0388. Beggar Clan Conference
"This...this beggar sect's meeting is a matter of the world. If the government interferes, it will cause trouble. Princess, you also know that the rules of my beggar sect are not to have any contact with the government... "Luchang Fu was a little moved. After all, Princess Huanzhu's status was respected. If she went as a registered disciple, she might really be able to help, but after a slight hesitation, he gave up the idea.
The iron rule of the Beggar Clan is to never have any contact with the government. It has been adhered to for nearly a thousand years. Even if it is life and death, the rules cannot be broken.
Wang Shiyu, the princess of Huanzhu County, rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "Elder Lu, you are wrong about this. I am not a member of the government. I am just the daughter of an idle prince and do not hold an official position. What's more, I was also a refugee back then, but I was lucky enough to enter the palace, and now I am a registered disciple of my Beggar Clan. I will definitely not break the rules if I follow you."
"This..." Lu Changfu didn't know how to refute.
To be honest, the Nagato of the Beggar Clan is very fond of Princess Huanzhu. There is no trace of arrogance or extravagance in this woman. On the contrary, she is very open-minded and has a good relationship with the beggars. He helped the disciples become one with each other and never thought the beggars were dirty.
Moreover, in the past year or so, due to the relationship with Princess Huanzhu, the Eighth Prince's Palace has opened porridge shacks in Changmen District many times to provide relief to the refugees. Especially with the outbreak of the Eight Kings Rebellion, Changmen District has taken in so many people. The refugees are close to their beggar gang. Even if they can maintain order, how can they feed these people? After all, they themselves were just begging for food, but thanks to the free charity provided by the Eight Sages' Palace, the refugees in this area could barely save their lives.
This is the same behavior that thousands of families would do to give birth to a Buddha.
Wang Shiyu said: "Elder Lu, if you are so hesitant, you don't regard me as a brother of the Beggar Clan."
"This... well, whatever, I'll take you there, but your guards must also dress up in disguise and take off their brocade robes. Moreover, after you go, you can just take a look. Don't interfere in specific affairs tonight. It's very dangerous." Lu Changfu was an honest man. After a few moments, he was surrounded by Wang Shiyu and had to compromise.
"Hehe, brother Lu, don't worry." Wang Shiyu's eyes were rolling, looking impatient: "I came out this time without a guard, so I won't have any trouble."
Li Mu is right, this girl just likes to join in the fun.
"Then these friends..." Lu Changfu looked at Li Mu, Yuan Ho and Qingfeng.
Li Mu smiled and said: "Elder Lu, don't worry, I am definitely not a member of the government. I was once a fellow villager with Princess Huanzhu, and I am also a homeless person."
Lu Changfu didn't know the true meaning of his words, but he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "In this case, a few people will have to be wronged."
He ordered several Beggar Clan disciples to bring some dirty and torn robes.
Li Mu didn't take it seriously at all, and put it on directly. He was barefoot, like a beggar, but his temperament didn't look like it. Li Mu thought for a while, grabbed some dirt from the ground, and smeared it on his face. He suddenly felt like a beggar gang. The temperament is ready to come out.
Lu Changfu was also a little surprised.
Because although Li Mu wore simple clothes before, he looked like he came from a wealthy and high-ranking family, especially with that kind of temperament. It was rare for Lu Changfu to travel around the world. He thought he would not be able to put on airs, but the clothes he found were actually relatively neat. Who knew that this young man would be so open-minded and forthright that he would wipe his face with black mud...
Lu Changfu looked at Li Mu with admiration.
Since Li Mu was like this, Yuan Hong and Qingfeng had no objection. They both put on those tattered clothes and stored their wheelchairs at the Nagato sub-rudder, with Yuan Hong carrying Qingfeng on his back.
After a while, Wang Shiyu also went to the room and changed her clothes. She was still dressed as a man, and she became a handsome little beggar.
"Hehe, old classmate, you are performing in your true colors." Wang Shiyu laughed when she saw Li Mu's dress, remembering that when she was on earth, Li Mu helped the villagers plant rice, but he also had a look of mud on his face.
Li Mu smiled.
Wang Shiyu disguises herself as a man. Although she is dressed as a little beggar, she is so handsome. She has a rare temperament like a handsome man, which is eye-catching. Sure enough, good looks mean willfulness. She can do any cosplay. What if she returns to Earth? On top of that, you can’t instantly kill those fresh meat with low traffic.
After everything was packed up, several people set off with Elder Lu.
Some of the elite men from the Nagato Branch of the Beggar Clan, a total of more than 100 people, set off from the waterway in a fleet of ten open-top boats.
At this time, it was already sunset, and the setting sun was like blood.
The boat is not fast.
Through the conversation with Elder Lu, Li Mu learned that the chief helm of the Beggar Clan is located on a lake island in Chang'an City, called Beggar Island. It covers a large area and is a place that the government does not care about. Beggars gang.
The imperial court of the Northern Song Dynasty never interfered with the Beggar Gang. This is because the leaders of the Beggar Gang in the past dynasties were all absolute strong men who ranked at the top of the Northern Song Dynasty. Moreover, the purpose of the Beggar Gang was never to compete for family and government affairs. I followed my Yangguan Road. You cross your single-plank bridge and live in peace.
In short, the Beggar Gang was one of the most unique gangs in the Northern Song Dynasty.
At sunset, Beggar Island is in sight.
Li Mu suddenly frowned slightly.
Because he noticed that a hundred meters deep in the water ahead, there were actually two very powerful martial arts auras hidden. They were both in the realm of heaven and human beings, both of which were stronger than Lu Changfu. They carefully concealed their murderous intent. But how to hide it from Li Mu's perception? If these two people made a sneak attack, the entire Beggar Gang masters in the Nagato branch would probably be wiped out.
Beggars?
Or an enemy?
Li Mu couldn't tell for a while.
He thought for a moment, then calmly stretched out his mental energy and pressed down.
The two powerful men in the water in the heavenly realm instantly seemed to be frozen at the bottom of the water, not daring to move.
"Young master, when we arrive on the island soon, please don't wander around, look or talk. The situation on the island is a bit dangerous today. If you get lost, I'm afraid I won't be able to protect you." Lu Changfu is an honest man. , still urging Li Mu worriedly.
Li Mu smiled and said, "Brother Lu, don't worry, we won't have to worry."
Wang Shiyu just smiled and said nothing, silently watching Li Mu pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. Who else in the world could threaten him?
Soon, the fleet docked at the pier of Beggar Island.
There were experts from the Beggar Clan leading people to greet him.
"Lao Lu, are you having a smooth journey?" The leader is a middle-aged man with disheveled and smeared hair. He is burly and has reached the first level of heaven and human realm. The aura of fire is flowing all over his body. He is obviously a fire cultivator. A strong man from the Beggar Clan.
Lu Changfu cupped his hands and said, "It was calm and the journey was smooth."
The middle-aged man said: "You are lucky. The other brothers in the helm were attacked on the way here and suffered heavy losses. Especially the Tumen helm, which was completely wiped out...those thieves were actually in Beggar The person who ambushed us on the lake, Elder Song from the Law Enforcement Hall, has already led people to fight back."
"Ah? Is there such a thing?" Lu Changfu was shocked.
Immediately, the person at the helm of Nagato was led to the interior of Beggar Island.
at the same time.
Far away, on the lake where the fleet passed by before, two ghost-faced strong men in tight-fitting black outfits floated up from the water. They looked at each other with horrified expressions. They could not hide the look of horror in each other's eyes. An expression like seeing a ghost.
"What's going on? Apart from Lu Changfu, who is in the heavenly realm, among the people in Nagato's helm, there are other experts like this? When that energy suppressed me, I felt like I was going to be crushed into ashes. "
"Can't he be a saint?"
"It can't be a saint. How can there be so many saints in this world? They should be gods and humans."
"Well, what Brother Bo Ren said makes sense, but the Great Perfection of Heaven and Man is also very troublesome. We have to inform the young master quickly, otherwise, things will change tonight."
…
Beggar Island covers an area of several thousand acres and has an extremely peculiar terrain. Less than a hundred meters into the island, there are small mountains rising a thousand meters high, enclosing the entire Beggar Island, and in the middle is a plain, like a large Like a basin floating on the lake, there are only some secret passages at the foot of the mountain leading to the island's plains, which are twists and turns, heavily guarded and heavily guarded.
Some of these secret passages are naturally generated, while others are artificially dug by the beggars.
From the terrain point of view, Beggar Island is easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Li Mu and others followed Lu Changfu and soon entered the island and were led to a large rocky beach.
There are already dense crowds here. There are about tens of thousands of experts from other branches of the Beggar Clan. Many of them have come from outside Lin'an City. They look dusty. The people from the Changmen Branch are arranged in Bing He took a seat in the back row of the area and sat down casually on the rocky beach.
Lu Changfu greeted the people around him. He was obviously well-connected and popular.
Li Mu and others behaved very low-key, huddled among the disciples in the branch, and did not attract anyone's attention.
Time flies.
Soon, a full moon slowly climbed over the mountains surrounding the island and settled in the sky.
Some masters of the Beggar Clan arrived one after another, but most of them were injured and cursed when they arrived. However, they were attacked on the way and suffered heavy losses.
Li Mu has a lot of surrounding terrain.
The central area of the rocky beach is a piece of land more than ten meters high, with a length and width of more than 400 meters. The surface is flat and square, like a giant fighting ring. It is already covered with mottled moss, so it cannot be seen that it is natural. The square stone was still hand-carved, but Li Mu could clearly sense that the rock was densely covered with various star formations and blessings.
Soon, the second full moon rose into the sky.
At this time, about 30,000 to 40,000 people have gathered on the surrounding rocky beach. Most of them are strong men from the Beggar Clan, and there are hundreds of strong people in the Heavenly Realm. However, most of them are just one or two steps from Heavenly Humanity, and are truly advanced. There are only a dozen or so powerful people in the Heavenly Realm, and most of them are older people.
There is life everywhere, dense and dense crowds of people.
Two moons hang in the sky.
There was a flash of brilliance.
A white-haired old beggar appeared on the square stone platform, holding a wooden stick in his hand. He inserted it into the center of the stone platform with ease. The bamboo stick penetrated the stone as easily as inserting tofu. He glanced around , said: "Everyone, our Beggar Clan is convening an urgent Beggar Clan meeting tonight because it is truly a matter of life and death for our Clan. All brothers, please gather together and have a discussion."
There was silence all around.
This gray-haired old beggar is the contemporary leader of the Beggar Gang [God Beggar].
The Beggar Clan Conference has officially begun.
