Chapter 2048 Joint Layout
In the end, she shook her head, turned and left the gambling house.
"The situation is not good now. I'd better not go in rashly, so as not to alert the enemy and make it difficult to catch them again."
Thinking of this, she quickened her pace, intending to go back and discuss countermeasures with Chen Changli.
late at night.
Chen Changli had just returned from the county magistrate's office, and Wan Shufang pulled him aside and told him everything she had discovered today.
"It seems that the man might be the middleman between them and the Black Water Gang..." Chen Changli pondered for a moment, his eyes darkened: "I have deliberately shown that I am addicted to the county magistrate's wine recently. Tomorrow, I will go to him to ask for more wine."
"If I pretend to be addicted, he will definitely get carried away and take me to the Black Water Gang and use the Black Water Pills to contain me."
Hearing this, Wan Shufang hesitated. After all, this method was too risky. She didn't want Chen Changli to get into trouble. She looked at Chen Changli with worry: "But Changli, the county magistrate is full of tricks. I'm worried..."
"Shufang, you have no choice. You will take the secret guards to guard the door. If I see the leader of the Black Water Gang, I will send you a signal. We will work together from inside and outside, and nothing will happen."
They brought quite a few secret guards with them. If the Blackwater Gang leader didn't have many people around him, then those secret guards would be enough.
By the time we catch the gang leader and the county magistrate, why worry about not being able to deal with the others?
Wan Shufang was naturally aware of this. Seeing Chen Changli's determined expression, she hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded in agreement: "Okay, but you have to promise me that if the situation is not right, you should protect yourself first. Anyway, I can remove the poison of the Black Water Pill."
"By the way, I have something else to do tonight." Wan Shufang's eyes were deep and she showed Chen Changli a mysterious smile. He instantly understood what she wanted to do and looked a little helpless.
After taking out the things she had prepared from the space, Wan Shufang went out and headed towards the county magistrate's study.
The next morning, the two went their separate ways.
Chen Changli pretended to be addicted and ran to the study to find the county magistrate: "Sir, do you have any more wine? I want to drink more."
There was a slight red tint at the corners of his eyes and he looked excited. He was obviously addicted to the Black Water Pills, and this time he even needed more!
Seeing this, the county magistrate smiled slightly and deliberately said in an awkward tone, "Sir, I don't have much left."
"No, I need a lot. Lord County Magistrate, please help me." Seeing the lust in Chen Changli's eyes, the county magistrate instantly became complacent.
He sighed slowly, stood up and walked to Chen Changli, patting his shoulder gently: "It's not that there is no other way. Since the Lord wants it so much, then come with me."
As he spoke, he took the lead and walked in front, and Chen Changli followed without any hesitation. Soon, the county magistrate took Chen Changli out and went to the Black Water Gang's lair.
Now that Chen Changli has become addicted, in his opinion, Chen Changli is theirs. If they bring him to their lair and feed him the Black Water Pill at its full strength, they will be able to truly control him and even claim credit from that adult!
"It really is killing two birds with one stone." The county magistrate thought silently and quickened his pace. Before long, he took Chen Changli to a hidden underground alchemy room.
He turned on the switch and brought Chen Changli in.
Because he was too happy, the county magistrate did not notice Wan Shufang following him.
"It seems that this is their transaction location. I just wonder if the leader of the Blackwater Gang will be here..."
"An Yi, have everyone lie in ambush in the dark and wait for Chang Li's orders at any time!"
"Yes, ma'am." An Yi responded and waved to the other secret guards, and they dispersed instantly.
They waited quietly outside. The longer the time went by, the more anxious Wan Shufang became, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Finally, a red light burst out!
"An Yi, go!" Wan Shufang gave the order and immediately rushed in with the secret guards. She also had a tranquilizer gun in her hand. Wan Shufang did not dare to be careless when dealing with these people. If the tranquilizer gun didn't work, she would take out all the sleeping pills and use them.
In the alchemy room, the leader of the Blackwater Gang and the county magistrate did not expect Chen Changli to suddenly send a signal.
What was even more unexpected was that Wan Shufang rushed in with her men almost instantly.
The two were stunned and looked at Chen Changli warily: "My Lord, you have also been poisoned by Chinese medicine. Do you want to die by dealing with us?"
Hearing this, Chen Changli sneered and did not intend to answer. Instead, he walked to Wan Shufang and said, "An Yi, leave him alive."
The leader of the Blackwater Gang brought not many people with him, so Chen Changli was not worried about not being able to win the battle. He then gave a signal and the secret guards rushed forward.
In a moment, a fierce battle broke out between them and the Blackwater Gang. Chen Changli's secret guards were all top masters, and they quickly suppressed the Blackwater Gang.
The leader of the Black Water Gang was furious when he saw that the situation was not good. He shouted, "Chen Changli, Wan Shufang, you guys really underestimated our Black Water Gang!"
As he said that, he took out a black water pill and swallowed it, hoping to use it to fight a desperate battle with the others.
But the next second, his eyes suddenly widened, bloodstains flowed from his pupils, and in a moment, several bloodstains appeared on his cheeks. Blood was flowing from all his seven orifices, and he fell to the ground with a thud.
"Boss!" The county magistrate's heart almost broke when he saw this scene, and he ran over quickly: "Boss, what's wrong with you?"
The county magistrate shook the leader of the Black Water Gang and reached out his trembling hand towards his nose, but suddenly moved it away.
"Dead, dead, how is it possible? How can one die after taking the Black Water Pill?"
Suddenly, he looked up at Wan Shufang, and thought of his study room, which seemed to have been tampered with. The county magistrate suddenly understood everything.
"Wan Shufang, it's you, it's you who moved Jinzhi's blood and moved the medicine of the Black Water Pill!"
Hearing this, Wan Shufang did not deny it. As early as the second day after Chen Changli took the Chinese medicine, she started tampering with the pills and has been doing so until now. However, Chen Changli did not take the medicine in the past few days.
"County magistrate, you have no way to retreat." Wan Shufang looked at him coldly and signaled the secret guards to kidnap the man. The county magistrate was instantly unable to move and his face became panic-stricken.
He was a cowardly person, otherwise he would not have used his own daughter as a medicine to seek the elixir of immortality.
"My Lord, Madam, I...I was wrong. Please spare my life. I didn't do this. I am willing to give out the mastermind behind this!"
The county magistrate struggled and, in a panic, chose to give out the person behind the crime in order to save his own life.
Chen Changli and Wan Shufang did not expect that there were other people involved in this matter. They shook their heads at An Yi, who let the man go. He then crawled to the feet of Chen Changli and Wan Shufang and kowtowed.
"Thank you, sir, and thank you, madam, for not killing me. The master behind me is the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue in the court. He used the Black Water Gang to refine banned drugs and make a lot of money. He also intended to control the officials in the court!"
"I am just following orders. Please forgive me, sir."
