Ordinary people can also be extraordinary

Chapter 45: Finding clues to the murder of Sima Feng's family

"Thank you both for your help." Li Yingnan said as he kowtowed to them to express his gratitude.

Zhang Chen immediately stood up and helped her up. When he smelled her fragrance, his heart was moved again.

"Hurry up, this is all our job."

"We will kill any scum like this when we see them." Sima Feng said indignantly.

He had just listened to Li Qian's introduction of the cause and effect of the matter, so he was very angry with Wang Hao.

"Don't move. I will now inject spiritual energy into your body to find out if you have the qualifications to practice Taoism." Zhang Chen said to Li Yingnan.

Then a stream of spiritual energy was emitted and input into Li Yingnan's body. Zhang Chen closed his eyes and felt it carefully.

Li Yingnan stood still at this time, her heart tensed up, thinking of the two things that happened to her and the feeling of powerlessness, she longed to be like Zhang Chen, to cultivate immortality and learn magic, so that she would not be helpless in the face of such humiliation again.

After a while, Zhang Chen opened his eyes and looked at Li Yingnan. Li Yingnan also looked at Zhang Chen nervously, waiting for his next words.

"I just circulated the spiritual energy around your body and found that your meridians are unobstructed and your absorption of spiritual energy is normal. You can practice Taoism." Zhang Chen said to Li Yingnan with a smile on his face.

"Really! I can also practice Taoism and learn magic." Li Yingnan shouted in surprise, with a look of excitement on his face.

He ran to Li Qian and spoke to him happily. Li Qian was also very happy, but a trace of reluctance flashed in the corner of his eyes.

"If you join the sect, you will have fewer opportunities to meet your father in the future, do you understand?" Zhang Chen reminded Li Yingnan.

Li Yingnan looked at his father and his expression became embarrassed.

Li Qian came over and said to Li Yingnan: "Go ahead. Your father can't accompany you for many years. If you can cultivate immortality, I will be relieved."

Li Yingnan nodded with moist eyes and said, "Father, I will come back when I am free."

Zhang Chen looked at them and thought to himself: "Mortals are too fragile, that's why those evil people are so unscrupulous. How many families have been destroyed for their own selfishness?"

"By the way, we won't be going back to the sect for the time being. Uncle Li, do you really know nothing about the horse bandits I asked you about last time?" Zhang Chen looked at the two of them and spoke.

Li Qian came over and apologized to Zhang Chen: "Master Zhang, I didn't tell the truth last time because of Wang Hao's incident. In fact, bandits attacked our caravan recently."

Zhang Chen was surprised and asked: "Where was he attacked?"

"In a place called Wolonggou." Li Qian said.

Zhang Chen looked unfamiliar with what he heard. Li Qian said quickly, "Master, don't worry. I have a plan. I will contact the Chamber of Commerce right away and ask which other caravans have been attacked. I will then mark the locations of these attacks on the map. Let's see if we can find the pattern of those horse bandits."

Zhang Chen's eyes lit up when he heard this and he thought this was a good idea.

"Two immortal masters, the banquet is ready. Let's talk while eating." Li Qian stood up to greet Zhang Chen and Sima Feng.

Zhang Chen had no interest in food at first, but he didn't want to disappoint other people's kindness, so he went to the restaurant with Sima Feng.

There was a 10-meter long table filled with delicacies from land and sea, roast suckling pig, bear paws, bird's nest, steamed lamb...

Zhang Chen was stunned by what he saw. Zhang Chen had never seen anything like it, let alone eat it. However, the fragrance emanating from it made his appetite aroused. Zhang Chen seldom ate in the sect and always took fasting pills.

Without any polite words to Li Qian, they started to eat heartily. Zhang Chen's eating manners were better, at least he was holding the chopsticks and putting food into his mouth frantically. Sima Feng had already thrown his chopsticks aside and picked up the roast suckling pig and started to eat.

Li Qian and Li Yingnan were both amused and helpless. The servants covered their mouths and laughed secretly. Those who knew thought they were immortal masters, while those who didn't thought they were two gluttons. Zhang Chen and Sima Feng both had big appetites, but they didn't usually eat these things.

After half an hour, Zhang Chen covered his round belly and cried, "My mouth still wants to eat, but my stomach can't hold any more."

Li Yingnan couldn't stand it anymore and burst out laughing. Li Qian was shrewd after all, and tried desperately to hold back his laughter, which was very painful.

"Master, what do you eat in the sect?" Li Yingnan asked curiously as he watched the two of them devour all the delicacies on the table.

Zhang Chen took out a Bigu Pill, handed it to Li Yingnan and said, "Eat this."

Li Yingnan looked at the white pill in his hand, smelled it and found there was no smell, which puzzled him.

Zhang Chen explained: "Take one of these and you won't need to eat for seven days."

Li Yingnan nodded, feeling that it was a bit magical, and then returned the pill to Zhang Chen.

After Zhang Chen and Sima Feng had eaten and drunk their fill, they stayed in Li Qian's residence at Li Qian's request. Thinking that Li Qian would have to go and get information about the horse bandits, it would be more convenient for them to stay here.

At night, after everyone left, Zhang Chen came to Sima Feng's room.

"Senior Brother Sima, let's clean up the spoils." Zhang Chen said to Sima Feng while holding the storage bag in his hand.

Sima Feng was also curious about what was in Wang Hao's storage bag.

Zhang Chen took out all the contents of Wang Hao’s storage bag, placed them on the floor of the room, and began to count them.

Ten medium-grade spirit stones and more than a thousand low-grade spirit stones.

There are also dozens of talismans and more than a dozen bottles of pills.

Four books of martial arts and a spiritual sword covered with cracks.

A mace, some tokens, jade slips, clothes and other miscellaneous items.

When Zhang Chen was about to tell Sima Feng how to distribute it, he found that Sima Feng was staring at one place motionlessly, his eyes were excited, and his whole body was shaking.

Zhang Chen followed Sima Feng's gaze and found that Sima Feng was looking at a red dress. Zhang Chen took the dress and observed it carefully, but found nothing unusual.

"Senior Brother Sima, what's wrong with you? Is there anything wrong with this dress?" Zhang Chen asked puzzledly.

"The two people who killed my family were wearing this at the time." Sima Feng said word by word, his eyes filled with hatred.

Zhang Chen was also surprised when he heard it. Looking at the clothes, he found nothing special about them except for some strange patterns.

"Brother Sima, you are not mistaken, are you? Many of the clothes are very similar." Zhang Chen said.

"I really couldn't remember it clearly at that time. Now when I see this dress, I remember it. It's this kind of dress." Sima Feng said very firmly.

"Then let's take a closer look and see if we can find some clues from these things." Zhang Chen looked at the jade slips.

He picked up the jade slips, inputted his spiritual energy, and began to read them. After half an hour, Zhang Chen roughly understood some information.
