Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 169: Meixiang Garden, the famous actor Lou Yuesheng

Wei Chuyi's intelligence network was forcibly disbanded by Chu Danqing.

He did value intelligence channels, but he was not so unscrupulous as to let a group of children risk their lives to help him obtain intelligence.

Chu Danqing actually understood that if he were a little more ruthless, he might live a better life, but he knew what he should and should not do.

Then, he took advantage of these few days to properly arrange some living arrangements for this group of former intelligence network personnel.

This group of people relied on Wei Chuyi's salary, and their living standards have improved a lot. Now that the salary has suddenly been cut off, there will inevitably be a gap.

Chu Danqing took advantage of his power and abused it for personal gain.

However, he only built a rough framework and guided Wei Chuyi, and left the rest to them to do on their own.

Sooner or later he will have to leave this trial world, and Wei Chuyi will have to walk the future path on his own.

It is impossible for Chu Danqing to arrange everything properly.

Furthermore, Wei Chuyi has strong abilities in learning, understanding, and practice. Chu Danqing has given him the platform. If he can't handle it himself, Chu Danqing has no way to help him.

He's willing to lend a hand, but that doesn't mean he'll be a babysitter.

As for signing an alliance with Wei Chuyi? Forget about that.

He signed the contract with Xiong Zhigang not only because he was impressed by his talent, but also because the trial world where Xiong Zhigang was located was relatively special and could produce strategic resources.

You can't invest casually, you have to investigate first.

Is this trial world used for assessment? That only means it's difficult, not full of potential.

The simplest point is that the character attribute panels in this trial world are quite standard, unlike the previous trial world where characters have special abilities at first glance.

Then Chu Danqing stopped caring about it because the three days were up.

Chu Danqing took Dabao and the beast-faced warrior to the city gate to pick people up.

Ma Yunfeng, the famous prime minister of Dashuo, returned to his hometown to visit his relatives today.

Not only did he come, but Jia Simu and others also came to pick people up.

Ma Yunfeng is the prime minister after all, so how can the grand ceremony of returning home be small?

"Long time no see, Mr. Chu." Ma Yunfeng got off the carriage and greeted Chu Danqing as soon as he opened his mouth.

He really didn't know Chu Danqing, but he had already informed him when Chen Jiunan sent him a message.

It was normal for Ma Yunfeng to notice the difference between Dabao and the beast-faced warrior given their obvious appearance.

Chu Danqing nodded slightly in response, looking like an old acquaintance.

Jia Simu's heart sank. Chu Danqing's status was higher than he had imagined.

With this scene, everything Chu Danqing said before was confirmed, and the false became true.

It’s not that Ma Yunfeng is a good guy, but there is profit in this.

The simplest thing is to divert the firepower to Chu Danqing.

Everyone benefits, but everyone also needs to pay a price, so it can be considered a common development.

"Old Master, we have already arranged a welcoming banquet for you at the Meixiang Opera House. Please be sure to come and enjoy the feast."

"Lou Yuesheng heard that the old man was coming, so he specially showed off his best skills." Jia Simu hurried over with a flattering look on his face.

He had already found out that the famous prime minister Ma Yunfeng did not like gold, silver, and jewelry, nor did he like beautiful women and delicious food.

I love drama as my life.

It is better to let him listen to a good play than to give him anything else.

Since Jia Simiao needed help from others, he naturally had to follow Ma Yunfeng's preferences.

Ma Yunfeng looked like a kind old man, stroking his long beard and said, "Governor Jia, since you are so thoughtful, then let's go to Meixiang Garden."

"I have heard of Lou Yuesheng's martial artist for a long time, and now it's a good opportunity to see him in person."

A look of joy appeared on Jia Simu's face, and he personally drove the car for Ma Yunfeng in front.

Seeing this, Chu Danqing naturally followed.

He promised Chen Jiunan that he would ensure Ma Yunfeng's safety.

He glanced at the crowd but didn't see any danger.

The personnel arrived at Meixiang Theater smoothly. The people inside had already been cleared out. Today, the theater was reserved by Jia Simu.

Everyone took their seats, and then the show began.

Everyone looked happy.

But most of the time, Ma Yunfeng was communicating with Chu Danqing, and Jia Simu was unable to get a word in.

He didn't have any resentment, but he was worried that Ma Yunfeng would make things difficult for him.

This kind of indifference is normal. What is his status? What is the other person's status?

But as the play was going on, I realized something was wrong.

"Governor Jia, I remember that in this episode, it should be Lou Yuesheng's turn, why was he replaced by a martial artist?" Ma Yunfeng said with a frown while looking at the play on the stage.

When Jia Simiao heard this, he took a closer look and found that it was true.

He wasn't in the mood to watch the show, and most of his attention wasn't on it.

Ma Yunfeng came here just for Lou Yuesheng, but in the end he didn't get a role when it came time to act, so the fate of the role would fall on Jia Simu.

"Please wait a moment, old man. I'll go backstage and ask." After saying this, Jia Simu hurried over to check.

When I went there to ask, I found out that Lou Yuesheng had disappeared early this morning.

The troupe had no choice but to replace Lou Yuesheng with another person.

This made Jia Simiao very angry, but he was also worried in his heart.

Lou Yuesheng had no reason to leave without permission.

I have given him enough money and even his treatment is better than before.

Actors were originally of the lowest class, no matter how glorious they were, they were no more than this. How could they dare to offend a governor like me?

After a series of inquiries without any results, Jia Simu had no choice but to go back and report.

"Since he's gone, let it go." Ma Yunfeng didn't care. He liked watching plays and listening to music, but he wouldn't get angry over such a small matter.

However, Jia Simu, who was standing by, felt the pressure suddenly increase.

Not long after, when the song ended and the curtain was slowly drawn, a heavy object fell from the top of the stage.

It landed on the ground with a thud, startling many people.

It was a large sack with dark red dried blood stains, and it made a loud noise when it fell to the ground.

And because it hit the ground, it caused secondary damage, and a lot of blood seeped out again.

This scene made Jia Simiao's face look very ugly.

He had already guessed where the missing Lou Yuesheng had gone.

Chu Danqing and Ma Yunfeng's expressions remained unchanged.

Jia Simiao apologized and immediately arranged for someone to investigate.

After opening the sack, it was indeed Lou Yuesheng, but the whole body was in a terrible state.

I don’t know whether he was tortured during his lifetime or humiliated after his death.

Everyone present knew without hesitation that this was aimed at Jia Simu, in order to ruin his good fortune.

Chu Danqing asked the spear-wielding soldiers to go and check it out, and they came back soon.

"He was an experienced hand. He cut her throat first and then stabbed her heart. She died without any resistance or sound."

"The current state of death was caused by dismemberment later." The spear-wielding soldier briefly summarized his conclusion.

"In my opinion, this is not directed at Governor Jia, but clearly at me." Ma Yunfeng said coldly: "Governor Jia, you are not strict in your rule."

"There are such vicious criminals in Linyuan City." Ma Yunfeng's tone was full of disappointment, and he stood up and was about to leave.

Chu Danqing was confused. He couldn't quite understand who was behind this.

In his opinion, the first suspect should undoubtedly be the Zhaoming Society.

After all, Zhaoming will profit the most, so naturally it is also the most suspicious.

Chu Danqing followed and was about to get on the chariot when Ma Yunfeng invited him, "Master Chu, my carriage is much more comfortable than your bumpy chariot."

"Why not join me?"

Obviously, he had something to say to Chu Danqing.

Chu Danqing did not refuse and got on the carriage directly.

"Something happened." After coming up, Ma Yunfeng whispered, "Lou Yuesheng is a hidden pawn of the Zhaoming Society. I had an appointment with him to meet in today's scene."

"Then use him as a breakthrough point to intervene in the case of Bai Xiaohe and Yang Wenju."

These three simple sentences made Chu Danqing a little shocked. This was indeed unexpected.

"So it was Jia Simu who directed and acted in it himself?" Since the Zhaoming Society was ruled out, it must be Jia Simu.

The other party noticed Lou Yuesheng's situation in advance and took the initiative to eliminate the hidden danger, and also gave Ma Yunfeng a warning.

However, Ma Yunfeng shook his head: "It doesn't seem like it, so I want you to help me find out why Lou Yuesheng died."

"I suspect there's something wrong here."

"I will focus on cleaning up Linyuan City from now on. I can't spare time, so I have to trouble you."

As soon as he finished speaking, the side quest was refreshed.

[Side Quest: Find out the truth about Lou Yuesheng's death within three days]

[Trial Difficulty: A-Level (Heroic)]

[Trial Reward: Paradise Points x 10000, Attribute Points +4]

[Trial Failed: Paradise Points -20000, Random Attribute -1]

Chu Danqing accepted it without hesitation, then asked, "Is it so urgent?"

"It's urgent." Ma Yunfeng said directly: "When you rescued Chen Jiunan earlier, thirty armored guards died."

"This is not a small amount. The Queen Mother heard about this and ordered the commander Qi Qianshan to wipe out the rebels on the pretext of something."

"You and I both know exactly what the actual situation is."

"According to my estimation, Qi Qianshan will arrive at Linyuan City with his men in five days at most."

"I need to take control of the situation within five days so that I can be confident enough to fight Qi Qianshan." Ma Yunfeng understood that this was unavoidable.

The difficulties of the previous A-level branch are gradually beginning to take effect.

In other words, only if he completes this side quest within three days, he may be able to solve the problems left over from the previous side quest.

This means that Lou Yuesheng’s death is probably not that simple.

"Okay, I'll try my best." Chu Danqing could only agree, after all, he had accepted the task.

As for how to investigate, Chu Danqing had no idea for the time being, so he needed an advantage.

"I want real power, and I'll get it for you within three days." Chu Danqing said bluntly.

Otherwise, if he really relies on himself to investigate the case, what can he find out?

Ma Yunfeng glanced at Chu Danqing meaningfully and said, "I can't give it to you until tomorrow at the earliest. Not today. I still need to make some arrangements."

He had only been in Linyuan City for one day, so even if he was going fast, it wouldn't be this fast.

"Okay, but you have to use your title of Ma Xiang today." Chu Danqing continued.

"No problem, feel free to use it." Ma Yunfeng agreed very readily.
