Chronicles of Celestial Origins

"To sum up, I think Tang Ning's suspicion of colluding with the Demon Sect is minimal. What's more, this son has been working as a liaison and aggregator of intelligence for a long time, and he is well aware of the operation of various intelligence stations and the potential infiltrators of the Demon Sect. If he has colluded with the Demon Sect, A lot of details have been revealed.”

"From a practical point of view, these personnel are still continuously delivering reliable information to the sect. Even the senior insider we installed in the Corpse Puppet Sect is able to continue to lurk through him. If we say that he is a secret agent of the Demon Sect, I I don’t believe it.”

Wei Xuande nodded slightly: "Leave it to Junior Brother Tong to personally lead the investigation of this matter! If it is really the devil's secret work, how to deal with it, if not, let him be innocent."

"Okay, the Secret Security Department is already watching him. I will send people to continue the investigation. I will leave first." Tong Quan'an stood up and said

"Qian'er, send Junior Brother Tong off."

"Yes." The two of them left the cave, and Tong Quan'an turned into light and walked straight away.

Zhuang Xingqian returned to the hall. Wei Xuande was still flipping through the file. When he saw him coming in, he handed it to him: "Qian'er, what do you think? Is this Tang Ning a detailed work arranged by the Demon Sect?"

Zhuang Xingqian took the file and looked through it: "Master, why should I ask questions knowingly? Anyone with a discerning eye can see it. This is obviously their secret struggle. Lu Guang and Lu Xingxian have been holding this card for a long time, just waiting for the right opportunity to play it." Come out. Not to mention tricking monks, even a ten-year-old child can see the flaws. "

Wei Xuande shook his head: "This Tang Ning! You are still too young. How could someone else catch such an important handle? You see! This is the internal struggle of the sect. Sometimes it is more terrifying than a strong bow and crossbow. You You should take this as a warning and don’t leave any trace behind when doing things. Once someone catches you, it will be difficult to deal with it.”

Zhuang Xingqian asked: "How are you going to handle this matter, Master?"

"Junior Brother Luo is in charge of Xuande Palace. Even if he has the intention to indulge, judging from the evidence in this file, it will be difficult for Tangning to escape unscathed. Let's see! How much can the Secret Security Department uncover? Come on."

Zhuang Xingan frowned and remained silent.

Ziqing Peak, in Luo Qingshui Cave Mansion, Tong Quan'an sat opposite him. He turned over with his left hand and took out several files: "This is the file that the Secret Security Department presented to me today. This kid Tang Ning is in trouble."

Luo Qingshui took the file, read it over, and coldly snorted: "These people only use some dirty tricks. If they are to face the enemy in front of the enemy, it will be useless. But when they deal with their own people, they are full of strategies."

Tong Quan'an said: "It's also my fault that this kid was too careless and did something unclean, so he got caught."

"Where are the others? Where are they now?"

"The cave has been monitored by people from the Secret Security Department. I have sent a message to Xuan Ying to summon the relevant disciples from the intelligence station to return to the sect for questioning."

Luo Qingshui nodded slightly and said nothing.

Tong Quan'an said: "Senior Brother Wei told me about abdicating the throne a few days ago. I don't know what he is thinking. What's the attitude of Senior Brother Peng?"

Luo Qingshui said: "Junior Brother Peng has always had opinions that cannot be influenced by other people's words. He has his own calculations. But Junior Brother Jiang can fight for them."

"Junior Brother Jiang doesn't have long to live. I don't think he will be easily involved in this matter, unless he can start with the Jiang family boy. Junior Brother Jiang loves his grandson the most, and his biggest wish is for him to form a pill smoothly. If we If I can give him some help in this regard, I should be able to impress him.”

"Junior Brother Shi and the others must also know about this section. I heard that they are already making preparations."

The two of them talked secretly.

…………………………

Inside the cave, Tang Ning stood up and walked out. The sky outside was clear and cloudless.

He stood up from the light, and after a short walk, he arrived at the Hushan Branch Hall. There were very few Xiaoyang Pills left in the storage bag, and there were no Xiaoyang Pills for sale in the sect. The only way to buy Xiaoyang Pills was to go to Duanjishanfang City. .

"Uncle Tang." The two disciples on duty bowed and saluted when they saw him.

Tangning turned her left hand and took out an official document from the Intelligence Department with the seal of the Secret Academy: "I want to go out of the sect."

"Yes." One of the disciples took the official document, glanced at it, and handed him a file.

Tang Ning signed and stamped his name, left the main hall, and came to the front of the light curtain in the south. After waiting for a long time, the light curtain did not disappear. He was wondering to himself.

In the distance, several rays of light shot out and landed in front of him. Several figures of men and women appeared. The first one, with white temples and a broad forehead, was none other than Feng Jian'an, the deacon of the Secret Security Department.

Tang Ning frowned when she saw this, and had a bad feeling in her heart. All these secret security cultivators were here, and they were obviously targeting him.

Feng Jian'an said with a smile: "Junior brother Tang, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting for so long. We said hello to Hushan Ke, and you can't leave the sect yet."

Tangning was slightly frightened, but her expression showed no fear at all: "Why?"

"You are suspected of colluding with the Demon Sect. Now we have sufficient evidence to suspect that you are a spy sent by the Demon Sect. Come with us!" Feng Jian'an said, turning around and winking at Zhou Yingxue.

"Senior Brother Tang, I'm offended." Zhou Yingxue stepped forward, tapped him a few times with her fingers, injected spiritual power into it, and sealed his Linghai Point, Yongquan Point, and Niwan Palace.

The spiritual power in Tang Ning's body was flowing like a rushing river. The few strands of spiritual power that Zhou Yingxue poured into her body immediately dissipated.

Zhou Yingxue's face darkened, she retreated slightly, and said sternly: "Tangning, what do you mean? Are you going to betray the sect?"

While he was talking, several people from the secret security department had surrounded him in the center, and everyone looked on guard.

Tang Ning's face was expressionless: "Do you have the documents from Xuande Palace and the instructions from Uncle Luo and the head?"

Feng Jian'an said: "The Secret Security Department has the right to investigate and interrogate any disciple below the master of the three halls and the three courtyards without any paperwork. Junior Brother Tang, you must think clearly. Fighting against the Secret Security Department is equivalent to betraying the sect. "

"Does the Secret Security Section have the right to convict? Not to mention that I am still in charge of the Intelligence Section. Even as an ordinary disciple, to convict you must go through the joint trial of the three branches of the sect and the review of the master and head of Xuande Hall. You neither have Xuande Hall." There is no document, and there is no handwriting. It is just an investigation and questioning. Can I be restrained in the body like a disciple who is punished for crime? "

Several people looked at each other, Feng Jian'an winked at Zhou Yingxue, Zhou Yingxue retreated to the crowd, Feng Jian'an made a "please" gesture and said: "Junior brother Tang, please!"

Tang Ning suddenly stood up, and several people from the Secret Security Division surrounded him. After a short while, he arrived in front of a hall at Xuanqing Peak, which was the interrogation hall of the Secret Security Division.

Several people filed in and came to a secret room. Wang Zhongye pulled out a flag and pointed it towards it.

A ray of light shot out from the flag and hit the stone wall. The stone wall suddenly turned away, revealing a dark stone room with several stone tables and benches.

This is the interrogation room of the Secret Security Department. The walls and floor of the entire stone room are paved with soundproof stone, while the stone wall outside is made of the God-breaking Stone, so it can completely isolate the sound from inside and outside and the prying eyes of the spirit.

"Junior Brother Tang, please sit down." Feng Jian'an pointed to a stone bench in the center of the stone room and said.

Tang Ning took her seat as instructed, and several people from the Secret Security Department also took their seats one after another.

There are seven foundation-building monks in the secret security department, including deacon Feng Jian'an, supervisor Hu Xiaoqing, stewards Zhou Yingxue, Wang Zhongye, Ma Yi, Pang De, and Hou Jing.

Feng Jian'an sat in the main seat, and the others sat on the left and right sides. After everyone sat down, Tang Ning said expressionlessly: "Now we can tell you what happened!"

Feng Jian'an nodded and said: "Then let's get started!"

Zhou Yingxue and Wang Zhongye turned their hands below, took out the dark green message talisman, and pointed it towards it. The talisman was activated and emitted a faint dark green light.

Ma Yi, Pang De, and Hou Jing dug out the files and started recording.

"Junior brother Tang, now every word you say in this interrogation room will be recorded and reported to the sect, and will be used as your testimony in the three-department trial. You must answer all our questions truthfully. If there is any untruth, "You will be responsible for the consequences," Feng Jian'an said, turning his hands and taking out several files.

"In the past few days, we have gone through all the files on you and done some other investigations."

"We learned that since you established the foundation, every time you go to the shop of the Xiuyuan Peak Pill Medicine Department to buy pills, you start with at least twelve bottles, which is 20,000 spirit stones at a time, and you always use high-grade spirit stones, dozens of Never stopped for years.”

"Every incoming and outgoing bill from the elixir department is recorded. In the past few decades, your consumption of elixirs from them alone has reached 500,000 spirit stones. However, your salary in the early days of foundation establishment was only 500 spirit stones. In January, there are only a thousand spirit stones in the middle stage of foundation building. Where do you get all your spirit stones?"

Tangning said expressionlessly: "Do you think that even if I am a master of the Demon Sect, the Demon Sect will hand over hundreds of thousands of spirit stones to me?"

"Who knows! Anyway, the source of your spiritual stone is unclear, and we need to investigate. If you don't explain this matter clearly, you can't clear up the suspicion."

"No comment."

Feng Jian'an did not pursue the matter and continued to ask: "You are a sect that Daoding joined in 635. You are sixteen years old and your ancestral home is Tangliu Village, Anning County, South China. But according to our investigation, Tangliu Village has long been The village was massacred by the Demon Sect in 627, and no one survived. "Where were you?"

When Tang Ning heard what he said, her heart moved, but her face remained calm: "On May 24, 1627, I went out to cut firewood in the mountains, fell into the valley, and escaped. Later, when I left the village, Is there a problem?"

Feng Jian'an said: "Where were you on July 23rd, the year 712 of Daoding?"

"In July 12, I was the director of the Silver Fox Intelligence Station. As for where I was on July 23, it took so long that I forgot."

Feng Jian'an smiled slightly and said: "Let me give you some tips! Have you ever been to Jiangdong and had any contact with the intelligence station there?"
