Wang Zengfu must be killed before his transformation is successful.
There is no second way to go.
Don't take any chances.
What's more.
Wang Zengfu was also one of the core figures in the drama that Tianxia helped set up.
Killing Wang Zengfu is equivalent to tearing down a pillar of the Tianxia Gang.
It was a great achievement for the imperial court.
When the drama comes to an end, there will be many benefits.
What's more, Wang Zengfu was one of the murderers of the Xiaowang Village massacre.
In order to get the luck reward after solving the case, Wang Zengfu must also be killed.
but.
The question is how to kill Wang Zengfu.
Xu Taiping held the torch and observed carefully, but found no flaws.
When I opened the "Clearly Observed" function again, there was still no flaw. The gaps in the stone door were so tight that even a hair could not fit in, let alone a blade.
It seems that this is not a one-time building.
It is intended to be used for a long time.
Too.
Being able to mass-produce master-level martial arts cultivators, it is cost-effective no matter how much you invest.
It is estimated that people from the Tianxia Gang are waiting for the good news about Wang Zengfu.
If Wang Zengfu succeeds, Tianxia Gang will definitely devote more resources and strength to this matter.
Even Wang Zengfu himself probably had the intention of training his subordinates.
In this way, it is only reasonable to use fifth-grade heavenly materials and earthly treasures to build the door.
However, if we can break through this place, we are sure to gain a lot of profits.
The stone gate alone is worth a lot of money.
But the problem remains, how to overcome it?
Xu Taiping racked his brains, but found nothing.
Could it be that we can only leave in despair?
Xu Taiping held a torch and drove around the fake tomb with the "Clear Eyes". The more he circled, the wider the area, and he even studied the surrounding tombs one by one.
When he glanced at the small hole on the side of one of the tombs, he suddenly came to his senses.
Air!
breathe!
Wang Zengfu is now only a third-rate warrior. He can hold his breath, but he cannot hold it for too long.
This secret room must have ventilation holes.
The stone gates fit perfectly.
The vent must be somewhere else.
Maybe on one or several tombs.
Thinking of this, I searched again.
And quickly found a small hole that seemed to be a ventilation hole.
Xu Taiping breathed a sigh of relief.
He shook his head towards the willow and said, "Go and cut some branches, both dry and wet."
He rummaged through the Xumi ring again and found some clothes belonging to Sun Jingzhen, as well as some unknown medicines and medicinal materials.
When the willow comes back, light it directly. After the smoke is burned out, blow into the small hole.
Not much effort.
Four or five lines of faint smoke emerged from the nearby tombs.
Xu Taiping was overjoyed: "Block it, block it!"
"Block it all up?"
"Leave an outlet."
Of course, there should be someone to vent your anger on.
If it is completely blocked, there is no way to blow smoke inside. We can only passively wait for the air in the secret room to be consumed. It takes too long and there are too many uncertainties.
It's better to take the initiative to blow smoke inside.
Well, flavored cigarettes.
It only takes a short while for the clean air in the chamber to be replaced by the thick smoke with added ingredients.
When the time comes, Wang Zengfu will either die of suffocation inside or have no choice but to come out.
Xu Taiping didn't care what the medicines and medicinal materials collected by Master Sun Jingzhen were for. He piled them up, stirred them up, threw them all into the fire, and then held his breath and continued to blow smoke into it.
Then change to willow.
So rotate.
It blew for half an hour.
Suddenly I felt a slight vibration.
They looked at each other and rushed to the stone door.
Under the gaze of the two people, the stone door slowly opened, and a figure rushed out coughing, along with a thick puff of smoke.
Without saying a word, Xu Taiping just said "draw the ground as a prison".
Yang Liu drew his sword at the same time.
"Ding--"
Wang Zengfu only blocked one sword, and his head shot up into the sky.
Yang Liu lowered his head to check and nodded: "It's Wang Zengfu!"
Xu Taiping breathed a sigh of relief.
Done!
The reward for the Xiaowang Village massacre is secure.
Wait until the smoke clears.
Xu Taiping and Yang Liu entered the secret room.
But it comes out quickly.
It was empty, without anything valuable, only strange patterns, statues, sarcophagi, and more than a dozen pieces of jade.
Well, the jade was originally valuable, but after the formation was activated, it became useless.
Xu Taiping and Yang Liu destroyed everything that could be destroyed in the secret room.
Then the bodies of Wang Zengfu and his men were thrown in.
Fill in.
Then add camouflage and restoration to make the ground look like anywhere else.
Then he left.
Then.
Go back to the Cao family manor and quietly kill Wang Rusong, the loser.
Return to the guest room, wash up, and rest.
Daybreak.
The Cao Manor became noisy.
Because Cao Xin is missing.
Xu Taiping stepped forward, asked a few questions, and then looked at Cao Xin's wife: "Mrs. Cao, everyone said they have never seen Cao Baozheng, including the night guard. This is very strange. Otherwise, search the manor carefully. A secret room tunnel or something like that?”
Cao Xin's wife's face changed slightly, and she shook her head hastily: "No, no, no, oh, I remembered it, the housewife. My head of household has an otaku, and he often goes out for secret meetings. It's common for him to stay out at night."
The housekeeper also quickly followed: "Yes, yes, my boss should have gone to Miss Yue'er's place. We forgot about it in our hurry. Capt. Xu, I have caused trouble for you."
Xu Taiping raised his eyebrows: "Miss Yue'er? I'll go and ask her."
"No need to trouble you."
"This is the catcher's job."
"Master Xu, Master Xu, our boss is really fine."
"No, this catcher likes to break the casserole and get to the bottom of it!"
"Master Xu, talk here..."
The housekeeper took Xu Taiping to a remote place and took out a five hundred tael of silver notes: "Master Xu, the family scandal must not be made public. Let's leave it like this, huh?"
Xu Taiping frowned: "What? Bribing me to arrest the head?"
"Don't you dare, please invite Mr. Xu to tea," the steward said, taking out another five hundred taels: "I'll invite Mr. Xu and some of the catchers to tea."
Xu Taiping's tone slowed down: "It's okay to drink tea, but I still suspect that there is something going on here."
When the housekeeper heard this, he was slightly relieved and took out another banknote: "Mr. Xu, nothing happened."
Xu Taiping glanced at it.
Oops.
One thousand taels.
Generous enough.
It seems that there are many secrets in this Cao Manor.
I only mentioned that I wanted to search the secret rooms and secret passages, and I frightened the master and the servant into this state.
but.
never mind.
mission completed.
Go back to close the case and get the reward.
Who cares about the mess here?
The county magistrate, the prefect and even the emperor were not in a hurry. Why should I, a little catcher, be in a hurry?
Think so.
Putting the two thousand taels of silver notes into his arms, he laughed and said, "As long as nothing happens, it's best if nothing happens."
The housekeeper wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked with a smile: "Master Xu, look, do you want some breakfast?"
"No, it's a long way to go, so I won't waste any time. Just prepare some dry food and water."
"okay."
"Wait, let's get seven more good horses."
"ah?"
"It's a long way from here to the county seat, and there's no station where you can change horses. If one person rides one horse, he or she may not be able to return to the county seat by nightfall. So if one person rides two horses, it's no problem."
The butler nodded heavily: "Okay!"
A quarter of an hour later.
Xu Taiping led Zheng Bowen to leave Xiaowang Village.
One person and two riders.
Also brought dry food, water and fodder.
A quarter of an hour later, we arrived at Luzuo Township.
Passing by the inn, I saw Wang Erniu, my heart moved slightly, I dismounted and went straight to the inn.
Without saying a word, he threw Wang Erniu and twenty taels of silver.
Whisper for a moment.
Get on your horse and return the same way.
It's two o'clock in the morning.
Xu Taiping's seven men and fourteen horses galloped into the city.
When he arrived at the gate of the county government office, Xu Taiping threw down the reins and ran in. He shouted loudly: "My subordinate Xu Taiping, please see the county magistrate. I have important case information to report!"
