My Endless Life
Chapter 213 Speculations
The fact that the Feisha Gang was wiped out was a big event in the entire Linbian City.
Therefore, even after a few days, this matter was still being discussed in the city. Li Qiao did not need to deliberately investigate, and he could hear news related to the Feisha Gang by walking around in crowded places.
That's the case now.
As evening approached, people in the world were drinking and eating meat in the restaurant, and naturally they couldn't help but discuss the recent major events in the world.
The Feisha Gang incident was naturally within the scope of their discussion.
Li Qiao came to the restaurant with a bamboo hat and happened to overhear their discussion.
“The Feisha Gang was wiped out this time, and I think it’s their own fault.”
A local gang member shouted loudly while drinking with someone in the corner.
Although Linbian City is not a big city, since it is a city, the gangs within it cannot be dominated by the Feisha Gang alone.
The Feisha Gang is the strongest of all gangs, but that doesn't mean there are no other gangs.
It's just that the Feisha Gang is usually very powerful, and it is backed by the government and colludes with the local government, so other gangs dare not speak out.
But it's different now.
The Feisha Gang has been wiped out, and not even a leader has survived. Even if you speak ill of the Feisha Gang loudly in public, you don't have to worry about being troubled.
This was the case with the other gang members who were shouting loudly at this moment.
Maybe he drank a little too much, so he bravely shouted:
"I've seen it a long time ago. The Feisha Gang is getting more and more greedy, and something will happen sooner or later! What now? They've been wiped out!"
"Why didn't you say this before?"
Some people in the world laughed at him.
This person didn't say this when the Feisha Gang was still there, but now that the Feisha Gang is gone, he said "I knew it earlier".
If this is the case, then this Jianghu person can also say that he already knew that the Feisha Gang would be wiped out.
It's an afterthought, as if no one knows how to say it.
The sneers from the Jianghu people caused the gang member's face to turn red.
The gang member’s voice became a little louder:
"You...don't you think I'm talking nonsense! I am...I really know! Because I saw it that day! The second in command of the Feisha Gang...that...who is that..."
He thought for a while, but didn't remember it, so he skipped the topic and continued: "...Anyway, it was the second-in-command of the Feisha Gang... He had a quarrel with the county master! The quarrel was very fierce! They broke up with each other!"
He clapped his hands and continued: "It's not like you don't know the relationship between the Feisha Gang and the county government. They had such a fierce quarrel that day. There must be a problem with the distribution of interests!
"I guessed at that time that the government must be dissatisfied with the Feisha Gang's current practices and planned to unload the gang... well, kill the donkey! Look, my guess was indeed right!"
The man had a big tongue and talked big words.
Most of the people listening laughed it off and did not take his words seriously.
After all, they brag every day. Anyone who takes bragging seriously is called stupid.
What they didn't expect was that when they were about to make a haha and skip the topic.
A female knight wearing a hat came to the gang member.
She took out a silver coin from her pocket and said to the gang member:
"Tell me what you just said in detail. As long as you satisfy me, this ingot of silver will be yours."
The female knight spoke calmly.
There seemed to be an air of "trenchness" all over his body that was difficult to conceal.
…
Two days had passed since the incident at Butcher Feng's house. During these two days, Li Qi was observing the death row prisoner who had improved in strength after eating the golden elixir, while studying Butcher Feng who had turned into a wild boar demon.
There was nothing going on with the death row prisoners, but Li Qi did make some discoveries on Butcher Feng's side.
The main enhancements to the wild boar demon that Butcher Feng transformed into were the skin and limbs of the body. The position of the internal organs in the body is still the same as that of a human, except that it has become thicker and more energetic.
In other words, Butcher Feng is still a human being as a whole, and there is no such thing as having any monster blood in his body and then suddenly returning to his ancestors.
Li Qi can confirm this by analyzing the spell of analysis.
Butcher Feng's transformation into a monster was more like a foreign object that rapidly assimilated part of his body's tissues in a short period of time.
This causes confusion in the brain, causing one to lose consciousness and reason, and act entirely on body instinct.
So Butcher Feng instinctively ate the person closest to him because of hunger...
Li Qi reverse-engineered the things in Butcher Feng's body that shouldn't belong to him, trying to figure out the full picture of what turned Butcher Feng into what he was like.
But with little success.
The main reason is that analytical skills are also severely restricted in this world. It is difficult to get anything useful even if you barely use talismans.
Therefore, Li Qi's analysis is stuck here.
However, although there was little progress in the analysis, Li Qiao made new discoveries.
Through the special contact information between the two, the two made an appointment to meet at an inn in the city.
As soon as he met Li Qiao, Li Qi heard her say:
"I've been walking around the city in the past two days, and I heard that the Feisha Gang seems to be closely connected with the government."
"I know this."
"Don't worry, listen to me."
Li Qiao took a sip of tea and continued:
“Although the Feisha Gang and the government are closely related, in fact they are already at odds with each other.
"I heard that a few days before the Feisha Gang got into trouble, the second leader of the Feisha Gang had a quarrel with the government's legal advisor. In the end, the two of them parted unhappily, and then someone saw that Wang, the leader of the Feisha Gang, sneaked to the county magistrate's mansion."
"Wang? The leader who turned into a bat spirit?"
"It should be him."
Before the Feisha Gang was destroyed, did the leader who turned into a bat spirit go to the county magistrate's mansion?
Li Qi narrowed his eyes, as if he had realized something.
Li Qiao continued: "Then someone saw this Wang coming out of the county magistrate's mansion with a happy look on his face, sneaking around as if holding something.
"The witness didn't see what it was, but he guessed that it should be some rare treasure."
Li Qiao paused here to give Li Qi time to digest the news, and then continued:
"So I went to the door of the county magistrate's mansion again. Although I didn't go in and didn't find anything useful, there was one thing that made me very concerned. "
"What? "
"Have you ever been to the county magistrate's mansion? Do you think it's a little too... 'fragrant'?"
After hearing what Li Qiao said, Li Qi also recalled that when he went to the county magistrate's mansion for a banquet, he did smell a strong fragrance.
This fragrance is similar to a mixture of floral fragrance and incense, not so pungent, and the smell is pretty good.
But then a stronger fragrance came from He Ru, and the smell almost made Li Qi's nose fail, so Li Qi forgot about it and shifted his main attention to He Ru.
Now after Li Qiao reminded him, he remembered it again.
Seeing Li Qi thinking, Li Qiao said:
"A county magistrate's mansion, a grown man, why would he make his own government office so fragrant? Don't you think it's strange? ”
In the era when Li Qi lived, this country called Da Qi was quite masculine.
Most men actually don’t care too much about their image and smell. Only a few people, such as men from Xihua Palace, will carry sachets and sprinkle some perfume powder on themselves to make themselves more fragrant.
Or some young masters in the city, in order to attract girls, or to take care of their families, will take care of their image a little.
In addition, other men generally don’t pay too much attention to things like smell.
Including Li Qi, he didn’t carry any sachets.
It’s just that because no one stipulates that men must not make themselves fragrant, Li Qi didn’t think much about it.
Now after hearing what Li Qiao said, Li Qi felt that something was wrong.
Mr. Qian was born in a poor family and had no family support. At his age, he couldn't use these things to seduce a girl. And judging from the description of Mr. Qian's image that was circulated in the market, Mr. Qian, who had a round head and a big belly, would not be liked by anyone even if he smelled good.
Oh, except for He Ru, who looked a little abnormal.
"So, what you mean is..."
Li Qi had a guess in his mind, and Li Qiao directly said the guess:
"I guess he probably wanted to use the fragrance to cover up other smells... For example..."
"Pig stinks!"
Li Qi and Li Qiao said in unison.
When you figure out the fragrance problem, it's not difficult to come up with this answer.
After all, the only thing that can be covered by fragrance is stinky smell.
The more smelly you are, the more you want to make yourself smell good.
"Is the real pig demon hidden in the county magistrate's mansion?"
Li Qi thought of this answer, and then his pupils shrank, and he thought more deeply: "...The county magistrate... is the pig demon? "
If the county magistrate is a pig demon, then what is He Ru who accompanies the county magistrate?
Why didn't Li Qi notice that He Ru was wrong... No, Li Qi noticed it!
He Ru's body is cold and her blood flows very slowly. In addition to the explanation that she practiced special skills, there is another explanation.
That is, He Ru herself is a cold-blooded animal!
Is it a frog? A lizard? Or... a snake?
Li Qi guessed He Ru's identity.
After thinking for a while, Li Qi stood up and said to Li Qiao:
"Sister, I have a clue. I have to go back to the Six Gates first, and then... take people to see if our guess is correct."
"Do you want my help?"
Li Qiao asked hurriedly.
Li Qi shook his head: "Not for the time being, the people from the Six Gates are enough, you just wait for me here. "
Li Qiao's martial arts is of the seventh rank, and with the various hidden weapons given by Li Qi, he may be able to kill the sixth rank by surprise.
But that's all.
If the county magistrate is really a pig monster, then according to what He Ru said, he may be a congenital cultivation, then his strength must be far beyond everyone in Linbian City!
What's more, there is He Ru, whose background is unknown, by his side. If there is a conflict, Li Qiao's seventh rank cultivation may not be enough.
In addition, Li Qiao is very important to Li Qi, so unless there is an accident, Li Qi does not want Li Qiao to take risks.
Let Li Qi handle the matter of the pig monster.
Anyway, he has countless trump cards, and he is only in the congenital realm. If he can't beat him, he will definitely be able to escape.
