Under One Person: I am the Master of Maoshan

Li Yunlong looked at Monk Wei with eyes full of admiration.

"Good job, brother, you can stay now"

"what?"

Monk Wei touched his head, somewhat puzzled, and Zhao Gang waved his hand at him.

"Wei Dayong, go down and have a rest first."

"Yes, sir"

After Monk Wei left, everyone looked at Shen Yan who was frowning and thinking, and did not dare to disturb him. After three or five minutes, Shen Yan took a deep breath.

"These devils want to expand the scale. I guess there is more than one such prisoner-of-war camp. Since the Anti-Japanese War, the devils have rarely set up prisoner-of-war camps. Usually, the captured soldiers were killed or sent to other places to do hard labor. This is not good news."

Li Yunlong took a sip of wine and said, "Xiao Shen, is there any good way to catch these devils?"

"Wait a minute. Let Mu Yun come tomorrow. I will discuss the specific details with him. We will start with the prisoner-of-war camp where Monk Wei came from. I suspect they have other purposes."

When Monk Wei was mentioned, Li Yunlong looked at Zhao Gang and asked, "What's the matter with this Monk Wei, Political Commissar Zhao?"

"It's like this, Commander. He thinks our Eighth Route Army is too primitive and poorly equipped, and wants to go back to the Central Army. I don't want him to stay just because I saved his life, so I just let him come and take a look."

Shen Yan saw Li Yunlong's eyes moving around, so he smiled and asked, "Captain, what do you think of this Monk Wei?"

"Haha, don't you want to hold the torch?"

Shen Yan made a joke: "He has no fate with us, so I won't take away his love."

"Then I won't be polite. You can't regret it."

Shen Yan smiled and got off the kang: "Don't worry, Captain, let's just leave it at that. You guys can chat while I go back to Zhiju's base to take a look."

"wait"

After Li Yunlong finished speaking, he took out a brand new military uniform from the box behind him and handed it to Shen Yan.

"I made this for you myself. Take it back and try it out to see if it fits you."

Shen Yan took it and felt warm in his heart: "Captain, you are great. The military uniforms can be made in less than a month at the clothing factory."

"Haha, who am I, Old Li? If there is no war in the future, maybe I can open a tailor shop. Then you all have to support me!"

"Hahaha"

Shen Yan followed Lu Ren and You Ke out of the regiment headquarters and returned to the new base of Zhiju. Everyone in Zhiju had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw Shen Yan, they all surrounded him.

"team leader"

"Captain, you are finally back"

Shen Yan looked at the familiar faces and greeted them one by one. When he came to his senior brother Li Yuhang and junior brother Tang Nian'en, his smile was a little sad.

Li Yuhang patted Tang Nian'en, and they both fell to the ground.

"Brother! What are you doing? Get up!"

Shen Yan hurried forward to support the two of them, but Li Yuhang broke free from Shen Yan's hand and spoke loudly.

"Junior brother, etiquette cannot be abandoned. Maoshan disciple Li Yuhang greets the headmaster!"

"Maoshan disciple Tang Nian'en greets the head brother!"

Everyone then realized that Shen Yan in front of them was not only the captain of the torch-bearing group, but also the current head of the Xuanmen Shangqing Maoshan. Everyone straightened their clothes and bowed to Shen Yan.

"Meet Master Shen Shan"

Shen Yan felt indescribable in his heart. From this moment on, he felt that the stubborn old man who taught him was really gone.

He bowed to everyone and said, "Everyone, thank you for your trust in me. This time, I made you worry because of my own selfishness. I hope you can help me in the future. Let's fight the enemy together and face the national crisis together!"

"Follow the orders of the mountain master! Join hands to kill the enemy and face the national crisis together!"

The light in everyone's eyes was as hot as fire. Shen Yan arranged for a few people to go out shopping and set up a banquet at Zhiju's residence.

The table was filled with all kinds of meat and fine wine. During the time when Shen Yan was away, everyone holding the torch seemed to be shrouded in dark clouds. Now that Shen Yan has returned, the dark clouds covering everyone's heads have disappeared.

Shen Yan sat in the middle and accepted all the toasts from his comrades around him. The spicy liquor went down his throat, bringing a burning and stinging sensation.

Gong Er sat beside him and watched him quietly. She saw that although Shen Yan had a smile on his face, there was still a trace of sadness between his brows.

"Water...water"

At night, Shen Yan felt dry mouth and tongue, lying on the bed, drowsily shouting for water.

A jade hand held his neck and brought a bowl of water to his mouth. After drinking a few sips of water, Shen Yan became much more sober. When he opened his eyes, he saw Gong Er sitting at the head of his bed.

Shen Yan took the bowl of water awkwardly and drank it all: "Thank you, what time is it now?"

"It's past ten o'clock."

Shen Yan stood up, washed his face, and used his true energy to dispel the alcohol in his body.

"Will you come for a walk with me? I can check the sentry too."

Gong Er picked up the military jacket next to him and helped him put it on. The two of them left the room and began to patrol Zhiju's base.

"The last time we were together like this was at Wang's house."

Shen Yan raised his head and looked at the moonlight and said softly: "Yes, I remember we met Wu Man that night, but unfortunately I couldn't keep what he said."

Gong Er's voice was as gentle as water: "You can't blame yourself for all this. The old mountain master treats you like his own son. If it were me, I would probably do the same."

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Nothing will happen to my uncle, right? This time, Uncle Gong openly challenged the diarist for me. That person is narrow-minded, so I'll ask you to be careful."

Gong Er shook his head: "No, as long as the Huawu Association does not openly side with this side, he can't do anything to my father and the others. Although there are not many people left in the alliance now, the Diary Family still dare not ask for help from the alliance."

Shen Yan felt much more relieved after hearing what Gong Er said. The two of them walked to the base of the New 1st Regiment. Not long after they walked away, they heard a sound coming from the dark.

"Stop, command!"

Shen Yan heard that the voice was from Lu Ren, so he stood down and said, "Bloom, reply to the order."

"germination"

Lu Ren and Jie Kong came out from behind the wall in the distance. Lu Ren looked at them and laughed.

"I saw you two from a distance. You didn't sleep at night and came here to enjoy the moonlight."

Gong Er blushed and said, "No, the captain asked me to go out with him to check the sentry."

“Hahaha, I understand.”

Shen Yan rolled his eyes at him: "Stop talking nonsense, is there anything unusual?"

"No, we set the sentry far away. Even the cliff has someone guarding it."

When Shen Yan looked at Jie Kong, he thought of Monk Wei, so he asked, "Jie Kong, I didn't have time to ask during the day, are you familiar with Wei Dayong?"

"From the description of his appearance by the political commissar, this Wei Dayong should be the apprentice of my senior brother, but he was driven out of the mountain many years ago. His Dharma name is Heng Yong, and he was driven out of the mountain by my master because he had an argument with someone outside the temple. I haven't met him many times, but I should be able to recognize him."

After hearing this, Shen Yan had a sly smile on his face: "Then don't recognize him yet. This kid has a violent temper. Our leader has taken a liking to him, so we need to temper his temper."

After another round of inspection and finding nothing unusual, they returned to their respective residences. When Shen Yan reached the door of the room, Lu Ren called him.

"Captain, you left in a hurry and didn't put this away, so I put it away for you."

Lu Ren took out the long bag that Tang Nian'en brought with him from his swallowing bag and handed it to Shen Yan.

Shen Yan took a deep breath, took the bag and smiled at Lu Ren.

"Thank you"

Lu Ren patted his shoulder and said, "Go to bed early."

Shen Yan returned to the room and untied the bundle with shaking hands. Inside the bundle was a wooden box. He looked at it and found that the box was nearly four feet long. He pulled out the lid of the wooden box and saw a wooden whip.

He took out the wooden whip with both hands and looked at it carefully. The whip was three feet six inches and five points long, with a total of twenty-one sections. There were four talismans engraved on each section, for a total of eighty-four talismans.
