"Liao Baizhi, I advise you to consult your grandfather and think about why Liao Baishen gave me his most trusted maid in the first place? I believe your grandfather will tell you that the person standing in front of you is not
The little Liao family dares to provoke you. I’m not here to beg you, but to give you an order! If you don’t listen, your Liao family will soon disappear from the capital."
"Hahahaha..." After listening to Xia Shang's words, Liao Baizhi laughed wildly, "This... this is the biggest joke I have ever heard in my life! You are so seductive and arrogant that you claim to make our Liao family disappear from the capital. You also
If you don’t ask around, how many years has our Liao family been standing in the capital and how many ups and downs have we gone through?”
Xia Shang became increasingly agitated, just because he heard that the other party used jade slaves as a threat.
In fact, there are many ways to talk. With a normal mind, Xia Shang would definitely be able to persuade Liao Baizhi, but now he suddenly doesn't want to talk to this person. He feels that if he sees these narrow eyes, he might
If you can't help but hit someone, if you don't make a fuss, you will beat the person to death directly.
Xia Shang suppressed the irritability in his heart, turned around and said to Yu Nu: "Let's go."
The decision was a bit sudden, and Yu Nu didn't even react, but Xia Shang had already taken steps to the front.
Yu Nu quickly followed.
When Yu Nu passed by Liao Baizhi, Liao Baizhi suddenly stretched out his hand as if to catch Yu Nu.
Xia Shang looked unkind and turned around to glare at Liao Baizhi.
Liao Baizhi didn't understand what was going on. He was just stunned by a look and froze in place without making any movement.
After leaving the tea shop, the streets of Beijing have begun to accumulate snow.
A long line of Xia Shang's footprints was soon left on the snow.
"Master...Master, wait for the jade slave!"
Yunu chased after him, finally caught up with Xia Shang's pace, and grabbed Xia Shang's arm.
"Master...I..."
Yu Nu seemed to know Xia Shang's inner annoyance and was about to explain something.
Xia Shang interrupted: "No need to explain anything, this has nothing to do with you."
"Then... how about letting Yu Nu talk to him? Yu Nu has a way to make him obedient."
"I don't just rely on the Liao family for my affairs. Since they don't cooperate, I'll just put in a little more effort."
Xia Shang is right. It is easy to use the connections of the Liao family to investigate the assassin injured by Yue Lingbo, but it does not mean that this is the only way.
Law.
After finishing speaking, Xia Shang did not explain anything more, but walked aimlessly in the streets of the capital.
"Master, where are we going?" Yu Nu was a little curious.
But Xia Shang did not answer.
Until I saw a beggar huddled in the snow.
Xia Shang gave him a piece of silver and used this beggar to find Zhang Kui, who had left the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
Zhang Kui is now in charge of the Beggar Gang, and there are informants all over the capital. It is not difficult to investigate the assassin through his people.
This is a temple that has been abandoned for many years and has now become the headquarters of the Beggar Gang.
Everyone in the capital knows about the Beggar Clan and knows that this is where beggars gather.
Therefore, very few people come near this temple.
The establishment of the Beggar Gang was just a playful idea in Xia Shang's heart. He never thought that in just a few years, the Beggar Gang would develop to its current level.
The Beggar Gang was not a martial arts gang from the beginning, but a force at the bottom of society that cannot be ignored.
Walking on an abandoned street controlled by beggar gangs, standing at the entrance of a temple, and being stared at by pairs of cold eyes, it feels like walking in a deserted wilderness and being stared at by a pack of hungry wolves.
This street has lost its former name and is only called Beggars Street by the common people.
On Beggars Street, there was a rancid smell in the air, and there was even a feeling of being shrouded in shadow. Even the snow on Tianshan Mountain seemed to be gray.
Yunu couldn't stand such an atmosphere and was a little scared. He just held Xia Shang's arm and pressed as close to Xia Shang's body as possible.
The beggar who led the way came out of the temple and called Xia Shang in.
The inside of the temple is much cleaner than the outside. It doesn't look like an abandoned temple. The people inside are all wearing clean and tidy clothes. No one looks like a beggar. However, their eyes reveal that they are more ferocious.
Their gazes, and Xia Shang could feel the faint flow of true energy in their bodies.
Entering the main hall, there were only four or five people inside.
Xia Shang did not see Zhang Kui, who was brave and iron-faced. Instead, a capable young man in his late twenties came to Xia Shang.
Upon meeting each other, Xia Shang felt a chill in his heart. The aura exuded by this capable boy was very domineering, and he was definitely a master.
Unexpectedly, apart from Zhang Kui, there were also other members of the Beggar Clan
Grandmaster, and so young!
"Hey! Do you still remember me?" The young man smiled in front of Xia Shang.
Xia Shang frowned and sounded like this person knew him?
"Forgot?" The other party frowned.
"Who are you?"
"I'm Hong Qi!"
"Hong Qi!" Xia Shang suddenly realized that this boy was actually Zhang Kui's adopted son Hong Qi!
Hong Qi's name left a deep impression on Xia Shang, so he would not forget it. However, after several years, Hong Qi had grown up and his appearance had changed a lot, so he couldn't remember it.
Unexpectedly, Hong Qi not only grew up, but also became a master in so many years.
It's not surprising if you think about it carefully. This Hong Qi is born with strange powers and is a gifted person.
Zhang Kui has a volume of the Heavenly Book given by Xia Shang. In order to cultivate his own power, he will definitely pass the Heavenly Book to his adopted son. It is logical for Hong Qi to become a master.
"I finally remembered!" Hong Qi patted Xia Shang on the shoulder. Compared with the dullness in the past, it now felt a bit more familiar, without any airs of being a master. He pulled Xia Shang to sit in the upper seat of the hall.
Next, "I heard that you are looking for my father?"
"Yes."
"What are you looking for him for?"
"I need to borrow the power of the beggar gang."
"How to say?"
"I want people from the Beggar Clan to help keep an eye on the people who come in and out of the drug stores in the capital these days."
"Be specific."
Xia Shang took out a prepared piece of paper from his clothes: "In the past two days, try to find everyone who bought the medicinal materials above. I want to find someone."
Hong Qi handed the paper to someone next to him without even looking at it: "Did you hear that? Get this done!"
"yes!"
Xia Shang looked at Hong Qi in surprise: "So refreshing?"
Hong Qi smiled: "I know you, and I also like you. You are kind to me and my father, so your affairs will be taken care of."
Seeing the men of the Beggar Gang leaving the temple with the orders, Xia Shang turned around and said, "Thank you."
"Don't be polite to me. I am no longer the stupid boy I used to be. Feel free to come to me if you need anything in the future."
"Hong Qi...I said that the Beggar Clan has its own rules..."
Suddenly, a voice came from inside, and Zhang Kui came over step by step with a cane.
