looking for trouble with us; we can't hide, so we might as well take this time to deal with them first."

"The current Shu Prince doesn't know what magic he has fallen into, only interested in cultivation and longevity; the interior of the Prince's Mansion has long been chaotic."

Feng Peng Laohai sighed, "Actually, many old people in the gang agreed with me, but we still underestimated the despicableness of those people."

At first, the feud started because of the two little girls "Morning Clouds and Evening Rain," followed by the siege of the Earth Immortal, being robbed of the "Wish-Fulfilling Yang Baozhu," and then it got out of control.

"Good!" Li Yan agreed without hesitation.

"Goodbye!"

They are a team of wandering immortals, who can fight for their own interests and eliminate demons and defend the Dao, but they will not be hired by others to fight for power and profit.

"Zhai Tianbao was able to stabilize the situation of the Salt Gang because he used heavy money to gather a group of Jianghu experts, clearing out dissidents everywhere, making everyone feel insecure."

Because of the Guangde Temple Dharma assembly, people from all walks of life gathered, and business was much better than usual.

Stepping back into this bloody Jianghu.

These ascetic monks are well respected, but they will not accept money, so passersby often send some food like steamed buns and water.

Li Yan nodded, "Senior's words are correct."

Feng Peng Laohai is worthy of being a former elder of the Salt Gang; after making up his mind, he acted immediately, directly sending people back to Bai Xi Village, taking the women, children, and old people to disperse and hide.

The monks had been walking for a long time; although they were physically strong, it was inevitable that they were frozen until their faces were blue.

Li Yan shook his head, "If it were before, doing this would naturally be best, but now it's different."

Feng Peng Laohai shook his head, "It concerns the future; whether it is the First Prince or Zhai Tianbao, they will not give up easily, and the attack will inevitably come wave after wave."

Because there is Guangde Temple, the leader of Fomen in the Southwest, the worship of Fomen in Suining is strong, and wealthy gentry often fund the construction of temples in the countryside.

Seeing this, the manager became even more respectful.

"He must know, but he doesn't care; it must be that a prince pushed this matter and promised some heavy promises, making the Shu Prince move his heart..."

Used to being a wolf, how can they endure the life of a sheep.

"Qingcheng Mountain cannot go for the time being; that side is still in chaos due to the struggle for the position of sect leader. Rushing up the mountain will likely make you a target. Wait until the position of sect leader is settled..."

Feng Peng Laohai listened, his expression calm, and shook his head, "These things, I will worry about myself, and I will also contact other old partners."

"After the winter solstice, entering the twelfth lunar month, there is a Huangquan organization gathering in Fengdu; there is not much time left, so we can't go too far."

"The Shu Prince must have given them a deadline; he can tacitly approve some things, but the First Prince cannot afford the price of failure."

People passing by see it and will often stop.

"Hahaha, joke!"

The reason why he got the name "Ghost Sees Sorrow" is just because there are too many people in this world who like to climb up the nose.

"Guangde Temple has been holding Dharma assemblies for several days; we just happen to go and watch the excitement, and by the way, inform them about the Dragon Worship Sect. No matter how much they don't want to cause trouble, they are the head of the Buddhist sect in Shu; they can't sit idly by..."

Crack! Crack! Stepping on it, it made a crisp sound.

"Have you heard of Daoist Mobile Corps Commander?"

"If you kill these people, as for the rest, you just watch the show!"

"The grievances between Li Li Shaoxia and the Shu Prince's Mansion must have been instigated by someone, fueling the flames, to reach the current situation."

"Seems quite famous recently."

Especially in this cold weather, drinking a cup of hot tea is very comfortable.

And the ascetic monks will also stop to chant and pray.

"Whoever can get a word of praise from the Shu Prince will immediately become popular, fighting for it among themselves, and there is no brotherhood long ago."

"Inside the Prince's Mansion, the subordinates of each prince have gathered power, searching everywhere for rare treasures and immortal secret manuals to please the Shu Prince."

Don't look at them accepting imperial court tasks, but most of them have the same goal, either calming disasters or eliminating evil ways.

"Amitabha."

Suddenly, someone drank two sips of wine and said mysteriously, "Everyone, Dharma assemblies are held every year, but there is another big event in Suining this year!"

"What I want to cooperate with is another matter."

One of the men was happy, "I heard that several Jianghu seniors have fallen; is it possible that someone is still thinking about this bounty?"

"Thinking about it is not the case."

Wang Liu Quezi drank wine leisurely, "I just heard that the disciples of those victims have united, invited the Shu-Zhong Shenquan Society, and are rushing to Suining to stand up for them."

"This dragon crossing the river is not easy to be..."
