A knife in love

Chapter 1014

When Li Qiufeng saw that Master Shi refused to go to the backyard to meet the leaders of the four families of Nie, Lu, Zhao, and Du, he was obviously on guard.And Liang Huan was in the hall, if the two parties went to discuss in the hall, they would definitely fight in the hall.Liang Huan had no power to restrain the chicken, if he died at the hands of the Japanese pirates, let alone Ji Dingzhong and others, according to the Ming Dynasty, Han Qusi, Huang Chong and other court officials would not be able to escape the death penalty.It is expected that Ji Dingzhong will find a way to refuse Shidaozhu's invitation, and at worst he will invite Liang Huan out of the hall first, and then enter the hall with Shidaozhu and others to deal with.

Sure enough, Master Shi's voice fell, and Ji Ding said in the middle: "Although this Town God's Temple is not small, it is just a small temple in a remote place. It is neither worth seeing nor effective. Since Master Shi From the southeast, I heard that the Mazu Temple there is very effective. If Master Shi wants to use divine power to plot great things, he might as well burn a few more sticks of incense in the Mazu Temple, why bother going there?"

Island Master Shi smiled and said: "Mr. Nie, you don't understand the customs of our Fusang people. Fusang people will burn incense when they meet a temple, whether it is a Buddhist temple or a Taoist temple, even if it is an earth temple in a small village. , You must also go to worship. In the words of you Chinese people in China, even if there are many people, it is not surprising, maybe the gods in some temple will appear and help us. Haha, haha."

Li Qiufeng's heart trembled, thinking that this person surnamed Shi was indeed from Fusang.It's just that this person speaks Chinese very fluently, and even many people in Li can speak such common sayings. It seems that like Liu Sheng Zongyan and others, he must have been lurking in Daming for many years.Ji Dingzhong is going to have a lot of headaches this time, and he doesn't know how he will deal with it.

At this moment, someone suddenly said: "Since Master Shi wants to enter the hall to rejoice, it is a good thing. Mr. Nie might as well invite the patriarchs of Nie, Lu, Zhao, and Du to the hall. Conspiring together in front of the statue of the Goddess of the City God. If it comes to fruition in the future, it will be a good talk. If Mr. Nie refuses blindly, it will make Master Shi unhappy. I'm afraid things will be unpredictable in the future, and it will not be a good thing for both of us .”

Li Qiufeng felt a little strange when he heard Mr. Bai suddenly interjected. He thought to himself, Mr. Bai knew that Liang Huan was in the hall, if he was injured by Japanese pirates, his head would have to be moved, why did he make such a bad move?Just thinking about it, maybe Master Bai was afraid that Island Master Shi would see his flaws, so he turned around and fled at this moment, and everyone might not be able to stop him.If this person brought a dozen of his subordinates into the main hall, and then tried to escape from the temple gate, it would be more difficult than ascending to heaven.As long as everyone enters the hall with Master Shi, with so many people guarding around Liang Huan's sedan chair, it would be extremely difficult for the pirates to hurt him.This master Bai made a quick decision, and his mind was well-behaved. In terms of scheming, I am afraid that he is not inferior to Ji Dingzhong and Mrs. Nie.

Just as Master Bai finished speaking, he heard Ji Dingzhong say, "I'm afraid it would be inappropriate to discuss such an important matter in the hall. What's more, there are so many pilgrims who enter the hall every day to burn incense and worship gods. We haven't had time to clean up the matter. It's extremely filthy. If you invite Lord Shi Dao to discuss matters in the main hall, wouldn't you be treating the distinguished guest poorly?"

Master Bai smiled and said: "What's the problem? Let people clean it up immediately, and then invite Shi Island Master and the patriarchs of each family to enter the palace to discuss matters. Isn't everything ready?"

Li Qiufeng has a sharp heart, knowing that it is a lie that Master Bai sent someone to clean up the hall, and it is true to find an opportunity to evacuate Liang Huan and others from the hall.This man is calm in times of danger and full of wisdom. He is indeed a remarkable person.

Thinking of this, he secretly glanced at the situation in the hall.The main hall is square and upright, with only one exit at the hall gate, without a back door or a side door.Carrying Liang Huan out of the hall without anyone noticing it would be tantamount to nonsense.

Just listen to Ji Dingzhong said: "In this case, please wait for a while, Master Shi. Please trouble Mr. Bai to find someone to clean the hall, and Nie will go to the backyard to invite the patriarchs."

Li Qiufeng heard a few polite words from several people, and then several people came to the main hall.After these people entered the main hall, the leader of the Chasi Yamen went up to meet them and whispered a few words to those people.Although Li Qiufeng listened attentively, the voices of these people were so low that he couldn't hear what they were saying.The leader nodded and waved his right hand at the bearer.The eight bearers immediately stepped forward, lifted the sedan chair, moved it behind the statue of the City God Empress, and then placed it firmly on the ground.Ten arresters stood on both sides of the sedan chair, each with their chests and stomachs folded, looking very majestic.

Then the leader waved to the people in casual clothes. These people immediately divided into two teams, and they went around the back of the City God Empress respectively, and stood close to the back wall of the hall.Li Qiufeng followed the people on the left side around the statue and stood behind them.Seeing that these people were advancing and retreating in an orderly manner without any confusion, he had obviously practiced many times, and he thought to himself, according to the Chasi Yamen, these arresters are really fast, and they are so meticulous in doing things, but they are not under Jin Yiwei.Look at these people's steps are light when they move, and their martial arts are obviously not weak.Liang Huan, a bastard, is really lucky to have so many masters working for him.

In the blink of an eye, calm was restored in the hall.The few people sent by Master Bai stood in front of the altar. Seeing that the arresters quickly retreated behind the statue, they turned around and left the hall.After a while, only the sound of footsteps in the courtyard was heard, followed by an old voice saying: "Island Master Shi is here, but I am too old to welcome you, please don't be offended by Island Master Shi."

Li Qiufeng recognized that it was Mrs. Nie's voice, and thought to himself, this old fox must be very annoyed for not being able to lure Master Shi to the backyard.But this old guy has always been calm, and he can be considered calm when he hears the voice.

Master Shidao smiled and said, "Where is it, I can be regarded as an uninvited guest. I originally told Mr. Nie to go to the city tomorrow, but the journey was very smooth, and it was a day earlier, which caught Mr. Nie by surprise. If you want to apologize, It should be us Fusang people who apologize to Mr. Nie."

I only listened to a few hypocritical and polite words from both parties.Ji Dingzhong introduced the patriarchs of the Nie, Lu, Zhao, and Du families to Shidaozhu.The head of the Nie family is naturally Mrs. Nie, but when introducing the head of the Lu family, Ji Dingzhong only said that the head of the family, Mr. Lu, was seriously ill and could not go to Xiuwu County in person, but in order to show that he took this matter seriously, he specially sent his two most proud sons Come.

Li Qiufeng thought to himself, Ji Dingzhong was deliberately covering up for Mrs. Lu.The Lu family was afraid that the Nie family would kill them, so no one in charge of the family showed up, but only sent two insignificant sons to show that they were extremely wary of the Nie family.

After Ji Dingzhong introduced the Lu family, he introduced the head of the Zhao family.Li Qiufeng heard the voice of the head of the Zhao family, and it was clearly the gray-clothed old man he had seen in the backyard.In the end, Ji Dingzhong mentioned the Du family again, and he only heard him say to Island Master Shi: "This is the head of the Du family, and also the parent officer of our Xiuwu County. Island Master Shi, Huangzhi County, you need to get closer."

Master Shi laughed and said, "No wonder Mr. Nie chose Xiuwu County as the place for our meeting. It turns out that this place is also the site of Fengmen Village. Huangzhi County, please take care of us in the future."

Shidao Master's voice fell, only to hear Huang Chong say: "It's easy to say, easy to say."

Ji Dingzhong said: "This is the owner of Shidao, the master of Jinshan Island overseas. A few months ago, when we wiped out the Xu family in Haizhou, we borrowed a lot from Jinshan Island. At that time, the younger generation contacted the owner of Shidao, The patriarchs have not met Master Shidao. Today, Master Shi traveled thousands of miles to Xiuwu County in person, which is a great honor for the four families of Fengmen Village. In the future, we will become horns with Jinshan Island, and things will be easier. "

Everyone greeted each other for a while.I only heard Mr. Bai say: "There are too many people here, I have sent someone to clean the main hall, everyone, please go to the hall to discuss matters."

Li Qiufeng was taken aback when he heard what Master Bai said, and thought to himself, shouldn't Ji Dingzhong say this?Why did Mr. Bai become the master of the four families in Fengmen Village instead of the guest?

Island Master Shi laughed, and said: "Okay, okay, let's go to the main hall to discuss it carefully. Please."

Everyone gave way to each other, and finally walked towards the hall together.Standing in the hall, Li Qiufeng could clearly see the situation outside the hall.I saw Shidao Master walking in the middle, Master Bai and Ji Dingzhong were by his side, Mrs. Nie, the seventh son of the Lu family, and the head of the Zhao family followed behind.Huang Chong had already taken off his official uniform, and now he was wearing a purple robe, walking side by side with the head of the Zhao family.Li Qiufeng saw that Han Qusi had also changed into a gray robe, and followed behind the seventh son of the Lu family. He thought to himself that Han Qusi is an important person in the Lu family, but he doesn't know who he is from the old lady Lu.
