That's all there is to it.

A blue-colored bead slowly flew out of the turtle's mouth and landed in the Demon Lord's hand.

This is the remains of the great demon who has been alive for countless years.

The Demon Lord put the blue bead in front of his eyes and gently waved his sleeve.

Heaven and earth, remembered by the chanting from ancient times.

There is no tonal fluctuation in that song, just leisurely, gentle and elegant, not sad, not happy, and without any emotion.

His voice was like a gust of breeze, and it didn't mean anything.

The surface of the lake is rippling, and that's a problem with the water.

Wan Song Chengtao, that's the problem of the tree.

The melodious sound of the flute echoed in the sky above Chang'an City, as if it could smooth people's hearts and the waves in the river.

"What's this tune?"

Wang Sheng's heart felt something, and asked softly.

"Heavenly Demon Groan."

The bitter monk said: "After the death of the people of the demon kingdom, they are buried in the River Styx, and relatives and friends will sing this song on the riverside, praying for the calm of the waves and the sleeping deceased will not be disturbed. ”

Singing down.

The Demon Lord's spirit drifted in the wind.

The turtle no longer breathed, and slowly fell towards the ground.

A rain followed.

In the distance, there was a clear cry of anger and pain from the sunset mountain.

It was the call of Suzaku.

……

……

More than ten days after that spring rain, Chang'an City gradually returned to normal.

Wuhui Valley and the Sword Sect Yun Jian Feng took the lead, and the cultivators of the major sects worked together, and it didn't take long to repair the damaged streets and buildings, and the people were finally allowed to return to the city. Seeing the brand-new house, many people were shocked and speechless, and other losses in the house would be compensated by the imperial court.

As for what kind of shock the events of that day would bring to the people, it was not within the scope of the imperial court's consideration.

Later that evening, the newly restored Demon Suppressor convened an extremely important meeting.

Exactly how to divide the damage caused by the previous events is naturally one of the issues, but it is a small matter.

What really matters is to find out the cause of the Demon Suppression.

A great thing like Hu Yunjian has already returned to the mountain gate, but the matter must be investigated.

Except for the three holy places in other states, all factions came, and a total of thirty-seven factions were the main participants who had witnessed the agreement of the Heavenly Dome Mountain, and the Blood Moon Sect and even the Qingcheng Sword Sect were all present.

The person who presided over the meeting was not the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, nor the Son of Heaven, but the Zhike Huaisu of the Discipline Hall of the Hanging Temple.

As the plenipotentiary representative of the bitter monk and the abbot of the Hanging Temple, this senior monk was recognized by all the participants.

After Master Huaisu announced the beginning, no one in the Demon Suppression Division spoke, silent and depressed.

Some sect representatives were even more uneasy when they thought that the remains of the turtle were still in the ground below their seats at this time.

In the end, it was the parties who broke the silence.

The word "party" here refers not only to being present at the time, but also because he has the closest relationship with the Demon Suppression Division.

Now everyone knows that the Demon Suppression Division is the Daomen's Demon Sect Divine Beast Xuan Tortoise.

Li Yuan looked at Zhang Xiang and asked in a cold voice: "There was a change in the Demon Suppression Division that day, why did Zhang Xiang stop me and not let me in?" Liyuan is one of the top ten powerhouses in the Void Realm in the Valley of No Return.

He has the highest cultivation level in the field, and his rank is also the highest, only Master Huaisu is on a par with him, and his momentum is natural when he asks questions.

Zhang Xiang's expression remained unchanged and said: "No one is allowed to enter the Demon Suppression Division, even if it is arraigned, the puppet is responsible for bringing it out." ”

In fact, the prisoners who were sent to the Demon Suppression Division had already been squeezed extremely clean by the Tang Dynasty and various sects, and there were few arraignments.

It's just that some evil cultivators are too high in the realm and too strong in demon cultivation, so it's more difficult to kill them directly, so send them to the Demon Suppression Division to die.

Li Yuan sneered and said, "The situation was so urgent that day, can't you make an exception?" ”

"Rules are rules, don't say it's you and me, even if the Lord of Lin Mountain or Dao Yan is in person, you can't enter the Demon Suppression Division."

Zhang Xiang said expressionlessly: "In fact, if it weren't for the fact that no one had entered the Demon Suppression Division for so many years, how could the world not know that the Xuan Turtle had actually eaten so many people?" ”

This rhetorical question may seem ordinary, but it is not.

Everyone thought that Zhang Xiang was worthy of being the number one celebrity in front of His Majesty Datang, and he was so tough against the Daomen.

Li Yuan shouted: "The Xuan Turtle has sacrificed so much for the peace of the Great Wilderness, what is the point of swallowing some evil things?" What's more, this is what the agreement is about. ”

"There was no such thing as eating living people in the agreement back then, otherwise who would dare to agree to the imperial court, the Hanging Temple and the Sword Sect?"

Zhang Xiang looked at him quietly and said, "It's your Daomen...... Don't dare to sign it, do you? ”

Liyuan was silent for a while, and said: "Please don't go around, there must be an explanation for this matter." ”

"Isn't it very clear? What else do you need to explain? ”

Zhang Xiang said: "The Xuan Turtle violated the agreement of the year and wanted to eat the Demon Lord, but the Demon Lord controlled the soul, and in the end, both sides died. ”

Everyone knew that this was what the Demon Lord said before he died, and it was the only fact that could be seen.

Li Yuan laughed angrily and said, "It's really ridiculous, you also believe the words of the Demon Lord?" What about the man who fled? ”

Master Huaisu suddenly said: "The change in the Demon Suppression Division must be related to the person who escaped at the beginning, I don't know what the Demon Suppression Division knows?" ”

Zhang Xiang was a little surprised, he didn't expect Master Huaisu to help Daomen speak.

Li Yuan said: "Yes, before the dragon god died, Bai Zhenren found that someone had escaped from the ground, who was that person?" Could it be that the Demon Lord was released by him? ”

"Although the realm of the person who escaped from the Demon Suppression Division is high, how can he not be discovered by the Xuan Turtle in the Demon Suppression Division, and still be able to find the Demon Lord in the Demon Prison?"

Zhang Xiang said expressionlessly: "Immortal masters, you don't know that there is a ban left by immortals in the Demon Prison, unless there is a strong person in the Void Realm, who can break it?" ”

Li Yuan said: "But there must be something wrong with the person who escaped, why did Zhang Xiang insist on not agreeing to start with the prisoners of the Demon Suppression Division?" ”

Zhang Xiang said: "For countless years, the imperial court and various sects don't know how many people have been sent to the Demon Suppression Division, do they all want to check?" ”

Li Yuan sneered and said, "Why can't you check?" From these days to hundreds of years ago, no suspicious object can be let go. ”

Zhang Xiang was silent for a while, and said: "Since you insist on checking from the worship, then you will check." ”

Li Yuan suddenly felt that something was wrong, and wanted to ask more carefully, but Master Huaisu had already sent a message to ask the Demon Suppression Division to start checking the previous files.

In the change of the Demon Suppression Division, the Demon Suppression Division was directly destroyed into ruins, but fortunately, those files were not written on paper and were well preserved.

It was a magic weapon shaped like a jade, and all the prisoners who were sent to the Demon Suppression Division would pass through the Criminal Department, where the handover list of the two sides would be stored.

The Criminal Department also sent a large number of files for comparison.

The officials and representatives of the various sects looked at the words flowing downward on the light curtain, and their expressions were very attentive and serious.

If you want to find out the person who escaped from the Demon Suppression Division, you should naturally check from the back to the front.

It didn't take long for many people to discover something wrong with a file.

The quiet Demon Suppressor suddenly had a lot more voices.

It's not a whisper, it's the sound of the feet rubbing against the ground when the chair is moved, or the sound of the bottom of the bowl bumping against the table when the bowl is put down.

The prisoner's name was Yi Yan, and according to the handover list, he should be the brainchild of the Xihai Sect somewhere, but there were obviously some problems with the file about this person.

Master Huaisu passed on to the officials of the Criminal Department and began to inquire about the details of the arrest of this person by the Criminal Department.

The official of the criminal department was very nervous, he did not know these things at all, only that the prisoner was directly sent to the criminal department, and the commander personally tried it.

Hearing these words, the Demon Suppression Division, which had just been a little lively, became quiet again, and was silent.

At this time, the records retrieved by the Demon Suppression Division from the Xuanjin puppet were also sent to the field, and Zhang Xiang directly turned to the relevant page, frowning slightly.

He Zhang Xiang asked, "Got a problem?" ”

"The door to the cell where this prisoner, Yi Yan, was located, was once opened."

Zhang Xiang handed the puppet crystal nucleus in his hand to Master Huaisu.

Master Huaisu sensed with his divine sense, and his expression gradually became solemn, and said, "Please Commander Zhang come over." ”

The room became quieter, no one could enter, and who would open the door to the cell except the puppet?

Someone noticed that since the prisoner named Yi Yan was found, Elder Liyuan had been silent, not as tough as he had been at the beginning.

It didn't take long for Zhang Sangongzi, who was in charge of organizing the rebuilding of various sects in Chang'an City, to be invited to the Demon Suppression Division.

Hearing Master Huaisu's question, Zhang Sangongzi was silent for a while, and said: "I have the impression that the prisoner named Yi Yan is indeed a remnant of the Xihai Sect, as for why the door of the prison was opened, I should ask the Demon Suppression Division." ”

Zhang Xiang's gaze was withdrawn from the tea bowl, looked at him and said, "There is a problem with the criminal department's file about this person. ”

Zhang Sangongzi looked him in the eye and said, "I don't understand what Zhang Xiang means. ”

Zhang Xiang stopped talking, lowered his head and continued to look at the tea in his bowl.

Master Huaisu asked calmly, "Where was this person arrested, and who is the official of the Criminal Department who handled it?" ”

Everything in the world is most afraid of the word serious, no matter how careful the layout, as long as the investigation is detailed enough, the problem can always be found, and there is always something unclear.

What's more, when Daomen sent this person into the Demon Suppression Division, he was threatened by the Xihai faction, and the matter was done in a hurry, so naturally there were many omissions that had not had time to be smoothed out.

Li Yuan's face was a little gloomy, and he said, "Master, why don't you ask ...... first?"

Master Huaisu raised his hand to signal him not to speak yet, looked at Zhang Sangongzi's eyes, and said calmly with sternness: "The tragic death of the Xuangui and the chaos in Chang'an City, this is definitely not a matter of the Daomen, if this matter is really hidden, please don't hide it." ”

Li Yuan secretly said badly, looked at Zhang Sangongzi, and only hoped that his junior brother could think of a way to deal with it.

Zhang Sangongzi lowered his head slightly, looking at the new green bricks under his feet, not knowing what he was thinking.

He Zhang Xiang said with a slight mockery: "That prisoner's name is Yi Yan...... It's such an interesting name, could it be that someone sent him to the Demon Suppression Division to deliver a message? ”

Looking at the scene in the field, whether it was the officials of the Demon Suppression Division and the Criminal Department, or the representatives of the various sects, they were all a little nervous.

The commander of the Criminal Department, Zhang Sangongzi, was a big man in the court and the third son of Zhang Xiang, but he was asked at this time and had nothing to say.

Zhang Sangongzi suddenly raised his head and said, "That prisoner was sent by Dugu Taifu, I don't know anything else." ”

After saying this, a touch of relief and relaxation appeared in his eyes.

Li Yuan stared at Zhang Sangongzi's back, his eyes were slightly cold.

……

……

There was a dead silence in the Demon Suppression Division, and there was no sound.

A flock of birds flying back to the New Plum Garden from outside Chang'an City passed by in the sky, chirping.

The accident of the Demon Suppression Division is actually related to the Prince's Mansion?

Master Huaisu was silent for a moment and said, "Please also ask Lord Zhang to stay in the Demon Suppression Division for a while." ”

Then he looked at Zhang Xiang and said, "Let's try here today?" ”

Zhang Xiang nodded, got up and said hello to everyone in the hall, and walked towards the outside of the Demon Suppression Division.

Everyone knew that Zhang Xiang was in a hurry to enter the palace to face the saint.
