Watching the backs of the people as they left, Qin Fengming felt a bit of unease. Baidu search www..com
The five people who remained at the branch office showed no signs of abnormality, but the two middle-aged men who walked towards the outside of the branch office exchanged glances when they left the building.
Although this action was not particularly strange, after the two men exchanged glances, a middle-aged man who had originally planned to follow the five people to the back residence spoke a few words to them and then left the branch office with the other middle-aged man.
Although Qin Fengming had little worldly experience, he still sensed something unusual about the actions of these two men.
With a flick of his body, Qin Fengming left the Luoxia Valley branch office. Concealed in the shadows, he followed the two middle-aged men at a distance of several dozen feet, moving silently with the rapid speed of the Biyun Mizen body technique.
The two men did not look back or speak a word, and everything seemed very calm. After turning several corners, they entered a residence with three courtyards.
It was already midnight, and the entire residence was dark. After the two middle-aged men entered the residence, a light suddenly turned on in one of the rooms in the third courtyard a moment later.
Qin Fengming did not stay in the front courtyard but went directly to the back garden, hiding outside the window where the light was visible, and listened intently to the conversation between the two men in the room.
"Huang brother, what do you think of what the branch leader said just now?"
As soon as he sat down, one of the men spoke. His voice was extremely low, as if the matter he was talking about was very serious.
"Hmph, what high opinion? What high opinion can there be? Brother Wang, do you still want me to betray Luoxia Valley again?"
Hearing this, the other man replied with a hateful voice. From his words, it seemed that the two of them had betrayed Luoxia Valley before.
"Ha ha ha, Huang brother, don't forget that you were also involved in that matter. If it weren't for your infatuation with the Jinque girl at the Drunken Red Building, how would we have fallen into the hands of the Wang brothers of Tiancang Mountain?"
"Hmph, you still have the nerve to mention this. Although I was infatuated with that prostitute and competed with Wei Hu at the time, the one who incited me was you. Later, I realized that this was definitely a trap set by you and Wei Hu to frame me. Although I agreed to embezzle the branch office's funds that time, I will not collude with you again this time."
The middle-aged man surnamed Huang became increasingly angry as he spoke, and his face turned very unpleasant.
"Ha ha ha, embezzling the branch office's funds once? Huang brother, don't forget that the ambush of my dozens of disciples on Liangshan was also told to you. After that, a sum of money also entered your account."
"What? That incident was also the work of the Wang brothers of Tiancang Mountain? Wasn't it said that the Wu Mountain people did it? Ah, I understand, this must have been your deliberate lie. Good, good, Wang Peng, you really have a good mind, gradually forcing Huang to a dead end. Aren't you afraid that I will kill you now?"
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man surnamed Huang's eyes immediately turned fierce, and he was about to pounce on the middle-aged man opposite him.
"Huang brother, hold on, I still have something to say. Your martial arts are higher than mine, and I am very aware of this. For this, I have a backup plan. If I die, the things you did will immediately be told to Zhang Qingshan. If you don't believe me, you can try."
After saying this, the middle-aged man surnamed Wang crossed his arms and did not resist at all, exposing his chest to the middle-aged man surnamed Huang's palm.
After a long moment, a sigh of helplessness came from the middle-aged man surnamed Huang: "After this matter is over, I will resign to Branch Leader Zhang and no longer serve as the head of the investigation hall."
Hearing the words of the middle-aged man surnamed Huang, the man surnamed Wang smiled slightly: "Hehe, that's good. With the contributions you have made to Tiancang Mountain over the years, the Wang brothers will definitely welcome you. At that time, you can bring your wife and son to Tiancang Mountain and enjoy a peaceful life."
Hearing this, the middle-aged man surnamed Huang was shaken again. Faced with the threat to his family, he had no will to resist.
"Hehe, if Huang brother has no objections, I will inform Tiancang Mountain of tonight's matter. With your help, even if something unexpected happens when Luoxia Valley sends people, they will certainly not suspect us."
After saying this, the middle-aged man surnamed Wang took out a pen and ink, wrote for a moment on a strip of paper about an inch wide, and then placed it in a small bamboo tube.
Bending down, he suddenly had a pigeon in his hand.
A moment later, the sound of flapping wings was heard, and a small black shadow disappeared into the darkness.
Hearing the conversation between the two men, Qin Fengming already knew what they were up to.
Without waiting to hear more from the two traitors, Qin Fengming's body moved rapidly, and he leaped into the darkness.
His only thought was to intercept the pigeon.
With the speed enhanced by the Biyun Mizen body technique, he moved extremely fast, covering several dozen feet in just a few breaths. He saw a black shadow flash about twenty feet ahead, which was undoubtedly the pigeon.
But just as Qin Fengming noticed the flying black shadow, a figure also appeared in front of him.
"Bang!"
Just as Qin Fengming was startled, a loud sound suddenly came from ahead. The black pigeon seemed to have hit something and fluttered down.
Qin Fengming's body flashed and he suddenly stopped. A long sword appeared in his hand.
"Who is there, please show yourself."
"Hehehe, you are my junior brother Qin Fengming, right? I am your fifth senior brother."
With a light laugh, a figure appeared. At the same time, the figure raised his hand, and a black object floated towards Qin Fengming.
Seeing the object flying towards him, Qin Fengming did not dare to touch it directly with his hand but used a deer skin bag to catch it.
Although he heard the man call out his name and claim to be his fifth senior brother, he did not lower his guard at all.
Holding the deer skin bag, he looked closely at the object inside. It was a token identical to the one given by the hall leader, with the character "five" written on it.
Seeing this, Qin Fengming had no doubt that the person in front of him was indeed the fifth senior brother of the Dark Night Hall he was looking for.
