Chapter 171: Who Sent the Key?
Xiao Zhang was already surprised by Zhang Guangzong's abnormal behavior, and at this moment, he looked at the key in his hand in a daze, and he was even more shocked. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
He felt more and more that things were too weird, even if Zhang Guangzong had already guessed that he was trying to break into the Heavenly Soul Palace, he shouldn't have been so bold to hand over the key to the Heavenly Soul Palace!
Could it be that Zhang Guangzong was instructed by someone?
So, who could be behind Zhang Guangzong? Who has so much power to instruct Zhang Guangzong to do this? And what is the purpose of that person?
Moreover, what worried Xiao Zhang even more was that the person behind Zhang Guangzong actually saw that he was trying to enter the Heavenly Soul Palace, so did that person already know that his purpose was to get the green nine-colored deer grass? If so, why did that person help him?
Rubbing his eyebrows and enduring his headache, Xiao Zhang concentrated on thinking, and suddenly, he remembered a strange thing, that is, why did the head of the sect suddenly order to strictly guard the Heavenly Soul Palace?
Thinking of this, Xiao Zhang thought of an extremely terrifying possibility, perhaps the head of the sect had expected him to try to break into the Heavenly Soul Hall and look for the nine-colored deer grass!
If that's the case, then the head of the house is really terrible!
Moreover, this possibility can also be justified from a logical point of view, because, even if the head of the sect has learned of Xiao Zhang's intentions, he will not directly arrest Xiao Zhang, after all, he is the head of a faction, and the punishment of the disciples in the sect needs to have evidence that can convince the public.
Therefore, Xiao Zhang guessed that the person behind Zhang Guangzong might be the head of the house. The head instructed Zhang Guangzong to send the key to the Heavenly Soul Palace, and at the same time sent the four protectors to strictly guard the Heavenly Soul Palace, just so that Xiao Zhang could throw himself into the net, and then he could catch it.
If all the speculations are true, then it will be difficult for Xiao Zhang to get mixed up in the Heavenly Soul Sect, and it is not a good thing to be targeted by the master.
At this moment, Xiao Zhang almost made a decision to leave the Heavenly Soul Sect as soon as possible. But after thinking about it for a long time, he still decided to stay, because the great revenge has not been avenged, he must not leave, and all the adventures are worth it for revenge.
…………
The next day, the soul of Mount Tai, the head of the study.
The head of the sect Zuo Dongling looked at the four protectors with an angry face, because the four protectors failed to catch the thief who tried to break into the Heavenly Soul Hall last night, the gentle and steady head on weekdays was furious, and the four protectors bowed their heads and were silent, ashamed.
"The four of you are already a serious dereliction of duty!" Zuo Dongling said angrily, "The four great protectors of the Fa, and the help of many disciples, even let the thief escape, this seat is ashamed of you!"
The four Dharma protectors were red-faced and speechless.
Zuo Dongling continued: "If it is peaceful today, the four of you have been out of battle for a long time, I ordered you to guard the Heavenly Soul Palace, and at the same time convened a meeting of high-level figures in the faction late at night, and did not let them go after hearing the horn of the fairy cow, just to see how much of your ability is left, but you are too disappointing to this seat!"
The four protectors were so ashamed that they were embarrassed, and immediately knelt down and said, "My subordinates are derelict in their duties, please punish the master!"
"Can you catch that thief by punishing you?" Zuo Dongling was furious, and released a powerful momentum from his body, and flew the four protectors upside down and out of the study.
The four protectors didn't dare to resist at all, but let themselves fall to the ground hard, spitting blood from their mouths, and they immediately got up and knelt outside the door, not daring to raise their heads.
After a long time, Zuo Dongling's anger gradually subsided, and he softened his tone and said: "You guys go back, if this kind of situation happens again in the future, this seat will definitely punish you severely!"
The four protectors did not dare to disobey, and immediately kowtowed heavily, and then left the door of the study.
Zuo Dongling watched the four protectors leave, his face returned to his previous calm and steady, and in his incomparably deep eyes, there was a trace of undetectable deep meaning.
"Someone!" Zuo Dong Lingwei shouted.
Immediately, one of the guards walked into the study, bowed down and asked, "What do you command?"
Zuo Dongling said: "Call Huang Shan, this seat has a task to explain." ”
The guards immediately took the order, and a moment later, Huang Shan hurried in.
Zuo Dongling asked directly: "Huang Shan, have you heard that there were thieves who wanted to break into the Heavenly Soul Hall last night?"
Huang Shan nodded and said, "The disciple heard about it, and it is said that the thief was so bold that he dared to ignore the guards of the four protectors of the Dharma and risk his life, but in the end, he escaped by luck. ”
Zuo Dongling sighed and said, "The four Dharma Protectors have disappointed this seat too much, so this seat is going to hand over this important task to you, can you be sure to catch that thief?"
Huang Shan said without hesitation: "The disciple will definitely live up to the master's trust, and he will definitely catch that thief!"
Zuo Dongling nodded, and a look of relief appeared on his face: "Okay, then you go back and prepare, since the thief dares to risk his life, he must have a firm purpose, and he will definitely come." ”
Huang Shan nodded heavily, and then was about to leave, but he turned around again and couldn't help but ask, "Forgive the disciple's words, can the disciple know why the Heavenly Soul Hall was temporarily closed, and why did the thief break into the Heavenly Soul Palace?"
Hearing this, Zuo Dongling's face suddenly darkened, and there was a faint anger in his eyes.
Huang Shan knew that he was speechless, and immediately bowed down and said, "Master atoned for his sins, it was the disciple who talked too much." After speaking, he hurried out of the master's study.
Back at his residence, Huang Shan immediately sent someone to find Sun Zhiyuan, Sun Zhiyuan was quite scheming, and Huang Shan often discussed with him when he encountered tricky things.
Sun Zhiyuan soon arrived, and before Huang Shan could speak, Sun Zhiyuan asked directly, "I wonder if Senior Brother wants to tell me about the thief last night?"
Huang Shan was not surprised, he knew that Sun Zhiyuan knew him too well, and he could even say that it was a roundworm in his stomach.
Huang Shan nodded and said, "It's exactly this matter, I don't know what the third brother thinks?"
Sun Zhiyuan thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Since that thief dares to break into the Heavenly Soul Hall with his own risk, it means that there must be something in the Heavenly Soul Hall that he desperately wants. And the master of the head sent the four protectors to guard the Heavenly Soul Hall in advance, which shows that the master had already expected that there would be thieves entering the Heavenly Soul Palace, but we didn't know what tempting things were hidden in the Heavenly Soul Palace?"
Huang Shan frowned and said, "I'm also thinking about this, this matter looks like the master deliberately set up a bait to lure the thief to come, but unexpectedly, the four protectors of the Dharma were not in a good position, and they let the thief escape." Therefore, Master entrusted me with this important task. ”
Sun Zhiyuan smiled gloomily and said, "Don't hide it from Senior Brother, I already have a suspicious target for that thief." ”
Huang Shan's eyes lit up and asked, "Who do you suspect?"
Sun Zhiyuan said with a smile: "Last night, I went to Xiao Zhang's residence again to observe the situation, and when I went, Xiao Zhang happened to be not in the residence, and the magic crystal showed that there were only his two protectors in the residence. It is worth noting that the time I went there should be the time when the thief broke into the Heavenly Soul Palace. ”
Huang Shan's expression froze: "You mean, you suspect that the thief is Xiao Zhang? However, could it be that Xiao Zhang rushed to Heavenly Soul Peak after hearing the horn of the Immortal Ox?"
Sun Zhiyuan shook his head and said, "When I went, the horn of the fairy cow had not yet sounded. ”
Huang Shan's face suddenly appeared with resentment, and said: "I have long seen that Xiao Zhang is by no means a good type, we can just take this opportunity to get rid of Xiao Zhang in one fell swoop!"
Sun Zhiyuan said with a smile: "I will set a trap and wait for Xiao Zhang to throw himself into the net." ”
…………
Because last night was too exhausting and skillful, the sky was already bright, and Xiao Zhang was still sleeping with his head covered, until Zhang Guangzong hurriedly broke into his bedroom.
"Senior Brother Xiao, it's not good! It's not good!" Zhang Guangzong was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, jumping and screaming.
Xiao Zhang reluctantly woke up from his dream, looked at Zhang Guangzong sleepily, and asked, "Senior Brother Zhang, what happened? ”
Zhang Guangzong was already so anxious that he was about to cry: "Senior Brother Xiao, I actually lost the key to the Heavenly Soul Palace, I don't know if you have seen it?"
Hearing this, Xiao Zhang suddenly shuddered all over! Yesterday he was still wondering why Zhang Guangzong took the initiative to give him the key to the Heavenly Soul Palace, but he didn't expect that today Zhang Guangzong actually said that the key was lost!
This is strange, which play is Zhang Guangzong playing?
However, at this moment, it seems that Zhang Guangzong has regained his previous temperament, and he is no longer the calm and wise state of yesterday, and Zhang Guangzong at this moment is the original Zhang Guangzong.
So......
If Zhang Guangzong wasn't acting, then he sandwiched the key of the Heavenly Soul Hall in the grass yesterday, maybe it wasn't his intention, and it was definitely not that he accidentally hid the key in the grass, because he would definitely take care of such an important thing, and there would never be a mistake.
Xiao Zhang suddenly thought of a possibility, was Zhang Guangzong yesterday controlled by someone using some kind of method?
