Squeak.
The door shaft turned inside the door frame, and the door of the martial arts hall was slowly opened by a bean bag.
"Sister Doubao."
Jia Youcai, who was supporting his mother, greeted him, and then turned around and said respectfully, "Master Mu, my lord."
In the absence of outsiders, Jia Youcai has always called Jason Mu Ye, and only when there are outsiders will he officially call him the owner of the museum.
As for the appearance of Li Deshang?
Jia Youcai is not surprised.
Jia Youcai could recognize the carriage parked outside the door at a glance.
"There was a rat at home, and I had to be on duty at night. I really can't do it. I can only ask sister Doubao and Master Mu to help me take care of my old lady.
Jia Youcai said, pleading in his eyes.
"A mouse?"
"That can't be underestimated."
"Jia Youcai, after you are on duty tonight, take some people to see it."
Li Deshang lied for his subordinates.
The chief officer of the mountain city really values Jia Youcai very much now.
Although Jia Youcai usually seems unreliable, he has come forward several times at critical moments, enough to make Li Deshang understand that this is a person he can rely on, and even his confidant.
Therefore, he not only promoted Jia Youcai exceptionally, but also urged Jia Youcai to learn martial arts.
At Jia Youcai's age, what height Xuewu wants to achieve is nonsense. There is no ‘big medicine’ to change the physique. It is estimated that training into ‘muscles’ is considered a good talent.
However, being able to become a warrior is better than nothing.
"Yes, my lord."
Jia Youcai arched with one hand.
Then, he looked at Jason again.
Jason's gaze swept past Pu Dao whose blood stains had not yet been completely removed, and then he sensed it with a sense of death.
Just killed someone?
Or two?
"Dou Bao, go and arrange the old lady."
Jason ordered.
"Mother, come with me."
Dou Bao nodded, and helped Li to walk towards the martial arts hall.
Watching his old mother enter the martial arts gym, Jia Youcai gratefully bowed to Jason and Li Deshang.
"Don't say any kind words yet."
"what happened?"
Li Deshang waved his hand, lowered his voice and asked.
"It's like this..."
Jia Youcai relayed it immediately.
When the voice fell, Li Deshang's face became serious.
"Is it the remnant of the'death teaching'?"
"still is……"
"The original six big households in the city?"
The voice of the chief officer of the mountain city was low and cold.
Whether it is the former or the latter, Li Deshang is already an enemy.
The kind that never dies.
He hadn't thought of rewarding him originally, but he didn't expect these people to come out so quickly and dare to attack his people.
Jason also frowned slightly.
He is now basically certain that the thing that Jia Youcai's old lady was almost kidnapped should have been done by the original six big households of'Shancheng', because, it was a coincidence that he just rejected the intercession of Xu Dashan from Hongxiangfang. Jia Youcai's old lady almost had an accident at night, and Jia Youcai was still involved in the whole process.
just……
Are these big players too courageous?
Or is there any support?
Jason raised his eyes and looked at Li Deshang, who happened to be also looking at Jason.
With a pair of eyes, the two understood each other's thoughts.
"I'll go back and order the soldiers and surround the houses of those big households first."
"Jia Youcai, you sent a team of people straight to the lame Li and arrested them for me to live."
Li Deshang didn't conceal it, and said directly.
"Yes, my lord."
Jia Youcai arched his hand and walked to the carriage.
A few seconds later, the yaman who had driven the car and several arresters who acted as bodyguards ran out of Wuguan Street.
Looking at the leaving subordinates, Li Deshang turned and bowed to Jason.
"If it happens later, I will rely on Brother Mu again."
"Thank you Brother Mu really."
"Brother Yu originally didn't want to say such a thing, but he didn't say it and felt that he didn't know how to do it, so Brother Yu said it again."
Li Deshang said and bowed again.
Li Deshang knew what happened in the martial arts hall today.
He was grateful.
Because of this, I feel more guilty.
Because, he thought he didn't help Jason, but Jason helped him twice.
Just like this moment.
The guilt and gratitude in this mountain city chief's heart were intertwined, making him wonder what to do.
I wanted to bury the kindness in my heart.
But now, it's not vomiting.
"After all, invite me to dinner."
Jason said so.
At the last moment, I was still conflicted. After hearing such words, Li Deshang immediately nodded and said, "No problem, even if I sell iron, I will invite Brother Mu to dinner."
After speaking, Li Deshang felt a pain on his face.
Inviting him, Brother Mu, to dinner is really painful.
At least his small vault can't be kept.
Some of these things that have been quietly collected must also be sold.
However, he does not regret it.
Even if he was eaten to wash the dishes in Zuixianlou, he did not regret it.
This in itself is what he owes his brother Mu.
Looking at Li Deshang with a painful face, Jason smiled.
The reason why he is willing to continue to cooperate with Li Deshang, except for Li Deshang's abide by his duty, is this kind of character-as long as he owes someone else, Li Deshang will definitely pay it back, even if it is painful to the heart.
Is there anything better than a bad partner?
Naturally, the person who owes it back twice.
Li Deshang is such a person.
"Brother Gou Sheng, would you like to visit Hongxiangfang with me?"
Jason invited.
"of course."
Li Deshang smiled.
Although the immediate matter cannot be determined whether it is related to Hongxiangfang, since the old owner of Hongxiangfang has acted as a lobbyist, the other party may know about this matter.
The carriage stayed in place.
Jason and Li Deshang walked side by side.
Jia Youcai wiped Pu Dao clean and followed behind.
Hongxiangfang is also on Wuguan Street. It doesn't take much time to walk from Mushiwuguan to Hongxiangfang.
Moreover, it seems that it was because Xu Dashan came back today. The trading of the Hongxiangfang Secret Market did not open. At this time, outside the lantern in front of the door, there was only a little candlelight inside.
Bang Bang, Bang Bang!
Jia Youcai knocked on the door and reported his identity.
After a while, Xu Dashan greeted him personally.
Taking the three of Jason into the living room, tea and cakes were quickly brought up.
"Master Li, Master Mu, don't you know who the two are visiting late at night?"
Xu Dashan asked.
His gaze kept rolling on Li Deshang and Jason, guessing their intentions.
Neither Jason nor Li Deshang spoke, the latter just said a little.
"Jia Youcai, tell Mr. Xu what just happened."
Jia Youcai immediately stood up and preached one to five to ten.
Halfway through Jia Youcai's talk, a cold sweat broke out on Xu Dashan's back.
Bastard!
Damn it!
The old club cursed in his heart.
He just wondered a lot about what it is that deserves Jason and Li Deshang to come to him.
However, I did not expect such a thing at all.
He never thought that the six big households in the city who begged him to come forward would do such a thing, but at this time, Xu Dashan could no longer take care of that much.
"Sorry, Jia catches his head."
Xu Dashan first bowed at Jia Youcai, then bowed at Li Deshang, and said, "Master Li atones for sin, aging has nothing to do with this matter."
Jia Youcai dodged to the side, avoiding such a salute.
He is someone who has an old mother, and a person about the same age as his old mother will give him a courtesy, and he will never accept it.
He is not afraid of losing his life.
I'm afraid that my old lady will be implicated.
Li Deshang sat there without moving.
He accepted Xu Dashan's salute as the chief officer of the'Mountain City'.
"Then tell me the ins and outs of this matter."
Li Deshang sat there, looking at Xu Dashan.
"Because the old man has received some news before, saying that the'death teaching' has recently made a fuss and is going to temporarily take refuge in the state capital. Then, when you come back, you will clear the world. The old man agrees with this, but the six major households in the city used to He has a good relationship with the old man, and there are also a few people who are well-informed. When he came to beg, he moved with compassion and couldn't help but mention to the museum master."
"This is how the whole thing went. The old man was just soft-hearted for a while, and there was absolutely no miserable interests in it, and no promises."
Xu Dashan said righteously.
Li Deshang looked at Xu Dashan, and basically didn't believe a word about the words of the old Hongxiangfang boss.
What compassion.
What a moment of softness.
Nothing is profitable.
It should be the six major households in the city that had promised great benefits, and then, the old owner of Hongxiangfang couldn't help but take a risk.
Moreover, the other party is quite cautious.
Did not look for him, but looked for his Mu brother.
Looking for him, once you refuse, there is no room for reversal.
Brother Mu who looked for him, even if he was rejected, he still had to bid.
Really good old man.
Work can be called impervious.
It’s just tonight...
Li Deshang's palm lightly hit the armrest of the back of the chair, his eyes fixed on Xu Dashan.
"Lao Xu is completely unaware of the matter of Jia Hutou and Jia Hutou's mother."
"This should be the self-determination of those big players. They want to get back what they lost, but they dare not do too much, so... they chose Jia's head as the target."
Xu Dashan said that he apologized again and Chong Jia Youcai bowed.
Jia Youcai avoided again.
Xu Dashan wanted to worship again, but was interrupted by Li Deshang.
The chief officer of the'Mountain City' sneered, and counted: "Don't dare to do too much? It's just that the chief officer expects to be difficult to start in the yamen, and Brother Mu has a high martial arts, they dare not start at all. I chose Jia Youcai, hey!"
Speaking of this, Li Deshang sneered again.
In my heart, murderous intent suddenly arises.
He originally planned to let the rest of the big family in the city make a living, but now it seems that he is still softened.
The weeds cannot be burned, and the spring breeze blows again!
It must be done!
Li Deshang clenched his fist in his sleeve and made a secret decision in his heart.
Xu Dashan looked at Li Deshang. Although he did not see the clenched fists under the sleeves, he could see the coldness flashing in Li Deshang's eyes. He suddenly sighed inwardly.
He knew that the six major households in the city were really finished this time.
If there was a silver lining before, now it is really a dead end.
‘Li Deshang is so murderous! ’
‘Why didn’t you see it before? ’
‘Clearly a scholar. ’
Just as Xu Dashan sighed, Jason asked suddenly, who had not spoken.
"'Longshengjiao' makes a lot of noise?"
"Yes, the'death teaching' is not only in the'mountain city', but there are also believers in the prefecture, and it is even rumored to be in the northern capital and the capital of Shu."
"They organize secretly and unify their secrets. It is difficult for outsiders to intervene. Even if they want to conduct a secret investigation, it is also difficult. The empire has sent many spies, but they have never returned."
"Especially the altar masters of the various state capitals, each of them is a powerful generation of martial arts."
"And, there is..."
Xu Dashan, who had been happy, suddenly stuttered.
"What else?"
Li Deshang asked.
Xu Dashan didn't speak immediately, but got up and closed the door of the hall. Then he returned to the three of them, lowered his voice and said, "There is also a "God Envoy"!"
"Envoy?"
Li Deshang heard this term for the first time.
Jia Youcai was even more at a loss. He didn't even know the existence of the "Death Sect" in the prefecture. He only thought that the "Death Sect" was a cult power that had emerged near the'Mountain City.'
But Jason looked indifferent.
Even faintly expecting.
After all, the taste of [Blood Mist Evil Gas Ball] is still good.
"Yes, divine envoys, there is no trace in the rumors, they can take human lives without knowing it-some people have said that the reason why all the spies sent by the empire have disappeared because of these divine envoys! "
Xu Dashan said in a voice that only a few people could hear.
"These ones?"
"More than one envoy?"
Li Deshang grasped the key words.
"Correct!"
"According to some information collected by our Hongxiangfang, there are at least four envoys of the'Death Teaching'. They are just collected. As for whether there are more, I am not sure."
Xu Dashan said truthfully.
Moreover, before Li Deshang asked, he added.
"These four divine envoys are three men and one woman. The exact age cannot be confirmed, but they are all cruel and cruel."
"Except for the woman who didn't specifically show her strength, one of the three male divine envoys can breathe flames and melt gold and iron, and the other is the frost flying between the fists and feet, and the living person instantly turns into frost. The remaining one is the most difficult one. Not only is it fascinating, but also capable of conquering people and killing people invisible."
"The four have never appeared at the same time."
"But every time only one person was sent out, it also stirred up a lot of wind and rain, making people frightened."
As Xu Dashan spoke, Li Deshang frowned.
He has never heard of any gods.
But what Xu Dashan said before him was a little weird to him.
Breathing flames, melting gold and iron.
Between fists and feet, frost flies, and living people freeze.
There are also soul-stirring, invisible murder.
This is what the rumored ‘skin-training’ masters cannot do, right?
Perhaps in the legend, the warrior can reach a higher degree?
But not possible?
Is there such a master in "Mangshengjiao"?
Li Deshang thought from the bottom of his heart, his face became serious again.
He thought he had overestimated the "death teaching", but he underestimated it unexpectedly.
‘You must go to the prefectural government office again. ’
‘Strictly guard against it! ’
Li Deshang secretly said in his heart.
Jason was suddenly surprised that the divine envoy with the [Blood Mist Evil Ball] before should be the most difficult one among the so-called three male divine envoys.
‘I don’t know what ‘food’ will be in the remaining three envoys. ’
Jason guessed the taste of the food.
His gaze was looking outside the hall.
Step on, step on.
There was a rapid running sound, and a catcher ran in.
"My lord, Boss, Master Mu, the big thing is not good!"
"Dead, all dead!"
"And, there is..."
The arrest quickly said with a cry.
The voice stammered, I couldn't say enough, obviously he was frightened.
After making room, all four of you stood up.
"Calm down, what happened?"
Jia Youcai said to his subordinates.
"Boss, your lord made all the six houses we were surrounding die!"
"And, there is..."
"You come with me and you will know at a glance."
Catching a quick glance at Jason in horror, and then, completely afraid to speak, just lead the way.
Jason was the first to follow.
There was no malice or death in the hunter's body, but his heart was beating extremely fast, coupled with the panic on his face and the gaze he had just looked at, it was enough to show that the other party saw something terrible.
Moreover, this thing is still related to him.
Li Deshang and Jia Youcai followed without hesitation.
Xu Dashan hesitated for a while before following up.
He didn't want to go.
However, Xu Dashan knows very well that now he has been involved.
Going can still take the initiative.
If you don't do anything and just wait here, it will be a real passivity.
As a fairly successful businessman, Xu Dashan knew too well the importance of taking the initiative.
Raised his hand and waved towards his entourage.
Immediately, a dozen strong men with sticks walked out and were divided into two teams, one team was guarding Hongxiangfang, and the other team followed Xu Dashan.
Li Deshang and Jia Youcai glanced at them, but said nothing.
What does Hongxiangfang do, they both know you.
These manpowers are justified.
As for bringing some?
Can understand.
They didn't worry about Mubai's presence anyway.
Moreover, they are not nobody.
A team of twenty-man muskets came out of Martial Hall Street and followed behind the carriage. The men with clubs followed better. In front was a team of five men holding torches high.
Jia Youcai drove, with Jason, Li Deshang and Xu Dashan sitting in the car.
There was no obstacle all the way~EbookFREE.me~ and the group came to the residence of the big family Zhang family in the city.
Quick arrests and government officials surrounded this place one after another.
When he saw Jason walking down from the carriage, his eyes flashed with horror just like the previous catch.
Jason frowned.
Without stopping, he walked straight towards the mansion.
Corpse!
From the cloister to the hall, there are corpses all the way!
The body that was blown up abruptly!
And on the wall next to the Chuhua Gate of the Second Entrance Courtyard, there are five big characters written in blood
Murderer, Mu Bai!
