Above the stars

No one screamed, no one howled.

There is no dying struggle and rolling around on the ground.

Bai Wuxin is a quiet person. He doesn't like to talk himself, nor does he like to listen to others talk.

So he does everything in one step.

The living room that was crowded just now suddenly became empty. Apart from Bai Wuxin himself, the only people present who could still breathe were Tang bandit Lei Zongnan An Ning and Mr. Yan.

Bai Wuxin originally wanted to kill Mr. Yan as well.

This guy has been standing behind Lei Zongnan since he entered. He seems to be low-key and silent, but he is actually a very key figure.

It's a pity that Mr. Yan was on guard and avoided Bai Wuxin before he made a move.

Bai Wuxin could only let him go temporarily.

After all, Tang Bandit said that the basic framework of the Flame Shrine should be preserved

He killed all the black robes present.

choke!

Sheath the sword.

Bai Wuxin stood behind Tang Bandit again.

Silent, silent.

Frosty.

Lei Zongnan looked at this scene with astonishment on his face.

Is this guy who kills people without blinking an eye the little sweetheart he wants to take into his house?

Didn't you say anything excessive to him just now?

Oh, she said she wanted to keep him.

This is a compliment to his appearance. He shouldn't be angry about this kind of thing?

After An Ning saw Bai Wuxin's peerless swordsmanship, she was first shocked and then delighted.

Everyone around my brother is so awesome.

That proves that my brother is even more powerful.

Tang Bandit was very satisfied with the result. He looked at Lei Zongnan and asked, "President Lei, are my conditions acceptable?"

"Do you think you can do whatever you want by killing them?" Lei Zongnan didn't want to just admit defeat.

Because he knows better than anyone else that admitting defeat means everything is lost.

Including life.

In troubled times, only the power in your hands is your foundation.

The position of the president has been handed over, the shrine has been handed over, the black robe under his hands is dead, and the parishioners below are just helpless people, and they will fall to whichever side the wind is strong.

At that time, it was not up to the Tang bandits to decide whether to kill or behead?

"Isn't it possible?" Tang Bandit asked curiously.

"If I'm not mistaken, did you drink that cup of Swallow's Nest just now?" Lei Zongnan's eyes were stern, and a smile of success appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Drink it. Good tea." Tang Bandit nodded.

"If I tell you, three drops of Siyin herbal juice were dropped into the tea. This is the secret recipe of my Flame Shrine. It is silent, tasteless, and highly toxic. There is no cure except the Taiyang Powder of our Flame God Sect."

Lei Zongnan glanced at An Ning and said: "I know that the saint is closely related to you, and ordinary medicines will naturally have no effect on you. However, this Siyin herbal juice is a poison that only the leaders of the past generations can master. No one except him can To eliminate this toxicity.”

"So, will you consider my suggestion again?"

Lei Zongnan straightened his spine and stared at Tang Bandit and asked.

To capture the thief, capture the king first.

He has already seen that Tang Bandit is the absolute core of these people.

The Tang bandits were poisoned and the entire base was under their control.

Those three drops of Siyin grass poison allowed him to regain the initiative.

At least that's the momentum.

"I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you." An Ning said loudly, "I changed the tea."

"What?" Lei Zongnan stared at An Ning in surprise.

"You asked Mr. Yan to poison the tea, but Chen Juan is mine. She had already changed the pot before bringing the tea." An Ning said expressionlessly.

"This cheap maid." Lei Zongnan cursed loudly: "If it weren't for me, she would have died long ago. She would have starved to death long ago."

Chen Juan is the woman who serves him, equivalent to his special secretary.

If you have something to do, secretary#￥% will do it, if you have nothing to do, do it@#secretary.

She has always performed her dual role very well, but she didn't expect to turn out to be a traitor.

"When you killed your parents and snatched people away and treated them like animals, you should have thought that such a day would come, right?" An Ning sneered and said with a sarcastic face.

"Did you tell her?"

"She found out on her own, and I happened to have saved her life. So, she was willing to help me."

"."

Lei Zongnan remained silent.

If the poison didn't work, there was nothing he could do.

Abrupt.

His body suddenly jumped up from the sofa, and a pair of blood-red iron palms stretched straight towards Tang Bandit's neck.

This is his only chance.

He and Tang Bandit were very close. If they were able to control him by surprise, they would still have a chance to make a comeback.

Lei Zongnan is also a practitioner, and his level is not low.

Ruyi's top grade is already one step away from being a little grandmaster.

However, it was this step that made him walk for seventeen years, and until now he was unable to break through the mountain gate and spy on higher-level martial arts.

Originally, he wanted to hold on but held his breath.

Year after year passed, and he despaired.

He started to indulge in wine and sex, and collected money, and his life was more free and comfortable than before.

He practiced Wudang's secret art "Splitting the Muscles and Crossing the Bones to Capture Hands", which was taught to him by an old Taoist priest when he was young.

After decades of hard training, he has practiced this Kung Fu to such a perfection that it is difficult to predict the gods and ghosts.

Otherwise, he would have no chance of becoming the leader of a society in Lingyang Region.

Where are the good people in the shrine?

Without any strength, he would have been eaten dry and all the bones and dregs would be left long ago.

He was very confident in his grappling skills. As long as the Tang bandit fell into his hands, he would never have a chance to escape.

If you resist even a little bit, your muscles and bones will be torn apart, and you will be in agony.

Close.

He felt that his fingertips were already touching Tang Bandit's flesh.

Very tender and smooth.

Crack!

A black brilliance flashed.

The smile on Lei Zongnan's face froze.

My body was cold and my heart was sinking.

His body threw himself into Tang Bandit's arms, but he failed to grab fate's throat.

Because his outstretched right hand was missing, he felt that it did not exist.

Only half of the arm was left.

That hand was cut off by Tang Bandit's sword.

The Yin Erosion Sword had appeared in his hand at some point.

"You're too slow!"

Tang Bandit patted his back and whispered in his ear.

Lei Zongnan's left hand turned into a sharp claw and thrust one claw into Tang Bandit's head.

Now he doesn't want to be captured, he just wants to kill him.

Even if you die, you will have someone to support you.

Bang!

Tang Bandi kicked out and Lei Zongnan's entire body flew out.

Tang Bandi's body disappeared on the sofa, and when he reappeared, he was already standing on top of Lei Zongnan's body.

Yes, Lei Zongnan was flying in the air, and Tang Bandit stepped on Lei Zongnan's body with his feet, as if he was flying with a sword.

But he was only controlling people.

Stomping his left foot heavily on his chest, Lei Zongnan's body fell towards the ground.

Click!

Torn apart.

Eyes wide open, eyes wide open.

Tang Bandi's body fell lightly to the ground, and he didn't even look at Lei Zongnan again. His eyes fell on Mr. Yan.

"Do you know why I didn't kill you?" Tang Bandit asked.

Mr. Yan bowed deeply, then raised his head and looked directly into Tang Bandit's eyes, and said in an extremely frank manner: "The Flame Shrine has a public warehouse, but Lei Zongnan personally has three private warehouses. The private warehouse is larger than the public warehouse. The ones that are really valuable The treasures are all in private warehouses. Only I know about these three private warehouses.”

Tang Bandit squinted his eyes and smiled, and said, "I know Mr. Yan is a smart man, and I like to deal with smart people."

"Thank you, Master, for the compliment."

"." Bai Wuxin.

This sycophant.

"."peaceful.

Why didn't I think of that?

What a pity, I should have thought of it first.

"Leader?" Tang Bandit looked at Mr. Yan playfully, with a faint smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.

"With the leader's majestic spirit, the Lingyang Branch is obviously unable to satisfy the leader's appetite. Therefore, if I guessed correctly, the leader must be ready to swallow the entire Flame Shrine. "

"I just shouted it out a few days in advance. I believe that it won't be long before the position of leader will fall into your hands. This position belongs to you alone."

"Oh? Flame Shrines are spread all over the nine states of the seventeenth district of Blue Star. They are so powerful and powerful. Do you really believe that I can succeed?"

"They are just a bunch of rabble." Mr. Yan said with a look of disdain: "The leader has profound cultivation, and there are many strong people around him, who respond to every call."

"There are also powerful ships and guns brought from Xinxing. Machinery and martial arts are advancing hand in hand. It can be said to be a dimensionality reduction strike. How can those people be the opponents of the leader?"

"What about the power of faith?" Tang Bandit asked.

"Belief?" Mr. Yan's face became more sarcastic, and he said loudly: "Although the Flame Shrine believes in the God of Fire, what everyone does is just hug together to keep warm. The more people there are, the more powerful they are. You can bully the side with fewer people.”

"If it were the Flame Shrine in its early days, and everyone had faith, thought in one place, worked hard in one place, and were willing to sacrifice their lives and blood for the Flame God, it would be really scary."

"After hundreds of years of development, both the upper echelons of the shrine and the gray robes below all put profits first, are greedy and lustful, and harm the public and themselves."

"This is the case in Lingyang Region, and it is the same in all other regions. Lei Zongnan's family property is more than the public property of the entire Flame Shrine."

"At this time, how is it possible for the people below to have no distracting thoughts and to be loyal to themselves at the expense of their own lives?"

"As long as we solve the problem of food and clothing for everyone, let everyone have enough food and warm clothes, then everyone will naturally be satisfied and everyone will be very willing to change to a new leader."

"Sounds good."

Tang Bandit looked at Mr. Yan with a smile and asked, "You don't like Lei Zongnan?"

"When I worked for Lei Zongnan, I liked him." Mr. Yan responded. He understood what Tang Bandit was worried about: "Be in his position, find his position, and take his responsibilities."

"Lei Zongnan respects me and provides me with food and drink. So I have to serve him."

"Now, I have a new master. I will also work hard to serve my master."

"I am not a person who can easily trust others, but I am willing to give you a chance." Tang Bandi said aloud.

"Thank you, Master." Mr. Yan bowed again.

Tang Bandit looked at Bai Wuxin and said, "Let Chen Fenglei bring people over to take over the palace."

"Let the black robes from each region come to the shrine for a meeting. Those who don't come will be killed as traitors."

"Ask Yan Jingnian to send people to inspect the public warehouse to see how much food is in it and calculate how long it can feed the people in the base and the community."

"Also, let the medical team come over and be unified and deployed by An Ning. The top priority is to help the people in the community solve the problem of the plague virus."

"yes."

Bai Wuxin responded, turned and left.

Tang Bandit looked at Mr. Yan and said, "Keep the private warehouse for now. I will send someone to take it over when the time comes."

"Yes, leader. I will take care of you first." Mr. Yan nodded in agreement.

Tang Bandit looked at An Ning and said with a smile: "I originally planned to kill a group of people and keep a group of others, but I didn't expect that Xiaobai started too quickly and killed them all. It shouldn't have any impact, right?"

"It's okay." An Ning shook her head and said comfortingly: "Originally, what we wanted was to maintain the original system so that the organizational framework within the society would not collapse."

"Now we have to apply pesticides and put out grains. If they still can't be used by us, let them fend for themselves."

"In troubled times, people are as cheap as grass. It is difficult to survive alone, and those predator organizations will not let them go."

"I believe they can make smart choices."

"Yes." Tang Bandit nodded and said, "The first step has been hastily completed. How to start the second step?"

"Originally, I wanted to keep Lei Zongnan, and then let him take me into the shrine headquarters, and find an opportunity to catch all those white and red robes. It would be best to capture the leader alive."

"With Lei Zongnan dead, we have lost the link with the headquarters. If we attack hard, the sacrifice will be greater. We have to find another way."

Those people Tang Bandit brought from Xinxing, whether they were his own ghosts, Yan Jingnian's Black Cavalry of the Overwatch Council, or Chen Fenglei's Hive, were all heroes who could equal one to a hundred.

If these people died in the battle with the Flame Shrine, it would make Tang Bandit heartbroken.

How can porcelain touch tiles?

He hopes to use the Flame Shrine as the basis and dismantle the people he brought back into each region as the backbone, so that they can indirectly control the entire Flame Shrine on his behalf.

If the former members of the Flame Club still hold these important roles, firstly, there will be no loyalty, and they will only continue their previous style. When the vested interests that pressure them die, they will become the new vested interests.

In their eyes, they only have themselves, no shrine, and no leader like him.

The second is that there is no organizational discipline, everyone does their own thing and is responsible for their own affairs. The whistles were blown, but no Master Wang came to court. Why would such a person come?

The most important thing is that they have no fighting ability, are timid, casual, and idle. The Tang bandits are not willing to use that precious food to raise a bunch of trash.

At that time, he will organize these people to join the army according to the regular army on Xinxing, and they will conduct high-intensity training according to the army's style.

Even the candidate has been found, and that is General He Xiaohua, his father's close comrade-in-arms.

A woman can break out of an army dominated by men and become one of her father's capable generals. Isn't it easy to help organize a few teams?

The Tang bandits needed people and a large number of troops.

This is the basis and confidence for him to counterattack Xinxing and compete with the Shen family to seize the fate of the country.

An Ning looked at Tang Bandit, with a smile in his eyes, and said softly: "Brother, I have a way."

'elder brother? ’

Mr. Yan was shocked.

He knew that the saint should be related to the Tang bandit, but was this relationship too close?

Lei Zongnan did not lose unjustly.

My heart was in turmoil, but my face was calm.

I didn't hear it.

I heard nothing.

"What can we do?" Tang Bandit asked, looking at An Ning.

"A red-robed man from the shrine headquarters came to Lingyang for inspection, but accidentally contracted a serious disease. At the critical moment, I saved his life and formed a good relationship."

"If I take my brother to visit the headquarters, he should be willing to help us."

Tang Bandit was overjoyed and said with a smile: "I believe he will be happy to make a friend like me."
