Chronicles of Celestial Origins

After Tang Ning knew the direction, she ran away at full speed. In less than half a day, she arrived at Zhu Liao's practice place in Liyang County, which was a Taoist temple covering an extensive area.

This temple is built against a mountain, with mountains on its back and water on its back. There is no other house within ten miles around. Tang Ning walked straight into the temple and immediately alerted the monks in the temple. As soon as Fang Ning landed and appeared, two men came to meet him.

"This is the place where Senior Zhu retreats. I don't know who the senior is. What's the important thing about coming to this temple?" one of them said.

Tang Ning said: "I am a disciple of the Qianyi Sect. I have something to see Senior Brother Zhu. You can go and report it."

"Senior, please wait a moment. Senior Zhu is not in the temple at the moment. Let us go and find him."

Tang Ning nodded, and the man flew away with his flying sword.

Another man led him into the first hall: "Senior, please sit down quietly. I will take my leave first. If you have anything to do, I will just ask you."

After waiting for about an hour, an old man with white beard and hair and a dove-shaped face came in from outside.

Tang Ning stood up and handed the sect token to the old man: "Senior Brother Zhu, I am Tang Ning from the Intelligence Department. I have been ordered by the sect to come to Jiangdong to investigate the whereabouts of the Demon Sect. I am here to trouble you."

Zhu Liao took the wooden sign and took a look at it before returning it to him and said: "Junior Brother Tang is a disciple of the Intelligence Department and was ordered by the sect to investigate the whereabouts of the Demon Sect. Why did you come to my small temple? If you have any orders, please tell me."

Tang Ning said: "To be honest, there is information from Jiangdong that Jingyun County has recently discovered the whereabouts of Demon Sect disciples. The purpose is unknown. Disciples from our department sent people to track them down, but they disappeared and were killed. The sect suspected that those Demon Sect disciples had been there this time. Pingjun is here to spy on the Jingping Mountain Spirit Mine, and the purpose is to attack the Spirit Mine, and I have been specially ordered to find out."

"After I set off from the sect to Jiangdong, I lost the whereabouts of those Demon Sect disciples. There was also information that one of the Demon Sect disciples had contacts with Shen Linduo, a child of the Shen family. I heard that Senior Brother Zhu and the head of the Shen family We have a close friendship with Shen Wenjing, so I came here to ask Senior Brother Zhu as an introduction. I want to meet the head of the Shen family and investigate the truth of the matter. "

Zhu Liao immediately said: "Actually, I only have casual acquaintances with fellow Taoist Shen Wenjing. As the head of Jiangdong, I do have some contacts with the local powerful families, but they are all within the scope of sect affairs. It is natural for Junior Brother Tang to meet fellow Taoist Shen. One thing, I will take you to the Shen family to confront his son. If he really colludes with the Demon Sect, I will report it to the sect immediately. "

The two of them left the Taoist temple and went straight to Huayang County. After walking for two or three hours, they arrived at the Shen family's residence.

His house is nestled among high mountains, with no one nearby for more than ten miles.

The two of them landed directly in the courtyard of his mansion, and soon a man came to greet them: "Master Zhu is coming here, but I am not welcome from afar. I wonder what the important matter is for the master to suddenly come to my humble residence? Do you want me to inform my father?"

Zhu Liao nodded slightly: "Go! Just tell Zhu Liao to come to visit."

"Yes, Master Zhu, please wait in the hall later. I will go and report to my father." The man responded and left.

The two of them were led by a maid to the living room. Not long after, a tall and burly middle-aged man with a chin and a tiger's neck walked in. He smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Zhu, why didn't you say hello in advance when you came to the humble house? How many times?" I apologize for my negligence. I wonder who this fellow Taoist is?"

Zhu Liao said: "Fellow Daoist Shen, let me introduce you. This is Junior Brother Tang from the Intelligence Department of our sect. He was ordered by the sect to come to Jiangdong to track down the whereabouts of the Demon Sect. This time, I was entrusted by him to bring him to meet fellow Taoist."

Shen Wenjing said: "It turns out that he is the immortal envoy of the Qianyi Sect. He is disrespectful and disrespectful. I wonder if my Taoist friend from the Tang Dynasty came to the humble residence to give me some advice?"

"Dare I ask Fellow Daoist Shen, is Shen Lin a descendant of your family?"

"It's my nephew, what's wrong with him?"

"When we were tracing the whereabouts of the Demon Sect, we found that your nephew had many contacts with the Demon Sect's disciples, so we came to inquire."

After hearing this, Shen Wenjing's expression suddenly changed, and he said anxiously: "Please believe, fellow Taoist Tang, that although I, Shen Wenjing, am a vulgar person, I will not do such an extremely stupid thing. I have many contacts with the Shangzong, It can even be said that it is precisely because of the care of the Supreme Sect that our current prosperity is possible. I swear to God that I will never do anything to collude with the Demon Sect."

"I believe what Fellow Daoist Shen said, so I went to bother Senior Brother Zhu and come with him to find out. Even though my nephew is collaborating with the disciples of the Demon Sect, it should be his personal behavior and has nothing to do with the Shen family. I know this. "Please call your nephew to come out and see you. I want to ask you something clearly."

"Thank you Taoist fellow Tang for your trust. Please rest assured, fellow Taoist, if that beast really colludes with the Demon Sect, I will kill him." Shen Wenjing said, and yelled: "Here comes someone."

A man strode in: "Father, what are your orders?"

"Go and bring this beast Shen Lin to me."

The man was stunned for a moment, and Shen Wenjing said angrily: "Didn't you hear what I said? Tie up this beast Shen Lin."

"Yes." The man responded and left the hall.

The three of them waited for a long time, and then a man with oily hair and powdery face and a dignified appearance was escorted in. He was tied tightly with a thick hemp stone, and he was really tied up.

"Beast, kneel down." Shen Wenjing shouted

The man knelt down with a bang, raised his head and asked with aggrieved face: "Uncle, I don't know what my nephew has committed, and he wants to tie me up to hold me accountable."

"Okay! Now that you feel aggrieved, let me ask you if you have colluded with the disciples of the Demon Sect and are colluding with each other."

When Shen Lin heard this, his expression changed drastically, and he immediately called him over: "Uncle, you are wronged! My nephew has never known any disciples of the Demon Sect. Where did the collusion come from? Someone must have instigated him to frame my nephew."

Another man next to him also said: "Father, although Brother Lin is a bit of a playboy and hangs around for fun, if you say that he is colluding with the Demon Sect, I will never believe it. Even if he has such intention and courage, he has no such courage." Way! This matter may be framed."

"Asshole." Shen Jingwen shouted: "Fellow Taoist Tang is the Immortal Envoy of the Qianyi Sect. This time he went to Jiangdong to investigate the whereabouts of the Demon Sect. He found out about your dealings with the Demon Sect's disciples and came here to tell me. Could it be that he will frame you?"

Shen Lin looked at Tang Ning with a look of pleading on his face: "Senior, please be aware that I, Shen Lin, swear to God that I will never collude with the disciples of the Demon Sect. Someone must be trying to frame me to death. Please be aware of this, senior!"

Tangning waved her hand and untied the rope from his body: "I came to your house this time to investigate this matter. If you really collude with the Demon Sect, then the family has its own laws and the sect has its own rules. You can roughly understand what the consequences will be. Clearly, if our intelligence is wrong, then we can clear your name."

"Your house is also well-known in the local area. I don't want this matter to cause a stir in the city, so I came here secretly. If I ask you now, you must answer truthfully. If you dare to hide a word, you will be responsible for the consequences. I will not do it again. Xianxin comes to ask for the second time, do you understand?"

Shen Lin hurriedly said: "Yes, this junior knows. This junior will definitely tell you everything he knows and will not dare to deceive even a single word."

"Did you drink and have fun with others at Zuihua Tower nine days ago?"

"Yes." Shen Lin thought for a while and replied.

"Who is he, what is his name, where he lives, how you met, tell me one by one."

"That man has no surname, his name is Qing Linzi. He is a casual cultivator. He and I have known each other more than 20 years ago. Because I like drinking and having fun, I often go to Honghuafang to have fun. He also often goes there, coming and going. We got to know each other. He lives in no fixed place, sometimes staying in a ruined temple, sometimes in the mountains. I have never looked for him, he has always come to me."

"Can you draw a picture of what it looks like?"

"Okay." Shen Lin replied

Shen Jingwen said: "Bring this beast a pen and paper."

The man next to him took out a set of paper, ink, pen and inkstone.

Shen Lin leaned in front of the desk and stroked his brush like rain, and soon he had drawn a portrait of a person.

Tang Ning picked it up and took a look, then took out another portrait from the storage bag, and handed the two portraits to Shen Jingwen: "This is one of our targets. His identity should be a disciple of the Demon Sect. We will send someone I followed those people and wanted to find out their true purpose, but they discovered them and killed me."

Seeing this, Shen Jingwen couldn't help but became furious. He flashed in front of Shen Lin and slapped Shen Lin on the left side of his cheek, sending him flying and slamming him to the ground.

Shen Jingwen put the two portraits on his face: "What else can you say, you beast? My Shen family was almost dragged into a place of no return by you."

Shen Lin's face was covered with blood, and his left cheek immediately became red and swollen. He took the portrait and took a look at it, and cried loudly: "It's wrong! Uncle, my nephew is wronged. My nephew doesn't know that he is a disciple of the Demon Sect. He only thinks that he is an ordinary cultivator." , I didn’t expect him to be a member of the Demon Sect. If I knew his details, my nephew would not dare to associate with him even if he had the guts to do so.”

"I usually tell you to spend more time on your practice, but you just don't listen. You hang around the alleys all day long, fraternizing with some friends of unknown origin. Now that you are afraid of human evidence and material evidence, you say you don't know his identity. Who can? Prove it, and I will kill you now." Shen Wenjing said, using his palm as a sword and about to swing it down.

Tang Ning said: "Don't get angry, Fellow Daoist Shen. It's better to find out more. Even if your nephew really colludes with the Demon Sect, it won't be too late to deal with it after I finish asking questions."

As Shen Jingwen walked back to his seat, Tang Ning said, "Shen Lin, Fellow Daoist Shen just said it right. You said you didn't know his identity. Can anyone prove it?"

Shen Lin panicked: "How...how can an outsider prove this?"
