Chronicles of Celestial Origins

The man surnamed Zhou asked: "What's wrong with Senior Brother Zhang?"

Zhang Zifeng frowned and said: "I always feel that something is a little wrong, but what exactly is wrong? I couldn't think of it at the moment. The whole thing is weird."

"What's weird?"

Zhang Zifeng was speechless. After a long time, he slowly said: "If you think about it carefully, Zheng Wei met with them frequently, not just once. Since they met so many times, why do they still need to hand over secret documents? Isn't this unnecessary? Is there anything that can't be done? Face to face? You still have to exchange letters, as if you are deliberately leaving evidence?"

"Also, Junior Brother Wu has followed Zheng Wei before, and there is a Qi Refining disciple guarding outside the cave. Junior Brother Zhou, please see if this person is Tang Ning with a different appearance." Zhang Zifeng pulled out a portrait: "This is The image of the disciple outside the cave that Junior Brother Wu drew before."

The man surnamed Zhou took it and took a look: "Yes, that's him."

Zhang Zifeng said: "That's strange. Zheng Wei stayed in that cave for three whole days. Tangning stayed outside the cave for these three days. So who really met Zheng Wei?"

"With Tang Ning's identity, he is guarding the door. Unless the person inside is Tong Quan'an. If it were Tong Quan'an, Junior Brother Wu might have been discovered long ago. Since he found someone following him, how could Zheng Wei dare to return to the sect and act as if nothing had happened? to meet again?”

"In addition, why is this Jiang Yuhuan there? There has always been a clear division of labor among the various departments of Xuanmen, and each department performs its own duties. Tangning is from the Intelligence Department, so it is natural for him to keep in touch with Zheng Wei."

"But Jiang Yuhuan is from the Forbidden Secret Department, why is he joining in the fun? Even if he wants to contact Zheng Wei, it doesn't take two people."

"For such a high-level detailed work, if one more person knows the identity, the risk of exposure will increase. Why would a person from the Forbidden Secret Department get involved in intelligence matters? Isn't it strange?"

"Furthermore, what happened to Zhang Qian's death? Who was responsible for the trouble in the Han family's gambling house? We previously inferred that it was the work of a spy who sneaked in, so the spy is Tang Ning. Why did he do this?"

"Unless Zhang Qian's death and the Han Family Gambling House had nothing to do with him, these are all coincidences, but is this possible?"

"Let's go over it again. Zhang Qian was killed by an unknown person, someone caused trouble in the Han family's gambling house, and then Zheng Wei left the sect to deal with the Han family's gambling house, and then met Tangning at Mingxia Peak."

"It all seems like a line. The monk who caused trouble in the Han Family Gambling House is at the ninth level of Qi Refining. The person Tang Ning is pretending to be is also at the ninth level of Qi Refining. The Han Family Gambling House is under the jurisdiction of Zheng Wei."

"Do you think there can be such a coincidence in this world?"

The man surnamed Zhou muttered: "We can connect Tang Ning with the people who caused trouble in the Han Family Gambling House. So, is his purpose in causing trouble in the gambling house to contact Zheng Wei? After all, their contact channel was just destroyed by us. He This is a way to get back in touch with Zheng Wei. This may be their emergency contact plan."

"Using this method to regain contact?" Zhang Zifeng pondered: "It's not impossible."

The man surnamed Zhou then said: "There is another point that can be proved. After Zheng Wei received help from the Han family, he only went to the gambling house once, and there was no news after that. It means that he already knew who the people in the gambling house were, otherwise Will definitely continue to investigate.”

Zhang Zifeng pondered: "If they really got in touch through this method, then why did they meet frequently one after another after the first time? Since Zheng Wei knew that the news was leaked, he would definitely be on guard, so how could he dare to enter and leave the sect many times? It’s unreasonable to stay there for several days.”

"Everything about this matter is weird. I want to think about the key to it carefully."

The man surnamed Zhou said: "We saw with our own eyes that he took the secret message from Tang Ning and resisted arrest. It is a definite fact that he colluded with Xuanmen. What else does Senior Brother Zhang have to worry about?"

"There are too many doubts about this matter. I suspect it may be a trap." Zhang Zifeng said slowly.

He has always been aloof from the whole incident, controlling the progress of the matter from a cold-eyed perspective. As the saying goes, the authorities are blind to the observer. Precisely because he was not directly involved in this matter, he noticed a hint of strangeness from various unusual signs.

As soon as he finished speaking, the storage bag on his waist trembled. Zhang Zifeng took out the array disk and fiddled with it a little. A talisman floated into the room and was taken into his hand with a wave of his hand. His spiritual consciousness was injected into it, and a voice sounded in his mind.

"Who is it?" asked the man surnamed Zhou.

"Junior brother Luo is back." Zhang Zifeng said.

Not long after, a man came in from the outside. He was slightly happy when he saw the man surnamed Zhou. The two of them were brothers in distress. They both fled in embarrassment. Now that they are able to meet each other alive, they both feel like they are surviving after a disaster.

"Senior Brother Zhou is indeed a disciple of Master Hou, a leader in the Corpse Puppet Sect, and he was able to escape from Jiang Yuhuan. I saw him chasing after you, and I was worried that you would be killed!"

The man surnamed Zhou smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I risked my life to escape, but Junior Brother Luo is full of energy and high-spirited. He seems to have spent no effort. Didn't Tangning chase you?"

The man surnamed Luo said: "He didn't chase me. He turned around to deal with Senior Brother Wu and Senior Brother Zhang. They must have... Hey! The most hateful thing is this bastard Zheng Wei. If I meet him again next time, I will definitely take action. Thief, I hate you so much.”

Zhang Zifeng said: "Junior Brother Luo, do you think Zheng Wei deliberately led our people there?"

The man surnamed Luo frowned and said: "It's hard to tell. Qian Yizong sent out two good men, who were just waiting for us to show up. But it doesn't seem to make sense to say that they made a special trip to ambush us. What if we A large number of people were dispatched, or the masters above were invited, so wouldn't they have fallen into a trap?"

"I think it might be unintentional or a mistake. For the sake of safety, the Qian Yizong sent Tang Ning to contact him, and then asked Jiang Yuhuan to take care of him. It happened that we were following Zheng Wei, so he handed over Hands on."

The man surnamed Zhou said: "I was discussing this matter with Senior Brother Zhang just now. Senior Brother Zhang thinks that this matter may be a trap, so Zheng Wei may not be a Xuanmen craftsman."

The man surnamed Luo was stunned for a moment and said in disbelief: "How is this possible? It's not Xuanmen's secret work. Why did he meet with Xuanmen disciples in such a hidden place in private? Not to mention that he, Tang Ning and Jiang Yuhuan expressed their anger at the same time and fought against each other. The surveillance team arrested the murders of Senior Brother Wu, Senior Brother Sun, and Senior Brother Zhang, which were directly related to him."

Zhang Zifeng said thoughtfully: "I just think this thing is too weird and inconsistent with common sense. There must be a monster when something is abnormal. There must be something behind it that we don't know."

The man surnamed Luo asked: "Something is abnormal. What is abnormal?"

Zhang Zifeng restated what he had just concluded.

The man surnamed Luo said: "These are just casual guesses. They may meet frequently for important matters. Why is this surprising? Although Jiang Yuhuan is not in the intelligence department, he is also a disciple of the Qianyi Sect and is highly valued by the top management. Please take care of it. What's weird about Tang Ning?"

"We saw with our own eyes that he met with Tangning in private, exchanged information, and jointly fought against the Supervisory Team. They both got the stolen goods. Isn't that enough to prove that he is a mysterious worker?"

Zhang Zifeng was silent for a while and said: "Junior brother Zhou, go and inquire about Zheng Wei and see if he has gone to work for Yizong? I want to report this matter to the master."

"Okay." The man named Zhou responded.

The three of them left the cave and each turned into light and left.

………………

Qian Yizong, Xuanhua Peak, inside the cave.

Zheng Wei sat cross-legged on the futon with his eyes closed. Footsteps came from outside. He opened his eyes, and a knock on the door immediately sounded.

"Come in."

A handsome-looking man pushed open the door and entered with a slight smile on his face. It was Tang Ning.

Zheng Wei couldn't help but change his face slightly when he saw him. He could smile and pretend to be nonchalant in front of others, but in front of the culprit who framed him and ended up in this situation, he really couldn't laugh and talk freely.

"How's it going? It's not bad here!" Tang Ning sat down without waiting for his invitation.

Zheng Wei said coldly: "What do you think! Isn't this all thanks to you? The fish in the pond and the bird in the cage, it's not up to you to decide whether it's good or not."

Tangning smiled slightly and said, "Don't be so resentful. It's not good if others find out. Some people want to be a caged bird but can't. Even if they lose their freedom, they can at least save their lives, right?"

Zheng Wei's pupils shrank when he heard what he said: "When are you going to kill me?"

"It depends on your own wishes. When do you want to die?"

"What if I don't want to die?" Zheng Wei's voice was low, like a wounded beast.

"Then you don't have to die."

Zheng Wei was stunned: "Can you represent Qian Yizong?"

"I came to talk to you on the order of the master, what do you think?"

"What do you need me to do?" Zheng Wei knew that he was a piece of cake now and had no capital to negotiate. Qian Yizong must need him if he keeps him.

"As long as you are obedient, you will always be a disciple of the Qianyi Sect. You know the rules of this sect and will not kill a disciple for no reason. Everything you deserve is here." Tang Ning Pointing to the surrounding stone walls: "This is your palace."

"Is that all?" Zheng Wei was slightly startled. He originally thought that they had some important things that needed to be done by themselves, but he didn't expect that it was just that. It was beyond his expectation.

Tangning nodded and said, "That's all. If you are not satisfied with this place, you can change it, or renovate it, decorate it with pavilions, pavilions, gardens and pavilions. You have all the control here, but …”

"Just here, outside this cave, there is hell outside. As long as you take half a step out of here, you no longer have the identity of a sect disciple, do you understand?"
