Chapter Twenty-Six: Fishing in Troubled Waters
(Ask for collection and recommendation)
Yawning along the way, Hu Guiyang returned to the alley of Guanyin Temple, and before he stepped into the alley, three brothers immediately came up from different directions.
"Hey, three brothers, where are you going?" Hu Guiyang greeted warmly.
"You dare to come back?" "Why are you coming back?" "How did you get back?"
Three people and three questions.
Hu Guiyang yawned again, "After a busy night, go home and sleep - Zhao's house is still my home, right?" β
The three of them glanced at each other, and one said, "Go see the eldest brother." The other said, "Of course, I want to see the fifth brother." The third person was noncommittal.
Hu Guiyang ignored them and continued to walk into the alley, greeting people when he saw them along the way.
The residents in the alley are either Zhao Jiayizi or old neighbors for many years, they all know each other, and they usually have to bow their hands at least when they meet, but today they have all changed, seeing Hu Guiyang is like meeting a ghost, and the slow response is still surrendered, but he can't say a word in his mouth, and he turns around and runs away with a quick reaction, whether it is his own or someone else's house, he can drill it.
Hu Guiyang still didn't care, and walked with a smile, and the three brothers behind caught up and followed more than ten steps behind, and their opinions were obviously not unified.
There was no one in the huge Zhao house, Hu Guiyang still entered the front hall, and found that the coffin was gone, so he had to go out to find a guest room, take off his shoes, and fall asleep on the kang.
This sleep was groggy, during which he seemed to be pushed and shouted, Hu Guiyang's answer in the dream was impeccable, in fact, it was just a few mmmmmm
When he woke up, the sky was still bright, and Hu Guiyang slept very uncomfortably, but the sound in his ears was too noisy, so he couldn't help sleeping, so he had to open his eyes, and it took a while to understand that someone was arguing in the house.
ββ¦β¦ It's not just me, but a few brothers, all of whom have seen it with their own eyes, can there be a fake? β
"It's not fake, but this is the third or sixth brother, and the person is back, I'm afraid there is a misunderstanding......"
"Although he is his own brother, he is not small......
Hu Guiyang turned over and sat up, rubbed his eyes, and said, "Big brother, fifth brother, you are here." β
Hu Guishen and Hu Guimeng immediately shut up.
Hu Guimeng personally led the team to round up the Vulcan Sect last night, capturing more than a hundred people, but missing the most important leaders, so he was very annoyed and stepped forward, "Why did you appear in the Fire God Temple yesterday?" β
Hu Guiyang stretched his waist, "The underground is called the Vermilion Bird Temple, and the one on the ground is the Fire Temple, listen to their meaning, the Fire Temple is for ordinary people, and the Vermilion Bird Temple is a place for faithful believers." According to my understanding, the god of fire is the emperor, although his status is high, but he doesn't care about things, the Suzaku Temple is the council room, and the old mother of the fire is the prime minister and the elder of the pavilion, and the status is lower, but he has real power in his hands. β
The eldest and fifth were dumbfounded.
"Y-You've joined the Vulcan Cult?" The boss, Hu Guishen, was both surprised and worried, "Do you know who that group of people is?" β
"If you know a little bit of the doctrine, even if you join the sect, which of our brothers has not joined a few cults?"
The "Captain of the Absolute Son" specializes in arresting those who deceive the public with gossip and deceive the people in various places, and has a lot of contact with various sects.
Hu Guishen's face softened, "I'll just say, the third and sixth brothers must be going to investigate the case." β
Hu Guimeng didn't believe it, "How can it be so coincidental...... I ask you, how did you find where to go? β
"Mistakenly. Hehe, the Vermilion Bird Temple has a hidden exit, and the fifth brother started to arrest people without verifying it, and he was a little impatient. β
Hu Guimeng's face was cold, "The Vulcan Sect is only a part of the outer path of the inclined gate of the capital...... How did you become a 'Descendant of Vulcan'? β
"This has wronged me, the fifth brother should have seen it last night, I happened to be standing there, and the flame happened to rise, what kind of heir?"
"Then why do you say, 'All beings bow down'? Did you know that after you disappeared, all the believers there, and some of the officers and soldiers, knelt down to the flames? β
"Officers and soldiers also kneel?" Hu Guiyang thought it was funny, "That's a joke, I didn't expect anyone to take it seriously." β
Hu Gui endured and endured it fiercely, without getting angry, "It was the Fire God Sect elder who took you away, right?" Where are they? Who are they? β
"A blacksmith, a charcoalworker, a ......"
"I want a name."
"They don't say."
"Then find someone to draw it."
"Mask-covered." Hu Guiyang lied casually, "If it weren't for that, they wouldn't have let me come back." β
Hu Guimeng didn't get angry, but his tone softened, "Third and sixth brother, things are getting bigger and bigger, if you continue to mess around like this, no one can help you." β
"Fifth brother reminded me correctly, if I think of something, I will tell you immediately. By the way, did any of my brothers have an accident last night? β
The eldest brother and the fifth brother glanced at each other, and Hu Guishen said, "Nineteen." β
The smile on Hu Guiyang's face disappeared, and Hu Guirui, the nineteenth lang, was free and easy by nature, uninhibited, and had excellent popularity among the brothers.
"Where?" Hu Guiyang asked.
"Just in the front hall, after removing the coffin, he went back to sweep the floor......" Hu Guishen sighed, unable to continue.
"When?" Hu Guiyang had already guessed the answer in his heart.
"At night." Hu Guishen was vague.
"There's scars on the body, and the killer ran away, right?"
"No one doubts you, you weren't in the city at all last night, and many people can testify for you."
Hu Guiyang laughed, "I'm not in the city, but I'm participating in the evil god sacrifice outside the city." β
Hu Guimeng couldn't bear it anymore, "Sanliu, when has this been, you still have to speak yin and yang, what do you know?" Suspect what? β
Hu Guiyang stood up on the kang, condescending, and said loudly: "I know that someone is setting up a game with the aim of creating a living demon fox, I suspect all of you, yes, it's everyone!" β
Hu Gui glared angrily, Hu Guishen couldn't help but shake his head, "Sanliu, what you said is really hurtful, we are all helping you, spare no effort." β
Hu Guiyang sneered, "The three elder brothers were killed one after another, and they all happened in the alley of Guanyin Temple, dozens of brothers were strictly guarded, and they let the murderer come and go freely, in the eyes of outsiders, this is a demon fox committing a crime, in my opinion, there is only one explanation: the murderer is among us, and there is more than one." β
The room was quiet for a while, and Hu Gui said angrily: "You don't know how to do it!" β
"Don't know what's wrong? I think my eyes are bright. Hu Guiyang laughed and lowered his voice, "There have been several assassinations, but only one was unsuccessful. Fifth brother, did you really encounter an ambush when you went out of the city to meet the sixteenth brother? The sixteenth brother escaped, I'm afraid it wasn't because of his strong martial arts, right? β
Hu Guimeng's face turned red, "What do you mean?" Do you suspect that I colluded with my sixteenth brother to frame you? β
"I just said it, I doubt everyone."
The two brothers glared at each other, and neither of them would back down, and the eldest Hu Guishen stepped forward to persuade him, "With so many things happening, it is inevitable that we will be suspicious of each other, but after all, we are brothers and have the same father-in-law." β
Hu Gui sneered: "Sanliu said, he suspects everyone, and the eldest brother is no exception. β
"If the third and sixth brothers really doubt me...... I can't help it. Hu Guishen smiled wryly.
"Two brothers, don't waste time with me, it's better to discuss how to turn me into a demon fox perfectly."
Hu Gui suddenly changed color, glared at Hu Guiyang, and finally turned around and left, without saying a word.
Hu Guishen stayed and patiently persuaded: "Third and sixth brother, if you say that some of our brothers have different hearts, I believe it, but you have offended all the brothers, what good will it do you?" β
"Just let everyone know that I don't have a good relationship with my brothers, so that you can say that I have become a demon in the future."
"The more youβthe more you talk, the more unpleasant it becomes." Hu Guishen's temper has always been mild, but at this time, he was also a little dissatisfied, and he shook his hand to leave.
Hu Guiyang said, "Big brother, please do me a favor." β
Hu Guishen stopped and said coldly: "Say it, don't go too far." β
"It's not too much, please give a message to Xichang Wang."
"It's not like I can see him if I want to."
"It doesn't matter, when you see it, when you bring it."
Hu Guishen pondered for a while, "Okay, what's the matter?" β
"Tomorrow after noon, I will go to see Lord Yuan."
Hu Guishen was stunned for a moment, "What are you doing to meet Lord Yuan?" Have you found the whereabouts of your father's body? β
"I'm just asking my eldest brother to pass on a word, whether you can understand it or not, that's Wang Zhi's business."
Hu Guishen shook his head in confusion, "The name of the factory is not called casually, you are half a public person, be careful." β
The eldest brother and fifth brother are gone, Hu Guiyang has no sense of pride, his current strategy is to make everything clear and make the situation more chaotic as much as possible, in this process, it is inevitable that many good people will be wronged.
"It's already three, how many do you have to kill before you want to stop?" Hu Guiyang muttered, when it comes to fishing in troubled waters, the "demon fox" who secretly planned everything is the real master.
After sitting alone on the kang for a while, the third and ninth brother Hu Guida came in with food, and he didn't speak, he was about to leave, obviously he heard the words of the third and sixth brother "suspicious of everyone" and felt hurt.
"Wait." Hu Guiyang shouted.
"There's no poison in the rice." Hu Guida said coldly.
"I haven't turned into a demon fox yet, no one will poison me."
Hu Gui's face turned red with anger, "You even doubt me?" Suspect that everything I've done before is framing you? β
Hu Guiyang looked at Brother Sanjiu, his eyes were clear, and he seemed to be smiling, "I hope there is someone who can make me believe, but the price of doing so may be me, as well as the lives of many brothers." β
Hu Guida's expression softened slightly, "I decided to follow the eldest brother in the future, I am a stupid person, only suitable for running errands, and the fifth brother is more strict, I am afraid that I will not be able to keep up." β
"A wise choice."
"Brother Sanliu should also choose a side, relying on yourself alone, it is impossible to escape the predicament."
"Don't worry, I have too many choices now, it's a bit dazzling." Hu Guiyang said with a smile.
"What's the matter with Brother Sanliu?" Hu Guida suddenly became cold again.
"Who decided to move the coffin?"
"The body is not there, and the coffin is not appropriate there...... Why do you ask this? β
"There are some clues in the coffin, and the person who decided to move it away is the person I suspect the most."
Hu Guida was silent for a long time, "I have followed my eldest brother, do you still believe what he said?" β
"Sure enough, it's the fifth brother." Hu Guiyang smiled slightly, this was the answer he wanted to get.
He had a hunch that the final moment was near.
