Hao Yun came to Zhuque City, the seat of the Southern Branch of the Weapon Masters Association, through the teleportation array. Although South Dou City and Suzaku City are both in the south of Lingdu Continent, they are one to the east and one to the west, so they are far away from each other. In comparison, they still pass through The teleportation array will be faster.
Hao Yun is on a public mission this time, and all expenses can be overdrawn through his identity card. Otherwise, the teleportation tickets for two cities alone would be enough for Hao Yun.
Suzaku City is much more prosperous than South Dou City. It is also a traditional trading city in the southwest of Lingdu Continent. This is why the Artifact Masters Federation established a branch here. That small family, the Feng Family, is also a small family engaged in trading in Suzaku City. They mainly sell various spiritual weapons, and most of their customers are cultivators below the Golden Core stage. The patriarch of the Feng family is also the only cultivator in the family who has reached the early stage of infant transformation. He is well-known in the local area. The Feng family business he founded is very popular among the lower-level cultivators!
The Feng family's source of spiritual weapons depends entirely on the Southern Branch of the Weapon Masters Association. The Feng family usually provides the materials and asks the weapon masters of the Southern branch to create them. The finished products are then sold by the Feng Family Trading Company. The relationship between the two families has always been very good. In addition, the head of the Feng family is a good person and rarely has disputes. They have been living happily for decades.
The problem arose some time ago. As before, the Feng family provided a batch of materials and asked the Southern Branch to build it. One of the weapon masters named Lao Yi accidentally found a piece of mithril among the materials. This piece of mithril was used by others. Wrapped in minerals, it is treated as ordinary refined iron ore. As a result, the weapon master secretly cheated, but later, for some reason, the head of the Feng family found out. Not only did he ask the weapon master to hand over the mithril, but he also blackmailed him for a large sum of money. So the weapon master took a desperate risk and killed the clan leader. The weapon master's behavior will indeed have a bad impact on the entire branch. In order to kill people and silence them, Di Qing, the president of the Southern Branch, went out of his way to kill the entire Feng family. Now Di Qing and Lao Yi have been imprisoned by the inspectors, awaiting trial.
This is the whole story. Now the Artillery Masters Federation has raised objections, believing that the inspection branch of Suzaku City was colluding with the local forces and conducted inhumane interrogations on Di Qing and Lao Yi, forcing them to surrender. Therefore, Hao Yun's purpose this time is to investigate whether the inspection department of Suzaku City was bending the law for personal gain. Who was responsible for the genocide of the Feng family?
Hao Yun was thinking along the way that he used to think that Su Yujin could become a very good detective, but he never expected that this idea would eventually come true for him. But thinking that I can only go back to the past three days ago, this matter has been so long ago that I no longer have the ability to see the truth.
Hao Yun came to the commercial street of Zhuque City and found that the Fengjia Trading Company was still closed. After asking around, he found out that the Fengjia family was not located in the city. They all lived in a manor in the western suburbs. Hao Yun hurried to the Feng family's manor and found that the entire manor was guarded by a formation. He could not enter at all, and there were patrols and surveillance around. Hao Yun originally planned to conduct the investigation quietly alone, but found that he could not even enter the crime scene.
Hao Yun decided to go to the Southern Branch, but he was rejected. The front desk of the Southern Branch asked him who he was going to find. He was vague for a long time and didn't say who was coming. There was nothing he could do about it. The two people whose names he knew were both in the prison, and he didn't recognize the others.
Hao Yun came out of the Southern Branch and came to the streets of Zhuque City. He really felt what it meant to have six gods and no masters. Such a big city didn't know how to start? Finally, he mustered up the courage and went straight to the point. Since there was no way around the patrol branch, why not openly express his intention? If he didn't believe these patrols, would he dare to kill him?
Hao Yun raised his legs and was about to leave when he felt someone peeping above his head. When he looked up, he saw it was a water mirror, and someone was using the Mirror Technique to monitor him. Hao Yun took out his octagonal ID card, shook it, and waited where he was. Not long after, an inspector arrived.
"I'm really sorry. I didn't know that the inspector came to Suzaku City. I'm here to greet you on behalf of my family. I'm here to guide you. My family is waiting for you." The inspector looked very young and very polite.
Hao Yun flew with the patrol officer and found that he was not going to the patrol branch of Suzaku City, but apparently he was heading to the prosperous area of Suzaku City. Hao Yun thought to himself, it couldn't be just for eating. Could it be that the spirit world is also doing this?
But this time Hao Yun miscalculated. The place they came to was just a club, which only provided spiritual tea and various drinks, but no food. The clubhouse is simply decorated, but all the furnishings are carefully designed to give people a unique flavor. The maids responsible for serving tea and pouring water in the club have undergone strict training and are all top-notch in terms of appearance and manners. However, Hao Yun discovered that these maids were not cultivators.
After the person who led the inspection arrived at the place, he said goodbye to Hao Yun and turned around. There was only Hao Yun in the room and no one else. After a while, there was a knock on the door. Before Hao Yun could answer, the door opened and two people walked in side by side.
Hao Yun took a closer look and saw that they were all middle-aged men, wearing patrol uniforms. They were slightly different in size, had a burly build, and had Chinese-character faces and beards. They looked very similar. Hao Yun thought to himself that these two people should be brothers.
"I don't know that when the supervisor comes here, it is disrespectful to welcome him from afar, disrespectful and disrespectful!" One of the taller middle-aged men spoke, and both of them bowed their hands to Hao Yun.
Hao Yun hurriedly stood up and said in return: "Where are you? I didn't notify you when I came here. I was really rude, my little brother. My name is Hao Yun, who are you two?"
"It turns out to be Brother Hao. I am Dong Shi, the director of the Suzaku City Inspection Branch. This is my brother Dong Shi, who is also the deputy director of the inspection branch. I have heard for a long time that your inspection brigade will send someone here. I didn't expect that today Here we are." Dong Shi, who was tall, was indeed very sensible and immediately changed his title to appear very affectionate.
After some conversation, Hao Yun finally understood that his efforts to quietly enter the city were in vain. All matters submitted to the Supervision Brigade are controversial matters. All relevant forces or units must be notified. That is why the murder scene is protected by formations. This is also to ensure that the Supervision Brigade sends people to investigate. The scene was not damaged. In other words, Hao Yun's coming to investigate was not a secret matter, and it would be more appropriate to do it openly.
Hao Yun was also ashamed. Before he came, he spent two days reading the files, and then he understood why Senior Brother Fang said that this matter was a relatively simple task in comparison. Other tasks can be said to have reached the sky, and they are facing the battle between the big families in the spiritual world. This is completely different from the annihilation of a small family. But the file did not tell him how to handle it. The file only contained the results and did not include the investigation process. However, Hao Yun also understood that due to the special status of the Supervision Brigade, on the surface, everyone will be polite and no one will deliberately seek trouble. Otherwise, the Supervision Brigade has the right to conduct on-site law enforcement. In other words, the Supervision Brigade is completely free to Anyone who deliberately seeks trouble will be killed on the spot, as long as you have the ability. However, the supervisory brigade cannot kill people indiscriminately. If the other party still refuses to let go after three warnings, it can carry out the killing operation. Therefore, the supervisory brigade must have witnesses when enforcing the law, otherwise it is easy to be criticized.
As far as Hao Yun is concerned, he doesn't want to show off at all. Let's not talk about whether he has the strength. Besides, the supervision brigade is not a law enforcement department. As long as he can find evidence, the rest is a matter for the law enforcement brigade of the inspection agency.
Hao Yun was originally worried that he came here to investigate the Suzaku City Inspection Branch and was afraid that they would have any opinions. Unexpectedly, the two Minister Dongs were not worried about this in their words and deeds. According to their own words, when the patrol handles various cases, unless the evidence is conclusive, they will basically have objections, and they are very used to it. It's just that this time the suspect is Di Qing, the president of the Southern Branch of the Weapon Masters Federation. Someone wanted to protect him, so he was brought to the Supervision Brigade. Otherwise, this matter would have been dealt with long ago.
During the conversation, Dong Shi said disdainfully: "Di Qing is not a good guy! He has long been interested in the golden elixir of the Feng family boss, and he is probably using this to give the Feng family a lot of trouble."
Hao Yun was very surprised and asked, is there anything special about the golden elixir of the Feng family boss? The two Minister Dongs looked a little ugly. Seeing Hao Yun's expression, they believed that Hao Yun really didn't know. Dong Shi, the younger brother, swallowed his saliva and whispered: "It is said that Di Qing has a concubine who has been stuck in the late stage of foundation building and learned techniques similar to those of the Feng family."
Hao Yun was confused when he heard this. Why is there another concubine? What does this have to do with the Feng family’s golden elixir? The two Dong brothers only spoke half of the conversation, and then changed the subject and asked Hao Yun something. Hao Yun also told the truth that he had just graduated from the academy affiliated with the Cultivation Research Institute and was assigned to the supervision brigade.
The two brothers of the Dong family were immediately in awe. Although they were far away from Lingdu City, they had heard about this Cultivation Technique Institute for a long time. It was said that the students in the affiliated academy of the Cultivation Technique Institute were all geniuses. They never expected that they would see a real person. . Hao Yun, who was just over 20 years old and had already reached the stage of infant transformation, was astonished. You must know that the two brothers of the Dong family are already over 160 years old and have just reached the late stage of infant transformation. In their family, they are already geniuses.
With the deliberate flattery from the two brothers of the Dong family, the three of them mingled with each other. Although they were just enjoying tea and drinking, the atmosphere was very harmonious. Moreover, Hao Yun discovered that the tea and wine here were extraordinary, with very good texture and taste. The key was that they played a very good role in his practice. Hao Yun found that the fit between his physical body and the Five Elements villain in his Dantian had improved to a certain extent. Although the amplitude was small, it was a real improvement.
Hao Yun asked where the tea and wine in this club were produced? He was prepared to buy some if given the chance. The Dong brothers laughed loudly and said while laughing: "Brother Hao, the tea and wine here can only be made by the owner of this family. Unless you dine in, you are absolutely not allowed to take them away, let alone buy the finished products to take back. . For us, only this kind of place is suitable for us cultivators in the infant stage. Are Brother Hao satisfied with this place?"
Hao Yun nodded repeatedly. This place is much better than eating. Cultivators should still focus on cultivation. All activities that do not deepen their cultivation are a waste of time and life.
