Pawn Crossing the River

Would a law enforcement officer who would blow someone's head off and even dare to blackmail the gang leader would be a good person in the traditional sense?

Although Qi Xuansu was not a real baron, and he had no intention of delving into who was right and who was wrong between the baron and the congressman, he still planned to teach this guy a small lesson to scare the snake away.

Qi Xuansu stood up and lifted Rose high with one hand. You must know that Rose was completely transformed by the "Alchemy Arcana". He was not so much a body of flesh and blood, but more like half a body of steel. His weight can be imagined. You know, but Qi Xuansu did it without any effort, it was no different from lifting the back of Xiao Yin's neck.

Then Qi Xuansu's right hand grabbed his left arm and pulled it outward. With the law enforcement officer's heartbreaking scream, a prosthetic arm was pulled out by Qi Xuansu with brute force, and the various metal pipes connected inside were pulled out. It was torn off directly, and the large and small gears fell from the wound on the fracture surface. There was no blood inside, only black water and steam.

Qi Xuansu threw the severed arm and the person to the ground at the same time, looking down from above.

Despite the severe pain, Rose was still shocked.

Why does the Baron have such great power? Could that rumor be true?

If he loses to the Baron after a hard fight, Ross will not be so shocked, because his advantage over the four gang leaders lies not in strength, but in identity. After all, he is a law enforcement officer recognized by the city council. Xiacheng District is neglected because it does not want to be managed, not because it cannot be managed. There is no saying that the city council does not dare to enter Xiacheng District. In this case, the four major gang leaders are certainly unwilling to conflict with him head-on.

But he never expected that the Baron would completely crush him from the front, without any tricks, and it was obvious that the Baron did not use all his strength, and he had no power to fight back.

This kind of power is far beyond the scope of his cognition. If the Baron really has such strength, then there will be no such thing as "four respected gentlemen". There will only be one master in Lower City, and the Baron will no longer be Baron, perhaps "count" and "duke" would be more suitable for him.

Even His Highness the Night King who rules the Lower City.

It wasn't just Rose who was shocked.

Also shocked was the old housekeeper.

The old housekeeper personally took Qi Xuansu to the baron's residence and took care of the whole thing. He was the person who knew Qi Xuansu's details best, but he suddenly realized that he was very wrong.

He didn't understand Qi Xuansu's details at all, and he was so wrong.

The old housekeeper felt a chill on his back.

Among the four so-called gentlemen, the Baron is not known for his physical strength, but even in the field of magic that the Baron is good at, it is absolutely impossible to "enforce law" with five steams with a wave of his hand.

\u003c/di\u003e

"Guan" is burned into molten iron.

Not to mention the physical strength that is so violent that it has a different kind of beauty. Even the hound, which is famous for its outstanding physical strength in the entire lower city, cannot cut a quasi-demigod-level prosthetic body with just strength without cutting it with a sharp weapon. Arms torn off. Even if the hound manages to do it by relying on some special means and paying a certain price, it can never be so understated.

The same result, one is done casually, and the other is done with all the strength of sucking milk, can it be the same?

Who is Hosea?

The old housekeeper's eyes when he looked at Qi Xuansu were no longer angry and dissatisfied, and even the shock slowly faded away, leaving only fear.

It's like the fairy tale where the ignorant child brings the devil home and doesn't even realize it.

Rose's heart was heavy, but instead of being extremely angry, he calmed down and said hoarsely, "Baron, is that rumor true?"

There are recent rumors that the Baron has unearthed a relic in an abandoned mine in Lower Town. Of course it is not a relic of Westerners. As outsiders, the history of Westerners in the local area is too short. Maybe in a few hundred years, St. York will become a relic of Westerners, but there are no relics of Westerners yet.

This relic is from the Aboriginal people of the New World. Strictly speaking, it should be a mausoleum.

As we all know, there were three great empires in the New World in the past. It can be said that they come from the same source and influence each other, but they are also very different. Nowadays, the three major empires and the three major civilizations are forcibly merged together, just like melting three iron cans into molten iron and then recasting them into a new iron can. The Westerners swept through the three empires and were the ones who melted the three iron pots. The Orientals helped the natives establish Tawantin and were the ones who recast the iron cans into new ones.

This has led to confusion in Tawanting's faith. The gods are constantly fighting, and the nobles are fighting for power. These are all sources of instability within Tawanting.

This tomb is from a Kukulkan priest.

The so-called Kukulkan is a native ancient god of the New World. He has many images, one of which is a giant feathered snake, also known as Quetzalcoatl. In the mythological system of the New World, he is the sun god and the head of the gods.

It's just that the competition for the position of Sun God is too fierce, and he is probably the god who has fallen the most. For example, the Eastern Emperor Taiyi and Taiyang Zhenjun of Taoism, the Great Sun Tathagata of Buddhism, Yi Zangnuo Zun and Bhimihu Zun of Fenglinzhou, Apollo and Amon of the West, etc. To this day, it is certain that the only sun gods that have not fallen are Maharashtra Tathagata and Himihuzun. The other sun gods are

There are doubts about the gods, and it is suspected that the Great Sun Tathagata has left the human world. There are fewer and fewer sun gods still active in the human world.

Rumor has it that the Baron obtained an artifact left behind by the Sun God Priest.

The sun is closely related to flames. Is the flame that melts the steam "law enforcement officer" into molten iron the power of the sun god Kukulkan?

Is this the source of the Baron’s terrifying power?

Thinking of this, Ross became more and more sure that he had glimpsed the truth.

The Baron became so powerful precisely because he obtained Kukulkan's artifact.

Ross's mood was agitated.

It seems that the baron was stunned by the sudden and powerful force. There is an old saying in the East that a common man is not guilty, but he who has a jade in his possession is guilty. You are just a rat in the downtown area, how dare you dream of possessing a divine weapon? Of course he can't take away the baron's artifact, but as long as he reports the matter to the Holy See, the patriarch and cardinal will definitely be very interested.

However, Ross's mood did not last long. He suddenly realized another problem. Maybe the Patriarch could easily destroy the Baron, but he would definitely not be able to see that day. The Baron revealed the fact that he possessed the artifact, so how could he be allowed to leave alive to report it?

Maybe in normal times, the Baron was concerned about his identity and didn't dare to kill him, but when it came to a life-and-death moment, how could the Baron hold back?

Thinking of this, Ross felt cold all over and full of despair.

The old housekeeper thought of another possibility.

None of this was a coincidence, it was a clever plan, a perfect trap, and he was the poor guy who took the initiative to step into the trap.

This terrifying being who calls himself Hosea Matthews is coming for the Baron.

He knew the Baron's secret.

In fact, Qi Xuansu didn't think that much at first. His extraordinary behavior can only be said to be asking for directions or trying to scare the snake. To put it more simply, if there is a date or no date, hit three poles first. After all, he couldn't just play the baron all the time and just do whatever the old butler said. There was no such reason.

Qi Xuansu asked Monica what help she needed, and also vaguely scolded Micah. In fact, he wanted to see their reactions, but these two people probably didn't know the inside story.

Finally, there was the violence against Rose.

Unexpectedly, the snake was actually frightened out.

Although Qi Xuansu didn't know the specific inside story, judging from the dramatic emotional changes between Ross and the old housekeeper, there must be a lot of inside story.

Isn’t this an unexpected harvest?

Just as Ross expected, Qi Xuansu was not going to let him go. although

\u003c/di\u003e

Although the result is the same, the reason is different. Qi Xuansu does not want to silence, but wants to know more.

Qi Xuansu did not answer Rose's question, but raised his hand and Rose was restrained, unable to move.

Then Qi Xuansu ordered his subordinates outside to come in and invite Mr. Ross to the basement.

These subordinates did not know the inside story and only thought that Qi Xuansu was the real baron. Although the baron suddenly gained far more power than usual, it was not a bad thing for them, and they naturally had to obey Qi Xuansu's orders.

Soon, Qi Xuansu and the old housekeeper were the only two people left in the hall except for a large iron lump solidified by molten iron.

The old housekeeper's lips trembled slightly. After a long time, he finally said with difficulty, "Who are you?"

"I am the Baron." Qi Xuansu replied, "Ramon O'Shea."

At this moment, Wu Niang appeared on Datie Tuozi and said, "That's it. You're addicted to acting. There's obviously something going on here."

"Of course I know." Qi Xuansu responded in his heart, "This is our unexpected gain, which proves that our trip is worthwhile."

Qi Xuansu said to the old housekeeper again, "Just now, the Ross law enforcement officer said, 'Baron, is that rumor true?' What do you think?"

The old housekeeper was silent at first, and then forced out a professional smile: "Your Excellency, rumors stop with the wise."

Qi Xuansu snorted coldly, "Your words will almost classify me as a fool."

The old housekeeper suddenly suffocated and felt tremendous pressure.

This kind of pressure is like a mortal facing a giant dragon, there is no reason at all.

Controlling anger actually means controlling emotions.

For a qualified superior, getting angry is to express an attitude rather than to vent an emotion. For example, when Zhang Yuelu reprimanded Xiao Yin, it was not necessarily true that she was really that angry. The key was that she had to show a firm attitude through her anger and cooperate with the corresponding punishment so that Xiao Yin would remember it. Otherwise, there will be a next time after the violation. Change, change again, do it again, no end

.

Qi Xuansu knew the truth well, so he did not speak harshly, but just talked calmly without any clear attitude, which made the already anxious old housekeeper feel even more stressed.

After a while, the old housekeeper finally couldn't bear the pressure and said, "Part of that rumor is true."

Qi Xuansu nodded slightly, "Continue."

The old butler took a deep breath, "The baron did find a huge tomb from the local indigenous people. It was the tomb of the Kukulkan priest, but the baron did not get any artifact."
