Jiang Changkong got up early in the morning.
After washing, I ate something simple, and then concentrated on practicing my sword in the yard.
The next thing to deal with is not just Guan Yubiao, but the entire Guan family.
After capturing Guan Yubiao, the Guan family will definitely not give up, and Guan Yulong will definitely rescue him.
What will be needed then is not only wisdom, but also strength.
Only with strong strength can we not be afraid of any wind and rain.
What is said in the "Sword Code", "Be fearless and move forward indomitably" is not something you just say with your mouth.
Behind it is powerful force!
The task of finding evidence of Guan Yubiao's crimes was entirely handed over to Zhang Hu, Zhao Long and Wang Dazhuang.
Since the death of Widow Wang, Wang Dazhuang can no longer see a smile on his face. He has a gloomy face all day long and his complexion is not very good.
Obviously, Widow Wang's death hit him hard.
However, he didn't slack off at work, but worked even harder. I wonder if it was because he learned that Widow Wang's death was indirectly related to Guan Yubiao.
It is not difficult to collect evidence of Guan Yubiao's crime, it can even be said to be very easy.
The entire Nanping Town is monopolized by the Guan family, and almost all industries are occupied by Guan Yubiao. You can find out with just a little visit.
The difficulty is how to obtain evidence of guilt related to Guan Yubiao and the cult.
This is also the key investigation of Zhang Hu and the others, and this kind of investigation cannot be carried out in a big way and can only be investigated secretly.
The days passed.
Jiang Changkong did not rush Zhang Hu and the others. He stayed at the patrol room door and concentrated on practicing his sword.
At this time, Ji Rong had been attacking the fourth level of martial arts in the basement of a private house in Nanping Town.
The fourth level of martial arts is the realm of divine treasures, and one must use tyrannical energy and blood to open up the five great divine treasures.
They are: the divine treasure of the heart, the divine treasure of the liver, the divine treasure of the spleen, the divine treasure of the lungs, and the divine treasure of the kidneys.
These five sacred treasures are a watershed in the early stages of martial arts. Many people stop moving forward because it is difficult to open up this sacred realm.
If there is insufficient Qi and blood, not only will it be impossible to open up, but it may even cause serious injuries.
It will be even more difficult to attack the fourth level of martial arts in the future.
This is why Ji Rong risked his life and betrayed his brother to join the Blood God Cult, just to obtain the Blood God Pill.
The Guan family gave him three hundred years of ginseng, which gave him more confidence in attacking the Shenzang Realm.
The fourth level of martial arts is very difficult for most warriors, but for Jiang Changkong, it is just a matter of how many times he swings the sword, and there is no bottleneck or difficulty at all.
Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.
In the courtyard, Jiang Changkong was swinging his sword carefully.
The qi and blood in the body are circulating rapidly, and more and more are gathering.
The blood tempered by the endless sword energy is boiling.
Jiang Changkong was overjoyed.
He knew that this was approaching a critical point.
Once he breaks through, he will step into the fourth level of martial arts.
Finally, as he swung his sword, the energy and blood in his body suddenly gathered together and continued to rotate, like a big bloody dragon.
Immediately, this great dragon of energy and blood circulated rapidly through the body, rushing toward the heart.
boom!
The divine treasure of the heart is opened!
Tyrannical power surged throughout his body.
Fourth level martial arts!
As his cultivation level broke through, his sword intention also successfully broke through to the third level.
Jiang Changkong could clearly feel that his strength had improved explosively.
Compared with the third level of martial arts, it is not at the same level at all.
The strength is directly defeated.
I was overjoyed.
The improvement in strength not only brings him more security, but also brings more confidence.
He felt that with his current comprehensive strength, it would not be a problem to defeat ordinary fourth-level martial arts in the middle and late stages, and he could even fight against ordinary fifth-level martial arts.
This is not only because his sword essence is powerful, but also because he has mastered the third level of sword intent.
Sword skills are easy to practice, but not everyone can understand the meaning of the sword.
But what made him a little confused was that this time, Jianxin Tongming did not improve with the breakthrough in cultivation.
"Could it be that the clarity of the sword's heart cannot be improved because certain conditions have not been met?"
As for what the conditions were, Jiang Changkong didn't know.
The transparency of the sword's heart itself does not belong to the realm of cultivation and cannot be improved by swinging the sword.
It seems to be related to soul power, but also to will, and even to thought.
In short, this is a mysterious and mysterious thing.
Jiang Changkong couldn't figure it out, and he didn't hesitate.
Let everything take its course.
If you break through to the fourth level of martial arts, you can go to the Demon Suppression Division to be certified as a Bronze Martial Guard.
But Jiang Changkong was not in a hurry.
Anyway, it is only a matter of time to become a Tongwuwei. When things are settled here, it will not be too late to go to Qinghe County Town Demon Division for certification.
Next, he continued to practice and improve his realm.
After the Divine Treasure of the Heart is opened, there are still four major Divine Treasures to be opened.
While Jiang Changkong was concentrating on practicing his sword, Zhang Hu finally found evidence that Guan Yubiao had cooperated with the cult.
Boom, boom, boom!
There was a knock on the door from outside.
Jiang Changkong, who was practicing his sword, sheathed his sword and waved his hand, releasing a burst of sword intent and opening the courtyard door.
Zhang Hu hurriedly walked in.
"grown ups……"
But as soon as the words came out, Zhang Hu's expression changed.
At this time, Jiang Changkong gave him a strong sense of oppression. His whole body was like a sharp sword, with its sharp edges exposed. He felt that there were countless swords pressing against his skin.
All the hairs on my body stood up.
This aura is even more powerful than when he was at the third level of martial arts before.
Could it be that...Jiang Changkong made another breakthrough?
Thinking of this, Zhang Hu suddenly felt a little dry.
Jiang Changkong had just been practicing and had not restrained his aura in time. When he saw Zhang Hu staring with surprise, he knew that his aura had leaked too much.
Immediately after condensing his breath, Zhang Hu suddenly felt that the swords had disappeared, and his whole body felt much more relaxed.
"Sir, have you made a breakthrough?"
Zhang Hu cupped his fists and used the honorific.
Jiang Changkong smiled and said, "Well, we just made a breakthrough."
There is no need to hide it from Zhang Hu.
The stronger he is, the harder Zhang Hu's waist will be, and he will not be timid when doing things for him.
Zhang Hu gasped.
hiss--
Sure enough, a breakthrough!
This means that Jiang Changkong is now at the fourth level of martial arts! ! !
What kind of evildoer's cultivation speed is this?
While shocked, he also became excited as Jiang Changkong expected.
If Jiang Changkong's breakthrough to the third level of martial arts still made him a little jealous, he felt that Jiang Changkong's success only depended on Jiang Bielie's pension.
But when Jiang Changkong broke through to the fourth level of martial arts, his jealousy immediately disappeared.
Some are just in awe and excitement.
Awe is easy to understand. It is the awe of genius and the strong.
But he was excited because Jiang Changkong was his immediate boss and his protective umbrella.
The stronger the leader is, the stronger his backbone is and the more confidence he has in speaking.
Zhang Hu took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement, clasped his fists and said, "Sir, I found evidence that Guan Yubiao joined the cult."
"Oh?" Jiang Changkong's expression suddenly became excited, "What is the evidence? Where is it?"
"Sir, don't worry, please listen to me slowly."
Zhang Hu said.
"It's like this. After a period of investigation, I found that Guan Yubiao often hangs out in Honghua Building."
"The people in Honghua Building are very complicated, but most of the people hanging out there are rich people. People like us who are short of money basically won't go to such a place...well, we can't afford to go either."
"After investigation by Zhao Long, Dazhuang and I, we found that one of them was acting suspiciously. This person is not from Nanping Town, but he comes here every half month.
"And every time I enter Honghua Building, I will meet Guan Yubiao."
"When they meet, no one is allowed to come near, not even the maid pouring water."
"This person came again a few days ago, but left the next day. This person is very powerful, and neither Zhao Long nor I can follow him, and he was quickly dumped without a trace."
"So we can only continue to investigate secretly from within the Guan family."
"The Emperor has paid off. His subordinates learned through a young man from the Guan family that he accidentally discovered a sculpture of the Blood God in Guan Yubiao's secret room."
Blood God Sculpture! ! !
Jiang Changkong's eyes suddenly brightened.
If this is true, then Guan Yubiao is dead.
The laws of Dachu State clearly stipulate that anyone who worships a cult will be killed.
Although for some reasons, confiscation of homes and genocide and implicating three clans were abolished, the person involved must definitely be beheaded. There is no mercy in this.
"sure?"
Jiang Changkong asked.
"I helped the Guan family's young man once, so I'm kind of grateful. I guess there won't be much of a problem."
Zhang Hu said.
He wasn't entirely sure, after all, he hadn't seen it with his own eyes.
So we can only make a rough judgment.
Jiang Changkong nodded, "Where are the other evidences?"
Zhang Hu took out a piece of paper from his arms.
Jiang Changkong took it and unfolded it.
"In the 13th year of Dachu Huiwu, Guan Yubiao occupied 160 acres of fertile land from 18 farmers. He also occupied the daughter of the Xu family for three years. When he got tired of playing with her, he sold her to a brothel."
"In the 16th year of Dachu Huiwu, Guan Yubiao forcibly purchased six street shops of the Zhou family at a very low price of 10% of the market price. The head of the Zhou family was unwilling and was beaten severely. He died suddenly at home the next day."
"In the same year, I happened to meet the wife of businessman Li Jinnan. I immediately took advantage of her and occupied her. I even occupied her young daughter frantically for five years."
"During this period, Li Jinnan was required to pay 50 taels of silver every month, otherwise he would forcibly acquire his shop. Li Jinnan swallowed his anger, which eventually led to tragedy..."
…
"In the past few years, Guan Yubiao used force to occupy almost all the shops in Nanping Town and controlled all aspects of food, clothing, housing, transportation and medical care."
"During this period, medicinal materials from collectors were often forcibly purchased at less than 10% of the market price. Those who resisted disappeared soon after, or drowned in the river, or had their limbs chopped off and thrown into the mountains to be eaten by wild beasts."
Jiang Changkong's eyes showed murderous intent and he put away the evidence.
Hanging the green steel sword on his waist, he said to Zhang Hu: "Let's arrest him!"
