Chapter 307: The Sea Sand Gang is going to do it?
Qin Shuhuai and Hua Shen glanced at each other in unison, and at the same time captured important information. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Seven or eight days ago, it was a day or two before the Zhao family was wiped out, and this Zhao Xinian must have smelled the smell of danger, so he changed his normal state and took the initiative to ask to join the White Lotus Sect. The reason is easy to understand, that is, he wants to be protected by the White Lotus Sect. After all, the power of the White Lotus Sect is not small, and no matter who wants to move the White Lotus Sect, it is not that simple.
But why did he suddenly abandon the plan and disappear the next day? There are only two reasons. For one, he could have been killed. Second, he may have found a better way to escape the enemy's pursuit.
If it is the first case, then the clue is broken. If it's the second scenario, then where will he go?
Qin Shuhuai and Hua Shen both thought of one person, Zheng Xinshan, the boss of the Haisha Gang. If Zheng Xinshan was willing to take in Zhao Xinian, then Zhao Xinian would naturally not join the White Lotus Sect - you must know that he himself did not like the White Lotus Sect.
Thinking of this, Qin Shuhuai asked, "Lord Youtan, is there a gang called the Haisha Gang in Ningbo Mansion?"
You Xinzhi nodded and said, "Returning to the sect leader, there is indeed such a gang. This gang mainly lives on merchants who go abroad for business, and they are similar to the Cao Gang, except that the Cao Gang protects the wharves on the canal, while the Haisha Gang mainly protects the safety of the ports of Ningbo Prefecture, ensuring that ships enter and leave the port in an orderly manner, and load and unload cargo. In addition, they are also responsible for the escort of goods by land, similar to darts, especially from Ningbo to Hangzhou, many businessmen who go to foreign business, after entering the port of Ningbo, will first transport them to Hangzhou, and then take the canal to send them to all parts of the country, so this line is particularly busy, and there are naturally many robbers on the road. But the Sand Gang were able to get through the road, so almost all the merchants would hand over their goods to them to escort. Over the years, the Haisha Gang has developed rapidly, and its strength in Ningbo and Hangzhou should not be underestimated. I've heard that they also have their own fleet, a fleet of more than a dozen large armed ships. ”
Qin Shuhuai frowned when he heard this, and said in his heart: Since the Haisha Gang also relies on foreign trade smuggling to eat, wouldn't their interests be the same as those of the Donglin Party? You must know that if the Donglin Party had not engaged in smuggling, they would not have been able to develop at all.
So, if the person who wants to kill Zhao Xinian is really the prefect of Ningbo, or the Donglin Party official who is bigger than the prefect of Ningbo, will the Haisha Gang really help Zhao Xinian?
In any case, Zhao Xinian is not safe at all now!
So, Qin Shuhuai immediately said, "Master Youtan, you immediately issue an edict in the name of this seat, and ask all the sect members in Ningbo Mansion to go all out to find Zhao Xinian's whereabouts, and report as soon as there is news! The point is that Zhao Xinian's former acquaintances, you must let the parishioners inquire in detail." Zhao Xinian is very dangerous now, this seat wants to protect him, understand?"
You Xinzhi immediately said, "Sect Master, don't worry, I'll go to give the order early tomorrow morning." As far as his subordinates knew, he had a good relationship with the Ningbo prefect and the Haisha Gang, and if he was in danger, he would probably go to them for help. There are our parishioners in Ningbo Mansion and Haisha Gang, as long as they ask them to investigate, eighty percent of them can find out. ”
Qin Shuhuai said, "Very good, but don't startle the snake, even if you want to investigate, you have to do it secretly." Whether it is the Ningbo prefect or the Haisha Gang, they may not want Zhao Xinian to live!"
You Xin was stunned, "They don't want Zhao Xinian to live......?" Why is that?"
"Just do what I say. In addition, tomorrow you will ask Yunfu in detail where he might go. ”
You Xinzhi put away his doubts, bowed down and bowed, "Your subordinates obey orders." ”
After leaving from You Xinzhi, Hua Shen said to Qin Shuhuai, "Brother Qin, when did you become the leader of the White Lotus Sect?"
Qin Shuhuai chuckled, "Then it's a long story, I can talk to you slowly when I have time." ”
"I guess there's another good story. Brother Qin, the White Lotus Sect is a wonderful move. Brother Qin took this step, and Hua Shen knew that Brother Qin was determined to be in the world. ”
Qin Shuhuai's eyes were dazzled, and when he saw that he seemed to be smiling, a strange light was revealed between his eyebrows.
Then he said, "Oh, how the White Lotus Sect is a good move, Brother Hua said." ”
Hua Shen said without thinking, "Although the strength of the White Lotus Sect is far inferior to that of the Demon Sect, there is one thing that even the Demon Sect cannot match, that is, their preaching and preaching have penetrated into all walks of life, three sects and nine streams. Even better, the identities of these followers are hidden, making it difficult for people to find out. And now, whether it is the imperial court yamen or the various factions in the rivers and lakes, there are people from the White Lotus Sect everywhere, so Brother Qin is in charge of the White Lotus Sect, which is equivalent to planting countless eyeliners in various parts of the Ming Dynasty, and every move in this world will not escape your eyes. ”
Qin Shuhuai smiled faintly and said, "That's a good point." ”
Hua Shen said meaningfully, "Brother Qin is proficient in strategizing and plotting ghost paths, and now he has six eyes and ears, and he knows the world in his chest, if I were Chongzhen, I must be restless now." ”
Qin Shuhuai laughed, "So you can't be Chongzhen." ”
Hua Shen also smiled, "I don't want to be Chongzhen either." ”
"Then do you want to be my eyes?" Qin Shuhuai said seemingly casually.
Hua Shen was stunned, and after being silent for a second, he replied casually, "Hua Mou's revenge has not been avenged, and I have distracting thoughts, I'm afraid I can't be an eye with peace of mind." ”
Qin Shuhuai smiled and stopped mentioning this topic.
said, "Let's go, let's go to the Haisha Gang first and see if we can find some useful clues." ”
Because when they came out, they inquired directly with You Xinzhi about the location of the helmsman of the Haisha Gang in detail, so the two of them found it quite smoothly, and it didn't take long for them to come to the helmsman of the Haisha Gang.
Under the cover of the night, the two quietly climbed over the wall and entered the hospital.
The yard was very large, and the two of them touched it for a while before finding Zheng Xinshan's bedroom. Hua Shen proposed to go to the roof to eavesdrop, Qin Shuhuai agreed, but he disliked Hua Shen's light skills were not good enough, and he was afraid of being discovered, so he let him stay outside and hide, and went to the roof alone.
With the light skill of stepping on the snow without a trace, he walked on the beam of the house almost silently, and ordinary masters would never hear it.
On the roof of Zheng Xinshan's bedroom, he listened to the tiles with his ears close to the tiles for a long time, and found that there was no sound inside, so he thought he was not there. So he walked to the study again, listened for a while, and sure enough, he heard Zheng Xinshan talking to someone.
"Lord Chen, please tell Lord Futai, although he can rest assured that this matter will be handled properly, and there will be no mistakes. ”
"With the words of Gang Master Zheng, Lord Futai and I are relieved. Oh, by the way, Lord Futai specially asked me to convey that this matter is very important, and Gang Master Zheng must deal with it as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night. ”
Zheng knows. By the way, this is Zheng's little heart to Lord Futai, please ask Lord Chen to transfer it on his behalf. ”
"Zheng Gang Master is polite. Then, I will take my leave. ”
"Master Chen walked slowly. ”
After listening to Qin Shuhuai's heart, could it be that what they said was dealing with Zhao Xinian's affairs? It's a pity that he couldn't come earlier, otherwise he would have known what they were talking about.
After Zheng Xinshan saw off the "Lord Chen", after a while, another person came in the room.
"Helper, according to your orders, everything is ready. ”
"Good. The prefect has already sent someone to urge, and this matter cannot be delayed any longer. ”
"Yes, my subordinates know. ”
"Tell him well, just say that you have wronged him, but we can't help it. ”
"Yes. ”
