Seeing that the stone island lord was speaking impassionedly, Yanagi Zongyan just sneered and said: "Lord Island, you are not the master of the sect, and these enemies in front of us are not the Ming army on the southeast coast!"

Yanagi Zongyan's words were heavier and quite sarcastic. It was because of his voice that the stone island lord's face changed greatly, he gasped, and said to Yanagi Zongyan: "Your Excellency is right, I am just a ronin on the sea, and my martial arts knowledge naturally cannot be compared with Lord Zongshi. However, the officers and soldiers and people of the Ming Kingdom are the same everywhere, all of them are some waste. Henan is also a big man, and he hasn't been played with by us? Your Excellency, don't forget that Liang Huan is still in our hands. When the matter really comes to an urgent juncture, we might as well push this coward out and see which officer and soldier dare to be rude to him? Master Zongshe just killed a commander and a Japanese envoy, but what we have captured is a provincial envoy, and his position is much higher. Hey, hey, hey. ”

Liu Shengzongyan heard the stone island lord mention Liang Huan's name, his heart moved, and said: "I have instructed Bai Zichang and Xu Chengzong to go to the county government to bring Liang Huan here, why haven't the two of them come back?"

Shi Dao said: "I have long looked at the two ends of Bai Zichang's head, he is mercenary, and he is a despicable and shameless villain. But Your Excellency said that the villain can take advantage of him, and he trusts him very much, and lets him do things. If this villain has a different heart and lets Liang Huan go, we don't have hostages in our hands, and things won't be easy. ”

Yanagi Zongyan shook his head and said, "Bai Zichang is indeed a mercenary villain, but it is precisely because he is greedy for money that he can be used by me. We promised to give him 50,000 taels of silver, and we have already paid him 25,000 taels in advance, and for the remaining 25,000 taels of silver, even if we sell his parents and wife, he will accept it without blinking......"

When Yanagi Zongyan said this, he suddenly stopped talking, turned his head and looked around, his face changed greatly, and said, "Where did Xu Chengji go?!"

The master of Shidao was stunned for a moment, and then glanced around, and sure enough, there was no shadow of Xu Chengsi. He hurriedly called over a few Japanese leaders, and said a few words of Fusang, and the Japanese leaders shook their heads again and again, saying that they didn't see where Xu Chengsi went.

Monk Guangzhi was already standing next to a fire at this time, drying his clothes while watching Yanagi Zongyan and the stone island master talk coldly. I saw that the two of them looked quite nervous, as if they were arguing about something. Later, Yanagi Zongyan didn't say anything, but a pair of eyes were wandering around, as if he was looking for someone. Then the lord of Shidao also looked around, and called a few more widows to his side, and discussed in a low voice. Monk Guangzhi secretly thought in his heart, these two widows are not a good thing, and now the City God Temple has become a tiger's den in Longtan, and if either side has the upper hand, it will not do him any good. It's better to get out as soon as possible, and then try to dominate the martial arts. A few days ago, thousands of Jianghu characters who were bought by Liu Sheng Zongyan with both soft and hard fell for the tricks of the Nie, Lu, Zhao, and Du families, and were defeated and defeated, with heavy casualties. Many gang leaders and leaders died as a result, and the gang members and disciples were leaderless. Especially in the hundreds of years of gangs like the Taishan faction and the Songshan faction, although the gang leaders and heads and the masters in the sect are all killed and injured, but as the saying goes, although the hundred-legged insects are not stiff, the remaining gang disciples are still a force to be reckoned with in the rivers and lakes. I am worried that there are too few disciples under my disciples, so I can take this opportunity to gather these leaderless figures in the rivers and lakes, so that my power has expanded dramatically, and I can compete with Shaolin, Wudang and other major sects, so that I can get what I want. Now we have to think of a way to leave the temple as soon as possible.

While he was thinking about it, he saw Liu Sheng Zongyan coming over and whispered to him, "Has the master ever seen Xu Chenghe?"

Monk Guangzhi was afraid that Yanagi Zongyan would see through his thoughts, and when he was nervous, he was relieved when he heard Yanagi Zongyan ask about Xu Chenghe's whereabouts. He shook his head and said, "The poor monk only cared about dealing with the enemy, and didn't pay attention to where Xu Shizhu went. ”

Liu Shengzong was anxious in his heart, and when he heard Monk Guangzhi say this, he secretly thought in his heart, you monk is so cunning, just now you just gathered your disciples and hid behind. At this time, he said that he only cared about dealing with the enemy and blowing nonsense!

Monk Guangzhi saw that Yanagi Zongyan's face was cloudy, and he didn't know what idea he was thinking in his heart, so he was quite uneasy in his heart, and his arms were full of strength, and he was secretly on guard.

Liu Sheng Zongyan pondered for a moment, and then said: "The brothers of the Xu family are bent on revenge, so they joined forces with us, and their hearts are unfathomable. A few hours ago, the old man asked Xu Chengsi and Bai Zi to bring Liang Huan here, but the two never returned. Now that Xu Chengzong is gone, I am afraid that things will change. The old man wanted to ask the master to go to the county office to see what was going on there. If you see Xu Chengsi and Bai Zichang, you will bring Liang Huan back here with them. ”

When he said this, he paused slightly, and then continued: "If Xu and Bai refuse to obey orders, the master can deal with them cheaply. ”

Monk Guangzhi heard that Yanagi Zongyan wanted to go to the county government by himself, and he was in the middle of it. He had been thinking about a way to get out, and he could take this opportunity to leave the City God Temple in a grand manner. As for who wins and who loses on both sides, it has nothing to do with him. As long as he leaves Xiuwu County, he can recruit those scattered people in the rivers and lakes. Monk Guangzhi has already made up his mind, and the first thing to recruit is the disciples of the Taishan faction and the Songshan faction. This is because Guan Ping, the head of the Taishan faction, has died, four of the five elders of Taishan have also died, and the remaining Ding Yu is also seriously injured and has nothing to fear. Lin Yilang, the head of the Songshan faction, died in the belly of Hutouyan Shajiabao, and now the Songshan faction is divided, fighting in the same room, like a plate of loose sand. He can just take this opportunity to take the two major sects of Mount Tai and Songshan under his hands. Since then, it has continued to expand its power, and it will definitely be able to compete with Shaolin and Wudang.

Thinking of this, Monk Guangzhi clasped his hands together and said: "Amitabha Buddha, the poor monk obeys Mr. Liu's order, so he will take people to the county government to bring Liang Huan." ”

Yanagi Zongyan nodded and said, "Then it's hard master." ”

At this time, more than a dozen fires were lit in the courtyard, and the flames were fierce, and the crackling sound of wooden boards and bamboo chips was constantly burning. Liu Shengzong Yan watched Monk Guangzhi walk straight towards the temple gate with more than a dozen monks, and thought to himself, there was already a pillar of incense when the fire was lit, and there was still no movement outside. Perhaps it is true that as the Lord of Shidao said, Yun Zhongzi fell into the trap of those Han people in the temple and spread false news.

Thinking of this, Yanagi Zongyan suddenly noticed that after Yun Zhongzi retreated into the main hall, he never reappeared. He was in a pang in his heart, and secretly scolded himself for being careless, but he didn't expect that Yun Zhongzi's identity might have been seen through by the Nie family a long time ago. The other party deliberately let Yun Neutron deliver false news to him. Afterwards, I was worried that I would find out, and I had restrained Yun Zhongzi in the main hall, so he never showed up.

The more Yanagi Zongyan thought about it, the more frightened he became, the more he thought about it, but he was annoyed, but he also regretted it a little. He has not let the Shidao Lord's men attack the main hall because he is worried that the Ruyang Wei Iron Cavalry will attack. Otherwise, he set the hall on fire with a rocket, and burned Old Lady Nie, Ji Dingzhong, Li Qiufeng, etc. to death, and there would have been no trouble now. He turned to look at the main hall, but saw Li Qiufeng, Daoist Min and others guarding under the stone steps at the front door of the main hall, while Ji Dingzhong was standing in front of the hall and was talking to Huang Chong in a low voice.

Liu Sheng Zongyan judged that Yun Zhongzi had been detected by the Nie family nine times out of ten, and even if he was not dead at this time, he had already been subdued by the Nie family. In this case, there is no need to engage the enemy in close combat, as long as the subordinates of the Lord of Shidao guard the surroundings of the main hall, and then set the main hall on fire with rockets, and the enemy will have nowhere to escape. After these people are burned to death, they can use the children of the Nie, Lu, Zhao, and Du families who were captured alive to earn the secret passage outside Fengmen Village, and then they can control Fengmen Village in their own hands.

Thinking of this, Yanagi Sect already had an idea. It's just that when he was about to walk to the stone island lord to discuss this matter, he suddenly heard a palpitating sound of feather arrows breaking through the air outside the temple gate. Liu Sheng Zongyan was shocked and hurriedly turned his head to look at the temple gate. However, he saw that the figures of Monk Guangzhi and others had disappeared outside the door, but several feather arrows shot in from outside the temple and landed obliquely on several corpses lying under the stone steps of the temple gate. Then the sound of feather arrows breaking through the air continued, and dozens of feather arrows crossed the wall of the City God Temple and fell into the courtyard. It's just that the momentum of the feather arrow had waned when it fell, and it didn't hurt the Japanese who were standing in the courtyard.
