The basement was behind the stairs. There was a secret door. After passing through a corridor, there was another secret door. Qin Sheng did not know who built this villa. However, to be able to build a villa on the island of Qiandao Lake, he must be either rich or respectable. Thinking about it, how could he be an ordinary person who could oppose Jiang Xianbang?
Therefore, Zhao Quan, who had been waiting for Hong Xing to speak in the basement, could not hear the specific sounds outside. He could only hear some noises, but he did not take it seriously. After all, Ren Zhun and his gang were outside. He came out unguarded.
At this moment, the two parties met and the scene instantly became awkward. Zhao Quan stood at the door, his face clouded and his eyes flashed with uneasiness. He did not expect Qin Sheng and his gang to find this place. Now, the truth was out.
Qin Sheng squinted his eyes and his face was full of anger. If Bi Yong was the traitor, then Zhao Quan was the real boss behind the scenes. He should be the mastermind behind everything, including Hong Xing's disappearance, and what happened that night in Meijiawu when they just arrived in Hangzhou. However, he still could not understand it.
"Third Uncle, why are you here?" Zhao Song asked in surprise after coming back to his senses. He had not thought about the things behind the scenes.
Zhao Quan, who still did not care about his image and dressed like a refugee, did not say anything. What could he say at this moment? Everything had been in vain.
"Brother Zhao, I didn't expect this. I really didn't expect this." Qin Sheng sighed slightly. He had been guessing for the past two days, but it was just a guess. There were many illogical things in it. However, now, his guess had become the truth. Even if the logic was different, it could not change the truth.
Zhao Quan gave up and smiled bitterly. "Little Qin, there's nothing I can't figure out. I lost."
"F * ck you. You're the real traitor. F * ck you." Hong Tao had already understood. He scolded angrily. Without hesitation, he rushed over and kicked Zhao Quan's abdomen. Zhao Quan flew out directly and lay on the ground in a sorry state.
No matter how stupid Zhao Song was, he would still come to his senses. However, Hong Tao was his uncle after all. He wanted to stop Hong Tao, but was held back by Bi Yong. Bi Yong snorted, "Zhao Song, you'd better calm down and think about the consequences."
Zhao Song was in a dilemma. Under such circumstances, if he wanted to stand on Third Uncle's side, it would be no different from declaring war with Qin Sheng. It was impossible for him to rescue Third Uncle from so many people by himself. In the end, he could only sacrifice his own life. But after all, Third Uncle was his biological uncle. He could only beg for mercy. "Brother Qin, Third Uncle already has his own difficulties."
Qin Sheng waved his hand and stopped Zhao Song. He could understand Zhao Song's situation, but he had no time to think about these things. He said to Zhang Zibang, who was not far away, "You guys look after them, I'll go down and take a look."
"Go ahead, leave it to me," Zhang Zibang said softly. Of course, he knew Zhao Quan. When he saw Zhao Quan, he already knew what was going on. However, this was Qin Sheng's business and had nothing to do with him. Naturally, he would not intervene.
Zhao Song was left in the living room, while Qin Sheng brought Hong Tao and Bi Yong to the basement.
When they pushed open the basement door, there was a man guarding Hong Xing inside. At this moment, he was playing with his phone. Hearing the noise, he looked up. When he saw the strangers, he frowned and asked, "You are?"
Hong Tao walked over with a smile and said, "Boss asked us to come."
The man did not think much at all. He laughed and stood up to welcome them. "Oh, it turns out that you are one of us."
When he approached Hong Tao, Hong Tao suddenly grabbed his neck, raised his knee and slammed it four or five times. Before the man could come back to his senses, his face was already covered in blood and he fell to the ground.
At this moment, Qin Sheng and the others saw Hong Xing, who was tied to the pillar and was badly mutilated. Hong Tao and Bi Yong hurriedly ran over. With red eyes, they exclaimed, "Brother, brother, how are you?"
Qin Sheng could not bear to look at Hong Xing's miserable state. He did not expect that this group of people would torture Hong Xing like this. Obviously, Hong Xing did not betray Jiang Xianbang. Otherwise, he would not be treated like this.
Hong Xing, who was dispirited, vaguely heard someone calling him brother. He slowly opened his eyes, which were already blurred by blood. It took him a long time to see his family standing in front of him clearly. He instantly became emotional and said, "You, you are finally here. I knew, I knew that Mr. Jiang would not give up on me."
As he spoke, the old man in his tens of years started to cry. It could be seen how much he had suffered these days.
"It's okay, it's okay. Let's go home, go home." Hong Tao hurriedly untied Hong Xing.
At this moment, Qin Sheng walked over and said calmly, "Brother Hong, you have suffered."
"You …" Hong Xing did not know Qin Sheng and looked very confused.
Qin Sheng hurriedly explained, "Brother Hong, it was Mr. Jiang who asked me to save you."
Hong Xing wanted to say something, but Qin Sheng saw that he was really exhausted and could very likely die at any time. He quickly said, "Brother Hong, don't say anything. Let's talk after we get out of here."
After that, Qin Sheng told Bi Yong and Hong Tao, "You two take turns to carry Brother Hong out. Let's get on the boat first."
Without saying anything, the two immediately carried Hong Xing out.
When they reached the living room, Zhang Zibang saw Hong Xing being carried out and said in a low voice, "Found him?"
"Yes." Qin Sheng nodded silently and said, "We can leave now."
"What about them?" Zhang Zibang pointed at Zhao Song and Zhao Quan, the uncle and nephew.
Qin Sheng said thoughtfully, "Let's take them first and deal with them later. We can't deal with them now."
Zhang Zibang agreed with Qin Sheng's idea and asked his men to tie Zhao Quan up. They wanted to tie Zhao Song up but were stopped by Qin Sheng. After all, Zhao Song was not involved in this matter. Otherwise, they would not have come here. Qin Sheng still believed in Zhao Song. As for the others present, they could not be bothered. Their bosses could not contact them and would naturally send people over.
The group of people evacuated from the villa. Two boats were already waiting by the lake. Zhang Ziyu was also on it. They did not stop and left immediately. When they arrived at Chun 'an County, they did not hesitate and went straight to Hangzhou by car.
At this moment, there were only three people left in Qin Sheng's car. Zhao Quan and Zhao Song were detained in the two cars at the back. Bi Yong drove and Hong Tao took care of Hong Xing at the back. Qin Sheng sat in the passenger seat and quickly reported to Jiang Xianbang.
In the middle of the night, Jiang Xianbang was still awake. He was cleaning his bottles and cans in the collection room. During this time, Jiang Xianbang was thinking about donating all his collections to several major museums, including Shaanxi History Museum, Nanjing Museum, National Museum, and Palace Museum. Outsiders did not know how many things he had collected over the years, not including those he traded or gave away. Often, people suggested that he set up a private museum, just like that rich lady's Rosewood Museum or Ma Weidu's private museum. However, Jiang Xianbang did not take it seriously. This was because he knew that once these things were exhibited, it would cause a commotion. By that time, those busybodies would dig deeper into the clues behind them. He would die without a burial place, and it would also implicate too many people behind him.
For ordinary people, these things were valuable antiques and cultural relics. However, for Jiang Xianbang, these things represented his entire life, from the earliest to the latest. They could form a chronicle. However, Jiang Xianbang could not bear to let these things be sealed here. Especially after this incident, Jiang Xianbang realized that the direction of the situation was not right. Some people had started to trace his original sin, so he wanted to donate these things as soon as possible.
These days, Jiang Xianbang could not sleep well. He was constantly concerned about what was happening in Hangzhou. He did not know if Qin Sheng could handle it properly. If he could not, he would really have to go to Hangzhou. This would obviously expose him, and he would owe some favors or make some deals. However, there was no other way.
When the phone beside him started to vibrate, Jiang Xianbang was shocked. The piece of jade in his hand almost fell to the ground. He secretly scolded himself for not being calm enough recently. After calming down, he picked up the phone. However, he did not speak and only waited for Qin Sheng to speak.
"I found Brother Hong," Qin Sheng said in a deep voice.
After hearing this, Jiang Xianbang breathed a sigh of relief. He was finally relieved. Then he asked, "How is he?"
"He is still alive, but he was tortured beyond recognition. He needs a hospital. Should he stay in Hangzhou or go back to Shanghai directly?" Qin Sheng asked.
Jiang Xianbang thought for a moment and said, "Stay in Hangzhou. I will contact them now. Wait for my news."
"Okay, there is something else. I will report to you later," Qin Sheng said thoughtfully. He was not in a hurry to tell him about the twists and turns.
At one o 'clock in the morning, Qin Sheng and the others finally rushed back to Hangzhou. Jiang Xianbang had already contacted a private hospital. Hong Xing was directly sent there for treatment.
Zhao Quan and Zhao Song were taken away by Zhang Zibang. Qin Sheng could not take care of them now. He did not leave the hospital until Jiang Xianbang sent someone to take over.
After a night of torment, Qin Sheng and the others were a little tired. They booked a room in a hotel near the hospital and had a good sleep.
At this time, in Jiuxi Rose Garden, an old man over 60 years old was anxiously waiting for news. He had lost contact with Qiandao Lake, which made the old man very angry.
"Foster father, don't worry. I have already sent someone over," a man in a suit beside him said in a deep voice.
The old man was wearing a Tang suit and scolded, "What are you doing? You can't even handle such a small matter. What can you do?"
The man was scolded and did not dare to breathe. He was responsible for this matter. If something really happened, he would definitely not be able to escape the responsibility.
After a while, a subordinate came in from outside and whispered something in the man's ear. The man looked a little unnatural. After the subordinate left, the man gritted his teeth and said, "Foster father, there is news."
"How is it?" The old man hurriedly said. Hong Xing was related to him taking down Jiang Xianbang and the power behind Jiang Xianbang. Naturally, he could not take it lightly.
The man said helplessly, "Hong Xing was rescued."
After hearing the news, the old man directly smashed a pair of high-quality walnuts in his hands and said angrily, "Find out. I want to see who is so capable."
