Chapter 41: Blackthorn I
Yue Xiaofei, you and Lin Rusheng, you look at me, I look at you, with a confused face and a look of complete understanding. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Actually, it's normal for you not to know this name, Mr. Lin has lived in the city for a long time, and he has not been exposed to the complicated trivial matters in the rivers and lakes, so it is inevitable that he will not know some secret anecdotes. The owner of the gambling house smiled and explained.
"I see, by the way, Xiao Fei, haven't you been wandering the rivers and lakes alone? Lin Rusheng nodded, and asked Xiang Yue Xiaofei instead.
The latter shrugged his shoulders with a look of concern for me.
"This name does not refer to a specific person, but an organization, the first appearance of this name was ten years ago, but the time it appeared was very short, it can be described as a flash in the pan, looking at Mr. Yue's age, it is understandable that what happened ten years ago is not understood in detail. ”
It's not that I don't understand in detail, I don't know at all, Yue Xiaofei slandered.
"Ten years ago, you didn't have any impression of Xiao Fei?"
Ten years ago, I was skipping classes in high school every day to go to an Internet café to get scores.
Yue Xiaofei thought in his heart, of course he couldn't say these thoughts, he could only vaguely say that he couldn't remember clearly, Lin Rusheng didn't ask, but continued to listen to the owner of the gambling house.
The name Blackthorn came silently and left without attracting the attention of others. Blackthorn is the name of a venomous scorpion, and the reason why people give this scorpion this name is because the biggest feature of this scorpion is the pitch-black tail spines that are different from the color of the body.
Another feature is that it is highly poisonous and deadly.
The scale of the stinger is not large, unlike the general Jianghu organization, there are only five people who initially appear in people's sight, and no one knows where they came from, just like a scorpion that comes and goes silently, and appears in front of you coldly.
At first, those five people were just picking up some bounty characters on the rivers and lakes to make some money, and the range of activities was not large, just running around in the land of two continents, but those five people were very good, so they quickly became somewhat famous in a small circle.
However, the small circle means that there are few resources, and some gangs that make a living by completing bounties have targeted these juniors who "don't know the rules", and for the sake of their gang's business, they have decided to properly remove some obstacles.
The gang deliberately posted a task on the bounty list to hook five people, and then planned to clear them.
In the end, none of the gang survived, and when they were found, their bodies were already decomposed, and they all died of severe poison.
But after that, the five also disappeared.
This kind of thing happens from time to time in the rivers and lakes, that is, for insiders to talk about it after a few days of dinner, and no one mentions them again.
No one would have thought that half a year later, the turmoil would rise again.
As long as it has something to do with the previous extermination of the five people, whether it is the sect, the dart bureau, the merchants, or even the common people, they have all been retaliated against inhumanely.
Within a month, ten massacres occurred in different areas of the continent, and the government tried its best to find the murderer, but no one thought that the ten families that were wiped out had anything to do with a gang that was completely wiped out half a year ago.
"Then how do you know that they did these things, you said that in different regions, the land of one continent is so big, it is not impossible for this kind of case to happen. This time it was Yue Xiaofei who spoke.
"Be patient, listen to me first. The owner of the gambling house did not explain Yue Xiaofei's problem, and he didn't know where to take out a slender dry tobacco, and continued to talk while smoking.
The government has always had an unwritten rule, involving disputes in the rivers and lakes generally can not interfere, although the power of the court is there, but the influence of the people in the rivers and lakes is too great, some of the emperors are far away, often the most powerful people are not the officials appointed by the court, but those who have a high status in the rivers and lakes.
The ten tragic cases are no longer related, but after all, they happened in one month, and it is difficult not to let people connect them.
But they still found a common denominator, the method of exterminating the door is without exception the use of poison.
Now it is obvious that this is what the people in the rivers and lakes do, and the government has arranged for people in the rivers and lakes to go and investigate, but they have found nothing.
There are several reasons for this, one is that no one knows what happened half a year ago, but ten doors are destroyed in a month, and the energy behind this is by no means small, even people who know what happened half a year ago will not think of those small five people.
Moreover, the use of drugs has always been a shame for the people of the rivers and lakes, and most of the sects that are good at using drugs are also very low-key because they do not compete with the world, so no one will touch their moldy heads and put things on their heads.
However, there are still some small sects that are connected to the group of people half a year ago who realized this and began to look for this group of people.
After looking for it, they found that this was the first time that the word blackthorn appeared in their field of vision.
But at that time, it was no longer as simple as five people, and in half a year, relying on the original five people, it was unexpectedly developed into an organization that was unknown to outsiders.
But in the eyes of others, it is still fledgling, so in order to get rid of this hidden danger hidden in the shadows, and at the same time not to provoke the fire, the small sect that found out this information stabbed all the known news of Blackthorn to the government and asked them to solve it.
The government is naturally happy to reap the benefits, and sent people to arrest these people, which can be regarded as panicking the people everywhere because of some riots because of these massacres.
There was no sound in this operation, and it stands to reason that it is rare for that group of officials to be reliable once, and they are quite efficient.
But in the end, only a small group of people came back alive, and all of them were poisoned without exception, and it didn't take long for them to die one by one.
When asked what happened to their falls, everyone kept repeating two words.
"Scorpion.... Scorpion...."
This time, it was the turn of those officials to be worried.
If it were those people, even if there were many such annihilations, they would be able to suppress the matter, but now that the soldiers of the army have been sent out to have an accident, it is to suppress this matter, but it makes them worried.
They realized that Blackthorn wasn't really that easy to solve, and at least this time, they didn't dare to send a group of people over and threaten to exterminate them.
Although this matter was not known to more people on the surface, those small sects and small gangs still knew about this failure, and at the same time they all muttered in their hearts.
If the people in the government can't solve this matter, then they will definitely not be able to bargain.
So they came up with a way, the people of the rivers and lakes cooperated with the government's army to come forward to solve the hot potato of the black thorn, but they had already mobilized manpower in their own territory before, and it was not easy to suppress it, if something happened again, it would endanger their black yarn hats, and even the heads on the neck. ”
"So they borrowed people from somewhere else?" said Lin Rusheng.
"Then do you know where they transferred people from, and who is the person leading the team?" the casino owner looked at Lin Rusheng's eyes and said slowly.
Lin Rusheng didn't understand why he asked this, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.
"The transferred people and horses were borrowed from Dayuan Mansion, and you should be familiar with the people who led the team. ”
"Me?" Lin Rusheng's eyes were a little puzzled.
"That person is your father, the general of Dayuan Mansion, Zhang Feng. ”
