"Duan Changye, chairman of the Changye Pharmaceutical Group in Pingchuan Province. Although he's the CEO of a listed company, he's low-key and rarely appears in public …"
After Qin Lang returned to the assassin group's underground base, he began to search for information on this "Duan Changye." In Qin Lang's opinion, the mission given to him by the Taoists was definitely not simple. Otherwise, they wouldn't have used three Qi-gathering Pills as the price. Although these three Qi-gathering Pills were of medium quality, they were still elixirs, and any martial artist could take them. Taking one could save a year's effort of breathing and expelling the world's spiritual energy.
However, Qin Lang wasn't interested in these Qi-gathering Pills, so he directly gave them to Fat Tiger.
"Master, leave this mission to me." Fat Tiger immediately took the initiative to show off after receiving benefits from Qin Lang.
"Leaving it to you … hmm, it seems to be a good idea." The assassin group didn't have any more detailed information on this Duan Changye. It seemed that this guy was just an ordinary businessman. However, Qin Lang was 100% sure that he wasn't a simple pharmacist, but he didn't know what secrets this person was hiding. Since he couldn't find out, he could only test him.
Perhaps, Fat Tiger was a good choice. After all, he was a cat.
"Master, don't worry. I'm going to deal with that guy." Fat Tiger actually chuckled, looking very strange. It seemed that this guy had eaten too many elixirs and was becoming more and more like a "monster."
"Wait —" Qin Lang hurriedly stopped Fat Tiger. "If you don't want to die there, come with me. It's not that simple."
"Master, it's not that complicated. Didn't I just read this person's information?" Fat Tiger said disapprovingly.
"What you saw was only superficial information," Qin Lang reminded Fat Tiger. "Don't think that you're a real professional assassin now. As an assassin, the first thing to consider is not how to kill the target, but how to not die. Killers will always be killed. This principle has never changed. Don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you're a cat.
If you're not careful, you'll die miserably if your identity is exposed. "
"Miserably? How miserably? "
"If a human assassin fails to kill someone, they're likely to be slaughtered by others. But you're a cat. Not only can you be slaughtered, but you can also be eaten. "Qin Lang threatened Fat Tiger.
"Humans are really cruel." Fat Tiger sighed.
"The weak are prey to the strong." Fat Tiger sighed. Qin Lang said, "First of all, you have to figure out Duan Zhangye's background. He's definitely not an ordinary businessman. How about this, you go to Duan Zhangye's house and observe him. "Remember, you can only observe."
"Boss, aren't you being too careful?" Fat Tiger seemed to disagree with Qin Lang's' indecisiveness'.
"Remember my words. Otherwise, you won't have any spirit pills to eat." Qin Lang coldly snorted.
If Duan Zhangye could be killed so easily, how could the Taoists give Qin Lang such a high treatment? Don't think that Qin Lang could casually give Fat Tiger elixirs as if they were worthless. In fact, Qin Lang was only generous to the people around him. The amount of elixirs that the Dragon Snake Troop and the assassin group received was still limited.
Seeing that Qin Lang was so insistent, Fat Tiger didn't dare to disobey Qin Lang's words and obediently sneaked into Duan Zhangye's mansion.
Two days later, Fat Tiger returned to Qin Lang's side. Qin Lang said, "Master, I don't see any problem with Duan Zhangye. Although some people in the family practice martial arts, there are only a few who have entered the Profound Martial Realm. Even I can deal with him …"
"But?"
"What but?" Fat Tiger asked.
"But what do you think is wrong?" Qin Lang said, "Get to the point."
"I don't know why, but when I entered the Duan Family's courtyard, I felt my hair stand on end, as if something was staring at me," Fat Tiger Qin Lang said.
"That's right." Qin Lang said, "After entering the Duan Family for two days, I tried to find you through the spiritual imprint, but my spiritual power was cut off, so I'm sure there's something strange in the Duan Family. What's even stranger is that the thing that cut off my spiritual power is definitely not human. "
"Not human? Could it be a monster? "Fat Tiger was also a little shocked, and his hair stood on end.
"Aren't you a monster? So it's normal even if there are monsters in the Duan Family." Qin Lang said, "However, nothing happened to you, which means that thing didn't notice your existence."
Fat Tiger heaved a sigh of relief and retracted all his hair.
"Think about it carefully. What else is special about the Duan Family," Qin Lang said, "As long as it's evil, there should be traces. Think about it carefully."
Fat Tiger recalled carefully and seemed to remember something. "By the way, the Duan Family seems to kill chickens every day. They have a chicken coop in the backyard, and they feed roosters."
"Oh … all roosters?" Qin Lang felt that this might be the key. The blood of roosters was extremely Yang to ward off evil. A family like the Duan Family did not lack chicken to eat, so it was indeed strange to raise these roosters.
It seemed that the Duan Family's roosters were the problem.
Qin Lang thought for a moment and said to Fat Tiger, "Go back and continue to keep an eye on those roosters. See what they're doing with them. If there's anything abnormal, report to me immediately! "
Fat Tiger obeyed Qin Lang's request and returned to monitor the Duan Family's movements.
The reason why Qin Lang didn't go with Fat Tiger was that he still wanted to know why the Taoists wanted to deal with the Duan Family. If he rashly got involved without knowing the stakes, it would be very dangerous.
However, the assassin group's channels could no longer find the problem with the Duan Family, which meant that Qin Lang could only rely on other channels. Fortunately, Qin Lang did have another channel he could use: the Qingcheng Sect!
The Qingcheng Sect was one of the twelve Taoist sects, and the Qingcheng Sect was also the largest Taoist force in Pingchuan Province, so they should know something.
In order to quickly understand the situation, Qin Lang went to the teahouse where he had previously met Perfected Shui Jing. After entering the teahouse, Qin Lang said to the waiter inside, "Please inform Perfected Shui Jing that a friend wants to meet him."
"Perfected Shui Jing isn't someone anyone can meet." The waiter didn't seem to give Qin Lang face.
