Chapter 174 Thorough Investigation (2 updates)
Li Baizhen rolled his eyes.
"You almost lost your life last time, can you be more careful? Moreover, this formation is only on the scale of an ordinary 100-household investigation. You can lead the team with peace of mind. Let's count it as an exercise. Stand up a few more times. Da Gong, maybe you can climb up to the position of Baihu and be on an equal footing with me.”
Baihu? No interest.
Just kill more people.
Mount your horse.
“Drive!”
Fang Yu shouted and led the team away.
The seven or eight people from the Ten Households, as well as a few more powerful people from the Ten Households, all got on their horses to follow. Ning Youchun was also among the people with horses.
As for the rest, they all have no horses and can only walk on foot.
Such as poor Chen Cangwen.
"Eh? Eh! Give me a horse too!"
He shouted twice and was calmed down by Li Qianxuan's words.
Watching the team leave, Li Baizhen thought thoughtfully, waved to his subordinates, gave a few instructions, and left on foot.
He is going to meet someone.
A man of his own level.
……
A little, a little exciting.
Zhang Chenchen lay slumped on the bed, next to a beautiful woman who was extremely rare to see in reality.
His fingers gently moved on Zhang Chenchen's smooth skin, and a feeling like an electric shock swept through his body again.
The beautiful woman breathed into her earlobe.
“Again?”
What electronic succubus.
Zhang Chenchen blushed with embarrassment and nodded slightly.
In the past few days, she felt as if she was being taken care of. She had never been to the investigative workshop again.
Sure enough, it’s still fun to play games.
It’s okay to work part-time in reality. If you still have to work in the game, just let it go and play.
My life is comfortable now. I eat, sleep, and eat. Three meals a day are prepared by top chefs. Every day’s actions are followed by servants.
Comfortable, I can only say comfortable.
The best thing is that there is a beauty of Han Mengyu’s level...
Boom, boom, boom!
A sudden knock on the door interrupted Zhang Chenchen's thoughts and Han Mengyu's interest.
"What's the matter?"
"Sir, there are hundreds of adults who want to see you, and they are already waiting below."
"Who?"
"A gift of a hundred needles, my lord."
"A gift of a hundred needles?"
Han Mengyu frowned slightly.
These days, Kunshan Hai and others have surrendered to him, which does have some friction with Li Baizhen.
But is it necessary to visit at home?
You know, Kunshan Hai is also a bit shrewd. Although he has surrendered, he has not yet put the sign in his name.
If you don’t hang up for this day, in name, you will always be the person on Li Baizhen’s side.
Han Mengyu somewhat understood what Kunshan Hai was thinking.
Or, if you want to ascend to the throne yourself, replace the gift of hundreds of needles.
Or, I want to run on my side and become the second in command.
Today Kunshan Hai can betray Li Baizhen, and tomorrow he can betray himself. Such a person, even if he has some strength, cannot be reused.
Gently stroke Zhang Chenchen’s face.
"Be good, wait until I finish my work, then come back and continue."
Get up naked, put on a thin piece of clothing, half hidden and half visible, and directly opened the door and went out.
"My lord."
The old slave outside the door lowered his head deeply.
"Lead the way."
"Yes."
Going downstairs with bare feet, he saw Li Baizhen grinning slightly.
"Han Mengyu, can't you put on more clothes before coming down?"
"This is my home."
Han Mengyu smiled coldly.
After sitting down in front of Li Baizhen, the servants served hot tea and then stepped back.
"Tell me, what do you want from me?"
Han Mengyu's clothes were half open, and if she moved a little wider, she could see clearly inside.
Li Baizhen sighed depressedly.
That is, you have a family, otherwise who can resist this temptation.
No wonder among the hundreds of households in the same period, Han Mengyu’s subordinates were of extremely high quality, and there were many people who were willing to follow him.
When one goes out, a hundred people respond, as if two or three hundred households are dispatched.
Han Mengyu's virtue is undeniable.
Li Baizhen's expression became serious and he started talking about business.
“This morning, a demon died in the prison.”
Han Mengyu was slightly stunned.
Is this happening?
She turned her head and looked at the old slave next to her.
"Yes, the news just came that one of the ten households under Lord Li Baizhen took the lead in cleaning up the prison. Many people died. Among them was a demon hiding in it. He was discovered and killed on the spot."
Han Mengyu didn’t ask why he didn’t report in time.
While she is still enjoying herself in the room, the servants are not allowed to disturb her.
"She is quite capable. Li Baihu has a talented person. What? Are you here to show off to me for credit?"
Li Baizhen saw that her expression was natural and unpretentious. , couldn't help but murmur in his heart, but still spoke.
"Dead demon, disguised as human skin, named Neng Yanwen, a person from Qianlin Pavilion."
Qianlin Pavilion?
Han Mengyu’s heart skipped a beat.
She seemed to vaguely know why Li Baizhen came to her door in person.
"It seems you have remembered it. This morning, when my men were about to kill Neng Yanwen, someone from the prison stopped him and said that you wanted to save his life."
"...Yes."
Han Mengyu did not deny it, but her face was a little ugly.
Li Baizhen stopped talking and just looked at Han Mengyu, as if waiting for an explanation.
Han Mengyu didn’t hide it either, and said with a gloomy face.
“Yesterday, the master of Qianlin Pavilion sent a great gift and asked me to take care of their nursing home instructor.”
"I asked my men to check, and there was no problem, so I ordered them to go down. Those Yudifu brothers who were injured by Neng Yanwen all took the pills I gave them, so it is not difficult to save their lives."
This was supposed to be a simple transaction.
Yu Difu rushed into Qianlin Pavilion to investigate the case. The guard of the nursing home [Neng Yanwen] excessively shot and injured people and was imprisoned.
The injuries of those injured Yudifu team members ranged from minor to serious.
Without this transaction, Han Mengyu would not have used his own resources to take care of it. After all, those injured were not his own.
Now that there is an exchange of interests, and the lives of the Yudifu team members can be clearly guaranteed, there is no loss.
So if she is willing to pay for this elixir, the cost will be transferred to Qianlin Pavilion, and there will be no loss at all.
Everything should have been so simple and smooth. The transaction last night, the action this morning, and sending people to protect it, there were no problems.
But...
"Is it a demon... The prison was captured just a few days ago, what else is there for the demon to continue to lurk there?"
"I don't know."
Li Baizhen shook his head, and then continued: "Now it's not just Qianlin Pavilion's business, you are also suspected."
Hmph!
Han Mengyu snorted coldly.
Of course she knows how troublesome it is to be involved in such a thing.
"I am innocent and can cooperate with the investigation. However, Qianlin Pavilion must investigate thoroughly. The master of Qianlin Pavilion came to see me personally last night..."
Han Mengyu was very cooperative and told everything about last night. out.
I didn’t even hide the fact about receiving gifts.
Because it’s meaningless. Once she decides to investigate, she can’t hide this fact.
Moreover, she has been greedy for money for more than a day or two. No one in the fool's palace knows her own virtue.
At this time, hiding and tucking in is actually the problem.
"Sooner or later you will fall into greed for money." Li Baizhen is still about 70% sure that there is nothing wrong with Han Mengyu.
“What does it have to do with you!”
Han Mengyu said coldly: “When you pursued me, you said that I would fall for sex sooner or later. ”
"..."
Li Baizhen was embarrassed and touched his nose.
It has been so many years ago, and now that he has a beautiful wife, don’t mention this kind of thing again.
"Then I will report it to the superiors truthfully, and someone will take you to investigate later."
After a pause, Li Baizhen asked.
"By the way, Kunshan Hai, what do you mean? Do you really want to steal someone from me?"
Han Mengyu said calmly.
"It's none of my business. I don't care what Kunshan Hai thinks. If he comes, I'll accept it. If he doesn't come, I don't care."
To put it lightly, Kunshan Hai's Although his strength is not close to that of Baihu, he is still capable. He is a hot commodity wherever he goes. Han Mengyu must be lying if he says he has no idea.
Li Baizhen shook his head slightly.
He came here this time simply to confirm if there was anything wrong with Han Mengyu.
As for the detailed investigation and follow-up matters, we should wait until the report is sent to the court and the people above can issue the paperwork before we can investigate in detail.
A hundred households, placed in Yudi Mansion, is already considered a backbone and cannot be easily moved.
Even if it is just an investigation, there are many processes to go through.
This wave of Li Bai Zhen is just to ignore the tedious procedures and come here to have a look.
Get up.
"In this case, I will leave first."
"I won't send it."
As the gift of hundreds of needles left, Han Mengyu bit her lips secretly, with a rare expression on her face. Some mixed emotions.
The old slave suddenly whispered.
"My lord, you still haven't let go."
"Shut up!"
Han Mengyu shouted coldly and strode upstairs.
After a while, Zhang Chenchen’s fierce voice came from inside.
Zhang Chenchen felt that Han Mengyu's actions seemed rougher and more exciting when he returned!
...
The fierce sound could even be heard faintly by Li Baizhen who had just left the door downstairs.
This guy...
Li Baizhen shook his head slightly and strode out of Han Mengyu's courtyard.
Compared with other people's yards, Han Mengyu's yard not only occupies a larger area, but is also more luxuriously decorated. He is considered a rich man among the rich.
However, Han Mengyu's ability to amass money is indeed outrageous. A hundred households in a stupid village are free to collect money. As long as there are no big mistakes, the superiors are too lazy to take care of it, and no one below is willing to offend them.
After leaving the yard, Li Baizhen planned to go back to sort out the paperwork, report the situation, and then make plans.
As a result, before walking a few meters away, a person hurriedly ran from a distance.
“Report! Repay!!”
“Sir Baizhen, repay!!!”
Li Baizhen took a closer look and saw that the person coming was [Che Linfang].
He is one of the top ten generals among his subordinates, and he is still a bit female.
“Why are you in such a hurry?”
Li Baizhen frowned slightly.
His whereabouts are not hidden, and it is not difficult for his men to find him.
But what's strange is that he actually came here to report?
Is there something big going on?
Just as he was thinking about it, Che Linfang ran up to him, gasping for breath and shouting quickly.
"Lord Li Baizhen, something bad has happened!"
"The team led by Diao De was attacked by a group of men in black at [Peony Dyeing House], causing heavy casualties. The team leader, Diao De, , and several dozen families were kidnapped by people in black! Their lives and deaths are unknown!”
What? !
Li Baizhen’s expression changed drastically!
The first reaction in his mind was that there was a demon hiding in [Peony Dyeing Workshop]. After being discovered and cornered, he wanted to kill Diao Deyi and the others even if his identity was exposed.
But if you think about it carefully, it’s wrong.
No one in black has transformed into a demon.
And in this play, will the monster hidden in [Peony Dyeing Workshop] still have a way to survive?
Li Baizhen immediately realized keenly that it was not someone from the [Peony Dyeing Workshop] who did it.
In broad daylight, [Peony Dying Workshop] dares to hurt people in Yudifu, and they can only wait to be bloodbathed. No one dares to do this.
If a demon wants to operate like this, he must transform into his true form so that he has the capital to fight like this. Otherwise, with Diao Deyi's team, ordinary demons will not be able to defeat him without tearing the human skin.
Or... the big demon is out?
Could it be that Diao De's identity as a mole was exposed and he was taken away by the demon and killed.
No, if you want to kill him, there is no need to take him away! Moreover, several other ten households in this area were also taken away alive.
So, the other party must want to know some information from Diao De and others.
In just a short moment, Li Baizhen's thoughts turned several times.
What information does Diao Deyi know that the demon needs to ask?
It seems, no.
The information Diao Deyi knew was originally very limited.
The level of trust in him is not that high.
Strange!
Strange, strange, strange!
What went wrong!
Why should Diao Deyi be arrested!
Wait!
Li Baizhen suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and thought of a possibility, and his expression immediately changed.
“It’s broken!”
He suddenly turned around and rushed into Han Mengyu's yard.
“Borrow a horse!”
In the exclamations of the servants, Li Baizhen had already ridden a fast horse from the stable.
He shouted to [Che Linfang] who was still in a daze at the door.
“Assemble the brothers and quickly go to the [Peony Dyeing Workshop] to meet up! Separately search for the whereabouts of Diao Deyi and the others!”
"Yes!"
"Also, go to the Lin family immediately!"
"The Lin family?"
Che Linfang was stunned.
“Why are you going to Lin’s house?”
"Ask about Lin Jie's whereabouts!"
Li Baizhen said with a gloomy face: "He had better stay at the Lin family honestly, otherwise..."
Li Baizhen did not continue. But the murderous eyes don't lie.
If Lin Jie really dares to do that kind of thing, kill Diao Deyi and the others.
The Lin family can’t protect him either!
People in Yudi Mansion are not so easy to kill!
It’s okay to hide it, but once your identity is exposed, don’t even think about it!
The gift needle moved very quickly, and with a whip of the riding whip, the person could no longer even see his shadow.
After Li Baizhen left, [Che Linfang]'s anxious expression calmed down at a speed visible to the naked eye.
She was thoughtful, looked back at Han Mengyu's yard, and walked away quickly.
……
Half an hour ago.
Peony dyeing workshop.
Fang Yu looked at the four big characters on the plaque on the door of Dyefang and couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
The eldest brother that the second sister longs for may be in this dyeing workshop.
It could be a corpse or a living person.
To be honest, Fang Yu has no feelings for this big brother at all.
After all, after entering the game, this guy started to disappear. If the second sister hadn't been checking it, he wouldn't have bothered to care.
There are multiple people and multiple flaws. Although there are memories provided by the second sister, there are some things that are harder to hide with the closer the person is.
The second sister is pretty easy to fool, but it’s hard to say how the eldest brother is.
"Diao Shihu?"
Li Qianxuan next to him reminded lightly.
Fang Yu took a deep breath.
"Let's go."
The large army pressed forward, and the two guards at the door of the peony dyeing workshop felt like they were facing a formidable enemy.
