Chapter 144: 140 Gang Crimes

The first episode ended amid many viewers' nostalgic reflections.

For Tang Jun, this was both the first and the last episode.

After stepping offstage, he walked expressionless to producer Xu Rongxuan and bluntly stated he would not record a second episode, demanding that his episode not be edited at all.

Xu Rongxuan said with difficulty, "Director Tang, we signed a contract. If you won't continue recording, fine—but we can't cancel this episode."

In Du Shiyan's view, both theories held merit, and the evidence at the scene did not rule out either possibility.

Among all the enemies Lu Zheng encountered, Gu Hong was likely the one who understood his strength best.

The two governors Zhao and Chen entering Liangzhou was a win-win. After they took control of the province, a group of dozens of riders entered Wudu from Hanyang Prefecture, bypassing the city walls entirely and heading straight for Donglang Valley, following the Ju River southeast to slip past the border defenses and enter Hanzhong territory.

Soon after, Yuan Shu bade farewell to Yan Bei, led his troops to Luyang in Nanyang Commandery of Jingzhou, and prepared to meet Sun Jian, supplying him with grain.

Upon hearing of the Yuan court's transportation method, this gave Zhu Yuanzhang a major insight. Thus, Zhu Yuanzhang decided to disguise himself as Liu Futong's Red Turban forces.

"So what can you do? Just talk to people?" Old Qian looked at the box, thinking it seemed useless beyond speaking.

Although Bi Bu Fan had previously shown astonishing ability and indeed received the Purple Ultimate Heavenly Fire, these were not the key factors—what truly transformed him and granted him demonic talent was Duan Chou.

Li Jiao's body swayed; had he not grabbed the trembling demon blade, he would have collapsed on the spot from dizziness.

Lu Yinzong and Ruan Xizhi both stared in shock as the red horse crossed the great river. No matter how wide the river, if this red horse treated it as flat ground, crossing it would be but a blink. After crossing, the horse leapt onto the main road and vanished twenty miles away in an instant.

This mission down the mountain had been planned for a long time; every arrangement was flawless, unfolding step by step exactly as he intended.

The group sat in the conference room a while longer, discussing what to do after capturing Bai Zhixuan.

Then, two figures emerged from the room where the door had been shattered into pieces.

The boy clearly liked Susu—but did Susu like the boy?

The movement came so suddenly that Zhen Rou was startled, instinctively trying to pull away—only to feel her waist seized, yanked forward, and slammed against Cao Jin's chest.

"It's none of your concern. Go home," Chu Ningyi said, gesturing for Chu Wei to leave.

On her way to the tent, Zhen Rou learned the current situation from Zhou Yu, so once inside and seeing no one else, she wasted no time.

Originally, Fuhu Gang was a low hill, named so because its shape resembled a giant tiger crouching on the ground.

Some said the scene was too chaotic, the corpses damaged beyond recognition after death.

It was far too early; Zhen Rou's head throbbed, yet she reached for the bell—her hand fumbled in vain, remembering this was Cao Jin's tent, and they hadn't yet placed the summoning bell, so she had to throw off the covers.

Not only did Ye Yuxi frown; beside him, Bai Jinyi also slightly frowned, sensing something suspicious here.

But Yan Suirui couldn't sit still—her purpose in coming out was to find a place to hide those infested rice grains, not only to clear space in her own storage but also to bring extra grain home.

"Ah!" Jing Yian suddenly felt something brush his ankle—pain flared, and in the dim firelight, he saw Hua Qi crouching before him.
