Chapter 133: The Death of the Predecessor
Qin Shuai's very inflammatory words did not make the catchers present have too much resonance, except for Du Guangzhong and a few other henchmen's subordinates who were more active, the rest of the catchers were not too interested.
Those who can be on an errand in the Red Devil Domain Torture Hall are all people who have seen the world, and they are not so easy to be instigated, in other words, they are also very realistic. Those who have the ability to study and climb up, and those who are not able to see only the immediate benefits.
Right now, Qin Shuai has just taken office, and they haven't seen any benefits, and it is obviously impossible for them to return to their hearts based on these words alone.
Of course, Qin Shuai didn't care, he just continued: "There is one more thing I want to inform you, Wu Siping and his subordinates were killed by this devil when they were chasing the demon murderer 'Yinshan Old Demon' Dugu Fang, who was wanted in my domain, and his subordinates were also slaughtered by this devil, and they died in the line of duty, and I have already asked them to be buried properly."
My Red Demon Domain Torture Hall has also worked hard to protect the safety of one party in the domain over the years, but my life is my own, and everyone should be more careful when performing tasks in the future. ”
As soon as these words came out, the faces of everyone present changed slightly, and some smart people seemed to have already thought about what was going on. I heard that the old demon of Yin Mountain, 'Dugu Fang', is a master who has stepped into the realm of the Demon Venerable Realm, and he is indeed capable of slaughtering Wu Siping and others. But the problem is that Wu Siping doesn't look like the kind of person who will fight for his life in order to capture this kind of demonic murderer, and besides, they don't seem to have heard that Wu Siping went out with someone during this time.
When you think about it, it's obvious what the reason for this is.
Everyone's hearts were cold, let's not talk about the ability of this newcomer, but this attack is ruthless enough.
"Okay, let's go here first, let's all disperse, continue to patrol, Wu Siping's territory is in charge of Du Guangzhong, Liu Chengli and Qin Fang. ”
Hearing these words, these catchers said loudly: "Yes!
This time, their momentum was much higher than before.
Wu Siping's subordinates have vacated so many places, so naturally they will continue to be in charge, so that the power under their hands is also greater than before, and they can only be motivated when they see the benefits, right?
After everyone else dispersed, Qin Shuai directly called Du Guangzhong and the others to the study.
After letting the three of them sit down, Qin Shuai asked, "It seems that the morale of these fast catchers at the entrance of the Jianzhou Patrol Envoy is not very high?"
Liu Chengli smiled bitterly and said: "My lord, we have a total of six patrol envoys in the western part of the domain, but our Jianzhou patrol envoy Tangkou is the weakest one, and the income is also the lowest one, of course the people under him have no morale." ”
Qin Shuai raised his eyebrows and said, "Is it because of the previous generation of inspectors?"
Liu Chengli nodded and said: "Almost, there are two main reasons, one is that the area of my Jianzhou City is not too large, and the other strong inspectors are even in charge of two towns." In addition, the previous generation of inspectors made Lord Fang a little too upright, except for that little bit of money in his hands, the others couldn't even see a little bit of oil and water, but he always let his brothers go out to carry out tasks and capture those murderers and thieves who were not easy to mess with. Although the duty of my Red Demon Domain Torture Hall is originally like this, but at least I have to do what I can, right? Every time I make a move, I lose a lot, and in the end, even if I succeed in catching someone, the rewards sent from above are pitiful. Lord Fang is not greedy, all the rewards sent down are handed over to these brothers under him, but that little thing is not enough for a few hundred people. ”
Liu Chengli's tone was full of resentment, blocking people's money like killing their parents, although Fang Zhengyuan, the previous generation of inspectors, was their boss, but it also made the roots of their hatred itch.
Seeing that the other inspectors were eating meat, but they couldn't even drink the soup, of course they weren't happy.
Qin Shuai quite agrees with Liu Chengli's words, people's hearts are different, you want to be a saint, but you don't consider the interests of your subordinates, and if you want them to be saints together, you will naturally not win the hearts of the people.
In the past, when Chu Yangge was in charge of the Red Demon Domain Torture Hall, he relied on his own personality charm, and he took the lead in everything, and the rest were willing to follow. And Guan Siyu led the Red Devil Domain Torture Hall by power, even though Guan Siyu was selfless and ruthless, and even gave very little money to these people in the Red Devil Domain Torture Hall, but it was he who evolved the Red Devil Domain Torture Hall, which could only survive in the cracks, into a military organization that is now recognized by the three major empires. And Guan Siyu is not greedy for power, the four major criminal officers under him, as well as many patrol envoys, as well as those leaders and secret agents of the Criminal Division, each of them can control the power is extremely amazing, so they are naturally willing to be loyal to Guan Siyu.
And Qin Shuai, the predecessor Fang Zhengyuan, his personal charm is naturally not as good as Chu Yange, and his ability is not as good as Guan Siyu, but the result is that he wants to learn from these two masterpieces in the world, even if he is worthy of himself, but it also makes his subordinates complain.
At this time, Qin Fang suddenly said: "At present, there is actually another reason for the low morale of our Jianzhou Patrol Envoy Tangkou, that is, among these small cities around this Jianzhou Mansion, the prestige of our Patrol Envoy Tangkou is actually not much left, and those local martial arts forces don't take us very seriously." The reason for this was also that Lord Fang, he himself had to look for death, but now he was okay and played himself to death. ”
Du Guangzhong frowned and said: "Old Qin, don't talk nonsense, how Lord Fang died, it was personally sent down by the Executioner to investigate, the matter has already been determined, it was just an accident." ”
Qin Shuai suddenly became interested at this time, and he said directly to Qin Fang: "Tell me, it doesn't matter, they are all their own people here, is there anything hidden about the death of Fang Zhengyuan, the previous generation of inspectors?"
It stands to reason that the Red Devil Domain Torture Hall is the master of the entire Red Devil Domain, although the Red Devil Domain is mixed with dragons and snakes, and the martial arts are fierce, but even if you are rampant, it will be under the jurisdiction of the Red Devil Domain Torture Hall, but now Qin Fang said that he Jianzhou Patrol Hall has no power in the entire Jianzhou Mansion, which is also very unusual. And there is no doubt about the death of the previous inspector Fang Zhengyuan, he was killed by the other party when he was chasing down a murderer in the Demon Venerable realm, 'Blood Sky Sword' Han Rang.
Of course, this is definitely not like Qin Shuai killing Wu Siping, just secretly giving him a reasonable way to die, Fang Zhengyuan made a move in a small city, and was killed by the other party in front of hundreds of Jianghu people, there is nothing to doubt, but now listening to Qin Fang say this, is there an inside story?
Qin Fang coughed and said, "Lord Qin, since I have already taken refuge in you, it is not interesting to hide these things from you. Fang Zhengyuan, the last generation of inspectors, was indeed killed in front of everyone, and there is nothing strange in the eyes of outsiders, but after all, we have all followed Fang Zhengyuan for several years, and we know his strength relatively well. Lord Fang's strength can definitely be ranked in the forefront of the same price, and the 'Blood Sky Sword' Han Rang said something unpleasant, just a gutless rat, he only dared to rob and kill some small merchants who came and went to the Red Demon Domain on weekdays, and he didn't dare to move the bigger ones. The reason why he was able to become famous was because of the Blood Sky Sword in his hand, which had the effect of transforming blood qi, and even enough blood qi could make the Blood Sky Sword advance. In that battle, we saw with our own eyes, at the beginning, Lord Fang suppressed the other party in a few moves, but later, Lord Fang's strength suddenly fell to the extreme, even less than the realm of the Demon King, and was finally killed by Han Rang with a sword. ”
Qin Shuai touched his chin and said: "If that's the case, it's not a suspicious point, there are all kinds of strange things on the rivers and lakes, maybe this Han Rang used some means to sneak attack Fang Zhengyuan, and then he was killed." ”
Qin Fang shook his head and said: "This matter has been suspicious from the beginning, Han Rang is as timid as a mouse, before Lord Fang pursued him, he happened to rob and kill a group of merchants outside a small city within the scope of Jianzhou Mansion, according to his character, after committing a case, he must immediately flee, but this time he took the initiative to show his head in front of us." And at that time, when Han Rang showed his head, we happened to be waiting for the banquet at home, and after we broke up unhappily, Han Rang deliberately appeared in front of us as if he had received the news in advance, attracting Lord Fang to attack him, and was finally killed, and the suspicion is here. ”
"Wait, what's the origin of this Hou family, why is it related to Fang Zhengyuan again?" Qin Shuai frowned and asked.
Qin Fang said: "The Hou family is one of the great forces in Jianzhou City, and its history is long, even similar to when the Red Demon Domain Torture Hall was established. Your Excellency, you also know that the Red Demon Domain is the center of trade between the three kingdoms, and there are countless caravans coming and going here, but among them are some contraband that are expressly forbidden to trade to prevent them from flowing into the other country. It's just that although there is an explicit prohibition from the torture hall, there are still some people who refuse to change their ways, the most serious of which is some local martial arts forces in the Red Demon Domain, such as buying some contraband from the Izumo Empire, and then selling them to the Malan Empire or the Gali Empire, in order to make a profit, simply put, smuggling. For this kind of behavior, once discovered, the torture hall must be strictly investigated, and at the beginning, Lord Fang suspected that the Hou family was secretly smuggling these prohibited items, so he scolded the family, but the Hou family refused to admit it, and we didn't find anything. When Lord Fang came to the Hou family for the second time, the people of the Hou family were ready to bribe Lord Fang, but they were rejected by Lord Fang, and they turned their faces with the people of the Hou family, saying that they would take them back to the torture hall for trial, etc., and they broke up on the spot. Later, Lord Qin, you also know, Lord Fang was killed, and the investigation of Houjia's smuggling was also unresolved, and my Jianzhou Inspector Tangkou was greatly reduced in the Jianzhou Mansion's martial arts, making people think that my Jianzhou Patrol Envoy Tangkou was only thundering loudly and raining little. ”
