Chapter 540 Red Light Envoy

"I want blood food, I want your father!"

When receiving the letter from the Truth Cult, Protector Zuo Shen Hongzhi suddenly flew into a rage. He slapped the table and began to curse, which shocked the Red Lantern Lady.

They didn't know that this was the sequelae of the Truth Cult being scolded away by the seventh aunt at night. In the mountains to the south, they began to gather troops and horses, intending to defeat the bandits in one fell swoop. In the north, they were urging blood food to prepare to recruit these bandits. Strange people in the world.

Nowadays, whether it is the soldiers and horses of the Truth Cult or the food security troops coming out of the mountains, they are all improvised. Therefore, it is the simplest truth to recruit enough helpers and how to kill all sides.

Hu Ma could see it, and the Truth Sect could also see it clearly. It was also because of this that earlier, in order to collect food, he was not in a hurry to rush the red lantern society. But now that it is time to see Zhenzhang, if he does not hand over the thousand jars of blood food, he will be even more worried. When?

But as soon as the letter came out, the left guardian of the Red Lantern Society almost fainted with anger: "The blood food has been stolen by your truth sect using evil methods long ago, and you still dare to ask us for it?"

"It's just that I made a lot of money quietly, and now I still want it. There are only three melons and two dates left in the two warehouses. It's not even enough to feed the mice. Could it be that they want to force us to sell the Red Lantern Queen?" Give them a discount?"

"..."

For a while, I was really confused about what the Truth Sect was doing. Previously, the Truth Sect’s people raided the blood food warehouse at night. After that night, the blood food disappeared. The left guardian could not contact the right guardian, so he had to check it himself. After searching for a long time, I really couldn't find any clues.

But there is no doubt that this blood food warehouse must have been intercepted by people from the Truth Sect, but for the purpose of borrowing blood food on the surface and stealing blood food secretly, I am a little uncertain for a while.

But on the surface, the Truth Cult came to Mingzhou to Zhenzong to preach, but secretly they were harvesting grain in the fields. Everyone saw it. Now when it comes to blood food, after thinking about it, it is probably the same way.

It's just a matter of bullying those poor peasants. After all, our Red Lantern Club is also serving as the master of crime. How can we be manipulated like this by you?

"Come here, I'm going to meet the truth sect now."

Amidst the anger, Protector Zuo immediately summoned all the incense owners, shopkeepers, and worshipers in Zhumen Town in front of the Red Lantern Temple. He waved the letter handed over by the Truth Cult and shouted: "It seems that this Truth Cult, at the beginning, He just harbors troubles and doesn’t let us have an easy time.”

"They were talking about asking us to borrow food, but I looked at it, maybe they wanted to find a reason to kill us and show it to the noble men in the city, but we are not weaklings!"

"Several brave brothers come out and go to Mingzhou City with me to confront them!"

"If they are really bullying people like this, then beat them!"

"There are three to five hundred men in our Red Lantern Club. Are we still afraid of a foreign monster like them?"

"..."

She was angry and full of blood, and her pretty face was filled with murderous intent. However, an embarrassing scene appeared. She was shouting vigorously from above, and everyone below also had sullen expressions on their faces, but when it came to the point, When they entered the city, no one answered.

Not willing to give in, she shouted again: "Come here, brothers, go into the city and talk to them. No one can be unreasonable!"

Still no one answered below.

The old gangsters below even began to lower their heads, not daring to make contact with her wonderful eyes.

Are you kidding me? They gathered grain and raised troops, occupied the capital city of Mingzhou, and united with various nobles, but they made it clear that they wanted to do big things...

Our Red Lantern Club is just a gangster, why are you fighting with others?

Everyone in the Red Lantern Club, whether it’s the shopkeeper, the worshipers, or even the incense owners, are not stupid. When the Jianghu sect encounters such a big-time troublemaker, the two sides are not on the same level...

In terms of experts, there are actually quite a few Red Lantern Clubs, with seventeen villages and blood food mines under their name. Most of them are keepers. When it comes to the killing field, every keeper is a good player and it is easy to become famous. of.

But who dares to rebel?

Not only do they not dare to rebel, but they also dare not fight against these rebellious people. After all, most of the people who watch the year are doing well and live a comfortable life. How can they put their wealth and life on such a thing?

Therefore, after Zuo Zuo shouted for a long time, he saw that except for a few taciturn incense burners who were willing to follow, none of the large group of gentlemen below dared to agree. Instead, their eyes were rolling, thinking of temporarily leaving the red lantern society. Quite a few...

Not only them, but even the red lanterns hanging in the temple behind them were a little confused: 'Send someone over first to explain it carefully. It's not that we won't give it, but there is really nothing left...'

'It hurts the peace to fight and kill people...'

‘…’

But in this awkward silence, someone suddenly jumped up and raised his hand: "I'll come, I'll come!"

Everyone hurriedly looked sideways, and saw that the person speaking was a young lady wearing a silk gown and a bright red skirt worn by a wealthy family's wife, with a bob on her head. She had a different style of painting than the crowd of people in the world.

But among a group of big and rough men, she looked upright and said: "It's the time to hire people in the meeting, why is no one standing up to share the worries of the queen?"

"oops……"

Protector Zuo Shen Hongzhi was furious beyond words. When he saw her, he was immediately overjoyed: "It's you, I finally found you."

"Sister, you have good skills and are loyal to our affairs. I noticed you last time. I looked for you afterwards, but I couldn't find you. You are a white-waisted little worshipper, right?"

"I feel sorry for you. After we met last time, I originally wanted to find you and make you a red waist."

"..."

"They are all doing things for the empress. I have a white waist but a red waist. How is that so important?"

Everyone around her also recognized her. This woman seemed to be Mrs. Mi Xingfu who had come over from the Tsing Yi Devil. Her husband's surname was Lu. She was just sick and no one had seen her.

These small offerings actually belong to the hidden power of the Red Lantern Society. They usually have to take care of business at home. Only when the Red Lantern Society summons them for something, they will come over to meet in secret. I don’t know why this rich lady is like this. So happy to be so active.

Even when faced with Guardian Zuo's suggestion that she be promoted, she only waved her hand and said, "Just give me a red lantern."

"I want to take it home and offer it as an offering. As long as I offer it to our Lady of the Red Lantern, I will feel happy doing the work. I won't be afraid of the green-clothed devil or the Truth Religion!"

"..."

"Okay, okay."

When Zuo Hufa heard what she said, he was so moved that he almost cried. Especially among this crowd of timid old men, he felt that sweet potato roasting was different. The more he looked at it, the more he liked it. He said, "He took the initiative to do things in the gang again." , not greedy for this credit..."

"Sister, how about you and I becoming sworn brothers and advancing and retreating together?"

"..."

"Married to Jinlan?"

Protector Zuo's moved suggestion made Mrs. Lu from Mihang stunned for a moment: "I've never played this before..."

He soon became excited: "Okay, okay, let's give it a try, is it interesting..."

Deliberately offending these cowardly gentlemen, Zuo Protector Shen Hongzhi came down and burned incense with the wealthy lady from Lu's Rice Shop, a young lady from the red lantern club, in front of everyone, and they became sworn friends to Jinlan.

Then she took out a gold-patterned red lantern that only the incense owner was qualified to carry and burned it for the sweet potato. This was equivalent to her appointment. Then she prepared to gather all the people and go to Mingzhou City with her. Go and see the Truth Cult directly.

Originally Protector Zuo Shen Hongzhi wanted to go with her, but Mrs. Lu stayed with her righteously: "Sister, you stay, it's inconvenient for me to take you with me..."

"...not safe."

"There are a lot of things going on in the meeting now. If anything goes wrong, you still have to take charge of the overall situation!"

"..."

Protector Zuo was greatly moved by these words. He took her hand and whispered: "Sister, I said some things in a low voice just now. I had to be tougher when I spoke, but after you go, you can You must not say that..."

"The main thing is to tell them that we really don't have that much blood food anymore. If they only want one or two hundred jars, we will get it for them..."

"..."

"Where are there another one or two hundred jars?"

Hearing this, Diguashao said seriously: "Sister, don't worry, I know it well!"

After saying that, he picked up the beam and left the town alone. He went to the nearby village and paid for a few people to carry the sedan. He also picked up the red lantern, played and played, and came all the way to the capital city of Mingzhou.

Entering the city with such a high profile, I don't know how many people's attention was attracted at once. Along the street, people from the world were wearing flags with the word "reason" and carrying weapons on their waists. Sir, all the officials and yamen servants in official uniforms were ushered over.

Nowadays, there is war and chaos outside, and people say that the food bandits are causing a lot of trouble in the mountains. People are panicking. When they see the people from the Red Lantern Club coming, they are naturally concerned about the situation.

"Back then, our red lantern festival didn't even have this card in Mingzhou City..."

But Sweet Potato burned into the city. Sitting on the sedan chair and looking around, he saw the banners of the Truth Religion everywhere, and he felt that he was not worthy of the Red Lantern Empress: "Such a highly virtuous empress could only huddle in the southwest corner of the city, so... It was easy to build a temple and was driven to Zhumen Town..."

The more he spoke, the angrier he became: "Your Majesty, you are so pitiful, I can't be more angry for your Majesty..."

When she was thinking about it, she had already arrived at the Fucheng Yamen, and saw the altar leader of the Truth Cult, who had already gained faith, and came out to wait for her.

Di Gua Shao got down from the sedan, politely bowed to the two altar masters, and the two altar masters were also busy making gestures to come to receive them, but after all, they saw that it was a female streamer who came, so they only made a gesture and said nothing. Not really touching her, he smiled and said:

"I'm about to invite my colleagues from the Red Lantern Club to discuss important matters. Friends from the Red Lantern Club are here. Please come in quickly..."

"..."

"Then there's no need. I'm just here to deliver a message to the gang. You sent someone to deliver a letter asking about these thousand jars of blood food. Our lady said..."

Digua Shao glanced at the people around him shyly, then raised his head, raised his chin slightly, and said loudly: "Don't worry about it..."

"...Not at all!"
