"What about Mr. Tang?"

After the initial shock, Nan Batian immediately asked the topic that concerned him most: Where is my think tank Tang Ziyue?

As soon as he asked this question, footsteps were heard outside.

"Boss, Boss~"

Hearing the footsteps, Nan Batian was startled and quickly signaled the first younger brother to open the door. At this time, he saw a younger brother running back panting and said, "Boss, Mr. Tang, Mr. Tang has been sent back!"

"People, where are people?"

Nan Batian asked. After hearing this, the younger brother said, "It was pulled back by a bullock cart outside. You, you should go and have a look."

"Oxcart, I'll go take a look."

Nan Batian said this and rushed out directly. Then he saw an ox cart pulled to the outer courtyard of the Fishing Gang’s headquarters. There was a man standing next to it. It was Chen Xiaohu, the first general under Chen Jie.

When Xiaohu saw Nan Batian, he clasped his fists and said, "I, Chen Xiaohu, greet the gang leader!"

Nan Batian looked at Tang Ziyue lying on the ox cart and said, "What's going on?"

Xiao Hu immediately replied, "Boss, last night when we were on a mission, we were attacked by Old Monster Liu. Mr. Tang risked his life and took the lead to fight Old Monster Liu alone, but he was outnumbered and finally..."

"Ziyue is dead!!"

Nan Batian's eyes suddenly widened, and Xiaohu said, "No, he's not dead."

"what?"

After hearing this, not only Nan Batian, but also the servants around looked over. What's going on? From the tone of your voice and these two sentences, it sounds like a eulogy. How come you're not dead after all this time? This doesn't make sense!

Nan Batian frowned and looked at Xiaohu. Xiaohu said, "Oh, it's my fault. I didn't explain it clearly. The person is not dead, he was just knocked unconscious. I guess he will wake up soon."

"My hall master was afraid that the gang leader would be anxious, so he sent me here to inform the gang leader."

Nan Batian was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Xiaohu and said, "Where is Chen Jiusi? Why didn't he come? Why did he have to ask you to come and report?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Hu immediately clasped his fists and said, "Master, my hall master is seriously injured and has been taken back to the mansion for treatment. Therefore, I am unable to report to you, so I was sent here to report to you."

"Haha, a serious injury that is difficult to recover from? But I heard that your hall master seemed to have walked into Mianshui City, and he walked into Mianshui City side by side with Old Monster Liu. How come he was seriously injured and difficult to recover from the moment he entered the city?"

After hearing this, Xiao Hu clasped his fists and said, "Boss, the enemy is very vicious. They even smeared poison on their weapons. My leader came back poisoned."

"As for what you said about entering the city side by side with Old Monster Liu, and talking and laughing, that was entirely to confuse Old Monster Liu. After all, he took great pains to bring Mr. Tang back intact. If my hall master had not played tricks on Old Monster Liu, I'm afraid Mr. Tang would have been killed by him!"

"My hall master is also trying to make compromises, otherwise who would be willing to chat and laugh with Old Monster Liu and do things that would be misunderstood by the gang members and the gang master? My hall master is completely trying to make compromises, please understand!"

Xiaohu has experienced a lot in the past six months and has become much more slick.

Nan Batian's face was inexpressible when he heard this and he said, "Oh, you have misunderstood your family's head."

"It's definitely a misunderstanding."

Xiaohu said, Nan Batian said: "Okay, I already know what happened today, does your hall master have anything else to say?"

Xiao Hu then clasped his fists and said, "Boss, my hall master asked me to tell you something."

"What did he want to tell me?"

Nan Batian looked at Xiaohu and said, "My hall master said that he has always been loyal to the Fishermen's Gang and has no second thoughts. Please rest assured, but if the Fishermen's Gang cannot tolerate Chen Jiusi, my hall master will not surrender."

"What does he mean?"

After hearing this, Nan Batian frowned and immediately asked angrily: "What does he mean? Is he warning me?"

Xiao Hu said, "I dare not. My hall master said that you will understand some things when Mr. Tang wakes up. As for the rest, I won't say more. My hall master will explain it to Lord Daruhachi."

"What? He's going to look for Darughachi?"

Nan Batian frowned, and Xiaohu said, "Boss, my master said that there are some things that Master Daruhachi should know."

"Farewell!"

After saying that, Xiaohu clasped his fists and left immediately.

Looking at Xiaohu's back as he left, Nan Batian frowned. What did Chen Jiusi mean by this? Was he threatening me?

Nan Batian's face was filled with black lines, but he was helpless. He didn't even know what happened here. Thinking about it, he looked at Tang Ziyue lying in the ox cart and said, "Come here, help Mr. Tang up, take him into the house, and wake him up."

"Yes."

At Nan Batian's command, his younger brothers immediately helped Tang Ziyue, who was lying in the ox cart, up.

After they sent him to the house and helped him up, Tang Ziyue was still unconscious. Several younger brothers looked at each other and said, "The gang leader seemed to say that he wanted to wake Mr. Tang up."

"Yes."

Thinking of this, several people pushed Tang Ziyue together and said, "Mr. Tang, wake up, Mr. Tang, wake up..."

Several people shook Mr. Tang for a long time but he didn't wake up. At this time, a younger brother brought a cup of tea and said, "Get out of the way, I'll do it!"

After saying that, he splashed the water directly on Tang Ziyue's face. A younger brother beside him couldn't dodge in time and cried out in pain: "Damn, hot water! Shaha, Shaha, it's scalding me to death!"

"what!"

After hearing this, the younger brother was immediately shocked and said, "I am so impatient. What should I do?"

Just as I was speaking, I heard Tang Ziyue scream and open his eyes: "Shh~ah~why does it hurt so much!"

After hearing this, the younger brothers looked at each other, and then all looked at the younger brother who poured the hot water. That younger brother's face turned pale, and he bowed repeatedly at this time, saying, "Brothers, please give us some face."

Just as he was thinking, Tang Ziyue opened his eyes and first covered the back of his head, which was very painful.

"Where is this?"

Tang Ziyue asked, then opened her eyes and covered her face with her hands: "Ouch... my face hurts so much!"

After hearing this, several members of the fishing gang looked at each other, and one of them said immediately, "Master Tang, you are finally awake. The gang leader is so worried."

"Boss? Ah, I'm back?"

Several young men from the fishing gang said, "You're back. Do you remember why you fainted?"

After hearing this, Tang Ziyue said, "Well, it seemed that Old Monster Liu came and attacked me, and then I fainted. I can't remember anything after that."

"Oh, I see. I see."

"Sah~ But why does my face hurt too?"

Tang Ziyue looked at the younger brothers of the Fishermen's Gang. After hearing what he said, the younger brothers looked at each other. One of them said, "Hey, Master Tang, I think it was Old Monster Liu and the others who tortured you, right?"

"torture?"

"Yeah, when you fainted, I poured boiling water on your face or something like that."

A little brother said very sincerely.

Tang Ziyue frowned upon hearing this and said, "Nonsense! Even if you want to torture me, can't you wait until I'm awake? Do you have to torture me when I'm confused? And what's the point of pouring boiling water on my face? Is there no other way to punish me?"

"and many more!"

Tang Ziyue frowned and looked at his brothers and said, "There is no smoke without fire in this world. When you say that, are you throwing boiling water on my face?"

"Say!"

Plop, the little brother who poured the boiling water knelt on the ground: "Master Tang, I, I..."

"What do you mean by 'you'? Siha, you are really something. I have a grudge against you, so you are trying to kill me. Hiss, hiss, hiss... slap yourself twice."

"Hey!"

After hearing this, I slapped myself twice, then looked at Tang Ziyue with a horrified face and said, "Master Tang, is this all right?"

"Siha, be more careful next time. Can you throw boiling water on your face? Go get me a towel and some cold water."

"okay."

The younger brother immediately went to throw the towel board, and followed Tang Ziyue and said, "By the way, where is the leader?"

After hearing this, several brothers said, "Let's go and ask the leader for help right away."

"No, I'll go see the gang leader."

Tang Ziyue stood up, shook his dizzy head, and went straight to the gang leader's study. Usually the conversations took place in the study, and at this time the younger brother with the cool towel board also came back and handed it to Tang Ziyue with a cool towel board in his hand.

Tang Ziyue applied it on her face and immediately felt a lot more comfortable, then she went straight into Nan Batian's study.

Come in.

Nan Batian was reading a book there, and he didn't expect his plan to fail.

At this time, Tang Ziyue came in with a towel on her face.

"Gang leader."

Tang Ziyue bowed as soon as he entered the room. Nan Batian looked at him and said, "Ziyue, why is your face so red? Did Chen Jiusi and the others torture you?"

Tang Ziyue said: "Ah, no, no, boss, let's talk business first."

Nan Batian said: "Okay, I just want to ask what's going on, Ziyue, what happened today!"

After hearing this, Tang Ziyue said, "Boss, it's like this..."

……

After telling Nan Batian what happened today, Nan Batian stood up with a bang: "What! Chen Jiusi saw through my plan and cracked it in advance?"

Tang Ziyue said: "Boss, I suspect that there is a traitor of Chen Jiusi in our headquarters, and it is very likely that he is among your assassins!"

"This, how is this possible!"

Nan Batian didn't believe it. He didn't believe that there was anything wrong with his assassins.

Tang Ziyue said: "Boss, only three people knew about this plan, you, me, and the assassin Zhao San. But Chen Jiusi actually found out about what happened in the middle and made corresponding countermeasures. Boss, where do you think the problem lies?"

"Did you tell Chen Jiusi about the plan?"

"Or did I tell Chen Jiusi about the plan?"

"Or did Zhao San tell Chen Jiusi about the plan?"

"Except for the three of us, how did Chen Jiusi know about this? It can't be that God told him!"

After hearing this, Nan Batian fell silent.

He sat there and pondered for a long time. He told Chen Jiusi that it was impossible. The assassins told Chen Jiusi that it was impossible too. Those assassins were absolutely loyal to him. He could even doubt himself but would not doubt these assassins.

that……

Nan Batian turned his eyes to Tang Ziyue.

Could it be him?
Nan Batian also shook his head after thinking about it. Tang Ziyue could be completely trustworthy. It couldn't be him. If it wasn't Tang Ziyue, it wasn't the assassin. Could it really be himself?
Nan Batian thought for a moment and said, "Well, Ziyue, I will look into this matter in detail. By the way, why was Liu Song injured?"

Tang Ziyue heard this and said, "I don't know either. The killer was definitely an accident. I don't know where he came from."

Nan Batian was silent for a long time after hearing this and said, "This matter is very strange. Send someone to check for me who did this to Liu Song and see if we can join forces with them."

Tang Ziyue said: "Well, I'll ask the people in the inner hall to check."

"But, Gang Leader, Liu Song is seriously injured this time. If Old Monster Liu wants to treat Liu Song, he must find a way. So we have to think more about this aspect and see if there is any way to use Liu Song as bait to plot against Old Monster Liu."

After hearing this, Nan Batian said, "Well, I understand. I will let the spies lurking in the Cao Gang pay attention."

"Yes, Boss. Also, I'm afraid Gu Qingfeng from the Ghost Hand Hall has been exposed."

Tang Ziyue mentioned a name, and Nan Batian said, "Yeah, what a pity. Gu Qingfeng was originally a useful chess piece, but now I'm afraid I have to give him up."

Tang Ziyue heard this and said, "In fact, it is a bit too risky to use Gu Qingfeng's relationship to set up this game this time. Once this game is broken, Gu Qingfeng will not be able to hide anymore."

Nan Batian said: "Who would have thought that Chen Jiusi could actually figure out this game? Otherwise, if this game succeeds, Old Monster Liu will lose his son. He won't think of Gu Qingfeng, he will just go crazy and make trouble for Chen Jiusi. By then, Gu Qingfeng will be safe, and our goal will be achieved."

"I have been enemies with Old Monster Liu for so many years, and I know his character very well. This game was supposed to be foolproof, but I never thought that Chen Jiusi would actually smash out a way to survive. It's incredible."

Nan Batian sighed.

Tang Ziyue also said: "Boss, you must be careful with Chen Jiusi. He is not an easy person to deal with, and he often does not play by the rules. If you are not careful, you will be controlled by him!"

"Well, Mr. Tang is right, but the most urgent matter is that Chen Jiusi is going to report today's incident to Darughachi. Am I afraid?"

Tang Ziyue said, "Don't worry, this is nothing. The Zoroastrianism in the north is so violent now, and Darughachi will not force our gang too far. It is more about maintaining stability. After all, the current situation is unstable, and Daqian's ruling power is far less than before. Many people are ready to make a move, and Darughachi has to consider it."

Nan Batian heard this and said, "Well, I hope so, but I'm afraid I have to be patient for a while this time. If I do something in private, I'm afraid something might go wrong."

Tang Ziyue said: "Boss, if you fail in one attack, don't attack again. Be patient for a while, maybe there will be a new opportunity."

"We now have both the righteousness and the advantage in strength. Chen Jiusi is still too immature to want to shake the authority of the gang leader with the strength of the gang."

"What about adding Old Monster Liu?"

Nan Batian asked, Tang Ziyue laughed and said, "Hahaha... Gang leader, you worry too much. Chen Jie can use Darughachi as a helper, so we can also use Darughachi as a helper. The purpose of Darughachi is to check and balance rather than dominate alone. So, Gang leader, haha, even if Chen Jie is in collusion with Old Monster Liu, he dare not do it openly, so you can rest assured."

After hearing this, Nan Batian said, "You mean, Daruhachi will take care of it?"

Tang Ziyue said: "I will definitely take care of it."

After hearing this, Nan Batian was silent for a while, and then said: "Well, that's good. In this case, let's live a peaceful life for a few days. By the way, arrange for someone to bring the lady back to the mansion this afternoon. She has been living in Jixiang Temple for half a month."

"Yes, I'll make arrangements right away."

Tang Ziyue nodded, then covered her face with a towel, but there was an indescribable emotion in her eyes.

Chen Jiusi is indeed a strong opponent, but just because you beat him in this round doesn’t mean you can beat him in the next round.

Chen Jiusi, let’s wait and see!
……

Cao Gang at this time!

Old Monster Liu transported his son back home. At this time, Old Monster Liu's wife, Wang, saw her injured and unconscious son Liu Song and could not bear it anymore.

"My son, how did you become like this? How can I live like this?"

woo woo woo...

"Son!"

At this time, Wang burst into tears, her crying was earth-shaking and also alarmed Bai Mosheng. Bai Mosheng rushed over and saw Old Monster Liu standing there with a gloomy face.

"Boss, what's going on?"

Bai Mosheng asked. Old Monster Liu was also upset at this time. Seeing Wang crying, he immediately said angrily: "Stop howling, your son is not dead yet. If you shake him again, he will really die!"

Hearing this, Wang suddenly turned her head and looked at Old Monster Liu and said, "Mr. Liu, you made my son like this, and I haven't asked you for an explanation yet."

"Tell me, why would my son be like this? Tell me."

"You are still the leader of the gang, what are you talking about? You can't even protect your own son, what are you supposed to protect, my son~"

Wang burst into tears, and Old Monster Liu's face was so gloomy that water could be squeezed out of it.

But he didn't have any temper with Wang because she gave birth to a son for the Liu family.

Old Monster Liu had four wives, but in the end only Wang gave birth to a son. The others couldn't even lay an egg, so Wang's status in the family was very high.

She even dared to say a few words to Old Monster Liu.

A mother is honored by her son. Who made her give birth to a son for the Liu family and continue the family line? She has made a contribution!
Old Monster Liu turned around and left helplessly, saying, "Mr. Bai, follow me."

Bai Mosheng looked at Liu Song and also frowned, his face turned black, a sign of poisoning!

The two entered the study, and Bai Mosheng asked, "Boss, what's going on?"

Old Monster Liu said: "Gu Qingfeng has betrayed us!"

"what?"

Bai Mo was frightened after hearing this. Gu Qingfeng actually betrayed him.

"This, this is not possible?"

Old Monster Liu told Bai Mosheng everything, and he frowned and said, "So, Master Gu colluded with Nan Batian to use the young master as bait to cause a fight between the gang leader and Chen Jiusi?" Old Monster Liu said, "Yes, it's absolutely true, it's true!"

After hearing this, Bai Mosheng said, "This game is really insidious. If they really succeed, with your temper, I'm afraid I can't persuade them!"

Old Monster Liu said, "Of course. If you dare to kill my son, I will kill him!"

Bai Mosheng asked: "What does the gang leader want to do next?"

Old Monster Liu said, "First, I want to capture Gu Qingfeng and punish him according to the gang rules. Second, I want the Zoroastrians to pay a price. I will go find Darughachi in a while and tell him all the channels of the Zoroastrians that Liu Song knows. When the time comes, I will make the Zoroastrians pay a heavy price."

"No!"

After hearing this, Bai Mosheng looked at Old Monster Liu and shouted.

Old Monster Liu was stunned and looked at Bai Mosheng and asked, "Why?"

Bai Mosheng said, "Boss, it's fine to arrest Gu Qingfeng, but you must not tell anyone that the young master once sold ironware to the Zoroastrianism."

"Why?"

Old Monster Liu was stunned and said, "I want to help Daruhachi eliminate the Zoroastrianism, why can't I tell you!"

Bai Mosheng said, "Boss, you are confused. No matter how hard our fishing gang fights with the Cao gang, they are actually no threat to Daluhachi. Only when it comes to Zoroastrianism and iron weapons can they threaten Daluhachi."

"This is a red line that cannot be crossed. Over the years, all those who have had any connection with Zoroastrianism, whether intentionally or unintentionally, have been dealt with by the Darughachi."

"Especially the young master who sold the ironware to the Zoroastrians."

"This is a conspiracy with the Zoroastrians, an attempt to rebel! If you tell him now, the Darughachi will probably arrest you."

"Well, I can't. I'm the leader of the Cao Gang!"

Old Monster Liu spoke, and Bai Mosheng said, "Boss, the Cao Gang can have many bosses. If you lose one, we can always find someone else! But colluding with the Zoroastrianism will definitely lead to death, so boss, listen to me, this matter must not be told to the outside world. By the way, who else knows about this matter?"

Old Monster Liu said: "There is still Chen Jiusi, no one else!"

Bai Mosheng said: "Okay, I will find a chance to tell Chen Jiusi that this matter must not be spread outside. As long as Darughachi knows who has contact with Zoroastrianism, they will be killed without a doubt, and you, Nan Batian, no one will be spared!"

Old Monster Liu said, "This shouldn't be the case. Something similar seems to have happened before, where ironware was sold to Zoroastrianism! It seems that no one was executed!"

Bai Mosheng said, "Boss, things are different now. Since the beginning of last year, the Zoroastrianism uprising in the North has spread to more than 70 counties in 12 prefectures in three continents of the North in just one year. The imperial court sent tens of thousands of troops to suppress it, but it was ineffective."

"The court held them accountable for this, and the officials in the north killed hundreds of people. They also found that the Zoroastrian rebels had a lot of weapons. Three months ago, Prime Minister Tuotuo directly issued an order to strictly investigate the smuggling of ironware. If local authorities fail to control ironware and are found to have smuggled ironware into the Zoroastrian sect, the officials will be exiled at the least and executed on the spot at the worst!"

"In the past three months, seven Darughachis in the north were dismissed on the spot, three were directly executed, the county magistrate killed twelve, and even the prefect killed three. Under such high pressure, all officials in Daqian are in danger."

"Everyone is frantically trying to prevent ironware from being transported north from their own territory. Under such circumstances, you still dare to say that the young master sold pig iron to the Zoroastrians. If the Darughachi finds out, you will be the first one to be killed!"

"Hiss..."

Old Monster Liu touched his head and said, "It's so serious. How did you know all this, Mr. Bai?"

Bai Mosheng opened his fan and said, "The imperial court report."

"Is that the waste paper you bought from the government office at a high price?"

Old Monster Liu looked at Bai Mosheng, and the corner of Bai Mosheng's mouth twitched. As the leader of a gang, couldn't he read a book?
He is the only one who treats the imperial gazette as waste paper. Doesn't he know that the things recorded on these waste papers are life-threatening?

But he didn't say much, after all, he was the gang's white paper fan and had to protect the gang.

I have to say here that the court bulletin is originally secret, but these days it is not difficult to get these things if you have money. Bai Mosheng spends 500 taels of silver every month just to buy the bulletin. Old Weird Liu says that he has money but nowhere to spend it.

Old Monster Liu said, "Then we will just ignore the Zoroastrianism?"

Bai Mosheng heard this and said, "It's not that we don't care, but we can't care. We can't even touch the three words Zoroastrianism in the future. By the way, gang leader, you have to go to the Darughachi Mansion today."

"Ah, didn't you say that I couldn't tell the Darughachi about Zoroastrianism? Then why did I go to the Darughachi Mansion?"

Bai Mosheng said: "Go and give Lord Darughachi a suggestion!"

"suggestion?"

Old Monster Liu frowned slightly: "What suggestions?"

Bai Mosheng said: "Shut down the Beishan Iron Mine!"

"What??"

Old Monster Liu's eyes popped out. "What did you say? Close the Beishan Iron Mine? Are you crazy? The Beishan Iron Mine accounts for one-third of our Cao Gang's income. If we close the Beishan Iron Mine, we brothers will starve!"

Hearing this, Bai Mosheng looked at Old Monster Liu and said, "Boss, I know this decision is a little crazy, but it must be closed, otherwise you will get into trouble sooner or later. If you close it now, not only can you get out of this situation, but you can also leave a good impression on Lord Darughachi. If Lord Darughachi forces you to close Beishan Iron Mine, it will be a different story."

Old Monster Liu narrowed his eyes and looked at Bai Mosheng and asked, "What do you mean?"

Bai Mosheng said: "I read in the latest court bulletin that the court is arranging inspectors to inspect the local areas. They are almost at Huangzhou Prefecture. If they reach Huangzhou Prefecture, then the Darughachi and his men will be within the inspection scope of the inspectors."

"I read in the court reports over the past three months that this inspector has captured three Darughachis from the Mulan tribe all the way south, and one was beheaded for colluding with Zoroastrians and selling pig iron and other military supplies."

"I think Darughachi has been thinking about this recently, and is now considering how to issue orders to you and Nanba Tianxia. In fact, Chen Jiusi is smart. He stopped the mining of Beishan Iron Mine early on. Now, anything related to Zoroastrianism has nothing to do with him, which is the safest thing."

"And now if the gang leader proposes to shut down the Beishan Iron Mine, then you are equivalent to saying what the Darughachi wants to say. How can the Darughachi dislike you and respect you?"

Upon hearing this, Old Monster Liu asked, "But what about the income of the gang?"

Bai Mosheng said: "If you hesitate when you should make a decision, you will suffer the consequences. In fact, the one who suffered the most loss is Nan Batian. His fishing gang is even worse than our Cao Gang. Beishan Iron Mine takes up one-third of our income, while Nan Batian's fishing gang can even take up to one-half."

"We did this, although we suffered heavy losses, but we also lost 180% of our own lives and killed 1,000 enemies, so we made some money!"

Bai Mosheng said to Old Monster Liu, who looked solemn after hearing this. After a long while, he took a breath and made up his mind: "Okay, if you don't sacrifice your child, you can't catch the wolf, and if you don't sacrifice your wife, you can't catch the gangster. I'll fight him!"

Bai Mosheng: (⊙o⊙)… (The gang leader is indeed very talented in writing~)

Old Monster Liu said, "But before I go find Darughachi, I have to catch this bastard Gu Qingfeng first. If he gets away, I won't be able to sleep or eat well!"

After hearing this, Bai Mosheng said, "Boss, let's not rush. Send someone to notify Gu Qingfeng first and tell him to come to the headquarters for a meeting. Keep him stable first! If he dares to come, capture him right here. At the same time, let's go to his villa and block him. Don't let him get away!"

Old Monster Liu said, "It still has to be Mr. Bai. I'll follow your advice."

"Okay, then, I'll send someone first. Gang leader, gather the troops and let's go capture Gu Qingfeng!"

"it is good."

Old Monster Liu agreed immediately.

……

At the same time, in Gu Qingfeng's villa.

"Master, everything is ready."

Gu Qingfeng said, "Well, it's a pity. I have lived in Mianshui County for so many years, but I never thought that I would end up losing everything because of one careless move."

After hearing this, the butler behind him stopped talking.

Gu Qingfeng said: "Pack your valuables, call the guards, and take the young master away first."

"Ah, sir, where are the six ladies?"

Gu Qingfeng said: "I have power, money, and strength. I can find any woman I want. All women should stay with me."

"Ah, sir."

Gu Qingfeng said: "We are fleeing and can't bring too many things, so don't bring useless things."

"This, yes, sir."

The housekeeper responded, and Gu Qingfeng said, "Okay, you guys go now."

As Gu Qingfeng was speaking, he saw a Cao Gang member riding a horse not far away. He dismounted and said, "Master Gu, the leader wants to discuss matters with you."

Gu Qingfeng glanced at the man, then smiled and said, "Oh, OK, tell the gang leader that I'll be there in a minute."

"Well, if the Hall Master is alright, I will send him back to the gang."

After hearing this, Gu Qingfeng showed a sneer on his face, and then he stepped on the tiptoes and disappeared on the spot.

"Master Gu."

Swish!
Click!

The Cao Gang disciple who delivered the message had not yet reacted when he suddenly felt there was someone behind him. He only had time to shout before his neck was broken.

Gu Qingfeng then mounted his horse and said, "Gu Zhong, take the young master and his valuables and head east to Lin'an Prefecture to wait for me."

"Ah, sir, you?"

Gu Qingfeng said, "Haha... I want to stay and have some fun with them. Haha, I, Gu Qingfeng, am a big shot in Mianshui County. It would be bad to be driven away without any reason. You guys go first."

"Yes."

Gu Zhong responded immediately and took his guards to escort the young master away.

Gu Qingfeng turned his horse and headed west, and the west was where the Fishing Gang and Nan Batian were.

After Gu Qingfeng had been gone for about half an hour, Old Monster Liu and the others arrived. They saw an abandoned manor and a few stupid women. Gu Qingfeng had already disappeared.

And the most infuriating thing is that Gu Qingfeng also left him a letter.

[From Mr. Liu]

[Old Monster Liu, I know you have come to arrest me. I also know that you know my affairs, but now that you know, I am not afraid, and I do not regret doing so.]

[You ungrateful bastard, you must have forgotten that it was you and me who helped you get to where you are today. When no one was optimistic about you, it was me and my brother Gu Qingshan who helped you build your career today. For your career, my brother died in battle, but how did you treat me? ]

[I was only assigned to be the Ghost Hand Hall Master, and my status was even lower than that poor scholar Bai Mosheng. I don’t accept it, I have complaints! ]

[But even so, I can tolerate it. What I cannot tolerate is that you are actually going to deprive me of the Beishan Iron Mine for the sake of your unpromising son. Why, why? ]

[How could that little jerk Liu Song bear such a heavy responsibility? For him, you disregarded our original feelings and took away my foundation. If that's the case, don't blame me for being ruthless.]

[It's a pity that Chen Jiusi is causing trouble, otherwise I would have killed that little loser in your family a long time ago. But don't worry, we'll see. One day, you will regret what you did today! ]

[Finally, Old Monster Liu, I wish you no offspring! ]

"what!"

When Old Monster Liu saw the letter, he became furious. His eyes bulged out, and he roared, then with one palm he broke a stone pillar that a man could hug together.

"Gu Qingfeng, I'm going to kill you!"

Old Monster Liu roared, and at this time Bai Mosheng also looked at Xin and said, "Boss, Gu Qingfeng has escaped. It will be difficult to catch him. We can only take a long-term view on this matter. Our top priority now is to hurry to Darughachi Mansion."

Old Monster Liu looked at Bai Mosheng and said, "This beast has done so many things, and I am going to let him off so easily?"

Bai Mosheng said: "Boss, you can kick him out of the Cao Gang first, take back the Ghost Hand Hall first, and then make a long-term plan. Unless he escapes from Mianshui County, he will not be able to escape."

After hearing this, Old Monster Liu said, "I am really pissed off. Back then, the Gu brothers were looked down upon in the gang, but I didn't despise them and nurtured them. I never thought that he would treat me like this. It's simply murderous. I wish I could slap him to death with one palm."

Bai Mosheng said: "People in this world often take others' kindness for granted and regard others' efforts as a habit. The gang leader has no choice but to do this."

Old Monster Liu sighed and said, "Forget it. In this case, I will go to the Darughachi Mansion."

……

White Tiger Hall!
In the inner hall, Chen Jie was shirtless, and Su Yunjin was cleaning Chen Jie's wound with freshly brewed strong liquor.

The wife's eyes were misty with tears at this time. She looked at Chen Jie and said, "Husband, are you in pain?"

Chen Jie said: "It's okay, come."

Chen Jie said something, and then Su Yunjin held a large jar of wine and poured white wine on Chen Jie's wound to clean it.

"Hissssss~"

The white wine washed the wound, and immediately all the blood and pus flowed out. Under the flushing of the white wine, Chen Jie's wound gradually turned from black to pink.

Chen Jie was gritting his teeth in pain, with a slightly ferocious expression.

"Brother-in-law, it doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt!"

Seeing his brother-in-law in so much pain, Xiao Douding immediately ran over, stuffed the candy in his hand into Chen Jie's mouth and said, "Brother-in-law, eat a piece of candy and the pain will go away."

Chen Jie's forehead was covered with cold sweat at this time, and the maid Cui Ju beside him immediately took a wet towel to wipe his sweat.

Chen Jie stretched out his right hand and touched the little bean's head and said, "Well, it's okay. My brother-in-law ate some candy and the pain went away."

As Chen Jie was speaking, Su Yunjin brought over a cotton ball and carefully cleaned Chen Jie's wound. When the wound was almost cleaned, Su Yunjin reached out and took the prepared medicine from Hongmei's hand.

Then sprinkle it evenly on Chen Jie's wound.

This wound medicine was specially prepared by Chen Jie. Its main function is to help blood coagulation and disinfection. It is very useful.

Su Yunjin then carefully sprinkled the golden wound medicine, and then used gauze to help Chen Jie bandage the wound. These were all learned by Su Yunjin from Chen Jie.

Su Yunjin is really strong now and looks like a mistress of the family. She said to Chen Jie: Husband, if you are destined to live on the edge of a knife, then I want to be someone who can help you.

I don't want me to cry in a corner every time you get hurt.

I want to study medicine, and when my husband is injured, I will help him bandage the wound.

Chen Jie was very moved when he heard this, so he taught Su Yunjin some modern first aid knowledge. At first, she was very scared and didn't dare to do anything when she saw the torn flesh and blood, but after a long time, she could skillfully help Chen Jie bandage the wound.

However, even though she was able to bandage the wound skillfully, she was still horrified when she saw Chen Jie's wound.

After the wound was completely bandaged, Su Yunjin couldn't hold back her tears anymore and they flowed out.

"Husband, are you in pain?"

Chen Jie looked at Su Yunjin and said, "It doesn't hurt!"

Hearing this, Su Yunjin looked at Chen Jie's arm and said, "It's all pierced, how can it not hurt?"

Chen Jie smiled and wiped away the tears from Su Yunjin's eyes.

Just then Xiao Hu came back. When he saw this scene, he said, "Hey, brother, sister-in-law, you..."

Su Yunjin's face instantly turned red, but Chen Jie said naturally, "Your sister-in-law loves me. By the way, did you bring the message?"

Xiao Hu said, "Yes, I have brought it here. Brother, are we really going to look for Darughachi?"

Chen Jie said: "It doesn't matter whether you go or not. This matter cannot be concealed. Sooner or later there will be an explanation."

Xiaohu said: "Oh, I don't understand."

Chen Jie looked at Xiao Hu and said, "You will understand later. Xiao Hu, go do something for me now."

"Brother, tell me."

Chen Jie said: "Immediately take people to buy back all the dragon's blood from all the medicine shops in Mianshui County. Oh, and send people to the two neighboring counties to buy back their dragon's blood as well."

"Ah? Draconis, what is that? Why do you buy so much Draconis?"

After hearing this, Chen Jie said, "Haha, find the murderer!"

"Ah? Looking for the murderer? Can this blood be used to find the murderer?"

Chen Jie said: "Haha, of course. In the woods, the murderer hit me with the Dragon Capturing Hand. I hit her lung meridian. She suffered serious internal injuries. To treat this injury, you must use seven kinds of medicinal herbs, including Sanguisorba officinalis, Ganoderma lucidum, and Tripterygium wilfordii. The most indispensable one among them is Sanguisorba officinalis."

"And her injuries cannot be delayed. She must take medication within three days. I estimate that she needs to find a doctor, get a prescription, and buy medicine within three days. She must complete the process within two nearby counties. Otherwise, her injuries will worsen and she will be in danger."

"Let's buy all the dragon's blood now. If she wants the dragon's blood, she will have to take the risk and come to me. Otherwise, hehe..."

"Oh, I understand, Brother Jiusi, you mean, as long as we buy out all the blood, she will have to risk stealing from us if she wants to heal her wounds. Then we can just sit back and wait, right?"

"Ahem, that's right, but Xiaohu, you should read more books. You should wait for the rabbit by the tree. The rabbit is not the pig!"

Chen Jie looked at Xiaohu and emphasized.

The women around all covered their mouths and laughed. Seeing this, Xiaohu scratched his head and laughed too!

 I recommend my brother Zhou Zhongluo Yusheng's new book "Simulation Becomes Reality, Have I Ever Looked Down on the Eternal Years?"

  A simulation article, with a fun start, worth reading when you are short of books to read.
