Chapter 228: Rashomon
Suzaku accepted the gamble.
It seems to be an unequal gamble, after all, if one loses, he only needs to shout good sister, and if he loses, he will uncover his face.
But Suzaku never thought he could lose.
As one of the strongest people in the world, he has pride and self-confidence. Venerable Vermilion Bird, one person can suppress all the forces in this city, and he will use your help at most to make a move and get some intelligence information, how can he really rely on him?
It's quite interesting to be able to call him a good sister in exchange for him in the future.
The two went their separate ways, and Suzaku went to the Pinghu Club leisurely.
Assuming that Hurley had been recuperating from his injuries here, and now that he is gone, he can't find out the truth when he secretly asks the backyard handyman, and if he wants to investigate, he must catch a high-level person to ask, but it is easy to startle the snake. Suzaku decided to assume that this matter did not exist for the time being, and purely asked about the Pinghu Association to "unify Sword Lake City".
This is indeed the task that the Four Elephants Sect asked Wei Yueyan to do in Sword Lake City, and it has given a lot of resources and manpower support before and after. It is also one of the examples of Suzaku saying that "the hidden power of the Holy Sect is much greater than you think".
How to unify specifically, that is Wei Yueyan herself is fully responsible, Suzaku did not interfere again, maybe there is a report on the progress to the general altar, but Suzaku is outside for a while, and there is no way to receive information.
Excluding the matter of the Hu people, and discussing the task of unifying Sword Lake City alone, Wei Yueyan seems to have done it perfectly. As for using Han Wuxian and the like, from Suzaku's point of view, it really doesn't matter, and if she does it herself, Han Wuzhi may be crushed to death......
She thought about it, and reluctantly took off the piglet mask and replaced it with the winged fire snake.
Yan Lianping, president of the Pinghu Association, was discussing with his subordinates in the council hall about matters in the city: "How is the reception of the Xingyi Gang's industry?" ”
"It's generally okay, there are only shops on the road on Taiping Street, and the Ji family said that it is a personal property, and it should be left to their son-in-law to inherit, and it has nothing to do with the gang industry."
"Did the person who went to kill the son of the Ji family reply to the letter?"
"It's been blocked on the road and killed. The Ji family doesn't know yet, and it is estimated that there will be news tomorrow. ”
"Hmm...... The son of the Ji family worships the Shenhuang Sect, although he is just an outer disciple, this matter is still not suitable for publicity. ”
"Isn't the old and young of the Ji family ......," the subordinate said and made a cutting gesture.
"No, their sons are dead, what else can they do? Keep the old and young women and children to raise, and you can still earn a reputation, and help the old department in peace and prosperity...... The Xingyi Gang has some strong players, and it is still very useful. We want to dominate Sword Lake City, and we can't kill all of them, so how can we fight Sha Qi and them? ”
"The president will be wise."
"Is there any news about Han Wu's illness?"
"No...... As if he had disappeared completely, the old Xingyi Gang was now searching for him all over the world. ”
"It's a pity......" said pity, his tone was still very flat, and he didn't feel much pity.
The subordinate said: "No matter if he is gone or lurking in the city, anyway, he is only a seven-fold entrance, and no matter how strong his potential is, it will be a matter of the future, and one person can't change the sky." ”
"Hmm...... Go ahead, you have to worry a lot about the reorganization of the Xingyi Gang, this seat is going to rest. ”
The subordinate retired: "The president has been working hard recently, and he has a good rest." ”
The hall was soon empty, and Yan Lianping sat alone on the main seat and thought quietly for a while, his face flickering in the candlelight.
After a long time, he said slowly: "Where is the master coming, why don't you show up and see it?" ”
The candle flame flickered, the wind swept by, and Suzaku wearing the mask of the winged fire snake suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Winged Fire Serpent?" Yan Lianping frowned: "Isn't this position vacant?" New to the new arrival? Or ......"
Halfway through speaking, he suddenly struck out, and a shuttle silently struck the winged fire serpent's shoulder.
The shuttle suddenly vanished, as if it had never existed.
Yan Lianping's pupils shrank: "What a spirit snake spit out letters...... It's really a winged fire snake. ”
Suzaku was amused in his heart, and said lightly: "I heard that there is a change in Sword Lake City, and His Holiness asked me to ask about the situation and whether I need help." ”
Yan Lianping immediately said: "You came just in time." We do need help. ”
"Huh?"
"First of all, Han Wuxian escaped, there will inevitably be changes, I can't act rashly here, and the others are not Han Wuxi's opponents, if you can take his life, it's the best."
"Han Wuxian has an old relationship with the Holy Maiden, why is there such a quarrel?"
"I don't know, we originally used this reason to cooperate with him, and Ji Yinan was indeed killed by him, but for some reason he suddenly changed his face, and we also wondered. But no matter what the reason, since he has changed his face and wants to kill us, we can't sit still. ”
Suzaku asked, "Just because it's the Four Elephants Sect, he's willing to help you kill people?" ”
"It's because he found out that Ji Yinan colluded with the Hu people to take in the injured mad lion Helei. Originally, Han Wuxian wanted to kill Helei, but one step too late, Helei had already left, and the target became Ji Yinan. Originally, it was a happy cooperation, but I don't know how it changed. ”
Suzaku was stunned.
This is different from what Wei Zicai said...... Looking at Yan Lianping's calm attitude, it really doesn't look like a fake, and this matter is easy to goof, whether Helei lives in the Pinghu Club or in the Xingyi Gang, it should be easy to find out, how can it be said that it is so bad?
Confused in his heart, his tone was still quiet: "What else is there besides Han Wuxi?" ”
"We have now taken advantage of the situation to absorb the Xingyi Gang, and after thoroughly digesting it, the strength of the momentum is the first in the city, and the next step should be to chat with Sha Qi from the Kangle Casino. If he doesn't know each other, if he doesn't know each other......" Yan Lianping said: "I have already sent a letter to the General Altar yesterday, asking His Holiness to show him, will Ying Wu personally inquire about the gang hegemony in Sword Lake City?" ”
Suzaku asked knowingly, "What will happen, what will it be?" ”
"If Ying Wu will personally inquire about the affairs here, then His Holiness must come forward to negotiate with him. If we don't bother and just deal with it according to the subordinate gangs, then we may be able to prepare for a war with the Recreation Casino. Mainly I look at Sha Qi's name and Ying Wu's category, I'm afraid the nature is a bit close......"
Suzaku pretended to be cute: "That's it...... I don't know much about what is going on behind the scenes, so I will write to His Holiness and ask. ”
"Hmm." Yan Lianping smiled: "I can't imagine the new sisters in the sect, it's getting late now, let's have a good night's rest first, and tomorrow we will hold a banquet for my brother's big to catch the wind and wash the dust for you." ”
…………
When Suzaku pretended to be new in Pinghu, Zhao Changhe went to Ji's house.
As soon as the little pig mask was taken off, a circle of disfigurement ointment was applied to his face, and he soon turned into a sallow yellow-faced rough man, which was exactly what he looked like when he attacked and killed Fa Sheng before.
There is no need to hide the broadsword on the back, because there are more people dressed up now.
When the Ji family was newly mourned, they were still at home, with white flags everywhere. Walking on the road, I heard others discussing: "Why hasn't Ji Gongzi come back, it's been a few days......"
"The Shenhuang Sect is a little far away, and the news has just arrived at this time...... Alas, it's useless for Gongzi to come back, he is just a disciple of the outer sect of the Shenhuang Sect, what can he learn, and the Shenhuang Sect will not stand out for him. ”
"Isn't the master from the Shenhuang Sect?"
"It's just a gang of support, and there are more of them in the world."
Zhao Changhe silently listened to the whispers around him, walked all the way to the door of Ji's house, and was quickly stopped, and the person guarding the door was also weak: "This, our master has just passed away, if you come to worship, you can leave your name." ”
Zhao Changhe directly learned and sold: "I am from the Shenhuang Sect, Senior Brother Ji will not have time to rush back for a while, so I will come to worship my uncle first and see if there is anything at home that needs help." ”
The doorman was overjoyed, and immediately someone rushed into the door: "Madame, Madame! The young master's senior brother is here! ”
Soon greeted a middle-aged woman, and cried at Zhao Changhe: "Shaoxia wants to administer justice for our master......"
Zhao Changhe remained silent: "Madame, don't worry, take me in to worship one or two first, what the specific situation is, you can slowly talk to me." ”
He didn't hear the message from Suzaku...... But this incident made him feel very complicated from the beginning, there were too many forces involved, and it really wasn't necessarily a matter of urban gang fighting.
It's useless to ask anyone about this kind of thing, maybe the best answer is to ask about the corpse.
