Chapter 27 Persuading Demons

(Please collect and recommend)

Wang Zhi was riding a horse and stopped at the gate of Zhao's house, facing the sunset. More than a dozen horse-riding entourages stopped outside Hu Gui's house dozens of steps away, attracting many people to watch. Soon, the waiter quietly retreated back to his home.

Hu Guiyang was called out by his elder brother, and stood at the gate and looked at Wang Zhi. He was facing the sunlight that was coming from the slanted, so he had to raise his hand to cover his eyes.

Hu Guishen said nothing and immediately retreated to his doorstep and stood with the factory servant. Without horses, he couldn't help but get shorter.

"You want to see me, I'm here." Wang Zhi sat on the horse, holding the reins with both hands, tilted his head to look at Hu Guiyang, as if this was their first meeting, "And it's not to hide, so you'd better have something important to tell me."

After a few days of not seeing each other, Wang Zhi's easy-goingness disappeared without a trace.

"It's very important." Hu Guiyang walked down the steps. Although he looked short, he didn't have to look directly at the sunset, so he could see Wang Zhi more clearly. "Simply put, you all found the wrong person."

Wang Zhi laughed disdainfully, "Let me tell me first, who are you?"

"The just-established West Factory, the East Factory, which has always been in the East Factory, and the Jinyiwei who is in chaos."

"Do you know who we are looking for?" Wang Zhi leaned forward a little, his face as if he was waiting to listen to an expected joke.

"There is a person in the palace who is murdered. You think it was Li Zilong who instructed the demon fox to kill people. Li Zilong was captured and the demon fox disappeared naturally. But you were wrong. The demon fox has not disappeared and is still killing people. And the goal is very big, beyond your expectations."

Wang Zhi did not show any surprise, "Of course the demon fox is still killing people, the target is you people. In a few days, if you can't capture the demon fox and bring it to justice, the Western Factory will take over."

"I mean the real monster fox. The monster fox that you have been killing people since last year is not the monster fox you designed specifically to receive rewards. The factory thought it was too simple." Hu Guiyang did not call out Wang Zhi's name in person, "The person who was killed in the palace is not simple. The West Factory and the East Factory have ignored some important clues."

"You don't even know who the victim is, so you dare to say that we have ignored the clues?" Wang Zhi did not mention the authenticity of the demon fox.

Hu Guiyang smiled and said, "At least I am sure now that someone is killed in the palace."

Wang Zhi's face was slightly dark, "You are wasting my time, Hu Guiyang, you overestimate your cleverness. You once had the opportunity to surrender to me, but it was too late. Go to see Yuan Bin tomorrow, the old guy may be easier to cheat."

Wang Zhibo turned around and Hu Guiyang shouted: "When the factory is back, you might as well check that person again. He has a secret, and this secret is the real reason for his murder."

Wang Zhi left, and more than a dozen followers first gave to both sides, then followed closely, with the horse's hooves flying, and the momentum was as powerful as thousands of troops in the small alley.

Hu Guishen ran over, "I am so stupid, how could I pass the message on your behalf? Brother Sanliu, it doesn't matter if you offend the factory, even us..."

"Brother, you are not stupid at all. On the contrary, you are too smart."

Hu Guishen stared at his third and sixth brothers walking into Zhao's house, not knowing what to say.

The adopted sons in Zhao's house moved out to live, leaving only Hu Guiyang and a few servants. After dinner in the guest room, they sat on the kang in a daze.

The Wu Wu Hu Gui didn't knock on the door, but pushed the door in directly, turned around for a while, walked to the table, took out the ignition object, lit half a piece of candle, and turned around to look at Brother Sanliu.

Hu Guiyang sat still.

"How do you know someone in the palace was killed?"

Hu Guiyang and Wang Zhi were talking at the gate, but naturally they couldn't hide anything.

"Guess." Hu Guiyang didn't want to mention the Vulcan Sect now.

Hu Guimeng guessed more accurately, "It seems that the Vulcan Sect really treats you as a 'successor' and is willing to tell you everything, you won't take it seriously, right?" Hu Guimeng asked and answered himself, "No, if you don't believe in ghosts and gods, you are the most proud godson of the adoptive father. You just want to use the Vulcan Sect to get yourself out of trouble."

"The fifth brother is smarter than the eldest brother." Hu Guiyang leaned back slightly and sat sideways against the wall, "Do you think I can succeed?"

"Help me catch all the Vulcan Cult in one place, this is your best opportunity."

"When the adoptive father divided the work, the eldest brother was responsible for monitoring the temple and the monks, while the fifth brother was focusing on the palaces and Taoists. The Fire God Temple should be returned to the fifth brother. I guess the fifth brother has been investigating the Fire God Cult for a long time, right?"

"Three years."

"It's been long enough, but when the fifth brother caught people, he still seemed hasty. Why is that?"

"You want to know why?"

"think."

Hu Gui sat on the other end of the kang, as if he was about to tell a long story.

The story is indeed a bit long, but he said it very briefly, "The capital city hides dragons and tigers, and they also hide dirty and dirty things. There are many evil words that confuse the public, and there are even believers everywhere. There are several major cults, and the Vulcan Cult is just one of them. The adoptive father originally hoped to follow this line and capture all the sects in one place."

"In this way, three years will not be long." Hu Guiyang is a half-idle and knows little about the secrets of his adoptive father Zhao Ying.

"After the adoptive father passed away, the demon fox came out again, and the Vulcan Cult suddenly became active. I got the news that the little peony and the double-sword man were protected by the Vulcan Cult, so I had to do it, but unfortunately I only caught some minions."

"But the fifth brother aroused the indignation and panic of various sects with this, and perhaps he could catch a big fish."

"perhaps."

The two looked at each other for a while, and Hu Guiyang said, "Fifth brother has long been eyeing He Baiwan?"

"Well, I will continue to keep an eye on it."

"Do you know his true identity?"

"He Baiwan has used many names, one of which is Liang Tiegong. He adopted a son and a daughter in Guangxi, cheated everywhere, joined the Vulcan Cult in Nanjing, and his status gradually increased. He came to Beijing last year."

"But you didn't tell your adoptive father."

"No, the adoptive father has always been calm, and he has only been a little aggressive in pursuing Liang Tiegong. I don't want him to destroy the entire operation."

"Will you catch him in the future?"

"Yes, my foe is my enemy. The Vulcan Cult suffered a severe blow last night and is likely to convene various sects to discuss countermeasures. As long as I keep an eye on He Baiwan, I can follow the clues."

"He Baiwan is afraid he won't show up again."

"Then keep an eye on his daughter."

"He Baiwan doesn't even care about his adopted son, but he still cares about his adopted daughter?"

Hu Guimeng was silent for a while, "Don't worry, let's take a look."

Hu Guiyang also remained silent for a while, "Fifth brother told me so much truth, I must have made a decision."

"Um."

"I became the 'Successor of the Vulcan God' last night. Did I help you a big favor?"

Hu Guimeng was silent for a while, "You helped all of us."

Hu Guiyang smiled indifferently, "The fifth brother and the eldest brother have reconciled as before? Or is it that all the fights are pretending. The fifth brother appears to be dependent on the East Factory, and secretly surrenders to the West Factory Wang Zhi?"

"The battle is true." Hu Guimeng said calmly, acquiescing his third and sixth brother's statement, "The adoptive father is not here, and my elder brother and I will build a team each. Whoever does a good job will be favored by the factory. As for the East Factory, the news I got is that they dare not compete with the West Factory at all."

"Wang Zhi's art of controlling his subordinates is really different from his adoptive father."

Hu Guimeng frowned slightly, "Do you know that for many years, it has been the adoptive father's way to stop us from promotion? Otherwise, I would never be an ordinary Jinyiwei lieutenant, and you would not be just a civilian."

"I heard a little." Hu Guiyang just heard a similar statement from Yuan Bin yesterday.

"The adoptive father was too stubborn, so stubborn that he could sacrifice everyone's interests. The adoptive father had the protection of Lord Yuan, but Lord Yuan is now losing power. Who will protect our brothers? The Juezi Captain offended too many people after his adoptive father, and he must find a new backer immediately."

"So it's Wang Zhi."

"Although the factory man is young, he is trusted by His Majesty and has a bright future. He also comes from Duan Tengxia. He really cares about us."

The two fell silent again, and Hu Guiyang asked: "You and the fifth brother competed for favor in front of Wang Zhi. What was the fight for? Who caught the demon fox first, or who created a demon fox first?"

"These two things you said are actually the same thing."

"Fifth Brother, you've made me confused."

Hu Guimeng stood up, "You are the demon fox, or the demon fox is on you. Whoever I and my elder brother first will lead the demon fox out will be the first to achieve the merit."

Hu Guiyang laughed, "I have known Brother Wu for so long, this is the first time you have told a joke."

"This is not a joke." Hu Guimeng said coldly, "Originally, I agreed with my elder brother and hoped to slowly lure the demon fox out, but you did it more and more and bumped into the wall by yourself, so I decided to change the method and force the demon fox out."

Hu Guiyang still had a smile on his face. He had encountered many strange people and things these days, and what the current fifth brother and fifth brother said was the most unexpected.

"Don't Fifth Brother really believe that there are demon foxes in the world, right?"

"That doesn't matter. What matters is the interests of most brothers. Everyone has made great contributions to His Majesty and the court dozens of times, and deserves a generous reward."

Hu Guiyang suddenly realized, "So those brothers who have not made meritorious service or who have made too few contributions will be abandoned: First, the third brother, he can't even arrest people, then the sixth brother, he concentrates on business and has no intention of making contributions. Last night, he was the nineteenth brother, who is just like me, and he doesn't seek to be motivated. I can still remember a few brothers like this. They will probably be killed by the demon fox tonight, right? As for the sixteenth brother who met halfway through, he is just confusing the public. He is so good at martial arts and is good at investigating cases, so the fifth brother must stay by his side."

"You still don't understand. The third brother and the others are just bait. They are useless, so they are released, but you are the one who bites the bait, and you are the one who kills them. Tonight, you will kill more people and expose your nature."

"This is Brother Fifth's plan, which makes me dizzy and make me angry, so that I can turn into a demon?"

Hu Guimeng did not answer.

"Haha, I wish Brother Wu succeeded. I am indeed a little dizzy, but it's still far from getting angry."

"No hurry, you haven't gone to bed yet."

Hu Guiyang covered his mouth and yawned, "I'm really sleepy when Brother Wu said this."

"You go to bed. After I leave, the entire Zhao house will belong to you. The remaining two maids and seven brothers will belong to you. They are the last batch of live baits."

Hu Guiyang's smile remained unabated, and the anger in his heart had risen to the top of his head, "Why did Xiaorou offend you? Do you have to kill her?"

"You have to ask yourself, and you will be able to answer later."

Hu Guiyang couldn't help laughing.

Hu Guimeng didn't laugh, "Brother Sanliu, everything I do has nothing to do with personal grudges... Forget it, saying that these are useless, you will understand soon."

Hu Guimeng left without saying goodbye. Hu Guiyang sent him to the door and watched his fifth brother walk out of the yard. Before he could retreat to the room, a group of people came in from outside, mostly dressed in Taoist priests, with only one exception.

Hu Guiyang recognized that it was Yun Dan, the eunuch under Wang Zhi.

Yun Dan stood under the screen wall, directed the Taoist priests to arrange the equipment, waved to Hu Guiyang from afar, and shouted: "Thank you for your help, they are finally willing to let me try it."

Hu Guiyang did not ask who "they" were, nor what to try. He went back to the house and closed the door, but wanted to see how these Taoist priests made themselves become monsters. This was the result of his efforts to "promote" for several days.
