Chapter 52 Cold Iron Ore

Chapter 52 Cold Iron Ore

The mountain road is rugged, and a convoy is struggling forward.

With a click, the shaft of the carriage broke, and a flatbed carriage suddenly rolled over to the ground. All the packages on it fell on the mud floor, and some of the contents fell out, all of which were medicinal materials.

Pa, seeing such a scene, the guard on the horse immediately whipped Li Fu fiercely. He was wearing the costume of the Yaowang Gang.

"You damn slobs, hurry up and pick up all the medicinal materials. If they are destroyed, I will demand your lives."

With ferocious faces, in front of these honest Lifus, the Yaowang Gang gang members made no secret of their ferocity.

Under the urging of the whip, it didn't take long for the convoy to move forward again.

Deep in the dense forest, Zhang Zhong narrowed his eyes as he quietly watched this scene.

"This direction is the direction to Shaoyang County, but it has deviated from the main road. Where are they going? And these medicinal materials."

Puzzled in his heart, Zhang Zhong continued to follow the convoy as he watched the motorcade move forward again.

During this period of time, he conducted an in-depth investigation on the Yaowang Gang, and then found that the Yaowang Gang was transporting a large number of medicinal materials, but the specific use was unknown. He felt that there might be something hidden inside, so he chose to follow up and investigate.

"This is a new road that has just been opened up. Although it is rough, it is by no means a day's work."

Following along the way, Zhang Zhong gradually had some guesses in his mind, and after arriving at a village built in the wild, Zhang Zhong confirmed his thoughts.

Although the village is not big, the security is extremely strict. Almost everyone is holding a knife and a gun. The most important thing is that these people have a fierce aura, and they can see blood at a glance.

"It really is smuggling."

Watching from afar, Zhang Zhong did not approach rashly.

Seeing that the two parties have completed the handover skillfully, Zhang Zhong understands that the transactions between the two parties must have been carried out many times.

"These people have a fierce breath but loose discipline. They are not like good people, but closer to bandits."

Observed carefully, seeing the convoy returning the same way, Zhang Zhong did not follow.

After squatting for a day and a night, after seeing a black eagle soaring into the sky, Zhang Zhong had a guess in his heart and left quietly.

·······
Song Yanshan, all the way speeding, Zhang Zhong appeared in front of Zhang Chunyi with a face full of wind and frost.

"The Medicine King gang colluded with the Blood Eagle Pirates to smuggle medicinal materials?"

Looking at the spread out map and listening to Zhang Zhong's narration, Zhang Chunyi showed a hint of surprise on his face, which he had never thought of before.

"Anything else to discover?"

Sliding his fingertips on the map, Zhang Chunyi asked a question.

Hearing this, thinking about what he had discovered, Zhang Zhong took out a piece of gravel that was as black as ink, with a luminous metallic luminescence, from his bosom.

"Master, that camp should be just a transshipment point for the blood eagle bandits. Besides medicinal materials, there are also ores in the transshipment materials. This is a piece of gravel I obtained by following the transshipment convoy through some means, but I don't know what kind it is. "

As he spoke, Zhang Zhong offered the ore with both hands.

Hearing this, he took the ore and looked it over carefully, a gleam flashed in Zhang Chunyi's dark eyes.

"The color is like ink, the quality is like steel, and it is cold to the touch. This is cold iron ore."

Comparing it with the records in the Baicao Qijin Record, Zhang Chunyi confirmed the type of the ore in his hand.

Cold iron is a first-grade spiritual ore, tough in nature, and although it doesn't have too many mysteries, it is extremely versatile, and it is a common material for immortal practitioners to refine magic weapons.

"Do you know where this ore comes from?"

Playing with the cold iron ore in his hand, Zhang Chunyi spoke.

"Master, according to my observation, this kind of ore was not transported from other places, but was mined by the blood eagle bandits in this area. However, this area is heavily guarded, and there are often blood-eyed eagles parading in the sky. To avoid alarming others, I didn't approach it rashly, so I can't confirm the specific situation."

Pointing out a location on the map, Zhang Zhong expressed his guess.

Hearing this, looking at the point on the map, Zhang Chunyi became more and more interested.

"You mean that there is a cold iron vein in this area?"

Hearing this, he nodded, and Zhang Zhong gave an affirmative answer.

"interesting."

Sliding his fingertips on the map, Zhang Chunyi looked at the area carefully. The blood eagle camp is located at the junction of Changhe County, Pingyang County, and Chongshan County, Shaoyang County. The veins were really discovered, and there were indeed conditions for sneak mining.

"Master, do you need me to do further investigation?"

Seeing Zhang Chunyi who was obviously interested in the cold iron vein, Zhang Zhong asked in a low voice.

Hearing this, Zhang Chunyi waved his hand. Judging from the situation Zhang Zhong described and the value of the cold iron ore, that place must be heavily guarded, and there may even be immortal cultivators. Hey, maybe Zhang Zhong might get himself into it.

"Is there any news about that Taoist Matu?"

Having already made a decision in his heart, Zhang Chunyi changed the subject.

Hearing this, Zhang Zhong's expression suddenly became gloomy, and with his aquiline nose, he looked even more gloomy.

"Returning to young master, as you expected, this Taoist Ma Tu is indeed a wolfish and ambitious man."

"According to the clues I have investigated, it seems that the Yaowang gang has already taken refuge in this Taoist Matu. Coupled with his previous series of campaigns, his goal is already very obvious, and it is Changqingguan."

Thinking of Ma Tu's wolf ambition and Nie Changliang's betrayal, Zhang Zhong felt angry rising in his heart.

Hearing this, Zhang Chunyi's expression remained unchanged, and he was not surprised. He had expected this.

"Is there any information about Ma Tudao's monster?"

Compared with Taoist Ma Tu's wolf ambition, Zhang Chunyi cared more about the monster that Taoist Ma Tu refined.

"My subordinates are incompetent. I haven't made much progress after investigating for a long time. I only know that Taoist Ma Tu has driven a green-scaled dragon horse. I don't know anything else. Please punish the young master."

After speaking, Zhang Zhong knelt on the ground and landed with a sound.

Seeing such a scene, Zhang Chun stretched out his hand to help Zhang Zhong up.

"Uncle Zhong doesn't have to be like this. It's not easy for you to find out this information in a short time."

"As for the strength of Daoist Ma Tu? Don't worry too much about it. At most, he can only lock the three souls. If he is really strong enough, he doesn't need to use these sneaky tricks."

Hearing these words, Zhang Zhong felt better, but his face was still gloomy.

"The Yaowang gang is a subordinate force of Changqingguan, and they must take it back. If Uncle Zhong really minds, he can completely rebuild an intelligence organization based on this at that time, so that things will be much more convenient in the future."

Seeing Zhang Zhong like this, Zhang Chunyi spoke again.

Hearing this, Zhang Zhong nodded solemnly.

"The Medicine King gang has taken refuge in the Taoist Matu, and the Blood Eagle Pirates and the Medicine King gang have joined forces to smuggle medicinal materials. It seems that the Taoist Matu and the Blood Eagle Bandit should have some relationship, and even the reason why the Medicine King gang has a relationship with the Blood Eagle Knife It's because of him."

Looking at the map again, Zhang Chunyi's thoughts kept turning.

"You still have to go and see for yourself."

Tapping the table with his fingertips, Zhang Chunyi made a decision in his mind.
