After Ji Cangyu left Ji Lie and Ji Yunwen at the inn, he took the other six people to Beifeng Village.
Originally, Ji Cangyu wanted Ling'er to stay in the inn, but how could Ling'er be willing? Later, Ji Cangyu considered that leaving Ling'er in the inn might not be safer even with the protection of the two Yixingmen, so he agreed to let Ling'er go to Beifeng Village with him.
The group of people waited outside the gate of Beifeng Village for a while before someone answered the door.
The person who came out was the young leader of Beifeng Village, the Sixth Leader Wang Ye.
Wang Ye was so enthusiastic when he saw Ji Cangyu nodding and bowing. He said: "It turns out that the Master of Ji Village is here. I am sorry for the delay in welcoming you!"
Gong Ming and Zhang Ziran looked at each other, feeling that the people in Beifeng Village were not as vicious as Shopkeeper Wu described them!
"The reason for Ji's sudden visit is..." Before Ji Cangyu could tell the purpose of his visit, he was interrupted by Wang Ye.
"It's such an unlucky time for Master Ji to come! Our village leader and several other leaders are not here! So I, a speechless person, was left in the village." Wang Ye said with a smile.
"Isn't the leader of Teng Village here?" Ji Cangyu immediately saw through the other party's trick and said, "That's okay, we don't have anything else important to do. Let's just wait here for the leader to come back?"
"This..." Wang Ye twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "The village master and the others may not come back so soon!"
Ji Cangyu looked at the sky and said, "It's almost Shen hour now. When it gets dark, Master Teng Village should be back, right?"
"To tell you the truth! Something happened in Gaoyakou Village recently. The village leader and others went out to seek refuge for fear of getting into trouble. They won't be back for ten days and a half." Wang Ye had no choice but to show off his cards.
"Afraid of causing trouble?" Ji Cangyu said with a smile, "Does the leader of Teng Village think that he can stay out of it by just escaping?"
Wang Ye did not answer.
Ji Cangyu continued: "Perhaps Master Teng thought that after evading for a while, this matter would become a minor matter and pass away like a trivial matter? Then please ask the Sixth Master to tell Master Teng that Ji will definitely investigate this matter to the end! "
"Why are you serious?" Wang Ye said awkwardly.
"Then Ji will go back today and come back for a visit tomorrow. I hope Master Teng can come back tomorrow." After Ji Cangyu finished speaking, he turned around and went back.
Seeing that Ji Cangyu was finally sent away by him, Wang Ye let out a long breath and walked back.
Ling'er turned her head and stared at the door of the cottage that had been closed. She took advantage of Wang Ye's opening to peek inside, hoping to discover some secrets.
However, Ling'er only saw a large shooting range inside the cottage gate. There was no one else on the shooting range except a few servants who were cleaning.
But the moment the door was closed, Ling'er caught a sharp gaze directed at him from inside the door. This look was so profound that Ling'er's heart beat wildly for several times.
Who looked at me the moment the door closed? Ling'er wanted to know.
After leaving Beifeng Village, Zhong Long couldn't help but ask: "Master, why did you just leave like this? That Wang Ye was obviously looking for an excuse to send us away."
"Did you see it too?" Ji Cangyu asked without answering.
"Although what Wang Ye said later is quite true, I still feel that Teng Fei is in the village." Zhong Long expressed his thoughts.
"What do you think?" Ji Cangyu asked the others.
"I also agree with Young Master Zhong Long's point of view." Gong Ming was the first to express his position.
"They do want to escape those responsibilities, but instead of going out to escape, they stay at home without seeing anyone." Zhang Ziran analyzed.
"I think so too." Zhong Gong also expressed his position.
Then, Ji Cangyu looked at Xu Jun.
Xu Jun was stunned, not expecting Ji Cangyu to suddenly ask him. How could he worry about these little things that had nothing to do with him? He replied casually: "Why bother to think about whether these are available? If we go straight in, are we afraid that we won't be able to see their village leader?"
Ji Cangyu was disappointed with Xu Jun's answer and sighed secretly before saying, "We are here to investigate the truth, not to cause trouble. If we forcefully break in, how will we be different from these bandits?"
"Then don't ask me! I don't understand what you are saying." Xu Jun said impatiently. How could he not understand? He was just too lazy to get involved in these trivial matters.
Ji Cangyu looked embarrassed and said to Gong Ming and Zhang Ziran, "I made you two laugh."
Zhong Gong came out to ease the atmosphere and said, "Master, you didn't answer Zhong Long just now! You knew Teng Fei must be inside, why did you leave like that?"
Ji Cangyu put aside the matter of persuading Xu Jun and explained: "Can we see Teng Fei if we don't leave? Even if Teng Fei changes his mind and is willing to see us, he won't let us in immediately. Wouldn’t that be slapping himself in the mouth?”
"Yes!" Zhong Long suddenly realized.
Ji Cangyu continued: "We are leaving to give Teng Fei a step down and leave him some face. I believe that Wang Ye will convey our intentions to Teng Fei, and Teng Fei will understand that escaping cannot solve the problem. "
"If Teng Fei figures it out, he will be willing to see us tomorrow." Zhong Long said happily.
"But what I'm worried about is that he can't figure it out." Gong Ming put forward his own idea.
"What should we do?" Zhong Long asked.
"The only clue right now is Beifeng Village. Regardless of whether Teng Fei is the mastermind of this matter, we have to ask him face to face. After all, Beifeng Village has collected protection fees from Gaoyakou Village for so many years, and the big and small things in the village are still unclear. Who knows better than him?" Ji Cangyu said.
"But what if he still refuses to show up tomorrow?" Zhong Gong asked worriedly.
"Let's talk about it tomorrow!" Ji Cangyu said.
"Disciple thinks we should make preparations early and explore Beifeng Village tonight." Zhong Gong said.
"This is a good idea!" Gong Ming agreed.
"A night visit to Beifeng Village can only confirm whether Teng Fei is in the village. What else can we get?" Ji Cangyu asked rhetorically.
Zhong Gong and Gong Ming looked at each other, but neither one answered.
"I know you want to arrest Teng Fei and force him to find out the truth." Ji Cangyu said and looked at them. Seeing that they did not deny it, he continued, "But this is a bad idea. We all believe that the mastermind is someone else, and Now we need to ask Teng Fei for help if we want to find the person behind the scenes. So unless it is absolutely necessary, we must treat him with courtesy."
"I understand!" Everyone nodded.
"Didn't Shopkeeper Wu say that Yixingmen also sent people to Gaoyakou Village to investigate? I think they will definitely go to Beifeng Village to find Teng Fei. If Tengfei is not seen, what will Yixingmen do?" Zhong Gong said, looking at Gong Ming and Zhang Ziran.
Zhang Ziran replied: "I must go back and report to my superiors. As for what action will be taken, we cannot guess."
"Ji is very curious about how Yixingmen will deal with it." Ji Cangyu said.
