Li Huan was startled.
Good heavens, Chen Jinnan has also arrived in Kunming!
What is his purpose?
Wei Xiaobao said in a low voice, "Brother Huan, come with me to the Heaven and Earth Society branch in Kunming to see the Grand Master!"
Li Huan readily agreed.
Immediately afterwards, Li Huan led Long'er, Wei Xiaobao, Da Shuang'er, and Xiao Shuang'er away from the inn and headed to the Heaven and Earth Society's branch.
Arrived at the branch headquarters.
Chen Jinnan sat upright in the hall, his expression serious.
Li Huan clasped his hands in greeting: "Chief, have your injuries fully healed?"
Chen Jinnan smiled slightly: "My injuries are no longer a big problem, and my internal strength has also recovered."
He looked at Long'er.
Who is this young lady?
Chen Jinnan, being experienced, recognized at a glance that Long'er was a woman disguised as a man.
Li Huan said, "She is Long'er, the leader of the Divine Dragon Cult who impersonated the Empress Dowager!"
Chen Jinnan stood up in surprise.
The Heaven and Earth Society brothers inside the hall also looked wary.
Long'er smiled and said, "Chief Chen, please forgive me for my past offenses."
Chen Jinnan asked, "Li Huan, why did you bring Wu Sangui's lackeys to the Heaven and Earth Society!"
Li Huan explained, "Long'er has abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, and is now working for me."
"Abandon darkness for light?" Chen Jinnan's brows furrowed slightly, his face full of suspicion.
Li Huan said, "Over the years, the Divine Dragon Sect has been serving Wu Sangui, recruiting soldiers and training experts for him, which has greatly enhanced Wu Sangui's strength!"
"However, when Wu Sangui's army was strong and well-equipped, he actually discarded the useful donkey after it had served its purpose, and sent Feng Xifan to secretly attack and capture the Divine Dragon Sect while Long'er was away, and subjugate a large number of followers."
Chen Jinnan sneered: "Wu Sangui is a traitor, cunning and ruthless!"
Li Huan continued, "Furthermore, Wu Sangui sent Wu Yingxiong to the Divine Dragon Sect to feign bestowing upon Long'er the title of Holy Maiden Protector of the Nation and to give her imperial wine!"
"But the wine contained the most potent poison in the world, the colorless and odorless Qi Yin He Huan San!"
Instantly, the brothers of the Heaven and Earth Society were in an uproar.
"Good heavens, the Qi Yin He Huan San! The most wicked poison in the world!"
"If a woman is poisoned by this drug, she must immediately engage in sexual intercourse with a man, or she will surely die!"
"The Dragon Cult Leader is safe and sound now, so he must have fused with a man..."
...
Hearing the discussion, Long'er's face flushed slightly.
Li Huan said, "Long'er was poisoned by the Qi Yin He Huan San and was unable to use the Shenlong Su Nu Gong of the Shenlong Sect. She was about to be taken over by Wu Yingxiong. I intervened in time and rode away to rescue Long'er."
"After escaping danger, in order to cure Long'er's poison, I did not hesitate to merge with her, saving her and gaining 80% of Long'er's power at the same time!"
Chen Jinnan was even more shocked: "Eighty percent of his power!"
All the brothers were envious.
Li Huan chuckled and said, "That's right, I already possess eighty percent of Long'er's power. Unfortunately, although my internal strength is profound, I don't know how to use it."
Chen Jinnan raised an eyebrow: "I can teach you how to unleash your internal strength."
The implication was that he was willing to accept Li Huan as his apprentice.
The second task of the "God-Level Lunch Box System" was for Li Huan to gain Chen Jinnan's trust and become sworn brothers with him.
If Li Huan becomes Chen Jinnan's apprentice, he will be unable to complete the system task.
Therefore, Li Huan ignored Chen Jinnan's words and said to Long'er, "The Grand Master is busy with affairs, so we won't trouble him. You can teach me how to use my inner strength when you have time."
Long'er nodded.
Chen Jinnan's expression was slightly embarrassed.
Li Huan said, "Long'er is already my person and has no disloyalty to me. The Grand Master does not need to worry that Long'er will do anything detrimental to the Heaven and Earth Society."
Chen Jinnan said, "With the Dragon Cult Leader by Li Huan's side, it's like adding wings to a tiger."
Long'er said, "Chief Chen, you flatter me. I am no longer the leader."
Chen Jinnan asked, "Would Miss Long be willing to join the Heaven and Earth Society?"
Long'er said, "Whether I join the Heaven and Earth Society or not, I will follow Li Huan from now on."
Chen Jinnan did not extend the invitation.
Li Huan asked, "Why has the Grand Master also come to Kunming?"
Chen Jinnan said, "I have received news that the dog emperor has betrothed Princess Jianning to Wu Yingxiong and appointed you as imperial envoy to escort Princess Jianning to Kunming to marry Wu Yingxiong."
"Therefore, I led my brothers to Kunming, intending to sneak into the Prince of Pingxi's mansion and assassinate Wu Sangui during Wu Yingxiong's wedding!"
Li Huan understood.
Chen Jinnan's assassination attempt on Emperor Kangxi failed, so he turned his attention to Wu Sangui.
"I've also received news that the dog emperor is gathering troops and preparing to besiege Kunming!"
Li Huan thought to himself, "Damn, Chen Jinnan's information network is really good."
It was obvious that he had placed informants in the palace.
Chen Jinnan continued, "That dog emperor is too naive. Wu Sangui has been raising troops for a long time, and has amassed 500,000 soldiers in various parts of Yunnan!"
"If Kunming is besieged by the dog emperor, troops from all over Yunnan will rush to its aid. At that time, the dog emperor's army will be surrounded instead!"
Li Huan nodded.
Chen Jinnan's words make sense.
Wu Sangui's willingness to rebel must have been the result of long-term planning and thorough preparation.
His troops are distributed throughout Yunnan. Once Kunming is attacked, the generals from various regions will surely come to its aid.
Therefore, it is clear that it was by no means easy for Kangxi to eliminate Wu Sangui.
Previously, the one-armed nun was worried that she would not be able to defeat the experts around Wu Sangui.
Chen Jinnan's words now made Li Huan worry that Kangxi's army would not be able to defeat Wu Sangui's army.
It is very necessary for the one-armed nun to infiltrate the Prince of Pingxi's mansion to assassinate Wu Sangui.
It was absolutely necessary for Chen Jinnan to infiltrate the Prince of Pingxi's residence to assassinate Wu Sangui!
Li Huan said, "Chief, you think you can't sneak into the Prince of Pingxi's mansion? On the day of Wu Yingxiong and Princess Jianning's wedding, the Prince of Pingxi's mansion will definitely be heavily guarded, and outsiders will be strictly prohibited from entering!"
Chen Jinnan smiled and said, "I had already considered this, which is why I notified Xiaobao and called you here in time so we could discuss countermeasures together!"
Li Huan frowned, his mind racing.
In the film adaptation of "The Deer and the Cauldron," Li Huan sends Duolong to impersonate a member of the Heaven and Earth Society, barge into the Prince of Pingxi's mansion shouting the slogan "Overthrow the Qing and restore the Ming," and then beat up Wu Sangui, creating a farcical scene.
In that farce, Duolong, wielding the imperial sword, tried to kill Wu Sangui. Wu Yingxiong then brought out the "immunity token" to stop Duolong, which in turn led to a scramble among the crowd for the token.
Wu Yingxiong hid his "immunity token" in his crotch, which led to him being attacked by the crowd and having his groin grabbed. Princess Jianning pretended to check on Wu Yingxiong's injury and took the opportunity to castrate him with a dagger.
In the end, Wu Sangui, enraged and humiliated, impulsively ordered Feng Xifan to immediately launch a rebellion and attack the capital!
Seeing that Wu Sangui had lost his mind and that the time was not ripe for him to raise an army, Feng Xifan cruelly killed Wu Sangui, presented his head to Emperor Kangxi, and surrendered to the court, thus obtaining an official position.
If the plot unfolds as it does, Wu Sangui will undoubtedly die.
Li Huan was worried that the plot might change.
However, we should try this underhanded tactic first, using Duolong to deal with Wu Sangui.
Li Huan said, "Chief, I have a brilliant plan to give Wu Sangui a good beating!"
