Tian Yuan Xian Ji

Chapter 927 Arrest ([-])

"Uncle, what mystery is in Tangning's files?"

"The file shows that his spiritual root aptitude is only below average, think about it carefully."

Xie Xuan frowned: "Low-medium spiritual root aptitude? Then how did he pass the selection to join this sect? Did Fang Dasheng find him a door?"

"Recruitment is in charge of the department inspector. Do you think Fang Dasheng has the ability?"

"Although Inspector Duan is in charge of the matter, he probably won't handle such trivial matters personally. At most, he will assign them to his cronies. Could it be that Fang Dasheng has left this relationship?"

"Even if the matter was not handled by Inspector Duan himself, the dossier must be submitted to him for his signature and signature. Do you think he will let the subordinates make decisions without even looking at it? A person with lower than average spiritual root qualifications appears On the file list, if it were you, wouldn't you have any doubts?"

"This..." Xie Xuan was speechless.

"You always think things are simple wishful thinking. If you don't change this habit, sooner or later you will suffer."

"What my uncle taught me is that my nephew will remember it." Xie Xuan said sincerely, "I never imagined that such a monk from a small sect in Xingang would have such a backer that he could get online with Inspector Duan."

"If that wasn't the case, how could Fang Dasheng spare no effort to help him choose the captain of the fifth team? A man like him who is old and cunning, has no benefits, and doesn't have enough benefits. Old acquaintances, how can you work so hard? If you had used a little more attention, you would have noticed the unusualness in it long ago."

"Yes, my nephew was negligent, but if Fang Dasheng wasn't the backer behind him, who would it be?"

"It's possible for anyone. It's not surprising for anyone. Before the situation becomes clear, all we have to do is wait and see. If Tangning has enough weight in this person's heart, then this time he will definitely show up to help him out."

"What if he doesn't show up?"

"That only shows that Tangning's weight is not enough. Then you can do whatever you want. Let He Lian test it out! We just need to watch from the sidelines."

"Yes, my nephew understands. Do I need to disclose this matter to Sima Teng? Let him operate it, and the effect may be better."

"Whatever you want, even if you don't say it, he will get the news soon."

Jingyuan Pavilion, Pingling Mountain, and inside the cave, Tang Ning was sitting cross-legged on the futon and was cultivating with his eyes closed. The storage bag around his waist shook for a while. He opened his eyes, took out the array disk, and took the talisman into his hand. The figure flashed and left the room.

Outside the thick fog, there are several men standing, the two leading ones are dressed in Taixuanzong costumes, and they are both Nascent Soul cultivators.

Tang Ning fell in front of him. Seeing this posture, he had a bad feeling in his heart. These were all disciples of the Guard Hall of the brigade. He had been to the first brigade so many times, so he naturally knew each other.

"Senior Brother Ma, Senior Brother Fan, I don't know why you came here?" Tangning was puzzled, but still pretending that nothing had happened, she gave a salute.

"Junior Brother Tang, under the order of Inspector He of the Headquarters, please go to the brigade for investigation." Ma Long flipped through his hands, took out a piece of paper and handed it to him.

But there was only a short sentence on it: Tang Ning, the acting captain of the fifth team, violated the sect's regulations and sent Ma Long, and Fan Zheng escorted him to the first team for investigation and interrogation.

Below is the signature and seal of He Lian, Inspector of the First Brigade.

"Dare to ask the two brothers, what did Tang do? Inspector He wants to detain me in the brigade."

The two looked at each other, and Ma Long said: "Someone reported that you killed and recruited monk Lin Quan privately, so Inspector He sent us to invite you back to the brigade for interrogation and investigation."

Tang Ning was slightly startled. He originally thought that there was something wrong with the team's affairs or the transfer of supplies, but he didn't expect that it was because of this matter that He Lian personally ordered the arrest of a mere recruited Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Seeing that he was silent, Fan Zhengcui said: "Inspector He told us to bring you back to the brigade immediately, Junior Brother Tang, please come with us!"

While speaking, the two of them moved their footsteps slightly, and they were already faintly forming a pincer attack on him.

"Are the two senior brothers planning to take coercive measures against me?" Tangning remained expressionless.

Fan Zheng said: "Junior Brother Tang, don't make things difficult for us, you have read the orders signed by Inspector He, and we are only following orders."

"The Imperial Order did not require you to force me to be escorted to the brigade. I am still the acting captain of the fifth team. Before I am officially convicted, even if Inspector He comes in person, he has no right to take coercive measures against me."

"Junior Brother Tang, I advise you to cooperate. We are inviting you to go now. If you insist on resisting, we will have to offend you. If there is too much disturbance in your team, it will not be good for you."

"I agree to go with you, but I have a request."

"Please say."

"There are a lot of personal belongings in my cave. Before I'm officially convicted, your people are not allowed to search at will. Otherwise, I won't be able to tell if something is missing."

The two looked at each other, and Fan Zheng nodded slightly: "Yes, I promise you, I won't search your cave."

"I need a stick of incense time to organize things."

"it is good."

Tangning said no more, turned around and went back to the cave, tidied up the rare and valuable things inside, and before it was time for a cup of tea, she returned to the crowd.

"Junior Brother Tang, please!" Ma Long stretched out his palm and made a gesture of please.

Tang Ning jumped up, and several people hurriedly followed. The group came to the deck of the Xuanling Ship, and Ma Long invited him to the cabin: "Junior Brother Tang, you can rest here at ease. When we arrive at Fengwei Mountain, we will take a rest." Let me know."

After finishing speaking, he left the room, and the stone door closed with a bang.

The Xuanling Ship soared into the sky, sailed out of the light curtain, and headed west quickly.

………………

In front of the meeting hall of Pingling Mountain, a lot of escaping lights shot towards one after another. The expressions of the people were different, and they were surprised and uncertain. The voices of whispering and discussing kept coming and going. In less than a quarter of an hour, dozens of monks from Pingling Mountain had gathered here.

"Senior Brother Yan, what happened?" Yang Qiushui asked with a frown as he looked at the many brigade disciples standing in two rows in front of the hall.

Yan Ming shook his head: "I don't know, judging by the posture, I'm afraid the visitor is not kind."

"The person who came is definitely not good, but the target should not be us, but someone else." Huang Qiansheng said leisurely.

"Junior brother Huang knows the inside story?" Yan Ming looked at him and asked.

"Isn't this obvious? If it's aimed at us, does it take such a big gesture? Unless you want to arrest us all, you just need to send a paper to Master Tang."

Xu Fan pondered: "What does Brother Huang mean?"

"Brothers, why bother pretending to be ignorant? You have been in the team for so many years. Don't you really know who is above Lin Quan? Uncle Tang killed him, and the people above are not willing to give up. Who is it for? , isn't it obvious?"

"So the rumors are true?"

"Looking at this posture, it must not be fake."

While several people were talking, the stone door of the main hall was pushed open with a creak, and a man with big ears came out from inside, and came straight to several people: "Junior Brother Yan Ming, Uncle Fan invites you in."

"Yes." Yan Ming replied, and entered the hall, the stone door was closed again, Fan Zheng sat on the main seat above the steps, and a disciple of Taixuanzong sat on the desks on the left and right sides below.

"Disciple pays homage to Uncle Fan." Yan Ming stepped forward and bowed in salute.

Fan Zheng said, "Do you know why we invited you here?"

"Disciple doesn't know."

"Yan Liang, you are the disciple who is in charge of the coordinator of Lingkuang. You have worked in the fifth team for many years. You have always kept yourself safe and loyal to the headquarters and the sect. I will not mingle with you. Today we are here to investigate Tangning's violation of the sect. The illegality of the regulations, to be precise, we have already grasped part of the facts of his crime, and the higher authorities ordered him to be detained in the brigade. After knowing all the facts, he will be escorted to the Zongmen and handed over to the three departments for trial and conviction. Now we need For your testimony, you must answer all the questions truthfully, otherwise you will know the consequences."

"Yes, the disciple must know everything."

Fan Zheng gave a slight nod to the man on the left below. The man turned over his hand and took out a dark green talisman to point it at him. The talisman emitted a faint light.

The man on the right took out the file paper and ink and started to record.

Fan Zheng interrogated: "Report your name and position."

"Yan Liang, a disciple of the Fifth Squadron of the First Brigade of the First Brigade of the Fifth Regiment of the Fourth Corps of the Qingwu Battalion."

"How long have you been with the Fifth Squad."

"One hundred and twelve years so far. How many principals have you worked with?"

"There is only one official one, and that is Uncle Jiang Xinquan, who has retired and returned to foster care."

"Talk about Tangning, the new acting captain! How much do you know about his crimes?"

"I don't know which aspect Master Uncle is referring to?"

"Everything, everything you know."

Yan Liang said in a deep voice: "Uncle Tang has only been in the headquarters for more than a year, and it has been less than half a year since he officially took over the affairs of the headquarters. This disciple has never met him before, so he is not very familiar with him. The illegal things he committed, disciple I really don't know."

"You really don't know?"

"Disciple doesn't know."

"Alright then! Let me remind you, is there a monk named Lin Quan among the monks recruited by the fifth team?"

"Yes."

"Where is he now?"

"He has been executed by Uncle Tang for violating the rules of the sect and stealing the elixir without permission."

"Did Tangning kill him, did you witness it with your own eyes?"

"Yes, at that time Uncle Tang called all the disciples of our team into the hall, interrogated who stole the elixir, and executed Lin Quan on the spot."

"How many people witnessed him killing Lin Quan at that time."

"A total of ten people, besides the disciples, there are also Yang Qiushui, Huang Qiansheng, Cheng Qian, Xu Fan and more than a dozen disciples from the Hall of Guards."

"Tell me in detail what happened at that time."

"Yes, the brigade was receiving supplies that day. In the storage room, an inspector discovered that a plant of elixir had been stolen in the stone box, so..." Yan Liang truthfully confessed the situation that day.
