Chapter 0083 Dead End
As a result, Xiao Rong's strike lasted for an entire afternoon, and because he had a nap in the evening, he became more energetic after nightfall. This was hard for the Buddhist disciple. Not being able to sleep the night before going to an expedition was an exception. Most of the time, his daily routine was very regular, which was a habit he had from when he was a novice monk.
Yawning slightly, Mi Jing tried to open his eyes wide and continued to accompany the gentleman at the cost of his life. …
Time goes back to noon of this day.
In a private house in Xiakou, Chen Jiancheng finally stopped practicing Tai Chi. He chatted and laughed with Zhou Liang, and promoted to Zhou Liang the beliefs of their Qingfeng Sect, to eliminate those with foul spirits and bring peace and prosperity to the world.
Zhou Liang listened with a smile on his face, nodding to Chen Jiancheng from time to time. In fact, what he was thinking was, what was the point of playing Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio with a thousand-year-old fox? If there really was such a thing as pure air and turbid air in the world, then your Qingfeng Sect should be the first to be eliminated. ...
Just as Chen Jiancheng didn't think much of Zhou Liang, Zhou Liang also didn't think much of Chen Jiancheng, the leader of the Qingfeng Sect.
In the official history, after Zhou Liang left Huang Yanjing, he quickly became a disciple of He Tingzhi. He Tingzhi had three thousand disciples, and he would accept anyone who came to him. Zhou Liang thought this was a very good habit. Regardless of whether He Tingzhi himself was so open-minded or not, he finally showed such an attitude, and it was this attitude that people all over the world valued.
Therefore, when escaping this time, Zhou Liang's first reaction was to go to He Tingzhi first. If it was okay, he would stay, and if not, he would leave.
But he was unlucky. First of all, his defection this time was not as smooth as in the official history. He killed Huang Yanjiong's subordinates before leaving in a hurry. He didn't know what was wrong with the King of Zhenbei. He had no relationship with him at all, but he actually sent people to draw his portrait and posted it in Chenliu and the surrounding towns. He had to hide for a long time before he could get through that crisis.
Later, when he finally returned to Nanyong, he wanted to go to Dongyang immediately. However, before he arrived in Dongyang, when he just arrived in Xuancheng, he heard that the King of Dongyang had left, so he personally led his troops to respond to the call of the King of Zhenbei.
Zhou Liang: “…………”Flatterer!
Anyone with a discerning eye knew that it would take at least half a year for Prince Dongyang to come and go. If Zhou Liang went to Dongyang first to wait for him, he would have to be prepared for a protracted war and hope that Prince Dongyang did not die in the war with the Xianbei.
At a time when the world situation is changing rapidly, the situation may change completely in two months, let alone half a year. Zhou Liang doesn't know that He Tingzhi is his destined leader. Now he thinks that his time is the most precious.
Since Prince Dongyang is no longer capable, he will go find someone else. As a scholar, no matter how petty Zhou Liang is, he still has some connections. Besides, fish seek fish, shrimp seek shrimp, and turtles seek King Kong. Friends who really get along with Zhou Liang are not easy to deal with.
At the recommendation of a friend, Zhou Liang learned that the leader of the Qingfeng Sect was also collecting staff. After pondering for a long time, Zhou Liang decided to come and take a look.
The Qingfeng Sect has huge assets and complex networks, and ordinary people cannot do anything to them, but their shortcomings are also obvious. First, they are not favored by various forces. Second, they do not have a professional and large army. Third, their beliefs make them successful or unsuccessful. They rely on fanatical believers, and fanatical believers do not completely listen to them. Once they find out that the leader and others are selfish and do not really want to restore justice to the world, the backlash from these fanatical believers will be more terrifying than an army attacking them.
Of course, these were his thoughts before meeting Chen Jiancheng. After meeting Chen Jiancheng, Zhou Liang eliminated the fourth shortcoming in his mind. The leader was selfish and had no idea at all. It was really strange that Qingfeng Sect had never encountered any problems under the leadership of such a person.
Chen Jiancheng was testing Zhou Liang, and Zhou Liang was also testing Chen Jiancheng. To be honest, they were equally good, but if they had to be divided, Zhou Liang was still better.
Because no matter how Chen Jiancheng tries to put on a laurel wreath, in reality he is still a charlatan. Although he really wants to be an emperor, unfortunately, he is not as capable as Huang Yanjiong in achieving hegemony.
Zhou Liang is a natural politician. No matter how obvious his character flaws are, his ability is unquestionable.
After chatting with Chen Jiancheng for several days, Zhou Liang even came up with a wonderful idea. He felt that he could replace Chen Jiancheng, or make him a puppet in his hands. In this way, all the assets of the Qingfeng Sect would be his.
In this way, the two of them got along better and better, and they both felt that they could use each other. On this day, Chen Jiancheng finally showed his true colors. He smiled mysteriously at Zhou Liang and said that he knew what Zhou Liang had encountered in Chenliu City, and he also knew that Zhou Liang hated Xiao Rong, and he was willing to help Zhou Liang get rid of this person. If Zhou Liang could successfully get rid of Xiao Rong with his help, then this would be Zhou Liang's contribution to the Qingming world, and also the military order he handed over to the Qingfeng Sect. He would no longer have to start from the bottom, but could directly become one of the guardians around him.
There is no fixed number of bodyguards around Chen Jiancheng. Sometimes there are only a few, and sometimes there are more than ten. It all depends on his mood.
He thought the olive branch he extended was generous enough, but after hearing what he said, Zhou Liang took note of it in his heart.
This was the most embarrassing moment in his life, and Chen Jiancheng actually knew about it?! You bastard, you better go to hell. When I take power, I will kill everyone who knows about this! …
But he did not refuse this matter. The more he wanted Shangguan to trust him, the more he wanted to accomplish a big thing. Killing Xiao Rong could just prove his ability, and the Qingfeng Sect's style of never showing up also won his heart. At least in this way, King Zhenbei would not know who killed Xiao Rong.
Zhou Liang had already begun to think carefully about how to kill Xiao Rong, and had even made the framework of the plan. At this time, a member of the Qingfeng Sect came in from outside the door. He handed a letter to Chen Jiancheng, and Chen Jiancheng took it out and glanced at it, his expression changed slightly.
After a moment, he burned the letter in front of Zhou Liang, and then smiled at Zhou Liang: "Sir, you don't know that the situation outside has changed. I'm afraid that the matter you and I discussed will have to be put on hold for the time being."
Zhou Liang felt okay after hearing this. After all, that's how it was when competing for the throne. You had to react according to the situation at all times. But what made him uneasy was Chen Jiancheng's next sentence.
"To the world, that kid named Xiao is just a harmless louse. The real black sheep is the King of Zhenbei, to whom he is loyal."
"The world has suffered from the King of Zhenbei for a long time. I wonder if you have any plan to help the world get rid of the King of Zhenbei?"
Zhou Liang looked at him quietly, and after a while he realized that he was not joking.
“…………”
You're crazy, do you really think so?!
Let’s go back to tonight.
While Xiao Rong and Fuzi were working overtime passionately in Chenliu, Qu Yunmie had not yet fallen asleep.
The army has gathered at the foot of Yanmen Mountain and will set out for Shengle tomorrow.
The long-cherished wish was finally fulfilled. If it were anyone else, they would be too excited to sleep, but Qu Yunmie was not an ordinary person, so he was not too excited to sleep, he was too painful to sleep. That was it.
