C164 The Person Behind It



C164 The Person Behind It

Lo Tian gritted his teeth. Looking at Lei Jian who was tied up and taken away, he suddenly realized that a huge crisis was right in front of him.    

    

In fact, he had rushed back a long time ago. The warriors of Hsu family hadn't chased him very far. He had just landed in a remote place. After Lo Tian sped up and returned, he originally wanted to greet Lei Jian. When he came back, Lei Jian had complete control of the situation.    

    

But right after that, he saw Old Meng who was also rushing over. Lo Tian immediately recognized him!    

    

This Old Meng was also in the courtyard back then. He was definitely on the same path as the people from the Hsu family. His appearance further proved Lo Tian's conjecture.    

    

Governor Prefecture must have been involved in this matter. However, no one knew how deeply they were involved in this matter. Lo Tian was really afraid. If that governor was also with the Hsu family, then it would be really troublesome!    

    

The people behind didn't dare to think too much about it. They saw that Lei Jian had been taken away. Lo Tian clearly knew that with his current strength, even if he went up there, he would only be sending himself to his death. He had to leave as soon as possible.    

    

Silently retreating, Lo Tian stepped on the Ghost Steps and left like a black shadow. The moment he left, the old man with extraordinary means suddenly turned his head and looked in the direction where Lo Tian had left. After that, he knitted his brows tightly.    

    

"Old Meng!"    

    

The old man said and waved at the City Guards's elder, Old Meng.    

    

Old Meng quickly stepped forward. His respectful manner was completely different from when he was putting on a show.    

    

"Elder Kong, do you have any instructions?"    

    

Old Meng lowered his head and bowed, not daring to look Elder Kong in the eyes.    

    

Elder Kong pointed at where Lo Tian had just stood and said, "Someone saw what we did just now. If his cultivation base is high enough, he might have heard us. Quickly send someone to deal with it!"    

    

Old Meng wasn't flustered when he heard this. This kind of thing was just a small scene to him. If an ordinary person saw it, they only needed to send a few city guards to warn and threaten them. Only when some dangerous people saw it would it be a big problem.    

    

"Okay!"    

    

Old Meng waved his hand gently, signaling the city guards to go and take a look. Seeing Old Meng's actions, Elder Kong shook his head slightly and said, "Be more careful. Go and investigate a few more people. If I am not wrong, it is very likely that it is that Lo Tian."    

    

Old Meng's expression became much more solemn when he heard this. He replied, "Is that possible? Isn't he being pursued by the Hsu family's martial practitioners? "    

    

Elder Kong said in a stern voice, "Foolish. This kind of thing, even if it was one in a million chance, couldn't be done. Hurry up and investigate! "    

    

" Yes! "    

    

Old Meng did not dare to be neglectful this time. He led the team and quickly left. Old Kong put his hands behind his back and looked at the sky. For some reason, he suddenly had a bad premonition. It was as if he had missed something somewhere.    

    

He was a cautious man by nature, and his actions were watertight. He had been working in governor Prefecture for so many years. He had never made a big mistake. But this time, for some reason, he felt a little uneasy. This kind of feeling was very rare, and Old Kong could not help but think about it in detail again.    

    

After thinking about it, Old Kong did not notice anything wrong. Even if Lo Tian knew everything, it was just a mere Level 5 deacon. Could it be that there was a heaven defying ability?    

    

Old Kong shook his head and cast these unrealistic thoughts aside. He led the unconscious Lei Jian and walked back quickly.    

    

Another group of Hsu family servants appeared behind him. A moment later... The entire street was clean again. Apart from a few drops of blood that had been stained in the corner of the wall and the damaged ground, there was no sign of what had happened after the great battle. It was as if everything had returned to normal.    

    

Two hours later, in the governor Prefecture.    

    

In the quiet and elegant backyard, there was a verdant pavilion.    

    

The lake water was sparkling, and the carp swam about. It was situated in the pavilion at the center of the lake. The governor was feeding the fish. A female servant knelt beside them, looking somewhat terrified. "You're saying that Lin Er has been sick recently?"    

    

The governor said softly.    

    

The maid quickly replied, "Reporting to the old master, the medicine is not enough. The young master was still fine a few days ago. Ever since the medicine was broken, his body began to feel weak again. It's not that we can't take care of him properly, it's really that Young Master... "    

    

The governor could not take it anymore. He waved his hand and said," Alright, got it. I will settle the matter of the medicine. You guys just have to do your best to take care of it. However, if you delay and delay, it will cause Lin Er to fall sick. You know the consequences."    

    

As he spoke, the governor threw out a piece of fish food. In an instant, the fish food pierced through the head of a carp like a sharp sword. The golden carp carried fresh blood as it floated up, causing the female servant's face to immediately turn pale.    

    

The governor gently waved its hand, indicating that she could withdraw. The nearby guards of governor Mansion jumped into the lake and scooped up the dead carp.    

    

"We'll eat it at noon. Take it and stew it. Put more onions in!"    

    

Patting his hands, the governor sprinkled the remaining fish food and slowly walked back.    

    

Before he walked out of the pavilion, the governor suddenly saw Old Kong who had just walked in from the backyard not far away. Slightly frowning, the governor seemed to have thought of something and the smile on his face disappeared. He stroked his beard, then quickened his pace and walked towards Old Kong.    

    

"Master!"    

    

Old Kong bowed slightly and bowed to the governor.    

    

The governor stood beside him and said softly, "What's wrong? Did you run into trouble? Or did you run into difficulties?"    

    

Old Kong replied, "There is trouble, but it has been brought back."    

    

Governor's pupils contracted slightly as he asked," How far has he investigated? "    

    

Old Kong sighed and said, "The people and the stolen goods were caught, and Martial Tower played a trick on us. The Martial Tower was locked up, and the Hsu family was paralyzed. After that, he rushed over and did a proper investigation."    

    

The governor's facial expression became uglier and uglier. He said," Stupid. The Hsu family is just a bunch of idiots. "    

    

With a furious snort, the governor said, "Go and tell Xu Long to bring all the medicine here. This time, it will take a year's worth of medicine! Also, what about the crystal stones that he promised to cure my son? Ask him to quickly take it out. I will only give him one month's time. No, half a month's time. If he can't do it, I'll destroy the Hsu family first!"    

    

" Yes! "    

    

Old Kong bowed and said softly, "Deacon Lei is now in the dungeon."    

    

The governor did not waste any more time with Old Kong and left with vigorous steps. Old Kong stood where he was and let out a long sigh.    

    

He had been working in governor Prefecture for so many years, and it was rare for him to see the governor so angry. Normally, even if the mountain collapsed in front of him, the governor would remain calm and composed.    

    

But this time, the governor that was really angry would probably kill someone and offer sacrifices to the heavens. That Hsu family really did not know what was good for them. They did things without any scruples. Now that the matter had escalated to such an extent, he was afraid that there was no way to settle it peacefully. Everything would depend on the governor.    

    

He hoped that Lei Jian would be a little more tactful. Otherwise, he would suffer greatly!
