Chapter 104: The Secret of Entanglement
"Who are the three of them?" Li Luo's expression was very solemn, and the information provided by Zhuang Xian was too important.
Zhuang Xian's eyes flashed, and he seemed to be calculating the possible murderer in his heart.
"The first person, Yan Fei, the former third consul of Jiangcheng. The second person, Jiang Feng, the master of the Nine Lions Gate in Yi Province. These two people and my father got acquainted on a certain treasure hunt on the way, the three of them sympathized with each other, and they became confidants, which can be said to be friends of life and death, and my parents used to talk about it when they came to Xiangyang secretly!"
"What about the third person?" asked Li Luo.
"The third person is the current supreme consul of the Huaxia District, the Fire Demon King, he once instructed my father's cultivation, my father revered him very much, and silently regarded him as a master in his heart!" Zhuang Xian said this, with a faint sadness on his cold face. "In my understanding, there are only three people who don't know about my existence, but they are people from the bottom of my father's heart, and if one of these three people kills him, then he will be very sad and desperate!"
Li Luo thought for a moment, and quickly shook his head: "The possibility of the Fire Demon King is not very likely, he himself is a heaven-level powerhouse, if he was the one who killed your father in the first place, I am afraid that it will be one move quickly, and three or five moves if it is slow, how can your father have the opportunity to leave a message?"
"Then what clues did my father leave behind, can you tell me more about it?"
Li Luo thought about it, omitted Zhang Meng's identity and name, and only described the situation at the scene.
After hearing this, Zhuang Xian also shook his head: "The Fire Demon King can indeed be ruled out, I know the true strength of the Fire Demon King, he is only slightly inferior to Marshal Zhao, if it is really him who makes a move, my father will not talk so much, I'm afraid he won't be able to catch a move!"
"Then now there are only two suspects left. Li Luo analyzed and said: "One is the master of the Nine Lions Gate, and the other is the original third consul of Jiangcheng, I have heard of the master of the Nine Lions Gate, but who is Yan Fei, the original third consul of Jiangcheng? Do you know his current situation?"
"After my father's death, I personally investigated for a few days, and only gave up when my superiors strictly forbade it for my safety. At that time, I wanted to go to these people to ask for some clues, but fortunately I didn't, otherwise I probably wouldn't be able to sit here today, and it seems that I have to thank the injunction. Zhuang Xian showed a rare smile, but it quickly faded, and then said: "Yan Fei used to be the third consul of Jiangcheng, a master-level gold-level master, and he was transferred to the third legion of the city guard army before my father's death, and now he is the commander of ten thousand masters!"
"Why is it the City Guard Legion again?" Li Luo was deeply suspicious.
"What's the matter, you also found out that there is a problem with the City Guard Legion?" Zhuang Xianqi said.
Li Luo reacted to what he said, nodded and said, "It's not a discovery, it's just that a lot of things are related to the City Guard Legion, if you find out, can you tell me about it?"
Zhuang Xian thought for a moment.
"Well, since you're investigating my father's business, I'll tell you about the latest information I've gathered, which I only learned this morning. In fact, it is not very clear evidence, but it is found that the high-level leaders of the City Guard Legion have frequently appeared in Xiangyang recently, secretly contacting a group of unidentified people, and based on the results of various investigations, we suspect that they are smuggling restricted-level cultivation items that are strictly controlled by the government. ”
"How can you be sure that they are smuggling restricted-grade cultivation items and not other actions?" Li Luo asked.
"We had brothers who tracked down the group of unidentified people to Shencheng, but soon lost contact, and then we urgently contacted the intelligence director in Shencheng, only to learn that this group was also investigating this group of people, because this group of people sold a lot of restricted items such as three-color Dao flowers and blood pills on the black market in Shencheng, and had close ties with places outside Huaxia District. ”
Hearing the news of the three-color Daohua by chance, Li Luo's heart jumped, and he was a little excited, but he didn't show it, and asked instead: "So, do you think there is a problem with Admiral Liufeng, the supreme commander of the Guards Legion?"
"No!" Zhuang Xian shook his head and said in an affirmative tone: "Although Admiral Liufeng's line is at odds with our Marshal Zhao's line, there is no problem with Admiral Liufeng himself, this is confirmed by Marshal Zhao himself, the key to the problem is that Admiral Liufeng is too protective, and he has not yet realized that he is out of control internally, he is being used by someone with a heart!"
"Why is Marshal Zhao so sure that Admiral Liufeng is fine?" Li Luo still bit the question.
"You should have just joined the Central Intelligence Department, so there are some things you don't know yet!" Zhuang Xian took a sip of coffee, his tone flat. "Although Marshal Zhao and Admiral Liufeng are at odds, they only have different opinions, and there is no personal grudge involved, from a certain point of view, Admiral Liufeng is actually one of Zhao Yunshuai's most trusted people, not only because they used to be friends, but also because their two families are friends who have lasted for more than 2,000 years and know the roots. ”
"More than 2,000 years of world friends?" Li Luo was surprised.
"Well, the higher-ups basically knew about it, but it didn't spread among the people. Zhuang Xian paused, revealing a look of reminiscence. "When I was a child, I grew up on the battlefield, there was no entertainment there, and children played hard, so Admiral Lu Ming often told stories to us children born on the battlefield, and then I knew that Admiral Liufeng also had a very mysterious and glorious identity, and people with this identity would never do anything that harmed the overall interests of mankind, because they were dragon protectors. ”
"What is that?" Li Luo was confused, he had never heard of this group.
Zhuang Xian slowly explained: "More than two thousand years ago, the Holy Monarch Xu adopted the advice of Shan Huai, the Spy Commander, and others to form a blood protector dominated by martial arts masters and strange warriors. Later, the Blood Protector did not know whether to change its name or merge with another team to become the Dragon Tiger Guard recorded in the history books. After the death of the Holy Monarch, the Dragon Tiger Guard retreated into the background under the auspices of his sister-in-law Wang Yingying, forming several loyal families, who were responsible for protecting the Great Chu Dynasty and the human race, and later generations used to call them the Dragon Protectors. ”
Li Luo was fascinated by what he heard and asked urgently, "What about later?"
"The Great Chu Dynasty has flourished for more than 800 years, with rapid economic and scientific and technological development, and finally unified the three continents!"
"Everyone knows this!" Li Luo shook his head: "I'm asking the Dragon Protector Clan!"
"You listen to me first!" Zhuang Xian took another sip of coffee and slowly continued: "In fact, many people don't know that the reform of the Great Chu Dynasty was not initiated by the last emperor himself, but came from the secret letter that the Holy Monarch had left for future generations during his lifetime. The Holy Monarch once told future generations that if the Great Chu Dynasty survived and the country developed to its peak, then it should be opened. Eventually, the last emperor of the Great Chu Dynasty opened the letter and followed his last words to carry out reforms, eventually forming a federal government, after which after more than a thousand years of integration and development, there is today's world federal government. It's a pity that I can't find that letter, and I don't know what kind of words it can make a generation of emperors give up their rights, but this matter is true!"
"The Holy Monarch had already planned the future of the Great Chu Dynasty before his death, and he was really an emperor through the ages!" Li Luo sighed, and a deep respect for the Holy Monarch rose in his heart.
"Of course, if this is not the case, how can he be admired by the entire human race, even those strong people are convinced!" Zhuang Xian said with respect, took a deep breath, and then turned back to the topic. "However, after the Dragon Protector Clan assisted in completing that major reform, most of the clan disappeared with the royal clan, and it was rare to see it in the world from then on, leaving only the last person to exist, that is, the ancestor of Ryufeng. The mission of their inheritance has also been changed to do their best to maintain the order and stability of the human race, and Ryufeng is a stubborn follower of this idea, so it is impossible for him to smuggle restricted items, this kind of thing that shakes the human order, he can't bear it at all, even if he is dissatisfied with certain rules or order, it is also a fight in the council!"
As Zhuang Xian told these secrets, Li Luo felt even more surprised.
"How can you be sure of Ryufeng's character? Admiral Lu Ming can't tell you these things as a story, right?"
"Because Marshal Zhao is my master, when I was six years old, I worshipped him as a teacher, and this is what he told me personally!"
"......" Li Luo was silent, he didn't expect Zhuang Xian's origin to be so big.
"Okay! What happened between Marshal Zhao and Admiral Liufeng?
Zhuang Xian was stunned: "I have already said it so clearly, why do you still ask?"
"What do you understand? You seem to have only said the Dragon Protectors?" Li Luo was a little dazed.
"Don't you know that the Zhao family is the descendant of Zhao Yun?"
“......”
Li Luo smiled bitterly: "I really don't know this!"
Zhuang Xian looked at him incredulously: "I really don't know what Marshal Zhao likes about you, as an important member of the Central Intelligence Department, you don't even know this, is it because you look like a Holy Monarch? Do you know General Lu Ming? He is actually a descendant of Lu Xun, the commander of the naval army under the Holy Monarch!"
Speaking of this, Zhuang Xian's expression became a little gloomy again. "It's a pity that now Admiral Lu Ming's life and death are unknown, and there are really not a few descendants left of the founding ministers of the Great Chu Dynasty, and they have all disappeared from the stage of history!"
"Listen to what you mean, it seems that there are still a few left?" Li Luo said in surprise.
"Except for the Zhao family, all of them have fallen, even if there is a side branch bloodline, it is almost impossible to determine whether their ancestors are or not, and the people who have really continued and passed down from generation to generation, except for the still huge Zhao family, there are only five people left!"
Li Luo became more and more curious: "Except for General Lu Ming, who are the other four people?"
Zhuang Xian didn't answer in a hurry, but looked at him and suddenly asked, "You tell me the truth, are you surnamed Wang?"
"No! I've been called Li Luo since I was a child!"
"Are you sure no one has changed your last name?"
"Really not!" Li Luo's face turned pale.
"Okay, then I really don't know why Marshal Zhao likes you so much, I've always compared me with you recently!"
"Don't speculate, although many people say that I look like a holy monarch, I really have nothing to do with him, Marshal Zhao's affection is completely on Admiral Lu Ming's face!" As he spoke, Li Luo frowned a little unhappily: "You haven't answered my question yet?"
"Why do you want to know these people so much?"
"There's no why, it's purely curiosity, you can say it if you want to, if you don't want to say it, I'll check it myself!" Li Luoluo was a little dissatisfied, in fact, he didn't know why, he just had an inexplicable impulse.
Zhuang Xian was still in that cold appearance, carefully looked at Li Luo for a long time, and finally opened his mouth and said: "Except for the Zhao family, there are five people, Lu Ming is after Lu Xun, and Liu Feng is after the Dragon Guardian Clan, and the Lieutenant General of Huang Quan in Purgatory is the descendant of Huang Zhong, and the last person passed down from Huang Xu and the sister of the Holy Monarch." Gao Lin, the apprentice of the president of the Dongqing Academy, a descendant of Gao Shun. As for the last one, that's me!"
"You?" Li Luo was stunned and asked blankly: "Is there still an important minister surnamed Zhuang under the Holy Monarch's account? Why is it not written in the history books?"
"The surname Zhuang is a pseudonym given by my father after he left purgatory, and the surname is omitted, and my full name is Dian Zhuang Xian!"
"After the fierce general Dian Wei?" Li Luo reacted quickly.
"That's right!" Dian Zhuangxian glanced at Li Luo again and slowly got up. "It's not early, I hope you find out the murderer of my father as soon as possible, and I look forward to your good news. By the way, your anti-reconnaissance capability needs to be improved, and my subordinates caught two guys following you across the street, so you can bring them back for interrogation! ”
