Wuxia: I Know a Little Too Many of Them

Different from the burly, stout, and lively Hu Jiacheng that Chu Tang saw two days ago, the latter is now lying on the bed, breathing like thunder, with a face as purple as gold, half of his life is gone, and he may die at any time to see the King of Hell.

With this look, if he was still acting secretly, he would owe him an Oscar.

In addition to Hu Jiacheng on the bed, there were several family members in the room, men and women. Some looked sad, some were crying. The atmosphere was so pitiful.

After Chu Tang came in, one of the family members possessed Hu Jiacheng and said something in his ear. Then he waved his hand and all the family members left.

"Master Chu, you are here..." Hu Jiacheng was panting like an ox, sweating profusely, and his voice was extremely low.

Chu Tang glanced at Zhou Xiang behind him and told him to stay where he was. He took a few steps forward and walked to the bed.

He brought more than a dozen detectives here, and the others had already ordered them to search around the iron shop. Only Zhou Xiang came to see Hu Jiacheng.

Fang Kaidu said that he relied on this person a lot, so Chu Tang naturally took it to heart.

"What did Boss Hu want to say to Chu? What happened?" Chu Tang lowered his body and listened.

"Last night, Hu was in the shop...preparing, preparing materials, for you..." Hu Jiacheng continued intermittently, unable to finish a sentence for a long time.

Chu Tang frowned slightly, thinking that it was so serious. He was afraid that it would be like the situation in many TV dramas. When giving his last words, he died before he could speak, leaving the listeners messy in the wind.

That won't work!

Chu Tang doesn't allow this to happen. Xuan Tie belongs to him and he can't just stand by and watch!

Thinking of this, Chu Tang suddenly interrupted Hu Jiacheng's words, helped him up from the bed and sat up, then jumped onto the bed, sat behind him, turned his hands into palms, and pressed against Hu Jiacheng's back, lifting his inner energy, Gurgling into the past.

Hu Jiacheng wanted to say something else, but he suddenly felt waves of warm Qi coming from his back, nourishing his limbs and bones and repairing his meridians and bones.

"Team Leader Chu is healing the other party's wounds?" Zhou Xiang, who was watching in the room, opened his eyes wide and looked incredulous, "It's just to investigate a case, but he actually spent such a huge amount of money?"

Transferring Qi to save people requires extremely deep and profound internal Qi, and consumes a lot of energy. It is equivalent to extracting a person's internal energy in an instant, leaving an empty shell of the body.

People whose inner energy is slow to recover do not dare to take such risky actions for fear of leaving irreversible trauma to their bodies.

But today, Zhou Xiang saw his squad leader helping a dying man to breathe without any hesitation. He was surprised and admired at the same time.

After a cup of tea, a quarter of an hour passed quickly, until it was almost half an hour.

"Hey!" The Hu family who was sitting quietly took a long breath and slowly opened his eyes. He felt that most of the vitality in his body had been restored, and the helplessness of dying gradually disappeared.

"Am I alive?" Hu Jiacheng knew his own situation best. After suffering such serious injuries, he was bound to die. He could only hold on until now by hanging on with his breath.

He just wanted to hold on until someone from the county government came to explain the whole case of Xuan Tie's robbery, so that the county government would not vent their anger on the Hu's iron shop after his death.

Unexpectedly, Chu Tang gave him a surprise and saved him by using his energy!

Hu Jiacheng was so excited that he jumped up from the bed and thanked Chu Tang, who was still sitting on the bed adjusting his breath: "Master Chu's life-saving grace will be unforgettable by Hu! In the future, Master Chu will have his destiny, and Hu will go through fire and water. Don’t hesitate!”

Chu Tang didn't respond to him and just meditated and adjusted his breath.

Hu Jiacheng didn't get up. He kept kneeling on the ground, raising his head and staring at Chu Tang closely, with tears filling his eyes.

After a long while, Chu Tang took a deep breath and opened his eyes.

Looking at Hu Jiacheng who was kneeling on the ground, Chu Tang slowly got out of bed, helped him up, and asked: "Is Boss Hu okay?"

Hu Jiacheng stood up, touched his body, and said fearfully: "I can't die! Although I'm still injured, my life is saved. Mr. Chu's great kindness, Hu can't repay..."

"Don't do this! You must never commit yourself to me!" Chu Tang was startled and interrupted the other party again.

Hu Jiacheng was embarrassed and nodded repeatedly with a smile.

Chu Tang was sure that the other party's life was not in danger, so he couldn't help but feel a little relieved, and secretly admired the wonderful effect of Shen Zhao Jing.

It is indeed the most magical skill to save lives. He just tried it out in a small way. The first time he used it to save someone, it was effective!

"Okay, don't be polite. Let's talk about Xuan Tie!" Chu Tang was still more concerned about the situation of the case.

"Yes!" Hu Jiacheng nodded heavily and asked Chu Tang and Zhou Xiang to sit down beside the tea seat in the room. Then he began to talk in detail, detailing the whole story of Xuan Tie being robbed.

It turned out that just after midnight last night, Hu Jiacheng had just finished checking the processing of some materials for creating a fifth-grade magic weapon, and was about to go to sleep when he suddenly heard a scream coming from the warehouse.

Xuan Tie was hidden in the warehouse. Hu Jiacheng did not dare to neglect and rushed over immediately. He only saw an apprentice guarding the warehouse lying next to the door, breathless.

Immediately afterwards, a man in black clothes and a mask rushed out of the warehouse, holding a box containing black iron.

"A thief who came to steal?" Upon seeing this, Hu Jiacheng was furious and rushed forward to capture the thief.

Unexpectedly, the other party had exquisite Qinggong and superb martial arts. With just a flash, he came to Hu Jiacheng, struck out with a palm, and hit him hard on the chest.

Hu Jiacheng was hit by a palm. At that time, he felt extremely cold. He lost consciousness and fell into a coma.

When he woke up again, he was placed on the bed by his family and apprentices, who immediately asked what happened.

It turned out that after he fell into coma, his family members and disciples who were awakened by the noise also took action, but they didn't even see a trace of the culprit. They only found the corpse of a fellow disciple and the unconscious Hu Jiacheng, and then they worked for most of the night. It was easy to ask the doctor to revive Hu Jiacheng.

Hu Jiacheng had no time to feel sad and immediately told his disciples to go to the Yamen to report the crime at dawn.

Looking left and right, Chu Tang and his party finally arrived.

Chu Tang gave Hu Jiacheng a big surprise and pulled him back from the gate of hell.

"That's what happened." Hu Jiacheng said at the end, feeling sad, angry, and frightened at the same time. "Master Chu, Hu has practiced martial arts and iron since he was a child, and he has also reached the three realms. The family's Shanshan Fist is unparalleled in power and extraordinary strength. Don't Speaking of the three realms, even if he meets someone from the fourth realm, Hu is still capable of fighting. But last night, Hu was defeated in just one confrontation. The opponent's strength is probably extraordinary!"

"Above the fifth level?" Chu Tang's face was solemn, and he told Hu Jiacheng's guess.

Hu Jiacheng looked serious and said in a deep voice: "He is definitely a warrior above the fifth level! Mr. Chu, what should we do?"

As far as he knew, the highest level of cultivation among the entire yamen's agents was only the fourth realm. How could they catch thieves above the fifth realm?

Chu Tang did not respond to him, but turned to look at Zhou Xiang who was sitting aside, and asked slowly: "Brother Zhou, what do you think?"

Zhou Xiang, who had a smooth face, smiled and said, "Are you asking what the squad leader thinks of this case, or whether you want to track down and apprehend the culprit?"

Chu Tang glanced at him and said decisively: "I will capture and kill these thieves who kill people and steal goods!"

This was his first case in the county government. If he gave up halfway, wouldn't it be looked down upon?

Besides, Xuantie was given to him to build a magic weapon, and now it was taken away. If he didn't even let go of it, how could he understand it?

Also, if there are thieves, they have chivalrous values. It would be foolish not to do them!

Zhou Xiang's face gradually became solemn when he heard this, and he said in a deep voice: "First of all, the thief broke into the warehouse with a clear goal. I don't think he acted impulsively, but after careful investigation. In other words, he came here for Xuan Tie! Secondly, his martial arts is very strong. Moreover, Boss Hu said that he was very cold after being hit, and he probably practiced a cold-nature technique. Once this is confirmed, our investigation will have some direction."

After hearing this, Chu Tang couldn't help but nod his head and said: "What Brother Zhou said is absolutely true. Since it was a careful investigation, he stayed in the city for a while. The passing geese leave sounds, and the passing people leave traces. Together with the cold nature skills, it really gives gave us clues to pursue.”

"The class leader is wise!" Zhou Xiang praised.

Chu Tang let out a laugh and said: "Team leader Fang said that Brother Zhou is familiar with the black and white people in Gui County, the county and the city. Then we need to ask Brother Zhou to put more effort into this case and find out who knows Han Xing Gong in the city." Masters of magic, as well as masters who have appeared around the Hu family's iron shop, or people and things where rumors of black iron have spread."

Zhou Xiang was not polite. He looked at the sky outside, raised his hands and said, "It's just past Chen Shi, and by Shen Shi, there will be news for the squad leader!"

Chu Tang yelled, a little surprised.

Promising to check a city with a population of 100,000 in more than three hours, Zhou Xiang has a lot of energy. No wonder Fang Kai recommends him!

The two of them stopped talking nonsense, explained some things to the Hu family, and then went to see the dead person again.

This unlucky guy had been dead for almost a night, but his body was still emitting cold air, which showed that he was indeed a master of cold-nature skills.

After leaving the Hu's iron shop, Zhou Xiang hesitated and said to Chu Tang before going to inquire about the news: "Board leader, we still have to consider whether Hu Jiacheng is guarding and stealing."

Chu Tang shook his head and said, "I thought so at the beginning. But just now I helped him breathe, and found that he was indeed seriously injured and dying. If my inner strength hadn't just restrained the coldness in his body, he would have died at this time."

"In that direction, it is more certain that an outsider committed the crime." Zhou Xiang became more confident, "The team leader will wait for good news about Zhou!"

After saying that, he shook his body and walked away.

Chu Tang smiled when he saw this, and couldn't help but sigh: This guy is not serious. He is not afraid of being beaten to death if he takes such a step of disowning his relatives!

But soon, his mind returned to the case: "Xuan Tie is so tempting! Even masters from the fifth realm and above do this kind of blatant door-to-door robbery."

After thinking about it all the way, when he returned to the county government office, Chu Tang received even worse news——

In addition to the Hu's iron shop, three more iron shops came to report, saying that someone broke into their iron shop last night, killed or injured people, and also took away the black iron stored in their iron shop!

Chu Tang was dumbfounded: All four iron shops were robbed of black iron overnight? !

Why does it feel like this matter has suddenly become an important and major case!

Xuan Tie was robbed in a series of cases? !
