Chronicles of Celestial Origins

Soon, Zhang Chi returned to the palace with the entry and exit registration files.

Tang Ning took the file and read it carefully. She found that Wang Suquan had gone out five times this year.

They went out on the seventh day of January and returned on the eleventh.

I went out on February 12th and came back on February 16th.

I went out on March 17th and came back on March 22nd.

I went out on May 9th and came back on May 22nd.

I went out on July 26th and haven't returned yet.

In January and March, he did not go out alone. On March 17, he went out with Qian Yu.

On the seventh day of the first lunar month, I went out with Chen Tang.

"Who is this Chen Tang?"

"He is a monk recruited by our headquarters."

"Are you in your department now?"

"Waiting outside."

"Send him in for questioning."

"Yes." Zhang Chi took the order and led a man with triangular eyes into the room.

"Uncle Tang, this is Chen Tang." Zhang Chi said.

"Junior pays homage to Senior Shi and Senior Tang. I wonder what you want to do by calling me here?" Chen Tang bowed his head.

"Your subordinate Wang Suquan was killed not long ago. Do you know about this?"

"Fellow Daoist Wang was killed? Didn't this junior know?" Surprise flashed across Chen Tang's face.

"According to your department's entry and exit records, you went out with Wang Suquan on the seventh day of January. What happened?"

Chen Tang thought for a while: "Junior remembers that day we first went to Pingshan Gambling House, and then to Chunjiang Pavilion. After playing for a few days, we came back."

"Tell me everything in detail and don't miss any details."

"Yes, around the seventh day of the first lunar month, I met fellow Taoist Wang at the "Xiao Qianfeng Herb Garden"..." Chen Tang then recounted the whole story in detail, but there were no valuable clues.

"How is your relationship with Wang Suquan?"

"It's not bad. They all look down but don't look up."

"Do you know if there was anything unusual about him before he was killed? Or was there something he was upset about?"

"This... junior really doesn't know."

"Call everyone else in!"

"Yes." Zhang Ru responded and left. Soon, several men and women walked in outside. Tangning asked many questions in turn, but did not get any useful clues. He waved his hand and everyone left the hall.

Only Shi Kuan and Zhang Chi were left inside.

"It seems that there is another unsolved case in the house. There are no clues at all. No one is alive or dead. We don't even know when he died." Tang Ning handed the entry and exit records to Zhang Rui and shook his head.

Shi Kuan said: "Junior brother Tang, there is no need to be discouraged. Our sect has always had many unsolved cases. Although Xuantang City is peaceful, there is no guarantee that a murderer will be killed due to friction and conflicts caused by personal grudges. This is not a new thing in any sect. It happens from time to time that you don't see people alive or dead, and I don't think the alliance will punish you for this. "

This is true, and there will definitely be no punishment, but if you fail to complete the task, there will be no reward for your meritorious service. It is equivalent to a wasted trip. At most, it will be reimbursed for the round-trip travel expenses.

There are clear regulations on the merit reward system within Qingwu Camp. All tasks are divided into corresponding levels, and then rewards are issued according to the task level.

All tasks are divided into levels one, two, three, four and five.

Each level is divided into four sub-levels: A, B, C, and D, for a total of twenty levels.

Investigating the disappearance and murder of Wang Suquan is a Level 5A task, which was clearly stated in the file Yu Gan handed him.

This level division is not set by the alliance, but by the sect. Each level represents the corresponding cultivation level.

The first level is a task at the level of the Fusion Monk, the second level is a task at the level of the Void Refining Monk, the third level is a task at the level of the God Transformation Monk, the fourth level is a task at the level of the Nascent Soul Monk, and the fifth level is a task at the level of the Golden Core Monk.

The four levels of A, B, C, and D depend on the importance of the task. As for the task levels below Jindan, they are uniformly counted as five-level D and other tasks.

Wang Suquan is a Golden Core cultivator. According to the level classification, he is definitely the fifth level. Since he was killed and died, the sect has clearly stipulated that all tasks related to the casualties of disciples are of the highest level, so they are counted as fifth-level A-level tasks.

The sect has clear reward regulations for each level. The fifth-level D level task is twenty points of merit and two hundred thousand spiritual stones.

Level 5 C tasks require 40 merit points and 400,000 spiritual stones.

The fifth-level second-class mission is sixty points of merit plus six hundred thousand spiritual stones.

The fifth-level first-class mission is 80 points of merit and 800,000 spiritual stones.

The fourth level D level mission is 150 points of merit plus 1.5 million spiritual stones.

Level 4 C tasks require 200 merit points and 2 million spiritual stones.

And so on...

Of course, in addition to rewards, the sect also has corresponding punishment regulations, and punishments are determined based on financial losses. As long as there are no financial losses, there will be no penalties even if the task is not completed.

For example, if you cause a loss of one million spiritual stones to the sect, you will be punished by deducting 20 points of merit reward and 200,000 spiritual stones.

If you cause a loss of two million to the sect, you will be punished by deducting 40 points of merit reward and 400,000 spirit stones, and so on.

Both rewards and punishments are distributed according to the number of people.

If she completes this task, Tang Ning can receive 40 points of merit and a reward of 400,000 spirit stones.

The other two disciples will also receive twenty merit points and two hundred thousand spirit stones as rewards.

Gein Tangning is the captain of this mission, so the merit rewards he can receive are higher than them.

"Senior Brother Shi, I have something to ask for your help." Tangning was naturally not willing to go on this trip in vain. Besides, the investigation had not yet started. Even if she gave up on this mission, she at least needed to understand the corresponding situation before she could go back. Return to life.

"Junior Brother Tang, if you need anything, just ask. I will try my best to help you if I can."

"That's it. We are not familiar with the place here. Please ask Senior Brother Shi to send someone to help us investigate this case."

"For this matter, Zhang Chi, just accompany Junior Brother Tang for a walk!"

"Yes." Zhang Chi responded.

"Then I won't bother you any more and say goodbye." Tangning stood up and said.

"I'll see off Junior Brother Tang." Several people filed out of the hall and left the light curtain. Zhang Re handed the formation disk back to Shi Kuan, and followed the three of them as they escaped from the light and headed southwest.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, the group of people disappeared and landed on the top of a mountain. Tangning said, "In order to improve efficiency, I think it would be better for us to work separately and investigate the clues individually. What do you think?"

"I will obey Uncle Tang's instructions in everything I do," Jin Yuan and Zhuang Xian said.

Tang Ning said: "We don't have any important clues in our hands, so we can only explore on our own. It is now known that Wang Suquan went to Pingshan Gambling House and Chunjiang Pavilion before his disappearance. Let's do this! Jin Yuan, you go to Pingshan Gambling House to find out the news. ”

"Zhuang Xian, go to Chunjiang Attic to look for clues."

"Zhang Chi and I went to the last place where Wang Suquan went after his disappearance, Shangmingting City."

"Regardless of whether there are clues or not, we will gather here within ten days and discuss countermeasures then."

"Yes." The two responded and went their separate ways.

Tang Ning Tu Guang and Zhang Re were transported for less than a day to Shang Ming Pavilion City.

In front of the majestic and majestic mansion, a man dressed in the attire of the Chamber of Commerce came forward and saluted: "I don't know who the senior is? This is the residence of Lord Jin of our Chamber of Commerce."

"Please let me know, fellow Daoist Jin, that Tang Ning, a disciple of Taixuan Sect, is here to visit."

"Senior, please wait a moment." The man said, turned around and entered the inner room.

Shangmingting City was originally under the jurisdiction of the Xiaoyue Sect of the Xuanmen sect in this pavilion. Since the Xiaoyue Sect was weak and unable to handle all aspects of relations, it leased and sold Tingcheng to the Chamber of Commerce, charging only a fixed rent every year. Tingcheng is actually managed by the Chamber of Commerce.

The man named Jin who Tang Ning came to visit is Jin Yuan, the manager of the Chamber of Commerce stationed here, who is responsible for the coordination of internal and external items.

Not long after, the man from the Chamber of Commerce came back to him and saluted, "Master Jin, please come in, senior."

The two of them entered the inner room and came to the central hall. After waiting for a while, a middle-aged man with red phoenix eyes came in from outside.

"I, Tang Ning, a disciple of the Sixth Division directly under the Taixuan Sect stationed in Xuantang City, have taken the liberty of harassing Fellow Daoist Jin, and I hope Haihan will do so."

"Fellow Taoist Tang, please take a seat." Jin Yuan bowed his head in return, and the two of them sat down separately: "I don't know if you are here, what can I ask you to teach me?"

"To be honest, Tang was ordered by the headquarters team to investigate the disappearance and murder of Wang Suquan, a disciple stationed in our pavilion. As far as we know, Wang Suquan came to Tingcheng to buy some spiritual supplies before he disappeared. So I came here to look for some clues. I wonder if it would be convenient for our friends in Jindao to let us check the transaction list of your chamber of commerce?”

Jin Yuan said: "How come you don't see fellow Taoist Shi Kuan, the person in charge of your sect stationed in this pavilion?"

"Senior Brother Shi has other important matters to deal with and has sent his subordinate disciple Zhang Chi here. Could it be that fellow Taoist Jin suspects that he is pretending to be a disciple of our sect but actually has other agendas?"

"Hey! Don't get me wrong, Fellow Taoist Tang. Fellow Taoist Shi and I have known each other for many years, and I have met Zhang Chi several times. How could I doubt Fellow Taoist? I haven't seen Fellow Taoist Shi for a long time, and I wanted to have a drink with him, so I casually said ask."

"So that's the case. It's Tang who judged a gentleman with a villain's heart. Tang needs to apologize to fellow Taoist here."

"You're welcome, Fellow Daoist Tang. In principle, we do not allow outsiders to view our department's transaction list, but since Fellow Daoist Tang is coming from afar, let's make an exception! Someone," Jin Yuan shouted.

Soon, a burly man walked in outside, saluted Jin Yuan and said, "What are your orders, sir?"

"Fellow Taoist Tang, do you need all of Wang Suquan's transaction records in Benting City or a certain period of time?"

"I just need his trading record this year."

"Go and get all the transaction records of Taixuanzong disciple Wang Suquan this year."

"Yes." The man responded and left.

After about a stick of incense, the man left and returned, handing the file in his hand to Tang Ning: "This is a list of all the transactions of Wang Suquan, a disciple of your sect, in Tingcheng this year."

"Thank you." Tang Ning took the file and opened it. It clearly recorded that Wang Suquan had purchased ten bottles of Yuanyang Pill at Xianyuan Store on May 11th. There were no other records.
