Chapter 47: Fury Burning in the Flying Pavilion

  Zhang Wu suddenly moved, and Zhang Jun's subconscious mind set up the frame of the True Wu Mother Fist. He then stepped on the Teng Long step with his foot, and in a flash, he arrived at Zhang Wu's left side. A punch burst out, which was actually the hammer style from the Tai Chi Nine Forms, evolved from the True Wu Mother Fist, with tremendous power.

  Zhang Wu felt Zhang Jun's fist turn into a thousand-pound hammer, heavily smashing down. He subconsciously overlapped his hands and pushed upwards.

  "Boom!"

  The ground shook slightly, Zhang Jun's body didn't move, but he shifted three steps back in a strange way. Zhang Wu felt a pain in his arms and retreated two steps with a "thud", looking over in surprise.

  Hua Buqi laughed and said: "Zhang Wu, in a year or two, Zhang Jun will be able to beat you until your teeth are all over the ground."

  Zhang Wu sighed and said: "In the past, Master said that someone who practiced for three days would be more powerful than others who practiced for three years. I didn't believe it at first, but now I have to believe it."

  Zhang Jun rubbed his fist, thought of something and asked: "Master, what kind of trick did the master of Yuxu Temple use? It can actually stir up the qi and blood in my body, and I was able to practice lead mercury energy overnight."

  "That's the Wudang Guanding method, which can unblock your entire body's qi and blood. In this world, only a handful of people can achieve this."

  "Even Master Lian can't?" Zhang Jun asked curiously.

  "It can't be done." Huabu Yi said, "Actually, the medical skills of Yu Xuguan's master are also very high. Moreover, his cultivation is higher than mine, and his understanding of the human body is even more profound than that of a master. If Master has reached the Dan Qi level, he can indeed impart it to you."

  When the three returned to Donghai, it was already late. After arriving at the hotel, Zhang Jun shaved his beard, combed his hair, and changed into new clothes, immediately restoring his original appearance when he entered the mountain.

  After cleaning up, Zhang Jun knocked on the door of Huabu Yi's room and asked, "Master, can I formally become your apprentice now?"

  "No." Huabu Yi's answer was quite unexpected for Zhang Jun.

  "Still not enough?" He smiled bitterly, "Then when will it be?"

  Master Hua said: "There are too many interests entangled in the body of the master, and you can't bear this burden until you become strong enough."

  "Alright, disciple, just keep working hard then."

  "Zhang Jun, from now on you have half a year to digest what you've learned in the mountains. After half a year, I will send you to the army for actual combat experience."

  Zhang Junyi was taken aback: "Go to the army?"

  "Not bad, going through life and death tests can make a person progress, whether it's willpower or insight, both will take a leap in quality." Huabu Yi said.

  Zhang Jun nodded: "I understand, Master. In these six months, I will try my best to improve."

  "Alright, for these six months, you can also take care of your own matters. I won't interfere with you." After saying that, he let Zhang Jun leave.

  Back in his room, Zhang Jun first made a phone call to his family. He had been in the deep mountains for nine months and hadn't made a single call, so his family must have been worried.

  The phone rang for half a day before it was answered, and he laughed and asked, "Mom, is business still good?"

  "Son, don't go back to Qinghe, they're all looking for you." Lu Hongmei's worried words came through the phone.

  Zhang Jun's heart tightened and he hastily asked: "Mom, what happened?"

  Lu Hongmei then recounted the events of the past half year. It turned out that starting from six months ago, many hoodlums would occasionally run into Lu Hongmei's store to cause trouble.

  Zhang Guozhong had no choice but to call the police. However, those little rascals were very cunning, and when the police arrived, they would run away. But after the police left, they would come back again, making Zhang Guozhong and his wife feel annoyed.

  Things got even worse later, they started throwing feces into the store, and even threw gasoline bottles, making Lu Hongmei and others nervous all day, forcing them to close the door.

  But that's not all, those little rascals actually found Qiang Guozhong's home, splashed red paint on his door, threw eggs at it, defecated and urinated in front of the door, and even cut off the power lines, clipped the internet cables, and slashed the car tires, making the Zhang family anxious and unable to rest.

  Finally, they openly declared that the Zhang family must hand over Zhang Jun, otherwise they would kill people and set fires to destroy the entire Zhang family. This scared the Zhang family members so much that they didn't dare to contact Zhang Jun and Zhang Guoqiang, fearing that they would be harmed. Besides, at that time, Zhang Jun was in the mountains and couldn't receive any messages.

  "Damn it!" Zhang Jun's eyes were about to spew out fire, and he felt a killing intent bursting out of his head, his eyes slightly reddening.

  "Mom, don't worry, it will be fine soon." After finishing speaking, he comforted a few more sentences before hanging up the phone.

  He first called Lin Xian and briefly inquired about the situation of the jewelry store. It turned out that after nine months of preparation, Tianhang Jewelry Store was ready for everything, only lacking Zhang Jun's east wind, and he could open for business as soon as he returned.

  Zhang Jun said apologetically: "Mei Jie, I just returned to Donghai, but now I have to go home for a while. Let's talk about the opening later."

  "It's okay if you're late for a few days, just call me as soon as you get back."

  That night, Zhang Jun told the matter to Zhang Wuyi, who was furious and chose five brothers who could fight. They decided to set out for Qinghe with Zhang Jun early the next morning.

  The next day, the seven of them took an 8am flight to Dongling City. The plane landed at around 11pm and they chartered a car to continue their journey to Qinghe County.

  While driving, Zhang thought of Shang Yang having some influence in Dongling City and gave him a call.

  The phone was answered, and Shang Yang was very happy when he heard that it was Zhang Jun. He said, "Younger brother, you've finally thought of me! Haven't you returned to Donghai yet?"

  Zhang Jun wiped away a cold sweat and said, "Shang Ge, sorry about that. I've been busy lately and forgot to get in touch."

  Shang Yang smiled brightly: "No worries, there's plenty of time in the future. Younger brother, what brings you to find me?"

  Zhang Jundao said: "Shang Ge, do you have any connections in Qinghe County? I need to handle something and require cooperation from the public security system."

  Shang Yang thought for a moment and said, "I don't have any business in Qinghe County, but Qinghe County belongs to Yuyang City. I'm planning to invest in Yuyang, so I should be able to influence Qinghe County through the Yuyang City government."

  "Alright, thank you, Uncle Chang," Zhang Jun said.

  "Little brother, you're being too polite, your business is my business."

  After hanging up the phone, Zhang Wu said disapprovingly: "Brother, why not just kill the troublemaker directly? Why bother letting the Public Security Bureau intervene?"

  Zhang Jun shook his head and said, "I think things are not that simple. My parents are honest and kind people, they wouldn't offend anyone. Those people must be targeting me, and those little rascals were just following someone's orders."

  "So we want to follow the trail and get to the bottom of things, we must rely on the power of the public security system. After all, it is the country's violent tool, and it can investigate faster than us." said Zhang Jun.

  Zhang Wu thought for a moment and said: "Who do you think did it?"

  Zhang Jun's eyes were cold and stern, saying: "No matter who it is, I will not let him off lightly!"

  Qinghe County, Zhang Jun rushed to his home with Zhang Wu and others. When they arrived at the gate, they found a mess on the ground, and the walls were also covered with red paint, as well as many intimidating words.

  He felt a pang of guilt in his heart, walked forward and knocked on the door, saying loudly: "Mom, I'm back."

  The door opened, and Zhang Jun saw his haggard-looking mother, who had lost a lot of weight, with an anxious expression, and a hint of worry flashing in her eyes from time to time. His heart ached, and he almost shed tears.

  "Mom." He took a step forward and hugged Lu Hongmei, "Sorry!"

  Lu Hongmei saw that it was her son and felt both happy and afraid, hastily saying: "Son, quickly leave, don't let them see you, otherwise you'll be in danger."

  "Mom, it's okay now, I've chased them away." Then he asked, "Where's Dad?"

  Lu Hongmei's eyes suddenly turned red, and she said: "Your dad was driven to desperation last month, took a kitchen knife out to chase people away, but ended up getting his leg broken by them. He is still in bed recovering from the injury."

  Zhang Jun gritted his teeth and walked into the bedroom, only to find Zhang Guozhong lying in bed with a pale face and a listless expression.

  "Dad, is your injury better?" He asked softly while sitting on the edge of the bed.

  "Xiao Jun is back, I'm fine, just need a few days of rest." Zhang Guozhong forced a faint smile.

  Zhang Jun secretly examined and found that Zhang Guozhong's lower leg bone was broken, with steel nails inside and plaster outside. He secretly used golden light to enter the wound to accelerate the recovery of the injury.

  "Dad, don't worry, I have friends in the police department and they promised to help me solve this." Zhang Jun said to reassure his parents.

  "Good, we must punish those social scum." Zhang Guozhong heard this news and was overjoyed, saying loudly.

  After keeping his parents company for a while, Zhang Jun kept all five people brought by Zhang Wu and let them watch the yard. If anyone else came to make trouble, they would be beaten up directly.

  He then went with Zhang Wu to the Qinghe County Public Security Bureau.

  The head of the Public Security Bureau in Qinghe County is named Du Rulong, he is the local emperor of Qinghe County, colluding with local evil forces, doing all kinds of bad things, with a very bad reputation. However, his brother-in-law is Zhao Weimin, a standing committee member and organization department director of the Yuyang Municipal Party Committee, under whose protection he remains safe and sound to this day.

  At this moment, Du Rulong was in a small villa in the county town, fondling a seductive woman he had just kept. Just as he was about to get down to business, the phone rang.

  He picked up the phone and said impatiently, "Hello? What is it?"

  "Director, just now our bureau received a call from the municipal party committee. They said two people will be coming over soon and we need to cooperate fully." The secretary's voice came through the phone.

  Du Rulong pinched his plump belly and asked, "Has he said anything about his background?"

  "The municipal party committee didn't say anything, just asked us to cooperate fully," said the secretary.

  "Alright, I'll be right there." He hung up the phone and fondled his mistress for a while, causing her to pant and sigh before finally leaving.

  He got into the Audi A6 and sped to the bureau, muttering to himself, "Is the other party a friend of the municipal leaders? Otherwise, why would the municipal party committee be alerted?"

  At this time, Zhang Jun and Zhang Wu were already seated in the director's office of the Public Security Bureau. The secretary politely served tea and sat beside them, saying some meaningless words.

  After sitting for over ten minutes, Director Du Rulong, with a big belly, walked into the office and said loudly: "You two have waited long enough. I am Director Du Rulong. What can I do for you?"

  Zhang Jun stood up and said: "Director Du, we hope you can help us investigate something."
