Chapter Ninety-Two: Arresting
As he was talking, Xuan Jizi was also puzzled: "By the way, you are still not a member of the Fire Spirit Sect?" ”
Shang Hanchen patted his chest: "Hey, I've been retired for three years, and Guan Shouyi won't want me." ”
Xuan Jizi nodded after listening: "Then join the White Lotus Sect, we are just short of manpower here, and our White Lotus Sect is now preparing to go north." There is a lack of a person in charge of recruitment, training, and ordnance allocation. I see, I'll just tell Yin Changsheng that you'll go there, okay. After Xuanjizi finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Shang Hanchen didn't expect it to be so easy for him to run this official, for fear that this was Xuanjizi dealing with him, so he hurriedly caught up and asked, "Brother Xuanji, is this ...... Do you think I can do it? ”
Xuan Jizi turned around and said solemnly: "I know the ability of your brother Hanchen, and there is still one less farmer in our Nanhai County, and you can still take on the job when the time comes." ”
Shang Hanchen was overjoyed, but he didn't expect that after such a while, another black gauze hat flew in. Hurriedly bowed and said: "The little brother is willing to smear the liver and brain, and the liver and brain to the ground." ”
"That's it, there is a shortage of people, and there is a shortage of talents," Xuan Jizi smiled, "Okay, then I'm still busy, you just wait for my news." As he spoke, he turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by Genjiko again.
Shang Hanchen made a mysterious gesture and said, "When the junior brother returned to Nanhai County this time, his ears were full of rumors. It is said that your safety may be unexpected, so you should be careful. ”
Xuan Jizi's expression was a little gloomy: "Brother, the rumor you heard is that someone is going to assassinate me, right?" ”
"No, you have a nose and eyes."
Xuan Jizi sighed, patted Shang Hanchen's arm and said, "I can't hide it, I know these people very well. They think that by getting rid of me, they can destroy the unity of the two religions. When Piao Gao Ancestor was alive, they hated me to the core. Now that the patriarch is gone, they threaten to kill me. ”
Shang Hanchen said: "I also heard that someone wants to harm you with a sledgehammer. ”
After hearing this, Xuan Jizi looked up to the sky and laughed: "Brother, I really dare to say it, we have heard of poisoning wine with daggers, crossbows and arrows, and we haven't heard of using sledgehammers, right?" It's really new. ”
Shang Hanchen made a bitter gesture and persuaded: "Brother Xuanji, you have to come to Master Shuiyue every time to do something. It's complicated along the way, so you might as well add a few more guards. ”
"More guards? Oh," Genyoshiko sighed, "my wife persuaded me with the same thing." ”
"yes, that's a good idea."
"Yes, adding more guards will make it easier to catch the murderers, but can you stop them from committing murder? In the past two months, I have to go to many places every day, and I have to meet many people, unless I resign and retire, how can I prevent it? If they want to assassinate me, they can disguise themselves as a palanquin man, or anyone with their foot strength, and hide in the crowd to assassinate me. Sooner or later, it is impossible to prevent it, so I can only be worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth, the White Lotus Holy Sect, and the grace of the patriarch. I don't care about life and death, but the union of the two religions can't be a little lax, right? ”
Shang Hanchen nodded again, he didn't expect Xuan Jizi to say such a thing. Shedding blood for the sake of the Holy Sect was something that everyone would say, and he never thought that there would be such a person in a high position, and such a White Lotus Patriarch was really practicing this sentence. He couldn't help but be a little stunned, and looked at Xuan Jizi in front of him a little distracted.
He sighed that there are really such people in the world. However, such emotions were only swept away in Shang Hanchen's heart.
"Don't worry about it," Xuan Jizi thought that Shang Hanchen's distraction was still worried about himself, and nodded: "I'm going to discuss with Master Shuiyue, that's all." ”
Looking at Xuanjizi's distant back, Shang Hanchen suddenly remembered something, and he said eagerly: "Brother Xuanji, I still have a lot to ask you about my brother's affairs." ”
Genjiko, who had already gone away, said, "Don't worry. ”
Shang Hanchen never imagined that his reminder would become a prophecy. As Genjiko was leaving the house after running errands, two Assassins suddenly appeared from upstairs and smashed them at Genyoshiko with a chain hammer, and they hit him instantly. Genyoshiko fell to the ground, and when Genyoshiko's personal soldiers chased after him, he fought with the Assassins, and two of his personal soldiers killed one of the Assassins, one of whom was also killed by the Assassins.
The assassin died and fled without a trace, and Mrs. Aomine, who was also at the scene at the time, pounced on her husband and desperately called out to him: "Genjiko, Genjiko!" However, Genjiko could only widen her eyes at this time. He watched as his wife could not speak, and the blood kept gushing out of his mouth, so choking that he could not spit out a sound. Xuan Jizi swallowed her breath after a while, and Mrs. Aomine lay down and cried.
There was chaos in the demon city for a while. Although Xuanjizi was isolated among the elders of the White Lotus Sect, she was extremely loved by the people and believers. At this time, the Piao Gao Patriarch passed away, and there were four people in charge of the White Lotus Sect. It was supposed to be the five elders, but although Wang Zhenji had a high status, he was unwilling to hold real power.
These four people are Yin Changsheng, Xuan Jizi, Lin Ji, and Wei Fu. Among the Big Four, Yin Changsheng and Wei Fu are like brothers.
Wei Fu once said: "Since entering the White Lotus Sect, Yu has worked with Changsheng a lot, and the blind date is flesh and blood. "Once Wei Fu went out on an expedition, after the defeat of the army, Yin Changsheng misheard the death of Wei Fu, and immediately cried until he fainted, and after waking up, he wrote, "But pity the blood of the two people, and do not shed for a while." Such a heartfelt verse.
On the day of the assassination, all the elders of Bailian gathered at the general altar to discuss the matter, and decided to set up an investigation yamen composed of Yin Changsheng, Wei Fu, and Cheng Shaoqing, and granted full authority to investigate the assassination. It was agreed that the Commissioner had the power to investigate and prosecute the case, regardless of the status of the other party.
In the process of dealing with the assassination case, Cheng Shaoqing and Yin Changsheng have always worked closely together to cut off dissidents. Although Yin Changsheng, Cheng Shaoqing and Wei Fu were all members of the investigation yamen, in fact, the investigation yamen was completely controlled by Yin Changsheng and Cheng Shaoqing. Yin Changsheng took this opportunity to attack Wei Fu, and Cheng Shaoqing aimed at his immediate boss, Lin Ji, the elder who led the troops.
Cheng Shaoqing summoned his subordinates to the military academy and arranged for the arrest of the culprit. The heavily armed military academy attendants in the hall stood on both sides, and Cheng Shaoqing sat in the center. He held a short knife and said: "This is the murder weapon used by the murderer Wang Shun when he assassinated Xuan Jizi, and the inscription on it can be known that this is the ordnance of Xiao Ran, the right army of the Southern Navy." ”
looked at the generals and officers present, "Lin Ji, the chief military officer of Nanhai County, is to blame. Cheng Shaoqing roared angrily.
After saying that, Shaoqing looked at the generals and colonels present again, and said, "Pass my order and immediately surround Lin Ji's General Military Mansion." ”
