Chapter 139 I wonder if the general would like to learn?
As it turned out, none of the city guards and government officials who were arrested were clean; they all had problems, big or small.
Those who endure for a long time are not those who haven't made mistakes, but those who have made even bigger mistakes.
A person who is upright and has nothing to fear would not bother to come to the Ma Yi Wei to mock Lin Feng.
Two days later, Lin Feng executed two of them according to the law, and sent the rest to the mountains to mine.
Just as Lin Feng finished dealing with his situation, the Ma Yi Guard from the county town sent someone to thoroughly investigate Lin Feng's irregularities.
Lin Feng treated the man to good food and drink.
This man had him send out a few scapegoats to settle the matter.
The fact that this matter was reported to the county seat had a very negative impact.
Isn't this just giving myself another excuse to replace those people?
The people used to interrogate the city guards and government officials were all people who had sided with Ma Youcai. He had originally wanted to get rid of them, and now it was even easier to do so.
In front of the Ma Yiwei official in the county town, Lin Feng dealt with the money of those dozens of people. Some were directly expelled from the Ma Yiwei, while others were sent to the mountains to mine.
The Ma Yi Guard commander from the county town was very satisfied and took Lin Feng's report back to the capital.
After dealing with these people, Lin Feng found a reason to publicly commend Song Dahu again.
Song Dahu's salary and position as a squad leader were restored, and he was also rewarded with three thousand taels of silver.
Back then, Song Dahu stood on his side, but Zhao Youcai found an excuse to punish him by deducting his salary for half a year and even found someone to replace him as a squad leader, effectively sidelining him.
Now that Lin Feng has become a general, he's bound to get back the face Song Dahu lost.
Song Dahu followed behind Lin Feng, beaming from ear to ear, repeatedly saying, "Thank you, General Lin, thank you, General Lin."
Lin Feng patted Song Dahu's broad shoulder, "We're all brothers, so don't be so polite with me."
Song Dahu followed Lin Feng from the courtyard into Lin Feng's room, his eyes constantly glancing left and right, looking rather awkward.
Lin Feng turned around and asked, "Da Hu, is something wrong?"
Song Dahu nodded. "Big brother, didn't you want to learn our sect's Hundred Beasts Fist?"
I sent a letter to my sect to inquire about their opinion.
My master hopes you can visit the Beast Fist Sect and discuss it in person.
Lin Feng's mind raced. He thought, "If I can learn a martial art, great; if not, no. If I want money, I should just say so. Why do we need to discuss this in detail?"
It seems that Song Dahu's master might need something from him.
"Alright, I'll go back with you. When do we set off?"
Song Dahu's eyes lit up. "Of course, the faster the better. My sect is in Qinglian County right next door. It's only about half a day's journey if we ride fast."
Lin Feng glanced at the sky. "It's getting late. Let's meet here first thing tomorrow morning and then go together."
Song Dahu nodded. "Okay."
……
The next day, Lin Feng told his family and went to the Ma Yi Wei.
Lin Feng then instructed Sun Yu to let him take over the management of the Ma Yi Guard, as he would be away for two days.
Lin Feng planned to go for a day, stay overnight at Song Dahu's sect, and then return the next day.
Lin Feng mounted a tall horse, the saddle bearing the insignia of the Hemp Guard.
He was also dressed in the attire of a general of the Hemp Guard, with a black cloak draped over his shoulders.
The tall horse galloped, its cloak fluttering behind it.
They traveled at breakneck speed without any obstacles, and before dusk, the two arrived at the gate of the Beast Fist Sect.
The Beast Fist Sect is not like the Iron Rod Gang or the Hungry Wolf Gang, which occupy the city and live off the blood of the people.
The Beast Fist Sect is located on a mountain. They have cultivated a large area of land, growing crops and raising poultry and livestock, living a self-sufficient and peaceful life.
Lin Feng was led into the mountain gate.
He found that the members of the Beast Fist Sect were all quite simple and honest.
Many people live in the mountains, and Lin Feng even saw several children playing on the road.
Most of the disciples of the Beast Fist Sect lived in self-made thatched or wooden houses, leading a rather austere and even impoverished life.
These people don't seem to have a very good life.
They probably can't even guarantee having meat every day, so how can they train well in such a state?
If Song Dahu hadn't led him in, he would have thought he had entered some village.
The two most presentable wooden buildings in the sect are the main hall and the scripture repository, which are only two-story buildings.
The sect leader and three elders of the Beast Fist Sect prepared a banquet to welcome Lin Feng.
Song Dahu's master was the Grand Elder of the Beast Fist Sect, who looked to be in his fifties or sixties with a kind and benevolent face.
The leader of the Beast Fist Sect is even older than Song Dahu's master.
Song Dahu introduced the group to Lin Feng.
The leader of the Beast Fist Sect stood up, raised his wine glass, and said, "Thank you for visiting the Beast Fist Sect, General. It is an honor for our sect. General Lin, you must be tired from your journey. Let us first offer you a toast."
Lin Feng glanced at the cup in front of him, which contained his favorite green tea.
Lin Feng then looked at the elderly people in front of him.
These people were either sect leaders or elders, and they all treated him with great respect.
Lin Feng once again felt the benefits of power.
If I weren't a general in the Imperial Guard, I wouldn't have received such treatment.
"Please!" Lin Feng raised his teacup and toasted the group, who all drank it down in one gulp.
The only difference was that Lin Feng drank tea, while they drank wine.
The sect leader and several elders exchanged glances.
Then Song Dahu's master spoke up, "I heard from Dahu that General Lin practiced the Beast Hunting Fist and wants to learn our Beast Fist School's Hundred Beast Fist."
That's no problem at all; the Hundred Beasts Fist can be taught to the general at any time.
However, our Beast Fist Sect has even more powerful martial arts than the Hundred Beast Fist, and some of them are even unique skills.
"I wonder if the general would like to learn?"
Lin Feng's heart stirred. He naturally wanted to learn, but he was afraid that others might not be willing to teach him easily.
I'll definitely have to pay a price, but I don't know what these people want.
