Thick lead clouds filled the sky, and falling snowflakes brought a biting chill.
At this moment, in the first snow of winter, Chen Zheng was standing in the yard wearing single clothes.
There were dead leaves scattered around the yard.
And all of a sudden.
He took a deep breath, his chest rose and fell, and he let it out suddenly.
There was a roar! As if a giant beast roared across the sky and earth, the wind suddenly blew loudly in the yard, and the fallen leaves on the ground roared up, and then were blown all over the sky by the strong wind he stirred up!
In one breath, a strong wind blew!
Clang!
At this moment when the fallen leaves were flying, a ray of sword light suddenly burst out from Chen Zheng's hand, with continuous flashes!
The sound of the sword light was fierce and huge, like a raging storm, sweeping in all directions.
Chen Zheng's figure and even the light of the sword completely turned into a crazy flashing phantom, flashing across every flying leaf as if tearing everything to pieces, the figure was as fast as a shooting star phantom!
In just a few breaths, hundreds of flying leaves in the sky shattered one after another. All of them were silently shredded by the light of the sword, falling feebly like rain.
After a few breaths.
call.
In the center of the broken leaves, Chen Zheng's figure suddenly stopped and looked around at the chopped dead leaves at his feet.
There are hundreds of dead leaves, but at a glance, I can’t find a single intact one!
“Not bad, not bad”
He looked around with a satisfied smile.
It has been seven or eight days since I got the Heavenly Star Step.
In the past seven or eight days, he quickly mastered this identity, entered the hall, and practiced it skillfully. Now he has shown extraordinary results.
After only practicing for seven or eight days, the speed of this body technique has almost caught up with Dacheng's Fengyun Huanbu. It is really powerful.
Of course, he did not miss the Four Symbols Sword of Heaven's Will, which is his special skill, and its progress was faster than the progress of the body skills. All the Four Symbols Sword moves of wind, rain, thunder and lightning came into play.
But without a suitable opponent, he could only vent his anger by chopping leaves in the yard.
"knock off."
After verifying the recent cultivation results, Chen Zheng tidied up, pushed out the door, and went to the Supervision Department.
After finishing the call, just when he was preparing to leave as usual, his boss Liu Yuanming suddenly appeared and summoned everyone.
In the conference hall, besides Liu Yuanming, there were still only three commanders present, Huang Shihu, Song Chengjin, and Shen Li.
When Chen Zheng came in, Liu Yuanming smiled and motioned for him to sit down, and then looked around at everyone:
"Do you know why I summoned you?"
Everyone shook their heads in cooperation:
"I don't know, please let me know."
Liu Yuanming said slowly:
"We learned through secret information that the branch of the Tianmu Sect, which was wiped out half a year ago, seems to be reviving, and it is even suspected that a high-level leader is lurking in Lingqiu County.
Now Zhu Xie Division has started a secret investigation and manhunt, intending to find out the remaining gangsters, follow the clues, and catch Mrs. Wumu behind them to make up for their previous mistakes of slipping through the net."
Mrs. Five Eyes!?
After such a long time, Chen Zheng raised his eyebrows when he heard this name again.
The other three inspectors looked at each other and said curiously:
"Sir, what does this have to do with us?"
"How come it doesn't matter?"
Liu Yuanming glanced at him:
"The Supervision Department has the power to supervise, and it is within our scope of responsibility to deal with the remnants of these evil cults. The county governor has told us that we hope that our Supervision Department will also conduct an investigation as soon as possible, preferably before the Evil Punishment Department.
, looking for traces of those monsters."
"Lord Sheriff? That's it."
The three commanders suddenly had a clear look on their faces, but Song Chengjin smiled and said:
"Sir, the governor is dissatisfied with Nie Haisheng, so he wants us to defeat his authority?"
Liu Yuanming said calmly:
"Does this need to be said? Nie Haisheng sits in charge of the Zhuxie Division and never listens to greetings. If it weren't for his high level of cultivation, he would have been reprimanded ten thousand times. The last time he led a team to encircle and suppress the branch of the Tianmu Divine Cult, although he destroyed it
, but the real big fish was not caught.
If our Supervisory Department can take the lead and root out this group of monsters, then it will be equivalent to a slap in the face of the Zhu Xie Department, which is what the County Sheriff is happy to see."
Chen Zheng's focus was naturally different from theirs, and he immediately asked:
"Sir, is Mrs. Wumu also in Lingqiu County?"
Liu Yuanming shook his head:
"It shouldn't be there. Nie Haisheng is in charge of the Zhuxie Division in Lingqiu County. A high-level executive like Mrs. Wumu generally won't commit personal danger. The news I got is that some high-ranking leaders came here, and the specific purpose is temporarily unknown. However,
The incense ceremony is approaching, and these people are obviously coming with bad intentions."
Could it be that the senior leaders are Qi Gang, Gu Liangsheng and the others?
The Incense Sacrifice is one of the most important festivals in this world. It is said that it is specially set up for the coming of gods from heaven to save the world.
Chen Zheng's mind flashed, and he added: "If we investigate, do you have any clues?"
Facing Chen Zheng, Liu Yuanming was very patient and sighed:
"Not yet. I learned this news through Zhu Xie Division. They seem to have found nothing in the past few days. Naturally, I don't have any clues here."
As he spoke, he turned to the others:
"After you go back, immediately activate all channels and informants and do your best to investigate. It is best to get the results before Zhu Xie Division. The Sheriff will definitely be very happy, and the reward for your merits will not be small. Do you understand?"
The other three commanders were all quite moved, but Shen Li hesitated and said:
"Sir, Zhu Xie Division is much better than us in terms of manpower and information channels. It seems that they want to find this person before them."
Shen Li is a typical old fritter, Liu Yuanming said displeased:
"You think I don't know? Everything depends on people. If you want to show your face in front of the governor, then do your best."
Shen Lishan smiled and said no more.
There was nothing to say next. Chen Zheng's mind flashed. After looking at each other, he agreed with the others:
"Subordinates must do their best."
After coming out of the meeting hall.
Chen Zheng immediately summoned four of his men, Chai Tiefeng and Chang Qing.
"What, tracking down the demons of the Tianmu God Sect?"
After simply settling the situation, the four subordinates looked at each other wondering:
"Sir, don't you have any clues? If there are no clues, it would be difficult to find someone in Lingqiu County."
Chen Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly and said:
"Clues. I have some friendship with Deputy Lieutenant Qin of the Zhuxie Division. I might as well ask. What are the intelligence channels of the Supervision Division itself?"
Chai Tiefeng thought for a while and said:
"It mainly relies on people's voluntary reporting of crimes, as well as information collected through various informants and brokers. If they provide information, we will provide a certain reward."
This information channel is rough enough
Chen Zheng said helplessly:
"Okay, you guys contact the informant first, and then we'll talk about the rest after I get the clues."
"yes."
The four of them bowed and agreed, then immediately dispersed to carry out their orders.
Looking at the backs of the four people leaving, Chen Zheng's eyes flashed.
Unexpectedly, just after stabilization, people from the Tianmu Divine Sect appeared again. For both public and private reasons, he would help the Supervision Department to destroy the other party, even for the sake of his own identity.
As for clues, he also knows quite a few.
At least he knew a lot about the appearance, accent, body shape, habits, etc. of the two emissaries Qi Gang and Gu Liangsheng.
However, one is whether these two people are here, and the other is that when they come to Lingqiu County, they will inevitably disguise themselves. It is quite difficult to use this as a breakthrough.
Comparatively speaking, it seems more reliable to ask Qin Weixin.
With a plan in mind, Chen Zheng couldn't help but sneer on his face:
"Qi Gang, Qi Gang, it's best not to let me discover you first."
After returning home, Chen Zheng immediately took action.
Mainly, he went to the Thunder Martial Arts Center as an excuse to visit, and then deliberately started a conversation, and then asked sideways about the remnants of the Tianmu Divine Sect.
Qin Weixin didn't hide anything from him and told him directly.
However, it is a pity that Zhu Xiesi currently has no clues and is just casting a net everywhere, looking for a needle in a haystack.
After learning the truth, Chen Zheng was really helpless, but he had no choice but to summon four of his men and tell them the general information he knew about Qi Ganggu Liangsheng, so that they could pay more attention.
There is no surveillance or Skynet in this world, and all kinds of makeup techniques are comparable to plastic surgery and hair changes. After making these arrangements, Chen Zheng only has to wait.
He didn't have much expectations in his heart. In order to avoid exposing himself, he kept a low profile and reduced his public appearances, rarely going out on the streets except when necessary.
However, what is unexpected is.
One afternoon just three days later, Chai Tiefeng brought him very unexpected news.
"You said the target was found?"
He never expected to receive a reply so soon. Chen Zheng looked suspicious:
"Where is the target and how did you find it?"
Chai Tiefeng said slightly excitedly:
"Sir, it's on Lanke Street in the outer city. We have an informant who is the gangster leader in that area. It was based on the information provided by this person that we locked the target!"
"According to the informant's report, the target is a man between thirty and forty, tall and powerful, and he has just moved to Lanke Street recently. The surrounding neighbors do not know this person. The reason why I think
This person is wrong because he buys two pairs of pig eyes from an online butcher shop almost every day, almost every day!"
Most of the members of Tianmu Divine Sect are fond of eye-eating. All things considered, this person's situation is undoubtedly very suspicious. Chen Zheng's eyes suddenly moved:
"Then what? Didn't you alert the enemy?"
Chai Tiefeng said quickly:
"No, we know how powerful it is. After receiving the tip-off, Chang Qing took people to visit the location in person to determine where the person lived. I came to inform you and ask for your instructions."
Chen Zheng said without saying a word: "Let's go, lead the way!"
The sun sets in the west, and the dusk light lengthens all the shadows. Under the thin layer of snow, the vendors in the streets and alleys finish their business for the day and return home in droves.
XC District, a remote neighborhood near the suburbs.
After hearing the news, Chen Zheng changed into casual clothes and arrived at the neighborhood where the target lived.
This neighborhood near the suburbs is far less bustling than the central city.
The place is remote and run-down, the residences are messy, and beggars and idlers can often be seen here.
At this moment, in a quiet corner of the alley, friends from Chai Tiefeng, Changqing, Han Kaiyunding and Ding, all dressed as idle men, gathered in front of Chen Zheng.
Through the corner of the wall, looking at a house about twenty or thirty feet away diagonally opposite, Chen Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly:
"That person is still inside, hasn't he gone out?"
"Return to my lord, not yet."
Chang Qing, dressed like an idle man, replied:
"A few of us have been watching around the house before. From the time we went to notify him to the time you arrived here, it was only half an hour. The man stayed in the house and did not go out."
Chen Zheng said in a deep voice:
"You three didn't alert the snake, did you?"
Han Kaiyun said immediately:
"Don't worry, sir. In terms of martial arts strength, we may not be much, but in terms of tracking, we still have some experience. If that person is the leader of the Tianmu Divine Sect, he is at least a master of the blood exchange level. We did not follow him closely, we just determined that this person
It’s just a place for people to live.”
After all, they are all veterans and can make no mistakes in their actions. Seeing that the cooked duck has not yet flown, Chen Zheng nodded with satisfaction:
"Yes, you handled it well."
Chai Tiefeng asked cautiously:
"Sir, what should we do next? We can't be sure if there is only one person in the yard. We don't have a lot of manpower here. It's not easy to mobilize people from the Zhuxie Division or the Defense Force in the XC area, and there is no one in the house.
I don’t know if there’s any trap or something like that if we rush in.”
With Chen Zheng, a great master of blood exchange, it is natural that the remnants of the Tianmu Divine Sect alone will not be able to do well.
However, the problem is that the number of these cultists is unknown, and their methods are weird and cunning. With their existing manpower, it is not a sure thing to encircle and arrest them. If one or two are let go, it will really not be good.
Chen Zheng frowned slightly and was also thinking about this issue.
As one of Madam Wumu's confidants, Qi Gang's cultivation seems to be between one blood transfusion and two blood transfusions, and at most it will not exceed two blood transfusions.
He was not sure whether the person inside the house was Qi Gang. If so, he had to ensure that he was silenced before the other party recognized him. There could be no mistakes.
And just when he was thinking about it.
"Chen Zheng, Chai Tiefeng, Chang Qing?"
Not far behind him, a surprised questioning voice suddenly came out:
"What are you doing here?"
Chen Zheng turned his eyes and saw his colleague Huang Shihu, who was also dressed in casual clothes at the other end of the alley, and brought several subordinates with him, looking over with gloomy eyes.
