In the room filled with the smell of herbs, Ji Hong stood there, straight as a javelin.
"Ah..." Ji Hong sighed deeply, and glanced at the crippled and decadent Bai Qi, "Bai Qi, you are so confused! Originally, with your talent and background, I, Gui Yuanzong, would definitely train you hard. The commanding position cannot be held for a few years, and in a few years, the commanding position must be selected from the three under my command. All three are selected, and your strength is not much behind the other two, and you are the youngest, I return to Yuan Zong, if you want to cultivate, of course you must cultivate those with potential. With your strength and your status as a core disciple, it is not impossible to take the leadership position! But now you... "
Hearing Ji Hong's comforting and sighing words, Bai Qi felt sad for a moment.
The originally bright future has now become dark.
"Master!" Bai Qi cried out in tears, crying in pain, "I am not reconciled, I really am, Master, you have to avenge your disciple!"
"Cry, still cry!" Ji Hong scolded.
Bai Qi's master is Ji Hong's disciple, and Ji Hong is of course more concerned about this disciple in his heart.
Bai Qi refrained from crying, but felt sad in his heart.
"What's the use of crying again? Who are you blaming?" Ji Hong hated him for not being able to live up to his expectations, "If you didn't have the idea of taking the purple gold all by yourself, why..."
"Master, I, I want to take back Zijin for the clan." Bai Qi said repeatedly.
"Still talking hard!" Ji Hong's face turned cold, "If you are in the sect, why did you follow that hard worker all the way, directly on the mountain, when the Hu Tong searched for people, you directly ordered someone to search that hard worker, wouldn't it be a crime? Do you still need to follow all the way to the foot of the mountain before attacking? You give an order, five hundred black armored soldiers! Not to mention the three or four first-rate warriors, even one hundred first-rate warriors, in the face of five hundred black armored troops charging and killing flight!"
Shirasaki's mouth moved, but he fell silent.
Anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that it was just that Bai Qi was disabled, and he wanted to save himself some face.
Seeing Bai Qi's miserable condition, Ji Hong didn't say anything more.
"You, Bai Qi, are also a hero of the Black Armor Army. Didn't you just have a broken leg and an arm?" They are all crippled, but relying on just one pair of legs, they even created the 'Spirit Snake Kick Technique', which was listed in the "Tian Bang" and became famous all over the world!"
Shirasaki gritted his teeth and wanted to say something, but he didn't.
That Patriarch Liu Tianxue had two legs, but Bai Qi only had one.
"Hmph, don't look like a dead parent!" Ji Hong's eyes were sharp, "It's contemporary, let me ask you, who is the third place in the "District List"?"
Shirasaki was startled.
"Tang, Tang Han!" Bai Qi thought of the man's deeds.
"This Tang Han was also a generation of young heroes who were extremely talented and famous all over the world. He was listed in the "Hidden Dragon List". When he was 21 years old, his feet and hands were crippled by the enemy! This Tang Han, that's a hand tendon His hamstrings were all severed, so he could only sit on a chair. It can be said that he was powerless! But he has been immersed in the classics of hidden weapons for thirty years! Once he showed up, with that unparalleled hidden weapon, he once Killed hundreds of first-class fighters!" Ji Hong said coldly, "Who dares to say that he can win against Tang Han among acquired masters? His hidden weapon is unfathomable. The 'Fairy Scattering Flowers' is feared even by innate masters." If it wasn’t for the handicap and restrictions on movement, it’s possible for him to be number one in the “Earth Rankings”!”
There are tens of millions of acquired masters in Kyushu, which is hard to count.
There are seventy-two positions on the "Earth Ranking", generally with similar rankings, and the strength is almost equal, everything depends on the reaction of the on-the-spot fight.
Shirasaki lowered his head.
Indeed, Tang Han, the situation is much worse than him, he still has one leg and one arm that can exert strength.
"I also admire Tang Han." Ji Hong sighed, "When he was disabled, what was the first thing he did?"
"This..." Bai Qi was taken aback for a moment, and then said, "Get married!"
"Yes, he is handicapped, and the first thing he did was to get married. He has nine wives, eight sons, and six daughters!" At the same time, he is teaching his children! Among his eight sons, which one is not a powerful master of hidden weapons? When mentioning the "Eight Heroes of the Tang Sect", who doesn't give a thumbs up? Who dares to provoke them in the Tang family? Tang Han, when he worked hard to teach his children, he thought that even if he couldn’t work hard on his own, he would rely on his children to prop up the sky in the future! Who in the world doesn’t respect Tang Han when he mentions it? As for you, once you become disabled, you become decadent like this !"
When Bai Qi thought of Tang Han, his heart felt hot.
Many thoughts came to mind at once.
But in just a moment, he felt discouraged, and thought to himself: "The art of concealed weapons is endless. Even Mr. Tang's talent took thirty years. I, I... can I do it?"
Ji Hong glanced at Bai Qi, and shook his head secretly. As his disciple, his journey from childhood to adulthood has been smooth and smooth, without any major setbacks. There are killings all day long on the land of Kyushu, and there are countless disabled. There are very few people who have made a name for themselves, and those who can succeed are all people with perseverance.
"If you haven't done it yet, you don't have confidence in yourself. How can you do it?" Ji Hong sighed secretly.
"Master, tell me..." As soon as Bai Qi opened his mouth, Ji Hong yelled: "If you want to achieve great achievements in a disabled body, you should strive for self-improvement. For the rest, you can think about it slowly, no one can help you." You!" After finishing speaking, Ji Hong strode out of the house, leaving only Bai Qi sitting on the bed in a daze.
*****
The five of Teng Qingshan gathered outside Baiqi's house, although it was late at night, the surroundings were brightened by the torches.
"Squeak!"
The door opened, and Ji Hong walked out with a cold face.
"Come with me." Ji Hong glanced at the five people, then walked forward, Teng Qingshan and the five people looked at each other, and followed Ji Hong silently.
After walking about tens of feet, Ji Hong stood still when he came to the dimly lit place.
"Teng Qingshan!" Ji Hong shouted.
"Master Commander." Teng Qingshan bowed slightly.
Ji Hong suddenly turned around and looked at him: "Let me ask you, this Zijin has been stolen for a day, have you found out how exactly this Zijin was stolen?"
"Not yet." Teng Qingshan answered succinctly, and did not make much excuses for himself.
Ji Hong looked at Teng Qingshan and nodded inwardly. He hated those who would shirk their responsibilities when encountering problems, Ji Hong couldn't help shaking his head secretly comparing Teng Qingshan with his disciple 'Bai Qi' in his heart. Then he said coldly: "The Zijin mining area is of great importance! I return to the Yuanzong, the suzerain, the elders, they all value this very much. If you fail to guard, I will not punish you for the time being. I will limit you, within ten days , Find out the reason why Zijin was stolen! The other four centurions, cooperate with Teng Qingshan!"
"Yes!" Teng Qingshan cupped his hands.
"Yes!" The other four centurions also bowed.
"If you find it, then let it go. If you can't find it within ten days..." Ji Hong's face darkened.
"Don't worry, Commander, within ten days, my subordinates will definitely find out the reason why Zijin was stolen." Teng Qingshan said sonorously.
Stealing is no more than a few methods, no matter there are thieves inside or there are secret passages underground, there must be one thing - among the hard workers in the Zijin mining area, someone collected the Zijin. Therefore, during the interrogation by the sergeants of the Black Armored Army, there must have been some hard workers lying. Ordinary sergeants don't understand whether a person is lying or not, but Teng Qingshan is not difficult to find out according to the interrogation method of killers in his previous life.
Using Teng Qingshan's method to deal with these ordinary hard workers, from the eyes, expressions, etc., it will take only a few days to find out.
"Okay!" Ji Hong sneered, "I hope you don't brag about it!"
"Also." Ji Hong glanced at the five people, "The captain of Huafeng City's city guard 'Hu Tong', the foreign thief, can you catch him?"
"Master Commander, Hu Tong left quietly when the incident happened this morning," Tian Dan said.
"Master Commander, what should we do to this Hu Tong?" Wan Fanxiang also asked.
Ji Hong said indifferently: "When it comes to stationing in the mining area, the sect has always had strict rules and regulations! This Hu Tong is a thief from outside, even if he is the captain of the city guard, it is useless. Send an order, Hu Tong is wanted in Jiangning County! Anyone who can catch Hu Tong Tong Tong or whoever kills Hu Tong on the spot, will give you a thousand taels of silver and me a copy of Gui Yuanzong's human-level secret book!"
Kill Hutong
Teng Qingshan secretly sighed in his heart, that Hu Tong was originally the captain of the city guard, but because of this matter, Hu Tong didn't even have a chance to defend himself, so he was directly executed!
after all…
Gui Yuanzong attaches great importance to the Zijin deposit, and this time, one of them was disabled. How could Gui Yuanzong be merciful? If there is a wrong kill, don't let it go, this is the rule!
…
As soon as the next day dawned, Teng Qingshan ordered the sergeants of the Black Armored Army to search the Zijin mining area carefully. The other four centurions also assisted Teng Qingshan and asked the sergeants under his command to help Teng Qingshan.
All of a sudden, the entire mining area was in panic!
For three whole days, they searched all over the Zijin mining area, but they couldn't find the secret passage, and it was difficult for the insiders to find it. Teng Qingshan immediately began to question those miners who mined purple gold. It is definitely not enough for one person to accumulate ten catties of purple gold. Therefore, Teng Qingshan's first step is-
Find out who will help collect the purple gold of other hard workers, and hand it over to the sergeant of the Black Armor Army.
After checking, there are fifteen people who are recognized leaders among the hard workers. They will often collect Zijin and pay them uniformly.
From these fifteen people, Teng Qingshan only spent half a day to confirm that three of them had suspicions!
Then...
It's that simple!
Directly let the sergeants of the Black Armored Army use the means of interrogating criminals, intimidation, threats of torture, etc., as soon as the Black Armored Army put down their positions, one person was scared to speak out, and the interrogation started for only half an hour, and the other two were also scared. Everything has to be explained.
After all, these three people are just ordinary civilians and have not received special training, so how could they resist special interrogation.
It turned out that there was more than one way to steal Zijin out.
And the method of smuggling out the ten catties of purple gold has also been found out. There is indeed a secret passage, but the passage is small and usually blocked with ore, etc. In addition, the place is deep and inconspicuous, and there are tunnels deep in the mine. There were so many that the Black Armor Army sergeant searched for three days, but failed to find out the secret place.
