Martial Arts Across the Heavens: Becoming a Martial God Starting from the Big Boss in Tangshan
Chapter 23 Deep into the Demon's Lair, Encircled and Attacked
The situation is unusual.
Tang Long and Chen Wen wasted no time and quickly made preparations before setting off.
The refinery was located in an extremely remote area, but that was not a problem for Tang Long and Chen Wen at all.
The two of them did not make a big fuss along the way, but quietly avoided a few not-so-secured sentry posts, and successfully found the refinery.
However, upon seeing the scene before them, the two couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.
This isn't a factory; it's more like a heavily guarded mini-fortress!
High walls and electric fences, searchlights scanning back and forth, the patrolling thugs all looking fierce and menacing.
Does an ice repair factory need such stringent protection?
There should be limits to joking!
"Brother Long, this is the factory that produces refined ice!" Chen Wen couldn't help but gasp in amazement.
Tang Long's face had turned extremely ugly, and he gritted his teeth and said:
"I've been here before, but it looked like an ordinary factory back then. I never imagined it held such a big secret."
"It seems Boss Han really does have a problem!"
He was more familiar with Boss Han's business layout than Chen Wen was, and the security forces here were more than ten times greater than reasonable!
As Chen Wen carefully scanned the area ahead, he asked in a low voice:
"What's next? Call the brothers to attack together? Or think of another way?"
Tang Long fell into deep thought.
To be honest, although the defenses here are tight and there are many thugs, going back to call for reinforcements is the right choice.
However, he had some concerns in his heart.
Among those workers, how many are truly trustworthy?
What if there's a mole among Boss Han's people? We can't afford to be complacent about this.
Moreover, he wanted to confirm further to avoid unnecessary sacrifices, but this was his business and he couldn't implicate Chen Wen.
"Awen, I want to go in and check it out. You go back first..." Tang Long was about to arrange for Chen Wen to leave.
Chen Wen suddenly smiled and shook his head, saying:
"Brother Long, are you kidding me? You want me to watch you go on this adventure alone?"
"As the saying goes, 'Brothers fight side by side,' we may not be blood brothers, but you'll always be my Brother Long!"
Tang Long was stunned upon hearing this, then nodded vigorously:
"Alright, let's venture into this den of dragons and tigers!"
The two looked at each other and nodded in unison.
Instead of launching a direct assault, they used the cover of night and the shadows of the buildings to climb the high walls like geckos, avoiding the blind spots of the searchlights.
They infiltrated the factory area without making a sound.
Although it is already late at night, the factory is still brightly lit.
But the air was filled with a pungent, strange smell that made people nauseous.
There are indeed many blocks of ice in this factory, and they are being processed and repaired.
But the problem lies in the processing method!
It's not about cutting ice into various special shapes as you might imagine.
Instead, there were rows of simple workbenches piled with large amounts of white powdery substance!
Workers are carefully pressing the powder into the layers inside the ice, or using special tools to fill the gaps in the ice!
What made Tang Long's eyes widen in fury was...
Several corpses were found frozen among a pile of ice in the corner of the factory!
One of them was Xu Jian!
That once bold and resolute face is now nothing but bluish-purple discoloration and the agonizing contortions of its final moments!
Especially the fatal wound on his chest, which was clearly visible!
"Brother Xu... Brother Xu?!"
Tang Long let out a low growl, clearly trying to control his voice.
But his body began to tremble violently uncontrollably!
Boss Han clearly stated that Xu Jian died in an accident, but his body has not been found.
But why would it be hidden inside this ice factory?
Moreover, it wasn't just Xu Jian; the other corpses were none other than the coworkers who had disappeared earlier!
At this moment, all doubts and all wishful thinking were completely shattered!
Boss Han is exploiting their desire to save lives to help him commit crimes!
Pitt, the black boss, was right.
Whether they know the truth or not, they are helping Boss Han double-cross others!
Right now!
Ring ring! A sudden, urgent alarm sounded!
"Who?!"
"Intruder!"
The loud noise instantly alerted the guards and workers in the factory!
The factory was more heavily guarded than they had imagined!
"We've been discovered?"
"Let's go! Take Brother Xu with us!"
Tang Long was instantly enraged.
The pent-up grief and anger, the fury of being deceived, and the heartache over the tragic deaths of his compatriots erupted within him like a volcano!
His eyes were bloodshot, veins bulging on his forehead, and he let out a heart-wrenching roar!
He slammed a violent punch into the ice block next to him!
Click!
The hard ice shattered, finally revealing Xu Jian's body to the light of day.
Chen Wen reacted quickly and immediately stepped forward to help Tang Long lift Xu Jian's body.
However, it was too late!
The sound of hurried and rapid footsteps came from all directions!
The factory gate was violently kicked open!
The blazing torches instantly illuminated the dimly lit factory as bright as day!
Surrounded by a group of fierce-looking thugs, Boss Han slowly walked in, his face shifting between light and shadow, utterly gloomy.
Han Qianlong followed closely behind, his face showing a hint of mockery and a chilling killing intent.
"well……"
Boss Han immediately spotted Xu Jian's corpse, as well as Tang Long, who exuded a terrifying murderous aura, and Chen Wen, who was protecting him.
He let out a long sigh, his tone carrying a feigned regret.
"Tang Long, Tang Long, why did you come here? I truly admire you and cherish your talent."
"If you work steadily for me, we can all make money. Why push yourself into a corner?"
He spread his hands, as if to demonstrate a merciful choice:
"Considering your skills, I'll give you another chance, and also give this young man Chen Wen a chance."
"Put down that ungrateful piece of trash Xu Jian and keep working for me."
"The factory manager position at the main plant will be yours from now on! You'll have complete control over the territory and manpower outside! Wealth and glory will be within your grasp!"
"Pah!" Tang Long suddenly looked up, his eyes burning with deep-seated hatred and contempt.
"Han Yingjie! Stop with your disgusting tricks!"
"I was blind to have been used by you for so long, causing the death of Brother Xu and so many innocent compatriots! Today, I will take your dog's life to atone for the souls of the dead!"
Despite seeing Tang Long's expression of wanting to devour him, Boss Han remained unfazed, instead offering a disdainful smile.
"I knew you were stubborn all along, so I kept everything from you. It seems you really don't know what's good for you."
"Never mind..." he said, then looked at Chen Wen.
"Chen Wen, you're a smart man, a martial arts prodigy. Don't you think it's a waste of your talents to work for Tang Long?"
"You killed Tang Long, and I'll make you the factory director! Money? Women? Status? They're all yours! Why should you be buried with a dead man?"
Upon hearing the other party's enticing offer, Chen Wen burst out laughing.
"Heh, Boss Han, don't bother with such clumsy attempts to sow discord. I won't agree, and Brother Long won't suspect me."
"As for what you said, although it's very good, there are more important things for me."
Boss Han was slightly taken aback, somewhat surprised.
That's right, he did intend to sow discord, but he didn't expect the two of them to have no reaction at all.
As far as he knew, Tang Long and Chen Wen had only known each other for a few dozen days. Did they really trust each other that much?
But it doesn't matter.
"I know you are devoted to the pursuit of martial arts! I can teach you too. You may not believe it, but I am also a martial arts master."
Chen Wen immediately shook his head to interrupt him, his expression hardening as he shouted sharply:
"I believe you, but you have no idea what the martial arts path that Brother Long and I are pursuing truly is!"
Upon hearing this, Boss Han seemed to have been provoked and became enraged.
"You say I don't understand martial arts? You two ungrateful bastards! You're asking for it!"
All pretense vanished from Boss Han's face instantly, leaving only a chilling killing intent:
"They won't listen to reason, so they'll have to suffer the consequences. Kill them!"
He waved his hand, and the thugs behind him, who had been waiting impatiently, immediately responded.
They immediately brandished machetes and iron bars, roaring and shouting as they charged forward!
"They're here! Watch out, Ah Wen!"
