The bright sunshine, the gentle majesty, the yellow sand of the desert!
It is obviously night in reality, but in this instance it is day.
Zhao Zheng was in the desert, running along a zigzag route. The moment he took each step, his heels slammed into the ground and bounced up instantly. His movements were smooth and standard, without any stagnation. Behind him, there was a trace of
A long series of sunken footprints, and bursts of yellow sand and smoke.
It's a pity that his current strength is low and he has not yet achieved great success in Qinggong. If he were a master of Qinggong, he could be as light as a feather and leave no trace when he lands. Even if he steps on the yellow sand, he will not leave even a single footprint!
Zhao Zheng is not a master, but he is moving towards the master step by step.
If you pay, you will be rewarded. Sweat is the seed that a man plants in his life. When this seed is harvested, it will usher in the most gorgeous moment in life!
Now, this seed has sprouted.
Zhao Zheng was secretly using his skills in his body, which had never been effective in the past, but today he unintentionally opened up all the links. The internal skills circulated rapidly in the Yin Qiao meridians, generating a floating energy from the soles of his feet, which went straight to his calves. Zhao Zheng only felt a light movement on the soles of his feet.
, the body flew out and actually spanned a distance of more than two meters!
This feeling of walking as fast as flying is very comfortable, as if a pair of wings have been inserted into the body, giving Zhao Zheng unprecedented freedom.
Zhao Zheng was filled with ecstasy, and took another step forward. Taking advantage of the strength in his calf, he took another step forward by as much as two meters, completely exceeding the limits of the human body. He used Luo Yanbu for the first time.
As a result, his speed suddenly increased and he ran a long distance. It was a pity that he could not maintain this momentum. When the internal force for successful operation was exhausted, his speed immediately dropped, and his mysterious floating energy became even more
It disappeared without a trace.
Zhao Zheng tried to use his kung fu again, but he could not succeed. The success just now was just a flash in the pan, as if it was just a coincidence. Until he exhausted all his internal strength, he could not succeed in his kung fu again. However, he did not suffer from this.
Even if he tries his luck and succeeds once, it will be a great gain for him. One thing brings two. Sooner or later, he will master the method of using Qing Gong, so that he can use it freely every time, and he can leap two steps with every step he takes.
Meters away!
The five opportunities to enter the dungeon were exhausted in this way. A night for ordinary people was like several days for Zhao Zheng. When ordinary people were sleeping, he no longer knew how much sweat he had shed.
One night passed, and the next morning dawned.
Because he succeeded in his luck for the first time last night, Zhao Zheng was in a particularly cheerful mood today, always with a warm smile on his face, which was warmer than the autumn morning light.
But who would have thought that such a smile would become an excuse for criticism from a certain girl.
"Little pervert, why are you giggling so early in the morning? Are you thinking about something dirty again?" Li Zhenzhen met Zhao Zheng head-on and asked angrily. She had just washed up and there were still stains on her temples.
With some water on it, it looks as beautiful and refined as a hibiscus emerging from water.
Zhao Zheng was stunned when he heard this and looked around. There was really no one else in the room. The little pervert in Li Zhenzhen's mouth could only be him. He pointed to his nose and wondered: "You said I am a little pervert?
"
"That's right."
"When did I become a little pervert? Isn't my new nickname 'Dong Dong'?"
"The newer nickname than 'Dongdong' is the little pervert." Li Zhenzhen said confidently. In fact, the reason why she said Zhao Zheng was the pervert was because Zhao Zheng's eyes were too much on Miss Haitang's butt last night.
With two eyes, in her opinion, this was already a pervert.
Zhao Zhengyi frowned and recalled what he did yesterday, but no matter how much he thought about it, he never did anything out of the ordinary. He felt that there must be a misunderstanding here, and asked, "Did I accidentally bump into you yesterday?"
Body? That’s why you said that about me.”
Li Zhenzhen's face turned red when she heard this and said angrily: "Shameless!"
Seeing Li Zhenzhen's reaction, Zhao Zheng became more convinced of his guess. He thought that he must have touched Li Zhenzhen's arm or somewhere else yesterday, which angered Li Zhenzhen. He smiled bitterly and said, "Hero Li, we are here all the time."
When we are together, it is normal if there is any physical contact. Don’t get me wrong, I never meant to touch you.”
"Only a sow has physical contact with you. This girl is pure and innocent, and she is as guarded as jade. Don't even think about touching me."
"Since I haven't met you, why do you say I'm a pervert?" Zhao Zheng said in confusion.
"Let me ask you, did you take a peek at Miss Haitang's... back yesterday?" Li Zhenzhen is a girl after all, and it is not convenient for her to say indecent words such as buttocks.
"What? Just looking at a woman's back makes you a pervert?" Zhao Zheng almost spat out a mouthful of blood, "If you don't look at a woman's back, let alone me, even a monk can't do it. Aren't you trying to force others to do something difficult?"
"Not only did you look at it, but your eyes were also narrowed."
Zhao Zheng suddenly recalled that he seemed to have really stared at Miss Haitang's butt twice last night, but it was not a big deal. He coughed a few times to cover up his embarrassment, shook his head and said: "
Nonsense, my eyes have always been decent, how could I be so squinting?"
"Don't deny it, I've seen it with my own eyes."
"Did you peek at me?"
"Who peeked at you!"
"You didn't peek at me, how did you know my eyes were squinting."
"I saw it accidentally."
"Okay, you said my eyes are squinting, but what do those squinting eyes look like?"
"The squinting eyes are..." Li Zhenzhen said halfway but couldn't explain it. If she wanted to explain it elegantly, she couldn't explain it clearly. If she wanted to explain it forcefully, she would probably involve a lot of indecent words. She
Swallowing back the second half of the sentence, he pointed at Zhao Zheng's nose and said forcefully, "The squinting eyes are what you have now."
"Okay. When a scholar meets a soldier, you can't explain why. If you insist on saying that my eyes are wrong, I can't help it. You can't let me gouge out my eyes." Zhao Zheng spread his hands and said.
"Little pervert, don't explain."
"Okay, the little pervert won't explain anymore. The little pervert has to study business now. I wonder if Heroine Li is willing to talk to the little pervert about business?" Zhao Zhengxiao asked.
The so-called business matter, no need to guess, was about blackmailing the three members. Li Zhenzhen was very concerned about it. She immediately gave up her thoughts of questioning Zhao Zheng and said seriously: "It's time to talk about business. Those members.
We already know the details of them, and we also know which brothel they went to, so now we have to think of ways to blackmail them."
"Do you have any good ideas?"
"Although I have never blackmailed anyone, it shouldn't be difficult to think about it. We just need to write a letter, write the handle in our hands on it, and then ask them to send the money to us within the agreed time, so it should be
That’s it.”
"The problem lies here, how do we get the letter to them? How do we receive the money?" Zhao Zheng asked again and again.
"It's easy to deliver letters. You can jump up on the wall of the members' homes at night, throw the letter directly in, and leave immediately after the letter is delivered. As for where to collect the money, it is indeed a problem and requires careful planning.
For a moment, they are very likely to make things difficult for us when we collect money." Li Zhenzhen analyzed it, and then showed a thoughtful look.
"That's right, collecting money is much harder than delivering letters." Zhao Zheng nodded in agreement, and then started to use his brain, thinking about how to get the money smoothly, and then escape unscathed.
"Let me think about it," Li Zhenzhen's beautiful eyes flashed and suddenly lit up, "Yes! We can make an appointment to pay the money in the open space outside the city, and only allow them to send one person, so that we can get
After paying the money, you can leave immediately. They only send one person, so they can't stop the two of us. Didn't you say that they only have warriors from the third level of heaven at most, and there are no more powerful experts."
Li Zhenzhen's idea was not a brilliant idea. Zhao Zheng had thought of it before, but he had overturned it long ago. He shook his head and said: "No, in this case, they will ambush people nearby. Even if we succeed in getting it,
Qian will also be rounded up. And even if they only send one third-level master here, the threat to the two of us will be great enough."
"If the two of us don't have enough manpower, we might as well call Sister Shen. She has already reached the fourth heaven realm and has few rivals in a small place like Qibao County."
"It's not impossible to ask her to come, but I hope it's best to rely on the two of us to handle this matter."
Li Zhenzhen thought for a while, nodded and said: "That's right. If I ask others to help me, I won't be able to show off my abilities as the heroine Li."
Zhao Zheng frowned and continued to think hard, but he still couldn't come up with any brilliant ideas. Later, his head started to hurt. He rubbed his forehead and said: "Headache, headache, use this matter to blackmail those few people."
"Except for me, it's just like pulling a tooth out of a tiger's mouth. It's really too dangerous. Isn't there a good way to escape unscathed?"
"I'm thinking about it too." Li Zhenzhen shook her head.
The two were silent for a long time, and eventually even Li Zhenzhen had a headache. She simply stopped thinking about it, changed the subject, and asked, "By the way, how much money are we planning to extort?"
"I've thought about this. If I ask for too much, I'll push them into a hurry. If I ask for too little, it's really not worth our war, so if I want to pick one, I'll give it ten thousand taels." Zhao
Zheng replied.
"Isn't ten thousand taels too little?" Li Zhenzhen asked dissatisfied.
"If it exceeds this number, it will shake their family fortunes. They will not pay so much money to protect a secret. The price of 10,000 taels is just within their affordability." Zhao Zheng once thought in his heart.
The secret of Xunhuajing was valued at only ten thousand taels.
"That's right, if they want too much, they would definitely rather make this secret public than go bankrupt." Li Zhenzhen nodded.
"And they want too much. They can use the money to hire experts to kill us. They can hire a master from the fifth heaven to kill us. Twenty thousand taels of silver is almost enough." Zhao Zheng was rather afraid of this matter, so he didn't
Plan to ask for more.
"Okay. But I still have a question. If we successfully get the money, do we really have to keep the secret for those bastards?"
"Of course." Zhao Zheng replied blurtly.
"They were just lustful, but they killed so many people to keep the secret of the secret passage. Why should we help them keep the secret?" Li Zhenzhen asked puzzledly.
"First of all, if you accept the money but fail to fulfill your promise, it is really unbecoming of a military man. Secondly, publicizing this matter will not be enough to defeat the three of them, and will not achieve the purpose of teaching them a lesson. Thirdly, publicizing this matter will not be enough to defeat them.
When doing something, it is easy to expose our identity. If they know our identity, it will be troublesome." Zhao Zheng analyzed one by one. In this matter, his purpose has always been very clear, that is
There is no need to do unnecessary things to cause trouble for yourself by extorting money.
"They only blackmailed them 10,000 taels of silver. It was really cheap for them. As the saying goes, a life is worth a life. They killed those workers, so they should pay the debt with their lives." Li Zhenzhen said indignantly.
Zhao Zheng thought about it for a moment, and what Li Zhenzhen said was not unreasonable. If it was just looking for flowers and asking for willows, it would not be a big mistake, but it would be different if it hurt people's lives. His face darkened, and he decided: "That's right, they did do it.
This is a bit too much. I promise you that when I am strong enough in the future, I will definitely seek justice for the five corpses in the secret passage. But for now, don’t take this risk. Zhang Yuanwai’s guards Wei Buxiao and Zhou Chen
They are not easy to deal with."
"Okay. Let's wait until we have enough strength to deal with a few of them." Li Zhenzhen nodded.
The two then discussed how to blackmail and collect money, but they still couldn't come up with a good idea, so they spent half a day like this. Zhao Zheng felt that he couldn't eat hot tofu in a hurry, so he stopped forcing himself to come up with ideas.
Plan to think slowly.
In the next few days, Zhao Zheng would sometimes go to the Huichun Medical Center to learn alchemy techniques, and sometimes he would go to the houses of several members to step on the plates. As for Li Zhenzhen, she continued to be responsible for inquiring about information.
One afternoon, Zhao Zheng pretended to be nonchalant and walked past the back door of Zhang Yuanwai's house. He caught a glimpse of something special with his peripheral vision. Five ugly wild dogs gathered at the back door of Zhang Yuanwai's house.
These wild dogs seemed to be waiting for something, licking their lips from time to time.
At this time, the back door of Zhang Yuanwai's house suddenly opened, and two servants pushed a black cart out. There was a large swill bucket on the cart, and the smell of leftovers wafted out. Five wild dogs smelled it.
After tasting it, he screamed excitedly and begged for mercy.
The laws in ancient times were extremely strict. Even littering on the street was illegal, and all garbage had to be disposed of in a unified manner. Two servants pushed a cart along the road to take away the garbage, and five wild dogs followed after smelling the smell.
, getting ready for a big meal. It seems that Zhang Yuanwai’s family takes out the garbage at this time every day, so even wild dogs have developed the habit of coming here to wait for food.
Zhao Zheng looked at the wild dogs wagging their tails, and his eyes suddenly lit up. These wild dogs gave him inspiration on how to send letters. The corner of his mouth curled up slightly, he quickened his pace, and left here briskly, returning to his temporary residence.
"Gu Gu, Gu Gu."
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Zhao Zheng heard the familiar cooing sound. There were several homing pigeons raised in this courtyard, specifically used to communicate with the Hongchen Inn. After each homing pigeon was released, it could fly to the Hongchen Inn accurately.
.Attracted by the cry of the homing pigeons, he walked to the cage, grabbed the food bag hanging on the cage next to him, and poured some rice grains into the plate of the cage. When the homing pigeons saw the food, they came up to peck at it.
Zhao Zheng looked at the pigeons eating, and an idea flashed in his mind, as if it came naturally, and he solved the problem that had been bothering him for many days.
"Yes!"
Zhao Zheng stared at the carrier pigeon with a growing smile on his face.
