198　　Chen Jie looked at the knife.

　　Xiaodao looked at Chen Jie and said, "You are such a scary guy."

　　Chen Jie said: "Haha, thank you for the compliment, then shall we chat more?"

　　Xiaodao shook his head and said, "No, I won't say another word. You are trying to trick me."

　　Chen Jie heard this and said, "Well, don't say anything. Just listen to me."

　　Xiao Dao grinned and said, "You want to judge by my expression, right? I won't give you a chance, I won't."

　　Um!

　　Chen Jie frowned, then immediately reached out to stop the knife.

　　Xiaodao: "It's too late."

　　As he spoke, he actually stabbed the knife in his hand directly into his throat, then pulled it gently, and half of his head fell off.

　　You won't get any useful information from me.

　　Chen Jie stretched out his hand at this time, watching Xiaodao die so decisively in front of him.

　　A trace of regret appeared on his face. What a pity.

　　You think that if you die, you can save the second brother. It's impossible. As long as you are there, it means that the second brother is involved in this matter.

　　Thinking this way, it seemed as if the matter had already been solved.

　　Zhou Chu also walked in at this time, looked at the family of four hanged, and immediately cursed: "What a beast."

　　Then he turned around and saw Xiaodao who had committed suicide and said, "It's really easy for him."

　　Then he looked at the table that was split open and saw the smooth cut. He said, "This cut... What kind of knife is this? It's so sharp."

　　At this time, Chen Jie took the knife he used to commit suicide from Xiaodao's hand.

　　I held it in my hand and looked at it, and saw that even after the knife had cut so many things, the blade was not damaged at all.

　　Moreover, the blade of this knife is very thin, it is no exaggeration to describe it as thin as a cicada's wing.

　　When Chen Jie saw the knife in front of him, he couldn't let it go.

　　Zhou Chu came over and said, "It's this knife."

　　Chen Jie said: "Yes, it is this knife."

　　Zhou Chu said: "Autumn Cicada."

　　"What?"

　　Zhou Chu said: "This knife is called Qiuchan, it is a famous knife, and it is also very famous in Mianshui County. It was given to Zheng Chuan by his adoptive father when he worshipped him."

　　"This knife is one foot long, as thin as a cicada's wing, and extremely sharp. My foster father got it from the old gang leader of the previous generation. I don't know what kind of natural treasures were added when forging it to make it so sharp."

　　"And the fate of the knife is derived from this knife."

　　After hearing this, Chen Jie pulled out a gold-plated scabbard from Xiaodao's sleeve.

　　I put the knife into the sheath and couldn't let it go. I also needed a short knife for self-defense.

　　Zhou Chu also looked at it with envy, and said to Chen Jie: "Ninety-four, one thousand taels, give me this knife."

　　Chen Jie looked at him and said, "Don't give me that. I won't sell it even for 10,000 taels."

　　Zhou Chu felt a little regretful, and Chen Jie said, "We are brothers. If you like it, I will give it to you."

　　Zhou Chu thought for a moment and said, "Forget it. You have offended so many people. You should keep it for your own self-defense."

　　Chen Jie smiled knowingly, and Zhou Chu said, "Jiu Si, do you want to tell your foster father about what happened here?"

　　Chen Jie looked at Zhou Chu and fell silent. At this point, everything seemed to be deciphered. However, he always felt that there was something strange about this matter, as if someone was secretly controlling everything behind the scenes.

　　This seems like a trap.

　　Chen Jie narrowed his eyes, wondering if he was the gun they used to deal with the Second Brother.

　　But it was indeed the second brother who did all these things, and the death of the fourth brother was also related to the second brother.

　　But it seems that there is someone behind the scenes controlling the situation. Chen Jie wants to find the person who is controlling the situation, so he wants to wait.

　　Just when Chen Jie was hesitating whether to report it directly, a voice suddenly rang out from outside the door: "Lao Wang!"

　　Immediately afterwards, Chen Jie turned around and saw Si Xi.

　　At this time, Si Xi looked at the alert Eagle Guards around with surprise, then looked through the door and saw a room full of dead bodies like hanging bacon.

　　He was shocked: "How could this be!"

　　At the same time, he saw Chen Jie and immediately stepped forward: "Fifth Master, this, this, a small knife!"

　　He bowed to Chen Jie, turned around and saw the dead Xiaodao, and immediately exclaimed.

　　Then he seemed to be panicking and asked, "What on earth is going on?"

　　After hearing this, Chen Jie narrowed his eyes. What a coincidence! How could Sixi come at this time? Thinking of this, he looked at Sixi and said, "Sixi, why are you here?"

　　Upon hearing this, Si Xi immediately said, "Fifth Master, I, I am here to check the accounts with Lao Wang. I am in charge of the shops under your name, including Lao Wang's Tongtai Shop."

　　Chen Jie glanced at Si Xi and said, "Oh, that's a coincidence."

　　"Old Wang, what is going on?"

　　At this time, Si Xi looked at Wang Dafa and asked. Wang Dafa looked at the corpses all over the room, and he was completely hopeless. He raised his head, staring at the corpses hanging all over the room with numb eyes and said, "I deserve to die, I deserve to die!"

　　After hearing what Wang Dafa said, Si Xi frowned slightly and said, "Why are you saying these useless things? Everyone knows that you deserve to die. I want you to say it with your own mouth that it was Zheng Chuan who ordered you to do so."

　　Thinking of this, Si Xi squatted down and said, "Brother Dafa, the dead cannot be resurrected, please accept my condolences."

　　"But their deaths will not be in vain. We must avenge them!"

　　"Brother Dafa, we must take revenge!"

　　"revenge?"

　　Wang Dafa raised his head and looked at Sixi. Sixi said, "We need revenge. We must not let the murderer go unpunished. Master Wu is here. Please help me!"

　　After hearing this, Wang Dafa reacted immediately and knelt down on the ground, saying, "Master Wu, Master Wu, you have to avenge me, avenge my wife and children!"

　　Chen Jie looked at Si Xi deeply. Si Xi was startled and quickly lowered his head, behaving honestly.

　　Chen Jie said: "Okay, Wang Dafa, what did you do and who did you offend to suffer this misfortune? Tell me."

　　After hearing this, Wang Dafa immediately said, "Yes, I'll tell you, I'll tell you."

　　"It's all because of Second Master that I was forced to do it..."

　　Wang Dafa then began to tell what he knew.

　　He was originally the shopkeeper under Feng Xuan, running the Tongyuan Bank. However, while running the Tongyuan Bank, he secretly embezzled the silver from the counter. He thought he had done it perfectly.

　　However, he was discovered by Zheng Chuan, who threatened him to tell Feng Xuan about it.

　　He knew that if he told Feng Xuan about this, he would be finished, so he asked the Second Master to keep the secret for him.

　　Zheng Chuan readily agreed and asked him to help transport some things.

　　He had no choice but to follow the order and help transport the ironware. Then Zheng Chuan found him again and told him that this batch of ironware was sold to Zoroastrianism, which meant that he was colluding with the invaders and was tantamount to treason. If people knew about it, he would be guilty of killing all nine generations of his clan.

　　He was so scared at the time that he begged Zheng Chuan to let him go.

　　Zheng Chuan smiled and said, "Oh, it's just a small matter. It's okay. I like talents the most, and you are a talent."

　　"In this way, you will be responsible for transporting this cargo from now on. Don't worry, it will only happen once every one or two months. It is very safe."

　　"Ah, Second Master, this is a capital crime."

　　Zheng Chuan: "Well, you don't have to do it."

　　Looking at Zheng Chuan's indifferent eyes, Wang Dafa obediently took charge of the transportation.

　　After hearing this, Si Xi turned to look at Chen Jie and said, "Fifth Master, Second Master did it so secretly, how could you find out about this?"

　　Chen Jie narrowed his eyes when he heard this. Zhou Chu beside him said, "Because the delivery note in Qian Shun's hand is stamped with the seal of Tongyuan Bank."

　　"Tongyuan Bank, why did they use the Tongyuan Bank seal?"

　　Si Xi continued to ask, and Chen Jie thought, don't you just want to hear from me that the second brother is planning to put the blame on your uncle?

　　Chen Jie just didn't want to say anything. Zhou Chu suddenly reacted at this time and was about to speak, but Chen Jie gave him a look and he held back the words.

　　Seeing that Chen Jie didn't take the bait, Si Xi frowned. This Chen Jiusi was too difficult to deal with.

　　There was no way, he came with a mission, so there were some things he had to say.

　　At this time, he said, "Ah, Lao Wang, you ungrateful man, you are trying to put the blame on me, you...how can you do this..."

　　Looking at Si Xi who is possessed by the spirit of acting.

　　Chen Jie confirmed that the boss was either the mastermind behind this or he had known about it for a long time.

　　This boss is really a sinister person.

　　At this time, Si Xi said, "Fifth Master, let's report this to Hall Master Peng immediately. This is a very big matter!"

　　Chen Jie remained silent. He didn't want to be used as a gun by the boss.

　　Chen Jie didn't think that smuggling ironware to Zoroastrianism was a big deal.

　　Chen Jie didn't know whether Zoroastrianism was a bad religion, but he felt very sympathetic towards them because they were against the imperial court.

　　Daqian was ruled by foreign races, and the oppression of the Han people was obvious to all. Zoroastrianism united the poor people, the people who could not afford to eat, and the people of the underworld who overthrew the Mulan people. What was wrong with this? How could the Han people be enslaved from generation to generation!

　　Therefore, he didn't think much of the smuggling of ironware.

　　But he wanted to know something else.

　　"Wang Dafa!"

　　"Um?"

　　Wang Dafa looked at Chen Jie.

　　"How did the Fourth Master die?"

　　Chen Jie asked the question that concerned him most.

　　Whether or not to smuggle ironware is none of his business. He just wants to know how the fourth brother Deng Guangming died! Who killed him!
