Chapter 273 If you don't agree, come and hit me
This morning he had already informed Zhen Nantian of Wu'an County about what happened here. It was precisely because he wanted to explain the situation here to Zhen Nantian in detail that he asked Xuanwu to go to the prison to understand the situation, otherwise he would not have let Xuanwu go.
"By the way, sir, what do people in Wu'an County say?"
"Hey, Zhen Nantian told us to send Zhou Chen back to Wu'an County first, and he will investigate the matter thoroughly."
Xuanwu said dissatisfiedly, "What a bullshit investigation. Zhou Chen is his man. He must want to cover up for that guy."
Qinglong thought for a while and said, "You go and do your work first." After Xuanwu left, Qinglong got up and went to the prison.
When I arrived at the prison, I saw Zhou Chen studying the Thunder Chisel in his hand, and from time to time, a trace of thunder emanated from the Thunder Chisel.
Zhou Chen didn't look up, and asked calmly, "Lord Qinglong, you are here to ask me for this Thunder God Chisel, right?"
Zhou Chen bowed and said, "This item is the treasure of my Demon Suppression Bureau. I hope Brother Zhou can return it to me."
"It's okay to return it to you. Just give me the Yin-Yang Mirror and I will return it to you."
Qinglong asked in confusion, "What Yin-Yang Mirror?"
"Are you pretending to be stupid with me? Your Commander Han borrowed this thing from me before, and he kept it with me. Now that the thing has not been returned to me, I naturally cannot return this Thunder Chisel to you."
At some point Baihu came to Qinglong's side, and after hearing what Zhou Chen said, Baihu said, "Brother Zhou, you can't just say whatever you say. In other words, do you have any evidence that Lord Han took the Yin-Yang Mirror from you?"
He really had no evidence because there was no third person around who saw the two of them swapping.
Zhou Chen spread out his hands and then took back the Thunder Chisel, "I really don't have this, but what I said is true, you can believe it or not."
After hearing his words, Baihu was very angry, but was stopped by Qinglong with a look, "I have checked Lord Han's storage ring before, and did not find the Yin-Yang Mirror in it. Moreover, when I checked, I found that the restriction on the storage ring had been broken by someone."
Without waiting for him to ask, Zhou Chen nodded and admitted, "Yes, I broke it. He was already dead when I found him, so I broke his restriction privately, but I didn't find the whereabouts of the Yin-Yang Mirror."
Baihu laughed and said, "You said you didn't find it, so you didn't find it. I also said you took it away. Do you dare to let us check your storage ring?"
Qinglong did not stop Baihu from saying this. If the two of them had really exchanged treasures at the beginning, and the Yin-Yang Mirror was not found in Han You's storage ring now, then what Baihu said was really possible.
The temperature in the cell dropped suddenly in an instant, and everything around was quickly covered with a layer of frost. Qinglong and the other man frowned and quickly took a few steps back.
Looking at Zhou Chen's cold eyes, Qinglong was very angry but did not show it. The reason was very simple, because his strength was at the peak of the fifth level. Although he was only one step away from entering the fourth level, he had no confidence at all against Zhou Chen.
Qinglong looked at Zhou Chen, snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves and left the prison.
After coming out, Baihu asked, "What should we do now, sir?"
Qinglong thought for a while and said, "First find Zhen Nantian and ask him to come forward. If that doesn't work, report to the higher-ups. Even if he has extraordinary abilities, he can't take away the treasure of my Demon Suppression Division for no reason."
Two hours later, it was finally time for dinner, but he didn't have much hope for it. There was no doubt that prison food was not good.
Sure enough, after he saw what was inside, he immediately felt nauseous and kicked the bowl away. Seeing this, the servant in charge of serving food did not dare to say a word. He silently picked up the bowl and left.
This so-called prison could not hold him at all. Although the cells here were built with special materials, the upper limit was only the peak fourth grade. It was completely useless for Zhou Chen who had already mastered the power of space. He could leave at any time as long as he wanted.
At this time, the jade pendant on his waist lit up, and a string of text appeared on the wall in front of him. It was sent by Zhen Nantian, and the content was about him exchanging treasures with Han You. And told him that since the things have been taken back, then return the Thunder God Chisel to Huangshan County. Although the things are good, they belong to Huangshan County.
The Demon Suppression Offices in various places within Daxia were all granted treasures by His Majesty when they were established. The treasure in Wu'an County was the Yin-Yang Mirror, and the treasure in Huangshan County was the Thunder God Chisel. Other things were fine, except for the Thunder God Chisel. But if that thing was taken, when they reported it, not only he himself would be implicated, but Zhen Nantian as well.
Helplessly, Zhou Chen had to tell Zhen Nantian the truth. After a long time, he finally got Zhen Nantian's response. He thought he would scold him, but Zhen Nantian just said lightly, "Return the things to Huangshan County first. As for the Yin-Yang Mirror, he has one month to get it back."
Although he was unwilling, since Zhen Nantian had spoken, Zhou Chen did not say anything and immediately tore through the void and left the cell. Qinglong was handling official business in the room.
Looking at the information on the secret letter, Qinglong couldn't help but rub his head. The moment he raised his head, he found that the space in front of him was twisted abnormally.
Although he had not reached that level, he knew that a strong man was tearing through the void and coming, so he immediately drew out the long sword hanging behind him.
The space twisted for only a few seconds and then instantly cracked. Seeing this, Qinglong's heart skipped a beat, and then he saw Zhou Chen's figure walking out from inside.
"Haha, don't get excited, sir. It's me."
Seeing that it was Zhou Chen, Qinglong felt relieved, but he did not put down the knife in his hand. If he remembered correctly, Zhou Chen should be in the prison at this moment, not here.
"Brother Zhou, why are you here?"
Zhou Chen flipped his right hand, and the Thunder Chisel appeared directly in his hand, and then he threw it directly towards Qinglong.
After taking the Leigong Chisel, Qinglong looked at him blankly and said, "Brother Zhou, have you thought it through?"
"Don't get me wrong, this is what Lord Zhen meant. I didn't kill Lord Han. And although I broke into Lord Han's storage ring, I did not find the Yin-Yang Mirror."
After Qinglong put away the Thunder Chisel, he said, "I will naturally get to the bottom of this matter. Now, Brother Zhou, please go back and take it with you."
This time Zhou Chen did not give him face, "No, I have to get the Yin-Yang Mirror back as soon as possible. As for going back, don't even think about it. I will not go back. If you are not satisfied, you can do it."
Qinglong clenched his hands tightly. Although he was very unwilling in his heart, he was really no match for Zhou Chen. He had no choice but to suppress the urge to attack.
Zhou Chen returned to his room again. Now there was no clue about the Yin-Yang Mirror, and he didn't know where to look for it. Although he was in charge of the Yin-Yang Mirror, it did not belong to him, and he could not find the Yin-Yang Mirror through sensing.
After closing his eyes and thinking for a while, Zhou Chen stood up and the space in front of him suddenly cracked. He took a light step and stepped directly into the space crack.
In a blink of an eye, they were a hundred miles outside the city. Zhou Chen returned to the place where Han You was killed. He turned on his mental exploration and found that there were no signs of a fight here.
"Strange." Half an hour later, Zhou Chen returned to the city again. He searched for half an hour but found nothing. "Oh, it seems I can't find it anymore."
