Chapter 193: Escape from Dengzhou 2

Xia Nan sat down unceremoniously, sat opposite Wang Bao, crossed Erlang's legs, and asked in a leisurely manner: "Dao Chief, is your nose very smart?" Li Jiucheng and they only captured Dengzhou City last night, and the Taoist chief followed him into the city today, and he can't hide anything from you! ”

Wang Bao pretended not to hear the banter in his words, turned his head to Bai Lian and said, "Holy Maiden, I heard that you and General Li have made an alliance to conquer Dengzhou, and after conquering Dengzhou, this sect can openly recruit believers in Dengzhou City?" ”

Bai Lian's heart sank, and she subconsciously looked at Xia Nan. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Net Xia Nan was not surprised, he mixed into the rebels by relying on Wang Bao's introduction, there must be his people in the army, what he did in the rebels, he can know, it is not unusual at all. He took over and said, "That's true. On the same day, Li Jiucheng asked me to come to Dengzhou to contact Geng Zhongming, which was a condition I offered, and I would not run errands in vain. ”

Wang Bao said with a smile: "The Holy Maiden has made such a meritorious contribution and won such good conditions for this sect, and my White Lotus Sect is strong and will unify all sects and factions in Shandong, which is just around the corner." ”

Bai Lian lowered her eyelids and replied coldly: "I, Bai Lian, only know how to promote teachings, I don't understand anything else, and I don't want to participate." ”

Wang Bao said eagerly: "Why did the holy woman say this? You are in a high position, and the strength of this sect is expanding, so you should also contribute. If the saint doesn't bother to do these chores, then I might as well do it for you. ”

Since experiencing a series of events such as the rebels entering the city, fighting with the rebels, and witnessing the atrocities of the rebels, Bai Lian has taken a much light view of the things in the sect. The good and the bad in the sect are uneven, and he can't afford to carry this burden alone, and the rebels are too brutal and selfish to disdain to be with them, and the original momentum to win over the rebels to revitalize the White Lotus Sect has long since disappeared. Wang Bao wants to take this opportunity to show his followers in Dengzhou City, but it is nothing more than for his own selfishness, he can't afford to manage it, and he doesn't want to care about it, as for whether to give him this opportunity, it still depends on Xia Nan, after all, this opportunity is what he fought for.

Seeing that Bai Lian didn't answer herself, but stared at Xia Nan, Wang Bao knew that this matter had to fall on Xia Nan, and immediately said to him: "Xia ...... Brother Xia, although you have not joined my White Lotus Sect, you have a great relationship with the Holy Maiden, and you should also be responsible for the White Lotus Sect. If you want, we will make a gentleman's agreement, I will recruit the believers in the east city, and the west city will give you and the holy woman, how about it? ”

In his opinion, Bai Lian and Xia Nan worked hard, not like themselves, they wanted to recruit believers, expand their strength, and improve their voice in the sect. I have money and people, and the three of them are not as good as themselves in terms of financial resources and manpower, and it is already a big concession to be able to divide them into two-and-a-half, otherwise the three of them alone will not be able to swallow such a big plate no matter what.

When Xia Nan put forward such a condition, it was just a smoke bomb, and he had no interest in being a god stick to attract believers. Since Wang Bao smelled the fishy smell and wanted to catch a handful in Dengzhou City, it didn't hurt to do it for him, lest he didn't move for a long time and make Li Jiucheng and the others suspicious.

However, you can't promise in vain, you never do loss-making business, even if you don't want it, you can't give it to Wang Bao in vain. Xia Nan thought about it, and in a flash of inspiration, he could use Wang Bao's way to find an opportunity to send Sun Yuanhua out of the city, as well as the dozen or so Portuguese, otherwise he couldn't do it anyway with his own strength.

"Wang Daochang, you are right, although I did not join the religion, I don't look at the face of the monk to see the face of the Buddha. When it comes to recruiting believers, you are familiar with it, and you can do it all. However, you have to promise me one condition. ”

Wang Bao was overjoyed, he didn't expect this kid to suddenly be so easy to speak, and he was busy responding: "It's easy to say, I will agree to any conditions." ”

"There are a few Francos in the governor's yamen, who were the teachers of Li Jiucheng and Kong Youde who practiced the Hongyi cannon, Li Jiucheng did not want to kill them, and this army was in chaos, so he couldn't take care of them for the time being. I have been entrusted with the task of sending them out to sea and returning to my hometown by boat, and you will help me when the time comes. Xia Nan's words were half-true, and he didn't mention Sun Yuanhua, he only said Yiren, so as not to make Wang Bao suspicious.

Wang Bao hesitated when he heard this, and asked, "General Li really thinks so?" Will letting them go will anger General Lee? ”

"You can rest assured, Li Jiucheng is dedicated to being the king, so if you have the kung fu to take care of a few of them, it is estimated that you will forget about it tomorrow. Besides, after all, there is an incense fire, even if I know that they don't say goodbye, it won't be good, and I won't use my head to save a few people, right? ”

This is reasonable, and Wang Bao believes it. He has a disciple who is a personal soldier by Li Jiucheng's side, Li Jiucheng has the idea of becoming a king on his own, he knows, how can a person who wants to do big things be entangled in these small things. Besides, if you want to kill, you will already be wiped with a knife, how can you be placed in the governor's yamen?

However, how did he know that in history, these Yi people were indeed wiped by Li Jiucheng, but they were temporarily saved by Xia Nan, if Sun Yuanhua did not submit to the rebels, these Yi people would eventually die.

"I promise you such a trivial matter." Wang Bao patted his chest. However, the territory is all for himself, what is this kid trying to do? He said tentatively: "Brother Xia is so righteous, I don't know what plans I have in the future?" ”

Xia Nan heard his thoughts and continued to flicker: "Since I have not joined the sect, naturally I will not compete with you for these believers." For now, I will stay with Li Jiucheng and Kong Youde to help them come up with ideas, and if the court appeases them in the future, maybe they will be able to become an official and a half-job. To tell you the truth, it was my idea to contact Geng Zhongming and others to take Dengzhou, and they trust me very much now. ”

Wang Bao was even more convinced when he heard this, Nan was going to the official position of the imperial court this summer, so he naturally looked down on the deeds of these sects. I don't have that creation, I still honestly open the altar and loot the believers' money, these days, my father and mother don't have any money.

After sending Wang Bao away, Xia Nan explained to Bai Lian: "Immortal Gu, the conditions I set with Wang Bao just now did not ask for your consent......

Bai Lian raised her hand to stop him and said, "I've already thought about it, I can't manage the affairs of the sect, and I don't want to take care of it, I haven't thought about how to go in the future." What's more, these are all things that you risked your life in exchange, and I will not interfere with whoever you are willing to give it to. ”

Xia Nan said gratefully: "Immortal Gu understands righteousness, and I am very grateful. ”

"Tiannan, do you really want to save those Yi people? They are not related to us. Bai Xiaoxian asked curiously.

"That's a lie to Wang Bao, I actually want to save Lord Sun, he is a good official, worried about the country and the people, he shouldn't die in the hands of the rebels like this. I pretended to let Wang Bao save those Yi people, and then mixed Master Sun in disguise and took them out together. Otherwise, if he directly said to save Lord Sun, Wang Bao would never agree. ”

Bai Lian nodded, approving of his approach: "Since you are a good official, you naturally want to save it, you did the right thing!" ”

Xia Nan sighed in his heart, he said a bunch of lies to Wang Bao, and what he said to Bai Lian was still a lie, in fact, it was all out of his own selfishness. 's true identity, I still have to find an opportunity to tell her and Bai Xiaoxian that although the two of them are sect members, their essence is not bad. To be continued.
