C26 Choice
When everyone saw that Lei Benlei wanted Lei Hantian to represent the Lei family in challenging the Breeze Stronghold, they couldn't help but glance at Lei Hantian a few more times. This beautiful man with beautiful eyebrows was probably more suitable for the performance on the stage. They really couldn't think of a way to fight or fight with him.
However, since the Lei family didn't worry about him challenging the Breeze Stronghold, it naturally meant that he had a strength that couldn't be underestimated. It seemed that Zhan Kuiyuan had escorted him to the provincial capital that day, so it would be better to say the opposite.
Zhang Jingxuan felt that the events that happened that night had stirred up a storm. From the perspective of an observer, he had benefited a lot from it. It was just that everyone claimed that they had saved Lei Feng'er, but none of them mentioned it to the other girls who had been robbed. It made him feel a little uncomfortable in his heart. But after all, the parents of the daughter of the Lei family were here, and the Lei family had contributed a lot to this. Everyone's attitude was understandable.
Since Yann Lanxun, Hu Dayuv, and the Lei family had expressed their stance, and Sun Shanglou had joined them, it could be said that the plan to challenge the Breeze Stronghold had already been decided by the rules of the Jianghu. The only thing left was how to allocate the manpower.
Yann Lanxun, Hu Dayuv, Lei Hantian, and Sun Shanglou were naturally the chosen ones. The rest of them also requested to go. However, Yann Lanxun and Hu Dayuv had both decided that it was not expensive to send people there. Lei Hantian continued to remain silent. Sun Shanglou did not care about it at all. He did not want to participate in their discussion.
In the end, County Magistrate Zhao, Hu Dayuv, and Yann Lanxun discussed and decided on the candidates to go. They were Sun Shanglou, Hu Dayuv, Wind Nanny, Rain Old Man and Yann Lanxun. There were nine people in total.
No matter how many people went, it was not as big as the number of soldiers and generals in Breeze Stronghold. The rest of them had to stay close to the door and did not want to cause any trouble at this moment.
In fact, the three people who went to the county were only witnesses. Zhang Juanqiu was more familiar with the road and could be a guide.
When they called Zhan Kuiyuan and Zhang Juanqiu, both of them responded loudly and softly. Only when they called Pann Jiaolv in the end did something happen.
Pann Jiaolv did not make any movements for a long time. It could be said that the County Magistrate did not allow him to speak casually. However, at that moment, when they saw him scratching his ears and scratching his cheeks, he finally brought it up in a stutter. His wife was probably about to give birth. Could he not go?
Perhaps County Magistrate Zhao felt that his treatment had insulted his reputation before everyone else, so he berated, "That wife of yours was merely seven or eight months pregnant. Could it be that she is going to give birth in a few days? Young Master Sun, Young Master Yann, and Young Master Lei were all daughters of gold, and General Hu and General Fengyu were appointed officials in the court. Don't tell me that they are not more valuable than you? You really cherish your life at this juncture. Don't you think my orders are child's play? You are used to being arrogant, aren't you? "
For some reason, Pann Jiaolv's energy had risen. He straightened his neck and started to bend.
"I say, my Lord Zhao, what is there to cherish my lowly life for? It's true that my wife has been feeling unwell for the past two days. I'm afraid that I won't even have someone to take care of me if I'm not in front of her. I, Pann Jiaolv, am already so old. It's so easy for me to have a baby. If anything happens to me, my days in the future won't be too long. I might as well kick myself to death right now. Master, you can't wrongly accuse me! " Pann Jiaolv's loud voice made Lei Benlei and the others frown when they heard it.
Zhang Jingxuan was the most familiar with Pann Jiaolv in the yamen. He heard Pann Jiaolv's miserable story and did not want to miss out on such a lively scene. For the first time, he took the initiative to speak.
He stepped forward and bowed. "Master Zhao, since Brother Pan does have something to do at home, I am willing to go on his behalf. I will do my best to not humiliate him."
County Magistrate Zhao felt ashamed when Pann Jiaolv made such a fuss. Seeing that Zhang Jingxuan took the initiative to volunteer himself, he helplessly agreed.
"You are a new kid. Never mind. This Pan doesn't know what's good for him. I will let you go. Consider it a good deed."
The rest of the constables were thinking in their hearts. This trip, whether they succeeded or not, the Lei family would reward them handsomely. Although it would be slightly dangerous, just like what County Magistrate Zhao had said, those few important figures weren't afraid of them, so why should they be afraid of them?
They couldn't help but hate themselves for being slow to react and getting snatched away by this kid.
Just like that, the final candidate was decided. Everyone packed up and was about to leave. Before they left, Hu Dayuv was in charge of explaining the general situation of the Breeze Stronghold to everyone.
The Breeze Stronghold was located on the mountain in front of Green Peak Mountain. The mountain was steep, easy to defend, and hard to attack. The mountain was occupied by three chiefs at the beginning. They were "Battle God Palm Feng Jintao," "Devastator Huang Luandu," as well as "Pursuing God to Hit Wang Zhiquan." There was a word God in each of their nicknames. They were known as "Three Gods Monsters." At that time, the Green Peak Mountain was on the level of Ghost God Difficulty. Even if a Divine Immortal crossed the border, he would still have to pay for the road money. Many people in the past were harmed by it.
About two years later, Henghe Yijian, Lee Yuming, went up the mountain with a single sword, and defeated the three divine monsters. The three of them were willing to submit, and accepted Lee Yuming as their leader.
Later, they attracted another scholar, "Wuyan Fan Zhao Yinshuang," who was responsible for the daily management of the stronghold. In addition, one disciple of Lee Yuming's family, "Jade Flute Immortal Lee Pingjue," was already six chiefs. Recently, they heard that another old friend of Lee Yuming, "Star Picking Sword Kuan Jiangjing," came to join him and gathered the current seven chiefs.
The order was Lee Yuming, Feng Jintao, Zhao Yinshuang, Huang Luandu and Wang Zhiquan. The entire stronghold was strong and well-disciplined. It could be said that there were no opponents within a thousand miles.
When everyone heard Hu Dayuv's words, they all sucked in a breath of cold air. It sounded like the Breeze Stronghold's power was far beyond their expectations. Those few who felt that they had lost out on their original plan because of not being able to participate in the battle. They couldn't help but feel that it wasn't necessarily a bad thing if they didn't participate in the war.
The few main forces didn't have much of a reaction to Hu Dayuv's description. Sun Shanglou was completely unmoved. He lowered his head and did not change at all. The strength of the enemy seemed to have nothing to do with him. Yann Lanxun narrowed his eyes. His fingers gently tapped on the armrest of the Eight Immortals Chair. He seemed to be lost in thought. Lei Hantian's eyes didn't look at anyone. No one knew where he was staring at. It seemed like he was in a state of emptiness.
Zhang Jingxuan didn't know what fear was. He looked at the condition of these people. He felt that things were getting more and more fun. He was eager to give it a try. He wished that he could fly to the Breeze Stronghold immediately. He wanted to take a look at the legendary chiefs and then have a fight with them. As for whether he would win or lose, he didn't think too much about it.
