Chapter 278: The Hall Master is declaring in broad daylight... [Seeking monthly votes]
There was an ugly vulture pattern painted on the envelope, which was obviously the emblem of the Black Water Sect.
"How did the Black Water Sect send you a message?"
Jiang Ningshuang was a disciple of the Immortal Sect, so she naturally knew about the Black Water Sect. When she saw this letter, her big eyes were filled with confusion.
Isn’t Lu Zhan, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, a righteous man?
The sky was blue, and a cold wind blew through the courtyard, creating a moment of silence in the atmosphere.
“Well…well…” Lu Zhan hesitated to speak.
Lu Zhan didn't want too many people to know about his undercover work in the Black Water Sect. It wasn't because he didn't trust Jiang Jiang, but the fewer people who knew about this kind of thing, the better. After all, it was an important mission for the Demon Suppression Division.
It’s just that the guys from the Black Water Sect are mentally unstable. They drew the gang icon on the outside of the envelope, as if they were afraid that people wouldn’t know that they are evil practitioners from the Black Water Sect.
Lu Zhan looked at Jiang Jiang and said, "I don't know either."
"It might be a provocative letter. My senior sister has received one before." Jiang Jiang wrinkled her nose, clenched her fists and cursed: "The Black Water Sect is like this. Before taking action, they send a letter to make people feel scared and uneasy, and then take action quietly."
Lu Zhan cursed: "I see, this is how it is. This is really abominable. I'll look at it later."
Lu Zhan threw the letter aside and flirted with Jiang Jiang, but deep down he was thinking about setting up a formation at home.
However, he doesn't understand the formation, so it might be difficult to set up... Then he can set up a barrier so that not everyone can come. He would feel insecure living here alone.

Bianjing Rudder.
"Boom boom boom——"
Yue Feiying, who was responsible for delivering the letter to Lu Zhan, turned into a meteor and flew back to Bian Jing at the fastest speed in his life. However, due to the high speed, it was difficult to control and when he landed on the ground, he created a deep pit at the door.
The guard saw this scene, expressionlessly took out a piece of paper and pasted it on Yue Feiying: "Flying over the speed limit in the headquarters will damage public property and you will be fined ten taels."
Yue Feiying's blood boiled and he spat a mouthful of blood on the guard's face: "Get out!"
Although he cursed fiercely, he dared not refuse to pay. He reluctantly took out ten taels of silver, stumbled in and met Jiang Yannian.
Jiang Yannian was studying the menu for the banquet for Lu Zhan. Seeing Yue Feiying returning in a mess, he was shocked: "What happened to you? Didn't I ask you to deliver a letter to Hall Master Lu? Why did you come back like this?"
Yue Feiying spat out two mouthfuls of blood and complained: "You didn't tell me that delivering a letter to Master Lu would be life-threatening..."
"What's going on?" Jiang Yannian sucked in a breath of cold air. Yue Feiying was seriously injured, as if he had been severely abused by someone. Is it possible that Master Lu is so difficult to get along with?
Jiang Yannian hurriedly called for a night doctor, who was the only night doctor in Bian Jing. Normally, no one except Jiang Yannian was qualified to use him, and this time was purely a special case.
After checking the wound, the night doctor frowned and said, "The opponent's attack was so heavy, and the fists were of different sizes. Commander Yue, are you being besieged?"
"What do you mean by being besieged? Stop - Poof!" Before Yue Feiying could finish his words, he spat out another mouthful of blood.
The night doctor quickly took out the pills and used his skills to heal his wounds.
Yue Feiying regained some of his spirit and said gloomily, "What do you mean by being besieged? This was beaten by Hall Master Lu himself."
Jiang Yannian's pupils shrank: "Hmm? Tell me more about it!"
The more Yue Feiying thought about it, the more aggrieved he felt: "I was ordered by you, Captain, to deliver the letter. But when I arrived at Hall Master Lu's house, I saw from a distance that Hall Master Lu was...having sex in broad daylight. I couldn't disturb him, so I threw the letter over."
"Who would have thought that just as I threw it out, Hall Master Lu casually took out a beam of true Qi. This beam of true Qi was quite extraordinary. From a distance, it was just one beam, but when it got closer to me, it actually turned into dozens of beams, instantly knocking me hundreds of meters away."
"Captain, you only said you were delivering a letter to Hall Master Lu, but you didn't say it was so dangerous."
Yue Feiying was filled with grievances. They were all from the Black Water Sect, but yet they acted so recklessly. Delivering a letter was actually a high-risk job.
"Fornication in broad daylight?" Jiang Yannian noticed something and said with his eyes wide open.
Speaking of this, Yue Feiying was extremely jealous: "He was having sex in broad daylight with a woman in red in the courtyard. That woman was really slutty, she even pressed Master Lu under her body, I have never seen such a slutty girl, but we were too far away, I couldn't see her face."
"I understand." Jiang Yannian stroked his beard and said, "Master Lu is having a romantic relationship. If you don't go over and ruin his good deeds, I will inevitably teach you a lesson."
Yue Feiying covered his wound: "But I didn't do it on purpose. I just took a glimpse, and both of them were dressed neatly. I didn't see anything. Is it that serious..."
Listening to the two people's analysis, the night doctor next to them couldn't help but say: "Is it possible that Master Lu doesn't know the identity of Commander Yue at all? Commander Yue threw the letter without saying a word, and Master Lu might think someone had set a hidden weapon on him!"
As soon as these words came out, the whole hall was silent.
Yue Feiying's mouth twitched: "Is the truth actually like this..."
"No matter what, we must give him a good welcome tonight. This Hall Master Lu is really domineering!" Jiang Yannian began to feel a little wary of Lu Zhan, whom he had never met.
Yue Feiying nodded: "Should we ask Deputy Captain Zhigang to accompany us? He is responsible for monitoring Master Lu and he must know Master Lu better than us."
Jiang Yannian thought for a moment and shook his head: "Forget it, Brother Zhigang has his own mission, so don't bother him if there is nothing to do."
It's not that he is considerate of the deputy helmsman, but Jiang Yannian doesn't want Zhigang to interfere too much in the affairs of the helm. The current state of occasionally drinking and not interfering with each other is just right, so that Zhigang doesn't have to share his power.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yannian asked again: "You have also been secretly observing for a few days. Do you know what Master Lu likes?"
Yue Feiying thought seriously and said, "Except for women... Oh, right! I heard that a subordinate of Hall Master Lu became bald for no reason. It seems that it was shaved by Hall Master Lu."
Jiang Yannian stroked his beard and remained silent for a long time.
-
night.
Lu Zhan changed into the Black Water Sect's school uniform and went to the bustling White Tiger Street as specified in the letter to meet with the Black Water Sect's followers.
Lu Zhan didn't expect Jiang Yannian to be so bold as to choose Baihu Street as the location.
But think about it, Bian Jing Du has been developed for many years and must have been integrated into the streets of Bian Jing, but it is usually not obvious and no one knows about it.
"Master Lu, here!"
Lu Zhan walked from the beginning of the street to the end and finally saw an acquaintance. It was Yue Feiying who delivered a letter to him during the day. He remembered Yue Feiying's appearance at a glance.
"What is this place?" Lu Zhan followed behind and watched Yue Feiying wander around and finally come to an inconspicuous kiln.
Yue Feiying smiled and explained, "This is our property in Baihu Street. If you have anything to ask in the future, just come here and tell us. Our leader originally planned to welcome you on the first floor, but Baihu Street has been cracking down recently, so the leader thinks it's better to keep a low profile. I hope you can understand."
The truth is, Jiang Yannian really wanted to be on the first floor, but Bai Wu refused by crying, making a fuss, and even threatening to hang himself.
If you keep eating on the first floor without paying, it will be easy to reveal your flaws.
Jiang Yannian had no choice but to hold the banquet in this small brothel. Although the place was not big, the banquet was well prepared. All the ingredients were stolen by the Blackwater religious followers from the big restaurants in Bian Jing, and every dish was delicious.
Jiang Yannian likes to test the comprehensive qualities of his subordinates, and these large and small welcoming banquets or certain activities are the best opportunities to test the comprehensive qualities of his subordinates.
So if you can avoid spending money, do so and give your subordinates the opportunity to perform.
"Meet Hall Master Lu!"
As Lu Zhan walked in, dozens of people immediately lined up to salute him. Jiang Yannian stood in the middle, holding a banner in his hand that read: Welcome Hall Master Lu.
"Welcome, Master Lu. Let me introduce myself. I am Jiang Yannian, the master of Bian Jing. It's a pleasure to meet you." Jiang Yannian showed an official smile, bowed first, then bent down and made a 'please' gesture: "Please, I have prepared a banquet."
Lu Zhan took a look at Jiang Yannian, who was at the peak of the Mysterious Realm. His face was pale and his steps were unsteady. His kidneys did not look very good, but his eyes were sharp, and the calculations contained in them were completely different from the honest smile on his face.
As expected of a Bian Jing native, he seems to be more scheming than Captain Pei of Nanjing.
After entering the private room, Jiang Yannian only left Yue Feiying and dismissed the other men, then said: "Hall Master, there is no need to dress like this. Feiying and I both know your status. Hall Master, you can act as comfortable as you want in front of us."
“Did the elder tell you?” Lu Zhan glanced at him and didn’t find it strange.
He came to Bian Jing unexpectedly, and he was holding the title of the leader of the Black Water Sect. Ji Mengli would definitely be unable to sit still. Sending "Zhi Gang" to monitor him was only one of the reasons. She would definitely let Jiang Yannian beware of him, and naturally tell Jiang Yannian his identity.
Jiang Yannian smiled wryly and said, "Yes, your identity is special, the fewer people who know about it, the better. Therefore, Feiying and I are the only ones who know about it in the entire Bianjing rudder. Don't worry, Feiying is my confidant, he will definitely not tell anyone else."
Yue Feiying quickly assured: "Please rest assured, Master!"
Yue Feiying was very excited as it was his first time to have dinner at the same table with a big shot from the Demon Suppression Bureau.
“I see.” Lu Zhan took off his mask and outer robe, and his breathing became much smoother. He said slowly, “Captain Jiang, I have been in Bian Jing for such a long time, and you have only welcomed me today. Don’t you think I am serious?!”
Jiang Yannian shuddered and said hurriedly, "How dare I! I'm really busy with church affairs recently and can't get away!"
Lu Zhan snorted coldly: "Busy with affairs? Busy raising earth dragons, busy stealing minerals?"
Jiang Yannian's face changed. Ever since he found out about the accident with the earth dragon, he knew that the theft of minerals and dragon raising could not be concealed. The Demon Suppression Bureau had not made any trouble, so he knew that Lu Zhan had stopped this matter.
But even so, Jiang Yannian still acted very fearful. He had been the helmsman for so many years and knew how to get along with his superiors. Don't act too smart in front of your boss. Being stupid and obedient is the best.
"Master, I didn't handle the matter of the earth dragon and the mine well. Please punish me!" Jiang Yannian said in panic.
Lu Zhan said with a straight face: "I have already helped you to stop this matter. The Demon Suppression Department will not cause you any trouble. If the Ministry of Justice causes you any trouble, I can't do anything about it. If you have any other problems in Bianjing, tell me! Otherwise, you won't be so lucky next time!"
"Please rest assured, Hall Master. We will remember the lesson and won't do it again. Hall Master, today is a welcome party for you. First, take a look at the gifts I have prepared for you. You can scold me after the meal." Jiang Yannian waved his hand, preparing to serve Lu Zhan some appetizers to calm him down.
Yue Feiying next to him went down with an ambiguous look.
Not long after, Yue Feiying came over mysteriously, followed by two men in black robes.
'Ding--'
Lu Zhan looked at it carefully, and his eyes were suddenly dazzled.
