After Lin Fan collected the treasure, he brought Su Quan and Shuang 'er on a tour of the mountains and rivers. They set off towards the Central Plains. To have a beauty as a companion and travel the martial world was the dream of many young heroes.
The two beauties beside Lin Fan were the envy of countless people.
A month later, Lin Fan and the other two arrived at Yang Zhou City.
It had been more than three months since Lin Fan first appeared in Yang Zhou City.
? Lin Fan looked at the two of them and smiled," When I first came out of the mountain, my first stop was this Yang Zhou City. At that time, everyone saw me like a plague and avoided me.”
Shuang 'er revealed a curious expression when she heard this.
Su Quan covered her mouth and laughed lightly. Her charming appearance only attracted the attention of passers-by.
"Sister Shuang 'er, guess why everyone is afraid of the young master when he just arrived in Yangzhou?”
Su Quan glanced at Lin Fan with her beautiful eyes. That seductive look of hers made one's bones turn soft.
Shuang 'er asked blankly," Why?”
Su Quan said coquettishly," Our Young Master didn't wear a cloak to cover himself back then. He just wore the hairstyle of the previous dynasty and appeared openly in Yangzhou City. It would be strange if everyone wasn't afraid."”
When Shuang 'er heard this, she immediately revealed a look of realization.
She knew about the hair-shaving order.
Lin Fan looked at Su Quan curiously and asked,""How did you know?"
"Young Master, who in the martial world doesn't know about this?”
Su Quan smiled and said," It's just that my two younger sisters haven't come into contact with the martial world and don't know about this.”
Shuang 'er smiled shyly.
Lin Fan rubbed his nose. Good news never leaves the house, but bad news travels a thousand miles.
The three of them chatted and laughed as they walked towards the Divine Dragon Cult's stronghold in Yangzhou City.
When they arrived at the stronghold, the fat and thin itinerant monks, as well as the disciples of Yangzhou, had been waiting for a long time.
? When he saw Lin Fan and the other two, he quickly bowed.
"This subordinate greets Cult Master, Vice Cult Master, and Lady Shuang 'er.”
"There's no need to be so polite." Lin Fan chuckled.
Then, he looked at the group of people at the side. They were obviously not members of the Divine Dragon Sect. The person in the lead should be over fifty years old. He had a square face. Although he was dressed plainly, it was difficult to hide his iron-blooded aura.
Looking at Lin Fan's gaze, the old man cupped his fists and said,""I've long heard of Cult Master Lin's fame. It's my honor to meet you today.”
"Sect Master, this is Sect Master Situ of Wangwu Sect."”
When Lin Fan heard that, his eyes flashed with shock.
"So it's Sect Master Situ.”
This Situ Bo Lei was originally a deputy general of the Ming Dynasty, under the command of the Shanhaiguan General Wu San Gui.
Later, he was very dissatisfied with Wu Sangui for letting the Qing soldiers enter the pass. Then, he led a group of people with the same idea to leave Wu Sangui's subordinates and came to Wangwu Mountain. They founded Wangwu Sect and secretly rebelled against the Manchu Tartars.
Towards this person, Lin Fan was filled with respect.
Most importantly, she had a disciple named Ceng Rou, one of Wei Xiaobao's seven wives.
"Everyone, let's go in and talk." Lin Fan smiled.
After saying that, he walked inside first.
Situ Bo Lei and the others followed closely behind.
Everyone entered and sat down. To show respect, Lin Fan took off his cloak and revealed his true appearance.
Everyone was shocked when they saw this.
Situ Bo Lei exclaimed," I've long heard that Sect Master Lin is young and that his martial arts have reached the pinnacle. Today, I've met Sect Master Lin. It's even more true than the rumors."”
"Sect Master Situ, you flatter me."? Lin Fan smiled and asked," Sect Leader Situ, what brings you to Yangzhou?"”
Hearing this, Situ Bo Lei cupped his fists again."Wangwu Sect was besieged by the Manchu Tartar Army. If it wasn't for the Divine Dragon Cult's help, Wangwu Sect would have been destroyed.”
"I came here to thank you personally and to meet Sect Master Lin to discuss the rebellion.”
Situ Bo Lei directly explained his intentions.
When Lin Fan heard that, his eyes flashed with shock.
The Wangwu Sect had almost been destroyed, and because of this, Wei Xiaobao had gotten himself a beauty like Ceng Rou.
However, he had changed many things in the plot, but he did not expect this to still happen.
Lin Fan could not help but look at the fat and skinny itinerant monk.
" Mao Dongzhu heard that the Cult Master wanted to develop the Divine Dragon Cult, so he paid special attention to the anti-Qing forces in the world. He also heard that the Tartars wanted to exterminate the Wangwu Sect, so he secretly contacted us about it."”
"This subordinate has already reported this matter, but the Five Dragon Emissaries have spread rumors that the Cult Master has gone out and cannot be contacted in a short period of time. This subordinate has no choice but to help Wangwu Sect first.”
Lin Fan looked at the fat monk and nodded,""Not bad."
Wangwu Sect was one of the famous anti-Qing forces in the world. If they were destroyed by the Qing Tartars, it would be a major blow to the anti-Qing cause.
Mao Dongzhu was still very good at handling matters. With her hiding in the palace, he would be the first to know if there were any movements in the palace in the future.
In the future, he would be able to take the initiative.
Hearing this, the skinny monk's face lit up with joy after receiving Lin Fan's praise.
At this moment, Lin Fan's prestige in the sect was even more terrifying than Hong Antong's. Back then, Hong Antong had used the Leopard Fetus Tendon Changing Pill to control the sect members. It was considered a dirty trick.
As for Lin Fan, he was using both kindness and might, fair and square. Coupled with that terrifying and extreme cultivation state of his, even the Divine Dragon Sect was convinced by him.
Of course, those who were unconvinced went down to see Patriarch Hong.
Situ Bo Lei thanked Lin Fan and the others once again. After some formalities, Situ Bo Lin said,"
"I wonder what Sect Master Lin thinks about the rebellion against the Qing Dynasty?”
The moment those words were spoken, everyone in the hall, be it the Divine Dragon Cult Master or the Wangwu Sect disciples, turned to look at Lin Fan.
Lin Fan looked at Situ Bo Lei with interest and smiled,""Sect Master Situ, why do you ask?”
Situ Bo Lei smiled bitterly." I won't hide it from you, Sect Master Lin. There are as many anti-Qing forces as there are hairs on an ox. However, after so many years, they have achieved nothing." On the contrary, the Tartars 'control over the world grew stronger.”
"If Sect Master Lin hadn't barged into the Imperial Palace to kill Ao Bai and given us hope, many of us might have given up.”
? When Lin Fan heard that, he asked," Sect Leader Situ, do you know why there hasn't been any progress in the rebellion?"”
Situ Bo Lei pondered for a moment and said,"Perhaps it's because the Tartar army is so powerful that it's hard for us to win if we face them head-on.”
Lin Fan shook his head," This is only one of the reasons. Sect Leader Situ, no matter how strong the Tartars are, if they can take on ten people at once, can they take on a hundred people at once? The Heaven-Earth Society was the best anti-Qing force in the world. If they could cooperate with each other, they would have a chance to drive the Tartars out of the Central Plains. Unfortunately, the two strongest anti-Qing forces were constantly fighting among themselves because of the King of Tang and the King of Gui. They were damaging their own strength and restraining each other. If this continued, they would be wiped out by the Tartars in a few years. There was no way they could escape.”
? Lin Fan's tone was generous and convincing.
Situ Bo Lei and the others 'expressions changed when they heard this.
? They knew what Lin Fan was saying. Infighting had always been a topic that the dynasties of the Central Plains couldn't let go.
However, this kind of thing was not something that could be changed by one person.
