I, seal everything

Chapter 144 200~201 Ice and Snow, Encountered Halfway

After the words fell, Master Huang's tiger eyes showed hesitation, and most of the people present exchanged glances, but no one responded.

Including Chen Zheng, they also kept their eyes on their noses, their noses and their hearts, and didn't say a word.

With the "Thunder Zen Shocking Technique", he has been obsessed with cultivation recently, and he doesn't know how much time it will take to go, of course he doesn't want to be distracted.

As for the entire Supervisory Department, except for Huang Shihu who pursued and was still loyal to his duties, the other three inspectors were all dead bodies, and no one asked for it.

Seeing that no one responded, Liu Yuanming was immediately annoyed:
"No one wants to go? If that's the case, I'll assign it directly!"

The people present remained silent.

Liu Yuanming couldn't bear it anymore, his gaze fell on Chen Zheng after looking around:
"Chen Zheng, I plan to entrust you with this task, is there a problem?"

Ok?
Unexpectedly, he would be picked, Chen Zheng frowned, and said:
"Your Excellency's appointment, the subordinates should obey, but after all, the subordinates have only come to the Supervision Department not long ago, and they have relatively little experience in tracking down evil spirits and the like. In this regard."

Liu Yuanming obviously thought about it, and immediately waved his hand:

"I see your ability in my eyes, so don't belittle yourself. The reason why you are arranged is also based on strength considerations. After all, according to Li Hongda's information, the troublemakers in Liangshan County are not easy to deal with, whether they are cult monsters or evil monsters. Let me go and feel more at ease."

Except for Teng Qilong, the inspectors looked a little complicated.

The incident at the birthday banquet at the Lei Ting Martial Arts Field spread like wildfire, and they didn't know that Chen Zheng had already achieved an astonishing cultivation level of three blood exchanges.

Liu Yuanming, the immediate boss, has spent 30 years as a commander, and has only changed blood three times so far. How old is Chen Zheng?

At this age and this state, the future is unimaginable, and the small temple of the Supervision Department must not be able to accommodate him for too long, and they naturally feel inferior.

Speaking of this, Chen Zheng couldn't find any more excuses, so he could only agree:

"Master Liu is over the award, since this is the case, the subordinates are going to have a..."

"and many more."

However, at this time, a casual voice suddenly sounded:
"Master Liu, I'm also interested in this case, why don't you let me go with Inspector Chen?"

The one who spoke was obviously Teng Qilong who had been fascinated just now.

Ok?
I didn't expect that the second generation ancestor would take the initiative to take the initiative. No matter whether Chen Zheng or others were present, they were extremely surprised.

Surprise flashed in Liu Yuanming's eyes:
"You want to go too? Liangshan County is not too far away, but the situation there is quite complicated. Let's say at least ten days and half a month."

Teng Qilong ignored everyone's surprised eyes and smiled slightly:
"It's okay, I've been in Lingqiu County for a long time, and I also want to go out for activities."

With Teng Qilong's status, he can't control what he wants to do.

But to buy a good thing, Liu Yuanming was also happy to push the boat, and waved his hand:
"In this case, you can go with Chen Zheng, you can discuss on your own, and leave tomorrow!"

Teng Qilong cupped his hands casually.

Chen Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked away from the immobile opponent, and said in response:

"Yes."

Afterwards, everyone dispersed.

"Inspector Chen."

Just as Chen Zheng came out of the conference hall, Teng Qilong stopped him behind him, and asked with a smile:
"Since we share the same mission, shall we set off together tomorrow?"

Teng Qilong had a high opinion of the Supervision Department, and even Liu Qiming didn't pay much attention to it. It was undoubtedly a bit abnormal to behave like this. Chen Zheng raised his eyebrows:

"Okay, how about starting from here at three o'clock tomorrow?"

"Okay, then tomorrow at three o'clock."

Teng Qilong nodded, turned and left without further words.

After his figure was gone, Huang Shihu walked up to Chen Zheng behind him, with doubts in his eyes:
"The sun came out from the west today? Why does Teng Qilong insist on going on missions with you?"

Chen Zheng also frowned slightly:

"I don't know, is it because I'm bored?"

Huang Shihu thought for a while, and reminded in a low voice:

"It's hard to say. A noble boy like Teng Qilong has a surly temper and is not a kind person. Be careful on the road and try to avoid conflicts with him."

The other party obviously had good intentions, Chen Zheng nodded slightly:

"thanks for reminding."

After chatting for a few words, Huang Shihu also took his leave and left, while Chen Zheng narrowed his eyes and his thoughts were flying.

He had a faint feeling that Teng Qilong's sudden involvement was not out of the blue, but rather for some other purpose.

However, the other party has a prominent background and looks down on their colleagues at all.

In the month since he joined the Supervision Department, he had only met the other party a few times in total, and he hadn't spoken more than five sentences. He couldn't think of the other party's purpose for a while.

"never mind."

After thinking about it, Chen Zheng turned around and went to gather four subordinates to make preparations.

In a blink of an eye, a day passed.

Early the next morning.

Gray lead clouds were densely covered, and heavy snow fell between the sky and the earth, covering the whole city.

On the avenue, a layer of ice and snow has accumulated covering the feet, everywhere is covered with silver, dazzling white.

When Chen Zheng braved the wind and snow to come to the Supervision Department, he saw that Chai Tiefeng, Changqing and others were already at the gate of the government office, ready to go.

After the four subordinates greeted each other, Chen Zheng asked:
"Where are the Tengqilong people, haven't they come yet?"

Chang Qing shook his head and said, "Not yet."

Not long before the agreed departure time, Chen Zheng frowned: "Then just wait."

However, after waiting, a full two quarters of an hour passed.

More than a quarter of an hour passed the appointed time, when Chen Zheng became more and more impatient, and in the bitter cold wind and heavy snow, he saw a horse team arriving late.

I saw Teng Qilong wearing a big cloak, sitting on a handsome black horse, followed by nearly ten riders.

In addition to the four attendants, there were actually two pretty maids disguised as men, following around.

The attendants and maids seem to be the servants of the Teng family.

The other empty horses were carrying blankets, tents, wine jars and other miscellaneous things on their backs.

Teng Qilong galloped up to the waiting people and said with a smile:

"Commander Chen, I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

After waiting for a long time in the wind and snow, Chang Qing and the others dared not express any dissatisfaction, but Chen Zheng said with a blank expression:
"Commander Teng is planning to go out for a winter outing?"

Teng Qilong didn't seem to understand the irony in Chen Zheng's words, and said slowly:

"It's a long journey of six or seven hundred miles, and we need to prepare more for the wind, meals and camping in the open."

Chen Zheng was too lazy to talk nonsense with this perverted second-generation ancestor, so he immediately got on his horse and waved his hand:

"go!"

No more gossip, the two parties set off.

Filed out from the east gate, Chen Zheng led his men to take the lead, and galloped on the snow-covered avenue, heading towards Liangshan County.

And behind him, Teng Qilong led a group of followers, and followed behind unhurriedly.

Not long after, on the vast snowfield, Teng Qilong and others were left far behind, almost invisible.

Chai Tiefeng, Chang Qing and others glanced back, and then said loudly to Chen Zheng in front:
"My lord, why don't we slow down and wait for them?"

Chen Zheng didn't want to pay attention to it, but after seeing the pleading expressions of the four subordinates, he still raised his hands and pulled the rope, slowing down the speed.

He is naturally not afraid of Teng Qilong, but the four subordinates are obviously very scrupulous about him, for fear of offending him.

After all, with Teng Qilong's family background and the means to deal with Yingzong, how could Chai Tiefeng not be afraid of these petty officials?
However, it was very easy to get lost in the heavy snow, and the speed could not be increased. With Chen Zheng's approval, their team also slowed down.

Then, as the snow fell harder and harder, there was a vast expanse of whiteness everywhere, and the world was not distinguished from the four fields, and it became more and more difficult to travel.

Fortunately, Chang Qing has been to Liangshan County several times, so he knows the way, stopping and walking along the way to find out the direction.

It wasn't until the evening that the crowd had traveled less than half of the way.

However, with Chang Qing's guidance, they found an abandoned inn before dark, avoiding the trouble of sleeping in the open on snowy nights.

It's just that when they arrived at this abandoned inn when the sky was dark and night was approaching, someone inside had already stepped in first.

Teng Qilong's cavalry was still a mile or two behind. When Chen Zheng came outside the wall of the post station, he saw the faint light of fire coming from the broken doors and windows inside.

Now he is not what he used to be, naturally he is fearless, immediately got off his horse and led people into the courtyard.

Then at a glance, I saw two unkempt and ragged figures looking around in fear through the broken doors and windows of the inn.

Chai Tiefeng glanced at him: "My lord, I seem to be a refugee."

Chen Zheng stepped into the dilapidated inn, and then saw a small pile of near-extinguished fires, surrounded by a dozen ragged, skinny refugees, huddled together for warmth, and there were even three or three belts. with children.

There were a few others lying stiffly on the other side, motionless, as if they had lost their breath.

Seeing Chen Zheng and his group of people in fresh clothes and angry horses come in, the dozen or so refugees who were warming up were terrified and shrank to the corner of the wall.

One of the leaders, a middle-aged man, dressed in coarse cloth and skinny, asked tremblingly:
"Who, how many masters, who are you?"

"The official of the government office is on a business trip!"

Chang Qing took a step forward, examined and asked:
"Who are you?"

Upon hearing the official dispatch, a kind of refugee became even more fearful, and the leading man trembled and said:
"Return, Master, we were originally tenants in the nearby Lianshan Township. A few days ago, the horse bandits robbed the villages and towns. From the landlords to the farmers like us, most of the homes were looted.

Our grass-roots families had no food left. We were looted and lost our way of life. Two or three hundred of us starved to death and froze to death in a few days. Our family really had no choice but to go to Liangshan County or other counties. To beg for a living.

However, it suddenly snowed heavily today, and several of our family members froze to death on the way. We couldn’t make it, so we took shelter from the wind and snow at this inn for a night, and left early tomorrow morning, and please agree with the masters.”

Frozen to death and starved to death 300 people
The appearance of these people is obviously not fake, so many panicked and pleading eyes came, Chen Zheng sighed in his heart:
"It's okay, you just stay here."

As he spoke, he glanced at the fire that was about to be extinguished, and turned his eyes to Chang Qing: "You said you brought some charcoal?"

It was cold and snowy all the way, although the martial arts practitioners were strong and didn't need much, Chang Qing carefully prepared some charcoal before departure.

He immediately understood what Chen Zheng meant:
"Adults plan to give them some?"

In the icy and snowy world, there is not much to make firewood in this abandoned station, Chen Zheng nodded:

"Since we have met them, let's give them some. We should be able to arrive before dark tomorrow. It doesn't matter if we use less. There is also the dry food we brought with us. Give them some extra, so that they can last longer time."

Knowing Chen Zheng's style for a long time, Chang Qing didn't say much, and went out to take a leather bag from the horse's back after saying yes, and poured a pile of charcoal next to the fire that the refugees kept warm.

The other three didn't say anything else, they took out the dry food they carried with them one after another, divided some of them into a bag, and handed them to them.

It seemed that they had never expected that there was such a good official post. A kind of refugee whose face was blue with cold and hungry, all froze, and then knelt down on the ground in ecstasy, weeping with gratitude:

"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir!"

"Savior of the world, bless you, you are great people, you will live a long life, and your children and grandchildren will be full!"

"Everyone is so kind and virtuous, Xiaomin kowtows to you!"

Bang bang bang kowtow sounded endlessly, Chen Zheng waved his hand:

"Okay, get up, don't kneel. Otherwise, I'll take all these things back!"

As soon as these words came out, all the refugees were shocked, and they immediately got up and stopped kowtowing.

In such a world, there is only so much that can be done. Chen Zheng ignored these people and waved them to another corner to settle down.

As for those refugees, they didn't bother to thank them any more, and the leader immediately began to distribute the dry food, and brought back handfuls of snow from outside, and started to gobble up the dry food with snow water.

Chen Zheng and the others brought fine dry food, and most of them were dried meat. These refugees seemed to have never eaten such good food in their life, and they even cried out of joy while eating.

Chen Zheng took a look and then looked away, involuntarily thinking of Ge Tiandao.

The Guangwu Celestial Dynasty lasted for 800 years, and now it is decayed and turbulent.

Although there are evils and evils in this world that kill people, there are corrupt officials, powerful landlords, horse bandits and thieves, and none of them are less harmful.

Just like the villages and towns where this group of refugees lived, a horse bandit looting can cause hundreds of people to freeze and starve to death, which is even more harmful to evil spirits.

If the original Ge Tiandao and Taoist Lu Weixian could succeed, I don't know if the world will be different now.

Just in the midst of flying thoughts.

There was a sound of horseshoes and neighing, apparently Teng Qilong from behind finally arrived at this foothold with a group of followers.

The refugees who were devouring food were stunned for a moment, and after a burst of noise, a gust of snow came from outside the door, and they saw Teng Qilong wearing a big cloak, walking in with his maids and entourage.

However, as soon as he entered, he saw the circle of refugees surrounded by the wall, and he was stunned for a moment.

Then, with extreme disgust in his eyes, he ordered coldly behind him:

"Where are there so many mud-legged pariahs here? Wu Da, Wu Er, throw them all out!"
