184　　Only Lu Rong looked indifferent.

　　Anyway, no matter who gets the White Tiger Hall in the future, it will never fall into his hands, so he is very calm.

　　At this time, Peng Shizhong took Chen Jie into the forest, only to see dozens of fallen trees in the forest. Various traces of battle remained on the trees, such as traces of ice and traces of burning fire.

　　There are also traces of being broken by force.

　　This is the strength of a person who has mastered the Hua Jin realm.

　　When a warrior reaches the stage of Hua Jin, he can call upon the internal force in his body, thereby producing changes in properties and forming various colors of Gang Qi.

　　What is internal force and what is qi?

　　The force that is stored but not released is called internal force, and the force that is released outside the body is called Gangqi.

　　To put it bluntly, this is actually the same thing, and there is no distinction between high and low.

　　It is just a power that the human body can call upon.

　　Peng Shizhong took Chen Jie to look around the forest and then asked, "How is it? What do you think?"

　　Chen Jie was stunned and said, "The old beggar must have been beaten to death by a group of people. One of them was good at ice skills, and the other was good at fire skills."

　　"Well, do you know who these two are?"

　　Chen Jie thought for a moment and said, "My foster father once said that our Fishing Gang's leader Nan Batian's unique skill is the "Mysterious Ice Power", an ice-based skill, so I guess the one who made the move is probably the leader."

　　"Yeah, that's good, what about the other one?"

　　Chen Jie thought for a moment and said, "The other one, I think it should be Old Monster Liu."

　　"Oh, why is it him and not someone else?"

　　Chen Jie said: "Among the Thirteen Guardians, I have seen these few, but not many of them know fire-attributed skills. As for the ones I haven't seen, I don't know what kind of skills they know."

　　"But it doesn't matter, because the process can be reversed from the results."

　　"Oh, how to derive it?"

　　Peng Shizhong wanted to test Chen Jie, and Chen Jie said, "First of all, they ambushed the old beggar, so they must have something to ask for. Is it to annex the Beggars' Sect? Possibly, but it is more likely to be for the unique martial arts in the hands of the old beggar!"

　　"Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms."

　　Peng Shizhong revealed the name of the unique martial arts book.

　　"That's right, it's the Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms. We martial artists all know the importance of a good secret manual, not to mention a world-famous skill like the Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms. I think no one would not be envious, even our mysterious Darughachi!"

　　"Well, you mean that Darughachi was also involved in the ambush on the old beggar?"

　　Peng Shizhong looked at Chen Jie.

　　Chen Jie said, "Well, I wonder if godfather has noticed the horse hooves outside the woods?"

　　Peng Shizhong frowned. He really didn't pay much attention to this because he was just looking at the corpse at that time.

　　Chen Jie said: "There are a lot of horse hoof prints, and they are very regular, even the depth is almost the same. At first glance, they are standard horse hoof prints. Only the military would have such prints."

　　"Black Knight!"

　　Peng Shizhong nodded, and Chen explained: "Yes, it is the Black Cavalry. Since the Black Cavalry is involved, it means that Qimuge must be present, and Qimuge represents the Darughachi Mansion to the outside world!"

　　"So I have inferred that Darughachi participated in this operation, or even organized it."

　　Peng Shizhong nodded slightly, and then said: "Even if Daruhachi was involved, how can you determine that the other person is Weird Liu?"

　　Chen Jie said: "Nan Batian is a fierce tiger. The only ones who can hunt with the tiger are subordinates or another fierce tiger."

　　"Why?"

　　Peng Shizhong asked.

　　Chen Jie said: "Because if it is not a tiger of the same level as Nan Batian, then after the hunt, he will not be able to get the prey at all."

　　"That is the book of Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms."

　　"Foster father, if you were Nan Batian, and the person you teamed up with was another Thirteen Guardians who was weaker than you, and he got the secret book like Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms, would you give it to him?"

　　Peng Shizhong said: "No, the fewer people who know the secret book, the better. How could I cultivate a potential threat to myself?"

　　Chen Jie said: "So, only Old Monster Liu is sure to get the secret book from Nan Batian, and only then can we have the basis for cooperation."

　　"So I guess it's most likely Old Monster Liu. Of course, this is all under normal circumstances. It is not ruled out that some people have problems with their brains and do things that are clearly not in their interests."

　　Peng Shizhong nodded when he heard this.

　　Very satisfied with Chen Jie's wisdom.

　　Being able to deduce the general idea of ​​a matter from the details is a very powerful ability, and my adopted son has it.

　　I have to say, I found a treasure.

　　Thinking of this, Peng Shizhong said: "Yes, this palm technique looks very similar to Liu Laoguai's "Fire Skill"

　　"Fire Power?"

　　Chen Jie looked at Peng Shizhong, and Peng Shizhong said, "That's right. 'Fiery Power' and 'Mysterious Ice Power' are two skills above the Hua Jin level. They were accidentally obtained by the former leaders of the Fishing Gang and the Cao Gang, and then passed down. They have become the current magical skills of the two gangs."

　　Chen Jie said: "Did the former gang leader get it accidentally?"

　　"Well, I don't know the details. I heard that it seems that you are related to the Mianshui walking dragon."

　　"Walking dragon?"

　　"Yes, but there hasn't been a dragon in the Mian River for nearly sixty years, so there's no way to verify whether it's true or not."

　　The two chatted as they walked out of the forest. Seeing the old beggar lying on the ground with no one to collect his body, Peng Shizhong couldn't help but feel sad and sighed, "He was once a famous figure. He shouldn't have been left exposed like this after his death. Jiusi, you stay here for a while and bury him."

　　Peng Shizhong walked towards the car and said, "By the way, Jiusi, come to Baihutang early tomorrow morning, and go back to have a good rest today."

　　"Yes, godfather."

　　Chen Jie responded, and Peng Shizhong got on the carriage, which quickly disappeared from the spot.

　　Zhou Chu stayed behind and called on the younger brothers of the fishing gang behind him to dig a pit and bury the body. While burying, Zhou Chu said, "What a pity. I don't know if the Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms was taken away by Nan Batian and his men."

　　Chen Jie looked at the dead body on the ground and said, "Probably not!"

　　"How do you know?"

　　Zhou Chu looked at Chen Jie, who pointed to the corpse and said, "Didn't you see it? He committed suicide. If he didn't want to take the secret into the coffin, would he have committed suicide?"

　　After hearing this, Zhou Chu understood instantly. Yes, if he was willing to hand it over, he might not die.

　　And in the end he actually chose to commit suicide, which shows that he would never hand over the things even if he died.

　　"What a pity, such a good thing was taken into the grave, no one can find it anymore. Sigh... that's the Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms!"

　　Zhou Chu felt extremely regretful.

　　Chen Jie remained calm upon hearing this, but he was thinking in his heart, no one can find it?

　　Some are absolute!

　　Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms, he was also very envious of it, although his secret was taken into the grave by the old beggar, but he had his own intelligence system. As long as he made good use of the intelligence system, especially the fifth piece of intelligence in the second-level intelligence system, it could be directional.

　　You can investigate this secret bit by bit.

　　This is my advantage!

　　Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms!

　　A gleam of light flashed in Chen Jie's eyes.

　　The pit was dug, and several fishermen threw the old beggar's body into the pit. In order to obtain more relevant information, Chen Jie actually picked up a shovel and personally covered the old beggar with two buckets of soil.

　　Finally, Chen Jie found a piece of wood and carved the words "Tomb of the Old Leader of the Beggars' Gang" on it!

　　Respecting the dead is an excellent virtue. What's more, he might even be able to obtain the "Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms" from him, which caused the entire Mian River to fall into turmoil.

　　After the burial, Zhou Chu stepped on the grave mound and then inserted the wooden stele on the grave.

　　After finishing everything, Chen Jie and his party rode into the city on horseback.

　　This time they entered the city from the South City, and then found that the two streets controlled by the old beggar in the South City were in complete chaos. They were all people from the Fishing Gang and the Cao Gang, who were searching for Beggar Gang disciples on each street.

　　At the same time, the two groups rushed to the headquarters of the Beggars' Sect and turned it upside down, even digging out the manure pit, trying to find the secret book hidden by the old beggar.

　　But nothing was found, it could not be found at all.

　　Chen Jie witnessed the whole process and suddenly felt a little scared. Could it be that this old beggar didn't have any secret skills at all?

　　If I don't have the secret book, all my work would be in vain.

　　However, Chen Jie did not complain about the fate. As the saying goes, if I get it, I am lucky, if I lose it, it is my fate.

　　Although the Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms is one of the most advanced martial arts in the world, it is not necessary for me to possess it. Of course, it would be best if I could obtain it.

　　However, it was obvious that Nan Batian and Old Monster Liu really wanted to obtain the secret book, and they began a frantic search in the two streets of South City.

　　Similarly, the king of this city, Darughaci, also wanted to obtain this secret book.

　　At this time, they were in the dungeon of Darughachi Mansion.

　　"Ah~"

　　The red-hot iron was pressed hard on the body of [Ivy Liu Feng], causing Liu Feng to scream in pain.

　　On the other side, two jailers used whips dipped in salt water to whip Iron Beggar Zhou Peng fiercely. After a while, Zhou Peng's whole body was covered in blood from the whip.

　　In addition, there were some elite disciples of the Beggars' Sect who were suffering various tortures at this time.

　　Qimugege drank tea leisurely and watched them carry out the execution.

　　They never show mercy to the Han people.

　　Qimuge took a sip of tea and said, "Is there anything I can tell you? Just tell me where the Eighteen Dragon Capturing Palms are, and you won't have to suffer this punishment. You can also get a reward from our master. Do you hear me?"

　　Qimuge stood up, walked up to Liu Feng and said, "You are seriously injured, tell me."

　　"I have no idea!"

　　Liu Feng said through gritted teeth.

　　After hearing this, Qimuge waved his hand, and a jailer brought a red-hot iron. Qimuge took it and shook it in front of Liu Feng's eyes and said, "Go ahead."

　　"I really don't know."

　　"Not honest!"
