Chapter 484: Beggars Gather in Xinping
Xiang Baiying leaned back in his chair and asked, "Elder White Tiger, has anyone come to the Kui Wood Wolf to find me?" β
Elder White Tiger immediately said: "Gang leader, after the battle of Qianwuling, my subordinates led the disciples of the gang back to Xinping, and no one came to look for the gang leader at the moment. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
Qi Ning asked beside him, "Elder White Tiger, have you sent someone to the Shadow Crane Villa to deliver a message to the gang leader?" β
"Shadow Crane Villa?" Elder White Tiger was stunned, shook his head and said, "After the gang leader left Qianwu Ridge, his subordinates didn't know where the gang leader went, did the gang leader go to Shadow Crane Villa?" β
"So, there is a person named Wu Yi who was not sent by you?" Qi Ning asked.
Elder White Tiger frowned and said, "Wu Yi? The subordinates don't remember such a disciple. β
Qi Ning had already concluded that Wu Yi was a fake, but at this time, after listening to Elder Baihu's personal confirmation, he knew that there was no mistake in his judgment.
"Elder White Tiger, you immediately send someone to the Shadow Crane Villa." Xiang Baiying instructed: "Be smart, go and find out what the current situation of the Shadow Crane Villa is, but don't alarm the people in the villa." β
Elder White Tiger looked puzzled, but he didn't ask much, and arched his hand: "My subordinates will arrange it." Helper, you don't look good, do you want to go to the back hall to recuperate? β
Xiang Baiying was not verbose, got up, Elder White Tiger led the way in front, went out from the back door of the main hall, behind is a courtyard, there is a horse shed in the left corner, there are two horses tied to it, and there is a row of dwellings behind, Elder White Tiger led Xiang Baiying and Qi Ning into a room, the house is also very clean, Qi Ning helped Xiang Baiying to lie on the bed, Elder White Tiger went out and personally fetched tea, poured a glass of water for Xiang Baiying, and then asked: "Why is the helper like this?" β
Xiang Baiying didn't explain, and said, "Elder White Tiger, I may have to stay here for a while, how many people are here?" β
After all, Elder White Tiger is also an old Jianghu, and when he heard Xiang Baiying's question, he seemed to understand something, and immediately said: "Rest assured, Xinping Town is the location of the Kui Wood Wolf Helm, and there are dozens of good hands, and the subordinates immediately sent people to transfer some more people from around to ensure the safety of the gang leader." β
Xiang Baiying bowed slightly, he was not greedy for life and afraid of death, but he knew in his heart that he was powerless at the moment, and once that group of opponents came over, he would definitely not be an opponent.
Since those people dare to take the initiative against the beggar gang, their strength is naturally extraordinary, and only relying on some of the disciples of the beggar gang to guard them may not be able to guarantee Xiang Baiying's absolute safety.
Xiang Baiying knew that as long as he lived, the other party would not attack Lu Shanghe and his wife, and his own life was related to the life and death of Lu Shanghe and his wife.
There are many masters of the beggar gang, as long as the elite experts are mobilized, the opponent does not dare to act rashly.
Elder White Tiger retreated, came back after a while, and said: "Helper, my subordinates have already sent people to Shadow Crane Villa to inquire about the news, and they have also sent people to transfer people to the vicinity of Xinping Town. β
Qi Ning was slightly relieved when he saw that Elder White Tiger had all made arrangements, thinking that since Xiang Baiying had already arrived at the helm of the beggar gang, it could be regarded as safe.
Although it is possible that the other party will come to assassinate when Xiang Baiying's internal strength is exhausted, but after all, it is already going to confront the beggar gang head-on, looking at today's martial arts, I am afraid that there are few forces that dare to directly confront the beggar gang head-on, and the other party really wants to act, and he must also weigh the consequences.
Qi Ning stayed in the old mansion this night, and early the next morning, Elder White Tiger arranged breakfast and came to report: "Helper, there have been another group of brothers last night, and now the entire Xinping Town is under our ears and eyes. β
At noon, Elder White Tiger came to report again: "Helper, there are already more than 400 of our brothers in Xinping Town, and every street in the town has our eyeline, and in addition, subordinates have sent people outside the town to keep an eye on every road in and out of Xinping Town, so as to prevent suspicious characters from entering the town. β
Qi Ning thought to himself, no wonder the beggar gang is known as the largest gang in the world, and the efficiency of this action is really amazing.
Last night, there were only about 100 beggar gang disciples in Xinping Town, but after half a day, hundreds of people have been reinforced, and the beggar gang has ears and eyes all over the world.
Now the entire Xinping Town is under the control of the beggar gang, and if those people want to find and try to hunt down the leader of the beggar gang, they will undoubtedly kill themselves.
At dusk, Elder White Tiger came in again to report, "Helper, the brother sent to Shadow Crane Villa has come back from inquiring about the news. β
Xiang Baiying was most concerned about the condition of Lu Shanghe and his wife, and reluctantly stood up and asked, "How is the situation over there?" β
"Shadow Crane Villa is empty." Elder White Tiger said: "My subordinates sent four clever brothers to investigate, they went over last night overnight, and they have been guarding outside the Shadow Crane Villa, not daring to alarm the people inside, but last night, the Shadow Crane Villa was not lit up a single light, and today there was no movement, a brother deliberately pretended to beg and approached the past, and found that the gate of the Shadow Crane Villa was empty, but the village was empty. β
"Not a single one?" Xiang Baiying frowned.
Elder White Tiger said, "They have checked, and there is indeed no one in the villa, but the furnishings in the lobby are a little messy, and it seems that someone is rummaging through the cabinets in the Shadow Crane Villa. β
Xiang Baiying's expression was even more solemn, Qi Ning knew Xiang Baiying's mood, and said in a low voice: "Xiang Gang Master, you don't have to worry too much, the villa is empty, that proves that the owner of Lu Zhuang and his wife have not been killed for the time being." β
"Lord Lu was killed?" Elder White Tiger was taken aback, "Helper, what happened?" Lu Shanghe of Shadow Crane Villa is also a well-known figure in Xichuan, he has a wide range of friends, has excellent connections in Xichuan, and is also benevolent, and he has never heard of him having a grudge against anyone. β
Xiang Baiying didn't explain much, but just ordered: "Leave someone over there to keep an eye on it, and if there is any movement, report it immediately." β
"Don't worry, there are still three brothers watching over there, and as soon as there is news, come back immediately to report it." Elder White Tiger said respectfully, then stepped forward and said softly, "Is the helper seriously injured?" Do you want..... Do you want to ask someone to come and help? β
He didn't say that he would ask for a doctor, obviously knowing that a top master like Xiang Baiying, once he was really seriously injured, it was by no means an ordinary doctor who could treat him, so he could only invite some friends from the rivers and lakes to come and help recuperate.
Xiang Baiying shook his head and said, "Don't publicize this matter to the outside world, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble." Slightly frowned: "Mobilizing a large number of people to come over, will it alarm the town?" β
Xiang Baiying immediately said: "The gang leader doesn't have to worry, his subordinates have already thought about it in advance, and they are worried that a large number of disciples will come and cause a commotion in the town, so they all come here in makeup." At present, there are more than 100 people in the town, many of them are pretending to be travelers, and the rest of the disciples are scattered outside the town, controlling the roads, but they hide their tracks and will not be easily discovered. β
Xiang Baiying bowed slightly, and said, "This will be difficult for you." β
Qi Ning saw that Elder White Tiger had arranged it in an orderly manner, and there was no problem with Xiang Baiying's safety now, so he was relieved and said, "Xiang Gang Master, since this side has been arranged, I will go to Chengdu first." The people from the Shenhou Mansion are all waiting in Chengdu, I'll go and say hello to them, and ....... another! β
Xiang Baiying said with a smile: "I originally wanted to go to the capital with you, but now it seems that it will not be." This is the beggar gang rudder, I'll be fine, you don't delay here. When I recover, I will naturally go to the capital to find you. β
Qi Ning stretched out his hand to hold Xiang Baiying's hand and said, "Uncle Xiang, then I will wait for you in the capital, you have to take care of yourself." β
This time Xiang Baiying was in distress, in the final analysis, the other party was coming for the beggar gang, Qi Ning knew such a trick, Xiang Baiying, as the leader of the dignified beggar gang, could naturally handle it, and now that Xiang Baiying has ensured his personal safety, he doesn't have to worry about not being able to find out who the assassins are.
He remembered Heiyan Cave Eve in his heart, and Qi Feng and the others were waiting for him to hear from him in Heiyan Cave, not to mention that the people from the Shenhou Mansion and Qiu Qian Yi were also waiting in Chengdu, after the battle of Qianwuling, he still had to return to the capital as soon as possible to show the little emperor what happened in Xichuan, and there was really not much time to delay here.
Xiang Baiying smiled and nodded slightly, and Elder White Tiger arched his hand and said, "Little Hou Ye, thank you for escorting the gang leader back, Xiao Hou Ye's kindness will not be forgotten by the beggar gang." β
Qi Ning smiled slightly, didn't say much, said goodbye to Baiying, and went out, Elder White Tiger followed out of the door, and ordered someone to prepare the car, the sun set, Elder White Tiger personally sent Qi Ning out of the town, when the carriage walked in the town, Qi Ning saw that everything was as usual in Xinping Town, and he couldn't see that there were a large number of beggar disciples pouring in, thinking that the beggar disciples' disguise was not weak, and every pedestrian on this street could be dressed by a beggar disciple.
Out of the town, Elder Baihu sent out a few more miles, and then approached the side of the carriage and said: "Little Marquis, take care all the way, it is only more than twenty miles north of Chengdu Mansion." β
Qi Ning lifted the curtain and said, "Elder White Tiger, you have to worry a lot about helping you." β
"It's my job." Elder White Tiger said: "Those people dare to assassinate the gang leader, that is, they are enemies of our beggar gang, no matter if that group of people flees to the ends of the earth, the beggar gang will never spare them." β
Qi Ning smiled and bowed his hand, thinking that this was a matter for the beggars after all, and he didn't say much, said goodbye to Elder White Tiger, and the carriage headed north.
After traveling more than ten miles, the sun has set, and before the sky gets dark, according to the current speed, you can rush to Chengdu Mansion.
Qi Ning leaned in the carriage, closed his eyes and recuperated, suddenly, his eyes suddenly opened, his face became extremely solemn, he stepped forward and lifted the curtain, and saw that the driver of the carriage was very skillful, and said in a deep voice: "Stop the carriage!" β
The coachman grabbed the reins of the horse, turned around and said, "Little Marquis, what do you command?" β
"Are you a disciple of the Beggar Gang?" Qi Ning asked, staring at the man's eyes.
The coachman nodded and said, "When I was young, the disciple of the Kui Wood Wolf was ordered by the elder to deliver the little marquis to Chengdu Mansion safely. β
"Let me ask you, how many people have come to Xinping Town from last night to today?" Qi Ning's expression was grim: "Is there a large number of beggar disciples rushing to Xinping Town?" β
