Chapter 38: Serial Killing Scheme
"How do you ...... you know?"
Zhou Hu had a face of fear, he did lie just now, not wanting to involve the City Lord's Mansion.
Liu Wu Xie's words completely shattered his self-confidence, he didn't expect that he was being used by Qi En Shi, before he even mentioned the matter of borrowing money, Qi En Shi took the initiative to speak up and help him raise a sum of gold coins.
"It's very simple, Shi Baojun rarely leaves the barracks, much less comes to this shithole Canglan City, is a small Thousand Husbandman qualified to catch up with the Lord of a city? Obviously you're lying, Qi Enshi has a handle into your hands, and he doesn't dare to offend Shi Brojun."
"The only way, to kill someone with a borrowed knife, lure you to Qifeng Gorge, decapitate the Xu family guards, and then kill you with the help of my father-in-law's hand, even if the news of Shi Baojun being killed leaks out, it doesn't have the slightest relation to the City Lord's Mansion, and the Xu family is the culprit."
The first two times, they only robbed and didn't kill, the purpose was to make the Xu family pay attention.
Step by step lure, Xu family weapon workshop not open, Xu Yilin must be anxious, personally come to escort, and at this time, Wan family and Tian family found him, willing to spend 10 million gold coins, please Shi Baojun out of the way, one ring after another.
Zhou Hu and others killed the Xu family guards, Xu Yilin appeared, and then killed Shi Bajun, what a perfect plan.
Qi Enshi sitting in the position of city master, not willing to be coerced, Zhou Hu status is not as good as him, hanging Shi Baojun thousand husband's name, do not dare to deal with openly, had to rely on the Xu family, secretly manipulate everything.
Behind the scenes to push the black hand behind the scenes, it is the Lord of the city government.
Although not personally involved, after some analysis, as if they were there, every detail, as well as the content of the conversation between them, pushed the eight or nine.
"Good a Qi Enshi, I treat you like a brother, you even set me up, use others to kill me to silence me, back then you do nasty things, the old man for you to hide for more than twenty years, I did not expect you to turn the other cheek."
Zhou Hu instead couldn't hate Liu Wu Xie, all of this was manipulated by Qi En Shi inside, he was also the victimized.
"What did Qi Enshi do back then to have the handle fall into your hands."
Out of the blue, he asked, this handle, which might be useful in the future, could be used to coerce the City Lord's Office to be on the side of the Xu Family at a critical moment.
Mentioning this matter, the expression on Zhou Hu's face became incomparably hideous, both of his eyes were blinded, blood overflowing, his appearance looked gruesome.
"Twenty-five years ago, we went out on a mission together, when we passed by a small town, we met a beautiful woman by chance, who knows that Qi Enshi was beastly, after meeting this woman, he became beastly and raped . . killed, and in order to kill and silence her, slaughtered the entire town's inhabitants, a full ten thousand people, disguised as a demonic beast attack."
Mentioning this matter, Zhou Hu hated him so much that he gnashed his teeth, and Qi Enshi begged him for several days, willing to take out a large amount of gold coins to plug Zhou Hu's mouth.
In the following years, at every interval, Qi Enshi would take out some gold coins to supply Zhou Hu to squander.
In a flash a few years past, Qi Enshi's talent was strangely high, and he had already grown from a small soldier to the lord of a city, Zhou Hu knew that his status was inferior to him, and there was no need to rehash old scores when things had gone so long in the past.
The other day in the imperial city, he unauthorized misappropriation of stone broken army funds, lost 10 million gold coins, these gold coins used in military expenses, the hole once not filled, the result can be imagined, military justice, beheading.
Finally thought of Qi Enshi, he is the lord of a city, surely rich, first ask him to borrow ten million gold coins, plug the hole, then think of other ways.
"Based on your one-sided words alone, even if you say it, Qi Enshi can completely come to a dead denial, after all, things have passed for so many years, corpses and bones do not exist, death is not a proof."
Liu Wu Xie continued to pursue the question, more than twenty years have passed, what happened in the town back then, how many people can remember.
"Back then, I deliberately left a mind, the town's dossier, I copied away a copy, this time came to Canglan City, mentioning the dossier, Qi Enshi began to disbelieve, about the town of all the information, all wiped out, when I took out the first copy of the dossier, he turned out to be surprisingly calm, but instead comforted me, the lack of holes he helped to fill in, so it's like that, he's killing people with a borrowed knife ."
Zhou Hu was in a rage, since the beginning, he had been fooled by Qi Enshi.
"Where is the dossier hidden now?"
Finding the dossier was the same as controlling Qi Enshi, grabbing him by the handle, and obediently and honestly listening to him in the future.
"If I say it, can you let me live?"
Zhou Hu's empty eyes, relying on his senses, gazed at Liu Wu Xie.
"Can't!"
The matter of beheading Shi Baojun, must not be leaked out, this answer, let Zhou Hu was stunned, and then revealed a bitter smile, in other people's place, I am afraid that they will also do the same thing, cut off the root and branch, in order to eliminate the future trouble forever.
"I can promise you, tell the location where the dossier is stored, but you also have to promise me a condition, if not, I immediately bite my tongue and kill myself, you never want to get this dossier."
Zhou Hu was disheartened, he was now in this state, even if he was let go, where could he go, losing his cultivation and blindness, he was not even as good as a waste.
"Say it, what conditions?"
Deacon Qi had already left, there were too many secrets involved next, he stood at a distance, keeping a lookout for them so that it wouldn't leak out.
"Help me kill Qi Enshi and take revenge for me."
The veins on Zhou Hu's face came out one by one, this was all a plot by that scumbag Qi Enshi.
"I can't promise you completely, but I will try my best, you can understand what I mean."
Liu Wu Xie did not explicitly promise, Zhou Hu was not stupid, and from his mouth, he heard the implication that the City Lord's Mansion had already gotten into this mess, and wanting to pull out of it was obviously impossible.
Sooner or later with the Xu family, there is a war, who lives and who dies, or unknown.
Xu family purple gold vein crisis lifted, means that the Wan family and the Tian family's plan to fail, Shi Baojun life and death whereabouts is unknown, Qi Enshi must be like sitting on pins and needles, want to do everything possible to figure out the reason, to find Zhou Hu said the hidden dossier place, will be destroyed.
The breakthrough is still the Xu family, Shi Baojun mysterious disappearance, only the Xu family is the most clear, and Qi Enshi dare not come openly, secretly will use all means to destroy the Xu family.
"Your strength, put into the Imperial City, are one of the best, Canglan City sooner or later can not trap you, I believe you can wipe out Qi Enshi, I brought three volumes, hidden in the Yuelai Inn Ding courtyard, after entering the door, under the tenth brick, open it can be seen, the remaining volumes, hidden in the Imperial City in the courtyard of one of my concubines."
Zhou Hu told Liu Wu Xie about the two places to hide the scrolls, and a trace of depression spread on his face.
"Have a good journey!"
The short sword was sheathed, Zhou Hu's body dried up a little, and his Spirit Washing Realm body possessed a large amount of essence.
Transforming into a human skin, a storage bag fell to the ground, a strong bulge came from the dantian, getting closer and closer to the third degree of innate, one step away.
The rest was handed over to Deacon Chi, ensuring that not a single trace of the fight was left at the scene.
All fifteen guards were gathered in one place, looking at Liu Wu Xie with a face of awe, there was still a trace of fear in the depths of their eyes.
"What happened today, I don't want you guys to leak out a single word, let me know who passed it out, don't blame me for being ruthless and merciless."
As soon as Liu Wu Xie's words fell, a terrifying killing aura enveloped the sixteen of them, including Deacon Qi.
The scene of forcing Zhou Hu just now, everyone saw it in their eyes, the T'ang Spirit Cleansing Realm could only hold on for five breaths, when used on them, a single breath could kill them in pain.
"Don't worry auntie, we definitely won't leak out a single word."
Deacon Chi patted his chest and assured that the fifteen guards collectively guaranteed that they would never divulge today's matter.
In their hearts, they knew better than anyone else that beheading Shi Brejun was a great crime, and they would all lose their heads if it was spread out, unless they were fools to leak it out.
The team continued on their way, leaving the Qifeng Gorge, basically safe, no other conditions were encountered on the way, half a day later they saw the exit of the Sunset Mountain Range.
"Auntie, you're not going back with us?"
Deacon Chi asked, another half a day to return to Canglan City, why isn't Auntie going back.
"I'm going to go to the ore vein, the Wan family and the Tian family still have experts coming, they want to seize the purple gold ore vein, you guys transport the ore back to the weapon workshop as soon as possible."
After Liu Wu Xie finished speaking, he plunged headlong into the Sunset Mountain Range and hurried towards the purple gold vein, hoping that there would be no changes.
Tian Family!
"Family Master, Xu Yilin did not leave Canglan City, he is still guarding the Xu Family and patrols the five Weaponry Workshops every day."
The scouts had been gathering around the Xu Family for the past few days, they could see every move of the Xu Family, Xu Yilin went out every morning and came back at night.
"Could they really bear to watch the Arms Workshop close down."
Tian Qisha's face was gloomy, for the sake of this plan, they hadn't put much thought into it, the purpose was to lure Xu Yilin away from Canglan City, and with the help of his hands, exterminate Shi Baojun, and they would take advantage of the opportunity to overrun the Xu Family's industry in Canglan City.
"Family Master, it's not good, the Xu Family has shipped back ten carloads of Purple Gold Ore, and has already entered the city!"
A scout ran in quickly, panting, and was the first to send the news back.
"Impossible, could it be that they failed?" Tian Qisha muttered, "You guys continue to observe the Xu family's every move, I'll go to the Wan family."
After saying that, he got up and left the great hall, heading straight to the Wan family.
The words were split into two!
Liu Wu Xie returned to the Sunset Mountain Range and sped up his horse, heading straight to the Xu Family's purple gold vein, almost a day and a half away.
The dozens of experts that came in from the Tian Family had been wandering around the Sunset Mountain Range for a day, and there was still no whereabouts of Liu Wu Xie, and they were so angry that they were wailing.
Not only were there Tian Clan experts in this team, there were also Wan Clan experts.
"Elder, where did this brat run off to, the outskirts of the Sunset Mountain Range, we've almost searched all over, there's no trace of him."
The Tian Clan disciples lit a campfire and set up camp, searching for a day with no clue.
"There's no rush, this brat can't run away."
The Tian Family Elder walked into the camp tent and rested on his knees, while the other disciples patrolled around to avoid being attacked by Xuan Beasts.
A black silhouette, silently approached, a sinister smile on the corner of his mouth.
"You guys want to kill me, you're still a little too young."
Yesterday when he came in, Liu Wu Xie knew that someone was following him and deliberately pretended not to know, after solving the matter of delivering goods, it was time to solve them next.
The bonfire made a crackling sound, in the silent night, it seemed particularly harsh.
A patrolling disciple, was about to turn around, when suddenly his neck was cold.
