Asura of Tomorrow's Ark

Longmen actually hides such a secret. No wonder this city is somewhat incompatible with the entire Dayan. Its ruler is actually the brother of the current Emperor of Dayan.

No matter why Mr. Wei did not inherit the throne in the first place, it has nothing to do with Li Ang and the others. They will leave within two days.

Under the leadership of Xuancheng, they arrived at a hotel not far from the port, and then each of them was given a room card.

After putting their luggage in their room first, the three of them gathered in Xuancheng's room.

"Lord Tingwei already knows your purpose of coming, so he asked me to bring this thing to you."

With that said, Xuancheng solemnly took out a cloth bag from his luggage, which surprised Li Ang. In what age are you still using cloth to wrap things?

With a subconscious sweep of his senses, Li Ang discovered that the cloth bag actually contained a set of clothes, a belt, a few pieces of paper, and two items with the same brand. He didn't know what they were for. In addition, there were two pieces. bullion.

When Li Ang was a little confused, Xuancheng untied the cloth bag and said to Li Ang,

"These are the official uniforms, body badges, and waist badges that represent Dali Si Zhi's identity, as well as the talisman for traveling to the Eastern Kingdom. Lord Tingwei asked me to transfer these to you."

"Dali Si Zhi is an official of Dali Temple. From the sixth rank, his main responsibility is to be sent as envoys to local areas to review difficult cases. With this status, you can move freely in the Eastern Kingdom."

Li Ang picked up the waist tag and played with it in his hand. The waist tag was engraved with his surname, first name, first name, place of origin and official position. It seemed to be a small magic device. If it could be activated by injecting the Origin Stone, the waist tag would be His appearance will be shown.

Obviously this is a complete set of identification, but except for the name and appearance, everything engraved on it is fake.

Jingzhe is also quite capable. He was able to produce such a realistic set of fakes in such a short period of time. He must have wasted a lot of effort.

However, with the help of these things, Li Ang's actions in the East Kingdom will indeed be much more convenient. Unless he directly contacts the Great Yan court, who can know that these things are fake.

"I have indeed received your help. When we come back from the East Kingdom, we will naturally come to thank you." Li Ang said, "But... I don't need to wear this official uniform. It's just a fake anyway, and I have no intention of doing so." The acting is so realistic, you’d better take back this official uniform.”

Is it possible that Li Ang still wants to go to the Eastern Kingdom wearing this complicated set of clothes?This set of fake identification is enough.

But when Li Ang finished speaking, Xuancheng looked at Li Ang strangely, "Mr. Li... I think you misunderstood something..."

"Ok?"

"This set of identity certificates... was not forged by Mr. Tingwei. These are all genuine. You can also check the relevant files in the Ministry of Personnel."

"???"

Li Ang can now say that his face is full of questions. Is Xuancheng teasing him?

It is true that Jingzhe is the boss of Dali Temple, but this does not mean that she can appoint her subordinates at will, not to mention that Dali Sizhi is still an official of the sixth grade.

Li Ang believed that Jingzhe had temporarily obtained a set of fake identity certificates to deceive those in the East Kingdom, but now Xuancheng actually said that these were true, and that this information had even been entered into the files of the Ministry of Personnel?

"Don't be ridiculous, does Jingzhe have the ability to appoint sixth-grade officials?"

"Lord Ting Wei does not have this power, but others do."

"This is what Mr. Tingwei and his master mean."

PS. When I designed this plot, the second phase of The Man in the Painting had not yet come out, which led to a possible BUG here - Master Jingzhe seems not as powerful as I thought. Who is the Heavenly Master who has lived for hundreds of years? Jingzhe is the ancestor instead of the master, which leads to a problem. The Yanguo's combat power is a bit too inflated, and it is not the same style as other countries... If it is written like this, it will probably become a fantasy...

So let’s go with what I set up at the beginning. Jingzhe is the descendant of the old heavenly master. This can also explain why Jingzhe became the minister of Dali Temple at a young age... I can only say that this plot is not worth reading. If so, YJ has no intention of writing a longer story at all.

Just follow my design.

Chapter 19 With help from Jingzhe

"..."

Li Ang frowned, not knowing what to say.

"Master of Jingzhe?"

Li Ang once heard Jingzhe talk about her master. It is said that he is the leading strong man in Dayan. He has lived for an unimaginable period of time and has a frighteningly high status. Even the current emperor must treat him with courtesy when he sees him.

Jingzhe was adopted by the Heavenly Master when he was young. Because of this relationship, Jingzhe was able to be entrusted with important responsibilities at a young age.

If that Heavenly Master had spoken, he could indeed arrange such an official position for Li Ang. Even if he was not present and even his identity information was false, it would still be the same. It was just a sixth-grade official position. If it was given to him, it would be given to him. No need to think too much about it at all.

"Yes, this is what Zhang Tianshi meant." Xuancheng nodded and said, "Master Tingwei consulted her master, and Zhang Tianshi made this arrangement."

"...Okay." Li Ang sighed slightly, then pointed to the two gold bars in the package, "Then what are these?"

Although Li Ang already had a vague guess, it would be better to confirm it with Xuancheng himself.

"This is your salary this year," Xuancheng replied seriously, "Dali Sizhi is a sixth-rank official of the imperial court. According to regulations, he can withdraw 30 taels of silver, one hundred stones of rice, and two pieces of silk from the imperial court every year. I have already paid for the silver." You have brought it, but as for the Lumi and silk, it is not convenient to carry them, so you need to go to the treasury in the capital to withdraw them in person or through someone else."

"..." Li Ang couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, a little speechless.

He had guessed correctly just now. These two gold bars were really his salary.

To be honest, Li Ang's mood is very subtle now. Why did he get an official position inexplicably?What on earth is Jingzhe's master doing? Does giving him this official position have any deeper meaning?

Putting aside all the messy thoughts in his mind, Li Ang asked, "Did that old Heavenly Master say anything else?"

Hearing this, Xuancheng shook his head, "Zhang Tianshi just said that after asking you to deal with this matter, it is best to come to Yan Country as soon as possible. He has some things he wants to confirm."

"That's all?"

"That's all." Xuancheng nodded affirmatively.

"Okay... I understand. Actually, you don't need to tell me, I will also go to Yan Country." Li Ang thought for a moment and decided to reveal something to them, "Do you still remember the case that Jingzhe investigated? "

As he spoke, Li Ang habitually opened the barrier against eavesdropping.

"Didn't we find a strange badge in Sami before? I did a little more research recently and made some new discoveries."

Xuancheng's eyes suddenly condensed, and even his voice became a little deeper, "What did you find?"

"That badge is not only a token of identity for a certain organization, but also a prop used for their previous contacts. The specific principle is unknown, but the badge uses the frequency of soul fluctuations for identity authentication."

"If you can find a way to simulate the soul fluctuation frequency of the previous owner of that badge, you should be able to deceive the badge and reactivate it."

Xuancheng almost couldn't help but jump out of his chair. He took a deep breath before calming down.

"This news is very valuable, I will tell it to Sir Tingwei truthfully."

He knew very well how difficult the case that Jingzhe was pursuing was. No matter whether it was behind the scenes or openly, forces were obstructing Jingzhe's actions. Even the Holy Emperor did not agree with Jingzhe's investigation. The water in that case was too deep. .

Unexpectedly, he could get an important clue here. Xuancheng could not wait to return to Dayan immediately and report this clue to Jingzhe.

But there was one thing he had not finished yet.

"One more thing. This is what Lord Tingwei has collected during this period. All the information related to the 'Xianglu Mountain', as well as some things that must be paid attention to in the East Kingdom. I hope it can be helpful to you. .”

After putting all these things on the table, Xuancheng stood up in a hurry, "Originally, I wanted to go to Dongguo with you two, and at least I would give you a ride on the way, but Mr. Li provided This clue is really important, I must return to Dayan immediately and report this clue to Sir Tingwei."

"It doesn't matter. Since this matter is so important, you should go back quickly. There will be no problem for the two of us."

Li Ang said this, and Adele nodded in agreement. They had never thought of asking Xuancheng to help, so even if Xuan left now, it would not have any impact.

"By the way, these things are also given to you."

With that said, Xuancheng took off his pocket and handed it to Li Ang.

The pockets are filled with various talismans, all of which were used by Li Ang and others in Sami. At a rough count, there are almost two to three hundred talismans. These talismans can be used in many ways, whether in life or in battle. The most important thing is that this kind of talisman is very expensive to make. Xuancheng actually gave them all to him. It can be said that he spent a lot of money.

"This..." Faced with this kindness, Li Ang seemed a little hesitant.

"Just accept it. I'm going back to Dayan next, and these things are no longer needed." Xuancheng shook his head and pushed the bag back.

Under Xuancheng's persuasion, Li Ang finally accepted the bag, "Thank you very much."

"Everything has been brought here, so I'll take my leave first. If you come to Longmen in the future, you can go directly to Dali Temple in the capital to find Lady Tingwei. She should stay in the capital for a long time."

After leaving these words, Xuancheng left the room in a hurry.

After leaving the hotel, Xuancheng immediately turned around and walked towards the port area. He was planning to return to Dayan now and not even plan to stay for a quarter of an hour.

He knew very well how extensive the unsolved case back then was. More than one Victoria ambassador died that year, and that was just the first victim. He could even see why the Holy Brother's brother left Longmen. The shadow of that cold case.

Now carrying such a big secret, Xuancheng can be said to be restless, and the means of emergency contact with Dali Temple cannot be used. He does not know whether the information will be leaked along the way. Only by telling Jingzhe this secret personally can he rest assured. , Xuancheng believes that the old heavenly master must have a way to decipher the secret of the badge.

Xuancheng walked hurriedly on the road, but he suddenly found that the atmosphere around him became a little strange. At some point, the noisy port area became silent. Not even a single person could be seen around him. He was the only one walking alone. on the street.

No matter how stupid Xuancheng is, he can still realize the current situation.

He stopped and looked around with a vigilant expression, "Come out, there are so many people looking for me, what are you doing?"

As Xuancheng finished speaking, figures wearing black raincoats and bamboo hats emerged from all corners of the street, vaguely surrounding Xuancheng.

Seeing these strangely dressed people, Xuancheng's heart tightened, and the muscles all over his body tensed up instantly.

"Hei Li...the group of forbidden troops who left with Mr. Wei back then..."

"Master Wei, are you planning to take action against me?"

Hearing this, someone in the black coop said in a hoarse voice that was hard to distinguish between male and female, "Of course we don't dare to attack the young master who is the Minister of Rites, but... Master Wei has invited us, and we also ask the young master to accompany us to Mr. Wei's house to talk. "

Come to the house to talk?I’m afraid this story won’t come out, right?

With a sneer in his heart, Xuancheng calmly took half a step back, and quietly touched his waist with his right hand. At the same time, he said, "No need to thank King Wei for his kindness. I am a little Dali." Si Zheng is not qualified to meet the King of Wei yet."

"So the young master refuses?"

As he said this, the group of black raincaps took a step forward in unison, and their encirclement showed signs of closing.

"Sorry, I still have important tasks to report back to, so I don't have time to waste time with you here."

A confident smile appeared on Xuancheng's face, and his right hand grabbed his waist like lightning, preparing to take out the talisman from his pocket as before.

This time, however, he missed the mark.

Only then did Xuancheng realize that just ten minutes ago, he had given away all the talismans on his body to others.

Looking at the black raindrops approaching one by one, Xuancheng's smile froze on his face.

Jingzhe once said that Xuancheng is a fool.

Chapter 20 Departure

After Xuancheng left, the room became quiet, and both of them were silently digesting the information they just heard.

After a long time, Adele said quietly, "I was a little scared..."

"Indeed," Li Ang nodded, "I originally planned to ask Jingzhe to help me, but I didn't expect that she actually brought me such a surprise."

Li Ang could roughly guess the reason why the other party did this. Although Jingzhe never said it directly, Li Ang still analyzed some clues from her few words, and the information he just received from Xuancheng completed the last piece of the puzzle.

In fact, the Yan Kingdom was not at peace, and the court may have split into two or more camps.

The current emperor is not the eldest son, and his position is not right. Naturally, some elders from the previous dynasty will be dissatisfied with this situation. Jingzhe should belong to the current emperor's faction. The reason why her master directly arranged an official position for Li Ang was to give Li Ang an official position in advance. Mark, so that even if Li Ang goes to Yan Kingdom later, he will not be able to join other forces for this reason.

They would actually do something that might arouse Li Ang's disgust. It seemed that the case Jingzhe was investigating was more dangerous than Li Ang imagined. In order to catch Li Ang, an important witness, they had already resorted to any means.

If he continues to investigate, Li Ang has some doubts about whether Zhang Tianshi can save Jingzhe. Of course, there is no need to worry about Jingzhe's life safety. Even with her position as the minister of Dali Temple... I'm afraid she won't be able to sit still.

When he has time someday, Li Ang can try to contact the mysterious organization through the badge and find out what happened that year.

"Anyway, let's take a look at the information Xuancheng left for us first."

Xuancheng also brought them some information about Dongguo, which Li Ang asked Jingzhe to help investigate.

Although the tower's contact person is at Longmen, Li Ang has no intention of meeting them. If possible, it would be best to conceal the news that they have gone to the East Kingdom. Li Ang does not trust these guys.

And besides, the information Jingzhe can collect is definitely much more comprehensive than what the tower can collect.

This information not only explained the internal war situation in the East Kingdom, but also very thoughtfully marked a safer route for them, which could avoid most of the fighting areas. It also told them about the situation between the Guangyan clan and the Guangyuan clan. The common method among clan leaders, and with Dayan's official position, they would not encounter much trouble from the officials in Dudong Kingdom. The eight major families of Dong Kingdom still had to give some face to the imperial officials.

Jingzhe suggested in the letter that in the name of investigating unsolved cases, he could check the files kept by the yamen in various places in the East. If the legend was true, he should be able to find some clues from those unsolved unsolved cases.

As for the two key place names of Honglizhou and Xianglu Mountain, Jingzhe also checked for him. Unfortunately, Dongguo is still a certain distance from Yanguo, and the clues Jingzhe investigated were also very vague. He only knew that these two were ancient The title "time" has not been used for a long time.

The specific location of Jingzhe has not been found, but it should be in the north of Dongguo, a piece of land under the name of the Guangyan family.

With this important clue, Li Ang and Adele took out the map of the East Kingdom and marked all the mountainous and forested areas in the northern part of the map. These are the possible locations of Xianglu Mountain.

Even if they are unlucky and need to check all the places, they can still complete it within a month, which is much better than Li Ang originally expected.

After discussing the itinerary for the Eastern Kingdom with Adele, the two planned to rest temporarily at Longmen for one night, and then set off for the Eastern Kingdom early tomorrow morning.

But just when they packed up the information that Xuancheng brought and prepared to go back to their room, Li Ang suddenly stopped and then turned to look out the window.

"What's wrong?" Adele asked with some confusion.

"Xuan Cheng seems to have gotten into a little trouble. He was targeted by a group of people," Li Ang frowned, "But...it doesn't seem like he needs my help."

In Li Ang's perception, Xuancheng was surrounded by a group of people not long after he entered the port area. However, the group of people seemed to have some scruples and never dared to deal with Xuancheng severely. Xuancheng seemed to know this, and directly They ran rampant amid the siege.
