Chapter 241 Transition
In fact, if Jiang Tian hadn't heard the other party's self-confession with his own ears, it would be hard to imagine that such a decent-looking figure in power would have so many dark and dirty things in his heart, just like drinking water. It's a matter of course to eat, and I will tell you.

Of course, at the beginning, Gao Wentai, the nominal elder brother of Jiang Tian's predecessor, still showed the same toughness and hidden scheming as his appearance; The names of important persons and the intimacy involved;
But on the other hand, when it came to the real key point, he was deliberately vague, or quietly swaying others; this kind of method of avoiding the important and confusing the public, obviously he played it a lot in his daily life.It's a pity that he met Jiang Tian with an auxiliary system.

Under the reminder of the specific task progress in Jiang Tian's vision, the so-called truth, lies, or useful or useless nonsense, all have only one result.Therefore, the last persistence and scheming he tried to maintain could only turn into targeted pain and torture for his body.

Although Gao Wentai seems to be a treacherous and evil person who has to use all means to get to this position step by step; but he also obviously overestimated his will and his body's ability to endure.So, in the end, he found that he couldn't ask for death at all, and even his broken limbs were forcibly restored.

So amidst the upheaval of the body and the confusion of the mind, he gradually collapsed completely.In the end, he simply shed tears and salivated, and he realized that the first enlightenment in life in his early years was actually a good deed due to the temptation of the elders and concubines, and the past events deep in his memory were revealed.

Not to mention, the eye-opening tricks he and his wife, who are respectful in name, each played in private.However, when it comes to the "noble man" back then, they conceal it in an inexplicable manner, as if the identity of the other party is revealed, there will be a more terrifying end.

Therefore, Jiang Tian could only inductively get some description fragments from the mouth of Gao Wentai, who was becoming more and more delirious.For example, he didn't know the specific identity of the other party, but only knew that he was an extremely noble person in the royal family; from the beginning to the end, there was only a double-faced relationship, and he still wore a hat.

And the only respect everyone has for him is "Master".But obviously extremely powerful and powerful, just an understatement, Gao Wentai, who was still unknown at the time, can be completely reborn, and his official career, future, and family business have all become smooth.

But after that, he occasionally kept in touch in private, mainly to maintain communication and mutual assistance among these subordinates, but he seldom asked for his rewards and feedback.Until one day a message was sent suddenly, hoping that he, who was on duty somewhere in the Royal Street at that time, would lead the team to set off a little later.

Then, what happened that night caused many heads and hats to fall to the ground; and Gao Wentai, who was delayed on his errand because of sudden dysentery, was inevitably implicated; Niu Beishen was demoted overnight as a guard of the Eastern Capital.

However, this also became the opportunity and turning point for him, who has been keeping his mouth shut all along, to rise again in his official career.After a few years of silence as a guard at the side gate of the Eastern Capital Imperial City, he was suddenly transferred to Shendu Garden, where he was changed to be a listener in Shangyang Palace, and then he met the former Duke Mu who accompanied him on a tour.

Therefore, he also had some vague guesses.During that Shangyuan night that year, was it possible that under some kind of behind-the-scenes planning, several people, including him, intentionally or unintentionally became accomplices and helpers in this big case.Then, they were asked to leave Beijing temporarily for various reasons.

For example, Peng Wenju, one of the persons in charge of the dredging and cleaning project of the Royal Street, was demoted from the capital just the day before the incident because the ditch he presided over collapsed and hurt people; My husband happens to be in charge of supervising the palace lantern floats.

However, it was later revealed that he was negligent and slack when he was inspecting Huangzhuang;In addition, a Sima who was a thief in Jingzhao Mansion at that time was also found to have unclear accounts of stolen goods after the incident, so he was double demoted and demoted to the frontier for redemption.

Therefore, after so many years of experience, it seems that there is an invisible hand behind the parties who participated in and knew part of the inside story; There will be no redemption; even death and family extinction.

Therefore, even if he never contacted Gao Wentai again.But after he recovered in the Eastern Capital; but driven by a certain sense of worry and crisis, he also intensified his efforts to climb up, just to make himself have a higher position and value; more fetters and entanglements.

In this way, the one who has been hiding behind the scenes will not be easily given up, or it will be too embarrassing and persecuted to him.If Gao Wentai can finally enter the Privy Council, maybe the "lord" who has been hidden for a long time behind the scenes will in turn rely on and fear him?
However, since Jiang Tian has tracked him down, it means that his backlog of secrets and inside information for many years, as well as various ambitions, desires, and appeals; all come to an end here.Whether it's for the numerous bones he stepped on all the way, or for the follow-up needs of keeping secrets.

After listening to Gao Wentailu's continuous confession, Jiang Tian jumped out of the "Late Salvation"/"Sinking Light" task progress, and unknowingly rose to "57%"; But it triggers the prompt of the fourth stage to "seek the root and trace the source".

As a harvest, there are no unlocks or triggers this time, more new auxiliary modules/modes.But the auxiliary module that was originally selected: "(Nice/Unlocked)/(Extended)/(Enlarged) Choose one of the two" has resurfaced again.Then it was hidden by Jiang Tian again.

Because he didn't intend to make a decision right away.On the other hand, it is the synthesis/superposition mode in the field of vision panel: (field/familiarity: 100%); it can already consume energy to advance.Disappears with two unit quanta, and becomes composite/stack mode: (Field/Experience: 1%)

The effect of activating and loading the "field" has also undergone obvious changes in Jiang Tian's perception.Originally, it consumes 0.01 unit/second of energy to create a 10X10-step weakened gravity range around you; or concentrate on a target to form a short-term weightless effect.

But now, it consumes 0.02 units/second of energy, creates a 20X20 step weakened gravity range in the designated area within a hundred steps of the field of vision; or concentrates on a target that does not exceed [-] kilograms, causing an instant weightless effect ; At the same time, the self-loading cost is halved.

If, if the auxiliary module is "detailed", then the activation and response of the "field" will be faster, and the control can be more precise.However, Jiang Tian's good mood brought by his new ability could not be maintained for long, and it was broken by the intensified clamor from outside.

Because the commotion of those intruders outside is really too much noise; plus the current situation in the Eastern Capital is tense and eventful; therefore, the patrolling and on-duty forces in the northern city area have increased several times compared to the past; At this moment, they were all alarmed by the intruders.

Therefore, when Jiang Tian hid himself at the highest point of Gao's mansion and looked out, he found that the surrounding area had been surrounded by an army with bright flames holding sticks and shining armor.And in the surrounding streets and islands, there are still a large number of running sounds, which are continuously gathering.

Therefore, those uninvited guests who broke into the courtyard just now, but were shocked by the guards and generals, and fought together into a group; seeing the situation was not good, they wanted to escape over the wall again.But it was temporarily arranged, and the sergeants on the nearby street floors and tile roofs were shot into porcupines without any shelter and fell down.

Jiang Tian couldn't help but secretly said that he was too arrogant.How could there be no corresponding martial law and defense forces nearby.It's fine if you sneak in secretly, but rush out with great fanfare?
Do you really want to show your ability here and create a new urban legend?The next moment, Jiang Tian saw a huge sphere rising slowly in the neighborhood not far away; he couldn't help but groan secretly, and even the flying boat/hot air balloon for battlefield observation was dispatched.

This is even more difficult to handle.You know, the use of flying boats/hot air balloons in the city as an emergency inspection and monitoring method is one of the contents of the emergency response plan that Jiang Tian just wrote;

While Jiang Tian was hesitating, several flags that he was somewhat familiar with also appeared in the sky above the intersection near the mansion; it was impressively under the command of the old acquaintance Zhu Jie, who was patrolling the four streets on the left and right of Dongdu Jin Wu's disciples also arrived one after another.Immediately afterwards, the banner of the Shenwu Army appeared.

According to the court regulations, there are Wuhoupu, guards, and cavalry guards at the corners of every city gate; there are 30 people at the big city gate, 20 people at the big shop, [-] people at the small city gate, and five people at the small shop.At nightfall, street emissaries use cavalry soldiers to follow the line and shout, and military officers secretly spy on the city square; they master the law of patrolling the police day and night, so as to enforce the law and prevent violations.

And the closer to Da Nei in the northwest of the city, where many important officials and nobles live together in the square area, there will be more inspections by the Yulin, Shenwu, Longwu, and the armored cavalry of the Beiya.Once it is mounted on the armored riding gear worn by these men and horses, it will not be a fun thing to attack on the wide and long street;

Therefore, Jiang Tian carefully observed the front, rear, left, and right lineups, and saw that the unknown intruders had become a turtle in the urn; the surrounding city squares were also illuminated, and the flying boat was suspended in the air. There was no way to hide people's eyes and ears, and there was no alarm Just break out of the holes and loopholes.

He couldn't help but sighed, called out and activated the "Anchor Jump: */*, times 1/1" in his field of vision.A moment later, Jiang Tian, ​​who had nowhere to go, disappeared like a dream bubble before seeing the smoked fire below.
