463: Chapter 463 Something's Going Wrong
Han Jingyang didn't expect Zhang Zhiyang to ask this question.
However, it was normal for Zhang Zhiyang to be able to guess it.
After all, Zhang Zhiyang had high enough clearance to directly access a lot of intelligence.
As long as one masters enough information, everyone is a wise man.
But he didn't answer, instead asking back: "Is there a difference?"
"No," Zhang Zhiyang said in a low voice: "But I suspect you might have found the wrong target."
"What do you mean?"
"This group of Japanese invaders might have nothing to do with that bronze tripod."
"Explain."
"The bronze tripod passed down by Yang Luchan is a good thing, but just how good it is, that's just a legend. Would the Japanese invaders pay such a high price for an uncertain good thing?"
"Perhaps the Japanese invaders confirmed through some means that the bronze tripod is a good thing."
"Fine, even if that's the case, the actions of the Japanese invaders are very unreasonable. If they want to take the bronze tripod away, they can only use paths that don't see the light. It sounds difficult, but in reality, there are many ways and even more channels. There are ways to easily transport living people out, let alone a bronze tripod that isn't very large in size? Is it worth going to such great lengths?"
Han Jingyang also furrowed his brows.
He had thought about these questions before setting off, but he trusted his intuition.
When he received news that the bronze tripod appeared in Dao City, he didn't quite believe it, so he didn't set off personally, only arranging for Shi Xiaoya and Yang Jinyuan to go over.
When he received the news from Zhang Zhiyang that a group of Japanese invaders had sneakily left Thousand Buddha Mountain in two groups, his first reaction was that the bronze tripod must be in the hands of this group of Japanese invaders, which is why he agreed to Zhang Zhiyang's request to activate the fast-chase mode without hesitation.
As a result, Zhang Zhiyang told him that the bronze tripod he longed for was not in the hands of this group of Japanese invaders.
Of course he didn't believe it.
However, what Zhang Zhiyang said was not without reason.
What to do now?
Continue chasing?
Or give up?
No matter what choice he made, Zhang Zhiyang would not and would not dare to have an opinion.
But he quickly furrowed his brows again.
No, Zhang Zhiyang is not the type of person to go back on his word. Even if he hadn't considered this question before, he wouldn't bring it up at this time.
When things are abnormal, there must be a demon.
Could it be that Zhang Zhiyang...
Realizing this, he asked directly: "What do you mean?"
"Cough, cough, I mean, why not just give up."
"Give up? Do you know what you are saying?"
"This is... the order from cough, cough. The intelligence they provided shows that this group of Japanese invaders is the same batch as those you killed in Xipo Village and Thousand Buddha Mountain. Now they are leaderless and extremely terrified, and can only think of ways to escape Quancheng. It has nothing to do with your bronze tripod."
"Are you sure?"
"Anyway... the intelligence given by cough, cough is like this. So I'm sorry, I can't continue to provide you with relevant help. My focus will shift to Dao City, strictly guarding against the various consequences that may be caused by the gathering of many martial artists."
Zhang Zhiyang said this and added: "Brother, I'm sorry."
He paused and added: "The Japanese invaders' Team B is now forty-six kilometers in front of you."
After speaking, there was a soft "buzz" sound, and the connection was cut off.
Han Jingyang took off his earpiece and threw it aside, exhaling: "It's good to cultivate within the official circles, but it's hard to be a person. Saying things against one's will, being unable to control one's actions. It's pitiful that such a great expert as Zhang Zhiyang has to live like a little daughter-in-law, swallowing his anger. Just thinking about it is stifling."
Liu Jing was a bit confused: "What exactly happened?"
"Someone above doesn't want Zhang Zhiyang to help me continue chasing this group of Japanese invaders."
"Doesn't that mean..."
"Shh, some things are better understood in the heart. The Japanese invaders were able to cause such a big stir in Quancheng, how could it be done by simple commercial behavior? Who knows how many human favors are mixed in."
"Then what to do?"
"It doesn't matter, keep chasing."
"But without Zhang Zhiyang's location updates, how can we chase?"
"I have a way."
Liu Jing was still a bit worried: "What if Zhang Zhiyang is right, and the bronze tripod we are looking for is not in the hands of this team of Japanese invaders..."
Han Jingyang took a deep breath: "It's no longer a question of whether it's the bronze tripod or not. From the moment they set an ambush to kill me, it has been a situation of life and death. If it were my countrymen, I would still have the patience to listen to their explanations, and if it were a misunderstanding, it could be resolved. But the Japanese invaders..."
He wished he could kill every Japanese invader who held hostility toward China.
How could he let go of those who dared to attack him?
Not one left!
He just wanted to kill until the Japanese invaders dared not step into China's borders again.
Unreasonable?
It's just this unreasonable.
When there was no ability, that was that. When there is ability, one must definitely take action and settle new and old grudges together.
Especially the Japanese metaphysics world; their hostility toward China is deep in their bones. If the Japanese practitioners get the upper hand, Chinese practitioners will inevitably suffer a devastating disaster. The previous Japanese invaders did exactly that, the current Japanese invaders are doing the same, and it is foreseeable that in the future, the Japanese invaders will still do this.
Therefore, showing mercy to the Japanese practitioners is equivalent to raising a tiger and letting it return to the mountain.
Kill one if you see one.
Kill a pair if you see a pair.
There is simply nothing to talk about.
Thinking of this, Han Jingyang slammed on the accelerator again. The high-spec Cayenne directly accelerated to over two hundred, speeding on the highway. Relying on his super reaction, powerful control, and stable mentality, he overtook cars as he saw them. In less than twenty minutes, he entered the territory of Shaanxi Province.
He turned into the service area, parked the car, took out the pastel bowl with the "Great Circle Light Technique", poured in mineral water, silently visualized the license plate number and vehicle model given by Zhang Zhiyang, and then activated the Great Circle Light Technique.
After a few breaths.
A picture appeared in the water bowl. In the picture, a Lu A Land Rover was turning.
Liu Jing exclaimed: "This is about to get off the highway!"
Han Jingyang nodded silently.
He lost Zhang Zhiyang's support on the front foot, and the target got off the highway and changed routes on the back foot. Who would believe there's no trickery?
Because the visualized target was the car, he could only observe the car itself from a rear-upper perspective; he couldn't see the situation inside the car.
The Lu A Land Rover turned off the highway, drove into the fast lane, and then turned onto a national road heading to the suburbs. The road conditions were getting worse, but the scenery on the side of the road was getting better and better, with green trees and red flowers everywhere, as well as occasionally flashing location signs, either national road numbers, town names, or village names.
Until the skill effect ended, Han Jingyang opened the map and searched: "Donggou Town, Su Village, it's only about seventeen kilometers away from us. Getting off at the highway exit ahead allows us to take a shortcut directly. You come drive."
Liu Jing switched to the driver's seat, started the car, got on the highway, and accelerated.
Five minutes later, they got off the highway and took a shortcut straight to Donggou Town.
Twenty-two minutes later.
Han Jingyang activated the Yuanguang Technique again.
The picture appeared.
It was still that Lu A Land Rover, but it had already stopped. Not much information could be seen in the picture, only that the place where it parked was not a regular parking lot, but it was not purely a wilderness either. It was a dirt road with signs of hardening, and there were scattered weeds and dead branches around.
Besides that, there was no more information.
Is this the destination?
It's a pity that more specific intelligence could not be observed.
However, just at this moment, a young man wearing a black suit walked into the picture, opened the trunk of the Lu A Land Rover, and carefully took out a box from inside.
Han Jingyang's heart "boomed", instantly excited!
It's this thing!
This size!
It must be the bronze tripod!
That bronze tripod passed down by Yang Luchan!
