Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

"Is the chieftain a star descended from heaven?"

"Not just the chieftain! The strategists too!"

"That's not all! As the two strategists just mentioned, we have over a hundred leaders on Liangshan who have descended from the heavens! And there will be even more leaders descending from the heavens in the future!"

"My God, did you hear that? The three Ruan brothers, they are all Star Constellations!"

"So our village produced three immortals?"

……

The surrounding people had been watching, and those with good hearing had already heard the gist of what Wen Huanzhang and Xu Guanzhong had said!

Then the news spread like wildfire, and the people gathered there spontaneously knelt down before Ren Yuan!

"May the chieftain be blessed with boundless good fortune!"

"No wonder the chieftain was so good to us! Turns out he's a deity!"

"Chief! You are the savior of our Shijie Village!"

……

"Get up, folks, get up! Everyone, stop this!"

Ren Yuan had to raise his voice so that it could be heard.

"Yes, folks, get up, get up quickly!"

The strategists gestured for the villagers to stand up, as it was truly unbearable to see so many kneeling.

"Village chief, what are you doing? Get up quickly."

Ren Yuan helped the old village chief up and patted the mud off his trousers.

"Chief, although this old man does not know what this stone tablet represents, you are all celestial beings, so this kneeling is well deserved!"

“Village chief, what you’re saying is wrong. Even if we are celestial beings, we are still ordinary people when we come down to earth. We need to eat, drink, relieve ourselves, and sleep, just like everyone else. Everyone, get up quickly. Let’s transport this stone tablet back to Liangshan first. Village chief, please tell the villagers that we should keep it to ourselves and try not to spread it outside.”

Ren Yuan gave the village chief some instructions, but he obviously forgot one thing: from ancient times to the present, the people with the best information in the village are none other than the old men and women chatting at the village entrance.

The village of Shijie is now mostly populated by elderly men and women. How could the news that Shijie was born in this village and that the leaders of Liangshan were celestial beings descended to earth not spread?

Especially in their Shijie Village, the three Ruan brothers are all stars of heaven. If they don't take the opportunity to promote them, how can they face the ancestors of the village?

But Ren Yuan couldn't worry about much else at this point. He led his seven strategists back to the mountain and signaled his guards to load the stone tablet onto the boat and transport it back as soon as possible.

"Brother, should we tell the brothers about taking this stone tablet back with us?"

After they said goodbye to the hospitable villagers, while they were all on the small boat, Zhu Wu asked Ren Yuan a question.

“Tell me, and this can’t be kept secret. But I have to tell you guys, what’s on this doesn’t represent our ranking in the knock-off scene.”

Ren Yuan thought for a moment. Since the stone tablet had already been produced and so many people down the mountain already knew about it, it was better to let people know than to block it. He decided to tell everyone!

Moreover, Ren Yuan was certain that his mountain stronghold was not the place with many factions like Song Jiang in the original novel, and there were not so many petty scheming people there!

“Brother, Fang La is indeed quite interesting. By sheer accident, he added all the brothers who had been released by Liangshan and died in battle to the stone tablet. I think he might have eyes and ears in our stronghold.”

Xu Guanzhong said.

"Old Xu, Liangshan is so big, there must be some like them, just like we have some there. But with Shi Qian around, it's not a big problem, right, Shi Qian? My Tianyi Star, Lord Shadow?"

Xiao Jiahui patted Shi Qian on the shoulder and made a joke.

"That's right. After all, I'm the person praised by Strategist Xiao of the Greedy Wolf Star as the number one thief in the world, right? How could I let Lord Greedy Wolf down?"

Shi Qian and Xiao Jiahui also have a good relationship.

"Don't worry, my strategists. Shadow is keeping an eye on those spies. They are currently only operating at the most basic level of Liangshan. The highest-ranking one is only a deputy captain, and that captain is one of my men."

Only Shi Qian and Ren Yuan knew exactly who the members of the Shadow organization were, so Shi Qian did not reveal which battle group they belonged to.

"Okay, as long as you keep that in mind."

"Brother, did Fang La deliberately rank Guan Sheng, the patrol inspector, so high? He's actually above Brother Bian Xiang, who's a veteran of the stronghold and even more powerful than Patrol Inspector Guan..."

Wang Yin had participated in the battle that captured Guan Sheng alive, and he knew Guan Sheng's fighting prowess.

"Look, this is the effect Fang La wanted."

Upon hearing Wang Yin's words, Ren Yuan immediately smiled and replied.

"He probably doesn't know anything about our village and thinks we have that ranking system too."

“Guan Sheng is a descendant of Lord Guan. In Fang La’s eyes, this is an extraordinary identity, so he was placed in the front to suppress the Bian Xiang brothers.”

“We all know that Brother Bian Xiang is superior to Inspector Guan in terms of martial arts and time, so he will definitely say some things. If he says too many of these things, there will be a rift between us, and that will play right into Fang La’s hands.”

"I see. I was being inconsiderate earlier. My brother was much more thoughtful!"

After hearing Ren Yuan's words, Wang Yin understood and felt ashamed of his previous thoughts.

"It's alright. When we get back, we'll emphasize again that this list is just for fun and entertainment. We shouldn't let it cause any misunderstandings between us."

Ren Yuan said earnestly.

“It’s alright, brother. You said it long ago: all the leaders of Liangshan only have different responsibilities, not different ranks.”

Zhu Wu knew this matter very well. When he first came to Liangshan, there weren't many people there, and they had a simple ranking system for a while. Later, Ren Yuan directly abolished this system. Each brother only had specific responsibilities, and the entire Liangshan hierarchy was very simple: ordinary soldiers, leaders, and chiefs.

Everyone on the stone tablet is currently at the leader level.

"Then it's more comfortable for the seven of us. The Big Dipper has no ranking, and I'm quite satisfied with my Lian Zhen."

Qiao Daoqing also joked about the ranking of the stone tablet. To be honest, in an era when the belief in ghosts and gods was prevalent, it was indeed very prestigious to be called a star descended to earth.

“Brother, you need to be careful about something. Fang La made this stone tablet for us. Now we can use it to unite the people’s hearts, but one day he might come out and say that it’s fake. What will we do then?”

Wen Huanzhang also expressed his concerns.

“Mr. Wen, brother, don’t worry about that. I’ll write to my master right away and tell him about it, so that he can also do his part in shaping public opinion regarding this stone tablet.”

"The lineage of my Erxian Mountain is far more orthodox than Fang La's Ming Cult!"

Gongsun Sheng decided to go directly to his master, Master Luo. Master Luo was stationed at Erxian Mountain and was the leader of all Taoist sects in the world. In the eyes of all Taoist cultivators, that place was an authority.

If we let Master Luo know about the stone tablet, and then release some information, the credibility of the stone tablet will be maximized!

In that case, even if Fang La wanted to claim that he carved the stone tablet someday, no one would believe him!

Master Luo has confirmed it's true! But you, Fang La, claim it's false; that means you, Fang La, are talking nonsense!

“Yiqing, if your master doesn’t mind, that would be the best.”

Ren Yuan beamed with joy. "Very good, very good. Having many strategists is indeed beneficial. See? This is the perfect way to solve the problem. Compared to Wang Qing, who could only have Li Zhu kill and kill, that's the difference!"

The guards led Ren Yuan and the others back to Jinshatan by boat, where many leaders had already gathered and were waiting!

They had just received news from the Sky Curtain Camp, and everyone wanted to see what was written on this stone tablet!
