Chapter 71 [070] Sea Dragon King Rumors
Every member of the Tiger Gang has a token on them, which is used to verify their identities.

The leader of the gang has a gold-plated token. After Wang Meng became the leader of the gang, Chen Sheng handed it over to him as a proof that Wang Meng was the new leader of the gang.

Qin Yuesheng touched the token that was bigger than a palm in his hand, and said to himself: "Tiger Gang, you guys are really endless, it seems that Qingyang City can't keep you."

Putting down the token, Qin Yuesheng immediately picked up the small jar, which contained two pills the size of longan.

After all, he didn't know whether he would get the Almighty Essence after eating the poisoned pill with the help of a super booster, or just burp.

This kind of thing can't be gambled.

As for the pure gold insole, Qin Yuesheng told Chunfeng to take it for washing, and after it was melted down, it could be used as funds to buy pills.

At present, Qingyang City has not purchased large amounts of pills, so Qin Yuesheng plans to choose a day to spare and go to Yangzhou Prefecture to buy some. Of course, the premise must be that the funds are in place, and the price of good pills is not cheap.

"Master."

At this time, Cao Zhengchun came in from outside the house. Qin Yuesheng asked Cao Zhengchun to see Qin Feng's reaction just after that kind of thing happened in the mansion.

Although the reason for this matter is unknown, Qin Yuesheng can somewhat guess that it must be because of him that Wang Meng entered the Qin residence. After all, when the fellow killed him, he kept urging the children of the Qin family to come out to see him.

"Young Master, Master is not in the residence, nor is Second Madam," Cao Zhengchun said.

"Oh? Where did that go?"

"Ah Fu, who is serving the master, and A Xiang, who is serving the second wife, said that a cargo ship under the Qin family's banner that was going to Chang'an to transport goods will arrive at the Gusu Wharf this morning, and the master and the second wife are going to pick it up."

"Oh." Qin Yuesheng breathed a sigh of relief: "It turns out that they are not in the mansion. I said that there was such a big commotion just now, why can't they be seen?"

Passing the small jar to Cao Zhengchun, Qin Yuesheng said: "Go and do something for me again, take this to Dr. Hua for inspection to see if it is poisonous or harmful to the human body, if not, take it back."

"Yes."

……

Gusu Wharf.

Qingyang City is adjacent to the Gusu River, and there are merchants traveling from south to north, so water transportation is very developed.

This time Qin Feng specially asked people to go to Chang'an to purchase the cargo ship. Naturally, he wanted to come to the pier to check in person.

As the head of the Qin family, of course, Qin Feng didn't need to personally deliver ordinary goods, but this time the cargo ship brought in from Chang'an was expensive jade and wood, with a total value of more than 4000 taels of gold.

This amount of money is not a small amount to the Qin family, so Qin Feng is very concerned about it.

Standing with Duan Hongjin at the pier, at the upper reaches of the Gusu River, a two-story cargo ship slowly approached, with three large flags planted at the bow, with the characters "Qin" on them.

The boat relies on the sail, and the sail borrows the wind, but it flies all the way in.

"Master, the boat is coming." Duan Hongjin said softly.

"Yeah." Qin Feng nodded, and his tense body relaxed a lot.

The merchant ship approached the pier, and the whole picture was seen by everyone on the shore, but it was strange that there was not a single crew member on the deck at this moment, and the whole ship was quite quiet.

This situation is extremely abnormal. Generally speaking, anchoring, hanging rope, and lowering sails are necessary operations after docking, otherwise the ship will hit the pier, or continue to float downstream without restriction.

"Master and Madam, be careful!"

Immediately, guards pulled Qin Feng and Duan Hongjin apart, and within a few blinks, the cargo ship slammed into the edge of the pier, directly knocking out a lot of cracks in the bluestone of the pier.

If it wasn't for Qin Feng leaving a certain distance, he might be in danger.

"What's the situation? Why isn't there even a single person who broke down." The Qin family's boatmen who were guarding the pier asked questions one after another.

A few quick-response people immediately took out the emergency rope hook on the shore and threw it to the ship. After fixing the fence of the cargo ship, they quickly climbed onto the deck and prepared to board the ship and drop anchor.

However, the moment they boarded the deck, the boatmen were stunned.

What appeared in front of their eyes turned out to be scattered human skins.

Numbness in the scalp and chills in the back are the best portrayal of them at this moment.

"Above, why are you in a daze? Hurry up and fix the boat." A supervisor of the Qin family standing on the pier immediately shouted.

"Dead, dead people, all of them are dead people."

"Huh?" Qin Feng and Duan Hongjin looked at each other.

Even if they haven't seen the situation on the deck, they already feel that something is wrong at this moment.

"Fix the boat, put down the wooden ladder and let us go up and have a look." Qin Feng said.

Those boatmen ate the food of the Qin family, so they naturally had to do things. No matter how scared they were, they still obediently followed suit. Soon after a few heavy anchors were thrown over the deck and fell into the water, the cargo ship immediately stabilized. Strips of hemp rope as thick as an adult's wrist were thrown onto the pier.

The boatmen who stayed at the dock hurriedly tied the hemp ropes to the iron rods embedded in the ground of the dock, so that the boat was completely controlled.

Watching a wooden ladder made of square boards being lowered slowly, Qin Feng said to Duan Hongjin: "You don't want to go up, just stay here and wait for me."

"Good sir."

When he got on the deck, Qin Feng understood why those boatmen acted so flustered.

The scene in front of him is really not something ordinary people can bear. Even Qin Feng, as the head of the Qin family, still couldn't help but feel chills all over his body when he saw the human skin in that place, and he was a little speechless.

"Master, there are a total of 23 human skins on the deck, all of which are crew members of this ship." After the guard checked, he came back to report.

Qin Feng: "What about the cabin? Have you checked the inside of the boat?"

"not yet."

"Hurry up and check."

"Yes."

Looking at the human skin on this deck, Qin Feng's face was solemn.

After being the head of the Qin family for so many years, this was the first time he encountered such a thing.

Who is it that is so cruel to do such vicious things.

water bandit?Or Jiangyang Bandit?
Not long after, the guards who entered the cabin came out.

"Master, there are dozens of human skins inside, besides..." the guard paused, hesitant to say it.

"Continue talking." Qin Feng said.

"There is a room full of skinless corpses of crew members, but it's strange, their corpses are all stuck to the wall like paste, and they can't be pried off. In addition..." The guard touched his nose and felt a little uncomfortable. He said sadly: "The jade stored in the cabin has all been turned into powder."

These words were like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, instantly shocking Qin Feng so that his face turned pale.

The reason why he came to the pier in person was not because the goods transported by water were too expensive.

Unexpectedly, with thousands of worries and worries, the worst still happened.

"The reporter, go to the reporter."

……

As the saying goes, there are no waves without wind, and when there are waves, the lake and the sea sway.

The incident that happened to the Qin family spread quickly in Qingyang City.

You can control your own mouth, but you can't control other people's.

I don't know who was the first to leak the news, so that many people knew what happened on the Qin family's cargo ship.

Human skin, skinless blood corpse, powdered jade material.

These three things spread more and more widely, and the more they spread, the more outrageous they became, and many rumors soon appeared in the market.

Among them, the most acceptable statement was that the cargo ship of the Qin family had offended the Sea Dragon King, so Hai Yacha, a subordinate of the Sea Dragon King, came to punish the crew.

And it just so happened that skinning people was rumored to be the way Hai Yasha punished fishermen.

In less than a day, the matter became more and more mysterious, and at the same time, there was a lot of commotion. Many old men and women went to the bank of Gusu River with various tributes, and threw things into the river, begging for forgiveness from the Sea Dragon King.

As for the cargo ship of the Qin family, the government's arresters have already brought it under control. No one is allowed to approach within a radius of [-] steps. Many good people stand outside the forbidden line to watch, but only a few people can be seen. The figure of the catcher wandering back and forth on the deck.

"Boss Xing, this doesn't look like someone did it."

"Xiao Liu, tell me your understanding of this matter."

"I think there must be something strange about this matter."

Xing Biao: "..."

Liu Xiaoliu: "..."

In the room covered with skinless blood corpses, several policemen with white cloths tied to their faces were searching for clues in the room.

They are all senior police officers who have been working in Qingyang City Yamen for many years, and they have seen quite a lot of tragic murders. Before, those young police officers could not stay in the room for long before they had to go out and spit.

Too many times really affected the efficiency of handling the case. As the leader of the team, Xing Biao asked all the old policemen to come in to investigate the case, while the new policemen went outside to guard and did not allow the people to approach the ship.

"grown ups."

"grown ups."

Suddenly, there were footsteps outside the house, and Xing Biao turned his head to look, and saw Xun Sheng appearing outside the door, holding a handkerchief to his nose and asking, "How is it?"

Xing Biao said: "My lord, these blood corpses were all peeled off smoothly by sharp weapons. It looks very similar to the method of the famous Jiangnan villain 'Blood Hand Butcher' back then, but it is still not certain that he did it."

Xun Sheng asked, "How long have these people been dead?"

"Wu Zuo is still judging, and I don't know at the moment."

Seeing the room full of blood red in front of him, and the bloody corpses sticking to the wall like spiders, Xun Sheng could not help but shudder, and subconsciously touched the jade wrench he was wearing on his thumb.

The scene in front of me really can't be watched for a long time. If I watch too much, I won't be able to sleep at night and have nightmares.

Just as Xun Sheng was about to return to the deck, he suddenly heard a wooden board under his feet loosen slightly, but he didn't see any reaction. A bloody arm burst out from under the board and grabbed Xun Sheng. ankle.

boom!
With the appearance of a hole in the ground, Xun Sheng himself has disappeared from the eyes of everyone.

"grown ups!"

"grown ups!"
