At the same time that Liu Cheng rushed to Ningcheng with the special operations company and the remnant army, three teams had already arrived near Ningcheng.

No one would have thought that a small Ning City would become so "lively" because of a small Cai Zhong.

A regiment of Zhang Haipeng, a squadron of Kumazaburo Okamoto, and a secret squad under Wang Wei had already appeared at their designated positions, but none of them acted rashly.

Almost at the same time, dozens of unfamiliar faces appeared in the streets and alleys of Ningcheng at the same time, which made the people in the city worried, frightened, and uneasy.

Now what happened in Caifu is no secret in Ningcheng, just stop someone on the street and ask, and the other party can talk about it with great interest for a long time.

Cai Zhong's death was a great joy for the people of Ningcheng, so although no one saw it with their own eyes, as long as someone asked, they would add fuel and vinegar to what they had heard.

In just a few days, there have been five or six completely different versions of the chaotic battle in Caifu.

However, these different versions have one thing in common, that is, a group of green forest righteous people became angry after learning about Cai Zhong's various bad deeds, and led a group of men to wash Cai's mansion in blood to eliminate harm for the people.

The most outrageous thing is the version of the storytelling in the tavern, which made up the identity of the archetypal character Liu Cheng as a seven-killing star, and took a group of stars to eliminate violence and peace in troubled times.

A storyteller's mouth tells the world everything.

Thirty-six Tiangang and seventy-two earth demons, under the leadership of the Seven Killing Stars, killed the righteous path and washed the turbidity with blood, and vividly described a scuffle for gold as a simple version of the Water Margin.

Twenty miles west of Ningcheng, the third regiment sent by Zhang Haipeng was hidden in a forest.

Zhao Yuzhi almost became angry after listening to the news brought back by his subordinates.

Zhao Yuzhi didn't know much about the dead Cai Zhong, he only knew that the old boy was slippery and had a heart.

As for where the gold is now, the people who went to Ningcheng to inquire about the news really didn't gain anything at all.

There are also different opinions about the situation of the scuffle in Caifu, some say that they used guns, some say they used knives, and some even say that those corpses are all bruised, and they are poisoned to death at first glance.

Anyway, there was everything, but no one mentioned the gold.

As for Deng Jiamin and the third battalion, there is no news.

Zhao Yuzhi waved his hand at the men, signaling them to leave, and he returned to the tent, sitting on a chair made of ammunition boxes and silent.

The third group came here two days ago, but until now they have not received any news about the gold, which makes Zhao Yuzhi have a headache.

Before he came, he made a package ticket with Zhang Haipeng, saying that he would definitely bring back a lot of gold.

But until now, the gold has disappeared, but traces of the Japanese army have been found.

He didn't take the initiative to go over to say hello, not wanting to get into trouble because of this.

Although he came on Zhang Haipeng's orders, the Japanese nominally had no right to order him.

Not to mention a squadron, even if Kumazaburo Okamoto came in person, he did not have the right to transfer the three regiments.

Moreover, in terms of rank, he was on the same level as Kumazaburo Okamoto, and the strength of a regiment was several hundred more than a brigade of the Japanese army.

But if Kumasaburo Okamoto really wants him to do something, Zhao Yuzhi really doesn't dare to refuse directly, this is the difference between a master and a slave.

Therefore, since the Japanese did not take the initiative to come to him, he naturally pretended not to know, so as not to cause trouble.

At the same time, in the small courtyard of a blue brick house in the southeast corner of Ningcheng, an elderly man was half-lying on a rattan chair drinking tea.

His expression was visibly nervous, and the hand holding the teacup trembled slightly.

On the chair next to him sat an old lady with a sad face, looking at him and sighing.

The old man glared at the old lady impatiently, and said angrily:

"I said don't you sigh here, okay? I'm not dead yet, are you in a hurry to remarry? ”

The old lady pushed the old man with a bitter face, and her tone was full of worry:

"Master, when is this, are you still in the mood to talk about this useless? In the past two days, a lot of people have come to the city, I'm afraid it's for the Cai family's business, what if I find you? ”

The old man gritted his teeth and waved his hand:

"What else can I do? We're all this age, we can't run, except for stiffness, there is no other trick! ”

The old lady suddenly thought of something, lowered her voice and said:

"Then let's just ask three questions and don't know, don't we just bite to death and don't know what?"

The old man threw the teacup on the table, glared at him, and said:

"Don't know? You don't have a head when you say that! The eyes of the neighbors are watching, can anyone know that I have been to Cai Mansion? And it came back after all the people in it died, saying that I don't know if it was not looking for death? ”

Before the words fell, two figures suddenly climbed in from the courtyard wall that was high for one person, and as soon as their feet landed, the muzzle of the gun in their hands was aimed at the old couple.

The old lady's face turned white at once, and she trembled and tried to stand up, but her legs refused to obey her.

The two men came close in a few steps, and one of them said to the old man in a deep voice:

"Let's not talk nonsense, what do you know about gold?"

The old man was about to speak, but the man rushed to say:

"You can think about it before you speak, if this matter is clear, we don't have anything, I have to give you some benefits; If I don't say it, then I'll have to send you two old things into the coffin! ”

The old man swallowed a mouthful of saliva, turned his head to look at his frightened old wife on the side, and let out a long sigh:

"Okay, I'll say anything."

Then, the old man told all the stories about what happened after he was brought to Cai's mansion.

In fact, it is very simple, just let him identify the authenticity of gold.

But these are earth-shattering events for those two.

If what the old man said was true, it meant that the person above them had made a bad decision.

Even if you do find the gold in the end, it is likely that the cost will be greater than the gain.

However, they are not sure how much real gold there is, so they must ask the upper authorities for instructions first.

The two looked at each other, and almost at the same time choked the old couple's necks.

After two minutes, both old men stopped breathing.

There is an eternal truth in this, that is, no matter what the circumstances, people must ensure the value of their lives.

Otherwise, the day you lose your value will be your last day at the same time.

In today's society, you can't lose your life casually, but when you lose your value, everything you have is about to cease to exist......
