Xiao Zheng turned around slowly and his solemn gaze landed on the middle-aged man behind him. In an instant, his pupils abruptly shrank, and his expression involuntarily changed drastically.
It's him?
He did not expect it to be him!
Who was this person?
Xiao Zheng was serving in the army and had undergone special training for the purpose of participating in the Martial Arts Competition. He was known as Zhao Tanhua's top expert!
His appearance caused a myriad of thoughts to run through Xiao Zheng's mind, and he swiftly understood that tonight's plot was absolutely not the work of Xue Gang alone. There was surely an even more enormous power behind him, and there were even more dark hands that wanted him dead.
No wonder, no wonder Xue Gang was so daring and dared to kill someone in the garrison area. It seemed like he had received some kind of promise and a tempting reward!
Are you sure you can kill someone without any hindrance in front of me?
This was what the middle-aged man said to Xiao Zheng. If it was someone else, they might be suspicious and arrogant. However, it came from Zhao Tanhua's mouth. It was a matter of course and right.
Who was Zhao Lei? He was the special training instructor for the seeded contestants who had participated in the Martial Arts Competition many times. He was experienced and powerful. Fifteen years ago, he was ranked third in the Martial Arts Competition of the Three Northern Military Regions.
Xiao Zheng had been specially trained by him for three months, and had suffered quite a bit from it. Therefore, he did not have a good impression of this person.
Zhao Lei had a medium build and wore a Chinese tunic suit. His skin was the color of wheat and he looked energetic and capable. However, his small eyes were filled with a strong killing intent. He went straight for Xiao Zheng!
They used to be an instructor and a student, but after not seeing each other for many years, it was as if they were enemies. Why?
It was because from the day Xiao Zheng entered the special training team, Zhao Lei had been targeting him. Not only did he not teach him any experience in the past three months, but he also forced him to consume too much of his energy. This caused Xiao Zheng to be physically and mentally exhausted and he could not participate in the Martial Arts Competition in his best condition.
The reason was that Xiao Zheng had blocked someone's path and threatened someone's chances of winning the Martial Arts Competition. Moreover, Xiao Zheng had never bowed to anyone. Therefore, the conflict between the two intensified from the first day of the special training. In the end, they parted ways.
Now that they met, how could Zhao Lei give him a good attitude?
"Instructor, why aren't you training the new recruits in the army? What are you doing here in Mingzhu?" Xiao Zheng asked despite knowing the answer. A mocking expression appeared on his face.
"I'll clean up the mess. I'll take care of you. " Zhao Lei had his arms behind his back as his gaze indifferently swept past Xue Gang, who was half-sitting on the ground and had a face covered in blood, and he frowned as he spoke. "You really are a troublemaker. You like to cause trouble wherever you go."
"You flatter me." Xiao Zheng smiled calmly and said calmly. "But I have a problem with what you said."
"What do you think?" Zhao Lei asked indifferently.
"You can use the term 'cleaning up the household' on Yan Shang, but using it on me doesn't seem too accurate, does it?" Xiao Zheng asked nonchalantly. "You taught him, but you didn't teach me anything. What do you mean by 'cleaning up the sect'? "
"Do you still need me to teach an arrogant person like you?" Zhao Lei sneered.
"Indeed, you have nothing worth learning from me," Xiao Zheng said lightly. "You're quite self-aware about this."
Zhao Lei's expression darkened. He said coldly: "I haven't seen you for so many years, but you haven't changed at all. You're still so full of yourself! "
Xiao Zheng smiled and said lightly: "If I become like you, then I'd rather I didn't change."
"Impudent!" Zhao Lei's expression changed abruptly. His killing intent soared: "Xiao Zheng, today I'll let you know what it means to respect your teacher!"
"Bullshit." Xiao Zheng put away his fountain pen and said without raising his head. "Are you even worthy of calling yourself a teacher? You're just a pug that follows the trend of others. "
Zhao Lei's anger could not be contained. Like a furious lion, he charged towards Xiao Zheng. He swore to clean up the household and get rid of this thorn in his side!
…
Zhang Lan and Lan Xin, who were refused at the door, were extremely anxious. Because of Zhang Lan's work, her network and connections were definitely stronger than Lan Xin's. Especially when it came to finding a legendary figure like Lu Dashan, Zhang Lan had power and connections that Lan Xin could not imagine.
After half an hour of phone calls, Zhang Lan finally found out Lu Dashan's private number from an old businessman that she had met a few times and couldn't even remember his name.
"Old Heng, I'll treat you to a meal next time." Zhang Lan hung up the phone, then quickly dialed Lu Dashan's private number and impatiently waited for the call to be picked up.
After a long time, a mellow and steady male voice finally came from the other side of the phone. Zhang Lan remembered that this voice was the voice of the middle-aged man from the class reunion.
"Hello."
Zhang Lan nervously asked: "Hello, is this Boss Lu?"
"It's me." A slightly puzzled voice came from the other side of the phone. "You are?"
"I'm Zhang Lan, Xiao Zheng's classmate. We met at Jiulong City last night. "Zhang Lan hurriedly revealed her identity to the other party.
"Oh, so you're Xiao Zheng's classmate." Lu Dashan's voice had clearly become gentler as he asked with a smile. "Miss Zhang, is there something you need from me?"
"Yes. I have something urgent to talk to you about. "Zhang Lan didn't bother with pleasantries and spoke quickly. "Something happened to Xiao Zheng. Only you can save him now. "
"Something happened to Xiao Zheng? What happened? "Lu Dashan's surprised voice came from the other side of the phone.
"He was captured by the garrison. I believe that they won't let Xiao Zheng go so easily. Boss Lu, can you think of a way? If you wait any longer, I'm afraid that something will happen to Xiao Zheng. "Zhang Lan said anxiously.
In the end, Xue Gang was her husband. Who knew Xue Gang better than her? With Xue Gang's ruthless style of doing things, not to mention offending him and beating his brother, even if it was an ordinary little thing, he wouldn't easily let it go.
Zhang Lan knew that if no one came out to rescue Xiao Zheng tonight, it would definitely be a big deal.
"Well, I got it. Miss Zhang, don't worry, I will understand this as soon as possible. And then give you an answer. "
Lu Dashan said and hung up the phone, then put down the teacup in his hand, glanced at his wife who was sitting on the side eating melon seeds and watching TV, and hesitated: "Wife, something happened to Xiao Zheng."
"Oh." Qin Shuang spat out the melon seed shell and asked slowly. "What happened?"
"He was caught by the garrison." Lu Dashan reported.
"How did he offend the people of the garrison?" Qin Shuang said strangely.
"You forgot. He beat Xue Shao last time. Xue Shao's big brother, Xue Gang, works in the garrison. "Lu Dashan said.
"The Xue family's ability is really not small. They actually sent the garrison to find fault. "Qin Shuang said with a sneer. "A group of national parasites who use their power for personal gain."
"But I don't think this thing is so simple." Lu Dashan shook his head gently and lit a cigarette. "I have to make a few phone calls and ask."
After that, he picked up the landline on the coffee table and made a few phone calls. Five minutes later, Lu Dashan put down the phone and said with a dignified expression: "No wonder Zhang Lan will look for me overnight. It seems that she has nowhere to go."
