Chapter 17 Ten years ago
The cost is too high, not worth it, and success may not be possible.
This is the capital that allowed Hengxing Bandit to stay stable in Tiannan Dao for ten years. The other ten thieves changed over and over again within these ten years, and almost none of them ended up well. However, Hengxing Bandit relied on its favorable location and strong power to continue to survive.
As stable as Mount Tai.
However, Qin Yang is more concerned about the timing of the opponent's rise than the details of the thief.
Ten years ago, ten years ago again.
Too many things happened at that point in time.
Daxia, Daxuan, and Yunmeng are the three major countries in the world today. Because Yunmeng is located in the north, it is quite deficient in food production, so it has always had friction with Daxia, the richest country in the south.
Ten years ago, Daxia and the Yunmeng Empire in the north started a war. Daxuan watched the fire from across the bank, watching with eagerness.
In that battle, Daxia, the most powerful among the Three Kingdoms, suffered a disastrous defeat. Among the ten Daxia Dao, the Guannai Dao was forced to cede, and the Emperor of Daxia, who was leading the expedition himself, also suffered heavy losses.
Ten years ago, Qin Yang's family was on the mainland side of the Guan Nei Dao. Because the soldiers and horses of the Yunmeng Empire broke through the pass and wreaked havoc in the pass, Qin Yang's family, like other people, fled towards the mainland of Daxia.
However, at this time, the Quanshi Alliance, one of the three gangs in Daxia, saw that the country was unstable and rebelled brazenly. Within a month, they attacked three lands in a row and spread their troops to seven lands, making Daxia even worse.
With both internal and external chaos, the Great Xia Dynasty was in turmoil. Those who fled from the inner pass also encountered a situation where there were rebels in the front and foreign enemies in the back.
Qin Yang's parents, as well as many other refugees, were all unfortunate people who suffered a military disaster that year, and they all died on the way to escape.
If Master Lin Daoyou hadn't met Qin Yang by chance and taken him in, Qin Yang might have become one of these unfortunate victims.
Although the Great Xia later calmed down, and the imperial court and Jianghu worked together to quell the internal troubles, the aftermath of the chaos still lingered on this land. Rampant banditry was one of these aftermaths.
"I see. Is this the residual impact of the chaos ten years ago?" Qin Yang said in a deep voice, "It's no wonder that there are such killers under the command of the rampant thief."
He stepped on the back of "Ghost Hand" with his right foot and pressed down again, "A killer like this is not the only one. The power of thieves is really amazing."
At least for the remote Tiannan Road, the Hengxing Thief is already considered a very important figure. He is more dangerous and more vigilant than the Monk-killing and Life-killing Thieves who travel alone.
"It is said that Hengxing Bandit has a connection with Daxuan. In recent days, there have been a series of murder cases related to Daxuan in the east of Tiannan Road. At this time, Hengxing Bandit's 'Ghost Hand' appeared in Nanshan County. I am afraid that this will stop the Ge Ling incident.
There’s a lot of shady stuff.”
Ying Baifeng pointed at Qin Yang's feet and said: "Leave this 'ghost hand' to Ying. Jingwusi's methods will make him spit out everything he needs to say."
"Then I'll trouble you, senior."
Qin Yang smiled very warmly, and it didn't look like he had just used a dangerous trick at all.
He leaned over and picked up the "Ghost Hand" and handed it to Ying Baifeng. When Ying Baifeng saw the five ferocious blood holes on the shoulder of the "Ghost Hand", even though he was used to seeing wind and waves, he couldn't help but look at it more
He glanced at Qin Yang.
He also practices claw skills, so he naturally knows how powerful the claws of the person who used the claws must be to cause such a serious injury. Such skills are considered top-notch in the acquired realm.
‘No wonder Wu Tianzhi entrusted this boy with a heavy responsibility and directly asked him to take the lead in arresting people.’ Ying Baifeng muttered in his heart.
It is not easy for the Beggar Clan to open a new branch in Tiannan Road. The local gangsters in Tiannan Road and even the official Jingwu Division may not necessarily intend to let the Beggar Clan open a new branch.
The power of the Beggar Clan is so vast that it now covers two-thirds of the territory of Daxia. If the seventh branch is opened again, it will be a step further, and I am afraid that it will get involved in the remaining two branches.
It's too broad, too big. This force is already comparable to the Quanshi Alliance ten years ago. If it grows further, it will surpass the Quanshi Alliance back then.
With such a lesson learned from the Quanshi Alliance, how can the imperial court safely allow the Beggar Gang to continue to expand its sphere of influence? Even if Li Qingtian, the leader of the Quanshi Alliance ten years ago, was defeated by the Beggar Gang.
'I hope Lao Wu won't embarrass me.'
Ying Baifeng held the "Ghost Hand" over and opened the window, saying: "Liu Ting and the other one will be left to you."
After saying that, he jumped out of the window and disappeared into the distance.
Obviously, compared to the two little fishes Liu Ting and Jiang San, the killers related to the gangsters are more worthy of Ying Baifeng's attention.
‘Star-picking thieves, rampant thieves, and Daxuan…’
Qin Yang chewed these words in his heart, 'It seems that he is from Daxuan's side.'
At this time, Qin Yang finally confirmed that the enemy was Daxuan, which made him feel excited and quietly relieved.
Although the dispute between Daxuan and Daxia is not as great as that between Daxia and Yunmeng, the two countries are not friendly either. Daxia suffered a disastrous defeat in the war ten years ago, and Daxuan, who had been sitting on the mountain watching the fight between tigers, took the opportunity to take advantage.
If Daxia had not suppressed the domestic rebel forces in time and Chen Bing had blocked the enemy forces at the border, the Ten Dao of Daxia might have gained and lost another territory.
It is precisely for this reason that the news of the appearance of Daxuan people in Tiannan Road this time made Jingwu Si so vigilant.
With Jingwu Si in the way, no matter how powerful his enemy is, he can't crush Qin Yang with his absolute strength. In this way, he will have time to grow.
'Furthermore, I deliberately displayed fierce and fierce martial arts, which is completely different from the Mohist martial arts. Although the origin of Qin Yu's identity is unknown, no one will hide Qin Yu and Mohist disciple Qin Yang among the Beggar Clan.
Combined.'
Thinking like this, Qin Yang showed a smile, stepped forward to fumble for the things hidden on Liu Ting's body, and took out the Zhi Ge Ling.
The Zhi Ge Order that was originally dispersed by Qin Yang is now back in Qin Yang's hands. Only this time, Qin Yang is not a conspirator, but an investigator.
This change of identity is quite interesting sometimes when I think about it.
He stood up and said to Dayong, "Brother Yu, brothers, please bring Liu Ting and this one back. Later we will go to the dungeon of Jingwu Division to interrogate them."
"Brother Qin was joking. He said we came together to capture Liu Ting, but in the end it was Brother Qin who had to help. How dare we say it was a good job to move people."
Yu Dayong called behind him: "You two, go pick up Liu Ting and Jiang San and take them back to the government office."
As he spoke, he also explained to Qin Yang: "Brother Qin, the person with Liu Ting is his junior brother 'Smiling Tiger' Jiang San. This person is quite cunning, but in the end he fell into the trap of 'ghost hands'.
Brother Qin can take down the 'Ghost Hand', and his strength is top-notch in the Houtian realm."
As he spoke, he gave a thumbs up and looked at Qin Yang more eagerly.
Being able to be transferred by Wu Tianzhi to open up a new branch, Yu Dayong seemed rough and arrogant, but in fact he was rough and refined. He saw how powerful Qin Yang was, so he took the opportunity to get acquainted with Qin Yang, which further made Qin Yang feel close to Wu Tianzhi.
feel.
After all, there is not only one faction in the Beggar Clan. In addition to the Pure Clothes Sect, there is also the Dirty Clothes Sect, and the Pure Clothes Sect also has its own groups. Wu Tianzhi was able to come to open up a new branch because he had the upper hand, but this does not mean that
He could sit back and relax.
