Chapter 126: Chen Jie: No one can find the Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms? I don’t believe it!
Brain matter mixed with blood flowed on the ground. Nan Batian and Liu Laoguai looked at each other, both feeling very sorry.
I should have been more decisive in my attack just now, resulting in the old beggar's death and no way to use the Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms to interrogate him.
The two searched the old beggar's body but found nothing. It seemed that he did not carry the secret book with him. It made sense, how could he carry such a secret book with him?
Nan Batian and Liu Laoguai looked at Qimuge with slight disappointment.
Qimuge also looked at the dead body on the ground and said with pity: "What a pity, he was decisive in his action."
Nan Batian said: "Yes, this old fellow is so decisive. By the way, Commander Qimuge, where are the other Beggars' Sect disciples?"
Qimuge heard this and said, "Bring him here!"
After hearing this, a group of Beggars' Sect disciples were immediately brought over, led by none other than the Beggar's Sect's [Iron Beggar Zhou Peng].
It turned out that when Nan Batian and Old Monster Liu were fighting against the old beggar, Qimuge was not idle either. Instead, he led fifty black riders to directly block the retreating disciples of the Beggar Gang, and then controlled them with tough means.
Nan Batian and Liu Laoguai exchanged a glance, and Qimuge said, "I will take these people back for interrogation. As for the Beggars' Sect's territory, you can divide it up."
After hearing this, Nan Batian and Liu Laoguai looked at each other and were about to speak.
Qimuge smiled and said, "Don't worry, my master said that if we can get the secret manual of the Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms out of you through torture, we will copy a copy and give it to you, so you don't have to worry."
After hearing this, the two looked at each other, then clasped their fists and said, "Thank you, sir, for us."
Qimuge said, "Let's go, take all the people back and punish them severely."
"Yes!"
Fifty black knights left quickly, and Nan Batian and Liu Laoguai also left quickly, leaving only a suicide corpse on the spot.
It's a pity that one of the Thirteen Protectors of the generation died tragically outside the Mianshui County.
Half an hour later, another group of people passed by.
There are two carriages and three horses, with a group of younger brothers following behind. Yes, they are the people from the White Tiger Hall who are preparing to return to the city.
When everyone arrived outside the woods, one of the younger brothers noticed something unusual.
"Master, there is a dead body ahead!"
At this time, the younger brother who had been exploring the way ahead came forward to report immediately.
After hearing this, Peng Shizhong lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, stuck his head out and said, "Jiu Si, take someone to take a look."
"Yes."
Chen Jie responded, and then asked Zhou Chu to follow him, and they rushed towards the direction of the corpse. When they got closer and saw the body lying on the ground, they were stunned. Although his head was pounding, he could still tell that the man was an old beggar!
"Jiu Si is the old beggar from the Beggars' Sect!"
Zhou Chu was very surprised. The Thirteen Guardians had been in power in Mianshui County for more than ten years. The death of one of the Thirteen Guardians was no small matter!
Chen Jie's expression was also very solemn. He was also very surprised at the death of the old beggar.
After all, this is a ruthless man who can injure Peng Shizhong with one palm strike. Thinking of this, Chen Jie turned around and said, "Old Zhou, notify my foster father."
"Hey."
Zhou Chu immediately ran towards the carriage, and when he heard that the dead person was an old beggar, Peng Shizhong was also surprised.
"What! The old beggar is dead?"
Thinking of this, he stopped sitting in the carriage, opened the curtain, and with the help of Peng Fu, he came to the body of the old beggar.
At this time, Chen Jie also checked the old beggar's body.
It was discovered that the old beggar must have experienced a very brutal battle before his death, and there was fire palm power left on his body.
Moreover, traces of freezing were found on the broken arm. It is very likely that the arm was grabbed by someone, and the force of ice was applied to it, which directly froze the tendons and bones, and then it was broken by the final twist.
There was still a chill from the wound.
Looking up again, Chen Jie saw a lot of wide horse hoof prints not far away, and these horse hoof prints were of uniform size, obviously a uniform arrangement of war horses.
There is no other family in the entire Mianshui County that can have such a team of war horses, and that is the Black Cavalry from Darughachi Prefecture!
It seems that the Darughachi Palace is involved in this matter.
Just as he was thinking about it, Peng Shizhong came over and saw the old beggar's body on the ground.
His brows furrowed, and then he said, "Come on, Jiusi, let's go into the woods and take a look."
Chen Jie supported Peng Shizhong and walked into the woods, and the others followed behind. At this time, the three people who were recuperating in the car also lifted the curtain and looked at Chen Jie supporting Peng Shizhong.
Zheng Chuan said: "Hey, Boss, look..."
Feng Xuan took a look and said, "Haha, now that we are seriously injured, our foster father relies on Lao Wu, what's the big deal."
"Is it? lol……"
Zheng Chuan smiled, but it was a forced smile.
Feng Xuan was also looking at the two people walking into the woods. They really were a loving father and a filial son, but it was so glaring in his eyes.
Only Lu Rong looked indifferent.
Anyway, no matter who gets the White Tiger Hall in the future, it will never fall into his hands, so he is very calm.
At this time, Peng Shizhong took Chen Jie into the forest, only to see dozens of fallen trees in the forest. On the trees were still various traces of battle, such as traces of ice and traces of burning fire.
There are also traces of being broken by force.
This is the strength of a person who has reached the state of Hua Jin.
When a warrior reaches the stage of Hua Jin, he can call upon the internal force in his body, thereby producing changes in properties and forming various colors of Gang Qi.
What is internal force and what is qi?
The force that is accumulated but not released is called internal force, and the force that is released outside the body is called Gangqi.
To put it bluntly, this is actually the same thing, and there is no distinction between high and low.
It is just a power that the human body can call upon.
Peng Shizhong took Chen Jie to look around the forest, and then asked, "How is it? What do you think?"
Chen Jie was stunned and said, "The old beggar must have been beaten to death by a group of people. One of them was good at ice skills, and the other was good at fire skills."
"Well, do you know who these two are?"
Chen Jie thought for a moment and said, "My foster father once said that our Fishing Gang's leader Nan Batian's unique skill is the "Mysterious Ice Power", an ice-based skill, so I guess the one who made the move is probably the leader."
"Yeah, that's good, what about the other one?"
Chen Jie thought for a moment and said, "The other one, I think it should be Old Monster Liu."
"Oh, why is it him and not someone else?"
Chen Jie said: "Among the Thirteen Guardians, I have seen these few, but not many of them know fire-attributed skills. As for the ones I haven't seen, I don't know what kind of skills they know."
“But it doesn’t matter, because the process can be reversed from the results.”
“Oh, how to derive it?”
Peng Shizhong wanted to test Chen Jie, and Chen Jie said, "First of all, they ambushed the old beggar, so they must have something to ask for. Is it to annex the Beggars' Sect? Possibly, but it is more likely to be for the unique skills in the hands of the old beggar!"
"Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms."
Peng Shizhong said the name of the unique martial arts book.
"That's right, it's the Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms. We martial artists all know the importance of a good secret manual, not to mention a world-famous skill like the Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms. I think no one would not be envious, even our mysterious Darughachi!"
"Well, you mean that Darughachi was also involved in the ambush on the old beggar?"
Peng Shizhong looked at Chen Jie.
Chen Jie said, "Well, I wonder if godfather has noticed the horse hooves outside the woods?"
Peng Shizhong frowned. He really didn't pay much attention to this because he was just looking at the corpse at that time.
Chen Jie said: "There are a lot of horse hoof prints, and they are very regular, even the depth is almost the same. At first glance, they are standard horse hoof prints. Only the military would have such prints."
"Black Knight!"
Peng Shizhong nodded, and Chen explained: "Yes, it is the Black Cavalry. Since the Black Cavalry is involved, it means that Qimuge must be present, and Qimuge represents the Darughachi Mansion to the outside world!"
"So I have inferred that Darughachi participated in this operation, or even organized it."
Peng Shizhong nodded slightly, and then said: "Even if Daruhachi was involved, how can you determine that the other person is Weird Liu?"
Chen Jie said: "Nan Batian is a fierce tiger. The only ones who can hunt with the tiger are subordinates or another fierce tiger."
"Why?"
Peng Shizhong asked.
Chen Jie said: "Because if it is not a tiger of the same level as Nan Batian, then after the hunt, he will not be able to get the prey at all."
"That is the book of Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms."
"Foster father, if you were Nan Batian, and the person you teamed up with was another Thirteen Guardians who was weaker than you, and he got the secret book like Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms, would you give it to him?"
Peng Shizhong said: "No, the fewer people who know the secret book, the better. How could I cultivate a potential threat to myself?"
Chen Jie said: "So, only Old Monster Liu is sure to get the secret book from Nan Batian, and only then can we have the basis for cooperation."
"So I guess it's most likely Old Monster Liu. Of course, this is all under normal circumstances. It is not ruled out that some people have problems with their brains and do things that are clearly not in their interests."
Peng Shizhong nodded when he heard this.
Very satisfied with Chen Jie's wisdom.
Being able to deduce the general idea of a matter from the details is a very powerful ability, and my adopted son has it.
I have to say, I found a treasure.
Thinking of this, Peng Shizhong said: "Yes, this palm technique looks very similar to Liu Laoguai's "Fire Skill"
"Fire Power?"
Chen Jie looked at Peng Shizhong, and Peng Shizhong said, "That's right. 'Fiery Power' and 'Mysterious Ice Power' are two skills above the Hua Jin level. They were accidentally obtained by the former leaders of the Fishing Gang and the Cao Gang, and then passed down. They have become the current magical skills of the two gangs."
Chen Jie said: "Did the former gang leader get it accidentally?"
"Well, I don't know the details. I heard that it seems that you are related to the Mianshui walking dragon."
"Walking dragon?"
"Yes, but there hasn't been a dragon in the Mian River for nearly sixty years, so there's no way to verify whether it's true or not."
The two chatted as they walked out of the forest. Seeing the old beggar lying on the ground with no one to collect his body, Peng Shizhong couldn't help but feel sad and sighed, "He was once a famous figure. He shouldn't have been left exposed like this after his death. Jiusi, you stay here for a while and bury him."
Peng Shizhong walked towards the car and said, "By the way, Jiusi, come to Baihutang early tomorrow morning, and go back to have a good rest today."
"Yes, foster father."
Chen Jie responded, and Peng Shizhong got on the carriage, which quickly disappeared from the spot.
Zhou Chu stayed behind and called on the younger brothers of the fishing gang behind him to dig a pit and bury the body. While burying, Zhou Chu said, "What a pity. I don't know if the Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms was taken away by Nan Batian and his men."
Chen Jie looked at the dead body on the ground and said, "Probably not!"
“How come you see?”
Zhou Chu looked at Chen Jie, who pointed to the corpse and said, "Didn't you see it? He committed suicide. If he didn't want to take the secret into the coffin, would he have committed suicide?"
After hearing this, Zhou Chu understood instantly. Yes, if he was willing to hand it over, he might not die.
And in the end he actually chose to commit suicide, which shows that he would never hand over the things even if he died.
"What a pity, such a good thing was taken into the grave, no one can find it anymore. Sigh... that's the Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms!"
Zhou Chu felt extremely regretful.
Chen Jie remained calm upon hearing this, but he was thinking in his heart, no one can find it?
Some are absolute!
Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms, he was also very envious of it. Although his secret was taken into the grave by the old beggar, he had his own intelligence system. As long as he made good use of the intelligence system, especially the fifth piece of intelligence in the second-level intelligence system, it could be directional.
You can investigate this secret bit by bit.
This is my advantage!
Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms!
A gleam of light flashed in Chen Jie's eyes.
The pit was dug, and several fishermen threw the old beggar's body into the pit. In order to obtain more relevant information, Chen Jie actually picked up a shovel and personally covered the old beggar with two buckets of soil.
Finally, Chen Jie found a piece of wood and carved the words "Tomb of the Old Leader of the Beggars' Gang" on it!
Respecting the dead is an excellent virtue. What's more, he might even be able to obtain the "Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms" from him, which caused the entire Mian River to fall into turmoil.
After the burial, Zhou Chu stepped on the grave mound and then inserted the wooden inscription on the grave.
After finishing everything, Chen Jie and his party rode into the city on horseback.
This time they entered the city from the South City, and then found that the two streets controlled by the old beggar in the South City were in complete chaos. They were all people from the Fishing Gang and the Cao Gang, who were searching for Beggar Gang disciples on each street.
At the same time, the two groups rushed to the headquarters of the Beggars' Sect and turned it upside down, even digging out the manure pit, trying to find the secret book hidden by the old beggar.
But nothing was found, it could not be found at all.
Chen Jie witnessed the whole process and suddenly felt a little scared. Could it be that this old beggar didn't have any secret skills at all?
If I don't have the secret book, all my work would be in vain.
However, Chen Jie did not complain about the fate. As the saying goes, if I get it, I am lucky, if I lose it, it is my fate.
Although the Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms is one of the most advanced martial arts in the world, it is not necessary for me to possess it. Of course, it would be best if I could obtain it.
However, it was obvious that Nan Batian and Old Monster Liu really wanted to get the secret book, and they began a frantic search on the two streets in South City.
Similarly, the king of this city, Darughaci, also wanted to obtain this secret book.
At this time, in the dungeon of Darughachi Mansion.
"Ah~"
The red-hot iron was pressed hard on the body of [Ivy Liu Feng], causing Liu Feng to scream in pain.
On the other side, two jailers used whips dipped in salt water to whip Iron Beggar Zhou Peng fiercely. After a while, Zhou Peng's whole body was covered in blood from the whip.
In addition, there were some elite disciples of the Beggars' Sect who were suffering various tortures at this time.
Qimugege drank tea leisurely and watched them carry out the execution.
They never show mercy to the Han people.
Qimuge took a sip of tea and said, "Is there anything I can tell you? Just tell me where the Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms are, and you won't have to suffer this punishment. You can also get a reward from our master. Do you hear me?"
Qimuge stood up, walked up to Liu Feng and said, "You are seriously injured, tell me."
"I have no idea!"
Liu Feng said through gritted teeth.
After hearing this, Qimuge waved his hand, and a jailer brought a red-hot iron. Qimuge took it and shook it in front of Liu Feng's eyes and said, "Go ahead."
"I really do not know."
"Dishonest!"
As he said that, he pressed the soldering iron hard on Liu Feng's face. Liu Feng immediately screamed in pain, and at the same time, the aroma of barbecue filled the whole room.
……
The same thing happened to the Fishermen's Gang and the Water Transport Gang. They also captured a group of Beggars' Gang disciples and tortured them to extract the whereabouts of the Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms.
Under such intense interrogation, they actually got some useful information.
Someone said that he had seen the old helmsman before and saw that he had a piece of paper in his hand, which seemed to record the Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms. However, he saw it later and no one knew whether it was hidden there by the old helmsman.
After hearing this news, the two major gangs and the Darughachi Mansion became even more excited.
At this time, there were rumors in the underworld of Mianshui that the old beggar hid the secret book in a very secret place before his death.
And the person who can obtain the Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms will be the next king of Mianshui County.
At one time, more people in the martial arts world were drawn into the search for the secret book, and the two things that were most discussed in the entire Mianshui County in the past two days were:
First, where is the old beggar’s Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms hidden?
Second, will Chen Jiusi be the future successor of Baihu Hall?
For a time, the entire Mianshui County was discussing these two things.
Chen Jie did not participate in these things. He now had three very important things to accomplish.
First: Investigate the cause of death of the fourth old scholar in white, Deng Guangming. Peng Shizhong was right. At that time, the White Tiger Hall and the Beggars' Gang were already at loggerheads, and they did not care about one or two lives at all. The old beggar denied that the Beggars' Gang killed Deng Guangming, which only showed that they did not want to be blamed.
Therefore, it is highly likely that the person who killed Deng Guangming was someone else.
So who is this person?
Deng Guangming was very good to Chen Jie, and took care of him both in gang matters and in life. It was only right that he should help Deng Guangming find the real murderer and avenge him.
Second: that is to find a way to find the place where the old beggar hid the secret book. The Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms is indeed very tempting.
Third: I am going to try to take over the business of Baihutang. My three brothers are seriously injured. This is the best time for me to contact Baihutang.
Moreover, after the battle of Nanhu, his reputation has increased rapidly. He must hurry and turn his reputation into strength. If he misses this golden period, it will not be easy for him to take power again.
Chen Jie summarized what needed to be done next.
Then he returned to the big vegetable market, his own home.
After a day's delay, it was already getting dark.
When Chen Jie returned, he found that Su Yunjin had already prepared dinner for him.
As soon as Su Yunjin saw Chen Jie coming back, she immediately came up to him and without saying a word, took Chen Jie into the bedroom.
Chen Jie said, "It's still daylight, madam, what are you doing?"
Su Yunjin said: "Why are you so slow? You have this wound."
Chen Jie then remembered that he still had wounds on his body, but he had too many things to do today and hadn't taken care of them.
After entering the house, Chen Jie asked where Ruirui was.
Su Yunjin said: "She is playing at Sister Hua's place. Sister Hua is teaching her how to stand still."
"Oh."
Chen Jie responded, and then Su Yunjin brought over some clean water and some medicine for wounds, saying, "This is the medicine Sister Hua gave me. She said it's very useful."
Chen Jie said: "Oh, then I really thanked my sister-in-law!"
"Husband, take off your coat and I will help you apply the medicine." Chen Jie nodded and took off his coat. The coat was easy to take off, but when he took off his underwear, Chen Jie found that the clothes were stuck to his skin.
I didn't feel anything if I didn't move, but as soon as I moved, I felt a piercing pain.
Su Yunjin immediately said distressedly, "Husband, don't move."
As she spoke, she came over and tried to pull it off, but found that it was already stuck to the skin. Then she said, "Husband, wait a moment."
She quickly found a pair of large scissors and cut off the excess parts of the clothes, leaving only the pieces of clothes near the wound on her chest.
Only then did she see clearly the wound on Chen Jie's body. She saw that the wound started from her husband's right rib and went to the shoulder. The wound was very deep and the flesh was somewhat turned outward.
Seeing this scene, she couldn't help but burst into tears.
I just gritted my teeth to prevent the tears from falling.
At this time, she took the basin and wanted to use the water in the basin to moisten the wound, so as to slowly tear off the scraps of cloth that had stuck together the scab.
Chen Jie said: "Don't use water, find some wine... Forget it, let's just use water."
Chen Jie originally wanted Su Yunjin to get some liquor, after all, antivirus still depends on strong liquor. But then Chen Jie remembered that there is no strong liquor in this world, only rice wine.
Rice wine has a low alcohol content and contains sugar, which is nutrients for bacteria. It may not only fail to kill bacteria, but may also nourish them.
So Chen Jie asked Su Yunjin to use warm water to help him tear off the scraps of cloth that were stuck to the wound.
At the same time, I thought that I should make a batch of liquor myself when I have time. Drinking it is secondary, but it is mainly used as medical alcohol.
Who can avoid getting hurt when living in the underworld? Experts have good physical fitness and internal strength to protect them, so they are not a problem.
However, many lower-level disciples face tetanus after being injured. If they have medical alcohol for timely disinfection, more lives can be saved.
In addition, Chen Jie had experienced various strong liquors in his previous life, and he also liked the taste of white wine.
You can use it to make alcohol and keep it for drinking at the same time, so why not?
But that's all in the future. There's no alcohol available now. Fortunately, Feng San, the Golden Knife, protected his sword very well, and it didn't rust and turn into a tetanus blade!
Coupled with Chen Jie's strength in the Iron Bone Realm, there is naturally a force in his body to help him heal his wounds.
At the same time, this force should also have an antibacterial effect.
I have never heard of any iron-boned boss in the martial arts world who died of tetanus.
Therefore, it can be deduced that this internal force should have the effect of disinfection and sterilization.
Su Yunjin took a warm towel and gently placed it on Chen Jie's wound. The stimulated Chen Jie grinned and took a breath of cold air.
hiss~
Seeing Chen Jie in pain, Su Yunjin asked, "Husband, did it hurt you?"
Chen Jie said: "It's okay."
Su Yunjin said: "I will be more careful."
Chen Jie: "It's okay, be bold."
"Ah."
After hearing this, Su Yunjin concentrated on using a towel to wipe the blood scabs on the wound, and then tore off the scraps of cloth bit by bit. However, the blood scabs had not formed in some places, and blood immediately flowed down, which frightened Su Yunjin so much that he became helpless.
Chen Jie smiled and said, "It's okay, just a little blood."
Su Yunjin put the towel in the copper basin and soaked it thoroughly. The entire copper basin was stained red with blood.
Even though she was very scared, she still persisted. Looking at the sweat on the tip of her nose due to nervousness, Chen Jie couldn't help laughing.
This girl looks really interesting.
Chen Jie reached out to wipe the sweat off the young lady's face, while the young lady continued to carefully tear off the clothes on the scab-covered areas for Chen Jie.
Blood flowed down Chen Jie's belly, and the young lady's hands were shaking.
Chen Jie kept encouraging him.
Finally, when the last piece of cloth was torn off, Su Yunjin breathed a long sigh of relief, then took out the golden wound medicine and carefully applied it to Chen Jie's wound.
This golden wound medicine is really good. When applied on the wound, the whole wound feels cool and comfortable.
After applying the golden wound medicine, the wife brought some gauze and wrapped it around Chen Jie layer by layer.
The wound was bandaged quickly.
Su Yunjin wiped the sweat from her forehead. Under the afterglow of the setting sun outside, she looked exceptionally beautiful.
Seeing this, Chen Jie couldn't help but hold his wife's waist.
The wife was startled and looked at Chen Jie and said, "Husband, the wound has just been bandaged, it won't work."
Chen Jie said: "What's wrong? How could my husband be incompetent?"
As he said that, he actually picked up his wife by the waist. The wife was terrified and said, "Husband, be careful of the wound."
Chen Jie said: "It's okay."
"Husband, it's still daylight!"
"See more clearly."
"Husband, the door is not locked!"
Chen Jie said: "It's inserted..."
"what……"
The setting sun shines through the window onto the bed in the room, and birds are chirping outside the room.
Everything is so harmonious. If it weren't for the swaying curtains and the creaking wooden bed, perhaps it would be even more harmonious.
That's true.
A green plum flower overshadows a crabapple tree, but the crabapple tree lets the wind blow the waves.
The wind blows and the clouds disperse, love is strong, let's go to Wushan together to meet the phoenix!
……
"elder sister……"
In the evening, Xiao Douding finally had enough fun and followed Hua Sanniang back to his home, but found that there was no one in the yard.
Hua Sanniang frowned and looked around, discovering that there was nothing unusual in the yard, so it seemed that no one had attacked.
So where could these two people go?
"Rui Rui is back!"
The exhausted lady woke up immediately after hearing the call.
Chen Jie hugged his wife and said, "It's okay, sister-in-law is helping to watch over you."
Su Yunjin said nervously: "But if we do this..."
"Sister, sister..."
When the little kid found that no one was at home, he became anxious and shouted everywhere.
When he arrived at the bedroom door, he leaned in and looked inside and asked, "Sister, brother-in-law, are you in there?"
Su Yunjin's face was as red as an apple. He was caught in bed with his own sister. This...
Chen Jie said naturally, "Oh, Ruirui is back. Wait outside while your sister treats my wound."
"Sister-in-law, please help keep an eye on it."
Hua Sanniang heard the voice and asked, "Why are you treating the wound and locking the door?"
Chen explained: "It is really indecent to be shirtless."
"is it?"
Hua Sanniang looked into the house suspiciously: "Yunjin, are you okay?"
"Ah, it's okay, Sister Hua, I'll be right out."
As she spoke, Su Yunjin climbed up, sat on Chen Jie and began to put on her clothes one by one, but slowly she suddenly discovered something terrible and immediately jumped up from Chen Jie.
“I’m going to die.”
The lady glared at Chen Jie angrily.
Chen Jie said aggrievedly: "I didn't do anything."
"You...you will do bad things!"
Su Yunjin was speaking as she put on her clothes. Chen Jie, on the other hand, simply pulled up his pants. He still had wounds on his body, so he just put on a simple coat.
The door was opened and Su Yunjin came out carrying a basin of blood.
Ruirui looked at the blood in the basin, looked at Chen Jie with concern and said, "Brother-in-law, you are bleeding so much, does it hurt?"
Chen Jie said: "It doesn't hurt."
Ruirui said, "But my brother-in-law was so powerful today that he killed the bad guy with just one shot."
Chen Jie said: "How do you know he is a bad guy?"
"Anyone who goes against my brother-in-law is a bad guy!"
After hearing Ruirui's words, Chen Jie was stunned, then he touched the little girl's head and said, "You are really smart."
Su Yunjin poured out the blood. Hua Sanniang looked at Su Yunjin and said, "Can you two be more careful?"
"what?"
"Take care of yourself. You're injured like that, and you still..."
Su Yunjin blushed instantly, but quickly said, "Sister, I'm really treating my wounds in there."
"Well, your wound, his wound?"
"I……"
Su Yunjin was instantly speechless, her face flushed with shame, and she wished she could find a hole to crawl into. She was so embarrassed.
Seeing Su Yunjin like this, Hua Sanniang laughed immediately: "Haha... my silly sister, there is nothing to be embarrassed about. It's your own man, your own home, you can do whatever you want. You are just too shy, be careful not to be defeated by the little vixen outside."
"Sister, there are not so many little vixens."
Hua Sanniang said, "Okay, I'm leaving now."
Hua Sanniang pointed out that Su Yunjin was about to leave, but Su Yunjin said, "Sister, eat first."
At this time, Xiao Douding also ran over and said, "Sister Hua, please stay and have dinner."
Chen Jie also said: "Sister-in-law, stay and try our Yunjin craftsmanship."
After hearing this, Hua Sanniang said, "Okay, I have a cage of crabs there, I'll go back and bring it back."
"Wow, crab, yay~"
When the little kid heard about eating crabs, he ran around the yard excitedly.
Chen Jie looked at the family like this and smiled happily.
Isn't it for your family to live in peace that you work so hard? That's good enough.
In this way, the family sat together and had dinner. After the meal, Chen Jie went to bed early. He was indeed a little tired after practicing martial arts day and night in the past few days.
And because Chen Jie was injured, Su Yunjin slept with Ruirui today.
Chen Jie had already experienced the bliss of life during the day, so he reluctantly agreed.
In this way, Chen Jie slept until midnight, but was still awakened by the prompt sound of the intelligence system.
[Today's intelligence has been updated (level 2)]
[1. Today you participated in the Nanhu gambling fight and obtained intelligence. Your amazing performance made the underworld of Mianshui notice you. Now countless people are saying that you are the future successor of the White Tiger Hall. And because your spear skills are so terrifying that you can chase lives and take souls, you are nicknamed [Soul-Chasing Spear] in the underworld. It has been recognized by many people! ]
[2. Today you met Feng Xuan and obtained information. Feng Xuan was very jealous of your performance today. At the same time, he was upset and dissatisfied with you for threatening his position as the successor to the White Tiger Hall.]
[3. Today you mentioned the death of Deng Guangming. We have obtained information that there are many doubts about Deng Guangming’s death, but he was checking the accounts before his death.]
[4. Today you met Qimuge and obtained information. Qimuge is the confidant of Darughachi. He is very powerful and good at using swordsmanship. He is famous for his quick swordsmanship. His strength is not weaker than that of Nan Batian.]
[5. Because you have thought about the Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms many times today and obtained information, the old beggar copied the Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms on a piece of paper after obtaining it from the headquarters, and moved it to a place that has nothing to do with the Beggars' Sect overnight and hid it. This place is not in Mianshui County! ]
Looking at the updated intelligence, Chen Jie opened his eyes and carefully savored the information of today's intelligence.
The amount of intelligence information today is still quite large.
The first one is the follow-up impact of today’s gambling fight. Jianghu actually gave himself a call.
[Soul-Chasing Spear] The deadly soul-chasing spear sounds very powerful, but Chen Jie is not happy at all.
It is said that the louder the nickname, the weaker the strength.
This [Soul-Chasing Gun] sounds intimidating, but it's actually just that simple. It's very much like the gangsters who serve as background characters for the protagonist in martial arts novels.
For example, in order to highlight the strength of a certain swordsman, they might say that he defeated twelve masters in a row, including the Soul-Chasing Spear...
Well, my martial arts journey has just begun, and I still need to work hard!
However, this kind of underworld nickname is not under your control. It is mostly given by underworld people based on your characteristics, and then spread on a large scale in the underworld.
For example, Feng Xuan's nickname is "Eight-Faced Buddha"
What is Eight-Faced Buddha? It means a person who is good at dealing with people in all kinds of ways. In addition, Eight-Faced Buddha also means the second-in-command of a gang.
For example, Zheng Chuan's [Iron-faced Tiger] describes a person who dares to fight and kill, and is decisive in doing things. Another name is Iron-faced, which describes a person who is ruthless and ruthless!
Another example is Zhou Chu's [Black-eyed Bear], well, let's not talk about it...
Now Chen Jie has begun to establish a reputation in the martial arts world. Of course, his reputation will change as his status improves and his martial arts skills change.
For example, Peng Shizhong’s nickname used to be “Brick Opener”, but after the Thirteen Guardians, it was changed to “Fisherman”.
Then came the second piece of information, which said that Feng Xuan was still brooding over his rise in the White Tiger Hall. Chen Jie could understand this. After all, Chen Jie's rise meant that Feng Xuan's power was slowly shrinking.
It would be strange if he didn't have any ideas, but it doesn't matter.
Chen Jie had anticipated this a long time ago. If he wanted to get promoted, he would definitely have to offend people. After all, there was only so much meat. If you eat one more bite, others would eat one less bite. Would they be willing to do that?
But then again, what can you do if you don't want to?
Just because you, Feng Xuan, are still grudge against me, would I not get involved in power? That's impossible!
Chen Jie will not put his life and death in the hands of others!
So no matter whether it is Feng Xuan, Zheng Chuan, or Lu Rong, he will not give in. He must fight for what he should fight for!
Of course, you also have to be careful that they don't trip you up.
Continue to look at the intelligence.
The fourth piece of information is an introductory piece of information. The Qimugege we met today is actually a master who is not inferior to Nan Batian. What’s more important is that he is just a servant of Darughachi of Mianshui County. A servant has such strength.
This Mulan man is really terrifyingly strong.
Moreover, they have cavalry troops like the Black Cavalry under their command. No wonder the entire Mianshui County respects them!
Even Nan Batian and Old Monster Liu have to follow their lead!
It seems that I also need to be careful not to have conflicts with the Darughachi Mansion when I am weak.
Thinking of this, Chen Jie turned his attention to the third piece of information.
This piece of information is of great use to me. It mentions one thing, which is related to the death of the fourth brother Deng Guangming.
How did Deng Guangming die? I received an order from Peng Shizhong to investigate. I didn't have any direction before, but now I have a specific direction, which is the account book.
That’s right, Deng Guangming was obviously checking the accounts when he died.
Whose interests will be affected by the audit?
Why must Deng Guangming die?
Did Deng Guangming find something he shouldn’t have found?
Thinking in this way, Chen Jie knew a specific direction. He would check the account book himself tomorrow and he should be able to find something.
Thinking of this, Chen Jie felt relieved. This intelligence system was indeed useful. It directly pointed out the direction of something that he had no clue about before, allowing him to avoid many detours.
Thinking of this, Chen Jie looked at the last and most important one.
The whereabouts of the Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms!
Looking at the fifth piece of information, it was actually not very useful, but it gave Chen Jie unlimited confidence, because there really was a rubbing plate for the Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms.
Chen Jie was not afraid that this thing was hidden secretly.
What he was afraid of was that the old beggar had memorized it all by heart, and if he didn't have the rubbing plate of the Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms, how would he find it? Even if there was an intelligence system to remind him at all times, he would not be able to find it at all.
But now it’s different. This information tells me that there is such a rubbing paper.
Moreover, it was hidden outside the city, a place that had nothing to do with the Beggars' Sect.
That’s enough. Chen Jie can lock this information and keep refreshing the fifth piece of information.
If one piece of information cannot pinpoint the location, then use ten or twenty pieces of information.
As long as he is willing to refresh and wait, the secret book of Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms will not escape, and Chen will be awakened sooner or later.
And the more well-hidden this place is, the more unexpected it is, the better.
This way no one else can find it, so in the end it will be yours, right?
Thinking of this, Chen Jie felt happy.
Next, I only have to do three things: refresh the information and lock the location of the secret book of [Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms].
Second, check the account book and find out the real murderer who killed the fourth brother.
Third: Attend the morning meeting of the White Tiger Hall tomorrow, obtain the rights of the White Tiger Hall, and realize your own ambitions.
Now that the goal is clear, the next step is to achieve it.
Just like that, daybreak soon came. After Chen Jie had breakfast, he heard someone knocking on the door. When he opened the door, it turned out to be Peng Fu.
Peng Fu said, "Fifth Master, the hall master asked me to take you into the White Tiger Hall."
Chen Jie looked at Peng Fu and said, "Thank you, Uncle Fu."
