I have an eternal eye
Chapter 34 Cui Laodao offers advice
Jiao Xiong, a bad handsome man in Jade City.
This position is a bit special. It is not an official or a rank, but it is not unusual to be able to command all the bad guys in the capital.
Jiao Xiong, who used to hang out in the rivers and lakes and green forests, had the gangster nickname of "Fire Fiend" because he was a performer in a juggling troupe since he was a child and was the best at playing with fire.
Later, seeing a bad opportunity, he joined the naval army and destroyed the chain water stronghold. He made a lot of achievements. He originally had a bright future, but unfortunately he offended someone and had no choice but to leave the army.
He was appreciated by the former Yin of Jingzhao Prefecture and led the bad people. He was a fox and a rat in the city in the middle of the capital. Seeing him was like seeing a ghost.
"Brother Jiao..."
Seeing Jiao Xiong's arrival, the third son of the Hu family shouted as if he had seen a savior.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, a bad guy swung an iron rod and hit him directly.
Snapped!
The third child of the Hu family suddenly had blood all over his mouth, his teeth fell out, and he was pinned to the ground.
Seeing this, Jiao Xiong sighed, cupped his hands towards Zhang Biao and said, "Captain Zhang, please leave this case to me, Jingzhao Mansion."
Zhang Biao smiled and his eyes turned gloomy, "Jiao Shuai, this is my six-door case. It's against the rules..."
"Brother Zhang, don't be upset."
Duan Fei hurriedly stepped forward and whispered: "There is another hidden story in this matter. I was originally responsible for taking this case, but I didn't expect that something went wrong."
As he said that, he took out a file from his arms and said, "This case has been closed. The credit goes to you. The rest will be left to Jingzhao Mansion."
Zhang Biao opened the file and saw the red seal on it, his face was gloomy but he said nothing.
When Jiao Xiong saw this, he waved his hand and said, "Take them all back to the Yamen. Make arrangements for the women and children. Don't let others harass you."
"Yes, Jiao Shuai!"
The bad guys and the Wu Hous immediately took action, and there was a sudden burst of crying and shouting in the yard, which seemed extremely miserable.
Jiao Xiong turned a blind eye, came to the mourning hall, respectfully offered the incense sticks, and then let out a long sigh.
After a while, the courtyard became quiet.
Jiao Xiong and Duan Fei didn't leave.
Zhang Biao didn't leave either.
There are still several Wuhou outside the door, peeking their heads and sneaking around.
When Jiao Xiong saw this, anger rose in his eyes.
"roll!"
The Wuhous were so frightened that they left quickly.
These Wu Hous had evil intentions. Seeing that the Hu family was in disaster, they wanted to take the opportunity to enter the house to search for some silver coins, or to steal some things and sell them for money.
Zhang Biao was too lazy to respond and stared coldly at Duan Fei and Jiao Xiong to see what explanation they had.
Duan Fei laughed, "Brother Zhang, it's a long story. It's almost noon. Brother, I'll be the host. Let's go have a drink!"
……………
Xingyefang, Baixiang Building.
"Speaking of which, the Hu family is also unlucky."
In the private room upstairs, Duan Fei took a sip of wine, shook his head and said, "I won't hide this from Brother Zhang. Do you know about 'Yali'?"
Zhang Biao nodded, "Of course I know."
The so-called "elegant ceremony" is actually a means of bribery, buying some antiques, calligraphy and paintings as gifts.
Officials in Beijing often receive a large number of antiques, calligraphy and paintings during festivals and birthdays, which can be exchanged for money when taken to a specific shop.
To be honest, it's not a clever method, but the emphasis is on "elegance". After all, they are all scholars, so they should be paid decently.
Duan Fei took a sip of wine and continued: "The Hu family is engaged in this business, so the bank can be opened in Xuanpingfang so that officials can access it at any time."
"Among them, the sons of Yi Chonghui and several high-ranking officials in the court were also involved."
"The person who paid the bribe first went to Yichonghui's shop in Jixianfang to buy it. The Hu family took the calligraphy and painting, paid the money first, and then went to Yichonghui to exchange it."
"Yi Chong will take a commission, and then use the money to lend money, and the Hu family will earn a transfer fee, the best of both worlds."
"A few days ago, the Hu family was targeted by a group of scammers from out of town. They used forged secret codes to steal a large amount of money and almost emptied their family fortune."
"It just so happened that the Yi Chonghui was in trouble these days, so the Hu family kept quiet and exchanged all the money back."
"The boss of the Hu family actually had tuberculosis, so he asked me to intercede with those young masters, first make up for their losses, and then pretend to be a knife bandit to commit the crime, kill the people from the Yi Chonghui who were planted in the shop, and then use his own death to divert attention... "
"I see…"
As soon as Zhang Biao heard this, he understood the cause and effect.
The Hu family was tricked, and then they wanted to take advantage of the situation and pass the losses to Yi Chonghui, but they knew they couldn't afford to offend them, so they acted like a robber.
Yi Chonghui has a lot of business and is in chaos. The boss of the Hu family, who is about to die soon, just used his own death to allow his family to leave Beijing safely.
At this time, Jiao Xiong said in a deep voice: "I owe the boss of the Hu family a favor. Brother Duan also said hello to those young masters. I am ready to turn a blind eye and let this matter go."
"Blame me…"
Duan Fei said awkwardly: "Originally, I was asked to take over this case, but Zhuge Shenping was suddenly recruited, and something went wrong. I didn't expect Brother Zhang to be so powerful."
Mom, they are not good people...
When Zhang Biao heard this, he lost interest and asked casually: "Why is this so serious? With the methods of Yichonghui and Jiao Shuai, couldn't they catch those liars?"
Jiao Xiong was silent for a moment, shook his head and said, "I found something. That group of people is not simple. They also have some grievances against the Hu family."
"The Hu family originally came from the Five Immortals Sect outside the Pass. They are a branch of our family. They came to the capital for some reason."
"That group of people is probably related to the Five Immortals Sect, and a few days ago, a mysterious person suddenly paid a large price and collected a lot of rare medicinal materials in Anrenfang, including a few taels of broken silver, which happened to have the mark of Taifeng Silver Village..."
"oh?"
Zhang Biao's heart moved and he became vigilant.
Rare medicinal materials were originally only used to treat diseases, and very few people could afford them.
But now that the spiritual energy has recovered, it can be used as a substitute for the qi-refining decoction before those rumored elixirs mature.
He had heard of the Five Immortals Sect outside the Pass. It was a kind of folk shaman who was good at using drugs to induce hallucinations and created gods and ghosts. It was quite influential outside the Pass.
Could it be that it is also an ancient inheritance...
Seeing him thinking, the bad handsome man Jiao Xiong shook his head and said: "It's a combination of circumstances and fate. It can only be said that the Hu family is destined for this disaster."
"Zhang Captou, this matter has nothing to do with you. Don't worry about it. I will find a way to leave some incense for the Hu family..."
…………
"It's your own fault!"
After leaving the door, Tie Shouming shook his head and said: "This is how grudges and grudges are in the world. People die for money and birds die for food. I have never seen anyone who is innocent."
Wang Xin smiled and said: "No matter what they do, the case will be solved quickly, and we can rest for a few more days."
"So be it."
Zhang Biao shook his head and said: "Go back to the Yamen first, and then you guys will go back to rest, so as not to lose energy during the night patrol for a few days. There has been some chaos in Beijing recently, so don't cause trouble."
"Yes, sir."
"Brother Biao, don't worry."
The three of them left Xingyefang and rushed back to Liumen.
It's just past noon now, and noon is approaching. It was a leisurely time on weekdays, but now there were many police officers rushing in and out.
Zhang Biao handed over the case and happened to meet Mr. Wang. He quickly grabbed hold of him and asked in a low voice: "Uncle Wang, what happened?"
Wang Captou had a gloomy look on his face, looked around, and said with a wry smile: "Zhuge Divine Captor has judged that there is a secret passage underground in Yujing City. There are many monks in the Lianhua Sect, and the daily food needs must be supplied by someone. He wants us to secretly investigate and check the secret passages in each place." People who buy large quantities of grain."
Zhang Biao was speechless, "This movement is too big."
"no way."
Wang Captou sighed, "There are no clues at the moment. The Autumn Zao Festival is approaching, and everything will be busy by then. With this distraction, Fang Shen Cap will not be able to avenge himself."
Zhang Biao nodded slightly, but he was even more certain in his heart that he could not hand over that map.
He has been to the underground secret passages of Yujing City, which are winding and winding, with many open spaces and many exits. Even if the army is sent in, they will not be able to fill them.
The Zhuge God Detective was eager to handle the case, and his behavior was very different from the past.
With the map, I might dare to invite a large number of people to enter. It is a matter of doubt whether I can defeat the Lianhua Sect. If I offend the Skeleton Camp, no one will survive!
After leaving the sixth door, Zhang Biao said goodbye to Tie Shouming and Wang Xin and hurried home.
He can now practice twice a day and refine two portions of Qi and Blood Decoction. If he practices the "Three Yang Sutra" after sunset, the effect will be somewhat poor.
When passing by Xuanyifang, he felt something in his heart and made a circle, heading towards Jing'anfang.
In the dark alley, the lotus picture appears again.
Zhang Biao was shocked.
Originally I just stopped by to take a look and didn't have much hope. I didn't expect Cui Laodao to actually get the medicinal materials!
It can't be a trap...
Zhang Biao pretended to walk by casually and came to a nearby dark alley. He immediately put on his ghost face. Then he came to a beggar, took out the ecstasy mirror, shook it, and whispered: "Help me do something..."
After a while, the beggar wandered into the dark alley with dull eyes, grabbed the dust on the ground, and added branches and leaves to the lotus picture.
Zhang Biao secretly observed the other side for a long time, and when no one came forward to ask questions, he left with confidence.
…………
It's night, the moon and stars are sparse.
In the dark alley, Cui Laodao was wandering around, his eyes full of anxiety.
Suddenly, there was a sound of wind on his clothes. He turned his head and saw a ghostly face under the moonlight.
"The Immortal Master is finally here!"
Cui Laodao was so happy that he knelt down and worshiped.
"Wait a minute."
Zhang Biao waved his hand and lowered his voice: "Did you get the medicinal materials?"
Cui Laodao chuckled, "No."
Zhang Biao was annoyed when he heard this, "Are you kidding me?"
"Master Immortal, don't be anxious."
Cui Laodao quickly handed over his hand, "Right now, there is a shortage of rare medicinal materials in Yujing City. Although Lao Dao cannot afford to buy them, he has a way. He just needs the immortal master to take action himself."
Zhang Biao frowned, "What do you mean?"
Cui Laodao carefully looked behind him and said flatteringly: "I think the immortal master has a way to control ghosts."
"Presumably... you can also catch ghosts, right?"
