Keyboard Immortal - Chapter 1040
[Chapter 1040 The mysterious man of the round table]
When I first heard about the Zhenyuan Chamber of Commerce, when investigating the case of Shen Zhou, I learned that he was investigating the smuggling case of the Zhenyuan Chamber of Commerce during his lifetime.
However, Zu An knew that Shen Zhou died near the capital. At that time, he should be on the way to Beijing to report the letter, and it was impossible to investigate any smuggling cases.
And the charred corpse that was burned to death in the warehouse in the smuggling case was not a sinking boat, so he didn’t care too much about the Zhenyuan Chamber of Commerce.
But as the follow-up investigation continued, it was discovered that the shadow of the Zhenyuan Chamber of Commerce would appear from time to time. Until now, knowing that the monster master might also be hiding in the Zhenyuan Chamber of Commerce, he knew that there was definitely something wrong with the Chamber of Commerce.
“I’ll go to Zhenyuan Chamber of Commerce with you to investigate.” Zaan said.
Qiu Honglei was a little surprised: “Won’t it delay your business?”
Zuan shook his head: “It’s okay, I just have to check some things.”
Qiu Honglei’s head was on his arm, and his eyes were smiling. The crescent moon: “Azu, you are so kind to me.”
Zuan patted her hand, and the two talked about their respective lives after parting.
I unknowingly came to the vicinity of the Zhenyuan Chamber of Commerce. In fact, strictly speaking, many stores in Yunzhong City are owned by the Zhenyuan Chamber of Commerce, so they cover a huge area.
However, according to the information obtained by Qiu Honglei, that Kong Qing should be hidden in the general meeting.
The two wandered around like a couple near the headquarters, secretly checking the guards of the chamber of commerce, recording their shift patterns, and so on.
After some investigation, Zuan was secretly shocked: “Is this Zhenyuan Chamber of Commerce going to the sky? The guards around are more exaggerated than those in the county governor’s mansion and the City Lord’s Mansion.”
Qiu Hong replied with tears: “The Zhenyuan Chamber of Commerce was originally The scale is huge, they have branches all over the world, and Yunzhong County is where their headquarters is located, which is naturally more exaggerated than other places.”
Zaan hesitated, wondering if it would be safer to send troops to investigate. some?
However, the movement of troops was too loud, and he had no evidence in his hands. If nothing could be found in the end, there would be a lot of trouble in the future.
After all, leading troops to search such a large taxpayer of the imperial court for no reason has caused such a bad impact.
So he decided to go check it out first to see the situation.
Soon the two of them waited until night, Qiu Honglei wanted to go in, but was stopped by Zu An: “You wait outside, after all, that Kong Qing can escape from your master, and his cultivation must be very high, and this Zhenyuan Chamber of Commerce must be very high. With such a large scale, there must be many experts guarding it.”
Qiu Honglei snorted, obviously dissatisfied: “I am also a dignified saint, and I still have the ability to protect myself.”
“This time is really different,” Zuan said in a deep voice, “This time not only involves the killing of the elders in your sect, but also involves the great changes in the officialdom of Yunzhong County, which is definitely not simple, even I have to be careful when I enter, I will not be sure to protect you at that time. With Qiu Honglei
‘s talent and resources, she will definitely become the top expert in the world with time, but she is too young, and she has only been practicing for ten years after she has been fully calculated. How do monsters compare.
This time, he was facing a master at the master level, and he couldn’t figure out what was going on inside, and he didn’t dare to let her take the risk.
Hearing his cautious tone, Qiu Hong Lei thought about it and nodded, “It’s fine, so as not to go in and drag you down. Well, I will meet you outside. If I sense that you are in danger, I will make some outside. Move them to distract them.”
If it was just her, she might have gone, but with Zaun, if he really got into trouble, that’s something she didn’t want to see.
Zuan squeezed her cheek with a smile, and when he was about to sneak in, Qiu Honglei suddenly grabbed him and gave him a lantern in his hand: “Take this with you, this thing is called Xiaochang The letter palace lantern, once lit, can imprison the creatures within a radius of several meters, of course, if the target has a high cultivation level, it can’t help it, but it can also slow down the opponent’s actions, and you can take self-defense.”
She was about to teach the other party how to use this little long letter palace lantern, but Zuan had already pushed her hand back:
“Don’t worry, with my current cultivation level, I can’t use this, this is your trump card, You still have to defend yourself, and you will have to respond to me later, in case some masters come to besiege you, I will be relieved if you have this thing.”
Seeing his calm tone and the calmness in his eyes, Qiu Hong burst into tears. He pursed his lips and stopped insisting: “I forgot that your current cultivation base has not been what it used to be, or you have to be careful.”
Zaan nodded, and took advantage of the gap between the guards who just patrolled and left.
The guards outside had easily breached their defenses because they had observed the pattern during the day.
However, as he went deeper, he clearly felt that the guards inside were getting stricter.
In many hidden places, there are secret whistle-blowers who secretly observe the audience, and they will warn if there is any disturbance.
“A Chamber of Commerce is so mysterious.” Zaan frowned, feeling more and more that Zhenyuan Chamber of Commerce would have problems.
Of course, with his current cultivation, and Yu Cong’s ability to open the perspective, it is not difficult to avoid these dark whistles.
But there are too many houses in the Zhenyuan Chamber of Commerce, and Zaan searched for a while and found nothing.
He quickly stopped looking for a needle in a haystack, and hid in the shadow of an attic. At the same time, he used the jade cong to expand his influence, mobilizing all the small animals of the Zhenyuan Chamber of Commerce and asking them to help find it.
Of course, with the IQ of those little animals, it must be difficult to understand how to find a demon master, but Zaun doesn’t need them to understand, just use them to be afraid.
The other party is a monster master-level figure, and these small animals are actually monsters in a broad sense, but they are just low-level beasts without consciousness.
Therefore, those monsters naturally have the coercion of the superiors over the inferiors to these small animals. Once they approach a certain range, these small animals will perceive extreme fear, so that he will understand where the target is.
Those little animals began to wander around the houses of the Zhenyuan Chamber of Commerce all over the place, making the guards in the house very strange, thinking that they have hit an evil today.
But everyone didn’t care too much, just thought these little guys were too hungry to come out to find food.
The search continued, and after about a stick of incense, there was finally a result.
Zaan opened his eyes and looked at a yard a few hundred meters away. It was pitch-dark, and all the small animals dared not go there. Even the cats and mice that passed by were shivering.
“It’s you!” Zuan pointed his toes, and the whole person was like a night owl, silently flying over there.
The whole yard was quiet, but Zuan didn’t dare to be careless. He took the white concubine’s sachet to suppress the breath extremely low, and then used “Der Jingfeitai” to cover up the faint fluctuations of vitality, and then he slowly touched it. go in.
Although the other party is a grandmaster, it is not that he has never fought a grandmaster, or even more powerful ones.
He is now at the peak of the ninth rank, plus various secret books and strange skills, if he encounters a master, even if he fights alone, he will not suffer much.
Along the way, he searched carefully, worrying about the existence of the dark sentry, but after searching for a long time, he found that there was not a single guard.
He was quickly relieved that there were top experts of the monster clan living here.
So he quickened his speed and came to the central room.
Before posting it, I heard the faint voice of a conversation inside.
“Huh? Isn’t there more than one person?” Zu An moved inwardly, and his footsteps were suddenly hesitant.
He should be able to cope with only one monster clan master, but if there are more masters, it will be troublesome.
But in the end, he couldn’t hold back his curiosity. Since there was someone talking, he might be able to overhear many secrets about Zuo Su’s murder and uncover the mystery of Yunzhong County.
As for a few more people to protect themselves with his current cultivation base, it shouldn’t be a big problem.
There can’t be several masters in it, right?
He came to the edge of the window, poked a hole lightly, and peered in.
There were no lights inside, and it was dark, but with his current cultivation, he could barely see the scene inside.
I saw that there was no other furniture in the hall, only a large round table was left.
The round table is very large, more than ten times larger than the normal table.
There were very few people sitting around, only 5 people in the count.
They are very far apart from each other, and they seem to be jealous of each other. No wonder this chair has to be made so big.
And each of them was wrapped in a wide black robe.
Zu An thought that the previous TV dramas were indeed deceptive. At that time, when he saw those who were masked and blindfolded, and what was even more exaggerated was that people around them would not recognize them when they wore glasses, he thought that if he was in the game, he would definitely be able to recognize them easily. out them.
But now Zaan is really confused, because these people’s disguise is so good, they can’t see their appearance at all, and they can’t even tell their gender!
“These guys are sneaky, and it looks like an illegal assembly.” When Zuan was complaining, someone inside said:
“Why did you want to kill Zuo Su?”
