With Luo Changshi, a local snake, the four of them moved more smoothly after entering Chief Tongtu's territory. Lu Jing didn't even have to take action.
Seeing that they were about to arrive at Ganding County, where Chief Tong Tu was located, Qi Wenren finally couldn't hold it in any longer. When he stopped to take a rest, he pulled Lu Jing aside and lowered his voice.
"How on earth did you get this father and daughter to join the gang? Was it coercion by force?"
Qi Wenren thought for a while but couldn't figure out why Luo Changshi and his daughter were following them. After all, Luo Changshi managed to escape from Chief Tongtu's territory and save his life.
Come back now, don't look at the tiger skin, it has been smooth sailing so far, but the danger is actually not small. Once the identity is exposed, Chief Tongtu will definitely send people to arrest them immediately.
And even if the fish school was successfully found in the end, it seemed to have nothing to do with Luo Changshi and his daughter.
"Oh, I have to thank Mr. Ji for this." Lu Jing said.
"Mr. Ji, what does it have to do with him?" Qi Wenren was confused.
"Now not only are the three northwest states in chaos, but the world has already been in turmoil. This is certainly not a good thing for ordinary people, but for those who are ambitious, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
"What do you mean, Luo Changshi also wants to dominate the world?" Qi Wenren suddenly felt that people should not be judged by their appearance.
Lu Jing said, "That's not true. He still has a relatively clear understanding of his own situation. He just wants to find a suitable person to join him and show off what he has learned in his life."
"Then you introduced Mr. Ji to him?" Qi Wenren's expression became serious.
"How can that be possible? He doesn't know Mr. Ji either," Lu Jing shook his head, "I introduced Zhaozong to him."
"Zhaozong, didn't he die more than forty years ago?"
"Well, almost, but in order to gather people's hearts, Mr. Ji brought out Zhaozong's banner again. He found someone to pretend to be Zhaozong and swindled everywhere. He had even been to the three northwest states before.
"As the chief historian of Tongtu Chief, Luo Changshi had heard similar rumors, which saved me a lot of trouble. I agreed to take him to see Zhaozong, and he agreed to be our guide, because he was in Liang The city is about to get sick."
"…………"
Qi Wenren didn't know what to say for a moment. After a while, he said, "Then he will become Mr. Ji's man?"
"No, I am absolutely sure that Zhaozong will not want him." Lu Jing said confidently.
Considering the latter's situation, he would obediently do whatever Lu Jing said.
Luo Changshi on the other side didn't know that he had been fired early by the new owner before he met him. At this moment, he was still actively working and trying to show his abilities.
He walked over and said to Lu Jing and Qi Wenren, "We are only twenty miles away from Ganding County. If everything goes well, we can arrive before sunset, but if we want to enter the city, we have to pass the gate guard."
Seeing Luo Changshi frowning, Qi Wenren couldn't help but feel a little strange, and said, "Can't you trick them into letting us in like you did before?"
"This trick can no longer be used here." Luo Changshi said, "I have been working for Chief Tongtu for three years, and I was working in Ganding before. Too many people in this city have seen me. It won’t take long for someone to recognize you if you come forward.”
"Then how do we get into the city?" Qi Wenren also frowned and looked at Lu Jing.
As a result, Lu Jing was seen looking at Luo Changshi.
Luo Changshi knew that his first big test was coming. The fact that he deceived those Shen tribe members on the road was just the icing on the cake. After all, with Lu Jing's martial arts, it would be no problem to deal with those guys.
Now it's time for him to really make a difference.
Fortunately, based on his understanding of Ganding County, this kind of thing would not be a problem for him. Luo Changshi thought for a moment and came up with a way to enter the city.
"I can find a friend to take us. He is Akuman."
"What is Akuman?"
"Most people of the Shen tribe believe in the God of Fire. In the language of the Shen tribe, Akuman is a person who serves the God of Fire. These people devote their lives to the God of Fire. They do not marry or have children and are impoverished. But among the people of the Shen tribe, But very respected.
"They rarely speak, but when they do speak, the words they speak are like oracles. No one can violate them. Even the soldiers guarding the city dare not question them."
"But will such a person help us?"
"Yes," Luo Changshi said, "I saved an Akuman's life about ten years ago, and he owes me this. In this chaos in the northwest, if Chief Tongtu wants to kill me because he doesn't miss his old friendship, I plan to I asked someone to talk to him and save my life, but later I left Shizhou smoothly, so I didn’t need this favor.”
"Where are they now?" Lu Jing asked.
"We have to take a slight detour to the temple in the north of the city, but fortunately it's not too far."
The four of them, led by Luo Changshi, arrived in front of the temple in the north of the city.
It is said to be a temple, but in fact it is just a few stone huts. Not only does it look very shabby, but it also leaks from all directions. It does not have the majesty of a temple at all.
There were very few people inside, only two, one big and one small.
It was clearly winter, but both of them were wearing only a single piece of clothing, barefoot, and kept kowtowing to a flame in the house.
While Lu Jing was watching, they had kowtowed hundreds of times. Even the ground they kowtowed on had been smoothed and looked extremely smooth.
Luo Changshi waited until they straightened up before speaking to the older Akuman, "Dole..."
The Akuman named Dole also raised his head and looked at Luo Changshi.
It wasn't until he met him face to face that Lu Jing noticed a scar on Dole's face, extending from his left eye to his lips. It looked very scary.
Dole did not speak, but quietly waited for Luo Changshi's next words.
Luo Changshi didn't waste any time and went straight to the point, "I need you to do me a favor and take the four of us into the city."
Dole finally spoke after hearing his words, and said in somewhat broken Chinese, "You shouldn't have come back."
"Should I do it or not? Anyway, I'm back. I'll go in and do something and leave. As long as you're willing to help, we'll move quickly and no one will know I'm back."
"You underestimate Tongtu Chieftain too much. He was not idle while you were gone. He recruited many masters during this period." Dole said, "If I were you, I should take advantage of now. It’s not too late to go back home.”
"We Chen people have an old saying: If you know that there are tigers in the mountains, you will go to the tiger mountains." Luo Changshi said, "If you had looked ahead and looked back, I would not have saved you back then."
Dole was speechless, "You don't have to keep talking about this. I'll just help you. But you have to wait until tomorrow to enter the city."
"Why?"
"Because Chief Tongtu's daughter is getting married today, the city gate was closed early."
