Chapter 23: The Fearsome Conspiracy

  Murong Ding's face was flushed, his mouth agape, and he leaned back in his chair, making it seem as though he had fallen into a deep sleep after getting drunk. Even if someone were to light firecrackers right next to his ear, he might not even wake up!

  Jade Dragon smiled slightly, he knew this was the appearance of someone who had been knocked out by the hallucinogenic drug, looking like a dead pig sleeping past, but in fact, at this time as long as you whisper a question in his ear, it's guaranteed to get an answer, far surpassing any lie detector test.

  But he didn't know where this psychedelic drug came from.

  Jiulong Fei sat beside Murong Ding, looking at his originally pale face now flushed with wine. His heart was surging with emotions as an answer that had been troubling him for many days was about to be revealed. Not only would he understand the truth behind his wife and daughter's murder, but also the real reason why he had been pursued step by step.

  Jiulong took a deep breath, suppressing his racing heartbeat and clearing his mind. He decided to start with simple questions, fearing that if he asked something too profound, Mu Rongding, who had also received special agent training, would still be able to muster some willpower to resist in the midst of confusion. So he asked softly: "How did you get injured on your hand?"

  Murong Ding's originally calm face suddenly twitched, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he said: "Bitten by a dog!"

  Jiulong Fei saw that his mouth was twitching, a bit uneasy, afraid that the hypnotic drug's effect was not enough to control him, so he continued to ask: "What dog bite, where?"

  This time, Murong Ding didn't hesitate at all and immediately replied: "It seems to be a sheepdog, in the pine forest on Guishan!" Perhaps Murong Ding was not familiar with dogs and could only roughly know that the dog raised by Davis was a sheepdog, but he did not understand what specific breed it was.

  Jiulong Fei was overjoyed when he heard this. He was shocked that the wound on Murong Ding's hand was indeed a dog bite, and it had happened in the forest where they had gone hunting that day, which meant that everything was Harriet's doing! He was delighted that the medicinal properties of the drug were taking effect on Murong Ding's body, so he didn't have to worry about him not answering his questions anymore.

  Gu Long Fei paused for a moment, then asked: "In the forest, how many people did you bring with you? Were all the people who attacked us yours? Who was the sniper hiding in the tree?" At this point, he couldn't give Murong Ding any room to turn around. The questions had to be raised first, making him simply repeat what happened at the time, without asking about his role that day, which would require more words and might even make him feel a little sober in his daze.

  Murong Ding responded calmly, "That day I brought a total of 38 people to surround Gu Longfei and his companions. The sniper on the tree was borrowed from Chongqing, unfortunately, he didn't get to play a big role before being killed by Gu Longfei!"

  It turned out that he was transferred from Chongqing, no wonder his methods were so good. He hid in the tree and killed Jinshan, Francisco and others. Later, it was still relying on Pitt and Harry's cooperation, and he himself took a risk to shoot him down from the tree. Now thinking about it, I'm still terrified!

  "How did you know that Gu Longfei and his party were going to hunt at Gui Shan? And how did you plan to ambush them?" He had been suspicious in his heart, running into Murong Ding and others was absolutely not a coincidence, who spread the news of the hunt?

  "It was Sam who told me! After I received the news, I dispatched people to ambush in the woods. The snipers launched the first attack and killed most of their men. Then I led a team to drive away the attackers. Actually, we didn't drive them away. Gu Longfei hid behind a rock, unable to see our faces. We just needed to pull down the masks on our faces to become a rescue team!"

  "Sam?" Gu Longfei heard the name and was shocked, almost shouting out loud! That day they had just entered the forest, Sam took a big step forward, everyone knew his personality was introverted and taciturn, no one paid attention to him. When he was trapped under the boulder and couldn't get free, he led Mu Rongding and others to shoot back at the enemy, at that time seeing the wound on his leg, asked about it, he said it was because he fell into a beast trap dug by the mountain people, barely escaping! At that time, filled with grief and indignation, didn't think about the unreasonable parts of the story, only now when Mu Rongding spoke up did he realize the holes in it were everywhere!

  "Why did Sam betray Gu Longfei? Are you mainly targeting Gu Longfei or Davis?" He then thought that as soon as they boarded the small train to Turtle Mountain, Davis had a stomach ache and had to withdraw from the hunt! What he wanted to figure out was who Murong Ding was preparing to ambush.

  "Sam is my man, I not only saved his life but also provided him with a large amount of funds, so naturally he listens to me. Our main attack target is Gu Longfei, that old man Davis still has some use, and for the time being, I don't want to get rid of him!"

  Gu Longfei was excited for a moment, the most critical issue is about to be revealed, and he continued to ask: "Why do you want to kill Gu Longfei? Do you have any grudges against him?"

  "Who wants to kill him? We're doing this mainly so he'll thank me for saving his life, and from now on obey me, and do a big favor for me!"

  "What's going on?"

  Murong Ding's eyebrows furrowed slightly as he heard the question, his breathing also becoming somewhat heavier, revealing that he was extremely reluctant to answer this question. Gu Longfei saw that the answer was about to come out and was overjoyed, but then he noticed Murong Ding's sudden change in expression and didn't dare continue asking about it. Although he was extremely unwilling to give up, he quickly changed the subject, fearing that if he wasn't careful, he would provoke him further, which would be a fatal mistake!

  Gu Long Fei had an idea and asked, "Was Gu Long Fei's wife and daughter, as well as Zhang Shu next door, also killed by someone you sent?" He increasingly felt that this was related to Murong Ding.

  As expected, Mu Rong Ding replied, "Yes, they were all sent by me!"

  "Li Kaisan's family was attacked too, did you send someone to do it?"

  "Yes!"

  "Did you also kill Liu Fu's wife, children and long-term workers?"

  "Yes!"

  The things that Gu Longfei had guessed were all confirmed, a surge of hot blood rushed to his forehead, he suddenly stood up, grabbed Mu Rongding's hair with both hands, and flung him to the side. He crashed into the table, making a loud "bang" sound. The bowls, plates, cups, and saucers on the table jumped up, some fell to the ground, shattering into pieces!

  "Qiu Long shouted loudly: "Why? Why? They are all women and children, why do you have to be so cruel?" His face was blood red, his eyes bulging with anger, almost popping out of their sockets."

  This mysterious and potent hallucinogen, indeed had a strong effect. Murong Ding's head was smashed into the table by Gu Longfei with great force, yet he still hadn't woken up. His forehead hit the edge of the table, splitting open a wound, dark red blood flowed out like an earthworm, his eyes remained tightly shut, and he replied: "At first, seeing Lin Qiaoyu and the others, I couldn't bear to make a move, but in order to force Gu Longfei to surrender, obey me, and not dare to disobey, I had no choice but to take action and kill them!"

  Jiulong saw that his face was covered in blood, and his face had become unspeakably ferocious and terrifying. The anger in his heart suddenly erupted, and he went into the house to fetch a knife, preparing to cut off his head to avenge his wife and daughter!

  As he raised the sharp blade in his hand, ready to behead his enemy and avenge his hatred, a voice suddenly came from outside the courtyard: "Xiao Fei, don't act rashly!"

  It was already pitch black outside, and before he and Murong Ding drank at home, they had closed the door tightly to prevent the cold wind from blowing in. When did this person enter the yard? He immediately shouted: "Who is there?" Holding the knife in his hand, against the outside of the house door, ready to defend himself.

  That person walked out of the house and gently knocked on the door a few times. In a low voice, he said: "Xiao Fei, I don't have any malicious intentions. Let me in and I'll tell you everything!"

  Jade Dragon heard the voice and felt like he had heard it somewhere before, but for a moment, he couldn't recall where. Although he didn't know who the other person was, his instincts told him to stop himself from killing Miao Yuanding at this time, so he must have known some inside information. Moreover, with full confidence in his own skills, he wasn't afraid of the newcomer launching an attack. With one hand holding a knife and the other pulling out the door bolt, he flashed aside, his eyes fixed intently on the door.

  The door was gently pushed open, and a man slowly walked in. He raised his hands high above his head as he stepped inside, indicating that he came empty-handed and unarmed. After taking a few more steps, Gu Longfei saw the man's face clearly under the light of the room. The man had dark skin and an inconspicuous scar on his cheek. Wasn't this the person who was defeated by him after exchanging blows with him before?

  Jiulong Fei saw that he was under Wang Dahai's command, looked at him with confusion and asked: "Who are you, when did you come to my house? What do you want?"

  That man smiled slightly and said: "My name is Xiao Cheng! Just now, I was ordered by Director Wang to deliver something to you. Seeing that the lights in your house were on and the outer gate was tightly closed, I didn't know what had happened inside, so I jumped over the wall and came in. Please forgive me!"

  He saw Gu Long flying with a look of astonishment on his face, and said: "I have been to your home several times, you are not at home, I don't know where you went, I am very worried about you, almost every night, I will come to your home to see if you have returned! Just now it's good that I came in time, otherwise you would have been killed by Murong Ding and made a big mistake!"

  "What? Wasn't he the one who killed my family? I avenged their death, what great mistake did I make?" He saw people constantly spying on his house from outside every day, and after coming in, they would list his faults, anger burning in his heart!
