Chapter 184 278~279 The suspicion of the five eyes, the waves arose again
And just when Chen Zheng was re-practice of the martial arts.
Outside Lingqiu County, there is a small town that is more than 200 miles away.
In the dark secret room, the air seemed to freeze into ice, and the enchanting figure of the Five-Mysterious Lady was like a sculpture, sitting cross-legged in the center of the secret room, motionless.
It can be seen that at this moment, her charming face was blue and white, and a faint white frost condensed between her eyebrows, exuding a kind of impatient cold air from the inside out.
The cold air seemed to blowing in the Arctic glaciers, spreading around, so that the walls of the secret room were covered with frost.
I don't know how long it took.
call.
After a long breath, the Wumei Lady, who was like a frozen man, opened her eyes, and the blue and white color on her face and even the white frost on her body also faded away.
And as she breathed, the air flow swept through like a spring breeze, sweeping away the cold air that filled her body.
"What an ice-like spirit, it took me so many geniuses to get rid of it."
Mrs. Wumu slowly stood up and sneered to herself:
"I didn't expect that Nie Haisheng actually started to use the talisman of heaven to condense the aura to refine evil spirits. I am afraid I am still not a match for this person, but it's a pity."
Condensing the Gang and refining evil spirits is a necessary practice step in the realm of the Great Master of Tiangang. You can condense your true energy into Gang and your cultivation level will be qualitatively changed.
Generally speaking, only a real Tiangang Realm powerhouse can use such a method, but she can judge that Nie Haisheng seemed to rely on the talisman of heaven and man to condense these two ice evil evil spirits in a different way.
Of course, Nie Haisheng was immersed in the realm of Zhenwu for a long time, and his true energy was extremely powerful and concise. For example, if she had only been promoted to the realm of Zhenwu in the past two years, she would never be able to do this.
After several days of retreat, Mrs. Wumu left the secret room after having a good time.
The secret room is located in the backyard of a cultural and entertainment shop. After she came out, she shaking the bell, and the shopkeeper was immediately alarmed and rushed over immediately:
"Madam, have you come out of seclusion?"
Mrs. Wumu nodded slightly: "How is it, how are Qi Gang and the others?"
The shopkeeper said carefully: "Not yet, they may still be in Lingqiu County at this moment. I heard the news that Qi Nei made them succeed in the valley. Although there were casualties, half of the manpower was successfully withdrawn, but he was temporarily trapped in the county city."
Mrs. Wumu said unhappy:
"I asked you to send someone to find a way to pick you up, but you didn't go?"
The shopkeeper hurriedly said:
"You don't know that during the days when you were in seclusion, the entire city of Lingqiu County has been blocked. All the gates entering and leaving the city must be searched. The remaining few people cannot enter the city at all, so."
Mrs. Wumu frowned:
"Forget it, it's not your fault. The things on their hands are quite important. I'll go and pick them up in person."
The shopkeeper was a little frightened: "Madam, why don't I go with you?"
Mrs. Wumu nodded:
"They have been sleepy for these days, and I don't know what the specific casualties are. You call two good players and bring some healing pills. We set off in the afternoon."
"yes."
The shopkeeper didn't say anything anymore and stepped back respectfully.
So a moment later.
The horses were ready. After a brief bath and rest, Mrs. Wumei closed the shop, led the shopkeeper and two church members disguised as friends to leave the town.
The town is only more than 200 miles away from Lingqiu County, and it can be reached in one or two hours.
When the four of them approached the city again, night had already arrived, but the torches on the city walls were connected together, and almost every ten steps, the soldiers of the defense were patrolling, and the defense was so tight that they could hardly be poured into it.
Seeing this, when Mrs. Wumu was two or three miles apart, she asked her three men to stop by the road:
"The city wall is very garrisoned. You three cannot enter, so stay here to prepare for the response."
The shopkeeper and the three others dared not show off, so they should be respectfully so.
After Mrs. Wumu finished speaking, she was like a ghost and drifted towards the city.
As the master of the Qi Refining Secret Realm, her figure was completely integrated into the night during her actions, which was not something that ordinary people could capture.
Therefore, until she had arrived under the city wall, the soldiers holding torches on the top of the city were still unaware of anything.
Then the next moment, the soldier's head was dizzy for no reason and then staggered.
Ten steps apart, another soldier suddenly looked at him and asked nervously: "Tiger, what's wrong with you kid?"
The soldiers called tigers were completely unknown, so they covered their foreheads with a slightly white complexion:
"No, it's okay. I don't know if it was blown hard by the wind or what happened. My head was a little dizzy just now."
"Hey, you guys are weak. You can't be squeezed out by your wife, right? Look at me and learn a little!"
"roll!"
The two soldiers laughed and scolded, and no one took it seriously.
What they did not notice was that a figure had already crossed the city wall and floated towards the city.
Since Feitian Centauri attacked the city, curfew has been imposed in the city, and there have been no other figures on the streets except for the patrol soldiers coming and going.
The figure of Mrs. Wumu is like a ghost, traveling through the city without disturbing anyone.
As the lord, she naturally knows the safety points and contact points in the city.
After a while, she came to an abandoned and remote yard, and then went straight to the backyard to find the hidden underground entrance.
First, he hit the slightest rhythmically. After not getting a response, Mrs. Wumu browed slightly, and then forced the iron plate to open and enter the ground.
As a result, it was naturally empty inside, with nothing but herbs and bloody smells floating around.
There were still blood-stained bandages scattered on the ground. After a brief look at Mrs. Wumei, she confirmed that Qi Gang and others must have been here a few days ago, and they might have been transferred because of what situation.
There is another safe place in the city where she can hide. She immediately walked out of the cellar and headed to another place.
However.
When she arrived at that safe place, she suddenly found that there was no one there, and there was even no trace of Qi Gang and others staying!
Um?
The Wumei Lady, who had found nothing, changed slightly, and doubts appeared in her heart.
Based on the information found by his subordinates, it can be confirmed that Qi Gang Gu Liangsheng and others have succeeded and have not been arrested by the government and the Zhu Xiesi Department.
But there are only two safe places to hide in the city. Where will they go if they are not here?
Looking around, there was no clue. She pondered for a moment, left secret codes at two locations, and then returned the same way, used the same trick again, and safely crossed the city wall at the other end and left the city.
When he returned to the place where his three subordinates were preparing to pick him up, the shopkeeper saw that Mrs. Wumu was returning alone and asked in surprise:
"Madam, Zine makes them?"
"They are not at the safe point I know, maybe because of some accidental transfer to somewhere else."
Mrs. Wumu's eyes were faint:
"There is a very tight noise in the city now. You can think of a way to sneak into the city during this period, find a way to contact them as soon as possible, and then notify me!"
Although it was a little embarrassed, the shopkeeper immediately agreed: "Yes!"
Naturally, it was unclear that Mrs. Wumu actually returned to the city.
In the following time, Chen Zhengsong, who no longer had to search every day, slowed down and devoted most of his time and energy to cultivation.
Compared to his ease, as the deadline approached, the supervisory department and even commander Liu Yuanming became more and more anxious.
The ten-day deadline has arrived.
That afternoon.
Liu Yuanming, who had a bad face, summoned Chen Zheng alone and went to the government office to report his work together.
Chen Zheng was curious, and after asking, he found out that it was the county magistrate Ouyang Ji who summoned Liu Yuanming specifically mentioned that he wanted to go with him as well.
This undoubtedly surprised Chen Zheng even more. He didn't know what Ouyang Ji wanted to summon him.
Obviously, hundreds of people from the Supervision Department have gained nothing in these days, and going there will definitely be no reward.
Without any extra words, the two of them immediately came to the government office to ask for a meeting.
There were people coming and going in the government office, not only the Supervision Department, but also relevant personnel from the Criminal Criminal Department and the Defense Army were also present.
They were Wu Daorong, the chief of the Chief of the Criminal Office who had once dealt with when Chen Zheng first came to Lingqiu County, and another big man in armor was Hongcheng, the commander of the defense army who had just been promoted.
After a while, everyone was invited to a conference hall.
There was no communication between the three leaders Liu Yuanming and the three leaders. They were waiting silently, while Chen Zheng sat in the corner, and he was not attentive to his own affairs.
"The county magistrate is here--"
After a while, after a loud shout, Ouyang Ji walked in with his confidant staff and majestic momentum.
Everyone present immediately saluted in unison:
"I've met the county magistrate."
"No gift."
Ouyang Ji waved his hand expressionlessly, sat down in the main seat, and looked around everyone:
"The ten-day deadline has arrived. You are the pillars of my Lingqiu County. Can you tell me where are the demons who intercepted and killed the evil spirit department now?"
Everyone was silent and speechless.
Ouyang Jiyan's eyes swept over one by one:
"The Supervision Department has been registered with 278 people, the Criminal Criminal Department has been registered with 320 people, and the Defense Army has 8,000 garrison officers. With so many people, can't even find a few evil demons?"
Liu Yuanming and the other three could only lower their heads to apologize:
"We cannot do our jobs well, and we are ashamed of the entrusted lord of the county magistrate, so please punish me."
"Please punish the county magistrate!"
Seeing everyone's attitude, Ouyang Ji's eyes were relaxed a little:
"I will discuss the matter of punishment and surrender. Now who can tell me if those demons are still in the city?"
Everyone looked at each other, Hong Cheng pondered for a moment, and replied:
"According to the information provided by the Zhuxie Department, the remains of the evil demons they were robbed were quite large and not convenient to carry. In the past few days, our defense army's major city gates and sections of the city walls were strictly guarded, and no abnormalities were found.
From this we can judge that most of the demons are still hiding somewhere in the city, waiting for the opportunity to escape from the city.”
Liu Yuanming nodded repeatedly: "Yes, the officials also think so."
Ouyang Ji glanced at him and said lightly: "So, what can the Supervisory Office do to lure the snake out of the hole and lead the group out?"
Liu Yuanming looked embarrassed: "I forgive my uncle for being stupid, I have never thought of it for the time being."
Ouyang Ji didn't continue to force him, but just sighed:
"Don't blame me for being harsh. It's really the whereabouts of this group of monsters. Wei Duwei is still in seclusion and healing his wounds, and the situation is unknown. If such a big thing happened in Lingqiu County, Lord Zhou Mu has sent a letter to hold him accountable. If he cannot give an explanation, everyone here, including me, will not be able to have a good time."
Everyone looked at each other and could only speak:
"Sir, can you give me some more gratitude?"
"The ten-day time is too short. That group of demons will definitely wait for the sensation to pass before trying to leave the city. That is the time to catch them all in one go!"
"Give us another month, within a month, I will definitely give you an explanation!"
Ouyang Ji pondered:
"Okay, since that's the case, I'll give you another month. If you're still as clueless as today, don't blame me for being merciless!"
Liu Yuanming and others bowed to the promise:
"Don't worry, magistrate, we will do our best!"
In the corner, Chen Zheng laughed secretly in his heart when he saw this situation.
Qi Gang and others, who were worried about the people present, have now buried their bones and burials. Not to mention a month, it is impossible to wait for another ten months.
He was curious about what Liu Yuanming and others could use to submit a mission to Ouyang Ji after the expiration of a month.
There was nothing to say next. Ouyang Ji ended the meeting after asking a few more questions.
Before everyone dispersed, he left Chen Zheng specifically, which attracted the attention of others.
Including Liu Yuanming himself, he was both envious and jealous, as if he wanted to leave him alone.
Even though I am curious, no one dares to say anything.
After everyone left, Chen Zheng was neither humble nor arrogant: "I don't know what instructions did the county magistrate summoned a humble position?"
Ouyang Ji's smile is gentle at this moment, which is completely different from his previous attitude towards everyone:
"Actually, it's nothing. It's just that the last time Feitian Centauri attacked the city, the minefielder took action. Because the situation is chaotic, I have not had time to thank him. I hope you can convey your gratitude to the minefielder when you go back."
Chen Zheng immediately responded: "I must bring the words to you."
Ouyang Ji smiled and nodded, and continued to ask:
"I occasionally hear people say that you are not actually the distant nephew of the owner of the minefield, but his newly accepted fifth personal disciple. Is there any such incident?"
Because the matter of Teng Qilong has diverted the suspicion of Teng's family, although it has not been handled in a large manner, the news that Chen Zheng became the fifth personal disciple of Lei Yunting was still made public on a small scale.
I was prepared for the matter of identity, Chen Zheng nodded:
"The county magistrate doesn't know that I am indeed Senior Lei's son and nephew, and I am also attracted by Senior Lei's eyes, so I am fortunate to become his disciple."
"I see."
Ouyang Ji nodded suddenly:
"So, your ability is not entirely taught by the owner of the minefield? You have such cultivation at a young age. It is indeed a young talent, even better than I imagined."
Chen Zheng pretended to be modest: "The county magistrate has been too rewarded, and this ability of a humble position is nothing."
Ouyang Ji smiled:
"Don't be humble. I came from the Ouyang family and I am well-informed. There are not many young people as outstanding as you in the entire clan. Although Lingqiu County is a county town, it is located in a corner. Real talents should have a broader world, so that they can show their strengths and make their mark."
Um?
He actually drew a big cake.
Are you planning to recruit me?
Chen Zheng heard the meaning of the other party's words and performed:
"What the county magistrate said is that Bei Zhi feels the same way."
"very good."
Faced with Chen Zheng's tactfulness, Ouyang Ji was very satisfied:
"What I cherish most is real talents, and I will never be stingy in training. The pond of Lingqiu County and the Supervision Office is too small. As long as you do your best, I can give you a bigger world and everything you want!"
