Twilight Boundary Chapter 540

Chapter 540 Red Light Envoy

“If I want blood food, I want your father!”

When he received the letter from the Truth Cult, Protector Zuo Shen Hongzhi suddenly flew into a rage. He slapped the table and began to curse, which shocked the Red Lantern Empress.

They didn't know that this was the sequelae of the Truth Cult being scolded away by the seventh aunt at night. In the mountains to the south, they began to gather troops and horses, intending to defeat the bandits in one fell swoop. In the north, they urged blood food to prepare to recruit these bandits. Stranger in the world.

Nowadays, whether it is the soldiers and horses of the Truth Cult or the food security army coming out of the mountains, they are all improvised. Therefore, it is the most simple truth that where you recruit enough helpers, you can kill all sides.

Hu Ma could see it, and the Truth Sect could also see it clearly. It was also because of this that earlier, in order to collect food, he was not in a hurry to rush the red lantern society. But now that it is time to see Zhenzhang, if he does not hand over the thousand jars of blood food, he will be even more worried. When?

But as soon as the letter came out, the left guardian of the Red Lantern Society almost fainted with anger: "The blood food has been stolen by your truth sect using evil methods a long time ago. How dare you ask us for it?"

"It's just that I made a lot of money quietly, and now I still want it. There are only three melons and two dates left in the two warehouses. It's not even enough to feed the rats. Could it be that they want to force us to sell the Red Lantern Queen? Give them a discount?"

For a while, I was really confused about what the Truth Sect was doing. The members of the Truth Sect had raided the blood food warehouse at night. After that night, the blood food disappeared. The left guardian could not contact the right guardian, so he had to check it himself. After searching for a long time, I really couldn't find any clues.

There is no doubt that this blood warehouse must have been intercepted by members of the Truth Sect, but for the purpose of borrowing blood for food on the surface and stealing blood for food secretly, I am not sure for a while.

But the Truth Cult came to Mingzhou to preach in Zhenzhuang on the surface, but secretly they were harvesting grain in the fields. Everyone saw it. Now when it comes to blood food, after thinking about it, it is probably the same way.

It's just a matter of bullying those poor peasants. After all, our Red Lantern Club is also serving as the master of crime. How can we be manipulated like this by you?

“Come here, I'm going to meet the true religion of truth now.”

Amid the anger, Protector Zuo immediately summoned all the incense owners, shopkeepers, and worshipers in Zhumen Town in front of the Red Lantern Temple. He waved the letter handed over by the Truth Cult and shouted: "It seems that this Truth Cult, at the beginning, He just harbors troubles and doesn't let us have an easy time.”

“They were talking about asking us to borrow food, but from what I saw, they probably wanted to find a reason to kill us and show it to the noble men in the city, but we are not weaklings!”

“Several brave brothers come out and go with me to Mingzhou City to confront them!”

"If they are really bullying people like this, then beat them!"

“There are three to five hundred men in our Red Lantern Society. Are we still afraid of a foreign monster like them?”

She was angry and full of blood, and her pretty face was filled with murderous intent. However, an embarrassing scene appeared. She was shouting vigorously from above, and everyone below also showed sullen looks on their faces, but when it came to the point, When they entered the city, no one answered.

Unwilling to give in, she shouted again: "Brothers, go into the city and talk to them. No one can be unreasonable!"

There was still no answer from below.

The old Jianghu people below even began to lower their heads, not daring to make contact with her wonderful eyes.

Are you kidding? They collected grain and raised troops, occupied the capital of Mingzhou, and united with various nobles, but they made it clear that they wanted to do big things...

Our Red Lantern Club is just a gangster. Why do you want to fight with others?

The people in the Red Lantern Society, whether they are the shopkeepers, the worshipers, or even the incense owners, are not stupid. When the Jianghu sect encounters such a big deal, the two sides are not on the same level...

In terms of experts, there are actually quite a few Red Lantern Clubs, with seventeen villages and blood food mines under their name. Most of them are keepers. When it comes to the killing field, every keeper is a good player, and it is easy to become famous. of.

But who dares to engage in rebellion?

Not only do they not dare to rebel, but they also dare not fight with these rebellious people. After all, most of the people who watch the year are doing well and live a comfortable life. How can they put their wealth and life on such a thing?

Therefore, after Zuo Zuo shouted for a long time, he saw that except for a few taciturn incense burners who were willing to follow, none of the large group of gentlemen below dared to agree. Instead, their eyes were rolling, thinking of temporarily leaving the red lantern society. Quite a few…

Not only them, but even the red lanterns hanging in the temple behind them were a little confused: 'Send someone over first to explain it carefully. It's not that we won't give it, but there is really nothing left...'

　　'It hurts the peace of the people who fight and kill people…'

But in this awkward silence, someone suddenly jumped up and raised his hand: "I'll come, I'll come!"

Everyone hurriedly looked sideways, and saw that the person speaking was a young lady wearing a silk gown and a bright red skirt worn by a rich family's wife, with a bob on her head. She had a completely different style from the crowd of people in the world.

But among a group of big and thick men, she had a righteous look on her face: "It's the time of employment in the meeting, why is no one standing up to share the worries of the queen?"

"oops…"

Protector Zuo Shen Hongzhi was furious beyond words. When he saw her, he was immediately overjoyed: "It's you, I finally found you."

"Sister, you have good skills and are loyal to our affairs. I noticed you last time. I looked for you afterwards, but I couldn't find you. You are a white-waisted little worshipper, right?"

"I feel sorry for you. After we last met, I originally wanted to find you and make you a red waist."

"They are all doing things for the empress. She has a white waist and a red waist, so what's so important?" People around her also recognized her. This person seemed to be Mrs. Mi Xingfu who had been sent to the evil ghost in green before. Her husband's surname was Lu. , just contracted the disease, no one has seen it.

These small offerings actually belong to the hidden power of the Red Lantern Society. They usually have to take care of business at home. Only when the Red Lantern Society summons them for something, they will come over to meet in secret. I don't know why this rich lady is like this. So happy to be so active.

Even when faced with Protector Zuo's suggestion that she be promoted, she only waved her hand and said, “Just give me a red lantern.”

"I want to take it home to offer to my wife. As long as I offer it to our Lady of the Red Lantern, I will feel happy doing the work. I won't be afraid of the devil in blue or the truth!"

“Okay, okay.”

When Zuo Hufa heard what she said, he was so moved that he almost cried. Especially among this crowd of timid old men, he felt that sweet potato roasting was different. The more he looked at it, the more he liked it. He said, "He took the initiative to do things in the gang again." , not greedy for this credit..."

“Sister, how about you and I becoming sworn brothers and advancing and retreating together?”

“Married to Jinlan?”

This move made by Protector Zuo made Mrs. Lu from Mihang stunned for a moment: "I have never played this before..."

He soon became excited: "Okay, okay, let's try it, is it interesting..."

Deliberately offending these cowardly gentlemen, Zuo Protector Shen Hongzhi came down and burned incense with the rich lady from Lu's Rice Shop, a young lady from the red lantern club, in front of everyone, and they became sworn brothers to Jinlan.

Then she took out a gold-patterned red lantern that only the incense owner was qualified to carry and burned it for the sweet potato. This was equivalent to her appointment. Then she prepared to gather all the people and go to Mingzhou City with her. Go and see the Truth Cult directly.

Originally Protector Zuo Shen Hongzhi wanted to go with her, but Mrs. Lu stayed with her righteously: "Sister, you stay, it's inconvenient for me to take you with me..."

“…not insured.”

"There are a lot of things going on in the meeting now. If something goes wrong, you still have to take charge of the overall situation!"

Protector Zuo was greatly moved by these words. He took her hand and whispered: "Sister, I said some things in a low voice just now. I had to be tougher when I spoke, but after you go, you can You must not say that..."

“The main thing is to tell them that we really don't have that much blood food anymore. If they only want one or two hundred jars, we will get it for them..."

“Where are there another one or two hundred altars?”

Hearing this, Diguashao said seriously: "Sister, don't worry, I know it well!"

With that said, he picked up the beam and left the town alone. He went to the nearby village and paid for a few people to carry the sedan chair. He also picked up the red lantern, played and played, and made his way to the capital of Mingzhou.

Entering the city in such a high-profile manner, I don't know how many people's attention was attracted at once. Along the street, there were people from the world wearing banners with the word "reason" and carrying weapons on their waists. Sir, all the officials and yamen servants in official uniforms were ushered over.

Nowadays, the soldiers outside are messy, and they all say that the bandits in the mountains are fierce, and they are in their hearts. People who see the Red Light Club come, and they naturally care about the situation.

“Back then, when we held a red lantern festival in Mingzhou City, we didn't even have this sign…”

But Sweet Potato burned into the city. Sitting on the sedan chair and looking around, he saw the banners of the Truth Religion everywhere, and he felt that he was not worthy of the Red Lantern Empress: "In the past, such a highly respected empress could only huddle in the southwest corner of the city, so... It was easy to build a temple and was driven to Zhumen Town..."

The more he spoke, the angrier he became: "Your Majesty, you are so pitiful, I can't be more angry for your Majesty..."

While thinking about it, she had already arrived at the Yamen of Fucheng, and saw the altar leader of the Truth Cult, who had already gained faith, and came out to wait for her.

Diguashao got down from the sedan, politely bowed to the two altar masters, and the two altar masters were also busy making gestures to come to receive them. However, seeing that they were female streamers after all, they only made gestures and said nothing. Not really touching her, he smiled and said:

“I'm about to invite my colleagues from the Red Lantern Club to discuss important matters. Friends from the Red Lantern Club are here. Please come in quickly...

“Then there's no need. I'm just here to deliver a message to the gang. You sent someone to deliver a letter asking about these thousand jars of blood food. Our ladies said...”

Digua Shao glanced at the people around him shyly, then raised his head, raised his chin slightly, and said loudly: "Don't worry about it..."

　　…“…Not at all!”
