"You deserve it!" Wang Dong's face darkened. "I handed two lively children over to you, and one of them died in just a few days... Damn it! How am I supposed to explain this to his parents?"
"I'm heartbroken over the child's death. Who could have imagined something like this would happen in the capital of the Song Dynasty?"
"First, you sent Wang Fu's son to prison, and then you interfered with Sun Sansi's affairs, ruining his good fortune. Why do you think he won't retaliate?"
"You think I'm responsible for the child's death?"
"At least you are indirectly responsible."
"Okay, I admit I'm responsible, but why didn't Bai Wuchang tell me beforehand when he secretly took the things? Wuyou Cave is dark, damp, and stinks to high heaven. How could it be easy for me to crawl around here?"
"I was originally planning to have Bai Wuchang go and protect you, but then I thought, since you, Zhang Daxian, are very powerful and have Hei Wuchang protecting you personally, it would be completely unnecessary to send Bai Wuchang over. So, I changed my mind and let him take the things directly."
Zhang Shixun didn't want to argue with him. It was not a wise thing to get angry with a lunatic.
"Wang Dong, since Bai Wuchang can dig a hole to get in, can Hei Wuchang do it?"
"They're the same model, of course they can. The intelligent system contains detailed instructions for Hei Wuchang. If you don't take a good look at it, who are you blaming?"
"Damn it!" Zhang Shixun cursed in his heart.
If I had known that Hei Wuchang had this ability, I wouldn’t have gone to so much trouble to get into this rat hole.
At this moment, Hei Wuchang interrupted, "Master, do you want me to blow open the gate and let you in?"
"Blow it up? You carry explosives with you?"
"Yes! I have six bombs on me, and only one is needed to blow the door open."
Zhang Shixun was shocked. He didn't expect that it had this thing on it.
However, the "treasure" has been taken away by Wang Dong, so there is no need to waste the bomb on it.
"No need. Just go through the hole and fill it up again after you get out."
"Okay, Master." Hei Wuchang didn't ask for the reason and said, "I'll leave now."
It made sense for Zhang Shixun to let it go.
Hei Wuchang is too powerful and has aroused Jiang Xuan's suspicion. He will definitely report it to his superiors after he gets out.
After Zhao Ji and the bigwigs in the court knew about this, they probably couldn't sleep well.
An uncontrolled terrifying force must be their nightmare.
Even if Zhang Shixun had a hundred mouths on his body, he would not be able to explain the various abnormal abilities of Hei Wuchang.
Therefore, the only option is to let Hei Wuchang "die".
It's easy to make it "die", just disappear from here.
Jiang Xuan pushed the gate, but it didn't budge. Looking back at Zhang Shixun, he saw him standing there in a daze. He said, "This door is too heavy. We can't open it by ourselves. We have to go back and get some help."
Zhang Shixun nodded and said, "I'll stay here, you go back and call for help."
Jiang Xuan said in embarrassment: "I... I can't remember the way I came here."
"Old Jiang, your memory is terrible. There weren't many forks on the way here, and you can't even remember this?"
"I really don't remember clearly. How about we go back together and call for help?"
It’s not that Jiang Xuan couldn’t remember the way, but he didn’t dare to go back alone.
There are many dangers in Wuyou Cave. Who knows what we will encounter on the way back?
If he ever encountered a powerful thief, like the one who assassinated him in Fanlou, he really would not be able to defeat him.
Zhang Shixun could see Jiang Xuan's fear, but he didn't expose it. "Since you can't remember the way, just stay here. I'll go back and call for help."
When Jiang Xuan heard this, he immediately panicked, "Let's go back together."
Zhang Shixun stared at him for a long time, which made Jiang Xuan feel flustered.
"Old Jiang, it's time to practice your courage."
"Yes! Master Zhang is right." Jiang Xuan wiped the sweat from his face.
At this moment, his face was covered with sweat.
Zhang Shixun stopped pushing him and waved his hand, saying, "Forget it, let's go back and get some help."
Jiang Xuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The two men returned along the same route and saw Li Kui on the way. He was lying on the wet ground, holding his feet and groaning.
Zhang Shixun stopped, looked down at him and asked, "Li Kui, can you walk by yourself?"
"I should be able to walk."
Zhang Shixun reached out and grabbed his collar, lifted him up and said, "Come with me."
At this moment, more than a dozen thieves from Wuyou Cave were kneeling on the open space in front of Guifan Tower. They were all tied up and a group of yamen runners and soldiers were guarding them with weapons.
In a corner of the open space, there were five or six women in colorful clothes squatting on the ground with their faces covered.
Zhang Shixun asked, "Old Chiang? What's going on with these women?"
Jiang Xuan said, "It's because of them that this place is called the Ghost Fan Tower. Some of these women are prostitutes who come here to engage in the flesh trade, while others are abducted decent women."
As the two were talking, Wang Meng walked out of Guifan Tower and whispered something with an officer.
"Old Wang, do you have a hammer?" Zhang Shixun asked loudly.
"Hammer?" Wang Meng was completely confused.
"Yeah, I need a big hammer."
"A big hammer? How big is it?"
"The bigger the better, preferably the kind used for ironwork."
"Master Zhang, are you kidding me?" Wang Meng laughed bitterly. "Don't you see where we are? Where can I find a big hammer for you?"
Zhang Shixun pulled him aside and whispered, "I found a thief's treasure cave, but it's blocked by a stone door."
Wang Meng suddenly became alert and said, "If you had told me earlier, I would have sent someone out to look for him."
Without wasting a moment, he immediately called a few of his men and ordered them to go out and find the hammer.
Zhang Shixun glanced at the tied-up thieves and asked Li Kui, "Look carefully to see if there is Huang San among them."
Li Kui shook his head: "No."
"Are there any of Huang San's men?"
Li Kui looked again and again, then pointed at a pockmarked man and said, "This man is called Yao Damazi, and he is Huang San's subordinate."
Zhang Shixun walked over and asked Yao Damazi with a gloomy face: "Where is Huang San?"
Yao Damazi raised his head, squinted at him and said, "Grandpa doesn't know."
"Haha!" Zhang Shixun suddenly swung a punch, hitting him hard in the face.
Yao Damazi's nose suddenly started bleeding.
"Where is Huang San?" Zhang Shixun asked again.
Yao Damazi screamed, "Grandpa just doesn't know!"
"Haha! You're quite tough." Zhang Shixun drew a dagger from his waist and said slowly, "From now on, if you say you don't know, I will stab you... Where is Huang San?"
“I don’t know…”
Before he could finish, Zhang Shixun stabbed him in the arm.
Yao Damazi was very courageous and didn't say a word.
Zhang Shixun was just trying to figure out how to get him to talk when Wang Meng came over and said with a smile, "Brother, you're not good at this. Let me do it."
