Chapter 113: The Hidden Dragon
Baicheng once heard that in today's world, the seven countries are in dispute, and all countries are fighting fiercely, pushing the people to the front line to fight for their lives, but since ancient times, eight or nine times out of ten in the battlefield have been killed in a foreign land, so in the barracks, there are often sergeants fleeing.
Later, in order to prevent the sergeants from escaping, various countries tattooed gold seals on the cheeks of the enlisted sergeants, and it was not until they left the army that they were washed away by the secret method of the army.
Bai Cheng took a closer look, stretched out his hand and rubbed it twice, and after confirming that it was correct, he asked tentatively, "Uncle Cheng, is this a person from the imperial court?"
Cheng Shiming sighed and said: "This person's surname is Han Mingzhan, and he is the number one tracking master in the Imperial Forest Army, I haven't found a chance to kill him for three years, but I didn't expect it to be planted in the hands of this brother today." After speaking, he glanced at Lin Suhuan, his eyes full of surprise.
Lin Su was not surprised at all, and grinned at him.
Bai Cheng put down the man in black, turned his head and asked, "Uncle Cheng, could it be that this matter still involves people in the court?" The disciple was a little puzzled. ”
Cheng Shiming sighed slightly and said, "I don't blame you if I don't understand, the inside story is extremely complicated." ”
Bai Cheng said: "Please also ask Uncle Shi to elaborate." ”
Cheng Shiming sorted out his thoughts and said slowly: "Back then, long before Senior Brother Bai passed away, I felt that something was wrong with Liu Qingshan, and I also reminded Senior Brother Bai several times, but Senior Brother Bai didn't take it to heart. ”
Bai Cheng nodded and said, "Master is a glorious person, and he has always treated others with himself, and he has never paid much attention to these conspiracies. ”
Cheng Shiming said: "What you said is good. Later, when Senior Brother Bai had an accident, I felt that there was a great danger approaching your master and apprentice, so I tried every means to prevent you from taking over the position of head of the family, hoping to pull you out of the crisis, and you don't blame Uncle Bai for this. ”
Bai Cheng said: "Where Uncle Shi said, the disciple has self-knowledge. ”
Cheng Shiming nodded, and then said: "After the death of my senior brother, I began to investigate and secretly visit, secretly found Liebeishan's remnants in the rivers and lakes, and killed a few ruthlessly, and finally found out a major event, it turned out that Liebeishan was nominally a master of evil ways, but in fact he had joined a secret organization codenamed "Hidden Dragon", and the head of this organization was a big man in Beijing. ”
Bai Cheng couldn't help but be stunned, he never expected that this matter would involve such a complicated matter.
Cheng Shiming continued: "After finding out the news, I disguised myself and infiltrated the capital, and joined an underground gang in Beijing under a pseudonym, hoping to find out any news. ”
Bai Cheng seemed to remember something, and said: "No wonder Uncle Shi was often not in the mountain gate in those years, it turned out that he went to the capital. This Han Zhan is the one who met Uncle Shi at that time?"
Cheng Shiming shook his head and said: "How can it be so easy, I have been in the capital for two years, but I have found nothing, it is inevitable that I can't bear it, and I am a little disheartened." ”
Bai Cheng said: "Uncle Shi's patience is already excellent. ”
Cheng Shiming sneered and said, "Skynet is magnificent, negligent but not leaky. There was a **** who was really bored, so he went to a remote tavern to drink, and accidentally met Liu Qingshan and a person dressed as a housekeeper and had a good conversation. ”
Bai Cheng Chang took a breath and said, "I wonder if Liu Qingshan also discovered you, Senior Uncle?"
Cheng Shiming shook his head and said, "When I was active in Beijing, I was always used to dressing up, and he didn't recognize me. After they were separated, I took a look at the butler who followed him, and designed to arrest him and force him to interrogate the content of his conversation with Liu Qingshan. ”
Bai Cheng hurriedly asked, "What did he say?"
Cheng Shiming said: "This person is a tough guy, I even used several methods of coercion on the rivers and lakes, but he refused to spit out, and finally took advantage of my unprepared suicide." Fortunately, I found a secret letter on him, it turned out that Liu Qingshan had already joined the organization codenamed "Hidden Dragon", and he also used the power of that organization to do a few things, but what he did was not detailed in the letter. ”
When Cheng Shiming said this, he said with some embarrassment: "In this way, I know that Senior Brother Bai's death is only inseparable from him, so I returned to the mountains and secretly monitored Liu Qingshan's every move, and found that he not only colluded with this organization, but also entangled with some scum in the rivers and lakes, two of whom you must know." ”
Bai Cheng asked, "Are those two?"
Cheng Shiming said: "Fan Liangyu is alone for thousands of miles, and Mo Yu is fanned by Hehuan." ”
Bai Cheng said angrily, "Lie Beishan's sworn brothers?" and then reacted again, asking, "Didn't they die at the hands of Elder Jiang?"
Cheng Shiming said, "This is what Elder Jiang said to us. ”
Bai Chengqi said: "Elder Jiang, he"
Cheng Shiming interrupted his words and said: "Let's talk about Elder Jiang's matter later, and then talk about this matter, after more than half a year, I gradually figured out the details of Liu Qingshan, it turned out that Senior Brother Bai's death was the instruction of this organization, and Liu Qingshan and Lie Beishan were only specific executors, so I was ready to design to capture him and force him to ask for the secrets of the organization." ”
Bai Cheng's expression tightened, and he said, "This organization is so powerful, I'm afraid that Uncle Shi will be controlled by it." ”
Cheng Shiming smiled bitterly and said: "You are right, I was too anxious at the time, I didn't know where I missed the horse's feet, and before I could do anything, I was first conspired by them, and I was forced to take a Lock Heart Pill, and since then I can only work for them." ”
Bai Cheng's face changed suddenly, and he asked, "What is the Lock Heart Pill?"
Cheng Shiming shook his head and didn't want to speak.
Lin Su also continued on the side: "The Lock Heart Pill is a secret poison in the Chen Palace, which is specially used to control unscrupulous ministers, and those who take the medicine must take the antidote every year, otherwise they will die of anger and blood, and the most important thing is that there is no cure for this poison, and it must be taken every year." ”
Bai Cheng only felt a chill in his heart and asked, "Why do they have this thing, could it be that the big man behind this organization is a member of the royal family?"
Cheng Shiming shook his head and said: "I haven't found out this either, but they don't feel at ease if Rao is so, every time they arrange for me to act, they must work in groups of three, let the other two monitor my actions from afar and close, as long as my actions are slightly wrong, they will immediately inform the organization." ”
Bai Cheng couldn't help but be shocked, and asked, "Then Uncle Shi, why did you kill this person, aren't they?"
Cheng Shiming waved his hand to interrupt Bai Cheng and said, "Life and death are trivial matters, how to eradicate Liu Qingshan and avenge Senior Brother Bai is a major matter. In the past, I didn't turn against them, because I was not sure to get rid of the surveillance of these two people, and I didn't have people to rely on. Now that they are dead, and you are successful in martial arts in Xiaocheng, there is hope for success in this matter. In that case, hehe, what is my own life? ”
