Chapter 82 Doubt
Three poles in the sun.
The cold wind was blowing, but the ice and snow still did not melt. The corpses everywhere were frozen together with the snow, retaining their last appearance last night.
A large number of officers surrounded the headquarter of the Villain Gang. Outside the central courtyard, which was littered with corpses, there were many officers wearing blue clothes and even officers wearing dark green uniforms.
They come from the Urban Health Department of Xicheng District.
Following the corpses scattered all the way to the west, after crossing a few hundred meters, lying on the side of the road was the corpse of the leader of the Evil Gang, Zhang He.
Next to the corpse, a man in white uniforms stood there with several people in dark green uniforms. The man in white uniforms was He Guangzong, the chief commissioner of the Xil City District City Health Department. He was The third generation of the He family belongs to the Guang generation, which is one generation higher than He Mingxuan's Ming generation.
But at this moment, the chief police officer of the West, who was superior to He Mingxuan in terms of power and status, had a solemn expression.
Sword wound, one blow kills...
He Guangzong leaned over to check the only wound on Zhang He's body, and then looked at the situation nearby, with deep doubts in his eyes.
This sword is undoubtedly the power of artistic conception, and judging from the wound, it should be the Thousand Winds Artistic Realm under the Qiankun lineage among the two attributes of Qiankun and Five Elements.
But the problem is.
Looking at the entire Yucheng, there are only a few people who have mastered Qianfeng's artistic conception. Most of them are not related to Zhang He. I really can't think of any one of them who wants to kill Zhang He.
But if it's not those characters, who are they?
He Guangzong pondered for a long time and couldn't figure it out. Finally he shook his head and said, Just clean up all the corpses.
Sir, the murderer...
That's it for now, no need to check anymore.
He Guangzong waved his hand.
A being who mastered the artistic conception killed Zhang He. Whether Zhang He accidentally offended him or for other reasons, there is no need to continue to investigate. A mere Zhang He is far from worth such a big fight.
…
Nancheng District.
Located in a restaurant in the central district.
Chen Mu was sitting opposite someone, drinking. The person sitting opposite him had white temples and was much older, but he was Xu Feng, the former commissioner of Wutongli.
Mr. Chen is a very talented person. I heard earlier that the chief police officer wanted Mr. Chen to take over Wutongli. I was worried that the mess in Wutongli would easily get in the way. I never thought that Mr. Chen would clean up Wutongli in just a few months. It’s a brand new look, and I, an old man, am very ashamed.”
Xu Feng picked up his wine glass, toasted to Chen Mu, and sighed: Nowadays, there are disasters everywhere, and Wutong is the least affected. It is all the fault of Mr. Chen. If Mr. Chen had taken charge of the Wutong area earlier, maybe Wutong would have been there earlier. become better.
Chen Mu responded with a calm expression: Master Xu is ridiculous. Earlier, I was just a commoner. Even if I was in charge of a region, I couldn't do anything. Now I just happen to meet him and plan my own affairs in my position.
After the news spread yesterday that he had manipulated six people to kill Sha Xiangtian, today at noon Xu Feng took the initiative to invite the former commissioner.
Since he took over the post of Wutongli Chaosi, although Xu Feng had arranged all aspects for him and basically ordered his own manpower one by one, but other than that, he had not met him again. Maybe he still He had some other thoughts about taking over Chasi at a young age, but after all, they were all Xu Hongyu's subordinates, and they still did things as instructed.
It was not until a few days after Chen Mu took office that Thunder took action to destroy the Zheng family. Xu Feng suddenly changed his view of Chen Mu, the new chief minister, and realized that Chen Mu was not an ordinary person who was forced to take over by Xu Hongyu at a young age. He is a man of strength, courage and skill.
Then yesterday, all six gangs were frightened, Sha Xiangtian died, and the Nan family took the initiative to provide taels of silver for disaster relief... Various developments made Xu Feng completely convinced of Chen Mu as his successor, so he took the initiative to invite him. A banquet not only means making friends, but also apologizing for past doubts.
Chen Mu didn't have any objections to Xu Feng. After all, Xu Feng might have complained about him taking over as Chasi earlier, but he didn't do anything to hinder him in the process of taking over, and he fully cooperated with him and handed over all the men and horses. , only then did Shang Qing wait for everyone to follow suit on the first day.
Master Chen, there is no need to be humble. Now all the orders and prohibitions in Wutong are visible to all parties.
Xu Feng spoke with a smile, and then lowered his voice and said: However, we must also be careful of the He family... Mr. Xu is out hunting monsters now. It is inevitable that there will be no more trouble in these days.
Thank you, Mr. Xu, for reminding me. I will pay attention.
Chen Mu thanked Xu Feng.
Xu Hongyu is away, which is indeed a suitable time for the He family to cause trouble. However, the disaster has been lingering in recent times and there has been no movement. But now Chen Mu is actually not afraid of the He family secretly causing trouble. If he dares to make any fuss about him, he must do it. Be prepared to have your claws chopped off.
Xu Feng nodded and said: Well, if anything happens, I can also help. Although I am no longer in charge, I can still swing the sword a few times.
Speaking of this, he paused, then suddenly remembered something, and said: Speaking of which, the He family may have to deal with things in the west recently. I heard that last night, the evil swordsman Zhang He of the Evil Gang, together with several deputy gang leaders, , hundreds of gang members all died violently, I don’t know who they offended, and now there are only two or three big cats and kittens left...
After listening to Xu Feng's words, Chen Mu looked calm and picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
Xu Feng shook his head and said: Although this evil gang is not a powerful force of the He family, it basically follows the He family in the west. It gives a lot of money to the He family every year. Now it offends some big shot and collapses overnight, always in one place. It takes time to clean up the mess.”
Xu Feng couldn't help but sigh for a while.
Gang of villains.
This is not an ordinary force. It is entrenched in the west. At first, it even dared to reach out to cross the border and fight Xu Hongyu. Although it finally retreated, Xu Hongyu could not do anything to the other party.
But now it was destroyed overnight without making a sound. It has to be said that in this outer city, even if you become a figure like the evil sword Zhang He, with a illustrious reputation, he can only be wiped out in front of the real big shots. I just don't know who killed Zhang He and the Gang of Evil this time, but it must have been the big shots in the inner city.
The evil gang usually opens gambling houses and just buys and sells by force. Now in the year of disaster, they are trying to drive up prices and steal people's wealth. It is not a pity to die.
Chen Mu said calmly.
good.
Xu Feng also smiled and said: The evil gang really deserves to die, die well, drink and drink.
After drinking for three rounds, Xu Feng began to talk under the influence of wine. For example, when he mentioned that Chen Mu was not married yet, he said that he had a distant niece who was pretty and lovely and could marry Chen Mu and be his side wife.
Chen Mu's martial arts training has already reached the level of Yijin, and there are no taboos. However, his strength and status are increasing day by day, and his vision is different from before. He has encountered similar attempts many times, and he has basically rejected them one by one.
Just when I wanted to say something.
Suddenly a familiar voice came into the private room.
What are you two talking about?
Chen Mu and Xu Feng each moved their expressions. They looked sideways and saw a beautiful figure pushing open the door and coming in with a slight smile.
Xu Feng was slightly surprised, then he raised his hands and said, Why is Miss Ning here?
The person who came was none other than Xiao He.
However, Xu Feng treated Xiao He with much more respect. On the one hand, Xiao He was Xu Hongyu's personal maid. On the other hand, Xiao He had now entered the level of Yi Jin, and her status was different from the past.
Just passing by.
Xiao He walked over lightly and said, How is Mr. Xu's health lately?
Xu Feng leaned forward and said, Thanks to Sir Xu, I have been living well since leaving office, and the accumulated hidden wounds have healed, but I am no longer fit to compete with others.
Xiaohe nodded and said: Mr. Xu has worked hard for many years and will rest and recuperate in Nancheng. Now there is no need to worry about what happened in Wutong.
Xu Feng smiled and said: If I had known that Mr. Chen could do anything, I should have abdicated in favor of others... Miss Ning has something to do with Mr. Chen? Then I will take the first step and ask Miss Ning for your favor another day.
Said.
Xu Feng then retreated, leaving Chen Mu and Xiao He behind.
Chen Mu glanced at Xiao He with some suspicion. Although this place was very close to the City Guard General Department, it was a coincidence that he happened to pass by.
You've been here a long time ago?
Nothing happened. I heard that you and Xu Feng were here, so I came over to take a look.
Xiaohe blinked and said, Miss said not long ago that she would take you to see sister Yu Ru when she comes back.
Chen Mu said thoughtfully: Yu Ru...she and Yue'er seem to get along well. I saw her when I went to the inner city a few days ago.
There was a little more color in Xiao He's eyes and he said, Look at how pretty sister Yu Ru is. How about asking her to propose marriage for you next time she comes back?
not so good.
Chen Mu picked up the wine cup and took a sip, and said: Yu Ru and Yue'er practiced martial arts in the inner courtyard together. How old are they now?
Yu Ru is slightly smaller than Chen Yue. Although she is indeed pretty and cute, she is a bit small in every sense. Moreover, Qi and blood have a certain influence on crossing the Yijin threshold. If you want to be successful in martial arts , it is better to keep your Qi and maintain your health before changing tendons.
Listening to Chen Mu's words, Xiao He's heart suddenly jumped.
She looked at Chen Mu carefully for a moment, and then suddenly said: The evil swordsman Zhang Xi of the evil gang in the west died last night, you heard it.
Well, he is full of evil and deserved to die.
Chen Mu responded casually.
Xiao He looked at Chen Mu suspiciously, and then said, I heard that he died under Qianfeng's artistic conception and was killed by a single blow.
Well, that's great.
Chen Mu picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
Xiao He looked at Chen Mu and tilted his head, and said: The evil gang has been destroyed. Although it is in the west, but it is close, there will still be some waves. Just deal with it normally.
good.
Chen Mu nodded.
After talking a few more words about the disaster, Chen Mu got up and left with Xiao He, and separated in front of a street.
Xiao He looked at Chen Mu's leaving figure with a little suspicion in his eyes.
is it him?
It's not that she was a bit whimsical, but Zhang He's death was unexpected and sudden, and he died from a blow from Qianfeng's artistic conception. There were only a few people in Yucheng who mastered Qianfeng's artistic conception, and none of them were up to par.
But in the end, Xiao He shook her head. Although she had a strange feeling, the artistic conception... was still too outrageous.
After all, Chen Mu probably hasn't come into contact with the fundamental artistic conception of the Xunfeng lineage yet, so how could he understand the artistic conception out of thin air.
