From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

"Fourth brother, don't say such things!"

Based on the previous behavior of this "Zhenyuan Daxian," who is greedy for money, power-hungry, and willful, and even considering that he raised two beautiful young girls, and is also lecherous, he is definitely a heretic and evil person. How could he possibly have any connection with the Gong Sect?

Gao Huzi assumed he was trying to establish his authority, so he said, "We're all brothers, of one mind and one body!"

After saying that, he had another idea and changed the subject, saying, "But what Fourth Brother said makes sense. You, Qingfeng, do need someone to accompany you down the mountain."

How about this?

Hailong and Shanhu, you two will follow Qingfeng Xiantong and protect her. Do you understand?

"Understood!" X2

Lu Jin and Zhang Zhiwei exchanged a glance, deliberately feigning reluctance but also having no choice but to go along. Reluctantly, they obeyed and accompanied Miss Hong out of the main hall.

Jiang Liu, not to be idle either, said to Hu Fangyuan, "I also know the method of refining the Gu Body Saint Child. I'll accompany you to take a look. You won't mind, will you?"

Upon hearing this, Hu Fangyuan felt as if he had eaten shit. Helpless, he could only lead Jiang Liu to the place where the Gu Body Saint Child was being refined...

···

"Brother, do you really believe this guy?"

Huan Yang remained in the main hall, leaned forward, and said to Gao Huzi, "It's not the righteous path, but this kind of capriciousness is even more sinister than ours!"

"Hey, Third Brother, don't speak ill of people behind their backs. His behavior and way of doing things are nothing like that of Quanxing."

Gao Hu Zi was already consumed by greed, anger, and delusion, and was already thinking about how to seize the innate Qi of others in order to achieve immortality. He admonished Huan Yang, "That's right, brother!"

"But it is precisely because we are too much like Quanxing that we seem fake."

Huan Yang remained silent, because although they were all members of the Quanxing sect, as mountain bandits, they could not truly do as they pleased, and thus a hierarchy had emerged.

But that "Zhen Yuanzi" truly acted on impulse—

If he really became the fourth leader of Dawang Mountain, what kind of chaos would the mountain become? Even if he withdrew from the Gong faction, he would still cause the stronghold to collapse on its own.

"It's alright!"

Gao Huzi didn't care. "As long as he really has a way to convert other people's innate Qi into his own to replenish his lifespan, you and I can both live forever!"

So what if the mountain stronghold was destroyed back then?

People are everywhere, you can find them anywhere!

Seeing that Gao Huzi was determined, Huan Yang, no matter how helpless he was, did not try to persuade him any further, but began to think about a way out.

As a bandit, how could he not leave himself a way out?

As members of the Quanxing sect, how could they possibly be so fixated on one thing?

the other side.

After descending the mountain, Lu Jin, Zhang Zhiwei, and Hong Guniang headed straight for the location of the Gongpai army.

"stop!"

The soldiers stationed outside saw three people approaching—two men and a girl—and immediately became alert.

"Please inform them that we can help take down Dawang Mountain!"

Lu Jin immediately stopped and called out to the soldier.

"May I ask who you are?"

"The Confucian Society of Lu Jin".

"The Confucian Society's Red Maiden".

"I am Zhang Zhiwei."

"Please wait a moment."

The soldier jogged into the camp, while the rest of the soldiers remained at their posts, tilting their rifles slightly forward, as if they would immediately raise their guns, aim, and fire at the slightest movement from Lu Jin, Zhang Zhiwei, Hong Guniang, and the others.

But Lu Jin was not annoyed. Instead, he praised, "Compared to the bandits of Dawang Mountain, their discipline is truly on a completely different level."

"If that bearded man hadn't taken the villagers from the foot of the mountain hostage beforehand, there wouldn't have been this much trouble," Zhang Zhiwei chuckled.

As they were talking, a man in a yellow-green military uniform walked out of the tent, and he was an old acquaintance of Lu Jin and Hong Guniang—

Mr. Ren.

However, Lu Jin, Hong Guniang, and Zhang Zhiwei had not yet regained their original forms, so Mr. Ren did not recognize them. When Mr. Ren saw that they were not familiar faces, he raised his hand, and the soldiers immediately pointed their guns at the three of them. Nearby soldiers also quickly arrived and surrounded the three of them.

"Who are you? Why are you impersonating Lu Jin, Hong Guniang, and Zhang Zhiwei?" Mr. Ren asked the three men in a cold tone.

“Mr. Ren, it was I, along with Brother Jiang, Sister Hong, Sister Liu and others, who rescued you and other insightful people from Shanghai back then.”

Lu Jin didn't explain, but simply stated a fact.

Red Girl added, "Back then, we came out on the Iron Ball. Our guild leader disguised you with paper dolls, and in the end, the Iron Ball was put into the guild leader's storage ring."

Zhang Zhiwei concluded by saying, "Brother Ren, you even asked me to wipe out fifteen bandit dens."

"lay down!"

"Please come in quickly!"

The first sentence is an order to the soldiers.

The second sentence is spoken while inviting the three people into the tent.

"Sorry, we don't have any good tea, just plain boiled water."

Mr. Ren poured boiled water for the three of them and said with a smile, "This is all thanks to the Confucian Association's publicity efforts. People have gradually started drinking boiled water, and the number of soldiers getting sick has decreased significantly."

"Mr. Ren, your words are unnecessary. Tea is enough to quench your thirst."

Lu Jin took a sip of water to quench his thirst and then recounted their investigation into the stolen baby, their search for Dawang Mountain, their change of appearance, their attempt to rescue the innocent baby, their suppression of bandits, and the people who had been abducted to the mountain. He then added, "We need your help now."

"To be honest, we came here in the first place to wipe out Dawang Mountain, but that Gao Huzi is really a scoundrel. He actually captured all the villagers from the foot of the mountain and the surrounding area, which made us feel helpless."

Mr. Ren was also troubled by the difficult nature of the tall, bearded man...

# Chapter 977 The Plan is Underway —

"Mr. Ren, please don't worry, that's exactly why we've come."

Red Girl comforted him, "Our guild leader has already deceived that tall bearded man and become his 'fourth brother.' To gain a foothold, he needs to make some achievements."

So he sent us down to take your head..."

Mr. Ren was taken aback, then realized what was happening—

This must be just a lie to fool that tall-bearded man!

as predicted.

The girl in red continued, "But the real reason is that we hope you can send some of your people up the mountain with us to catch them off guard!"

"How to catch someone off guard?"

If we send people up the mountain, they will surely be noticed by the patrols on the mountain!

"Let me ask you this first: if we rescue the infants and innocent civilians, and then you suddenly appear inside the stronghold, how many troops would it take to take it down?"

Instead of answering immediately, Miss Hong asked this question first.

Without hesitation, Mr. Ren confidently said, "Only those bandits with special abilities on the mountain are somewhat troublesome. If they don't fight us to the death and just keep running away, we will have a hard time catching them."

The rest of the people—

"Since all three thousand men are capable of fighting, three hundred men will suffice for us."

This is not an exaggeration!

The discipline between bandits and soldiers cannot be generalized. In addition, the bandits of Dawang Mountain have been trapped in the mountain for a long time, and they are exhausted both physically and mentally.

If they were to suddenly see three hundred men appear, they would surely be terrified. At that time, if they could kill dozens of the bandits in the stronghold in a short period of time, the remaining bandits would be defeated and flee, losing all courage to fight.

Not to mention, as Jiang Liu's Foundation Building Method spread widely in the army—it couldn't make everyone have superpowers, but on average, everyone had a sense of Qi, and their physical functions were more than twice that of ordinary non-practitioners.

Three hundred people is a conservative estimate!

Three hundred people?

The girl in red nodded slightly, grabbed the bag hanging from her left arm, untied the rope, chanted an incantation, and released the real sea dragon and mountain tiger. "These two are the thieves who kidnapped the baby, and they are also Gao Huzi's confidants. Lu Jin and Zhang Zhiwei are the ones who transformed into them."

Mr. Ren clicked his tongue in amazement and asked, "What are the details of the plan?"

"First, divide the people you brought into three teams."

The first team consisted of three hundred people, whom I have taken into this human bag. I will take you all up the mountain together.

The second team, also consisting of three hundred people, infiltrated Fulong Mountain. There was no need to worry about the patrolmen; they had already been tricked by the "Fourth Leader" and had gone back to their respective homes to rest.

At that time, the two teams can cooperate from the inside and outside.

The remaining men formed a third team. Panicked by your feigned death, they set fire to the camp, looted valuables, and scattered for miles. They were actually stationed along main roads and side streets to capture all the bandits, ensuring none escaped and preventing harm to other people.

"Can this tiny bag really hold so many people?"

Mr. Ren had few objections to the Red Girl's plan, but he needed to confirm the personnel of the three teams. However, he was indeed a little curious about the seed bag that could bring in three hundred people.

"It's unknown how much it can hold, but it's said that anyone who hasn't escaped the cycle of reincarnation is unable to do so on their own," the girl in red told the truth.

"Reincarnation? Does the soul truly reincarnate?"

Mr. Ren was not interested in this, believing that superstitions should be dispelled.

"There is no such thing as reincarnation, but reincarnation is a real and objective phenomenon, just like the cycle of a natural ecosystem."

The young lady smiled slightly, "I think the Gong faction will be realistic and not deny the objective existence of spirits, ghosts and gods, etc."

"of course not."

objective!

Be realistic and pragmatic!

This is the true style of bowing!

immediately.
