Chapter 98: The Dragon of the River, Tian Buyi Luoshui County seat. In the county government office. "How is it?" Cao Bin sat on the armchair. In front of him, a man in a police uniform bowed to him. "Captain Cao, because we just found Xu Yunfeng's bones yesterday." "The coroner at the county government said that it was because they had been dead for too long! Moreover, the bodies had been eaten by wolves and wild beasts. Now only some dry bones and bloodstained clothes were left. It was impossible to find out why Xu Yunfeng and the others died." After hearing this, Cao Bin pondered for a moment. Then he asked, "Where are the bodies of Hong Chengtao and others?" The detective said, "We found it! It's almost the same! They all died at the hands of the same person."

Then he continued, "Captain Cao, according to my investigation, Xu Yunfeng, Hong Chengtao and others followed Jiang Ning out of the city that day, and they did not return after leaving the city." "I actually failed!" Cao Bin immediately lowered his head, frowned, and muttered to himself. During this process, the constable in front of him stopped talking and waited quietly for Cao Bin's reaction. Then, Cao Bin raised his head again: "Where is Jiang Ning? Is there any news about him returning to the city?" The constable shook his head: "I don't know either. The people guarding the city gates are from the City Guards. I can't save face! And they don't recognize Jiang Ning either!" "Forget it!" Hearing this, Cao Bin immediately shook his head: "Even if it's not him, it must be related to him!" Hearing this, the constable took over the conversation. "Captain Cao, do you mean that Xu Yunfeng and Hong Chengtao were both killed by this person named Jiang Ning?" Cao Bin shook his head: "It shouldn't be! Jiang Ning is extremely talented and has only been learning martial arts for a little over a month. Even if he can kill Xu Yunfeng, he can't possibly kill Hong Chengtao!" "Hong Chengtao has reached the minor success level of skin refining, and he has mastered the Iron Sand Palm last month. He has mastered the power. In addition, he has rich experience in fighting. Even I dare not say that I can take him down, let alone kill him!" "Hong Chengtao has been in gangs for so many years, and escaping has always been his specialty." Then Cao Bin thought for a moment, "It seems that after Shen Congyun left, he really took precautions against us! I don't know what he left for Jiang Ning. It's not good to offend him any more now!" Hearing this, the constable immediately breathed a sigh of relief. "Your Excellency is wise! Shen Congyun must have left some tricks behind before he left! It could be some precious hidden weapon, such as the Torrential Pear Blossom Needle, the Shocking Thunder, etc." Cao Bin nodded slightly: "It's possible. It should be this extremely precious personal belongings. Otherwise, Hong Chengtao and Xu Yunfeng would not have died so easily." Then, Cao Bin said, "Send someone to guard the city gate for half a month. If you see Jiang Ning returning to the city, notify me!" "I will bring Xu Yunfeng's mother's head with me to make amends to him and apologize, and this matter will be over just like that!" Upon hearing this, the constable agreed again. "What Cao Tou said is right! From his previous actions, we know that he is a smart man! A smart man will judge the situation and turn hostility into friendship. I believe he knows this as well."

"Back off!" Cao Bin waved his hand. Then, seeing the constable leaving, he reminded him again: "Remember to notify Shi Xiaoyuan and tell him that this matter is over for now!" "Yes, Captain Cao!" The constable bowed again and then left the house. Canglang Martial Arts School. "Master Wang, is there still no news about my brother?" Jiang Li's face was full of worry. Wang Jin shook his head slightly: "Still no news!" Then he looked at Jiang Li and comforted him, "Don't worry! I went to see Master Chen from the City Guards yesterday, and he said he would try his best to help me find Jiang Ning." "Thank you, Master Wang!" Jiang Li bowed solemnly. Wang Jin immediately waved his hands: "No need to do that, Jiang Ning is not only your brother, but also my disciple, the disciple I value most!" "Now that he's missing, I'll naturally do my best to find him!" "If something really happens to him!!" At this point, Wang Jin's eyes flashed with a fierce light: "Sooner or later, I will find out who is behind this and make him pay with blood!" Green Snake Gang Headquarters. "What did you say!" Shi Xiaoyuan, who was sitting on the white tiger chair, slammed the table and stood up. Boom—— The table beside him instantly turned into a pile of broken wood. The constable's eyes twitched slightly, and then he pretended to be calm and said, "Boss Shi, Cao Tou said that this matter is over!" "He said to stop it, so let it go? Wouldn't it be that my brothers died in vain?" Shi Xiaoyuan said with an angry face. Then he continued, "If this matter gets out, won't the other two major gangs laugh at me, Shi, for being a weakling who is afraid of a brat?" The constable said, "But Jiang Ning has Shen Congyun standing behind him. In two or three years at most, Shen Congyun will return to Luoshui County. As for Wang Jin, he is also someone who cannot be provoked." When Shi Xiaoyuan heard the three words "Shen Congyun", the corner of his eye twitched slightly. He also admitted that he had no right to offend Wang Jin. Then he snorted coldly. "Go back and tell Cao Bin that if Jiang Ning comes back safe and sound, I will not be able to swallow this anger. I will find a way to avenge my brother Hong." Upon hearing this, the constable cupped his hands and said, "I have conveyed what I need to convey. Please help me think about the rest!" "But Caotou has some ideas for me to convey to Gang Leader Shi." "There are two big mountains behind Jiang Ning, neither of them is easy to mess with!" "If Shen Congyun comes back one day, he will be almost invincible in Luoshui County. Although Wang Jin is old, there are only more than ten people in Luoshui County who can defeat him." "If Jiang Ning dies, then everything will be fine! No one will be enemies with the Cao family and the Green Snake Gang because of a dead person, but as long as he is alive, these two mountains will exist."

"If not for this, with Cao Tou's temperament, how could he choose to swallow this breath." "Moreover, if Jiang Ning was safe and sound when he returned, how he killed Hong Chengtao and Xu Yunfeng would also be a mystery! Gang Leader Shi must not forget this!" "He has the strength to kill Hong Chengtao, who is at the ninth level of martial arts, so he may be able to threaten the eighth level of martial arts!" "It is precisely because of this unknown reason that Caotou chose to give up. No one knows what kind of backup Shen Congyun left for him, and what level of strongman he can kill." After saying these words, the constable walked out of the house. Shi Xiaoyuan murmured until the constable went away. "Jiangning?" "I didn't expect this person to become so powerful that even Cao Bin chose to retreat." "But Shi is not that kind of person. Don't give me a chance. If I give me a chance, I will see what you can rely on!" "I was able to make my brother Hong capsize in the gutter." Another day passed. It's approaching noon. The east gate of Luoshui County. A man with a bag on his back and a long sword slung across his waist slowly approached. This person is Jiang Ning. "Finally I'm back!" Jiang Ning sighed as he looked at the three big words "Luoshui County" on the city wall in front of him. Although he had only been away from Luoshui County for a dozen days, he felt like he had been away for many years. Now that he has returned again, he feels indescribable emotion. Then he murmured to himself. "He suddenly disappeared for more than ten days. My elder brother and master must be worried!" Thinking of this, he quickened his pace and walked towards the city gate. at this time. At the city gate, a soldier came with a white wanted poster. As he posted the wanted poster at the city gate, people coming and going immediately gathered around him. "Sir, which criminal is wanted here?" A woodcutter carrying firewood took a look at the wanted poster that had just been posted and asked curiously. The official who posted the wanted notice also glanced at the crowd that had gathered around him, and then said, "Fellow villagers! Here's your chance to make a fortune!" "There is an order from above to arrest a notorious bandit who has committed crimes against Jiang Longtian." "Because this person committed a serious crime in Yaowang Valley, there is a reward of 100 taels for his capture. If you find any clues about this person and inform us, if they are effective, we will reward you 100 taels of silver." After hearing these words, the crowd watching suddenly went wild.

"Is what the official said true?" someone asked quickly. "It's written in black and white, so it must be true!" said the soldier. Then someone asked, "Is there really a reward of 100 taels for arresting this man? Is there really a reward of 100 taels of silver for finding this man?" The soldier added, "Anyone who can arrest Tian Buyi will receive a reward of 100 taels. This is endorsed by Yaowang Valley, so you don't have to worry about not being able to pay the money." Then the soldier added, "But fellow villagers, don't be greedy. This man is ranked eighth in the martial arts world and is a real bandit. It is the job of the big shots to arrest him. Don't think about the reward of 100 taels." "Provide the details of the discovery of Tian Buyi to our officials, either the City Guards or the County Office, and you will receive a reward of 100 taels of silver." After hearing this, someone asked again: "Sir, what is this Medicine King Valley?" Before the soldier could answer, someone spoke, shaking his head. "Medicine King Valley is a second-rate sect in Dongling County! Although this sect is second-rate, it has excellent ability in refining medicine and making pills, so it has a good relationship with people and is very wealthy." "If it is really Medicine King Valley that provides the reward, then there is really no need to worry about the reward." At this moment, Jiang Ning was also attracted by the wanted poster when he passed by the city gate. "He's only an eighth-rank martial artist, but there's a reward of 100 taels for his capture. Is that so exaggerated?" He clicked his tongue in his heart. He then stood at the city gate and took a look at the wanted poster. As he finished reading, he found that it was indeed as the soldier had said. Hunjiang Long Tian Buyi does possess the strength of the eighth level in martial arts. It was indeed because he committed a serious crime that angered Yaowang Valley, and then Yaowang Valley offered a huge reward for his arrest. There is a reward of 100 taels for his capture. Anyone who finds any trace and reports it effectively will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver. After confirming it without a doubt, Jiang Ning was even more surprised. You know, that’s a hundred taels of gold. One ounce of gold is equal to one thousand ounces of silver. One hundred taels of gold is equivalent to one hundred thousand taels of silver. What kind of taboo did this person violate in Yaowang Valley to receive such a high reward? Jiang Ning didn't understand. But just from the amount of the reward, he could feel the anger of Medicine King Valley. If he wasn't extremely angry, how could he have gone to such great lengths to bring the eighth-rank martial artist Hunjiang Longtian to justice? (End of this chapter)
