Chapter Ninety-Eight: Enlightenment
In the following days, Xiang Chu cheekily thought that for the safety of Xu Yi and the others, he temporarily took them to the Shudu Town Demon Division to live temporarily, and Xiang's mother was also happy when she learned the news, and even praised Xiang Chu for not being an elm pimple like his father.
During Xiang Chu's absence, Xu Shiyin would also visit Xiang's mother and others in the Demon Suppression Division every once in a while, and she was also very good to Xue'er, that is, during this time, Xiang's father and mother were very satisfied with Xu Shiyin, especially Xiang's mother, who was even better to Xu Shiyin than her own daughter, and sometimes made Xiao Xue'er slightly jealous.
Xiang Chu was not immersed in the gentle township during this period of time, and insisted on cultivating every day, and at the same time, Xiang Chu also took the time to give Xiong Jie the Eighteen Hammers of the Crazy Demons captured this time, after all, Xiong Jie was born with divine powers, and he was very suitable for cultivating the Eighteen Hammers of the Crazy Demons.
Of course, Xiang Chu did not favor one over the other, and also gave Han Jin and Yan Lin some exercises, but the grade of these exercises was far inferior to the Eighteen Hammers of the Crazy Demon.
Although Han Jin and the others were also envious, they were not jealous or feel unfair, they had only known and intersected with Xiang Chu for three months, it was enough for Xiang Chu to be able to do this, and the two of them had no talent in martial arts, so there was no need to fight or anything else.
After all, for them, Xiang Chu is their biggest reliance......
On this day, Xiang Chu took Xu Shiyin to start daily cultivation as usual, he first instructed Xu Shiyin, and then found a corner in the courtyard to close his eyes and meditate, Taoism pays attention to the unity of heaven and man, so for the Tao and artistic conception, you need to constantly understand the rules of heaven and earth, natural changes, and continuous improvement.
These days, Xiang Chu has not wasted it in vain, but has sorted out his experience in the past few months, and then carefully reviewed the process of each step, which has benefited him a lot and given him a lot of insights.
"Knock knock."
A hurried knock on the door interrupted Xu Shiyin and the others, who were cultivating.
Xiang Chu slowly opened his eyes and said softly, "Qingcheng, come in." ”
Ouyang Qingcheng pushed the door in, then looked at Xiang Chu with a solemn face and said, "Boss, there is something you need to decide. ”
Xiang Chu looked at Ouyang Qingcheng, with the battle of the Metaverse, Ouyang Qingcheng became more and more calm, but he had a lively temperament, and he rarely saw his expression, so Xiang Chu asked, "What's the matter?" Wouldn't it be enough to make a phone call? ”
Ouyang Qingcheng was stunned when he heard this, then glanced at Xu Shiyin on the side, his face showed a sudden realization, and then he said with a little embarrassment: "Hehe, boss, I forgot about it in a hurry." ”
"Okay, let's talk, what's wrong?"
Xu Shiyin nodded to Ouyang Qingcheng when she heard the words on the side, said hello, and then turned around and returned to the room without the slightest stop.
Ouyang Qingcheng saw it and exclaimed, "Boss, your blessing is this ......" Ouyang Qingcheng gave a thumbs up.
Xiang Chu also flashed a smile in his eyes when he heard this, as he was inseparable from Xu Shiyin during this time, there was more and more understanding between the two, but this also made Xiang Chu love Xu Shiyin even more, and he often felt lucky that he had grasped such a good girl.
"Alright, let's talk about things." Xiang Chu came back to his senses and asked with a serious face.
Ouyang Qingcheng heard this and said, "Boss, this time we have caught a lot of remnants of the Demon Sect. ”
"But most of these are small minions, and they have no value, but today there is news from the military department, when they were cleaning the battlefield on the Twin Islands, they saved a few seriously injured Demon Sect people, and one of them woke up today."
"What does this have to do with us?" Xiang Chu interrupted Ouyang Qingcheng and asked.
Ouyang Qingcheng's expression froze, his eyes looked at Xiang Chu with resentment, and said, "Boss, don't be in a hurry, I'll talk about the critical moment soon." ”
Xiang Chu was also a little embarrassed when he heard this, and said secretly: "It seems that the Dao heart has been a little unstable recently." ”
Ouyang Qingcheng saw that Xiang Chu didn't speak, and continued: "According to the news from the military department, the person from the Demon Sect actually said that it was someone from our Demon Suppression Division when he woke up. ”
Xiang Chu looked stunned, and suddenly stood up from the ground, "What did you say?" ”
"He said he was from our Demon Suppression Division, and now the military department wants us to confirm it."
Ouyang Qingcheng said again: "I also went to ask Chang Wu, Ning Fei, and the inspection department and other departments, and none of them have placed undercover agents in the Demon Sect. ”
"And that person's cultivation is not bad, but he is a master of the inner rest realm."
Xiang Chu clasped his hands, rubbed his chin with one hand, and said, "Let's go, let's go and have a look first." ”
As soon as he took a few steps, Xiang Chu stopped and asked, "What is Xu Ning doing now?" ”
"Sister Xuning is still staying in the south now."
"Forget it, let's go."
"Okay."
The two of them soon came to the Shudu military headquarters, and as soon as they entered, several generals of the half-step Shenzang realm immediately greeted them.
Xiang Chu exchanged a few words with everyone, and then passed through layers of checkpoints and guards to an underground base.
"Is that him?" Xiang Chu looked at the figure that was wrapped in medical gauze and asked most of his body.
A military general who followed behind Xiang Chu said: "Director Xiang, it's him, we interrogated him as soon as he woke up, and he said that he was a member of the Demon Suppression Division. ”
"But anything else?" Xiang Chu asked.
The general of the military department shook his head when he heard this, and said: "This person was interrogated by me throughout the whole process, and he didn't say anything except this one. ”
Xiang Chu looked at the figure opposite the glass when he heard this, and frowned tightly.
Ouyang Qingcheng on the side didn't know what to do, and said directly: "This person is so bold, he dares to pretend to be someone from our Demon Suppression Division, Director, why don't you kill him directly." ”
Xiang Chu shook his head, and after being silent for a while, he said, "General Qi, I don't know if I can go in and talk to him alone?" ”
When General Qi heard this, he hurriedly said, "Naturally, come and open the door." ”
Xiang Chu nodded and said, "By the way, please take the trouble to turn off the monitoring." ”
"Yes."
Xiang Chu walked into the interrogation room, looking at the young man who was speechless and pale, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, but he didn't speak immediately, but pulled a chair and sat opposite him, looking at him quietly.
The atmosphere was instantly quiet, and Ouyang Qingcheng and the others outside were all confused.
After a long time, Qiming slowly raised his head, looked at the person in front of him, said in a hoarse voice, "Are you from the Demon Suppression Division?" ”
Xiang Chu nodded and said, "You said that you are a member of the Demon Suppression Division, but what evidence do you have?" ”
Qiming looked Xiang Chu up and down and said, "Who are you?" ”
Xiang Chu frowned and looked at Qiming, and said in silence: "Xiang Chu." ”
Qiming's body shook suddenly, and a look of shock flashed in his eyes, he had met Xiang Chu when he was on Qingping Street, but he didn't record Xiang Chu's face at the beginning.
He has heard Xiang Chu's name many times in Nanning's mouth, and it is basically full of praise and admiration...... Thinking of Nanning, a touch of sadness flashed in Qiming's eyes.
However, he quickly collected his emotions, looked at Xiang Chu and said, "I'm not from the Demon Suppression Division. ”
Xiang Chu said: "I know, I don't want to ask you this. ”
"Tell me, who told you to say that?"
Qiming lowered his head slightly, a trace of struggle flashed in his eyes, and finally said slowly: "The few times you got the news, I left it all ......"
"Impossible!" Xiang Chu directly interrupted Qiming's words, and then said in a cold voice: "When I fought with Nanning, there was definitely no one within a radius of thousands of meters!" ”
Speaking of this, Xiang Chu's body leaned forward slightly, and asked with oppression: "Or do you think that you can do this quietly in Nanning or under my perception?" ”
Qi Ming opened his mouth when he heard this, he didn't know what to say at this time, he only had the realm of the late stage of internal breath, although his combat power was okay, but to say that in the Shenzang realm and in the face of a Tianjiao like Xiang Chu, he really had no way to hide......
Xiang Chu continued: "Okay, I won't say this beforehand. What is your name? ”
"Qiming." Qiming's hoarse voice sounded.
"The throwing knife is yours?" Xiang Chu asked suddenly.
"Yes."
"But you didn't put that? Are you another master of the Demon Cult? Or ...... Nanning? ”
Qiming suddenly looked up at Xiang Chu, but quickly lowered it again.
Seeing this, Xiang Chu became interested and asked with interest: "It seems that I guessed correctly, it is Nanning who is paving the way for you." What is your relationship with Nanning? ”
When Qi Ming heard this, there was a look of memory in his eyes, there were complications, gratitude, and hatred, but Xiang Chu didn't see all this, and after a long time, Qi Ming looked up at Xiang Chu and said, "It doesn't matter." He saved me and hurt me! ”
Xiang Chu didn't speak, and Qiming continued: "When I was about to die, it was he who saved me, so that I could eat well, give me to practice martial arts, and give me resources......"
"I loved him and hated him......"
Xiang Chu still didn't speak when he heard this, and he didn't know what to say after listening to it, so he could only look at Qiming quietly, and at the same time, his mind was constantly thinking about what to do with Qiming.
After a long time, Xiang Chu slowly spoke: "For more than ten years, have you indiscriminately killed innocents? ”
Qiming was silent for a moment, "I've killed a lot of people. ”
Xiang Chu frowned and looked at Qiming, this 'killed a lot of people' is a little intriguing. I've killed a lot of people, but who are they?
"The elderly, children, pregnant women."
Qiming shook his head.
"Civilians who don't cultivate?"
Qiming continued to shake his head.
"Okay, I know, I don't have the right to decide on this matter." Xiang Chu said, and then got up and left.
"Boss."
"Director Xiang......"
Xiang Chu waved his hand, signaling everyone not to ask, then looked at General Qi and said, "General Qi, I want to take this person away." ”
"Yes, Lord Zhong and General Zhong have already explained."
"Qingcheng, you personally bring someone to bring him back to the Demon Suppression Division."
"Yes."
Xiang Chu didn't stop after finishing speaking, and directly asked people to send him to the Administration Bureau.
As soon as he arrived at the Administration Bureau, Xiang Chu told Zhong Chucheng and others about Qiming's situation.
Everyone was lost in thought when they heard this.
In the end, it was Long Xiang who appeared and said, "First use his real name to check his past, and then find out the information of Qiming from the mouths of other Demon Sect members, if he really didn't participate too much in the killing of the Demon Sect, I think he can be spared." ”
"Okay."
"By the way, Xiang Chu, you can prepare after the New Year, and go to the imperial capital with me when the time comes." Long Xiang suddenly said towards Xiang Chu.
Xiang Chu was stunned when he heard this, and the eyes of everyone present were also a little subtle when they heard this, and finally Zhong Chucheng got up and said, "General Long, we have finally come up with a ...... in Shuzhou."
However, as soon as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Long Xiang irritably, and said, "It's not what you think, there is an opportunity to give it to him." And the big marshal also wants to meet him. ”
Everyone was relieved when they heard this, and then they congratulated Xiang Chu one after another, and a trace of envy flashed in their eyes.
