Zu Xigui said: "Zu remembered that at that time, led by the Taishan faction, eight gangs in Shandong were assembled, plus our Eight Immortal Fist, a total of more than 300 people, and they were ambushed in the homes of four wealthy families in Jinan Mansion. I waited for five days in a row, but I didn't see the shadow of the unknown thief at all. At noon on the sixth day, I heard news from the beggar gang from Qingzhou, the night before, two large families in Qingzhou were robbed, in addition to the gold and silver treasures were stolen, nine people died in the two families.

After hearing the news, Master Shi was shocked and angry, and after leaving some people in Jinan Mansion, he immediately led people to Qingzhou. At that time, our Eight Immortal Fist also went to Qingzhou with Shi Zhangmen. After arriving in Qingzhou, a group of Taishan faction people who stayed in Mount Tai had already arrived in Qingzhou first, but they did not see the shadow of the nameless thief......

When Zu Xigui said this, he heard Guan Ping say: "Master Zu, do you remember who was the leader of the Taishan sect disciples at that time?"

Zu Xigui said: "This naturally remembers that it is a hero surnamed Lin. This Lin Yingying is handsome and has a good reputation among the Taishan faction. Zu saw that the disciples of your sect respected him very much, and they were very convinced of his words. ”

Guan Ping nodded, but did not speak again. Zu Xigui continued: "After we arrived at Qingzhou Mansion, we waited for more than half a month, but this thief never appeared again. As time went by, we couldn't all spend it in Qingzhou Mansion, so the gangs successively said goodbye to the Taishan faction and left Qingzhou Mansion. Our Eight Immortal Fist is just a small sect, so many people have arrived in Shandong, and they have to spend money to eat, drink and Lazar every day, and they can't afford to consume it anymore, so they have to say goodbye to Shizhangmen, and rushed back to Hebei on the same day. My junior brother gritted his teeth with hatred for this thief, and although he returned to Hebei with Zu and others, he often exchanged letters with his family in Jinan Mansion. I heard that this thief later committed several major crimes, but three years ago, this person suddenly disappeared and never came out to commit crimes again. Let's privately speculate that this person has done dozens of major cases in the past few years, and the gold, silver and jewelry obtained are afraid that he will not be able to spend them in ten lifetimes, so he may stop doing it and no longer take risks to commit crimes. My junior brother was so worried that he quietly returned to Jinan Mansion several times and searched around, but there was no clue. Suddenly, three years have passed, and his heart of revenge has faded, and he only hopes that this thief will be killed by someone at the time of the crime, or he will fall into the pond and cliff, which can be regarded as having eyes from heaven. ”

When he said this, he glanced at the five elders and said, "Our Eight Immortal Fists don't know why the heroes of the Taishan Sect have infighting, and we don't know the rights and wrongs. It's just that what Zu said is not half false, if the heroes have other discussions, Zu will listen to them. ”

Guan Ping said: "Guan thanked the ancestor for his righteous words. After that, he said to Ding Yu: "Senior Ding, what this ancestor head said, is there anything false?"

Ding Yu snorted and said, "He's smart, so he didn't make trouble." ”

Guan Ping said: "Senior Ding, you can think about it, every time we go down the mountain in a big way to ambush the nameless thief, who is the person who stays in the Chaotian Palace of Mount Tai to preside over the affairs of this faction?"

As soon as he said this, the faces of the five elders changed in unison, and they couldn't help but glance at each other. After a while, Ding Yu said in a deep voice: "If it is only us who goes down the mountain, it is naturally Senior Brother Shi who is in charge of Chaotian Palace. If Senior Brother Shi personally went down the mountain, it would naturally be Shu Jun who stayed in Chaotian Palace. That's because among the second-generation disciples of this sect, Shu Jun's martial arts are the highest. Although he is a disciple of the old man, Senior Brother Shi has always disliked him, but for the sake of his own affairs, Senior Brother Shi has to have a bowl of water. It's also thanks to Shu Jun, a kid, who is smart and serves Senior Brother Shi carefully, otherwise Senior Brother Shi would have found an excuse to be dismissed from teaching. ”

Guan Ping shook his head and said, "Senior Ding, what you said is not right. ”

Ding Yu said angrily: "Guan Ping, do you think you are still the head of the Taishan faction? If you say rude words again today, we can't let you go!"

Guan Ping said: "The ancestor is not afraid of Lin Shujun's strong martial arts, but also eyeing the position of the head of the family, worried that Senior Ding will seize the position of the head of the family. It's just that since it was rumored in the rivers and lakes that someone in the Taishan faction was secretly colluding with the unknown thief, the ancestor was furious, and he secretly investigated the matter in his own sect. Although our Taishan faction is famous all over the world, in fact, since the day the ancestor took over as the head of the sect, the ancestors of Ding have been dissatisfied in their hearts and have opposed the ancestor in everything......"

Before Guan Ping finished speaking, Kang Yan was furious, pointed at Guan Ping and said angrily: "Fart! Senior Brother Ding is the most serious person, cautious in doing things, and thinking about everything for his own sake, how can he go against Senior Brother Shi?!"

Wang Liang said in a weird manner: "Senior Brother Kang is right! We all know that Senior Brother Ding is fair and generous. Even if he doesn't accept the senior brother in charge, he won't openly resist him......"

As soon as Wang Liang's words came out, the surrounding heroes were amazed, and they all thought in their hearts: "Wang Liang's words confirm that Ding Yu and Shi Qingsong, the former head of the Taishan faction, are not on good terms, but I am afraid that after Shi Qingsong's death, the five elders will join forces to make it difficult for Shi Qingsong's eldest disciple Guan Ping, and they will deprive Guan Ping of the position of head of the sect and push his own disciple to the throne." It seems that the Taishan faction is infighting, and it must be the five elders of Taishan who are the first to attack, and the following are committed. ”

Ding Yu looked embarrassed, and secretly scolded Wang Liang for being stupid, but at this time, he must not show cowardice, otherwise he will never be able to raise his head in the rivers and lakes. He glanced at Wang Liang and said to Guan Ping: "You are the heart of a villain and the belly of a gentleman." The old man has always been polite to the senior brother in charge, and you also said that in order to arrest the thief, Senior Brother Shi once discussed with the old man alone. If it weren't for the fact that the old man had a good relationship with the senior brother in charge, how could he discuss this matter with the old man alone?"

Guan Ping smiled slightly, and said, "It's true that the ancestor asked Senior Ding to discuss this matter, but it was just a matter that he discussed with you, but it wasn't how to capture the thief." But after the ancestor secretly investigated the whereabouts of his disciples, he found that Lin Shujun had placed a lot of family property in Jinan and other places, and when we went down the mountain to arrest the thief, Lin Shujun also secretly left Mount Tai several times, and his whereabouts were strange, so he became suspicious. It's just that he is the most proud disciple of Ding's seniors, if you want to inquire about Lin Shujun, you have to say hello to Ding's seniors first. Senior Ding, is Guan's words true?"

Ding Yu's face turned pale, and he thought for a moment before he said in a deep voice: "Not bad." Senior brother in charge asked me about Shu Jun. ”

As soon as Ding Yu's voice fell, the faces of Jin Jin and Wang Liang changed greatly, but Kang Yan glanced at Ding Yu with an anxious expression. He Yin had been standing aside and silent, as if he was full of concerns.

Guan Ping said: "Although Senior Ding acted harshly, he could be regarded as above board. On that day, the master talked to Senior Ding and told Lin Shujun everything suspicious. Senior Ding swore at that time, only saying that Lin Shujun's family was honest and honest, and he was a big family in Dongchang Mansion. Placing industries in Jinan and other places is not a big deal. As for Lin Shujun secretly leaving Mount Tai several times, he was ordered by Ding's predecessor to go out on errands. Senior Ding also gave Lin Shujun a package ticket, and he definitely had nothing to do with the unknown thief. At that time, the first master saw that Ding's predecessors tried their best to defend Lin Shujun, so he didn't say much. It's just that since that day, the ancestor has been keeping an eye on Lin Shujun more and more......"

Ding Yu snorted and said: "You two masters and apprentices are afraid that Shu Jun will be respected by the disciples of all rooms in the Taishan faction, and they are afraid that he will take away your position of Guan Ping, so that the position of the head of the family will fall into the old man's lineage." It's really chilling to be so clever. ”

Guan Ping said: "Senior Ding, you are the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain!" The ancestor did not openly inquire about Lin Shujun, just to save face for Senior Ding. Otherwise, if it is pointed out that the eldest disciple of Senior Ding is the thief who does all kinds of evil, where will your Senior Ding's face go?"

As soon as he said this, Qunhao exclaimed again. Ding Yu's old face was swollen red, and he pointed at Guan Ping and said angrily: "You, you bloody mouth!"

Guan Ping still said calmly: "The ancestor has followed Lin Shujun several times, wanting to get evidence that he is evil. It's just that this Lin Shujun is extremely cunning, and as soon as there is a clue, he will stop it, and he has escaped the pursuit of the ancestor several times. It's just that three years ago, when he was working on a case, he was arrested by his master. The two of them started to move, this Lin Shujun's martial arts are indeed good, although he was seriously injured by the first teacher, but he also took advantage of the time when the first master saved people, and slapped the heart of the first teacher. The ancestor took Lin Shujun back to Mount Tai Chaotian Palace and quietly placed it in the courtyard where Ding was a senior residence. The original intention was to ask Senior Ding to personally inquire about Lin Shujun, and let Senior Ding clean up the portal by himself, leaving a step for Senior to go down. It's just that when Lin Shujun was seriously injured, he couldn't speak, and after seeing Senior Ding, he was shocked and angry, and died of anger after a while. Senior Ding only said that he was the hand of the enemy, not only did he not suspect Lin Shujun, but he was bent on avenging Lin Shujun. The first teacher was plotted by Lin Shujun and broke his heart. After returning to Chaotian Palace, he only said that he would practice martial arts in retreat, and recuperate in the secret room for three months, although he did not die on the spot, but he also left the root of vomiting blood, and died at the end of that year. There are hundreds of people from Taishan faction, but there are only two people who know about it, and one of them is Guan. ”

Kang Yan sneered: "The other person is naturally Senior Brother Shi! You master and apprentice sing and harmonize, but no one knows about this matter except for you two, how can you convince the public?"

Guan Ping smiled slightly, turned his head and said to He Yin, who had been silent, "Third Uncle, at this point, don't you stand up and say something fair?"
