A brother from the Beggar Clan wisely pulled up a chair and asked Tian Hui to sit down. Li Tianmu said, "Brother Tian, ask her why she wanted to kill Brother Geng?"
Tian Hui said to the jade-faced demon fox: "Why did you kill Geng Zhenggang, the law enforcement elder of the Beggar Clan?"
The jade-faced demon fox's eyes were dull and he said in a daze: "I didn't kill Geng Zhenggang. Qi Zhong killed Geng Zhenggang's whole family."
Qi Zhong is the deputy leader of the Beggar Clan.
Li Tianmu was shocked when he heard this and shouted: "What, Brother Geng's whole family was killed by Qi Zhong, what on earth is going on?"
Tian Hui said: "Jade-faced Demon Fox, tell me everything you know about the whole story."
The jade-faced demon fox said: "Qi Zhong's adopted son Qi Tongsheng was killed by Geng Zhenggang. Qi Zhong always wanted to avenge his adopted son, but he was afraid of getting into trouble, so he didn't dare to take action. He wanted to wait until he had made enough money before killing him.
Geng Zhenggang then flew away.
"Not long ago, he finally decided to attack Geng Zhenggang and killed Geng Zhenggang's family overnight. He wanted to take all his belongings and me to Japan to live a happy life, but he couldn't leave immediately. If Geng Zhenggang died, he would
Resigning from his position in the Beggar Clan and traveling far away will definitely arouse suspicion.
"He wanted to wait for some time until the news about Geng Zhenggang's case subsided before resigning and leaving. In order to ruin Geng Zhenggang's reputation, he made up a story about Geng Zhenggang deceiving my feelings and asked me to spread it everywhere. I was careless and was captured.
.”
After hearing this, Li Tianmu became angry and shouted at the table: "Qi Zhong, you despicable and shameless villain, someone will definitely cut you into pieces."
Shi Jinghong said angrily: "Qi Zhong deserves to die. I never imagined that he could be so vicious and scheming. It is really unfortunate for the family to have such a scum in the Beggar Clan. Tomorrow we will rush back to the main helm to expose Qi Zhong's scandalous behavior and execute the family's plan."
Law, clean up the family, and give justice to Elder Geng."
Li Tianmu said: "Master Shi, please hand over Qi Zhong to me. I will kill this thief and avenge Brother Geng."
Shi Jinghong said: "Okay."
Li Tianmu had a question. He didn't know why Qi Zhong's adopted son Qi Tongsheng died at the hands of Geng Zhenggang, so he asked Shi Jinghong.
Shi Jinghong said: "Qi Tongsheng's original name was Liu Qidan. He was a native of Hangzhou. His father was Liu Sigou. He worked as a servant in Qi Zhong's house. Qi Zhong had no children. Seeing that Liu Qidan was smart, he adopted him as his adopted son Gan'er and changed his name to Qi Tongsheng.
The surname is Qi Tongsheng, who taught him martial arts and cultivated his talents.
"Qi Tongsheng has some abilities and good martial arts skills. Seeing that he was a promising talent, my father focused on training him. As a result, he was promoted quickly in the gang. He started from the bottom and within ten years, he was promoted to the Fujian branch.
The helmsman, the helmsman, is responsible for his own role.
"Qi Tongsheng is a low-key person and diligent in his work. When he was in charge of the Fujian branch, he worked conscientiously and diligently, and managed the Fujian branch in an orderly manner. Originally, the profits that Fujian turned over every year only ranked third or fourth in the country.
.
"Since Qi Tongsheng took office, the Fujian branch's income has increased significantly, and within two years it has ranked first in the country. He was promoted by my father. With such gratifying results, my father also feels bright. Qi Tongsheng is a frugal man,
I never spend money extravagantly and wastefully, and I have no bad habits. I don’t engage in whoring or gambling.”
At this point, he sighed and said: "Who would have thought? He actually had serious economic problems. In just four years after taking office, he embezzled more than 300,000 taels of revenue from the helm. Fortunately, Elder Geng had a keen eye and was able to detect every detail.
A moth dug it out.
"He had an unknown private residence in Fuzhou City. He hid all the money he gained from corruption in a secret room of the house. There was an account book recording the proceeds from corruption. The amount of money was exactly the same as what was found in the secret room. This guy
I don’t know what he thought after embezzling such a large sum of money and not spending even a tael. Why did he embezzle so much money if he didn’t spend it?
"On the day of the public trial of Qi Tongsheng in the Xiangtang Hall, my father asked about this matter. Qi Tongsheng said that he was a farmer's son. He was afraid of poverty and did not want to be poor anymore. He was obsessed with money and did such wrong things. He was afraid of Elder Geng.
For fear of attracting Elder Geng's attention, he did not dare to spend the money.
"If the amount of corruption he had committed hadn't been so huge, my father wouldn't have had the heart to kill him." He sighed and then said, "Qi Tongsheng has nothing wrong with him. He's just too greedy for money and doesn't care about money. In the end, he will lose his life."
He was buried. Why did this happen? It is really sad and lamentable. It makes people feel pitiful and hateful at the same time.
"Qi Tongsheng himself took the wrong path and suffered the blow of that knife. He is really to blame for himself. As the law enforcement elder, it is the duty of Elder Geng to investigate and deal with Qi Tongsheng. I didn't expect that this villain Qi Zhong would hold a grudge against Elder Geng and commit such a murderous attack."
Li Tianmu said: "I have suspected before that Brother Geng's tragic death was probably caused by offending someone in your gang because of his strict law enforcement. It seems that I really guessed it, and it turned out to be true." After a pause.
After a pause, he continued: "Master Shi, haven't you heard about Qi Zhong and the jade-faced demon fox getting together?"
Shi Jinghong said: "I'm really ashamed. I don't know anything about this. Qi Zhong only has one wife. He passed away a few years ago and has never renewed his relationship. On the surface, he has never been a womanizer. We all thought he was not.
Such a seductress, I didn’t expect that this guy was just pretending and actually hooked up with the jade-faced demon fox in private.”
Tian Hui said: "Master Li, Master Shi, what else do you want to ask the Jade Faced Demon Fox?"
Shi Jinghong said: "It's nothing."
Tian Hui snapped his fingers, and the jade-faced demon fox trembled, and his expression returned to normal.
Li Tianmu said: "Jade-faced Demon Fox, do you know what happened just now?"
The jade-faced demon fox said: "What happened just now?"
Li Tianmu said: "Just now, Mr. Tian used the Soul Capturing Technique on you. You have already confessed that Qi Zhong killed Brother Geng's family and that Qi Zhong asked you to slander Brother Geng. Although Brother Geng is not a jade-faced demon fox,
He died at your hands, but you and Qi Zhong worked together to ruin Brother Geng's reputation and throw dirty water on him. Qi Zhong deserves to die, and you can't stay. After we capture Qi Zhong, a certain family will kill you two dogs.
Both men and women were cut into pieces."
The jade-faced demon fox said sadly: "Why did I just say that, Lao Qi, I can't help you."
Shi Jinghong said to Tian Hui: "Brother Tian, we have to rush back to the headquarters in Hangzhou tomorrow to hold a public trial of Qi Zhong in the incense hall. At that time, if you can help me, you can use the soul-stirring method again and ask this woman to confess everything. I wonder if you can go with us.
A trip to Hangzhou?"
Tian Hui readily agreed.
Shi Jinghong ordered his men to open a room for Tian Hui and wanted him to stay here.
Tian Hui said: "No need, I have my own place to live. I'll come back early tomorrow morning."
Shi Jinghong said: "Okay, let's see you tomorrow."
After Tian Hui left, Shi Jinghong ordered his brothers to take good care of the jade-faced demon fox, and he and Li Tianmu went back to their rooms to rest.
The next morning, Li Tianmu got up early, washed up, and left the house. He wanted to practice in the courtyard. He took a look at the room where the Jade-Faced Demon Fox was, and saw that the two beggar brothers guarding the door were gone.
There were large blood stains on the ground.
Li Tianmu was startled and hurriedly rushed into the room to check. The jade-faced demon fox was nowhere to be seen, and the four brothers from the Beggar Clan who were responsible for guarding her all had their heads removed.
Li Tianmu paused and sighed: "How careless, why didn't I look at her personally?"
Li Tianmu went to find Shi Jinghong. Seeing the tragic deaths of his brothers, Shi Jinghong shouted: "Qi Zhong, you are too cruel!"
Li Tianmu said: "I think this may not be Qi Zhong's doing. Qi Zhong is good at palm skills. With his palm power, he can kill these four people. There is no need to use weapons."
Shi Jinghong pondered for a moment and said: "What Mr. Li said makes sense. It seems that there is someone else who rescued the jade-faced demon fox. After the jade-faced demon fox escapes, he will definitely send a message to Qi Zhong. We must rush back to the headquarters in Hangzhou as soon as possible. Don't call Qi Zhong.
Zhong ran away. As soon as Brother Tian arrives, we will set off. Let’s eat first."
While Li and Shi were having breakfast, Tian Hui came, and Shi Jinghong said, "Brother Tian, sit down and have something together."
Tian Hui said: "I've used it, you can eat it." He sat aside.
Shi Jinghong said: "Brother Tian, the jade-faced demon fox has been rescued."
Tian Hui said: "Oh, why are you so careless?" After a pause, he said: "In that case, there is nothing going on. You two, let's say goodbye. The mountains will remain green and the water will flow forever.
, see you later." After saying that, he left.
Shi Jinghong cupped his hands and said, "Brother Tian, thank you very much for your help. If you ever need the Beggar Clan in the future, feel free to come to me. I'm determined to go through fire and water without hesitation. We'll see you later."
Li Tianmu said: "Now that the jade-faced demon fox has escaped, there is no witness, and there is no evidence. It would be troublesome if Qi Zhong refuses to admit his guilt. If Brother Tian can use the soul-stirring method to restrain him, things will be easier to handle."
Tian Hui said with a smile: "I admire you, Master Li. I am self-aware of Qi Zhong's internal strength cultivation. In terms of internal strength, I can't compare to Qi Zhong. My Soul Capturing Technique cannot control him. Just
Why don't you show off your shame? Farewell, farewell."
When Li Tianmu heard what he said, he couldn't force himself, so he had to say "see you later" and bid farewell to Tian Hui.
After breakfast, Li Shi and the others hurriedly rushed back to the headquarters of the Beggar Clan in Hangzhou Prefecture in the afternoon of the same day.
Shi Jinghong asked one of his confidants to see if Qi Zhong was still there. The confidant came back and reported: "Deputy Gang Leader Qi is still in the office."
Li Tianmu said doubtfully: "After the jade-faced demon fox escaped last night, she will definitely inform Qi Zhong. She should have arrived at Hangzhou Mansion earlier than us. I think Qi Zhong has already learned that the matter has been exposed, why doesn't he run away?"
Shi Jinghong said: "I think this guy must think that there is nothing we can do against him without a witness. Hum, he is totally wrong to think so. Since I know Qi Zhong's scandalous behavior and there is no evidence, I can't do anything about him."
We have to deal with him, and we must not let him go unpunished. Mr. Li will wait a moment, and I will report to my father and open an incense hall to put Qi Zhong on trial."
