"They secretly infiltrated Sanjiang County?"
Inside the Sihai Escort Agency, Lin Ce looked at Yu Jiu in front of him and frowned slightly.
To be honest, although he was worried that the people from Lianjiang Shuizhai would be relentless, he felt something was off since they actually did it.
Previously, on the Lanjiang River, they had forcefully demonstrated their strength.
Before they figured out a way to deal with him, how dare the people of Lianjiang Water Village come and provoke him?
Lin Ce didn't ask any further questions.
Now that the people from Lianjiang Water Village have gone ashore, continuing to secretly monitor them is beyond Yu Jiu's capabilities.
Even Li Qingshan, who was skilled in light-body techniques, couldn't do it.
While Zhong Shiqi, the "Lancang Scholar," might not be much in front of him as a Xiantian martial artist, his strength was still overwhelming for Li Qingshan and his group.
Unless I personally take action, it will be difficult to obtain any more useful information.
"Chief Escort!"
Just then, shouts came from outside the door.
The gatekeeper announced that guests had arrived, and coincidentally, it was none other than Zhong Shiqi and the others we had just discussed.
Lin Ce met with several people in the hall.
At first glance, he was quite surprised.
Unexpectedly, everyone present was a familiar face.
Zhong Shiqi and Li Hanzhou are both from Lianjiang Water Village, so there's no need to elaborate.
Then there were three other faces, which made him feel the strangeness of his encounter.
"Chief镖头 Lin, how have you been? It's good to see you again."
Lin Ce chuckled.
These three were actually the Three Heroes of Liyuan, who had crossed paths during the Tianwangzhai incident.
"What's going on? Why are you guys everywhere?"
Li Wenzheng, the leader of the Three Heroes of Liyuan, smiled at Lin Ce and said:
"Please excuse me, Chief Escort Lin. This gentleman is also my uncle."
Li Tianwang, the Iron Pagoda King of Tianwang Village, and Li Hanzhou, the fourth leader of Lianjiang Water Village.
Lin Ce nodded, understanding the connection.
However, while he understands, it doesn't mean he won't complain:
"What kind of garden is this Li Garden? Each one is more impressive than the last. How many uncles do you have?"
Li Wenzheng chuckled, pretending not to notice the sarcasm in the other person's words.
"Chief镖头 Lin, all of this is actually a misunderstanding. Fourth Uncle is different from Li Tianwang last time, and Lianjiang Water Village is also different from Tianwang Village. This time, he made such a big mistake because he listened to the slander of villains. I hope Chief镖头 Lin can give him a chance to make amends."
It turns out that the three righteous men of Liyuan came to act as middlemen.
However, it must be said that familiar faces do have some effect.
By having Li Yuan and the Three Righteous Men explain the matter, Lin Ce was clearly less resistant.
As for the villains mentioned in Li Yuan's words, they naturally refer to the few people who were ashen-faced and kneeling on the ground to the side.
These people had met Lin Ce once before, but it was a bad encounter.
I saw him before when I was accepting a delivery for Baicao Sect.
It seems that the head镖师 (chief镖师) of several镖局 (escort agencies) in Sanjiang County was going to give him a good talking-to because he had "overstepped his bounds" by accepting a镖 (escort) job.
Of course, in the end, they were taught a lesson by Li Qingshan and Yu Jiu, whom they had sent out.
It is clear that there is a grudge between the two sides.
Lin Ce wasn't a brainless person. Now it seemed that these were the people who had instigated the seventh leader of Lianjiang Water Village to deal with him.
Previously on the Lanjiang River, I asked the seventh leader of the water stronghold to confess, but the other party was very stubborn and refused to say anything.
Lin Ce cooperated perfectly, blasting his opponent to pieces with a single blow, thus fulfilling his wish.
Now, the people of Lianjiang Water Village are eagerly bringing these people over and delivering them to their doorstep.
In that case, wouldn't the death of the seventh leader of the Water Village be utterly ridiculous and meaningless?
"So, the attack on my Sihai Escort Agency's caravan was orchestrated by you all?"
In front of Lin Ce, the chief镖师 (bodyguards/escorts) of several镖局 (escort agencies) in Sanjiang County were all covered in sweat and looked terrified.
They were local strongmen in Sanjiang County, so they had naturally heard about Lin Ce's great achievements long ago.
The opponent is someone who can easily defeat a Xiantian martial artist. If we were all tied together, we probably wouldn't even be able to withstand a single slap from them.
How dare they agree?
"You won't talk, huh? You think I can't do anything about it?"
Lin Ce sneered, and it seemed as if he was about to raise his arm.
The people from Lianjiang Water Village felt a chill run down their spines.
They seemed to recall a scene from the Lanjiang River.
At that time, the seventh leader of the water stronghold also refused to reveal the information, but Lin Ce did not tolerate it at all and smashed it with his hand.
Is that scene about to repeat itself again?
"Lin Ce, you dare? What makes you think we did it? Do you have any proof?"
Seemingly sensing the impending terror, someone shouted loudly.
"I'm not judging a case, why would I need evidence?"
Lin Ce sneered, but ultimately did not make any further moves.
He looked at the people from Lianjiang Water Village.
Do you have any evidence?
Zhong Shiqi and Li Hanzhou both turned green.
These words hit the nail on the head.
The only person who had contact with these people was the Seventh Master, but now the Seventh Master had been slapped to death by Lin Ce, so there was no way to verify the matter. Where could we find any more evidence?
"I heard we have distinguished guests visiting?"
Just as things were reaching a stalemate, a voice came from inside, and two women walked over.
It was none other than the owner, Su Caiying, and Qiangwei.
As Qiangwei followed Su Caiying into the hall, Zhong Shiqi, the "Lancang Scholar," couldn't help but change his expression, looking at her with horror.
Rose's cold, sharp gaze also fell upon Zhong Shiqi.
"What, you know him?"
Su Caiying keenly noticed the unusual behavior of the rose.
"We don't really know each other."
Rose withdrew her gaze, stood behind Su Caiying, and remained silent.
Zhong Shiqi seemed to be in a daze, unable to calm down for a long time.
"Master, what brings you here? There's nothing to see here, why don't you go back first?"
Seeing Su Caiying's big eyes blinking as she stared at everyone present, Lin Ce couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.
I always felt that with this boss involved, things would become more complicated.
"Are you the owner of the escort agency?"
Those people, as if grasping at a straw, hurriedly started shouting.
"If you want to move your escort agency to Sanjiang County, you need the consent of the escort alliance in the county. This is a small matter. We can help you introduce the leader of the escort alliance. However, if you engage in malicious competition and suppress your peers, you will be ostracized by the escort alliance and find it difficult to move an inch in Sanjiang County. At that time, no one will dare to hire you to escort goods."
"Is that so? I've never run a security escort agency, don't lie to me."
Su Caiying clicked her tongue and looked at Lin Ce, "Chief Escort Lin, why don't we figure this out first?"
Lin Ce sighed inwardly.
He knew that things would get complicated if the boss got involved.
"Seventh Sister, if you want to start a security escort business, why don't you consult your older brother? You know, I'm the expert in this business."
As the sound rang out, another figure walked in.
The security escort agency seems to be quite lively today.
Lin Ce's expression changed slightly.
He didn't even notice the person approaching until the other person spoke, at which point he realized the person was close.
This wasn't the case when Su Caiying and the others came before.
Clearly, the person who has just arrived is definitely not low in martial arts.
"Fifth Brother?"
"Fifth Master Su!"
Different voices rang out from Su Caiying and the kneeling people.
