A Clash of Gods

When Qi Ning saw the murderer, it was already past noon.

The two murderers were all in their thirties and were of strong age. Their hands and feet were locked by iron chains. When they saw Duan Canghai standing next to Qi Ning, the two men appeared frightened. Color.

Qi Ning put down the teacup in his hand and glanced, said: "Deputy Duan commander of the two of you should know each other. This may be the first time you have seen this. Hou Qining is the leader of the black scale camp."

The bodies of the two murderers were shocked, and Duan Canghai's eyes were nailed to the two like a blade, and the two felt more frightened. Seeing Duan Canghai's posture, he seemed to have to rush up and strip himself.

"Although you have committed a murder, it is after all the Black Scale Camp." Qi Ning said: "Benhou is the leader of the Black Scale Camp. If you can protect you and keep the reputation of the Black Scale Camp, you will certainly do your best. Now Benhou only asks you a sentence, do you want to die, or do you want to live? "

The two murderers stared at each other and fell to the ground together, begging: "Hou Ye spares his life, Hou Ye spares his life, we ... We didn't kill, we were deceived ..."

"Deceived?" Qi Ning said lightly: "Do you want to be deceived by Tian Heng?"

"Hou Ye, we ... We were originally peddlers who were in the rivers and lakes. We were a little fisted. We came to the capital a year ago. I wanted to beg for food in the capital, but there are many seniors in the capital. We "I ca n’t get on the table, I ca n’t live at all." One murderer explained: "It was originally intended to leave the capital and try luck elsewhere, but it happened to be Tian Heng. He only said that he would eat mixed food in the capital. Patience, long time, always wait for the opportunity. "

Qi Ning and Duan Canghai glanced at each other and only listened to the murderer continued: "Tian Heng not only persuaded us to stay, but also invited us to dinner, and when we left, he also lost some silver coins to us, so that we don't have to show our heads, Said that one day, it will help our brothers get a good job. "

"What happened later?" Duan Canghai asked roughly.

The murderer's face was pale, and he said: "He was generous and saved our lives. He said that he could help us to make a messenger, which was naturally a very good thing, so we found a remote place in Beijing to stay." After a pause, cold sweat had burst out on his forehead: "Every time after that, he will suddenly appear, throwing us some silver to maintain our lives, only let us not move around."

What Qi Ning thought and asked: "You said that Tian Heng feeds you, besides you, can he still support others like this?"

The two murderers were stunned, and then shook their heads: "Hou Ye, we ... We don't know anything about Tian Heng. Once we asked him who he really was, his face was ugly. Tell us that you should n’t ask if you should n’t. We depend on him for support, and ... and he does n’t look like an ordinary person, so since then, we really dare not ask more. "

Duan Canghai asked in a low voice: "Hou Ye, do you suspect that there are others under Tian Heng's hand?"

"Tian Heng won't spend money to raise people for no reason." Qi Ning said with a sneer: "It's nothing more than seeing these two people have some effort, so as a gatekeeper to raise. He gave them money for flowers, but just to buy them two It ’s just life. "

Duan Canghai nodded, sorrowful under his heart, wondering who Tian Heng was, and even raising his disciples in private?

In ancient times, many officials and nobles had the hobby of keeping disciples. Some of them were wealthy and noble. In the heyday, there were also thousands of disciples under the gates. But when the great Chu became a state, these old habits had been greatly improved.

This is of course because the officials of the Chu Kingdom can no longer have huge financial resources to support such a large number of disciples. In addition, the court feared that if there were too many disciples, there would be future problems. The official position may be low, and there may be a stipulated **** establishment, but it is forbidden to keep the doormen.

But today the confession of the murderer shows in the capital that some people are secretly raising disciples.

Qi Ning knew that no matter whether Tian Heng's men were the only two people, but behind the scenes planning the whole incident was really fierce, there could never be only a few guests in this area.

"Then how did you run into Blackscale Camp?" Duan Canghai asked coldly.

The murderer immediately said: "Deputy Commander Duan, we had never thought of joining the army, but one day Tian Heng found us and told us that the Blackscale Battalion was recruiting soldiers, and he wanted us to join him to apply for him. We did not want to join the army, and refused. Tian Heng immediately turned his face and told us that there was a big man behind him, and the silver was given by the big man. We spent his silver and our lives belonged to them. If we were not obedient, we could not live in the capital for a day. "

Another murderer hurriedly said: "Yes .... this is the way, we are forced, if .... If we do n’t follow, we do n’t even have a life. We have no way to do it, so we joined him in the black. Scale Camp. "

"Being able to pass the strict selection of the Black Scale Camp and eventually enter the camp, the two of you seem to be somewhat tolerant." Qi Ning smiled faintly: "Except for the two of you, are there other people who joined the camp together?"

The two shook their heads at the same time: "Tian Heng only let us two have to apply for success, and if .... To if there are other people, we don't know."

"On the night of the incident, did you also follow Tian Heng's instructions to follow the military barracks?"

The murderer's face was pale, and he said: "We know the military regulations are strict, but we dare not listen to Tian Heng's words. At dinner that night, Tian Heng came to greet us and let us meet him after dark. After finding the location where the military camp was stolen, after dark, he took us away from the military camp. At that time, we did not know what he was going to do. After leaving the military camp, we only wandered around the military camp. Later ... "Dare not say anything.

Duan Canghai said sharply: "From the real recruiting, if there is any concealment, it will take your head now."

The murderer shivered and hurriedly said: "Later I met a few women in the grass, so Tian Heng ran forward.... Ran forward to tease ..., we ... . We had to keep up. "

"Mocking good women, of course you don't have to listen to greetings." Duan Canghai sneered.

The murderer lowered his head and said, "At that time, we were all dizzy. The women saw us and immediately yelled. We were a little scared. Then we saw several big men rushing over. We wanted Tian Heng to run quickly. , But I knew Tian Heng rushed forward to fight with those few people, we have no way, we can only step forward to help, but ... But then we knew that Tian Heng ’s martial arts were very good, and he shot hard Spicy, just for a moment, he ... he even killed three people, and the last big man saw the situation and wanted to escape, Tian Heng had to catch up, at this time ... A group of people rushed over, we looked at it, but it turned out to be ... it turned out to be the man of the government ...! "

Qi Ning touched his chin and said, "You mean, from start to finish, you are forced to do nothing. You neither know who Tian Heng is, nor why you stole the barracks that night, let alone Why do people who know Kyoto suddenly appear? "" Hou Ye, we dare not deceive you. If there is a lie, we are willing to be stern. "The two murderers immediately swore.

Qi Ning smiled and said: "You think you tell the truth, you don't have to be stern?"

The two murderers changed their colors, but Qi Ning has already said: "You have broken the reputation of the Black Scale Camp, and you can't easily escape the punishment in this way. To live, you have to exchange something useful, you don't know anything now. There is no use for Benhou, why should Benhou save your life? "

"Hou Ye spared his life, Hou Ye spared his life ...!" The two murderers knocked on their heads like garlic, but Qi Ning picked up the tea cup and was unmoved. One of the murderers suddenly thought of something, knelt on the ground and moved forward, said : "Hou Ye, Hou Ye, there is one thing ..... there is one thing I don't know if it works ..."

He was not close to Qi Ning, Duan Canghai had stepped forward, kicked him to the ground with a foot, and scolded: "One step closer, he cut you with a knife."

Qi Ning put down the teacup and asked, "What is it?"

The murderer hurriedly said: "Hou Ye, Tian Heng ... After Tian Heng entered the camp, he was rarely contacted by us, usually quiet, but ... but I saw him twice in the middle of the night Say something secretly to someone ...! "It seemed to be racking his brain to think back.

Qi Ning raised his eyebrows and leaned forward, asking: "Do you mean that he was in private contact with people in the barracks?"

"Exactly." The man said: "Our brother was forced into the barracks by him. He didn't know what medicine he sold in the gourd, so he paid great attention to him in the barracks."

"Who was he in contact with?" Duan Canghai asked in a deep voice.

The murderer thought for a while and said, "I remember that person, and later I saw the person and secretly inquired about it. Everyone called him Liu Beard, Da Ming ... Da Ming seemed to be called Liu Cheng!"

"Liu Cheng? Bearded?" Duan Canghai thought deeply and said quickly: "Yes, there is this man, that person is strong, Kong Wu is powerful, Hou Ye, this person remembers that before he joined the army, he used to I have been an Orion, good at bows and arrows, and archery is not bad. My subordinates still want to promote him up over time. "

Qi Ning stood up, walked to the murderer with his hands on his back, and said with a smile: "Yes, I still know some. How do you confess to Kyoto?"

"No......!"

"Why not confess?" Qi Ning asked.

The murderer said with a bitter face: "People in Kyoto Prefecture suddenly appeared that night. We knew that something was bad and we were too late to run. Before being caught, Tian Heng told our brother that he was in the court ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ we Even if you are caught, you can go out alive without any damage as long as you do n’t speak, and if you confess confessions, you wo n’t be able to save the king. ”

Qi Ning nodded slightly, squatted down and smiled, "You two are still honest. There is one last thing Ben Hou wants to ask you for help, I don't know if you want it or not?"

The two murderers looked at each other and saw that Qi Ningyu was gentle, and his heart was slightly relaxed, saying: "What did Hou Ye tell us, we are going up and down the mountain of fire."

"It's not that serious." Qi Ning smiled. "You don't need to go up to Daoshan Mountain or go down to the sea of ​​fire, just let you borrow something."

"Borrowing something?" The murderer wondered: "Hou Ye ... what does Hou Ye want to borrow?"

"The human head is at ease!" Qi Ning smiled: "I want to borrow two human heads for serious military discipline, and please don't be stingy!"
