Luhe, Anzhou Prefecture, and in the government office.

The prefect is talking to the commander of the state, who is in charge of the troops.

"This Chen Feng injured the prefect Anlin and disappeared for several months. Now he has reappeared. He will be arrested this time."

The prefect's tone was serious.

The story of a single shot of the Ershan Mountain also alarmed officials from all over the Luhe River.

He was wanted here for several months, but now he finally learned about him and immediately responded.

Upon hearing this, the commander frowned and said, "But once Chen Feng appeared, he disappeared without a trace again. I don't know where he went and it's hard to catch him."

The prefect said in a deep voice: "When Hongyun Mountain is helped by Chen Feng, it is an accomplice. Now it is expanding heavily. It must be suppressed to ensure the majesty of the court."

"This... Hongyun Mountain annexed Hutou Mountain and Huangdang Mountain, there are 20,000 to 30,000 people at present. The bandits are powerful, and the troops in our state may not be able to take them." The governor hesitated.

"There are such great bandits in Luhe territory, and all states will send troops to fight the bandits. If we can send 6,000 people in Anzhou, we will be in charge of the command for the time being. We will join forces with the troops of other states to defeat the bandits in one fell swoop."

The prefect was solemn.

After hearing this, the commander bowed and said seriously: "I will not let the magistrate be disappointed!"

...

Luhe, the boundary of Anzhou.

There is no cloud, the red sun is scorching, and the world is like a steamer.

Zhou Jing and his group of ten people were walking on the road, each wearing straw hats.

Except for Zhang San and five others who were personally and captured Lin Song, the other four were all powerful people of Kong Wu, which was difficult to mess with. They all retreated when they met on the road.

"Brother, Wenshui County is ahead."

Hong Ding pointed ahead first.

Looking at Zhou Jing, the outline of the county town vaguely appeared in the distance.

Wenshui County is located in the corner of Luhe River, not far from Jiangchun.

After leaving Hongyun Mountain, everyone stopped and crossed many prefectures and counties, and then came here.

Zhou Jing turned around, looked at everyone, and said, "This place is the hometown of Brother Hong. Brother Hong is the most familiar with him. The eldest brother is very serious and takes Brother Hong into the city to explore the situation."

"Where are you, the second brother?" Guo Haishen was curious.

Zhou Jing touched his chin: "I am wanted everywhere in Luhe. I am eye-catching and easily recognized by the officers and soldiers. It's better to wait outside... Although Brother Hong is a person from here, he may be able to sneak in after leaving for many years."

Hong Ding touched his bare head first: "When I left my hometown due to crime, I still had hair. Later, I shaved my head to cover up Xingzang. The county officers and soldiers probably couldn't recognize me."

"That would be great." Zhou Jing smiled and then instructed: "You go to the city to check the site, and check whether the magistrate and county magistrate here are still enemies of Brother Hong's back then. By the way, visit the people and ask what other bullies in this county who bully the city."

"Does the second brother want to use them to perform surgery?" Fang Zhen was very interested.

"Anyway, I've come here, so I'll just get rid of it."

Zhou Jing nodded.

A small county town has not enough people, so he comes and goes freely.

Moreover, the low walls of the county town were useless to him. He could sneak in quietly at night without having to pass through the city gate, so he did not plan to enter the city during the day.

After the discussion, the few people divided the troops into two groups. Guo Haishen and Hong Dingxian entered the city, while Zhou Jing and Fang Zhen led the rest to find a tavern next to the outside of the city to rest.

There were no other guests in the restaurant. Zhou Jing, Fang Zhen and others sat down, and they sat down for two tables, ordered food and wine, and ate them at will.

Although Lin Song was a prisoner, except that his hands were tied up with hemp ropes, he suffered no humiliation on the road. He looked pretty good at this time.

"Hero, do you really want to take me back to Wushan Sect?"

He looked at Zhou Jing and spoke hesitantly.

Zhou Jing held the wine bowl and glanced at him: "Do you think I'm trying to cheat you? He said he wanted to take you to the door for money, so he naturally kept his word."

Lin Song's expression is subtle.

When Zhou Jing was taken away from Hutou Mountain, he was quite panicked and didn't know what Zhou Jing took him to do.

Later, when he heard Zhou Jing’s plan on the road, he was stunned.

This strong man actually wanted to tie him up to Jiangchun, return to the Wushan Sect, and come to ask for ransom.

Lin Song had never seen such a rampant kidnapper who took the hostages to someone else's house to negotiate terms.

If it were ordinary families, it would be fine, but their Wushan Sect is a big sect in the world, so it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a dragon's pond and a tiger's den.

Although he knew that Zhou Jing was very skilled in martial arts, his behavior was too arrogant and he didn't take them seriously. He asked them many times along the way, but he still couldn't believe that this was something that a normal person could do.

Lin Song was really curious about Zhou Jing’s purpose. Perhaps he felt that Zhou Jing was easy to talk on the road, so he couldn’t help asking:

"Hero, I don't understand. Why do you need to put yourself in danger if you just want money?"

Zhou Jing smacked his lips and said casually: "It's okay to tell you. I want to challenge the masters in the world and win the world's number one reputation. Your head is famous. I want to fight with him. It's that simple... As for the many disciples of your Wushan Sect, hey, it's just a native chicken and a tile dog."

Lin Song couldn't help but get angry: "You are so arrogant, be careful of capsizing in the gutter."

"You guy is also interesting. You call your master a gutter and you also think about us kidnappers."

Fang Zhen was amazed.

Lin Song heard this and his expression was a little gloomy and said depressedly: "I have something to ask for, you can take me back, can you not publicly tell me about my affair with the daughter of the head?"

"Oh? Didn't this tell you yourself?"

Everyone raised their eyebrows and was quite interested.

Lin Song said helplessly: "I originally wanted to write a book and hand it over to the head of the sect. Only one person would know that, but you took me back with great fanfare. If you promote this matter, it would damage the reputation of the head of the sect's daughter and would be ridiculed by fellow practitioners."

"Strange, what are you going to be afraid of? Since you have an affair, then the media will marry you in the future. Could it be that your leader will not look down on you?" Fang Zhen asked curiously, knocking peanuts.

Lin Song twitched his lips and hesitated: "Actually, the daughter of the head is a marriage contract. Her husband's family is a big family in Ningtian Mansion. She doesn't want to marry her. I wanted to find an opportunity to take her to elope... If only the head of the sect knows about the private affairs and there is room for maneuver, but if it gets a big deal, it will become a laughing stock, and I will definitely not be able to take it."

"Wow, it turns out that it is an adulterer and tycoon!" Fang Zhen despised.

Zhang San scratched his head: "I think it's a love affair between two people, a bit like a storyteller...what is that, a talented man and a beautiful woman?"

"I don't know that Jia Bu Jiaren is definitely not a talented man, at most he is a little white-faced with no ink in his belly."

Zhou Jingle talks casually.

Lin Song's face twitched and he dared not refute.

At this time, Zhang San said curiously: "When you go to Jiangchun on this trip, I wonder if you can see the rumored Yufeng Zhenren... Young man, you kept talking about Yufeng Zhenren on the way. Is that person's ability true or false?"

Lin Song came to his spirit and nodded, "Of course it's true! Who doesn't know that the whole of Jiang Chun is that the true man Yufeng can summon the wind and rain, and can refine the alchemy. The true Lord of the Thunder Tribe Shenxiao Dharma Protector came to earth to search for the secrets of heaven and cleanse the evil spirits!"

He pulled the tiger's skin and held the banner on the way, constantly saying that the Wushan Sect and Ling Fengzi had old age and wanted to intimidate these kidnappers, but it was not very easy to use.

Guo Haishen and other heroes in the green forest believed in the weapons in their hands and were skeptical about Ling Fengzi's deeds.

Zhou Jing is even more unlikely to be afraid of himself.

"It's just spreading rumors. How can there be such a method in this world?"

Fang Zhen sneered, he had never believed these rumors.

After all, this matter sounds outrageous, and if you think about it carefully, it is indeed outrageous.

Zhou Jing glanced at him and said, "That may not be the case. The ancient saying of the world is that the famous scholar is no less than the sage. Since this Yufeng Zhenren has such a great reputation, he must be capable."

Fang Zhen was surprised: "Second brother, can you really believe this lie that Lei Jun came to earth?"

Zhou Jing asked back: "If you haven't seen my martial arts before, do you think my rumors are nonsense?"

Fang Zhen was speechless and muttered: "Second brother, you are different. You are very skilled in martial arts. There are always traces to follow, but this so-called immortal technique that is so silly is mostly a pretentious and mysterious..."

At this time, Lin Song's eyes rolled and he said, "Hero, if you want to compete for the best in the world, why don't you go to visit this Yufeng Zhenren? If you can defeat such a master of enlightenment, who else is your opponent in this world?"

Zhou Jing smiled:

"Do you think you are very smart? You are so smart like you, you should go to the palace to serve the emperor. I will castrate you now. Your head may also like to hear and be willing to give you more rewards."

"Don't... I'll keep it useful."

Lin Song was sweating all over his head, so he quickly stopped and lowered his head to make rice.

...

On the other hand, Guo Haishen and Hong Dingxian easily entered Wenshui County through unintentional investigations by the officers and soldiers.

The two walked on the street, and Hong Ding looked around first.

"How long has it been since Brother Hong returned to his hometown?" Guo Haishen asked.

"It's been at least five or six years." Hong Dingxian shook his head and sighed: "Things change people..."

He sighed a little, but he quickly adjusted his mood and searched everywhere with Guo Haishen.

Hong Dingxian's uncle and aunt died, and there was still a cousin left. But his cousin had sold the house and moved to another county town. Now there was another stranger's house in the original house.

The gentry who was once killed by Hong Dingxian in the street has lost his family. His wife and concubines have remarried one after another, and their children have squandered their money and sold a lot of their property.

But another big family seized the opportunity and made up for the gaps that were vacant, becoming the new powerful man in Wenshui County, colluding with the magistrate, doing some forced buying and selling, and using inferior products as good businesses.
