Starting from the imperial palace guards, his clones spread all over the world.

Chapter 279 Negotiations on a Rainy Night
the next day.

Before dawn.

Liang Jin and his group had already arrived at the dock outside Qingzhou City.

A large river flows past Qingzhou City and stretches into the distance.

This river is called Xuan River, and it spans most of the Daqian Dynasty.

The Xuan River has well-developed water transportation, with many ships sailing on the river day and night.

It is faster to take a boat from Xuanhe to Minzhou.

Liang Jin was going to have a decisive battle with the leader of Senluo Sect in two days, so he chose to take the water route to Minzhou.

He didn't bring many people with him on this trip.

He only brought Jiang Lengxue, Lu Qiannan and Miao Yuanzheng.

In addition, Liang Jin also called Zhao Bao.

And this time Liang's whereabouts were secret. Before even dawn, everyone had already arrived at the dock, ready to set off.

The five people boarded the boat and were about to set off.

Suddenly, a voice was heard:
"Boatman! Wait a minute!"

Everyone went out looking for fame.

I saw a figure running towards this side from the foot of Qingzhou City in the distance.

At this time, the scene of countless disaster victims gathering under Qingzhou City was no longer there.

As the Taiping Dao distributed talismans and water widely, most of the victims chose to return home after their illnesses were cured.

Up to now, there are probably only a few hundred disaster victims still under Qingzhou City.

This figure was running from the gathering place of disaster victims and was obviously one of the victims.

Stay close.

Only then did everyone see clearly that the person coming was a man carrying a white-haired old woman on his back.

Although the man was carrying someone on his back, he ran very fast.

In just a few blinks of an eye, he had already run to the dock.

"This man is a warrior!"

Seeing this, Miao Yuanzheng couldn't help but reach for the Lengyue sword on his back.

Liang Jin waved his hand, signaling Miao Yuanzheng not to be so nervous.

Of course, he could also see that the man was a warrior.

Especially, he is a warrior at the fifth level!
At this moment, the man was asking the boatman:

"Boatman, can you give us a ride?"

"Just tell me how much you want. If the money is not enough, I can work for you."

The boatmen frowned and were about to refuse.

Liang Jin said:

"We are going to Minzhou. If it's on our way, we can give you a ride."

The man was delighted when he heard this:

"On my way! On my way!"

"We are going to Minzhou!"

Immediately, the man carried the old woman onto the boat.

The boatman pushed the pole and the boat left the dock and went downstream along the river.

The man carried the old woman into the cabin and carefully placed her down.

He raised his head and was about to ask for some food.

But when the man saw the people in the cabin clearly, he was stunned.

Although everyone on the boat was wearing casual clothes, the man still recognized two of them.

One is Lu Qiannan, the other is Miao Yuanzheng.

These two people are high-ranking members of the Taiping Dao. They often show up when distributing talisman water, and most of the victims recognize these two faces.

The man didn't expect that after he had finally stopped a boat, it turned out to be a Taiping Dao boat.

The man immediately apologized:

"sorry Sorry!"

"I'm on the wrong boat. We can pull the boat to the shore and get off on our own."

When this man saw Lu Qiannan and Miao Yuanzheng being respectful to Liang Jin, how could he not know Liang Jin's identity?
He was a great and virtuous teacher, whom he could not afford to offend.

The old woman was surprised:
"Son, he's a kind person who gave us a ride, how can you say such things?"

The man said in a low and solemn voice:
"Mom, if I'm not mistaken, this person is probably... the Great Sage Teacher!"

"We'd better not take their boat."

The white-haired old woman was stunned when she heard this and looked at Liang Jin in surprise.

Then, she hurriedly and tremblingly bowed to Liang Jin.

Liang Jin raised his hand lightly, and a surge of internal force came into being, holding the old woman firmly so that she could not bow down.

"Old man, there is no need to do this."

"Curing illnesses and saving lives is Huang Tian's will, and it's what I should do."

Liang Jin spoke.

He could see some tiny scars on the old woman's face that were healing and forming scabs.

This kind of scar often appears on the face of people who have just recovered from the plague. It is the remaining mark after the pustules have subsided.

This made Liang Jin realize that the old woman must have drunk the talisman water from the Taiping Dao, so this bow was to express her gratitude for saving her life.

The old woman could not bow any further and could only express her gratitude:
"The Great and Good Teacher is such a good person!"

"Not only did you save me, you also saved millions of people!"

"If it weren't for you, I don't know how many people would have died!"

Liang Jin smiled and signaled the boatman to give the old woman and the man some food.

This made the mother and son feel grateful again.

It's getting daylight.

The thick fog on the river gradually dissipated.

Liang Jin walked out of the cabin and could see the rest of the merchant ships on the wide river.

The ship keeps moving forward.

By evening, the ship had left Qingzhou and entered Minzhou.

…………

"Crash!"

It rained again at night in Qingzhou.

It is said that spring rain is as precious as oil, sneaking into the night with the wind.

The raindrops were fine and dense, like smoke and fog, covering the night with a hazy veil.

On this chilly and rainy night in spring, it is difficult to see pedestrians on the official road.

But at this moment, another group of people rode on horses and marched forward in the rain.

In the rainy night, a single light shone ahead. As the group rode closer, they gradually saw that it was a roadside inn.

Everyone came to the door of the wild inn, pulled the reins, and dismounted from their horses.

However, almost everyone just stood around the wild shop, as if on guard.

Only one person pushed open the door of the wild inn and entered.

A square table has been set up inside the wild restaurant.

There was an oil lamp lit on the table, and there was a jar of wine and three empty bowls.

And a middle-aged swordsman sat at the table.

His face was as calm as water, his eyes were deep, and he was wearing a loose blue-white robe.

A simple and ancient long sword hung at his waist. The scabbard was simple yet solemn, and the hilt was wrapped with traces of time, which was a witness to countless battles and baptisms of wind and rain.

This person turned out to be Wang Daizhen, the leader of Senluo Sect.

There was no one else in this wild inn except Wang Daizhen.

Wang Daizhen was seen sitting at the table, looking up at the visitor.

"You came."

Wang Daizhen spoke in a deep voice.

Please close the door tightly to keep out the wind and rain.

He took off his straw hat, untied his raincoat, and sat down at the table.

The visitor was over sixty years old, but still as strong as a lion.

The fabric of his clothes swayed gently in the wind, revealing a sense of strength and demeanor radiating from the inside out.

Time has left deep marks on his face, but his eyes are as sharp as an eagle.

This person turned out to be the leader of Guiyi Sect, Di Moyu.

Who would have thought.

Guiyi Sect and Senluo Sect, two sects in Qingzhou that are incompatible with each other, their leaders would actually meet in a nightclub in the wild on this rainy night.

Di Moyu strode forward and sat down at the table.

His eyes were fixed on Wang Daizhen, his face showing no sign of displeasure.

It seemed as if he was about to leave if he had a disagreement.

Wang Daizhen picked up the wine jar and poured two bowls of wine.

As he poured the wine, he said:
"Now, Qingzhou City is full of Taiping Dao spies."

"As soon as we enter the city, we will definitely be discovered."

"You know, the Taipingdao group is unscrupulous and daring. They dare to do anything."

"So, I can only change the meeting place to here."

He pushed a bowl of wine in front of Di Moyu, the leader of Guiyi Sect.

Di Moyu remained indifferent and just stared at Wang Daizhen coldly.

Wang Daizhen spoke expressionlessly:
"I heard that Ryan Burr, the man behind your Guiyi Sect, has been unhappy lately."

"He was involved in a murder case, and even his daughter, Concubine Zhang, was implicated and banished to the cold palace."

"If your master is having a hard time, I'm afraid your return to the same sect will also be difficult."

When Di Moyu heard this, he finally snorted coldly.

Following his cold snort, the wine in the bowl in front of him actually jumped up automatically, with countless water droplets jumping up half a foot, and then falling back into the bowl.

Di Moyu said in a deep voice:

"Honestly, Han Guozhang, the man behind your Senluo Sect, isn't necessarily happy these days, is he?"

"With the Yang family's cash cow gone, how can Han Guozhang maintain his relationship with the court?"

"I also heard that the Emperor has moved out of the palace and into a new residence. So, I'm afraid Concubine Han has fallen out of favor as well, right?"

"Especially the most vicious dog under Han Guozhang, that is, your Senluo Sect, has suffered heavy casualties recently. All the elders have died, and the deputy sect leader is also dead."

"And you actually want to challenge that great virtuous teacher. I think once you die, your Senluo Sect will be on the verge of collapse."

When Wang Daizhen heard this, anger welled up in his eyes.

Although he didn't move, the flame of the oil lamp on the table flickered without wind, as if it would go out at any time.

The dancing flames also made the light in the nightclub flicker.

The expressions of the two leaders also seemed uncertain in this environment.

finally.

The flame suddenly stabilized and continued to burn brightly.

Wang Daizhen said calmly:
"Master Di should know that the loss of the lips and teeth is detrimental."

"This Qingzhou originally belonged to our faction and yours."

"If our Senluo Sect is destroyed, which sect do you think will be the next to perish, Sect Master Di?"

Di Moyu narrowed his eyes slightly, still staring at Wang Daizhen without answering.

Wang Daizhen continued:
"I might as well tell Master Di a real truth: I'm not sure about challenging that great and virtuous teacher."

"That Great Sage Master is too skilled in martial arts. I only have a 20% chance of winning a duel with him."

Di Moyu frowned slightly.

He also didn't know how good the Great Sage Master's martial arts skills were.

But he knew very well that the Great Sage Master was able to bring the Senluo Sect, which was originally evenly matched with the Guiyi Sect, to the brink of destruction.

That great and virtuous teacher dared to destroy the Yang family, yet he was able to survive and succeed in the confrontation with the Qingzhou government office, the army and the Six Gates.

Just these things alone were something Di Moyu wouldn't even dare to think about.

But since the great and virtuous teacher was able to do it, it shows that his ability is terrifyingly great.

"Then you're going to die?"

Di Moyu finally asked.

Wang Daizhen smiled slightly:
"It's just a matter of risking one's life."

"Master Di, you and I should both have a bright future, instead of just relying on recklessness like those peasants in the Taiping Dao."

"My Senluo Sect has been severely damaged and is definitely not a threat to your Guiyi Sect."

"In the future, Qingzhou should be ruled by you, the Guiyi Sect, rather than the Taiping Dao."

"especially……"

Having said this, Wang Daizhen paused and smiled meaningfully:

"The people behind you and me don't want us to continue fighting among ourselves."

"If they can all shake hands and make peace, why should we, the subordinates, fight to the death?"

Di Moyu frowned when he heard this.

He knew that Wang Dai was right.

Uncle Ryan and Mr. Han Guo have already shaken hands and made peace.

These two rivals who once fought fiercely in the court began to put aside their past grudges and work together for warmth due to changes in the situation.

So what reason do the subordinates have to continue fighting?

only……

If that were all, Di Moyu might not be willing to give up!
