Chapter 13: Champion Heroes: Behind the Scenes!

Fu Dingbo, Qin Ze and others came to Guanjiezhuang, and the people from the rivers and lakes who had been waiting there for a long time also looked at them. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoSomeone whispered: "I didn't expect the Four Heroes of Huangshan to have also arrived." "Could it be that Qin Ze and Qin Erxia, who have become famous in the past two years? It is rumored that this person is righteous and wealthy, and he is a well-known figure. ”

During the period, there were also some people who came to greet them, the so-called heroes, originally had to be well-connected, go out, everyone will give some thin noodles, in order to be qualified to be heroes, otherwise, even if the martial arts are high, it is inevitable to be constrained.

Guanjie Village occupies a large area, and a man stands in front of the village, directing everyone in the village to entertain everyone. Guanjie Zhuang's family has a big business, and naturally there are many diners, but at this time, these people look at the people from all over the world, or they are at a loss, or frowning. There are also some who hold their unsheathed swords tightly, ready to kill as a last resort.

Qin Ze, Fu Dingbo and others stepped forward and presented their prayers. The man was neither arrogant nor humble, and hugged his fists and said: "It turns out that the Four Heroes of Huangshan, Qin Erxia, and the Lord of Hemen have arrived, and our person Xin Cheng'an is the steward of Zhuangzhong." The thin wine that has been prepared inside, a few heroes please. ”

Qin Ze, Fu Dingbo, Helian Feng and others followed a diner into the village, where many invited and famous figures in the rivers and lakes have gathered. Qin Ze and Fu Dingbo looked at it, Huang Liang Zhenren, the elder of the Daomen Yuding faction, He Chong, the leader of the Collapsed Mountain Mystery Sect, Zhou Laoyan, the famous hero of Linghai, and Li Zhiyi, the chivalrous woman of the Tianhua Sword Sect, were all here.

Everyone greeted each other, but Xin Guanbin, the owner of Guanjie Village, never appeared, just let his disciples and diners in the village entertain him.

If it is according to the normal situation, since someone enters the village with a worship post, there is also hospitality in the village, then there is a person at the door who sings a promise, and every guest who enters the village is called famous. However, at this moment, these guests here were not originally invited by Guanjiezhuang, but came at the hero's post from Jianyanling, and Guanjiezhuang's party was willing to entertain with a banquet, which was already considered benevolent and righteous.

Of course, because there are so many people, those who can be invited into the village are all characters with heads and faces.

In this way, the sun gradually moved to the sky, and although it was March, it was strangely hot today.

Suddenly, a loud voice came from outside: "The big leader of Arrow Goose Ridge Shu Changshu has arrived!" ”

When other people entered the village, they didn't sing a promise at the door, but at this time, there was a sudden sound of singing, which obviously meant that the big play officially began. Fu Dingbo, Qin Ze and others looked and saw a big man leading four people into the village with a swagger. The big man, with a wide face and a high forehead, a slightly straight nose, wearing a fur coat, and a domineering body, is the head of the eighteen arrows and geese, the "golden knife" Shuchang. And the four people behind him have long been recognized, they are Ji Rongfa, the fifth master of Jianyan Mountain, the "Shadow Whip" Yin Buyang, the fourteenth master "Heart Piercing Sword" Zhu Minghui, and the fifteenth master "Demon Spirit" Jing Buyan.

Arrow Goose Eighteen Heroes, at this moment "Golden Knife" Shu Chang not only shot in person, but also brought four masters, just by this, you can know that this trip to Arrow Goose Ridge is bound to win.

Shu Chang entered the village and said loudly: "Arrow Goose Golden Knife, come to visit the owner of Guanjie Village!" ”

This sound, although it is not a big shout, its sound has covered the entire manor and its surroundings, and there is a sense of lightning and thunder in the air.

In the depths of the courtyard, a slightly cold answer came: "The old man has been waiting for a long time!" ”

Everyone looked, only to see the owner of Guanjie Village, Xin Guanbin, stepping out, about fifty years old, in fact, he can't be considered too old, calling himself an old man, and there is a suspicion of relying on the old and selling the old in the face of a strong enemy who came to the door. He has a fat stomach and wears a wide brocade robe. Behind him, all the disciples lined up.

The entire Southwest Seven Road has been in chaos in the past few years, but Guanjiezhuang has always been able to stand, mainly relying on Xin Guanbin's strong strength and popularity. Despite this, the strength of Guanjiezhuang is still not comparable to that of Jianyanling, which has tens of thousands of horses. Only this time, Shu Chang followed the rules of the rivers and lakes, and after sending a hero post, he came to visit. Since the rules of the rivers and lakes are used, everything pays attention to a rational word, and the number of soldiers and horses is not a decisive factor.

Xin Guanbin said lightly: "I heard that Leader Shu sent a hero post and invited all friends from the rivers and lakes to come together, to ask the old man for justice." Anyway, the old man drew a line here, I don't know what the leaders have to say? ”

Shu Chang took a step forward, hugged his fists in all directions and said: "Yes, I invite everyone this time to come here, just to ask everyone to be a witness." Expose the behavior of this treacherous villain who sells his reputation and fishes, and removes a scourge for the rivers and lakes. ”

Xin Guanbin didn't laugh angrily: "I'm a treacherous villain? The old man is a treacherous villain? Okay, I'll wait here today, Leader Shu might as well talk about how treacherous and villain I Xin are? ”

At this moment, some of the people from the rivers and lakes who were originally outside the village had already rushed in from the main gate behind Shu Chang. Some are climbing the wall, with three layers inside and three layers outside, surrounded by people. Among them, there are also people who have received a lot of favors from Guanjiezhuang in their daily lives, and then shouted: "Yes, the owner of Xin Zhuang has always been righteous and squandering money, and righteousness is thin and cloudy, how can he be a treacherous villain?" "Master Xinzhuang, don't worry, if Jianyanling can't come up with evidence, but just spews blood, we will definitely stand on the side of Guanjiezhuang." "Not bad, not bad!"

Shu Chang didn't look at Xin Guanbin, and continued to say to everyone: "Since I dare to post a heroic post, then there is naturally evidence, I don't know everyone, have you ever heard of the Black Court Ghost Sect?" ”

The noise around slowly quieted down, and even those who helped Xin Guanbin speak couldn't help but look at each other.

Shu Chang said: "This Black Court Ghost Sect, everyone has already heard of it. It was originally a killer organization, collecting money and killing people, and then slowly, it also did a lot of more unseemly things, abducting and selling young children, robbing weak girls, killing people and goods, everything. In the past few years, there have been many innocent people who have been ruined by the Southwest Seven Road alone. It's just that the people behind it have always been hidden, although there are also many people who are tracking down the main messenger behind the Black Court Ghost Sect, but in the end, they always fail to find really useful clues, but many people have been killed because of this. ”

Everyone couldn't help but look at each other, the notoriety of the Black Court Ghost Sect, most people had indeed heard of it. If it is said that it was just a secret killer organization at the beginning, it is okay, killers are like prostitutes, from ancient times to the present, they have always been unable to eliminate, then what they have done recently has become more and more excessive, especially in the past two or three years, relying on the chaos in the world, I don't know how much bloody wealth has been accumulated.

Shu Chang continued: "However, everyone doesn't know that the reason why the mastermind behind the Black Court Ghost Sect has never been able to be found is because that person is a well-known hero in the rivers and lakes, and he puts on a posture of helping the world and saving the people and helping the poor on weekdays, and has won a reputation for righteousness, so that no one has ever suspected him. But secretly, that heroic man doesn't know how many evil things he has done, and he is actually a well-dressed beast with ambitions. ”

Everyone couldn't help but look at Xin Guanbin, the heroic man who helped the world save the people, helped the poor and the poor, and was righteous, and the one who Shu Chang pointed to was obviously Xin Guanbin.

Xin Guanbin didn't laugh angrily, but looked quite sad and angry: "Okay! Good! It seems that the despicable person you are talking about is the old man, but the old man wants to know, what evidence do you have, that the old man is the mastermind behind the Black Court Ghost Sect? ”

Shu Changbing said coldly: "If there is no evidence, I don't dare to come." ”

Looking around, he said: "The Black Court Ghost Sect has done a lot of evil, and these days, it is stirring up wind and rain everywhere, and I don't know how many people have been harmed by it. I, Jianyanling, intend to eliminate harm for the people, and I have been secretly investigating matters related to the Black Court Ghost Sect, but fortunately, the emperor has lived up to his painstaking efforts and finally found clues by us. I don't know if you have ever heard of Wuzhou Confucian Sun Ding? Although this person has the fame of Xiucai and is a scholar, he is both civil and military, and he is a righteous warrior on weekdays, and he can be regarded as half a Jianghu person. A few days ago, Sun Ding abandoned Confucianism and Moxi, and felt that the world was in turmoil, and the people were not able to make a living, so he sold his family property, ran around, pulled a lot of donations, and pulled it to Yingzhou with a dart car, wanting to buy grain and grass there, and came to the southwest west road to help the poor people who had not eaten because of the war over the years. ”

continued: "This was originally a chivalrous act, but my second brother, 'Hidden Tai Sui' Zhuo Huide, but in the process of investigating the Black Court Ghost Sect, he accidentally discovered that the people of the Black Court Ghost Sect wanted to do something to this silver cart that was originally used for disaster relief and rescue. So, my second brother found the Confucian Sun Ding and told him the truth. In the end, the two made a plan, they thought that if they could not dig up the roots of the Black Court Ghost Sect, they would not know how many people would be persecuted by it in the future, so before escorting the dart cart, they remelted those silver ingots and added a special mineral. This mineral, on the surface, is indistinguishable from silver and can be melted with silver ingots, but when cooled and stored for a long time, it emits a smell that is difficult for ordinary people to notice, but can be smelled by specially trained dogs. Later, as expected, the silver car was hijacked. Together with Sun Daxia and several masters of the Ink Sect, we used the invisible smell emitted by the special mineral to trace the whereabouts of the silver all the way, hoping to find out the means of the Black Court Ghost Sect to launder the silver. In the end, it was found that those silver taels had actually entered a money bank. ”

He clapped his hands, and behind him someone presented a square wooden plate, in which were placed some silver ingots, which were neatly arranged. "Golden Knife" Shu Chang picked up a piece, held it on a high place, and said loudly: "Everyone can take a look." Although it is difficult to distinguish this ore from silver, it will glow a different color when left in the sunlight for a long time. ”

Fu Dingbo, Qin Ze and others, looking from a distance, saw that the silver ingot in his hand, held under the sun in the spring of March, emitted a color that was indeed a little different from the normal silver ingot, mixed with gray mottled in the silver light. If it's in the house, or in the shadows, I'm afraid I can't pay attention at all, but under the comfortable deliberate reminder and the sunlight, it is quite obvious.

Shu Chang shouted: "Let's look again! He took the ingots one by one, and turned them toward the people. When everyone looked at it, they saw that the word "crown" was printed on the bottom of these things.

Shu Chang said: "We found that all the silver that was robbed flowed into Guanyu Qianzhuang, and many people may not know that the big boss behind this Guanyu Qianzhuang is the owner of Guanjie Village. ”

Everyone couldn't help but look at Xin Guanbin.

Guanyu Money Village is all over the world, and the big boss is the owner of Guanjie Village, although many people in the rivers and lakes do not know this, but there are actually a lot of people who know. Raising diners, forming relationships, and squandering money, which of these things does not require money? Heroes don't mean that they can be when they can, without a strong economic source, how can they win the reputation of righteousness and wealth?

As for the inscription under the silver ingot, it is not unusual. Just because, almost every money bank will remelt the silver taels of the input and engrave their own seals. In daily life, the use of silver taels is almost very rare, and many ordinary people, who have never even really seen silver, use copper coins. Silver ingots like this are mostly used in the transaction of dignitaries or nobles.

The tax collected by the government is exchanged for silver ingots melted into silver, which is marked with the seal of the government and called official silver. Because charcoal is used to melt and recast silver, "fire costs money" has become one of the harsh taxes imposed by the government. Ordinary money is marked with the imprint of the silver village itself, called private bank, although it is private bank, but if there is not enough credibility as a guarantee, any bank can not be opened.

Looking at the "crowns" on these silver ingots, everyone's eyes immediately turned to Xin Guanbin who was standing under the eaves.

Shu Chang sneered: "Over the years, the Black Court Ghost Sect has secretly done many evil things, but the silver taels and goods they have looted and looted have always disappeared out of thin air in the end, and it is difficult to trace, if there is no huge money laundering channel behind it, how to deal with those stolen silver?" It is conceivable that this time, if it were not for the help of the people of Momen, these silver taels that were originally used for disaster relief and were stolen would have appeared on the market openly after being recast by Guanyu Qianzhuang. The silver ingots from the bank, who would suspect that they came from unknown origins? I don't know how many bloody silver taels have been washed clean by this way, Master Xinzhuang, what do you say? ”

Xin Guanbin said angrily: "Not to mention my own money bank, relying on the face given by everyone, it is open all over the world, and it is difficult for me to take care of the past one by one." It's these silver ingots, you say they came from my own bank, and I can also say that they were privately melted by you, and they were put on a 'crown' to frame the old man. Just because of this, it is said that the old man laundered money for the Black Court Ghost Sect, I am afraid it is not enough! (To be continued.) )
