The sound was leisurely and natural, and passed clearly to the ears of everyone in the field. Xue Poye stood up, made a fist with his right hand, and looked towards the sound, only to see that the sound was coming from outside the door.
The three hall masters immediately took action and stood still, staring at the closed door.
There was a "quacking" sound, and the originally closed door slowly opened, and Uncle Shu was seen standing in front of the door with a smile, looking at the few people in the room who were noisy, picked up the wine gourd, took a sip of wine, and said with a smile:
"Is there a spy among you?"
Xue Poye concentrated on guarding, touched his nose and smiled lightly: "Uncle Shu, we are discussing things here, and you entered without permission, did you break the rules? You are a senior, we respect you, you keep saying that between us
There are spies, but I don’t know what it means?”
"Hey!" Uncle Shu sighed: "A big disaster is coming, but you young people don't know it. It's so sad!"
"A big disaster is coming?" Xue Poye smiled faintly and said slowly: "Uncle Shu, where do you start talking about a big disaster coming? You stay in the tower all day long, how do you know whether misfortune comes or blessing comes?"
The green lady also frowned, holding a silver needle in her hand, staring at Uncle Shu, and said softly: "Uncle Shu, you have always been steady, but today... what happened today?"
Uncle Shu shook his head and walked slowly into the hall. His old but extremely sharp eyes swept over everyone present one by one, and finally stopped on Xue Poye's face, and said slowly: "The surrounding area of Hongyan Pagoda has been surrounded by at least
Sixteen top-notch execution hall and exhibition hall masters are surrounding you!"
The four people were shocked, including Xue Poye, and their expressions changed.
It came really fast.
Xue Poye closed his eyes, took a deep breath, stared at Uncle Shu and said: "How do you know that the people surrounding Hongyan Pagoda are people from the Punishment Hall and the War Hall? How are you sure they are not from the imperial court?"
Uncle Shu walked to an empty chair and sat down, and said leisurely: "In this world, I have gone through sixty-one summers and colds. If a person lives for such a long time and can still live well, there will always be some problems.
It’s a matter of skill.”
"I believe it!" Xue Poye sat down on the chair opposite Uncle Shu, without even looking at the three hall masters under him, he squinted and said: "Uncle Shu, now that a powerful enemy is attacking, what do you think should be done?
?You are well-informed. We are all juniors and we should listen to your orders."
Uncle Shu laughed and said: "Master, you are so eloquent. I should be happy to show such respect to an old man like me. But I have to ask, who brought this group of besieging people here? This Hongyan Pagoda."
It is an extremely secretive place, and it is impossible for outsiders to know about it. If they can find it, maybe there is a spy here?"
Xue Poye remained calm, stared at Uncle Shu, and asked leisurely: "Uncle Shu, do you mean that one of the four of us is a spy?"
Uncle Shu laughed, drank wine, and said nothing.
The three hall masters all frowned slightly and couldn't help but look at the others. In the minds of the three of them, if there were really people being hunted and killed by the execution hall outside, and they could find this place, then there would naturally be a traitor.
"Uncle Shu, you have a good eye for fire. In your opinion, who among the four of us is the spy?" Xue Poye asked, touching his nose.
Uncle Shu stared at Qian Hong and said with a smile: "Master Qian of the Sunflower Child is in charge of the affairs of the Hangzhou sub-rudder. If the people of the Xingtang want to contact the Hangzhou sub-rudder, I am afraid they have to start with him. Do you think he is possible?"
Is he a spy?"
Xue Poye didn't even look at Qian Hong, but stared at Uncle Shu, and said with a faint smile: "Although Hall Master Qian is a little impulsive, he is strong-willed and values love and righteousness. He is the leader of my Hangzhou branch.
Of course he won't be a good man."
The corners of Qian Hong's eyes twitched, he turned his head and glanced at Xue Poye, his eyes full of gratitude.
Uncle Shu chuckled, looked at the Green Lady and said: "A woman always has many secrets, and their thoughts are not something that men can understand. You have been with her for a while, and you should understand that this beautiful woman is absolutely
She can't be an ordinary character, is it possible that she is a spy?"
Xue Poye shook his head, with a spring breeze smile on his face, and said softly: "She may betray me for some compelling reasons, but she will never betray the Hangzhou branch, because no matter how cunning and smart she is, she
Her heart is always kind, she...is a good woman!"
The green lady's delicate body trembled and she gently closed her eyes.
Uncle Shu still maintained a smiling face and sighed: "It seems that you are really affectionate and righteous to this female doll." He turned to Pan Silang and sighed: "If it is impossible for the two of them, then what about this one? Pan?
Shiro, the tracking and assassination skills are top-notch, but this skill is what the torture hall needs most. With Pan Shiro's skill, he can
The Xingtang will definitely be able to get a good identity. No matter what kind of identity it is, it must be better than a hall leader who is divided into two helms. Is it possible that he has been bribed by the Xingtang? After thinking about it, the old man thinks that this is the most likely.
It's a spy, probably the well-hidden Hall Master Pan, what do you think, the helmsman?"
Xue Poye pondered for a while, but then looked at Pan Silang and said slowly: "He said you are a spy?"
"Yes." Pan Silang's voice was calm: "He said I was a spy."
"So you are?"
"It's up to you to confirm this." Pan Silang clenched the strange weapon with both hands and said in an indifferent voice: "If you say I am, I will insert my bloodthirsty stick into my chest. If
If you say I'm not, I'll plunge my bloodthirsty stick into his chest."
Xue Poye looked at Uncle Shu with a bitter smile, spread his hands and said: "Uncle Shu, this guy said this, do you think he is a spy?"
Uncle Shu chuckled twice, his sharp eyes swept across Pan Silang's face, and he shook his head and said: "Master, can you hear what he said? He said he would insert the bloodthirsty stick into my chest. This young man is right
The old man is so disrespectful, and it seems there is something wrong with his character."
Xue Poye chuckled and said, "Actually, I understand what he said."
"oh!"
"He just thinks that if he is not a spy, then the spy can only be you, Uncle Shu. He has always been merciless to spies." Xue Poye's face gradually turned cold, and his cold eyes stared at Uncle Shu's face.
He went up and said calmly: "Why? Uncle Shu, you are already this age, what are you planning? Why did you betray us?"
The three hall masters were not surprised. They have been in the world for so many years, and their judgment skills are definitely not too weak. Therefore, after Xue Poye said these words, the three of them moved their bodies in a tacit understanding, forming the shape of horns, and sat on the chair.
The uncles from Shu gathered in the middle.
Uncle Shu seemed very relaxed. He took a sip of wine, wiped his mouth, and then said with a smile: "The helmsman seems to have determined that I am a spy? As you said, I am an old man, and I am already so old.
, one foot is about to step into the coffin, why do you still want to buy someone? Why can't this spy be you, the helmsman?"
Xue Poye chuckled and said: "Because I said I wasn't, so I am not."
Uncle Shu sighed: "What an arrogant young man."
"Uncle Shu, you should know that your tactics of sowing discord will certainly not have any effect on us." Xue Poye's voice became colder: "You belong to the Hangzhou Branch and are my subordinates, Xue Poye, and now you have betrayed your companions.
, do you think you can make it out of the tower alive?"
Uncle Shu's expression suddenly became extremely desolate, and his eyes became very dull. He stared at the wine gourd in his hand quietly. The inner hall was silent for a while, and the atmosphere was indescribably weird.
"More than ten years ago, Yang Yao was just the leader of the Zhan Hall. At that time, I was on par with him. As the leader of the Punishment Hall, he and I were respected as the 'Qinglian Twin Demons' in the world."
When he was extremely stiff, Uncle Shu's extremely confused voice suddenly sounded slowly, as if he wanted to tell something.
Several people were a little strange and didn't understand why Uncle Shu was still talking such nonsense at this time. For Xue Poye, this was the first time he heard the name "Yang Yao", but he didn't know who it was.
He was just a little surprised. He didn't expect that the old man looking after the building was actually a famous figure at the time, even the former head of the execution hall.
"Everyone knows that Qinglianzhao is divided into five inner halls and five outer halls. You all know the outer five halls. In addition to the imperial edict hall, war hall, and punishment hall, there are also the golden hall for managing money and the special training hall.
.The killing hall of elite soldiers!" Uncle Shu looked lonely and indifferent, and said slowly: "More than ten
Years ago, the power of the five halls was very different from today. The Jintang and the Killing Hall were the most powerful halls within the Five Halls. The Zhantang and the Xingtang, because of the killings by officers and soldiers, became the most powerful halls of the five halls.
The weakest disciples are always looked down upon by the brothers in the guild, and no one would want to join these two monasteries."
"When I took over the execution hall, the punishment hall was understaffed, in a mess, and in disorder." Uncle Shu took a sip of wine, gently wiped the traces of wine from his mouth, and continued: "If someone in other halls violated the rules,
, not only will they not take the initiative to accept the crime, even if we send someone to call, they won’t be able to come.
, in their eyes, the torture hall is just a hall with the same decoration, without any use. Even if we arrest a person, his companions will arrive before he is punished, and they will take the person away without any discrimination.
He escaped trial and completely ignored us in the execution hall."
"If you are strong, everyone will support you; if you are weak, everyone will support you!" Xue Poye said calmly.
Uncle Shu glanced at Xue Poye and laughed. The laughter turned out to be indescribably bitter. After the laughter stopped, he continued: "At that time, Yang Yao and I were in the same boat. His war hall
It will definitely not be better than mine. The war hall is responsible for foreign wars. Not only does it have to face the pursuit of the imperial court, but also the provocations and conflicts from other gang forces. At that time, the war hall has no available talents, and everything is at stake.
It’s a waste of time and space waiting to be revitalized.”
"Then the chief helmsman just lets it go?" Xue Poye asked.
"Chief rudder?" Uncle Shu's eyes were blurry, as if he was thinking about something, and he said after a moment: "The chief rudder at that time should be Han Changbang. His biggest hobby is to collect the world's most unique weapons, and he is really negligent about his help.
To the extreme, at that time,
He even wanted to dissolve the War Hall and the Punishment Hall, leaving only the three major halls. However, this foolish suggestion was ultimately rejected by everyone. After all, Qinglianzhao had been the inner five halls since its creation. Suddenly, there were fewer
If you go through two halls, it can't be considered a Qinglianzhao."
"At that time, Yang Yao and I were like brothers. We encouraged each other in adversity, and even escaped from being rounded up by black dogs from the Metropolitan Procuratorate several times. We saved each other several times. It was a life-long friendship." Shu Bo.
There was a self-deprecating smile on his face: "At that time, I thought I had found a true friend who could trust my life. When the situation stabilized, I reorganized the execution hall and spared no effort.
At that time, few people in Qinglianzhao could match my methods of love, so I personally attacked many gangsters who committed heinous crimes. At the beginning, I was attacked from both sides, and some even said that I abused my private power and carried out torture.
Tu harmed my fellow disciples and wanted to expel me from Qinglianzhao. Hehe, now that I think about it, if I really left at that time, these things would not have happened."
Xue Poye and others listened to him quietly, firstly out of curiosity, but most importantly, because they understood that Uncle Shu's words were by no means boring words. These words naturally had his purpose, so they let him speak.
, but everyone is on guard, and if Uncle Shu makes the slightest move, he must take action to stop him.
"Just when everyone wanted to expel me from Qinglianzhao, and even Han Changbang wanted to expel me, it was Yang Yao who stepped forward and explained the importance of the execution hall to me in front of Han Changbang and other hall masters.
Once the punishment department is weakened, there will be no reward and punishment system in Qinglianzhao. In this way, the Qinglianzhao congregation will definitely have no restraint
, If things go on like this, it will be a fatal disaster for the entire Qinglianzhao. He talked a lot. In the end, with his outstanding tongue, he actually convinced that group of people, and I was able to stay and even get
With everyone's consent, the guilty gang members can be punished fairly and honestly using the unique methods of the execution hall."
"Since then, I have really started to use my hands and feet. First, I have eliminated some incompetent people in the punishment hall. Through hard work, I have obtained some honest helpers. The gang punishments have been fair and honest, and I have also re-formulated the gang's criminal rules.
, each article is formulated after careful consideration, although one
There was still opposition at first, but because Yang Yao firmly supported me and I severely punished several sub-rudders, the entire execution hall really got on track." Speaking of this, Uncle Shu showed a smile on his face.
, that is the smile from the heart, that glorious life experience will never be easily forgotten.
Although Xue Poye knew that Uncle Shu had betrayed the Hangzhou branch today, he was still in awe of what he had done.
"And Yang Yao's war hall is also working hard to govern. Not only has it gradually grown, but it has also assassinated more than ten important officials of the imperial court, and even wiped out more than a dozen surrounding gangs. It was very prosperous for a while, and I, Qing Lian Zhao,
The power increased greatly, so Yang Yao and I gradually became known as the "Two Demons of Qinglian", and the Battle Hall and the Punishment Hall gradually overshadowed the other halls and were called
For the two most powerful Qinglianzhao, Yang Yao and I have become sworn brothers, and we have worked hard to defeat Chu and restore Shu." A sneer appeared on Uncle Shu's face: "Two years have passed like this, Qinglianzhao
The actual control power of Han Changbang has been in the hands of Yang Yao, and because Han Changbang lost his mind due to playing with things, not only did his reputation in the meeting plummet, but his martial arts skills also fell behind Yang Yao."
Xue Poye frowned, this is the so-called meritorious service. Could it be that Yang Yao was assassinated because of this? What Uncle Shu did today was just to avenge his sworn brother?
He went to see the other three people, and saw the three hall masters looking solemnly at Uncle Shu.
Uncle Shu glanced at everyone from the corner of his eyes, sneered twice, and continued: "Do you think that because Yang Yaogong is so powerful, someone will definitely design a plan to harm him?"
Xue Poye was startled. He didn't expect Uncle Shu to have guessed his own thoughts. He admired Uncle Shu's insight and replied calmly: "We are listening to you, or... we are listening to you explaining, so that you can say
Saying these words, maybe it will make you feel better, because you always need a reason to betray your companions."
Uncle Shu's mouth twitched, he took a big sip of wine and murmured: "My reason? Hehe, maybe." After a pause, he continued: "Yang Yao was huge in power, and the battle hall became prominent for a while, becoming Qinglianzhao.
There is no one in the limelight like this, so naturally some people will be dissatisfied, but Yang Yao is a cunning person, and if you want to harm him, hehe, I'm afraid it will be harder than reaching the sky."
"Others can't harm him, but he can control the life and death of others. As his power grows, he actually begins to spy on the position of the chief helmsman, and even sends people to persuade Han Changbang to abdicate and make way for someone more worthy." Uncle Shu's eyes showed a gleam of resentment.
He said coldly: "Although Han Changbang has lost his ambition by playing with things, he has been tested before he ascended to the position of chief helmsman. He still has the ability. It is absolutely impossible for him to give up his position."
The expressions of the three hall masters were even more serious. Qian Hong wanted to speak several times, but in the end he suppressed his emotions and did not say anything. Xue Poye put his hands on his back, secretly circulated the energy in his body, and was ready to take action.
No matter what reason Uncle Shu had for betraying everyone today, he was still a spy. Xue Poye always had only three words for those who betrayed him.
Show no mercy!
What's more, even if he breaks the precept and shows mercy, Uncle Shu and the people ambushing around the Hongyan Pagoda will never show mercy. When Uncle Shu finishes explaining his reasons, a bloody battle is inevitable.
Uncle Shu's voice had become much louder: "Yang Yao sent people several times to persuade Han Changbang to give up his throne, so he finally took action. That time, he selected several close generals and went to the altar together to personally persuade Han Changbang to give up his throne.
He made careful arrangements in advance, and even the guards guarding the altar were deceived by him.
After leaving the altar, only Han Changbang was left in the entire altar. Originally, I would not know what happened after that night, but on a whim that night, I went to the altar for some reason. Maybe it was because I killed too many people and wanted to go to the altar.
Please calm down and think, haha... I actually caught up on what happened that night."
"Do you know?" Uncle Shu glanced at the four people and said word by word: "Your chief helmsman Yang Yao got this position in a very dirty way. He killed the previous chief helmsman with his own hands.
Han Changbang snatched it away!"
"Shut up!" Qian Hong couldn't help shouting: "You're talking nonsense, you are spreading rumors and slandering me."
"Rumors? Slander?" Shu Bo laughed and said: "For those of you who are about to die, there is no need for me to spend such a long time telling lies that are not true. I just want to let you understand that the chief helmsman you have always been loyal to
, that sanctimonious guy is actually the most despicable and vicious man in the world."
"On the night of the altar, he led people to kill Han Changbang and his master!" dd
