In the small courtyard where the Blood River Sect was hiding, the aroma of meat wafted up.
During these days of blockade, the people of the Blood River Sect had never tasted meat. Obviously, when they suddenly had a piece of mutton, they naturally had to cook it carefully.
The mutton soup is gurgling and garnished with chopped green onion. The aroma of the milky white mutton soup reaches right between the mouth and nose, seeming to seduce people's greed.
I don’t know why, but a group of warriors from the Blood River Zongyuan Transformation Realm looked at this pot of mutton soup and could think of the word "heart-warming".
It was as if what they saw in front of them was not a pot of meat, but a stunning beauty.
This is not because the Blood River Sect cannot afford mutton. Although the Blood River Sect is not wealthy, it is still an evil sect that once swept the world. It still has some financial strength.
It's just that this group of people originally followed Venerable Blood Venom Zhou to develop poisonous seeds on Huangye Island. For several months, they ate only sea fish and almost vomited.
When the poisonous seed was successfully developed and Guo Jing and Yang Guo landed on the island, they could only evacuate Huangye Island in a hurry.
After landing on the shore, Venerable Blood Poison Zhou and his team rushed to Jinling City to cultivate and release poisonous seeds.
Their team... their gang didn't even have time to eat a good meal.
This Venerable Blood Venom Zhou is also a pity. He is obviously a first-class research talent and has led a top scientific research team, but he just doesn't follow the right path.
He turned a large virology research team into a large-scale poisoning criminal gang.
Just when the poisoning was successful and they were about to hold a grand celebration banquet, Jinling closed the city and all supplies were controlled. Not to mention the grand banquet, even basic life was difficult to maintain.
Now that all the hardships are over, I can finally eat meat. This process has been extremely arduous.
Venerable Xue Du Zhou picked up a piece of fat and tender mutton and stuffed it into his mouth regardless of how hot it was. The tender and tender taste scalded from the tip of his tongue to the bottom of his heart.
Cool!
…
While the Blood River Sect was eating mutton and singing songs, people from the six gates were still hard at work searching for traces of the poisoner.
Under Yang Qingyuan's arrangement, the number of people investigated has increased from 750,000 in Dongcheng to the current 15 households.
But even for fifteen households, it is not an easy matter for six doors.
The people who buy large amounts of grain on the black market are not simple people. Five of them are famous local gentry in Jinling, and seven of them are powerful gangs in Jinling.
Once one of them is moved, if the wrong one is arrested, it will definitely arouse the vigilance of the Blood River Sect's evildoers, and it will be difficult to catch them again!
Fortunately, Guo Jing and Liu Wangshu, two masters of the Dongxuan Realm, were accompanying us this time. Otherwise, it would have taken a lot of time to find out the truth of these fifteen companies!
Chen Danlin took the list in her hand, and after confirming it, crossed out another name.
"The Qi family, the Jia family, the Zhao family, the Qianfanghui, the Liangjiang Gang... these eleven families have all been investigated, and there are still four families that have not been investigated: the Sheng family, the Zong family, Dahemen, and the Tiexue Gang."
Sheng and Zong are wealthy families in Jinling. Although they are not considered a prominent family, they have lived in Jinling for thirty years.
Dahemen and the Iron Blood Gang are two medium-sized gangs in Jinling City.
As the name of the Dahe Sect suggests, they make a living on the rivers. They have several transport fleets of their own that specialize in transporting goods on the rivers for some years.
The Iron Blood Gang is a new gang that seems to be composed of a group of young people. Most of the young gangsters and street gangsters in Jinling City are members of the Iron Blood Gang.
However, with the constraints of the Jagged Gang's rules, these gangsters are easier to control, so the Jinling Mansion Office and the Jinling Liumen Branch are still allowed to develop.
Staring at the four companies recorded in her notebook, Chen Danlin wanted to determine which of them was the most suspicious.
"Captain Chen, I think the Iron Blood Gang is the most suspect among them!" Li Dan, the captor of the Six Doors, said carefully after thinking over and over again.
Chen Danlin glanced at him and said, "Captain Li, tell me what you think."
"I thought that the name of the Blood River Evil Sect must be regular. The Iron Blood Gang and the Blood River Evil Sect both have the word 'blood', so there must be a connection. Moreover, they are the shortest established among the four families. I suspect One point bigger.”
"..."
Li Dan's speculation caused everyone present to fall into an eerie silence. If you want to say that he is nonsense, there is indeed no basis for it.
But this logic seems to make some sense, but not much.
For example, Chen Danlin herself, when using a pseudonym, would either use Dan or Lin. People will have such considerations in their subconscious mind.
"Do you think this is reasoning?! Then Dahemen also brought a river from the Blood River Sect?! Why didn't you say it!" Chen Ming was the first to object to his bad friend. What kind of messy reason was this?
"If you don't tell me, I haven't thought of it before, but this sect's business also has a sect from the Blood River Sect! So all three of them are suspected..."
Just when everyone thought there was going to be a choice between three truths about a certain Japanese elementary school student detective, Chen Danlin spoke up.
"It seems that the Sheng family can also be contacted."
Everyone's eyes were focused on Chen Danlin, "Please ask Mr. Chen to clear up the confusion."
"This 'Sheng' is 'Saint', and the disciples of the Blood River Evil Sect have always called themselves the Holy Sect. This seems to be related to the Blood River Evil Sect."
So after deducing for a long time, I couldn't rule out any of them. Could it be that these four families are all secret agents of the Blood River Sect? ! This is too outrageous!
"Except for the Iron Blood Gang, these four families are a little far apart, and the remaining three are quite close together. Let's go together!"
After co-authoring the analysis for a long time, not a single one was excluded.
…
——
While the Blood River Sect was eating mutton hot pot and singing songs, suddenly the Blood Venomous Venerable Zhou of the Blood River Sect felt that something was wrong.
Therefore, mood does determine appetite to a large extent. Once there is doubt in the heart, even the plump mutton in the mouth will not taste good!
"Song Rigan, do you feel strange!?"
Song Renqian was eating with his mouth watering when he was suddenly asked a question by... the boss of his team, and he stopped.
"Sir, what's strange? This meat is very good. It's fat, tender, and really fragrant."
Song Renqian was really hungry. For a warrior in the Yuanhua realm, his thinking and logic were still limited to mutton.
"I'm not talking about the meat, I'm talking about the stuff we buy on the black market."
Venerable Blood Venom just felt a flash of inspiration flashing through his mind, "Those common people went to the black market to buy ordinary water and food, but the amount would never be as big as theirs! And those rich merchants' families would definitely buy most of them. Cattle, sheep, melons and fruits. People like us who bought large quantities of food and water are too conspicuous among these people."
Song Renqian felt that Venerable Zhou was a little overly sensitive.
"Your Majesty, this shouldn't be obvious! After all, this black market is not a formal trade. It is impossible to calculate as carefully as usual. Wouldn't it be great if the man named Yang can finally get the money?! Would he think so much?! "
Venerable Zhou only felt that his thoughts were getting clearer and clearer.
"No, you can't underestimate this person named Yang. Qinglonghui, Luowang... these people have learned from the past. No matter how much we attach importance to Yang Qingyuan, we can't overestimate! Notify him immediately and let the brothers prepare to evacuate!"
…
Just as Venerable Zhou finished speaking, a figure hurried to the door of the kitchen.
"Your Majesty, deacons, something bad has happened! A group of Zhou troops is coming towards us!"
…
——
In the east city of Jinling, a group of soldiers from the city defense army were marching forward holding torches. It was Commander Wu of the Jinling city defense army and Jinling Hucao who was also responsible for collecting medicinal materials.
"Commander Wu, it's already late now, and we have already purchased a lot of medicinal materials. If not, we can buy the rest tomorrow!" Jinling Hucao looked at the weather and wanted to go home.
No one wants to work overtime!
But Commander Wu didn't think so, "Xie Hucao, that's not what happened. We have collected most of the medicinal materials in Dongcheng. If we work harder, we can remove all the remaining medicine shops in Dongcheng." It’s done, so we don’t have to come to Dongcheng tomorrow and can go to the remaining places to collect medicinal materials!”
Although Jinling Hucao was the nominal person in charge of collecting the medicinal materials, the success of the collection of medicinal materials was still due to Commander Wu and his Jinling city defense army.
At the beginning, there were several drug store owners who wanted to continue to increase prices on the price Xue Fuyin had set by relying on their connections.
As a result, Commander Wu bargained with these bosses without saying a word!
This Commander Wu got a good deal! Especially the thick-backed Yanling knife on his waist, it was really cutting!
"Swiss, swipe, swipe" seems to have reduced the price in just a few rounds, of course with the fingers of a tough boss mixed in.
Commander Wu didn't have the consciousness to commit any crime at all. In his words, if it hadn't been for the governor's order not to kill anyone, his temper, Old Wu, would have killed these evil-hearted people who wanted to enrich the country. You profiteer, take him out and chop him down!
Although Hucao didn't want to work overtime, he couldn't resist the enthusiasm of his subordinates, so he had no choice but to follow the others towards the remaining medicine shop in the east of the city.
Since everyone had not thought about doing it at this time, they did not light torches and moved forward in darkness.
This situation can easily cause other people to misunderstand.
…
——
"You mean, a large group of soldiers and horses are coming in our direction!?"
Venerable Blood Poison Zhou, although there was no expression on his face, he was horrified in his heart!
"It's already dark now, but when the large group of people came toward me, they didn't light the torches. It was obviously to hide their whereabouts! Your Majesty, let's retreat quickly! It's too late if it's later!"
Venerable Zhou sighed in his heart when he heard this. Yang Qingyuan is indeed the wisest man in the world. He came so quickly!
Just when he thought that he used the black market to determine their location, the soldiers and horses of the Jinling City Defense Army had already arrived!
"Send the order and tell the remaining three disciples to evacuate immediately. They must have discovered something abnormal, and they don't care about hiding it now. They can leave one by one! Hurry!"
Hearing this, Song Renqian swallowed the last piece of mutton and said, "Sir, I will protect you from leaving!"
This was a cup of tea, and Song Renqian gathered eight masters of the Yuan Hua Realm. Venerable Blood Venom is one of the eight great lords of the Blood River Sect, but he is a special being among them. Compared to most of the lords of the Dongxuan Realm, he is simply "weak" and unable to take care of himself.
The Yuan Hua realm can only be regarded as the backbone force in the arena, and only those who have entered the Dongxuan can be qualified to be called high-level combat forces.
Therefore, the Blood Poison Venerable in the Yuan Hua Realm appears to be extremely weak. He is protected by not only the eight Yuan Hua Realm members, but also the master protectors of the Blood River Evil Sect.
After preparing everything, the people of the Blood River Sect immediately fled in all directions. In this situation, fleeing in all directions created an opportunity for the core figure, Venerable Zhou, to escape.
…
Chen Danlin and others were prepared to explore the remaining four houses, but they just waited on the periphery and did not dare to approach.
"It's already getting late. With our skills, it's easy to alert the enemy. We'd better wait for news about Guo Daxia and Liu Nuxia!"
This principle is correct. Once the information is found out, then annihilate it in one fell swoop.
"Shan, it should be like this, otherwise we can't wait for the people of the Blood River Sect to throw themselves into the net!"
Chen Danlin had just finished saying this when she saw people from Dahemen, Shengjia Commercial House, and Zongjia Commercial House suddenly breaking the ban, and they all had martial arts skills.
"..."
This situation made everyone stunned, but no matter what, arrest the person first!
"superior!"
Chen Danlin drew out the sword from her waist, while Chen Ming drew out the double swords from his back. Li Dang roared out a slingshot, and all his elite agents also swarmed forward.
Everyone in the Blood River Sect who escaped from the darkness was shocked when they saw this.
"Sure enough, Zhou Ting's minions have already laid an ambush. Let's break out together and kill!"
This statement made all the policemen in the six gates confused. What kind of ambush and what kind of siege? !
But now is not the time to think. It is real to catch talents now. The two teams collided immediately.
Venerable Zhou listened to the sudden killing sounds outside and said with an ugly face, "I have told you before that Yang Qingyuan is treacherous and cunning. Sure enough, he has already set up an ambush and is waiting for us!"
…
"Ah chirp, ah chirp!" In the Jinling Mansion Yamen, Yang Qingyuan, who was discussing with Sun Shichang on how to detoxify, suddenly sneezed several times in a row.
"This Jinbo Xunhua is really powerful. My physique should be invulnerable to cold and heat, but now I have symptoms of wind and cold."
Sun Shichang retracted his finger and shook his head, "The poison in your body seems to be a living thing, which is really the only thing I have seen in my life. The epidemic poison in Jinling City now makes it impossible for me to calm down and detoxify you, but fortunately, you are a good boy. Here, the inner strength is also mysterious, and you can’t die for the time being! I will deal with you again after the epidemic poison is dealt with!"
"..."
——
"Sir, please leave with me!"
Song Renqian was about to rush out while protecting the Blood Venom Venerable. Just as everyone was about to rush towards the alley, a woman was already blocking their way.
The person who came here is as handsome as an orchid, gentle and gentle, elegant and beautiful, with a majestic demeanor in the appearance of ice and snow, and the green clothes add a certain agility.
"How can I be considered half a master? How can I let my guests leave so easily!?"
After finishing speaking, a seven-inch long dagger appeared in the woman's hand.
In an instant, the dagger suddenly burst into glory and turned into a three-foot sword light. The goose-yellow sword light made her jade face even more stunning.
"Emei, Zhou Zhiruo, please bow down!"
