Chapter 68: Making noises in the east and attacking in the west, like a thorn in the back!
  now.

Under the thick and dark night, Lu Yuan's whole body was wrapped in night clothes, revealing only a pair of indifferent eyes.

Jin Zhenglin, who could not afford to be seriously injured, was like chaff and his blood was cold.

Although he is a frequent visitor to brothels and taverns, and has heard many rumors about various strange powers and deities among the people, he has always dismissed them and only regarded them as jokes.

However, the ghostly figure appearing out of thin air in front of him completely subverted his previous understanding.

However, facing Jin Zhenglin's trembling inquiry, Lu Yuan had no time to talk nonsense and just smiled and said:

"Very good. Now that you know who I am, you can save a lot of time. Let me ask you a few questions. If you can satisfy me, you will have a chance to survive."

This sentence undoubtedly confirmed his identity. Kim Jong-lin was as scared as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and he did not have any courage at all:
  "I said, I said, your Excellency, if I know anything I will tell you!"

"I have nothing to ask for, I just want you to spare my life!"

Lu Yuan said slowly:
  "Where did you get your cigarettes? Where do you store them? Which high-ranking official in Fengyang Mansion is protecting these people?"

This problem is obviously extremely fatal.

But facing a terrifying person like Tsing Yi Ke who kills without any calculation, Jin Zhenglin only hesitated for a moment and then confessed honestly with a pale face:
  "When my father and I went to Jinjin to visit friends, we happened to meet the owner of a foreign company. He claimed that he could provide us with a batch of cheap cigarettes, and we could make more than ten times the profit by selling them to Fengyang Mansion.

I knew that this big smoke was a scourge that poisoned the minds and bodies of all people, so I tried my best to dissuade them, but my father could not resist the temptation and reached a cooperation with the head of that foreign company."

"The big cigarettes we brought back will be processed in the gang before being sent to various opium dens. At present, there are only a dozen boxes of the remaining goods, all of which are stored in the gang warehouse. As for the senior official who protects us, it is Tongzhi Zhang of Fengyang Mansion. Mr. Tai Mingzhang, he has a good personal relationship with my father, and he also has 20% of the shares in the opium shop. If anything happens, he will help us settle it as soon as possible."

Tongzhi is the deputy position of the prefect, with an official ranking of the fifth rank. Each prefecture usually has one or two people who are responsible for local salt, grain, poaching, river defense, coastal areas, river engineering, water conservancy and other affairs.

In fact, Lu Yuan had inquired about the backer of this money gang during the day, and the reason why he abducted Jin Zhenglin was to confirm whether the information he had was correct.

Seeing Lu Yuan's silence, Jin Zhenglin turned pale under the fear of death and begged:

"Sir Qing Yi Ke, the decision to open an opium den and sell opium was made by my father. Although I, the young gang leader, wanted to stop it, I could not do anything to stop it. Youdao means that every injustice has its head and its debtor has its master. I have never done anything unscrupulous. If you let me go, I will go back and burn all the cigarettes, and the Money Gang will never do this kind of unscrupulous business again!"

In a life-and-death crisis, Jin Zhenglin sold his father out without hesitation.

Lu Yuan looked at his performance with a sneer in his eyes:
  "Really? Then tell me how much money the Money Gang earned from selling cigarettes in two years, and where is the money hidden?"

Jin Zhenglin did not hesitate for a moment, gritted his teeth and said:

"I made less than 100,000 silver dollars in two years, and I hid all of it in the bank. The bank is under my back house and is made of iron. There are two locks in total, and each lock requires two keys to open.

Now part of the key is with me, and the other part is with my father. If you need me, go and steal that one, then open the bank and give all the family wealth, just to atone for your sins! "

"very good."

Lu Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly and asked some more questions.

In order to save his life, Jin Zhenglin did not dare to hide anything at all and answered them one by one.

After answering.

Lu Yuan showed no emotion or anger, and Jin Zhenglin, who was a little unsure, asked eagerly:

"The villain has told you everything you want to know. Can you be kind and let the villain go? I promise to change my mind, rectify the gang, and do good deeds to benefit the people after I go back!"

"You are quite flexible."

Lu Yuan chuckled and said:
  "Okay, I won't kill you."

After saying that, he made a seal with his hands, magic power emerged, and his whole body instantly sank into the ground as if it was sinking.

what! ?

Seeing this incredible scene, Jin Zhenglin was shocked and turned to stone.

Then, he hurriedly supported his severely injured body and climbed forward. He moved his hands around, but what he touched was the cold and hard ground.

What's this? Spells and supernatural powers! ?

Is the guest in green a fairy, or is he using some kind of deception?

Something incomprehensible happened again before his eyes. Jin Zhenglin was stunned and speechless.

Just when he was extremely surprised and vaguely glad that he had escaped.

Suddenly, a big hand suddenly reached out from the ground and grabbed his ankle.

Before Jin Zhenglin could scream, he suddenly felt an inexplicable wave engulfing his whole body. The solid ground suddenly became as buoyant as the surface of the water, causing his whole body to fall into the ground and be enveloped in suffocating darkness!

"Do not--"

In extreme panic, Jin Zhenglin felt that he had fallen at least several feet underground. He just let out a horrified scream in his throat, but then he felt the hand holding him suddenly loosen, wrapping around his whole body, causing him to fall into the ground. The power in the underground also suddenly disappeared, and then the surrounding dark and cold soil was squeezed in overwhelmingly!

"Hmm."

Wrapped in desperate suffocation, Jin Zhenglin, who was already seriously injured, had no power to resist. In an instant, his eyes bulged out from being squeezed by tens of thousands of kilograms of soil, his orifices were bleeding, his lungs burst, and he died of suffocation.

As the young leader of the Money Gang, he died in the soil several feet underground without making a sound, not even a scream was heard.

Subsequently.

Under the dim stars and moon, Lu Yuan's figure slowly rose from the ground, staring at the ground:

"Using earth magic to kill people, this can be considered a creative use of mine."

The Earth Demon Technique was originally a sneaking and escape technique, but it was the first time it was used to kill people and destroy corpses.

And the effect shown is quite good. After all, the deeper the ground, the greater the pressure, and with the squeezing of the surrounding soil, any martial arts master who is dragged down will be at his mercy.

However, during the process of wrapping people with mana and dragging people to the ground, the enemy can also resist. It is okay to deal with a Jin Zhenglin who has been beaten and unable to resist, but it may be a bit reluctant to deal with higher-level martial arts masters.

"Next"

After obtaining enough information from Jin Zhenglin, Lu Yuan immediately rushed to the Money Gang's location without wasting time.

In order to save mana, he ran fast through the dark streets and reached the outskirts of the station in just a moment.

The Money Gang has a large base, with lanterns lit everywhere, and there are even gang members who keep vigil at some important places.

Because he had visited the place last night and during the day, and with the information provided by Jin Zhenglin, Lu Yuan used his invisibility technique to sneak in easily and found the so-called warehouse.

There are several warehouses of the Money Gang, located in the heart of the station. The only secret warehouse where the tobacco is stored is built in the compound next to the warehouse.

There are not only the vicious dogs and sentries of the Money Gang at the entrance of the courtyard, but also several capable gang members with muskets on their waists on the roof at the entrance of the secret warehouse, keeping watch at night.

In such a posture, ordinary people would not be able to get close, but Lu Yuan easily entered the secret warehouse with a terrain technique.

The secret warehouse was small and pitch-black inside. With his inhuman eyesight and sense of smell, he locked onto a dozen wooden boxes placed in the corner.

He stepped forward, pulled out his short knife, and pried open a wooden box in the dark. After inspection, he immediately determined that this was the tobacco he wanted to destroy. To destroy the smoke, naturally you cannot burn it all, otherwise the smoke will spread and cause greater harm.

Lu Yuan thought for a moment, then placed his hands on each wooden box, and then used the terrain technique while covering it with mana, directly sinking each wooden box more than ten feet into the ground.

Sinking underground and never seeing the light of day is also an extremely effective way to destroy it. After doing all this, Lu Yuan consumed most of his mana. If he hadn't refined four more strands of mana in the past two months, he would probably have used up all his blue bars at this moment.

So, he immediately sat cross-legged on the ground, took out two Sanbao Pills and put them into his mouth to refine and restore his magic power.

After recovering part of the mana.

He non-stop used the terrain technique again to sneak into the ground, heading straight towards the depths of the station and the residence where Jin Taihong lived.

But this time, with little need for repeated searches, Lu Yuan quickly found the location of the so-called silver vault.

Because when he was walking underground to the back house of the Jin family, he suddenly encountered an obstacle that even earth magic could not pass through.

The Earth Movement Technique can pass through soil, sand, gravel, or stone slabs of ordinary thickness. The only things that can block this technique are pure rocks, mountains or metals.

According to what Jin Zhenglin said, the walls and floors of the bank built by Jin Taihong were cast with a layer of pig iron. What blocked the earth's magic was obviously the wall of the underground bank.

However, this obstacle still could not stop Lu Yuan. He came to the lower part of the bank. After first listening to confirm that no one was there, he stretched out his hand in advance, pointed it into a sword, and used [Generate Light].

In the dark underground space, a condensed golden light no more than three inches long suddenly appeared on his fingertips, and then he stabbed lightly at the obstacle above his head.

laugh.

Like a red-hot knife piercing the butter, the thunderbolt's golden light easily penetrated the thick iron plate and carved a large hole.

After all, it is an Earth Evil Immortal Technique formed by extremely condensed mana, so it is naturally difficult for ordinary iron to block the edge of the light.

Breaking through the obstacle, Lu Yuan slowly rose from the cave entrance. With the light shining from his fingertips, he could see that he was currently in an underground secret warehouse more than one foot square. Everything above and below his head was made of cast iron. The iron plate can be said to be impregnable.

And in such a small space, there are four large wooden boxes.

After he stepped forward and opened it, he saw a large number of copper coins, silver coins, gold coins, and even some antiques, calligraphy and paintings, jade jewelry and the like.

Under the shining aura of pearls, even Lu Yuan, an immortal cultivator, looked slightly moved and his eyes were faint:
  "What a money gang, what a Kim Tae Hong"

This is obviously the majority of the wealth accumulated by the Money Gang. According to Jin Zhenglin, it is worth about one hundred thousand silver dollars. It is also unknown how many families in the south of the city represent the blood, flesh and tears.

Not in the mood to appreciate this huge treasure, he immediately closed the box, then pushed the four boxes to the large hole in the floor that he had cut, and sunk them more than ten feet into the ground one by one, leaving them for later use.

After doing all this, his mana, which he had not recovered much, was completely exhausted.

Afterwards, Lu Yuan sat cross-legged in the bank, put a large amount of pills and medicinal materials he carried into his mouth, took them and refined them.

A large amount of energy rises from the belly and is refined into true energy.

It wasn't until an hour later, when his mana had fully recovered, that he slowly opened his eyes in the darkness, his eyes as cold as lightning:
  "Next, it's the rightful owner's turn."

at the same time.

In the main courtyard of the Jin family's back house, in the master bedroom.

On the bed, the vigorous and majestic Jin Taihong slept in his clothes. At hand was a sheathed golden ring knife and a repeating musket.

His first wife has passed away, and although he has married five concubines, he never spends the night in any of them.

Especially when the Tsing Yi Guest turmoil intensified, he knew that the money gang's business would attract the attention of the other party and lead to assassination if not done well. Therefore, in recent months, he had been extremely cautious and vigilant even when sleeping. The sword and gun never leave the body.

Like this time.

dong dong dong.
  In the silent darkness, there was a faint muffled sound.

Jin Taihong, who had only been in a light sleep, suddenly opened his eyes and grabbed the golden ring knife next to him like lightning.

"This voice.?"

There was still a faint and extremely slight movement coming from the total silence. After listening carefully, his expression suddenly changed:

"It's the bank!?"

He stood up suddenly with a knife in hand, pushed open the door and rushed to the front yard.

The front yard was a garden, and the entrance to the cellar of the bank was also located here. He hurriedly arrived at the cellar in the corner, only to find that the entrance was locked and there was nothing unusual about it.

It's not just him at the moment.

The old housekeeper who lived in the courtyard next door also heard the noise. He rushed here vigorously with a lantern and asked in surprise: "Master, what was the sound just now?"

Although the old butler is also over fifty, he has been following Jin Taihong since his debut. It has been twenty years now, and his martial arts has reached the fourth level of thunder, and he is almost second in the gang. Yu Jin Taihong's second master.

It is precisely because of this kind of martial arts that he can detect the movement in another courtyard and react immediately.

"strangeness."

Looking at the intact iron lock, Jin Taihong narrowed his eyes and looked around dangerously:
  "Did someone just try to enter the bank? Where is Zhenglin?"

The old housekeeper replied solemnly:
  "Young Gang Leader, he took his men out in the evening and said they were going to Nuanxiang Pavilion. He hasn't come back yet. The voice just now must have nothing to do with him."

"Ok?"

This time, Jin Taihong's expression became even colder and stern, like an angry tiger king in the mountains.

Without saying a word, he immediately took out the key that he had always carried with him to sleep and opened the cellar door.

"Master, let me go down first."

The cellar stairs extended to more than a foot underground. The old butler walked down the stairs with a lantern, and then illuminated the space in the cellar.

The space in the cellar is neither big nor small, and there are not many clutter, and there is no one to invade and hide.

On the innermost wall, there is a thick iron door embedded in it, which is the door of the bank.

Jin Taihong also went down to the cellar at this moment, and came to the door of the bank where there was no sign of intrusion. His brows suddenly furrowed as if he didn't understand what the sound was about.

But now that he was here, out of caution, he took out the two keys to the bank door, inserted them into the door locks, and twisted them slightly.

There was a click, and the door lock bounced open with a crisp sound. Jin Taihong's strong arms slowly opened the heavy iron door with a little force.

And at this moment when the iron door was opened.

The light of the old butler's lantern next to him shone into the cramped space of the bank, and Jin Taihong's expression suddenly changed drastically!
  Because he had suddenly seen that the four large boxes that stored all his wealth in the bank were missing, and at the same time, a big hole was cut out in the iron floor, as if someone had already invaded!
  At this moment, his mind was shaken.

Behind them, a bright and cruel golden light suddenly flashed through the air, illuminating the entire bank at once!
