The evil forces roaming the heavens

Chapter 1224 Chaos in Jinling!

The rainy season is coming, and the drizzle falls along the eaves.

Looking at the water drops falling from the lotus in the clay pot, Zhang Cheng looked up at the sky with a leisurely look on his face.

Coming to Zhang Cheng's side, Cuizhu said, "Sir, there seems to be some chaos in the city today, you'd better not go out!"

"is it?"

Looking at the green bamboos beside him, Zhang Cheng, the culprit, looked clueless.
"A lot of families have been robbed recently, and it's said that the thief was a man who could fly!"

Speaking to Zhang Cheng, Cuizhu began to explain,
"Really?"

Pretending to be surprised, Zhang Cheng asked,

"Brother Wei on the street told me that the Royal Guards have arrested a lot of people."

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Cuizhu seemed very scared when she heard the words "Jinyiwei".
"Don't worry, I'm a scholar, they don't dare to arrest me!"

With a smile on his face, Zhang Cheng spoke calmly,
Since he encountered the Scent of Fragrance Sect that night, Zhang Cheng went out more frequently. After all, this thing couldn't be left unattended.

So Zhang Cheng was acting as a thief while investigating the Wenxiang Sect. Unfortunately, he didn't find any clues.

However, the Jinyiwei were very busy. On one hand, they were arresting the Wenxiang Sect, and on the other hand, they were looking for this flying thief!

In Dongcheng, in a house with five courtyards,

When the wealthy businessman woke up and saw that his storehouse had been robbed, he immediately yelled hysterically: "Damn thieves, my money is all gone!"

Without being able to catch his breath, the rich businessman collapsed to the ground.
Seeing the master's expression, the wives and concubines who came forward shouted,

A quarter of an hour later, when the detectives arrived and saw this familiar scene, they immediately covered their faces.
Because this is not the first time they have seen this kind of scene. In the past month, this kind of thing has happened almost every night.
When things are good, it's one or two, when things are bad, it's the whole street, so they are used to it.

"Wow, wow, wow, the fortune I have saved for more than ten years has been stolen just like that. Born, born."

Sitting on the chair and slapping his legs, the rich businessman couldn't help crying out,
"Master, don't we still have some silver in our basement?"

Seeing her husband in such pain, the wife beside him quickly spoke up.
"Yes, basement, basement!"

He ran desperately to the basement, only to see the rich businessman gasp and collapse to the ground after opening it.
Looking at the master, the wives and concubines who had rushed over were all stunned, because the entire basement had also been emptied.

Not long after, when the Jinyiwei arrived, they also had a headache investigating the scene.

After all, they have no other options when faced with this kind of situation.
You say that it’s okay for thieves to steal a few thousand or tens of thousands of taels of silver, but now, the accumulated silver is almost tens of millions, how can they find it?
The passing of geese leaves traces behind, but there is not even a trace of others, where can you find them!

However, just before the Jinyiwei were done with their work, a man ran in and shouted, "Oh no! Captain, the Zhen family, the Zhen family has also been robbed!"

"what?"

Upon hearing this news, the Jinyiwei centurion felt dizzy.
Because that's the Zhen family! This thief is really too bold!
As the president of the Jinling Provincial Tiren Academy in Jiangnan, the Zhen family's status is "infinitely high"!

Because their ancestor was the wet nurse of the retired emperor!

Regarding the affairs of Jiangnan, the Zhen family has the ability to report to the emperor.

It is precisely because of this that the Zhen family has such a status in Jiangnan, because they have the responsibility of supervision!
While the officials in Jinling City were busy, Zhang Cheng was playing with a jade pendant.
Looking at the priceless jade, spinning in his hands like a butterfly flying through flowers, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but smile and said, "Everyone says that being an immortal is good, but only gold and silver can't be forgotten."

"Master, Brother Wei is here to see you!"

When she came to Zhang Cheng, Cuizhu offered him tea.
"Brother Wei is here?"

After hearing Cuizhu's words, Zhang Cheng stood up, straightened his robe, and walked forward with a smile.

"Uncle, I have found the house you asked me to look for. It is right next to the Qinhuai River. When will you go to see it?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in front of him, Wei Geer couldn't help but speak,
"Oh, really?"

Looking at Wei Ge'er in surprise, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but laugh.

"Of course, I went to many dental clinics!"

Smiling at Zhang Cheng, Wei Geer couldn't help but speak.
"Let's go! Let's go and take a look!"

Hearing Wei Ge'er's words, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but squint his eyes, because he could finally enjoy his life.

Just imagine, living by the Qinhuai River, you can go there whenever you want and listen to music in the brothels, isn't that a beautiful thing in the world?
"Master, umbrella, umbrella!"

Seeing Zhang Cheng about to go out, Cuizhu immediately handed him an umbrella.
"Thank you sister!"

Holding the umbrella, Zhang Cheng smiled.

A few days later, the sun was shining brightly, perfect for moving.

The carriage carried many things into the yard. Ren Ya looked at Zhang Cheng and said, "Sir, this yard is worth four thousand six hundred taels in total."

"Here!"

Handing him the banknote, Zhang Cheng said, "By the way, I'm also looking for some honest maids!"

"Master, don't worry, I will arrange it for you right away. I guarantee it will be from a clean family!"

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Ren Ya smiled happily.

Just after Ren Ya left, Wei Ge'er asked in surprise: "Uncle, did grandpa make some money outside?"

"Yes, that's right!"

Taking out a silver coin, about twenty taels, Zhang Cheng handed it to Wei Ge'er and said, "Thank you for your hard work these days!"

"Uncle, this is unacceptable!"

Rejecting Zhang Cheng's kindness, Wei Ge'er quickly spoke up.
"You and I are uncle and nephew, why bother talking about this! Go back and buy something good for your mother!"

After stuffing the silver into Wei Ge'er's pocket, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but become serious.

Over the years, he seldom visited the family, and only had contact with Wei Ge'er, who was about the same age as him.

Although the two are uncle and nephew, they are more like close friends!

"In that case, thank you, uncle!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Wei Geer finally accepted the silver after hearing what he said.
Humming a little tune, Ren Ya was returning happily.

But just as he turned the corner, an engineer shovel hit him from behind.

"Duang!"

A crisp sound was heard, and the human tooth fell to the ground immediately.
The force is just right, and it won’t hurt your brain!

Krieger squatted down, took out the banknotes from his arms, and then turned and left.
A courtyard with three entrances requires him four thousand six hundred taels. Is this a joke?
As the old saying goes, even if you are innocent, you should be killed!

Not to mention being near the Qinhuai River, even if it is at the foot of the imperial city, it is still expensive.
So Zhang Cheng chose to vote blank!
After waking up, when Ren Ya touched the banknotes in his arms, he was stunned and yelled, "Thief! There's a thief! Woohoo! Damn thief!"

Two days later, when Ren Ya reappeared in front of Zhang Cheng, he had a piece of cloth wrapped around his head.

Looking at the other person's appearance, Zhang Cheng asked in confusion: "What are you doing?"

"Sir, I just went out and was knocked on the corner by a thief!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng with grievance, Ren Ya couldn't help but collapse.

"Why don't you bring more people?"

Looking at the human teeth curiously, Zhang Cheng asked,
"Five people, all of them were knocked out. That person was born, born!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Ren Ya couldn't help but get angry.
The corners of his mouth twitched as he looked at Ren Ya, while Zhang Cheng smiled and said, "Okay, introduce someone to me!"

"Okay, sir, this is Wu."

Just after Ren Ya started introducing himself, Zhang Cheng narrowed his eyes, thinking that he would knock him again later!
Ren Ya: Even though I deserve to be killed, can't you just be a human being?

Zhang Cheng: Am I still a human being?
