Chapter 49: Multiple Reactions



The leader of the Tiger Gang is dead.

No one could have expected this.

As the leader of a gang, Wang Ba's strength is well known to all the major families and forces in Qingyang City.

No force is confident that their best master can sneak into the Tiger Gang and assassinate Wang Ba. After all, the strength of the perfect external forging is no joke.

But now, this kind of thing has actually happened, and it was naturally like a landslide, which caused a lot of discussion among many people in Qingyang City for a while.

The two most shocking ones were:

Jiaolong Gang headquarters.

Xiao Jiaolong sat on a chair with a thoughtful look on his face, playing with four iron balls fluently with his big hands. His palms were broad and thick, different from those of ordinary people, and covered with many calluses. It was obvious that he was a master of hand kung fu.

"Are you sure he was poisoned?"

The intelligence scout nodded repeatedly. "Well, according to my informant, the Tiger Gang members examined Wang Ba's body and found only some minor injuries on his waist. The main cause of death was the poison he took, Hedinghong."

"That bastard Wang Ba, he's already achieved perfection in external forging, yet he still allowed someone to force poison into his body. Anyone who can do something like this must be a master of internal strength or acupressure."

Xiao Jiaolong touched his chin and asked, "What about the shipment of darts that were placed with the Tiger Gang?"

“No more.”

"Oh..." Xiao Jiaolong said with a meaningful smile, "It seems that Wang Ba somehow leaked the news. This must be the work of the Qin family. I didn't expect the Zhenshan Escort Agency to be so reckless after losing the dart. They even dared to kill Wang Ba. Isn't this a slap in the face of the Gold and Silver Pavilion?"

"Boss, I don't think this matter is that simple." A fair-faced young man sitting next to Xiao Jiaolong suddenly said.

Xiao Jiaolong glanced sideways: "What do you mean?"

"I got the news that the head escort of the Zhenshan Escort Agency took a number of the agency's best escorts to Meteorite Mountain a few days ago, but one of them returned seriously injured and is still recovering from his injuries.

Presumably, he took people to Hulao Village to seize the darts that day, but he didn't expect that Xu San had invited the Four Wolves of Huang Feng. The Qin family did not gain any advantage, but instead lost a lot of manpower.

This morning, Qin Feng took the initiative to lead people to the homes of those employers to apologize. It is clear that the Tiger Gang incident has nothing to do with the Qin family.

Looking at this handsome young man talking calmly, if it weren't for the feather fan and the long scarf, he would really have the feeling of a famous scholar.

Xiao Jiaolong did not say anything. This person was a high-level person who was parachuted in from the Twelve Linked Docks. It was said that he was the illegitimate son of a certain dock owner and was sent to Qingyang City specifically to improve his reputation.

This person's strength is not that good, he has not even reached the first level of external forging, but he particularly likes to give advice to others, which is the so-called offering suggestions.

But sometimes Xiao Jiaolong felt that this person was more like a military strategist, and he didn't know whether what he said was reliable.

But the other party had a very strong background. Even Xiao Jiaolong, who came to help, could not refute him. In terms of status, he was even inferior to this guy.

"Mr. Shi, who do you think is responsible for this?" Xiao Jiaolong asked.

"It's not someone else, there must be a traitor in the Tiger Gang." Shi Tianyi smiled calmly, he looked really heroic and handsome.

Xiao Jiaolong: (?°?д°?)

"Why, why is there a traitor in the Tiger Gang?"

Shi Tianyi said: "Think about it carefully, since Wang Ba has already achieved perfection in external forging, unless a warrior at the internal strength realm takes action, who can kill Wang Ba without a hundred people?

The spy just said that Wang Ba died from taking the poison of Crane's Beak Red. Think about it carefully, if it was a master of internal strength who took action, would Wang Ba die in this way?

So this incident must have been caused by someone in the Tiger Gang who was already dissatisfied with Wang Ba, or who wanted to usurp the throne. This is why such a thing happened. I guess Wang Ba couldn't believe it before he died that someone would dare to poison him."

Shi Tianyi spoke very seriously and solemnly, and it seemed that he was not joking.

Xiao Jiaolong was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say. For some reason, what this brat said sounded quite reasonable, and he almost believed it.

"Mr. Shi, how do you explain the loss of the darts that were left with the Tiger Gang?"

"He must be someone plotting to usurp the throne. He believed that after Wang Ba's death, his primary mission would be to unify the Tiger Gang. He knew that those items, which represented evidence of his crimes, would not be safe within the gang, so he quietly moved or destroyed them. This way, the news wouldn't leak out and attract the Qin family to come and question him."

Xiao Jiaolong: ...

I don’t know why, I didn’t believe it just now and sneered at this person, but now, I feel that the inference this guy made is not unreasonable.

"Forget it, this matter can only end here." Xiao Jiaolong waved his hands depressedly.

Once Wang Ba died, the cooperation he had previously agreed upon with the other party was immediately invalidated.

Originally, they had planned to use the Qin family's Zhenshan Escort Agency as a breakthrough point, and slowly destroy the business of the three escort agencies in Qingyang City by secretly supporting the many bandits in Yunxing Mountain, so as to erode their reputation and make no one dare to ask these three escort agencies to transport their goods.

As time went on, the escort industry in Qingyang City, which was controlled by the three famous families, naturally loosened up, providing him with a breakthrough opportunity to intervene.

As long as he could open a large enough escort company in Qingyang City and place it in the Twelve Linked Docks, it would be a great achievement and he would be able to get a lot of rewards from the owner of the dock. It was for this reason that Xiao Jiaolong took the initiative to cooperate with Wang Ba.

Who would have thought that Wang Ba would be so unlucky and die suddenly? It's such a pity.
