After hearing this, Mr. Zhang joked: "Didn't you just want to be the son-in-law of that family? Why are you suddenly looking for the Zhang family treasure again? Could it be that you learned some unknown secret?"
What he said meant Xiao Bijing. After all, the Goulan lineage was one of the most mature intelligence agencies in the world.
Xiao Bijing shook her head and said that she came with me today to act as a driver. Since Goulan has appointed me as the young master, it doesn't matter if she drives for the young master. As for the intelligence, there is no substantial progress.
This is the truth.
I got straight to the point and said: "Mr. Zhang showed up at the door for no reason, right? You announced our relationship in public just to let me lean on your big tree. Now that I'm here, don't follow me." I'm playing a riddle. Earlier you said there was news about the Zhang family's treasure. As the son of your ostensibly old friend and a member of the Northern sect, it is reasonable for me to visit the tomb for you."
When it comes to talking, I'm not so reserved.
Mr. Zhang said that a large tomb has indeed been discovered, but many people have died inside because of the crisis. Moreover, even if someone is sent to this tomb, we are not the only team. Who in the entire world is not responsible for the Zhang family treasure? mouth watering?
Especially after I was able to escape safely after obtaining the Zhang Family Treasure, everyone was even more eager to get hold of the Zhang Family Treasure.
I understand.
To be honest, I have no opinion or idea about how many people can go to the grave together, because there are specialties in the art, and even if some schools hire door thieves, they may not be able to get it.
Although thefts are divided into north and south, there are some schools in the north and south. Some become pickpockets, some become locksmiths, and some get into Shenjimen by relying on their unique skills of sliding doors and picking locks. But the real inheritance is still in the hands of the direct descendants of the northern and southern factions. After all, in the world of martial arts, changing families often happens. If the special skills of a family are leaked, it will cause a big problem. But everyone only wants three meals and one night, so you can't force someone to stay.
This is one of the reasons why many martial arts and cultural treasures have been lost.
Having said that, once you go to the tomb, it is like entering another world. If you are not careful, you will die. Those tricks of sliding the door and picking the lock cannot hold up the scene.
See, I don't have any resistance.
Mr. Zhang said: "Since you have decided to visit the tomb with your own body, I will definitely support it. As for the two items in your hand..."
"That's what my buddy and I paid for with our lives. The old man won't have any idea of those two things from me, right?"
"No, what I mean is that you have to keep it safe. The people below said that one of your burglars who specializes in sliding doors and picking locks has entered Shunde. You have to be careful."
"Thank you, old man, for reminding me." I handed over.
Mr. Zhang said: "Let's drink tea."
A cup of tea.
I know that this old fox is about to get down to business. His appearance at the door to build momentum for me is not just for me to help him visit his grave. If that's just the case, then just send a confidant there.
really.
The old fox said: "Li Shang, tell me who killed the fourth director of Cemen? Was he one of yours?"
"What are you talking about, old man?" I put down the tea cup in my hand and said with an unhappy expression: "The fourth director is the only director who is willing to support my girlfriend to win the position of leader. What reason do I have to attack him? And I heard that the fourth director It was the pinnacle of poking at the beginning, but it is the master among the masters in the hanging door."
"As far as I know, one of your two followers is your friend Zhu Huan, and the other one. I saw that his heels are not touching the ground when he walks. This kind of Qinggong should be the way of Suo Mingmen. Some time ago, Suo Mingmen Hu Qi Feng Jiu and I had a fierce battle at the unfinished building in Moon Bay and both disappeared. Cemen said they both died together. I think there is something fishy about this."
As Mr. Zhang spoke, he stared at me, watching the subtle changes in my expression.
Lao Li once said that when dealing with the old fox, you must do the opposite and don't pretend to be stupid. This will only make the other party more convinced of your guess.
The only way to crack it is to admit it generously and add fuel to the fire.
I said: "The old man is worthy of being an old man. You have seen this. Yes, that person is Feng Jiu. Hu Qi wants to kill me, and Feng Jiu wants to save me. I don't know if there is any grudge between the two. The fight was extremely fierce. In the end, I assisted and killed Hu Qi, and used the death of Hu Qi to threaten Feng Jiu to be my assistant. After all, you know that the people who steal the door are not very skilled. What if the door is broken? Even if you put a reward on me, I have to have a bodyguard, right?"
As soon as these words came out, Mr. Zhang had a flash of doubt in his eyes, but it disappeared in an instant, because there was a rule in the Suo Ming Sect, that is, members of the same sect could fight, hurt, and not kill.
I don't expect this old fox to believe what I said, but there are basically no loopholes in what I said. If he goes to check, he can find it.
Of course, Suomingmen could also find out, but Cemen said that Hu Qi and Fengjiu were dead, so Suomingmen would not come out to slap Cemen in the face. After all, Cemen was among the three gods of wealth in the world.
As for taking action against Feng Jiu behind the Suoming Sect, that is a matter for the future.
I said: "If you think Feng Jiu killed the fourth director, you can ask your people to investigate. I will ask him to cooperate fully."
"No, I have no connection with Cemen. Besides, I've already retired from the world. I just like to hear some gossip."
Mr. Zhang laughed, and after we chatted about some insignificant things, I stood up and left.
After leaving the manor, Xiao Bijing said: "Old Fox, you didn't tell us the information and location of the tomb in advance. We had no chance to make any plans in advance."
"What is this person's status in the world?"
"Out of etiquette, he has to surrender to me at that age. What do you think his status is?"
"Which one is he from?"
"I don't know this. My master may know it, but..."
I waved my hand: "Send me back to the medicine store. Feng Jiu and Zhu Huan should have gone back."
After Xiao Bijing listened, she drove silently.
After a while, when she was about to turn into the Ghost Street two streets away, she asked: "Do you think Zhou Ya can take the position of leader?"
"Why are you so active?"
"I want to know who was the person who used the sect to force my master to death."
"What if it's someone you can't afford to offend?"
"Then just accumulate a lot of money, ten years is not too late."
"If you really want to know, then I think you'd better find a few people you trust to investigate this Mr. Zhang."
"Is he suspicious?" Xiao Bijing looked at me with intelligent eyes.
I said: "Why do seven of the eight directors suddenly have to support Zhou Yan? Do you think this is normal? He suddenly appeared at the door, seemingly to stand up for me, but in fact he was standing up for Zhou Yan and Huang Wei Even if he is not the driving force behind it, he is still highly suspicious."
She said: "Tell me about it."
