Chapter 308 Infiltration

Chapter 308 Infiltration
This sudden attack scared the people around, and they all screamed and dodged. Zhou Chen deliberately slowed down by one step, and at the same time, several small pieces of charcoal fell on his clothes.

The gangster dressed as a roasted sweet potato seller ran away immediately after seeing this. The gangsters who had been following him not far behind also smiled when they saw this, and then they stopped following Zhou Chen and turned around and left.

Zhou Chen pretended to scream, and while stepping back, he quickly patted off the charcoal fire with his trembling hands. Although his clothes were slightly caught on fire, he extinguished it in time.

When he looked up again, the young man selling sweet potatoes had disappeared into the crowd. Some people in the crowd were whispering and talking, the voices were not loud but reached Zhou Chen's ears.

"I know the young Si just now. He should be a member of the Zhentian Gang in the city."

"Yeah".

"Oh, it looks like he's going to be in trouble."

Zhou Chen didn't know much about the Zhentian Gang. Although he knew there must be gangs in this city, he hadn't investigated them in detail.

Hearing the discussions of the people around him, Zhou Chen turned around and asked, "I wonder where this Zhentian Gang came from?"
However, as soon as he said this, no one answered his question. They all took a few steps back and said at the same time, "I don't know about that. You should ask someone else."

It can be seen that they are not unaware of it, but simply do not want to tell him. Zhou Chen was not angry. Since they are unwilling to say it, then forget it.

Pretending nothing had happened, he walked towards home. Twenty minutes later, Zhou Chen returned home. The timing was just right. Leng Yiyao's meal was ready as soon as Zhou Chen got home. As soon as she brought out the meal, she saw Zhou Chen.

"Brother Chen, what's wrong with your clothes?"
Zhou Chen smiled and took off the outer clothes with several holes burned in them and threw it aside, saying, "It's nothing, just a small matter."

Under Leng Yiyao's repeated questioning, Zhou Chen told her what had happened. Leng Yiyao had naturally noticed the abnormalities during this period, but there was no need for them to bother with those people now.

Zhou Chen took a bite of meat and said, "After today's testing, they should take action against us soon. If it's fast, they may do it tonight."

"Then how should we deal with it, should we kill him directly or..."
Zhou Chen shook his head and said, "Now that we have settled here, we should avoid trouble if possible. Let's see what they do first."

After finishing their meal, the two drank some tea. After dark, they returned to their room early to rest. During this period, they were like normal people. They did not practice at night, but went to bed and rested like normal people after dark.

Although Zhou Chen had fallen asleep early, the lights on the other side were bright.

At this time, inside a mansion, several people who had quietly followed Zhou Chen during the day were eating and drinking in the room.

"Brothers, come and eat, eat, and when you're full, get ready for action."

"Third brother, I always feel that guy is not simple. Do you want to call the eldest brother and the second brother?"
"No need. There's no need to trouble you two brothers. They are just two ordinary people who don't know any martial arts. Besides, if we call them over, we'll have to give them some of the silver. Can't we just keep the silver and divide it among ourselves?"
Outsiders only know that the Zhentian Gang is a gangster gang in Yuxi City, but they don’t know that they are not very united internally. The three bosses usually call each other brothers, but their relationship in private is not very good.

It was late at night and the common people had already fallen asleep. The patrolling officers and soldiers in the city had also found a place to take a nap. At this time, a group of ten people were sneaking around the streets.

Soon, they came to the wall of Zhou Chen's courtyard. After looking around and confirming that there was no one there, they worked together to help one person climb over the wall first.

The moment after landing, Zhou Chen and the other person who were sleeping soundly in the room noticed something strange and a smile appeared on their lips. However, they did not rush out. Instead, they got up and went to the window, looking towards the yard through the gap.

I found someone sneaking up to the front door and quietly opening it, and then quietly walked in the moment the door opened. "Huh, he's really here."

After they came in, they went straight to the room. The two did not lock the door when they went to sleep. They just pushed the door of the living room open lightly.

The door creaked the moment it opened. The guy who pushed the door was startled and took two steps back before bumping into his companion behind him.

"Why are you panicking, there are so many of us, do you think we can be afraid of them?"

As he said that, he strode in and lit the tinder. The moment the tinder was lit, the whole living room was illuminated by fire.

The leading guy took a look and then led his men towards the room of Zhou Chen and the others. When he arrived at the door, he retreated with a palm without caring whether the door was locked or not.

He also had some skills, so he could push the lock open even if it was locked.

The moment the door was opened, firelight shone in, and the younger brother behind him drew out his axe and rushed in.

After entering, they started hacking at the bed without saying a word. With a series of crackling sounds, cotton wool flew all over the room. Three minutes passed before they stopped. They looked down and saw that the bedding on the bed was in a mess.

But that was all. They then realized that apart from the bedding, there was no trace of Zhou Chen and his wife on the bed.

"Well, what's going on? Where are the people?"
The leading thug thought for a while and said, "What's going on? Are the two of them not at home today? Damn, I should find someone to monitor them."

"Third brother, what should we do now?"
"What should we do? It's better if they are not here. Let's split up and look for where they hide their silver."

After saying this, everyone immediately came to their senses and said, "Yes, we are here to make money, not to kill people." After saying this, everyone dispersed.

Everyone searched the room for ten minutes and asked, "How is it?"
"Third brother, this house is too clean. Apart from some rice, flour and vegetables, there is not a penny left."

The leading thug frowned and said, "Well, how is this possible? They spend money like water on a daily basis, how could they not have a penny? Have you looked carefully?"
"Third brother, we've searched this place inside and out, but found nothing."

At this time, a voice came over, "Found it, found it."

Hearing this, everyone looked towards him excitedly, and saw that guy carrying the leg of an unknown animal and walking towards them excitedly.

Seeing this, everyone's faces suddenly showed black lines. The leader, the third brother, stepped forward and slapped him in the face, "Don't tell me you only found such a leg?"
The guy covered his hot face with one hand and said, "Yes, Third Brother." As soon as he finished speaking, he slapped him in the face twice, "You useless piece of shit, have you never eaten meat?"

"I'm here to ask for money, not to beg for food," he said and kicked him again. The guy was kicked away and the leg of some unknown animal fell to the ground.

"Find them all for me, even if I have to dig three feet into the ground."
