Without money, what is the point of being a traitor?

Chapter 119 Don’t Panic, Brother
If Yue Qingfeng could hold back from attacking after being bitten by a dog, then Pei Yuan could only bow down and admit defeat to such a ruthless person.

Pei Yuan watched his men put a ferocious dog into a cage, then controlled the cassock to swallow the dog.

The man in the cassock stood up fiercely and pounced forward, and the vicious dog disappeared somewhere in an instant.

Then, Yue Qingfeng's burly figure suddenly appeared in the iron cage.

The iron cage was not very big, and Yue Qingfeng even felt a little cramped inside. He subconsciously covered his eyes with his hands.

Pei Yuan immediately concluded that there should be a dark space inside the cassock.

So when Yue Qingfeng suddenly appeared, his eyes felt uncomfortable due to the exposure to the light.

If this happened in the middle of the day and he was pulled out, he might just faint.

Pei Yuan was thinking about it, and did not delay his actions. The cassock immediately swallowed Yue Qingfeng.

Pei Yuan looked at the vicious dog and thought for a while, then ordered, "Kill the dog."

When I turned around, I saw a big gunner who subconsciously put the torch towards the fuse.

Pei Yuan was stunned.

What the hell is this guy trying to do?
Fortunately, a gunner pushed the man and he suddenly reacted.

Pei Yuan was confused for a while, and asked the other gunners, "Who is this idiot?"

Someone answered nervously, "His name is Hou Qing."

When Hou Qing heard Pei Yuan say this, his face turned a little pale.

Pei Yuan originally wanted to tell this brainless guy to get out of here, but when he turned his eyes, he saw the vicious dog thrown into the iron cage, howling and growling.

So he immediately changed his words and said calmly, "Very good, you are the first person to carry out my orders, you will follow me from now on. If you have any merits this time, I will give you some of them and let you become a small flag directly."

Pei Yuan was very sure that the reward for this life-threatening mission would be huge, and it would be nothing to use a small portion of it to promote a small flag from the seventh rank.

Hou Qing was overjoyed and knelt down to kowtow to Pei Yuan.

Pei Yuan directly pulled him up, looked around, and found Song Chunniang, "Teach him how to follow me later."

Song Chunniang nodded in agreement.

Chen Toutie, who was standing aside, was happily watching the silly newcomer making a fool of himself, but when he heard Pei Yuan say that this was "the first person to execute his orders", his face turned green.

He stared at his personal guards viciously, wishing he could just snatch their bows and crossbows and shoot them to death one by one.

Hou Qing got up and stood next to Song Chunniang. His big stature made Song Chunniang, who was only 1.7 meters tall, look a little petite.

I don’t know if Song Chunniang was deliberately making fun of Chen Toutie, but she waved her hand and Hou Qing immediately lowered his head.

Song Chunniang whispered a few words, and Hou Qing seemed to suddenly realize something. He stretched out his hand without hesitation, snatched a crossbow from the hand of a person next to him, and then pulled the trigger.

The powerful arrow pierced through the iron cage and directly killed the barking vicious dog.

Hou Qing's action seemed to wake up the guards who were watching the fun. They hurriedly began to shoot arrows, shooting the vicious dog like a hedgehog.

Pei Yuan didn't say much and swallowed the vicious dog's body with his cassock.

This time Yue Qingfeng was not brushed out.

It seems that this cassock makes a clear distinction between living and dead things.

Lu Ting said before that the Demon-Subduing Robe would not harm living things, so it must have been modified by the heir of Huangjue Temple.

Pei Yuan thought about it, and asked people to bring a lot of things to start testing the capacity of the cassock.

By the time the dog corpse was swiped out again, Pei Yuan had already estimated the size of the cassock to accommodate a dead object.

The space is about five or six cubic meters.

Very good.

Pei Yuan was about to clear out all the debris when Song Chunniang suddenly said, "The blood on the dog is gone."

Ok?
Pei Yuan was a little surprised. After looking carefully, it seemed that the dirty blood on the dog's body had indeed disappeared.

Pei Yuan was confused and asked the people around him, "Who knows this?"

Seeing that no one answered, Pei Yuan remembered that among the people around him, only Tan Tai Fang Tu could be considered to have seen the world, so he waved and called out, "Captain Tan Tai, come here."

When Tan Tai Fang Tu came over, Pei Yuan told her what happened.

Tan Tai Fang Tu pondered for a moment, then said, "I've always thought this cassock was evil. From the looks of it, it seems to be feeding its soul by sucking blood."

Pei Yuan, a layman, didn't understand what this meant, so he asked bluntly, "Is this a good thing or a bad thing?"

Tan Tai Fang Tu shook his head, "It's hard to say, hard to say."

"The magic weapon is too spiritual, which may not be a good thing for its owner. Moreover, this cassock makes people feel very uncomfortable. Even if you want to raise a spirit later, it is best not to use a vicious dog or something like that. Well, I am afraid that there will be some unknown changes later."

After hearing this, Pei Yuan also felt that this was difficult to implement.

First of all, it is unclear whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, and what degree of discretion should be taken.

Secondly, even if you want to cultivate it, if you create a crazy evil spirit, you will be the one who suffers.

It seems that I have to try my best to avoid exposing this monk's robe to blood in the future.

Then, Pei Yuan began to think about whether this feature could be used in any way.

An idea soon came to me. Since this cassock has a tendency to feed on blood, if I throw an injured person in there, then I don't have to take care of it myself and it will slowly take care of him.
Pei Yuan pondered for a while but couldn't figure out anything.

We also asked people to find some tests such as cats, rabbits, birds, and fish.

The test results show that there is a limit to the size of living things that can be accommodated inside.

Apart from an adult, the largest living creature that can be put in is a cat-sized creature. If there are more, the people who were there before will be eliminated.

Pei Yuan also confirmed that the living creature bound by the cassock was conscious, because when Pei Yuan released the cat again, it was crushed to death.

Moreover, Pei Yuan also verified his previous idea that the cat that was crushed to death by Yue Qingfeng did have symptoms of blood loss.

After a comprehensive analysis, Pei Yuan had a general understanding of the cassock.

The overall performance is quite good, but there are definitely some defects that have not yet been verified.

When facing a strong opponent, it seems that it is impossible to enhance combat power directly.

Didn’t Captain Han easily kill the previous owner of the cassock and give it to himself?
Next, we have to deal with Yue Qingfeng’s issue.

Pei Yuan didn't care much about Yue Qingfeng's life or death or his attitude. The key point was that Pei Yuan had finally set a trap for Yue Qingfeng, and he had to maximize the benefits.

Now Pei Yuan can see Yue Qingfeng's location at any time. Even if he doesn't pay attention and is sneaked up by this guy, as long as Yue Qingfeng sees him for the first time, the system message will pop up and refresh.

The threat posed by Yue Qingfeng to him was already very small.

If we can figure out this guy's position, there will be a lot of room for maneuver.

Pei Yuan thought to himself and signaled everyone to get ready.

Then, Yue Qingfeng was released again.

Yue Qingfeng had been tossed around a few times before and had a rough idea of ​​his current situation.

This time, he covered his eyes with a piece of thin cloth, and immediately drew his sword and chopped. The iron cage had almost no effect and was chopped to pieces.

Pei Yuan signaled his men not to move.

Only by giving Yue Qingfeng an illusion of relative safety can the two sides have the possibility of communication, and avoid risking their lives without even talking.

After Yue Qingfeng came out, he chopped open the iron cage that trapped him with one sword.

Next, he wanted to deal with the strange cassock, but the cassock seemed to be able to understand human nature and slipped away before Yue Qingfeng could take action.

Yue Qingfeng guessed that the other party must have been prepared, so he didn't dare to move for a while.

When he felt his eyes had almost adapted, he took off the thin cloth covering his eyes and looked around.

Then, Yue Qingfeng saw Pei Yuan, wearing a helmet and armor, holding a golden hammer, standing not far away. There were also many bodyguards, pointing bows and crossbows at him.

Yue Qingfeng had also seen big scenes before. He sneered calmly, "Captain Pei, don't underestimate me."

Pei Yuan pointed to the other side expressionlessly, "Look there."

Yue Qingfeng was somewhat suspicious that Pei Yuan was lying to him, but he also felt that it wouldn't be too bad to just take a look.

He tilted his head slightly in alertness, and saw several Jinyiwei armed with bows and crossbows move aside, revealing the black muzzles of the guns behind them.

Several Jinyiwei were holding torches, ready to start a fire at any time.

Yue Qingfeng was simply dumbfounded.

Damn, this is a cannon, right?
Yue Qingfeng turned around blankly and looked at Pei Yuan again.

Pei Yuan explained considerately, "In addition to the bullets, I also put a lot of iron sand in here. You can't hide from it. Master Yue, please have a good talk with me."

Yue Qingfeng wanted to say something tough, "I have nothing to discuss with you!"

But when the words came to my lips, they turned into, "What can I talk to you about?!"

Pei Yuan didn't care about this and asked a sharp question in the first sentence.

"I have one thing that I don't understand. Since Sect Leader Yue despises us court lackeys, why would he help Lu Ting to deal with me?"

When he heard Lu Ting's name, Yue Qingfeng's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and then he said calmly, "I don't know any Lu Ting. I am a man of the underworld. I get paid to do things, that's all."

Get money to do things?

There are indeed many people in the underworld who do things for money.

However, Yue Qingfeng has always hated the evil-doers like the factory guards. After Cheng Zhihu joined the Suppressing Evil Thousand Households Unit, Yue Qingfeng could drive away even his eldest disciple without hesitation.

No matter what he showed or what he did in private, he didn't seem like someone who would take money from the factory guards.

Pei Yuan said calmly, "Since you said you want to get paid, then I'll give you money and ask you to deal with Lu Ting. Will you do it?"

Deal with Lu Ting?

Yue Qingfeng's eyes lit up slightly, but he quickly said subconsciously, "I don't associate with the court's lackeys..."

Having said this, he suddenly shut up.

Pei Yuan could already roughly see something.

Yue Qingfeng was indeed not of the same kind as these court lackeys. Lu Ting must have something on him, so Yue Qingfeng had no choice but to cooperate with him.

It’s just that people of the world are people of the world.

I'm thinking too simply.

After arriving in Suzhou, Pei Yuan changed his camp and immediately became friendly with the red-named Lu Ting.

Considering the favor Lu Ting owed him and Lu Ting's admiration for him, what did it matter if Pei Yuan asked him about a man in the underworld?
Pei Yuan looked at Yue Qingfeng with a hint of a smile on his face.

Some people swear to keep a secret, but to the person who controls them, it may just be a joke among friends...

Once I have mastered Yue Qingfeng's secret, can't Yue Qingfeng become my dog?
Pei Yuan turned his head and looked for it, then threw the chicken leg that he had used to test the opponent to Yue Qingfeng.

Yue Qingfeng didn't understand what he meant. He swallowed and still caught it with his hand.

Pei Yuan said, "I have to fight with Lu Ting recently. We have some friendship before. Before that, I don't want to fall out with you."

Having said that, the blood-red cassock, which had quietly slipped back at some point, suddenly leaped up and pounced towards Yue Qingfeng again.

Yue Qingfeng noticed it, turned around quickly, and was about to release sword energy.

Then Pei Yuan shouted from behind, "Prepare the artillery."

Yue Qingfeng held the chicken leg in his hand, his eyes flashed, and he understood what Pei Yuan meant.

The veins on his temples were throbbing, but he didn't dare to bet on the power of the cannon. He could only watch helplessly as the blood-red robe swallowed him again.

Pei Yuan solved Yue Qingfeng's problem and had one less thing to worry about.

His own team has ushered in an unprecedented wave of reinforcement, and now he has to find a way to create a time difference with Lu Ting.

He said to Tan Tai Fang Tu, "Hurry up and rest and prepare. We will set off early tomorrow morning."

The next day, after a short rest, the team set out again.

Pei Yuan organized the team.

Cheng Leixiang and Chen Toutie led a dozen personal guards to serve as Pei Yuan's bodyguards. In addition, there were two little followers, Song Chunniang and Hou Qing.

The old but still strong Tan Tai Fangtu brought fifty Jinyiwei to serve as the main force of the team.

Sikong Sui, this scumbag, led a dozen people and supervised the transportation of weapons, supplies and the bodies of the assassins by the able-bodied men conscripted from Yixing County.

Ji Xin, with about twenty musketeers and a hundred yamen runners who served as servants, followed the vehicle transporting the weapons.

The nine artillerymen also guarded the tightly covered falconet closely.

Compared with the previous time when Pei Yuan and his three companions rushed in blindly, this time they suddenly formed a team of considerable size.

Pei Yuan even had to start considering supplies and rest along the way.

Changzhou Prefecture was under the jurisdiction of Nanzhili, and had five counties under its jurisdiction: Yixing, Jingjiang, Jiangyin, Wujin and Wuxi.

The group left Yixing, briefly entered Wujin, and soon approached the area of ​​Wuxi.

Pei Yuan no longer expected the imperial post station to be of any use. As night fell, he simply led his convoy to the side of the road and built a temporary camp.

Rather than facing those planned plots, Pei Yuan would rather start a war in an environment where both sides are unprepared.

Pei Yuan has this Portuguese cannon that Han Qianhu secretly prepared, and it will definitely give Lu Ting a big surprise when the time comes.

Just as the strong men surrounded the car, lit a fire and prepared dinner.

Cheng Leixiang, who was on guard outside, hurried over to report to Pei Yuan, "Sir, a large group of troops is approaching this way."

Pei Yuan's heart was tense at first, but then he felt relieved that he was finally going to meet her.

Just as he was about to ask his men to prepare for battle, he heard someone shouting in a loud voice from afar, "Don't panic, my dear brother, I, Lu Dahua, am here to help you!"
