Chapter 5: The Art of the Hidden Dragon

Sun San, who used to be a pirate, can become the emperor of the island, become a handsome, and survive to this day, not only because he relies on the natural danger of the sea, but also because he once saved an unknown land minister many years ago.

In order to repay Sun San, the rescued earth minister made a table of fasting banquets with his own hands, and also taught Sun San the "Hidden Dragon Technique".

What is the Hidden Dragon Technique?

To put it bluntly, it's two words - low-key.

low-key and won't let you become a thorn in the side of others; Being low-key can give you more time and space to accumulate strength.

But how easy is it to keep a low profile in troubled times? Therefore, we must learn to meet the source left and right, restrain each other, and use unscrupulous means.

On that day, Sun Sanmao was stunned by the teachings of the nameless earth minister, and he immediately followed the instructions of the earth minister, spent a lot of money, hired a large number of craftsmen, consolidated the anti-Qing fortress on the snake heart island, turned it into a black prison that belonged to him, and at the same time began to prepare his own business.

Can prisons also do business?

Of course, although it is a troubled time, there are still some people who cannot be killed, and can only find a place where even if someone can find it, they cannot be easily rescued and imprisoned.

Therefore, Sun San's prison has become the best choice for many individuals and organizations.

At the same time, Sun San became no longer as arrogant as before, and became like a gentle pug.

In just two years, more than 300 prisoners from all over the country, including foreigners, were imprisoned in the prison.

While Sun San recorded these prisoners, he also tried his best to probe their past, as well as the secrets hidden in them, and the past of these people and their secrets are Sun San's killer weapon that can restrain other opponents in this troubled world.

Of course, Sun San is not stupid, he knows that if he doesn't come up with something to put under the noses of others, those big men who send prisoners to prison will kill him sooner or later.

Therefore, before he established the prison, he married several aunts with great fanfare, and at the same time quietly married two, and these aunts and wives also gave birth to children. However, he did not take these aunts and wives to Snake Heart Island, but hid them in the mansions he bought in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and at the same time deliberately sold the news of the hiding place to other marshals through special channels.

Immediately afterwards, those handsomes, as Sun San expected, sent people to monitor Sun San's aunts and children. However, they didn't know that these were all weaknesses that Sun San deliberately put under their noses, and they were weaknesses that he created.

In fact, at the critical moment, the life and death of these people have nothing to do with him, which is the most important point in the rules of survival that the local minister taught him - unscrupulous means.

In addition, the geographer also unfolded the chart and drew a circle somewhere, and Sun San took people out to sea in a hesitation, and found a shipwreck there, and the things salvaged from the shipwreck were enough for him to recruit troops and expand his equipment.

Therefore, he doesn't need to think about the threat to Sun San from the outside world for the time being, what he really needs is a military adviser who can assist him, that is, the earth minister.

However, the nameless minister refused Sun San's invitation, and he unceremoniously told Sun San: "Your temple is too small to accommodate my Buddha." ”

Sun San was not angry, he understood that the unpleasant words were indeed the honest words of the nameless and earthly face.

Therefore, Sun San has been looking for it and has been waiting.

Therefore, Tie Peiwen, who is coming to the door in person now, is indeed the best choice.

Sun San finally inserted the gun back into the holster, got up and arched his hand: "As long as Mr. Tie is willing to stay, let alone looking for "Jinling Jane", even if it is heaven and earth, I will go!" ”

Tie Peiwen also got up and saluted back: "Dashuai, I'm afraid we really have to go to heaven and earth." ”

When Sun San recalled this, he raised his eyes to look at Tie Peiwen, who looked like a weak scholar in front of him, since this kid came to him, Snake Heart Island has been much stronger than before in all aspects, and the last time several pirates jointly attacked, the crisis was easily resolved under the command of Tie Peiwen.

"Iron Counselor, are you really sure that the master is here?" Sun San frowned and asked.

Tie Peiwen nodded: "As long as Wei Qiming is here, Tongye must be a step away from him." ”

Sun San asked again: "But I have all recorded the prisoners here, and I have investigated their past, and I have not found anything abnormal?" ”

Tie Peiwen said again: "Dashuai, do you remember when Wei Qiming was imprisoned?" ”

Sun San thought about it, and was about to ask someone to bring the file, but Tie Peiwen stopped: "No need to check, I have already checked, no one knows when Wei Qiming came, in the file of the prison, the cell where he lived, the prisoner who was once held was called Liang Shiqiu." ”

Sun San was puzzled: "Liang Shiqiu? ”

Tie Peiwen asked: "Dashuai, do you still have an impression of this person?" ”

Sun San recalled carefully: "It seems to be a little impression, this Liang Shiqiu should be a revolutionary party in the south, right?" ”

Tie Peiwen nodded: "That's right, it is recorded in the archives that he is indeed a revolutionary party from Guangzhou, and he was sent after being caught by Lu Dashuai's people, this person is in an important position in the south, he can't be killed, but he can't be released, and it is clearly written in the file, he must be taken care of and save his life." ”

Sun San leaned on the back of the chair and closed his eyes and said: "The surname Lu is doing this, just to leave a way back for himself, and now that Wu Peifu and Zhang Zuolin are fighting, it is said that the revolutionary party in the south will also wait for the opportunity to move." The surname Lu used to be a businessman, very good at trading, he knew that if Liang Shiqiu was released at that time, he would offend Wu Peifu, and if he killed Liang Shiqiu, he would offend the Southern Revolutionary Party. ”

Tie Peiwen also closed his eyes: "Dashuai, these are not important, the important thing is that why did Liang Shiqiu suddenly become Wei Qiming?" ”

Sun San opened his eyes and looked at Tie Peiwen, his eyes full of doubts.

Tie Peiwen still closed his eyes: "There is no record of Wei Qiming in the archives of the prison, Liang Shiqiu lives in the Bingshi prison cell in the archives, which is the cell where Wei Qiming is now held, when did Liang Shiqiu become Wei Qiming?" No one knew, and neither did the jailers who guarded it. ”

Sun San frowned: "When did you notice this?" ”

Tie Peiwen opened his eyes and said: "It was only after I received the news that Wei Qiming was in prison that I began to shift the focus of looking for Tongye to looking for Wei Qiming, but I didn't expect that when I asked who Wei Qiming was, Wei Qiming actually stood up and took the initiative to admit it." ”

Sun San looked at Tie Peiwen's eyes full of surprise and incomprehension, and then smiled.

Sun San smiled: "I'm a little confused. ”

Tie Peiwen said expressionlessly: "Dashuai, I was also confused, I was very surprised, so I turned around and went to check the files of the prison, but there was no information about Wei Qiming in the files, and the person detained in the cell in the file was called Liang Shiqiu, and it was clearly written that this cell had not been replaced by others, it stands to reason that Liang Shiqiu should still be locked up there, but the fact is that it is Wei Qiming who lives inside, why?" ”

Sun San felt a chill from Tie Peiwen's tone, he shivered, and said with a reluctant smile: "Tie Staff, don't you scare me?" How could such a thing be? ”

Tie Peiwen nodded slowly: "Yes, how could this happen?" ”

Sun San didn't speak, his face was a little ugly.

"What's even more terrifying is that most of the prisoners we sent to the cells are dead." Tie Peiwen unfolded his fan and looked at it blankly, "Among the few people who survived, except for Zhang Dingfeng, they all became a little crazy, and they all agreed that Wei Qiming was not a human, a ghost, and a monster. ”

At this time, the shouts of those criminals who had gone crazy sounded in Tie Peiwen's ears: "He's not a human, he's a ghost, he's a ghost, he uses spells to make me unable to move, he can still fly, he can still be invisible, he's definitely not a human!" ”

Tie Peiwen put away the fan and shook his head slowly: "Some of them say that Wei Qiming can fly, and some people say that Wei Qiming will be invisible, will escape, will turn into black mist, and will get into the wall......"

Tie Peiwen stood up as he spoke, took a few steps forward, turned to look at Sun San again, and asked, "Dashuai, do you think what they said is true?" Wei Qiming is not human? Or does Wei Qiming know spells? ”

At this time, Sun San's face was very ugly, he didn't answer Tie Peiwen's question, just shook his head slightly.

Tie Peiwen paced back and forth, slow and heavy: "I don't believe that there are spells, and I don't believe that Wei Qiming is not a person, but to find out about this matter, we must first understand how Liang Shiqiu became Wei Qiming." ”

Sun San looked at Tie Peiwen and nodded: "Yes, we have to find out, no matter what, we have to find Liang Shiqiu, if we can't find Liang Shiqiu, I can't explain to Lu Dashuai." ”

Tie Peiwen stood in front of Sun San and said word for word: "Don't worry, Dashuai, I will definitely find out." ”

On the cliff, after Tang Anshu and the three of them observed the east and north outposts, Tang Anshu and Liu Luoqu both unanimously chose the north outpost.

"Why did you choose the outpost to the north?" Wu Sihe didn't understand.

Tang Anshu did not answer this question, but poked his head out of the trench and quietly observed.

At this time, the soldiers in the north post were drinking, they couldn't figure out the environment in the outpost, and the specific number of people, and their primary target was the officers, so they could only wait quietly.

"Because tonight's wind is blowing from east to south." Liu Luoqu took out the kettle, drenched the white cloth wrapped in his hand, and tied the white cloth with the hilt of the sword, so that the short sword was not easy to get rid of when fighting.

Wu Sihe glanced at Tang Anshu, still couldn't understand, and asked again: "What do you mean?" ”

Liu Luoqu said with a smile: "Senior Brother Wu, you save people, I kill, this is the difference between us." ”

Wu Sihe also smiled: "What is the sale, hurry up." ”

"Under such conditions, there will definitely be blood when killing, and the smell of blood is very strong, and these soldiers who have lived on the island for a long time can easily distinguish whether it is the smell of the sea breeze or the smell of blood." Liu Luoqu said as he put the dagger back into its sheath, "So, if we do it in the east, people will die, blood will flow, the wind will blow, and the sharpshooters on the observation tower in the middle will be able to smell it, so we can only choose the nearest northern outpost to us." ”

After listening to this, Wu Sihe smiled: "Sure enough, it's professional, and the calculation is really accurate." ”

Liu Luoqu looked at Tang Anshu, who was sentry: "Actually, it was Anshu who first took this into account ......"

Liu Luoqu didn't finish his words, in fact, he still wanted to say, "If this kid finds an opportunity to do something earth-shattering, over time, he will definitely become a celebrity snatched by those handsomes."

Wu Sihe just said "um", and raised his eyes to look at Tang Anshu's back, although this back still looks a little thin now, it may soon become an impregnable city wall.
