Chapter Sixty-Four: Great Merit Beckons
Han Songlei opened the chains of the cell, and Zhou An and Gao Hong walked in and stopped a few steps away from Geng Qiunian.
Geng Qiunian, who was seriously injured, was lying on the ground, his head could still move, because Zhou An didn't remove his cervical vertebrae, and he would die if he was removed, so he could raise his head, but he couldn't lift it high, and he could barely see Zhou An's calves.
"Lao Gao, do you want to judge him?" Zhou An looked at Geng Qiunian and asked.
"No, I don't." Gao Hong said, "Geng Qiunian's seniority is even higher than the contemporary Pure Land Sect Demon Venerable and Our Lady, he is an important promoter of the revival of the Pure Land Sect in modern times, and now the Pure Land Sect has such a momentum, which has a lot to do with him...... What else can you expect him to say? ”
Gao Hong knows Geng Qiunian very well!
Geng Qiunian, who is over seventy years old, was famous in the rivers and lakes as early as fifty years ago, until now, he has changed from a young leader to a white-haired old man today, and his reputation in the rivers and lakes is not as good as those Tiangang Realm who can be called grandmasters, and he was even once considered the first person in the Tiangang Realm, ranking first in the list of rivers and lakes.
The Pure Land Sect has been inherited for thousands of years, but in fact it has not always been so powerful, and many times it has even been almost broken, especially the one four hundred years ago, which was at the end of the previous dynasty, and the world was in turmoil, and the Pure Land Religion was almost destroyed in that turmoil that lasted for decades.
It was not until decades after the founding of the Eastern Qian Dynasty that the Pure Land religion revived.
But in the martial arts catastrophe more than a hundred years ago, the Pure Land Sect almost collapsed.
In the past 100 years, in the first 50 years, the Pure Land Sect also developed tepidly, until the Pure Land Sect appeared "Five Demon Shaozun", the so-called "Five Demon Shaozun", that is, the five Pure Land Sect Shaozun whose strength is perfect, because they all have the strength to compete for the position of the Demon Zun, and they are all ruthless and troublesome people, so they are called the Five Demon Shaozun.
This Geng Qiunian was one of the former Five Demon Shaozun, and he was the youngest of the Five Demon Shaozun at that time.
According to legend, he was only twenty-six years old when he was perfected!
He also competed for the position of Qinglian Demon Venerable, but unfortunately failed, and lost to the master of the contemporary Pure Land Sect Demon Venerable, and then he was the left protector of the Pure Land Sect, and he has been until today.
The current Pure Land Religion can be said to have developed in the last 50 years, and this Geng Qiu year has made great contributions!
Such a person, if you want to expect him to betray the Pure Land Sect, it is impossible!
He is so old, he has never seen any strong winds and waves, and it can be said that there is no point in extorting confessions by torture.
Therefore, Gao Hong couldn't even raise his mind to interrogate him!
If the left protectors of the Pure Land Sect are not loyal enough, then the Pure Land Sect will not be able to have the current scale.
"If you don't try it, then our family will do it!" Zhou An said.
He didn't have any nonsense with Geng Qiunian, he didn't say a word, I saw him take a step forward, put his hands together, and slapped it, pressing it on Geng Qiunian's head with light.
Soul Knowing!
Zhou An closed his eyes, and scenes quickly flashed in his mind.
Because he didn't have a deep enough grasp of soul knowledge, Zhou An didn't have many memories of seeing Geng Qiunian, but all of them were important or impressive by Geng Qiunian...... This is also a very large number of memory images, because Geng Qiu is too old, in his seventies, and he has experienced too many things in his life.
After a long cup of tea, Zhou An even felt a little tired mentally, and he finished reading Geng Qiunian's important memories.
Geng Qiunian had no accident and became a fool.
Zhou An took his hand away, but closed his eyes for a long time before he slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were glowing.
Sure enough, there was an unexpected gain, he thought that by finding evidence of the collusion between the Pure Land Sect and Li Hubiao, he would lead to the truth that Wu Xukuan was behind the scenes, but Zhou An, who had read Geng Qiunian's memory, knew that he didn't need it!
"How?" Gao Hong turned his head and asked.
"He's seen Gu Huaiyong!" The corners of Zhou An's mouth turned up, "Two days ago, he secretly sneaked into the palace and met Gu Huaiyong!" It's really a master of art who is bold, and he dares to venture into the palace during this period......"
Since Princess Yunjing was assassinated, the defense level in the palace has increased by more than one notch.
That's why Zhou An exclaimed that "the artist is bold"!
"Gu Huaiyong ......" Gao Hong whispered, but he was not surprised, Gu Huaiyong was involved in the rebellion, he was clear.
"He didn't just see Gu Huaiyong." Zhou An said again, looking at Gao Hong, "He also met Wu Xukuan in person!" Just yesterday! This was really unexpected by Zhou An, Wu Xukuan had never been directly connected with the Pure Land Sect, and he also understood the consequences of his collusion with the Pure Land Sect if the people of the rivers and lakes knew.
But yesterday, Geng Qiunian and Wu Xukuan met!
And from Geng Qiunian's memory, it can be known that this is not the first time Geng Qiunian has met with Wu Xukuan to assassinate the princess, nor is it the first time that the Pure Land Sect has done things for Wu Xukuan!
Over the years, Wu Xukuan has eradicated dissidents, and the Pure Land Sect has made no less efforts!
Mainly for those stubborn people who are far away from the emperor of the sky, although Wu Xukuan has the power of the world, but many people, he is not easy to move, the bright ones can't come to the dark, and the bright ones can't convict them and destroy their homes, so they let people kill their whole family and blame the rivers and lakes!
Maybe it's because the assassination of Princess Yunjing is too big, so Wu Xukuan didn't directly find the Pure Land Sect this time, but asked King Yunsu to contact the Pure Land Sect, after all, if a local official is exterminated, it won't be too big a wave in the entire Dongqian, but if Princess Yunjing is assassinated, it will cause a sensation in the world and the rivers and lakes!
Different influences produce different effects.
What's more critical is that Wu Xukuan used to ask the Pure Land Sect to help him eradicate dissidents and assassinate local officials, although it was also a heinous crime, but it was only a pervert, and this time he asked the Pure Land Sect to assassinate the princess, but it was tantamount to complicity in rebellion!
The people of the rivers and lakes don't care about the court, whoever sits on the country can do it, but the Pure Land Sect can't!
And Wu Xukuan colluded with the Pure Land Sect and assassinated Princess Yunjing, this conspiracy is enough to put the righteous people in the rivers and lakes in danger, because this incident shows that the Pure Land Sect is helping Wu Xukuan to seize the country, if Wu Xukuan succeeds, the Pure Land Sect may even turn from dark to light, with the support of the imperial court, the Pure Land Sect will see the hell if it does not wash the rivers and lakes with blood!
This matter is too important for the people of the rivers and lakes!
Therefore, Wu Xukuan did not dare to contact the Pure Land Sect directly this time, but went around the bend.
He was afraid that this would be known!
Knowing the consequences, not only will the people of the rivers and lakes assassinate him recklessly, but even the entire rivers and lakes may oppose him becoming the emperor! The resistance to his rebellion will also increase!
The consequences are very serious!
"Is there any evidence?" Gao Hong asked a crucial question.
"Yes!" Zhou An nodded heavily, and said: "Not only this time, Wu Xukuan also colluded with the Pure Land Sect in the past, allowing him to assassinate local officials, and even feudal officials!" Not only did they exchange letters, but Wu Xukuan even gave the Pure Land Sect a token that could facilitate things, so that cronies in the far south could cooperate with the Pure Land Sect. ”
Gao Hong's spirit was shocked, there is evidence! The evidence that the empress needs most is here!
"Where is the evidence? Is it easy to take? Gao Hong asked hurriedly.
"Those letters and tokens were all hidden by Geng Qiunian, not in Qianjing, but in Zhongzhou!" Zhou An lowered his voice as he spoke, leaning closer to Gao Hong, "It's ......"
……
Not long after, Zhou An hurriedly walked out of the prison and went straight to the Inner Qianwu Palace.
His steps seemed to be a little lighter than ever!
Because he has seen that great merit is beckoning to him.
