Chronicles of Celestial Origins

In Huajian Pavilion, Fengwei Mountain, in a dark room, Tang Ning sat cross-legged on a futon and was practicing Qi with his eyes closed. He had been detained here for nearly a month. During this period, except for Xie Minghua's interrogation, he had never had any contact with anyone. A human being is equivalent to completely losing contact with the outside world.

Under such circumstances, it was difficult not to have anxiety, irritability, doubts and many other emotions, and Tang Ning was not immune to it. Fortunately, his many years of spiritual practice allowed him to maintain a relatively stable mentality. After experiencing the anxiety in the first few days, he It gradually calmed down.

He sat on the fishing boat regardless of the wind and waves. Since he had lost the ability to control the outside world, he simply stopped thinking about those miscellaneous matters and practiced peacefully here.

The heavy stone door creaked and was pushed open. He opened his eyes and saw several men wearing Taixuanzong costumes coming in. The first two were Yu Qingxiao, the deputy captain of the first brigade and the deputy captain of the direct brigade. Xiao Ran.

"Junior brother Tang, by order of the alliance, we request that you be detained in Tianniu Mountain. Please come with us!" Xiao Ran said.

Tang Ning turned her eyes to Yu Qingxiao, but when she saw him smiling and nodding, she felt a little at ease. The group of people left the hall and boarded the Xuanling Ship that was parked not far away.

…

In the cabin of the ship, Tang Ning and Yu Qingxiao sat opposite each other.

"Junior Brother Tang, to be honest, the bucket you made this time is quite big! Senior Brother He Lian is determined to punish you. If I hadn't argued with him face to face, this matter would have been almost settled. , If you go by his report, you will be in big trouble."

"Thank you so much, senior brother. Tang will remember this sentiment in his heart and will definitely repay me in the future."

Yu Qingxiao smiled and waved his hand: "It doesn't matter to me. The main thing is that Uncle Fang is in the middle. He has put a lot of effort into settling this matter. You know, behind the He Lian is Inspector Hao, and Vice Captain Sima also tried his best to win this position for his nephew Sima Teng. It can be said that he was under a lot of pressure in order to protect you. "

"Uncle Fang's kindness can't be repaid even if he wears a grass ring."

"Uncle Fang doesn't expect anything in return from you. The reason why he has tried his best to help you is because he has high hopes for you. Junior Brother Tang, you will gain wisdom from every experience. Don't act so impulsively in the future. Don't look at the location of our team. It's remote and far away from the sect, but the internal network of relationships is complicated and often affects the whole body. Why are you so angry about those villains? If they make mistakes, you can just report them to the superiors for disposal. "

"Senior Brother Yu said that I was too negligent and I must take this as a warning in the future."

"It's time to reflect carefully. What you did in this matter is indeed inappropriate. I advised you not to tolerate these people at the beginning, but I didn't expect that you would directly kill people. There are many ways to punish them, but you chose the one that is the least worth the gain. Now If it hadn't been for Senior Uncle Fang's protection, you would have been imprisoned according to Senior Brother He Lian's actions."

"Senior Brother Yu, may I ask how the alliance finalized the case and what will be done to me in the end?"

Yu Qingxiao smiled: "I forgot about this matter. The alliance decided to give you three months of confinement and a three-year fine. The case has been reported to the column. This time you are detained in the alliance to announce This penalty is determined.”

Tangning nodded and remained silent.

Seeing this, Yu Qingxiao said: "Junior Brother Tang, this is the best result that can be obtained. After all, what you committed was murder, and the evidence is conclusive. It is impossible to completely avoid punishment. The penalty is three years. It’s just less income at most, but it’s a huge difference compared to being dismissed from office and imprisoned.”

"Senior Brother Yu has misunderstood. I know that you and Uncle Fang have worked hard to achieve this result. Even if Tang is ignorant, how can he be so ignorant? I am just a little worried, will the column agree with this punishment decision?"

"Generally speaking, the sect will not intervene in the punishment decisions and personnel appointments below. Unless someone from above is targeting you, reporting to the column is just a process."

"Do Inspector He and Inspector Hao have different opinions?"

"This handling result has been decided by the alliance. Inspector Hao and Deputy Captain Sima both signed and secured the case file, including myself, Senior Brother He Lian and Chief Xie."

"Inspector He is willing to sign the case file?"

"I think Uncle Fang might have persuaded Inspector Hao, so he had to compromise. In the entire regiment, only Inspector Hao could make him sign the file willingly."

"Did Uncle Fang give Inspector Hao some conditions?"

"This is beyond my knowledge, but it is said that Inspector Hao did not agree with this decision at the beginning."

Tang Ning nodded thoughtfully, and while the two of them were talking, the Xuanling Ship sped towards the southeast.

…………

In the majestic cave in the Tianniu Mountains, a man with a fair complexion, a tall figure and regular features strode to the house and knocked on the stone door.

"Come in." A deep voice came from inside. The man pushed open the door and entered, bowed and saluted: "Uncle."

Sitting in the middle was a thin, middle-aged man, who was the deputy captain of the regiment, Sima Nianzu: "You're here, what's the matter?"

"Uncle, I heard that the case of the fifth team of the first team has been finalized?"

"good."

"Didn't you say that we have to wait until the big meeting before making a decision? How come the decision was finalized so quickly, and I heard that Tangning's punishment was only three months of confinement and a three-year fine?"

Sima Nianzuo raised his head and glanced at him: "Is this why you came here in such a hurry?"

The man said: "Uncle, I don't understand. Three months of confinement and a three-year fine were proposed by Director Fang at the last meeting. Didn't Inspector Hao strongly oppose it? Why was the case settled so quickly? I heard that the case file has been handed in. When we got to the column, did you and Inspector Hao sign and sign? "

"Don't understand? Are you unwilling to give in? Are you still worried about the position of the team leader?"

"I just can't figure out why you and Inspector Hao agreed to this punishment decision?"

"Can't you see any clues?"

"Did Director Fang impose any conditions?"

Sima Nianzu shook his head: "You take one thing too seriously, care too much about the gains and losses of one city and one pool, and instead lose your broad vision. This is your biggest problem. I told you before, if you lose, you lose. Now, stop thinking about making a comeback.”

"But what about you! As soon as I heard that Tangning had committed a crime, I couldn't wait to get rid of him. Do you think that if he is dismissed from office, you will definitely be able to take office?"

"Don't even think about it, why did Fang Dasheng put so much effort into protecting this person?"

"Taking a step back, even if this person is really removed from office and you make Fang Dasheng's face disgraceful, how can he let you sit in this position safely? For the sake of unrelated people, Fang Dasheng's resentment and hatred will be incurred. Do you think it’s a good deal?”

"Take a long-term view and don't just focus on this position. There are plenty of opportunities. After all, Fang Dasheng is the head of the alliance. He has been in the alliance for so many years and has deep-rooted influence. He has a strong voice within the alliance."

"This time you teamed up with He Lian to pull his people down. You became the captain of the fifth team of the first team. You won a game. What about the rest! Not to mention whether he will cause trouble for you or pick on you. prick."

"In the future, if you want to be promoted to brigade manager, brigade deputy captain, etc., will he allow you to do so? It's impossible for you to get the full support of He Lian and Hao Jianren every time!"

"Although Fang Dasheng may not be able to make a person's development in the league go smoothly, but if he targets a person, then that person has basically no hope of promotion in the league."

"Do you want to beat him in a small game this time and lose your future development? Or do you want to tolerate the temporary anger and win the long-term development in the alliance in the future?"

The man was silent for a while: "My nephew doesn't necessarily want to fight for this position. I just wonder why things took such a turn for the worse in such a short period of time. What happened?"

Sima Nianzu said: "It doesn't matter what happened specifically. Really smart people will get key and useful information from the outcome of the matter. You have always claimed to be extremely smart and you are one of the insiders of the case. You should be able to make your own judgment." ”

"Since my uncle is interested in testing his nephew, he should speak out." The man mused, "Director Fang is trying to protect Tang Ning. The biggest obstacle to why the matter has been delayed for so long is undoubtedly Inspector Hao. You have always treated this case as an outsider. I am sitting on the fence."

"When Inspector Hao has a tough attitude, you support Inspector Hao and earn a favor from him. But you don't want to have a head-on confrontation with Director Fang over this matter and deepen the conflict."

"If Inspector Hao no longer insists, you will naturally have no reason to pursue the case despite the pressure from Chief Fang."

"The key lies in Inspector Hao's attitude. In the end, the matter was resolved according to Director Fang's wishes. It was obviously Inspector Hao who compromised on this."

"When the case was discussed at the previous meeting, Inspector Hao's attitude was still very tough. But after this meeting, the case was settled according to Director Fang's wishes. In just a dozen days, such a big change occurred. Only A possibility."

"During this period, an important factor came in. This factor made Inspector Hao unable to refuse. My nephew just didn't understand what this important factor was, which made Inspector Hao act so uncharacteristically."

The Sima Nian group nodded slightly: "Keep talking."

The man paused: "My nephew thinks there are two possibilities. The first is that Director Fang has offered very generous terms. The second is that a key figure has appeared. This key figure may be closely related to Inspector Hao, so That’s why he went out of his way in such a short period of time.”

"Since you have such a conjecture, why don't you check the alliance's entry and exit records?"

"What do you mean? A heavyweight came forward to intercede with Inspector Hao for Tangning's behalf?"

"Didn't you think of it all? Why are you still so surprised?"

"My nephew just made the inference by following the clues. I didn't expect that he would have such connections. Isn't he a monk who was selected after the Qinghai War? Logically speaking, he should not have any background in this sect."

"Who do you think Fang Dasheng is? He spared no effort to help Tangning rise to power. Don't you wonder why?"

The man muttered: "Uncle, who is the person who came to plead for Tangning?"

"If I were you, I wouldn't ask this question. Just check the team's entry and exit records and you'll understand everything. Don't always think of relying on others. You need to think and judge by yourself for everything. If you can't do this, your future path will be You can’t go far after all.”
