Chapter 19: The Non-Covenant

The criminal arts know very well that although the cultural relics police do not have an official name now, they will appear sooner or later, and the market will be regulated sooner or later. But according to the rules, he can't take the initiative to tell some secrets in the industry, he can only let Fu Mingwei understand through hints, if Fu Mingwei knows his hints, find a way to learn and understand, and find out the facts through the channels he is looking for, the criminal technique is not considered a violation of the rules, and it also assists the police.

Just as Zheng Cangqiong said about torture many years ago - "No matter how strong we are, we always have the word 'common people' on our heads, and what we can do is very limited, so many things cannot be reckless, and we should ask for help when we should ask for help, instead of hiding and begging for the blessing of the gods." ”

That night, Fu Mingwei slept well in the office, while Xingshu parked the car on the bank of the river, sat in the car, and counted the carriages of the passing trains on the railway bridge all night, there were many things he still didn't understand, and there was a biggest suspicion in front of him, which he couldn't solve, because it seemed that he was the only one who discovered this suspicion, and everyone else was kept in the dark by that person.

In the early morning of the next day, the young man named Samuchuan appeared outside the antique city with his luggage at the appointed time, Tan Tong did not pick him up, but just told him the address of the antique city, and then remitted him the travel and meal expenses.

When Samuchuan got out of the private car, the woman who was driving kept waving at him, but Samuchuan just showed a sunny smile, waved goodbye, and then turned around and walked to Tan Tong and Xingju, put down his suitcase, and looked at Xingjutsu.

Torture looked at this handsome young man who was dressed casually and had a flat head, he also had a strange tattoo on his wrist, which looked like it was unique to the Miao people, and there was a string of beads on his wrist, and the muscles of his arms were bulging, so he knew that he was a martial arts practitioner at a glance.

Samuchuan nodded towards Tan Tong, and then said to the torture technique: "Boss Xing is good." ”

Torture nodded: "Hello, let's go, go in and have tea." ”

"Boss Criminal, can you negotiate the price first?" Although Samuchuan had a smile, his tone made people feel cold.

Xingshu nodded: "Yes, but it's not appropriate to talk about it here, right?" ”

"One hundred thousand." Samuchuan said directly, "I only need 100,000 yuan, RMB." ”

"Okay, no problem. ”

Samuchuan still didn't go in: "100,000, it's just the cost of the tour guide, the food, accommodation and transportation on the road are calculated separately, if I need to do something else, such as bodyguards or something, it is also calculated separately, as for the price, I have a table here." After Samuchuan finished speaking, he took out the printed price list from his pocket and handed it over.

"Tour guide? Well, that's a good name. The torturer took the form and looked at it, and found that it was written in detail, so detailed that he had a headache when he looked at it, and then he returned it to Samuchuan, "Okay, no problem." ”

Samuchuan didn't answer, but said: "Boss Criminal, I suggest you take a closer look, there is still our contract behind it, in duplicate, you and I have to sign it and stamp our fingerprints." ”

Xingshu frowned slightly, feeling that this buddy who was a few years younger than himself was simply rigid enough to erect a monument for him to pass on, so he had to stand at the door and watch carefully, and Tan Tong also leaned over to watch, not feeling that the scene in front of him was embarrassing, he had long been used to it.

After reading it, the torturer took the pen and signed the two contracts with Samuchuan, and then kept one copy each, and then Samuchuan moved his steps and followed the punishment to the pawnshop.

Back in the pawnshop, Xingshu briefly introduced Samuchuan to Yan Gang and He Chenxue, who were waiting there, and then said: "Now that the people are ready, let me talk about the plan, before 5 o'clock in the afternoon, we have to prepare the things we use, and some of the things will be purchased when we go to Changsha, and then the things will be mailed to Changsha by express delivery, which will arrive in the afternoon of the day after tomorrow at the latest." The 5 of us will be on the plane tomorrow at 7:45 p.m., and that's about it, and if you have any questions, you can raise them now. ”

When everyone nodded, Samuchuan, who looked a little wooden, raised his hand, and Tan Tong immediately said: "The ticket money is given and the punishment is not included in the remuneration." ”

"It's not." Samuchuan shook his head, "Boss Criminal, I don't know exactly where I'm going?" ”

The torture technique replied simply: "Xiangxi." ”

Samuchuan frowned: "Xiangxi is so big, can't you be more specific?" Or does it need to be kept secret for the time being? ”

The torture technique now felt that Samuchuan seemed to be a little "ignorant", or because his personality was originally like this, he had to say: "Near Lin Geshan? ”

Samuchuan still didn't seem satisfied: "Lin Geshan is also very big. ”

"Hey, can you shut up?" Tan Tong felt that his face couldn't hold it, "Mu Chuan, what's the matter with you?" It's all said, and you'll know when you get to Changsha. ”

Samuchuan sat down: "Got it." ”

Xingshu glanced at He Chenxue, in fact, he didn't know the general direction of Jiacuo Palace, and could only judge from He Yuejia's letter that it was probably near Lin Ge Mountain, maybe it was somewhere in Lin Ge Mountain.

After arranging everything, Xingshu dialed Sheng Zitai's phone number, agreed with him to meet him in the lobby of the Shangri-La Hotel, and then drove there.

Walking to the entrance of the lobby, Xingshu saw Duan Weiguo standing there alone, Duan Weiguo stepped forward and said, "Mr. Sheng is waiting for you in the room, this is not the place to talk." ”

The torture technique followed Duan Weiguo upstairs and entered the suite, but he didn't see Sheng Zitai's figure, just about to ask Duan Weiguo behind him, he suddenly felt the sound of a fist breaking wind behind him, he subconsciously turned to one side, grabbed Duan Weiguo's attacking fist, and asked, "What are you doing?" ”

Duan Weiguo retracted his fists, took two steps back, hugged his fists and saluted, and then put on a posture, although he didn't speak, but he also said that he wanted to fight.

Xingshu shook his head: "I'm here to talk about things, not to learn kung fu." ”

Duan Weiguo shook his arms, raised his fist and struck again, the torture was avoided, Duan Weiguo continued to press step by step, the fist speed was extremely fast, and he almost hit the chest and abdomen of the torture technique several times, but Duan Weiguo only attacked the road, and did not go down, so the torture technique would not suffer at all, and this suite was spacious, but it was a little narrower to learn kung fu.

The two fought for a while, and the torture technique raised his hand and said, "Okay, that's enough, you won." ”

"It doesn't matter if you win or lose." Duan Weiguo finally spoke, put away his fist and tidied up his suit, "Mr. Xing used the Miao family's Chiyou boxing, and I used Fujian Shaolin cannon boxing, which has a part of the Buddha boxing in Cai Li Fo, in fact, I lost, because I violated the rules of the competition." ”

Xingshu shook his head: "No, because the kung fu used by each was not explained at the beginning." ”

The torture technique felt fresh, because this was the first time he had seen someone use Cai Li Fo, especially in the north, it was almost impossible to find anyone who used Cai Li Fo, even in Hunan, it was difficult to see, but judging from Duan Weiguo's appearance, he was not like people in Guangdong and Fujian.

At this time, Sheng Zitai walked out of it with two glasses of wine, followed by Duan Wei's family, and said with a smile on his face: "Mr. Xing is really the same as the rumors, both civil and military, I can be regarded as a long-term insight today." ”

As soon as Xingshu was about to say something, Sheng Zitai stood up and bowed directly to him: "I'm sorry Mr. Xing, I made the decision without your consent before, because I was worried that Mr. Xing would not agree." ”

Seeing that he apologized, he was so sincere, he didn't want to say anything, but put the wine glass he had taken on the table: "Mr. Sheng, thank you, I don't drink." ”

Sheng Zitai smiled and said, "You call me Zitai, because if you call Mr. Sheng, you won't be able to tell whether you call me, my father or my brother." ”

Xingshu nodded and said, "It's better to call Mr. Zitai." ”

"That's so polite." Sheng Zitai's smile carried too many things, so that the torture technique could not be figured out.

Sheng Zitai invited Xingshu to sit down, and then said, "The second thing, I still have to apologize to Mr. Xing. ”

"What's the matter?" Torture asked immediately.

Sheng Zitai said: "Before we came, Heyumen had a plan to frame the Jade Casting Society, and sent a batch of goods by courier, and at the same time bribed one of your store managers, but Mr. Xing must have also known that this plan was aborted and failed. ”

When Sheng Zitai said these words with a smile, although the torture technique was calm on the surface, he was shocked in his heart, he couldn't figure out what tricks Sheng Zitai wanted to play in front of him? According to his own speculation, it was obviously his plan, why did he say it? No matter, let's get to the bottom first.

Xingshu immediately said: "Since the matter is over, it doesn't matter, but the planned miscarriage has caused Mr. Zitai to lose a lot, right?" Although I haven't seen those fakes, with the strength of your family, they must all be high-imitation jade, and the cost is a lot, not to mention the manual fee. ”

"Indeed, there are some synthetic jade in this batch of fakes, which are made of damaged ancient jade, and the total cost is hundreds of thousands, but that's a small amount of money." Sheng Zitai still smiled, "Hundreds of thousands of dollars can be regarded as a lesson, let me know that there are people outside the world, and there are heavens outside the sky." ”

Xingshu smiled: "What does Mr. Zitai mean that you have to beware of the people inside the Heyumen in the future?" Beware of someone who will betray themselves at a critical moment? ”

The torture technique took the opportunity to get to the bottom of it, simply clarified the matter, and at the same time took the opportunity to deepen the contradiction between him and Sheng Yutang to see if it could ignite the fuse.

Sheng Zitai smiled and said, "Mr. Xing, do you think I'm shameless?" ”

The torturer was silent, just laughing.

Sheng Zitai said again: "Shameless people can usually do big things. ”

"As soon as Mr. Zitai said this, I finally found the reason why I have not been successful. ”

Sheng Zitai pointed at the torture technique and said: "Mr. Xing really has a good eloquence, secretly elevating himself and belittling me. ”

"Mr. Zitai took the lead, I just cooperated." Xingshu smiled, "Let's get down to business, my people and I are ready, and we will leave for Changsha tomorrow night." ”

Sheng Zitai didn't say anything about the departure, but said: "I admit that this plan was come up with me, Mr. Xing, I really want to sit in the position of the door master, so I thought of such a bad move, and I almost played to death in the end, this matter has nothing to do with my father, he doesn't know, if he knows, he will definitely kill me, and please Mr. Xing don't mention this matter in front of my father." ”

Damn, this kid is such a thief! Torture sighed in his heart, Sheng Zitai admitted it like this, took all the responsibility on himself, and saw Sheng Feng in the future, if he said it in person, Sheng Feng would not be able to get off the stage, and there may be some accidents, of course, it is impossible for the criminal technique to preface Sheng Feng This matter, Sheng Zitai is just a precaution now, plus Master Zheng Cangqiong has described Sheng Feng's personality, and Xingshu also understands that Sheng Zitai is reminding himself on the side that when facing his father, don't do anything "out of line".

Xingshu nodded and said bluntly: "Thank you, Mr. Zitai, for the reminder." ”

Sheng Zitai smiled, knowing that the criminal technique understood what he meant, and nodded: "It seems that Mr. Xing and I are also very good-hearted, I have a hunch that our cooperation will be very pleasant this time, however, I have to remind Mr. Xing, this time to find the Jiacuo Palace, in addition to me and your people, there are also my eldest brother Sheng Yutang's people, as well as the Xu brothers...... Who are the Xu brothers, I don't need to introduce more to Mr. Xing, right? ”

The torture technique did not lead the topic to the Xu brothers, but just asked: "It seems that you are bound to win this time, there are so many people, it is no problem to turn Xiangxi over." ”

Sheng Zitai shook his head: "Not necessarily, my eldest brother is a ruthless character, I am very afraid of him, and he has two helpers by his side, one is called Yuan Zhenba, and the other is called Mu Tianjian." Saying that, Sheng Zitai glanced at Duan Wei's family, "This is my personal bodyguard Duan Weijia, there is a civil intelligence organization, Mr. Assassination should know, right?" He is the person of the Dead Ear, although the Dead Ear no longer exists, but the people of the Dead Ear, the skills and ability to collect relevant information are still there. ”

Of course, the torture art knows what kind of organization the Styx is, that is the most powerful intelligence organization in China, and it is said that there is nothing in the world that they don't know, as long as you give enough money or complete their conditions, you can tell you anything you want to know

(Note: For the relevant introduction of the Underworld organization, please refer to "The Man Who Opened the Coffin at Midnight" [publication name: "Secret News of Western Sichuan"] here will not repeat the detailed introduction, so as not to be suspected of making up the number of words.) )

Duan Weijia stepped forward and said: "Yuan Zhenba, on the surface, is a rock gangster, but in fact he is a cargo chaser, in the early years around the Beijing Liuli Factory, and some private collectors have a very good personal relationship, eyesight is very good, over the years rarely reveal his true identity to others, but there is no information that can point to which cargo chaser he studied from. Another one named Mu Tianjian is a Chinese-Burmese mixed-race child, in the early years he was a soldier of the Myanmar ** armed forces, he fought with a gun when he was very young, and had strong combat experience, Sheng Yutang was kind to him, he was desperate for Sheng Yutang in order to repay his kindness, Mu Tianjian is most worth mentioning that he once disguised himself into the Burmese government-controlled area to collect intelligence, and was framed by a renegade of the joints, and after doing 5 Burmese policemen with his bare hands, he survived safely under the blockade of the area for a month alone, and he is a very tricky person. ”

Xingshu said with a smile: "Mu Tianjian is easy to deal with, call the police, stay illegally, and be sent back to Myanmar directly." ”

Sheng Zitai shook his head: "He already has Chinese nationality, and my eldest brother helped him think of a way, and he has nothing to do with the Myanmar ** armed forces now, so calling the police will not work." ”

Torture shrugged: "Then one step at a time." ”

Sheng Zitai pointed to Duan Wei's family and said, "In addition to his identity as a former disciple of the Underworld, he is also a boxer, and he uses the Li family fist in Cai Li Fo. ”

Duan Weijia saluted with his fists in the torture technique, the torture technique got up and saluted back, Sheng Zitai also got up and pointed at Duan Weiguo and said: "This is Duan Weiguo, you already know the source of his boxing skills...... Mr. Xing, we can see each other frankly today, and in the final analysis, I hope Mr. Xing can help me. ”

"Of course, helping you is also helping myself and my peers in the entire three eastern provinces." Torture nodded, "Although I was forced. ”

"I'm also forced, because I can't find the Jiacuo Palace, so I can't be the master, and if I can't be the master, I'll die, and my eldest brother will definitely kill me." Sheng Zitai said seriously, "I can promise you now, if I become the master of the gate, in the future, the well water of the Heyumen and Zhuyuhui will not interfere with the river water, and the Heyumen will definitely not covet the market outside the gate again." ”

Xingshu nodded: "Okay, when you become a certificate, write a piece of paper, just say it with your mouth, it's useless, because the certificate may be useless." ”

Sheng Zitai smiled and said, "Okay, you help me, I'll help you, a word is a certainty." ”

"See you in Changsha." Torturer smiled and turned to leave.

After Duan Weiguo sent the torture technique downstairs, Sheng Zitai sat down again and asked, "Wei family, what do you think of the torture technique?" ”

"It's not unreasonable that Zhuyu will choose him to support the scene." Duan Weijia said calmly, turning around and drinking the glass of wine, "And what I'm most afraid of is people who don't drink." ”

Sheng Zitai raised his eyes and looked at him: "Why?" ”

"This shows that his living environment is very narrow, he has no friends since he was a child, and he is so smart and his thinking is so accurate, isn't it terrible?" Duan Weijia turned his head to look at the door, "But usually this kind of person doesn't live long." ”

Sheng Zitai got up: "Don't, no matter what, he has to live to help me sit in the position of the master." ”

Duan Weijia nodded: "Brother Sheng, don't worry, without him, I will also assist you to sit on that chair!" ”

"Wei family, it's not that I don't believe in you, and it's not that I don't believe in my strength." Sheng Zitai walked to the window, looked out, and sighed, "I don't believe my dad." ”

Duan Weijia followed behind and said: "Without the change of Xuanwu Gate, Li Shimin would not be able to be the emperor." ”

"I never wanted to be Li Shimin, if I want to do it, I will be Zhao Kuangyin." Sheng Zitai turned his head and smiled, "Being pressed to the dragon chair by his subordinates and wearing a yellow robe is better than forcing the palace to kill his brother, right?" ”

Duan Weijia just said: "Brother Sheng, if I say something that I don't like, don't be angry when you hear it." ”

Sheng Zitai nodded: "I have something to say." ”

Duan Weijia stepped forward and looked sideways at Sheng Zitai: "This time I go to Xiangxi, you and Sheng Yutang can only live one of the two, this is providential, doomed." ”

Sheng Zitai said "um" and said with a wry smile: "You are wrong, this is not the will of heaven, it is my father's order, it is my father's meaning." ”

Duan Weijia didn't know what to say, and he didn't say anything.

Sheng Zitai took a deep breath and spit it out: "You said that I did something evil in my last life, and I was born in the Sheng family in this life!" ”
