Xuanhuan: My practice is infinitely upgraded

Chapter 35 The Supervisor's Clues

The two walked all the way and came to the Zongmen horse farm at the foot of the mountain.

After showing their ID cards, they each paid two contribution points, rented two red-blooded horses, and headed all the way towards Chuanjiang City.

The red-blooded horse is tall and tall, belonging to a strange beast, and can travel thousands of miles a day.

And Chuanjiang City is only four hundred miles away from the Great Luo Sect's residence.

Running all the way.

In the afternoon, the two came to the mine area not far from Chuanjiang City.

After showing the ID card, someone went in and notified immediately.

After a while, the person in charge of the mine greeted them in person.

"Haha! Congratulations to the two adults!"

This is a middle-aged man with a full face and a slightly short and fat body. He walked forward quickly and smiled flatteringly.

"My lords, the road inside is not easy to walk, why don't you leave the horse here?"

Jiang Heng and the two jumped off their horses.

The middle-aged man immediately called the two of them, commanded in a solemn voice to take the horse away, and then smiled again on his face.

While leading the two of them to walk in, he said:
"My lords, I'm the owner of the mine, named Gu Chengping. I don't know how to call you two?"

"My name is Jiang Heng."

"My name is Mi Wenjie."

"Master Jiang, Master Mi, it must be exhausting. I have already ordered people to prepare food and drinks for the two of you."

Jiang Heng raised his hand to stop it.

"No, just tell us about the incident."

Qi Xue Pill is the best food, so Jiang Heng has not eaten ordinary food for a long time, after all, there are too many impurities.

Gu Chengping looked at the two, his eyes fell on Mi Wenjie.

As the person in charge of the property under the name of Da Luozong, he can naturally see their respective identities from their uniforms.

Jiang Heng, who was wearing a green martial arts uniform, was an outer disciple.

Mi Wenjie, who was wearing a blue martial arts uniform, was an inner disciple.

Generally speaking, if two people are present at the same time, the opinion of inner disciples must be the main one.

Therefore, the leader of the two on this trip should be Mi Wenjie.

"This mission is led by Senior Brother Jiang, just listen to him."

Mi Wenjie said with a forced smile.

Gu Chengping was taken aback for a moment, then he reacted and said immediately:
"Okay! Then Master Jiang, let's go to the study first."

Several people turned around and soon arrived at Gu Chengping's study.

The three were seated.

Gu Chengping took out a dossier, handed it to the two, and at the same time introduced the relevant information of the incident to the two.

"The red iron extracted from our mine is of high value, and the goods are delivered to the Weapon Hall fifty miles away every week, with a total value of about 20 taels."

"So, I suspect that a certain organization is eyeing us. After finding out our route, they specially ambushed and robbed all the goods."

Jiang Heng and the others also read some information about the mission in the sect, but it was an urgent report after all, so it was not that detailed.

But the information in hand now clearly writes the time, place, and process of the incident.

The robbery happened three days ago. The three sect disciples stationed here escorted the convoy as usual, but they were suddenly killed on a mountain road. No one survived, and the goods disappeared without a trace.

"In the surrounding cities, have there been large quantities of red iron transactions recently?"

Although the other party was unlikely to sell the stolen goods so quickly, Jiang Heng still asked subconsciously.

Sure enough, Gu Chengping shook his head.

"No, the other party was clearly prepared. After the robbery, they immediately hid the stolen goods and disappeared."

"Beside the mountain road that was robbed and killed, there is a big mountain. I suspect that the other party may temporarily hide in the mountain, so I sent dozens of people to search in the mountain, but the mountain is too large and the terrain is complicated. So far, no effective evidence has been found. clue."

Jiang Heng pondered for a moment, then asked again:

"Transport team, how many carriages are there?"

Gu Chengping was startled, and then replied: "Ten cars."

"How much does it weigh? Will it leave a clear indentation on the ground?"

"A car is about [-] catties, but that mountain road is an important commercial road, and there are often merchants coming and going. Even if there are indentations, they will be covered up by other traces."

Jiang Heng thought for a moment.

In the current intelligence, there is no useful clue at all, and there is no direction for thinking at all.

Jiang Heng has never investigated the case, and he has no clue.

He simply gave up thinking, looked at Mi Wenjie, and asked calmly:

"Junior Brother Mi, what do you think about this?"

Mi Wenjie glanced at Jiang Heng, then at Gu Chengping.

"Go and call the Overseer."

Gu Chengping nodded immediately, turned and left.

Jiang Heng asked curiously:
"What is an Overseer?"

"There are many industries under the name of the sect, and the interests involved are too huge. Even with the strength of the sect, it is inevitable that there will be people who take risks."

"So, in every big industry, there are guards and supervisors stationed."

"The division of labor between the two duties is different."

"The guards are responsible for armed protection, and the supervisors are only responsible for operating records, operating supervision, and reporting to the sect on a regular basis."

"Although the inspectors are only responsible for collecting various operational intelligence inside the mine, they may be able to find some clues from it."

After a while, Gu Chengping walked over with a middle-aged man in the blue uniform of Da Luo Zong.

"Two senior brothers!"

As an outer disciple, the middle-aged man shouted very politely when he entered the door.

The two nodded and signaled Gu Chengping to step back.

After the three briefly introduced themselves to each other, they entered the topic.

"Junior Brother Fang, has there been any unusual incidents in the mine recently?"

The middle-aged man Fang Xiong said in a deep voice, "Yes!"

"In the evening three days ago, a small building in the mine was burned. Five miners happened to be in the building and died unexpectedly."

Jiang Heng and the two couldn't help but look at each other.

Just now I thought there was no clue about the case, but in a blink of an eye, a clue appeared.

Three days ago, it was the day of the robbery and killing incident.

If it is said that the two are not related, no one will believe it.

Jiang Heng asked:
"Do similar accidents usually happen?"

Fang Xiong shook his head.

"Rarely, the mine attaches great importance to safety, and there are not two fatal accidents in a year."

"Besides, even if there is an accident, it is usually an accident inside the mine, and there are basically no accidents outside."

"Where's the dead body?"

"It has been cremated."

"The deaths of several people are likely to be related to the robbery and murder. Why were they cremated so quickly?"

Jiang Heng frowned.

Fang Xiong quickly explained:
"Senior brother Jiang, the supervisor's responsibilities are clearly stipulated. They are only responsible for recording some developments in the industry. We are not allowed to intervene in any actions that do not clearly damage the interests of the sect."

"So, we just recorded it and didn't interfere."

The two then asked for some more information, but apart from this accident, there was nothing unusual about it.
