Lu Xiaofeng stood next to the snake king's body, her eyebrows almost twisted into knots, and she blamed herself: "We shouldn't have eaten at the door. If we had come in a moment earlier, maybe he wouldn't have died."
Su Yang looked at a corner of the room, shook his head and said calmly: "If he doesn't die today, he may die tomorrow. Once something gets involved, it will be difficult to escape unscathed."
Whether it was the Blue Dragon Society, the Red Shoes Organization, Pingnan Palace, or even Jin Jiuling, none of them could be offended by the Snake King. He should not have gotten involved in these things and got involved with these people who could not afford to offend.
"How are you sure that he also joined in?" Lu Xiaofeng asked curiously.
"Look what that is!" Su Yang pointed at the corner and said.
Following the direction of his finger, there was actually a small Buddhist niche in the corner of the room! And in the Buddhist niche, there was also a Zambuluk God of Wealth! With three heads and six arms, in three colors: yellow, red and black.
Lu Xiaofeng suddenly picked up the small statue of the God of Wealth, looked at it over and over, and suddenly smashed the statue's head with a punch.
The statue is still empty, and there is no note or anything like that on the belly, but there is a small white Zambulu painting on the inner wall. In the painting, Zambulu, the God of Wealth, is riding a green dragon, and on the inside is a small white dragon.
Jiang Qingxia saw exactly the same thing!
There is also a small copper incense burner in front of the Buddhist niche. The incense burner looks very old, as if it has been used for many years. It is still full of incense ashes, and half of the extinguished incense is inserted.
Holding the headless Buddha statue and looking at the Buddhist niche in front of her, Lu Xiaofeng's hands trembled slightly, as if she had thought of something.
"Since you have known him for almost ten years, have you already known that he worships Zanbulu, the God of Wealth?"
"I came here seven or eight years ago and saw a Buddhist niche in his room, but I didn't pay attention to what kind of Buddha it was inside. As time went by, I gradually forgot about it!"
Lu Xiaofeng angrily punched herself on the head. The impact hit her head hard, and she gritted her teeth and said, "I should have remembered this! When I saw the Buddhist niche in the Taoist temple for the first time, I
You should remember it!”
While he was talking, he was about to hit the wall with his head, and with a bang, a big hole was made in the wall.
"It's useless even if you break your own head. If you die, you are dead. You will never come back to life." Su Yang said.
Lu Xiaofeng's eyes were red and he growled like a wounded beast: "But if I could have thought of this earlier, if we didn't eat that damn bowl of meat soup at the door, maybe he wouldn't have died!"
Su Yang shook his head: "You have to understand one thing. Since he got involved, you should be prepared to die at any time. In fact, it's not just him, it's anyone. Including you. Including me. Even Ximen Chuixue, including
Ye Gucheng, no one is immune to death, and no one is immortal. Everyone must be responsible for their own actions, so if one day we both have to face death, I hope it will be in a peaceful state.
.”
Lu Xiaofeng gritted her teeth and said, "But now I want others to die!"
"who?"
Lu Xiaofeng raised the silk in her hand, raised the Buddha statue, threw it heavily to the ground, and said in a deep voice: "What do you think?"
"Do you know where she is?"
"Although this city is big, there will always be a day when it can turn around." He said as he walked out, seemingly ready to search for each house one by one.
At this moment, there was a commotion outside the door, there were shouts and curses, the sound of weapons being unsheathed, and someone was already using their hands.
"The Yamen is doing business, get out of the way!" someone shouted.
Lu Xiaofeng and Su Yang looked at each other. Before they could go out, there were already two screams outside!
I opened the door and looked outside. There were two groups of people confronting each other in the narrow alley. On one side were more than a dozen brothers of the Snake King, and on the other side were more than a dozen people. They were all policemen. The leader had a gloomy face and was not very old.
He was big, but his hair was already gray, and he was holding a chain gun in his hand, and blood was dripping from the tip of the chain gun.
There was a pool of blood on the ground between the two groups, and lying in the pool of blood was the man who led Lu Xiaofeng and Su Yang to the Snake King.
"Get out of the way!" Su Yang shouted in a low voice, and his figure had already risen from the ground, like a big bird floating across the crowd and landing next to the waiter.
I saw a deep bullet hole in the heart of the guy's chest, and blood was gurgling out from inside.
The man's face was as pale as gold, his eyes were closed, and he was only breathing weakly. I checked his pulse again, and found that it was beating weakly. The pulse gradually became gentle, and his life was gone. Even the Great God of Luo could not save him here.
Lu Xiaofeng also arrived, stood between the two groups of people, and shouted: "What's going on!"
The Snake King's brothers all had sad and angry faces. The leader pointed at the agents across from him and muttered a few words to Lu Xiaofeng in Cantonese. They looked very angry, but the leading agent on the other side put away his hands.
He put on his chain gun, put on a respectful smile, bowed to Su Yang and Lu Xiaofeng, and said, "Are you Daxia Su and Daxia Lu?"
"Who are you and why do you want to break in here and kill people?" Lu Xiaofeng asked.
"I am the chief catcher of the six southeastern provinces, my name is Bald Eagle Lu Shaohua." The white-haired catcher apologized and said with a smile: "I accompanied our boss Jin here to handle the case this time. Along the way, I heard that someone was in Mianyue Tower.
When we attacked Xiyuan, Boss Jin knew it was Daxia Lu and Daxia Su as soon as he heard it, but he searched half the city and couldn't find them. Meng Wei, our three-headed snake hunter in the city, told us that the Snake King in the city has hands and eyes and a wide network of friends.
Maybe the two of them were at Snake King's place. The younger one brought his brothers to look for him. Who knows, but these friends stopped him from getting closer. In desperation, the younger one thought something had happened to the two of them, so he took action.
I accidentally missed my hand and hurt my friend."
Of course I had heard of Lu Shaohua and Lu Xiaofeng, the head of the headquarters of the six southeastern provinces, but I didn't expect that this man was not only not weak in martial arts, but also spoke in a certain way. At this time, he did not look like a person who would scare the underworld friends in the six provinces.
, but like a well-behaved butler.
Boss Jin is Jin Jiuling. Although Jin Jiuling no longer works in Liumen, most of the people in Liumen are his disciples and grandchildren.
Lu Shaohua is a discerning person and has already seen that Lu Xiaofeng and Su Yang have a layer of frost on their faces. He quickly said: "You are really troublesome. With the abilities of the two of you, how can you be trapped?"
Immediately after returning home, I asked someone to send five thousand taels of silver to this brother for settlement expenses." He is actually a good person. Perhaps it is because he is not only good at catching theft, but also good at being a good person, that is why he survived to become the chief arrester of six provinces.
head.
"You are indeed rich. Just ask for five thousand taels." Lu Xiaofeng snorted coldly.
Lu Shaohua smiled apologetically and said: "After working in Gongmen for so many years, I am more or less a bit outside of myself. What's more, this time it's just a small outburst."
He turned around and waved, and the shutter behind him moved out of the way. He made an invitation gesture and said with a smile: "If you two have nothing to do, Mr. Jin has prepared a banquet in the Yamen. Please come.
Let’s talk about the case.”
He is really good at talking. Being kicked off the banquet was a personal matter, and talking about the case was a business matter. With that said, no one could find a reason to refuse. No wonder he could achieve this position before he was forty years old.
.........
Although Futai Yamen is a fourth-grade official government, in front of Jin Jiuling, the former boss of Six Doors, Futai is really not a high official. What's more, Jin Jiuling's current identity is the chief manager of King Pingnan, let alone a senior official.
It can only be compared with that of Futai.
In the back house of Futai Yamen, several large courtyards were specially set aside for Jin Jiuling and his people to live.
A banquet had already started in the largest courtyard, and there were only three people at the table, Lu Xiaofeng, Su Yang and Jin Jiuling. Meng Wei, the local three-headed snake hunter, and Lu Shaohua, the chief bald eagle hunter of the six provinces, stood aside to keep them company.
Lu Shaohua stood next to Jin Jiuling. He lowered his head and lowered his hands, his face covered with sweat.
Jin Jiuling said lightly: "Shaohua, what you did was too ill-considered. You killed the Snake King's brothers. Have you thought about how you want Xiao Meng to behave in the city in the future if they want to retaliate?"
If the Snake King is still alive, he can sell me some face, but now... ugh..."
Xiao Meng is the three-headed snake Meng Wei. The head catcher here has only one head, but it is said that he has three faces. When he treats prisoners, he has one face, when he treats his colleagues and friends, he has another face, and when he treats his senior superiors, he has three faces.
Now this one.
Meng Wei said: "Don't worry, boss. The big bosses under the Snake King and I can still talk to each other, and there won't be any chaos."
The way he spoke was very confident, giving people an inexplicable sense of security, as if if he said it wouldn't be messy, then it definitely wouldn't be messy.
Looking at Meng Wei's innocent face, with a slightly shy smile, Su Yang found it really hard to imagine what his face looked like when he treated prisoners. Such a person would smile and pour chili pepper on people.
Water, with a stick on top. It is said that among the nine famous arrests in the southeast, his methods are always vicious. If friends in the underworld lose their hands, they would rather commit suicide than fall into his hands.
But perhaps it is because of this kind of people that people will know that it is better not to commit crimes.
"No matter what, we are sorry for the brothers of Snake King. Apart from the money you mentioned..." Jin Jiuling paused and asked Meng Wei: "How much money did you originally receive from Snake King's people every month?"
?”
"Eight hundred taels."
"Don't accept it from today on." Jin Jiuling said calmly: "From now on, Xiao Meng's share of silver, Shaohua, you will also receive 800 taels less."
When Lu Shaohua heard that he would be charged less, not only was he not angry, but he looked relieved and nodded heavily.
After Jin Jiuling finished handling their internal affairs, he asked Lu Xiaofeng: "You said that you met Aunt Gongsun, and the Snake King would probably die in her hands?"
Lu Xiaofeng nodded: "Not only did I meet her, but she is probably hiding somewhere in the city."
Jin Jiuling thought for a while and said to Meng Wei, "Go and do it."
Meng Wei nodded, turned around and walked out.
After Meng Wei took the people out, Jin Jiuling sighed and said, "I didn't expect it was her. This person is really troublesome."
"Of course it's troublesome. Not many people can escape under the two of us." Su Yang said.
Lu Shaohua suddenly said: "In the past two years, some people who didn't understand often died on the road. They were poisoned, and some roasted chestnuts were scattered around the bodies. When accidents happened, it was always on the night of the full moon.
.I have handled several cases like this. I have never been able to find any clues. Those who died were neither killed by their enemies nor killed for money."
Jin Jiuling said: "Because the people who died were unknown people, this matter did not spread in the world. Only those who handled the case in public knew that two years ago, there was a newly debuted bodyguard named Zhang Fang.
That’s how he died, but before he died, he also said: Grandma Xiong’s sugar-roasted chestnuts.”
Su Yang said: "I know that not only Grandma Xiong, but also the female butcher, Peach Blossom Bee, and the Five Poison Lady are all this person."
Jin Jiuling added: "But her most troublesome and ruthless identity is that of Gongsun Auntie."
"Of course Aunt Gongsun is just a nickname."
"Yes, or perhaps hundreds of years ago, this was a name, the name of the most outstanding swordsman among women in the world for thousands of years. But after the death of Lady Gongsun, her true disciple, no matter what his real name was,
To the outside world, she is always called Gongsun Auntie. It is said that the real name of Gongsun Auntie, the successor of this generation of sword dance, is Gongsun Lan, and her martial arts skills are no longer inferior to those of Gongsun Auntie back then. If it is really her, then I am afraid that I will have to ask Lord Ye to fight.
