115: A Thousand-Mile Journey to Find Relatives, Mysterious Family Background

Police Station.

The Chief's office.

Chen Yang cautiously took out a certificate.

"Don't be nervous!"

"What I need to take out is not a gun."

He took the certificate.

The Chief looked puzzled.

Holding it in his hand, he examined it carefully.

He softly read aloud:

"Military Intelligence Bureau."

"Special Operations Department, Position: Consultant."

"Major rank???"

The Chief's eyes instantly widened.

He looked at Chen Yang in disbelief.

Heavens!

He was an old police officer.

Having worked for over twenty years, he was experienced and knowledgeable.

He had also had contact with some special departments.

Normally,

these important figures were rarely seen (like a dragon only showing its head).

If they appeared,

it definitely meant a monumental event had occurred!

The next second.

*Clap!*

A standard salute at attention.

His voice was loud and clear.

"Caiyun City, Datong Road Police Station, Chief Li Baotian."

"I salute you!"

Chen Yang was momentarily stunned.

For a moment, he didn't react.

After a brief pause,

his expression straightened, becoming solemn.

*Clap!*

He returned the salute at attention.

After pausing for a second, Chen Yang lowered his hand, a hint of a smile appearing on his face.

"No need to be so formal!"

He sat down on the chair.

Waving his hand,

signaling the other party to relax a bit.

Li Baotian respectfully handed the certificate back with both hands.

He took out the best tea leaves.

And personally poured a cup for Chen Yang.

"Leader, please have some tea!"

Chen Yang smiled and pointed to the chair opposite him.

"Sit down and let's talk."

Li Baotian carefully perched on the edge of the chair.

"Leader, what are your instructions?"

Chen Yang smiled.

"Actually, it's nothing major."

"I just wanted to trouble you all to help me find someone."

Immediately,

he explained Zhuo Wuyang's situation.

He asked the station to help investigate his current address.

Li Baotian readily agreed.

He immediately called an emergency meeting for the entire station.

He repeatedly demanded.

That all personnel treat this matter as the current "Number One Priority."

Absolute secrecy!

Expedite and accelerate, handle this as a special case!

He even hinted.

That the Great Leader above was waiting for news!

The registration officer handling the task.

Panicked!

He frantically accessed the database to search for relevant information.

In less than half an hour,

the registration officer nervously came in to report.

And handed Zhuo Wuyang's current address.

To Li Baotian.

Li Baotian respectfully copied it down again.

It was neat and tidy.

All written in meticulous standard script.

Holding the slip of paper.

He presented it to Chen Yang with both hands.

"Leader, this is the specific address. Please take a look!"

Chen Yang nodded.

"Good!"

He took the paper.

Chen Yang bid farewell and left.

Li Baotian enthusiastically escorted him to the door.

And personally arranged the best car.

And the most reliable driver.

Specifically to transport Chen Yang.

"Leader, if you need anything next time, please don't hesitate to instruct me."

Chen Yang nodded and smiled:

"Chief Li, you are very capable!"

"Thank you for your help this time!"

Li Baotian was so delighted that he beamed.

"It is my duty to cooperate with the Leader's work."

"I am truly honored!"

Being able to participate in a major confidential matter.

Serving the people and being loyal to the country!

As an old police officer, Li Baotian felt immense honor!

He was excited and proud!

Riding in the police station's car.

Chen Yang headed straight for the address on the slip of paper.

Li Baotian's eagerness.

Was unexpected for Chen Yang.

Yet also understandable.

It gave him a new appreciation for his consultant certificate.

It seemed.

Black Tiger hadn't lied.

This thing really was quite useful!

At the same time.

Chen Yang secretly reminded himself.

This certificate.

Should not be used lightly unless absolutely necessary!

Use privileges cautiously, and maintain a sense of reverence!

Caiyun City suburbs.

A typical farmhouse at the foot of the mountain.

The entrance was circled with stones, forming a small courtyard.

Chen Yang stood at the entrance.

After waiting a short while, no one came out.

"Excuse me, is anyone home?"

No one answered.

Chen Yang slowly walked in.

Crossing the courtyard.

There was a row of low stone houses, the outer walls crudely smeared with a layer of cement.

It looked very rough.

Walking through the doorway.

A strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine filled his nostrils.

Chen Yang was secretly alarmed!

Was there a patient here?

"Excuse me, is anyone home?"

Chen Yang called out again.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

A sound of an elderly person coughing came from the side room.

Subsequently.

A man around fifty years old, looking sickly.

And hunched over.

Slowly walked out of the room.

In the main hall.

There was a stove where medicine was being decocted.

The man walked over, seemingly preparing to drink the medicine.

Chen Yang quickly went over to help.

"Please sit down, I'll help you."

He poured the medicinal soup from the earthenware pot into a large bowl.

And presented it to the man.

The man looked at Chen Yang and reached out to take it.

A moment later.

The bowl of medicine was finished.

"Thank you! You are...?"

Chen Yang, slightly agitated, looked nervously at the man.

"Hello!"

"I came here looking for a relative."

"May I ask your esteemed surname? Is it 'Zhuo' from 'outstanding'?"

The old man nodded.

"That's right, this old man's surname is Zhuo, and my name is Zhuo Wuyang."

"I wonder if I am the person you are looking for?"

Chen Yang's face lit up with joy.

*Thud!*

He dropped to his knees!

"Uncle Zhuo, I finally found you!"

Zhuo Wuyang was very surprised.

He quickly reached out and pulled Chen Yang up.

"You are...?"

Chen Yang smiled and explained.

"Uncle Zhuo, my name is Chen Yang."

"My father is Chen Zhongshi, do you still remember him?"

A rare smile appeared on Zhuo Wuyang's pale face.

"You are... Brother Chen's son?"

"That lost child?"

Chen Yang nodded excitedly.

"Yes, Uncle Zhuo!"

"If it hadn't been for you back then, I wouldn't be here today."

"Thank you for saving my life!"

Chen Yang bowed his head again.

He was forcefully pulled up by Zhuo Wuyang.

Chen Yang was secretly startled!

Uncle Zhuo's strength is immense!

And he is still a patient!

Zhuo Wuyang's face also showed a slight emotional reaction.

Looking at Chen Yang's face.

It gradually overlapped with the face of Chen Zhongshi in his memory.

"Nephew, we haven't seen each other in so many years. How is your father?"

Chen Yang helped Zhuo Wuyang sit down.

"My father recently underwent surgery."

"But please don't worry."

"He is recovering well now and will be fully cured soon."

Zhuo Wuyang sighed.

"It's good that he's recovering. When you get old, health is the most important thing!"

Chen Yang immediately asked.

"Uncle Zhuo, how is your health?"

Zhuo Wuyang waved his hand.

"It's an old ailment; let's not talk about it."

He suddenly stared intently at Chen Yang.

"Xiao Chen, I see you possess cultivation. You have at least the strength of an Intermediate Soldier King, right?"

"My Brother Chen doesn't know martial arts."

"Did you... encounter some kind of fortunate chance?"

The situation was a bit sudden.

Chen Yang didn't know how to answer immediately.

As for his guess of Intermediate Soldier King.

That was correct.

Because Chen Yang's physique, after consuming the great strength pill, was indeed that of an Intermediate Soldier King.

The reason he could rival an Intermediate War General.

Was that he possessed Master Level Combat Technique, Star Plucking Hand, and Heaven-Treading Steps—these peak martial arts.

"Uncle, I..."

"I did have some fortunate encounters, but..."

Zhuo Wuyang smiled and interrupted him.

"Nephew, it's alright, I understand."

"If it's inconvenient for you to talk about it, then don't. I won't blame you."

Chen Yang bowed slightly, expressing his apology.

"Thank you for your understanding."

"Your eyesight is truly sharp!"

"Could it be... that you are also...?"

Zhuo Wuyang laughed heartily.

But it strained his chest and abdomen.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

His face flushed red, clearly suffering.

Chen Yang quickly stood up and gently patted his back.

After a long while.

Zhuo Wuyang finally caught his breath.

"Nephew, you are not an outsider, so there is no harm in telling you."

"Our Zhuo Family are not ordinary farmers."

"We are..."
