Chronicles of Celestial Origins

In the bright hall, several men and women were sitting together.

One of the men with thick eyebrows and big eyes slapped a piece of paper on the case: "You all know this rumor that is spreading so much! Back then, I doubted how a foundation-building monk could be killed for no reason. This matter has nothing to do with his second wife.”

"Yes, now that I think about it carefully, there are many doubts about what happened back then. Uncle Bo'an was intercepted and killed. The other party obviously knew about his actions in advance and was ambushing him there."

"Uncle Bo'an was seriously injured after a fight and ran away. The other party actually ignored him and pursued him, not wanting to kill him. How could this happen if there was no deep hatred and hatred? Not only have we never seen the murderer, but also The elders in the clan don't know either. He is not a monk from Qinchuan, and he has never celebrated the festival before. After killing Uncle Bo'an, he disappeared. What can he do if he is not a murderer?" said another man.

"What's even more suspicious is that after Uncle Bo'an died, the family re-elected the head of the family. Considering the number of people in our eldest house, and Uncle Bo'an was born in the eldest house, Uncle Bo Lun should be elected based on both sentiment and reason. But. The third room unanimously elected Dou Wencai, not because Dou Wencai has been wooing them. Now it seems that he has already planned to win over the third room just for this day. "

"After the second-in-command Dou Wencai was elected, people from his second- and third-in-commands were placed in important properties, squeezing us away."

"It's unbearable. We can't let Uncle Bo'an die in vain. This matter can't be revealed like this."

"Let's go to Uncle Bolun to make the decision. We must let them explain the matter clearly. If they are perfunctory, we will fight them to the death."

"Yes, let's go find Uncle Bolun now,"

Everyone said something to each other, and the crowd became angry. They left the house and left with their swords.

……………

"Bo'an was powerful and virtuous, and the literary and prodigal son took out his heart..." Dou Wencai took the paper in his hand and read it out softly.

Dozens of men and women were bustling below the hall, clearly divided into three factions.

On both sides of Dou Wencai were Dou Bolun and Dou Bingzhi.

"The story is well written. You have all read and listened to this ballad. I didn't expect that just a ballad would disturb my Dou family so much. I know that some of you are talking about me behind my back, saying To be honest, I'm disappointed."

"It's not because you criticize and doubt me, but because you are disappointed that you can't even see such an obvious counter-insurgency plan, and even follow the people outside to make a fuss. A discerning person can tell at a glance that someone is deliberately spreading rumors and targeting my Dou family. Come."

"It's really sad that you, as elite children, believe the truth. My Dou family has fallen into such a state, and a false rumor can drive you so far away from each other." Dou Wencai finished reading the poem and said.

Dou Bolun then said: "Bo'an's death at the hands of the disciples of the Demon Sect was witnessed by many people at that time. There are people behind this matter who are adding fuel to the flames, with the purpose of confusing us. On this occasion, the disciples of this sect should work together. Virtue, cooperate sincerely, if there are people who talk behind the scenes again, they will be dealt with according to the family law and will not be lenient. "

"We need to find out who is behind it and turn passivity into initiative." Dou Bingzhi said

"Yingjie, how are you investigating this matter?"

"Only a few ruffians were found. They said they were ordered by a man. I've been watching for a few days, but I haven't seen that man." Dou Yingjie took out a portrait, which was a portrait drawn by those ruffians.

Dou Wencai took the portrait and took a look at it: "Make more rubbings and post them everywhere in Qinchuan, and spread the word. Whoever can provide information about this person will be rewarded with two thousand spirit stones. You continue to pursue this matter and find the person behind it." "

"yes."

Dou Wencai warned everyone again and waved his hand to ask the disciples to retreat.

"Bo Lun, I know that there are a lot of discussions in the long house, and you need to control it more, especially at this time, we can't have chaos internally!"

Dou Bolun said: "I have reprimanded them, and now the top priority is to find the person behind the scenes."

"This series of things is not simple. The origins of Xiao Mobai and the man who spread the rumors this time are mysterious. In my opinion, the target is not only those Qin Chuan people." Dou Bingzhi said

Dou Wencai frowned slightly: "What do you mean?"

"Both of these incidents happened after Tang Ning came here. Including the incident with Dou Xiao, there were three incidents in total. Isn't it a coincidence that so many things happened in two months?"

Dou Wencai looked solemn, frowned, and fell into deep thought.

Dou Bolun said: "Dou Xiao's incident has nothing to do with him. Didn't Dou Xiao's letter make it clear?"

Dou Bingzhi said no more.

……………

Outside Tang Ning's wooden house, Fangyuan came with a sword. He went straight inside and bowed: "Uncle Master, are you calling me?"

"Everyone knows the rumor, what's the reaction from the Dou family?"

"There is quite a lot of injustice in the house of Mr. Dou. There are several brothers in our intelligence station who are the eldest brother. I made some insinuations and listened to their private discussions. I learned that they were very unhappy. They wanted to ask the second house for an explanation, but they were rejected. Dou Bolun pressed down.

"The Dou family is also fully investigating the matter. Headed by Dou Yingjie, several Dou family disciples followed the rumor spreader and caught the rogue who spread the news. Yesterday, the Dou family released the news. Anyone who can provide clues will be rewarded with two Qian Lingshi, it seems they are a little anxious."

Tangning nodded slightly. The Dou family's reaction was as expected: "You haven't been exposed, have you?"

"No, the portrait they posted is the human skin mask I am wearing."

"Well, it's time to close the net. The Dou family put out a large reward for information, but they didn't come to me immediately. It seems that they have suspected me. If they don't close the net, they may run away." Tang Ning said thoughtfully, he was quite a bit worried. Helpless, if Xiao Mobai hadn't had a hand in it, he wouldn't be in such a hurry, and he wouldn't be suspected by the Dou family.

"Please give me your instructions, Uncle Master."

"Isn't Dou Yingjie looking for you everywhere? Let him know and lure him out."

"Yes, disciple understands."

Fangyuan exited the wooden house, put on the human skin mask, and came to a dilapidated house with a flying sword. Inside the house, a man with sinister features was pulling an old lady, stroking her body with his hands, and gradually taking off her clothes.

"What are you doing? Be careful of that old guy coming back." The woman scolded gently.

"Don't worry, he went away to gamble and won't be back for a while!" The man said, raising and lowering his hands to take off his clothes piece by piece.

"Cough cough cough." There was a cough from outside the door. The two people in the room immediately changed their colors and looked at each other. The woman hurriedly put on her clothes and whispered: "Quick... hurry up."

The man picked up his clothes and climbed over the wall through the back door. Not far away, he saw a man leaning against the corner, seemingly waiting for him.

"Zhang Laosi, do you still recognize me?"

Zhang Laosi looked at it carefully: "Who are you?"

"You don't need to know who I am, I just want you to do something for me." The man said, reaching out and throwing a bag of silver to him.

Zhang Laosi took the silver and took a look. He saw that there were thirty taels of silver. He was overjoyed and said, "What's the matter? Just tell me."

"Get a group of people to help me spread the word. Within three days, I want everyone in the entire county to know about it."

"What are you talking about?"

"Bo'an is strong and virtuous, and he is a talented and wolfish man who steals his heart..."

Zhang Laosi was startled and said with a smile: "Okay, no problem."

"I'll come back to you in three days. I have something else to ask you to do." Fang Yuan said, turned around and left.

When Zhang Laosi saw him walking away, he quickly walked eastward. After walking for more than half an hour, he came to an attic.

There was a sea of ​​people inside, shouting and shouting. There were twenty large tables in the entire hall, and there were more than ten or twenty people in front of each table. Some had red eyes, some had their faces closed from ear to ear, or some were shouting. This is the county. The most famous gambling house in the country.

Zhang Laosi walked through the hall and came to the corner of the stairs. As he was about to go upstairs, he was stopped by a big man in Tsing Yi.

"I said Zhang Laosi, you are also a regular visitor, don't you know the rules? Why do you want to play on the second floor?" the man said

Zhang Laosi had a smile on his face: "Brother Hu, I have something to see Shopkeeper Wang, please let me know."

"You want to see Shopkeeper Wang? Can you meet Shopkeeper Wang if you ask for it? Go, go, don't make trouble for me here." The man in green pushed him out.

"I'm really in a hurry. I know where the person for whom Master Dou is offering a reward is." Zhang Laosi said quickly.

"Are you telling the truth?"

"Absolutely true."

"You come with me." The man in green led him up to the second floor.

Zhang Laosi had never been here before, and he saw that the layout was completely different from that of the downstairs. The entire hall on the second floor was divided into dozens of elegant rooms. People coming and going were all dressed in brocade clothes. Through a crack in the door, he saw the legs of a man in brocade clothes. He was holding a graceful woman in his arms, looking very happy.

The two crossed the hall on the second floor and went up to the third floor. The man in green came forward and whispered something to the man standing guard. The man led the two of them into a luxuriously decorated room.

"What's going on?" A fat man with big ears asked in the main seat with an arrogant look.

"Shopkeeper, this man's name is Zhang Laosi. He said he knows where the person who has Master Dou's reward is." The man in green said.

"What?" The fat man's expression changed: "Do you really know? Where is he? Come quickly."

"Yes. Just half an hour ago, I was..." Zhang Laosi said truthfully: "I know this is the person Mr. Dou is looking for, so I don't dare to delay and report to you immediately."

The plump man took out a portrait from the cabinet next to him: "Look carefully, is this person?"

Zhang Laosi took a closer look and said, "Yes, it is this person."

"Okay." The fat man patted him heavily on the shoulder: "You have made great achievements, and I will not treat you badly. Now follow me to Mr. Dou's house and inform him that you should quickly prepare a sedan and go to Mr. Dou's house."

"Yes." The man in green responded.

…………

In Feilong Mountain, Dou Yingjie was meditating in a quiet room. A man pushed open the stone door and walked straight in: "Brother Jie, there is news about the rumor spreader."

"Oh? It finally appeared. Where is it?" Dou Yingjie opened his eyes.

"It's the news from Dou Shu. He is in his house."

"Let's go and have a look." Dou Yingjie said. After leaving the quiet room, the two of them walked for an hour and came to a mansion in the county.

In front of the house, a bearded man was waiting.
