"Yuan Shucai!" Li Xiusheng pulled the Taoist priest's braid fiercely and stared at him with murderous eyes. "You think you can become a deity just because you have a braid? You dare to … "
Slap!
Li Xiusheng gave him another slap, and the Taoist priest's face suddenly became red and swollen.
Looking at everything in front of him, Zhao Yu was shocked. He never thought that the Tomb Murder Case would be related to the female corpse in the ancient costume! And, it was really done by the same person. Dong Peizhuo and Gege were both killed by the Taoist priest!
Moreover, besides the two of them, there was also the cultural relic dealer Huang Jing, as well as Fu Jianxing and the others. They all died in the hands of the Taoist priest. The Taoist priest's hands were stained with blood, and he had committed many crimes!
At the same time, Zhao Yu regretted it. He never thought that Li Xiusheng was such a powerful person!
Since he was Huang Jing's disciple, it meant that after Huang Jing's death, he most likely inherited Huang Jing's position and became the number one cultural relic dealer in Qinshan!
I really … underestimated this guy!
Although Zhao Yu had never thought of him as a good person, and even had his guard up against him, he still thought too simply of him!
What made Zhao Yu even more terrified was that when he showed Gege's photo to Li Xiusheng, he didn't panic at all. He behaved so normally and perfectly, and didn't reveal any flaws. He even managed to fool Zhao Yu!
Now that he thought about it, Li Xiusheng might have known that the Tomb Murder Case was related to the Taoist priest! He hid behind the scenes and waited for the police to fight with the Taoist priest. Only then did he show himself. What a cunning fellow!
But …
Although he understood the cause and effect, Zhao Yu still couldn't understand Li Xiusheng's behavior. Because, if he only wanted to take revenge for Huang Jing and Gege, he wouldn't have taken such a big risk. As long as he exposed the Taoist priest's whereabouts to the police, the police would naturally go and catch him.
But, why did he do that? Even risking the huge crime of murdering the police, he wanted to catch the Taoist priest alive. Could it be … that there were other reasons?
"Ahem … You're really doing well, Daoist priest?" Li Xiusheng said to the Taoist priest, "I once searched half of China, but couldn't find any trace of you! It was like … I was looking for a shadow!
"I had already given up! But never in my wildest dreams would I have thought that you would come back by yourself!
"How is it? It's been 18 years since you've returned to Qinshan. Do you have anything to say?" Li Xiusheng shook his head and sighed. "I don't understand. You have already achieved success. Why are you still not satisfied? Why … was the charm of the Golden Buddha so great? How did that Dong Peizhuo get you to come here? How could you agree? Is his brain … is his brain flooded with water? "
Hearing this, Li Xiusheng's underlings laughed again.
The Taoist priest stared at Li Xiusheng coldly, his right hand slowly reaching into a waist bag on his waist.
"Hey! Don't move. What do you want? " Li Xiusheng had already noticed the Taoist priest's action. He quickly let go of his braid and took a step back.
At the same time, someone had already aimed a crossbow at the Taoist priest.
However, the Taoist priest did not stop his actions. In the end, he took out two items from his waist bag. One was a very old yellow cowhide, and the other was a square piece of ancient jade!
After taking out the two items, the Taoist priest threw them in front of Li Xiusheng. Li Xiusheng saw that there was no danger, so he bent down and picked up the two items.
Before this, Li Xiusheng should have already found out everything about the Golden Buddha through the interrogation of the Taoist priest's underlings. When he picked up the two items, he already knew what they were.
Although he was prepared, when Li Xiusheng took a few glances, his eyes lit up, and his body trembled uncontrollably.
Zhao Yu knew that the cowhide must have been the thing that the old experts had found from the ancient remains. It must have been the will that Qiu Cheng had left behind. As for the ancient jade, it must have been the treasure map that was buried together with Qiu Cheng. There were clues about the Golden Buddha treasure carved on it!
"Hehe … Hehe … Hehehe …" Li Xiusheng looked at it for a while, then laughed maniacally. After laughing for a few seconds, he said to the Taoist priest, "Taoist priest, now I understand your feelings a little! In this lifetime, no matter how much money one earns, there will always be some dreams in one's heart that you want to achieve!
"But, now that I have learned from your mistakes, I think I should pursue something more realistic! Cough cough … "Li Xiusheng coughed and said," Taoist priest, humans die in pursuit of wealth, just as birds die in pursuit of food. Now that you have fallen into my hands, you should know what I want, right?
"First, tell me the location where I buried Huang Jing! After all, I was his disciple. Without him, I wouldn't be who I am today! "
"Second, tell me the location of all your vaults! Eighteen years ago, you took away all of my master's belongings. Today, you should return them! Don't you feel that there is a lot more? The extra … Just treat it as interest. After all, without my master's belongings, you wouldn't be rich! Am I right? "
Oh …
Hearing this, Zhao Yu finally understood everything. After all, Li Xiusheng had put in so much effort and taken such a huge risk, all for the sake of getting rich!
A man who is never content is like a snake trying to swallow an elephant. To think that Li Xiusheng was already one of the richest people in Qinshan, but he was still not satisfied! He actually wanted to swallow all of the Taoist priest's belongings!
This guy … He is really ruthless!
"Humph!" The Taoist priest might have recovered a little, as he spoke more fluently than before. He spat out a mouthful of blood and said to Li Xiusheng, "Since you know my background, do you think that you can swallow my belongings?!"
"Whether I can swallow them or not, that's my business! Don't worry about it! "Then, Li Xiusheng looked around coldly, with murderous intent in his eyes!
Not good!
Zhao Yu's heart skipped a beat. It seemed that Li Xiusheng was really going to do something big, to kill so many people!
Previously, he and Miao Ying had been thinking of countermeasures. But facing so many enemies with deadly weapons, if they were to forcefully resist, there was no chance of survival!
What to do?
Zhao Yu knew clearly that once Li Xiusheng said the word "kill," it would be too late, no matter what they said or did!
Then, Li Xiusheng's intention was obvious. He only needed to keep the Taoist priest alive, and the rest could only be cannon fodder!
No way!
Zhao Yu was extremely anxious. He scanned through the entire device bar in his head, but there was no device that could help him get out of danger.
At such a time, he could only rely on his own power to save himself …
At that very moment, Miao Ying also felt the threat of death. Although she was prepared to put up a last struggle, she also knew that such a struggle would only lead to her death!
Miao Ying quickly approached Zhao Yu, and subconsciously held onto Zhao Yu's hand.
Although the two of them did not speak, Zhao Yu could feel that Miao Ying seemed to want to protect Zhao Yu. She wanted to protect Zhao Yu when the enemy attacked!
How could that work?
There were so many weapons aimed at them, and no one could protect the other!
At such a crucial moment, Zhao Yu's mind turned quickly. He even thought of dashing over and capturing the Taoist priest, then using the Taoist priest as a hostage!
Li Xiusheng wanted the Taoist priest's relics and treasures, so naturally, he would not let him die.
But … the distance between him and the Taoist priest was too far. If he dashed over directly, the enemy would have already opened fire!
What should I do?
Then, Li Xiusheng lowered his head and said a few words to the Taoist priest. Looking at his chest heaving up and down, he should have been prepared to kill them!
But, just as Li Xiusheng was about to speak, Zhao Yu shouted first.
"Wait! Wait! "
Suddenly, Zhao Yu thought of a very immature idea, but in such a critical situation, he had no choice but to use it.
"Wait, wait …" Zhao Yu raised his arm and shouted at Li Xiusheng with a smile, "Li, listen to me. I seem to have thought of something important!?"
Zhao Yu's words suddenly attracted the attention of Li Xiusheng's people, and they all aimed their guns at him.
