Chapter 365: Kill one if one comes

"It's all about money."

Xie Changling's eyes were disdainful; in the end, he was just a vulgar person.

"Without money, you can't move an inch, my Lord Xie. You are noble, but the food and things you use, which one wasn't bought with money? It's just that you don't need to earn money yourself; you only need to maintain your status, and the people around you will naturally earn a lot of money for you. But this is not the reason for you to maintain a noble posture. It can only be said that you scholars are very good at deceiving yourselves and others, being different inside and out."

"Nonsense, a pack of lies." Xie Changling scolded sternly, "It's all distorted logic. No wonder the world says that Heavenly Prison guards are greedy, one knife for one, and none of them are wronged."

"Eh, I can also use this sentence on Lord Xie; officials in the officialdom, one knife for one, definitely none are wronged."

"Lawless!" Xie Changling pulled a long face.

"Forget it, forget it, I'm too lazy to argue with you. Are you giving money or not? Give money, and I will arrange for you to blow the wind. If you don't give money, there won't be any. The Heavenly Prison didn't have the rule of wind-blowing before; wanting to bask in the sun was a luxury. Only I would consider the needs of you imprisoned officials and sincerely think for you. Although the price is a bit expensive, it's worth it! You must know that convincing the higher-ups to agree to this plan is both time-consuming and money-consuming. Officials would rather have one less thing than do one more thing. Without enough benefits, don't even think about stamping and using the seal on official documents. Without stamped official documents, it's comparable to toilet paper, worthless."

"It's fortunate you didn't enter the officialdom. If distorted logic like yours entered the officialdom, this official is worried that everyone else would be polluted by you."

Chen Guanlou laughed when he heard this, "This is well said, as if everyone in the officialdom is a white lotus, pure and flawless, innocent and naive."

As he spoke, he became happy again, "Lord Xie, if you change your mind, just tell the prison guard, and I guarantee that the service will be in place in every aspect."

He turned and left.

Alas!

Not being able to control his mouth and occasionally poking at these imprisoned officials might offend people unintentionally. No wonder he encountered an assassin's assassination.

It's just that, seeing that he was still alive and living well, what would the mastermind's mood be?

Being able to hire a Fourth-Rank warrior to assassinate, the identity must be unusual. Fourth-Rank warriors are not Chinese cabbage; the gang doesn't have such resources. Either family cultivation, sect cultivation, or a professional organization.

He just wanted to see if the mastermind saw that he was still alive, would he continue to send people to assassinate him? Fourth-Rank warrior is not enough, then send a Fifth-Rank warrior.

If the mastermind could really send a Fifth-Rank warrior, his identity and backing would be narrowed down to a range. Among the many imprisoned officials in the Jia-sized prison, the imprisoned officials who had the ability to dispatch Fifth-Rank warriors as assassins could be circled in a circle.

Back to the office, drank half a bowl of tea, and news came from the gatehouse that someone was looking for him.

"Who is it?"

"Said they came from the gambling den."

"Hurry and invite them in."

There was news from Old Chaofeng.

Chen Guanlou could hardly hide his excitement; Old Chaofeng was still very reliable.

A moment later, the person was invited into the office.

A middle-aged man, with an extremely ordinary and unfamiliar face, the kind that one would forget after seeing, the kind that no one would pay attention to if thrown into a crowd, most suitable for inquiring about news.

The person claimed to be surnamed Lin and worked under Old Chaofeng.

Chen Guanlou asked him, "Is there news?"

"Old Chaofeng asked me to tell Prison Clerk Chen that the previous entrustment is void, and this is the commission, returned in full."

The Lin-surnamed man placed an envelope on the desk, which contained silver notes.

"What's going on? You can't find out about my little matter? That is Old Chaofeng, the well-known information gatherer in the capital; there is nothing in the capital area that he doesn't know. A mere entrustment, you actually returned the commission."

The Lin-surnamed man's eyebrows were calm, "Prison Clerk Chen, calm your anger; I am also acting according to orders. As far as I know, your entrustment, the clues are broken, and it can no longer be investigated. No useful things were found, so this entrustment can only be regarded as a failure, and the commission can only be returned. I hope Prison Clerk Chen will forgive me."

"Why are the clues broken? How can it not be investigated?" Chen Guanlou pursued.

"All traces have been erased by people; without clues, it cannot be investigated."

Chen Guanlou snorted coldly, "So you gave up."

"Old Chaofeng said, if you still trust him, next time you come, I won't charge you."

Chen Guanlou thought for a while, put away the envelope, "Fine! You go back and tell Old Chaofeng, I know. Next time I encounter something, I will still look for him."

"Thanks! Goodbye!" The Lin-surnamed man turned and left the Heavenly Prison rapidly, mixed into the crowd, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Chen Guanlou figured it out; if he couldn't find it, he couldn't find it. At worst, kill one if one comes, kill a pair if a pair comes. If they are not afraid of death, just send people to assassinate him. If they have the ability, send a Ninth-Rank warrior. Below Ninth Rank, he can easily deal with it, slaughtering pigs and sheep. Especially since he was about to break through the fourth chapter of "Ascension Record" and enter the fifth chapter.

He hadn't had a proper fight with a Ninth-Rank warrior yet, but he was very willing to try, to try the weight of both sides. He was worried about not finding an opponent; if the mastermind was willing to send warriors one after another to give him practice, he was still very welcome.

As for who the mastermind was, it didn't matter anymore.

He just wanted to poke people. In his territory, wanting him to restrain himself and not offend people was absolutely impossible. With the growth of strength, he wanted to live more freely and follow his heart.

The weather was hot, and there were no ice cubes at home to lower the heat, so Chen Guanlou simply stayed in the Heavenly Prison at night, treating it as being on duty. Using public resources, he got ice cubes to lower the heat. Eating iced fruit juice and the most primitive popsicles.

Except for the bed board being slightly hard, everything else was quite good. He solved all three meals a day in the cafeteria, didn't have to cook by himself, and avoided the suffering of sweating profusely.

The big pot dishes made by the cafeteria chef were average, but the small pot dishes tasted unique, even better than the chefs in the restaurants outside. As long as he spent a little bit of money, the chef was very willing to open a small stove for everyone.

However, ten out of ten and a half prison guards in the Heavenly Prison were gamblers. The characteristic of gamblers was that they would rather spend money on the gambling table than on food. Obviously, there was free big pot rice to eat, so why spend money to eat small stove?

Therefore, in the Heavenly Prison, there were actually very few people willing to spend money to eat small stove.

Chen Guanlou didn't lack money, nor did he gamble, so naturally, he was as comfortable as he could be. The cafeteria chef was also willing to earn some extra money. Both sides hit it off.

Sleeping in the middle of the night, there was movement in the direction of the Heavenly Prison gate.

Chen Guanlou opened his eyes instantly and walked out of the office wearing clothes.

He saw the people from the Six Sects arriving.

Chen Guanlou narrowed his eyes slightly, "Gentlemen, visiting in the middle of the night, what is the purpose?" ===== CHAPTER 366 =====

Just then, the people from the Six Shanmen arrived.

Chen Guanlou narrowed his eyes slightly, "Gentlemen, visiting in the middle of the night, what is the matter?"
