From Martial Arts Dungeon to Master of Martial Arts

Chengbei Medical Clinic.

Zhao Hu, along with Mu Sheng and Chen Baisheng, stopped at the clinic.

There were already three people inside, who had placed the two bodies on stretchers.

Mu Sheng thought to himself, "So this is it."

These constables usually don't concern themselves with matters outside the city, so why are they here today?

Is it because of Mo Xiaodao or Yu Ci?

One of the constables stepped forward and said, "Captain, the female doctor inside died from a flying knife attack, and a man was beheaded, his body separated from his body."

"I already knew about this news this morning," Zhao Hu said, his expression somewhat displeased. "Is there anything I don't know?"

He found out early in the morning; the matter was originally discovered by someone who came to the clinic for treatment, and it had nothing to do with them.

He had no choice but to send people over because someone above had ordered them to investigate.

The constable's face immediately showed worry, but his eyes lit up as he said, "The coroner just examined the body and found that the deceased had wounds all over his body, suggesting that he was seriously injured and on the verge of death. It may be related to the injury he caused to others, and there were not just one, but many perpetrators."

"Then find all those who have grudges against them," Zhao Hu said in a deep voice.

After a moment's thought, Mu Sheng stepped forward and said, "Reporting to the constable, Mo Xiaodao has some grudge against me. He tried to rob me yesterday, but thanks to Senior Sister Miao Yin and her men protecting him, he was seriously injured and forced to flee."

"Hmm!?" Zhao Hu narrowed his eyes and sized up Mu Sheng, asking, "What grudge do you have against him?"

He found out about this a little late. Now that Mu Sheng has already taken up a post, it would be a slap in the face to Zhenyuan Temple to pin all the blame on him.

He could disregard the outer disciples of Zhenyuan Temple, except for a few at the Transformation Realm, but even the people from the City Lord's Mansion wouldn't dare to slap Zhenyuan Temple in the face.

"The Fierce Tiger Gang wanted to make things difficult for this clinic..." Mu Sheng told the whole story without embellishment.

Zhao Hu frowned upon hearing this and looked at the constable, asking, "Who killed those two men?"

The constable recalled for a moment and said, "He died at the hands of a master of martial arts. That beheading move was instantaneous; only a master of martial arts could do that, unless one has superhuman strength."

Mu Sheng breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had just entered the realm of striking power and had not yet fully mastered its strength, his minor success in the Five Beasts Yuan Gong had made his strength comparable to that of a striking power master.

After a moment's thought, Zhao Hu asked Mu Sheng, "How many years have you been a disciple?"

"Reporting back to the constable," Mu Sheng immediately clasped his hands respectfully and said, "less than ten days."

"Less than ten days!?" Zhao Hu glanced at him sideways, gritting his teeth as he said, "That woman Miao Yin really knows how to fool people."

However, Mu Sheng's relationship with him can be cleared.

According to the rules of Zhenyuan Temple, apart from those who spend a lot of money, only outer disciples can advance to Tongjin within a month.

Don't underestimate this speed; it's the speed of a prodigy in any organization.

But even such a young genius wouldn't make the other two martial arts schools lower their standards; it wasn't about his martial arts aptitude, but about money.

He finally asked, "What were you doing before you entered the sect?"

"I've been working as a waiter at an inn outside the north city, and quite a few people have seen me," Mu Sheng hurriedly replied.

"Alright." Zhao Hu nodded. If he were born with superhuman strength, not to mention that the major martial arts sects would fight over him, let alone any naturally strong person would be a waiter.

They pay you based on the quantity of goods if you move them directly.

"Keep finding clues for me!" Zhao Hu said in a deep voice to the constables, "Find all the skilled fighters, those who have grudges against them!"

"Yes!" He hurriedly went inside. The two bodies were only for the coroner's initial examination. To obtain more clues, they needed to move them back.

"You...go with them," Zhao Hu immediately instructed Chen Baisheng.

"Yes." Chen Baisheng did not refute, and quickly followed the constable.

In reality, it was just moving corpses.

"Come with me," Zhao Hu said to Mu Sheng.

The two walked straight into the backyard.

"Tell me everything you know. Who else has a grudge against them?" Zhao Hu's eyes swept across the entire courtyard.

Mu Sheng said, "Reporting to the head constable, these two..."

He revealed his suspicion that these two people had connections behind them, and that the two themselves had no connection whatsoever. After Mo Xiaodao lost to the Fierce Tiger Gang, he came here to hide.

However, if we're talking about grudges...

Aside from him, the most suspicious person is naturally...

"The Fierce Tiger Gang." Zhao Hu's eyes narrowed immediately. He looked at Xiang Musheng and said, "These two do indeed have someone supporting them. In fact, the reason we're investigating this time is because someone pulled some strings."

Mu Sheng clasped his hands in a fist and remained silent.

Zhao Hu looked at him with great interest and asked, "Aren't you curious about who's behind those two?"

"If the constable is willing to talk, I will naturally listen; if he is not willing to talk, there is no point in asking," Mu Sheng said honestly.

"You do have some brains." Zhao Hu nodded in satisfaction, then said with a serious expression, "The people behind them are the Shangguan family."

"They are also one of the three major families in the city. Some time ago, the Li family had some conflict with the Shangguan family. In the end, the Li family won by a small margin. As a result, the Little Knife Gang in the north of the city had no one to help them, so naturally they could not continue to exist."

Therefore, some conflicts at the upper levels directly led to changes in power at the lower levels.

Behind the Fierce Tiger Gang is clearly the Li family, one of the three major families.

After pondering for a while, Mu Sheng asked, "I wonder what your instructions are for informing me of this secret, Chief Constable?"

Zhao Hu said in a deep voice, "You have some brains. You live in the north of the city, so you are obviously more familiar with this place, and you have some contact with the Fierce Tiger Gang. I want you to investigate and find out who did it."

I'm checking myself?

Mu Sheng calmed down, but his face showed difficulty as he said, "Officer, I only have one level of cultivation. I don't have the ability to investigate the Fierce Tiger Gang."

It seems like they value him, but in reality, they're trying to shift the blame.

If we can find out, everything will be fine; if we can't, he might have to take the blame.

After all, he was only on temporary assignment.

But he couldn't just hand himself over.

It's true, we can't find anything.

"Just investigate, I'll tell you to." Zhao Hu's voice suddenly turned cold as he said, "Since you have a brain, make good use of this skin you're wearing. I think you know what to do."

"Yes." Mu Sheng could not refuse now, so he could only clasp his hands in a fist and say.

That's all we can do; we can only take it one step at a time.

"If you can do well, ten taels of silver a month will all be yours," Zhao Hu said.

Mu Sheng's heart sank. This was meant to make him completely offend Chen Baisheng, even though the other party didn't seem to be that powerful.

But he was given all the work that would offend such a person.

"Thank you, Constable," Mu Sheng could only reply in a deep voice.
