Chapter 245: Liangshan Han vs. Twelve Gods of Jiangnan

Lu Shinang was used to being domineering in Shezhou. Even the government could not do anything to him, and the Buddhist sect was defeated by him.

If Baoguang Temple did not have a "Baoguang Tathagata" Deng Yuanjue in charge, whose strength far surpassed the "Twelve Gods" under his command, Shezhou would have already become uniform.

Where is the Baoguang Temple!

Yesterday he learned that several heroes from Shezhou were invited by Deng Yuanjue to drink. How could he bear it?

Wang Yin, Pang Wanchun and Du Wei were all won over by him and were just waiting to meet the Holy Duke and become members of the Manichaeism.

Now that someone has intervened, if he doesn't step forward, he will be looked down upon.

How can we completely take over Shezhou?

He had to come!

In Shezhou City, Yang Bangyi, holding a 10-foot-long golden spear, sat astride a fierce horse, standing in the road.

Lu Shinang narrowed his eyes, his face froze, and he thought to himself: How did he know that I was entering the city today? Could it be a trap set by him? Deng Yuanjue is so good, he actually colluded with the government...

The stiff face forced a faint smile: "Lieutenant Yang, I haven't seen you for a long time. Which rebel are you going to catch?"

Yang Bangyi looked at the group of big men with indifference. Just by looking at their faces, he knew that none of them were kind-hearted. He said coldly, "Mr. Lu, you are asking questions even though you already know the answer!"

After a brief moment of surprise, Lu Shinang quickly calmed down and said with a fist: "How did I know that the last time the county magistrate suppressed the bandits, I also contributed 8,000 taels of silver. It will soon be the eighth year of Zhenghe, and I wonder if the funds for suppressing the bandits are sufficient. When I have time, I will go and talk to the county magistrate about this matter."

"..."

Yang Bangyi clenched the golden spear in his hand. It was really a cowardly thing for an official to do.

The county magistrate did not think about governing the local area and suppressing bandits, but spent all day plotting to take advantage of the people's wealth and even wanted to squeeze every inch of their land.

What can Yang Bangyi do? Even Zong Ze can't do anything.

The first level of officialdom crushes people to death!
After Lu Shinang defeated Yang Bangyi, he prepared to leave with his men in a dignified manner.

Yang Bangyi held the golden spear in his hand horizontally and shouted, "Mr. Lu, you better take care of yourself. It's best not to fall into Yang's hands."

"Haha, rest assured, County Lieutenant Yang, I, Lu Shinang, behave properly and am familiar with the laws of the Song Dynasty. I will not fall into the hands of the county lieutenant."

The county lieutenant has the power to suppress bandits, but there is also a county magistrate above the county lieutenant.

Yang Bangyi gritted his teeth and slammed his spear into the ground, shattering the bluestone beneath his feet.

"County Lieutenant Yang, please don't take any action. Let us see what we can do." Chao Gai bowed and followed Lu Shinang.

Cao Jie made it clear that he wanted to take a piece of meat from the mouth of Fang La of the Manichaeism.

He has decided to marry these three heroes from Shezhou.

But I don’t want to overdo it.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Before the Song Dynasty was overthrown, Fang La was a friend.

But if you don't show some muscles, how can Fang La take you as his friend? The strong will never be friends with the weak, they will only swallow up and absorb them.

Therefore, there must be a fight between Cao Jie and Fang La.

In this case, it is better to take the initiative.

How do people in the underworld resolve disputes?

Fighting and killing is the last resort, and fighting in the ring is the mainstream.

Even in the world of immortal heroes, good and evil mostly resolve issues through sword fights and magic. The many sword fights between Shushan, Emei and Wutai are such examples.

If a bloody fight breaks out, it will be an all-out war, and the only ones who will benefit will be the third-party forces.

Cao Jie... No, it should be the battle between Jiuhua Buddhism and Manichaeism that kicked off in Shezhou City.

Each side sends out ten people to fight against each other. Whoever wins six games will take Shezhou.

The loser should get out of Shezhou.

Lu Shinang agreed immediately. In his opinion, the worst that could happen was that he would lose this game to Deng Yuanjue. As for the other nine games, what heroes could there be in the Buddhist sect?
The fighting arena was set up on the hill in front of Baoguang Temple.

"I am the giant spirit Shen Ze. Don't be that man. Take two blows from my axe." In the first battle in the arena, Liangshan's "Tower-Bearing Heavenly King" went into battle.

Faced with the provocation of the "Giant Spirit" Shen Ze, Chao Gai remained calm, just like the cry of an ant.

"Chao Gai, the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King!"

After bowing, he opened his palms and inhaled a breath into his body. The airflow in Chao Gai's body seemed to expand, making his figure look very tall. He took a slight step forward and could grab the distance of dozens of meters in one step.

Roar!
Although he was empty-handed, his momentum was far greater than that of the giant spirit Shen Ze who was holding two axes.

An ear-piercing scream came from his body, and his palm power instantly doubled, and his movements became even faster. His palm technique was so fierce, like an axe splitting a mountain, with a whistling sound and was extremely sharp.

"hiss!"

Shen Ze also took a deep breath, and bits of starlight emerged from his body, condensing into the image of a giant spirit god behind him.

But Chao Gai didn't give him time to attack and cut him with his palm.

It was like lightning splitting the dark sky.

boom!
The palm force surged out.

The two collided once, and Shen Ze and the giant spirit soul behind him flew backwards.

boom!
After falling heavily to the ground, Shen Ze struggled hard but was unable to stand up.

"..."

Lu Shinang took a deep breath and squinted his eyes and said, "You are not a Buddhist disciple and you don't seem to be from Shezhou."

"Chao Gai from Shandong, what do you have to say?"

Lu Shi Nang looked at Elder Yuan Chen and said, "You Buddhists have lost all their dignity by inviting outsiders here!"

Elder Yuan Chen opened his mouth, but knowing he was in the wrong he didn't say anything.

At this time, Cao Jie raised his voice and asked, "May I ask where are these heroes under your command from?"

Except for the Youyi God Pan Wende who is from Shezhou, there are no locals.

Lu Shinang gritted his teeth and said, "Next game!"

If we want to win, we must win cleanly and neatly. Cao Jie nodded slightly to Lu Zhishen.

"I am the Vajra Master Lu Zhishen, you can't do it, get down!"

"..."

Gao Keli, the "Tai Sui God", was immediately furious.

This person is also extraordinary. In the original novel, he cooperated with the "Thunder God" Zhang Jinren to kill Liangshan's "Invincible General" Han Tao and "Tianmu General" Peng Qi.

Han Tao and Peng Qi are quite remarkable, one ranks 42nd and the other ranks 43rd among the Disha, both are among the sixteen young generals.

This man was able to kill these two people in a row, which shows his fighting power.

But if he meets Lu Zhishen in a one-on-one duel on foot, let alone one of the Twelve Gods, even if all twelve of them come together, they may not be able to defeat him.

The water-grinded Zen stick was swung out with a crazy stick technique, weighing more than a thousand pounds. This "Taisui God" did not have the strength of Wu Erlang, so how could he resist it?

In no time, Gao Keli dropped the weapon in his hand and retreated halfway, obviously he had lost his courage.

"enough!"

Lu Shinang shouted: "You Buddhists are going too far..."

"Amitabha, this Master Zhishen is the elder of Baozhu Temple. He came to Baoguang Temple to exchange Buddhist teachings. Asking him to help is against the rules."

After winning two games in a row, Elder Yuan Chen cheered up and had the confidence to face Lu Shinang.

Lu Shinang knew that it was difficult for him to win, so he was not prepared to fight again and shouted:
"You can invite outsiders, but I can't?"
