Behind Me Is the Earth

Chapter 492 490 Using Force to Suppress Others The Situation Is Critical

It was dawn.

Jinshan City woke up.

The night of drunkenness and dreaming of the powerful and wealthy businessmen buried in the soft body of the beautiful woman on Jinshan Lake passed.

The people began a new day of reincarnation.

"It is difficult to eat all day and have nothing to do."

Ren Pingsheng sighed as he watched the ships approaching the shore, and the playboys in luxurious clothes were supported by the servants waiting on the shore to go home.

These nobles in Jinshan City were like canaries kept in captivity, living on the family business passed down for more than ten generations, but now for Qi State, they were like Pixiu who occupied a large amount of fertile land, mansions, and wealth, but only took in and did not give out, without any benefit to the country, no return to the people, and no development for themselves.

Ren Pingsheng frowned at such a group.

After getting off the boat, Ren Pingsheng took his two wives out to visit the scenery along the Jinshan Lake. Then, in the ancient alleys, they found a breakfast shop full of fireworks and history.

"Master, your soup dumplings~"

Crab roe soup dumplings are a local specialty.

The hairy crabs caught from Jinshan Lake are the most delicious and plump.

However, now is not the time to eat hairy crabs.

"Where does the crab roe come from in this season?"

Ren Pingsheng asked the shopkeeper.

"Sir, our crab roe is marinated with secret ingredients, made into crab roe paste, and then stored in the cold storage.

It tastes fresh and fragrant, but it is a must in this Nandu City!"

The shopkeeper said proudly.

"It tastes really good."

Ren Pingsheng praised.

Take a bite of the thin bun skin, suck the crab roe in it, and then eat it with the bun skin and the meat inside. The fresh and fragrant taste explodes between the lips and teeth, swallow it bite by bite, and even the fragrance of the buns remains in the throat.

While eating, he looked at the Xicheng County Office, which was across the street not far away.

In his observation, the county office was in a state of looseness on the outside and tightness on the inside.

The two platoons of militiamen who went on a mission last night stayed in the county office and did not return to the camp.

The interrogation in Mengjin last night did not come to a conclusion, but only provided a few more clues.

Those strong men with guns were from a rickshaw driver's guild in Jinshan County.

This gang was newly established, and it seemed that some people who pulled carts and rode bicycles to do work were absorbed. But this gang was not so simple. Although these members also pulled carts, they were all strong men, and they often worked together to do some robbery and other work.

Moreover, the gang would occasionally issue some tasks such as kidnapping. Including this transaction, it was also handed down from above.

As a leader in the gang, the strong man also explained that there were people above the gang who controlled the gang, and these guns were also sent by the people above, in order to use them when doing some tricky black work.

But the strong man only knew that the people above were very powerful and had great means in the government.

But he really didn't know who they were.

He didn't know the dozen people caught last night.

These people were a group of thugs raised by the organization above to do dirty work.

It can be seen that the organization behind this rickshaw driver's guild is very thorough!

Before it got dark, the government office had drawn people from the militia camp to arrest the head of the rickshaw driver's guild.

But the guild head was as sharp as a rabbit. When he found that his subordinates who went out to trade did not report within the prescribed time, he immediately smelled the danger and escaped before them.

Such sensitivity made the militia camp empty-handed.

"Send the note in."

Ren Pingsheng tore a piece from the oil paper bag, wrote a few words on it, rolled it into a ball, and threw it to Han Jun.

Han Jun took the glass ball-sized paper ball, walked out of the shop and walked to the street not far away, climbed up to the second floor of a tea shop, and flicked his fingers when he walked over the railing.

The paper ball, with its energy, shot into the county government office, breaking a window that had just had its glass replaced.

Not long after Han Jun returned to the bun shop, he saw several people running out of the county government office to look for people on the street.

Not long after, the man named Zhou Xun from last night took a dozen militiamen out, rode on a large crossbeam bicycle, and hurried out of the city. These people were very strong and had great endurance. The wheels of the bicycles turned very fast. In the sound of "ding-ling-ling" bicycle bells, the people dodged one after another and left the city soon.

The official road outside still used the old stone slabs, but after countless years of walking and countless feet running in for a long time, the stones had already been smoothed and became smooth.

"Brothers, hurry up, don't let people beat the time difference!"

Zhou Xun rushed to the front and stood up to pedal, and the bicycle chain wanted to send sparks.

As they rushed all the way, they soon arrived at a Buddhist temple.

At this time, the Buddhist temple had just opened, and people from the city came here to eat vegetarian food.

A Buddhist temple was surprisingly lively.

A group of militiamen carrying long guns ran in, causing a big commotion.

Suddenly, a bell rang in the temple.

When Zhou Xun rushed into a room, a fake monk wearing brown monk's robes climbed out of the bed with a look of fear. He was immediately pinned down on the bed again by several men like wolves and tigers, and he was muzzled. At the same time, he took out the rope and tied him with a big five-flowered tie. The rope buckle hit his back. He was hugged by Zhou Xunti and walked out the door.

He threw it on the back seat of the bicycle and headed into the city.

The great monk who was standing on the bell tower and ringing the bell stopped, touched his bare head, and looked at the bicycle team that was quickly leaving: "The poor monk has done everything he should do, and it doesn't count as cheating on the donor's money.

Amitabha!

well? Host, why are you here? "

The great monk looked at the host who rushed up angrily in surprise, and was kicked to the ground by the host.

"Grass mud horse!"

The host didn't even explain. He scolded and kicked him: "You bad guy!"

While the great monk was being beaten in a daze, the bicycle quickly headed towards the city.

In the peach trees on the roadside, several people wearing black clothes and face coverings were lying on the ground, staring closely at the group of people riding bicycles.

"Fuck me!"

The person at the front stared outside, raised his hand and waved to the person behind him.

Suddenly, no movement was heard.

He turned around and saw that all five of his men were pressed tightly to the ground, their heads raised with frightened expressions on their faces. Their fingers were clasped tightly on the ground, but they could not move at all!

"You...you guys!!"

He was so frightened that he turned over and jumped up.

"Boss...save..."

The five men made hoarse sounds in their throats. They raised their arms in fear, pulled out the daggers from their boots, and thrust them into each other's chests with a few "sniffing" sounds.

Then, they finished their lives in fear.

The boss was so frightened that he knelt on the ground. He took off the turban on his head, revealing a leopard head, and kowtowed with a "bang bang bang" sound: "Spare me, I don't know who the little demon has offended." Sir, the little demon only takes people’s money to eliminate disasters for them..."

"Disaster relief?"

A voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

The voice was neither salty nor bland, and no emotion could be heard.

"Who sent you?"

the voice asked.

"It's Lord Chen Xun of the Military and Horse Division!"

The leopard-headed man didn't hesitate at all and immediately sold the person behind him.

"Chen Xun? Where are you?"

The man asked again.

"It's at Jinyan Villa outside the city, not far from Dongjue Temple."

Leopard Head immediately said: "It should still be there now. Xiaoyao and we usually live in Jinyan Villa. Lord Chen Xun came to us this morning and asked us to obey their orders for the next two days."

"Crack!"

There was a crisp sound, and the leopard's head had been broken.

Jinyan Villa occupies a large area and is easy to find.

After Ren Pingsheng focused his attention here, he immediately discovered that there was something special about it.

Many warriors and monsters were raised here.

Chen Xun was also easy to find. He was sitting on the fishing platform, fishing for silver carp in the lake.

He really has the demeanor of a master hermit.

An organization is intertwined. As long as the first button of the network is untied, the rest is often like the pull string on a flour bag, which will open with one pull.

Ren Pingsheng continued to notify the Xicheng County Government Office of Chen Xun's news by means of a note, and continued to watch the case behind the scenes.

But in Xicheng County Government, Meng Jin was very worried at this time.

"Mr. Meng has been mobilizing militia camps frequently since last night. This move is not small."

A young man in a green official robe held a tea cup and said to Meng Jin: "The Governor heard that it was a case about Qingguo?"

"good!"

Meng Jin nodded.

His mind was spinning, guessing how the news was leaked.

Qingguo's clue was probably leaked at the hospital.

It only took a while for the composition analysis report of those green powders to be delivered to him.

The green fruit content in the powder is quite high! It is significantly destructive and addictive to the body.

"The case of green fruit, which is expressly banned by the imperial court, is definitely not a small one! It actually appeared in our Chujiang Province. If it is not handled properly, it will definitely be a major case that shocks the whole country.

The Governor has ordered that the relevant personnel in this case be immediately transferred to the Governor's Yamen for investigation and handling by the Governor.

Mr. Meng, thank you for your hard work. With the governor personally investigating the case, the facts of the case will surely come to light soon, and Mr. Meng will certainly have a share of the credit when the time comes! "

The green-robed official said.

"Master Li, you're welcome."

Meng Jin saw this scene, his mind was spinning rapidly, but he didn't know how to reject this person.

After all, the governor of a province is the second or third person in the entire Chujiang Province. His power is so great that within a province, he can almost turn his hands into clouds and rain. As a mere county magistrate, he is still in front of others. It’s really not enough to watch.

But he felt unwilling to hand over the case like this.

Meng Jinzheng said: "Master Li, after one night of interrogation, the person behind this is very cautious, and until now, he has not obtained any strong clues.

But we have captured the head of the car dealership. I also studied torture in the military academy. I think there will be a breakthrough soon. When the time comes, I will hand it over to the Governor, which will save some effort. "

"What... No! The governor has said that this matter is not negotiable. Do you not listen to the governor's orders?"

When Lord Li heard this, his attitude suddenly became very firm.

"How dare I."

Meng Jin stood up quickly: "Lord Li, please wait here. I will go to the militia to arrange the transfer."

After that, he bowed to Lord Li and hurried out.

"Sir, we just found a breakthrough, and the governor came to pick peaches. Isn't it obvious that he wants to rob us of our credit!"

Zhou Xun said angrily.

Meng Jin fell into deep thought.

"Sir?"

Zhou Xun shouted softly.

"This Lord Li has a strange attitude!"

Meng Jin frowned and said.

"Why is it strange?"

Zhou Xun was puzzled.

"After hearing that the head of the car dealership was caught by us, his expression was shocked at first, and then his attitude became unusually tough.

Although his expression was subtle, I have studied torture, and nothing could escape my eyes.

But what was he shocked about?"

Meng Jin asked.

Zhou Xun was also shocked when he heard this, and boldly guessed: "Could this case be related to Lord Li?"

"It can't be ruled out!"

Meng Jin looked back at the house.

He was even bolder, and the governor Yue was included in his suspicion.

But he didn't say it.

"Then we can't hand these people over."

Zhou Xun said.

"A higher official can crush people, not to mention that Yue Lang is a ministerial official!"

Meng Yunbo, who had been silent, said sadly at this time.

"Has the secret letter handed to Lord Xijian been sent out this morning?"

Meng Jin asked him.

Meng Yunbo said, "It has been sent by train. But if we wait until the secret letter is delivered to Lord Xijian and then wait for the imperial envoy to come, will it be too late?"

Meng Jin did not answer, but he continued to speed up and walked towards the prison.

Just as he reached the prison door, a paper ball suddenly rolled to his feet.

He bent down and picked up the paper ball calmly.

"Another secret letter thrown by the mysterious person?"

Zhou Xun looked around and moved his ears slightly, but he could not find the person who threw the paper ball.

Meng Jin opened the paper ball and there were two words on it.

"Chen Xun!"

"Chen Xun of the Military Affairs Department?"

The few people looked at each other and could see panic in each other's eyes.

"Is this Chen Xun also related to the organization behind this gun and green fruit case?"

"Although Chen Xun has been deprived of his military power, he still has a private army under his command.

It is said that they are quite powerful."

They seemed to have walked into a dangerous dead end. A tightly woven net seemed to want to trap them while revealing the tip of the iceberg.

It made them feel suffocated.

"What should we do?"

Meng Yunbo was a little impatient.

"First try the case, and put the rest aside. We don't have much time left!"

Meng Jin walked towards the prison while constantly thinking about what external force he could find to break the situation.

He even thought about this powerful person who kept throwing paper balls and sending clues, but he had no clue about the other party.

At present, it seems that he can only rely on himself. (End of this chapter)
