Old Man Shi chuckled and said, "A disciple of the Ice God Sect named Li Zhenhua encountered some trouble by the forest. You are the closest, so go over and deal with it."
Taking the high-speed train to the edge of the forest for an hour and a half is indeed a waste of half a day... Lou Cheng nodded slightly and asked, "Master, what's the trouble?"
"It's a long story. You brat, you don't understand me at all, old man!" Mr. Shi laughed and scolded, "Make a note of the phone number and call her later. She will tell you exactly what happened, XXXXXXXXXXX."
"Okay..." Lou Cheng repeated twice, motioning to Jiang Fei next to him to help write it down, and then he asked, "Master, I don't work part-time in the sect. I should be paid for doing this kind of task, right?"
"Hey, when did you become obsessed with money?" Old Man Shi said with a slightly surprised smile.
Lou Cheng smiled and said: "Koke is going to study in the United States, isn't it? I have to save more for travel expenses."
As for using his own influence and personal connections to do business in partnership with others, he has not yet been able to cross the threshold in his heart.
"Yes, I also know how to save money for this matter, and I have a sense of responsibility. The reward must be there. Let's talk about it later. How could the sect treat you badly? If you don't care about your face, you have to look at my old face!" At this point!
, Old Man Shi still warned uneasily, "When you get to the forest, if something unexpected happens, remember to call me, Master."
"Okay." Lou Cheng didn't say anything more. After the call ended, he quickly dialed the number given by his master.
The cheerful ringing only lasted for three seconds before the call was connected, and a female voice implying fatigue and anxiety spoke:
"Hello, who's there?"
"I am Lou Cheng of the Ice God Sect." Lou Cheng's voice was low and his words were concise and to the point.
The female voice suddenly became excited: "Hello, senior, I am Li Zhenhua's girlfriend Zhang Xiaozi."
Senior? Lou Cheng was stunned for a moment after being called out. He didn't bother to correct him and asked the topic directly: "What happened to Li Zhenhua?"
It's his girlfriend who's answering the phone!
"They didn't tell you? Zhenhua, he's missing...Senior, the matter is complicated, so I can't explain it clearly this way. When you get here, I'll explain it in detail in person." Zhang Xiaozi said eagerly.
The master is indeed unreliable... Lou Cheng cursed, thinking that he would go over and take a look anyway, so he agreed and said: "Okay, I will inform you after I book the tickets and we will meet at the high-speed rail station."
"Okay, okay, I'm waiting for you, senior." Zhang Xiaozi breathed a sigh of relief and seemed to have found her backbone.
Senior...is my voice that old? Lou Cheng made a joke, opened the APP, booked the high-speed train to Linbian at 2:25, and ignored the return trip for the time being.
"Pang Jiang, take me to the high-speed rail station. If there is something wrong with the sect, let me handle it." Lou Cheng and Jiang Fei never said anything polite.
"Tsk, Chengzi, you already feel like a business elite!" Jiang Fei had just finished watching a TV series about the workplace.
Lou Cheng was about to laugh at himself when something suddenly happened in his heart: "Wait a minute, Fatty Jiang, take me home first, and then go to the high-speed rail station."
Linbian no longer belongs to Xing Province, but is an important frontier area. Although it is far from the national border, it is a land transportation center with a huge flow of people. The public security environment is not very good, and it can even be said to be a bit chaotic. Even if you are in a beautiful mountain, you
From time to time, we can hear about big cases happening there, and since it is a multi-ethnic area, the atmosphere is quite fierce, so even if you don't plan to take action, you still have to be prepared to do so.
As the vehicle moved, Lou Cheng took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Yan Zheke, "covering his face and sighing":
"Those who are capable work hard. I was ordered by my master to go to the edge of the forest to deal with the trouble caused by a younger disciple..."
I am an uncle-level figure. If something happens to someone of my generation, I won’t be able to solve it...
Yan Zheke quickly replied, "dumbfounded" and said:
"Okay, so sudden...it's quite chaotic by the forest. Chengzi, you have to be careful. Go put on your martial arts uniform. Don't think about holding back no matter what happens. You are the most important..."
She said a lot at once, and at the end she "sit obediently" and said, "I'm waiting for you to come back~"
"As my wife says, I will kill the gods, and the Buddha will kill the Buddha. I will definitely be able to return smoothly tonight!" Lou Cheng made an excited expression of "with a red scarf on his head."
After returning home, Lou Cheng dug out another set of navy dragon and tiger club martial arts uniforms, put on the training shoes specially customized for him by Wu Qinggui's company, tightened his cuffs, picked up his mobile phone and wallet, and strode out.
go.
Two o'clock and eight minutes.
He was sent outside the high-speed rail station by Jiang Fei.
Two fifteen.
Lou Cheng passed the security check and boarded the high-speed train.
Two twenty-five.
The high-speed train started on time and roared towards the south.
Three fifty-two.
The high-speed train stopped at Linbian Station. After Lou Cheng sent a message to Yan Zheke, he followed the queue and walked out of the carriage.
Three fifty-nine.
Dressed in navy blue, he was calm and heavy, and strode like the wind. He walked out of the arrivals hall and found the iconic white horse sculpture in the square in front of the station.
This is the meeting place agreed between him and Zhang Xiaozi!
"Senior?" A girl in her twenties with a clear noodle hairstyle called out uncertainly.
She is on the thin side, wears short-sleeved shorts and jogging shoes, and her appearance can only be considered delicate.
"Zhang Xiaozi?" Lou Cheng asked back.
"Yes, yes, you are Senior Lou Cheng? Didn't you say that you are going to have an uncle?" Zhang Xiaozi said, half surprised and half confused.
It was precisely based on this that she directly called her senior.
It seems that you are not a disciple of the Ice God Sect, and you don't care much about university martial arts meetings and similar topics... As his thoughts turned, Lou Cheng nodded calmly:
"I started late and have a higher seniority."
Without waiting for Zhang Xiaozi to ask again, he looked at the taxi queue, straightened the cuffs of his martial arts uniform and said:
"Let's talk as we walk, don't waste time."
Everyone is missing, so we must seize every minute and every second!
"Yes, senior." Zhang Xiaozi quickened her pace, followed Lou Cheng, and spoke very quickly, focusing on the key points, "There is a rich man by the forest named Si Jian Ting. He has colluded with a warlord in the war-torn area in the south.
An underground casino opened near the border there, tricking many people into playing and ruining their fortunes. Zhenhua's father was one of them. He committed suicide in the casino when he was thirteen years old, leaving his family ruined."
"He's here for revenge? Is there any evidence?" Lou Cheng kept walking and asked straight to the core.
Sects generally ignore this kind of revenge that has no reliable clues.
"Yes." Zhang Xiaozi hurried to almost a trot, "He has been staring at Si Jianting for two or three years. This time he said he could get decisive evidence, so he rushed to the edge of the forest again. Because he was afraid of an accident, he even brought
I, let me notify the sect immediately if I see anything wrong."
"Then how did he disappear?" Lou Cheng slowed down and was no longer so eager to approach the taxi queue.
There are so many people there, who knows if any taxi driver knows anyone there?
Zhang Xiaozi took a breath:
"Last night, last night Zhenhua said that he would explore the Linfu Building in Si Jianting at night and find some conclusive evidence. I watched him go in, but he didn't come out the whole night. I didn't think it was right, so I immediately followed the instructions
The phone number he mentioned was notified to the senior brothers in the sect."
"The sect first went to the provincial department to put pressure on the police and asked the police here to look for people, but their local protectionism was very strong and they didn't pay much attention. After searching again, nothing was found. Even after checking the surveillance video, there was nothing.
The scene where Zhenhua went in, I, I clearly watched him go in!"
"I urged you again and again, but to no avail, so I had no choice but to report back to the sect, and they asked you, senior, to come."
Although Lou Cheng was much younger than she expected, in this situation, she was grasping at the last straw and did not dare to change her attitude at all.
Lou Cheng quickened his pace again and said in a deep voice:
"Let's go to Lin Fu Building to take a look first. You can recall it carefully and think about whether there are any other important details that have been missed. We'll talk about it after we rent it out."
"Yes, senior." Zhang Xiaozi was out of breath after walking.
At 4:21, the taxi stopped on the street opposite Lam Fu Building.
Lou Cheng, who was dressed in a navy-blue martial arts uniform, pushed open the door and walked down, looking at the nineteen-story building. It was a modern landmark among the woods where buildings were generally low and old.
"Si Jiating has been transforming and cleaning up his business in recent years and started to get involved in real estate, which he developed in partnership with several companies..." Zhang Xiaozi introduced.
Before she finished speaking, her eyes suddenly widened, she pointed to the opposite side and said:
"Si Jian Ting!"
Lou Cheng raised his eyes and saw an old man with a stiff outline and a hooked nose walking out of the door of Lin Fu Building surrounded by seven or eight bodyguards and subordinates. His eyes were sharp and cold as he looked around.
This is Si Jianting... In the taxi, Lou Cheng saw the photos of the other party taken by Zhang Xiaozi on his mobile phone, but did not exchange anything about it.
Lou Cheng was more concerned about the two bodyguards standing next to him than Chi Jianting. One had dark skin and facial features that were characteristic of the war-torn areas in the south. The other had muscles holding up his T-shirt. Every step he took was not too long.
The length is just right, as if measured with a ruler.
They are all alchemy realm warriors. As for their specific grades, it is difficult to judge from their appearance.
"The two of them are very strong. Without them, Si Jinting would not be alive today. The dark-skinned one is called Weisen. He is a freelance killer in the war-torn area. Later, he was seriously injured and was taken in by Si Jinting and became his
At his peak, he was said to have a strength close to the sixth level. The muscular man was named Huang Chengda. His strength was slightly worse than Weisen, but he was also a warrior who had seen a lot of blood in war-torn areas." Zhang Xiaozi repeated the information collected by Li Zhenhua.
, "Senior, don't be careless, they must have guns hidden on their bodies, large-caliber ones..."
As she spoke, she murmured anxiously to herself: "Where are they going? Going home?"
"Ask the people at the police station here." Lou Cheng calmly ordered.
"Okay." Zhang Xiaozi quickly took out her mobile phone and asked a few questions, but her expression suddenly became extremely bad.
She turned her head and said anxiously to Lou Cheng: "Si Jinting is going south to discuss business... The people at the police station said there is no evidence or clues, so they can't stop him... Senior, he, he wants to run away!"
Of course the south is the border!
As soon as Si Jianting ran away, Li Zhenhua would probably disappear forever...
"But there's no evidence..." Lou Cheng saw two black cars driving to the door of the building. He saw Weisen running forward and opening the rear door of the second car, while Huang Chengda protected Si Jianting and moved closer.
He thought for a while, dialed his master's phone number, and recounted the current situation in a concise and concise manner.
"You decide for yourself." Old Man Shi said with a sense of gloating.
"What's the bottom line?" Lou Cheng asked rhetorically.
Old Man Shi pondered for a few seconds, coughed twice and said:
