Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

Guanghui, along with Lu Zhishen and Deng Yuanjue, successfully checked into Puji Temple.

Moreover, thanks to the Diamond Sutra, they successfully secured a place at the Water and Land Dharma Assembly.

"Senior brother, what should we do then?"

Upon entering the prepared meditation room, Lu Zhishen first confirmed that no one was watching them before asking Guanghui.

"According to my brother's plan, on the day Liang Zhongshu and his group hold the Water and Land Ritual, they will break into the prison. What we need to do is keep an eye on Liang Zhongshu, and if possible, arrest him directly."

Guanghui looked at Lu Zhishen and Deng Yuanjue:

"In the next few days, we must not give ourselves away. We must all remember our Dharma names. I am Fazheng, Zhishen is Fayan, and Yuanjue is Faneng. Don't get them mixed up."

"Don't worry, senior brother. We will definitely not give anything away. Doctor An also gave us this medicine, which can make people sleep for a long time. All we need to do is lure Liang Zhongshu and his wife over."

Deng Yuanjue said to Guanghui.

"Yes, be careful. Although Liang Zhongshu doesn't care, his wife is Cai Jing's most beloved daughter. That old dog Cai Jing currently controls the government, and no one in the court dares to offend him. We can't directly confront him now."

Guanghui was afraid that Lu Zhishen and Deng Yuanjue would kill Liang Zhongshu and his wife, which would be troublesome.

If it's just Gao Qiu, then it doesn't matter, after all, there's more than one Grand Commandant in the Song Dynasty.

However, if Cai Jing were added, the pressure on Liangshan would be immense. After all, Cai Jing wielded considerable power, and if their daughter and son-in-law were killed, it would mean a blood feud with Cai Jing, instantly making Liangshan the court's number one enemy. This was not a situation that the people of Liangshan wanted to see, and it would greatly affect Ren Yuan's Liangshan foundation.

"Don't worry, senior brother, we know what we're doing."

Lu Zhishen and Deng Yuanjue nodded. They were simply righteous indignation, not reckless. At least for the time being, avoiding enmity with Cai Jing would be beneficial to the development of Liangshan.

……

North of Daming Prefecture, there is a Tianyi Temple.

The Taoist priests of Tianyi Temple set up a stall at the market in the north of the city almost every day, telling fortunes and asking for immortality and medicine. Over time, the people in the north of the city especially liked to go to Tianyi Temple for entertainment.

On this day, the Taoist priests of Tianyi Temple were performing flying sword techniques when they were unexpectedly challenged by several wandering Taoist priests!

"That's not how flying swords fly!"

Qiao Daoqing stepped forward, used his flying sword technique, and personally discussed the Dao with the other party for a few words, thus breaking the spell of the young Daoists of Tianyi Temple. The wonderful performance drew cheers from the surrounding people.

"Which fellow Daoist has come in person? Why wasn't anyone notified?"

When the abbot of Tianyi Temple heard that his disciple's magic had been broken in the market, he immediately came to see what was going on.

Their Tianyi Temple has been in Daming Prefecture for so long, but they have never suffered such a loss before.

But when they met, the head of Tianyi Temple immediately backed down.

The reason is simple: Gongsun Sheng directly revealed the waist token of Erxian Mountain.

Among all Taoist sects in the world today, Erxian Mountain is the most prominent. Therefore, there is an unwritten rule that disciples of Erxian Mountain can stay and eat for free at any Taoist temple they visit. Furthermore, Erxian Mountain disciples serve as representatives of all Taoist sects, able to oversee and monitor the entire Taoist community.

Gongsun Sheng didn't need to reveal his name; he only needed to take out the waist token.

"So it's the Daoist brothers from Erxian Mountain who have arrived. I apologize for my poor hospitality. Please come back to the temple with me."

The abbot of Tianyi Temple was exceptionally polite.

There's nothing we can do about it; after all, there's Master Luo on Erxian Mountain. He's the number one Taoist master in the world today. In terms of status in the martial arts world, only Zhou Tong, the grandmaster of the Song Dynasty's martial arts world, can be compared to Master Luo.

Unfortunately, one of them spends most of his time in seclusion on Mount Erxian, while the other is rarely seen, almost never making an appearance.

“You’re too kind, Abbot. We’re just passing by on our master’s orders. If you don’t mind, we’d like to stay here for a few days and give some pointers.”

Gongsun Sheng smiled broadly.

"It is an honor for our Tianyi Temple to hear the Taoist teachings of Erxian Mountain. Please, senior brother."

Upon hearing what Gongsun Sheng said, the abbot of Tianyi Temple was overjoyed. "Excellent! This is wonderful!"

In the future, the status of Tianyi Temple in the Song Dynasty's Taoist community will definitely be further enhanced!

……

"Brother, strategist, news has come from our brothers in several places. They have successfully entered the city and settled down."

At night, in a forest outside Daming Prefecture, there were some simple tents where the Liangshan leaders had gathered.

Shi Qian was reporting the news to Ren Yuan. This time, in order to save Lu Junyi, Liangshan really mobilized many heroes. The entire Daming Prefecture is now a gathering of heroes.

"Very good, when is Liang Zhongshu's Water and Land Dharma Assembly?"

"Three days later."

"Then let's break him out of prison three days from now, on the day he holds the Water and Land Ritual!"

Ren Yuan set a time.

“Brother, but we can’t infiltrate the government offices now. According to your former bodyguard, Lao Wu, the prison is heavily guarded. He was only qualified to go in because he was with that vanguard Suo Chao.”

According to him, Master Lu and others were imprisoned in the deepest part of the house, and they were all wearing heavy shackles, which made it very difficult for them to move around.

Shi Qian frowned; clearly, based on the current situation, things were not looking very optimistic.

"Does the Water and Land Dharma Assembly mean that everyone who hears of Li Cheng must follow Liang Zhongshu?"

Xiao Jiahui asked.

"At least one of them must be by Liang Zhongshu's side. This has been Liang Zhongshu's unwavering rule all these years."

Shi Qian said.

"Then we'll create chaos on the day of the Water and Land Dharma Assembly, and then take advantage of the confusion to rescue my second senior brother."

Ren Yuan's move was a classic example of feinting to the east while attacking in the west.

"Brother, we still need to find a way to infiltrate the government offices, otherwise it will be quite difficult."

"I've got it! Look, what's this?"

Ren Yuan chuckled and took out the things that Jin Dajian and Xiao Rang had prepared overnight.

"The Imperial City Guard? Brother, you want to impersonate someone from the Imperial City Guard?"

Xiao Jiahui took a look and exclaimed, "Good heavens, this thing is real! I can't tell if it's real or fake!"

"On the day of the Water and Land Dharma Assembly, when it was said that Liang Zhongshu was not in the government office, I led men disguised as officers from the Imperial City Guard to arrest him. After we got him, we ran away immediately!"

"We must evacuate everyone safely before the people of Daming Prefecture can react!"

"So Shi Qian, I demand that you prepare at least three retreat routes for me within two days, and then personally drive them all! See how long it takes!"

Ren Yuan said to Shi Qian.

"That's no problem, but brother, what about the garrison outside the city?"

Shi Qian asked again.

"Don't worry, I have already instructed Commander Qin, Teacher Xu, and Supervisor Zhang's three regiments of cavalry to make preparations."

Xiao Jiahui waved her feather fan.

"At that time, the garrison outside the city will be entangled by two groups claiming to be government troops, and will not have time to return to defend the city, thus buying time for the brothers!"

"As for that Water and Land Assembly... hehe, it will turn into a Buddhist-Taoist conflict, leaving Liang Zhongshu and his ilk no time to cause trouble!"

A hero needs three helpers. This time, to save Lu Junyi, many heroes from Liangshan came down the mountain. Such a luxurious lineup, just for a prison break!

Daming Prefecture, this is enough for you to brag about for the rest of your lives!
