Chapter 66: Unexpected
When Zhou Qian and a few people rushed to the deck, it was almost full of people, and the noise was endless, Wang Hu was dressed in night clothes, his hands were tied behind his back, and there was a trace of blood on the corner of his mouth. The beggars and people close to them surrounded Wang Hu and looked at Wei Guang and the others with a wary expression.
"Brother Tiger-" Zhou Qian whispered to himself.
"It turned out that Brother Zhou and Senior Lou came, but unfortunately they came a little late. Wei Guang was like a peacock with the screen open, and said with a smile.
"Little ghost of the Tang Sect, this is not a place for you to play! Hurry up and let me go!" Lou Yuxiao said in a deep voice, the beggar gang is all over the world, and there are many friendships, and there is a faint momentum of the first gang in Middle-earth, and the gang leader Tu Yong is even more talented, and he will repay him, Lou Yuxiao doesn't want to see an earth-shattering battle between the Tang Sect and the beggar gang in the future rivers and lakes.
Lou Yuxiao frowned and glanced at Fei Yue, what was the plan of this deputy sect master of the Tang Sect? If it weren't for his instructions, Wei Guang, this kid, probably wouldn't dare to risk the world's condemnation.
"Brother Lou, why don't you listen to my nephew?" Fei Yue seemed to notice Lou Yuxiao's eyes and said with a smile.
Wei Guang was even more vigorous, raised his voice and said: "The tall feet of this beggar gang leader have already seen that something is wrong with him, so he quietly monitored him for many days; finally, this 'real murderer' couldn't hold it back, and appeared around the ugly time last night, dressed in night clothes, I don't know who I want to kill, I will make a decision and capture him in one fell swoop!"
The people around were in an uproar, these days of life really made these well-informed people in the rivers and lakes also feel frightened, the battle of the rivers and seas, Hu Niangzi was tortured and killed, the mouse was assassinated, the Sand Bird Lou boat caught fire, Xiang Feihe was arrested, how can now the 'black man behind the scenes' become a beggar gang again? Or the leader of the beggar gang Tu Yong, is it possible that the beggar gang has anything to do with it?
"First Brother Xiang, and now there is Wang Hu, what are you guys going to do!!" The iron rod Zhao black red eyes clamored, he is Xiang Feihe's best friend of life and death, after Xiang Feihe's death, he has been borrowing alcohol to kill his sorrows, and now there is another Laoshzi murderer, isn't Xiang Feihe wronged? What the hell are these people in charge doing?
The people around him were also clamoring, Zhou Qianzhi, who listened, frowned, these people in the rivers and lakes are probably also patient to the limit, if they can't give a reasonable explanation, I'm afraid that this group of thorns will scatter on the spot, and go their separate ways, regardless of what is the big thing in the world, help you to talk about righteousness with you, you have no righteousness to talk about, don't blame Lao Tzu for not giving you face!
"Idiot, what do you know, the real murderer is Wang Hu," Wei Guang reprimanded unceremoniously, "As for Xiang Feihe, it's just his target to attract people's attention!"
"Evidence!!" Zhou Qian raised his voice, "Brother Hu may have a confidential mission from the beggar gang, so he has unspeakable hardships;
"Hmph! The murderer has not been arrested for a long time, and I have been wondering before, what is the reason for this," Wei Guang sneered, "Now that I think about it, it can't be said that someone is secretly covering it up, ignoring the morality of the rivers and lakes!"
"Okay! You want proof! I'll give you proof!" Wei Guang loved this feeling of attention.
"Five days ago, on the night of Hu Niangzi's murder, you were not at the banquet, where are you? Can anyone testify?" Wei Guang pointed at Wang Hu and said.
"In my room, there was no one to testify. Wang Hu said expressionlessly.
"When Mrs. Hu screamed before she died, everyone rushed to her room, where are you? β
Zhou Qian was stunned for a moment, frowned and looked at Qiqiao'er, Qiqiao'er apologized, and said slowly: "At that time, Zhou Shaoxia and I were on the bow deck, and as soon as I heard the cry of Mrs. Hu, I rushed over, so I saw Brother Wang hurrying out, but for some reason. β
"Oh, haha, it's really interesting, or rather, it's really a coincidence, it just so happened that Brother Tiger wanted to go to the banquet at that time, I don't know if it was right?" Wei Guang joked.
"That's what happened!" Wang Hu said in a sullen voice.
"Okay! I believe what Brother Tiger said," Wei Guang said suddenly, but the conversation changed, "But how do you explain this dagger?"
Wei Guang's eyes signaled, and the water bandit quickly presented the dagger that the mouse had used that day.
"Everyone, this dagger must have been seen by everyone, the personal blade of the mouse, yesterday I went to consult my uncle Fei Yue, his old man is also a master in weapon casting, he judged that this dagger is cast of blazing iron, cold, wear-resistant, non-advanced people can not be broken, I know that there are several first-class masters on the ship," Wei Guang glanced at Zhou Qian, Lou Yuxiao, Fei Yue, and said: "But even they can't bend it with their palms alone." β
"And under my investigation in the past few days, there are only eight masters on the entire ship who can do this!"
"Five of them have been confirmed to be at the banquet that day, and Qiao Rui, the giant spirit palm, and the three of them are gambling on pai gow in their room, and there is no suspicion, and the ironsmelter Zhang Feng practiced his palm skills on the deck, although no one else saw it, but the guards on duty late at night can confirm it, and even Wu Zhangling had talked to him when he inspected it, and he could also testify. β
"So," Wei Guang's eyes burned, "Brother Wang Hu, who is the heir of the Beggar Gang's peerless Shocking Waves, where were you at the time, and who was the one who fought with the rats that day?"
Wang Hu was silent for a moment and said, "It's indeed me, but I didn't kill Hu Niangzi and Mouse." β
"Oh?" Wei Guang said meaningfully.
"But isn't the murderer from the Red Lotus Sect?and that token?" Fang Feifei retorted, he still held a grudge against the events of that night, and he couldn't see the scenery of the Tang Sect.
"Hmph, that kind of token, as much as you want, I can have people carve as many as you want!" Fei Yue said coldly.
"That's enough!" Qiao Shan, the three bags of disciples of the Beggar Gang, screamed angrily, stared at the left and right, and looked around: "Before the old beggar came, I heard the gang leader say that there is a special task to be handed over to Xiaohu, which is confidential and must not be leaked to others! Could it be that Wang Hugui is a disciple of the leader of the beggar gang, and hundreds of thousands of beggar gang disciples in the world can be sent, and his status is so respected, why do you have to kill an old bustard and an assassin? Or is there any friend who can't get along with my beggar gang?"
The restless crowd gradually settled down, and even if all the beggars present were of extraordinary strength, they couldn't help but have scruples; moreover, what the old beggar said also made some sense, and the beggar gang was the initiator of this operation in terms of strength and status, and many people on the ship joined in the face of the beggar gang, and now the apprentice of the beggar gang leader wants to prevent or sabotage the operation? Isn't this a fallacy?
"I think this matter really has something to do with the beggar gang," Fei Yue suddenly interjected. "Two days ago, someone found me, Mr. Tu, why don't you say a few words?"
"Lord Feimen is going to put me on top of the fire pit!" Mr. Tu smiled bitterly, "Under Tu Yue, the Jianghu bandit is called the Falling Rain Sword, but there is also a double identity below, which is one of the twenty-six brocade clothes catchers of the six gates, codename, Pig Pig." β
"Someone from the official family?"
"Why are the people of the imperial court on the ship of the Sand Bird Tower?
"It's really hateful that the imperial court is meddling in the affairs of the rivers and lakes again!"
There were voices of discussion, and the senses of the people in the rivers and lakes were very complicated about today's imperial court. On the one hand, when the imperial court drove out Hu Lu and restored the Central Plains, it was borrowed from the power of the people of the Southern Martial Arts, so there was some friendship with incense; on the other hand, with the establishment of the Han Dynasty, after the prosperity of the dynasty, the continuous infiltration and supervision of the rivers and lakes also made this group of people quite scruples.
Mr. Tu said aloud: "The affairs of the rivers and lakes should be handled by the people of the rivers and lakes themselves, but what if this matter is already large enough to go out of the rivers and lakes? What if it is said that a certain big faction on the rivers and lakes has secretly united and wants to do something rebellious?"
Who ??! the beggars ??!! rebels?!!??
"Of course, it's all speculation now," Mr. Tu breathed a sigh of relief, "but some things are better to be clear!"
"On 5 April, Jinyiwei's spies found some letters from 10 years ago in the home of a certain person in Jiangxi, the contents of which involved rebellion. β
"On the seventh day, the commander of the Jinyi Guard made Master Peng get the news, and he did not dare to be arbitrary, and reported to His Majesty today, and His Majesty made a decision immediately and ordered the six doors to take over. β
"Ten white-clothed Jinyi guards and 26 brocade-clothed catchers all sneaked into the rivers and lakes; Dongchang, Jinyiwei, Shence Neiwei, Liumen, and the Inspection Department of the Military Department poured out; in April, May, June, and March, almost half of the rivers and lakes were searched. β
"On May 14 in Daning, June 7 in the same city, and June 15 in Xining, there are a large number of weapons, grain and grass, but all kinds of evidence do not point to the Red Lotus Sect and other evil sects, but are faintly related to the beggar gang!"
"And today's beggar gang leader Tu Yong, thirty years ago when the heroes were competing for the deer, once raised the banner of righteousness, occupied the Lingnan area, called 'Tu Wang', although after the persuasion of Ling Huye and Zhou Xun two heroes, he scattered the soldiers and returned to the people, and abandoned the ambition of dominating the world, but time has passed, and it is the opportunity of the treasure of the first emperor, no one knows the idea of this hero. β
"And this brave slaughterer, these days of mysterious whereabouts, I have to reveal my identity. Otherwise, I'm really afraid that the consequences will be unimaginable. β
"I Tangmen once got a secret news, when Hu Niangzi was kind-hearted, once took in an old woman, and this old woman is the last emperor of the Hu Dynasty the most favored child, Princess Ciqing, Hu name Charqing Timur; If you don't believe it, you can go to Huayue Tower to investigate it in person, and you can find out whether it is true or false. β
"A few days ago, I worked with Mo Shaoxia and Lou Lao to crack a murderer's lair on the ship, but in order to make the murderer lose his vigilance and did not tell you, and we occasionally learned that the 'mastermind behind the scenes' has a drug or secret technique that can control others, and the arson of the cabin was done by my subordinates who were accused of it, I think unless it is such a huge force as the beggar gang, I am afraid that I will not be able to understand this method-" Wu Zhang suddenly interjected.
"Actually, it is easy to understand that the mouse and Hu Niangzi were killed, after all, the beggar gang is a big white sect, who would be wary of the young gang leader of the beggar gang? Moreover, in order to prevent his true intentions from being exposed, Wang Hu killed the mouse, firstly, to prevent him from recognizing himself, and secondly, to confuse his vision," Wei Guang saw that this was a bit of a blunt way, after all, the bustard and the assassin were on the dark side even in the deep water of the rivers and lakes, and in terms of status and fame alone, I am afraid that even the emperor Lao'er did not have such great ability.
Lou Yuxiao's body was cold, true and false, false and true, even if there were some flaws? Everyone believed that it was true, and at this moment, what could they use to refute so much 'evidence'? The imperial court needed to weaken the beggar gang, the Tang Sect needed to eradicate the opponent, and even the people in the rivers and lakes on the ship needed a 'real' murderer to vent their feelings.
What is true? What is false? If everyone believes it, it is true, and if everyone does not believe it, it is false!
Tang Sect, Imperial Court, Water Bandits, such a big layout is definitely not something that a hairy kid like Wei Guang can do! And Fei Yue suddenly turned his head and smiled secretly at Lou Yuxiaoββ
It's him!!
If it was him!!
Even Wei Guang admired his uncle in his heart at this moment, and he still remembered what his uncle said that night: "You are the future master of the Tang Sect, and every decision you make in the future will affect the fortune of the Tang Sect;
Mo Shaoguan instinctively felt that something was wrong, the facts he knew were not like this, or rather, it was not entirely so! Lou Yuxiao's remnants of reason made him hold Mo Shaoguan to the death, stopping the excited and angry beggar gang, and he lost this game! There was nothing to say about losing! At this moment, no one had the ability to turn the tide, what he was doing now and what he could do was to save Wang Hu's life until he came ashore, if Wang Hu was killed by the angry people in the rivers and lakes, then even Tu Yong, even if it was Zhou Xun, he could only swallow this breath.
For a time, the city changed the king's flag, Zhou Qian closed the door, Wang Hu was locked in the deepest cell of the cabin, Wei Guang's uncle and nephew were beautiful for a while, and his prestige on the ship was increasing day by day!
After another day and night, the ship is about to arrive at Lishan, and a huge mountain shadow can be faintly seen in the dark night.
The cells of the Sand Bird Mansion were all prepared for traitors, dirty and smelly, the torture equipment was stained with blood, Wang Hu was lying unkempt on the cold ground, his hands and feet were tied with cow tendons, and his wrists were already tied purple.
Suddenly, three hidden weapons shot out from the darkness and shot at Wang Hu, Wang Hu's tiger eyes opened, and the wolf dodged.
"Huh?" a hoarse voice came from the darkness, "Although it is not as good as your genius brother, it is not bad, at this point you still have spirit, no wonder you can be accepted as an apprentice by Tu Yong." β
"Don't worry, your master will avenge you and deal with the Tang Sect-"
More than a dozen hidden weapons shot out from all directions, without any dead ends, Wang Hu's hands and feet were tied, and he could only close and wait for death.
A sword light was like moonlight in the dark, and more than a dozen sword flowers shook out as soon as the sword body turned, accurately knocking away the hidden weapon.
"Then the beggar gang was strangled by the imperial court and the Tang Sect, and the two were also greatly injured, and then the Red Lotus Sect took advantage of the situation to rise, I don't know if what I said is right?"
"The real mastermind behind the scenes, or rather, the Tangram girl......"
