Martial Arts Domination: Start with the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique-Chapter 40 - The King and Gao, Sharing the World!

And now, at last, a ray of dawn was finally shining upon him!

As long as he refined this inner strength technique, he could strengthen his inner body and elevate his realm at the fastest speed!

At the same time, he could also enhance the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique without any restraint!

Boost his own power!

Qin Zheng suppressed the excitement in his heart, took the inner strength manual out of the jade box, and began to browse through it.

Bang!

Bang!

However, before he had finished looking at it, a knocking sound suddenly came from one side of the secret chamber.

This noise immediately made Qin Zheng’s mind tense up.

He put the inner strength manual into his chest and then listened carefully to the direction of the knocking sound.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Clang clang!

After holding his breath and waiting a few moments, the knocking sound resonated again, accompanied by the sound of chains.

This time, Qin Zheng identified the precise location of the sound.

He immediately went to the wall from which the sound emanated.

It seemed there was someone behind this wall.

Considering the long-overdue senior monk Chongming, Qin Zheng immediately speculated.

He felt around the wall for a while and, after a few moments, suddenly found a special stone.

After turning it, the wall slowly opened like a door.

A silent passageway also came into view.

Bang!

Bang!

The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.

Bang!

Clang clang~

The sounds of impacts and the clashing of chains became even clearer.

Qin Zheng’s eyes narrowed slightly as he gripped the Ghost Head Greatsword tightly and stepped into the passageway.

This passage was about ten meters long; Qin Zheng quickly walked through it and arrived on the other side.

This place too was a quiet secret chamber.

However, the person who appeared here was beyond Qin Zheng’s expectations.

The person locked up here was not the senior monk Chongming, as Qin Zheng had anticipated, but Inspector Xu Sanwei from the government office!

At this moment, his entire body was bound by iron chains, even his mouth was covered, and he could only bump his head to make noise.

“Inspector Xu?”

Qin Zheng stepped forward and removed the gag from his mouth.

“Damn Zhang Xiuwen!

I must kill him!!”

Once he could speak, Inspector Xu immediately burst into cursing, his chest heaving with rage.

Qin Zheng didn’t speak but felt a bit puzzled in his heart.

This Inspector Xu was a man of County Magistrate Lord Gao Wusheng, and the bandit leader Zhang Xiuwen was also one of Gao Wusheng’s men.

Both belonging to the same camp, why then was Xu Weisan imprisoned here?

If it had been Ji Changyin who was imprisoned here, Qin Zheng could still have understood.

After Xu Weisan’s anger had dissipated, his entire Essence Qi Spirit also plummeted to its lowest, his face pale and bloodless, a miserable white.

He turned his head and looked at Qin Zheng, his gaze filled with surprise, as if he was shocked that Qin Zheng would appear here.

However, it seemed he thought of something, and his eyebrows furrowed.

He then asked, “Did you kill Zhang Xiuwen?”

This was Zhang Xiuwen’s forbidden place, and apart from himself, no second person could come here.

Qin Zheng did not respond but instead looked around the dark surroundings and asked, “Where is Colonel Ji?”

As soon as he said this, Xu Weisan fell silent for a moment, then said, “Dead.”

This made Qin Zheng’s mind shake instantly, and he quickly turned to look at Xu Weisan.

Ji Changyin was the Garrison Commander appointed by the imperial court, responsible for overseeing the executions in Black Goose City.

Now that he had died here, this was no small matter!

His status was not something that ordinary constables and soldiers could compare with!

With Ji Changyin dead, the imperial court would certainly send people to investigate this matter!

If Gao Wusheng dared to do this, could he handle the situation?

It seemed that Xu Weisan understood what Qin Zheng was thinking.

He chuckled and said, “Based on what I know about Zhang Xiuwen, he must have told you some things.”

“Forget it, the background of the County Magistrate Gao is far more terrifying than you think.”

“You’re quite a talent, so skilled in martial arts, yet content to hide in this Black Goose City as a mere executioner.”

“Come and help me cut these chains off; it’s too uncomfortable being locked up.”

Qin Zheng remained motionless upon hearing these words.

Xu Weisan gave a bitter smile and then said, “Don’t worry, although I work for Gao Wusheng, I don’t listen to him on everything.”

“Otherwise, I wouldn’t be locked up here; suppose this is a warning for me.”

“Help me cut these chains, and whatever you want to know, as long as I’m aware, I’ll tell you.”

Only then did Qin Zheng step forward and swung his sword to cut off the chains on Xu Weisan.

Once freed from his bindings, he seemed to lose support and instantly collapsed onto the ground, gasping for air in huge breaths.

After a few moments of heavy breathing, Xu Weisan then struggled to sit up again.

“You’ve killed Zhang Xiuwen, so Gao Wusheng is bound to notice; his people should be here in some time,” Xu Weisan said, as a kind of reminder to Qin Zheng, and then continued, “So whatever you want to ask, just ask.”

“But I can tell you, I haven’t taken Gao Wusheng’s Brain-Eating Pill, so I don’t know much; most of it is my own speculation.”

Qin Zheng nodded and then asked, “Why would Gao Wusheng have the bandits descend from the mountains to attack the city?”

The gold and silver treasures he saw in Zhang Xiuwen’s secret chamber were enough to show how much wealth these bandits had looted for him.

But having bandits come down to attack the city didn’t seem to have any benefit for him.

Upon hearing this, Xu Weisan’s gaze flickered slightly, before saying, “He certainly has his reasons; I should be able to guess one of them, and that’s consumption!”

“By having bandits attack the city, he can take this opportunity to wear down the strength of the troops outside the city and get rid of disobedient people in the government office.”

“If I’m not wrong, he must have convened the various powers and martial arts experts within Black Goose City, making promises to have them leave the city to dispose of the bandits.”

“So, he could also use the bandits to weaken the power of the various forces within Black Goose City.”

“Black Goose City is already his; now, by weakening everyone, whether obedient or not, it is directly under his sole word.”

“Moreover, by eradicating so many bandits, he could also gain some reputation with the imperial court.”

“With this single move, he really becomes the true big winner!”

Such a scheme, such a strategy!

Qin Zheng’s eyes narrowed slightly as he suppressed the shock in his heart.

He then continued to ask, “You said his background is terrifying; who exactly is behind him?”

Upon hearing this, Xu Weisan pondered for a moment before saying, “Do you know, there’s a saying among the people in Great Jin.”

“Wang and Gao, together they rule the world!”
