Chapter 801 Jiang Youzhen, You Are No More Than Just This
"Chen Xiaotian, do you dare?" Qin Yandong immediately drew out his sword.
Soon they were surrounded by a huge group of people. One of them moved quickly, drew his sword and stabbed towards Jiang Youzhen.
Seeing that Jiang Youzhen had been caught by the ghost, Chen Xiaotian smiled triumphantly.
Jiang Youzhen moved quickly. When he drew out his sword to block, he only had time to see a flash of silver light from the opponent, and soon a sword was placed on his neck.
"So you knew I was Jiang Youzhen a long time ago?" Jiang Youzhen was very surprised.
"I heard that you are very good at martial arts and have profound internal strength, but your speed is definitely not as good as mine." A cold voice sounded behind Jiang Youzhen's head.
"In order to catch you, I mobilized the famous ghost in the Jianghu Gang, the number one killer on the Ghost Market list.
This man is like a ghost, moves like lightning, and has killed countless assassins in a flash. No matter how powerful your internal strength is, you cannot escape his grasp. "
Chen Xiaotian laughed loudly after he finished speaking. "Do you think that you are so skilled and brave that you can disguise yourself as a servant and catch the thief by surprise? You are too arrogant!"
"Humph! I'm not like those two idiots, Living King of Hell and Lady Hong. I followed you all the way but couldn't find a chance to attack you. You're clearly cowards who deserve fame for nothing."
The man's voice was as cold as a ghost, giving Jiang Youzhen goose bumps all over his body.
It turned out that the merchant who brought his daughter with him was really the killers Living Yanwang and Matchmaker. However, after seeing Jiang Youzhen's strength with their own eyes, the two of them really didn't dare to take action.
Qin Yandong was a little scared, because they were not strong enough at that time. These two were so skilled in martial arts, and Jiang Youzhen even used a big move, which consumed his internal energy very quickly. It was possible that it would be another bloody battle.
"After taking these fifty thousand taels, I can retire to the mountains and never have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of my life." Guimei was in a very happy mood. This mission was really smooth.
"Pride comes before a fall! Young man, you don't know how high the heaven is and how deep the earth is. You actually dare to bring such a small number of people up the mountain. Should I say you are stupid, or you think too highly of yourself?"
At this time, a man came out waving a fan, looking like an immortal.
Jiang Youzhen looked at him coldly. Was he imitating Zhuge Liang and claiming to be a military strategist?
"I guess you thought you had a plan that killed two birds with one stone, and you used the Yu family's trick against them. You came to our Salt Gang immediately after issuing the challenge, because you were afraid that the Salt Gang would get the news and not let the official ships in, which would make you lose your reason.
Even if we found out, you let so many people see you coming to the Salt Gang. If something happened to you, they would definitely suspect that it was the Salt Gang's fault."
The master smiled and shook his head, "You are just relying on the fact that the Salt Gang dare not do anything to you, and you are afraid that you can't stop the gossips, so you are fearless. Am I right, Master Jiang?"
The man was waving a fan, his eyes full of pride.
He circled around Jiang Youzhen and said, "You even pretended to be Qin Yandong's servant just to make us think that you were arrested by the Yu family, and Qin Yandong couldn't wait to ask us to release you.
But you don't know, the Salt Gang has been able to stand in Jiangnan for so many years, how could the gang leader and our brothers be reckless? We have spies in the city who have already told us the truth. "
Jiang Youzhen's expression changed, "Who are you?"
"This is Tong Hejun, the master lawyer of our Salt Gang." Others in the gang said proudly.
Tong Hejun? Jiang Youzhen seemed to have thought of something, and then suddenly realized, "Oh~"
"Are you Tong Hejun, the man from Tongzhou Prefecture who repeatedly failed the provincial examinations, claimed that the imperial examinations were all cheated, and protected his fellow officials, claiming that he was a man of talent but not recognized?"
Tong Hejun's face suddenly turned pale. "Did I say something wrong? You have only studied for a few years, but you have been able to pass all the tests and become the top scholar of the dynasty. Who knows if there is any trick in this?
I heard that you are on good terms with several princes, and you know how you got the title of No. 1 in the imperial examination."
Jiang Youzhen laughed, his eyes full of pity.
"The emperor hates cheating in the imperial examinations the most. If you are talented but not appreciated, others will feel sorry for you. But you say that other Jinshi candidates cheated in the imperial examinations. That is blaming others but never reflecting on yourself."
Tong Hejun's face twisted, and he suddenly felt that everyone in the gang looked at him with disdain and suspicion, and he hated Jiang Youzhen very much.
"Humph! So what if you are the top scholar? You still lost to me. Today, let me, your master, tell you what it means to be better than others."
"Hahaha! Jiang Youzhen, you didn't expect that we also have spies in the garrison, did you? You dare to bring such a small number of people up here, and pretend to negotiate with us, just to delay us for a few days and make us let our guard down because you are waiting for reinforcements.
It's a pity that your reinforcements can't come. They are now trapped in a valley. By the time they make a detour to Lin'an Prefecture, the situation here will have been settled long ago." Chen Xiaotian was in a good mood.
"Everyone knows you are a counselor, and today I will meet you."
"Jiang Youzhen, you are nothing more than that. Every step of your calculations is under our control. You are too arrogant."
Tong Hejun felt very comfortable at the moment. What if he was the top scholar? What if he was not appreciated for his talent? If the Salt Gang grew stronger and rose up in rebellion in the future, he would be a founding hero and would be made a marquis and prime minister in the future.
"What do you think? We are officials appointed by the imperial court. Do you really want to go to war with the court?" Qin Yandong said gritting his teeth.
"Why should we go to war with the imperial court? It was the Yu family who robbed the salt from the government, and it was also the Yu family who arrested you. The people all know about this, didn't you tell them?"
Tong Hejun was already very proud at this moment, he was in control of the overall situation.
“They wanted to kill the imperial envoy sent by the court to prevent the matter from being exposed, and they also wanted to put the blame on our Qingshan Gang.
In order to uphold justice and get rid of our own suspicion, our Qingshan Gang lent a hand to help the court capture the Yu family and take back the official salt, which we will present to you with both hands when the time comes."
When the gang members heard this, they were all in awe of Master Tong. He was so great! He was really great!
"Yes! Our Qingshan Gang is obviously a gang of righteous people, so how could we be enemies with the imperial court?" Gang leader Chen Xiaotian laughed again.
"You actually dare to attack us?" Qin Yandong couldn't believe it.
"The Yu family was so audacious that they killed the imperial envoy and Lord Qin. This is beyond the reach of justice. The Qingshan Gang tried to arrest the Yu family, but they resisted stubbornly. The two sides fought, and the Yu family died at the hands of the Qingshan Gang. Although it is a pity that the two lords died, it is of no use."
"You fierce bandits, how dare you?" Qin Yandong was furious.
"Then let's see if we dare." After Chen Xiaotian said this, he suddenly felt a chill between his brows, and then fell to the ground with a bang.
Everyone was stunned. What was going on?
"Boss, what's wrong with you?" Bao Guanshi went forward to check, and saw that Chen Xiaotian's eyes were wide open, with a bloodstain between his brows, and he died with his eyes open.
"Hasn't anyone told you that villains die because they talk too much?" Jiang Youzhen sneered.
