Among the group of young, half-grown children, there was a child who looked a little silly standing at the side. He was extremely conspicuous and out of place.
Hearing Jiang Laosan's question, the gang member sighed and said, "Third Brother, this child is called Zhang Xiaochen. He's also a pitiful person. Almost all the people who work in the transportation business are from the Nian Gang, but his father is stubborn. He said that the Nian Gang kills people and isn't good. He refused to join the Nian Gang.
Damn it! The Nian Gang kills people, but if you don't kill people, others will kill you. If you don't kill people, how can the Nian Gang take over these docks?
There was a time when our Nian Gang had a conflict with a small local family in Western Sichuan. His father also went to run the boat with us. At that time, the small family in Western Sichuan was unreasonable and wanted to attack first. They wanted to kill all of our people on the boat. His son's father foolishly ran out to stop them and was killed in the end. It was also because he stopped them that a few of our Nian Gang members managed to escape and seek help.
Although the child's father wasn't a member of the Nian Gang, his father died for the Nian Gang. Therefore, the Nian Gang started to support the mother and son.
Back then, when Hall Master Fang of the Lixia Hall found out about this, he wanted to take this kid as his godson. Unfortunately, this kid is like his father, stubborn. Because his father said that he can't join a gang in the future, he refused to join the Nian Gang even if he died.
However, the Nian Gang is one of the Seven Gangs, so we naturally have to be moral. Even if he doesn't join the Nian Gang, the Nian Gang can't ignore him. Therefore, we brought him here and have been supporting him.
However, because of this reason, the other kids in the gang are also isolating him and don't hang out with him. "
Jiang Laosan nodded in understanding, but didn't say much.
They were all in the underworld, and life and death were common. Moreover, the Nian Gang had done their best in this matter.
At this moment, a passenger boat stopped by the dock, and a few monks in monk robes walked out. They didn't look weak.
Jiang Laosan frowned. His subordinate asked curiously, "Recently, we've been seeing these monks in Jiangnan and Jiangbei."
Jiang Laosan snorted coldly, "They're all from the Buddhist Faction. Jiangnan is the ruler of the Imperial Heaven Region, and even Jiangbei is under their influence.
However, the Imperial Heaven Region offended the Lord Su of the Northwest Region and was slaughtered by the Lord Su. Therefore, the Buddhist Faction started to wander around these two places, probably to recruit disciples.
But this group of monks is too meddlesome. Our brothers from the Nian Gang have been taught a lesson by them several times, but we don't dare to say anything. After all, they have strong practitioners in the Reaching Heaven State behind them.
Forget it, I don't care so much. Let's just get to work. The matters of those big shots aren't something small characters like us can interfere with. "
As he spoke, Jiang Laosan took out a lotus seed and handed it to the subordinate, saying, "Take this and test those kids. See if there's anything that can make this lotus seed glow. Be careful. This is given by a Reaching Heaven State expert. If you break it, you can't even afford to pay for it with your life!"
The subordinate took a look at the lotus seed and mumbled, "Isn't this an ordinary lotus seed? But it does have a refreshing fragrance. "
Jiang Laosan slapped him and scolded, "What do you know about the high-level stuff given by a Reaching Heaven State expert? Stop dawdling. Hurry up and go! "
The warrior shrunk his head and obediently went to try out the lotus seeds one by one. But at this time, a youth was a little nervous and lost his grip on the lotus seed. The lotus seed fell to the ground and rolled all the way to Zhang Xiaochen's feet, where he picked it up.
Seeing this, the subordinate panicked and said, "Boy, this isn't food!"
He was afraid that Zhang Xiaochen didn't know what was going on and would chew the lotus seed as a snack.
Fortunately, although Zhang Xiaochen looked silly, he was just not good at communicating. Hearing that, he just picked up the lotus seed and handed it to the subordinate.
However, at this moment, the lotus seed in his hand emitted a faint green light. In an instant, a tranquil energy descended, causing everyone's mind to feel as if it had been cleansed. Everyone looked at the lotus seed with a strange look in their eyes. They even forgot who they were and what they wanted to do at this moment. It was as if their minds had been completely cleansed by the faint light.
At this moment, the monks not far away from them revealed a trace of shock in their eyes.
"Inborn Zen Heart! This kid's mind is pure and flawless. He has a heart of innocence and is most suitable to practice the teachings and techniques of our Buddhism Sect.
In the future, if he studies Buddhism, he will definitely become a great master. If he learns martial arts, he can also practice some of our obscure Buddhism Sect's techniques to the extreme!
This kid is fated with our Buddhism Sect! This is a great opportunity! "
After recovering from their shock, the Buddhist cultivators immediately revealed ecstasy in their hearts.
They had traveled thousands of miles to Jiangnan and Jiangbei, places that the Buddhism Sect had never been involved in, in order to help the Buddhism Sect select disciples. In the end, they didn't expect to find such a good seedling as soon as they arrived in Jiangbei.
At this moment, the monks couldn't help but walk toward Zhang Xiaochen. To them, as long as they could bring this kid back to Spirited Mountain, it would be more precious than bringing back a few hundred talented disciples.
At this moment, Jiang Laosan also came to his senses. He looked excited.
The Nian Gang wanted to rely on a disciple to form a relationship with an Ascension Heaven State expert, and he had found someone who met the requirements. In this way, how much credit did he have?
At least Jiang Laosan knew that he probably wouldn't be able to become a small leader in the future!
However, just as he was about to take action, the monks from before suddenly walked over and said to Zhang Xiaochen kindly, "Young almsgiver, where are your parents? Are you willing to follow us back to Spirited Mountain and join our Buddhism Sect? "
Zhang Xiaochen's reaction seemed to be naturally slower than others. He only reacted after the monks were done with their questions. He said slowly, "My father is gone, and my mother is working in a restaurant in the state capital. Also, why should I join the Buddhism Sect? Can I eat meat every day after joining the Buddhism Sect? "
The few people standing beside Zhang Xiaochen looked at him as if they were looking at a fool. How could a monk eat meat? If they didn't know that he was really stupid, these people might have thought that Zhang Xiaochen was mocking the monks in the dark.
However, the leading monk laughed and said, "Don't worry. As long as you join the Buddhism Sect, you'll have plenty of meat, but there won't be any wine. You can eat whatever you want then."
Zhang Xiaochen raised his head and asked, "Is the Buddhism Sect a gang? My father told me not to join a gang. "
The monk laughed and said, "The Buddhism Sect is a peaceful place on Spirited Mountain. How can it be a foul place like a gang?"
Before Zhang Xiaochen could say anything, Jiang Laosan came over with many members of the Nian Gang with a gloomy face. He snorted and said, "Big monk, what foul place are you talking about? Do you know what kind of place this is? You're saying that the Nian Gang is foul in our territory. Are you courting death?
Also, this kid is a member of the Nian Gang. Have you asked for our permission before taking him away? "
When Jiang Laosan saw that the monk wanted to take Zhang Xiaochen away, he immediately panicked.
This was a disciple wanted by an expert of the Reaching Heaven State. Moreover, he was also a bargaining chip for the Nian Gang to build connections with the expert of the Reaching Heaven State. If he were to be taken away under his watch, he wouldn't just get a reward. Instead, his Gang Leader would probably want to kill him.
Although Jiang Laosan was a small figure, he also had his own wisdom. Although he didn't know who was stronger between the Buddhism Sect and the Reaching Heaven State expert behind him, the person who helped Shi Daoxuan find a disciple was Lord Su of the Northwest Path. No matter what, two Reaching Heaven State experts together would be stronger than one. Therefore, he really didn't care about the Buddhism Sect.
The leading monk glanced at Jiang Laosan and sneered, "Isn't a lowly gang full of foul air? Moreover, this kid said just now that his father doesn't allow him to join a gang. When did he become a member of the Nian Gang? "
Jiang Laosan was speechless for a moment, but then he said coldly, "This kid was raised by the Nian Gang. Why isn't he a member of the Nian Gang? Anyway, it's impossible for you to take him away here today! "
As he spoke, Jiang Laosan waved his hand, and immediately, more than a thousand people surrounded them.
This dock was the territory of the Nian Gang. Ninety-nine percent of the workers and boat operators were members of the Nian Gang. Although most of them didn't know martial arts and only knew some basic Jianghu skills, with so many of them gathered together, their aura was stronger than that of the monks.
Jiang Laosan pulled out a dagger from behind his waist and sneered, "If I let you take him away today, I won't have the face to stay in the Nian Gang!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he directly stabbed the leading monk with the dagger. His attack was fast and accurate, but it was a pity that he didn't have any moves to speak of.
The leading monk sneered and directly used the Little Thousand Leaves Hand of the Shaolin Temple to snatch the dagger away. Then, he punched Jiang Laosan in the chest. Earth Energy exploded and directly shattered Jiang Laosan's clothes, leaving a deep fist mark on his chest. Jiang Laosan vomited blood and retreated a few steps.
"A Xiantian Realm warrior!"
Jiang Laosan's eyes revealed a trace of horror. The other party was actually at the Xiantian Realm. No wonder he couldn't even block a single move from the other party.
But then, Jiang Laosan's eyes revealed a trace of ruthlessness. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said fiercely, "So what if you're a Xiantian Realm warrior? So what if you're a Buddhist monk? Come, come, come. If you have the ability, you can f * cking kill all of us. If I even frown, I'll change my surname to yours! "
As he spoke, the members of the Thousand Year Gang gathered with fierce expressions. Even though they knew that the monks in front of them were all Xiantian Realm warriors, they didn't show any fear.
