Chapter 20: Walking on the road at night for a long time will inevitably lead to encountering ghosts.

  "Tian Meng's jade pendant appraisal is settled!"

  "My tattoo is done!"

  "The fake ID card is also settled!"

  Tang Zheng walked on the road of Hui Dong Street, constantly counting the gains from this trip to Jibao Pavilion.

  Although the authentic ID card won't be delivered for another three months, which slightly displeased Tang Zheng, he also unexpectedly obtained an unknown medicinal pill on this trip, which was a pretty good consolation gift.

  "Hmm, it's acceptable." Tang Zheng nodded his head.

  After returning to Tangjia Bu, he had two things to do.

  The first thing is what he promised Tian Meng, to properly instruct and teach the young masters of Tangjia Fort!

  The second thing is that he still needs to cultivate his star power as soon as possible, and expand the spatial channel of the purple gold belt a bit. Not to mention far away, within a month, he will have to send Ding Jin to the Aggregation Pavilion. He can't waste his precious time every day being a "Purple Gold Cutter"

  The ID card is something he must get his hands on.

  Only when he got the ID card did he truly become a part of Xingyao Continent!

  "Wait a minute, I just agreed on a price of... five hundred taels of purple gold?" Tang Zheng counted and counted, but suddenly realized that there was something else to consider.

  The value of five hundred taels of purple gold was no problem for him, but the weight of five hundred taels of purple gold...

  Three months later, if he were to carry fifty kilograms of gold bricks and swagger down the road on West Street, he couldn't even imagine how he would be blasted into smithereens after such a showy display of wealth!

  Before he could think this matter through...

  His ears suddenly perked up.

  Then he quickly dodged and turned into a small alley on one side.

  Just as he turned into the alley, a team of twelve blue-clad family guards happened to arrive on the road he had just left!

  Wulong Town has just had a light rain shower.

  The streets are lined with one or two-story low-rise buildings. The quiet streets under the blowing of the night wind appear even colder.

  With a team of blue-clad guards, was a two-star warrior. He looked at the empty streets and rubbed his hands: "This sudden cold snap has come suddenly, today we'll split into pairs and disperse to find people. Let's complete today's inspection task early and get back home early."

  A group of blue-robed servants suddenly appeared like a swarm of bees.

  The cold is comparable to half a winter, if they follow the usual investigation method, they will have to spend an hour or so, but if they scatter and search separately, it will be much faster. Anyway, it's late at night, I estimate that nothing can be found, just wait for them to complete their task as usual, then those who want to drink can go drink, and those who want to hug their wives can go hug their wives.

  However, among this group of blue-robed men, the last two exchanged a glance.

  The two of them were different from other servants - they were from Fengmen Village and were Blue Shaoze's trusted men!

  Because Lan Shaoye wanted to avoid punishment, he misled the Hui Lan Mountain Villa with some information. Now only his confidants know that what they are looking for is not a two-star or above martial artist, but rather a one-star martial artist and an ordinary person who can't even light up their star symbol!

  "Lan Shao has lost his patience! He's killed several people in the past few days, if he can't find those two again... Xiaogui, we're probably not going to live for much longer..." One of the middle-aged confidants said nervously.

  Lan Shaoze has been living a life worse than death for these past ten or so days.

  He, who was used to being high and above, had to keep a low profile for over ten days. Not only was his power divided by more than half, but he also had to endure the ridicule of his brothers and sisters. Although he didn't show any emotion on the surface, in his heart, he couldn't wait to find the person who made him fall into such a situation and skin them alive.

  Lan Shaoze gave his trusted aide a deadly order: if he couldn't find it again, he would take his head and go see him directly!

  "Old Ding, cheer up! Think positively, who knows, we might run into those two raccoons tonight? Not only will we show off in front of Blue Shao, but the reward will be enough for us to live a carefree life for over a decade!" Little Gui patted Old Ding's shoulder and said with a smile.

  "Who has such a good thing as a pie falling from the sky? Besides, one of those two is a first-class warrior..."

  "Starve to death for being timid, burst to death for being bold, when it really happens, adapt to circumstances!"

  "What does it mean?"

  "If we can beat them, the two of us will get all the credit and be the first to succeed. If not," Little Gui patted the whistle at his waist, "won't someone else be called?"

  "You little scamp!" Old Ding shook his head and walked away, but suddenly stopped in his tracks, his eyes wide with surprise. "My god, Xiao Gui..."

  "What's wrong?"

  "Who would have thought it? Today we really stumbled upon a stroke of good luck!"

  A figure flashed out of the exit of a small alley in front!

  Although Lao Ding and Xiao Gui were not brought into the hut by the snake, they had not formally crossed paths with Tang Zheng and Tian Meng before, nor had they seen Tang Zheng up close. However, they still had some impression of Tang Zheng's height and gait.

  "Old Ding, is that really him? Are we dreaming?" Little Gui asked in a low voice, suppressing the excitement in her heart.

  "It's blurry, but it looks like it."

  "Follow him! Better to kill a thousand by mistake than to let one escape!"

  "But..."

  "It can't be helped, if it's really him, then we two brothers are truly in luck today!"

  ……

  The night was quiet and clear, and the evening on West Street had also become peaceful.

  Tang Zheng almost noticed their presence at the same time as the two people following him.

  "Ah, not bad." Tang Zheng smiled to himself, "Fallen behind?"

  Tang Zheng rubbed his own ears.

  Can't those two people following behind us stop talking? During the process of tailing, you can't speak, only make gestures. This should be basic common sense!

  Can't you be more professional and sincere?

  "Lao Ding, it's him! He's the one who can't even shine brighter than the stars!" Little Gui's voice was low, but still clearly entered Tang Zheng's ears.

  "He... he's alone?"

  "Really? Do you want her to be with that one-star guy?"

  "Of course... certainly not... don't hope..." In Old Ding's voice, the kind of ecstatic joy as if he had just picked up a fortune was clear to Tang Zheng.

  There is no one on the street anymore.

  Tang Zheng could hear the footsteps of two people behind him quickening and slowly approaching him.

  Tang Zhengyi smiled, put away the few things in his pocket, tightened the zipper, and suddenly accelerated, sprinting forward!

  Tang Zheng only heard a low cry of surprise from behind him, followed by the sound of footsteps directly following.

  The footsteps of two people who had been suppressing their voices suddenly became a little urgent.

  Like a cooked duck flying away, with a pace that is both startled, angry and urgent.

  Tang Zheng was very unhappy.

  Whoever is treated as a cooked duck will probably not be happy either.

  Actually, just a little further ahead, about 400-500 meters, and you can leave Xijie.

  Once he entered Dong Street, the people from Yuelan Manor didn't dare to chase after him.

  However, Tang Zheng did not leave!

  He suddenly stopped in his tracks, turned around and ran back, charging towards the two door guards of Fengmen Village!

  Wow!

  Both were shocked!

  Whoosh...

  Whoosh...

  Two leopard-shaped stars suddenly rose up from behind Old Ding and Little Gui.

  However, they had just risen to stardom and only felt that Tang Zheng suddenly crashed into them, then turned around and ran away from between the two of them!

  "Huh?" Xiaogui was stunned for a moment, then suddenly pulled Lao Ding, "It's him! I'm sure I saw it clearly! It's really him!"

  "But why didn't he run out of Xijie..."

  "The terrain on West Street is complex," Xiao Gui judged the situation and immediately rushed in the direction of Tang Zheng, "He must be trying to escape, no nonsense, chase him!"

  Now for Xiaogui and Lao Ding, Tang Zheng has completely become their captive!

  It can be said that this is a great opportunity for them to change their whole life!

  What could be a better opportunity than this?

  Night, West Street, enemy falls alone.

  "A heaven-sent opportunity must not be missed!" Little Gui directly activated his star power and chased after him.

  Two people who can already afford to indulge in astrology, if they can't even catch a weak and timid person without any astrological signs, they will absolutely regret it for the rest of their lives!

  The terrain of Xijie is indeed very complex.

  Tang Zheng rushed left and right, turning through alley after alley, as if there was no end in sight.

  The two men were panting, but Tang Zheng's pace didn't slow down in the slightest. Xiao Gui's eyes grew anxious: "He's running fast enough, if we keep chasing like this, someone else might snatch the opportunity!"

  Lao Ding's face also changed color upon hearing this.

  However, they soon discovered that their luck today was really good. Xiaogui's face lit up: "He...he turned in front..."

  Old Ding almost shouted out: "Dead end! That place is sealed off, it's a dead end!"

  "Tomorrow, we'll really go find a land temple to worship!" Xiaogui pinched Lao Ding's shoulder, with greedy and ferocious glints in his eyes, like an evil spirit. "Lao Ding! As agreed, once we get inside, you attack from the top, I'll attack from the bottom! Let's see if he can still turn the tables on us!"

  "Hey, it's impossible!" Old Ding was also delighted.

  I really didn't expect it, I thought I had already lost him, but he actually turned into a dead end by himself.

  Since it's a dead end, he has no way out!
