Chapter 14: Locking the Target

When Wang Cheng woke up from the bathtub, it was already dark, and the night passed unconsciously.

Removing the clothes from the hanger, he put on the black robe again, put on the gray cloth veil, the same as yesterday's attire, and then meditated for a moment as Bai was normally instructed.

Different from the practice of martial arts, the cultivator mainly cultivates the mind, and needs to meditate every day, and the things to meditate on are different, some are idols, and some are supplemented by breathing to visualize themselves.

With Bai teaching the Fa in person, Wang Cheng no longer needed to spend a lot of time sitting and meditating, and after he settled down, his mind entered his mind and saw that little bit of light.

It was his soul, or soul light, which was only the size of a bean at the moment, and the cultivator wanted to make it bigger and stronger through meditation.

Under the illumination of this ray of soul light, the huge sphere transformed into the Soul Devouring Bead bloomed with ghostly light.

Wang Cheng suddenly had an idea and tried to remove the Soul Devouring Bead, but as soon as the thought was born, the next moment, his mind withdrew from his mind.

This thing can't seem to be touched!

The red sun had already crossed the treetops by this time, and the February sun was mild and full of life, shining on the body, warm.

Wang Cheng walked out of the courtyard and immediately saw a big face coming over.

"Sir!"

Li Dongyang, whose facial features are almost carved out of the same mold as Li Daping, has thick eyebrows, a square face, and thick lips.

is less than twenty years old, and he is simply a young version of Li Daping!

Wang Cheng nodded, looked Li Dongyang up and down, after a day of recuperation, his complexion was obviously much better, he just wanted to leave and suddenly thought of something, and said, "Where do you know the most well-informed?" ”

"Listen to the rain building, the tea talk building!"

Li Yang immediately came to his senses, and then bit his finger and said: "There is another person who is the most well-informed, and there is nothing in Sanchuan County that he doesn't know!" ”

……

Auspicious Fang.

This is the largest gambling house in Sichuan and Chongqing County, built in the most prosperous part of the county, open 24 hours a day, not closed.

Wang Cheng followed Li Dongyang into the gambling house, and the moment he entered, his ears were temporarily deaf.

There were shouts, quarrels, cries, and laughter, like ducks and thatched cottages.

It was only seven o'clock in the morning, and there were no empty dozens of gambling tables in the hall, and many people had red eyes and unkempt hair, and they didn't know how long they had been gambling here.

"Jixiangfang has three floors, this is the first floor, and the people who gamble here are all small people in the market, gangsters, and people who don't have much money in their hands."

Li Dongyang led Wang Cheng and introduced: "The person who can go to the second floor is either the son of a wealthy businessman, or the son of an official, or a martial artist in the rivers and lakes, in short, they are all people with small status, and the person we are looking for is on the second floor!" ”

The two of them climbed to the second floor, and the scene in front of them changed dramatically.

Different from the noisy and chaotic first floor, the decoration here is magnificent, incense, without the strange smell of the first floor, and it is quieter and more comfortable.

There are only two large tables on the huge second floor, each of which is more than five meters long and wide, one for pai gow and one for dice.

The two tables were full of people, all dressed in fine clothes, and many people were standing, and there were spectators, servants, and good-looking women waiting.

As soon as the two of them reached the second floor, a ridicule sounded in their ears: "Gong Lao loses, do you still have any silver on you?" If you don't have any money, hurry home and ask your father! ”

"Torrent, don't be complacent, today is the grandfather's bad luck, and I will call you kowtow and call grandpa another day!"

A middle-aged man in his thirties walked out, his eyes were bloodshot, and he happened to bump into Li Dongyang head-on, his eyes suddenly glowed, and said: "Dongyang, your kid came just in time, hurry up and lend me some silver, and I will pay you back another day!" ”

"Where did I get my money? You don't know that the money I get every month is sent directly to my father! Li Dongyang refused.

The middle-aged man didn't believe it, and went directly to reach into Li Dongyang's arms, Li Dongyang grabbed his wrist, and the middle-aged man screamed in pain: "Let go!" Let it go! Won't I borrow it? ”

Only then did Li Dongyang let go of his hand, and the middle-aged man glared at him fiercely and left angrily.

"Who is he?" Wang Cheng asked.

Li Dongyang said angrily: "Uncle Gong's son, Gong Chuanjia, knows about gambling all day long!" Uncle Gong's little family business will be lost by him sooner or later! ”

The two entered the hall, and after turning around, they didn't find the person, Li Dongyang grabbed a Xiao Si and asked, "Why didn't you see Xiao Lingtong today?" ”

"He! I lost last night, and now I'm either on the first floor or sleeping at home! "Little Stone.

Li Dongyang nodded, and led Wang Cheng back to the first floor, and sure enough, he found someone among the crowd.

Wearing a valuable brocade robe, but it was dirty and torn, his black hair was tied with a thin strip of cloth at random, and a wine gourd hung around his waist, and he could smell the smell of wine from a distance of two meters.

"Hey!"

Li Dongyang slapped him on the shoulder, Xiao Lingtong was startled, turned his head and wanted to scold, but when he saw that it was Li Yang, he said with a lack of interest: "It's you kid!" ”

Then his eyes returned to the gambling table, and he didn't notice that there was a Wang Cheng beside him.

Wang Cheng frowned slightly, this person is sloppy, unkempt, drunk and gambling, can he really help himself get the answer he wants?

Li Dongyang leaned into his ear and said, "It's time for business!" ”

"No business is as important as this one!" Xiao Lingtong didn't look back, staring at the dice intently.

Wang Cheng also came to him at this time and whispered in his ear, and after a while, he suddenly looked at Wang Cheng with a ghostly look on his face, and said, "How do you know?" ”

"There are some questions I want to ask, this is not the place to speak." Wang Cheng said and turned around and left.

Li Dongyang didn't follow with him, Wang Cheng obviously had something important to ask, and it was not appropriate for him to follow the past.

A trace of hesitation flashed on Xiao Lingtong's wine-red face, and then he walked out of Jixiangfang and followed Wang Cheng to a nearby teahouse-teahouse.

Wang Cheng picked a more secluded corner.

As soon as he sat down, Xiao Lingtong couldn't wait to ask: "How do you know that the one just now is one, three, five, and nine?" ”

Wang Cheng said: "A little trick! ”

"I have heard that there is a spell in the Daomen, called the "Heavenly Eye Technique", the practitioner of this spell can distinguish yin and yang, and can see through all things, but the practitioner of this spell has at least the realm of divine travel, how did you do it? Xiao Lingtong was curious.

Wang Cheng didn't answer, took out a gold bar and put it on the table, and said, "I want to ask Your Excellency a few questions!" ”

As soon as he saw the gold bar, Xiao Lingtong's eyes suddenly lit up, and he simply said: "You ask, don't dare to say anything else, as long as it is what happened in Sanchuan County, I must know!" Even if I don't know today, give me a few days and I'll know! ”

Wang Cheng took a sip of tea and said, "You should know Xu Zhongheng, right?" ”

Xiao Ling channel: "The twin stars of the Xu family, who doesn't know about Sanchuan County?" The eldest Xu Boyi, at the age of twenty-five, served as the lieutenant of Sanchuan County, and his rank was higher than that of a thousand stones. The second Xu Zhongheng, who broke through to the realm of martial arts at the age of eighteen, is expected to break through to the martial arts master before the age of thirty, and is now the hottest figure under the command of Ning Hou, Xuanwei Duwei! ”

The county lieutenant Xu Boyi turned out to be Xu Zhongheng's eldest brother, this news was a bit surprising to Wang Cheng, no wonder those city guards were searching for him when he entered the city.

As a brother, Wang Cheng realized that the resistance he was going to face was even greater!

"Xu Zhongheng arrested a person, do you know where he is being held?" Wang Cheng asked again.

Xiao Lingtong smiled awkwardly and said, "This is really not clear!" He is the Xuanwei under Ning Hou, and he is the most mysterious force in Ning Hou's hands, and few people know about their actions. ”

Then he analyzed: "However, Sichuan-Chongqing County is so big, if it is an extremely important person, either the person will be locked up at home, or directly locked up in the county prison, I think it is more likely to be locked up in the county prison!" ”

Wang Cheng nodded, he was also more inclined to the latter, because the defense there was tighter.

In this way, he must go to the county prison, and he must also save people from the prison!

Then there is one person, he has to break through and pass that level!

County Lieutenant, Xu Boyi!

Wang Cheng said: "Tell me about Xu Boyi." ”

Xiao Lingtong's expression became a little complicated, and said: "County Lieutenant Xu Boyi, this person made a fortune very suddenly, the Zhang family was able to become one of the top families in Sanchuan County in just ten years, and he played the most important role!" ”

More than ten years ago, Xu Boyi was just a pawn in Sichuan-Chongqing County, but five years ago, he had become the county lieutenant of a county, and he had the strongest military force in Sanchuan County under his hands.

His own strength has also been raised to Martial Master Xiaocheng, and he is one of the few who can completely defeat him with his personal force in the entire Sanchuan County.

Xiao Lingtong took a sip of tea and said: "This person is thoughtful, unscrupulous in order to achieve the goal, in order to climb up, he first worshiped the previous county lieutenant Hu Xian as his father, and then married the daughter of the county guard Zhu. That daughter is not only ugly, but also a well-known tigress, married three husbands, all three husbands were beaten to death by her, and no one dared to marry. ”

He looked around, leaned in front of Wang Cheng, and whispered: "There have always been rumors in private that the death of the previous county lieutenant Hu Xian has something to do with him. In short, he was an extremely terrible person! ”

Wang Cheng nodded secretly, whether it is worshipping outsiders as his father or marrying a tigress who guards the county, this is not something that ordinary people can do, let alone that he may kill his father-in-law!

Extremely scary!

If he didn't have to, he very much didn't want to be an enemy of such people, but now he could only stand on the opposite side.

Later, he asked some more things, among which Xiao Lingtong couldn't say anything about the elixir "Shenjing Grass", because the Shenjing Grass was really too rare, much rarer than other elixirs.

This kind of elixir grows in the land of extreme yin, such as some ancient battlefields, mass graves, or the kind that has existed for thousands of years, and the purest thing in the world cannot grow in this environment.

"Baozhitang may have this elixir, but there is no Baozhitang semicolon in Sanchuan County, remember that the nearest semicolon is Tiandu Mansion."

Wang Cheng secretly wrote it down, and then put the gold bar in Xiao Lingtong's hand, just when Xiao Lingtong was overjoyed, he picked up the gold bar again, and said: "I don't want a third person to know what I asked today!" ”

Xiao Lingtong patted this chest and promised: "Don't worry! In our line of work, we are talking about the word "faith". ”

Wang Cheng nodded and put the gold bar back in his hand, but the following sentence made his heart hang again.

"I forgot to tell you, I'm a doctor!"

Xiao Lingtong felt inexplicable, what happened to the doctor? Aren't doctors healing? Will it still kill people?

"Kill!"

His expression changed drastically, and when he looked at the gold bar in his hand again, he felt as if he was holding a knife.

"You!"

He looked up at Wang Cheng, but there was still Wang Cheng's figure opposite, and a voice sounded behind him at this time.

"Help me find out Yang Si's news again, the more detailed the better, I will wait for you here tomorrow morning."
