"Master, you might not know me. I am Jiang Zhenggong, the leader of the Jiujiang Gang."
The old fisherman Jiang Zhenggong formally clasped his hands and bowed, announcing his true identity to Gao Zhengyang.
Jiang Zhenggong had been in the pugilistic world for his entire life. To be able to sit in the leader's position, he had experienced countless bloodshed and darkness. He only believed in martial arts and strategy.
Although Wukong, who was famous for his poems, had a great reputation, his cultivation was too low and could not enter his eyes.
However, the words "The stars hang over the plains, the moon surges over the great river" had changed Jiang Zhenggong's opinion. To be able to write such a magnificent and beautiful poem, his breadth of mind was definitely not ordinary.
After acknowledging Gao Zhengyang, Jiang Zhenggong took the initiative to reveal his identity.
Gao Zhengyang naturally knew who he was. Jiang Zhenggong taking the initiative to say his name was a form of respect. He clasped his hands together and returned the greeting. "Good, so it's Leader Jiang. I've heard of your name for a long time."
"I have an undeserved reputation." Jiang Zhenggong laughed and said politely. He was actually a little surprised. Gao Zhengyang's performance was too calm. This made Jiang Zhenggong think highly of Gao Zhengyang.
The Jiujiang Gang had been around for thousands of years. There were millions of gang members, including women, children, old, and young. It was the overlord of the Jiujiang Waters.
Whether it was the imperial court, the Dragon Subduing Courtyard, or the Celestial Master Mansion, these forces were all stronger than the Jiujiang Gang. But as long as they lived in the Jiujiang Waters, they would have to deal with the Jiujiang Gang.
The leader of the Jiujiang Gang, Jiang Zhenggong, stomped his feet and shook the surroundings. That was definitely not a boast. There were not many people who could remain calm after hearing his name.
"Although his cultivation is lacking, his tolerance is extraordinary. He is calm and steady. He is someone who can do great things. Maybe he will be able to soar into the sky if he has the chance! "
Jiang Zhenggong valued Gao Zhengyang more and more, and felt that it was not bad for him to be his son-in-law. Now that his thoughts had changed, he became more enthusiastic.
"Little Yi is my youngest daughter. Her name is Jiang Yue Yi. She is not young anymore, and she is usually gentle and virtuous. "
Little Yi was usually quite generous, but she could not help but blush when her father praised her for being gentle and virtuous in front of Gao Zhengyang. She knew that she was spoiled, but she was far from being gentle and virtuous.
Gao Zhengyang just smiled, it was not appropriate for him to reply.
"This monk doesn't have much interest in his girl!" Jiang Zhenggong was cunning and immediately saw through Gao Zhengyang's intentions.
If Gao Zhengyang was particularly enthusiastic, Jiang Zhenggong would have to be more attentive. But while Gao Zhengyang was not interested, Jiang Zhenggong was even more tempted.
However, this matter could not be rushed. Although Jiang Zhenggong had an idea, his old face did not change. The topic changed to the local customs of Jiujiang.
Jiang Zhenggong was experienced and knowledgeable. He also had an exceptional understanding of the Jiujiang waters. He spoke of these things as if they were his family treasures.
Gao Zhengyang listened quietly and occasionally chimed in. He was experienced and knowledgeable. Even if he casually agreed, he would still be able to get to the crux of the matter.
After chatting for a while, Jiang Zhenggong became more and more satisfied with Gao Zhengyang. This kind of chat was trivial and realistic. It was not a recitation, nor was it a poem. It was a test of one's knowledge and ability.
The experts in the gang were all arrogant and unruly. Although their martial arts were not bad, they were all cunning and ruthless, but they did not see the big picture.
It was fine to be a subordinate, but if he really became a gang leader, it would be very easy for him to capsize the big ship of the Jiujiang gang.
Jiang Zhenggong began to consider how to take Gao Zhengyang as his son-in-law. His buddhist identity was an obstacle, but it was also a kind of relationship. If he could make good use of this, the Jiujiang gang could also benefit from it.
"Goku came to the Dragon Subduing Academy to travel, not to learn spells, but to borrow the Dragon Eye Bodhi Mirror. This is not easy. When he is in trouble, I can reach out and help him, and he will be grateful … "
Jiang Zhenggong understood the Dragon Subduing Academy too well, and easily guessed the purpose of Gao Zhengyang's visit. With a thought, he came up with an idea. The smile on his old face became more and more brilliant.
Gao Zhengyang was also faintly aware of Jiang Zhenggong's thoughts, but he did not care.
Although the Jiujiang gang was powerful, it was still a local power. He was afraid that they did not even have a Stage Nine Ranker. With the arrival of the great calamity of the world, the original order would definitely collapse. The fate of a local power like the Jiujiang gang had long been determined. They would either be subdued by the Jiang Country or forcibly dispersed.
Although Jiang Zhenggong was quite knowledgeable, he was still limited in his vision. He could not imagine how terrifying the great calamity of the world was. He could not imagine how difficult the situation of the human race would become.
Moreover, the matter of the Jiujiang gang selling women had to be investigated clearly.
Gao Zhengyang had no intention of becoming friends with the Jiujiang gang.
Although the two of them had their own plans, on the surface, they were talking happily and amiably. Little Yi, who was at the side, was beaming with joy. Her dignified father was actually able to chat with Goku, which made her especially surprised and pleasantly surprised.
She did not dare to interrupt, and obediently pretended to be gentle at the side.
The little monk HP, who was sitting at the side, was especially nervous.
HP was a native of Jiujiang and knew how terrifying the Jiujiang gang was. When he thought of how rude he was to Little Yi just now, he still felt guilty.
If the other party wanted to take revenge on him, a single word would be enough to make his entire family die.
It was because of this reverence that HP sat there obediently, looking down at his feet, not daring to breathe loudly. He also admired Gao Zhengyang in his heart. To be able to chat and laugh with the Jiujiang gang leader, he was indeed worthy of being the world famous poet monk.
Just as HP was thinking, a strong wave of energy suddenly hit him in the face. He was caught off guard and was sent flying by the strong energy.
He was already extremely nervous, and when he encountered this sudden change, he could not help but cry out.
Seeing that HP was about to fall into the river, Gao Zhengyang waved his long sleeves and rolled HP back in midair, accurately placing him in his original position.
HP, who was sitting at his original position, immediately shut his mouth. His squarish black face was flushed with embarrassment.
HP grew up by the river and was very good at swimming. His martial arts foundation was also good. He would not drown if he fell into the water. Losing his composure in front of an expert like the Jiujiang gang leader, HP really wished he could fall into the river.
At this time, no one would care about HP. Everyone's gaze fell on Old Fish.
Old Fish, who had woken up, had lightning flickering in his old eyes. His old red and black face also had some warmth and luster. He was still the same person, but he exuded a tyrannical aura from inside out.
Old Fish had just entered Heaven Rank, and did not have perfect control over his power. He purposely restrained his aura, and only then did he barely suppress the strange phenomenon that his body revealed.
"Old Fish greets gang leader." Old Fish's gaze turned and saw Jiang Zhenggong. He hurriedly wanted to kneel down and greet him.
Jiang Zhenggong reached out to support Old Fish and smiled, "Old Fish, you have trained for a hundred years and finally reached Heaven Rank. Congratulations. "
Old Fish had followed Jiang Zhenggong since young and was also his confidant. Jiang Zhenggong was also sincerely happy that Old Fish had entered Heaven Rank.
Old Fish was also very excited to receive Jiang Zhenggong's praise.
"It is all thanks to gang leader's nurturing that Old Fish can reach where he is today. Otherwise, I would have been fed to the fish decades ago … "
Jiang Zhenggong said, "You are my old brother, you are treating me like an outsider …"
Old Fish looked especially excited, and repeatedly expressed his loyalty to Jiang Zhenggong.
Jiang Zhenggong encouraged him a few more times before saying, "Old Fish, you were able to break through thanks to Master Wukong's poem."
Old Fish hurriedly bowed to Gao Zhengyang and thanked him, "Thank you, Master, for enlightening me with a single sentence and allowing me to enter Heaven Rank. In the future, if Master needs anything, just say the word, this old man will definitely listen to you. "
His words were polite, and his attitude was also quite sincere. He did not get carried away just because he had entered Heaven Rank.
"This is all Old Benefactor's own accumulation, this poor monk does not dare to take credit …"
Gao Zhengyang said a few polite and modest words. He would not take this kind of verbal gratitude seriously. Moreover, he did not take it seriously at all. He recited the poem because he had a feeling, and did not mean to guide anyone.
Gao Zhengyang's modest and indifferent appearance also made Jiang Zhenggong secretly nod.
At this age, it was not easy to not fight for credit and not be in a hurry to steal the limelight. Especially when he was so famous, but he could be so modest. This was even more difficult.
"It's getting late, we have to go." Jiang Zhenggong said to Gao Zhengyang, "Master, we will meet again."
Old Fish had already woken up, and Jiang Zhenggong did not want to stay any longer. After saying a few polite words to Gao Zhengyang, he brought Little Yi and Old Fish and flew into the sky.
In the blink of an eye, their figures disappeared into the night sky.
The light boat that was not steered by anyone floated down with the current.
Fortunately, Hp was quick-witted and rushed to the rear cabin to hold the oars, so the boat did not capsize.
"These people just left us on the boat!" Hp could not help but complain.
Gao Zhengyang said indifferently, "You have become Heaven Rank in one leap, so naturally you can't steer the boat for us."
Hp's little face turned bitter, "Martial Uncle, I will row the boat, we can't go back even if the sun rises …"
"That can't be helped, I don't know how to row the boat." Gao Zhengyang said, "I can only trouble you."
Hearing this, Hp's face turned even uglier, but he could only accept his fate. He gritted his teeth and rowed with all his might.
The light boat swayed against the current, its speed not much faster than a crawling tortoise. When Gao Zhengyang and the rest returned to Crouching Dragon Peak, it was already noon.
The little monk Hp was so tired that he wanted to vomit blood, and did not even have the strength to stand up after getting off the boat. In the end, Gao Zhengyang found someone to carry him back to the Dragon Subduing Courtyard.
Gao Zhengyang did not return for the whole night, and Yuan Ming was also quite concerned. He did not directly ask Gao Zhengyang, so he called Hp to the room to ask about the situation.
Hp was Yuan Ming's disciple, and was arranged to stay by Gao Zhengyang's side to monitor his movements. Hp naturally did not hide anything, and told Yuan Ming everything he knew in detail.
"This Wukong is really worrisome. He went out for a trip, and actually colluded with Jiang Zhenggong …"
Yuan Ming sighed softly, Jiang Zhenggong this old fox, sinister and cunning. Wukong's matter was already difficult to deal with, and it would be even more troublesome if he got involved.
"You have to keep a close eye on Wukong, and immediately report to me if anything happens." Yuan Ming arranged.
Hp rowed for the whole night, and all the muscles in his body were about to split open. He did not dare to disobey the order, and could only grit his teeth and agree.
Fortunately, Gao Zhengyang did not go out. However, there were more people coming to visit.
Under Jiang Zhenggong's intentional dissemination, the poem written by Gao Zhengyang once again spread throughout Jiujiang City. Coupled with Jiang Zhenggong's strong praise, the poem's influence was even greater.
"The stars hang on the flat plains, the moon surges into the great river." The poem enlightened Old Fish, and the matter of him breaking through to Heaven Stage was even more widely spread. It simply became a legend.
This also made Gao Zhengyang's reputation a level higher. It attracted countless people's pursuit.
Yuan Ming, who was in charge of receiving guests, was even more distressed. On this day, it was unknown how many people sent him invitations, inviting Wukong to be a guest.
Each of these nobles had a strong background, and they all had a close relationship with the Dragon Subduing Courtyard. Yuan Ming did not dare to offend any of them. Helplessly, he could only find Yuan Tong to discuss.
In the side hall of the Vajra Buddha, Yuan Tong was also frowning and sighing. "This Wukong has only been in Jiujiang for a few days, but his name has already shaken the entire city. At this critical moment, Wukong has attracted everyone's attention! How troublesome … "
Yuan Ming said, "Wukong's poem enlightened a Heaven Stage expert. Now, many experts who are stuck at the threshold of Heaven Stage are going crazy. Why don't you think about it, this kind of thing is completely luck … "
"Jiujiang Gang is lucky. A Heaven Stage expert appeared out of thin air. " Yuan Tong was also a little envious. A poem and another Heaven Stage expert, why did such a good thing not fall into the Dragon Subduing Courtyard!
Yuan Tong continued, "However, last night, something big happened in Jiujiang Gang. Two Heaven Stage experts are missing! "
"Let Jiang Zhenggong worry about Jiujiang Gang. You have to keep an eye on Wukong now … "
Yuan Tong's eyes revealed a hint of killing intent, and said, "There are still seven days before the great ceremony, there must not be any problems! If there really is a problem with Wukong, then take care of him! "
