Chapter 225: Ruthless
In the dark night, the gate of the Changfeng base was tightly closed.
Zhang Jiao simply sat cross-legged on the dirt street next to the city gate, sitting cross-legged on the ground, and meditated all night.
It's easy to say that it's easy to live in Zone Zero, but it's not easy to say it's not easy, and there are not many people sleeping on the streets, but there are many people.
So his actions did not attract anyone's attention.
The next morning, the sky was bright, and as soon as the city gate opened, the first batch slipped out of the Changfeng base.
I made sure I was heading towards Haiyuan Harbor.
Although it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, Zhang Jiaoyi does not ask about the situation clearly, and always feels that although Shennongjia is big, he has nowhere to go.
The second is that he was put on a stand by a mere mortal who was a fox and a fake tiger, and he was a little angry.
Therefore, after all, it was decided that the first priority was to find Liu Peng, the expatriate commissioner of the former gold mining industry, to settle accounts.
But when he got to the ground, he didn't act rashly.
Instead, I found a casual tailor's shop and bought a dark blue trouser gown that dock workers often wore to change into.
After that, I came to an inconspicuous coolie shop diagonally on the plank road of the wharf, and I asked for wine and vegetables while eating and drinking, and squatted for several hours, and finally saw Liu Pengju's figure.
And this Liu Pengju didn't know if he really had a clear conscience, or if he believed in the strength of the person who conspired with him to plot against Zhang Jiao, and he never thought that Zhang Jiao would get out of trouble in such a short period of time and seek revenge on himself.
was unguarded, and was secretly embellished behind by Zhang Jiao for most of the day, but he didn't notice anything unusual.
In the middle of the night, I returned home drunk after spending a lot of wine.
The wife and the child were not brought with them.
Liu Pengju's residence in Haiyuan Port is not large, only one bedroom and one living room, and the decoration is not luxurious, so it can only be barely regarded as exquisite.
After entering the door, he staggered into the bathroom, sat on the toilet and cheered happily, while leaning over to call the faucet of the bathtub.
After emptying his stomach, he took off his clothes and lay down directly in the bathtub.
Soaking in the warm bath water, I couldn't help but moan comfortably, closed my eyes and hummed a song.
Just when he seemed to be asleep, an unquiet voice suddenly broke into Liu Pengju's ears, "Commissioner Liu is so comfortable."
took the money from selling me so chicly, and didn't even have the slightest scruples.
It seems that I really treat Zhang Lingjiao as a soft persimmon pinched by random people. ”
Liu Pengju was full of excitement, opened his eyes, saw Zhang Jiao's expressionless figure in the misty steam, and blurted out: "You, how did you escape!"
Hearing that this fool didn't admit himself, Zhang Jiao was even more annoyed in his heart, and he was deeply ashamed that he was deceived by such a fool who had no city.
Under the turn of his mind, the vague majestic body of the Heavenly Plague Star Officer appeared behind him, stepped forward to cover Liu Pengju's mouth with one hand, so that he could not make a sound, and the other hand began to slowly break the joints of the five fingers of Liu Pengju's right hand.
As the saying goes, ten fingers are connected to the heart.
With the crisp sound of 'pop pap...', although Liu Peng raised his mouth and couldn't make a sound, his body was desperately twisted and struggling like a fish out of water, and his eyes bulged out like a dying fish.
"There are more than 200 bones in the human body, and there are more joints," Zhang Jiao saw this, a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said slowly: "If you want to play, we can play slowly."
If you don't want to play, wait until I'm done breaking the bone in your right palm, and then talk to me honestly. ”
Liu Pengju desperately wanted to nod, but in front of the great power of the Heavenly Plague Star Official, his head couldn't move.
It wasn't until the bone of his right palm was broken that the Heavenly Plague Star Officer let go of his hand and twitched: "Around, spare your life, Master Zhang."
If you go around my life, I will be honest and tell me whatever you want to ask.
You really can't blame me for this, I, I'm also forced. ”
"Who forced you?" asked Zhang Jiao, grimacing.
"Under the command of Dusin Gongzi, who controls this place, Guo Yunde, the captain of the Qilin under his command, Guo Yunde. Liu Pengju said tremblingly.
Jiang Chu's military administration inherited the ancient system.
Guozai, Zongbo, Situ, Sima, Sikou, and Sikong Liuqing, who enter the court are ministers, and when they go out of the army, they are generals.
The highest-ranking national ruler is the general, the second-highest status Zongbo is the middle general, and the remaining 4 secretaries are the generals of the eastern, southern, western and northern four directions, all of whom are in the main positions of the state.
The rest of the generals with the names of Dangkou, Jing'an, and Xichao, or the names of Rui beasts such as Bi Fang, Jin Wu, and Shanyi in front of them sound majestic, but in fact, they are all so-called miscellaneous generals.
It is considered a temporary addition to the rank for the convenience of unifying the army, and the weight is much worse.
However, the position of lieutenant below the rank of general is different.
The school captain named after the green dragon, the white tiger, the vermilion bird, and the Xuanwu four elephant beasts is particularly honored.
Because there are many monks and few porridges, often even the heirs of Liuqing have to compete before they can take office.
In comparison, the captain without a plus sign in front is much more ordinary.
But now Liu Pengju said such a nondescript official title as 'Qilin Captain', which surprised Zhang Jiao.
He frowned and said, "I know Jiang Chu's official system very well.
Only the miscellaneous general has never been a miscellaneous lieutenant, where did this unicorn lieutenant come from.
It can't be the private military position of the Dusin son, right?"
"How can it be a private setting," Liu Pengju seemed to be a loyal embracer of Du Xin, even if he was in danger, he still did not forget to defend him, and said in a hoarse voice: "Once Du Xin Gongzi succeeds to the throne, he will be Chu Hou."
Isn't it natural for the king of a country to have a government system? ”
"I think you're crazy," Zhang Jiao couldn't help but reprimand angrily when he heard this: "Don't say that Du Xin hasn't succeeded to the throne yet, even if he has become Chu Hou now."
It is also a great rebellion to want to change the ancestral rules and regulations in an old-fashioned state like Jiang Chu.
I don't know how many people have to be punished... Forget it, what to do with his nosy.
I just want to know why Dusin's Captain of the Kirin is arresting me?"
"I don't know. Liu Peng raised his head and shook it like a rattle and said: "A few days ago, a personal soldier under the command of Captain Guo of Qilin came to me with a letter.
Let me help, help hold you, I, I'll..."
"You are the expatriate commissioner of the former gold mining of the Nanyang multinational giant group company, and you dare to betray the company's collaborator because of the seal of an inexplicable Qilin captain!
Is it a brain plague?" Zhang Jiao couldn't help but say angrily when he heard this.
Liu Pengju said dryly: "Don't hide it from me, I, I was originally just a small businessman in Jiang Chu."
After the assassination of Jun Hou, chaos broke out in the country, affecting Shennongjia, and many Nanyang companies were frightened and withdrew.
However, there are also some powerful and risk-taking companies that have gone the opposite way, and have continued to send more people to absorb a large number of local forces, taking advantage of the chaos to expand their influence in Jiangchu Zero District.
Raw gold mining is one of them.
My cousin, on the other hand, went to Nanyang more than 30 years ago because of difficulties in making a living.
I don't know what shit luck I had, and I became a real power figure in the original gold mining.
He took advantage of this mess to promote me.
So, I really, really dare not disobey the will of the Captain of the Qilin. ”
