The sixth episode of the espionage chapter Undercover mission
Sixth
As a result, a bloody toss was staged in this first evil sect of the Demon Dao, which was sincerely united on the surface.
Located in the interrogation hall of a side hall of the Temple of Ten Thousand Annihilation, Elder Xu, as the chief judge, sat on the back of the coffee table, and Elder Wu and Elder Fan, who acted as deputy judges, stood on both sides of the coffee table.
"Fortunately, our sect leader is generous and benevolent, as long as you state truthfully, know everything, and say everything, we will not be punished today. On the contrary (otherwise), hum, the means of this religion, I believe you are also clear. Explain all your past since you were born, I think you have guessed what is on my coffee table, yes, I have collected the historical files of everyone in the whole sect, I hope you don't lie or hide it with a fluke mentality. What is your motive for committing the crime?Don't force the three of us (don't make it difficult for the three of us), say it yourself!" Elder Xu said lightly, in an extremely vicious and spicy manner.
"Three elders, it's like this...... As for Elder Xu, what kind of person I am, others don't know, don't you know? We have such a good personal relationship, you even arrest 'me'? Are you embarrassed? Ye Meng really didn't kill him!" The hall master of the Dart Slayer Hall was escorted by several dead soldiers under the hall and pressed it deadly, looking at the three elders in the hall and pleading with sad faces.
"Don't talk nonsense! You talked to me about personal relations when I was on trial? Don't you know me, I've always been a businessman! I'll give you one last chance, please answer all the questions I just asked. Elder Xu reiterated it more patiently.
"I just started the trial today, there are so many people up and down in the nine branches of this sect, junior disciples, you don't want to interrogate, first of all, you will be the first to come to interrogate me? Elder Xu, I think you are crazy, right?" The hall master of the Dart Destroying Hall did not believe in evil, and was still expressing his innocence.
"Hehe, sitting in the position of the head of the Dart Destroying Hall, he has hundreds of disciples, and he is arrogant and arrogant on weekdays, and there is no one in his eyes. By the way, I heard that your secret weapon kung fu is rare in the world, you can't deny this point, right? Although there is no eyewitness confession, and the three of us have not found any physical evidence to prove that you killed someone, Ye Meng's death, you are the most suspicious! Come on, pick off all his tendons and tendons, put him in the dungeon of the 'Patient's Hospital', and wait for his fate. Elder Xu suddenly revealed a treacherous look like a hawk-eyed fox smile, and said flatteringly.
Many dead soldiers rushed up, and in accordance with Elder Xu's decree, the hands and feet of the hall master of the Dart Destroying Hall were cleaned up (disposed of) alive, and the scene was bloody and miserable, making people dare not look at it directly, and it was accompanied by a scream like killing a pig.
"Next!" Elder Fan shouted outside the gate.
"Fortunately, our sect leader is generous and benevolent, as long as you state truthfully, know everything, and say everything, we will not be punished today. On the contrary (otherwise), hum, the means of this religion, I believe you are also clear. Explain all your past since you were born, I think you have guessed what is on my coffee table, yes, I have collected the historical files of everyone in the whole sect, I hope you don't lie or hide it with a fluke mentality. What is your motive for committing the crime?Don't force the three of us (don't make it difficult for the three of us), say it yourself!" Elder Xu chanted his exclusive line again.
"Hall Master Ye didn't kill me. When I was a child, I was a child of a single-parent family, and I lived by growing cotton and weaving cloth with my mother, and later I learned to do business with my uncle, and when I grew up, I ......," Disciple A confessed truthfully.
......
"I didn't kill anyone, I didn't kill anyone, it's really not me! I'm a little turnip soldier and a pawn, how can I dare to kill the Ye Hall Master? I grew up in this sect since I was a child, and I haven't been in contact with people outside the sect before I was twenty years old, how can I be an inner ghost? I ......" Disciple B explained excitedly.
......
"When Lord Ye died, I stayed in the main hall to guard the headquarters, and never went down the mountain, and then the Beast Control Valley defected, and my brothers and I have been resisting the invasion of the Beast Control Valley. When I was young, I fled to my religion because of murder and goods, but I was not abandoned by the church and took me in. Please three elders to be discerning, I ......," Disciple C replied calmly.
......
In this way, more disciples of the Temple of Ten Thousand Annihilations came one after another, and they were subjected to the systematic scrutiny of the sect.
One afternoon passed, a little minion suddenly rushed in from outside the door and shouted in a panic, "Elder Xu, it's not a good thing!"
"Don't move around, it's not good, isn't there anything that has happened in this sect these days?, say, what's going on?" Elder Xu still said calmly and angrily.
The little minion hurriedly trotted in broken steps, put his lips to Elder Xu's ear, blocked the wind with his palm, and whispered: "I just found out that in the dungeon, the old man who was imprisoned disappeared and disappeared. The two dead men guarding him had already been killed in the battle against the Beast Control Valley. β
After hearing this, Elder Xu glanced at the face of this minion in horror, his eyes widened, and he almost didn't burst out of his eyeballs.
"This matter is not trivial, and I need to consult the master. Quickly order someone to go and arrest the 'Silver Needle Holy Hand' for me, who else knows about this matter, bring all those who know, and don't leak it quietly. Elder Xu was stunned for a moment, and then admonished.
I saw that Elder Xu led the little minions to run out of the door and go to the sect leader's residence. The interrogation scene was left to the other two elders.
After a while, the "Silver Needle Holy Hand" with extremely high medical skills was put here. At this moment, the old woman was gray-headed and sad, as if she had lost the regular body color that the human body should have. I saw that she was sitting slumped in the hall, without the power to resist, to be precise, she didn't intend to resist.
"Yo, 'Holy Hand', don't come unharmed! Once upon a time, the old man's leg injury was only cured by asking you to apply an acupuncture. Seeing that you are so old, it is not difficult for us to know why we invited you here? Say what you need to say yourself, so that we will not bother. Elder Wu Shang Xian asked politely.
"That's right, I am indeed an undercover agent sent by Quexian Island, but my mission is mainly to heal the injuries of your sect's disciples, and by the way, use the power of your sect to find out some clues to the 'elixir'. I have been lurking in your religion for more than ten years, and I have never done anything that harms the interests of your religion. Moreover, I was entrusted by the 'Jade Patriarch', the owner of Quexian Island, to maintain the relationship between your sect and Quexian Island, and I had no intention of harming it. The death of the hall master Ye Meng has nothing to do with our Quexian Island. I have said everything that should be said, and that's all, if you don't believe it, you will kill or chop it, and listen to it. "Although the old woman is lost, she is very stubborn, and there is not the slightest fear (fear of death).
After hearing this, Elder Wu and Elder Fan looked at each other in surprise, and both of them showed incredible expressions.
At this time, Elder Xu and the Sect Leader walked in with light steps from outside the door.
"Old man, get up quickly. The sect leader quickly stepped forward, helped the old woman up, and said kindly.
"Ah, old woman, thank you!" said the old woman, trembling with tears in her eyes.
"Just now, I heard it all. As the old man just said, I actually knew about your identity several years ago. Guidao's 'Li Xiangu' is a chaste and fierce woman with the utmost affection, and she can be regarded as my confidante, you and I have no suspicions. The sect leader swallowed a mouthful of water and continued to pour out kindly, "As for the secret of the 'Secret of Longevity', this is also what I have been searching for day and night every spring, summer, autumn and winter, but unfortunately, there has been no news over the years. So far, I have only heard a few scattered rumors that there are people in the desert labyrinth outside the fortress who keep the secret of the 'longevity formula', I don't know if it's true or not, and I don't know where the maze is. Oh, immortality, what a beautiful long-cherished wish, however, it is just the extravagant hope of my generation of fellow immortal cultivators. β
Speaking of the person "Li Xiangu", it may be more complicated to introduce. "Li Xiangu" is the apprentice of the "Jade Patriarch" of Quexian Island, and is the de facto ruler and leader of Quexian Island. As of this year, Fang Ling is dozens of years old, and Fang Ling is on par with the sect leader of the Temple of Ten Thousand Annihilation, and belongs to the middle-aged category. The owner of the island, the "Jade Patriarch", is very old, close to seventy years old, and has long retired behind the scenes, she has participated in the decisive battle of Tanggula Mountain. At that time, the strange woman in the immortal cultivation world nicknamed "Jade Girl" used the "Heaven and Sun Protective Body Shield" as a barrier to fight against the persecution of "Yin and Yang Double Evil", but after all, because she was outnumbered and her skills were inferior, she was defeated by the combined magic skills of Yin Feng Scattered People and Burning Yang Rakshasas, and when she was seriously injured and dying, fortunately, "Nirvana Tianzun" and "Big Dipper Star Monarch" arrived in time, so there was a duel scene afterward. "Li Xiangu" was determined to avenge her master, so she got very close to the sect leader of the Temple of Ten Thousand Annihilation. Whoever is the enemy of the Yin Feng Sanren is the friend of "Li Xiangu".
"Sect Master, it's time to get to business!" Elder Xu lowered his head and urged respectfully from the side. Seeing that the sect leader and the "Holy Hand" were blindly "catching up", Elder Xu was a little impatient.
Although Elder Xu was a subordinate and the sect leader was the biggest leader of the Ten Thousand Annihilation Temple, the sect leader still respected Elder Xu for three points on weekdays. First, although Elder Xu is a bit of a betrayal of the old, he is quite shrewd and capable in investigating the case, and the Temple of Ten Thousand Annihilation needs people like him very much, and he can't do without him; second, the sect leader has been in retreat all year round and has formed a habit, even though Elder Xu is not good in every way, but he is loyal enough, which the sect leader can see very clearly.
"Oh, yes, yes, yes. Old man, the 'Nirvana Heavenly Venerable' has escaped from the dungeon, you always know about this, right?" the sect leader still asked softly, "Silver Needle Holy Hand".
"What?' Tianzun escaped? This is impossible! Years ago, I had sealed his brain with a silver needle, and he had not only lost his memory, but had also become a stupid waste, not to mention, he was a lame man with a broken leg, how could he escape! Isn't there two more dead soldiers...... the old woman replied with a blank face.
A loud "pop" sounded, and I was caught off guard, and it turned out that the sect leader slapped the old woman in the face and interrupted the old woman's words. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, the attitude of the sect leader turned out to be completely different, and the face at this time formed a huge contrast with the amiability just now.
"You old immortal thing! If this matter were handled by 'Li Xiangu' herself, she would never spare you. Since the decisive battle of Tanggula Mountain forty years ago, the 'Big Dipper Star Monarch' has sunk into the sea and his whereabouts are unknown, and the 'Nirvana Tianzun' is the only person in the entire universe who knows where the 'Four Sheep Fangzun' is, once his brain marrow is cured by others, the 'Four Sheep Fangzun' falls into the hands of the enemy, and all the people of our two factions will die without a place to be buried. Do you know the seriousness of this matter?" said the Sect Leader with a fierce face.
"The old woman is guilty, the old woman is not good at guarding, sect master, kill me, please kill me!" the old woman cried.
The sect leader flicked his sleeves, quickly withdrew, and left angrily.
"Oh, that's right! Yesterday I treated a number of injured people, and when I sent them out of the courtyard one by one, the person at the door said that he saw a disciple named Tang Dongtuo break in, but he didn't come out. Could this matter have something to do with the escape of 'Tianzun'?" confessed the old woman.
"Such important news, why did you only say it now!" Elder Xu reprimanded.
Immediately afterwards, the old woman was helped away and sent back to the courtyard.
"'Tianzun' is an extremely stubborn old man, for so many years, we can't pry her mouth open with both hard and soft methods, even if someone heals his brain marrow one day, will he tell that person the secret of 'Four Sheep Fangzun'?" Elder Fan looked at Elder Wu and Elder Xu and asked.
"Heyββ! that's not for sure! The key depends on who rescued the 'Tianzun', if it is the person who controls the beast valley, it will be dangerous. The current valley master of the Beast Control Valley used to be a closed disciple of the 'Heavenly Venerable', and the so-called master-apprentice relationship is deep! If we let the Beast Control Valley get the 'Four Sheep Fangzun', we will be ready and wait for someone to take away our souls!" Elder Xu sighed and said something cool.
After that, Elder Xu walked to the coffee table, found a roll of empty bamboo slips, lifted the brush in the inkstone, and wrote hard, splashing ink, not knowing what he was writing. Elder Wu and Elder Fan, who were on both sides of the separation, were also puzzled and puzzled.
After a while, Elder Xu rolled up his sleeves and seemed to be finally done.
"Come, follow the order I have modified, next. Elder Xu called out to his subordinates outside the door, and a disciple rushed in, and Elder Xu stretched out his hand and handed over a roll of bamboo slips.
Even if there is a sudden incident in the sect, the rest of the people must still be tried and continued, and no one can be left out, and no one can be spared.
I saw that Tang Dongtuo, who had a calm expression, was being escorted in by several disciples from outside the door at this time.
"I've tried a basket of people before, and my mouth is dry. Otherwise, start with you and change to a new trial method. Let's play a game called 'Truth or Dare', which takes the form of a question and answer, what I ask, what you answer, if there is any deception, I can see it immediately. Hmph, if I see it, you are ready to be 'collected'! Maybe you don't know yet, nothing can escape my eyes, and any clues will become your flaws. Elder Xu muttered methodically.
"The three elders are above, and the younger ones dare not deceive. What Elder Xu wants to ask, please make it clear. Tang Dongtuo said casually.
"Very good! First question, you have been in this sect for three years, and your relationship with others is not far or close on weekdays, Hu Bao is barely your best friend, according to conclusive information, I heard that yesterday you did not listen to dissuasion, and forcibly broke into the 'patient's hospital', and I haven't seen you come out for a long time. So, where did you come from today? Have you ever entered the underground secret passage of the other courtyard? Are you a guest from another sect lurking within the sect?" Elder Xu asked three questions in a row, staring intently at Tang Dongtuo's eyes in the process.
