The next day, Song Zhiyuan and Zhao Ran changed their regular clothes, drove lightly, went down from Wuji Mountain, entered Pingwu County before dark, and stayed at the Wangfu Inn in the south of the city. At this time, the original mansion as the courtyard of the West Zhenwu Palace was already closed, Zhao Ran first settled Song Zhiyuan, and came to the gate of the mansion to wait for the opportunity.

After waiting for more than half an hour, I saw the corner door open, and a fireworker came out. Zhao Ran stepped forward to stop him, claiming to be an old friend of Lin Shuangwen, a firefighter in the guest hall, and he was in a hurry to see him. The fireworker said impatiently: "I have something to go out, and I don't have time to communicate with you, if you want to see it, come over early tomorrow morning." ”

Zhao Ran stuffed two taels of silver: "It's too much to disturb the Dao Chang, and I really don't want to go, but I do have something urgent to see Lin Shuangwen, and I also passed it on to the Dao Chang." ”

The fireworker wiped the silver into his sleeve, glanced at Zhao Ran, and asked, "Your surname, who are you?"

"My surname is Zhao, and he said that the old people of Guyang County came to visit, and he knew. ”

"Wait. The fireman turned around and entered, and after a while, he walked out with Lin Shuangwen and pointed at Zhao Ran: "Oh, he wants to see you." ”

Zhao Ran glanced at him, Lin Shuangwen was stunned, and then smiled at the fireworker4↗: "Thank you, Brother Zhang." ”

After the fireworker surnamed Zhang left, Lin Shuangwen followed Zhao Ran to find a remote corner, and Shi Li greeted each other and said, "Master Fang, why did you come here tonight?"

Zhao Ran said: "I have something important to ask to see Jiang Gaogong, or Zhong Xunzhao, and I will ask you to pass it on...... Well, don't alarm others. ”

Lin Shuangwen said: "Zhong Xunzhao went to Chengdu. Haven't come back yet......"

"Then Jiang Gaogong. Zhao Ran stuffed five taels of silver into Lin Shuangwen's hand again, and advised: "If you are tired, please be careful when Jiang Gaogong goes out." ”

Lin Shuangwen stuffed the silver back to Zhao Ran: "Master Fang, don't kill the villain, the silver money given last time was too much, give it again this time, where does the villain have the face to ask for it again." Master Fang is waiting here. I'm going to ask Jiang Gaogong. ”

Zhao Ran waited for about a moment in this remote corner, and finally looked forward to Jiang Gaogong. Lin Shuangwen knew that this Zhao Fang Master of Wuji Academy must have something extremely secret, so he took his leave and left, leaving only Jiang Gaogong and Zhao Ran alone.

Jiang Gaogong seemed to guess Zhao Ran's intention, and said: "This is not a place to speak, where do you live? ”

Zhao Ran led Jiang Gaogong to the Wangfu Inn, entered through the back door, and entered the guest room directly. After Jiang Gaogong entered the house, he saw Song Zhiyuan, and hurriedly bowed his head: "Senior Brother Song is also here?"

Song Zhiyuan smiled bitterly: "The shape is forced." Had to come. I didn't want to disturb my junior brother, but my heart was so numb that I didn't know who to talk to, after all, Senior Brother Jiang came out of my Wuji Academy, and if I thought about it, I could only consult with my junior brother. ”

"Why is my brother so polite? Come, let's sit down and talk. ”

Zhao Ran made tea, and the three of them sat down. This kind of thing. Song Zhiyuan didn't want to speak first, so Zhao Ran immediately spoke: "Senior Brother Jiang." By the way, I heard Bai Du say that the reason why Zhang Prison left halfway that day was because an old man from Xinning County asked to see him?

Jiang Gaogong said: "The Xuanyuan Guan experts sent people to Ziyang Courtyard in Xinning County, and it was verified. No one in Ziyang Courtyard asked to see Zhang Jian Yuan at that time, and Bai Dushu followed to identify people one by one, and did not find the young Taoist priest who intercepted the car that day. Therefore, it can be confirmed that the case was an intentional interception. But that's all I know, after all, the matter of the Zhang Prison is too heavy. The case has been taken over by the Jade Emperor Pavilion and Huayun Pavilion, Master Yunda is the mainstay, and Master Liang is the auxiliary, and there are many things, and the West Zhenwu Palace does not know very well. But yesterday there was news, saying that the Jade Emperor Pavilion had found the traces of the demon monk, and Master Yunda led people to chase after him, and the demon monk was in the whereabouts of Gulu in Changning, and I don't know if he caught up. ”

"Changning Valley?" Changning Valley is located at the junction of Chengdu Mansion, Long'an Mansion and Song Fanwei, about two hundred and sixty or seventy miles away from Pingwu County, to Zhao Ran's surprise, at this moment, he is also bold, and after doing such a big case, he actually dares to continue to stay in the hinterland of Sichuan Province, which is deep in the border.

"Yes, I hope Master Yunda can capture this murderer and avenge the prison court!"

Song Zhiyuan and Zhao Ran glanced at each other, and their spirits were lifted. This can be regarded as the best news in more than ten days, if the murderer can be arrested and brought to justice, it will definitely reduce the responsibility of Wuji Yuan from the side. At the same time, Zhao Ran has another plan, what he considers is that after the murderer is brought to justice, it is very likely that the truth of the case will be found, which is of great significance to whether the Qingmiao Qian reform promoted by Zhao Ran can continue.

Whether the murderer's death was done at will or has been planned for a long time has always been a mystery that has plagued Zhao Ran, of course, Zhao Ran is inclined to the latter. If the truth of the case is consistent with Zhao Ran's speculation, then the gang of guys behind the plot will definitely be unlucky, and Zhao Ran's reform will benefit from it.

But this is all later, now Song Zhiyuan and Zhao Ran are most concerned about the question of how to hold Daomen accountable, Song Zhiyuan and Zhao Ran are grasshoppers tied to a rope, if Song Zhiyuan has a problem, Zhao Ran's good life will come to an end.

Or Zhao Ran spoke: "Jiang Gaogong, Zhang Jian Yuan was assassinated in Guyang County, this is indeed the reason for the poor security of Wuji Yuan and Guyang County, I Wuji Yuan is deeply uneasy, Song Jian Yuan has often blamed himself for this these days, what is the guilt, I Wuji Yuan is also willing to bow down." It's just that it was a cultivator who assassinated Zhang Jian Yuan, and it was not something that my Ten Directions Jungle could deal with, I don't know what the Xizhen Martial Palace plans to do about this?

Jiang Gaogong pondered for a moment and said, "Following the old practice, when discussing the crime, Wuji Courtyard will not be able to escape no matter what, you should be prepared, this must be clear to Senior Brother Song and Senior Brother Zhao." ”

"Yes, yes, yes, we will never shirk the responsibility!"

"However, as Senior Brother Zhao said, the murderer is a Buddhist monk, and if he wants to deal with it with the power of Wuji Academy, it is also a fool's dream. Sandu also talked about this matter during the discussion, and they all said that Wuji Yuan should not bear too heavy punishment, and Bai Du talked about the meaning of Liao Duchu, and a little punishment was enough. But Jingduguan had some objections...... Don't blame Jing Duguan, after all, he was cultivated by Zhang Jian Yuan, and it is normal for him to be angry if he is like a master and apprentice. ”

"I can understand this naturally. ”

Jiang Gaogong continued: "But you also know that such a major matter will ultimately be decided by the prison court, and the new prison of the Dao Palace has not yet arrived, so it depends on the meaning of the new prison court." Xu Prison Yuan is currently in Xuanyuan Temple, and Senior Brother Zhong has gone to Chengdu in order to take over the Prison Courtyard. I don't know if you still remember the abbot Du? This prison and abbot Du have a very close relationship, when the prison was in the Wusheng Palace in Huguang Huangzhou, Abbot Du was the prison court, and later the prison court went to Wuchang Qingyang Palace, and Du Abbot also went to Qingyang Palace and served as the abbot. I heard that in the past few years, only the abbot of Du was the head of the prison, and now he is transferred to my Xizhenwu Palace, I am afraid that the same is true. What happened when Abbot Du came to Guyang County last year, Senior Brother Song and Senior Brother Zhao must have been very impressed, so they ......"

Without Jiang Gaogong's efforts to understand the meaning of his words, Song Zhiyuan and Zhao Ran's hearts sank.
