Chapter 81 The fox pretends to be the tiger's power
The three groups of people rushed to the provincial government office and saw the crowds of people jostling for position in front of the gate and rushing inside like crazy. They knew that they had found the root of the problem.

After climbing over the wall, I saw Liu Baiyun and others holding off the crowd, vaguely protecting Xiao Si behind them.

Although Liu Baiyun had previously shown off her power to the three sects in Taishan Sect, after seeing the note she left, several people realized that it was mostly a warning.

So without saying much, they stepped forward to help Liu Baiyun and others fight the enemy.

As for Zhou Yingxue's strange words... In fact, the two of them had never gotten along well in the past, and it wasn't just a matter of the past few days. When Liu Baiyun held her back that day, he was actually seeking revenge.

Zhou Yingxue came to help, so Liu Baiyun naturally couldn't refute and had to keep silent.

Both of them were top-notch masters, the best among the best, and they had known each other for many years. Even if they didn't like each other, they could cooperate seamlessly at this moment.

Gao Ling loudly explained the key points of dealing with the Gu soldiers, and several leaders understood what he meant.

With the joining of three factions, the crisis was greatly eased, and Wang Hai finally had time to withdraw from the battle circle, regulate his breathing and restore his true energy.

After all, he was still young and his Qi was limited, so he couldn't compare to Liu Baiyun and the others. Even if he was slightly better than Mei Qinghe, he was almost at the bottom at this time.

Wang Hai walked over to Xiao Si and asked in a low voice, "Fourth sister, is it almost done?"

"There's no need to save everyone. Saving 50% to 60% is enough."

Xiao Si stretched out his wrist, tore off the bandage, and dripped some blood into the basin.

This method of gathering Gu can only be effective with fresh blood. If Xiao Si keeps dripping blood into it intermittently, the effect of gathering Gu will become worse and worse.

If the gathered people disperse at that time, all the previous efforts will be wasted.

"Wait a little longer... Brother Hai, wait a little longer... We are almost there..."

Xiao Si's face became paler and paler, which made Wang Hai feel distressed.

But the two of them knew each other very well. Wang Hai knew that hidden beneath Xiao Si's weak girlish appearance was a heart as stubborn to the point of paranoia as his.

Wang Hai had no choice but to grit his teeth and said, "Okay, let's wait a little longer."

After saying that, he grabbed Mei Qinghe's left arm, his hand turned red, and white smoke came out slowly.

Mei Qinghe's wound also slowly stopped bleeding.

Wang Hai was taught by Li Miao, and he also knows the healing skills, but not as profound as Li Miao. But it is enough for emergencies.

Wang Hai let go, regulated his breathing and restored his internal energy, while watching the life-and-death struggle in front of him.

He secretly judged in his heart that in about half an hour, he would have to forcefully take Xiao Si and escape.

At the same time, the leader of the Ming Cult's Flood Flag came to the outside of the city gate with his disciples.

This group of people were actually originally stationed near the Taishan Sect, preparing manpower for the plan on Mount Tai.

He received Mao Yingxia's message in a hurry and rushed all the way, and just arrived in Tai'an City at this time.

All the soldiers and yamen runners in Tai'an were taken to Mount Tai by Cheng Yuanzhen and killed. Currently, there were only a dozen old, weak and sick people guarding the city gate.

The leader of the Hongshui Banner turned a blind eye and was about to order his men to kill a few people and open the city gate.

At this moment, the sound of horse hooves was heard approaching slowly from not far away.

The leader of the Flood Banner turned his head and his pupils shrank.

There was only one person, riding on a horse, wearing the uniform of an imperial guard! He was carrying an embroidered spring sword!

And on his waist, there was a badge with the title of a captain of the Embroidered Uniform Guard hanging clearly.

The man rode his horse to the city gate, turned sideways to face the Ming Cult people, but had a look of disdain on his face and said nothing.

Seeing this man's behavior, the leader of the flood flag was afraid and did not dare to act rashly. His disciples also stopped. Mao Yingxia sent someone to inform him to come to Tai'an City because he knew that Lan Lechuan was dead.

Lan Lechuan died at the hands of a captain of the Embroidered Uniform Guard named "Li Miao". Naturally, the leader of the Hongshui Banner also knew this news.

Who is Lan Lechuan? The Left Envoy of the Ming Cult! Second only to the Cult Master, and above everyone else!

Before Ji Tianrui's death, he rarely showed up, and the affairs of the sect were almost all decided by Lan Lechuan alone. After Ji Tianrui's death, Lan Lechuan took on the responsibility of running the Ming Cult.

It can be said that in the minds of the people in the Ming Cult, if they were to rank Ji Tianrui and Lan Lechuan, they would really hesitate.

Not to mention Lan Lechuan's martial arts, which was top notch. Except for Yun Zelin, who was rarely seen every day, no one in the sect could defeat him.

Such a character died silently at the hands of a captain of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, and even Zuo Lishan, who was half a step above the top, was killed.

How could the Flood Flag Leader not be afraid and hesitate?

He looked at the captain of the Embroidered Uniform Guard. He was thin, his clothes were loose, his hands and feet were weak, and there was no light in his eyes. He looked clearly like a scholar who was not even capable of tying a chicken.

But the more he thought about it, the more he doubted it: "Is this a return to nature? A restrained charm?"

But what he didn't know was that the palms of the "Jinyiwei Captain" opposite him, who was holding the reins, were also full of sweat.

Of course he is not Li Miao, but Jiao Qingfeng.

He was the one who was temporarily picked by Li Miao to be in charge, the Tai'an Prefecture Li Mu.

Li Miao asked him to change into the Jinyiwei official uniform, and with Li Miao's badge, he patrolled the city gates.

If they encountered someone who neglected his duty, they would kill him. If they encountered a gangster who was causing trouble, they would scare him away with this outfit.

Jiao Qingfeng was of course trembling with fear at first, but he was a native of Tai'an after all. After hearing the screams in the city, he gradually realized how heavy the burden he was carrying.

So he also began to muster up his spirits and tried hard to show off the official authority that did not exist in the first place.

Jiao Qingfeng had just killed a soldier who was trying to open a city gate at another city gate due to panic.

After seeing the blood and vomiting, his character became more refined.

When I got here, I saw from afar the leader of the flood flag leading his men over with a bad look on his face.

He thought of a quick solution and ordered his soldiers to stay away. He rode on his horse, pretending to be calm and composed, and slowly walked over.

By accident, he frightened the leader of the flood flag.

Aren’t you feeling awkward right now?
The wolf is afraid of both ends, and both Jiao Qingfeng and the leader of the Hongshui flag were unwilling to speak first.

The leader of the Hongshui Banner was waiting for "Li Miao" to speak, but Jiao Qingfeng was completely in the dark and had no idea what was going on in the underworld. He couldn't even make a conscious effort.

I waited anxiously while trying to remain calm, but there was an eerie silence.

However, not everyone present here can tell the difference clearly.

A trembling voice broke the silence: "Master Jiao...Master Jiao, this..."

It turned out to be a soldier guarding the gate. Seeing that the atmosphere was heavy and the other side had not taken any action, he spoke softly, wanting to ask Jiao Qingfeng what was going on.

He thought he was whispering, but with the Flood Flag Leader's good hearing skills, he could hear it clearly.

"Jiao? Not Li?" He looked surprised.

When Jiao Qingfeng saw the expression on the face of the flood flag leader, he started to panic.

These few people outside the city gate can't stop these gangsters on the opposite side.

His mind raced, his expression remained calm, and he ignored the soldier, instead he said in a loud voice: "Who are you? Tell me your name!"
