Shen Huai was startled in the center, looked up, and sure enough, he saw that the people coming and going were carrying lanterns with the logo of Hongyang Road in their hands.

His temples twitched, and the smiling elderly and children in front of him seemed to be wearing a smiling mask, revealing a strange air that penetrated into his heart.

"This evil heretic is indeed abominable," Shen Huaizhong put away the folding fan with a "snap", "I'm not afraid that this evil sect will do violence, but I'm afraid that this evil sect will confuse the people and use the people as human shields. What should we do then?"

Chai Jin didn't answer, just listened quietly, and then let out a long sigh helplessly.

The two didn't stay in the city for a long time, and soon found the base camp of the rebels along the direction of the hot air balloon.

This is a well-built and prosperous mansion in the city, and the people who live in it are all prominent figures in the rebel army. Before they approached, the two of them smelled a fresh aroma of tea leaves in the courtyard.

"There's a war going on outside, and these rebels still have the leisure to drink tea here." Shen Huaizhong scolded in a low voice.

"Be careful," Chai Jin hid behind the ridge of the roof, "this rebel commander rarely goes out, but there are many martial arts masters patrolling back and forth."

The two figures, one black and one white, were hiding in the green shadows, and when they were motionless, it was as if they were invisible.

The two climbed to the top of the tree, and they could easily see the scene in the courtyard.

I saw that the corridors in the courtyard were complex and the layout was patchwork. There were corridors on all sides to facilitate the communication between the courtyards. Among them, one of the patrolling leaders was wearing a long-sleeved robe with a hunchback, and the other was a hunchback with broad shoulders.

"Look at that," Chai Jin kicked Shen in the arms, pointing to the one with a somewhat hunched back, "that man has a wide robe and big sleeves, his hands are invisible, he didn't notice the hidden weapon, and he felt dead. He should be an expert in hidden weapons."

Shen Huaizhong played the folding fan subconsciously twice, "This person is dangerous, if we fight in the future, leave him to me."

Chai Jin didn't answer, it was acquiesced, and he glanced at the entire courtyard, "These two are not the only ones patrolling here, their subordinates are also all martial arts masters, relying on your strength alone is not enough to resist."

Shen Huaizhong also took a look, and subconsciously tightened his hands holding the folding fan, "Did this group of rebels call all the martial arts masters in the entire Jianghu?"

After the two of them felt the situation was almost the same, they returned the same way, without revealing the slightest sign.

As soon as they arrived at the camp, the two of them reported all the abnormal conditions in the city to the Prince Regent before they even had time to catch their breath. Upon hearing this, the prince quickly gathered all the generals together to discuss the matter overnight.

Everyone heard that the people in the city were rejoicing, and immediately realized that there was a big problem.

"This cult is really powerful," Ke Ran said solemnly, "It can confuse so many people at the same time. If there is a war, what will the people do against these rebels?"

The regent clenched his hands into fists, "As long as the people are safe and sound, there will be a turn for the better. Is it true that the tragedy that the state government saw a few days ago must be true?"

The rest of the people fell silent and shut their mouths.

"The common people trust the cult now, will the cult do anything to them for a while?" Shen Huaizhong opened the folding fan in his hand and shook it slowly twice, his appearance still leisurely. Only by fighting against the rebels in the future can we have a chance of winning."

"This method is feasible," the regent nodded, but he was not as urgent as before. "But since these people are all well-known masters in the Jianghu, ordinary soldiers must not be able to do anything to them. If they do it rashly, they will definitely startle the snake."

As soon as these words came out, everyone shut up in unison, and the camp fell into a dead silence again.

After a while, it was Chai Jin who broke the silence, "The affairs in the Jianghu still need to be resolved by people in the Jianghu. I will write a book and send it to Master to see if he is willing to contact some martial arts masters to help us."

Xue Lince and the others still remembered Yu Chengze's temper. They looked at each other and exchanged a look of fear.

The regent didn't care about the many things, and when he heard the words, he suddenly felt a little excited, "Then there will be Mr. Lao."

Chai Jin didn't say much, he did what he said, after he asked for the Four Treasures of the Study, he turned around and went back to the camp to write a letter to Yu Chengze, and the short meeting of everyone quickly ended.

At the same time, panic began to spread in the capital, especially when the news of the cult's practice of praying for rain was reported back to the court, and the court was full of uproar, adding another layer of panic to the atmosphere.

Probably because he noticed something strange in the capital, the sky was cloudy and rainy for days, and the cold wind was blowing, making people's faces ache.

This day, Liu Xiang had just returned from court, and before he entered the house, he saw Liu Zishao running over in a panic.

He hunched over and clasped his hands, as if he was carrying an invisible heavy burden on his shoulders. His face, which was always flushed in the past, now turned into a black and purple red. There was a row of big men on his forehead, as if he was holding his breath.

"grandfather!"

Seeing Liu Xiang coming back, he was immediately pardoned, his bluish-black face recovered a bit of blood, he quickly stepped forward to meet him, and then chased after Liu Xiang like a follower.

"Grandpa, have you heard about the things in the south? The Hongyang Taoist actually showed his face among the rebels and begged for rain on the battlefield. Don't we have a relative who is also from the Hongyang Tao? If he is exposed, the emperor will not Will let us go!"

He was chasing after Liu Xiang, chattering. Liu Xiang, who had been arguing for a long time in the court hall, was at the time when his mouth was dry and his heart was depressed. Turning around, he waved his hand, and with a "slap", a clear and loud slap hit Liu Zishao's face, slapping all the words behind him in his mouth.

Liu Zishao was taken aback by the beating, covering his swollen face, he looked at Liu Xiang in disbelief, his eyes bulging like a frog, "Grandpa, why did you hit me?"

"Shut up!" Liu Xiang became annoyed when he saw his cowardly and fearful appearance, "It's not enough to succeed, but it's more than failure, why did you become such a waste in the Liu family!"

Liu Zishao was still puzzled, "Grandpa..."

"go out!"

Liu Xiang yelled angrily, the veins on his forehead popped up, and the vicissitudes of his cheeks were also covered with beads of sweat. Liu Zishao couldn't understand it, but he could only run away in despair, covering his face.

He ran so fast that he almost stumbled when he crossed the threshold. Liu Xiang became more and more angry when he saw that someone handed him a teacup. As soon as he took it, he vented his anger on the cup. Then it fell to the ground with a "bang" and cracked in response, countless pieces of porcelain splashed, and a water stain quickly spread on the ground.

"Trash! It's all trash!"

If it weren't for his advanced age, Liu Xiang would have been beating his chest and feet with anger.
