A certain person is the Heavenly Killer Li Gui.

Chapter 194 Faith (300 monthly tickets for additional updates)
Not to mention the great uproar caused in the world after the news of the destruction of the Confucius family spread out, let’s just talk about Li Gui.

After taking over the Confucius Mansion, he moved into the Confucius Mansion, occupied this garden, and regarded it as a branch of Liangshan.

If all the Liangshan brothers have something to ask him, they can just ask them to come here. He must be here.

He also asked Wang Jin and others to move directly from Liangshan, but Wang Jin refused.

Nowadays, the mainstream communication method in Liangshan is carrier pigeons, and when the carrier pigeons were being cultivated, their nests were built in Liangshan. In other words, the carrier pigeons taken away by the generals would only fly back to Liangshan.

If the Liangshan headquarters is moved to the Kong Mansion, it means that all the homing pigeons must be retrained. It is really not worthwhile and unnecessary.

The generals in Liangshan already knew that the general leading the troops at Yingtian Mansion in Nanjing was Taiwei Gao Qiu. Wang Jin had a mortal feud with Gao Qiu and wanted to capture Gao Qiu and kill him right away.

The war between Lin Chong and Gao Qiu was about to break out. In this case, Wang Jin did not want to take any risks.

On the front line, Xu Ning had gone south from Puzhou to Xingren Mansion and met up with Lin Chong, Lu Zhishen and others.

Fan Rui also withdrew from Xuzhou to Shanzhou and pressed his army towards Yingtian Mansion.

Ma Ling relied on his quick legs to report to the frontline army early.

The enemy and we are facing each other from afar on the front line of Yingtian Mansion, and the war is about to break out.

Just like the bandits and grass bandits eat, drink and enjoy themselves after taking over a territory, Li Gui is also eating, drinking and having fun here every day.

The only difference between him and the rebels in the past is that he ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, opened a large harem, and granted ministers titles.

This made many brothers in Liangshan very worried. If the battle with Gao Qiu was not imminent, the ill-tempered Luda would have wanted to come back from the front line, point at brother Li Gui's nose and scold him to wake him up.

Li Gui didn't care about this, he just went his own way every day, eating, drinking and having fun, while studying the effects of his newly acquired golden luck.

However, this ray of luck has completely different functions from the luck of other colors. Li Gui studied it for a long time and failed to understand it, so he simply threw it aside and ignored it for the time being.

On this day, Li Gui was full of wine and food, lying on the couch and sleeping soundly. In the hazy moment, there seemed to be a faint sound of crying in his ears.

"...Zhenjun...little old man...help the suffering..."

Li Gui turned over and covered his ears. Unexpectedly, the voice was still echoing in his head.

Li Gui was furious, turned over and sat up, and shouted:

"Who's crying outside?"

The guard outside the door poked his head in and said strangely:
"Brother, is he having a nightmare?"

"This garden is very clean. Where is the crying?"

Li Gui knew that his eyes and ears were clearer than ordinary people, but he thought the distance was too far, so he stopped talking and listened again.

He listened carefully, and no sound, big or small, in the Kong family could be hidden from his ears.

As long as he wanted to listen, he could hear everything from slaves quarreling to snakes, insects, rats and ants crawling, but there was clearly no crying inside.

He touched his head, waved his hand to signal the guards to retreat, turned over and lay down to sleep again.

But who knew that in the haziness, he heard the cry again.

"Your Excellency, the True Exorcist...my miserable daughter..."

Li Gui looked carefully and found that the sound was not heard with his ears, but came from the ray of golden luck.

This made Li Gui very interested. He lay on the couch and focused on the golden luck in his body.Vaguely, he seemed to be able to feel that the sound came from somewhere far away, and it should be someone praying to him devoutly.

That thing that I don't know whether to call faith or incense was received by the golden luck.

Li Gui carefully sensed the direction, rolled over and climbed up from the couch, casually grabbed a piece of clothing and put it on his body, then strode out quickly.

"Where are you going, brother?" The guards hurriedly followed.

Li Gui ignored him and just concentrated on the prayer inside his body.

When he arrived outside the courtyard, he got on his horse and rode away quickly in the direction from which the prayer came.

Unexpectedly, before leaving the city, the voice of prayer stopped.

"Ri Xie Niang!"

"This horse is too slow."

But at this moment, he didn't care much. He could only hope that the person praying was still alive and would continue to pray when he came back.

He identified that direction, kept moving forward, and disappeared in a flash, leaving the personal guards behind him far away.

The personal guards had no choice but to go back and report the news.

Li Gui rode hard and ran for half a day. He saw a towering mountain in the distance.

This mountain is so high that it reaches the clouds and has a myriad of phenomena. Even though Li Gui has never been here before, he knows that this is the famous Mount Tai.

Even after arriving here, he never received another prayer from the previous person. Li Gui couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, so he slowed down his horse and headed for Tai'an City at the foot of the mountain.

Although it is still early, the gates of Tai'an City have long been closed, and people are patrolling everywhere in the city.

The tragedy that happened in Qufu has been spread here, and all the gentry who once had illusions have completely recognized the reality.

Even the Confucius Mansion was destroyed and the land was divided. What qualifications did they, ordinary local tycoons, have to negotiate terms with the Liangshan bandits?

If in the past when Liangshan attacked the city, the enemy was only the officers and soldiers in the city, then after Li Gui's willful act and extermination of the Kong family, Liangshan has become the public enemy of all the gentry and powerful men.

If Liangshan attempts to attack the city in the future, he will definitely be resisted by all local forces.

And if the government and the gentry cooperate, ordinary soldiers and even common people will be mobilized and become resistance to Liangshan's progress.

If you are willing to spend a lot of money, you may not be able to use your soldiers' lives.

Although the Liangshan bandits have not come to fight for the time being because they are busy dividing the territory and winning over people's hearts, the local officials and gentry have already been prepared.

Li Gui originally wanted to rest here and patiently look for the person praying. Now that he saw the nervousness here, he changed his mind and wanted to go to the Jade Emperor Temple, Dai Temple and other places on Mount Tai. See if the statues in these places can burst out golden luck.

But not far after he had ridden his horse, the voice of prayer sounded again.

It's just that unlike the last time when I cried sadly, this time my prayers were weak. It was obvious that the person praying was not in a good condition.

Perhaps because the distance was getting closer, Li Gui clearly felt that the man praying was in Tai'an City, and the sounds he could hear became clearer and clearer.

"...Please, True Lord, save my daughter one more time, even if the little old man dies immediately, I am willing to..."
