Chapter 1509 Fat Tiger is Captured, Chu Chen is in a Hurry

Hearing the noise, the madam dared not delay and immediately ordered someone to report to the authorities. Her thugs from the brothel also rushed out and ran towards the second floor.

However, Gian underestimated the strength of this group.

The moment he uttered his first words, a cold knife was pressed against his neck.

"You little bastard, so you were just pretending to be stupid. Believe me or not, I'll kill you with one stab."

"If you're so capable, then kill me."

Fat Tiger understood that these people definitely wanted the formula, so he was safe at the moment.

"Heh, you think I wouldn't dare kill you? You should know that even if I kill you, there are still so many people in Liexi Village who can use them to blackmail Chu Chen."

Upon hearing this, Fat Tiger immediately wilted.

Yes, these people are wicked and they're even from Liexi Village. They can all blackmail Brother Chen.

It seems that it would be better for me to stay alive and go with them, at least to buy Chu Chen time to prepare.

"Okay, I'll go with you."

"Hmph, it would have been better if you had done this earlier. You brothel owners, you'd better pay up."

After saying that, the group of them carried Lu Hu and walked out of the brothel through the back door.

When the soldiers arrived, there was no sign of Fat Tiger.

Immediately afterwards, Lu Jixing received news that Pang Hu had been captured. This was his dereliction of duty, so he made arrangements overnight, and the soldiers of the entire city of Seoul laid a net to search for Pang Hu.

However, three days later, these people seemed to have vanished into thin air, without a trace.

Left with no other option, Lu Jixing could only send someone to the capital to deliver the message.

Chu Chen received the message three days later: "General Tang, my brother is in trouble, I must get to Hancheng quickly."

Ignoring the leisurely pace of the procession, Chu Chen quickly put away the guns and bullets in the carriage, mounted his horse, and rode straight towards Seoul.

Seeing this, Tang Yun also changed to a fast horse and, together with Chu Chen, quickly headed towards Hancheng.

On the fifth day, Chu Chen and Tang Yun rushed into the city lord's mansion: "City Lord, is there any news!"

Seeing Chu Chen's anxious expression, Lu Jixing shook his head: "I've searched the entire city of Hancheng, but to no avail."

"It's all my fault for not protecting Brother Fat Tiger. Otherwise, he wouldn't be missing now, his life or death unknown."

Chu Chen waved his hand to stop him: "Lord City Lord, there is no need to blame yourself. They had premeditation, preparation, planning and arrangements. It is impossible for them to keep an eye on one person. Tell me about how he was captured."

Lu Jixing didn't say anything more, and directly explained to him the process of Pang Hu's arrest and what they had found out so far.

Half an hour later, Chu Chen frowned.

"You mean, the group that captured Fat Tiger was a bandit organization from the outskirts of Seoul?"

"That's right. Based on the investigation over the past few days, it's very likely that they are involved, but all of this is just speculation."

Chu Chen smiled after hearing this.

"In that case, let's stop guessing."

After speaking, Chu Chen turned to Tang Yun and asked, "General Tang, are you interested in this bandit organization?"

“Mr. Chu, your brother is our brother. Rest assured, we will definitely investigate. If there is any resistance, this bandit organization will have no need to exist.”

After listening for a moment, Chu Chen began to plan with Tang Yun.

It's very simple. If it really is this bandit organization, then if a large number of soldiers rush over, they will likely fight to the death.

What he wanted was a living, breathing Gian, not revenge for Gian.

Therefore, he made an agreement with Tang Yun that he would go first, and they would follow, with a four-hour interval between them.

If Chu Chen hasn't returned within four hours of entering the bandits' territory, Tang Yun's reinforcements will arrive immediately.

"Mr. Chu, can you manage on your own?"

"Don't worry, I'm fine on my own. At least, my own safety won't be a problem."

Tang Yun looked at Chu Chen, feeling uneasy. If something happened to Chu Chen, he would lose his position as general.

“Mr. Chu, this is too dangerous. As far as we know, this bandit gang is no ordinary place; they have many experts among them.”

"Hehe, is it more impressive than flying in the clouds?"

Yun Shangfei? Tang Yun immediately felt relieved after hearing this. Yes, if Mr. Chu could subdue a thug like Yun Shangfei and was unharmed, it would prove just how powerful Chu Chen was.

"Mr. Chu, go ahead, but be careful. My men will be up there in four hours!"

"Okay, let's set off right away."

Chu Chen ate a few bites of the steamed buns prepared by Lu Jixing, then mounted a fast horse and headed towards Jiaozishan Mountain next to Hancheng.

Jiaozi Mountain gets its name from its shape resembling a sedan chair.

There is only one path leading up the mountain, facing Seoul, while behind it is a high cliff.

Therefore, this place was chosen by the bandits because it was easy to defend and difficult to attack.

However, such terrain also has a disadvantage: once someone attacks, they will have nowhere to retreat.

Chu Chen understood that their purpose in capturing Pang Hu was probably the same as what he had encountered in the capital: the formula for the alcohol.

Given this, they probably wouldn't just kill someone like Fat Tiger; otherwise, they wouldn't just kidnap him, they would kill him.

Therefore, Fat Tiger is most likely safe and sound at this moment.

As for whether it was the work of this band of mountain bandits, he was simply gambling that Lu Jixing's investigation results were true.

If he loses the bet, Gian's danger will increase.

But at this moment he had no choice and was extremely anxious to find Fat Tiger to rescue him.

Another point is that if someone wants to use Gian to blackmail him, they might give him information.

However, he couldn't wait for the message, so he asked Tang Yun to arrange for someone to wait in the courtyard for the messenger. If that was the case, with Tang Yun's resources, he could deliver it to him as quickly as possible.

Make sure you know the information before you even reach Jiaozishan.

Chu Chen rode a fast horse, with two pistols and a long knife at his waist, along with a magazine of about twenty.

More than a hundred bullets were enough to intimidate those mountain bandits.

Fat Tiger was locked in a dark little house, with a steamed bun in front of him.

A fierce-looking man was staring intently at him: "Will you talk or not? Will you talk or not? Will you talk or not?"

The man was furious when he saw the fat tiger pretending to be crazy right away, so he stepped forward and slapped him repeatedly.

"Big...Big Brother, just ask!"

Fat Tiger was stunned by the sudden slaps and said with an innocent look on his face.

After finishing his attack, the man turned to his henchmen behind him and asked, "What, didn't you guys ask?"

"Boss, you didn't tell us what we were asking!"

Uh... those adults said to keep it a secret, how could they forget about this: "Alright, all of you get out, I'll interrogate you myself."

"Hey fatty, tell me, what's the formula for your alcohol stuff?"
