The sun sets over the west mountain, and the lintel of Kowloon Hall is dim.
Cao Lei stared at the person in front of him and exclaimed: "It's you!"
But after thinking about it, he felt that it was reasonable, "Yes, it should be you."
Zhao Jin took off his bamboo hat and bowed deeply to Cao Lei.
"My junior's original name is Zhao Jin, and he was once the head of the Yongshun County Yamen. I had some difficulties in the past and couldn't speak frankly. I hope Hall Master Cao won't be surprised."
"How can I blame you? If it were me, I would be more cautious than you."
Cao Lei's tone was complicated. He never expected that Chen Ping's trump card would be him.
Moreover, Zhao Jin was actually introduced by Xie Zhiyuan. Doesn’t that mean that Xie Zhiyuan was involved in Chen Ping’s plan and not just in the wine business?
"Brother Zhao was already fast enough last time. I didn't want them to get the news early," Chen Ping's eyes flashed, "It's a pity."
"Most likely it was Lao San and the others who made mistakes in their actions. No one else can blame them for this."
Cao Lei was also helpless, as he was almost able to catch Ling Shu.
"But the faster the Ling Shu transfers, the more it means that we have grasped his lifeline, but we don't know where the thing has been transferred?"
Although Zhao Jin is unwilling to do so, the matter has reached this point and there is no point in further investigation.
Chen Ping took out the map and connected all the places Jiulongtang had visited. The area was still very large.
"It takes less than a day to eliminate the ruts and move the freight. It shouldn't be too far."
Zhao Jin understood this and said, "Then the leader of Hall Cao and I will split up into two groups. He will be in the open and I will be in the dark. We will communicate with each other in a timely manner as soon as there is news."
"No matter how far he hides, he can't escape Qianzhou!"
Cao Lei clenched his fist and smashed it on the table, filled with hatred.
......
The moon was dark and the wind was high, and the east city gate quietly opened.
"Master, why are we going out at this hour? Aren't we afraid of being caught by the people from Kowloon Hall?" the boy asked in surprise.
Ling Shu lowered the car curtain and smiled coldly.
"Without evidence, how dare they touch me? Besides, Cao Lei is old, how can he do everything he wants?"
Huge dark clouds covered the shadow of the carriage like a splash of ink, and the sky seemed to collapse at any time.
Ling Shu pressed his fingers hard on his knees, with a sinister look on his lips.
Not long after, the carriage stopped again.
A voice came from outside the car.
"Why are you here? Didn't we agree that we won't meet during this time?"
"The Jiulong Hall has blocked the road ahead. What are you telling me now?" Ling Shu sneered, "I'm afraid there are a lot of ideas on the way, right?"
"It's quite a lot. All the cargo orders in the past two months have been returned to the hall. Now there are at least 200 hidden stakes arranged near several official exit roads."
"Two hundred? That old man is really willing to put in the effort!"
Ling Shu grinded his back molars hard, making a harsh sound.
The road ahead was blocked, the customs clearance letter had not been received, and the time limit was approaching. Ling Shu was furious, opened the curtain, and stared at the long shadow in the dark.
"You're rubbish, can't you find a way to open a way?"
"Boss Ling, there's no point in urging me on this matter," the man said helplessly, "Cao Lei personally gave the order, and no one can disobey it."
"Why, have you received the customs clearance letter?" the other party asked curiously.
Ling Shu was choked by him, and his face became even more livid. "Don't worry about this matter. Anyway, within ten days, you must find a way out for me!"
The man hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head.
"There have been too many things happening in the hall recently. If I take action easily, someone will definitely find out."
"It seems that old immortal is determined to go against me this time!"
"Oh, he doesn't want to go against you, he wants you to die! How Cao Huowang died, you know better than anyone else."
The hatred of killing his son is as deep as the sea. Cao Lei has half his foot in the coffin, but he is not afraid of any fish being killed.
Ling Shu's eyes darkened, and his fingers subconsciously touched the ring on his hand.
If Kowloon Hall hadn't done things that ruined him several times, why would he have been forced to this point?
The inventory of that batch of goods is huge, and I am afraid that it will be a little stretched within ten days, but at this juncture...
If something goes wrong, he will definitely die this time with the above methods.
Immortal things!
If you want to kill me, then don’t blame me for being ruthless!
"Then what are you going to do to open the way for you to take charge of Kowloon Hall?"
The man's breath suffocated, "You want to kill him?"
Malice sprouted like bamboo shoots, and Ling Shu's heart skipped a beat.
"If something goes wrong with the goods, I will have nowhere to escape. Since he will die no matter what, let him die!"
"Except for the hidden piles, most of the halls are near Liujiazhuang. They are heavily guarded every day. This is not something that can be achieved."
Although the man was a little moved, he had to take the actual situation into consideration, so he still hesitated.
However, Ling Shu was so anxious that he lost his mind. His voice was hoarse and his eyes were about to burst.
"Stop fucking hesitating! Cao Lei killed me, do you think you can survive?"
He stared at the man, like a poisonous snake spitting out venom, and his gaze suddenly became a little more threatening. "Don't forget, you are also involved in Cao Huowang's death!"
Ling Shu's current plan is to open up the Jiulongtang road first. After the customs clearance letter is issued, the goods can be sent out in batches as quickly as possible.
Ling Shu has no time left, he has the knife hanging on his neck now, and he will kill anyone who blocks him.
So we have to kill Cao Lei first and get rid of this roadblock! Otherwise, even if there is no customs clearance letter, the goods may not be shipped smoothly.
The man was also calmed down by Ling Shu's words, and his eyes showed a bit of coldness.
After pondering for a long time, he nodded.
"Okay."
On the fourth day of March, it rained heavily.
Thunderstorms and violent winds pressed down on the thick clouds, and the long night seemed to have not faded away.
Cao Lei sat in the hall, listening to the reports from the three hall masters, his eyes solemn.
"Several roads have been blocked, and manpower has been deployed overtly and covertly. As well as the area near Sophora Flower Village, our people almost turned over three or four times..."
"Still found nothing?" Cao Lei frowned.
Huaihua Village is not big. Even horse racing in half a day is enough to cover the thirty miles around.

With so much cargo, there are no traces left by the carriers and trucks.
The third hall master was also helpless about this. He didn't know where he had missed the loophole, and Ling Shu had escaped early.
At this moment, the second hall master walked in.
"Boss, the people who can be dispatched have been dispatched. Why don't you take a rest first..."
Before he finished speaking, there were sudden rapid footsteps behind him.
"Hall Master! Hall Master, there is news!"
Cao Lei stood up suddenly, his eyes like lightning.
"What news?"
The subordinate was panting and stared at everyone in the hall excitedly.
"It's that batch of goods! We found a lot of ruts in a dense forest near Fifty Miles to the west of Huaihua Village!"
"Seriously? I'll take people there right now!" The third hall master was overjoyed.
"Wait!" At this time, the second hall master suddenly stopped him, "I didn't find anything before, why did I suddenly find it this time?"
As soon as these words came out, the excitement of the third hall master also faded away.
Cao Lei also had this question in his mind, so he asked: "Please explain clearly."
The subordinates hurriedly replied: "Back to the hall masters, the rut marks turned out to be covered by leaves, and the vehicles were heading into the mountains. At the end we have a cave covered by vines! Passing directly through the cave is another abandoned village.
!"
No wonder they couldn't find it after searching for so long. It turned out that there was a secret passage.
Cao Lei couldn't wait and shouted: "Here comes..."
"Boss, wait!"
After the test, it was indeed positive.
I haven’t had any sun exposure for several years, but I finally got infected.
I'm writing code despite having a high fever and not making any money, so I'm just doing it purely for love.
Updates are irregular these days, so I try my best to keep them updated.
