Chapter 180 Seizing People in the Chaos

Old Wei originally wanted everyone to stand still. After all, if we made a move now, we would be discovered by the major tomb robbing gangs. In that case, we would be alarming the snake and possibly disrupting the original strategic deployment.

But plans can't keep up with changes. These two groups of tomb robbers were too ruthless, especially the group we didn't recognize. They swung their pickaxes and shovels wildly, seemingly trying to kill all the tomb raiders we met at the hotel.

The tomb raiders from the hotel were getting desperate. One of them shouted loudly, "Damn it, we're all in the same business, can't you guys be a little less ruthless? Are you really trying to kill us? Liu Huangshu (Uncle Liu) is a respectable figure in this business, how can you treat fellow tomb raiders like this?"

As soon as Hu Wazi heard this, he jumped up from the bushes.

"Great, it really is a case of enemies meeting on a narrow road! So these rats are Liu Huangshu's men!"

Not only Hu Wazi, but I also felt my blood rush to my head. When I thought of Uncle Mei and Da Yong lying in the hospital bed, covered in bandages, I couldn't swallow this anger.

Seeing that Hu Wazi was a little out of control, Old Wei quickly whispered, "Hu Wazi, calm down, let's see what happens first."

As a result, Hu Wazi was like a deaf man, not listening to Old Wei's command at all. He turned to Er Jun and Yun Jie and said, "Have you figured out which group is Liu Huangshu's?"

Er Jun said that he had figured it out, the group that was gaining the upper hand was Liu Huangshu's.

Hu Wazi sneered, "Good, follow me. Attack ruthlessly, don't hold back!"

After speaking, he pulled a baton out of his sleeve like a magic trick. With a flick of his wrist, the baton extended with a "whoosh".

I looked down and immediately took a deep breath.

I had seen this thing before. Under normal circumstances, the baton body is cylindrical. Although it hurts when it hits someone, it won't cause any serious injuries.

But the baton in Hu Wazi's hand was hexagonal. This thing is made of metal, filled with lead, and shaped into a hexagon. If it hits someone, wouldn't it leave a bloody mark with every blow?

In the blink of an eye, Yun Jie and Er Jun also grabbed their weapons and rushed up. The three of them didn't say a word and charged towards Liu Huangshu's group.

The three Pao Ge (Brothers Society members) were tall and strong, and they were also fresh troops, catching Liu Huangshu's tomb robbing gang off guard.

For a time, the three of them were like three hungry wolves rushing into a flock of sheep, causing chaos wherever they went!

Hu Wazi grabbed the tomb raiders by the collar and slammed the baton on their heads three times!

Only screams could be heard in the forest. Liu Huangshu's lackeys were beaten by these three Pao Ge until they were crying for their parents, with no ability to resist!

The other group of tomb raiders was about to be completely wiped out, but suddenly saw three heroes rushing out of the forest to help them. They were both surprised and delighted, and also picked up their weapons and followed Hu Wazi and Er Jun to counterattack Liu Huangshu's tomb raiders.

They were holding pickaxes and shovels. With each blow, blood splattered everywhere. Old Wei, watching from the side, twitched his mouth straight and quickly shouted, "Stop, stop! Stop it now!"

But the three groups of people were blinded by bloodlust. No matter how Old Wei shouted, it was useless. He had no choice but to take out his real weapon from his waist and fire a shot into the sky.

Hearing the gunshot, the group finally calmed down, especially the rats on both sides. They were naturally guilty of being thieves. Hearing the sound of the Xiaoling Guard's gun, they trembled with fear, unable to even hold their weapons steady.

Several clever ones knew that the authorities had arrived. They threw down their weapons and turned around to run into the gully, not caring whether there was a road ahead, and scrambled into the bushes.

Hu Wazi led the two Pao Ge to watch the scene. If the rats under Liu Huangshu wanted to escape, they would be caught on the spot. If the other group of tomb raiders fled, they would turn a blind eye.

Seeing that the situation was under control, Old Wei led the Xiaoling Guards to arrest people. There were sixteen or seventeen people in total from both groups. Four or five ran away, leaving eleven.

Most of them were Liu Huangshu's men. These people were either beaten by the other group of tomb raiders until their heads were bleeding, or they were beaten black and blue by Hu Wazi.

Before Old Wei could speak, Hu Wazi grabbed one of the older tomb robbers and slapped him twice, asking, "Where is Liu Huangshu? Tell me! If you don't tell me, I'll kill you!"

Before the tomb robber could open his mouth, Hu Wazi punched him twice on the head, cursing, "You won't talk, huh? Don't blame me for being ruthless!"

The tomb robber was about to cry, give me a chance to speak...

Old Wei saw that the tomb robber was about to be beaten to death by Hu Wazi, and quickly pulled him away, saying, "Alright, alright, leave the interrogation to us, you go to the side and have a smoke and rest for a while."

Hu Wazi refused, staring and saying, "That won't work, I want to watch from the side."

Old Wei was helpless and had to interrogate the group under Hu Wazi's "supervision."

In an emergency, Old Wei was a little impatient when he asked, and said loudly, "How did you guys start fighting? Tell me the truth!"

The tomb robber still wanted to lie, his eyes darting around, making up a story, "We are just two groups of people who have a grudge, and we agreed to fight and take revenge in this forest, that's all..."

This rat was obviously an old hand, knowing clearly that if he said that it was two groups of people fighting, then at most it would be a charge of creating a disturbance, and they would be released after a few days of detention.

But if it involved tomb robbing, especially robbing such an ancient tomb from the ancient Shu period, then it would be a prison sentence of at least ten years, and he might even lose his life.

As a result, as soon as he heard this, before Old Wei could speak, Hu Wazi walked over again, grabbed him by the collar, and swung his arms around, slapping him four times left and right.

Old Wei couldn't bear to watch anymore, frowning and saying, "Hu Wazi, calm down, how can you use torture?"

Hu Wazi snorted coldly, "I'm not a government person, I don't have to be bound by these rules!"

After speaking, he pointed to the dazed tomb raider and said, "Stop talking nonsense, I know what you're here for! You are all rats who dig graves and steal corpses, you're here to dig up zongzi (corpses) in the ancient city of Qu, you are Liu Huangshu's men, besides you, there are several other tomb robbing gangs!"

As soon as the tomb raider heard this, his face turned pale, knowing that his group had been investigated clearly, and it was useless to lie any more.

Seeing that he had lost his energy, Old Wei took the opportunity to say, "Alright, tell the truth, you haven't entered the tomb yet, if you are really sentenced, the sentence won't be too heavy, if you cooperate obediently, you can all be dealt with leniently..."

I don't know if the tomb robber was hoping for a lighter sentence or was afraid of being beaten by Hu Wazi. This time, he finally gave in and said with his head down, "I confess, I confess everything... we are indeed here to rob the tomb, the leader is Liu Huangshu, I'm just a coolie, I've only been in the business for a month or so, Liu Huangshu sent me to watch the wind on the mountain, the other brothers are locating the burial site and digging a盗洞 (dao dong, tomb tunnel)... as a result, we were just about to take action tonight when we ran into another group of people in the same business, and the two groups fought over the territory..."
