Chapter 174
Five miles north of Yonghui City, Yongxing Fort, the headquarters of the Zishan School.

"What!?" The Great Elder Jiao Chengtong was furious, smashed the teacup in his hand, and said angrily, "Who is so bold that he dares to hurt my Zishan sect disciple? Don't you want to live?"

"This person is said to be Tangzhou's newly-appointed prisoner, named Xu Zun," a Disciple Hui reported, "This person is surrounded by expert guards, and he is fierce. All eleven of my disciples were cut off by them! Gao Cheng was also arrested. Brother!"

"What!? There's no reason for that!" Jiao Chengtong said tremblingly, "A little Tangzhou was punished for daring to hurt my son and arrest my beloved apprentice, it's really boring!
"Even if Li Yan is here, he still has to give us Zishan face, what is a small punishment? I really don't know what to do!

"Come on!" He waved his big hand and ordered to all his disciples, "Assemble my manpower immediately, and follow me to the yamen to ask for someone. If I can't get justice today, I will burn the yamen down with a torch! What a deception!" Too much, hum..."

"Yes!" Some of the subordinates went down immediately, and began to organize the staff according to the elder's order.

When he became a master, he waved to his disciples, and some disciples immediately handed him a long sword.

However, he hadn't finished wearing the long sword yet, and another disciple came to report in a hurry.

"Great Elder, Great Elder, it's not good, it's not good..." The disciple fell to his knees and hurriedly reported, "Senior brother Gao Cheng has been beheaded by them!"

"What!!?" Jiao Chengtong couldn't believe it, and asked, "You...you say it again!"

"Brother Gao Cheng was beheaded by the yamen," the disciple took out a notice from his pocket and said, "They not only beheaded brother, but also issued a notice to warn others!"

"what?"

Jiao Chengtong took the notice and checked it. At first, he was full of anger, but after reading the notice, he couldn't help but gasped.

But see the notice that reads:

...Tangzhou Prosecution Xu Zun was ordered to inspect Yonghui. He met Gao Cheng, a madman who killed someone in the street, and arrested him.

Now that the evidence is conclusive and the law of the country does not allow it, he must be executed on the spot to set the record straight.

In the future, if there are any criminals who disregard the law, commit crimes, and wantonly kill people, they will be dealt with severely and will not be tolerated...

"Xu Zun..." Jiao Chengtong felt something faintly, and the previous anger turned into deep doubts, "What does it mean to inspect by order? Is this the emperor or the queen mother's intention?"

"Great Elder," said the disciple who came to report, "I heard from the people in the yamen that this Xu Zun is carrying...all...all inner guards!"

"Ah!!?" ​​Jiao Chengtong was stunned for a moment, and muttered, "Neiwei... It seems that this guy came prepared! No wonder he is so arrogant..."

"That's right, Great Elder," said a high-ranking disciple beside him at this time, "It is said that the visitor is not kind, so we must not act impulsively, lest we fall into a trap!"

"However, Gao Cheng is my beloved disciple, so he was cut off by them, how can he be so angry?" Jiao Cheng gritted his teeth in a breath, and said after a moment of weighing, "It seems that we have to call everyone else over to discuss it together. Already!"

"Report..."

While talking, another disciple came to report from outside.

"What's the matter?" Jiao Chengtong asked.

"Report to the Great Elder," the disciple reported, "this disciple was ordered to monitor the Tangzhou torture group, and they... they actually went to the head of the Tan Gang!"

"Ah?" Jiao Chengtong stroked his gray beard, frowned and said, "Go to the helm of the Tan Gang? What is this for? Is there still a need for a union?

"No," he became more worried, and immediately said, "Even if the sect master retreats, he must report to him..."

……

At the same time, the chief rudder of the Tan Gang.

The main rudder of the Tan Gang is not in Yonghui City, but it is not far away. It is a stockade full of earthen kilns.

As the name suggests, Charcoal Gang started by burning charcoal, and up to now it has inherited the tradition of burning charcoal. Those earthen kilns are all used for burning charcoal.

The leader of the Charcoal Gang is named Huashi, which is naturally a popular name in the world. Some people say that he loves growing flowers, so he got his name.Some people also said that he killed people like hemp, so he used the word "corpse" as his name.

However, the flower corpse has recently contracted wind and cold, suffering from cold and fever, and is recuperating in the back village.

At the moment, Ma Xin, the deputy head of the gang, is in charge of the internal affairs of the gang. After receiving the invitation from Xu Zun and others, Ma Xin is also quite puzzled, wondering why the newly appointed Tang Zhou Ti Xing came to visit him.

He originally wanted to find a reason to shirk, but then he thought about it, Yonghui has had frequent accidents recently, and I don't know if there is something important.

In desperation, he had no choice but to let Xu Zun and others come in and meet in the reception hall.

This Ma Xin is a cautious person, after Xu Zun came in, he was lucky enough to let Xu Zun take the seat.

Logically speaking, as a state official, Xu Zun came to such a Jianghu gang, so he was naturally a guest of honor.

But the strong dragon does not overwhelm the top snake, according to the rules of the world, it is best not to sit in the front seat.

However, Xu Zun didn't care about 21, and immediately sat down on the front seat, and then introduced to Ma Xin and others:
"These are the commanders of the guards sent by the Neiwei Mansion. They came to Yonghui to investigate the case with Xu, and their people are collecting evidence everywhere in Yonghui."

"Ah?" Ma Xin was taken aback, never expecting that the inner guard would appear in front of his eyes, and he didn't know what Xu Zun meant by saying that, he was a little confused.

"There's another one," Xu Zun pointed at Zhao Yu and introduced, "This is the son of Zhao Shengong, nicknamed Zhao Yu, the Arm Severing Devil!"

"what!?"

Ma Xin was shocked again, although he had never heard of the Arm Severing Devil, but the name of Zhao Shengong was like a thunderbolt.

Zhao Yu also didn't have any mental preparations. He immediately opened his mouth and said in his heart, Mr. Xu, how can you call yourself a nickname?

"Master Xu," Ma Confidence suddenly lost his mind, and hurriedly asked, "I don't know if Master Xu is here, what instructions do you have?"

As soon as Ma Xin finished asking, a disciple of the Tan Gang came to report. The visitor whispered a few words in Ma Xin's ear, and Ma Xin was stunned, his face turned pale.

Obviously, he already knew about Xu Zun's beheading of Zishan faction disciples.

Too fierce!
Ma Xin became more and more uncertain, looking at Xu Zun with fear in his eyes, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

"Master Ma," Xu Zun waved his hand at Ma Xin, gesturing for him to come forward to speak, and after Ma Xin came to him, he whispered, "Find a clean place, and tell you something important about life and death!"

"Ah? This..." Ma Xin trembled again, and hurriedly pointed to the back of the living room to signal, "My lord, please follow me!"

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly led Xu Zun to the back, Zhao Yu and others wanted to follow, but Xu Zun waved to stop him.

Next, under the leadership of Ma Xin, Xu Zun and him entered a secret room.

Ma Xin quickly closed the door and asked, "Please tell me, my lord, what instructions do you have?"

Unexpectedly, after Xu Zun came in, he wandered around the secret room without saying a word.

"My lord," said Ma Xin, "don't worry, there are only you and me here, and there will be no eavesdropping!"

In the end, Xu Zun gestured for silence, but still didn't speak.

Ma Xin didn't know what to do, so he had to wait patiently.

After waiting for half a stick of incense, Xu Zun finally said: "Tell your gang masters to look for me in the yamen later!"

"What... what?" Ma Xin couldn't help himself because of this manipulation.

But Xu Zun opened the door, swaggered back the same way, and then left the Tan Gang with Zhao Yu and others without saying goodbye.

Ma Xin stood at the same place, whether to send it or not, it was very embarrassing.

However, Xu Zun did not stop, and immediately led everyone away from the Charcoal Gang and disappeared on the main road.

Seeing the direction in which Xu Zun and others disappeared, Ma Xin felt as if he had been sliced ​​mutton, and he was more and more confused.

"Horse Gang Leader, the big thing is bad, the big thing is not good..." Unexpectedly, at this moment, someone under him suddenly came to report, "Go and have a look! Houzhai... Houzhai is haunted..."
