A sharp roar instantly attracted everyone's attention.
I saw a man in shorts rushing out of the crowd. He jumped and flew onto the Wang family's ship.
Then he pulled out a long knife from his waist and slashed forward.
The members of the Wang family all wear white robes with the word "王" tattooed on their chests, making them particularly recognizable among the boatmen.
Puff.
Blood spurts.
The Wang family who rushed to the front were dead and dismembered in a blink of an eye.
"You all die, I want you all to be buried with the old gang leader."
The man wearing a bundt was roaring and waving the long knife in his hand very methodically.
The head of the Wang family who was in the cabin heard the noise and came out.
Seeing several Wang family members lying in a pool of blood, he said angrily: "You are looking for death."
He stepped hard on his foot, causing a wooden board on the deck to tilt up, and then slapped his right hand.
The deck flew straight towards the bunt man.
The bunt man held the knife in both hands and split the board in half with one stroke.
But in this stunned moment, the head of the Wang family had already stepped forward and struck the short-handed man with a series of palm strikes.
"Pfft!" The man with the bunt screamed, looking up to the sky and spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Without hesitation, he jumped into the river and disappeared without a trace.
"Don't pursue it anymore. Someone comes and informs the head of the family about this matter and lets him make a decision."
The steward of the Wang family stopped the men behind him.
At this moment, the Wang family standing at the bow of the ship panicked and said, "Oh no, there's a fire. Someone is setting the ship on fire."
Upon hearing this, the Wang family steward's expression changed and he walked to the edge of the boat.
I saw a group of people pouring kerosene on the boat underground, and at the stern of the boat, a ball of flame had already risen into the sky.
Now he knew that the short-handed man who rushed onto the boat was just trying to distract them and attract their attention so that the people behind him could take action.
These people have fallen into a trap.
"Damn it, get off the boat and put out the fire." The steward of the Wang family shouted in a rapid voice.
Plop, plop...
One by one, the Wang family members jumped off the boat and entered the river. They kept pushing the water with their hands in an attempt to extinguish the raging flames at the stern of the boat.
However, their boats were made of wood and were doused with kerosene.
Their remedial measures were of no avail. At most, they extinguished the part of the bottom immersed in the river water, and did not help the flames above.
After a while, everyone in the water gave up the action of diving.
He watched helplessly as the fire on the ship grew bigger and bigger, engulfing the entire ship.
The steward of the Wang family looked at this scene blankly, his face turned ashen, and he murmured to himself: "It's over, it's over."
The cargo of this ship was worth tens of thousands of gold. Even if he was cut into pieces, it wouldn't be enough to compensate him.
The Royal Family of Luling is located in the northwest of Luling City.
After thousands of years of development, the Wang family has a large population, and the Wang family compound where it is located is even more majestic and covers a large area.
The entire Wang Family Courtyard includes six lanes and seven forts, stretching for nearly six miles. There is even an artificial lake in the middle of the compound.
There is an attic next to the lake. At this time, Wang Jingzhi, the head of the Wang family, is dealing with the affairs at hand.
From the cultivation of the disciples in the clan, to the business dealings of the family, to the trivial conflicts in the compound, he has to deal with them all.
But these things are not as important as what the Wang family is doing secretly.
"Master, everyone is here, it's almost done."
Wang Jingzhi nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go there now."
In the Weihu Hall of the courtyard.
A lotus lantern like a white jade carving hangs from the top, and there is a hole above the lotus lantern.
The sunlight from the roof hits the lotus lanterns, making them shine brightly and brightening the hall.
In the spacious and bright hall, the floor is paved with marble, which is extremely luxurious.
Wang Jingzhi, the head of the Wang family, walked to the main seat and sat down, his face as calm as water.
On both sides of the main seat, there are two rows of seats. At this time, sitting on the seats are Yingjun's new martial arts forces in the past six months.
Most of them have been conquered by their royal family and have become vassal forces of their royal family.
These people have different images, including men and women, moral and secular.
There are both handsome and elegant rich men, honest farmers, tender women, and burly men with muscular bodies...
To name a few.
A burly man among the crowd said: "I wonder why the master summoned us today?"
He spoke sonorously and forcefully, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
Wang Jingzhi said calmly: "I am very impressed by Gang Leader Li's hard qigong. In my opinion, there are few people in Ying County who can match Gang Leader Li in terms of hard qigong."
The burly man cupped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, I am just a small sect, and my martial arts skills are not very advanced in the martial arts world. They are not as good as your master's magical skills."
Wang Jingzhi smiled, stopped talking, and said straight to the point: "Since you have joined our Wang family, our Wang family believes that we have not treated you badly. Now the Wang family is doing something big, which consumes a lot of money, and now I want you to contribute. "
"I don't know what kind of contribution the master of the family wants from us?"
Wang Jingzhi glanced at their faces one by one and said: "We want fifty warriors from each family, tens of thousands of stones, and one hundred thousand stones of food."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone's expressions froze.
Speaking of which, except for a few Wang families who joined on their own initiative, most of the others were forced to join the Wang family.
They have long known that once they join the Wang family, they will not have a good life.
I just didn't expect it to come so quickly.
It is easy to say that there are fifty warriors, tens of thousands of stones, and one hundred thousand stones of food.
But these few items alone account for almost half of the wealth of these gangs.
This is the capital that allows them to maintain their independence. If given, they will really have no choice but to look up to the Wang family and completely become their vassals.
But Wang Jingzhi's intention is to completely hollow them out.
Seeing that no one said anything, Wang Jingzhi's face was as calm as water. He said coldly: "I am not asking for your consent, but informing you."
At this time, Wang Jingzhi seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly said: "It just so happens that a junior of my Wang family has just made a breakthrough. I heard that you are all martial arts masters. How about you talk to me, a junior?"
"Since everyone is silent, I will assume that you all agree." Wang Jingzhi said with a hint of doubt in his tone: "Come here, call Master Wang Ning."
"yes!"
The Wang family servant beside him nodded, quickly agreed, and hurried out from the back door of the hall.
after awhile.
A young man slowly opened the door and walked in.
He looked to be no more than fifteen or sixteen years old. He was wearing a white robe and had sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, giving him a gentle and elegant look.
At first glance, he looks like a frail scholar.
He stood in the hall, his elegant eyes swept over everyone's faces one by one, and said with a smile: "Wang Ning has met the head of the family."
"This is the young disciple who was personally trained by our ancestor of the Wang family, Wang Ning, the Qilin son of the Wang family. He has learned the true inheritance of the ancient immortal way. In terms of the ancient immortal method, he has almost reached the threshold of foundation building. I don't know where. A gang leader wants to give it a try?"
During the introduction, Wang Jingzhi seemed to have a bit of pride in his tone.
Wang Ning said with a smile on his face: "All the gang leaders are the best among the martial arts. In the past, other uncles from the Wang family consulted with the gang leaders. I have always suffered from not having the opportunity to discuss with the gang leaders, but today I can get what I have learned." I wish."
"Haha, I wonder which gang leader is willing to try?"
Among the many gang leaders present, no one dared to move.
They all suffered losses at the hands of the Wang family.
After the last defeat, they secretly inquired and found out that the Wang family seemed to have mastered a brand new cultivation method, which was far more powerful than ordinary martial artists like them.
Seeing that no one was taking action, Wang Jingzhi, the head of the Wang family, glanced at everyone and suddenly said: "Let's do this. As long as you can stay in Wang Ning's hands, for every move you insist on, the things you have to give will be reduced by one." become."
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of many gang leaders present lit up.
As someone who was personally trained by the ancestor of the Wang family, it goes without saying that his talent and strength must be higher than theirs.
But to say that you can't pass even one move would be a bit alarmist.
This time the lion of the Wang family opened his mouth, there were ten thousand reluctances in their hearts.
If it could be reduced by 10%, that would be a lot.
"I'm here to ask for advice."
Among the crowd, an old man with gray hair and a childish face walked out.
Wang Jingzhi, the head of the Wang family, introduced: "This is Duan Youguo, the sect leader of the White Crane Sect. Despite his age, he is an innate eighth-grade martial artist. He is good at all kinds of secret power and is a master."
Hearing this, Wang Ning's face lit up and he focused his attention on Duan Youguo. He clasped his fists and said, "Master Duan, please show mercy."
"Haha." Duan Youguo sneered twice, suddenly exerted force on his legs, stepped up from the ground, and flew towards Wang Ning.
Duan Youguo held his palms forward and slapped Wang Ning hard.
His palm technique contains cold dark energy, which can easily penetrate the warrior's body-protecting Qi and penetrate deep into the opponent's internal organs.
Many people were deceived by his mediocre moves during the battle, and ended up suffering big losses.
Duan Youguo's movements were strange. When he was about to approach Wang Ning, he suddenly twisted his body and went around Wang Ning's side in a tricky posture.
A sharp palm struck down.
There was even a whistling sound in the air.
Pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft.
Duan Youguo struck Wang Ning with a series of palm strikes.
What he didn't expect was that the dark energy he was so proud of was like a mud cow drowning in Wang Ning's body, and there was no response at all.
Wang Ning turned to look at Duan Youguo and suddenly showed a warm smile: "Duan is very helpful."
Suddenly, he stamped his foot, and a triangular formation flag fell from his body, and then firmly planted on the ground.
Then he pinched the sword technique with his hand, and a golden shadow flew out, suddenly turned into an arc of light, and flashed past Duan Youguo.
The scene suddenly became quiet.
