"I have a bad feeling that I'm going to be a stud horse soon …"
Wu Ming went out for some fresh air. He felt a little depressed as he rode on his horse.
However, he knew that once Wu Zhi stepped onto the stage, he couldn't marry someone of the same social status. Otherwise, if the husband's family was too strong, everything would go to waste.
The current Wu family was just right.
Although he was a local tyrant in a small county, he wasn't a commoner either. Moreover, he could rope in Wu Qing, who was expected to be a Perfected Cultivator. It was really killing two birds with one stone.
Such a woman obviously wouldn't attach much importance to her marriage. Instead, she would definitely use it as a bargaining chip!
"Damn it, damn it … I was laughing at the unlucky guy who became her son-in-law. I didn't expect it to be my turn …"
Wu Ming murmured.
"Brother Wu Ming, what are you talking about?"
Chen Shuncheng, who was riding on top of a horse, suddenly asked.
"Nothing …"
Wu Ming smiled. The two groups of people had gotten to know each other along the way. Although Chen Shuncheng had thick eyebrows and big eyes, he was indeed a man of wisdom. He was also proficient in the art of war. However, he was still a young man after all. Thus, the cunning Wu Ming managed to get some information out of him.
"The descendant of a family of generals, the successor of the Military School. This time, he saw the opportunity and came to the two counties to seek an official position. However, his ending was also unexpected. He could only wander around and was finally recruited by Wu Zhi?
"He has just been recruited. This time, he has to prove his loyalty …"
However, he was clear that the Dazhou world was in a state of chaos. There were fewer scholars traveling around the world. However, the other Hundred Schools of Unorthodox Schools were flourishing. Hundreds of Schools of Unorthodox Schools were contending with each other. Learning the arts and martial arts was the mainstream way of thinking.
"Speaking of which … these two uncles and nephews were also tricked by me. Otherwise, if the war continued, the disciples of the Military School would have a place to use their skills."
Wu Ming was speechless again. He knew that his previous plan had affected the fate of many people.
…
Nanfeng County was located to the south of Chu Feng County. The scenery was picturesque.
After arriving at the county, Chen Jingzong didn't enter the city. Instead, he sent out a signal and waited in the wilderness.
Tap tap!
Less than an hour later, more than twenty riders galloped over. They didn't have any markings on their bodies, but their vigorous temperament couldn't be concealed.
"I'm Chou Yi, here to listen to Mr. Chen's instructions!"
The leading knight waved his hand, and the twenty riders immediately stopped. Their movements were neat and uniform, with a sense of strict obedience.
The first person, after verifying his identity, immediately bowed and said.
"Hmm … Have you brought the information I asked for?"
At this time, Chen Jingzong did not have the previous air of hardships. His face was full of dignity, as if he was a general giving orders.
"I've brought it!"
Chou Yi took out the yellow bamboo tube sealed with wax on his back and held it up with both hands.
Chen Jingzong tore off the wax seal and saw that the bamboo tube was stuffed with a thick stack of scrolls. The scrolls were densely packed with names, time of activity, strength evaluation, and so on. It was extremely detailed.
"Mm, very good!"
Chen Jingzong nodded his head inwardly. He knew that Wu Zhi controlled a lot of power in the Nanfeng County.
This was normal. Otherwise, why would he be so determined to side with them?
He then looked at Wu Ming and his brother. "Between the Dark Sky Pavilion and the Black Tiger Gang, which one do you intend to choose?"
"As you wish!"
Wu Qing seemed to be relieved. On the other hand, Wu Ming received the information. Although the two gangs were quite powerful, as the young master of the Wu Clan, it was already the limit for him to recruit a Level 2 martial artist. He could not help but let out a sigh of relief. "I knew it … Wu Zhi wants to change her fate after she becomes a Perfected One. It seems like it's not that difficult …"
"If that's the case … What about the Black Tiger Gang? We can choose half of the twenty riders here! "
Chen Jingzong frowned and said with a smile.
"There's no need for that! Just send someone to lead the way! "
Wu Qing pointed and said, "Hurry up and catch up!"
"Sigh …"
With such a sister, Wu Ming could only sigh in his heart and catch up with the other rider.
Looking at their backs, Chen Shuncheng was a little surprised. "Uncle, why not?"
"They are the lady's good friends. If they really work together, what about the credit? Also, what if they forcefully command us? "
Chen Jingzong said calmly, "This is the first time we work for the main family. Not only do we have to succeed, we have to do it well. Most importantly, we can't let anyone look down on us!"
He then looked at Chou Yi and the rest of the riders. "I won't say much. As long as we do this well, the main family will definitely reward us. However, if anyone slacks off and doesn't listen to orders …"
Bam!
Chen Shuncheng immediately stomped his foot and a deep pit appeared on the ground.
Mud splattered everywhere and the faint tremor caused the rest of the riders to turn pale.
"Don't worry, Mr. Chen. We will not make any mistakes. Otherwise, I will be the first to kill him!" Chou Yi's face twitched as he stood out and promised.
"Alright! Then, report your names and abilities. You will be divided into three teams with five people each. The first team will be … "
Chen Jingzong used the carrot and stick method to subdue these people. After that, he immediately assigned tasks to them. Chen Shuncheng who was standing next to him was quite excited to see this.
"The key to this attack is to be as fast as lightning! Catch them off guard! Get on your horses now! "
Chen Jingzong ordered.
"Yes, sir!"
More than ten riders immediately got on their horses and galloped away.
"Uncle …"
Chen Shuncheng fell behind. He wanted to say something but hesitated. "If we do this, I'm afraid we can only rely on the daughter of the Wu family … She is just a woman …"
"Of course I know that she is just a woman …"
Chen Jingzong smiled and said, "You have always felt indignant. Why did you reject so many offers and join the Wu family's daughter? Am I right? "
"Although this woman has lofty aspirations, she is still a woman after all …"
Chen Shuncheng saw that there was no one around and finally said what he was thinking, "I am a man …"
"Silence!"
Chen Jingzong's face turned serious. Seeing his nephew like this, he sighed in his heart and could only explain, "Before I came here, I specially asked a good friend who is good at fortune-telling. According to him, the Phoenix Qi accumulated in the Chu Feng County and Nan Feng County has already reached a stage where it will soar. There will definitely be a noble lady descending …"
"But … Even so …"
Chen Shuncheng naturally knew that Wu Zhi was most likely a noble lady descending into the world. Suddenly, he thought of something and said, "Could it be that Uncle wants to … use this as a springboard to rely on …"
"That's right!"
Chen Jingzong had a comforted look on his face. "How can an ordinary person enjoy a daughter of the Feng Family? It can only be a dragon! At that time, we will be trusted generals of the Wu family. With the help of the mistress, we will have a solid foundation … "
"Even if our plan fails, this woman is still a daughter of the Wu family. If something happens to Nan Feng County, how can we not help?"
Hearing this, Chen Shuncheng had a speechless expression.
In the past, he thought that he had understood the essence of the military and would do anything to achieve his goal. But now, it seemed that compared to his uncle, he was still lacking in shamelessness.
…
"The headquarters of the Black Tiger Gang is located in the county capital. There are thousands of gang members and over a hundred core disciples. They control all the docks and relay stations. Every year, they pay tens of thousands of gold and silver to the second young master of the Wu family …"
"The current leader of the Black Tiger Gang is called Wei Zhuo. His nickname is the 'Tablet Pushing Hand'. He is a martial artist of the Extreme Transformation level of the Physical Body Realm! There are four great warriors under him. Each of them is a martial artist of the Innate Stage. There is also a military advisor named Feng Weixing who is extremely trusted. He gives advice and plans and is the most trusted of trusted men … "
After entering the county capital, the rider, Wu Ming and his sister went to a restaurant and booked a private room.
Opposite the restaurant was a big house. There were two strong men guarding the front. The security was quite tight.
He first explained the basic situation and then asked, "What are the two of you going to do? We have also arranged some people to ambush here … "
"The more you do, the more mistakes you make. It is easier to leave clues and flaws!"
Wu Ming got up and took out a thin piece of yellow leather from his bosom to cover his face.
In an instant, he turned from a teenager to a sallow looking young man.
"A human skin mask?"
The rider's face was filled with awe. This kind of thing was only a legend in the pugilistic world. He did not expect to see it in real life.
"Sister, wait here for a moment. I will go and stretch my muscles. I will be right back!"
Wu Ming said casually. He supported himself on the windowsill and jumped out like a cat without making a sound.
Previously in the World of Gods and Ghosts, he had killed many Reincarnators. He did not get any treasures, but he did get a lot of miscellaneous things. They were all stored in the Heavenly Designer Ring.
This human skin mask was obtained from the Nine-Tailed Blood Crystal. Because of its exquisite workmanship, it was quite breathable when stuck to the skin. It left a deep impression on him and he kept it. It was the right time to use it now.
He purposely turned to the back alley and then to the main street. The current Wu Ming did not seem to be worth paying attention to at all.
However, he still felt a little sad in his heart.
Not for himself, but for the uncle and nephew just now.
With his shrewdness, he naturally could not hide the other party's intentions.
However, the uncle and nephew, who were only Level Two, had to lower themselves to serve the power and be a knife. Outside the system, there were many people who wanted to be a knife but could not.
"There are so many beauties in the world, attracting countless heroes to bow down to them …"
Wu Ming sighed softly, but a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. "It's just that … I am also a commoner!"
He came to the door of the Black Tiger Gang's headquarters and rushed in without hesitation.
"Stop, what are you doing?"
A man immediately stepped forward, his face full of vigilance.
The other, however, reached for the short stick at his waist out of habit.
After all, this was a county city. An ordinary person would not have the guts to carry a knife on the streets. Not to mention that the Black Tiger Gang was only a small local organization, not a privileged class of officials.
However, when the man who had just stepped forward touched Wu Ming, he was instantly stunned and rooted to the spot.
"What's wrong?"
The man who was holding the short stick was shocked. Immediately, he felt a very subtle cold air penetrate through his waist and he could not move at all.
