Astral Apostle - Chapter 258
[Two hundred and forty-six righteousness and surrender]
These Tianwangzhai leaders were all wounded and disheartened. Among them, Lu Longchuan was unconscious. He was placed on a stretcher.
Fang Zhen was startled and said in amazement, “Yo, how could he be injured so badly, is he going to die?”
At this time, Lu Sheng on the side took the first two steps, clasped his fists and said:
“Don’t worry, leaders, this Lu Longchuan has a great life, and he didn’t hurt his vital points. I have already applied herbs to him, and most likely he will not die.”
When everyone heard the words, they turned their heads to look at Lu Sheng, and their faces became surprised.
“Good man, is it you who captured Lu Longchuan with a group of rural braves?”
“Yes, it’s Lu Sheng below.”
Lu Sheng nodded.
Fang Zhen’s interest was soaring, and he urged, “Tell me now, how did you catch him.”
Everyone was also very interested, and they all wondered how Lu Longchuan was planted in the hands of a group of villagers, and he was beaten to death.
“I want to teach all the leaders to know that this Lulongchuan is passing through Suolongling, and he wants to find a guide…”
Lu Sheng explained the process eloquently, neither humble nor arrogant.
After hearing this, everyone couldn’t help but look at it with admiration.
Guo Haishen couldn’t help but praise:
“Although Lu Longchuan was a defeated soldier, there were hundreds of people, and he was not an ordinary countryman. Brother Lu was not afraid. General Fang panicked and fell into the trap, he was bold, careful, courageous and resourceful, and he was a hero!”
Lu Sheng immediately clasped his fists and said in a loud voice: “Guo Er’s family has been praised, to be honest, I have admired Longwangzhai for a long time, and when I heard that the imperial court was attacking, I always wanted to do my best. This defeated army wants to go up the mountain to join the army and join forces with all the heroes!”
“Okay!” Chen Feng shouted ok, then nodded and said, “Brother Lu captured the enemy leader, this is a great achievement, so please go up the mountain and take a seat.”
Lu Sheng was overjoyed and made a loud statement: “I would like to serve the master of the village!”
People have made such a big contribution, and naturally everyone has no objection, and they have accepted the new leader.
Chen Feng turned his head to look at Lu Longchuan and the others. Sun Rong was the only one in good condition.
“Wait, do you have something to say?”
Hearing this, Sun Rong smiled bitterly and said, “Chen Zhaizhu, we admit our fault, and we hope to send a doctor to treat the leader of my family and temporarily save his life.”
“You can… take them back to the cottage and deal with them.”
Chen Feng nodded casually and asked his subordinates to escort a group of prisoners into the team.
…
The purpose of the group’s pursuit was to capture the enemy leader.
When he returned to Longwangzhai, Chen Feng did not delay, and summoned all the leaders of Tianwangzhai captured.
In addition to Lu Longchuan’s group of a dozen people, dozens of leaders have long been captured.
Some were captured directly on the battlefield, while others were chased and caught after they were separated. In total, there were more than 50 leaders, accounting for more than half of Tianwangzhai.
As for the rest of the leaders, they have been fleeing to death, and they have no whereabouts.
In the hall, all the leaders of Tianwangzhai were escorted in, all of them dejected.
All the leaders of Longwangzhai sat in their own chairs, staring at the group of prisoners.
Chen Fengfeng was expressionless and spoke at will:
“Come on, untie the leaders.”
As soon as the voice fell, a minion immediately came up to loosen the ropes of everyone in Tianwangzhai.
Everyone’s face changed, but even if they regained their freedom, they did not dare to resist.
They all know Chen Feng’s ability, this person is like a needle that calms the waves in their hearts.
Lu Longchuan’s injuries were not healed, his face was pale and still weak, and he took the initiative to speak:
“Chen Zhaizhu, my skills are not as good as others, and I have nothing to say. If you want to kill you, you have to kill them.”
His demeanor was desolate, his back was hunched and old, and he was disheartened because he had lost his foundation.
Hearing this, many leaders of Tianwangzhai also shouted,
They all look like they are willing to die generously.
However, they didn’t speak ill of Chen Feng. Although they were arrested after a disastrous defeat, they dared not accept the defeat. Chen Feng’s bravery had already overwhelmed them.
However, Xiang Tianjie didn’t speak, and he was not feeling well.
He has been imprisoned by Lu Longchuan. He was not captured on the battlefield, but when Tianwangzhai was defeated, no one came to control him. He was captured in the cell and transferred directly to the prison of Longwangzhai. No chance.
Chen Feng looked around at the crowd and waited for them to be quiet before slowly opening his mouth:
“Your Tianwangzhai was once a hero in the green forest, but you were willing to be the servants of the imperial court. The fame you have accumulated over the years has been lost in one go. People in the green forest are suspicious of dogs. Is there a trace of shame?”
As soon as these words came out, many leaders were ashamed.
Lu Longchuan’s face twitched, and he said sullenly, “Chen Feng, if you win, you will win. What are you going to do to humiliate me? Just chop off our heads!”
Chen Feng shook his head: “In any case, Tianwangzhai is kind to my eldest brother, I can let you all go and let you go back.”
Everyone was stunned for a moment, then widened their eyes, surprised.
His group has been wiped out, is the other party still willing to let the tiger go back to the mountain?
Guo Haishen’s face changed slightly: “Second brother, I…”
Chen Feng waved his hand to stop him from speaking, and said sternly:
“I not only don’t want your life, but also give you another choice… stay in my village and join the team, return to the green forest, and save my fame.”
Everyone’s face changed.
Xiang Tianjie said in a deep voice, “You want to recruit me and wait?”
Chen Feng nodded without concealing: “Yes, although you have been recruited by the imperial court, but after two years, you should have seen the face of the imperial court officials. Cooking, let us both suffer, and now you have been defeated and lost, and there is no good fruit to eat when you go back.”
Everyone’s faces were gloomy.
Chen Feng continued: “Everyone was once a hero in the green forest, a hero who stood up to the sky. If you still want to go back to curry favor with the traitorous officials, cling to the powerful, and betray yourself, I will not stop you. If you are willing to stay, join us in the grand event, then submit to me.”
Before waiting for everyone to respond, he paused, pointed at Lu Longchuan, and his tone became cold:
“But only Commander Lu is not included. You personally led the Tianwangzhai to join the imperial court, and then came to attack me, etc., and killed many of our sons. It would be good not to kill you, since it is impossible to keep you. Chen is ashamed of being with You are in the company, and in a few days, you will roll down the mountain for me, and don’t be an eyesore in front of grandpa.”
Lu Longchuan’s face suddenly flushed.
Hearing Chen Feng’s proposal just now, his mind also became active, and he was still thinking about whether to agree or not. He didn’t expect the other party to directly express his position but not himself, and his contempt was beyond words.
Seeing this, the leaders of Tianwangzhai looked at each other, looking hesitant.
They are also a little excited about the choice to stay in Longwangzhai. If Lu Longchuan agrees, then they will join in immediately without thinking… But Chen Feng made it clear that he does not want Lu Longchuan, so what should they do?
Is it because of the loyalty of the brothers for many years, to follow Lu Longchuan back to the court?
Or cut off the robe and cut off the righteousness, no longer follow Lu Longchuan, and simply stay in the Dragon King Village?
Lu Longchuan gritted his teeth, knowing that the other party would not accept him, so he broke the jar and asked, “Chen Feng, now that you have established your power, what are your intentions? Do you want to always occupy the mountain as king and cause chaos in the world?”
Chen Feng glanced at him, suddenly got up, and said loudly to everyone present:
“Brothers, since I entered Huyang, I have become the master of the sky in the eyes of the people just by defending the people’s grievances. I have also distributed a lot of land to farmers to reclaim the land, so that the farmers can have their own fields, and they are grateful for the lack of exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes. Woman, can you live a winter without starving to death… Just like this, it is better than most of the people in this world. It can be seen how oppressed and humiliated by the government, how can there be no resentment from the people?
In today’s world, those nobles and gentry treat the grass people like pigs and dogs, loot the people’s fat and cream, suck their blood and sweat, harm the public, fat and private, and care about the life and death of the grass people in vain, and no one can do anything about them.
I gathered in the mountains and forests, just to cleanse the world for the heaven and the earth, and to slaughter all these noble families and noble families who knocked on the people’s bones and sucked the marrow.
No matter what kind of landlords or nobles, if you see them, kill them, and teach them to know that if you don’t put on an official skin, you can be superior to others, and you can poop and pee while riding on the head. !
”
Lu Longchuan’s face twitched: “Could it be that you really want to rebel? This is an outrageous thing!”
Chen Feng waved his hand and shouted:
“The imperial court is your father? Why don’t you dare to go against it! Since the imperial court regards me as a traitor, what fear do I have to wait for a hero to come and rise up?”
“Brother said well!”
The crowd was excited and applauded.
If in the early days of building the village, he shouted out the words of rebellion, perhaps many leaders would have concerns.
But after years of nurturing, coupled with the trust of winning consecutive battles, now that Chen Feng called for rebellion, everyone didn’t panic at all, and the reverence and yearning for the orthodoxy of the imperial court had disappeared. Lawless people.
Many leaders of Tianwangzhai were also stunned. It was the first time that they heard Chen Feng describe his ambitions in person.
Most of them also came from the poor, and they were not born to like those in power.
After a while of commotion, Xiang Tianjie suddenly gritted his teeth, as if he had made up his mind, and strode out of the queue.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he clenched his fists towards Lu Longchuan and said slowly:
“Commander Lu, I have followed you for more than ten years in the southern and northern wars. I have always followed you. You were a hero, you were a hero, and I was willing to lead the horse and whip for you. Later, the Tianwangzhai became bigger and bigger, and you said that you would take your brothers with you. Although I am not happy to accept recruiting, I also obey orders.
But since you were recruited, you have become more and more fickle, clinging to the powerful and courting traitors. In my eyes, you are no longer the heavenly king you used to be.
This time, I sent troops to Huyang with you, and I have lost so many brothers. I have already fulfilled my loyalty and benevolence. From now on, I will no longer follow you. Today, I will tear my robe and break my righteousness, and I will have nothing to do with you again!
”
After saying that, Xiang Tianjie tore off a piece of robe and threw it on the ground.
Before everyone could recover, Xiang Tianjie turned to Chen Feng, clasped his fists and said in a deep voice:
“Chen Zhai master is a hero in the world, I would like to stay in Huyang and be a pawn under Chen Zhai master’s account!”
“You, you…” Lu Longchuan was stunned, trembling with anger, and pointed at Xiang Tianjie.

At this moment, he almost believed that this Tianjie was the traitor who collaborated with the enemy!
Seeing someone taking the lead, a few more familiar leaders looked at each other, suddenly stood out, and said in unison:
“I don’t want to be a servant of the imperial court, and I am willing to serve the Lord Chen Zhai!”
Soon, more and more leaders stood up and expressed their willingness to stay.
Many people originally admired Chen Feng, and they were not willing to make peace in their hearts. Now, after thinking about the pros and cons, they all had no intention of returning to the imperial court, and they simply fell into trouble again.
When these people made this choice, there were also factors that made the alienation plan take effect. They still remember the original “secret letter from the imperial court” – after the ups and downs after the defeat, they felt more and more that they saw Lu Longchuan clearly, and they were taking advantage of the brothers. With his life as a stepping stone for his promotion, he has long been estranged from morality.
For a time, the scene seemed like Lulongchuan betrayed his relatives and separated, and each leader cut off his robe and righteousness with him.
Only Sun Rong and other ten leaders were hesitant, still standing beside Lu Longchuan.
“Brothers, you are so heartless…”
Lu Longchuan’s lips trembled.
Suddenly, he rolled his eyes and fell to the ground with a plop. He was so angry that his heart pounded, and his injuries were not healed, so he fainted.
Chen Feng’s expression did not change, he waved his hand and said, “Come here, take Commander Lu back, and when he is almost healed, drive him down the mountain!”
Seeing Lu Longchuan’s appearance, the leaders who had expressed their resignation secretly sighed and shook their heads silently.
People will change, such leaders, they no longer want to work for them.
Immediately afterwards, they looked at Chen Feng, and the expressions in their eyes changed.
Such a peerless fierce man, I don’t know how many years there is only one, and following this person, maybe it will be a different situation.
