Chapter 412 Killing someone with a borrowed knife (1)

Tangning took a look inside the storage bag and found that there was nothing missing. In the spirit beast bag, many rhinoceros ants were surrounding the queen in an orderly manner.

Recently, the queen ant has laid a new batch of ant eggs, and the rhinoceros ants are lying on the eggs to help them hatch.

Tang Ning put away his storage bag and spirit beast bag, sat cross-legged, swallowed the elixir, closed his eyes and refined his Qi, waiting for the disciples sent by the sect to assist him to arrive.

In Xushu Mountain, inside the blue light curtain, in the cave, Zheng Wei bowed down to the old man sitting cross-legged on a futon and saluted: "Master, what I learned when I went to the Han family was indeed done by a disciple of our sect. I just don't know who it is. We still need to know who it is." investigation."

The old man nodded: "I'll leave this matter to you! If you find it, give them an explanation. If you can't find it, forget it. Don't put too much effort into it, so as not to delay your practice."

"Yes, disciple, please leave." Zheng Wei responded, slowly exited, left his cave, and disappeared into the light.

A few miles away, outside another cave, a ray of light fell, revealing the figure of a man with a leopard head and ape arms. He waved his hand, and the talisman floated into the thick fog.

Soon, the thick fog dispersed, and the man walked straight into the main room. He bowed to Zhang Zifeng, who was sitting in the chair, and said, "Senior Brother Zhang, Zheng Wei is back."

"Have you found out? Where has he been these past few days?"

The man replied: "On October 24th, he left the sect."

"On October 25th, he arrived at the Han family's residence. Then he went to the Yuanxiu Peak Gambling House and stayed there for about half an hour."

"After he came out of Yuan Xiufeng Gambling House, there was no trace of him. I asked Han Juyuan, and he clearly said he would return to the sect."

"But on the twenty-sixth, twenty-seventh, and twenty-eighth, for three whole days, he seemed to have disappeared. No one knows where he went. He did not return to the sect until today."

Zhang Zifeng narrowed his eyes slightly: "He disappeared for three whole days. Why did he leave the sect this time?"

The man said: "Someone committed murder and robbed money at the Han family's Yuanxiufeng Gambling House. According to Han Juyuan, it was a disciple of our Youmei Sect who did it. So he reported the matter to Uncle Hu. Zheng Wei went to the Han family for this matter."

Zhang Zifeng said: "Tell me in detail who is causing trouble and how they know they are disciples of the Youmei Sect."

"Yes." The man responded, recounting the whole story.

"Is this Han Juyuan reliable? Will he inform him about our secret investigation of Zheng Wei?"

"I have already warned him. I don't think he is that bold, unless he and Zheng Wei are in the same group, and they are both secret agents of Xuanmen. I sent the first team of disciples to put the Han family under surveillance."

Zhang Zifeng thought for a long time: "Immediately check the various cities and towns in Chu State to see if there are Zheng Wei's business records. In addition, go to the disciples stationed abroad to find out whether Zheng Wei has been to them in the past three days."

"good."

"From now on, we must closely monitor Zheng Wei and be careful not to be discovered by him."

"Yes." The man responded: "If he leaves the sect again, do we need to follow him?"

"Don't act rashly, be more patient. If he is indeed a Xuanmen spy, we need to take a long-term view, follow the clues to find their contact information, and arrest the Xuanmen disciples who contacted them. Perhaps we can catch all the Xuanmen agents who have planted themselves inside us. Just solving a detail is not of much value.”

"clear."

In the Luoyun Mountains, at the Qianyi Sect, a ray of light shot out, revealing the figure of a tall and tall man.

He waved his hand and passed the talisman into the thick fog. After a while, a figure flashed out of the fog, and he saw that his eyebrows were relaxed, his face was fair, and he looked lazy. It was Jiang Yuhuan.

"Junior Brother Xu, why are you here? Does the leader have any orders?" Jiang Yuhuan asked. The man was Xu Mao, the direct subordinate of the leader, and he asked this question.

Xu Mao said: "Senior Brother Jiang, the master has called you in and is waiting for you!"

"The master summoned me? I don't know why?"

"I don't know either. I'm just here to call you. If there's nothing urgent, Senior Brother Jiang, let's go right now! We don't want the Headmaster to wait too long."

"good."

The two of them stood up from the light, and after a short walk, they arrived at Qianxing Hall.

In the hall, the leader Wei Xuande sat high on it.

The two men stepped forward and bowed.

Wei Xuande waved his hand and said to Xu Mao: "You go first!"

"Yes." Xu Mao retreated in response.

"Sit down! No need to be polite." Wei Xuande said.

"Yes." Jiang Yuhuan sat down as instructed: "I wonder what the master's instructions are for calling the disciples?"

"There is something you need to do. I think you should know Tangning from the Intelligence Department! He is currently carrying out a secret mission and needs manpower support. Junior Brother Tong recommended you to me. I have talked with Junior Brother Jiang about this matter. There is a certain risk, and I want to hear your own wishes.”

"As long as a disciple obeys orders, he will do his best."

Wei Xuande nodded and said: "Okay. This matter involves an insider who is lurking in the Youmei Sect, and he needs to go deep into the enemy's territory. I won't go into details about the specific matters. You are not from the Intelligence Department, and you don't need to know too much about the details of the insider's operations. ”

"Now that the entire plan has reached its most critical moment, Tangning may not be able to handle it alone, so we need the assistance of a loyal and capable disciple. Your mission is to assist him in completing the last part of this plan."

"yes."

"When you get to Junior Brother Tong, he will tell you what to do." Wei Xuande smiled: "By the way, before leaving the sect, don't forget to say hello to Junior Brother Jiang, so as not to worry about him. This guy! He is all old. so."

"Disciple resigns."

………………

At the Yingxia Mountain Camp, Tang Ning was sitting cross-legged in the wooden house. He heard a knock on the door. He stood up and opened the door of the wooden house. Standing outside was a fair-faced man. He was Wang Huan, the direct subordinate of the Secret Academy.

When Tang Ning saw him, she knew that a disciple from the sect had arrived to assist her: "Junior Brother Wang, what's the matter?"

"Senior Brother Tang, Uncle Tong invites you to come and discuss matters."

The two of them arrived at Tong Quan'an's residence one after another. Wang Huan stayed outside, while Tang Ning entered alone. In the house, besides Tong Quan'an, there was a man with a handsome face and bright eyes, none other than Jiang Yuhuan.

Tang Ning stepped forward and saluted: "Disciple has met Master Uncle."

Tong Quanan said: "Sit down! Jiang Yuhuan is here to assist you this time. Please tell him about the situation!"

"Yes." Tang Ning responded and briefly explained the matter: "I don't know how many people the Demon Sect will send. I was afraid that I was not capable enough, so I asked the sect for support. Now with the help of Senior Brother Jiang, things will be done."

Tong Quan'an said: "You should set off immediately and report any changes immediately."

"Yes." The two of them responded, left the room, and disappeared into light.

After traveling for a day, they arrived at the cave in Mingxia Mountain. Tang Ning said, "Senior Brother Jiang, all you need to do is hide in the dark and wait for the Demon Sect personnel to arrive. Watch my actions and start a sudden attack."

"Okay." Jiang Yuhuan said, forming a seal in his hand, and his figure gradually faded until he completely disappeared.

Tang Ning sat cross-legged, waiting quietly for the Demon Sect monks to arrive.

More than ten days passed by in a flash, and a ray of light fell outside the cave, revealing the figure of a man with a square mouth and a wide mouth. It was Zheng Wei.

Less than twenty days later, he couldn't wait to come. Since he got the yellow cloth, he studied it in his cave every day.

The more he studied, the more impatient he became, almost counting his days on his fingers, wishing he could get the second half of the yellow cloth immediately and find the place where the treasure was hidden.

So he rushed over before the agreed one-month deadline. Perhaps this person had already returned. He thought in his mind that he couldn't wait more than a day, so he left Xushu Mountain and came in a hurry.

Tang Ning heard a strange noise and went out to greet him. He treated him respectfully and addressed him as "senior".

"Where's your master! Is he back yet?" Zheng Wei asked

"The master has not returned yet."

"He hasn't come back yet?" Zheng Wei frowned: "Do you know where he usually goes?"

"I reported it to my senior last time. Master, he is looking for traces of my uncle everywhere. He has no fixed place, and I don't know where he will go."

"In that case, I'll wait for him here for a few days, and you can come with me."

"yes."

The two came to the main room. Zheng Wei flipped his hand, took out the yellow cloth, unfolded it and put it on the table: "You and your master have studied this picture for many years, and you must have grasped some clues. Please tell me, this What’s the secret of Zhang’s painting, and what do the two poems behind it mean?”

Tang Ning said: "Master regards the yellow cloth as a treasure and usually studies it alone. I have never seen the pictures on it, and Master will not tell me about it."

When Zheng Wei heard this, he couldn't help being angry and snorted: "That's unreasonable. Who are you masters and disciples? Your master asked you to find this yellow cloth, but he never even showed you the picture. If you find the picture, he won't tell you. Master. They are all treacherous people with different agendas.”

Tangning didn't answer.

"Go and guard the door!"

"Senior, what about the antidote?"

"Don't worry, I'll give it to you on the 30th."

"Yes." Tangning left the main room and stood guard in front of the cave.

Zheng Wei waited here for four whole days, but no one came, so he left and gave him a black elixir before leaving.

As he disappeared from the light, a figure slowly emerged. It was Jiang Yuhuan who was hiding aside: "The members of the Youmei Sect did not follow."

"Don't worry, give them some time."

……………

In the Xushu cave, Zhang Zifeng and a man with a leopard head and ape arms sat opposite each other.

"According to our investigation, Zheng Wei did not go to Fangshi in the days when he disappeared, and none of the disciples stationed abroad saw him. The day before yesterday, he went out again for unknown reasons." said the man with a leopard head and ape arms.

Zhang Zifeng asked: "How is the investigation of the Han family?"

"Zheng Wei has not left the cave since he returned last time. There is no further information about the Han family. This time he went out and did not go to the Han family."

"Inspection Team 7, what did they find out about Zhang Qian's murder?"

"No one was seen alive, no body was found dead. We only confirmed that he disappeared after meeting Lu Peng in Wangxichuan."

Zhang Zifeng frowned and said nothing.
