I'm the best catcher in martial arts
Chapter 3 The thoroughfare of nine provinces, surrounded by wolves
Ling Tuisi, the prefect of Jingzhou.
Hearing this name, Shen Lian couldn't help showing a somewhat nostalgic expression. This is one of the most profound names in his memory, and his debut battle also took place in Jingzhou.
Shen Lian didn't know which god brought him to this world. He only knew that the great god was very, very, very stingy, so stingy that people wanted to beat him to death.
Not to mention advanced plug-ins like the "system", there are no storage rings or magical powers at all.
Shen Lian's only reliance is to continuously deepen the memory of the "plot" in his mind. When he succeeds in his studies, he will immediately dig for treasures according to his memory.
The first place to go is Jingzhou.
According to Shen Lian's memory, there is a treasure belonging to Emperor Liang Yuan Xiao Yi hidden in Tianning Temple to the south and west of Jiangling City. It seems to be called the Liancheng Treasure, and it is smeared with poison.
After Shen Lian arrived in Jingzhou, he secretly took away all Liancheng's treasures, and then used some means to turn the jewels into cash to fund his activities.
Over the years, most of the promotions in official positions, elixirs for practicing martial arts, compensation for broken things, and the ambitions and great achievements of the direct brother came from this.
It's not that no one doubts it, but the Shen family used to be a wealthy and powerful family. If anyone asked, they would blame it on the elders and just say that it was the uncle who was taking care of the nephew.
Shen Lian has an uncle who has not yet entered the fifth level of service, named
——Shen Wansan!
"Second brother, I remember that you have been to Jingzhou. Come and tell me what powerful martial arts forces there are in Jingxiang. Who can do such a thing?"
"There is no martial arts power in the land of Jingxiang!"
Shen Lian sighed deeply.
Third-rate forces can be found in several villages and towns, second-rate forces can be found in most of the counties, first-rate forces can occupy famous mountains and rivers, and top-notch forces can cover several state capitals.
For example - Wu-Tang Clan!
It has been more than a hundred years since Zhang Sanfeng founded the Wudang Sect. There are many masters and heroes, such as the Jade Pillar of the Central Plains Wulin and the Big Dipper of Mount Tai.
Wudang Mountain is located in the northwest of Jingzhou. It takes about two or three days to travel quickly. If pigeons carry messages or hawks carry messages, there can be two round trips in one day.
With such a close distance, the Jingxiang martial arts community is naturally deeply influenced by the Wudang sect. Seventy-eight of the sects that can be named were founded by disciples of the Wudang lay disciples.
Having said that, Wudang is a well-known and decent sect that cares about the inheritance of orthodoxy and incense beliefs. It is impossible to compete for territory like the underworld gangs.
As long as they don't go too far and don't kill fellow martial artists indiscriminately, the Wu-Tang Clan generally won't care.
Unfortunately, going south from Jingzhou leads directly to Dongting Lake. The Nu Jiao Gang in Dongting Lake is the most powerful on the water, and no gang can compete with it.
Most of the underworld gangs that wanted to develop their power in Jingxiang were "friendly and persuaded to quit" by the Nujiao Gang. Even if they were six and a half, only spies were left to collect intelligence.
There is Wudang in white and Wrath Jiao in black. As a result, there are no large-scale martial arts forces in the Jingxiang area. There are only three to four hundred small families, most of which are not popular sects.
With just these small, nine-level sects, it is simply impossible to assassinate the prefect of Jingzhou.
The magistrate of Jingzhou, a fourth-rank official, is half a rank higher than Lu Jianxing, the imperial envoy of Jinyiwei Town. He can be transferred back to the capital and become the Minister of Rites.
How could such a big official be assassinated at will?
Lu Jianxing couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
"Second brother, do you mean that he is either a top master of the Wudang Sect's Nu Jiao Gang, a mysterious killer force, or a wanderer?"
"It's too early to say anything now. Before seeing Ling Tuisi's body, everything is just speculation."
Lu Jianxing smiled and said: "It's such a hot day, I'm sorry to bother you to accompany me for a walk.
I should have thanked you, but I was short of money, and Master Shen probably didn't like the few copper coins in my hand, so I didn't thank you. "
Shen Lian: s(`ヘ;)ゞ
"piss off!"
"okay!"
…
Shen Lian's home is located in the south of Jinling City. It is a quite luxurious house. With Shen Lian's salary, he can go without food or drink for two to three hundred years, which is almost enough.
The reason why I can live in such a luxurious house without being criticized by the imperial censor is of course because of my wealthy uncle.
Shen Wansan was the richest man in the world in the past. He once funded Zhu Yuanzhang's army. Sixteen years ago, Shen Wansan donated 90% of his family property to the court and immediately went to sea by boat.
Although only 10% was left behind, Shen Wansan's assets were so rich that even distant relatives like Shen Lian were allocated two mansions, two silk and satin shops, and two restaurants.
The reason why there are two copies is because Shen Lian happens to have two brothers in his family, so it is easier to divide the families this way.
The Shen family has now been divided.
Since Shen Lian is the master of the Six Doors and needs to hunt down criminals everywhere, he is away from home all year round and has no intention of making a contribution, so the shops are all taken care of by his elder brother.
Shen Lian's elder brother is named Shen Yumen. His martial arts talent is unpredictable, heroic and ambitious.
With Shen Lian's explicit or implicit suggestions, Shen Yumen recruited many talents and formed a considerable force.
It's just that the Jinling martial arts world is divided into three parts, and there is no room for Shen Yumen to develop. Shen Yumen has already planned to go to other wealthy states to develop his power and make achievements.
There are two people in charge of the affairs of Shen Lian's family.
One is the old housekeeper Fu Bo, who has worked conscientiously in the Shen family for more than 40 years and is the "eldest member of the Shen family for three dynasties".
One is Shen Lian's personal maid.
The maid's surname is Zuo, a famous poet. She is the daughter of Zuo Boyan, the first brewing master in the capital. She has a good family background and is good at cooking and brewing. She is especially good at brewing.
When Zuo Shi was thirteen years old, Zuo Boyan was involved in a court dispute, and it was only a matter of time before his family was destroyed.
When he was desperate, Shen Lian reached out to help.
Zuo Shi has followed Shen Lian since then. After more than five years of training, he has become Shen Lian's most caring confidant.
"Sir, the eldest master is here."
"Where are the people?"
"Leave a word and leave."
"My eldest brother is really impatient. He can't even wait for his younger brother. What's important to him?"
"The eldest son didn't go into details. He only said that the matter was related to Jingzhou. A big event seemed to have happened in Jingzhou."
"Ling Tuisi, the prefect of Jingzhou, has been assassinated, and great changes are about to occur in Jingzhou. Jingxiang is a treasure land that is the thoroughfare of nine provinces. My eldest brother wants to dominate Jingxiang."
Zuo Shi smiled and said: "Although Jinling is an imperial city and prosperous, its power in the world is severely limited. No matter how it develops, it will eventually be suppressed by the imperial court."
Shen Lian said: "I don't object to changing the place, but the Jingxiang land involves too many things, especially when facing the pressure of the Nujiao Gang, Ling Zhantian will be very difficult to deal with."
"Which of the prosperous and prosperous state capitals in the world, or the famous mountains, rivers, caves, heaven and blessed land, has not been occupied?
Although the land of Jingxiang is surrounded by wolves, there are no tigers or dragons after all, so it is the best choice at the moment. "
"That's right. Tonight, I'm going to discuss it with my eldest brother. It's not an easy task to dominate Jingxiang. It requires a lot of preliminary preparations."
"for example?"
"At least get Wu-Tang's approval."
Shen Lian sighed: "The land gods of Wudang shattered the void, but the Kunlun Bright Summit and the Holy Fire of Mingzun are burning brightly. Which sect dares not to give face?"
Zuo Shi joked: "Young master never seems to give anyone face when he is arresting Jiangyang robbers."
Shen Lian said helplessly: "So, in addition to the local sect in Jingxiang, my eldest brother also has to deal with the people I have offended. These are all troublesome things."
