Chapter 176: Scheming

Gu Changzheng's face changed, and he asked in a deep voice: "What's wrong?"

Ding Eight hesitated and answered stammeringly: "Officer, I just remembered one thing. Ding Wei must know I'm lying to him! Ding Five, Ding Five hates reading books the most! He doesn't know many characters at all!"

Gu Changzheng couldn't help but take a deep breath after hearing this. A moment of negligence had actually revealed such a big flaw.

He hurriedly asked: "Are there any other Divine Guards in the base besides you?" He understood that now was not the time for regret. The primary task was to understand the strength of the other party.

Ding Eight was clearly wavering. Gu Changzheng said sternly: "I tell you, Jiao Jiao Yingjun, don't imagine that Ding Wei will still trust you! Once he suspects you, he won't believe you anymore! Cooperating with the police is your only way out!"

This remark finally made Ding Eight make up his mind. He understood Ding Wei's character. Once he suspected, the result would only be killing by mistake rather than leaving a hidden danger. He gritted his teeth, looked at Gu Changzheng resolutely, and said: "Alright, Officer, I'll leave my life to you! Let me go, let's fight together!"

Gu Changzheng was caught off guard by Ding Eight's move, and secretly thought in his heart that this kid wasn't an actor before? Otherwise, why so many plays? He urged impatiently: "Hurry up, don't waste time! Ding Wei must be rushing here!" Ding Eight was a bit suspicious of Gu Changzheng's words, but didn't dare to refute, so he had to nod awkwardly.

In zone three, in a conference room, a scarred, burly man in his thirties and a shifty-eyed bald man were nervously staring at a drawing in front of them.

If Old Yin were here, he would definitely be shocked—wasn't that bald man Zeng Ceng Xiaohui who slipped from his hands?

The two were surrounded by more than a dozen men in black, all wearing the same "Ding" character embroidered on their chests, the difference being that some "Ding" characters were silver, while others were red.

At this time, a man in black with a silver "Ding" character embroidered on his chest said: "Boss, let's hurry up and kill them! I don't know where Little Six is..." Before he finished speaking, the scarred man interrupted him irritably: "Alright! Isn't Old Five also missing? I and the Hai group are studying tactics."

It turned out that the man in black who spoke was Ding Six's own brother. Their group's code name was determined by the order of joining the Divine Sect. The group leader Ding Wei had a violent and cold personality, and the code names he gave to his group members were also extremely simple.

The bald Zeng Ceng Xiaohui beside him was the leader of the Hai group, Ding Hai. A few days ago, Zeng Ceng Xiaohui wanted to knock down a few police officers to show off in the cult, but unexpectedly, he lost his wife and broke his army, losing six group members.

After finally escaping from Old Yin's hands, he shrank into the base with the remaining few people and didn't dare to go out easily. Ding Wei looked rough and had a violent temper, but he was actually cautious. He knew that Ding Hai had some means, but he had been beaten to pieces by the police and almost folded himself in.

And now, the other party could find their secret base, it seemed that the police had already mastered the bottom line of the Divine Sect. (Zeng Ceng Xiaohui's subordinates sent out were wiped out by Old Yin. After he escaped back, he claimed to be surrounded by hundreds of police officers and finally escaped with great difficulty...) Ding Wei secretly thought, not knowing if there was a traitor inside who leaked the information to the police.

Under such circumstances, he believed that the number of police officers entering the base must be quite large, and they were probably waiting for them to come to their door to send their heads in zone one!

So after hearing the problem from Ding Eight, he didn't immediately go to check, but first called the Hai group, who was also in the base, to discuss the action plan.

The two seemed to have been staring at the drawing, but in fact, each had their own little thoughts. At this time, only a cold voice said: "Humph! A bunch of trash! So many people are still afraid of a few police officers? If they were attacking with a large force, wouldn't they have fought here long ago, and still allow you to grind here?" Ding Wei was furious when he heard the voice! He turned his head to look back and was about to explode, but saw a gloomy young man with cold eyes appearing at the door. Seeing that the mocking words came from this person, a look of resentment and fear flashed in Ding Wei's eyes. He looked pale, as if he was suffocated by the anger that hadn't been vented. The bald Ding Hai on the side stood up with a smile and said: "Oh! Xiang Wei is here! Old Wei, we have strong reinforcements!"

Saying this, he gave Ding Wei a wink, and the latter understood, stood up with a trace of reluctance, and said coldly: "I wondered who had such a big tone! So it's Special Guard Xiang!"

Xiang Feng didn't even look at Ding Wei, just continued with his icy voice: "Whether the tone is big or not depends on the ability! If you don't have the ability, just stay honestly and don't come out to show off!"

Ding Wei was refuted by him like this, and he couldn't hold his face. He was about to "greet" Xiang Feng's female relatives, but was stopped by Ding Hai. Only then did he hear Ding Hai say: "Haha, Xiang Wei just killed a big police figure recently. It is said that he is the veteran criminal investigator known as the number one detective in Nanjiang! This is the first person in the history of our Divine Sect! I heard that the Divine Lord intends to confer Xiang Wei the title of the number one master of the Divine Sect! Xiang Wei will be the head of the four Special Guards in the future! Congratulations!"

Xiang Feng sneaked into this secret base after killing Lu Lu Haoxuan in Mangdang Village. The news had long spread throughout the Divine Sect, and the Divine Lord took this opportunity to publicize the great supernatural power of the Divine Sect to bewitch people's hearts. But the Divine Lord conferring him the title of number one master and so on was just Ding Hai's casual lie to flatter Xiang Feng.

This Ding Hai was good at lying. He had a knack for lying: one part of the lie mixed with nine parts of truth, often making people who heard his lies believe them to be true.

As the saying goes, flattery never fails! Sure enough, Xiang Feng was so flattered by Ding Hai in public that he felt extremely satisfied, and his cold face also showed pride.

But then Ding Hai changed the subject: "However! This secret base of our Divine Sect was actually found by the police, and I don't know who leaked the news."

Only to see Xiang Feng's face change drastically! He shouted: "What did you say!"

This Ding Hai is skilled at lying. He has a trick to his lying: he mixes one part lie into nine parts truth, which often makes those who hear his lies believe them to be true.

As the saying goes, flattery will get you everywhere! Sure enough, being praised like this in public by Ding Hai, Xiang Feng was extremely pleased, and a look of triumph appeared on his cold, gloomy face.

But then Ding Hai's tone shifted: "However! Our Divine Sect's base, which is so secret, was actually found by the police. I wonder who leaked the news."

Xiang Feng's expression changed abruptly! He barked, "What did you say!"
