Chapter Seventy-One: Dongfang Jing's Investigation Method
"Who wants to greet the Great True Man?"
Dongfang Jing threw out a rather tempting and seductive mention yƬ. Being able to see the battle between a real celestial master and a bodhisattva-level great cultivator is an extremely rare opportunity, and many low-level cultivators may be difficult to encounter in their cultivation life, as long as they are smart, they may be able to comprehend many essences that they usually cannot understand, and it is even beneficial for breaking through the bottleneck in the future.
In the same way, there are so many monks in the Dao Sect, how many of them can get the opportunity to talk to the great real people? As long as they please the great real people, casually reveal some cultivation experience, and casually point out one or two divine channel techniques, it will also be an inexhaustible blessing for a lifetime.
Even Zhao Ran began to be embarrassed, desperately turning his brain, weighing the pros and cons.
For a while, there was silence in the Quliu Pavilion.
Rong Niang's first squeak, she pouted and muttered with disdain on her face: "Whoever you love will go, this girl will not go." ā
Dongfang Jing smiled and looked at the others. His gaze first stopped on Zhao Ran, and his eyes asked.
Zhao Ran hesitated for a moment, looked at Zhang Zhikong, Meng Yanzhen and the butcher, and said: "Senior Brother Dongfang has the final say, if you let me go, I will go, if you ask me to stay and help, I will stay." This is a very slippery answer, but it is actually the habitual thinking he has formed over the years.
When you first arrive in a group, your qualifications and cultivation are at the lowest level, remember to keep a low profile at all times, don't compete for the cake, and try to give the opportunity to others, otherwise it will be difficult to get along with others in the group in the future. Since there are advantages to staying or leaving, then simply put on a polite posture and give the choice to the "leader", and the "leader" is satisfied, feeling that you know the general situation, and others can't say anything, but will have a good feeling.
Dongfang Jing nodded, and looked at others again, Meng Yanzhen said impatiently: "According to me, Dongfang, you can directly set one, let whoever goes, there are benefits to the left and right, and no one is unhappy." ā
Dongfang Jing smiled and said, "It still depends on your own wishes. ā
The butcher interjected, "I'll stay, it's hard to happen again, I want to stay and join in the fun." Besides, a big old man like me can't do a good job of serving a real person, and it doesn't make a real person happy, but not beautiful. ā
Dongfang Jing nodded again, and then looked at Zhang Zhikong.
Zhang Zhikong said softly: "Senior brother, let me go." I have been stagnant in the Huangguan Realm for three years, and I have not been able to break through the realm, and there are still some things I don't understand in my practice. ā
Dongfang Jing nodded again, and then without saying a word, he looked at the sky in a daze.
The meandering pavilion was quiet again, only the sound of the splashing waterfall on the cliff wall echoed in the ears, but it made people feel that the valley was even more empty.
I don't know how long it took, Zhao Ran began to feel the atmosphere depressed from the initial dazedness, and an indescribable feeling of suffocation gradually spread in the pavilion, making him breathless, and he couldn't help but take a long breath.
Suddenly, I heard Dongfang Jing Yu said: "In the late autumn of the previous year, Zhang Yunzhao, the supervisor of the West Zhenwu Palace of Long'an Mansion, was stabbed by the Buddhist demon monk in the Songfeng Ridge in the northwest of Guyang County, which was a big case that shocked the world. However, such a thing is not unprecedented, as long as the murderer is arrested. The case was picked up by Uncle Yun, and then he finally found the traces of the demon monk of the Buddhist Gate, and chased him into this valley at that time, and fought a big battle with the demon monk......"
Suddenly, hearing Dongfang Jing start to tell about the case of Zhang Yunzhao of the Xizhenwu Palace, Zhao Ran couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, and subconsciously turned his head to look at Rong Niang beside him. Rong Niang had already heard Zhao Ran tell this story before, so she also looked at it, her eyes full of curiosity.
ā...... It's just that unexpectedly, there is not one, but three demon monks, and they are all above the bhikshu realm, and Uncle Yun was defeated at that time, and he was seriously injured and left. After that, the patriarch personally presided over the encirclement and suppression of the demon monk, but unfortunately in the end the demon monk escaped......"
After a pause, Dongfang Jing continued: "There are two doubts among them. Uncle Yun said that the demon monk's cultivation is not weak and there are many people, and it is normal for him to be invincible, but the strange thing is that the demon monk is very familiar with his pursuit path, and he set up an ambush on the way forward, and he is extremely accurate. Not only that, but these three demon monks seemed to be extremely familiar with Uncle Yun's Dao technique, and when Uncle Yun was fighting the method, he was always restrained by the enemy's first strike, otherwise he would never have been so seriously injured. That's one of ......"
ā...... Second, the patriarch mobilized manpower to besiege Changning Valley, confident that he had surrounded this place, but the demon monk still disappeared inexplicably, and the reason has not been found out so far......."
For the first time, Zhao Ran learned in detail about the specific circumstances of the round-up of the assassins that day, and he listened very attentively, and this matter had a lot to do with him, and he couldn't help but care about it. It's just that after hearing this, he has clearly heard the meaning of Dongfang Jinghua - there is a traitor in the Daomen!
Dongfang looked up at the sky, sighed and said, "I remember that when my father heard about it, he went down with one palm and slapped his favorite pineapple ironwood book case into a pile of scraps...... Senior Brother Zhang, do you remember?"
Zhang Zhikong smiled and said, "The Great Elder is amiable, I have been in the Jade Emperor Pavilion for so many years, and I have never seen him lose his temper like this. ā
Dongfang Jing said: "Since entering the realm of the Heavenly Master, the unity of the void and the real, the body is free of dirt, the mind is clear, and the Taoist heart is stable, my father has never lost his temper in my memory, except this time." ā
Zhang Zhikong turned his head to look at the waterfall, stunned.
Dongfang Jing said: "After that, the Jade Emperor Pavilion secretly investigated the reason, but there was never any clue. Last autumn, when I went back to the Jade Emperor Pavilion, my father told me that he wanted me to investigate, and I should take the matter into account. But after going through the files, I had no clue, so I came to Changning Valley and searched every corner, but still found nothing. One day I suddenly thought, since I can't find out who is the traitor, why don't I want to find out how to let this person jump out on his own? After returning to the Jade Emperor Pavilion again, I entered the canonical record room, and spent three days sorting out the list of all the suspicious monks, even if there was only a trace of people involved, I did not miss anything, and sorted out more than 700 names......
Speaking of this, Dongfang Jing smiled at Zhao Ran and said: "Actually, this stupid method is still stealing from Senior Brother Zhao, I heard Senior Brother Pei say that when you investigated the case, you conducted a big investigation, and the effect was very good, and it was this method that made Zuo Yunfeng's master and apprentice guilty." ā
Zhao Ran nodded: "Senior brother has a heart." ā
Dongfang Jing said: "Since November last year, I have started to send flying charms according to the names on the list, inviting everyone to Changning Valley to assist in the investigation of the case, fortunately, everyone has given me Dongfang this face, and so far no one has missed the appointment, so that I can check one by one." As of today, it is the forty-third time, and I have been squatting in the Changning Valley for more than five months, and I have never left, and it has been really lonely these months......"
Rong Niang said with a calm face: "Dongfang, what do you mean, you think this girl is suspicious, so you called me here?"
Dongfang Jing shook his head: "Rong Niang, I, Dongfang, can't stand you, and coaxed you to Changning Valley, but I don't doubt you, and I called you here because I really don't know who to believe...... After checking again and again, my suspicions increased again and again, and I became afraid to confirm all the friends around me, and I even began to wonder if there was any omission in the list I had prepared...... I couldn't find a helper, and I was afraid that when I found out about the mole, I would have enemies on all sides. ā
Rong Niang's face was slightly pale: "Then you told me earlier, I will definitely help you." After thinking about it, he saluted Dongfang again: "Dongfang, Zhao ...... He is certainly not an assassin, before you talk about this, he has already told me about Zhang Yunzhao's assassination, he is a victim of this case!"
Dongfang Jing said to Zhao Ran: "Senior Brother Zhao, I have checked you, the year before last, you were in Guyang County to reform the Qingmiao money and maladministration, and then Zhang Jian Yuan was stabbed, and you were suppressed by Wuji Yuan, so it stands to reason that you should have nothing to do with this case." But you have been to White Horse Mountain, and you have fallen into the summer realm, I asked Pei Zhongze, did you two escape together...... But, where were you before Pei Zhongze met you?"
Zhao Ran opened his mouth to argue, but Dongfang Jing waved his hand to stop: "What I mean by this is not to indicate that you are the traitor, I also said just now, my method of investigating the case is the big investigation you have used, and anyone who has the slightest suspicion will be included in my list...... At least when Zhang Jian Yuan died, you were the first monk to show up next to his body, right?"
Zhao Ran nodded depressedly, in fact, the person who appeared at the scene with him was Zhao Zhixing, a confidant sent by Xuanyuan Guan, but Dongfang Jing made it clear that he was the first "monk" to appear next to the corpse of Zhang Prison, which made Zhao Ran unable to refute. R1152
