Chapter 691: Candidate

Bai Hu opened the file and only glanced at it twice. His face suddenly changed. After a while, his pupils shrank and his face even turned blue.

Qi Ning was calm and relaxed in the audience at this time.

Last night he led Ximen Zhanying to capture Cao Wei, knowing that it would be best for people from the Shenhou Mansion to come forward in person, as this would be more lethal to White Tiger.

It is really easy to do this. Ximen Zhanying has always wanted to make a great contribution. Last night, Qining handed Cao Wei and the others to Ximen Zhanying, asking Ximen Zhanying to just say that she had cracked the case by herself, without mentioning her own. Although Ximen Zhanying is a little embarrassed, Qining's doing this is like sending a great achievement to Ximen Zhanying.

Ximen Zhanying naturally didn't want to take credit, but she was full of awe in Qining's disguise as a beggar. Since Qining asked her to do this, she would naturally not refuse.

Everything went as Qining expected. The Shenhou Mansion found out about Cao Wei and used him to attack Bai Hu.

Bai Hu had a loophole like Cao Wei, and was caught by Qi Ning. Naturally, Qi Ning tried his best to exploit it.

He has always been puzzled. Bai Hu and Lu Shanghe worked together and took great risks to attack Baiying. Of course, there was an extremely powerful backer behind this. Qining once suspected that the backer behind it was the Shenhou Mansion. However, there were some contradictions in it. It also made him unsure.

And this time is the best opportunity to test out the backer behind Bai Hu.

If the Shenhou Mansion really wants to use Bai Hu to replace Xiang Baiying and take this opportunity to control the Beggar Gang, then even if the Shenhou Mansion gets Cao Wei, it will definitely not use this leverage against Bai Hu. If this is the case, from the court From this perspective, it is not a bad thing that the Shenhou Mansion can use the White Tiger to control the Beggar Gang, and Qining does not have to ruin the Shenhou Mansion's plan.

And the Shenhou Mansion used Cao Wei to attack Bai Hu, which proved that the backer behind Bai Hu was definitely not the Shenhou Mansion. In this way, he could also use the power of the Shenhou Mansion to get rid of the Bai Hu.

He thought deeply about it, and everything went exactly as he envisioned.

Everything that happened now proved that there was someone else behind Bai Hu and Lu Shanghe, so Bai Hu could not be allowed to ascend to the position of gang leader under any circumstances. With the Shenhou Mansion in front, he did not have to rush to come forward. If he did not have to, It would naturally be a better result if he stepped forward and directly pulled Bai Hu down from the Shenhou Mansion.

Elder Baihu glanced at the file a few times and finally threw it back to Qu Xiaocang. Qu Xiaocang took it and said with a smile: "Elder Baihu, it has Cao Wei's signature on it. Logically speaking, we can already put Cao Wei's signature on it." He was escorted to the capital and imprisoned directly in the Shenhou Mansion Prison. But when your Beggar Clan holds a meeting here, if you take away one helmsman and two hall leaders of the Beggar Clan without knowing the meeting, it will inevitably cause misunderstandings. Now the file I’ve also let you take a look at it in person, what do you think?”

Elder Baihu looked coldly as he stared at Cao Wei in the audience. Cao Wei was naked, the sun was warm and even a little hot, but Cao Wei lowered his head and his body was shaking a little.

"The gang has gang rules." Elder Baihu finally said: "Cao Wei violated the gang rules and his crime is unpardonable. The Beggar Gang will naturally punish him severely."

Qu Xiaocang smiled and said: "Cao Wei's crimes are too great and unscrupulous, so he must be brought back to the Shenhou Mansion for severe punishment. Qiu Jiu and Mu Baixing are also those whom the Shenhou Mansion has been pursuing. The most important criminals will be brought back to the capital this time." He raised his arms and circled them, saying: "Dear friends in the world, as well as brothers from the Beggar Clan, Cao Wei has bullied men and women over the years, and he has ten men on hand. Several innocent lives must be put to death. The Shenhou Mansion came here today to make it clear to everyone, so please don’t misunderstand."

Everyone in the Beggar Clan was whispering, but no one dared to say anything to the Shenhou Mansion at this time.

Ximen Zhanying couldn't help but said at this time: "There is a leader of the Beggar Clan, two hall masters under him, a flower-picking thief, and a traitor who deceived his master and destroyed his ancestors. Such people can enter the Beggar Clan. Elder Baihu, we can even give him You are charged with harboring the scum of the world. If you say you know nothing about this, that is also a crime of oversight."

Bai Hu's face was livid and he said coldly: "I am indeed responsible for the oversight. I will only apologize to the brothers in the gang."

At this time, Cao Yang, who was at the helm of the Void Sun Rat, had already stood up and said loudly: "Elder Baihu, what Chief Wei said just now is right. You, Elder Baihu, are really not suitable for the position of leader of the Beggar Clan."

Originally, Bai Hu was going to be the gang leader, and the leaders of the Northern Qisu Branch were a little unconvinced. However, among the people present today in the Beggar Clan, Bai Hu did have the highest qualifications, and he also had an Aoki ring in his hand. Everyone present, It is true that he is the only one who can naturally succeed as the leader of the gang.

But the Shenhou Mansion brought Cao Wei, and the situation changed immediately. Cao Yang and others naturally would not miss such an opportunity.

After Cao Yang finished speaking, many people nodded in agreement. Although Bai Hu's face was ashen, he still looked very calm and said loudly: "Who is suitable to take on the responsibility of gang leader? This is the business of our Beggar Gang. There are many capable people in our Beggar Gang." , naturally there will be no shortage of people to take on the big responsibilities, and if we continue to discuss it, there will be no problem." Looking at Qu Xiaocang, he said: "Since Qu Xiaocang said that the Shenhou Mansion wants to deal with Cao Wei, I won't say more at the moment. What, just take them away. But when our Beggar Gang elects its leader, whether our Beggar Gang will deal with Cao Wei on its own or your Shenhou Mansion will deal with it, everything will naturally be decided by the new gang leader. When the time comes, the new gang leader will naturally decide. I will negotiate with you." He raised his hand and said, "Come, send the officials of the Shenhou Mansion away."

He acted as if he were driving away the Shenhou Mansion, and he deliberately emphasized the word "official". He obviously wanted to remind everyone present that the Shenhou Mansion represented the imperial court after all, and aroused everyone's resentment towards the Shenhou Mansion.

Qu Xiaocang smiled slightly and said: "The Shenhou Mansion will never interfere in the internal affairs of the Beggar Clan. Since Elder Baihu said that the new leader will negotiate with our Shenhou Mansion at that time, the new leader of the Beggar Clan should be elected at the Qingmu Conference today. For a case like this, the sooner it is resolved, the better. We will wait at the foot of the Western Mountain until the new leader of the Beggar Clan shows up to handle the matter together." He cupped his hands and said calmly: "Let's go!"

Everyone in the Shenhou Mansion did not waste any time and left the observatory with the three criminals Cao Wei.

After everyone in the Shenhou Mansion had gone far away, Bai Hu raised his hands and said, "Brothers, my discipline is not strict. There are many things in the gang on weekdays, but I didn't notice that Cao Wei had done such an outrageous thing." Suddenly he raised his eyebrows. He tore off a piece of his clothes and said in a deep voice: "From today on, I no longer have anything to do with Cao Wei, nor do I have any relationship between master and disciple. As the elder of Baihu, I will expel Cao Wei and never return to the Beggar Clan."

His tone was decisive, which made Qi Ning laugh in his heart, thinking to himself, isn't it too late to make such a gesture now? He stood up and said loudly: "Elder Baihu, there is nothing wrong with you severing the master-disciple relationship with Cao Wei. For such a despicable and shameless person to stay in the Beggar Clan, it will bring humiliation to our Beggar Clan. But you want to expel him from the Beggar Clan." Help, it’s too early.”

Bai Hu was startled, but he obviously expected Qin Ning to be in trouble with him, and asked: "What do you think, Captain Wei, what do you say?"

"If Cao Wei is expelled from the Beggar Clan by you now, how will the Beggar Clan punish him for the crimes he committed? He is not a disciple of the Beggar Clan, how will we punish him?" Qi Ning said slowly: "Even if we have to expel him, The Beggar Clan also waits until the gang leader is elected before making a decision."

Bai Hu nodded slightly and said: "What Master Wei said is very true, but I am impatient." He added: "Although I have severed the master-disciple relationship with this person, the crimes he committed before were, after all, due to my lack of supervision. Naturally, he will be punished according to the gang rules."

Lu Shanghe, who had been on the stage for a long time, suddenly said: "Elder Baihu took the initiative to take on the responsibility, which is admirable. But with all due respect, the most important thing right now is to elect a gang leader, stabilize the beggar gang and the people of the world, and if the beggars implement the According to the gang rules, it’s not too late to deal with it after the gang leader is elected.”

At this time, someone in the audience suddenly said: "Brothers, it's not that we don't agree with Elder Baihu taking over as the leader of the gang. It's just that the Cao Wei incident will soon spread throughout the world. This will have a great impact on Elder Baihu's reputation. If Elder Baihu If I take over as gang leader again, I'm afraid... there will be a lot of gossip in the world."

Everyone looked at the sound, and the person speaking was Bai Shenghao, who was in charge of the Ghost Golden Sheep.

However, Bai Shenghao's words touched the minds of many people. Many people nodded. When Bai Shenghao saw some people nodding, he felt confident and said loudly: "With all due respect, of the two elders present today, Elder Bai Hu has the higher qualifications. He has the Aoki ring in his hand, and he should have succeeded him. But now that Elder Baihu is not suitable, in my humble opinion, Elder Suzaku will take over!"

Many people secretly think that you are a subordinate of Elder Suzaku, so it is only natural for you to propose that Elder Suzaku succeed you as the leader of the gang.

Qi Ning thought to himself that if Elder Zhuque succeeded Bai Hu, he would be far better than Bai Hu, and immediately said: "What Master Bai said is absolutely true. Elder Zhuque is generous and is the best candidate for the gang leader." He glanced at Mao Hu'er and said, Mao Huer and others immediately understood and stood up and said: "Yes, since Elder Baihu cannot take on the important task, Elder Suzaku is the most suitable candidate."

Elder Zhuque was a little surprised. He obviously did not expect that the helmsmen of the Eastern Qisu Branch would also support him. He was startled for a moment. At this moment, he heard Elder Baihu say loudly: "Everyone, Elder Zhuque is naturally suitable, but if there is no I don’t agree with anyone who is more suitable than Elder Suzaku.”

Bai Shenghao recommended Elder Suzaku, and received support from Qi Ning and others. His confidence was boosted, and he immediately asked: "Elder Baihu, among those present today, I don't know who is more suitable to take over as the leader of the gang than Elder Suzaku?"

Elder Baihu smiled faintly and said: "The person I'm talking about has excellent martial arts and a very high reputation in the world. He is both civil and military and has outstanding talents. The most important thing is that this person has a deep relationship with the gang leader, and it is a life-long friendship. , with all due respect, if you really want to choose a gang leader, this person will be more suitable than Elder Suzaku if the reputation of our Beggar Clan is not compromised."

Everyone looked at each other, and Bai Shenghao asked again: "Who is Elder Baihu talking about?"

Bai Hu raised his hand and pointed at Lu Shanghe beside him, and said: "It is this Master Lu!"

As soon as these words came out, many people were stunned, and some even almost laughed out loud, thinking to themselves that Elder Baihu had lost the chance to ascend to the position of gang leader. Could it be that he was also confused? How could the Beggar Clan choose Lu Shanghe as gang leader? Come to take over, this Lu Shanghe is the owner of Yinghe Villa, how can he be the leader of the Beggar Clan
