Volume 4: Holy Capital Tribulation Chapter 210: Forgetting Each Other in the Jianghu (Part 2)

"I joined Xuanmen out of necessity," Li Ronger said to Xu Zun in the tavern, "Without their help, I would not be able to become the leader of the Sanhe Gang."
Xu Zun recovered from his shock, helped Li Ronger up, and asked, "You told me these things, aren't you afraid that they will kill you to silence you?"
"I've had enough of them," Li Rong'er said indignantly, "Now that I can't even protect my sister, what's the point of being the leader of the gang!?"
Speaking of Lee Yoon-ah, Lee Rong-er burst into tears again.
"Then..." Xu Zun looked him over and asked, "Aren't you afraid that I will punish you?"
"Master Xu saved my life. If I repay kindness with hatred, I am not a human being!" Li Ronger said with a fist. "If Master wants to punish Ronger, Ronger has nothing to say. I will do as you wish."
"I can't believe it..." Xu Zun took a sip from the wine flask and said, "The power of Xuanmen is so great that they even have people in a remote place like Yonghui!
"Let me ask you, what did they ask you to do when they asked you to join Xuanmen?"
"There are mainly two things," Li Ronger said, "One is to make money, and the other is to collect intelligence! My Sanhe Gang is well-informed, and once we find out any important information, we must report it to them.
"Sir," she said worriedly, "I don't know how you have offended the Xuanmen. The higher-ups have ordered that once you solve the case of the evil ghost eating people, you will be killed immediately. Sir, you must be on guard early!"
"Oh..." Xu Zun pondered, "So, the case of evil ghosts eating people has nothing to do with Xuanmen?"
"Sir," Li Rong'er reminded again, "Didn't you hear what I said? They want to kill you!"
"Haha..." Xu Zun suddenly laughed, "It doesn't matter, isn't my case still unsolved?"
A few hours later.
In the Yonghui County Yamen, a fierce battle took place in Tao Lang's bedroom. The truth of the evil ghost murder case was revealed and the Suanni ghost in the secret room was also burned.
In the lobby of the county government office, Xu Zun dismissed Zhuang Jingcheng and others from the Zishan faction, leaving only Li Ronger behind, and advised her not to dwell on the matter of the evil ghost eating people.
"Sir..." Li Ronger said solemnly, "I am staying here not to argue with you, but to remind you that the case has been solved. You must be careful about your safety!"
"Rong'er," Xu Zun asked seriously, "Have you ever thought that if I escape the assassination of Xuanmen, you will also die? They must know that it was you who betrayed them!"
"I..." Li Rong'er shook her head woodenly, with a look of determination, "I don't care anymore! Yuner is dead, and I have nothing to worry about from now on."
"I do have an idea," Xu Zun said, "Why don't we use their own tricks against them and kill them in return."
"What? Counterattack!" Li Rong'er was surprised, "You want to use me to catch the people from Xuanmen?"
"No," Xu Zun said, "I want to use the people of Xuanmen to capture Xuanmen. We want to make this matter bigger and make the people of Xuanmen think that you and I are both dead, so as to eliminate their vigilance."
"Then..." Li Ronger was puzzled, "What should we do?"
"But..." Xu Zun said, "No matter what you do, once the matter is done, you can no longer stay in Yonghui!"
"I couldn't ask for more!" Li Ronger said decisively, "For me, nothing else matters anymore."
"Okay, let me ask you," Xu Zun asked, "Does your Sanhe Gang... have explosives?"
"Explosives?" Li Ronger was even more surprised. "What are you going to do?"
At this time, there was a noise outside the lobby.
"It's not convenient to talk here," Xu Zun said, "Slow down on your way back to Sanhe Gang. I will catch up with you, and then we can finalize the details on the way..."
After Li Ronger left, Xu Zun was discussing something with Zhao Yu.
Xu Zun suddenly suggested that Zhao Yu go to Yunlong Mountain to find General Jinghui who was about to massacre the city.
"Tell him," Xu Zun said secretly, "In two days, we will take him to catch the Xuanmen rebels. If we can catch the leader of Xuanmen, it will be a great achievement for him, and it can be considered a gain. At the same time, we will have an extra life-saving capital."
"Ah?" Zhao Yu was surprised. "Is this true? Sir...you..."
Before Zhao Yu asked any questions, Ah Xiu had already entered the hall and announced the Queen Mother's order.
After receiving the Queen Mother's instructions, Xu Zun immediately caught up with Li Ronger's carriage and told Li Ronger his plan in the carriage.
"What?" Li Ronger was shocked after hearing Xu Zun's plan. "You want to blow up the ship at Kuhe Wharf? Should we blow it up ourselves?"
"Yes!" Xu Zun said firmly, "With so many things happening, the people of Xuanmen must have become suspicious of you. I want to keep the risk to a minimum. I can't sail on a ship full of explosives.
"As long as the ship explodes at the dock, the people of Xuanmen will be thrown into disarray and reveal their flaws..."
Kuhe Wharf two days later.
Huo Anu and Ani boarded the ship in advance. Based on the information provided by Li Ronger, they quietly entered the bottom of the cabin to look for the explosives that had been set up long ago.
At this moment, two Xuanmen disciples, Zijian and Feishuang, who were disguised as sailors, had already knocked out the sailors in the cabin. Once Xu Zun and Li Ronger got on board, they would light the fuse and blow up the ship.
The appearance of Zijian Feishuang was not part of Xu Zun's plan, but when Huo Anu and Ani saw this, they naturally realized the seriousness of the situation, so they immediately attacked from behind and started fighting with the two.
Although Zijian and Feishuang were both strong in martial arts and could have fought against Huo Anu and the other two, they were ambushed and were already in a chaotic situation.
Not long after, Hou Zhen and several other guards came down to reinforce. Under the combined siege of several people, Zi Jian Fei Shuang could no longer resist and was soon severely injured and captured.
According to Li Ronger's prior arrangement, a large hole had already been dug on the side of the boat, which allows direct access to the ancient sluice passage under the dock .
So, several people carried the unconscious sailor and Zijian Feishuang into the passage.
After everyone was evacuated, the performance officially began.
Xu Zun first boarded the ship with Li Ronger and pretended to introduce the ship owner. Then Huo Anu and the guards made fighting and shouting noises in the cabin to attract Xu Zun and others into the cabin.
After entering the cabin, Li Ronger immediately knocked out the ship owner and took him into the passage, while Huo Anu ignited the explosives.
By the time the ship exploded, they had already reached safety through the ancient sluice gate.
At the same time as the explosion, Zhao Yu, Ashuzi and others who were stationed on the periphery had already started their operations.
According to the information provided by Li Ronger, they had already noticed the "Taoist Master" who was wearing a gray robe with a hat brim covering his head.
After seeing the ship explode so suddenly, killing his two beloved disciples, Dao Zun immediately rode out of the city and headed southeast.
Ashuzai is good at tracking, so the two immediately decided that Ashuzai would be responsible for tracking while Zhao Yu would go to notify the army.
Ah Xiu left marks along the way and finally followed to Xuanmen's secret base.
Zhao Yuze then led his troops to surround the entire valley.
In fact, even without Ashura's tracking, Xu Zun could still find their base camp.
Because after coming out of the sluice channel, Xu Zun immediately conducted an emergency interrogation of Zi Jian Fei Shuang.
Hou Zhen and his men were all internal guards, good at interrogation, and it didn’t take long for them to get the two to reveal the location of the base camp…
