From a beggar on South Street to the supreme devil

Chapter 154: Entering the Cao Gang

Yunjiangfang, City Guard Department.

After hearing Jiang Chen's words, a dozen captains from the city guard looked at each other, suddenly at a loss.

Gao Ming has been in charge of the City Guard for so many years, and the captains who did not obey his orders had long been squeezed out by various means, or even killed in secret.

Naturally, these people have long been in cahoots with him.

Most of the resources obtained went into his own stomach.

Now we want them to spit it out again, how is that possible?!
Jiang Chen naturally saw through their thoughts.

Yunjiangfang is so big, and Zhuo Jin only assigned Qi Zhao and five other people to himself, which is naturally not enough.

He needed to keep these former captains of the city guards firmly under his control.

Jiang Chen smiled and said, "Things are different now. Commander Zhuo has learned about the chaos in Yunjiangfang, so he specially sent me here to govern."

"If you can't tell the truth, you will have no choice but to go to jail and be investigated. I'm sure you, the lieutenants, should understand the specific consequences."

"Don't even think about escaping. Jinpengwei City is so small, and your family and friends are all here. You can't escape."

"But as long as you follow me to surround the Cao Gang and draw a clear line between you and them, I will forgive you for what happened."

"You guys, make your choice."

……

After Jiang Chen finished speaking, the captains of the city guards present fell silent.

In fact, they had no choice.

Once, the Weicheng family set their sights on Yunjiangfang and asked them to collect money, so they had to collect the money.

Now that Jiang Chen has arrived and killed Gao Ming, he wants them to surrender, so they must surrender. They also have no choice.

In the eyes of the Acropolis's high-ranking forces, these ordinary captains are nothing more than ants, and it doesn't matter which side they stand on.

Finally, the captain in front gritted his teeth, knelt on one knee, and said with a bow, "I am Yu Hui, your subordinate, and I greet Lord City Captain."

With one person taking the lead, the others finally made up their minds and knelt on one knee and bowed in submission.

Jiang Chen nodded and looked at Yu Hui in the front: "Your name is Yu Hui, right? From today on, you will be in charge of these people."

Yu Hui was slightly stunned, then he cupped his hands and said, “Yes, thank you, sir.”

A sense of joy rose in his heart.

Before, he was just a invisible person among these captains, but now he has become their leader, which is considered half a "deputy city captain"!

But the next moment, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Can this Lord Jiang who is acting so recklessly really last long...

Jiang Chen ignored his thoughts and said:
"First, clean up the body on the ground, and then give me the files of the Cao Gang."

"During this period, no one is allowed to leave the City Guard Department."

"Yes." Yu Hui quickly collected his thoughts and bowed.

After saying that, Jiang Chen turned around and entered the inner hall, sitting directly on the first seat.

Yu Hui quickly retrieved the Cao Gang's files and handed them to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen went through it carefully and was basically sure that there was no problem.

He stood up and said, "Qi Zhao, Yu Hui, the two of you lead the team and follow me to the Cao Gang."

Yu Hui felt a little worried.

I really want to go...

He hesitated for a moment: "Ahem, sir, do you want to find out more about their strength?"

"We can't give them time to react, otherwise it will be too late."

Jiang Chen's calm voice left no room for doubt, and he was the first to walk out of the main entrance of the hall.

Since Jiang Chen said so, Yu Hui could only do as he said.

Qi Zhao and several warriors in the army have also cleared up their grudges.

When Zhuo Jin asked them to come over before, they thought they were here to be babysitters.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Chen could kill this Gao Ming so easily. His strength has far exceeded his current realm.

It seems that Commander Zhuo was right in asking me to follow this adult.

He is so young but already has such strength. As long as he survives, he will definitely have a bright future!
And if these followers of theirs establish a good relationship with Jiang Chen, they will naturally be able to "rise to prosper" in the future.

……

About twenty people were divided into two teams, one led by Qi Zhao and the other led by Jiang Chen himself, and they dispersed and moved quickly towards the Cao Gang’s base.

The Cao Gang’s headquarters is located next to the dock on the bank of Yunjiang River. Tall and spacious houses and courtyards are scattered around in an orderly manner. The gate in the middle is engraved with the vigorous and powerful characters "Yunjiang Gang".

There were a large number of ships docked at the pier, and the Cao Gang disciples coming and going were all dressed in green, tall in stature, and seemed to have some experience in martial arts.

Jiang Chen glanced at the scene in front of him with an indifferent expression.

The main source of livelihood for the people of Yunjiangfang is the fishery in Yunjiang.

After the Cao Gang was established, they forcibly opened up dock trade, forced purchases and sales, occupied fields and ships, and caused a large number of people living along the river to lose their livelihoods and become homeless.

The ecology of the entire Yunjiangfang was destroyed, and it became like the South Street in Yanyang City, full of refugees and beggars.

The Cao Gang collected a large amount of money from the ships' travel, continued to expand, and squeezed the living space of ordinary people in Yunjiangfang.

Jiang Chen wants to control Yunjiangfang, and his first goal is to destroy the Cao Gang first!
Jiang Chen led his men to the gate of the Cao Gang.

The disciple guarding the gate frowned and took two steps forward.

He raised his chin, with a hint of arrogance in his eyes that came from being domineering for a long time. He stood on the steps and looked down at Jiang Chen and others below.

"Who are you..."

"Oh!"

He seemed to be hit by an invisible cannonball, flying backwards and smashing the door behind him.

……

Caobang, three courtyards and inner hall.

A portrait of the founder was hung on the front wall. On the table below, the three red incense sticks in the incense burner had burned out long ago, but no one had lit new ones.

The Yunjiangfang Cao Gang had been established for less than ten years and had a weak foundation, but in order to improve its appearance, they dragged a Cao Gang leader from hundreds of years ago to be the founder.

But obviously, it was just for show. People in the Cao Gang were not very respectful to this ancestor.

Jin De, the leader of the Cao Gang, sat at the dining table in the inner hall with a big horse and a golden sword. He had a rough face, a thick beard, and a naked muscular upper body.

On either side, two slim maids in gauze were hugging him tightly, picking up wine and food with chopsticks and putting them into his mouth.

On both sides of the table sat the two deputy leaders of the Cao Gang, Lu He and Lin Dongcheng, each of them was accompanied by a beauty.

Lu He is a middle-aged man with a fair face and a slightly thin body.

Lin Dongcheng, on the other hand, looked somewhat slick and mercenary, with his goatee combed neatly.

The three of them were drunk and their faces were flushed.

Lin Dongcheng rubbed the breasts of the beauty beside him and smiled at the gang leader Jin De: "Gang leader, did we complete this task well?"

Jin De grinned and said, "Of course there is no problem."

As he spoke, he took out two jade bottles from his arms and placed them on the table.

"The White Jade Lotus Heart Liquid you want."

White Jade Lotus Heart Liquid is a treasure for nourishing the internal organs.

It is taken from the natural treasure White Jade Lotus. It takes a hundred kilograms of White Jade Lotus to extract this bottle of White Jade Lotus Core Liquid.

The two men took the jade bottle, uncorked it and took a look inside.

Lu He's face was filled with ecstasy: "This is the taste! With this thing, I should be able to reach the pinnacle of organ casting soon!"

Jin De grinned and said, "We have done a good job during this period. This is a reward from the higher-ups."

"As long as we do our job well, there will be plenty of resources."

A few days ago, the Zhu family above them asked them to arrange a boat to secretly send a batch of goods out of the city.

As long as the transaction is successful, they will each be given a bottle of White Jade Lotus Heart Liquid.

With such a huge benefit, the goods traded on that ship are most likely some kind of "smuggled goods" strictly prohibited by the Dragon Elephant Sect.

But who cares?
Lin Dongcheng said with a smile: "Next, the dock needs to be expanded, and a few more boats will be built in two days. There are also refugees wandering around in the town, who always want to go to the City Lord's Mansion to cause trouble. They are in the way, so we have to find a way to deal with them..."

Jin De waved his hand indifferently: "Why bother to think of any method? Send people to slaughter them at night. It's a wasteland outside. Just dig a deep pit and bury them."

Lin Dongcheng smiled and said, "What the gang leader said is absolutely right!" The three of them toasted each other and imagined the future.

At this time, Lin Dongcheng suddenly remembered something and said, "Oh, right, last night, there was a message from the city that the Yunjiangfang City Guards were going to have a new city lieutenant, who seemed to be the first in this year's Jinpeng Guards City Fighting Championship."

"The first in the Dou Kui?" Lu He narrowed his eyes, "Is his name Jiang Chen?"

"Hey, Brother Lu, do you know him?" Lin Dongcheng asked curiously.

Lu He sneered and said, "This man was in the Demon Abyss and killed my genius cousin!"

Actually,
Jin De, Lu He and Lin Dongcheng seem to be in a superior-subordinate relationship, but in fact they are the "agents" of several aristocratic families in the Cao Gang.

Jin De was from Zhu family's private army, while Lin Dongcheng was from Lin family's side branch. Lu He was a member of Lu family and Lu Dongsheng's cousin.

The three families jointly arranged personnel and formed the Yunjiangfang Cao Gang to serve the aristocratic families.

Lin Dongcheng was slightly stunned: "There is actually such a thing. So, this person is quite powerful?"

Jin De smiled and said, "He is just a new disciple of the Dragon Elephant Sect. Let Gao Ming deal with him."

"We've spent so much money to raise him, so he should be able to play a role. He shouldn't be unable to deal with a new disciple who just took office, right?"

He just finished speaking.

"boom--"

There was a faint sound coming from the distance.

"Ok?"

The three of them looked at each other.

"Something happened?" Lu He frowned and stood up. "You guys eat first. I'll go take a look."

After that, he got up and walked out.

……

The gate of the Caobang Mansion had been completely blown to pieces, with wood chips flying everywhere.

Several Cao Gang disciples had no time to react at all. Their eyes blurred and they were completely sent flying, falling to the ground with no one knowing whether they were dead or alive.

The Cao Gang disciples nearby who heard the noise rushed over, and in an instant the crowd formed a huge sea.

At this time, Qi Zhao, who was beside Jiang Chen, raised his eyebrows and shouted, "Who dares to stop the City Guard from handling the case?!"

"City Guards? The City Guards are shit! You son of a bitch, you dare to cause trouble in our Cao Gang?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a Cao Gang disciple in front of him started cursing.

Qi Zhao was stunned for a moment, and suddenly he became angry. He subconsciously turned his head and looked at Jiang Chen beside him.

Jiang Chen's eyes were calm, and his voice was calm: "Kill."

Qi Zhao heard this and without thinking any more, he directly ordered the warriors around him: "Kill!"

Then he rushed forward directly.

Like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, he grabbed the Cao Gang disciple who had just shouted, and smashed his head in front of his terrified face.

Several warriors in the army also took action and killed the Cao Gang disciples who dared to stop Jiang Chen from moving forward.

Yuhui in the back looked at the scene in astonishment, his heart suddenly in turmoil.

Then...should I take action?
If I take action this time, I will really offend people.

At this time.

Jiang Chen suddenly turned sideways and looked at him with calm eyes.

Yu Hui suddenly shuddered.

Now it’s not a question of whether you want to do it or not!

It is,
If you dare not take action,

Then the next one to die will be me!

"kill!"

Yu Hui shouted angrily, calling the captain of the city guards behind him, and immediately attacked with all his strength, leading the way to kill the Cao Gang disciples in front.
Qi Zhao on the other side was stunned when he heard the noise.

Why is this guy so excited all of a sudden...

The captains of the city guards are all experts in casting organs.
With the help of Qi Zhao and five other experienced warriors in the army, they quickly defeated the surrounding Cao Gang disciples and made them lose their armor and weapons.

……

"Who dares to cause trouble in my Yunjiang Gang?!"

The loud shout was so clear that it penetrated the nearby shouting and screaming.

Lu He walked out quickly with a spear in his hand, looking sharply at Jiang Chen and others in front of the mansion gate.

He saw the clothes on Jiang Chen and his eyes fixed on him: "City Captain? You are the new City Captain of Yunjiangfang, Jiang Chen?"

Jiang Chen nodded: "It's me."

Lu He looked gloomy: "Where is Gao Ming? You just took office today, why are you here?"

Jiang Chen replied: "He is dead. Before he died, he asked me to destroy your Cao Gang and go down to accompany him."

Lu He was slightly stunned, then reacted.

"Just you?!"

He looked at the Cao Gang disciples who were being slaughtered, and the anger in his eyes almost turned into reality!
"You come to my Cao Gang to kill people for no reason. Even if I kill you right here, no one will dare to say anything!"

Lu He shouted angrily, took a step forward, and rushed towards Jiang Chen with a spear in hand.

Jiang Chen also raised the spear in his hand and pointed it at Lu He in front of him.

The spear is jet black and weighs ten thousand pounds!
When Lu He saw the spear, he was slightly stunned and the anger in his eyes became even stronger.

"This is my Lu family's gun! You killed someone, and you dare to use my Lu family's gun openly?!"

Jiang Chen smiled and said, "Who said I killed someone? I found this in the Demon Abyss."

"Asshole! No need to say more, die!"

Lu He roared, swung the spear in his hand, and it turned into a crescent moon in the air, and slammed down towards Jiang Chen in front of him!

Driven by the huge force, the air twisted, causing the air waves to roll and spread out in all directions.

Dark power technique, Overlord!

Jiang Chen suddenly raised the black gold spear in his hand, and the dragon and tiger killing method spread throughout his body.

The hidden energy was like a dragon, gathering towards the black gold spear in his hand!
"clang--"

A loud bang sounded like the cry of a bluebird, resounding through the sky!

Blood burst out of Lu He's palm, his arm was numb, and the spear in his hand almost flew out!

The enormous force shattered his strength and poured into his body along the spear in his hand.

This forced Lu He to step back repeatedly to relieve the force, and his feet plowed two deep marks on the stone ground beneath his feet.

However, before he could catch his breath, a black light flashed in the air.

Like a sharp arrow, it came straight at his face!

"you!"

Lu He's pupils dilated and he immediately raised his spear, trying to block the shot.

"clang--"

The spear vibrated at a high frequency and flew out of his hand!

Now, there was only empty space in front of Lu He!
next moment.

A young man in black tights flashed in front of him like a ghost.

He twisted his waist and spun around, then delivered a simple straight punch that landed firmly on his chest!

"Oh!"

Lu He arched his back, and a bulge appeared on the clothes at his heart behind him, which then tore apart, while his chest was completely sunken.

The flesh and blood were rotten and moved back three inches. The dormant dragon's energy was flowing through it and it was no longer alive.

Lu He's pupils widened as he stared at Jiang Chen who was so close to him.

It seemed unbelievable that in just a few breaths, he had already been defeated...

Jiang Chen retracted his fist.

After a while, Lu He's body fell to the ground.
