Chapter 218 Brother, Don’t Go!
Luo Dagui is the Lord of Zhou?
They are the same person?
What kind of logic is this?
Li Banfeng has no time to think about logic now. A group of angry house cultivators rushed over. Li Banfeng held the head and ran away.
"Catch him!"
"Revenge the Lord of the Castle!"
"He ran so fast, obviously he is a travel cultivator, and travel cultivators are not good!"
Li Banfeng ran for more than ten miles and finally got rid of this group of house cultivators.
Sitting on the hillside, Li Banfeng looked at Luo Dagui's head in his hand and sorted out his thoughts carefully.
It doesn't make sense.
In front of the Iron Gate Castle, Luo Dagui was still talking to the Lord of Zhou. How come he became the Lord of the Castle in a blink of an eye?
What is the inside story here?
Now the group of house cultivators think that I killed the Lord of Zhou. How can I explain this to them?
I almost forgot that there is an eyewitness.
Luo Dagui didn't know that Sui Donglan was hiding in the bushes because he was not good enough.
Li Banfeng had string earrings, and he could hear the sound of her drinking wine clearly.
He went directly to Sui Donglan's residence.
Seeing Li Banfeng, Sui Donglan smiled: "You are here."
"I am here," Li Banfeng nodded, "Did you see what happened during the day?"
"During the day? What happened during the day? I was at home all day, waiting for you to come."
Li Banfeng blinked and said: "What are you talking about? I'm talking about Tiemenbao!"
"Tiemenbao, what is that place? Are you willing to take me there? I want to go with you."
Is this woman crazy?
Li Banfeng looked at Sui Donglan, sighed and said: "I was going to give you a cup of wine to remove the words on your face."
Sui Donglan said with a dull smile: "What words? Are there words on my face?"
Li Banfeng shook his head and said: "Since you are already crazy, I will leave these two words to you as a thought, maybe you can wake up in the future."
After that, Li Banfeng got up and left.
Sui Donglan fell to the ground and hugged her legs immediately: "Mr. Peddler, you can't leave! Have mercy on me!"
Li Banfeng snorted coldly: "You are pretending to be crazy with me, do you think you are pretending well? Did you see what happened during the day?"
"I saw it," Sui Donglan cried, "Luo Dagui is the Lord of Zhou Fort, I was scared to death when I saw it."
"It's good to see it, come, follow me to Tiemen Fort and explain the matter clearly."
"Master, if I can't explain it clearly, how can Tiemen Fort believe me? I am an outsider and a liar, and it's useless for me to say anything."
That's the truth.
Forget it, if it can't be explained clearly, it can't be explained clearly. Anyway, the liar Lord Zhou Fort is dead, and Luo Paotou of Feiying Mountain is also dead.
What should be done has been done, and the rest depends on their own luck.
I just don't know if this matter will implicate Wu Yongchao.
...
Wu Yongchao was really implicated a little, just a little.
Ma Dingfu was not dead. He was the first to stand up and convict Wu Yongchao: "You want to open the gate, you want to let the peddler in, you and him are in cahoots, you killed Lord Zhou together!"
He fabricated a series of charges, Wu Yongchao only explained: "I heard someone was beating bandits, so I went out to see, what's wrong?"
"There are many things wrong, why do you open the gate, why..." Ma Dingfu's voice became smaller and smaller.
He realized one thing, Zhou Anju was dead.
Wu Yongchao was a fourth-level house cultivator, and Ma Dingfu was a third-level body cultivator. If they really started fighting, he would not be able to take advantage, and he might even lose his life.
What about Lord Zhou's former subordinates? Can't they support Ma Dingfu?
At present, it seems that they can't.
There is a housekeeper He, who has a fifth-level cultivation, who stays in Lord Zhou's house, but he never goes out. This is Zhou Anju's order.
The other subordinates are all from Feiying Mountain, and they are all lying outside the Iron Gate Fort.
Ma Dingfu insisted that these were all people from Tiemenbao, and they were all killed by the peddler, but the wooden box with a big speaker was hard to explain, and the clothes they wore and the masks on their faces were also hard to explain.
Although the matter was hard to explain, the house repairman was easy to deceive.
Ma Dingfu focused his firepower on scolding the peddler, scolding with tears in his eyes and gritting his teeth.
"The death of Lord Zhou was unjust, this revenge must be avenged!"
The emotions of the house repairmen were mobilized, and they followed suit.
Only Wu Yongchao did not scold.
He was honest, but he was not stupid, and many things were being connected by him bit by bit.
The crowd took back Lord Zhou's body and was about to deal with the funeral, when they suddenly heard a drumbeat from outside the valley:
"Foreign soap, vanishing cream, silk scarf handkerchief sewing kit, leather bucket, iron water bucket, foreign matches, foreign wax, foreign shovel..."
The peddler pushed the cart and passed by Tiemenbao and saw a group of people rushing out.
So many people!
The peddler was pleasantly surprised: "Business is good today, you want to buy some... What are you doing... What do you want to do?"
A group of home cultivators roared: "Catch him, kill him!"
"Quick, avenge the fortress owner!"
"It's not him, it's his senior brother!"
"No matter who it is, he is not a good guy!"
"Everyone be careful, his cultivation is not low!"
"Don't be afraid, our home cultivators are not cowards!"
...
Li Banfeng asked Sui Donglan to choose, either leave the words on her face, or have a face pain for an hour every day, anyway, the previous fraud can't just be let go.
Sui Donglan begged in vain, and finally chose to leave the words.
Li Banfeng gave Sui Donglan a glass of wine to relieve her pain.
Following the route pointed by Wu Yongchao, Li Banfeng found Peach Blossom Lake. After walking half a circle around Peach Blossom Lake, Li Banfeng found the big stone.
He felt the temperature of the lake water and was considering whether to jump in.
Li Banfeng wanted to swim, but he didn't know what was going on under the lake.
This outfit is also not suitable for entering the water, but it seems that Curie doesn’t have a swimsuit either.
Why don't you wait any longer?
Forget it, don't wait, I will go back sooner or later. Ling Miaoying's matter should also be dealt with. He plotted against me, and I can't spare him. Regardless of his high level of cultivation, there is always a way to deal with him.
He looked back at Iron Gate Castle, feeling that he couldn't let go.
While he was struggling, he suddenly heard someone shouting in his ear: "Brother, where are you going?"
Senior brother?
Are you calling me?
Li Banfeng turned around and saw a man with a bruised nose and swollen face standing behind him.
The person who can come up behind Li Banfeng silently is definitely not an ordinary person. Li Banfeng took two steps back and shouted: "Who are you?"
The man smiled and said, "Senior brother, you don't recognize me so soon?"
Li Banfeng carefully distinguished the voice, and found that the other party's words were a bit unclear.
"Salesman? How did you do this?"
The salesman smiled even more heartily: "Brother, I have to ask you about this!"
"You, don't always call me senior brother," Li Banfeng felt embarrassed, "There is a misunderstanding here."
The salesman nodded and said: "There is such a big misunderstanding here that I can't explain it clearly. Put other things aside for now. Let's talk about this senior brother first. Tell me, where did this senior brother of yours come from?"
While talking, the salesman was rolling up his sleeves.
Li Banfeng realized that the situation was not good and quickly put his hand into his trouser pocket.
"No, don't take out the keys," the salesman said with a grim smile, "Others don't know your tricks, so don't I know?"
"What, listen to me, I am also doing good things..."
"Say it slowly. You ruined my reputation and pretended to be my senior brother. Let me see what you say!" The salesman pulled out the feather duster from the truck.
…
Half an hour later, with bruises and swollen faces, the two of them sat by the lake together.
Li Banfeng sighed and said: "With your cultivation level, how could you be beaten by those house cultivators?"
The salesman smiled bitterly and said: "They are all mortal beings, how can I be so harsh on them?"
Li Banfeng rubbed his face and said, "You are quite harsh!"
The salesman looked at Peach Blossom Lake and said, "Why, are you going back to Green Water Bay?"
Li Banfeng hesitated for a moment and said, "I want to go back, but I feel like I can't go back. I still feel like I haven't finished the matters at Iron Gate Fort yet.
They are honest people, but why should honest people be bullied? You take care of the affairs of Haichiling, why don’t you care about the affairs of Tiemenbao? "
The salesman laughed: "The famine in Haichiling was caused by Chong Kui. What kind of cultivation is Chong Kui? He attacks mortals. I can't ignore him.
What happened at Iron Gate Fort was caused by a group of liars. A group of liars with little cultivation deceived them. How do you want me to take care of it?
Zhou Anju relied on a large iron gate and cooperated with the grass bandits in Feiying Mountain to easily deceive these house builders for decades.
Go and ask those homesteaders, have they ever seen the bandits in Feiying Mountain? Do those thieves from Feiying Mountain dare to go to Iron Gate Fort?
Home repairmen are best at guarding their homes, let alone those thieves. Just let the Lu family, the most powerful in Puluo Prefecture, go over and ask them if they can defeat the Iron Gate Fort?
It's natural for homesteaders not to hear what's going on outside the window, but they are too outrageous. Even a cat or a dog barking twice can be regarded as a tiger by them.
If Zhou Anju comes today, he can deceive them. If Pei Anju comes tomorrow, can he still deceive them? Can I handle it? "
"You can't take care of it, and the Earth God doesn't care either?"
"Why does the land god care? As long as there are people on the land, isn't the liar a human being?"
Li Banfeng thought for a moment and asked, "Have you cheated on cultivating this Taoist sect?"
The salesman stared at Li Banfeng and said, "Are you asking about a foolish cultivator or a cheating cultivator? You must not have met a foolish cultivator, right?"
Li Banfeng shook his head repeatedly: "No, I heard that Yu Xiu has become extinct long ago."
"It's fine if you haven't encountered him. You must stay away from this Taoist sect."
Just remind me now...
Li Banfeng quickly changed the subject: "What I just said was cheating Xiu."
"What do you mean by cheating on cultivating this Taoism?" The salesman said in a profound tone, "If you say it exists, it really does exist. If you say it doesn't, it really doesn't exist."
"Can you be more straightforward?"
"This starts from the origin of deceiving cultivators. Back then, there was a liar in Puluo Prefecture. He claimed to be deceiving cultivators of the ninth level. He made up a set of origins and rhetoric for himself. Because cultivation is invisible, this set of rhetoric has deceived people. how many people,
Just ordinary people, even many famous families were deceived by him. He built a family business and established a large sect that has been in Puzhou for decades, and no one can expose him. "
"No one exposed it for decades?"
The salesman sighed: "He has three rules of practice, which are very remarkable.
First, as long as you don’t take action, your cultivation will be true.
Second, as long as the action is not seen, the cultivation level is also true.
The third is that it is seen, but others cannot understand it, and the cultivation level is still real.
For decades, 99% of people have been unable to see through these three methods. There are a very small number of people who have seen through these three methods after being deceived, but they cannot tell them. "
"Why can't you tell me?"
The salesman looked at Li Banfeng and said, "If you were a high-level cultivator and were deceived by a liar with no cultivation level, what would you say?
You will definitely say that I was fooled by his tricks by accident, otherwise where can you put your face? "
"If you know you have lost face, you should kill this liar!"
The peddler smiled bitterly and said, "It's not like this in the world. If you know you have been fooled, you still hope that others will be fooled again. Seeing others fooled makes you feel better. This is how people are."
Li Banfeng was speechless for a long time after hearing this.
The peddler continued, "Using these three rules, coupled with rhetoric, strategy, power, and mind, plus a group of helpers and various magic tools, it has become a unique Taoist sect.
You say he is not a Taoist sect. The practice rules of this liar are indeed effective, and the longer he practices, the more refined his tricks are.
You say he is a Taoist sect, but he has not yet achieved true cultivation, so it is hard to explain whether he is a liar. "
Li Banfeng was deeply touched.
It was earth-shattering when it was mentioned, and he had never seen it when asked. Li Banfeng found that Zhou Anju's cultivation was indeed not low. No wonder he could dominate Tiemenbao for decades.
The peddler stood up and said: "There are too many liars in this world, and some of them are even indistinguishable to me.
There is no paradise in this world. If you kill a castle lord, you will have to kill another one tomorrow. If the house repairers of Tiemenbao want to survive, they have to rely on themselves. "
Li Banfeng also stood up: "They should rely on themselves, but there should be someone to help them. This matter is not yet done. "
…
What the peddler said was right. Tiemenbao was selecting a new lord.
As an old subordinate of Lord Zhou, Ma Dingfu naturally became the next lord.
Wu Yongchao was a little unwilling. He had no interest in the position of lord, but he always felt that the death of Old Hu was related to Ma Dingfu.
Not only Old Hu, he even felt that the bandits in Feiying Mountain were related to Ma Dingfu.
But he could not provide any evidence, and other house repairmen did not care much about the lord's affairs. It seemed that Ma Dingfu was about to be the lord.
But what should he do? To make things legitimate, Ma Dingfu also wants to hold a banquet to confirm his status as the lord of the castle.
Late at night, Wu Yongchao was struggling whether to go to the banquet or not.
If he didn't go, he was afraid that he would be ostracized in the future. If he went, he would feel disgusted when he saw Ma Dingfu's face.
While struggling, he heard someone knocking on the door again.
Wu Yongchao opened the door mirror and found that it was the "peddler".
"Listen to my explanation first, your lord's business..."
"No need to explain, you come in first," Wu Yongchao immediately opened the door, "I believe you!"
With this sentence, things are much easier.
"Do you know where your lord lives?"
PS: It's not the honest man's fault that the honest man was deceived.
