Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

"Calling for reinforcements? What happened to Tian Hu? Can't beat Tong Guan?"

Ren Yuan looked at Xie Ning, who was still pretending, and was in no hurry to expose him. Instead, he cooperated with the act.

"Reporting to the chieftain, Tong Guan is a minor matter. The king is already preparing to surrender to the Liao people. We think this is a very important matter, so we came to Liangshan to find the chieftain."

"Among all the heroes of the outlaw world, only the chieftain can keep my king in check, so I have come here specifically to ask the chieftain for help."

After Xie Ning finished speaking, she lowered her head and remained silent.

"Tian Hu, you've defected to the Liaodong people?"

Ren Yuan pretended to be hearing about this for the first time, "Wu Li, is it true? This is treason!"

"Alas... family scandals should not be aired in public, but Chief Ren, it is true that my king does indeed intend to join forces with the Liao people."

Wu Li sighed and shook her head.

"Hehehe, then what are you doing here? We Liangshan hate traitors the most."

Tang Bin, who was sitting in his seat, suddenly spoke up.

This opening remark was a mockery of Tian Hu.

Moreover, his words received a great deal of response from many people in the Hall of Gathering Righteousness:

"Exactly, so what? Are you planning to drag us Liangshan down with you?"

"I remember that Tian Hu declared himself king before, and then he came running over to bestow the title of king upon his brother. What's going on now? Is he going to betray the country and take me with him?"

"Hehe, my brother-in-law, we Liangshan people love nothing more than acting on behalf of Heaven. If Tian Hu is going to be a traitor, then we have nothing to say, let's just do it."

……

The words of the leaders caused Wu Li and the others to change their expressions. Clearly, Liangshan strongly disapproved of Tian Hu's idea of ​​defecting to the Liao people.

"Wu Li, if you've come here to ask me to help Tian Hu and give him the opportunity to continue being a traitor, then there's no need for us to say anything more today. I won't agree."

Ren Yuan told Wu Li directly, "Don't even think about betraying the country."

“Well, Chief Ren, it’s not like that. We also disagree with Tian Hu’s actions, but unfortunately, Tong Guan’s strength is too great. He has over 100,000 men under his command, including the Western Army and Wang Qing’s troops who were recently recruited.”

"Great Jin, we can't hold on any longer! We beg Chief Ren to lend a helping hand, considering we're all fellow outlaws!"

Wu Li explained her purpose for coming.

"After all, our two families live close by, so it's a matter of mutual dependence. What do you think, Chief Ren?"

"What do I think? I don't think it's anything special."

Ren Yuan looked at Wu Li, his expression calm:

“Wu Li, the kind of person I hate most is a traitor. Since Tian Hu wants to be a traitor, then he should stay away from me.”

“But Chief Ren, my king was just confused for a moment. He didn’t betray the country. Besides, he has realized his mistake and returned to the right path. Please, Chief Ren, help him out of consideration for our past acquaintance.”

Although Wu Li and Tian Hu had a falling out, they still had a relationship spanning more than ten years, so Wu Li was trying her best to persuade Ren Yuan.

However, Ren Yuan just shook his head and didn't say anything.

"Your Excellency, should I do it?"

Xie Ning stepped forward and whispered to Wu Li.

"can you?"

Wu Li was somewhat puzzled. He knew Ren Yuan, but he couldn't get Ren Yuan to agree.

"We have to try."

Xie Ning dusted himself off, stepped forward, and bowed to Ren Yuan.

"you are?"

Ren Yuan looked at the person in front of him, feeling somewhat uncertain.

At this moment, Xie Ning spoke up:

"A lone cloud hangs in the northwestern sky! A crow has landed among a flock of phoenixes! The hall is filled with heroes, but who is the ruler and who is the subject!"

"Hahaha, let's swing this vine!"

Ren Yuan laughed after hearing this and said to Xie Ning.

"The vines are crooked and twisted!"

"So it's Manager Xie. What brings you to Liangshan?"

"Jade Lion Xie Ning has returned to the mountain today to report back!"

As Xie Ning spoke to Ren Yuan, he reached out and forcefully pulled a piece of human skin mask off his ear!

"Wait a minute? Xie Ning, what's wrong with you?"

Wu Li sensed something was very wrong!

What's going on?

Why did Xie Ning suddenly change his attitude and even say something about returning to the mountain to report back?

"Hehe, Brother Wu, please don't be offended. My name is Xie Ning, one of the leaders of Liangshan. I was ordered to go to Hebei as a spy. Today I have completed my mission and no longer need to wear this human skin mask."

After tearing off the human skin mask, Xie Ning's face was as handsome as jade and his lips as white as rouge, which perfectly matched his title of "Jade Lion"!

"You, you...you're from Liangshan?"

"I have always been."

Xie Ning smiled, then turned to Ren Yuan and said:

"Brother, how was it? My disguise skills aren't bad, are they?"

"Haha, this is more than just good! If you hadn't given me the code, I really wouldn't have recognized you. Thanks for your hard work, brother!"

When Xie Ning went undercover, he said he would prepare a human skin mask for himself, so the people on Liangshan did not know what Xie Ning looked like when he was with Tian Hu.

After Xie Ning removed his mask, the Liangshan people finally saw that familiar face.

"Haha, Brother Xie Ning, I've missed you so much! Your disguise skills are truly amazing! I didn't notice anything at all just now."

"Brother, didn't Tian Hu and the others notice that you were wearing a mask the whole time? They didn't even touch your face!"

"Brother, remember to teach me this skill later!"

"Hey bro, come quick! Your seat's right here, I clean it for you every day!"

……

"Easy to say, easy to say!"

Xie Ning greeted everyone with a smile, responding to his brothers.

It's been so long since we last saw each other!

Wu Li was stunned. He looked at Ren Yuan with a very complicated expression.

"Chief Ren, I truly never expected you to resort to such methods!"

“Uncle Wu, you can’t blame me. We don’t know what Xie Ning looks like after he puts on this human skin mask.”

Ren Yuan said he was also surprised. He only knew that Xie Ning had successfully infiltrated Tian Hu's northern region, but he did not expect the infiltration to be so successful!

With such a disguise, who could recognize him? Even the Liangshan heroes themselves wouldn't know!

"So, I followed a Liangshan leader and came to Liangshan?"

Wu Li finally understood.

All that talk about relieving Tian Hu's worries or calling for reinforcements is a lie!

The money and provisions Xie Ning took this time were all for Liangshan!

Even myself!

"Xie Ning, you hid it so well! Out of all the people in Hebei, not a single one of them noticed anything amiss with you!"

"You flatter me, Your Excellency. Xie Ning is only thinking of Liangshan. By the way, brother, I have also found out the list of Liao people that Tian Hu plans to contact."

Xie Ning took an envelope out of his pocket and then gestured for the junior officer to give it to Ren Yuan.

"Good, brother, you've done a great job this time. I'll give you a satisfactory explanation from Brother Pei Xuan later."

Ren Yuan took the letter, but didn't rush to read it. Instead, he continued to look at Wu Li.

“Uncle Wu, this is the situation now. I'm not really able to go to Tian Hu's place to help him, but you can stay.”

"Chief Ren, your Liangshan is full of talented people, what use is someone as useless as me?"

At this moment, Wu Li's feelings were still very complicated.

“Uncle Wu, you abandoned your daughter at Liangshan without consulting me before. Now that Tian Hu is dying, what will happen to Qiongying if I don’t invite you to Liangshan?”

"He's just a traitor, not worth your life. Look at yourself now, you've aged so much in such a short time!"

"Wu Guojiu, oh no, Wu Li, from now on you'll stay on Liangshan Mountain and enjoy your retirement..."
