Chapter 322 goes one step further!
"Ahem, come and sprinkle some water, clean up the dust, find the plaque, pick it up and hang it up."
"Where's the doctor? Call the doctor over. I have several broken ribs and my right arm is broken. It hurts so much."
"I can't take it anymore, I can't take it anymore, do you have any energy-boosting pills? Give me two quickly, I'm dying..."
"Someone help me up! Are they all dead?"
Lian Jingye, Huyan Shijing and others shouted a few times, staggered to their feet with the help of the gang members who came over, and walked out of the hole in the wall.
Just came out of the cave.
The thunder is rolling.
The entire Juyi Building collapsed with a loud bang, causing several people's clothes to flutter and smoke and dust to rise everywhere.
Lian Jingye waved his hand to clear away the smoke and dust, then turned on tiptoe to face the ruins and saw that everyone was looking at him.
"Why are you looking at me? Is there anyone in there? Get them out quickly."
"By the way, where is the person who came with Lord Liang?"
"Here, here, here!"
Lu Xinqing pushed away the bricks and stones, revealing his head. His entire lower body was firmly pressed down by the beam.
Lian Jingye hurriedly sent people to move the beam.
Huyan Shijing put one hand on the gang member's shoulder, leaned on the iron mace with the other hand, and half jumped and half walked to the courtyard.
It was a damp and cloudy day, with shallow puddles on the ground from last night's heavy rain. Some mud and sand accumulated at the bottom of the puddles, and the sunlight reflected off the swaying ancient trees.
Under the tree pool.
Cheng Chong sat quietly with his head down, his shoulders piled with fallen leaves. Mud and water climbed up through the cracks in the linen and merged with the blood to turn a dark red color.
Liang Qu stood under a tree with his spear in hand, gazing at the terraced fields on the hills behind Shahe. There was a clear pond at the bottom of the valley, with a thatched cottage beside it.
"Master Liang... help... Cheng Chong..."
"He's not dead." Liang Qu turned around, "It's just that I broke his Dantian, and he lost too much blood and energy, so he fainted."
Cheng Chong's dantian was destroyed and he had difficulty exerting force. With Liang Qu's current strength, he was no longer much of a threat.
Capturing a living person is much more meritorious than capturing a dead body.
Huyan Shijing sighed: "I didn't expect Yingjian to be the son of the third gang leader, but if he didn't say it, how would we know? He did something so outrageous that it destroyed the dam. It's really..."
Liang Qu glanced at Huyan Shijing and said calmly, "I, Liang, always keep my word and never quibble with words. If I say I will save your lives, then I will save your lives, provided that you have not participated in destroying the dike."
Huyan Shijing's old face was as bright as a chrysanthemum, and he raised his hand and bowed: "Thank you very much, sir. Thank you very much, sir."
"Remember what I came to the Shahe Gang for?"
Huyan Shijing was stunned for a moment, and after a while he remembered that Liang Qu came here to borrow a boat!
"I will arrange it right away. I will notify everyone and assign you the best sailors! It is a blessing for the people to have an official like you in the Hebo Office!"
Liang Qu ignored Hu Yanshijing's flattery: "You Shahe Gang have to support so many people, feed them, clothe them, promote them and reward them, so you should have a treasure house."
"Treasure house..." Huyan Shijing looked embarrassed, "Yes, there is, but there are not many good things in it. Last time... But if you want to see it, it's definitely okay. Take whatever you want. I'm the one who makes the decision! Lian Jingye!"
Lian Jingye, who was not far away, hurried over.
"Master Liang is going to our Shahe Gang's treasure house. Where is your key?"
"It's on me."
Lian Jingye took out a long spoon with a peculiar shape, and the top looked like a flower.
Huyan Shijing explained: "The treasure house needs two keys to be opened. In the past, the big boss had two keys, and the second and third bosses each had one.
Now that the first and second gang leaders are not here, Lian Jingye and I each have one. Cheng Chong should have one too, but he probably doesn’t have it with him.”
"My Lord, follow me."
Lian Jingye raised his head and led the way. Although it was Huyan Shijing who agreed to Liang Qu's going to the treasury without his permission, he had no objection.
When dealing with Cheng Chong, Liang Qu displayed amazing archery and spear skills.
The consumption was probably quite high, but the key point is that he was hiding in the back and was not hurt at all!
The consumption is high, so you just need to take pills to recover. Injury will not heal in a short time.
Now the entire Shahe Gang has suffered heavy casualties, and the remaining ordinary gang members combined are no match for Liang Qu.
After sending away the two young gang members who were supporting them, Huyan Shijing and Lian Jingye led Liang Qu through the courtyard and into a small room in a mansion.
The two opened the tunnel and went about ten feet deep. In front of them, a steel door appeared with a round ring buckle in the middle.
Huyan Shijing lit the oil lamp, put the two keys together into one, inserted it into the hole, turned it three times with force, and the gears started to turn with a click.
A crack appeared in the tightly closed steel door, and Huyan Shijing pushed it hard.
No push.
"Ahem." Huyan Shijing's old face turned red, "I was beaten too hard. I don't have much strength left."
Fighting against Cheng Chong was truly a life-threatening undertaking, and coupled with the aftereffects of drug use, he was exhausted all over. It was already good enough that the two of them could still talk while standing.
Liang Qu remained silent, walked forward and opened the door.
"Quack quack..."
Lian Jingye raised the torch and walked forward, illuminating the dark treasure house. Inside was a long corridor with shelves hanging on both sides of the walls, but the shelves were empty, with only some worthless trinkets on them.
Going further in, there is a small room with two medicine cabinets.
One is for metal treasures, and the other is for precious medicines and pills.
Liang Qu flipped through the precious medicines and pills, identified them one by one, and took away five bottles of Qi-boosting pills, two bottles of blood-recovering pills, and in addition...
"I want this Zhu fruit and this Jade fruit. Is there any problem?"
Huyan Shijing felt heartbroken.
Zhu fruit and jade fruit are the two best precious plants put into the treasury since the last cleansing of Hebo.
Lian Jingye said hurriedly: "No problem, no problem, let alone two pieces, it's okay even if you use them all." "Don't worry, I only want these, I won't take anything else."
As he was speaking, Liang Qu had already walked out of the treasure house, leaving Huyan Shijing and Lian Jingye stunned.
Really not taking it?
Liang Qu turned around: "Aren't you leaving?"
"Let's go!"
The two of them hurriedly followed, closed the treasury door, and walked out of the tunnel.
"Arrange a quiet room for me. I will digest it now. Before you go out, prepare all the boats for me and keep an eye on Cheng Chong."
"Don't worry, sir. I'll take care of it!"
Lian Jingye and Huyan Shijing nodded repeatedly. They took Liang Qu to a quiet room in the mansion and were about to leave.
Liang Qu stopped them and asked a question.
"Cheng Chong, what was it like before?"
Lian Jingye and Huyan Shijing fell into deep thought after hearing this.
"Very strong." Lian Jingye said, "Your Excellency may not know that before, our Shahe Gang only had two wolf smoke masters, one big gang leader and one third gang leader.
Looking at the entire Huazhu County, a force with two Wolf Smoke masters is one of the best. "
"Where's the second leader? Isn't that a wolf smoke?"
"Although the Second Gang Leader was the second in command, his strength was only at the level of a galloping horse. He relied on his relationship with the First Gang Leader as a brother, so many of his brothers were dissatisfied with him. The root of the trouble was probably planted at that time."
Huyan Shijing added: "The Third Gang Leader is young and strong, and he does things prudently. He rarely acts on impulse, and he doesn't even approach women. He also rarely does 'evil things' like the First Gang Leader and the Second Gang Leader.
I think this is the reason why the two masters who came here originally left the Third Gang Leader behind. When the Third Gang Leader takes control of the Shahe Gang, the previous conflicts will be completely eliminated.”
Lian Jingye frowned: "Come to think of it, Cheng Chong doesn't seem to want to kill us?"
"How to say?"
After all, Liang Qu had never faced Cheng Chong's power directly, so he was not very clear about his specific feelings and pressure.
"From the back, it seems that Cheng Chong has some explosive power, but he didn't use it when he had several good opportunities.
Once a breach is made in our Green Python Formation and two of them die, its power will be greatly reduced.
Secondly, if the leader really hated us, why didn't he take action against me and Huyan Chenshi before today? Did he defeat us one by one? Did he have to wait for you to come and solve the problem together? Why did he end up like this?"
Huyan Shijing thought for a moment, "It is true that Cheng Yingjian is very good, polite, strong, and has a great manner.
I can understand the pain of the Third Boss losing his son, but given his character, he wouldn't do anything that would ruin the situation."
"Any more?"
"Oh, it should be after Yingjian died that the Third Gang Leader moved to live in the small thatched cottage, right below the terraced fields on the back hill. Oh! I should have noticed at the time that Yingjian's eyebrows were indeed more like the Third Gang Leader, not the First Gang Leader."
"How could I detect that... I thought Cheng Chong was just putting on a show. After all, the Shahe Gang is known for its loyalty, and Cheng Chong was paying his respects to the first and second gang leaders..."
"Any more?"
"I can't think of any for now, that's all."
"me too."
"Then think about it after you go out, write down all the unreasonable parts and summarize them for me."
"Don't worry, sir. I'll do it right away."
"Go out."
The two of them closed the door.
The candlelight is dim.
Liang Qu sat cross-legged on the cushion.
moment.
Liang Qu gave up immediately without figuring out a conclusion.
He is Du Shuilang. It is enough for him to collect evidence and catch the culprit who destroyed the dike. As for whether there is a bigger conspiracy behind it, such brain-consuming task should be done by the three judicial officials.
Speaking of which, it really made Huazhu County Magistrate Yu Dayi jump half of his body out of the mud.
On the surface, the Hebo Bureau failed to conduct a thorough investigation, which led to Cheng Chong destroying the dike in retaliation, and he should bear the main responsibility.
Lord Yu failed to supervise properly and bears secondary responsibility, but if he operates well and manages things properly, he may still be able to stay in the officialdom.
But Xu Yuelong was unlucky.
Liang Qu uncovered the Whale Gang. Xu Yuelong took the lead over Wei Lin and sent his own people to clean up the entire Huaiyin Prefecture, taking advantage of the information gap to claim most of the credit.
At that time, Xu Yuelong was the most popular person, and he was far superior to Ti Ling Wei Lin, so much so that Wei Shao disliked him very much afterwards, and they had a small conflict before the auction. Oh, and then there was a medium conflict after he won.
Who could have thought that there would be such a mess between the third gang leader and the first gang leader?
It’s not easy to get great merit…
Liang Qu practiced Wansheng Baoyuan to gather his thoughts and improve his state.
A quarter of an hour later, Liang Qu, who had recovered most of his strength, took out the Zhu fruit and the Jade fruit.
The former is undoubtedly an aquatic plant, while the latter is questionable, belonging to between water and land, and I don’t know whether it contains aquatic essence.
Liang Qu's five orifices are now all open, and he only needs one more orifice to reach the perfection of the middle realm and generate the inner energy.
He was not far from the sixth orifice before. Whether he had it or not, both were enough for him to take a big step forward!
Liang Qu wiped the peel and ate the fruit.
[Water Essence +1678]
