Traveling through Tianlong: Starting from the Zhenlong chess game

Chapter 64 Gang Leader Qiao’s retreat is the way to advance

Bai Shijing saw the disciples of Dazhi Branch forming a human wall, protecting Quan Guanqing and Elder Xu inside. He immediately yelled angrily: "What?! Do you want to rebel?"

Elder Xi took a step forward and cursed angrily: "Huh! Don't they just want to seize power? Now their true colors have been revealed."

Elder Xi then waved his hand and shouted: "Disciples of the Beggar Clan, obey orders! Knot and dog formation!"

After saying that, the disciples of the Beggar Clan from Luoyang Chief Helmet immediately cooperated with the law enforcement disciples under Bai Shijing's command to surround him.

But now we are in Jiangnan, and the headquarters of Dazhi Branch is in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, which is on the territory of Quan Guanqing. The Beggar Clan went south this time. Although all the senior officials arrived, not many of the disciples came with them. Although the disciples of the chief helmsman who followed the elders quickly surrounded them, they were not as numerous as the local Dazhi helmsmen.

Elder Xu also said coldly at this time: "Dazhi Branch Disciple, obey the order! Knot and dog formation!"

Not long after, the two groups of Beggars Clan's chief helmsman and sub-helmmen immediately started to stand up. The situation on the field was very tense at the moment.

Although Master Zhiguang wanted to say something, he didn't know how to say it.

Zhao Mu also gently pulled out his sword. He snorted coldly and said, "If you can't defeat me, are you going to take action? Okay!" Zhao Mu looked at Bai Shijing and asked, "Elder Bai, the disciples of the Beggar Clan have gathered to rebel. What crime should be committed!"

Bai Shijing's face was ashen as he said, "Death penalty!"

Zhao Mu's internal energy has been condensed on the edge of his sword, and the iron sword in his hand emits harsh sword sounds.

Upon seeing this, Mrs. Ma quickly stepped aside.

Zhao Mu continued to ask: "Then if you help me out of kindness, does that count as nosy?"

Wu Changfeng came to Zhao Mu with the Ghost Head Sword, and said, "Of course it doesn't count! We are outnumbered now, and the gang leader was seriously injured to atone for our sins. As the gang leader's sworn brother, Mr. Zhao will help us put down the rebellion." .Of course it’s not nosy!”

The three elders, Song Xi and Chen, each took their weapons and stepped forward, standing together with Zhao Mu, preparing to take down these rebels together.

When everyone in the Murong family saw this, they were all stunned. They originally just wanted to stay and watch the excitement. But I didn’t expect that the excitement was a bit big. The Beggar Clan’s previous seizure of power suddenly turned into a “fiery merger” within the Beggar Clan. But they were all outsiders, so they had no intention of stopping him. But Bao BuTong and Feng BoE still protected A'Zhu, A Bi and Wang Yuyan behind them.

Qiao Feng saw that there was an internal fight among the Beggar Clan, and when he met the elders, they all agreed that Zhao Mu, who was highly skilled in martial arts, would help put down the rebellion. He couldn't help but sigh. After arranging his clothes, he shouted in his loud voice: "Okay! Stop it!"

Listening to Qiao Feng's dragon-like voice, everyone retreated and then looked at him together.

Qiao Feng closed his eyes and let out a long sigh before saying: "Since its establishment hundreds of years ago, the Beggar Gang has always put chivalry first and loyalty first. It has never happened that brothers in the gang have killed each other, but now in my tenure What happened is actually Qiao Feng’s fault.”

Elder Song heard this and said: "The gang leader is overly worried. It's just Old Man Xu and Quan Guanqing who want to seize your authority. Dazhi split the steering wheel and deceived us first, kidnapped us to teach martial arts, and the law enforcement elders came last. Now they are framing the gang leader again. You are a Khitan! You intend to rebel. Your subordinates are just suppressing the rebellion. How can you kill each other?"

After hearing Elder Song's words, Elder Xu immediately retorted: "Nonsense! I'm already an old man. Even if I really become a gang leader, how many days can I do it? I can't bear the destruction of the century-old foundation of the gang, and I can't bear that I'm a gang leader." The reputation of the gang has been tarnished by a beggar gang! You bastards don't know the difference between right and wrong, and you are willing to be Qiao Feng's lackeys. After you die, how can you have the face to meet the ancestors of my gang!"

Hearing both sides arguing, Qiao Feng let out a sigh of relief, and then said: "Okay! Today, Elder Xu accused me of being a Khitan, or framed me for killing Brother Ma. It was just for Qiao This dog-beating stick is in Feng’s hand.” Qiao Feng took the dog-beating stick and held it high in his hand.

Qiao Feng held up the dog-beating stick and continued: "In that case, today Qiao Feng will temporarily step down as the leader of the Beggar Clan!" Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

Bai Shijing said: "What are you doing, leader? Dazhi will take charge of the rebellion, and all the elders will unite to put down the rebellion. Why should the leader compromise with the traitor?"

Wu Changfeng also asked with a confused look on his face: "Yes, Gang Leader, Old Man Xu is confused. He was deceived by this boy Quan Guanqing. He is obsessed with his own thoughts. We are not confused. We all know what kind of person the Gang Leader is. Why is the gang leader doing this?"

Although everyone in the Beggar Clan was puzzled by Qiao Feng's behavior.

But Zhao Mu seemed to understand what his brother Qiao was thinking, and he put away his sword.

Zhao Mu was also moved by his eldest brother's loyalty. Others may not understand his heart, but Zhao Mu understands.

Qiao Feng's current move seems to be to retreat in order to advance, but in fact it is to avoid a bloody conflict within the beggar gang. If internal strife breaks out in the Beggar Clan over this matter, and if this spreads out, then the fact that Qiao Feng is a Khitan will be confirmed by people with ulterior motives.

They would say that in order to conceal his identity as a Khitan, Qiao Feng killed Elder Xu, the leader of the Beggar Clan, and wiped out the entire Dazhi Branch. In this way, the culprits Elder Xu and Quan Guanqing, as well as everyone who rebelled, will become "martyrs" and become an excuse for external forces to attack Qiao Feng and the Beggar Clan in the future.

Although Qiao Feng is top-notch in strength, it is impossible for him to kill everyone who opposes him, otherwise the picture will only get darker and darker. Qiao Feng is the leader of the gang. Although he is usually more generous and generous, it does not mean that he is stupid.

He also has the vision of a person in power.

Moreover, external conflicts are secondary. The most important thing is that if this incident starts, then the Beggar Gang will face a split.

The success that the Beggar Gang has achieved today is partly due to Qiao Feng's outstanding personal ability, and more importantly, the Beggar Gang's "emphasis on righteousness", which is united by the word "righteousness".

Otherwise, Quan Guanqing's incitement of rebellion would not have led Ma Dayuan's death to Qiao Feng.

If this rule is broken today, it will be difficult to lead the team after people's hearts are broken.

Moreover, this incident happened during Qiao Feng's tenure. Even if Qiao Feng quelled the rebellion, he would probably be criticized by future generations and become the "worst" gang leader in the history of the Beggar Clan.

It was just as Zhao Mu expected.

Qiao Feng only said half of what he said. He then continued: "No need to say anything, I have made up my mind. Whether I am a Hu or a Han, until this matter is investigated, I am the leader of the Beggar Clan. I can't sit still. When the matter is found out, if I am really a Hu, then the Beggar Clan will choose another Ming leader. Qiao Feng does not want to embarrass the Beggar Clan. But if it is found out, Qiao Feng is a Han, then this I’ll take back the dog-beating stick!”

Qiao Feng looked at Elder Chuan Gong, and then said: "Now that Brother Ma, the deputy gang leader, is no longer here, Elder Chuan Gong! Among the six elders, you have the most respectable status! I will leave this dog-beating stick to you for the time being! Wait until When the truth comes out, we will allocate it again!”

After saying that, Qiao Feng threw the dog-beating stick in his hand directly to the elder Chuan Gong.

Although the elder Chuan Gong was a little surprised, the treasure of the Beggar Clan would be damaged, so he had no choice but to put it away for the time being.
