Wugong Village is more than a hundred miles south of Fengshitan, and not far from the coastline.
Precisely because it is not far from the seaside and a large number of warriors gather here, this place has become the front line for Jiangnan warriors to fight against Japanese pirates.
After the fifth group arrived at Wugong Village, they naturally met Wu Shitong, the unpretentious leader of the village. This person's martial arts skills are good, but they are not top-notch. He just likes to make friends with martial arts warriors, so the friends he has met in the martial arts community, including Xiaoyao Sect, Xingjian Sect and other martial arts sects in the south and north of the Yangtze River, all have good relations with Wugong Village.
However, according to Yan Ji, Wugong Village is not a martial arts sect, so the people in Wugong Village never participate in the disputes between the Central Plains military elites. In comparison, it is a purely non-governmental organization that fights against Japanese pirates, and is much more pure than the Anti-Japanese Alliance. The people in Wugong Village, except for the many nearby people who had suffered from Japanese pirates, voluntarily moved into the village to take refuge and fought against Japanese pirates together, the people with higher martial arts skills were almost all good friends of Wu Shitong who he knew in the world. It's just that these good friends saw that Wu Shitong was an upright man and it was not easy to fight against Japanese pirates for a long time. Out of their own chivalrous hearts, they took the initiative to resist Wugong Village and fight with Wu Shitong against Japanese pirates.
"The fifth young hero, where are Sect Master Ren and the others?" Wu Shitong asked.
"We have received news that the Japanese pirates will land near Fengshitan. Senior Ren and the others have already gone to ambush them. They should have arrived by now." The fifth line answered.
Wu Gong looked at a young woman at this time. Although she seemed a little weak, she had a different flavor of the world. It was more like she had just entered the world, but she had a high status.
"Presumably this is the new leader of the Kunlun Sect, leader Xue?" Wu Shitong asked.
"Oh! The little girl Xue Qingrou recognizes the seniors of the Kunlun Sect and temporarily takes over the position of head of the Kunlun Sect. Every time I feel that my talents are limited and my abilities are insufficient, yet I have to shoulder such an important responsibility, I often feel uneasy." Xue Qingrou said politely.
"Haha! The girl is so humble! Since the girl can successfully take over the Kunlun Sect and allow the Kunlun Sect to continue to stand among the nine major sects in the world without being affected by foreign affairs, it is obvious that the girl still has great abilities." Wu Shitong replied with a smile.
"Zhai Master, is there anyone outside the south gate who wants to see you?" At this time, a village soldier came to report.
"Did you see clearly? Who is he?" Wu Shitong asked.
"They seem to be officers and soldiers!" Zhai Ding replied.
"Officers? Aren't the officers and soldiers led by General Chu and the others ambushing nearby? Why did they come to Wugong Village?" The fifth line also asked curiously.
"Could it be a scam?" Zhizhi also felt suspicious.
"Whether it's a scam or not, you'll know if you go to the south gate and take a look." Wu Shitong said.
There are three gates in Wugong Village, the east gate, the west gate and the south gate. The north gate is on a high mountain. Although there is a path to get in and out, it is very difficult to walk. Even people from Wugong Village would easily get lost on the mountain if they walked this way during the day, so it was difficult to enter here and there was no gate.
"Yes! If they are officers and soldiers, we will probably know a few people. If they are all strangers, then it is a scam." The fifth line also agreed.
So, Wu Shitong took the fifth line and others to the south gate again, only to see a group of officers and soldiers outside the south gate. However, the officer leading the army did not look like an officer, but more like a eunuch.
"It seems to be Eunuch Shi!" Zhizhi saw at first glance that the person leading the army was none other than Eunuch Shi, the official of Dongchang Changchang.
"But has Eunuch Shi arrived?" the fifth line asked loudly.
"It's our house. Please open the village owner's door and let me and other officers and soldiers in!" Shi Zhong said angrily.
"Hey! This person looks familiar, and he looks so evil. I think I've seen him somewhere before?" Sun Xiaowu suddenly said to himself.
"Master, you are really stupid. We met Eunuch Shi more than once at Xiaoyaomen!" Zhizhi said with a smile.
"No! I'm not talking about him as a person, but the evil spirit in him. I seem to have encountered him in other places." Sun Xiaowu replied.
"No way! Eunuch Shi has been training officers and soldiers with Master Hong and General Chu. How could Master have seen him in other places?" Zhizhi retorted.
"Maybe I'm really confused!" Sun Xiaowu also felt that the princess was right, so he didn't think much about it.
At this time, Eunuch Shi led hundreds of officers and soldiers, all of whom had entered Wugong Village.
"Eunuch Shi, why are you here?" Zhizhi asked.
"Oh! Mr. Hong and General Chu are worried that you are short of manpower, so they asked us to bring some officers and soldiers to help." Eunuch Shi replied.
"Oh! It's better if you think more carefully." The fifth line agreed.
At this time, Sun Xiaowu remained silent because he discovered that the evil spirit he felt just now came not only from Shi Zhong, but also from another person in the army. It's just that the man from the army was dressed like a eunuch, but he also wore a straw hat to cover his face, but Sun Xiaowu couldn't see his face clearly.
Sun Xiaowu saw that this man was dressed in a somewhat nondescript manner, so he asked, "Zhizhi, who is that eunuch with the straw hat?"
Zhizhi's true identity is Princess Qingying, and she should know everyone who comes from the government. It was just that Zhizhi glanced at the man twice and suddenly recognized him.
After a while, Zhizhi said: "He seems to be Uncle Shi Taishi! When did she come and why didn't I notice it?"
When Sun Xiaowu heard that this man's surname was Shi, he immediately fell into deep thought, but did not speak.
"What's the matter? Master!" Zhizhi asked.
"Oh! I just feel that these two people have a strong evil spirit." Sun Xiaowu replied.
"Oh! Master, I don't know. Eunuch Shi and Eunuch Shi are actually famous in the world. They are called the old demon and the snake demon respectively!" Zhizhi replied.
When Zhizhi said this, Sun Xiaowu became even more nervous, thinking in his mind: "Snake demon? Shi Tai? How can it be such a coincidence? Both are named Shi, and both are related to snakes. Are they the same person?"
But when Sun Xiaowu thought about it, Shi Taineng entered Dongchang and stayed in the palace for at least twenty or thirty years. Logically speaking, he should not have too much relationship with Japanese pirates and most martial arts people in the world. The reason why the people in Dongchang also have the reputation of Jianghu is that most of them come from the imperial court and some of their enemies. Therefore, if eunuchs have nicknames in private, they are usually not very pleasant.
"Where are Commander Chu and Commander Wang?" Zhizhi asked.
"They have received the latest news and have gone after the Japanese pirates?" Eunuch Shi replied.
"The latest news? Who sent it?" Zhizhi asked confused.
"I don't know, it comes from a mysterious person, it seems!" Zhizhi replied
Mystery man? Sure enough, there was a mysterious person, and the fifth line finally believed it.
