I play the role of Jiajing in Zongwu: What crime have I committed?

Zhu Shou said in a serious tone.

"Indeed, I am one of the Four Great Protectors of the Ming Cult, the Green-Winged Bat King."

"Our Ming Cult is the most powerful sect in the Great Xi Dynasty; you will know this in the future."

The little beggars were stunned by these words, their eyes filled with awe.

Zhu Shou seized the opportunity and continued to brainwash them.

He suddenly raised his right arm.

"Come, shout the slogan with me: May the sun, moon, mountains, and rivers live on forever!"

"May the sun, moon, mountains, and rivers endure forever!"

Zhu Chongba was the first to react and shouted loudly.

The other teenagers also raised their thin arms and shouted along.

Zhu Shou nodded in satisfaction and added.

"Remember our teachings, burn my remains in the sacred fire. What joy is there in life, what sorrow in death? To do good and rid evil..."

Inside Room No. 3, Tianzi Building, Chuanyu Building.

Zhu Houcong was having a great time when suddenly a "buzz" exploded in his mind.

[Hidden Reward Triggered: Join the Ming Cult according to ancestral rules, and receive a Super Heavenly General Pill]

Zhu Houcong was stunned after hearing the whole thing.

What the hell!

There's such a reward?

After a long moment of stunned silence, he suddenly sprang up from the couch.

Depend on!Depend on!Depend on!

His eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief.

Another Super Heavenly General Pill has appeared.

So does this mean we've gained another master of Zhu Shou's caliber?

The previous one was a reward given after conquering the entire Southern Chu.

Now you can actually get one for free just by establishing the Ming Cult?

It's likely that Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, joined the Ming Cult during the uprising, which led to the idea of ​​following ancestral rules.

It was just a lucky coincidence.

Zhu Houcong paced back and forth in the room, excited.

Now I don't have to keep waiting in Yizhou City.

He couldn't wait to extract the Super Heavenly General Pill, and sure enough, a golden, radiant pill appeared in his hand.

Those familiar patterns and those powerful energy fluctuations were indeed the genuine Super Heavenly General Pill.

"I've made a fortune!"

Zhu Houcong excitedly forced out his essence blood to activate the Super Heavenly General Pill.

"From now on, you will be the Golden Lion King."

...

Zhu Shou glanced at the group of enthusiastic young men and continued speaking.

"Chongba, lead the way! Tonight, we'll raze Longyang Gate to the ground!"

Zhu Chongba shuddered, his eyes flashing with an unprecedented brilliance.

He clasped his hands tightly, his voice trembling slightly with excitement.

"Yes, Your Excellency."

After speaking, Zhu Chongba turned to face his former beggar companions, took a deep breath, and raised his right arm.

"Brothers, the Longyang Sect has committed countless evils; today, we, the Ming Cult, will uphold justice on behalf of Heaven."

"Acting on behalf of Heaven."

A dozen or so teenagers shouted in unison, their youthful voices filled with passion.

Zhu Shou unfurled his black robe and rose gracefully like a bat in the night.

"set off!"

Chapter 215 Who are you?

When news of the tragic death of the only son of the leader of Longyang Sect, the largest sect in Yizhou, spread, the entire city of Yizhou was thrown into turmoil.

boom!

Inside the main altar at Longyang Gate in Yizhou City, a heart-wrenching roar shattered the roof tiles.

Yang Dingtian, the leader of the Longyang Sect, looked at his son's corpse, which had been skewered like a whole roasted lamb, with tears streaming down his face.

His body surged with true energy, and he roared madly at the crowd.

"Investigate, investigate for me!"

"Even if we have to turn Yizhou City upside down, we must find those two thieves."

"Yes."

Zhu Houcong has really stirred up a hornet's nest this time.

Hundreds of Longyang disciples poured out of the city to search for Zhu Houcong and his companion.

Not only did the government officials dare not intervene, they even aided and abetted the tyrant.

Arrest warrants were issued, and constables were dispatched to assist Longyangmen in searching for suspicious persons from house to house.

The vast government office of Yizhou City had become nothing more than the security department of Longyang Gate.

The common people were already used to this.

They could only kneel obediently to the side, watching these people extort and demand bribes in their own home.

In this wicked ancient feudal society, the common people at the bottom of society could only kneel forever.

If you try to rebel, all that awaits you is the separation of your wife and children.

Even worse, it can cause mental health problems.

The people of Yizhou City had long since become accustomed to this; as long as they could eat, that was enough, and as long as they could wear clothes to cover their bodies, that was sufficient.

Live one day at a time.

If you really want to be meticulous, you might worry about whether there's any poison in the cornbread your family eats, or what material their clothes are made of.

Then someone will make it so that you can't live a single day.

Anyway, they only need to throw a few thousand copper coins on the ground to easily get rid of you.

Of course, this refers to ancient feudal society.

"Have you heard? The young master of the Longyang Sect has been turned into skewers!"

"Is there still this?"

"Of course, I saw it with my own eyes in the teahouse."

"Shh, keep your voice down. The Longyang Sect is searching everywhere for witnesses."

Why are you arresting us?

“The portraits? You’ve all seen those two thieves.”

"I'll be going now, goodbye!"

People whispered among themselves in the streets and alleys.

Many people chose to remain silent and watch as the once domineering Longyang disciples now acted like mad dogs, biting people indiscriminately.

Just as the Longyangmen headquarters was almost entirely mobilized, a strange group rapidly approached the headquarters.

Under the cover of night, they arrived at a magnificent and imposing mansion.

Two stone lions stand guard on the left and right.

Two large red lanterns hung on the black lacquered gate.

The three gilded characters "Longyangmen" on the gate plaque gleamed in the moonlight.

"Guardian, it's over there."

Zhu Chongba peeked out and looked at the mansion not far away.

"If we wait until late at night to sneak in, the chances of being discovered will be much smaller."

"Guardian, are we really going to launch a surprise attack on Longyang Gate?"

The boy behind him nervously swallowed.

Zhu Shou had his back to everyone, his voice carrying a chilling coldness.

"Life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor by heaven."

"If you don't even have the courage to fight to the death, I can send you on your way right now."

"So as not to continue suffering in this mortal world."

Upon hearing this, everyone felt a chill run down their spines and straight to their heads.

I was immediately terrified.

The boy who had just spoken turned ashen-faced, and his three legs began to tremble uncontrollably.

Then, the other boys also fell silent, too afraid to utter a sound.

Upon seeing this, Zhu Chongba quickly stepped forward.

"Guardian, please calm down. We brothers are new to the Ming Cult and do not yet know the rules."

"I guarantee that this will never happen again."

Zhu Shou coldly scanned the area, and seeing that the intimidation effect had been achieved, he withdrew his killing intent.

He turned and looked towards the direction of the Longyangmen headquarters in the distance, and took a step forward.

"Let's go! The Ming Cult never acts in secret."

Everyone saw this and quickly followed.

Upon arriving at the main gate of the Longyang Sect, before the four disciples guarding the gate could even speak, four streaks of dark light flashed by.

In an instant, a pebble became embedded between the brows of all four.

It fell straight down.

Then Zhu Shou punched the three-inch-thick black lacquered door.

The powerful energy immediately spread outwards, overturning the surrounding stone slabs.

The two stone lions, which symbolized authority, were directly shattered into dust.

Inside the courtyard behind the gate, some Longyang Sect disciples were so shocked by the force of the energy that they coughed up blood before they even had a chance to react.

He lay on the ground, wailing in agony.

Zhu Shou led Zhu Chongba and the others into the courtyard.

What comes into view is a screen wall carved with auspicious dragons and phoenixes, which also appears to be the work of skilled craftsmen.

It appears quite extraordinary.

Zhu Shou didn't care at all and smashed the screen wall to pieces with a single punch.

Two consecutive loud noises startled the entire Longyang Gate.
