When I was a Taoist

Chapter 724 What do you think

To be honest, I don't want to believe anything Zhou Jun said now.But the only thing that surprised me was that when Zhou Jun first saw the ruined ice cellar, the anger on his face and hostility on his body seemed real, and there was no feeling of concealment at all.

Seeing that I didn't speak, Zhou Jun threw away the cigarette butt and lit another, and said with a wry smile: "I know that you won't believe anything I say now, so I can tell you something you doubt. You should have found out , the rest of the people are from my faction, I don’t need to hide it from you. As you can imagine, the Nancheng Branch was divided into two factions, one led by me, and the other consisted of the elder and the second led by the elders."

"Enough is enough, they are the ones who are loyal to senior Shangguan, don't justify your actions!" I snorted, my eyes were full of anger.

Zhou Jun didn't seem to expect my reaction to be so strong, he was stunned with a cigarette in his mouth, and he didn't even notice that the butt of the cigarette was burned.Finally, he smiled miserably and said: "Brother Dazhi, you misunderstood me again. You are not in the Nancheng branch, so you don't know the situation here. The elders and the others have long been disloyal to Lord Shangguan, and even I don't know what they follow. Who is it. No matter how I try to stop them, the divisions are getting worse and worse, and I can't do anything about it in the end. You think they are all loyal followers of Lord Shangguan, but you are wrong!"

I stared at Zhou Jun's eyes for a long time, and found that his eyes did not dodge when he said these words.After a moment of silence, I shook my head and sneered: "Now that they are all dead, you can say whatever you want, do you think I will believe it? But I want to ask you, since you said they are not followers of Lord Shangguan, then Why did they die?"

"I don't know either. But I think there is a conspiracy here, maybe it is trying to stir up conflicts between us and make the Nancheng Branch completely fall apart!"

In fact, Zhou Jun's explanation is also the thought that flashed in my mind just now.Even if the Great Elder really took refuge in someone else, only the Great Elder, the Second Elder, and Zhou Jun would know about this news.In the eyes of others, they were still followers of Shangguanmu, and being killed meant that Shangguanmu's enemies were killing the grass.

It goes without saying that Shangguanmu's only mortal enemy in the Taoist Association, everyone knows who it is.

Thinking of this, I'm in a cold sweat. If I make a wrong judgment, not only will I not be able to catch the mastermind behind the scenes, but I will also stir up the fuse that will cause the Tao to divide!
Taking a deep breath and forcing myself to calm down, I looked at Zhou Jun and asked, "There is another question, the third elder belongs to you, why would he die too? Could it be that the black hand behind the scenes started massacring people here indiscriminately?"

This time, instead, Zhou Jun was silent.After a long time, he sighed and said: "Brother Dazhi, even I don't know much about some things, and I really didn't lie to you. Don't you really want to know why I follow the third elder? I'll tell you right now." You, because I also want to know the answer to this question. In the past, the third elder was indeed on my side, but I gradually discovered that his whereabouts are a bit secretive. After staring at him for a long time, I found this opportunity. , and the people involved in this farce. As a result, we all saw it, and the other party killed the third elder to silence us, and our clues were all cut off."

Hearing this, I sneered: "You mean, here you are a blinded person like me, and you want to find out the truth. Everyone's death has nothing to do with you?"

Zhou Jun nodded, and said solemnly: "Believe it or not, I have not lied to you, and I want to know the truth of this matter more than you. I admit that after Lord Shangguan disappeared, I wanted to I provoked the main beam here alone, but I never thought of harming them, let alone blowing up the ice cellar!"

Zhou Jun's explanation seems to be reasonable, but there is no doubt that he took the lead in dividing the branch, and I don't know whether the person behind him is Elder Hei, let alone whether Elder Hei has anything to do with this matter.There are still too few clues now, so it is impossible for me to trust him so gullibly based on his few words.

"You said you didn't know the identity of the mysterious man, so I would like to ask you, why did you save him after he killed the third elder?" I stared at Zhou Jun and asked.

Zhou Jun was very surprised when he heard this, and asked back: "When did I save the third elder? Although I was hiding not far away when you shot, I definitely didn't save him!"

"You mean, you didn't put the Golden Blade Talisman?" I was dubious.

"That's right! I, Zhou Jun, swear to the sky, I am definitely not the one who stopped you today!" Zhou Jun said seriously.

I can't tell if he's hiding it or not, but it's always good to prepare for the worst.Even if Zhou Jun did not do what happened today, it can only mean that the accomplice of the mysterious man saved him, and it is very likely that it is the hidden traitor around us!
I rubbed my head and said, "I won't let go of this matter today. I have my own way to investigate clearly. I hope you didn't lie to me."

After finishing speaking, I called Shang Fanchen and Erha back to the room, and told them what Zhou Jun had said.Fan Chen curled his lips after listening, and said with disdain on his face: "You believe this guy's words so much. May I ask who else in the whole branch can stop you so easily besides him?"

"That's what I said, but it doesn't rule out that it was the mysterious man's own companion who came to the rescue. Maybe he is not in the branch."

I sighed, then looked at Erha, and asked, "What do you think?"

Erha spread his hands and said, "You can't figure it out, and I have no idea. But Zhou Jun's expression when he saw the ice cellar turned into ruins for the first time was true, and he shouldn't have faked it. He didn't even think about the ice cellar. will be blown up."

"That's right, so I will negotiate with him just now." I nodded and continued: "Zhou Jun has nothing to do with the destruction of the ice cellar. This is all the means of the mysterious person. It should be to punish and warn me. Let people stare at me." He, if Zhou Jun really knew the mysterious person, he would definitely ask him about blowing up the ice cellar!"

Both Fanchen and Erha agreed with this decision, but they disagreed on who to choose to follow.Because they suspected that there was a traitor around them before, Fanchen and Erha naturally suspected Wang Zhengyi.But I shook my head, and said firmly: "It's not necessary to doubt someone, but not to be suspicious of someone. I didn't doubt him at the beginning, and it's the same now. The two of you have too big a goal, so let him go."

In fact, I chose Wang Zhengyi, and I also wanted to test whether he was the traitor.But I didn't expect it to become one of my biggest mistakes in South City.
