Uncle Detective Di Renjie, I build a crime-solving team

Chapter 568: Opportunities Still Remain at Crouching Tiger Village

"He's looking for your sister?"

"Don't you want his life anymore?"

The middle-aged man curled his lips.

Everyone in Wohu Manor knows that the eldest lady Ge Yayun is the most powerful one in Wohu Manor.

Deng Tong's martial arts skills were only considered good among the other manor owners, but in front of the eldest daughter Ge Yayun, they were nothing but a pile of shit.

If Ge Yayun wanted to kill Deng Tong, all he needed was one sword, and he didn't even need to use a second sword.

With such a terrifying gap in strength, it would be laughable if Deng Tong still thought he could control Ge Yayun.

"He is despicable and shameless, and he uses all kinds of despicable means. If he goes to my father and pesters him, he might even promise my sister to him, since he cares about his reputation."

Ge Yaqing shook his head and expressed his concerns.

As Ge Tianba's youngest daughter, she knew her arrogant and extremely stupid father too well.

She understood back then that her father was a face-loving person and could not stand others begging him repeatedly in a humble manner.

If Ge Tianba had not really resisted Deng Tong's pleading, she would not have been wandering around outside at the age of eighteen, and would not have lived a peaceful life.

"Humph, Deng Tong is a villain. He has no idea about etiquette or morality."

"In terms of status, the young lady is his niece; in terms of age, the young lady is a full eighteen years younger than him."

"In this case, Deng Tong had the nerve to ask the master to marry the young lady, and the master actually agreed. I really don't know what the master was thinking."

After the man finished speaking, he suddenly remembered that the reason why Deng Tong could run rampant in Wohu Village was naturally because of the other party's military strength.

You know, many years ago, Deng Tong had already made a name for himself as the "Ghost Knife King" in the Huaiyang area.

Even though their strength is not good, they are not comparable to the minions.

Apart from giving Deng Tong the position of the Sixth Manor Master, Ge Tianba seemed to have no other means to win over Deng Tong.

Therefore, the best option is to marry off the two girls and use one to tie up Deng Tong.

"What else can you think of? You're using me as a tool to tie up Deng Tong."

Ge Yaqing sneered and became more and more dissatisfied with his father.

Her father can't control his subordinates because he is incompetent. What does it have to do with a weak woman like her?

Must Ge Tianba force her to marry his uncle so that he can manage the entire Wohu Village as he wishes?

"Don't worry, young lady. If you don't want to marry Deng Tong, then you won't marry Deng Tong."

"I will protect you and float on this river. I won't go anywhere."

The middle-aged man pushed the bamboo pole and the boat continued to move forward, drifting among the green water.

……

The body was left in Yangzhou city for a whole day, but no one came forward to claim it.

Yuan Qi had achieved part of his goal and was very happy. He was just waiting to host a banquet for Li Cunxi tomorrow and then proceed to the next step.

Cui Liang and Wu Wendeng in the governor's mansion also breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to wait for a few days. As long as no one came forward to claim the body, they would bury it early.

Li Cunxi, who had anticipated this situation, was not in a hurry for the time being. Mo Ling and Yingzi had already taken their inner guards to search for Ge Yaqing along the river. It wouldn't be long before they would send back news.

And he himself was also waiting for a banquet tomorrow.

Late at night, Wu Yanhao returned from the governor's mansion and said to Li Cunxi:

“The news that no one claimed the body caused Cui Liang and Wu Wendeng to relax their vigilance.”

"From the information I received, although some of the people in Crouching Tiger Village died, the whereabouts of many more people are still unknown."

"That is to say, in addition to Ge Yaqing, who we are looking for, there are quite a few other people whose whereabouts are unknown. We can look for these people at the same time. As long as we find one of them, we can expose Crouching Tiger Manor."

Li Cunxi rubbed his hands and shook his head again and again.

"Difficult, difficult, difficult."

"The people in Crouching Tiger Manor are engaged in a business that can lead to death. They are not stupid enough to gamble their lives on the lives of Yuan Qi and others."

"I can guarantee that this group of people are definitely hiding in a dark corner, and we won't have the chance to find them."

Wohuzhuang was engaged in private salt trade, which was a heinous crime that the emperor could not tolerate. As long as Li Cunxi found these people, they would be beheaded.

Under the influence of this premise and outcome, these people would rather hide in the gutter for the rest of their lives than stand up and seek death.

Finding them is as difficult as climbing to the sky.

The only person who can be found now is Ge Yaqing. Use this girl as bait to lure Prince Yuan Qi into the trap.

"What if we can't even find Ge Yaqing?"

Wu Yanhao frowned and thought, could it be that he had to rely on Bao Chong's death to turn the situation around?

"If we can't find Ge Yaqing, then Bao Chong and his subordinates who were killed by Wu Lezhi will be our best chance to kill Yuan Qi."

Li Cunxi said this and handed the thing in his hand to Wu Yanhao.

"what is this?"

"It was sent back by Ulezhi."

"Hmm...he is planning to storm Crouching Tiger Village?"

"Yes, he knows that we have suffered setbacks here, and wants to try to forcefully attack Crouching Tiger Village to create some opportunities for us."

"Then what do you mean?"

"I'm so fucking awesome. I have so many experts at my disposal. Why should I be afraid of not having a chance? I've already sent a message to Wulezhi, asking him to keep his troops in place and keep a close eye on Bao Chong and his four halls."

Li Cunxi's expression suddenly turned cold.

"After the banquet tomorrow, we will hunt down the leaders of the Iron Hand Group one by one based on the intelligence sent by Long Feng."

Among the twenty-two hall masters of the small Iron Hand Group, except Long Feng and Chen Yiqu who are their own people, most of the others joined the Iron Hand Group because of benefits.

Now, the head of the 22nd Hall, Lin Yang, also known as Shanyang County Magistrate Lu Jiying, has fallen into the hands of Wulezhi.

Most of the remaining 19 hall masters are just ordinary people. If we go back and hunt them down one by one, no one will be spared.

The hall masters who are difficult to deal with are Hu Yun, Bao Chong and Yun Gu. Just let Li Yuanfang deal with Hu Yun, Wulezhi deal with Bao Chong, and then everyone will besiege Yuan Qi together.

As for Yun Gu Ge Yayun, as long as she finds Ge Yaqing, she will know what to do.

"When we go to the banquet tomorrow, maybe we can confront him head-on and put the blame on that idiot Yuan Lu."

Wu Yanhao had already sat down calmly and mentioned the banquet tomorrow.

The news that Yuan Lu was hacked to death as an undercover agent has already been reported back. All we need to do next is to use the dead Yuan Lu as an undercover agent, and then everything will be much easier.

"Okay, then you will follow my instructions tomorrow."

Li Cunxi lay down on his side again and yawned.

"Dayou, we are almost done. You have been eavesdropping for so long, aren't you tired? Why don't you put down the Analects and let's chat."

Lu Dayou blushed: "Who is eavesdropping? How can you slander someone out of thin air?"

Wu Yanhao: "You are holding the book upside down."
