Chapter 498: A dilemma

Qi Ning's body was shocked, and his brows were locked: "The corpse was stolen?" This is what Elder White Tiger said? ”

Xuanyuan said: "Xiang Xiang held on to the gang leader, rushed to Xinping Town, Kui Wood Wolf to divide the rudder, told the real murderer, and entrusted the beggar gang with major affairs, and then passed away." The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "solemn" expression: "Elder White Tiger knows that this matter is very important, once the news of the murder of the gang leader leaks out, he is afraid that it will cause waves, so he blocks the news, he knows that the gang leader and Lu Shanghe are righteous brothers, originally the affairs of the beggar gang should not be interfered by outsiders, but Xiang Gang and Lu Shanghe are brothers, and now that he is killed, Elder White Tiger wants to discuss the future with Lu Shanghe." ”

Qi Ning thought to himself that after escaping from Baiying, these two despicable people really had another plan, and asked, "How was the corpse of the gang leader stolen?" "I really want to know what tricks those two are going to play.

"Elder White Tiger placed the corpse of the gang leader in a hidden place, and sent the best guards in the gang to guard it." Xuanyuan Po said slowly: "According to what he said, he was going to send someone to send a message to the other three elders who had already been in the Shenhou Mansion, but after Lu Shanghe arrived, the two went to see the body of the gang leader together, but found that the body was gone. ”

Qi Ning's heart was calm, and he instantly understood that the six beggar gang disciples could only die in the hands of the white tiger, and secretly thought that these two people were really vicious, and for the sake of layout, they didn't care about the lives of the six beggar gang disciples.

But thinking that these two people even dared to murder the leader of the beggar gang, what was the mere six beggar gang disciples.

"In other words, except for the White Tiger Elder and a few Beggar Gang disciples, no one has seen the body of the Xiang Gang Master." Qi Ning said lightly: "The dying entrustment to the gang leader is just the words of the White Tiger family. ”

Wei Shutong was so sophisticated, how could he not hear the suspicion in Qi Ning's words, and stroked his beard and said: "Captain Xuanyuan, Master Hou, originally I didn't interfere much in the affairs of the rivers and lakes, but after all, it happened on the ground in Xichuan, so I took the liberty to say a few words." ”

Captain Xuanyuan immediately said: "This case, there will be a lot of trouble for Lord Wei in the future, if Lord Wei finds anything, please give me advice!" ”

Wei Shutong smiled: "There are only a few things I don't understand. First of all, the Eight Gangs and Sixteen Factions attacked Qianwuling, and once forced the Black Lotus Sect into a desperate situation, so the Black Lotus Sect should also understand that with their strength, it is almost impossible to contend with the Eight Gangs and Sixteen Factions, and the Swing Yi can enter the capital to subdue the law, which can also be seen that they really don't want to continue the war, in this case, why would the Black Lotus Sect Leader kill the Beggar Gang Leader? Isn't this to provoke an even bigger fight? ”

"The Black Lotus Sect is evil and vicious, although the Black Lotus Sect Master is a great grandmaster, he acts sneakily, maybe he has a grudge against the eight gangs and sixteen factions attacking Qianwuling, so he wants to take revenge." After Yan Lingxian entered the door, he didn't say anything, and finally said at this time: "Demons and ghosts, acting is not in accordance with common sense. ”

"There may be some truth to what the captain said." Wei Shutong was not offended, and said with a smile: "If it is said that the Black Lotus Sect Leader really killed the Gang Leader, then the purpose should be achieved, why did he steal the corpse of the Gang Leader?" Of course, it is also possible that the corpse of the gang leader was not stolen by the Black Lotus Sect, but apart from the Black Lotus Sect, who in the whole world dares to enter the beggar gang rudder, kill the disciples of the beggar gang, and steal the corpse of the gang leader? ”

Yan Lingxian opened his mouth, but he didn't speak.

Qi Ning thought to himself that Wei Shutong was not an ordinary person after all, and he could see the problem at a glance.

Xuanyuan Po groaned slightly, and finally said: "What Master Wei said is extremely true, and he did have this doubt at the beginning. Later, I learned that the Black Lotus Sect might have even bigger plans. ”

"Oh?" Qi Ning picked up the teacup and asked, "How do you say this?" ”

"There is no dead body, and the news was blocked at the beginning, and few people in the rivers and lakes knew that Xiang Gang Leader was killed." Xuanyuan said: "Lord Wei is extremely reasonable, if you can't see the corpse, you are despicable, and I don't believe that masters like Xiang Gang Leader will be killed." ”

Qi Ning nodded slightly, and Xuanyuan said, "And the purpose of the Black Lotus Sect in stealing the corpse is to make it impossible for the White Tiger Elder to prove that the Xiang Gang Leader has indeed been killed. ”

Qi Ning sighed and said, "Captain Xuanyuan, I am a little confused when you say this. Do you mean to say that the Black Lotus Sect Leader killed Xiang Gang Leader, but he was afraid that the rivers and lakes would know that Xiang Gang Leader was killed, so he stole the corpse, to put it bluntly, the Black Lotus Sect Leader was afraid that this matter would be made public? ”

"The great master, since he has done it, he is afraid of the tail and does not dare to take responsibility, this is ...... It's not like the style of a master. Wei Shu said.

Xuanyuan said: "Yes, I said that the Black Lotus Sect has a bigger plan. After a pause, he said: "Before Xiang Gang Leader died, he said something to Elder White Tiger, according to Elder White Tiger, the Black Lotus Sect seems to want to let people control the beggar gang instead of Xiang Gang Leader after killing Xiang Gang Leader. ”

Wei Shutong changed color slightly, although Qi Ning knew that this was all the conspiracy of the White Tiger, he also frowned and asked, "Instead of Xiang Gang Leader to control the beggar gang?" Isn't this a fool's dream? What is the ability of the Black Lotus Sect to replace Xiang Gang Leader. ”

Xuanyuan Po asked, "Master Hou, the ghost envoy of the Black Lotus Sect, Luo Wuying, you should still remember. This person's disguise technique is in the world, and it can definitely be ranked among the top three. ”

Qi Ning immediately understood the meaning: "You mean, the Black Lotus Sect killed the Xiang Gang Leader, and then let Luo Wuying become the Xiang Gang Leader, so as to control the Beggar Gang?" ”

"Before Xiang Gang Master died, he was powerless to say more, but the meaning that was revealed was like this." Xuanyuan said: "This matter has not yet spread in the rivers and lakes, but the White Tiger Elder has already sent a message to report to the Xichuan Beggars Gang, but if you see someone pretending to be the gang leader, you will be killed immediately." ”

Qi Ning's heart sank, secretly thinking that the White Tiger's move was really vicious, in this way, even if he really appeared to Baiying, he would be mistaken by the beggar disciples for the Black Lotus Sect's fake and killed, the White Tiger naturally knew that Xiang Baiying's martial arts were all lost now, so when the beggar disciples met Xiang Baiying, they didn't have to worry about Xiang Baiying having the power to resist.

But it immediately occurred to me that Xiang Baiying's evaluation of the White Tiger's talent was mediocre, and such an insidious and vicious trick was probably Lu Shanghe's behind the scenes.

Qi Ning knew that as long as he informed Xuanyuan Po now that Xiang Baiying was hiding in the Black Rock Ridge Funeral Cave and personally accompanied Xuanyuan Po to see him, the White Tiger's conspiracy would be immediately exposed.

However, he repeatedly told Baiying that he must not reveal his hiding place, or even tell the empty treasure master of the Great Light Temple, Qi Ning naturally couldn't say it directly.

He knew very well in his heart that what Xiang Baiying was worried about was that after someone knew where he was hiding, he would control it in his hands, so as to manipulate the beggar gang, as the leader of the beggar gang, Xiang Baiying must take into account the rise and fall of the beggar gang, and of course he didn't want the beggar gang to become a puppet of some ill-intentioned forces because he was controlled by others.

The Shenhou Mansion and the Jianghu forces have always used each other and beware of each other, if the Shenhou Mansion knew that Xiang Baiying was still alive and his martial arts were lost, with Ximen's traceless temperament, of course he would not miss such a great opportunity. Xiang Baiying couldn't even fully trust the empty treasure master of the Great Bright Temple, let alone the Shenhou Mansion, which was already entangled in interests.

Suddenly, Qi Ning discovered that although the conspiracy of Lu Shanghe and Baihu had many flaws, he was now in a predicament because of the other party's conspiracy.

The other party's hand can be said to be extremely powerful, not only putting Xiang Baiying in a desperate situation, but even involving himself.

On the top of the Lotus Peak, everyone saw with their own eyes that it was Jinyi Hou who was the main force to stop the war, if the matter really came to peace, then everything was easy to say, but if the war clouds rose again, and the Black Lotus Sect retaliated against the eight gangs and sixteen factions and even the Shenhou Mansion, then everyone's spearhead would inevitably be pointed at Jinyi Hou.

Cutting the grass does not remove the roots, the spring breeze blows and grows, but the grass is not cut and the roots are removed, everyone will think that it is because of the brocade clothes.

Lu Shanghe obviously knows Xiang Baiying's temperament very well, and knows that Xiang Baiying will never reveal his whereabouts if he is seriously injured, so as not to give the Shenhou Mansion and other forces a chance to control it, and the affairs of the beggar gang, Xiang Baiying certainly does not want outside forces to intervene in it, and because of this, even if Xiang Baiying is alive, it is impossible to come out to testify against the White Tiger.

The forces of the rivers and lakes are intricate, they are wary of each other, and they are clearly distinguished, Lu Shanghe, as an old Jianghu, naturally has long seen through the tricks, so he dares to take a risk, and plays such an extremely dangerous but extremely vicious move.

To expose the conspiracy of Lu Shanghe and Baihu, Qi Ning can only prove that Xiang Baiying is still alive, and to prove that he is still alive, he must show his face to Baiying, but now Xiang Baiying can't show his traces, and Qi Ning instantly feels that he is in a dilemma.

Seeing Qi Ning's solemn expression, everyone thought that he was intending to kill Baiying, and when Ximen Zhan Ying saw Qi Ning's appearance, his heart was soft.

When she saw Qi Ning's appearance, she was angry, and she couldn't help but squeeze a few words, but when she saw Qi Ning's heart, she would soften and worry.

Qi Ning knew that the entanglement of interests in the middle was complicated, and the first thing he had to do at the moment was to protect Xiang Baiying, and other things could only be done slowly, and asked, "Captain Xuanyuan's next step is to investigate whether the Black Lotus Sect has anything to do with this matter?" ”

"The Black Lotus Sect even stole the corpse capital, how can you admit it?" Yan Lingxian immediately said: "I knew this was the case, I should have cut down the Black Lotus Sect that day, and killed a chicken and dog." These demons are vicious and vicious, and they can't let it go, but now they really cause a huge disaster, and as soon as the leader of the beggar gang dies, this Jianghu guest will be in chaos. ”

His words were obviously aimed at Qi Ning, blaming Qi Ning for coming out that day and letting the Black Lotus Sect escape from death.

"Shut up!" Xuanyuan shouted in a deep voice, "When will it be your turn to speak here?" He raised his hand and said, "Get out of here." ”

Yan Lingxian was scolded by Xuanyuan Po in public, his face was red, he couldn't hang up, he lowered his head, and walked out quickly.

Qi Ning thought to himself that this Yan Lingxian was young and vigorous, and it was understandable that he was a little rushed to speak, but since he was a member of the Shenhou Mansion, he should also know the rules, he was a marquis, Wei Shu was the history of Xichuan Thorn, Xuanyuan Po had to be careful when he spoke here, where did this kid come from so boldly, he dared to express his grievances here, and dared to come at himself?

His eyes swept over Ximen Zhan Ying, and he happened to see that Ximen Zhan Ying was also looking at himself, his eyes contacted, Ximen Zhan Ying's body trembled, and he immediately turned his eyes, Qi Ning looked at Yan Lingxian who walked out of the door, and then looked at Ximen Zhan Ying, he was already very smart, and suddenly understood, and a smile appeared on his lips.
