Chapter 821
Li Qiufeng didn't expect Hu Kun and Huang Chong to talk like this, and he couldn't help but be shocked. The reason why there was such a scene in Xiuwu County tonight was because Hu Yiyue died in the city, and Hu Kun was sad that his beloved son died, so he rushed into the city with three thousand iron horsemen to kill Huang Chong to vent his anger. And when everyone was plotting in the house, Hu Kun was also aggressive, sneering at Huang Chong, and even cursing, which can be said to be ruthless. Unexpectedly, at this moment, the two of them are talking like this, they are clearly a pair of close friends, where can they be enemies?
When Li Qiufeng was puzzled, he heard Huang Chong say: "Where did the brother come from." The harder you scolded me, the happier they became. If you can stab me in the body, they will be less suspicious. Why do you say that the brothers of the Nie family can rest assured that you and I will stay? It is because the old brother is so aggressive and bent on killing me that the brothers of the Nie family do not doubt that he has him. They intend to keep you and me, just hoping that we will fight. If you understand that in the morning, we will become two corpses, and I am afraid that we will fall into their arms. ”
Hu Kun said: "You are joking. If I stab you with a knife, I might as well kill the two bad breeds of the Nie family first. Lao Huang, now that we have soldiers and generals, it is not difficult to destroy the Nie family and the Lu family. Why do you have to endure it any longer?! Over the years, I've had enough of the two bad breeds of the Nie family. Now that the Xu family is gone, do we still want the Nie family to ride on our heads and point fingers, and we can't do anything?"
The more Li Qiufeng listened, the more frightened he became, and he wanted to hear how Huang Chong answered. Unexpectedly, after Hu Kun finished speaking, Huang Chong never answered. After a while, Hu Kun said in a low voice: "My brother's wisdom is ten times better than mine, because I have been obedient to my brother's words all these years. In the past, you always said that the enemy was current, and you couldn't turn your face with the Nie family brothers. Now that the Xu family has been destroyed, the brothers of the Nie family have begun to cut us off. If we still endure it, I'm afraid that we will be poisoned by the Nie family within a few days, and at that time, it will be too late to regret it!"
His voice fell, but he heard Huang Chong say: "Although the brothers of the Nie family are ruthless, they can't get the key in our hands, and they won't attack us." We can't get the keys in the hands of the Nie family and the Lu family, but we can't tear the skin with them. The key to the Hua family must have fallen into the hands of the Nie family, and Lao Han Shiyou** was also coerced by Ji Dingzhong. We can only be cautious at the moment and see what Ji Dingzhong is thinking. Fortunately, the old man was smart, and this time he brought three thousand iron horses. Otherwise, the Nie brothers have no scruples and can do anything. ”
Hu Kun said: "According to the elder brother, the Wuji Temple of Yuntai Mountain was destroyed, and so many martial artists from the rivers and lakes gathered in Xiuwu County, are the brothers of the Nie family making trouble behind their backs?"
Huang Chong sighed and said, "At the moment, I can't guess what the connection between these things is. If it is said that the brothers of the Nie family did these things, what is their purpose? It stands to reason that after destroying the Xu family, Ji Dingzhong wants to get rid of you and me, and the best way is not to alarm anyone, or to arrest the two of us and force us to hand over the key. Either we will take you and my wife and children hostage, and coerce us into handing over the keys. Wujiguan, Xiaoyaoguan and Kongming Temple are martial arts gangs, and the Nie brothers just want to swallow that treasure alone, and they have never been involved in the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and there is absolutely no reason to kill people and set fires. It's so weird, I can't figure it out even if I break my head. ”
After Huang Chong finished speaking, Hu Kun didn't speak for a while. After a long time, he sighed and said: "Right now, the city is full of dangers, I don't dare to stay in the city, lest I be assassinated by the Nie brothers." Fang Cai Ji Dingzhong asked me to stay in the army and wait for his orders. I just took the opportunity to go out of the city, but not for his orders, but for your brother's orders. As long as you give an order, my three thousand iron horsemen can set foot in Xiuwu County, and none of the Nie brothers and their comrades can escape. ”
When he said this, he paused slightly, and then continued: "Lao Cai, a white-eyed wolf who can't be fed, has been eyebrowning with the Nie family brothers for many years, and now he has finally jumped out. Brother don't be indignant about this traitor. After we destroy the Nie family, Cai Xiao will definitely not be able to escape. ”
Huang Chong said in a deep voice: "The Cai family has not really invested in the Huang family since more than a hundred years ago, they have always catered to the Nie family, otherwise the Nie family would not have let them leave Fengmen Village, and gave them a large sum of silver. Without the support of the Nie family, with the skills of those people of the Cai family, how could they have created such a big family business in Shanxi? In the past few decades, they have secretly obeyed the orders of the Nie family, and they are only superficial perfunctory to the Huang family. It was Cai Xiao who stood on the side of the Nie family today and turned against me, but I didn't care. It's just that I can't figure out who killed Cai Jing. It stands to reason that with Ji Dingzhong's wisdom, even if he wants Cai Xiao to openly turn his face with me, he will never come up with such a stupid way, kill Cai Jing's straw bag, blame me, and let Cai Xiao and me openly turn their faces. Lao Cai is a little sensible, but he will never believe such a stupid way to blame others. ”
Hu Kun smiled and said, "Ji Dingzhong is not stupid, but Zhang Baixing is a big idiot! After the Xu family was destroyed, he couldn't help but want to attack us." This person has always been by your side and knows Cai Jing's whereabouts. Maybe this idiot made his own decision, sent someone to kill Cai Jing, blamed the elder brother, and wanted to force the Cai family to completely break with the Huang family, so that he could reap the benefits of the fisherman. Ji Dingzhong learned about this afterwards, but Cai Jing was dead, and he could only push the boat down the river. ”
Huang Chongdao: "Maybe it's really as my brother guessed, it was Zhang Baixing's hand." But I can't take care of it too much at the moment, let's take the opportunity to find the murderer first, and let's wait and see what happens. The elder brother must stick to the barracks and not leave easily, in case the Nie brothers jump over the wall in a hurry and poison the elder brother. You can rest assured that the affairs in the city can rest assured, I have my own way to deal with the Nie family brothers. ”
The two said a few more words, and Hu Kun said goodbye and left. Although Li Qiufeng knew that Huang Chong didn't understand martial arts, he was lying on the roof, only to feel a chill surging all over his body, and he didn't dare to move. It wasn't until there was a sound of the door closing under him, and he waited for half a pillar of incense, then he jumped lightly into the courtyard, jumped out from the back wall, avoided the Shi Jiadao and Lei Fist disciples who were patrolling near the left side of the county ya, and went straight back to the City God Temple.
When he arrived in front of the City God Temple, he saw the monk Xuanji guarding there. As soon as he saw Li Qiufeng turn back, the monk Xuanji stepped forward and was about to speak, but Li Qiufeng waved his hand at him, lowered his voice and said, "Let's go to the temple and talk." ”
The Xuanji monk was stunned for a moment, and said, "But what about these corpses?"
Li Qiufeng said: "Don't worry about the corpses, after dawn, if there are pilgrims who come to offer incense, and see these corpses, they will naturally go to the yamen to report to the official." It's just that these hidden weapons coated with poison will be brought back to the temple first, and then we will burn them after dawn. ”
The two of them had made a decision, Li Qiufeng tore off a large piece of clothing from a corpse, wrapped the cross-shaped hidden weapon that the Xuanji monk had gathered together, and then took the Xuanji monk to quietly jump into the City God Temple, and returned to his residence. Only then did Li Qiufeng briefly say what he had just heard. After hearing this, the monk was also shocked. He pondered for a long time, and then said in a trembling voice: "I can't imagine that this small Xiuwu county still hides so many secrets. ”
Li Qiufeng smiled bitterly and said, "Just as the master said. These people are acting strangely, and they don't know what they want to do. It's just a big mess, I'm afraid it's just around the corner. Ji Ding's middle people are deceitful, and they are all ruthless. They are fighting, and it is difficult to predict who will win and who will lose. What's more, at present, the Japanese have also infiltrated Xiuwu County, but I am afraid that it is also related to Ji Ding. One thing after another is so chaotic that I really can't figure out what the connection is. ”
The two discussed for a long time, but they didn't have a clue at all. At this time, it was the second watch, and the two of them tossed for most of the night, and they were a little tired, so they had to rest first. Li Qiufeng wanted to give up the bed to the Xuanji monk, but the Xuanji monk insisted on not accepting it, claiming that he was not used to sleeping in bed every day in meditation. Li Qiufeng had no choice, so he had to put a few wooden stools in one place and ask the monk Xuanji to lie on the wooden benches to rest.
Early the next morning, as soon as the two got up, Miaozhu knocked on the door and asked to see them. When he saw that there was an extra monk in the house, Miao Zhu was startled, but he didn't dare to ask more, and said to Li Qiufeng in a trembling voice: "Master Li, something big happened outside! Overnight, seven people died at the temple gate. Now that the old men of the county government have arrived outside the temple, Master Li, what do you think?"
