While drinking and chatting, Huang Haibo was at the wine table, hoping to transport the wealth under the Dragon King Temple out of Junshan after planning some relevant details. Otherwise, once the news is leaked, the government will definitely send someone to snatch it.

Since Huang Haibo had agreed to give the treasure left by Zhong Feiyang to the Merit Teachings, Lu Changhe suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the overall situation had been settled because he really couldn't think of any other way out for Dongting Lake.

After secretly giving the treasure to the Merit Teaching, even if the Merit Teaching fails in Huguang, Dongting Lake can survive this storm, because the Merit Teaching will not spread this matter. Dongting Lake will be used as a secret force at their hands, embedded in Huguang like a nail, to provide assistance to their future great cause.

However, although Huang Haibo has expressed his intention to surrender, Lu Changhe is an old traitor and a slick person. How could Huang Haibo pass the test easily with a few words? Therefore, in order to block Dongting Lake, he "specially" invited the young generation of Dongting Ten Owls to go to the disaster area to experience the sufferings of the people and personally experience the lofty doctrine of "merit is lost and the world is lucky".

Huang Haibo could not refuse Lu Changhe's kind invitation. After all, he gave the wealth left by Zhong Feiyang to the Merit Teaching, which meant to rely on the Merit Teaching. It was natural for the younger generation of Dongting Lake to experience the teaching of Merit Teaching.

Huang Haibo knew very well that Lu Changhe used the younger generation of Dongting Lake as hostages to threaten them. It is estimated that each family of Dongting Lake will have one person, and if they value and like the children they most, this will pose a problem for Dongting Lake:

Since the Ten Owls of Dongting have decided to surrender to the court, if the incident occurs, those hostages in the merit religion will be in danger of their lives.

Huang Haibo knew that this was Lu Changhe's trick, but he had no choice but to accept it first and persuade Lu Changhe to discuss with the others in Dongting Ten Owls to see who to choose to take the Merit Teaching.

Lu Changhe was prepared for this and opened his mouth and ordered ten young people out. As Huang Haibo expected, Lu Changhe chose the favorite children of Dongting Ten Owls, such as Huang Haibo's third son Huang Weijie, Ye Hainiu's second son Ye Zhenshan and Bai Tianxing's daughter Bai Yu, etc.

Although You Wuniang has no offspring, she has an apprentice Lian'er. Moreover, Lu Changhe already knew that Lian'er was You Wuniang's illegitimate daughter, so Lu Changhe also chose Lian'er.

Facing the list proposed by Lu Changhe, Huang Haibo was shocked. Lu Changhe's move could be said to have captured all the elites among the younger generation of Dongting Lake.

Lu Changhe knew that although Huang Haibo was the boss of Dongting Lake, he could not make any decision on this matter. Except for Huang Haibo and Ye Hainiu, Ye Hainiu may not necessarily buy Huang Haibo's account. The people he chose this time were all the flesh of Dongting Ten Owls. Whether others would like to do so or not, Huang Haibo had no idea about it.

Therefore, Lu Changhe gave Huang Haibo two days very generously to let Huang Haibo communicate with the others among the Ten Owls of Dongting.

Huang Haiyang's Hongmen Banquet was a result of gains and losses. Although he successfully delayed the time, he was led by Lu Changhe, and the price was to send the younger generation of Dongting Lake to the merit teachings as hostages, and the good and bad luck were uncertain.

The next morning, Huang Haiyang summoned the Ten Owls of Dongting and told everyone about Lu Changhe's request.

After experiencing the initial shock, the Ten Owls of Dongting quickly unified their opinions. They decided to take dangerous moves and send their children to the Merit and Deeds as hostages according to Lu Changhe's requirements, because they had no choice but to do what Lu Changhe said, and then wait for the opportunity to find a way to rescue them.

After making the decision, Dongting Ten Owls returned home with great worries, shouting their son and daughter who were going to be hostages to them, telling them about this matter, and telling them to pay more attention to safety.

When Tan Zong learned about this, he was squatting in the purple bamboo forest and watching the two nests of ants fighting happily. When You Wuniang returned to the bamboo forest, she saw that the two were not there, so she came over specially.

"Master!" Lian'er looked up accidentally and saw You Wuniang coming, and quickly stood up and shouted in a coquettish voice.

"Lien'er, Master has something to do." You Wuniang smiled and nodded to Lian'er, looked at Tan Zong in an seemingly unintentional way, and after squatting underground intently, watching the ants fighting, Tan Zong said quietly.

"Master, just speak up if you have anything to do." Lian'er replied with a smile when she heard this.

"Master is going to ask you to go to the disaster area and experience the sufferings of the people." You Wuniang smiled slightly and said to Lian'er.

"Disaster area?" Lian'er's eyes suddenly showed a look of surprise when she heard this. She never expected that You Wuniang would let her go to the disaster area to experience the suffering of the victims at this time. All this seemed too sudden.

Tan Zong's eyes twitched slightly, and a light flashed in his eyes. The disaster area in Huguang is now the territory of the Merit of Deity. Does You Wuniang want Lian'er to find the Merit of Deity? But why did she do this? Is there any collusion between Dongting Lake and Merit of Deity in private?

"You are not the only one, you Brother Weijie and Brother Zhenshan are going." Just as Tan Zong was confused, You Wuniang said to Lian'er with a smile.

"Master, are we really involved in the Merit Teaching?" Lian'er was stunned when she heard this. After hesitating for a moment, she looked up at You Wuniang suspiciously.

"How do you know the Merit Sect?" Hearing this, You Wuniang's eyes flashed with an unexpected look. She did not mention the Merit Sect to Lian'er. Could it be that someone in Dongting Ten Owls told her children and then passed it to Lian'er?

"Yes... it was Bai Yu who accidentally heard Uncle Ten mentioned it." Lian'er originally wanted to say that she guessed it, but when her eyes touched You Wuniang's eyes, she couldn't help but vomit the truth. She knew that she could not deceive You Wuniang.

"That's right, that Mr. Lu is the person from the Merit of Deity." After hearing this, You Wuniang immediately understood and nodded to Lian'er. The one who had been most humiliated on Junshan during this period was Bai Tianxing. If it weren't for Huang Haibo pressing on it, with Bai Tianxing's hot temper, he would have had a fight with the Merit of Deity of Deity, and it would have been normal for Bai Yu to complain when he went home.

"Master, the merit teachings are to rebel. If we are related to them, we will be implicated." Lian'er couldn't help but show a worried look on her face when she saw You Wu Niang admit it in person.

Although the Merit of Deity is now called for the wind and rain in Huguang area, the court firmly grasped the initiative. The imperial envoy has already dispatched troops and generals in Wuchang City. If it takes time, Wuchang City will definitely be used as the support point to attack those victims in Huguang area who followed the Merit of Deity of Deity, the Merit of Deity may be difficult to resist the offensive of the official army.

Even Lian'er can understand such a simple truth. Lian'er believes that You Wuniang must know it, but since this is the case, why didn't she stop Dongting Shi Xiao from contacting the Meritory Sect?

Tan Zong continued to look at the two groups of ants fighting with enthusiasm, but his ears were stuck up, waiting for You Wuniang's answer. Lian'er's question was exactly where he was suspicious. You Wuniang should not be so short-sighted and unable to see the future situation clearly. Is there any last resort?

"Oh, Master and your uncles were careless for a moment and fell into the trap of the merit teachings. Now they are in a dilemma." You Wuniang was silent for a while and suddenly sighed. Since the plague broke out in the village in the waters of Dongting Lake three years ago, she told the entanglement between Dongting Lake and the merit teachings in a variety of ways. Anyway, there were no outsiders at the scene except Tan Zong, and they were not afraid of being known to others.

"So that's it!" Tan Zong couldn't help but realize it in his heart. No wonder Luo Yidao said that Dongting Lake secretly funded 20,000 silver for the Merit of Deity. So that's the case. If you calculate carefully, Dongting Lake has paid about 10,000 taels of money to do good deeds intermittently without knowing it for three years. In addition, Huguang has funded 10,000 taels of merit of Deity after a drought, which is not exactly 20,000 taels of money!

"Master, since the merit teaching has our handle, can't we just let it manipulate?" Lian'er then realized that Dongting Lake was in a big trouble and couldn't help asking worriedly.

"Master and your uncles have already discussed it. They are going to Wuchang City to find the imperial envoy, present the treasure under the Dragon King Temple to the court, and explain to the imperial envoy our relationship with the merits and religions. I hope the imperial envoy can deal with it impartially." A gloomy expression flashed through You Wuniang's eyes. After all, she was facing the dignified imperial envoy this time, Guan Haishan, the Grand Secretary of Wenyuan Pavilion, had no confidence in her heart. It was completely up to people to plan things, and to succeed and fail, and only by leaving the fate of things.

"Master, Lian'er knows what to do." When Lian'er heard this, she clearly felt helplessness and confusion from You Wuniang's words, so she said to You Wuniang with a delicate voice, preparing to be a hostage to the Merit and give Dongting Lake as much time as possible.

"Liang'er, Master and your uncle have discussed it. I originally planned to tell you and your brother Weijie before you leave. Now that you already know, then be mentally prepared." You Wuniang smiled slightly when she heard this, and looked at Lian'er with a loving look on her face, her eyes full of care. "It's very dangerous to go there this time. If the Merit Demon Sect realizes the intentions of your master and your uncles, you will be revenge by the Merit Demon Sect at that time. If you have any unfulfilled wishes, it's best to finish it now."

"Master, if Lian'er leaves, who will take care of Mr. Li?" Lian'er was silent for a while after hearing this, turned her head and looked at Tan Zong squatting there and watching the ants fighting, and asked You Wuniang quietly.
