Chronicles of Celestial Origins

At night, Tang Ning was instilling green spiritual power into the fairy mother-of-pearl clam.

The storage bag at his waist shook for a while. He took out the formation plate, pointed it at it, and took a photo of the talisman floating in the thick fog into his hand. A deep voice sounded in his mind, but it turned out that it was Zhao Liheng who came to pay a visit.

Tang Ning put away the fairy mother-of-pearl clam, fiddled with it on the array plate, and then left the main room and closed the stone door.

Not long after, Zhao Liheng came from outside.

Tang Ning welcomed him to the auxiliary room, and the two of them sat down separately.

Zhao Liheng said: "Since Senior Brother Tang was released, I haven't come to visit him to congratulate him. I feel very guilty, so I take the liberty of disturbing him."

Tang Ning said: "Why do you and I have to stick to secular etiquette among monks? It's a good idea if you still think of coming to see me. Li Heng, from now on, I will implement a series of measures in the Information Department. I hope you can Much support!”

Zhao Liheng frowned slightly: "Senior Brother Tang proposed to increase financial matters today on the first day of the new year. Is it too anxious?"

"Do you think I am deliberately trying to get along with Lu Guang and be eager to compete with him for power?"

Zhao Liheng remained silent.

"I know that the reason why I was imprisoned before was that he was behind the scenes. If I say that I don't have any resentment, it would be a lie. I am not a saint. In the end, I am still a common person. I love, hate, and have more emotions than others. But I This person has one advantage, which is slightly better than others, and that is that he has always made a distinction between public and private affairs. I will not abandon public affairs for personal reasons, let alone deliberately embarrass Lu Guang for personal grudges. "

After hearing this, Zhao Liheng realized that Tang Ning's move today was not motivated by his will, but must have a set of rules. He felt slightly reassured: "I don't know what Senior Brother Tang is going to do?"

Tang Ning said: "We had an inspector named Qin Gang before in our department. Later, he had a disagreement with Lu Xingxian and became incompatible with each other, so he was forced to leave. This financial discussion was proposed by him at that time. After he left, Lu Xingxian canceled the meeting."

"Actually, his idea is feasible, but he is too anxious. Lu Xingxian has great prestige and deep-rooted power in the Intelligence Department. However, he is new here and eager to implement the plan, so he was squeezed out."

"Now Lu Guang has not been in office for a long time, and his prestige and power are not as good as Lu Xingxian's. And I have been in the Intelligence Department for so many years, and I am not as baseless as Qin Gang. With my status as inspector, I can compete with Lu Guang."

"Of course, this matter cannot be rushed. It needs to be done step by step, otherwise it will be counterproductive."

"Actually, if I had been elected as the deacon of the Intelligence Department, I would have implemented this method. Now I just have a different identity."

Zhao Liheng nodded slightly, the two talked for a while, and then he left.

…………………………

In Lu Guangdong Mansion, Wei Xian sat across from him and said, "Senior Brother Lu, Senior Brother Tang asked for more financial matters when he was appointed as Inspector. What does he mean? Does he want to take over the finance of the department?"

Lu Guang said: "This is for me, you don't have to worry, just do whatever you have to do. If he wants to discuss it, let's discuss it! Just prepare the department's accounts."

"Of course the account can be done. If he keeps insisting on it, it will be a bit difficult."

"Don't worry, I am the deacon of the Intelligence Section. It is ultimately up to me to decide what to do. No matter what his intentions are, I have the final say. If he really goes too far, I don't have to give him face."

Wei Xian said: "I'm worried that he will be desperate. If the trouble gets bigger, it's hard to say how the higher ups will deal with it. Senior Brother Lu, why don't we talk to him first and see his attitude? At least we have to have something in mind."

Lu Guang frowned and said nothing. Logically speaking, since the new inspector took office, he, the deacon, should have met with him long ago to discuss everything and the distribution of benefits.

But the relationship between the two was really awkward. Although they didn't reveal it, they knew each other well, so he never met and talked with Tangning in private.

"Let's do this! In a few days, you can talk to him on my behalf and find out his attitude."

"Okay." Wei Xian nodded.

……………………

After Zhao Liheng left, Tang Ning returned to the main room and took out the fairy mother-of-pearl clam to continue the spiritual irrigation.

The night passed in the blink of an eye. He put away the mother clam, rested for a while, left the cave, and disappeared into light.

Not long after walking, I came to a cave on a mountain peak. With a wave of my hand, the talisman disappeared into the thick fog.

Not long after, the thick fog surged, and a ray of light shot out from inside, revealing the figure of a man with slightly white temples. It was Feng Jian'an, the deacon of the secret security department: "Junior Brother Tang, you are a rare visitor! I heard that you have been released from prison after serving your sentence. He was also transferred to the Supervision Department and served as the Inspector of the Intelligence Section. It can be said that he came to our house today, but I don’t know why.”

"I'm sorry to bother you, but I really have something to ask. I hope Senior Brother Feng can tell me."

"Junior Brother Tang wants to ask who provided those dossier information about you!"

"No, Tang is not here today for this reason. In fact, he is here for another matter. I don't know if I can go to Senior Brother Feng's house to discuss it in detail."

Feng Jian'an was a little surprised when he heard what he said. He originally thought that Tang Ning came here to ask who was behind it, but he didn't expect it, "Okay, Junior Brother Tang, please come in."

The two entered a hall in the cave and sat down separately. Feng Jianan said: "I was ordered to interrogate Junior Brother Tang before. It was not my intention to do so."

Tang Ning nodded and said, "I know that I have absolutely no resentment towards Senior Brother Feng. I am here today to inquire about the massacre of Tangliu Village by the Demon Sect. Senior Brother Feng once said that he has reviewed all the files about me. He must be very interested in Tangliu Village." I know something about the massacre, can you tell me about it? How did Senior Brother Feng know that it was the Demon Sect?"

Feng Jian'an said: "So that's why! After receiving your file materials, we immediately checked your files and found out that you are from Tangliu Village, Anning County, South China. Because you were suspected of being a spy at the time, in order to find out your identity As for your true identity, we checked all the sect’s files on Tangliu Village and planned to start with your origin. Therefore, in a file, we found that Tangliu Village was massacred in Daoding 628, and the perpetrator was. Blood and Bone Sect monk.”

Tangning quickly asked, "I don't know who submitted this file?"

"It was found in the files of the Qingxuan Palace Department. I forgot who submitted the report."

"Can I have a look at that file."

"No problem." Feng Jian'an responded and shouted: "Li Ren."

Soon, a fair-faced man walked into the room and saluted Feng Jianan: "Master, what are your orders?"

Feng Jian'an pulled out a large seal and handed it to him and said: "Take this seal to the archives room and find the archives of the southern region of South China in Daoding 628. There is a dossier reported by the Qingxuan Palace Department. Regarding the matters related to Tangliu Village, please give them to Junior Brother Tang."

"Yes." The man took the seal and left the room.

"Don't Junior Brother Tang know who massacred Tangliu Village?"

Tang Ning said: "I went out to chop wood that day and fell into a valley. Fortunately I didn't die, so I escaped. When I returned home, there was no one there. After several years of wandering around, I lost my desire for revenge. Kuang was young at the time. , How can I know who he is?"

"To be honest, I have always been reluctant to think about this matter. I have gradually forgotten it over the years. If Senior Brother Feng hadn't mentioned it last time, I would never have thought that the Secret Security Department actually knew about this matter, let alone that it was a disciple of the Demon Sect who did the killing. evil."

Feng Jian'an said: "Junior brother Tang really accepted the words that he would be blessed if he survived the catastrophe. I think I suffered a lot in order to join the Qianyi Sect back then!"

The two chatted, and about a quarter of an hour later, the man returned to the room and handed him the file in his hand: "Uncle Tang, this is the file about Tangliu Village submitted by the Ministry of Liability."

Tang Ning took the file and opened it, but saw that it read: The disciple was ordered to investigate the matter of the Zhou family in South China. After verification, it was found that Zhou Yunnan did have an affair with the Corpse Puppet Sect, but it was his private behavior and had nothing to do with Zhou Xiongzhong, the head of the Zhou family. Zhou Xiongzhong was very cooperative and took the initiative to hand over Zhou Yunnan.

The whole incident was written in detail in the file, and it was written at the end.

The disciples passed through Anning County in South China, and on May 28th, they encountered a group of Demon Sect disciples in Tangliu Village who slaughtered the entire village, leaving no chickens or dogs behind.

This team of Demon Sect monks has a total of three Foundation-building monks and ten Qi-refining monks. The leader is the middle-stage Foundation-Building monk. The disciples and Junior Sister Zhao fought with him and killed ten Demon Sect monks and one Qi-Building monk. The early monks were seriously injured and fled.

The leader's technique is a Blood and Bone Sect technique, so he should be a disciple of the Blood and Bone Sect. There is doubt about this matter. It is not normal for a team of Blood and Bone Sect disciples to travel thousands of miles to slaughter mortals, so they are reporting this.

The time at the bottom of the file is the tenth day of June in the year 628 of Daoding. And attached the name, Yang Zhenxuan.

"Is there any follow-up to this matter? Has the sect investigated these Blood and Bone Sect monks?" Tang Ning asked.

"I don't know about that. There is no follow-up investigation on this matter in the files in the archives."

"I don't know if Senior Brother Yang Zhenxuan of the Sili Department is still alive?"

"Yang Zhenxuan is still serving in the Department of Liability."

"Thank you, Senior Brother Feng, for telling me. I'll take my leave now."

Tang Ning left his cave, jumped into the sky, and came to the meeting hall of the Ministry of Liability. The disciples on duty in front of the hall hurriedly greeted him and bowed: "I don't know which uncle you are. Do you have anything to tell me?"

"I am Tang Ning from the Intelligence Department. Can Senior Brother Yang Zhenxuan serve in your department? Where is the cave? Please take me with you."

"Uncle Tang, please come with me."

After a short walk, the two came to a cave.

"This is Master Yang's cave." said the disciple.

"Thank you, go ahead!"

"Disciple takes leave."

Tang Ning waved her hand and the talisman disappeared into the room.

Soon, the thick fog rolled in, and a ray of light shot out from inside, revealing the figure of an old man with white beard and hair. He looked at Tang Ning with confusion on his face: "Why is Junior Brother Tang looking for me?"

Tang Ning said: "I am bothering you because of an old matter. I hope Senior Brother Yang can tell me. I looked through a file in the archives of the Supervision Department. In 628, Senior Brother Yang was ordered to go to South China to investigate the Zhou Dynasty. The family colluded with the Demon Sect and encountered Tu Cun, a disciple of the Blood Bone Sect, on the way to Tangliu Village. Does Senior Brother Yang still remember this?"

Yang Zhenxuan frowned and pondered for a while: "There is such a thing, what's wrong?"

"To be honest, I am the surviving son of Tangliu Village. Does Senior Brother Yang know the specific identities of this group of Blood and Bone Sect monks?"

"Junior Brother Tang was a survivor at that time? But I remember that we searched the nearby ten miles and found no survivors!"
