Ruan Jingtian threw the notebook in front of Hu Qiuyuan, turned around and walked out of the venue. When he returned to the gendarmerie, he immediately asked Yang Taipu to contact a lawyer, submit an indictment to the military court, and request the arrest of Hu Qiuyuan's secretary for dereliction of duty.

This incident caused an uproar in the officialdom of Dongshan City, and the functional departments that were complained about quietly hurried to complete the relevant matters quickly, fearing that the war between the water agency and the gendarmerie would affect themselves. Merchants of Zheguo spontaneously came to the gate of the gendarmerie and put up banners reading "Long live the good officials who think about the people" and thanked the gendarmerie for their righteous service.

Ruan Jingtian hoped that Hu Qiuyuan would jump out, but unfortunately this was an old fox, Hu Qiuyuan would not make a move lightly, and he was also waiting for an opportunity.

Hu Jiehua, deputy head of the special investigation team of the Zheguo National Security Administration, really didn't want to be far away from Quanshui City, but the ruthless reality kept him away from Quanshui City step by step.

Hu Jiehua set off from Zheguo, and his first stop was Quanshui City. The Special Investigation Unit (SITU) is intensively and meticulously investigating the arson case at the office of the General Administration of National Security in Liuyun Province. Some people say that Gong Xiaomu was a rival in love with Shao Fangxin, so he burned the General Administration of National Security, thus killing Shao Fangxin. Hu Jiehua, as an ace agent of the State Security Administration, naturally has a cool head. He investigated Gong Xiaomu's every move in Quanshui City in detail, and found that Gong Xiaomu disappeared from everyone's sight for at least one day and one night, of course, this day and night happened before the arson case, and also before he met Shao Fangxin.

He didn't think that Gong Takamu would be able to kill seventy good agents by himself. If it was really Gong Xiaomu's doing, then he must have an accomplice. However, his only accomplice is Simmons of Wheat Country, and it has been confirmed that Simmons did not have the time to commit the crime. The only person who provided an alibi to Miyakoki was Simmons, but Simmons had already returned to Mai and could not be questioned further.

Hu Jiehua will not let go of any doubts, nor will he draw conclusions arbitrarily. Although Gong Xiaomu has doubts, these doubts are not enough to support the conclusion that Gong Xiaomu is the real murderer. Therefore, he did not list Gong Xiaomu as a key target for investigation. He set his sights on the remnants of anti-philosophical organizations and merchants. But after several days of investigation, there was no clue, and the only clue disappeared in the Yidong Mountains, and he had no excuse to continue to stay in Quanshui City, so he had no choice but to leave Quanshui City and come to Laishan City, the closest to the Yidong Mountains, to investigate.

In fact, the reason why Hu Jiehua didn't want to leave Quanshui City was Tranquility. The night before leaving Zheguo, Shao Fanglei praised Ning Jingwen like a fairy, he didn't care about it at first, but five or six made a small fuss. actually made a bet on whether Hu Jiehua could marry Tranquility Wen, which made Hu Jiehua feel a little uncomfortable, could it be that with the aura of the rising Zhe Guozheng and the identity of the future head of the Hu family, he still couldn't get a Tranquility Wen?

He didn't go home with a brain to ask his father to propose to the Ning family, but decided to go to Quanshui City to conquer Tranquility Wen in person. During the investigation in Quanshui City, as long as he was free, he took out all the methods and sincerity of boys chasing girls, and frequently launched love offensives against Ning Jingwen. But Tranquility is neither hot nor lukewarm. There was no sign of being impressed, which made Hu Jiehua, who had never experienced failure, more and more frustrated, and he secretly planned to apply for permanent residence in Quanshui City, at least in Liuyun Province. With infinite sincerity, knock on the heart of Tranquility Wen.

However, the investigation of the case has reached a dead end, and he can't always stay in Quanshui City, which has few clues, so he has to come to Laishan City to investigate the most important clues. Lengthened cargo trucks. After three days of hard investigation in Laishan City, an important clue was finally discovered: when the truck passed through Laishan City, the merchant Yu Xin happened to appear in Laishan City. This lifted the mood of the investigation team and further determined that the arson case in Quanshui City may be closely related to the business. However, there are still many problems, and some people report that the remnants of the merchant have been in contact with a certain martial arts sect of the Assassin Kingdom, but no one can name this sect. This can confirm the charge of the merchant of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, but who is this martial arts sect that assassinated the country? If this martial arts sect is found, Hu Jiehua believes that the truth of the matter will be revealed.

Since all the files and materials of the previous investigation of the merchant were burned in the fire or taken away by the remnants of the merchant, it became meaningless for the investigation team to continue to stay in Laishan City, and Hu Jiehua had to go to Dongshan City, the birthplace of the merchant incident. Higashiyama Castle is not only farther away from Izumi City, but there is also someone he hates, and that is Gong Xiaomu, who may be his rival in love.

Hu Jiehua once carefully investigated the relationship between Ning Jingwen and Gong Xiaomu, and no one saw or heard that the two had an intimate relationship, and the only appearance between the two was the blind date banquet before the arson case. The waiter at the Spring Water Restaurant proved that Ning Jingwen personally said that Gong Xiaomu was brought to stir up the situation. Hu Jiehua will not stupidly mention Gong Xiaomu to Tranquility, he has made careful observations, thinking that Gong Xiaomu is not worthy of Tranquility at all, so he believes that Gong Xiaomu is the shield of Tranquility at the blind date banquet. But even if it was a light bulb or a shield, it still made Hu Jiehua feel uncomfortable when he heard Gong Xiaomu's name.

Now, in the mansion of his third uncle in Dongshan City, the deputy head of the Hu family, and the acting head of the Dongshan City Water Agency, Hu Jiehua hears the name of Gong Xiaomu the most. His second uncle's son and his cousin Hu Xiaoyuan chattered endlessly about how arrogant Gong Xiaomu was, how he opposed the Hu family everywhere, whether it was public or private, this damn Gong Xiaomu was always tit-for-tat with the Hu family.

At the just-concluded Discipline Rectification Action Conference, Gong Xiaomu completely ignored the rank of officialdom and openly attacked his superiors, which ignited the anger of everyone in the Hu family. And Hu Jiehua, who had just stepped into the Hu family's mansion, calmed down, and told him that Gong Xiaomu could sit on the throne of the captain of the gendarmerie after many years of secret service career, and he was obviously not an ordinary person, why did he touch the taboo of officialdom and repeatedly provoke the Hu family?

After listening to Hu Qiuyuan's story about the grievances and grievances between Gong Xiaomu and the Hu family, Hu Jiehua thought for a while and said: "Uncle, Gong Xiaomu has repeatedly opposed you in official affairs, and I feel that he is deliberately provoking you. But what's in it for him to provoke you? to find your mistakes at work and get you out of office? If he's at the same level as you, or if he's a competitor to you for promotion, then it might make sense to catch your mistakes at work. But he's a whole level younger than you, and he can't compete with you by jumping two levels in a row. Besides, having a good relationship with you will only benefit him for promotion, not harm. Plus, he has an audio tape about you in his hand, and he wants to sabotage your promotion. It's an easy thing to do, I really can't understand why he is so fiercely antagonistic to you in business, what is his purpose?"

"Nephew, you are right, I think so too. I can slap the table with him, I can scold him, but afterwards I can't lightly attack him, and I don't dare to lightly finger him, I even suspect that he is waiting for me to give him three fingers. I thought about it for a long time, but I never understood why he hated our Hu family? If the reason for his hatred was the two or three fingers he had given him in the past. I don't think that's a reason for him to be so crazy. Gong Xiaomu is like a mad dog, not only against me, but also with Xiao Junyan, and with the businessman, it is even more like the sea. I really don't understand why the joint council unanimously agreed to make him the captain of the gendarmerie?"

"Uncle, you said that Minister of War Xiao Junyan also did not deal with Gong Xiaomu, and what happened between them?" Hu Jiehua asked.

Hu Qiuyuan told Jiang Xuezi what happened to him, and finally said: "I don't believe that Gong Xiaomu doesn't know that Jiang Xuezi is Xiao Junyan's illegitimate daughter, and he is bold enough." But. Xiao Junyan didn't move him, this is a little strange, didn't Xiao Junyan know that Gong Xiaomu made a move on Jiang Xuezi?"

"There is this possibility, maybe Xiao Junyan doesn't know that Gong Xiaomu has a tape about you in his hand. So I didn't expect it to be Gong Xiaomu's troublemaker. In fact, you also guess that Jiang Xuezi was overthrown by Gong Xiaomu, and maybe someone else made a move against Jiang Xuezi. Do you know where these recordings come from?" Hu Jiehua thought of the key point, where was the secret recording?

"I have here the tape that Ohara got from Miyatakagi. There are also tapes about Jiang Xuezi, listen to them, and guess where the recording location is?" Hu Qiuyuan took out four tapes from his extraction. Hand it to Hu Jiehua.

Hu Jiehua listened carefully twice and said, "You, Xiao Yuan and Jiang Xuezi often go to Shengmei for business, right?"

Hu Qiuyuan was a little embarrassed and said, "Yes." ”

"Every tape mentions Shengmei Commerce, and the location of the secret recording should be here. Hu Jiehua said with certainty.

"Nephew Jiehua Xian, you are really the elite of the Zheguo agents, I thought about it for a long time before I thought of this place, I think Gong Xiaomu may have something to do with Shengmei Commerce, so this is also one of the reasons why I am jealous of Gong Xiaomu. ”

"Gong Xiaomu should have nothing to do with Shengmei Commerce. If Shengmei Business wants to deal with our Hu family and Xiao Junyan, he doesn't need a fake hand Gong Xiaomu, and if Sheng Mei Business uses a fake hand Gong Xiaomu to deal with us, then no one will guess that the content of the tape was secretly recorded in Sheng Mei Business. So from these two points, Shengmei Commerce didn't fake Gong Takamu to deal with us, and I guess Gong Takaki may have stumbled upon these tapes somewhere. "Hu Jiehua's analytical reasoning ability is amazing.

Hu Qiuyuan nodded and did not answer.

"Uncle, we will definitely crush Gong Xiaomu's bones to ashes, no matter who is behind him. Even if it is really Shengmei Business who supports him, we can't hold back, is our Hu family so easy to bully? Hmph, Gong Xiaomu, you deceive people too much. Hu Jiehua gritted his teeth and said, he paused for a moment, and then said: "Uncle, I am very interested in Jiang Xuezi's audio tape, can you lend it to me?"

"No problem, just take it. Hu Qiuyuan stuffed Jiang Xuezi's tape into Hu Jiehua's hand, and said: "Two days ago, Zhang Chengxian, the deputy head of the Qinglong Gate, came to me with four people, and they were also interested in Gong Xiaomu and asked me to provide some information about him. Gong Xiaomu is really a fragrant bait, so many people want to find him. ”

"Uncle, why did Qinglongmen come to Dongshan City, why did they look for Gong Xiaomu?" Hu Jiehua asked with a frown.

"Hey, the apparent reason is to track down the whereabouts of the Tripitaka that Hu Erma lost, but it's hard to say the real reason for coming to Dongshan City. The reason why they are looking for Gong Xiaomu is even more difficult to guess. It stands to reason that according to the strength of Qinglongmen, they will not look at Gong Xiaomu squarely, and there are some oddities in this. ”

"Uncle, you should pay close attention to the whereabouts of Qinglongmen, I feel that Qinglongmen's plan to come to Dongshan City is not small. Hu Jiehua said solemnly.

Ruan Jingtian called Liang Qianli's special line, reported the controversy with Hu Qiuyuan at the meeting, and told him about the recent situation of the Eastern Metropolitan Society. After Liang Qianli praised him, he said that he would send some plainclothes to Dongshan City in the near future to cooperate with and support Ruan Jingtian's operation. Ruan Jingtian was full of thanks, but he muttered in his heart: It won't be that someone was sent to spy on me.

Ruan Jingtian deliberately disgusted Hu Qiuyuan at the meeting, but after Hu Qiuyuan's secretary was arrested, Hu Qiuyuan still did not have any abnormality, which somewhat made Ruan Jingtian a little frustrated: Hu Qiuyuan was not fooled, he was really cunning.

After secretly scolding Hu Qiuyuan in his heart for being a turtle with a shrunken head, he put Hu Qiuyuan's matter aside. He returned to Orchid Garden No. 6 and took out the secret tips he had obtained from his trip to Spring City. Study them one by one. The three secrets of the Lao Lin School: Lao Lin Swordsmanship, Split Heart Palm, and Willow Leaf Flying Sword Technique are all very practical martial arts (see Chapter 83).

Ruan Jingtian fused the essence of Lao Lin's swordsmanship into his Fengmang swordsmanship, which enhanced the sharpness of the attack of the Fengmang swordsmang.

The Split Heart Palm is a ruthless palm technique that hits the opponent and does not seem to have any scars on the surface, but it can shatter the meridians or atrium. Ruan Jingtian carefully understood the essence of it, and found that this palm and the eagle claw gong are somewhat similar, he fused the two martial arts with each other, after practicing more than ten times, he can shatter the inside of the bluestone but the appearance is not abnormal, Ruan Jingtian is very satisfied with the eagle claw gong has this effect.

After reading the Willow Leaf Flying Knife Recipe. Ruan Jingtian felt that the Manguo Dagger Martial Technique he had used before was a little clumsy. The Dagger Martial Arts of the Manguo Kingdom emphasizes the use of all body strength to deliver a simple but fatal blow to the opponent. Although this art is very useful, it also has a weakness, that is, it is not suitable for continuous attacks, and if the opponent dodges the first blow and counterattacks, then it is very dangerous in itself. The Willow Leaf Flying Knife Trick just makes up for this shortcoming, emphasizing the power skills of the wrist and arms, and even if you miss a hit, you can flexibly attack or defend again. But there are a lot of fancy things about this martial art. Some techniques are not practical, but waste the opportunity to win, Ruan Jingtian carefully figured it out, and removed the chaff. Combine the willow leaf flying knife technique with the dagger martial art of the Manguo Kingdom, so that you can use the skill of the flying knife far away, and you can use the skill of the dagger closely.

Ruan Jingtian temporarily put aside the magic refining technique and took out two Mo Zen Sutras. Many methods were tried, including cutting off fingers and smearing them with blood, roasting them in fire, and immersing them in water, but no secret was found. Eventually, he examined page by page, and finally found an anomaly in the middle of the two books, which turned out to have a mezzanine. He opened the two interlayers and pulled out two thin pieces of soft jade.

In terms of quality and grade, these two pieces of jade are much higher than those excavated from Orchid Garden No. 6, not only thinner, but also softer, giving people a very comfortable feeling.

Ruan Jingtian put the jade slip in the palm of his hand, ran the Xuangang Jue, and the Xuan Qi was slowly released, and the handwriting gradually appeared on the jade slip, which was an ancient Chinese script.

After more than two hours, Ruan Jingtian memorized all the contents of the two pieces of jade slips, and his heart was a little excited, the name of the exercises described by the two pieces of jade slips was Divine Soul Technique, which was divided into two parts: elementary and advanced.

The brain waves of the brain of the Divine Soul Technique cultivation are somewhat similar to hypnosis, which can make the cultivator's brain waves communicate with the opponent's brain waves, the beginner part can know the opponent's thoughts and thoughts, and the advanced part can even explore the opponent's memories and carry out brain wave attacks. He was secretly pleasantly surprised: "With this kind of exercise, you can directly obtain relevant information without torture and interrogation in the future, which is very useful." ”

There are nine levels of primary and advanced exercises, and advanced exercises are only suitable for those who have the cultivation of the Xuan Shen. Ruan Jingtian immediately cultivated the primary practice of the Divine Soul Technique, and unexpectedly, with the support of Xuan Qi, within three hours, he reached the third level of the primary level. Ruan Jingtian estimated that this was due to the fact that he often manipulated the Meditation Sword and cultivated Zhen slightly, using the flying sword required the support of powerful brain waves, and the cultivation itself included the effect of cultivating thinking and brain waves, so he cultivated the Divine Soul Technique twice the result with half the effort.

Maoqiu and his couple didn't know when they stood quietly beside Ruan Jingtian, looking at Ruan Jingtian motionlessly. Ruan Jingtian had a flash of inspiration in his mind and decided to test the Divine Soul Technique on the two dogs, because he was very curious about why the two dogs followed him against the Lao Lin faction. He knew that the Divine Soul Technique was offensive and that the opponent's brain could be damaged, so he decided to ask only two or three questions and try not to hurt the puppy too much.

"What's your name?" asked Ruan Jingtian, using the Divine Soul Technique, to the hairball couple.

"My name is Mao Yuan. ”

"Why don't you follow the Lao Lin faction, but follow me?"

"The furball asked me to follow you, I like you too, you have the smell of the old master. ”

Ruan Jingtian frowned, who was the old ancestor? He turned to ask Maoqiu, "Who is the old master?"

"The old master is Jia Zhiyong, he is the closest person to me and Mao Yuan. ”

"Where is the old master? Is he from the Lao Lin faction?"

"I don't know, it's been more than a hundred years since we left the old master, and he is not from the Lao Lin faction. ”

Ruan Jingtian was taken aback, weren't the hairballs and hairballs at least a hundred years old? Are they dog fairies?

"How old are you and Mao Yuan?"

"We are both two hundred and thirty years old. ”

Ruan Jingtian was horrified in his heart, Mao Qiu and Mao Yuan were not mortal dogs, and their old master Jia Zhiyong was not a mortal, he might be a cultivator or a legendary immortal.

Seeing that Maoqiu and Maoyuan were a little tired, Ruan Jingtian stopped asking. He gently stroked the two dogs, and Maoqiu and Maoyuan quickly fell asleep.

The next day, eight warriors came to Ruan Jingtian's office, and they were sent by Liang Qianli to help. Ruan Jingtian exchanged pleasantries with them and learned the names of the first two: Wang Youhe and Sun Lingfeng. In order to cover up people's eyes, Ruan Jingtian arranged the four of them in the special service detachment and the four in the patrol team, and only accepted the instructions of Ruan Jingtian alone, which belonged to the temporary labor establishment.

After a while, Yang Tai ordinary newspaper. Zheguo Qinglongmen disciples He Guangyi and Cao Tao asked to meet.

When Ruan Jingtian heard the three words Qinglongmen, his heart was turbulent: Could it be that the matter of killing Shao Fangxin was exposed? He carefully recalled all the details of breaking into the villa of the State Security Administration at night and driving the truck back to the camp of the Self-Reliance Group, and found that the truck was an important clue left behind, and in addition, the merchants Yu Xin and the people of the Lao Lin faction had seen the truck, but all the people who were chasing Ruan Jingtian were dead. If there were no people in Lai Son who were not involved in the pursuit of Nguyen Jing Tien, it is very likely that the head of the gendarmerie captain was traced to the head of the guò truck.

Ruan Jingtian didn't believe that the people of Qinglongmen could find the people of the merchant remnants and the Lao Lin faction so quickly, because the merchant remnants were all in a hidden state underground, and they would not be easily discovered; the Lao Lin faction was located in Nanjiang Province, which was thousands of miles away from Liuyun Province, and the Qinglongmen wanted to find the Lao Lin faction. I'm afraid it won't be that simple.

Ruan Jingtian thought for a while and decided to meet the disciples of the Qinglongmen to see what kind of medicine their gourds were selling. The attitude of the two disciples of the Qinglong Sect was very arrogant, and they sent an invitation to Ruan Jingtian. said that the deputy door master invited Gong Xiaomu to a banquet at the Dongyue Hotel at noon, hoping that Gong Xiaomu would go to the banquet.

Ruan Jingtian was a little unhappy with the attitude of these two people, but he also knew that the Qinglongmen had a lot of power in Zheguo, and its sect master and the provincial governor and minister were all on an equal footing. Therefore, it is very normal that his disciples do not have a straight position.

Ruan Jingtian greeted him with a warm smile and personally poured tea for the two of them. The faces of the two men showed a look of course. Ruan Jingtian scolded in his heart: two little gangsters. He is also in front of me!

He violently activated the Divine Soul Technique, and the strong brain waves suddenly covered the brains of the two people, and the two of them were caught off guard, and their brains went blank.

"Why are you looking for me?" asked Ruan Jingtian He Guangyi.

"Looking for you for the road map of Dragon City. ”

"Who told you that I have a road map?"

"The deputy door master said. ”

"Who sued the deputy master?"

"I don't know. ”

"Do you have anything else to do with Higashiyama City?"

"We went to Hu Qiuyuan and asked about the whereabouts of the Tripitaka. ”

Ruan Jingtian was shocked, it turned out that it was the Qinglongmen who really wanted the Tripitaka.

When asked Cao Tao, the answer was basically the same, but a little more: the head of the Shao family told the head of the Shao family, Gong Xiaomu, that there was a road map.

Ruan Jingtian put away the Divine Soul Technique and fell into deep thought: Why did Shao Fangxin's father say this? The intersection between him and the Shao family is just a blind date banquet, this Shao family is too small-bellied.

He Guangyi and Cao Tao seemed to have had a long dream, their heads were dizzy, and they vaguely felt that someone was asking them questions, and they answered them one by one very respectfully. But they don't know exactly who is asking the question and what the problem is, and if they think too much, their heads will hurt. This shocked He Guangyi and Cao Tao, and both of them showed fear.

Ruan Jingtian looked at the two of them with a smile and said, "Thank you Qinglongmen for your kind invitation, Gong is very honored, and he will definitely go to the banquet on time." ”

The two of them were still in the midst of not possessing their bodies, and hurriedly got up and left with their fists clenched, no longer having the arrogance they had when they first came in.

At noon, Ruan Jingtian took Wang Youhe and Sun Lingfeng and other eight temporary workers to the Dongyue Hotel and met Zhang Chengxian, the deputy head of the Qinglongmen Gate. Zhang Chengxian saw that Ruan Jingtian had brought so many followers, and he was disdainful in his heart: "You are a gendarmerie, a serious white way, how can you act like an underworld boss, it's really unsophisticated." ”

After the guests and hosts exchanged polite pleasantries, they began to take their seats. Zhang Chengxian saw that there were many guests, so he had to open another table. He wanted to have a table with Ruan Jingtian alone, but he didn't expect Wang Youhe and Sun Lingfeng to insist on being with Ruan Jingtian, Zhang Chengxian was a little annoyed in his heart, but as the master, he couldn't say anything, and ordered He Guangyi and Cao Tao to stay, and let the other disciples accompany him to leave a temporary worker in another private room.

Ruan Jingtian looked at Wang Youhe and Sun Lingfeng beside him, and sneered in his heart: This Liang Qianli is too unreasonable, and he actually wants to be a puppet. Hmph, I'd like to test what you two overseers are capable of?

Zhang Cheng was the main escort first, and he thought that he was the biggest official, so he said at the beginning: "Captain Gong is young and promising, and the amount of alcohol must be good, so you must drink well." ”

Ruan Jingtian waved his hand and said, "Deputy Master Zhang, I'm sorry, the War Department has an order: you can't drink alcohol at noon, so Gong has to replace wine with tea." ”

"The Minister of War is Xiao Junyan, I said hello to him, he promised not to trouble you, you drink openly. ”

"Deputy Master Zhang, not only the War Department is in charge of me, but also the water mechanism can also press me. A few days ago, several school teachers celebrated the child's good results in the exam, set up two tables of banquets, and the water organ took pictures on the spot and reported that the teacher was canceled from public office. So when I came here to eat, I already risked being dismissed, and I didn't dare to touch the wine, and I asked the deputy head of the sect to forgive me. (To be continued......)
