Chapter 58 Sword Tide(1/2)

Outside Asakura Gambling, the red-clothed alley after the rain was as quiet as quails.

In the dark night, the lights in Luocheng were extinguished, and only hundreds of secret spies held torches, blocking the Red Alley to search for the whereabouts of the spy.

At this time, the arrogant and arrogant official was being wrapped around and tied up by a circle of iron ropes as thick as his fingers and kneeling on the ground.

This man was amazing in his practice of kung fu. He was besieged by hundreds of secret spies and could fight for half an hour.

However, as Old Man Yao said, no matter how powerful an officer in this world is, he is afraid of military formations. Don’t think that if he is powerful, he will be invincible in the world. Power is the most powerful thing in this world.

The golden pig lifted up the hem of the clothes, picked up the broken blue cloak on the ground and put it on the official, and squatted down on the opposite side with a smile: "The official of the Zhao family in Hezhou, Zhao Zhong. I remember that you were the guard of a young man of the Xu family, but now you have fallen to the point of working hard for Jing Chao? Or... the Xu family is also involved today?"

Zhao Zhong's face turned pale: "Eunuch Party, hawk, bah!"

He spitted towards the Golden Pig's face. The Golden Pig seemed to have been prepared to take out a folding fan from his arms and stretched it out to block it in front of him.

The Golden Pig was not angry, but said with a smile: "The officials who were passed down from generation to generation in the Zhao family are now just prisoners. They will be taken to the inner prison. Sooner or later, you will be asked to spit out the path of cultivation to the inner minister and take them away!"

After saying that, he stood up and looked at the secret spies standing quietly with torches: "Today's victory, brothers will take the people to the inner prison and rest early. When they wake up tomorrow, I will invite everyone to the Baxianlou to eat the best table in Luocheng!"

The confidant spy on the side whispered, "Sir, Chen Ji has been chased out and is still missing."

The golden pig slapped his forehead and whispered: "Oh, I almost forgot him. An apprentice in a small clinic was hunted by a spy, and he was about to die. The inner minister just promoted him to the secret spy department and died at my hands the next day. When others knew about it, they thought I was jealous of the virtuous and capable. Hurry up and go find him, so I can save his life!"

However, as soon as he finished speaking loudly, the Golden Pig turned around and whispered to the secret spy beside him: "Although it's okay for him to hold the spy detective and fall down the second floor, after that, he didn't think about going back to the gambling house to meet us, but instead ran outside... Now even if someone says he is going to report the message to the Jingchao Military Information Department, I believe it. We must send someone to find him tonight, and we must see the person alive and the body alive!"

"Sir, what if he is still alive?"

"Then let him tell me what he did tonight and why he didn't come back to meet us!"

"Sir, what if I die?"

"If you die, just die, be buried."

The secret spy was puzzled: "Sir, aren't you going to invest in him?"

Jinzhu rolled his eyes at the confidant: "Of course, I really want to invest. Do you know the value of being selected by the internal minister to enter the Spy Department? But I can't invest in a Jingchao spy detective or a dead person!"

...

...

There is a unique smell of earth in the air after the rain.

Chen Ji was sneaking quietly against the shadows of gray walls and gray tiles. He was already soaked in the rain that he felt that his clothes were stained with water were getting colder and colder.

He opened the cloth strip that he bandaged the wound and saw that the flesh on the edge of the wound had been soaked in white. If he was not treated in time, he might have a serious illness.

But he has no time to treat his injuries now? After escaping from the gambling house, no matter how realistic he acted, the Golden Pig would inevitably be suspicious.

If he cannot explain his whereabouts afterwards, it will be truly fatal.

At this moment, Chen Ji did not return to Taiping Medical Center, but wanted to return to the alley where he killed the Jing Chao spy, forged the scene of the fight, pretended to be fighting and fainted there after he was fighting.

etc.

Chen Ji suddenly stood there, and he always felt that he had missed some details, which were very likely to cause him to be exposed.

What is it?

What exactly is it!

Chen Ji suddenly looked down at the wound on his chest, and then realized what the details he had missed were.

But he saw him picking up the long knife that Jing Chao spy explored, carefully cut a hole on his right thigh, and then he continued to rush.

Chen Ji staggered, and from time to time he had to avoid the beating people passing by on the street. He only felt that he was getting weaker and weaker, so weak that he could hardly open his eyes.

At one moment, he was wondering whether it was worth it if he had suffered injuries tonight but failed to solve the hidden dangers?

To him, Wu Hongbiao suddenly appeared as if he had jumped out of a stone, which caught him off guard.

Did Wu Hongbiao lie? Chen Ji tended to not.

The two sides immediately fought together as soon as they met. At that time, Wu Hongbiao still had the power to fight and did not need to be disguised at all.

But after recognizing Chen Ji, he immediately relaxed and fell to the ground, throwing his knife, which was equivalent to handing his life to Chen Ji.

A person who risked his life to inform him, even if Chen Ji never knew him and had no feelings for him, he still couldn't do anything.

The law-abiding and the strong men sing every night. Although this era is certainly pathological, he is not a person from this era after all.

Seeing that alley was getting closer and closer... Just when there was a street intersection away from that alley, Chen Ji saw a fire coming from a distance, as if someone was holding a torch to look for something.

He quickly hid in the shadows under the wall and quickly thought about countermeasures.

The visitor must be the spy department. If he just walked over like this, he would definitely run into the other party.

Do you want to retreat directly?

No, he had to go back to that alley to make things happen tonight.

Chen Ji climbed up to the roof with difficulty and carefully tilted his waist to avoid searching. Several times when a secret spy looked at the roof, he could only lie down first and crawl forward slowly.

Time passed by minute by minute, and Chen Ji's physical strength would be exhausted.

Finally, the alley was near in front of him, and he slid quietly down the wall. But when he landed, he felt his feet soft and fell into the water.

Excessive blood loss and exhaustion.

Chen Ji struggled to get up, dragged Jing Chao spy out of the pile of debris, and pretended to be traces of fighting around him.

Then he fiddled with the body of the spy Jing Chao, so that both sides could recover from the position of him strangling the other party with a scabbard and lying on the ground, pretending that he was killing someone and fainting due to his serious injuries.

However, his injuries were not serious enough to eliminate the suspicion of the Golden Pig!

A trace of determination flashed in Chen Ji's eyes. He held the dagger in the hands of Jing Chao's spy, and he held Jing Chao's spy's hand, swung the knife hard to stab the wound that had been cut before on his thigh until the dagger reached the hilt!

In an instant, a heart-wrenching pain came.

Chen Ji's whole body was convulsed, and the cold sweat on his forehead fell like soybeans.

But from beginning to end, he gritted his teeth without making any sound.

Not only that, Chen Ji also held the accumulated water on the ground in his hand and kept pouring it on the wound, so that the blood seeping out of the wound would not appear before and after the rain.

Chen Ji forced himself to do all this until he saw the fires scattering outside the alley in a daze, so he slowly closed his eyes and relaxed his mind, and he really fainted.

...

...

I don’t know how long it has passed, the Golden Pig, guided by the secret spy, squatted down next to Chen Ji to check.

He first opened Chen Ji's eyelids, took a torch and shook it in front of Chen Ji's eyes: "The eyelids did not tremble, and the pupils contracted slowly... I'm really unconscious."

The golden pig touched Jing Chaosai's wound on the neck again: "I strangled with a scabbard, and stabbed the kid in the thigh before he died... Unexpectedly, this kid could actually kill the spy detective alone. I underestimated him."

The Golden Pig changed the topic: "But Jing leaned towards the spy far beyond ordinary people. How did this kid win? Is it true that the good guy has his own heaven... Wait, untied Chen Ji's clothes, I want to check the wound. He is very likely to have left halfway and come back to repair the injury."

The next moment, the secret spy tore open Chen Ji's pants and top, revealing the knife wound inside, but saw that both knife wounds were white and swollen due to long-term soaking in water.

Fortunately, Chen Ji cut a hole in his leg in advance and let it soak and swell. Otherwise, if the Golden Pig finds that the wound is a new injury, it will inevitably be exposed.

This is the detail that Chen Ji almost missed.

The secret spy said to the Golden Pig: "Sir, the knife wound has been injured for a while, and there is no fake. If you are holding such a knife wound on your leg, you cannot move freely. He should have fainted here after fighting with the spy detective."

Jinzhu breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems that there is really no problem... Could it be that I am too suspicious?"

"Sir, what should I do now? Do you want to send him to heal?"

"No," Jinzhu shook his head: "Come to the prison and ask the doctor to go to the prison to treat him. If he wakes up, he will tell me the first time that I have something to ask him. When people are weak, it is most likely to ask for things."

"clear."

However, at this moment, a voice came from outside the alley: "My sir, have you ever seen my apprentice? She is thin and tall, wearing a black dress."

The golden pig narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the entrance of the alley, but saw the white-bearded old man Yao standing at the entrance of the alley, asking about the secret spy.

As he was asking, Old Man Yao turned to look into the alley and frowned: "Sir Jinzhu, why have you come to Luocheng too?"

"Good evening for Doctor Yao, come to find his disciple in the middle of the night?" Jinzhu walked forward with a smile, blocking Chen Ji behind him.

Old Man Yao walked over step by step and asked, "Did you see my apprentice?"

"No," Jinzhu shook his head: "Doctor Yao will go to other places to look for it."

"Who is behind Lord Golden Pig?" Old Man Yao had already walked up to the front and looked at Chen Ji lying on the ground: "Isn't this my apprentice? Why is Lord Golden Pig lying? Why is he lying here?"

Jinzhu said awkwardly: "Hahahaha, it turns out that he is your apprentice. I didn't know about it before. He was injured by Jing Chao's evil man, and I was about to send him to heal."

Old Man Yao nodded: "Then please send two secret spies to carry him back to Taiping Hospital."

The golden pig subconsciously said, "No."

Old Man Yao was puzzled: "Where is there any place in Luocheng that is more effective than my Taiping Medical Center? Could it be that my apprentice who committed the matter?"

The Golden Pig hesitated for a moment: "I didn't commit any crime, but I made contributions."

Old Man Yao breathed a sigh of relief, but his tone was solemn: "If he committed a crime, Lord Jinzhu can handle it at will, but if he did not commit a crime, then I will write to the inner minister and ask him what the reason is that the spy department detained my apprentice."

The Golden Pig was silent for a long time and finally waved to the secret spy: "Help Doctor Yao carry Chen Ji back."

He stood in the alley, looking at Old Man Yao's back as he walked away, frowned.
