Chapter 19: Gang Gathering

I didn't stay in Chengfu for a few days, and the annual gathering of heroes came. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Gangs from seven counties gathered in Wanning.

For a time, the temples and Taoist temples in the mountains were full of people, and more than 1,000 people arrived one after another.

There are many people, and they are all from various gangs and factions, which inevitably leads to disputes and chaos.

Or there are those who drink and fight, or there are former officers and soldiers who do not like each other, or there are different gangs who are not convinced by each other...... Not to mention, it is both lively and inevitably eventful.

Listening to the report of his subordinates, Cheng Qingzhu sighed and said to Liu Xu: "There are a lot of such things every year, but they are all small fights, and they often stop in time and will not make a big deal about it." ”

Liu Xu shook his head and said: "Although this is just a small matter, it can be seen from it that there are still big differences between them, and if they really want to join forces, they still need a lot of effort." ”

Ah Jiu looked at the two of them and proposed, "Why don't we go on patrol and settle their disputes!" ”

"Well, that's a good idea, and it can also increase our prestige." Cheng Qingzhu agreed.

。。。。。。

After the last time the officer Shui Jian, who lost the grain and silver, surrendered to Liu Xu, he followed him back to the pirate city, and because the group of heroes was about to start, Liu Xu asked him to bring people to pretend to be robbers to participate in the conference.

However, after all, these people used to be officers and soldiers, and they did not talk to various gangs, so they were angry with them.

A group of subordinates have encouraged Shui Jian to become the leader of the alliance, making his gang angry.

Shui Jian knew that he was absolutely incapable of competing for the alliance leader, so he could only persuade the soldiers with kind words, and promised to recommend the alliance leader who could help him speak.

And Liu Xu and Ah Jiu took a group of thugs from the Qingzhu Gang to patrol in front of the gang's camps, and asked people to post notices to announce discipline.

This made a group of bosses applaud, and Liu Xu's reputation was initially known by this group of people.

On the first day, most of them were peaceful, and Liu Xu only solved some small contradictions.

The next day, before Liu Xu, Ah Jiu and the others came to the camp, they heard a group of people surrounding in front of them, making noise!

Liu Xu immediately stepped forward quickly and asked, "What's going on?" ”

A big man looked at Liu Xu and said, "Hong Shenghai, the elder of the Hongsha Gang, is dead, but I don't know who the murderer is!" ”

"Oh! Let me see. With that, Liu Xu picked up the crowd and walked in.

I saw a woman lying on a corpse crying and grieving.

Liu Xu frowned, and said loudly: "Hurry up and help her away, don't destroy the scene!" ”

Immediately a few people walked out of the crowd and pulled the woman away.

Liu Xu stepped forward to take a closer look at the corpse, it was drenched, it should have been fished out of the water, and there was a bloody wound on the back of the head, which was obviously hit by someone with a blunt object from behind, beaten to death, and then thrown into the water.

After a while, Liu Xu got up and looked at everyone and asked, "When was the body found?" ”

At this time, a big man came out and said, "I found it when I went down to the river to catch fish today, and it was just dawn at that time." ”

"Hmm." Liu Xu replied and asked again: "Who was Hong Shenghai with last night?" ”

But this time no one replied, and after waiting for a while, Liu Xu saw that no one had spoken, so he asked people to call the woman just now.

Liu Xu looked at her and asked, "Who are you?" Where was he last night? ”

The woman was still crying, and after a while, she relented and replied, "The concubine is his inner man, and he stayed in the room last night, and then when it was dark, Sun Zhongshou came to look for him, and he went out with him, and then he never came back, and then it is like this......"

When she had finished speaking, the woman began to sob.

Liu Xu had no choice but to ask someone to hold her aside, look around, and ask loudly, "Who is Sun Zhongshou?" ”

A thin young man walked out and looked at Liu Xu in response.

Ah Jiu was beside Liu Xu, looked at the obscene young man in front of him, and whispered to Liu Xu: "Liu Xu, you see that his eyes are rolling, I don't know what bad things he is thinking, and he was only with Hong Shenghai last night, he must be the murderer!" ”

Liu Xu looked at her, shook his head and said, "It's not clear yet, don't jump to conclusions." ”

After speaking, he looked at Sun Zhongshou and asked, "Where did you and Hong Shenghai go last night?" ”

Sun Zhongshou looked at Liu Xu and immediately shouted: "I said everything, the murderer is not me, I have said everything that should be said." ”

"Oh," Liu Xu looked at him and asked, "Then what did you say?" ”

Sun Zhongshou glanced at Liu Xu impatiently, and said: "After I went out with him last night, I talked about the gang, and then we separated, I came to look for him this morning, but found that he was not at home, so I went back, and the result is now." ”

"Hmm." Liu Xu lowered his head and pondered.

After a while, Liu Xu called the woman over again and asked her, "You tell me in detail about what happened from last night to now!" ”

Now that the woman was much better, she began to speak eloquently.

Suddenly, Liu Xu raised his hand to interrupt her, looked around, and said to the woman, "You are repeating what you just said." ”

The woman had no choice but to learn again, and said, "This morning, Sun Zhongshou came outside the room and shouted: Mrs. Hong, Mrs. Hong, where is Brother Hong?" ”

As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Xu laughed, which shocked everyone around, could it be that the murderer had been found.

Liu Xu looked at Sun Zhongshou and said meaningfully: "Is what she said right just now?" ”

Sun Zhongshou looked at everyone and said, "Yes, last night I made an appointment with Brother Hong to meet in the mountains and forests today, but I didn't see him come after waiting for a long time, so I came to Brother Hong's door to call him." ”

Liu Xu laughed out loud and said loudly to the people around him: "He, Sun Zhongshou, is the murderer, hurry up and arrest him!" ”

"Humph! Why do you say I'm a murderer? Sun Zhongshou immediately shouted.

And the people around him were also confused, and then asked, "Yes! Why is he said to be a murderer, and what is the evidence? ”

"That's right! What about the evidence? Sun Zhongshou looked at Liu Xu and asked loudly.

Liu Xu looked at him and said, "Don't you still admit it?" ”

"Humph! If you don't say anything about it today, I'm going to say that you've been framed, and I'll want you to look good then! Sun Zhongshou said with a face.

At this time, the woman also came to Liu Xu and said, "Shaoxia, I hope you must find out the murderer and avenge my husband!" ”

And some of the people around him pondered, some discussed with each other, and began to point at Liu Xu.

Liu Xu saw that the momentum was almost over, so he raised his hand to control the scene.

After a while, seeing that everyone stopped talking, Liu Xu walked to Sun Zhongshou with a smile.

Liu Xu looked at the people around him and said loudly: "Sun Zhongshou, you say what you said outside Hong Shenghai's house today!" ”

"Humph! Just say it, how do you prove that I am a murderer. Sun Zhongshou said loudly.
