Chapter 426: Muddy Waters
Zhang Chu knew that Wan Jiangliu's death could not be covered.
If you can't cover it, it will also expose the existence of the Blood Shadow Guard.
All he could do was weave countless rumors and spread them through the Blood Shadow Guard's news channels to confuse the public.
For example, the fire broke out.
For example, the heavenly fire came into the world.
Another example is that Shangyuan County is suspected of having a cultivator grandmaster......
He himself knew that these rumors were too brain-dead to stand up to scrutiny.
Not to mention the side, just to say that the more than 100 dagger guards who poured out to block the street as soon as possible after the incident are too far-fetched to explain it by coincidence, and they can't deceive people with IQ online.
But now, he has no other remedy, he can only hope that the three of them will become tigers and all of them will be able to play a little role.
When laying it out, he thought about this consequence.
But he didn't have a better choice.
There is a way to choose the lesser of two evils.
Between exposing gunpowder to kill Wan Jiangliu and letting go of the opportunity to wait, Zhang Chu chose the former.
I am also mentally prepared to bear the consequences.
Now it's just a dead horse as a live horse doctor.
......
Sure enough, within two days, the news of Wan Jiangliu's death spread out of the four southern counties of Xuanbei Prefecture, and spread to Xiliang Prefecture and Yanbei Prefecture.
It's not just the rivers and lakes this time.
Even the local governments were shaken!
Whether it is Dali or Beiban, it is the warriors who are in charge.
Lieutenant of Jiupin County.
Bapin County Zun.
Seven-product master book.
Lieutenant of Liupinjun.
Wupin County Shou.
Sipinzhou pastor.
Wan Jiangliu is a four-product hero.
In the rivers and lakes, he suppressed the rivers and lakes of a state, and he did not repeat the rivers and lakes, but the rivers and lakes were full of his legends!
In the court, he has the force to directly talk to the state and pastoral feudal officials, as long as he does not rebel, no one will take the Dali law to put on him!
Suddenly dead!
He also died in an unknown manner.
Even under what means he died, who could do it.
Nobody knows.
How can those who are in the seventh, sixth, fifth, and fourth grades have peace of mind?
Today it can be Wanjiangliu.
Tomorrow, of course, it can be a county guard!
Of course, it can also be a state pastor!
The power in their hands does not bring them much protection other than their own force.
All of a sudden, countless spies entered Uehara County.
There is a palace in the north of the town.
There are also Xuanbei Prefecture and four county offices.
There are various rivers and lakes in the four southern counties.
There are also masters of the rivers and lakes who crossed the border from Yanbei Prefecture and Xiliang Prefecture.
Of course, the spies who are most active among them must be the members of the Taiping Society.
On the evening of the second day, when the news of Wan Jiangliu's death spread.
The leader of the Taiping Society, "Zhang Chu", appeared in Fengwolf County, and "secretly" returned to Taiping Town surrounded by a large team.
Subsequently, Taiping Town stopped all commercial activities, refused to accept foreign guests, and a large number of Honghuatang gangs gathered from various districts and counties to gather the chief rudder of Taiping Town, and surrounded Taiping Town, which was a big fart.
In addition, countless people with knives "secretly" went to Uehara County to investigate what happened before the night of the eighth day of November.
I have to say that letting the mule, a person who is really engaged in intelligence work, perform intelligence work, is simply an actor-level, and those who know the goods say that it is true, if it is not for the "flaw", he will almost deceive himself.
But even if the mules performed so hard, the Taiping Society was still inevitably suspected.
After all, before the incident, the Heavenly Sword Gate and the Taiping Society were still tense, looking like they would go to war at any time, and now that Wan Jiangliu died, the Taiping Society was of course the first suspect.
The point is that half a month before the incident, Zhang Chu also slaughtered two fifth-grade and three sixth-grade Tiandaomen in Xuanling County, as well as a large group of third-grade miscellaneous fish...... Judging from this point alone, Zhang Chu seems to be able to wrestle with Wan Jiangliu.
Soon, however, most of those who had such skepticism gave up on the investigation.
Because before the incident, it was not a secret that the Taiping Society helped Zhu Chu to escape back and forth between Beiyin County and Fengwolf County by the disciples of the Heavenly Sword Gate...... This is not ridiculous, everyone knows that Zhang Chu is not avoiding the few people who dropped out of the Heavenly Dao Sect behind him, but Wan Jiangliu, the head of the Heavenly Dao Sect.
A double ten has five, and even the beard has not yet been saved, and the first person in the Xuanbei rivers and lakes has to be forced to retreat as a conservative trick, which is not to be ridiculed!
Zhang Chu was chased by the people of the Heavenly Sword Gate and fled from east to west, which illustrated two points.
The first point is that Zhang Chu has never set foot in Shangyuan County.
The second point is that Zhang Chu did not have the courage to face Wan Jiangliu.
This is alibi evidence that Zhang Chu laid in ambush early.
......
Before the news of Wan Jiangliu's death in the sea of fire completely spread, Zhang Chu had already carried a large number of treasures copied from the Heavenly Sword Gate and returned to Beiyin County through Xuanling County.
By the time all the forces had taken the wrong medicine, he had already secretly returned to Taiping Town by the time he frantically sent spies to Shangyuan County to investigate what had happened.
He knew that the stand-in could only hide from some unsightly spies.
can't hide the spying of the bright light.
On the second day after he returned to Taiping Town, Wu Zi'an, the county governor of Taibaifu, went to Wuqu County to check the county affairs, and passed through Taiping Town to enter the town to rest for one night.
That's where it gets interesting.
Zhang Chu knew this Lord Wu.
The administrative division of Fang Town, Taiping Town, and the position of the Eight Rank Fang Town Economic Strategy on his body are all from this Lord Wu and him.
Speaking of which, the Taiping Society can have today's grand occasion, and it is indeed due to the achievements of this Lord Wu in the past.
But the problem is that since the establishment of Taiping Town, no official with a higher official rank than Zhang Chu has come to inspect it...... Ji Ba doesn't count.
At first, they were too lazy to come to this backwoods.
Later, I didn't want to come, I didn't dare to come, and the whole Taiping would seem to be in the same area.
This time it came, but the timing was so sensitive.
What's even more interesting.
Although the official rank of this Lord Wu is higher than Zhang Chu, it is really more real, but he can't control Zhang Chu's head.
The county is the head of the civil officials of a county.
And Zhang Chu has the two positions of guerrilla general and economic envoy, both of whom are military officials.
Send an official who has an old relationship with Zhang Chu and can't control Zhang Chu's head to Taiping Town......
Zhang Chu pondered for a long time, but he only felt that these people who could be big officials all had a pair of clever hearts.
He warmly received this Lord Wu, accompanied him to a meal, and personally led him around Taiping Town, with a modest attitude that all achievements were due to Shangguan's guidance.
And this county lord Wu was also very cooperative with Zhang Chu to show his acting skills, pulling Zhang Chu's sleeve with one hand, wiping the tears that were not easy to rub out with the other, and sighed that Beiyin County was such a pillar, which is really a great fortune for Xuanbei Prefecture.
In the end, it was very hardcore to exempt Taiping Town from paying 30% of taxes and forced labor for the next three years.
Zhang Chu was immediately moved to say that if he wrote about the grace of adults, the people of Taiping Town would definitely treat it as a fart and never take it seriously.
Taxes?
Corvee?
Since the establishment of Taiping Town, these things have not existed.
Even, even the law of Dali can't control Taiping Town!
Didn't you see that the civil officials, swordsmen, pen and head catchers sent to Taiping Town by Wuqu County were too idle to partner up to do small business in Taiping Town?
The people who run Taiping Town are the members of the Taiping Society.
What restricts Taiping Town is Zhang Chu's will and the rules of the Taiping Society.
Of course, the filial piety silver taels handed over to Taibai Mansion by the Taiping Society every month are comparable to the taxes paid by a county for a quarter, and they are not worse than this little bit of scattered silver taels.
Before dawn the next day, the county lord Wu said that he was busy with official business and could not stay for a long time.
Zhang Chu personally sent him outside the bridge of the dog's nose and waved goodbye.
But not long after he returned to the town, he received news that Master Wu went straight back to Taibai Mansion as soon as he got off the mountain, and he didn't go to Wuqu County at all.
Obviously.
This Lord Wu is coming at him.
And he is not afraid to be known.
This is enough to prove that behind this Lord Wu, I am afraid that it is not just the Taibai Mansion County Ya......
Zhang Chu didn't pretend to be forced.
But a Taibai Mansion county government does not have the strength to talk to him on an equal footing.
He believed that this point was still in the hearts of Lord Lu of the county guard.
Zhang Chu didn't know if this Lord Wu had seen anything.
But he was sure that their investigation would not be smooth sailing.
That night, after the dagger guards counted the corpses from the fire, they poured fire oil on them and re-lit them.
The fire burned all night before it was extinguished.
Burned down the entire street where the mourning hall was located.
After the fire was extinguished, a wind shadow guard entered to investigate.
Not to mention the corpses, not even a grain of iron sand embedded in those corpses was found......
Killing people is really the best match for arson!
The big shots behind Lord Wu wanted to track down the black powder from the sound of the explosion that night and the ashes that were difficult to pinpoint even the first place of the incident.
It is even more difficult than when they saw the ashes, directly thinking that the scene where Zhang Chu killed Yu Jin and Wang Qian in Xuanling County was also a piece of ashes, and then thinking of the old things when Zhang Chu used firecrackers as weapons to destroy the Northern Barbarians when he was in Wuding County in the past, so as to finalize the identity of the real murderer behind Zhang Chu's scenes.
The latter is only a test of memory and analytical skills.
The former is a test of imagination!
For adults with a solid outlook, imagination is something more lacking than wisdom.
Zhang Chu knows very well that the major forces will not give up the investigation.
Even if this investigative process will be long, long......
Wan Jiangliu's death has indeed touched the nerves of some people.
It has nothing to do with Wan Jiangliu's identity.
The focus is on the strength of Wan Jiangliu.
Of course, whether there is any temptation accumulated by the Heavenly Sword Gate for seventy years in this, then only the person who tracks it down will know in his heart.
In the past few days, rumors such as "Heavenly Sword Gate Inheritance" and "Heavenly Sword Gate Treasure" have begun to circulate in Shangyuan County.
There are countless stupid hats who feel that they may be the protagonists of this generation of rivers and lakes, and they rush to Uehara County.
Now the water on the other side of Shangyuan County has become so muddy that even Zhang Chu, the initiator, can't see clearly.
Zhang Chu is still stable for the time being.
Whether Wu Zi'an came to confirm or test, it means that he is still safe for the time being.
The top priority at the moment is to promote Qi Hai as soon as possible.
As long as he can have the strength of the Qi Sea Realm before the gunpowder is exposed to the eyes of the people in power at the level of Zhenbei Wangfu and Xuanbei Prefecture, he will have the power to protect himself.
It is no longer a "mouth" that can be extinguished casually.
