Nangong Tong was resting in Room No. 1, the best and most expensive inn in Tianyang City. Below him was a white tiger skin specially sent by the owner of Baili Shuizhai. The items in the room were specially purchased and delivered by the gang leaders in Yangming City. They were also fumigated with incense brought specifically from their hometown in Jingzhou. Even if it was far worse than the Nangong family's own houses, there were not many maids with him, they were definitely the most comfortable residence in Tianyang City.

But Nangong Tong has a headache now.

Of course, he was not sick. He had been bathed in the diet and bathed with the guidance of famous doctors since childhood. In addition, although he had not entered the house, he was quite a bit of a fever in the Nangong family. The general wind and cold are far from invading the body. He was just annoyed now, and he had never been so annoyed like this. It can even be said that in his more than 20 years of life, he almost never knew that this person was still so worried about his life. Before that, he thought that the most troublesome thing in the world was how to get rid of the Hongyan Pavilion girl who had once had a spring breeze, and how to deal with the jealousy between his beautiful maids.

Toto's knock on the door sounded, and he barely said in a relatively stable voice: "Is it Brother Li Shi? Please come in."

The one who came in was indeed Li Shishi. The Li family was also one of the aristocratic families, but it was not as huge as the Nangong family, and its foundation was not above the world. In comparison, this honest young man did not have the graceful style that made people shine like Nangong Tong, but it was thick, capable and practical like a millstone. After he came in, he did not make much courteous and said to Nangong Tong directly: "The letter has been sent out. It is not a matter of one or two to choose a suitable person to take on this supervisory position. It seems that he will have to stay here for a few more days."

"How many days will it last?" Nangong Tong felt that his head was getting more and more painful. "This Yangming City is just a small county town. Our progress was already very slow, and we had to delay time here. I wonder how long it will take to complete the remaining itinerary? Can't we just choose someone to carry this position first?"

"...If you choose any one now, your hands will only be bigger in the future..." Li Shishi spread his hands. "Of course, Brother Nangong Shi is still the leader of our journey. If Brother Nangong really feels that he is in a hurry, we can deal with it for the time being and then clean up slowly in the future."

"Then let's choose a little more..." Nangong Tong waved his hand, feeling that he had almost no energy to speak. He just cleaned up some small gangs, and all the preparations were all ready. He was waiting for the good things that would be good at launching the reputation of the Zhengdao League, but it was not going well all the way, and he spent a lot of time more than expected. How could it be reasonable for Si'er's cousin? The brothers and uncles in the family would inevitably underestimate him. More importantly, this was completely contrary to his original intention along the way.

"There is no way. It is because this Yangming City is too small that it is rare to find someone who is as knowledgeable, sensible and flexible as Zhang Shenhe, and can see the situation clearly. If you really find someone who is not smart, it is troublesome to rely on one breath. Although this Yangming City is small, the two iron ore outside the city can also produce a lot of output. All gangs of all sizes are fighting for oil and water in each link. When Zhang Shenhe came, he expressed his willingness to offer a total of 50% of the total income, which means he is a person with vision and knowledge. One of the two mines is an industry assigned by the Songshan Sect, and the other is involved in the other courtyard of Longhushan. If it were not a clever and wise person, it would be impossible to make up the relationship... Also, Senior Brother Zeng of Kongtong Sect was quite angry. I think Zhang Shenhe was still a secretly set up by Kongtong Sect. We didn't notice it in advance..."

The heroes of the world who do not eat or drink and use their swords to eliminate demons and protect the way are imagined by the nerds sitting in the study. Every force and every gang represent a group of interests that can support people. And the mutual game and involvement between these countless large and small interests is more complicated than ten times or a hundred times. The open and secret struggles between various gangs and factions means that these forces and interests have not yet reached a balance and smooth level.

The Central Plains River and Lake 75 years ago were in a smooth and harmonious scene. After decades of the founding of Dagan, all the ownership of interests has their own principles. Which waterway, which mine is which gang, and which gang belongs to which larger sect family is behind. Although there is not no fighting, the dispute was resolved through negotiation before it expanded. However, after the war that spread across the Central Plains, the vitality of the major sects was greatly damaged, and some even died. The rest could only firmly hold on to their own family to recover their vitality. The scattered branches and leaves were no longer in power to maintain, which led to many gangs and fighting.

The Zhengdao Alliance, which has been established now, is precisely in response to the current situation. It can re-balance the various small gangs and sects in the Central Plains, and redistribute them clearly, and of course there will be fewer battles. However, how to straighten out and how to distribute them is another more profound problem. Clarifying the order of the rivers and lakes and promoting the righteous path of the rivers and lakes, of course, it cannot be order for the order, or for the righteous path. The joining of famous sects and young children from these sects and families gathered together, not because of the fun.

Of course, Nangong Tong knew all these clearly, but he was really not interested in how to operate the specific details. Anyway, the result was already discussed and arranged, so I could just leave it to the people below to do it. One or two small places like Yangming City, even the total income of all gangs may not be as expensive as his expenses, let alone the dividends on all parties. He could not find a slight reason to work hard.

So now listening to Li Shishi's words, Nangong Tong just frowned and waved his hand, signaling Li Shishi not to say anything.

Seeing that Nangong Tong was not patient, Li Shishi stopped talking. After standing and thinking for a while, he suddenly spoke, "...Brother Nangong Shi, what happened to the Mingyue Fairy..."

"Mingyue? What's wrong with Miss Mingyue?" Nangong Tong was stunned. Although he slapped Zhang Shenhe to death in front of the county magistrate, he didn't have to say anything in this way. Mingyue's name, who was born in the Pure Land Zen Temple, could easily expose this matter. Today, the royal family relied heavily on the Pure Land Zen Temple. The Empress Dowager and the Queen went to the Zen Temple to live in the Zen Temple on the 15th day of the month to pray for Buddha's blessings. The fairy from the Zen Temple randomly patted the leader of a vicious Jianghu gang, and there was no need for others to remind him that the county magistrate would give Zhang Shenhe a charge of disturbing the county government and trying to hold the imperial court officials hostage.

"... Brother Nangong Shi also knows it. As we go along the way, many twists and turns are caused by Miss Mingyue..." When it comes to this, Li Shishi couldn't help but feel a little depressed and angry. Their twists and turns along the way are basically the same as today. This time, he slapped the leader of the Qinghe Gang to death and was not the most troublesome thing. Last time, he almost beaten the two Kunzhong of the Hengshan Sect to become disabled. A few words made Miss Miaoyin in Hengshan so that he covered his face and cried... Their group was originally thirteen, and five of them had left because of Miss Mingyue.

Speaking of this, Nangong Tong couldn't help but sigh and subconsciously stroked his forehead: "Miss Mingyue diligently practices Buddhism, and her heart is like a mirror. She cannot tolerate any filth in her eyes. When facing these worldly affairs in the world, she is indeed a little out of place..."

"Then...why would you better find a reason and ask her to avoid it for a while. Otherwise, I don't know how much trouble there will be in the future."

Nangong Tong thought about it, shook his head and said slowly: "Pure Land Zen Temple has never intervened in the struggles in the martial arts world. This time, I sent Miss Mingyue to join our righteous alliance. This time, it is a rare statement. How can we avoid it because of a little twists and turns?"

"...It turns out that Miss Mingyue came to join the Zhengdao League by the intention of the Zen Temple?" Li Shishi was slightly surprised when he heard this.

Nangong Tong frowned, hesitated for a moment, and said with a slightly unpredictable and profound smile: "The relationship here is quite complicated, and the involvement is deep and extensive, and I just know a rough idea. As soon as I say this, Brother Li Shi, don't ask again..."

"Oh..." Li Shishi nodded as if he had realized it. The Nangong family and the Shadow Guard were deeply involved. Of course, he knew some secrets that others were not very clear about. If it was involved in the Royal Family and the Zen Temple, of course he would rather ask less questions. He frowned and hesitated for a while, showing a look that he didn't know whether he should say it, but in the end he said: "It is reported that Miss Mingyue lives in the same room with Taoist Qingfeng of the Maoshan School every night. She is a young man and widow. Brother Nangong Shi, do you think there will be this..."

Nangong Tong's expression stiffened slightly, but it immediately returned to normal, without any surprises or surprises. He smiled faintly and said, "I will never do it. Miss Mingyue is superb in Buddhism and has noble virtues. Moreover, I heard from Si'er's cousin that Master Qingfeng had also been praised by the head of Maoshan He Jinzhi, and his mind was clear and incredible. They both of them had experienced life and death and were commonplace. As monks, they themselves did not care about the eyes of others. They were honest and thoughtful, so why should we be more attentive?"

"It's still Brother Nangong Shi who is broad-minded and has a brilliant vision." Li Shishi bowed and showed admiration. "If Brother Nangong Shi who is in charge of the overall situation, I'm not too worried anymore. I'll discuss the new candidates with those gang leaders now."

"That's a blessing, Brother Li Shi." Nangong Tong didn't stand up, just sat upright and bowed.

Listening to Li Shishi's footsteps leaving, Nangong Tong curled his lips slightly. Speaking of these complicated and vulgar things, the Li family seemed to be a master, and they just handed them all over. The Li family is a serious family of Confucian officials, but Li Shishi went to the Fortumen to go to the world. It can be seen that most of them are not very proud of their background. It is because of their poverty and humbleness that they can often be despicable.

As for the questions he mentioned, it is nonsense to Nangong Tong. If Miss Mingyue is asked to avoid it for a while, then why did he take these children from the aristocratic families of the Justice League to show off his might?

It’s not that Nangong Tong has never seen beautiful women. In fact, there are definitely more beautiful women he has ever seen than 9999 men in the world. He has never seen beautiful women who disdain him. They are just those who are either pretending to play hard to get, and finally they have to roll on the bed with him to reveal their true colors, or they are self-righteous and arrogant. Only young heroes who are born in poverty and humble, are full of integrity and unlimited potential are worthy of their best quality, which in turn makes him lose all his appetite.

As for the Mingyue girl, he didn't even know how to classify it. At the beginning, he was just curious, but as he got in touch with her, the more he became trapped in it, and could not extricate himself. The kind of lively and agile that came purely from the heart without any decoration, like a scheming child, seemed to have no desires and a deeper level of refinement. Combined with the beautiful appearance, Nangong Tong gradually felt that there was something in his heart that he had never found before inspiring.

Nangong Tong did not deliberately show his pursuit of flattery. The pride of the Nangong family man did not allow him to do this or even think like this. Moreover, when he reaches his level, his aristocratic children will understand without any guidance that women do not need to chase them. Once he lowers his posture, he may not be really yours. He just needs to show his best, strongest and most beautiful side, which will naturally attract the woman to his side. If he can't, then you are not good enough, not strong enough, not beautiful enough. That's why he received the task of recapturing the small gang in Jingzhou from He Sier, but he originally thought that it was a journey of majestic display of the style of the aristocratic children, but because of this Mingyue girl, he became extremely headache.

Moreover, Miss Mingyue and Taoist Master Qingfeng were too intimate. Will Nangong Tong be worried about anything that Li Shishi was worried about? He could tell whether a woman was virgin at first sight since he was fifteen. He just didn't understand why he ignored everyone and turned a blind eye, but was so intimate with Taoist Master Qingfeng?

Is there any key point that I have overlooked? Do I need some special methods? Do I need to think from a different angle? Nangong Tong rubbed his forehead that was already in pain.

"Master Xia, I really don't want to be with those people anymore. Those people are not good people. Nangong Tong took them to talk about the righteous way of the world. Although I don't know what that is, I know they are all lying."

Mingyue sat on the eaves of the high Taoist temple. A white robe seemed to be coated with a layer of golden light in the setting sun, making her look like a spiritual and beautiful sculpture. The pair of uncensored jade-like small feet were still hanging, which inexplicably reminded Xiaoxia of the first time she saw her. However, at that time she was still a monster surrounded and killed by heroes in the world, but now she is a famous fairy of righteousness.

No matter what thoughts he had in his heart, Xiaoxia had to admit that looking at the Mingyue girl was really a relaxing thing. Xiaoxia withdrew her gaze and, with this kind of leisurely mood, drew a cloud pattern on the talisman paper in one go. With the guidance of his spiritual thoughts and breath, the erect living energy mixed with several other five elements energy that had already existed on the talisman paper, and then burst out a faint light and then quietly settled on the talisman paper according to the structure of the cloud pattern.

"There are not many good people who can survive in the world. Of course, the disciples of the aristocratic sects who were sent to supervise the division of power have more thoughts and ghost names in secret." Xiao Xia answered casually, while taking this newly drawn divine talisman into his pocket. Now it was almost effortless for him to draw this kind of middle-third-grade talisman. This was something he could not even imagine a few months ago. The advice he received in He Jinzhi's hands made him feel a little fluttered for a while.

This is the Taoist temple outside Yangming City, and it is a branch under Longhu Mountain. It belongs to the Zhengyi Sect. He naturally can live here as a disciple of Maoshan. Now, with the power of the Zhengdao Alliance, the host of the Guanzhong Temple specially divided a small courtyard for him, which was considered a gesture of treating distinguished guests. Even Miss Mingyue lived here without saying a word. These are the treatments he never dared to ask for when selling talismans everywhere. I have to admit that holding a thigh is indeed a very convenient thing for walking in the world.

"Then let's go. Don't pay attention to these people, let's continue to go to Yunzhou." Mingyue jumped off the roof.

Xiao Xia smiled bitterly, how could he leave at this time? He had no worries at that time, but now he was in love with a lot of favors. He shook his head and said, "Not now, at least he must get rid of that snake Taoist."

"Nonsense, Taoist Xia, you are even lying to others." Mingyue came over to her, staring at Xiaoxia with big eyes, and her dark eyes were so clear that Xiaoxia was afraid to look at each other. "You are not afraid to leave because you are afraid of that bad person."

"Eros..." Xiao Xia was speechless. This was true. The Snake Taoist, who became a rat crossing the street, has disappeared and seems to be no longer worried. Now he cares about only He Jinzhi, a big favor. He Sier is a big favor that cannot be explained by the big or small favor, so he also needs to help with the righteous alliance.

Mingyue reached out and grabbed Xiaoxia's hand. The little hand that had just slapped a person's head into his chest in the morning was as tender as cotton and as smooth as grease. Mingyue's expression was a bit rare and solemn, and she seemed to sigh softly: "Master Xia, let's go. If you stay with those people for a long time, you will gradually become bad."

Xiao Xia turned her head and thought for a while, shook her head and said, "...Don't worry, I won't."

Mingyue threw Xiaoxia's hand away with some anger, turned around and jumped on the eaves to sit down, turned around and looked at the sunset in the distance and ignored him.

Xiao Xia sighed slightly. He also knew that Mingyue was very unhappy with him in this righteous alliance these days. He had been familiar with the intrigues and various insidious means of the above and the scenes. He only thought it was to accompany her to act and watch the show, but Mingyue also wanted to join her. Even if she just let her watch the sidelines, it would be a very uncomfortable thing for her. But now he really couldn't just walk away, and he hugged others' thick legs to facilitate others. Then he could only follow other people's pace. This is the person in the world. He couldn't help himself.

This is why He Jinzhi said he envyed an unrestrained wild Taoist priest. Xiao Xia suddenly understood. Looking at the angry Mingyue on the eaves, Xiao Xia was also a little excited. He originally planned to continue drawing a few talismans but was no longer in the mood.

At this time, a sound of footsteps came from far to near. Not long after, two men appeared at the gate of the courtyard. One was a middle-aged man with a big face, and the other was a short and fat man who was wrapped in gauze wound belts but still had to walk. Xiao Xia remembered that they were the two leaders of the Wanhu Gang.

Seeing Xiao Xia and Mingyue in the courtyard, the big-faced man in the head immediately bowed and bowed with his fists: "Song Wanhu, the leader of the Wanhu Gang, Luo Yuanquan, has seen Taoist Qingfeng and Fairy Mingyue."

"You're welcome. Gang Song and Gang Luo, who are you going to find us?" He was not too surprised that these two people found here. It's not a secret that they were here. Two small gang leaders have come to find them before, trying to get some close relationships. "We are not a director in the Zhengdao Alliance. If we are for the sake of business in the Zhengdao Alliance, we should go to the city to find other people."

The big-faced man named Song Wanhu bowed deeply at Mingyue again, with a look of gratitude: "We both came just to thank Fairy Mingyue for taking action today. That Zhang Shenhe is an insidious villain who uses any means. If he has the right alliance as a supporter, I really don't know how many people will be killed! Thanks to Fairy Mingyue's wise eyes, he killed the traitor, so that my Song family can be avoided from being harmed. Song really doesn't know how to be grateful!"

Mingyue just glanced at it and turned her head, obviously not interested in the gratitude leader Song.

Xiao Xia could also see that the gratitude on Song Wanhu's face was not a fake. He walked over and smiled and said the scene first: "Our righteous alliance should have been to eliminate traitors and punish evil, but this is just a matter of duty. The day before yesterday, we also saw that Zhang Shenhe was indeed a villain who could do anything. Brother Nangong Shi and others were just deceived by some tricks. I hope that the Song Gang Master will be in the future and will give some strength to my Central Plains."

"Yes, yes, yes. Song has always regarded himself as the righteous path of the world, and his gang's livelihood is open and upright. Even if he occasionally takes action, he will try his best to kill those who are full of evil. In the future, he will encourage himself every day and not be slackened. If he really has the opportunity to promote the righteous path for the Central Plains, he will be ruined."

Song Wanhu was filled with righteous indignation and righteousness. Then he took a few steps, took out a stack of silver notes from his waist and handed them to Xiaoxia with his hands: "Master Qingfeng and Fairy Mingyue saved my family. They should have been a reward for being a cow and a horse. However, both of them came from famous families and had countless times higher cultivation than Song. The great things they did were beyond Song's ability. Song, a common man, could only repay these common things, and hoped to add more convenience to Master Qingfeng and Fairy Mingyue's travel in the world."

Xiao Xia smiled. It seemed that the seemingly lusty leader Song was also a scheming person. He said he was thanking Mingyue, but he gave the money to him. Obviously, he had no idea where he had found out that his relationship was very shallow. At a glance, there were probably hundreds of taels. If it was placed in the past, it would naturally be disrespectful. But now, the talisman materials can be used at the Taoist temples under Maoshan everywhere, and there is no shortage of silver and money. If it is to let the others in the Zhengdao League know that it is not good to look good. Moreover, after hearing the words of the Song leader, he seemed to be interested in the supervisory position of the Zhengdao League. He did not stretch out his hand, but just shook his head and said, "Miss Mingyue is just doing it. Why should the Song leader be too polite? These silver are also earned by the brothers of the precious gang. We must not accept it, otherwise we will become the thugs who collect money for others."

"Yes, yes, Song is abrupt! It's Song's vision, too vulgar! It's too vulgar! It actually regards Fairy Mingyue and Master Qingfeng as our city-profit villains." Song Wanhu hurriedly took the silver note back, and seemed to want to slap himself a few times. "But Fairy Mingyue and Master Qingfeng are running for the right path of the Central Plains. How can none of the men do those little things? My third brother admires two such people the most in his life. He wants me to accompany him here, hoping that both of them can agree to him follow him..."

Before he finished speaking, the fat man, who was tied with gauze and like a rice dumpling, knelt down at the bright moon on the eaves of the house in the distance. His big round eyes were filled with light of half dementia and half excitement, as if he was crying and howling: "The villain Luo Yuanyun, I wish to follow the fairy all his life. The fairy has sent a mission, even if he goes through fire and water, he will be crushed to pieces, die and die, and will never be able to recover!"

This sound made Xiao Xia's eyes wide open and his mouth wide open for a long time could not get together. He had long been impressed by this strange-looking fat man who had seen him in the county government office. He seemed to be so half-in-the-silly at that time. When he came today, he still stood there stupidly without moving, like a clay sculpture, so he didn't care. He never thought that he would suddenly howl such earth-shaking words.

And it is said that the kind of heroes who can accept their heads and bow their heads at first sight and willingly be cows and horses are all heroes who are arrogant and domineering, and have endless kings and dominances in ancient and modern times, how could Miss Mingyue have such a momentum?

Even Song Wanhu next to Luo Yuanyun opened his mouth wide and looked at him in surprise. Although he knew the meaning of the Third Head of the House before, he had persuaded him for a while, but he didn't expect that he would push the golden mountain and the jade pillar to the ground to be vigorously.

Mingyue, who was still sulking on the eaves, finally turned around and looked at the strange fat man who was kneeling on the ground and cried. She flashed. She had already stood in front of Luo Yuanyun, with her back facing the sun, and a smile that was more dazzling than the sunset appeared on her face, as if she was looking at a somewhat strange, cute, and funny animal: "What did this person say? It's stupid."

Luo Yuanyun, who was kneeling, was so excited that his whole body was trembling. His big round eyes exposed outside the gauze were already rolling and tears were rolling down. It seemed that just for this sentence and a smile, he was really willing to go through fire and water to pieces.

###

Three days later, amid the controversy, Nangong Tongshaoxia, the leader of the Zhengdao League, finally finalized the supervision position in Yangming City. It was not anyone who was strongly recommended by everyone in the alliance, but Song Wanhu, the leader of the Wanhu Gang who was not familiar with anyone.

Of course, everyone complained about this decision. Although choosing a person that does not belong to any company is a means to balance all parties, it does not belong to any company, that is, no company can get benefits. The leader of the Song Wanhu Gang does not seem to be a candidate who can fully understand the significance of this position. However, Nangong Tong then waved his pen and expressed that he would give the benefits that originally belonged to the Nangong family to several other companies, so he quickly calmed down his dissatisfaction, and everyone quickly packed up their luggage and started to rush to the next place.

In addition, there is a small episode. Luo Yuanquan, the third leader of the Wanhu Gang, was also hanging far behind the team and following along the way. He heard that he volunteered to be Changsui, the girl Mingyue, but the girl Mingyue did not agree, but seemed to refuse. The fairy Mingyue had many troubles around him, and the people in the alliance didn't want to meddle in other people's business, so he let the Changsui voluntarily follow him.
Chapter completed!
