"Dragon head, Li Junjian brings it!"
On Snake Spirit Mountain, the Tianlong Sect member named Meng brought Li Junjian to the thatched house where the man in the iron mask was, and bowed.
Last year, Li Zexuan used gunpowder to directly flatten the top of Snake Spirit Mountain. The houses built by the Seventh Cultivator Sect were naturally gone. The people from the Tianlong Sect only moved here at noon today, so they would definitely not have time to renovate the houses. , we could only temporarily build a few thatched houses.
"Well! You go down!"
The man with the iron mask said "hmm" and said calmly.
"Yes! Dragon Head!"
The congregants named Meng walked away.
"I heard that you have something very important that you want to hand over to me? Take it out!"
After the congregant withdrew, only Du'e, the man with the iron mask, and Li Junjian were left in the room. The man with the iron mask turned around, looked at Li Junjian, and said in a deep voice.
"That's right! But how do I know that you are my teaching leader?"
Li Junjian looked up at the man in the iron mask and said without fear.
In fact, at this time, there was already a storm in his heart. He never expected that the Tianlong Sect would choose to settle in Sheling Mountain. Yes, he knew it was called Sheling Mountain because he had another identity, Li Junxian, the commander of Baiqi Division. ! This Li Junjian's name was just a temporary fabrication he made in order to sneak into the Tianlong Sect!
Although Li Junxian did not personally participate in the battle of Sheling Mountain last year, he had visited this place in the early stage when he sent people to help Li Zexuan find the address of the Seventh Xiu Sect. Now it has been nearly a year since the Seventh Xiu Sect was destroyed. Snake Lingshan has long since dissipated in people's memory, and today the Dragon Sect has chosen Snakeling Mountain as its stronghold. Li Junxian has to admit that this is an excellent choice, because almost no one in the court would think of this place!
"Bold! How dare you disrespect the dragon's head in front of him!"
Du'e, who was standing aside, shouted loudly at this time.
"See Your Majesty!"
Li Junxian first clasped his fists and saluted Du'e, then bowed to the iron-faced man and said, "Since the Venerable said that you are the dragon's head, you must be the dragon's head. I have never seen the true appearance of the dragon's head." , the things in my hands are of great importance, so I have no choice but to confirm the identity of Dragon Head, please forgive me for any offence!"
The man in the iron mask looked at Li Junxian deeply, as if he wanted to see through Li Junxian directly. After a long time, he finally said: "Take out the thing! If it is really important as you said, then I will spare your life!"
Li Junxian quickly bowed and said: "Thank you Dragon Head!"
After that, he reached out and took out a blue-covered book from his arms, then raised it above his head with both hands and said:
"Reporting to the Dragon Head, at noon today, you and the Venerable left in a hurry and left this account book in the lower secret room of Tianlong Temple. After you left, the imperial court sent a large army to encircle Tianlong Temple. My subordinates I felt that this account book must be of great importance, so I took the account book with me and rushed out of the siege while the officers and soldiers were unprepared. However, my subordinates were worried that something might happen if they put the account book on them, so they went around to find out where you were, Longsou. I handed the account book to you personally, and now that I finally see you, my subordinates can finally rest assured this time!"
The iron-faced man's eyes were as bright as lightning. Hearing this, he first glanced coldly at Du'e, who was standing next to him, and then looked at Li Junxian and said, "You mean what you are holding in your hand is our account book. ?”
Li Junxian bowed and said: "Replying to your lord, after picking up the account book, my subordinate subconsciously flipped through a page and saw that it said that Jin Wanfu, the manager of Yanhuang Bank in Xinfeng County, paid tribute of 4,000 Tang Yuan in February. I paid a tribute of 5,000 Tang Yuan, so I guessed that this was probably my teaching’s account book! But I didn’t mean to look through it, so please forgive me!”
"Hmph! Submit it!"
Hearing this, the iron-faced man couldn't hold back his anger any longer and spoke.
"yes!"
Li Junxian pretended to be careful, holding the account books, and came to the man with the iron mask. When he got close to the man with the iron mask, Li Junxian felt a strong fluctuation of inner energy, which made him unable to help but feel a little confused. Logically speaking, Shouldn't this Dragon Head of the Tianlong Sect be a person with strong martial arts skills? Otherwise, how can you convince the public? Or is it that this person's martial arts cultivation has reached the level of a great master, so that's why he can't feel the slightest fluctuation of true energy?
When Li Junxian was confused, the man with the iron mask snatched the account book from his hand, then opened the account book and read it carefully.
"Hmph! Come here! Bring Zhang Liang here!"
Leaning slightly, after the iron-faced man confirmed that the book in his hand was indeed the original account book of Tianlong Sect, he couldn't help but smashed the account book to Du'e beside him and said angrily.
"Yes! Dragon Head!"
The Tianlong Sect who was guarding outside the thatched house was confused for a while, but then he still bowed and accepted the order.
After a while, a middle-aged scribe came in, stepped forward and said, "Longshou, are you looking for me?"
Li Junxian on the side, although his face was calm at this moment, there was already a storm in his heart, because the Zhang Liang in front of him, whom he had met a few days ago, had another identity, that is, the judge of the Tianlong Sect. , in charge of the affairs of the disciples. Li Junxian did not expect that the judge of the Tianlong Sect was actually named Zhang Liang, and he always felt that the name Zhang Liang was very familiar. When he thought about it carefully, wasn't he the magistrate of Yong County in Lanzhou who was wanted by the court?
As for whether the two are the same person, Li Junxian doesn't know, but just that is enough to attract his attention!
"Hmph! Du'e, show him! Show him the stupid thing he did!"
The iron-faced man pointed at Zhang Liang and said angrily.
If he knew the modern term "pig teammate", he would definitely mercilessly call Zhang Liang a "pig teammate" at this moment! Because if this account book falls into the hands of the imperial court, the imperial court can rely on the contents of the account book to "find things according to the picture." Step by step, all the "wings" of the Tianlong Sect will be cut off. By then, the Tianlong Sect will completely become a bird without wings, unable to fly high even if it wants to!
Zhang Liang looked confused. He didn't know why the iron-faced man was so angry. Du'e, who was on the side, came over at this time, handed the account book in his hand to Zhang Liang, and whispered seriously: "Judge Zhang, this The account books are related to the life and death of Tianlong Sect, you must not be careless in the future!"
Zhang Liang couldn't help being surprised when he saw the book in his hand. After he opened it and saw the contents, he said with disbelief: "Impossible! Impossible! I obviously carry this account book with me, how could it be here? ?”
"Hmph! You are pretending to be confused with me when you are about to die! If this account book had not been sent by Li Junjian, a disciple of our sect, it would have fallen into the hands of the imperial court! Zhang Liang, Zhang Liang, you bastard, do you want to take this opportunity? Transfer the account books to the imperial court, get an official position, and continue to bully men and women?"
The man in the iron mask roared almost crazily, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent. Obviously, he had murderous intentions!
"Longshou, this subordinate is wronged! I am a member of the Tianlong Sect in life, and I will be a ghost of the Tianlong Sect in death. There is no way that I will betray Longshou and join the imperial court! Please ask Longshou for a clear warning! The account books of our sect are true. I always carry it with me, and my subordinates come to Longshou for some unknown reason! Please tell me, Longshou!"
Feeling the murderous intent in the iron-masked man's eyes, Zhang Liang quickly knelt on his knees and begged for mercy.
"Hmph! You still refuse to plead guilty? Li Junjian, tell me where you found this account book?"
The iron-faced man snorted angrily, looked at Li Junxian who had been standing aside for a long time and said.
"Go back to Longshou. This subordinate found this account book in the underground secret room of Tianlong Temple. I think the judge must have been careless before leaving and forgot to take it away!"
Li Junxian took a step forward and cupped his fists.
"Fart! You're talking nonsense! You're lying! I remember it clearly and took the account books with me when I left. Don't spit on me here, otherwise you won't blame me for being rude to you!"
Zhang Liang was furious when he heard this.
Li Junxian pursed his lips, with a timid expression on his face, but did not refute.
Of course what he just said was a lie. As a judge of the Tianlong Sect, Zhang Liang could not have forgotten such an important thing as the account book in the Tianlong Temple when he organized the retreat. He did take the account book with him when he left, but When he was leaving the gate of Tianlong Temple, he happened to bump into Li Junxian. What kind of master is Li Junxian? If he wants to get something from a weak scholar who has no knowledge of martial arts, wouldn't it be easy?
So the account book that Zhang Liang was carrying was taken away by Li Junxian without anyone noticing!
Fortunately, Zhang Liang was in a hurry and didn't have time to take a closer look at Li Junxian's appearance. Otherwise, he would have suspected that Li Junxian had stolen his account books!
"enough!"
Li Junxian's refusal to refute seemed to the man in the iron mask that he was afraid of Zhang Liang's power and did not dare to refute, so the man in the iron mask couldn't help but said angrily: "This time you left the account book in Tianlong Temple, and you almost lost it." Let our sect suffer huge losses. For the sake of my sect member Li Junjian sending back the account books, I will not kill you this time, but the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped. Come on! Drag Zhang Liang down. Cut off two of his fingers as punishment!"
"yes!"
Two Tianlong Sect members came in and dragged Zhang Liang up from the ground. Zhang Liang cried and shouted:
"Dragon Head, forgive me! Dragon Head, forgive me!"
The man with the iron mask waved his hand, signaling the two congregants to take Zhang Liang away quickly.
A moment later, a scream was heard from outside the house: "Ah~! My hand! My finger!"
inside the house.
The man with the iron mask cast his gaze on Li Junxian. After looking at him for a long time, he said, "Li Junjian, you just said that you escaped from the siege of officers and soldiers with your account books. So you know martial arts?"
Li Junxian's heart was shuddered, and he quickly bowed and replied: "Hui Longshou, my subordinate came from a poor family when he was young. He often went hunting with his father in the mountains. He has been dealing with tigers and ferocious beasts for many years, and he has developed some fighting skills. It should be You can’t be considered as someone who knows martial arts!”
The iron-faced man smiled, then looked at Du'e and winked slightly. Du'e understood immediately, and then with a stroke of his Zen staff, he suddenly whizzed towards Li Junxian's face without any warning.
Li Junxian was already prepared. When the Zen staff was less than a foot away from him, he rolled directly to the ground, dodging Du'e's blow "narrowly and narrowly", and then Du'e put it in his hand. The Zen staff slammed into Li Junxian's body. Li Junxian seemed to be unable to avoid it, but he jumped up from the ground like a carp, and then faced the golden Zen staff with both hands!
"puff!"
As soon as the golden Zen staff came into contact with Li Junxian's palm, Li Junxian couldn't help but vomit blood and was knocked to one knee!
The iron-faced man watching the battle had clenched his hands before, with murderous intent flashing in his eyes. However, when he saw Li Junxian being hit by Du'e's Zen staff and vomiting blood, the murderous intent in his eyes quickly dissipated!
"Ha! Not bad! You reacted quickly!"
Du'e smiled, stepped forward to help Li Junxian up from the ground, and said with a smile.
A sudden test just now proved that Li Junxian did not have any advanced martial arts. At most, his reaction was faster than that of ordinary people. This was completely in line with the physical fitness of an Orion! At the same time, this also proves that Li Junxian did not lie!
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for showing mercy!"
Li Junxian wiped the remaining blood on his mouth, then clasped his fist towards Du E with a look of "reverence" on his face.
Ahem, in fact, he didn't vomit blood because he was beaten by Du'e, but he used his own internal force to slightly injure his internal organs, so he vomited blood.
Du'e was very satisfied with Li Junxian's attitude. He turned around and nodded imperceptibly to the man in iron mask, indicating that there was nothing wrong with Li Junjian in front of him.
The man in the iron mask pondered for a moment and then said: "Venerable Du'e likes martial arts and likes to spar with people when he meets them. Don't blame him for this!"
Li Junxian said quickly: "Longshou's words are true! To be taught martial arts by the venerable is a blessing that I have cultivated in my previous life. How can I blame the venerable?"
"OK!"
The iron-faced man laughed loudly, and then asked: "Li Junjian, I ask you, why do you want to join the Tianlong Sect?"
When Li Junxian heard this, his expression immediately darkened. He was silent for a moment and then replied: "Hui Longshou, I joined the Tianlong Sect just to ask for a bowl of Yaochi holy water for my mother! When my mother gave birth to me, The root cause of the disease has come to an end, and I often suffer from abdominal pain. A few years ago, my father accidentally fell off a cliff when he went hunting in the mountains."
Du'e was very satisfied with Li Junxian's attitude. He turned around and nodded imperceptibly to the man in iron mask, indicating that there was nothing wrong with Li Junjian in front of him.
The man in the iron mask pondered for a moment and then said: "Venerable Du'e likes martial arts and likes to spar with people when he meets them. Don't blame him for this!"
