Everybody Has Become City Gate Guards
"Guard the city gates?"
Song Ou acted like he was a wise sage and nodded.
"Correct, the imperial city gates."
Boss Shen was absent, and since the punk was Liu Shan Men's highest ranking individual in name, he was therefore particularly arrogant.
There was a reason for it. According to Liu Shan Men's traditions, if the nation was in peril, we were to protect the nation and not the ruler. In other words, Liu Shan Men can choose not to protect the royal family during a crisis. However, they had to follow the orders of the captain. To simplify that, under reasonable circ.u.mstances where death and destruction is imminent, Liu Shan Men does not have to obey orders from the emperor. Instead, they must follow the orders of the captain.
I could accept it if it was Boss Shen, but I truly couldn't accept the leaders.h.i.+p skills of Song Ou whom people call Song b.a.s.t.a.r.d behind his back.
Song Ou is from the Song family which is a family of martial artists in Jiang Nan. Speaking of Jiang Nan, I must mention something particularly special about the martial world in Jiang nan.
The martial world in Jiang Nan is the primary force of the martial world. They seem to be the strongest among the sects of justice.
The martial world in Jiang Nan is different to the martial world in the North and Central Plains. The power balance between the sects of justice and evil sects is balanced in the other areas for the most part. Basically, their member ratio balance has been maintained.
In Jiang Nan, however, the ratio of members of the sects of justice to the evil sects is ten-to-one. No evildoers dare act audaciously there, nor do any evil sects or groups dare to advertise themselves. It's a beautifully tranquil place.
Back then, my s.h.i.+fu and I once tried to inv-, I mean, join Jiang Nan's martial world. He started a branch of Mount Daluo in Su Zhou with lots of motivation, but in the end, the sects in the area threw him out. Their reason was that the sect wasn't upright and did not exhibit good behaviour. They complained that there were constant prost.i.tute vists which ruined the reputation of the martial world in Jiang Nan.
My s.h.i.+fu was enraged. He actually went to their place and reasoned with them: "My branch of Mount Daluo only has three disciples. Two of the male disciples haven't come of age yet. Are you accusing my female disciple of visiting prost.i.tutes? How dare you!"
They responded with just one sentence: "We weren't talking about the sect's disciples, but its leader."
My s.h.i.+fu went completely red in the face. He revealed a shy look and ran off while laughing "Hehehe". And thus, I never dared to go to Jiang Nan in case somebody recognised me. There wasn't even anywhere for me to hide my head in…
