Chapter 45 Undercurrent is turbulent
There are more than ten acres of medicine fields in the Qinglian Gang. Lu Ming manipulated the black ants with magical powers, and spent an hour to investigate carefully, and finally found something.

At the foot of a hill near the medicine field, Lu Ming found a very hidden and winding secret road extending downward.

Out of prudence, Lu Ming did not show up to enter the secret passage in person, but remotely controlled Black Ant No. [-] to sneak into it to find out.

"Sure enough!" When Lu Ming saw a large amount of medicinal materials stored underground through the perspective of No. [-], he finally confirmed his guess.

The medicinal materials in it are of high quality, including many high-grade precious medicines, which cannot be produced by Qinglian's medical field alone.

Lu Ming can roughly speculate that this must be the county government stealing some of the medicinal materials produced by the county government's medicine field with this place, and then sending out the medicinal materials produced by the Qinglian gang as shoddy goods.

The key question now is, what did the county government do withhold these medicinal materials privately?Enriching one's own pockets, or exchanging benefits, or cultivating real martial arts masters?Lu Ming has no way of knowing for now.

The medicinal materials accumulated here alone cannot constitute any evidence at all. The county government can completely say that this is the warehouse where they store medicinal materials.

After thinking about it, Lu Ming didn't rush for success, but let Black Ant No. [-] hold the photo ball and hide it in the corner of the secret warehouse, and then quietly returned to the station with No. [-] and No. [-].

Lu Ming believed that the county government would never allow those herbs to pile up and rot, no matter what they were used for, they would definitely leave some clues, and then would be a good time for Lu Ming to take action.

It was almost dawn when we returned to the post station, Lu Ming had a good sleep, and it was already noon when he woke up.After calling Lao Hei to have lunch together, Lu Ming once again came to the dense forest behind the post station.

After confirming that no one was around, he took out a blood-colored jade slip from the time and space in his body, looked at the shimmering light on it, and hesitated.This is a communication jade slip from Mr. Ant, and the dim light means that there is news.

In the past, Lu Ming had never dared to take it out, for fear that the evil cultivators would find out his position with strange means.However, thinking of Mrs. Sun's reaction back then, it seems that the evil cultivator on the opposite side of the jade slip is not very strong, and there is still some room for manipulation.

"Is this evil cultivator related to the county government's reserve of medicinal materials?" Lu Ming had some vague guesses, so he took out this jade slip, wanting to confirm it.

"Try and talk." Lu Ming is now considered a master of art and bold, without much hesitation, he urged the jade slip.

"Brother, how is your side? I'm ready here."

"Brother, why don't you call me back, is something wrong?"

"Brother, I'm going to find you myself, are you there?"

……

The successive messages were obviously sent by the evil cultivator opposite him every once in a while, and Lu Ming could even feel that person's increasingly tense mood swings.

"Is Mr. Ant's brother?" Lu Ming put away the jade slip, and did not respond to the other party, in order not to startle the snake.

This information did not allow Lu Ming to get many effective clues, and it did not involve the county government, which was the last one that made Lu Ming secretly vigilant.

This Ant Lord's brother seems to be preparing to go to Qinglan City in person. Besides finding the Ant Lord, is there any other purpose?
Lu Ming was not sure, he could only sit on the sidelines and wait, maybe he still had a chance to catch this unknown evil cultivator.

"Recently, I have to hide No. [-] and No. [-] so as not to surprise the other party." After careful deliberation, Lu Ming decided to wait and see first, at least to know the other party's real purpose first.

As for No. [-], Lu Ming wasn't too worried. After several months of hunting and evolution, No. [-] was now in the realm of ninth-grade perfection, and he was absolutely sure of hiding his aura.

In the days that followed, Lu Ming would still take people out step by step to clear up hidden monsters in other places in Donghua Mansion. Although the harvest was getting smaller and smaller, it was still a way to make a fortune, and it should not be discarded.

More importantly, through dealing with other town monsters these days, Lu Ming has also broadened his horizons and his network of contacts in Donghua Mansion, and now his name is about to spread out of Donghua Mansion.

Tie Lihua even revealed that if Lu Ming is willing, he can now go to other counties to serve as the leader of the town demon division, and the future is bright.

However, Lu Ming politely refused in the end. He felt that he was still holding on to the important place of Qinglan City for the time being, and he had more room to play.Moreover, it is not too envious.

Behind Qinglan City is Donghua Mansion, to the east is Qinglan Mountain Demon Subduer, and to the south is the Zhennan Army and the barbarian leader confronting it. These are all considered by Lu Ming as potential opportunities, how can they give up easily?

In addition to the expanded whack-a-mole operation, Lu Ming would take time to look at the photo ball every day to look for clues.

However, although there are more and more medicinal materials in the secret path, there is no further change.

It wasn't until the night of the full moon on October [-]th that Lu Ming finally discovered something. It wasn't through taking photos, but after he personally sneaked into the medicine field of the Qinglian Gang, he saw it from the perspective of Black Ant No. [-].

In the medicine warehouse leading to the secret road at the bottom of the mountain, a small figure covered in black robes appeared. The first thing Lu Ming thought of was Mr. Ant. This person's appearance and aura were too similar to Mr. Ant. .

In addition to this person, Lu Ming also saw an acquaintance from the county government, County Wei Sun Shengfu.

At this moment, Sun Shengfu did not show his usual humility at all, but looked sharply at the vigilant black-robed man in the distance, and said coldly: "All the medicinal materials you want are here, where are the things we want?"

After a moment of silence, the man in black sneered, "Of course I brought the spirit stone, but I can't give it to you now. My elder brother disappeared with you, how dare I trust you so easily?"

As soon as the man in black opened his mouth, Lu Ming, who was hiding in the dark, confirmed even more that this man was the evil cultivator who sent a message to Mr. Ant.

Listening to his words, Lu Ming was even more startled. The deal between the Qinglian gang and Xiexiu was actually manipulated by the county government behind the scenes.

It was only because after the Qinglian gang was almost uprooted by Lu Ming, the county government lost its middleman, so it appeared in front of the stage and made a deal with this evil cultivator in person.

"Where do they have such courage! Lingshi... Could it be that there are demon subduers involved in Qinglan Mountain?"

The more Lu Ming thought about it, the more frightened he became. He thought that the Demon Subduer from Qinglan Mountain just appeared by chance last time. Looking at it now, I am afraid that there are more vested interests in Qinglan Mountain who are inextricably linked to this incident. contact.

The evil cultivator needs medicinal materials, and the demon hunters in Qinglan Mountain need spiritual stones. The two hit it off, and the county government is in the middle, so the three parties can be said to have what they need.

Lu Ming now even suspects that Donghua Mansion may be involved in this matter, or even the Zhennan Army and Man Yaoling.After all, Qinglan City was originally a place where various families fought openly and secretly.

"Sure enough, although staying here is full of undercurrents, it's more suitable for profiting from it." Lu Ming woke up from his trance, but became excited instead.
