From a beggar on South Street to the supreme devil

Chapter 157 Head falls to the ground
"Squeak—"

The heavy iron door slowly opened, revealing the spacious Cao Gang warehouse inside.

There are long cabinets lined up on both sides, with boxes placed on them.

Jiang Chen stepped in, crushed an iron lock, and opened an iron box.

Inside were three rows of smelted hematite blocks.

This is the material for refining precious weapons, and its price has exceeded that of gold.

He opened several other boxes in the warehouse one after another, which were filled with gold, silver, jade and jewelry.

Although for warriors at the level of forging organs and refining organs,

Gold and silver are no longer important, but food, clothing, housing, transportation, the operation of the Cao Gang, and the rewards and punishments of the lower-level disciples also require gold and silver.

The last few boxes contained some rare treasures, but they were of low quality and were of little use to Jiang Chen.

These should all be used to maintain the operation of the Cao Gang. The real good things should have been handed over to the noble families...

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen felt quite regretful.

He looked down at the three jade bottles in his hands.

This is what I just got from Lu He, Jin De, and Lin Dongcheng.

Being able to withstand one's own strength without being damaged must be some good things.

"grown ups."

Yu Hui stood in front of the warehouse door, waiting respectfully for Jiang Chen to come out.

Jiang Chen walked out of the warehouse.

"what happened?"

"Some brothers have found the residences of Jin De, the leader of the Cao Gang, and the other two deputy leaders..."

Jiang Chen glanced at Yu Hui calmly.

He naturally understood why Yu Hui was so diligent and enthusiastic.

However, if Yu Hui was willing to work for him sincerely, he would not care about the twists and turns in this person's mind.
"Take someone in to search it."

Yu Hui was delighted when he heard this.

Lord Jiang has already established initial trust in me.

That's a good start!
He quickly said, "Yes."

Then he hurriedly took his people away.

……

More than twenty captains and sergeants, while dealing with the elite disciples of the Cao Gang who surrendered, sent another group of people to turn the entire Cao Gang mansion upside down.

About half an hour later.

"Sir, we searched all the places where the high-ranking members of the Cao Gang lived and found thirty-two taels of demonic stones. We also found this in Jin De's house."

Yuhui handed over a heavy purse and a yellow cover book.

Jiang Chen took the purse and then glanced at the yellow book.

It was about a finger wide, the paper was slightly yellowed, but very tough, and curled at the corners, as if it had been turned over many times.

On the cover of the book, there were written in large, vigorous and powerful characters: "Blood Evil Spell Volume One".

Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows slightly.

Is this the Zhu family's secret method?
Not all methods are suitable to be recorded in the jade slips of inheritance, or it is very difficult to record them, so some methods are also recorded on paper.

This method seems to be the secret method bestowed upon Jin De by the Zhu family.

Let’s go back and check again…

Jiang Chen put away the book and said calmly, "Have you dealt with everything?"

Yu Hui nodded: "It's taken care of."

"Then go back."

……

The gate of Caobang Mansion.

There was a bleak scene inside and outside the tall vermilion gate of the mansion.

The core disciples of the Cao Gang were tied up with special steel ropes, sent out of the mansion, and escorted to the dungeon of the City Guard under the escort of the captain of the City Guard.

The leader was tall and slender, wearing a city lieutenant's black uniform that was new and appropriate, and he looked very heroic.

On the road, vendors setting up stalls, passers-by, and refugees huddled on street corners all cast their eyes over here.

"What happened? These...are all disciples of the Cao Gang, right? Why were they arrested by the City Guards?"

"Well, these beasts are always so tyrannical, and now they finally get their comeuppance!"

"Is the leader the new city lieutenant? He looks so young!"

"I guess so. I just saw them break into the Cao Gang's base. There was a bloody fight! This new city lieutenant is a ruthless man..."

"Hey, no matter who he is, as long as he destroys the Cao Gang, he will be the benefactor of our Yunjiangfang!"

……

Jiang Chen walked forward calmly, and heard whispers like mosquitoes in his ears. After his martial arts will was improved, he could hear whispers of this level very clearly with his five senses.

He didn't really care about other people's opinions, but it was a good thing to gain a good reputation as a newcomer.

All the way back to the City Guard Department.

Yu Hui sent all the elite disciples of the Cao Gang to the dungeon for interrogation.

Qi Zhao, who had returned earlier, had already brought people to pry the things out of Lin Dongcheng's mouth.

……

City Guards dungeon.

The dungeon was dark.

stomping on...

Jiang Chen stepped into the damp dungeon with his black boots and came to the outside of a cell.

At this time, Lin Dongcheng was tied up in the cell, with almost no good meat on his body.

Two warriors from the army stood aside.

"grown ups."

Qi Zhao sat at a table outside the cell, writing down what Lin Dongcheng had handed over.

Seeing Jiang Chen coming, he quickly stood up and gave the only seat to Jiang Chen.

"I've asked the questions, and they're all recorded here."

Jiang Chen nodded slightly, picked up a few pages of paper on the table, and scanned them from top to bottom.

What was recorded on it were nothing more than some evil deeds committed by the Cao Gang in Yunjiangfang, such as bullying men and women.

This was the evidence of the Cao Gang's crimes. With the evidence, it would be natural for him to lead his men to destroy the Cao Gang.

As for whether I got the evidence first, or destroyed the Cao Gang first and then got the evidence...

I've already destroyed it, so of course I have the final say.

……

Jiang Chen's eyes swept over Lin Dongcheng's confession and suddenly stopped.

"During this period, the noble family sent them to transport a batch of smuggled goods outside the city. After the task was completed, they were given three bottles of White Jade Lotus Heart Liquid..."

"smuggling……"

Jiang Chen pondered for a moment.

"Did you find out what was smuggled?"

Qi Zhao shook his head: "No, they just sent the ships, and they don't know what the cargo is."

Jiang Chen nodded thoughtfully.

It seems that the three jade bottles in his arms should be the rewards given to them by the Zhu family...

"Okay, make a copy of this message and give it to Commander Zhuo."

"Yes." Qi Zhao clasped his fists and bowed.

Jiang Chen stood up and prepared to leave the dungeon.

At this time, Qi Zhao glanced at Lin Dongcheng in the dungeon and said, "Sir, how do we deal with the deputy leader of the Cao Gang?"

Jiang Chen walked towards the dungeon door without stopping, and his calm voice slowly echoed in the dungeon.

"Kill him."

In the cell, Lin Dongcheng, with a confused look on his face, raised his head in horror and looked at Jiang Chen's departing back in horror.

"Master Jiang! Don't kill me!"

"I am still valuable. I can help you report the noble families! I can also be a death warrior and help you kill people! Spare my life, spare my life..."

Lin Dongcheng's tears and snot were mixed together, and his miserable cry for mercy echoed throughout the dungeon, making the other Cao Gang disciples in the nearby cells turn pale.

However, Jiang Chen's back remained motionless as he calmly walked out of the dungeon.

There was dead silence in the dungeon.

Lin Dongcheng stared at Jiang Chen's back, the fear in his eyes gradually transformed into a deep and intense resentment.

He opened his mouth and screamed: "Jiang Chen! Even if I go to hell, I will never let you go..."

He hasn't finished speaking yet.

A big hand had already grabbed his neck like a duck, and pressed his head to the ground.

Qi Zhao raised the long knife in his left hand, and a ferocious smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "Then you should go to hell first!"

"puff!"

The long knife falls!

Lin Dongcheng's head fell to the ground and rolled twice.

There was still a trace of despair and fear on the blood-stained face.
