Chapter 152 The Storm Is Coming

Bai Hai stood up and was about to leave. Chai Xiangfeng suddenly rushed forward, hugged Bai Hai's feet and said, "Uncle Bai Hai, you must save me! They will definitely come to kill and silence me. Now we just have to

If you can help me, for the sake of your relationship with my father, you can't wait to save me!"

"Who are they?" Bai Hai asked.

Chai Xiangfeng was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to answer for a while. Seeing that he didn't answer, Bai Hai stopped asking any more questions, turned away from the restraints and planned to leave.

Chai Xiangfeng was really anxious now: "Okay, I said, I will tell you everything I know."

"Tell me honestly. If there is even the slightest bit of falsehood, I won't care about it. You can handle it yourself!" Bai Hai threatened.

"The 1.5 million taels of official silver provided for disaster relief in the imperial court was indeed robbed by Murongtian and Meiyin Shitai. After they robbed the official silver, they immediately hid it in the Grand Duke's Mansion on Songshu Poxiang. Then

Murongtian found me and asked me to smuggle out official silver in the name of transporting grain to the Qingcheng sect. As for what happened next, I don’t know anything about it." Chai Xiangfeng said carefully.

"Where did the official silver go? You should know, right?" Bai Hai asked.

"This nephew really didn't know. Because on the way to Qingcheng, a group of strangers suddenly came and transported the official silver to another place. But I took the grain and went to Qingcheng Mountain." Chai Xiang

Feng explained.

"What's the origin of those people? You haven't seen anything at all?"

"No." Chai Xiangfeng shook his head.

"Murongtian and Master Meiyin don't have a good relationship. How could they join forces?" Bai Hai asked again.

"You don't know something about this uncle. It is said that Master Meiyin was married to Murong Tian when she was not a monk in her early years, and they had a son, Murong Jie. Even after Master Meiyin became a monk, she would often be with him.

Murong Tian has contacts secretly, but outsiders don't know about it," Chai Xiangfeng said.

"I see. Who is the main messenger behind this case?" Bai Hai asked sharply.

"My nephew doesn't know about this."

"You don't know who is behind it, but you know someone is trying to kill you. Do you think I'm a three-year-old? I'm so easy to deceive." Bai Hai was furious after hearing this, and made a show of leaving again.

"I really don't know who the mastermind is. I only know that he hired a very powerful person to deal with Murongtian and me. Master Meiyin must have been killed by this person." Chai Xiangfeng was forced by Bai Hai.

, I had to tell everything.

"Who is this killer?" Bai Hai asked.

"It should be... Skeleton Sword Qin Gang." Chai Xiangfeng paused before answering.

"Swordsman! Qin Gang was bribed by him. It seems that the man's background is really quite big!" Bai Hai's business can be so big, he is by no means an idle person, and he has even vaguely noticed it.

It's a serious relationship, but he doesn't have evidence, so he can't be sure.

Bai Hai thought for a while and then said: "Quit all your business immediately, stay at home for the next two days, and never go out. Select the best confidants of the bodyguards and assign them to your home caretakers."

Everything has been changed. I will go to Zitong Mountain immediately and be sure to ask Mr. Woodcutter to come out. Before I come back, you can only take care of yourself."

"What? Aren't you going to Tangmen?" Chai Xiangfeng asked a little puzzled.

"Haha! Going to Tangmen? Far water can't quench our thirst. I'll go to Tangmen, and when I come back, I'll have to collect your body." Bai Hai sneered and went out, no longer listening to Chai Xiangfeng.

nonsense.

—————————————————————————————————————

Zitong Mountain is a little-known hill, less than a hundred miles away from Chengdu.

Zitong Mountain is covered with Zitong trees, hence the name Zitong Mountain.

A deity makes a mountain, not its altitude.

Although there are no gods on Zitong Mountain, it is quite famous near Chengdu Prefecture.

Because there lived a strange man on Zitong Mountain - Mr. Woodcutter.

Mr. Woodcutter is actually a young man of 26 or 27 years old. He lives on Zitong Mountain all year round and makes a living by collecting medicine to treat diseases and selling firewood.

In the rivers and lakes, there are always hidden dragons and crouching tigers, and there are always many mysterious hermits.

No one knows the name of Mr. Woodcutter, because he makes a living by selling medicine and firewood, so they call him Mr. Woodcutter. Mr. Woodcutter is a humble man and has excellent medical skills. He treats the poor and often does not charge a consultation fee.

According to people at the foot of Zitong Mountain, Mr. Timber came to Zitong Mountain when he was a teenager and has lived on the mountain for ten years. During this period, he has not been married, and no relatives have ever visited him.

At first, the locals only knew him as a firewood seller, but then something happened that immediately made Mr. Woodcutter famous.

One day, Bai Hai of Futong Haige went out on a business trip and gained a lot. He returned happily with a full load. When he was near Zitong Mountain, he suddenly encountered robbers.

Bai Hai is also a man skilled in martial arts, and he can easily get rid of ordinary robbers. But this time he was no match for those robbers. He suffered many serious injuries and almost lost his life. Obviously, these robbers were not ordinary people. Bai Hai

Haiben wanted to abandon the goods and escape, but then Mr. Woodcutter suddenly appeared and used a set of palm skills that he had never seen before and it was extremely powerful, beating the group of bandits to death.

Bai Hai was rescued by Mr. Woodcutter. Not only did he retain his character, but his goods were not lost. Naturally, he was extremely happy. Therefore, he paid Mr. Woodcutter a large sum of money and wanted to ask him to be the housekeeper of Bai Mansion. Unexpectedly, Mr. Woodcutter refused to accept it and boldly challenged him.

Chai left and still lived a poor life of selling medicine and cutting firewood. From then on, Bai Hai respected Mr. Woodcutter even more.

An ordinary man cannot seize his will.

Bai Hai had no choice but to order his servants to supply all the firewood at home from logging. He learned that Mr. Timber liked to play chess and was good at playing the piano. He had already given up on business and was idle, so he

He began to study chess and found a professional violinist to learn the piano. Then he often went to Zitong Mountain to play chess and tune the piano. After going back and forth, Bai Hai and Mr. Fengmu became close friends.

Bai Hai knew that Mr. Woodcutter was indifferent to fame and fortune, so he never brought property up the mountain, but only brought wine and meat to his door, and he would only leave after he had run out of wine and meat.

The friendship between gentlemen is as light as water.

Bai Hai knew very well that if he wanted to maintain a good relationship with Mr. Woodcutter, he couldn't have too much money dealings with him. Even if he did, it would be natural and inevitable.

Although Bai Hai had a very good relationship with Mr. Woodcutter, he was originally a wealthy gentleman. Since that incident, he had never asked Mr. Woodcutter for help.

Although Bai Hai and Tang Men were related to each other, the matter was urgent now. Bai Hai was afraid that he would not be able to go to Tang Men for help in time, so he had no choice but to think of Mr. Woodcutter.

He wasn't even sure whether Mr. Woodcutter would help.

Of course, the reason why Bai Hai helped Chai Xiangfeng was not just because of the relationship between the two families. There was also another reason. Bai Hai's daughter Bai Bing and son-in-law Tang Siji both died because of the Guanyin case.
