I have an endless army of warriors, rampaging across the heavens.

Chapter 27 Tracking
The day.

Gui Yunsu, the master of the Five Pile Hall, promised Peng Dingqiu, the master of Menglou Hall: "I will definitely mobilize my disciples to keep a close eye on the actions of the Green Bamboo Gang."

after that.

That night.

Wu Hong and his disciples all came to advise their master: "The Green Bamboo Gang is unscrupulous and has a knack for implicating innocent people. Please, Master, consider the safety of the martial arts school's disciples and apprentices, and do not provoke them!"

Gui Yunsu, with his old-fashioned air, straightened his face and said sternly, "With me here at the Five Pillars Hall, who dares to act recklessly?"

Wu Hong smiled wryly: "My good master! You don't know this, but Meng Lou thought the same thing back then. As a result, the Qingzhu Gang couldn't get in, so they ambushed and assassinated those guests on their way home."

He asked his master, "If the Green Bamboo Gang were to deal with the Five Gangs in the same way, even if you were invincible, you would still be overwhelmed. What would you do then?"

Gui Yunsu's expression froze.

If that were the case, no matter how capable he was, he simply couldn't handle it.

but--

"The Green Bamboo Gang won't last long. Do they still have the energy to deal with my Five Gangs again?"

Gui Yunsu hesitated.

Wu Hong had a long conversation with Zhao Wu, and now his thoughts were clear: "Master, don't misunderstand! Even if the Green Bamboo Gang can't last long, do you think a few months is enough for the Green Bamboo Gang to bring down the five gangs?"

A disciple nearby added, "The Green Bamboo Gang took only a few days to bring down the Five Blessings Hall and only half a month to bring down the Menglou."

The other disciples also chimed in, offering their own advice and persuading their master.

Gui Yunsu exclaimed upon hearing this: "Outrageous! This is utterly unscrupulous!"

He got angry once, then angry again, and then angry a third time.

Ultimately, the air condenses.

No matter how strong he was, he was completely helpless against the unruly and shameless fighting style of the Green Bamboo Gang.

Gui Yunsu laughed: "Are these Green Bamboo Gang people really beyond cure?"

correct!

Not really!

……

Zuo Jing, having nothing better to do, suddenly discovered that his assassins had a rather impressive skill—

"Death warriors have no family."

"Born without any weaknesses."

Regardless of past or present lives, a person's greatest weakness and vulnerability is undoubtedly their family.

parents.

wife.

child.

Brothers and sisters.

How many people have endured so much humiliation because they were threatened with their family members?

But assassins wouldn't.

Therefore, one should take life and death lightly and fight if one is dissatisfied.

Also.

The reason why his assassins could consistently make the Green Bamboo Gang take the blame was largely due to 'possession'.

"I can transmit information by possessing someone."

There was absolutely no correspondence.

"There is never a need for messengers to deliver orders."

"I've eliminated all those processes that originally required strong interaction and were prone to revealing flaws, such as task handover and collaborative work, thanks to my 'possession' ability."

"There is absolutely no flaw in it."

Therefore, it is flawless.

"What can these forces in Shangyang City, regardless of size, do to fight me?"

……

Shangyang City underwent a complete upheaval.

Meng Lou reported that the Green Bamboo Gang was using "extraordinary people" in violation of regulations.

The government launched an investigation.

at the same time.

Enraged, the Lei family launched a city-wide manhunt, mobilizing all available resources, including their guards and even local militia from Lei Family Fortress outside the city, to search for every clue throughout Shangyang Prefecture.

When there are too many people, chaos is inevitable.

Shangyang City was already in chaos.

Who would be happy if the Lei family suddenly intervened and launched an investigation into gangs like the Green Bamboo Gang and even major forces in Shangyang City?
Zuo Jing reacted the fastest.

Through his henchmen in various gangs, he deliberately creates friction and conflict with the guards and local militia who are investigating the Lei family.

Then.

Fight hard.

They'd fight to the death. The Lei family wanted to focus solely on investigating the whereabouts of the stolen gold and silver, but they needed Zuo Jing's permission first!

Sakyo disagrees.

Then you have to go into the water.

In an instant, the water in Shangyang City became even muddier.

But the Lei family's investigation was not without results—

……

At the snap of your fingers.

It's already May.

There are a total of four constables in Shangyang County.

Wang Hongfei has passed away, but there are still three others.

One of them, named Liu Zizhuang, was reporting to Lei Yuanwen of the Lei family: "Third Master, please look, someone discovered that this place suddenly collapsed. My subordinates used an oxcart to haul stones to weigh it down, and then discovered several more sections collapsed. After having several pits dug, we found that this was a tunnel leading from outside the city to inside the city, and the tunnel was filled with footsteps."

Lei Yuanwen frowned: "How many people and how much earth would it take to dig such a long tunnel? How would you transport all that soil away?"

He looked at Liu Zizhuang, his dissatisfaction directed at the entire government: "A project of this scale must have caused quite a stir. Why didn't the prefectural and county governments discover it beforehand?"

Liu Zizhuang was trembling with fear: "This direction is far from the city gate, and few people usually come here. In addition, the brothers in the yamen have been busy with the fighting between the Green Bamboo Gang, the Flying Tiger Gang and Meng Lou recently, and their energy is limited, so they have not discovered any movement here."

He's strange too!

Who would dare to dig such a long tunnel right under the nose of Shangyang City?

How did you do it?
Let's leave that aside for now.

Lei Yuanwen then asked, "Any other discoveries?"

Liu Zizhuang awkwardly touched his nose, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

Obviously, no further discoveries were made.

Lei Yuanwen grew increasingly displeased: "We haven't been able to find out which direction these people ran off in?"

Liu Zizhuang shook his head: "We did investigate, but this place is too remote, overgrown with weeds, and there have been several heavy rainstorms in the past two days, which have washed away the traces, making it difficult to find."

Check it out!
Find, find, find!
All you do is rush me!

Liu Zizhuang was utterly speechless.

Everyone knows that there are many mountains and rivers outside Shangyang City. Whether you go deep into the mountains or find a small river and take a small boat downstream, you can enjoy the scenery.

How do I find it?

There's nothing I can do!

Lei Yuanwen gradually found the situation troublesome as well.

It cannot be found within the city.

It cannot be found outside the city.

We finally found a clue, but then it all went cold.

Privately, they captured many people from various gangs and powerful forces, interrogated them one by one, and tortured them severely, but they still couldn't get any information about gold and silver out of them.

Weird.

So much gold and silver, even if it could be transported out through this tunnel, even if the gold and silver can't be found, how come we can't find even the slightest clue?

So many people were involved?

One pass to ten.

From ten to one hundred.

Is it really possible for everyone to keep quiet about stealing gold and silver?

No one would secretly hide a box or two of gold or silver. Even if they only stole a silver ingot or two, as long as they spent it, they would leave traces, and the Lei family could follow the clues and find a breakthrough.

but.

No!

Those people seemed to vanish into thin air, just like the gold and silver.

It's tricky.

Lei Yuanwen realized that the gold and silver had likely already been secretly smuggled out.

If it's still in the city, then it's the easiest to find.

If we were still in Shangyang Prefecture, that would be easy.

The real fear is that it might be transported out of Shangyang Prefecture, or even out of Jiujiang Province.

At that time.

The sky is big and the earth is big.

After that group of people just found a place to smelt the metal, changed its appearance, and distributed it to others, where would the Lei family find such a thing?

"The only option now is to wait."

"Wait for the other party to make a mistake."

"Wait until they show a weakness."

Lei Yuanwen's face darkened; for the first time, he felt an unprecedented sense of passivity!
