Chapter 727 Casino Storm (Part 2)
"You."
Xiang Gui, who was about to take revenge for his son, froze immediately after seeing all his men in the hall fall. The guards of the other casinos were fine, after all, their martial arts were not very good, so they were killed in one go, but the key was the four personal guards behind him, but he personally selected and trained them, even if he took action himself, it would be impossible to kill these four people in an instant.
More importantly, if the four personal guards behind him had not fallen, he would not even know that the four people died. In other words, if Shen Fei had taken action against him, he would probably be dead now.
Although Xiang Gui is one of the four masters under the command of Yan Kang, the current leader of the Baling Gang, he is actually the weakest martial artist. The reason why he can occupy the position of one of the four masters is mainly due to the status of his Xiang family.
Originally, Xiang Gui planned to attack Shen Fei first. If the situation was chaotic, he might be able to lead Du Fuwei and Shen Luoyan to attack together. After all, Shen Fei had ridiculed Li Mi in his previous words. As a military advisor under Li Mi, Shen Luoyan must hate Shen Fei very much.
As for Du Fuwei, it was naturally because of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling. Xiang Gui's martial arts were not very good, but in terms of vision, he still had some level. The Xiang family was able to thrive, not relying on martial arts.
I didn't see Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling improve so much later, but they almost overturned several times against Xiang Yushan, and they didn't kill him until the end.
But unfortunately, Shen Fei's crisp and neat attack directly caused the plan in his mind to die.
After all, Xiang Gui's martial arts were not high, and it was difficult to imagine what a real strong man would look like. Even if he had connections with the Demon Sect, he was at the bottom and had never seen the strong men of the Demon Sect attack.
In Xianggui's opinion, no matter how high Shen Fei's martial arts skills were, he could not be stronger than Du Fuwei, a master.
Shen Fei's sudden attack made Xianggui's body freeze directly, and there was no reaction for a long time. After Xiang Yushan saw the situation around him, his screams stopped immediately. It must be said that human potential is really great. Under the threat of death, Xiang Yushan, who was so afraid of death, could endure the severe pain of blinding one eye.
"Good technique." Du Fuwei glanced at the dead guards, and his eyes could not help but condense. He was the most skilled martial artist present, so he could see the horror of Shen Fei's attack. If Shen Fei had thrown Pai Gow at him just now, Du Fuwei asked himself that it would be difficult to dodge at such a close distance.
With just this attack, Du Fuwei had already regarded Shen Fei as a rare enemy. Therefore, when Du Fuwei was talking, the arm guard in his sleeve unconsciously came to his wrist. Du Fuwei, who was full of martial arts, had half of his martial arts skills on his arm guards.
"Master Du, you are too polite. It's just a trick." When Shen Fei was talking, the Pai Gow on the table moved casually with his fingers.
To be honest, Shen Fei didn't understand Pai Gow at all, because he played Pai Gow as Mahjong, and learned the gambling skills he saw in the TV series in his previous life to play with his heart's content. Pai Gow kept changing in various forms in his hands.
"Master Du, your Jianghuai Army will never become a big thing anyway. Are you interested in joining me?" After seeing Xiang Yushan and Xiang Gui staying there honestly without making any sound, Shen Fei temporarily ignored his interest. It was natural that he had to recruit Du Fuwei when he saw him here.
Du Fuwei's Jianghuai Army is now quite powerful among the major righteous armies. After all, it just defeated the Sui Army and occupied Liyang some time ago. It can be said that its momentum is only lower than that of the current Wagangzhai. However, probably because Du Fuwei was a gangster before, the Jianghuai Army did not have any strict military rules and discipline.
In the short term, there was no problem because of Du Fuwei's strength and prestige, but that was the limit. Unless the Jianghuai Army stopped expanding its territory, as long as it continued to expand its territory, something would happen sooner or later. It can be said that the Jianghuai Army was not a material for competing for the world.
Li Jing saw this situation, so he directly betrayed Du Fuwei and joined the Li family.
Although Du Fuwei explained that he could establish his character only after making money, the Jianghuai Army was in urgent need of expansion, and there was no one to support him. Once strict military discipline and regulations were formulated, not to mention whether those who had been unscrupulous before would abide by them, the logistics alone would be enough to give Du Fuwei a headache.
Wars are fought on logistics, even if it is the righteous army. The reason why Wagangzhai could have such a big momentum was that before that, Wagangzhai seized the granary of the Sui Dynasty and had a large amount of supplies.
But there was no such good thing on the Jianghuai Army side. If they did not constrain military regulations and discipline, they could still rob to make up for the consumption, but if they constrained military regulations and discipline, they would not be able to rob.
This is why the power and momentum of the noble families overwhelmed the early rebels as soon as they left the stage. They had both people and money.
For ordinary people, they didn't care who was the emperor, as long as they could survive. Compared with the Li family and the Jianghuai army, it's easy to imagine who the people would turn to.
Du Fuwei's idea was indeed good, but he overlooked a problem, that is, because there was no military discipline for a long time, if it was suddenly formulated, his subordinates might not be able to accept it.
It is very difficult to make a group of unscrupulous people accustomed to being restrained, just like what the dragon in the pirate world did to those people who were fighting for supplies in the garbage dump at the terminal of uncertain things. When there is no way to slowly teach and appease them over time, they can only be sent to die.
"If you want me, Du Fuwei, to surrender to you, it depends on your strength." Du Fuwei began to concentrate his mind and energy, ready to take action. At this time, in his eyes, he had temporarily forgotten about Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling. With a strong enemy in front of him, it is naturally necessary to restrain his mind.
"The scenery here is so beautiful, why is General Manager Du so irritable? Fighting for hegemony is not a fight between rivers and lakes. If we have to judge by martial arts, then what are we fighting for? Just set up a ring and let everyone go up to compete in martial arts. Even if I defeat you here, will the Jianghuai Army really surrender to me? And even if they really surrender to me, I won't accept them now."
Looking at Du Fuwei standing up, Shen Fei immediately shook his head and said that martial arts are indeed very important in the fight for hegemony, but they are not the most important. Otherwise, the whole world can be peaceful if those great masters fight.
Song Que's martial arts are so strong that even Ning Daoqi, if Song Que really wants to kill him, can kill him on the premise of being seriously injured, but in the end he still has to succumb to reality.
Just as Shen Fei said before, he would not want the current Jianghuai Army even if he was given it. To put it bluntly, it is easier for him to pull a troop from scratch than to accept the Jianghuai Army and formulate strict military discipline and regulations.
"General Manager Du, why are you angry over there? Isn't this something that everyone knows?" Shen Luoyan suddenly said with a smile. If it were normal, Shen Luoyan would not provoke Du Fuwei like this. Although he looked down on Du Fuwei, there was no need to make enemies. But now that Shen Fei has started it, and Du Fuwei had also blackened Li Mi before, Shen Luoyan would naturally fight back.
"Humph." Du Fuwei looked at Shen Luoyan, snorted coldly, and sat down again. If it were any other time, Du Fuwei would kill the conversation without saying a word for someone provocative like Shen Fei. Not everyone can get the same treatment as Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling.
But who made Shen Fei's origin mysterious and his tone so loud? Out of curiosity, Du Fuwei also resisted the urge to leave. Being able to pull up a powerful righteous army, Du Fuwei is naturally not an impulsive person.
It's just that his luck is not very good. Because of his background, no one bets on him. None of the four major clans like Jianghuai Army, that is, the Demon Sect has laid a chess piece.
"Mr. Shen, forgive me for being blunt, but I have never heard of the Taoist Tianzong. I would like to hear more about it." Shen Luoyan couldn't help but look at Xiang Yushan, who was covering his eyes and enduring the pain.
To be honest, Shen Luoyan wanted to say the same thing in her heart, but considering that Shen Fei had been ruthless before, Shen Luoyan changed to a polite way of saying it.
"No problem, but before that, shouldn't we welcome new guests?" Shen Fei said and shouted to the outside of the door: "Since you are here, come in. I am in a good mood today. Except for the Baling Gang, a group of human traffickers who deserve to die, I will not attack anyone else."
Shen Fei's words explained why he was ruthless to Xiang Yushan, Xiang Gui, and the Baling Gang. Once this was said, Ren Meimei of the Pengliang Society on the side was greatly relieved. Although the Pengliang Society was not a decent gang, it had a much better reputation than the Baling Gang.
Speaking of the Eight Gangs and Ten Associations, most people are very afraid of them, but as long as you reach a certain level, you will know that the so-called Eight Gangs and Ten Associations are all backed by someone.
For example, the Baling Gang is said to be related to Yang Guang, the Haisha Gang is backed by the Yuwen Clan, the Jukun Gang is backed by the Dugu Clan, the Shuilong Gang is backed by the Song Clan, and there are other demon sects, other aristocratic families, etc.
"I am also a little curious about the fact that they can look down on the Demon Sect, the sect of Cihang Jingzhai, and the Taoist Tianzong." As a charming voice sounded, six women with different looks walked in from outside the door one after another.
The leader was a woman with a scarf covering her face, luxurious clothes, and a hint of grace. Behind her was a young woman with black and shiny hair and a fair complexion that looked like jade bones and ice skin, extremely moving.
Although she was dressed as a man, her appearance and beauty even surpassed Shen Luoyan on the side. You know, Shen Luoyan is a rare beauty in this world.
If we simply look at the appearance, the person who came is second only to Shang Xiuxun. Such a beauty made Shen Luoyan frown, after all, she was compared to her.
Behind these two people stood four women of different heights, weights and skinny. Their appearance was too mediocre compared to the two in front. Judging from the positions of these four people, they should be guards.
"It turned out to be Madam Dongming of Dongming Sect. She is really a rare guest." Du Fuwei recognized the leader in an instant.
"Meetings, Chief Steward Du."
The person who came was Madam Dongming Shan Meixian of Dongming Sect. Next to her was her daughter, Princess Dongming Shan Wanjing. The four women behind were the four guardian fairies of Dongming Sect. It must be said that Madam Dongming was very thoughtful when choosing guardians.
After Shan Wanjing saluted Du Fuwei, she glared at Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling. Probably because her mother was on the side, Shan Wanjing did not say anything.
Seeing the arrival of Madam Dongming from Dongming Sect, Ren Meimei immediately stood up and gave her seat to Dongming Sect. She walked aside cautiously with two men beside her. Because Shen Fei did not speak, Ren Meimei did not dare to leave. Of course, Ren Meimei was also very interested in what the people present were about to say.
"If you want me to respect you, you must have the qualifications to be respected by me. The sect founded by these two wastes, Tianseng and Di Ni, what qualifications do you have to be respected by my Taoist Tianzong? If you want to be respected by our Taoist Tianzong, you must meet one condition." Shen Fei said with a mocking smile.
Fortunately, although he did not finish reading The Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty, he was very curious about the Four Great Books and collected some relevant information, which happened to be used this time.
Although strictly speaking, Tianseng and Di Ni are naturally not wastes. After all, they are also the founders of a sect and founded the Cihang Sword Canon, which is included in the Four Great Books. However, for Shen Fei, for future plans, he naturally has to belittle them to the utmost.
If this is the case with the Taoists or the Demon Sect, perhaps one or two people who have broken the void may come out to oppose him, but unfortunately, Cihang Jingzhai and Jingnian Zen Temple have not had masters of the level of breaking the void since their founding.
That is, they were praised as breaking the void in their respective sects, but in fact, the two of them were just forced to close the door, and not every person who closed the door was the supreme master Ling Donglai.
Shi Feixuan relied on a spiritual love affair with Xu Ziling to make her swordsmanship reach the level of sword heart clarity. Her aptitude is very strong, but it is still inferior to Duanmu Lin and Qin Mengyao who came later.
The only thing that Shen Fei admires about Cihang Jingzhai is the beauties they produce. Basically, they are connected with the influential figures of each era. It must be said that in terms of public relations, Cihang Jingzhai is very powerful. If placed in modern society, it is definitely a first-class public relations company.
The secrets that Shen Fei told shocked everyone present. Except for Dongming Madam Shan Meixian, it was the first time for others to hear about the founder of Cihang Jingzhai and Jingnian Zen. After a long silence, Shan Meixian suddenly spoke.
"I wonder what conditions need to be met?" As soon as this question came out, Du Fuwei, Shen Luoyan, including Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling and others couldn't help but look at Shen Fei.
"It's very simple, at least one master of breaking the void appears in the sect."
"A master of breaking the void, is it a realm above the grandmaster?" Kou Zhong couldn't help but ask immediately. Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling already knew about the grandmaster, but for breaking the void, let alone the two of them, even Du Fuwei didn't know much.
"Yes, the grandmaster goes one step further, that is, breaking the void, in other words, it is to ascend in broad daylight." Shen Fei said softly.
"Ascending in broad daylight, wouldn't that be an immortal." Xu Ziling couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Xu Ziling, you have to remember one thing, that is, the so-called immortals are just people with stronger strength, and the same is true for the so-called Buddhas."
Since he is here, Xu Ziling, such an excellent seedling of Taoism, naturally cannot be led to Buddhism by Shi Feixuan and others.
