If one were to talk about who was the most well-informed in a prefecture, it would definitely be the local tyrant in the prefecture.
Chu Xiu vaguely remembered that the Ji Province Prefecture's Purple Cloud Restaurant was the local tyrant, the Five Yuan Gang's business.
Hence, after arriving at the Ji Province Prefecture, Chu Xiu went straight to the Purple Cloud Restaurant.
At this time, in the Purple Cloud Restaurant, the Five Yuan Gang's hall master, 'Smiling Tiger' Han Kui, was playing with a nine dragon coin in boredom.
Some time ago, during the God Weapon Convention, the Purplecloud Restaurant's business was booming. Even though the fight between Chu Xiu and the disciples of Swordking City had destroyed a floor of the Purplecloud Restaurant, the Purplecloud Restaurant still made a lot of money. Now, it was much more deserted.
At this time, a few people stepped into the Purple Cloud Restaurant. When Han Kui saw the face of the person opposite him, he trembled violently. The nine dragon coin in his hand also fell to the ground.
Why did this killing god appear here?
Although Han Kui was shocked, he still put on a flattering smile on his face. He walked over and said, "Why did Official Chu come to my Purple Cloud Restaurant again?"
Chu Xiu said with a faint smile, "You don't welcome me?"
Han Kui hurriedly said, "Absolutely not! I'm more than happy that Official Chu can visit my small Purple Cloud Restaurant. Official Chu and the rest, please go upstairs. I'll go prepare a banquet for you. "
Chu Xiu waved his hand and said, "There's no hurry. I came today to ask you something."
Han Kui immediately said, "Official Chu, if there's something you want to ask, this lowly one will definitely tell you everything he knows."
"This isn't the place to talk. Let's talk somewhere else," Chu Xiu said.
After Han Kui found a quiet guest room, Chu Xiu asked, "Do you know the Pegasus Ranch's owner, Qiu Zhensheng?"
Han Kui's eyes revealed a hint of understanding. He said, "Of course I do. Official Chu, are you here for this case this time?"
Qiu Zhensheng was very famous in Eastern Qi. Now that he was killed, the Ji Province Prefecture was so close to the Pegasus Ranch, so of course they got the news immediately.
Thinking of Chu Xiu's identity in Guanzhong Torture Room, Han Kui easily guessed that he should have been invited by the Eastern Qi imperial court to investigate this case.
Chu Xiu said, "Qiu Zhensheng came to the Ji State Prefecture some time ago. I want to know what Qiu Zhensheng did there and who he met. The more detailed, the better."
Han Kui's mouth moved. Just as he was about to say something, Chu Xiu said coldly, "Don't refuse, and don't make excuses.
Han Qing was to to say something. "You to, I to," Han to say, "I, I," Chu, I be, I have to say, the Chu, Chu, you, I, has be, I. "Chu, Chu Chu, Xiu,
"Also, I won't treat you badly if you help me, Chu Xiu. Last time, I destroyed a floor of your Ziyun Restaurant, so I'll compensate you this time."
As he spoke, Chu Xiu took out a bottle of Sixth Revolution Pills. For a martial artist like Han Kui, this was something that could only be found by chance.
Hearing this, Han Kui's face revealed a helpless expression. He knew that he couldn't refuse this matter today.
Therefore, Han Kui took the bottle of pills on the table, called a member of the Five Yuan Gang, and whispered a few words in his ear before letting him leave.
In less than an hour, the member came back with the news and handed it to Han Kui.
Han Kui handed the news to Chu Xiu and said, "Official Chu, Qiu Zhensheng did come to Ji Province Prefecture a month ago, but he only went to the Dragon Gathering Pavilion for less than an hour and left. After that, he did not communicate with anyone.
"As for why Qiu Zhensheng went to the Dragon Gathering Pavilion and who he met, it's not something that I can know.
After all, the Dragon Gathering Pavilion is not an ordinary place. With the strength of the Five Yuan Gang, only the gang leader is qualified to enter it, and it's only the lower four floors. "
A strange look appeared in Chu Xiu's eyes. "Alright, I got it. You can leave first."
Han Kui immediately left with the pills as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders.
Chu Xiu said in a deep voice, "Everyone, do you see anything wrong?"
Cheng Zhouhai and the rest nodded. It was such an obvious clue, of course, they could see it.
Qiu Zhensheng was a simple person. Whether it was his habit in the past or he was putting on a show, he had persisted in this habit all his life.
In the end, he went to a luxurious place like the Dragon Gathering Pavilion for a meal. It did not seem right whether he invited others or others invited him.
"Let's go to the Dragon Gathering Pavilion and meet that Prince Anle."
At this time, Prince Anle, Jiang Wenyuan, was standing on the ninth floor of the Dragon Gathering Pavilion, looking down at the Ji State Prefecture below. Beside him stood an ordinary-looking middle-aged martial artist. It was Mr. Lu from the Phaseless Demon Sect.
"The Eastern Qi royal family has invited the people from the Guanzhong Torture Room. When you killed Qiu Zhensheng, did you leave any traces?" Jiang Wenyuan suddenly asked.
Mr. Lu grinned and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness. The Phaseless Demon Sect is professional when it comes to killing. I have never used my Bone Eroding Heart Pressing Palm in front of outsiders. Even the Guanzhong Torture Room will not be able to see it. "However, I still have some doubts. Why did you kill Qiu Zhensheng? Didn't you join forces with that person?"
Jiang Wenyuan sneered. "Join forces? What a joke! None of the people with the surname Lu are good. They were just using me. Do they really think I don't know? Since the water is already muddy, let's make it even muddier. If the Lu family doesn't fight amongst themselves, how can I have a chance? "
Mr. Lu, who was at the side, smiled and didn't say anything. He couldn't be bothered with the messy internal affairs of the Eastern Qi. After all, the Phaseless Demon Sect was only doing this for money.
However, recently, Jiang Wenyuan was getting more and more impatient. If this went on, the Phaseless Demon Sect would have to consider changing partners.
At this time, someone suddenly came to report that Chu Xiu had brought the people from the Guanzhong Torture Room to check the records of the Dragon Gathering Pavilion's guests. This stunned Jiang Wenyuan.
He suddenly turned his gaze to Mr. Lu and sneered. "Didn't you say that your side did a clean job? Why would the people from the Guanzhong Torture Room come to my Dragon Gathering Pavilion? "
Mister Lu froze for a moment, but then he smiled, "Your Highness, you're wrongly accusing me. If I'm exposed, the people from the punishment hall will only be able to find the Phaseless Demon Sect. They will definitely find me first, and then through me they can find you, Your Highness.
But now, they came directly to the Dragon Gathering Pavilion. It's obvious that you exposed yourself here. That's why they found out.
I told you that you attacked Qiu Zhensheng not long after he came to the Dragon Gathering Pavilion. Being so impatient, it's hard to guarantee that no one will find out. "
Jiang Wenyuan's face darkened. He sneered. "Find out? If they have the ability, then they can come and check my Dragon Gathering Pavilion!
Even if it's the people from the Eastern Qi royal family, they can't do as they please in my Dragon Gathering Pavilion, let alone the Guanzhong Torture Room.
I'd like to see who dares to come and check my Dragon Gathering Pavilion! "
At this time, on the first floor of the Dragon Gathering Pavilion, several warriors from the Dragon Gathering Pavilion were blocking the first floor, confronting Chu Xiu and the others. These people were all Jiang Wenyuan's followers. For example, 'Dominating Sword' Cha Kui, 'Blood Rain Cold Light Sword' Xiao Ting, and Uncle Qi, who had fought with Chu Xiu before. They were all people that Chu Xiu was familiar with.
There were countless warriors watching from the side. There had never been anyone who dared to cause trouble in the Dragon Gathering Pavilion in recent years.
Uncle Qi looked at Chu Xiu coldly and said, "Chu Xiu, don't think that just because you won some fame in the God Weapon Conference that you have the right to do as you please in my Dragon Gathering Pavilion! This is Eastern Qi, not your Guanzhong Torture Room! "
Chu Xiu said plainly, "Old man, don't be angry. Everything has to be reasonable. I don't want to make things difficult for you, but this time, I'm representing the Guanzhong Torture Room to investigate the case in Eastern Qi. Why, isn't your Dragon Gathering Pavilion people from Eastern Qi? "
Uncle Qi scoffed and said, "Qiu Zhensheng is dead. You can go to the Pegasus Farm to investigate the case, but why did you come to my Dragon Gathering Pavilion?"
"It's very simple! I suspect that Qiu Zhensheng's death has something to do with your Dragon Gathering Pavilion! "Chu Xiu's words were earth-shattering, and everyone present was stunned.
Because in their impression, the Dragon Gathering Pavilion had nothing to do with Qiu Zhensheng from the Pegasus Farm. Why would Jiang Wenyuan kill Qiu Zhensheng out of boredom? Even if he killed Qiu Zhensheng, he wouldn't get the Pegasus Farm.
Right at this moment, Jiang Wenyuan brought his men downstairs and said coldly, "Chu Xiu, if you dare to spout nonsense again, even if the Guanzhong Torture Room and Guan Siyu are behind you, they still can't protect you! I have no enmity with Qiu Zhensheng, so why would I kill him? "
Chu Xiu said plainly, "Your Highness, you're wrong. I never said that you killed Qiu Zhensheng. I only said that Qiu Zhensheng's death has something to do with the Dragon Gathering Pavilion. Instead, Your Highness, you keep saying that you killed Qiu Zhensheng. This is a little like confessing without being pressed."
Jiang Wenyuan scoffed and said, "Don't play word games with me! The Dragon Gathering Pavilion is my business. If you say that Qiu Zhensheng's death has something to do with the Dragon Gathering Pavilion, isn't that saying that I killed Qiu Zhensheng? "
Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "That's not what I meant. It's just that according to reliable information, Qiu Zhensheng came to your Dragon Gathering Pavilion a month ago, and in the end, he was killed a month later. This is exactly what I want to investigate."
Jiang Wenyuan flicked his sleeves and said with a cold smile, "What a joke! There are countless martial artists that come and go to my Dragon Gathering Pavilion on a daily basis. Who in the pugilistic world knows if they're dead or alive tomorrow? If they die, could it be that they're going to blame it on my Dragon Gathering Pavilion? "
Chu Xiu took a step forward and said in a low voice, "Everyone in the world knows that Qiu Zhensheng's character is simple. As a Heaven Man Unity Realm great expert, he himself only lives in a small manor. In the end, a month ago, Qiu Zhensheng suddenly came to your Dragon Gathering Pavilion, this place to squander money. Now, I'm very curious who Qiu Zhensheng came to your Dragon Gathering Pavilion to see. Now, I want to check the guest records of your Dragon Gathering Pavilion. This shouldn't be too much, right? "
