On the same day that Brother Sun invited Daxie to go fishing, Zu Tingfeng also started to take action.
On that day, the Zu Gang leader asked the Zhenyun Gang's younger brothers to send an invitation to all the more respectable Green Forest Road figures currently gathered in Guangzhou.
The content of the invitation is roughly as follows: My ancestor Tingfeng has found a way to find out the truth about Master Gong’s death, so I invite everyone to gather at Master Gong’s grave tomorrow to witness that I am How to solve this "leading case"?
As soon as this incident came out, the entire Green Forest Road, as well as people from the government such as Li Chongda and Bai Zhulong, were all shocked.
Everyone feels strange: It has been many days since your ancestor Tingfeng came to Guangzhou. Earlier, when Master Gong was not buried, you did not make any movement. Now you are "four or seven". Here you are, and you suddenly say you have a way to solve the case? Or decide the case at the grave? What kind of trick is this? Are you trying to trick us all into that wilderness in the middle of the night and catch them all?
But doubts are doubts and incomprehensions are incomprehensible. Can they not go?
That is obviously not possible...
According to normal thinking, no matter whether the ancestral gang leader can solve the case or not, it is always okay to go and have a look. At most, the trip will be in vain.
To take it to the extreme, if the Zhenyun Gang really has the strength to kill all the Green Forest Dao predators except themselves in a place that is not their own base overnight, then this leader It was appropriate to give the position to his ancestor Tingfeng.
…………
As the saying goes, if there are books, it will be long, but if there are no books, it will be short.
So when we turn to the next paragraph, it will be the next day.
It was night, and just after midnight (i.e. eleven o'clock in the evening), the place in front of Mr. Gong's grave was already bustling with activity.
Whether it was the big guys who had received the invitation, or those who had not received the invitation but had learned the news, they all came.
Zhenyun Gang, Cangdu Gang, Longmen Gang, Tingfeng Tower, Hunyuan Star Gate, Six Gates, etc. These prominent figures should stand closer to the front (closer to the tomb) ) a little further, and those green forest heroes and stragglers who are not classified into sects and gangs stand further back.
Anyway, the total number of people from all walks of life must be hundreds of people.
There is no doubt that everyone wants to see how Zu Tingfeng is going to solve this leading case.
The people of the Zhenyun Gang were also well prepared. During the day, they set up a large number of torches and lanterns nearby. At this moment, these light sources illuminated the cemetery brightly. I thought there was a night market here.
"Comrades, there are... a few adults." Zu Tingfeng was impatient. When he saw that the time had come, he stopped procrastinating, stood on a stool, clasped his fists and handed over his hands. He said loudly, "Zu is a rough man. I won't go into those vain polite words. Let's get straight to the point..." He paused for half a second and said, "Zu invites everyone to come today. For no other reason than to find out the truth about Mr. Gong’s death andMaking it public can be regarded as a contribution to Green Forest. "
Before he finished speaking, a voice answered in a sinister tone: "Huh... Find out the truth? I'm afraid it's not a thief shouting to catch a thief, right? ”
I have to say, this Gong Jingyi is really a good compliment. Although everyone knows that Zu Tingfeng and Gong Lianjun are at odds, only Gong Jingyi will point out this sentence in front of others. , Others really don’t dare to say nonsense.
“Oh? "When Zu Tingfeng heard this, he immediately turned his attention to Gong Jingyi, who was standing at the front of the crowd, "Young Master Gong, do you not trust Zu? "
"What kind of garlic are you pretending to be? Gong Jingyi was also rude to the leader of the Zu clan, "Who doesn't know that you are at odds with my father?" Maybe you were the one who killed the person... It's up to you to find out the real culprit. If it's not a thief, what's the point of catching a thief? ”
“Hey, this is not right. "The next second, before Zu Tingfeng could argue, Huang Donglai intervened first and said to Gong Jingyi, "Young Master Gong, you said it was 'maybe' yourself. Isn't that just relying on unfounded speculation? There are so many people who don’t get along with each other in this world. No matter in the world or in the green forest, as long as you hang out on the road, you will naturally have interests with others... If you have people you can talk to, there will be people you can’t talk to, but this doesn’t mean The day you die, it will be killed by someone with whom you have a bad relationship. "
What Brother Huang said does make sense.
Zu Tingfeng felt very comfortable listening to it, and secretly said in his heart: "Oh? Looking at it this way, Nephew Huang Xian is actually facing me. Then why did they avoid me when I went to pick them up a few days ago? "
He thought for a few seconds, and then suddenly realized: "Oh! I understand! ”
What did Gang Leader Zu understand at this time?
To put it simply: he concluded that Huang Donglai and the others deliberately avoided his reception and wooing in the past few days to avoid suspicion. ; Precisely because they were not picked up by him at the beginning and have never had any contact with the Zhenyun Gang since then, Huang Donglai now stands up to speak for him, which sounds like "fair words".
Thinking of this, Zu Tingfeng couldn't help but secretly sigh: "Nephew Huang Xian's hands are really good, his strategy is more than one level higher than mine, haha... good! Okay, okay, worthy of being the queen of Huangmen, I said that Mr. Huang has worked with me for many years, and his son will not deliberately go against me. It seems that I was shallow before. "
The leader of Zu Gang was thinking wildly, and on the other side, Gong Jingyi and Huang Donglai were arguing again: "Ha! Okay, even if he didn't kill the person, then let's take a step back... It's been almost a month since my father died. No one could find out where he was before. Now that the person has been buried for so long, his surname is Zu. Suddenly he said he could find out something? Don't you think this is ridiculous? ”
His point of view is also a point that most people present, including Shuangxie, have not thought about.
At present, what Sun and Huang can think of is more likely to be the same as A logical assumption is that Zu Tingfeng found a very powerful murderer and planned to "open the coffin and conduct an autopsy", so he called everyone to wait at Master Gong's grave.
Of course...
"Ha! Ridiculous?" Zu Tingfeng smiled boldly when he heard Gong Jingyi's words, and continued, "Well said, I thought this was ridiculous, but The facts are in front of you. It’s okay not to believe it.”
“Zu Gang Leader, what exactly are you going to do? Just tell everyone clearly.” Constructive questions.
"Easy to say." Zu Tingfeng said and raised his hand.
At the same second, the Zhenyun Gang behind him also cooperated to make way for a young man who appeared to everyone to be dressed very strangely.
"This... is the 'Onmyoji' invited from Japan by Zu's entrustment." Zu Tingfeng introduced to everyone, "Master Kamo Hayato."
As soon as he finished speaking, as expected, the crowd was in an uproar.
"Brother Huang, what kind of path is this? Real or fake?" As a time traveler, Sun Yixie is no stranger to the word "Onmyoji" and its meaning, so at this moment he whispered Ask Huang Donglai.
"How do I know what his method is? Today is the first time I know that there are onmyojis in this world." Huang Dong said back; he was telling the truth, because when he was practicing on the mountain, his master also I have never told him whether there are other people who know magic outside of the Central Plains.
"Ah? Isn't he your Japanese colleague? You should know." Sun Yixie started to talk nonsense.
"He is still your fellow Japanese, why don't you ask yourself?" Huang Donglai's retort came out of his mouth.
"Go away! You are fellow Japanese!" Sun Yixie said crookedly, "Besides, listen to this guy's name. What's wrong with it? It's called 'Hurt People'. Even if he How about a 'self-interest'?"
"Tsk..." Huang Donglai looked at Sun Yixie with disgust, "That's a falcon."
< p>"Yes, it's the damage of 'yin damage'." Sun Yixie said, "Do you think I can't read?""What the hell...hey, forget it." Huang Donglai He shook his head and gave up explaining.
While they were chatting these few words, the crowd around them slowly became quiet.
Immediately afterwards, a prominent person asked again: "I've never heard of Onmyoji and Bagua Master! Why are you looking for him? Are you going to dance with the Great God?" ”
This shout came from the middle of the crowd.
As soon as they shouted, everyone followed the sound. Soon, they saw him lying on a roofless sedan chair, his arms were fixed by wooden boards and bandages, and his head was wrapped with many Big bandages.
"Uh... Hall Master Lei..." When Zu Tingfeng answered, his tone was a little hesitant, because he was also startled by Da Da's appearance, "What are you..."
"What are you doing! I slipped by the river, can't you? Have you never fallen down before?" The big guy is like a firecracker now, exploding at a moment's notice, so angry.big.
"Xing Xing..." Zu Tingfeng could tell that the other party was afraid that he might have something to hide, so it was better not to ask any more questions, so he quickly brought the topic back to the right track and continued, "What Hall Master Lei said, It should also be of concern to everyone present, and I don’t want to waste any time trying to convince you. After all, no matter how much I say... it’s not as good as seeing is believing." He paused for two seconds and made an invitation gesture to Kamo. , "I will ask Master Kamo to do the 'channeling' method. Once Master Gong's soul arrives, the authenticity will be revealed."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone started making noises again.
Although the discussion was coming and going, no one was questioning or interrupting loudly anymore.
Master Kamo didn't waste any time. He knelt down on a prepared straw mat and began to "channel".
The process of his "psychic" practice was surprisingly simple. All he had to do was sit in front of the deceased's grave, close his eyes, mutter something, and then sway his upper body, and he was alive. Son.
To be honest... those fake psychics in modern Japanese variety shows look more real than him.
Because when those swindlers do this, they often use props to create a sense of ceremony; some who are good at deception will chat with their family members in advance and make insinuations. To get some information or something.
If they just sit there without using any props, without talking to any acquaintances of the deceased, wandering around when they close their eyes, and say that they have "invited the spirit" when they open their eyes, then most people will definitely You will think this person is unprofessional.
"What the hell is this? It's so unprofessional." That's how Sun Yixie felt now, "This guy with the surname Zu can't even find someone decent to dance with. It's such a disservice to others." No?"
"I understand..." Fortunately, Huang Donglai is knowledgeable. He looked at Hemao intently and knew that the other party was indeed capable, "This is the so-called 'Spirit Summoning Physique', right? ..."
"Huh? What do you mean? This guy is really psychic?" Sun Yixi said curiously, "No way...you can't do this, right?"
"This is called specialization in the arts... For example, there are some things that we Taoist priests can do easily, but monks can't do, and there are some things that monks can do easily, but we can't do... The same thing should be true for their Onmyoji masters ." Huang Donglai explained, "Take his 'Spirit Summoning Physique' as an example. As far as I know, people with this kind of physique can use 'spells' and You can also 'invite gods' and 'channel' easily. If your bloodline is pure enough, you will have yin and yang eyes as soon as you are born..."
"Oh, are you so awesome?" Sun Yi? Xie exclaimed.
"Awesomeness is awesome, but it comes with a price." Huang Dong said back and forth, "This kind of physique is the same as the so-called'innate spiritual bone'. The difference with spirit bones is that if a person with a spirit summoning physique is not protected and guided by someone knowledgeable, he may be taken over by ghosts or something else at a very young age or he may go crazy and die..."
When Sun Yixie heard this, he thought for a few seconds and then said: "Then that Hayato Kamo can live so long and become a professional, does it mean that he comes from a noble family?"
"Eighty percent, right?" Huang Donglai said, "Speaking of the legendary 'Onmyoji' we have heard of in the previous universe, it seems that most of them are from aristocratic families, right?"
What they thought was correct, but they didn't think deeply about it, and they didn't know anything... In this universe, the existing Onmyoji families have a huge obsession with the purity of the blood of their family heirs. In order to ensure In every generation, at least one person with extremely pure "spiritual summoning physique" becomes the head of the family, and they can do almost anything.
Preventing your descendants from free love and "promoting birth" is already a trivial matter. Since people with "spiritual summoning physiques" among the people are very rare, even if they exist, they may encounter mishaps before they are discovered. Therefore, it is normal for those onmyoji families to intermarry with each other. In some eras when the population is declining, it is common for families to exchange, or even compete for, the women of the other family.
Descendants like Kamo Hayato who are not direct descendants and whose bloodline is not so pure can actually live easier and freer.
"Uh"
Finally, with a groan with an "overlapping sound", Kamo's "channeling" was completed.
When he opened his eyes again, not only did his face become pale, but the expression and demeanor of his entire face seemed to be a different person.
"It's really hard to live in death..."
After Hemo opened his eyes, the scalps of those in the Longmen Gang went numb as soon as he said these first words.
Firstly, there were two voices coming out of Hemo's throat, one was his own and the other was Gong Lianjun's. The two voices overlapped together, which was very strange.
The second reason is because of the tone in which he said these words. Anyone who is familiar with Gong Lianjun will immediately understand that this is Mr. Gong himself.
"If you have anything to say, please tell me quickly. I won't be able to stay long." Hemo, or Gong Lianjun, after scanning the surroundings, did not show any surprise and just said calmly.
"Gang Leader! Is it really you? Gang Leader!" Ah Ba's reaction was so fast. While pretending to be excited, he walked out of the crowd without even taking two steps. He staggered to his knees, and when his knees hit the ground, his tears began to fall.
Although "Gang Leader" Da Da's reaction was half a beat slower than Ah's, his movements were more powerful. When he couldn't move his hands, he exerted force on his lower body and jumped from the sedan chair. He stood up, rushed to the front of the crowd, and knelt down.
"Dad!" Gong Jingyi saw that the two outsiders were more excited than his own son and couldn't fall behind. He quickly knelt down and climbed all the way to his "father" on his knees.
Look at Gong Lianjun again. As soon as he saw these three people surrounding him, he immediately stood up and kicked Ah Ba in the heart: "You smiling tiger!"Then he kicked him again in the same way, "You troublemaker!" After kicking him, he turned to Gong Jingyi, changed his feet to hands, cursed, "And you are a loser!", and slapped Gong Jingyi. A big mouth slapped Gong Jingyi twice in mid-air, flying one meter before landing.
If these three tricks continue, the effect will be significant.
Originally, Ah Fen, Da Die and Gong Jingyi were only 70% confident and 30% doubtful, but now they are sure that this is the real Mr. Gong in front of them.
Because beatings and scoldings like this will not be shown in front of any outsiders. Only the parties who have experienced it know... When they do something wrong, Mr. Gong will do it in private. That’s how you beat them and scold them.
"Put it out quickly! Don't pretend to mourn for me here! It's embarrassing!" The leader is the leader, and he is also the eldest brother of Green Forest Road after death. In terms of momentum alone, he is better than alive now. It was still awesome.
And when his strange "accent" resounded through the cemetery at night, others present felt that the scene was a bit permeating.
"Master Gong." At this time, Zu Tingfeng took courage, cupped his fists and cupped his hands, and said to Gong Lianjun in a neither humble nor arrogant manner, "I am disturbing your peace for no other reason than that I want to hear Tell yourself who took your life... so that everyone can get justice for you."
"Huh..." Gong Lianjun sneered after hearing this, "Justice...say. It sounds nice, don’t you just want to settle the matter as soon as possible, and then you can legitimately seize the leading position?”
His words are honest and explicit.
Zu Tingfeng dared to answer: "Yes, you can say that."
"Ha! Hahahaha..." Gong Lianjun laughed out loud after hearing this, "Okay! You are worthy of being the leader of Zu Gang! I, Gong Lianjun, admire you!”
“Everyone,” Zu Tingfeng said with emotion.
Although these two people have never had a friendly chat or a glass of wine, this does not affect their understanding and admiration for each other.
Many of these high-ranking people who have been in Tao'er for many years are like this. The ones they admire the most are often their old enemies, but the ones who are the most troublesome, despised, and disgusted... are themselves. Those "loved relatives and friends" around you.
"Everyone here today thinks that Zu Tingfeng will find someone to plot against me... They are all fucking idiots!" Gong Lianjun then scolded his son. .
Zu was overjoyed when he heard the news, and thought to himself that the person named Gong was fine. This means that even though a person is dead, his words are good, right?
Unexpectedly, Gong Lianjun's next sentence was: "But if you ask me, the most suitable person to take over the 'Dragon Head' class is brother Hao Jing Yu Hao. If you are named Zu, you are still far behind him." "
"I'm going to throw your ashes away when I turn around..." Zu Tingfeng felt like he was riding in an elevator, feeling happy and cursing at other times.
“NoBut in the end, it is up to you, the living people, to decide who to choose. It’s useless for me to be optimistic about who I am. If I had seen through it, I wouldn’t be dead. "Gong Lianjun's words can be said to have jumped over and over again. He said it but didn't say it. However, he finally said something useful, "Okay, you didn't come to listen to me talk about this. Don't you just want to know who harmed me? Kill me? That's easy..." At this point, he suddenly raised his hand and pointed at someone in the crowd, "That's him! "
Shuashuashua...
At this moment, everyone looked in the direction he pointed.
And the person he pointed out , also full of horror.
“That’s him! "Gong Lianjun immediately read out the other party's nickname, "Master Su! ”
