Chapter 12 Him

The night remains dark, and the moon is high in the sky.

Zhang Chu sat cross-legged on the cushion, silently recovering the magic power he had just consumed.

Several corpses have been buried in the corpse pit. The headless corpses will enhance the essence of the Yin Gathering Land, while the rest will be injected with corpse qi and wait for the transformation.

Even if the transformation was successful, they would just be a few black zombies. Apart from helping him improve his strength, they would not cause any harm to Zhang Chu at all.

As the magic power continues to operate, the empty Dantian is slowly recovering.

In a flash, the sun rises.

"Ding! Ding! Ding! Taoist priest, are you up?"

Old Liu arrived at Zhang Chu's door early in the morning.

"Woke up!"

Ever since he acquired magical powers, Zhang Chu has been meditating instead of sleeping. Every morning he is full of energy. Hearing the voice, he got up and opened the door, only to see Lao Liu standing in front of the door with an anxious look on his face.

"What's the matter?"

"I heard the sound of fighting last night,"

Seeing Zhang Chu was safe and sound, Old Liu breathed a sigh of relief, "I'm glad to see that you're okay!"

For Lao Liu, the charity cemetery is not just a charity cemetery, but a guarantee of his life for the rest of his life.

In the charity cemetery, not only does he have no worries about food and drink, but even the big shots who used to be high and mighty greet him with a smile. How could he want to lose such a life?

He knew in his heart that all this was caused by Zhang Chu, and only if Zhang Chu was safe could he continue to enjoy all this.

"Don't worry! I'm fine!"

After all, Zhang Chu has lived two lives, so how could he not see what Lao Liu is thinking?

"Master,"

Seeing that Zhang Chu was fine, Lao Liu quickly said, "Here comes the Wu Constable from yesterday!"

"Captain Wu? Take me to see it!"

Zhang Chu was a little confused. Didn’t he just come here yesterday?
The two men walked towards the reception room in front. As soon as they got there, they saw Wu Hei drinking tea there with a few yamen runners.

"Greetings, Taoist Changsheng!"

When Captain Wu saw Zhang Chu coming, he quickly stood up and said, "We have already found out the origins of the two bodies that were delivered yesterday!"

"Wu, please come over and inform the director."

"Oh?"

Zhang Chu sat down, looking surprised, "What is your origin that you would bother the captain to come in person?"

"Those two were bandits from Taihang Mountain. They were killed. The news has spread. It is said that someone will come here to seek revenge in the near future."

Wu Hei quickly explained, "Master Ling asked me to come and inform the Taoist priest so that he can make preparations early!"

"Did Lord Ling ask the captain to notify you?"

It turned out that Ling Tuisi was involved? Could there be other secrets? Zhang Chu was slightly stunned, then smiled, "I run a charity cemetery, so I can't find this place to seek revenge, right?"

"However, thank you very much for the reminder, Captain. Thank you very much!"

"Master Changsheng, you are too polite!"

Wu Hei waved his hand and winked at several of his men, "Wu has been notified of the matter, so I'll take my leave!"

"I am sending the chief constable down with you!"

"Master, stop!"

Before Zhang Chu could react, Wuhei left quickly as if he was avoiding the plague god.

The Taihang Mountain bandits are not easy to deal with. If they were easy to deal with, they would have been wiped out long ago.

If you get involved in something like this, one mistake could lead to death.

Looking at Wu Hei who was leaving in a hurry, a thoughtful look flashed across Zhang Chu's face, and he quickly reacted: the bodies of those two gangsters were sent here by someone who was probably testing the power of Yi Zhuang.

"Master, we..."

Although Old Liu didn't know what was going on, his age was there, so how could he not see that something was wrong?
"okay!"

Zhang Chu waved his hand and said, "Continue to recruit teachers to teach Qingfeng Mingyue. You don't have to worry about other things!"

"Yes, Taoist Priest!"

Seeing Zhang Chu's suspicious expression, Lao Liu didn't dare to speak.

It really wasn't something he worried about.

After sending Old Liu away, Zhang Chu sat on the armchair and thought to himself. After thinking it over, he still believed that this was most likely Ling Tui Si's test.

After all, Zhang Chu couldn't think of anyone else in Jingzhou who could wield Wuhei except Ling Tui Si.

Ling Tui Si is not just the prefect of Jingzhou, he is also the leader of the Longsha Gang, a local gang in Jingzhou.

Whether openly or secretly, the entire Jingzhou was under his control.

No matter what happened in Jingzhou, he could not hide it from him. As a captain of police, he would not dare to do anything without telling Ling Tui Si.

It is even possible that Wu Hei was a thug of the Longsha Gang, and he became the chief of police after Ling Tui Si became the prefect of Jingzhou.

In fact, when the charity cemetery was just built, Zhang Chu discovered that there were often people wandering around the cemetery. They were obviously not farmers and had a slight smell of gangsters.

It goes without saying that they are here to monitor the charity cemetery.

But what could Zhang Chu do at that time?

He was just a Taoist priest with nothing but magic power. Even if he had some magic power, it would be very difficult for him to deal with those martial artists. Now it was different. Now that the Iron Corpse had appeared, Zhang Chu really didn't take ordinary martial artists seriously.

"It seems that Ling Tui Si needs to be taught a lesson!"

"Otherwise, it would be annoying to have such endless temptations!"

Zhang Chu said to himself.

It doesn’t matter whether Ling Tui Si was testing him or not. What’s important is to demonstrate Yi Zhuang’s strength.

Who made Ling Tui Si's power the largest in the entire Jingzhou?
According to common sense, as long as the strongest is defeated, those small shrimps will not dare to touch the tiger's whiskers lightly.

Thinking of this, Zhang Chu smiled: Maoshan is not only able to slay demons and monsters, but its nightmare-suppressing technique is also quite powerful.

Dealing with Ling Tui Si, who is not familiar with magic, is a piece of cake.

Just do it. Zhang Chu stood up and walked towards the quiet room.

Just when Zhang Chu went to the quiet room, Wu Hei also returned to Jingzhou City.

"grown ups,"

Wu Hei stood in front of Ling Tui Si respectfully and said, "I have already gone to investigate. Taoist Changsheng is fine."

"Just like usual!"

"Still as usual?"

Ling Tuisi sat on the armchair and waved his hand, "You can leave now!"

Wuhei retreated immediately.

This result was not unexpected to Ling Tuisi.

After Zhang Chu arrived in Jingzhou City, Ling Tui Si began to investigate Zhang Chu.

Two or three months passed, and there was no result at all. It was as if Zhang Chu had popped out from a crack in a rock, and nothing could be found.

Jingzhou is Ling's Jingzhou, a sudden force of unknown origin, although it appears to be extremely harmless now.

However, for Ling Tui Si, any uncontrolled force is an unstable element.

To put it in one sentence: Jingzhou does not allow such a powerful person to exist.

He stayed in Jingzhou just for the priceless treasure. Anyone who might threaten his ability to obtain the priceless treasure was not welcome by him.

In particular, he was even more upset by the fact that Zhang Chu, a Taoist who had been investigating for such a long time but still had not found any source.

This was extremely unsettling for someone like him who had a strong desire for control and great ambition.

So he planned to test it out by putting the bodies of a few bandits in the charity cemetery and having people snatch the bodies to see how strong the charity cemetery was.

"My lord, my lord!"

Just as Ling Tui Si was thinking, a figure ran in hurriedly.

"what happened?"

Looking at the hurried master, Ling Tui Si felt a little displeased.

"My lord, something happened last night!"

The lawyer spoke breathlessly and told Ling Tui Si what the people who were monitoring the charity cemetery saw last night.

"You mean, after the group of bandits entered the Yizhuang, fog suddenly appeared, and the fog only covered the Yizhuang without spilling out at all?"

"And the few people who went in didn't come out?"

"Yes, my lord!"

Although there are gods and ghosts in this world, they are just games to fool people.

Ling Tui Si knew this very well.

Now, after hearing the reports from his subordinates and Captain Wu, even Ling Tui Si, who was very shrewd, felt a chill.

After all, those who sneaked into the charity cemetery last night were not mediocre people. They were all well-known bandits in Taihang Mountain. Even if he faced the siege of those people, he could not say that he could escape unscathed.

"Why don't you let me take someone to try it out again?"

The master looked at Ling Tui Si who had a gloomy face and volunteered.

"no!"

Ling Tui Si thought about it for a moment and refused directly.

It’s not that he feels sorry for his men, but his men are precious and they are all his trusted men. How can he waste them on such a meaningless test?

"Why not let him try it out?"

Ling Tuisi stroked his beard as if he had thought of something. "If he wants to settle down in Jingzhou, he must do something for us."

"What did your Excellency say?"

The master looked at Ling Tui Si in confusion, and then quickly responded, "You said it was him?"

"Ok!"

Ling Tuisi nodded, "It's him!"

“This is indeed a good idea!”

The master nodded, "I'll call him over right away!"

Seeing Ling Tui Si nodded, the master walked out.
