Chapter 115 What a loud tone

The main hall of Linfeng Hall is spacious and bright.

In the center of the hall there was a big chair, behind which was a copybook, on which was written a simple character "武" in a flamboyant style, exuding a sense of competence.

Under the big chair, eighteen types of weapons including swords, spears, knives, halberds, etc. were arranged behind the four chairs on the left and right, shining with a cold light.

At this time, the four chairs were already occupied, and the one leading the group was a woman.

She was wearing plain white casual clothes, which was particularly eye-catching.

"What wind brings Captain Wang here today?" Li Linfeng's hearty laughter came from outside the door.

Soon, he walked into the hall surrounded by four disciples including Ouyang Tiezhu.

Everyone sitting on the chairs stood up, clasped their hands together and greeted each other.

The leader, Wang Yanjun, said, "Since this concerns the peace of Taiping County, we have no choice but to come and bother Master Li."

Li Linfeng glanced at the female squad leader of the Weiwu Division.

She has an impressive figure, a straight back, and exudes a heroic spirit.

The exquisite badge hanging around her waist showed her official status, and the sword and rope she carried made her look difficult to deal with.

In today's world, the Great Zhou does not prohibit women from learning martial arts.

It’s just that women’s natural physical constitution is not as good as men’s, and having children and monthly sex causes depletion of Qi and blood.

It's not easy to get ahead.

Wang Yanjun was born into the Wang family and belonged to the same family as the Wang Dong family in the county town. He had acquired many skills at a young age.

I didn’t know how it worked, but I ended up in the Imperial Guard.

In just a few years, he had utilized the court's martial arts resources to cultivate to the Qi-nourishing realm.

He is also a remarkable figure in Taiping County.

Li Linfeng retracted his gaze, sat in the main seat and said, "I wonder what exactly Wang Bantou is referring to?"

Wang Yanjun said calmly, "Master Li, you have heard about the tiger monster in Shicheng Mountain, right?"

"I've heard a little bit about it." Li Linfeng picked up a teacup brought in by the maids and said, "What's the situation now?"

Wang Yanjun's eyes were deep and bright, and he said in a straightforward manner: "To be honest with you, Hall Master Li, according to the reports from the people below, more than a dozen hunting villages near Shicheng Mountain have all been killed, and nearly a thousand people have been killed or injured. Basically, the area below Shicheng Mountain has become a deserted place now."

"This..." Li Linfeng knew that the tiger was a little difficult to deal with, but he didn't expect it to be this difficult.

Wang Yanjun stared at Li Linfeng and said in a stern tone: "If we continue to let this evil tiger develop like this, the whole Taiping County may be in great trouble. We have been besieged and suppressed many times and suffered heavy losses, so I came to ask for help from Master Li to allocate some manpower to us to help us eliminate this evil tiger."

Li Linfeng asked, "Is this what the county magistrate meant?"

Wang Yanjun nodded and said, "We have already notified the Divine Hand Sect, the Blood Gang, and the Flying Eagle Hall. Everyone knows that the situation is critical and is willing to lend a hand. Now all that is left is for Hall Master Li to express his stance."

As he spoke, the corners of Wang Yanjun's mouth rose slightly, with a barely perceptible smile.

Li Linfeng waved his hand and said to the maidservants beside him, "Don't just stand there. Go and add more tea for the master."

The two maids were terrified and hurriedly lowered their heads, following closely to pour tea and water for Wang Yanjun and other officials and runners of the Weiwu Division.

Wang Yanjun's momentum, which had been built up, was easily interrupted by the actions of these maids.

She frowned, feeling somewhat dissatisfied.

However, this dissatisfaction soon disappeared without showing. Li Linfeng said sincerely: "Since it is the county magistrate who has spoken, we, as the people under the rule of the Great Zhou, should support it. But there is one thing that I am very curious about. It is just a tiger, why did it go to such a point?"

Before Wang Yanjun could speak, an official from the Weiwu Division who was sitting next to her stood up, clasped his fists and said, "Master, you don't know. We are not exaggerating. This tiger is not an ordinary tiger, but a real demon tiger."

"This tiger can speak human language, understand human nature, and even control ghosts. It is really incredible. I have never seen a monster like it in my life. That is why we have been unable to capture it for a long time. Please help me."

"Is there such a thing?" Li Linfeng was very surprised.

Wang Yanjun nodded and said, "This matter is too strange. The county magistrate is worried about causing unnecessary unrest, so he has blocked the news and only told the public about Menghu. It is normal that Hall Master Li does not know about it."

Li Linfeng still had an expression of disbelief on his face. It was obvious that the fact that a wild beast could speak human language overturned his cognition.

"If I hadn't heard it from you, I would have suspected that this was a story from a book."

A male official from the Weiwu Division who was sitting on a chair said solemnly, "Let's get back to the point. I wonder how many people Hall Master Li is willing to support us this time?"

When Li Linfeng heard that something serious was about to happen, he immediately became very alert.

The Weiwu Division is coming with great force this time and will not stop until they achieve their goal.

In addition, he did not have much friendship with the current county magistrate, so there would be no possibility of any reward for working for the government this time.

He pondered for a long time and said, "I will give you three inner court disciples, ten outer court disciples, and one personal disciple to help you. How about that?"

Even though there aren't many disciples in Linfeng Hall, after so many years of operation, the hall has accumulated quite a bit of experience.

If you give enough benefits, you can still attract a lot of people.

It just depends on how much benefit is given.

"Not enough, too little." Wang Yanjun said indifferently.

"Then how much does Captain Wang want?" Li Linfeng responded sharply, and his tone became much colder.

"I want four of you as direct disciples, ten from the inner courtyard, and thirty from the outer courtyard."

Swish!
Li Linfeng stood up suddenly: "Wang Bantou is so arrogant, are you kidding me?"

Now he only claimed that he had four direct disciples, and he wanted to recruit them all.

Not only that, he also asked for ten inner court disciples and thirty outer court disciples.

These disciples from the inner and outer courtyards all paid money to learn martial arts from him, and at most they had a master-disciple relationship.

If he wants to trouble them, he has to give them real benefits.

Either tuition and medicine fees are waived, or you can just click and pay.

According to the number Wang Yanjun reported, it would cost at least one or two thousand taels of silver as a minimum, and there is no upper limit.

If an accident happens, all that will be lost is the foundation he has accumulated over the years.

Taiping County is not a good place. If he becomes weak, other gangs and martial arts schools will definitely have ideas about him.

Wang Yanjun's request is not excessive.

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became tense.

Wang Yanjun of the Weiwu Division seemed to have anticipated this. She held the scabbard and pushed it open with her thumb, revealing a section of the silver blade. She smiled and said, "I'm not kidding with Master Li. If you don't want this to happen, Master Li can do it himself. With Master Li's participation, we will have a better chance of killing the tiger this time. What do you think?"
