Early the next morning, Zhang Hu, Zhao Long and Wang Dazhuang came.
However, as soon as they arrived at the patrol room, a police officer told them what happened last night, and the three of them were shocked.
Last night, a master thief boldly attacked the police station! This is great!
The key is that if the three of them are not here, that would be a dereliction of duty!
The three of them quickly came to the backyard and saw that Jiang Changkong had gotten up and was practicing swordplay. Zhang Hu quickly clasped his fists and said, "Sir, my subordinate was practicing at home last night and failed to protect you here in time. Please forgive me."
Zhao Long and Wang Dazhuang looked at each other, and Zhao Long said calmly: "Last night, after my subordinate and Dazhuang patrolled, I drank a little too much at Fenghua Building with some martial arts friends. I fell asleep downstairs, please forgive me."
"This subordinate has neglected his duties, please forgive me." Wang Dazhuang also said with clasped fists.
Jiang Changkong smiled and said: "It's useless for you to come. The gangsters are very strong and have a large number of people. Even I am not their opponent. Fortunately, the Tongtian Guards are here and I killed them."
Bronze Heavenly Guard... adults!
All three of them were moved.
In other words, there was more than one Lord Tongtianwei here last night!
It turns out that the Demon Suppression Division had already made arrangements.
The three of them were shocked but also felt happy at the same time.
Not only was he glad that he didn't come, but he was also glad that the Tongtian Guards were there, otherwise Mr. Jiang would have been in danger.
The three of them did not ask whether these Tongtianwei adults were still in the patrol room. The affairs of these adults were not something that their subordinates who did not even have a staff could inquire about.
"Sir, if you have noble people to help you, this is a lucky star!"
Zhang Hu and the others clasped their fists and said with flattering expressions.
Someone help me?
Jiang Changkong smiled slightly.
All in all, Wei Fuguang was considered his nobleman. From the time he entered Qinghe County to collect Jiangbie's pension, to today when he defeated Guan Yulong, he had helped him several times.
In addition, 'Second Uncle' Jiang Biejie is also considered one. After his death, not only will he be given a pension, but he will also be given a 'recommendation' quota.
But the noble person last night was no one else, but himself.
He killed nine people by himself, wiping out all the Emerald Ridge elites.
Of course, he would not say this to the three of them.
"You hung the nine corpses of the villains at the south gate for public display, and sent people to guard them to scare Xiaoxiao!"
"Yes, sir."
Zhang Hu and the others left with fists in their hands.
----------------------------------
----------------------------------
The sun has risen.
More and more people gathered at the south gate entering the town.
There are those who come to the town from the countryside, and there are also merchants who come to Nanping Town from other places, but most of them are from Nanping Town itself.
Everyone gathered at the south gate, looking at the notice, pointing and talking.
Some of them had already obtained "inside information": Mr. Tong Tianwei was in charge of the patrol room, which prevented these thieves from succeeding.
Some of the Guan family's informants quickly disappeared among the crowd.
----------------------------------
----------------------------------
Guanfu.
Guan Shuntong's face was ashen, and his originally smooth beard was now a mess.
The table next to him had been smashed by him and scattered on the ground. He didn't know how many teacups he had smashed, and there were pieces of porcelain on the ground.
"A bunch of useless things!"
"Nine masters didn't kill a little black warrior!"
Guan Shuntong's lungs were about to explode.
He originally expected Lu Lin and others to vent their anger on him and avenge his son, but unexpectedly, after waiting all night, the result was that the bodies of nine people were hung on the south gate and exposed in public!
"They're all trash!"
"Death is not a pity!"
Xiang Jiu clasped his fists at the side and said, "Sir, please calm down. I heard that there are Bronze Heavenly Guards in charge, and there are more than one. I'm afraid Lu Lin and the others don't know the details of the patrol house at all, and they were completely annihilated by carelessness."
"Didn't they check out the spots during the day?" Guan Shuntong was still furious, "Are they all blind?"
"A group of gangsters like this dare to say that they have perfect hands and eyes in Jade Ridge and have never been defeated. It's like God is blind!"
"If our Guan family hadn't wiped their butts from behind, they would have died hundreds of times!"
"These useless things...die well!!!"
As he said that, he reached out to grab a teacup, but it was empty.
"Where's the teacup?!!"
Guan Shuntong roared.
Xiang Jiu quickly took a tea cup from the cabinet next to him.
Guan Shuntong snatched it away and threw it to the ground.
Wow!
A piece of debris.
Then he reached for it again, and Xiang Jiu had to hand him the teacups on the cabinet one by one.
Guan Shuntong slammed each tea cup to the ground.
It wasn't until all the tea cups were thrown that Guan Shuntong, who was incompetent and furious, stopped.
"Master, will we still have to..."
Xiang Jiu made a motion of cutting his throat.
Guan Shuntong let out a long breath, his eyes gloomy.
"Wait a minute. It's not clear yet whether the Tongtianwei is still in the patrol room."
"Whether it is or not, let's not alert the enemy for the time being. Let's wait for a while first."
"I don't believe it. Tong Tianwei can stay in the patrol room and never leave. They can't protect Jiang Changkong for a lifetime!"
Having said this, he glanced in the direction of the main hall, his eyes full of sadness.
"My son..."
Originally, he wanted to use Jiang Changkong's head as a memorial to his son, but now he had to change his mind.
There are Bronze Heavenly Guards here, and according to the news, there are more than one. It is obvious that the Demon Suppression Division has made preparations.
They didn't quarrel with the Guan family. They just came to block the attack and killed Lu Lin and others who attacked Jiang Changkong without asking the Guan family for their crimes. The Zhenmo Division had already given the Guan family face.
Therefore, it is impossible to kill Jiang Changkong now.
It is not appropriate to fall out with those people from the Demon Suppression Division in Qinghe County at the moment, at least not openly.
Guan Shuntong knew very well that he had to settle for the next best thing now.
This revenge must be avenged, not only because his son died, but also because of the Guan family's face.
If he remains indifferent even after his son dies, then it is very likely that no one will dare to do anything to the Guan family in the future.
Therefore, Jiang Changkong still has to kill, but not now.
As for the consequences of killing Jiang Changkong, Guan Shuntong didn't care at all.
The role of the Guan family is not as simple as it seems. At worst, they will lose some money after killing Jiang Changkong.
As for who the life compensation money was given to, it didn't matter. The key was that the Guan family had taken revenge and established its authority. No one would dare to attack the Guan family easily in the future. That was enough.
Guan Shuntong's thoughts were beautiful and practical, but he didn't know that the Guan family had no chance to lose money.
"Let's wait until my son's first seven years to discuss this matter."
Guan Shuntong said with a dull sigh.
"Withdraw all the spies around the patrol room."
"Yes, sir."
Xiang Jiu responded.
----------------------------------
Patrol room.
After Jiang Changkong finished practicing his sword, he changed his clothes and left Nanping Town on horseback without telling anyone.
The direction he headed was Qinghe County.
But after riding for a while, no one was following him, so he turned around and headed towards Emerald Ridge.
Lu Lin and others were killed by him, and the banditry in Jade Ridge was finally solved.
But the gangster dens are still there, so the banditry problem is not completely solved.
He went to Jade Ridge to prepare for all the banditry. More importantly, the silver he found from the nine Lu Lin people was too little, and a large amount of money should still be in Jade Ridge.
The most important thing for a cultivator is "the land of a wealthy partner."
'Cai' refers to money and resources; 'Late' refers to like-minded Taoist couples who communicate with each other; 'Fa' refers to skills; 'Di' refers to Feng Shui treasure land.
All of these are indispensable for those who cultivate immortality.
And these points are also applicable to warriors.
The most important of these is 'money'.
Without money, it is difficult to practice, just like the Zhuang Body Powder that Jiang Changkong bought before. Without money, it is impossible to improve the physical body, and it is impossible to improve so quickly.
Zhang Hu and others also stagnated in their cultivation because they had no money to practice.
This shows the importance of money.
After killing the nine people from Lu Lin, Jiang Changkong had no reason to give away a large amount of Jade Ridge's money to others.
Therefore, he wanted to capture Emerald Ridge first before anyone else could attack Emerald Ridge.
drive! drive! drive!
Along the way, Jiang Changkong galloped straight towards Emerald Ridge.
More than an hour later, a green and dangerous mountain was in sight.
It is the famous Emerald Ridge.
Jiang Changkong rode his horse to the front of the mountain.
A narrow passage passes between the two peaks.
This is the first line of sky that is famous in the two counties. The gangsters from Emerald Ridge guard here, collecting passing money, and making a lot of money every year.
But what surprised Jiang Changkong was that there was no one on duty here.
Using 'Sword Heart Transparency', he looked around and saw black air rising in one direction of the mountain. Jiang Changkong's eyes lit up.
If that's correct, that should be the lair of the Emerald Ridge gangsters.
The mountains here are steep, easy to defend but difficult to attack, and it is difficult for horses to climb up the mountain.
Jiang Changkong found a place to tie his horse and went there alone.
The strength of the fourth-level martial arts allows him to move forward quickly in steep mountainous areas as if on flat ground.
Not long after, we arrived at our destination.
The place is very private.
After passing through the dense woods, we saw rows of vegetable fields in a mountain valley. From a distance, we saw a green patch of green, and we could see that various vegetables were growing well.
There are some winding passages on the peaks on both sides.
In some places, plank roads have been built to connect passages at all levels.
There are many holes on the sides of some passages. I think these are the homes of the gangsters.
But what surprised Jiang Changkong was that there was no one here.
Not even a sound.
Not even the chirping of birds or the chirping of insects.
The silence was overwhelming and eerie.
Something's wrong!
Something is very wrong!
Jiang Changkong narrowed his eyes slightly.
The so-called skilled man is bold. With his current strength, safety in this place should be no problem.
More importantly, under the cover of his sword intention, he did not feel that there was any fatal danger to him.
Jiang Changkong immediately entered the mountain col.
Soon, he saw a series of large footprints at the foot of the mountain col.
It looks like a feline footprint.
Tiger?
It looks like it should be.
Tiger, also known as tiger.
However, the tiger's footprints are too big!
Jiang Changkong's pupils shrank slightly.
The footprints looked like they were fifty centimeters long!
The span of the footprints is two meters.
How big of a tiger is this?
Jiang Changkong was shocked.
He seemed to see a huge tiger two to three meters high and four to five meters long looking down at him.
This tiger...can't he become a spirit?
Judging from the freshness of the footprints, it must have been more than a day ago.
In other words, the giant tiger came yesterday.
Considering the fact that tigers come out at night and hide during the day, it can be said that the giant tiger came before daytime yesterday.
If we had been here last night, the people here would probably be in bad luck.
Jiang Changkong raised his eyes and looked around, chose a path on the left to go to the mountainside passage, quickly went up, and soon reached the passage.
Walking along the passage, you soon saw a cave.
After entering, I found that the cave was very large. It was fully equipped with stoves, furniture, and even a bathroom.
It was very clean inside, and it was obvious that someone had been living there for a long time.
But there was no one there, and there were no traces of fighting or blood.
Leave this cave and head to the next cave.
There was still no one in the next cave, and there were still no signs of fighting or blood.
Walking down the passage, he found that every cave was deserted.
Popular, but no one, and no signs of fighting or blood...Don't tigers eat people?
If tigers don't eat people, where have all the people here gone?
Jiang Changkong was secretly surprised.
When he came to a larger cave along the passage, he was stunned by the sight in front of him.
This cave is huge, as if the entire mountain has been hollowed out.
And in this cave, rows of corpses were lying neatly on the ground, men, women, old and young, with peaceful postures.
But every corpse is mummified.
It was densely packed with hundreds of people.
