When he returned to the county guard residence, Qiu Zhen didn't remind him. Tang Yin asked Cheng Jin to investigate the origin of the bullies in the night market and who supported them.

After hearing this, Cheng Jin said yes. After thinking about it, he asked again, "my Lord, it may be inevitable to use some tough means during the investigation. I don't know if my Lord will allow it?"

Tang Yin didn't even think about it. He directly replied, "as long as it's necessary, just let go."

Cheng Jin blinked and asked, "what if someone dies?"

Tang Yin thought for a moment and said, "as long as it doesn't exceed the scope of the investigation, I can ignore it."

Listening to Tang Yin's words, Cheng Jin was completely relieved and said, "my subordinates will check it now and give a satisfactory reply to adults within two days."

With that, Cheng Jin was ready to go. Tang Yin suddenly remembered another thing, stopped Cheng Jin and said, "there is a teahouse called Chunxiang Pavilion near the night market. Officers and soldiers will seal it up tonight. You can check which Corps those officers and soldiers belong to."

"Yes, my Lord!" Cheng Jin promised, turned and left quickly.

Tang Yin allowed Cheng Jin to use lynching in the process of investigation, which has also been implemented by the hidden arrow. The reason why the future hidden arrow is frightening is that its cruel and complicated punishment is also one of them.

It's easy to investigate the bullies around the night market, and it's not difficult to find out the identity of the officers and soldiers who went to the teahouse. Cheng Jin, Aoqing and Jiaxi acted separately and soon found out the matter.

The bullies in the night market also have a great background. They are all the servants of Wang Meng, the Lord of Hengcheng city. They forcibly collect property in the night market area is not two days a day, but every day. They have attracted complaints from the vendors in the night market. However, they are afraid of Wang Meng's power, and the vendors dare to be angry and dare not speak.

As the saying goes, it's better to be in charge of the county. Wang Meng is the Lord of Hengcheng and is in charge of the big and small affairs of Hengcheng. His imposition of taxes was suppressed by him. Tang Yin and Shangguan Yuanji, who is in charge of internal affairs, were unaware of it. In addition, the officers and soldiers who went to the teahouse to seal up were not from the five Corps in Pingyuan County, but the officers and soldiers in Hengcheng city. These officers and soldiers were not many, nor were they incorporated into the Corps, nor did they participate in training and combat. They were in charge of public security in the city and were directly dispatched by the city master.

Hengcheng officers and soldiers went to seal up the teahouse, which was naturally an order from Wang Meng. The drama in the teahouse shows all his forced collection of property. Wang Meng is also afraid of the spread of the news. If the news reaches Tang Yin or Shangguan Yuanji, his situation will be bad. But what he never thought was that what happened that night was just touched by Tang Yin, who pretended to be wandering.

After finding out everything, it is reasonable to say that Cheng Jin should send the news back to Tang Yin and finish the job, but he did not do so, but planned to continue to trace it.

Ao Qing and Jiaxi were puzzled and asked, "what else do we continue to check?"

"Cha Wangmeng!" Cheng Jin said slowly, "we're just trying to find out the general situation now. There's no conclusive evidence in our hands. What if when adults ask Wang Meng, he refuses to admit it? If not, adults will blame us for our bad work!"

Aoqing and Jiaxi thought carefully, the secret way is reasonable! Then Aoqing asked, "what's the matter with Wang Meng?"

Cheng Jinning said in a voice, "check his family's money bank. Wang Meng collects the merchant's property privately. There must be a lot of money in his family. He is just a city Lord and can't get much salary every year. As long as he finds out his family property, he won't be afraid of his repudiation."

Hearing the speech, Aoqing and Jiaxi smile at each other. They all praise Cheng Jin for his intelligence and comprehensive work.

That night, Cheng Jin, Aoqing and Jiaxi secretly sneaked into the city master's house. All three of them are outstanding spiritual practitioners of the dark system. Sneaking is perfect for them. Moreover, the city Lord's mansion is not a place of dragons and tigers. There are no spiritual warriors with advanced cultivation, which makes their actions more smooth.

Cheng Jinsan, dressed in pure black spirit armor, fell on the roof and didn't move. They really seemed to be integrated with the night. If they didn't watch carefully, it was difficult to find three big living people lying on the eaves.

When the ghost of Shi Jiaxi and Ding Jiaao are walking in front of each other, they appear as the shadow of Shi Jiaxi and Ding Jiaao.

Without waiting for the two servants to react, Jiaxi hit a servant on the neck. The servant didn't hum. His eyes turned white and fainted. The other servant looked pale. Just about to open his mouth and shout, he found that he couldn't shout a word. It turned out that a big hand had stretched out from his back and tightly covered his mouth.

The spirit armor was cold, and the servant felt that his mouth was blocked by ice.

"Don't shout! Dare to say a word, I'll move your head!" Cheng Jin held the servant's mouth close to his ear and whispered.

When did the servant encounter such a scene? He was paralyzed and his legs trembled into two noodles.

He could not speak, but his head moved and nodded.

"Take me to Wang Meng's Bank!"

“……”

Seeing that the servant didn't respond, Cheng Jin took advantage of the situation to lift up the spirit knife, pasted it on his face, and said grimly, "don't let me say it again!"

Seeing the sharp spirit knife with strange light, the servant's snot and tears flowed out, and the only hesitation disappeared. He nodded and trembled.

The silver storehouse of the city Lord's residence is located at the inner end of the residence. There is an officer and soldier guard outside. For ordinary officers and soldiers, it's nothing to say. Ao Qing took the lead, knocked the officers and soldiers out, cut off the door lock of the silver storehouse with a spirit knife, and pushed the door in.

After entering the silver pants, the three people looked closely. What they saw was neatly arranged boxes. Roughly speaking, there were more than 20.

Open a box at will. There are vases, calligraphy and paintings in it. It looks ancient.

Cheng Jinsan didn't know that these were antiques or their value. They were disappointed to see that they were just vases and other things. Then they checked other boxes. Like the box just opened, most of the other boxes are antiques, cloth, brocade and so on. As for gold, silver and jewelry, Mao didn't see one.

"Shit!" Cheng Jin cursed in a low voice, grabbed the frightened servant and asked, "are you sure there's only one silver vault?"

The servant nodded stupidly and replied, "yes... Yes! Only... This is the only bank!"

"What about the fucking money? Where did Wang Meng get all the money?" Cheng Jin is close to his servant and shows a faint light. The black mask made of spirit armor is more ferocious.

The servant was almost going to pee his pants. He shook his head and said, "Sir, I don't know. I really don't know..."

Cheng Jin nodded, sneered and said, "I don't think you'll move if you don't fight!" As he spoke, he pulled a piece of cloth from the servant, rolled it twice, and forced it into his mouth. Then, his fingers stretched forward, and the long nails formed by the spirit armor stabbed the servant's eyes.

He has to buckle the servant's eyes.

At this time, Aoqing suddenly said, "Captain, there is a secret room here!"

oh Cheng Jin was in great spirits when he heard the speech. At the same time, he stopped his fingers and turned his head to look back.

Aoqing stood in front of the wall in the middle of the bank and tapped gently. There was a hollow sound inside. She looked around for the switch in the secret room, but she couldn't find where it was.

Cheng Jin pushes the servant to Jiaxi, then walks to Aoqing's side, pulls her away, and then stabs the wall with the spirit knife in his hand. If the wall is really dead, his spirit knife can't stab deeply, but he stabbed it with a knife, and it hasn't exerted much force, and the whole blade has disappeared into it.

There is something strange in it! Cheng Jin didn't draw a knife, but cut it horizontally, and then cut it vertically. In the blink of an eye, he cut a half meter long square on the wall. Then he pulled out the spirit knife and kicked the wall with his legs. With a dull sound, the wall he cut into squares fell off to the inside, and there were many square holes in the wall.

Cheng Jin smiled at Aoqing and said, "it's so easy!" Between his words, he had slipped into the room.

The secret room inside the wall is not big, but there are surprisingly many silver coins stacked inside. The glittering silver ingots are more than half a person high, even if it is conservatively estimated that there must be as much as 1.8 million taels.

It is inconceivable that Wang Meng could get so much money in such a poor Pingyuan county and such a desolate Hengcheng.

Looking at the white silver, Cheng Jin was silly, Aoqing and Jiaxi were silly, and the servant was also silly. Even the servant didn't know that there was a secret room in the silver warehouse, and there was such a huge amount of silver in the secret room.

I don't know how long later, Cheng Jin came back to his mind first. He picked up a silver ingot and weighed it in his palm. He sneered and said, "what a Hengcheng master and a greedy dog official!" With these words, he said to Aoqing, "Xiaoqing, go back to the house to find adults and explain the situation here!"

Before Ao Qing answered, he said to Jiaxi, "Jiaxi, stay here and don't let anyone in. If someone breaks in, kill first and then play!"

"Captain, what about you?" Aoqing and Jiaxi asked in unison.

"Me?" Cheng Jin waved the Lingdao in his hand and said, "I'll find the dog official Wang Meng!"

Finding so much money from the money bank of the city Lord's residence is conclusive. Cheng Jin doesn't hide his trace. He drags the servant to the bedroom where the city Lord Wang Meng is staying.

On the way, the patrolling bodyguards and servants saw Cheng Jin dressed in spirit armor. They were all startled and surrounded one after another.

Cheng Jin scattered his spirit armor, took out his military card from his arms and shouted, "I'm the head of the army under the commander of the county guard. Come here to investigate. I see who dares to stop me?" Now no one knows the title of the hidden arrow. In order to avoid trouble, Cheng Jin can only claim to be the head of Tang Yin's army, and Tang Yin also said that his rank is the same as that of the Corps.

The commander of the county guard? The bodyguards and servants of the city Lord's residence looked at each other and didn't know whether to stop him for a moment.
