As soon as Taoist Master Qiu Shi said these words, he suddenly felt a huge force coming towards him.
He was startled and immediately mobilized his spiritual power to resist, but it was of no use. His body was dragged by this huge force and moved in front of Qin Shaoyou almost instantly.
At the same time, I heard Qin Shaoyou's inquiry.
"What happened to Mr. Zhao Ge? What news did you find out?"
Only then did Taoist Qiu Shi realize that the huge force just now came from Qin Shaoyou.
But at this time, he ignored the shock and hurriedly answered:
"The information Mr. Zhao Ge received was false. It was a trap jointly set up by Japanese pirates, evil cults, and the gentry and officials who colluded with them. They set up an ambush to get rid of Mr. Zhao Ge!"
"What?!"
Zhu Xiucai's eyes widened.
"The officialdom in the southeast seems to be in a terrible state! Not only do you dare to kill the task force sent by the Governor, but now you even dare to kill the elders and imperial envoys!
What kind of heinous crimes have they committed in these years? How dare they do such a heinous act for fear of being found out?
No wonder the people I sent to various places to inquire about Mr. Zhao Ge’s whereabouts all found nothing. It seems that there are moles hiding in the guards and yamen in various places to help cover up."
Zhu Xiucai was shocked and angry at the moment.
I originally thought that enough officials and gentry had been raided and arrested in the past few days, but now it seems that it is probably just the tip of the iceberg.
The stall left by Emperor Jianwu is really not ordinary.
After the shock, Zhu Xiucai immediately asked: "Old enemy, is the news you tortured reliable? It was also Li Quan and the others who confessed? Why didn't you ask about this news before?"
Taoist Master Qiu Shi shook his head.
"Li Quan and others did not recruit this information, and they did not know about it.
Do you still remember that when you captured Li Quan and the others, the monk and the puppet marshal caught the servant outside the courtyard who wanted to take advantage of the chaos to escape?"
"He confessed the information."
"That's right!"
Zhu Xiucai looked stunned.
“But didn’t that guy’s interrogation end in the past two days?
I remember that he was very cooperative at the time and confessed everything he knew even before he was tortured."
"It was precisely because this person was too cooperative and confessed so many clues that we were paralyzed. We did not expect that he had concealed the most important things. We did not expect that he was actually able to hide it.
Detection of supernatural objects.
It wasn't until today that we interrogated the newly captured government officials and learned from one of them that that guy had not only inquired about Mr. Zhao Ge's temper in detail before, but also complained to the official that Mr. Zhao Ge was here.
Afterwards, life for their group was difficult, and they didn’t know if they would be settled by Qiu Hou in the future. She mysteriously assured him that he didn’t have to worry about it, saying that it wouldn’t take long before Mr. Zhao Ge would do it.
Become one of them.
When I first heard about this news, I didn't pay much attention to it. Did I think these people wanted to bribe Mr. Zhao Ge?
But the more I thought about it, the more I felt something was wrong.
Since that person has inquired about Mr. Zhao Ge's temper and character in detail, he should know that Mr. Zhao Ge is upright and upright, and follows the Confucian line of governing the country and bringing peace to the world. How can he be bribed by scoundrels like them?
Then I thought of the old story about Painted Skin Ghost pretending to be the grandson of Zhang Shilang, and the demon monk Lianjia pretending to be Mr. Zheng Ge, and hurriedly brought that person out of the prison for interrogation again.
At first, he still refused to attack, but it wasn’t until I used dozens of Gu tortures that I destroyed his will and tortured the news out of his mouth!”
Zhu Xiucai wanted to ask something else, but Qin Shaoyou asked first:
"Where do they plan to ambush Mr. Zhao Ge?"
"I don't know." Taoist Master Qiu Shi shook his head and said, "The person's rank is not high, he is just a person who delivers messages and communicates. I only know this matter because his superior mentioned it. The specific ambush situation
, he doesn’t know anything.”
"Are you sure he doesn't know? Don't let him deceive you again, right?" Zhu Xiucai asked worriedly.
Taoist Master Qiu Shi smiled bitterly and said: "I have tried my best. If he can still hide it, then there is nothing I can do."
Zhu Xiucai nodded, no longer questioning, and asked instead: "Who is his upline? Where is it?"
As he spoke, he had to summon people to catch the online guy.
"have no idea."
Taoist Qiu Shi sighed.
"According to this person's confession, his upline always contacts him when necessary. He doesn't know where his upline is, and even if he wants to contact him, there is no way.
In addition, he also said that every time his supervisor saw him, he wore a Nuo opera mask and a black cloak.
The mask and cloak should have some kind of magical effect, making it difficult for him to see the real appearance of the online person, and he doesn't even know whether he is a man or a woman. Because the voice of the online person has been processed by the mask."
"Really cautious."
Zhu Xiucai cursed, then frowned.
"We have been arresting people with great fanfare in the past few days. If that person is in the city, he must know about the arrest of these people. Under such circumstances, it is difficult to induce him to show up.
.”
Qin Shaoyou nodded in approval.
I originally thought that arresting people and trying them with great fanfare could deter the people in the city who were harboring evil intentions and ready to act, avoid riots, and at the same time reverse the stigma of the editing factory.
Now it seems that although this was successful, it also caused some negative effects.
Such as now.
However, Qin Shaoyou immediately ordered:
"No matter how difficult it is, we must investigate! Xiucai, you immediately lead people to search the whole city, trying to find this upline. In addition, send people to cooperate with the doctors from Qin Tianjian out of the city to detect abnormal energy fluctuations in the surroundings. Also, send
A few smart people are going to check the personnel transfer situation in various health centers and yamen."
"yes."
Zhu Xiucai accepted the order and immediately went to gather people to act according to Qin Shaoyou's instructions.
But at this moment, Cai Guizhong, who had originally followed Cui Youxu and others into the kitchen to eat new dishes, turned back with a solemn expression.
And brought Qin Shaoyou a new message.
"Duke Gong, the God of Japan just sent back the news. When they were patrolling outside the city, they found that some of our people were being chased by Japanese pirates, evil cults and demons..."
"Our people?" Qin Shaoyou was stunned.
"Yes, a general flag officer from the editing factory headquarters was assigned to act as a guard next to Mr. Zhao Ge."
Cai Guizhong's words lifted the spirits of Qin Shaoyou, Zhu Xiucai, Taoist Qiu Shi and others.
They were anxious and had no clues, and the clues came.
The hunted General Banner of the Editorial Factory is very likely to be the key to finding Mr. Zhao Ge.
"Where is this brother? No matter what, we must save his life!"
