After Gao Hong left, Zhou Yulang immediately ordered martial law throughout the city. By searching for the murderer, suspicious people were arrested everywhere. He knew that Wu Tianliang must be in the county town. Because this hand alone cannot kill him, Wu Tianliang must be in the city to arrange the next plan at any time.
However, no matter how much he searched house to house, searching any suspicious places in woodsheds and cellars, Wu Tianliang could not be found.
An hour later, in an ordinary house in a remote alley.
A woman was sewing in the main room, and a dark-faced man wearing a coarse cloth gown entered the room.
The woman said: "Come back?"
The black-faced man said yes and went directly to the backyard. When he reached a well, he climbed down into the well.
There was a switch under the well, and when he pressed his hand, the wall opened, revealing a basement. He climbed in, and the stone door closed again without any clues.
The secret room is not big, about the same size as an ordinary bedroom. There is only a man in a green shirt, about 20 years old. He has an ordinary appearance and looks older, but has a bookish atmosphere. He is flipping through an account book with Ling Feng and others. Generally the same.
"Military advisor, according to the news, things are exactly as you expected. The imperial envoy has ordered Zhou Yulang to conduct a strict investigation. He is now arresting people everywhere."
The black-faced man cupped his fists and said, the military advisor he mentioned was Wu Tianliang.
Wu Tianliang said: "Brother Chen, there is no need to be polite. You and I have experienced life and death together, and we are brothers, so there is no need for these etiquette. Besides, Liu Feng was naturally defeated and died, so there is no need to mention the military advisor."
"There is no need to persuade the military advisor. I ruined Liu Feng's opportunity to practice. If the military advisor hadn't demoted me to the kitchen and humiliated me many times, I'm afraid I would have invited Liu Feng's murderous hand! Chen Sheng will bear in mind the great kindness of the military advisor. . Moreover, the talent of a military advisor is unparalleled in the world, and there will always be a day when he will succeed. Chen Sheng is willing to follow him for the rest of his life and follow the hard work of dogs and horses!"
This black-faced man was Colonel Chen who had destroyed Liu Feng's understanding of the true meaning of ice soul.
Later, Wu Tianliang saw signs of the rebels' defeat, and quietly retreated with Captain Chen, and then hid in Qinghe County, waiting for the opportunity. In total, Wu Tianliang saved him twice, so he was very grateful and convinced.
In fact, without Chen Sheng's martial arts skills, Wu Tianliang would not have been able to do many things, such as killing several business owners to silence them. Their abilities complement each other perfectly.
As for this shelter, it was arranged by Liu when Wu Tianliang was still with Zhou Yulang, and there was more than one such stronghold. The woman outside the door was bought by him from the brothel, and the deed of sale was still in his hand. And she does have a man who looks exactly like Chen Sheng. However, that man is dead now. Chen Sheng wore an identical human skin mask in his place.
Wu Tianliang knew Chen Sheng's character and did not try to persuade him. He said, "What did Qiao Yingjie say?"
Qiao Yingjie is Qiao Yunfeng's son. After Qiao Yunfeng's death, he took his place and took control of the remaining Nether Palace troops in Qinghe County.
Wu Tianliang also found this person through the Nether Palace's contact information yesterday and was ready to cooperate. Although he had a comprehensive plan, he was short of manpower. However, although Qiao Yingjie was very interested in his plan, he was not completely sure. Although he agreed, he would not take action until he saw the effect.
Chen Sheng smiled and said: "My subordinates have not seen this person, but his subordinates said that their experts were in place last night. They should have received the signal and started to take action now! Moreover, he also said that he wanted to invite military advisors to join him. He is willing to treat me with the courtesy of a military advisor!"
Obviously, Qiao Yingjie also discovered Wu Tianliang's power and was ready to take advantage of him.
Wu Tianliang smiled faintly and said, "Let's finish this matter first!"
He could never feel at ease if Xiaoyu's revenge was not avenged. Fame and wealth were like clouds to him. He had already paid too much for this and would never allow another failure!
An hour later, the Qingjiao Gang main hall.
At this time, Ling Feng was reading the information on Vajra Tutuo's bitter precepts. This man was an orphan and was adopted by his master, Master Jingkong of the Dajra Monastery. He was carefully trained and had extremely solid kung fu and extraordinary talent. He was able to achieve a breakthrough in innateness at the age of twenty. It can be said that he is a genius. Although the current abbot of the Great Vajra Temple, Abbot Kuchan, is a close disciple of the previous abbot, the Jixin Master, his qualifications are average and he did not break through to the innate realm until he was thirty years old. Later, he presided over the death of Master Jixin, and he competed with Kuchan to preside over it.
position, but was blocked by Master Jing Kong. Although he was wronged, his teacher's kindness was as great as Mount Tai and he had to obey.
Later, his master passed away, and he prepared to compete for the position of host again, but was seriously injured by Kuchan during the competition. Only then did he know that the abbot's lineage controls the Immortal Golden Body of the Great Vajra Temple, the highest secret skill. So he broke into the Sutra Pavilion at night to steal the secret book of the Great Vajra's Immortal Golden Body. However, he was seriously injured by the guardian elder who guarded the Sutra Pavilion and rebelled.
Suddenly, a maid came to report: "Deputy gang leader, Protector Xiao wants to see you!"
Ling Feng put away the file, but said: "Let him in!"
"Deputy Gang Leader, just as you expected, something big happened again. The magistrates of Yuxi, Qingshan, Hanshui, and Yunshui counties were assassinated."
Xiao Wenliang cupped his fists and said. When Ling Feng told him to pay attention to the situation in each county before, he still didn't understand it, but now he understood it.
In fact, it was not too difficult for Ling Feng to expect this. At this point, evidence is actually not the most important thing.
Because although Zhou Yulang is a corrupt official, he is also a capable minister. In Qinghe County, there has been almost no major trouble in these years. Although he is corrupt, he has a bottom line and can do practical things. The court still likes this kind of official very much. According to the nature of the imperial court, as long as Zhou Yulang takes care of a few things and handles his hands and feet cleanly, this matter will eventually be reduced to a minor issue and suppressed.
Wu Tianliang must have been able to see this, so his only resort was to make the matter bigger, make it known to everyone, and make the matter public, forcing the court to investigate thoroughly. The county magistrates who bribed Zhou Yulang were undoubtedly the best targets. They were assassinated, and Zhou Yulang was first suspected. So many county magistrates were assassinated and they couldn't be covered up even if they tried!
Ling Feng asked again: "How many died?"
Wu Tianliang said: "Only the Yuxi County Magistrate survived by chance."
Ling Feng secretly admired how wonderful it was to keep this one alive! The county magistrate is now frightened. Once the court investigates, he will be silenced and will definitely be recruited. Therefore, Zhou Yulang should be embarrassed now. This is the only living survivor. If he does not silence his mouth, he will face charges. But if he were killed, the matter would become even bigger and attract more attention, which would make it impossible to suppress it. Once clues are found by the court, it will really be a serious crime to punish the Nine Clan!
At this time, Zhou Yulang actually had no choice but to kill! Even if he didn't silence him, the imperial court would not be able to suppress the death of so many seventh-grade county magistrates. They would definitely conduct a thorough investigation. Only by completely silencing him could he save a chance of survival.
It can only be said that Wu Tianliang played this move very well. He pressed forward step by step and gave Zhou Yulang no chance to react.
