"There are always some people who are kind-hearted and do not eat toast, but they just want to take the punishment!" Yin Zhiping looked at Deng Lun flying backwards, fell into the temple, walked in with his hands on his back, and ordered his left and right, "Tie him and lock him up first."

"Yes!" Immediately, someone answered the order. A Quanzhen disciple went over and cut Deng Lun's hands back and pressed them firmly underground. Another person ran to search for the rope.

Yin Zhiping then looked at Zhang Yixin and Taoist Shoujing and said, "Miss Zhang, Taoist Shoujing, you two follow me." After that, he turned to Wei Zhitong and said, "Senior Brother Wei, you can deal with the matter here and interrogate the old man Deng. This Tianning Temple is not as ordinary as we thought before."

Wei Zhitong responded, with a little embarrassed face. He had previously discussed with Ning Feng, the original owner of Tianning Guan, and he was also in charge of the merger of Tianning Guan, but he did not find anything wrong at all, nor did he realize that Ning Feng was also a hidden person. Now that something happened, he would be embarrassed when he came to the door, and he was worried that he would leave Yin Zhiping with an impression of being unfavorable.

After Yin Zhiping finally said that, he walked to the hall first, but did not pay attention to the expression on Wei Zhitong's face. Zhang Yixin followed without saying a word, but Shoujing responded when Yin Zhiping called him just now, and then he turned around and followed.

Yin Zhiping took the two of them into the hall, and then walked to the side hall where the guests were waiting. Fang Shi sat down, Shoujing stood in front of him and bowed and apologized, "Shoujing's words are untrue, and he has concealed his original background. Please forgive me!"

Yin Zhiping said: "You tell me the truth first, and I will see if you are guilty or not?"

Shoujing responded and spoke. The original master of the Tianning Temple, his master, Ning Feng, was indeed one of the five scattered people of the Ming Cult. He was originally a member of the Ming Cult. However, except for their master and disciple, the rest of the Taoist temple were not disciples of the Ming Cult. And they were all ordinary Taoists, and no one knew martial arts.

In fact, in addition to the two of them, there were some other disciples of the Ming Cult, but since the failure of the Ming Cult's uprising more than ten years ago, many people followed the leader to travel to the Western Regions, and some escaped in the chaos and escaped from the Ming Cult. In addition, some people transferred other matters outside the country, and in the end, they were only their master and apprentice left.

During the uprising more than ten years ago, Shoujing was seriously injured on the battlefield, and his martial arts were abolished, and he could no longer practice martial arts, and became an ordinary person. Qingyangzi only accepted Shoujing as a disciple in his life. Now this disciple has been abolished and cannot practice martial arts, which means that there is no successor.

After the Ming Cult's rebellion failed, Qing Yangzi was a little discouraged and had not taken any disciples for more than ten years. He just tried every means to cure his disciple Shoujing's injuries, and even he was reluctant to pay attention to the Ming Cult's affairs. However, some of the Ming Cult's disciples who had originally lived in Tianningguan were transferred away one by one by one by him.

But for more than ten years, Ning Feng tried all the ways and tried all the spiritual medicines, but he did not improve at all. Recently, he felt that he was getting older and could not bear to lose his unique skills in his master's sect. So he wanted to travel around the world and find another good disciple to teach him his robes.

But his disciple Shoujing's martial arts were abolished, and he was worried about his disciples when he went there. When the Ming Cult failed, he was a little discouraged about the Ming Cult's career. The Ming Cult's leader said that Sanqiu had been kind to him, and he would not do such a thing as apostasy. However, his disciple's martial arts was abolished, and he was determined to let his disciples escape from the Ming Cult and spend the rest of his life safely.

It happened that when he heard that Quanzhen Cult was preaching in the south and expanded its conception, he came up with a plan and took the initiative to contact Wei Zhitong, who was preaching in Suzhou, and wanted to incorporate his Tianning Temple into Quanzhen's disciples and become the first temple of Quanzhen's religion in Suzhou. His plan was to allow his disciple Shoujing to be able to hide in the Quanzhen Cult. With Quanzhen Cult, the largest martial arts sect in today's martial arts world, the safety of Shoujing in the second half of his life will naturally be safe.

After Shoujing finished speaking, he bowed to Yin Zhi and said in a parallel manner: "Master, he just wants to find a way out for me to arrange the rest of his life after I leave the Ming Cult. He has no evil intentions towards Quanzhen Cult. He concealed his identity, but was afraid that Quanzhen Cult would not accept it because of our Ming Cult. I hope the first master can understand this good intention!"

"So that's it." Yin Zhiping heard it and said, "Youdao is 'a teacher for one day and a father for life'. This behavior of Zhenren Ning is really a kind father-like attitude!" He sighed and continued, "You master and disciple have no guilt except concealing your identity. Today, since you can tell the truth, I will forgive you for being innocent and let you remain in your original position."

"Thank you for your kindness!" Shoujing was happy and bowed solemnly.

After hearing this, Zhang Yixin sneered and said with dissatisfaction in his tone: "So that's the case. I saw Tianningguan suddenly change the ward and became the temple of Quanzhen Sect. I was worried that Ning Sanren had already suffered an accident and was occupied by Quanzhen Sect. Unexpectedly, Ning Sanren took the initiative and gave the Taoist temple to him, which made me worry for nothing for him."

Although Ning Feng raised funds by himself and raised funds from multiple sources, the Tianning Temple was actually a secretly founded by Ming Cult. So, this Tianning Temple is actually a foundation of Ming Cult. Now Ning Feng treats it as his own private person and donates it to him, and has never consulted the leader's opinion at all. She was dissatisfied with Ning Feng's arbitrary behavior in the thoughts of the sect.

Upon hearing this, Shoujing couldn't help but retort: ​​"What does the Saint mean? My master has been working for the Ming Cult for most of his life, and I have lost all my martial arts. Isn't it worth this Taoist temple? Moreover, the master is far away in the Western Regions, so it is inconvenient for the Master to ask for it. However, he once mentioned this to the Wheel King, and the Wheel King also agreed. If the Saint is dissatisfied, please ask your cousin to go."

As one of the three kings of the Ming Cult, Zhang Yimeng, the king of the Wheel, was the highest among the Ming Cults who remained in the Central Plains. He was naturally the leader. He could decide many things about the Ming Cult in the Central Plains without having to go to the Western Regions to ask the leader for advice.

Yin Zhiping was slightly surprised when he heard Shou Jing's last words. When he heard Zhang Yixin's real name just now, he suspected that her name was very similar to Zhang Yimeng, and whether there was any relationship between the two. Now Shou Jing's last words gave him the answer. It turned out that Zhang Yimeng and Zhang Yimeng were cousins.

He didn't want Zhang Yixin and Shoujing to continue arguing over the matter of Tianning Guan. After thinking about it, he said to Zhang Yixin: "Okay, there is no need to argue with you in front of me. I am not interested in listening. Besides, Shoujing is not a member of your Ming Cult now, but from my Quanzhen Cult. Now it's your turn, tell me the truth. Why did you come, and why did Deng Lun capture you, the saint?"

Zhang Yixin remembered Yin Zhiping's previous methods of dealing with him, and hummed in dissatisfaction, but did not dare to argue with Shoujing. After pausing, she said: "I came for my cousin, the King of Wheels, Zhang Yimeng." Then, she said something.

It turned out that she, the saint of Ming Cult, is the daughter of Zhang Sanqi, the current Ming Cult leader, and Zhang Yimeng is Zhang Sanqi's nephew. Zhang Yimeng's father died in his early years to save Zhang Sanqi, so Zhang Sanqi loved this nephew very much. It was even better than his own son. When the two cousins ​​had a dispute, Zhang Sanqi had always been more frank than Zhang Yimeng.

The Ming Cult failed to reign over ten years ago, and Zhang Sanqin was seriously injured at that time. Last year, his old injury suddenly relapsed while practicing martial arts and fell ill in bed. In addition, he was old and felt that he could not survive this time and could not survive for a few years. Zhang Sanqin's biological son Zhang Yiming was a bit arrogant. Moreover, his martial arts and talent were slightly worse than Zhang Yimeng. Zhang Sanqin was worried that he would not bear the great responsibility, so he intended to pass on the position of leader to Zhang Yimeng.

But Zhang Yiming discovered this. He was very dissatisfied and angry about it, so he gathered the close masters of the sect and wanted to come to Zhongyuan to kill Zhang Yimeng to eliminate future troubles. When they discussed this, Zhang Yixin was overheard. She had a very close relationship with Zhang Yimeng since childhood, and she looked more like a brother and sister than her biological brother Zhang Yiming. After she eavesdropped on this incident, she wanted to report to her father Zhang Sanqiu first, but unfortunately, she was discovered by Zhang Yiming, caught and put under house arrest.

Later, she escaped with the help of her close maid, but at this time, Zhang Sanqin's ward had been taken care of by Zhang Yiming and she could not get close to her. Once Zhang Yiming's people discovered, she would be caught again. This would not work, so she left the main hall and rushed to Zhongyuan to inform her cousin Zhang Yimeng about this and let him prepare in advance. After being prepared, Zhang Yiming would not succeed easily.

Shortly after she left the headquarters, she was discovered and escaped by Zhang Yiming's people. Zhang Yiming sent Deng Lun, the Chiwu Gong of the five scattered people, to chase and capture her. She ran away all the way. Although she was caught by Deng Lun several times, she escaped several times with her martial arts and wisdom, and was never captured by Deng Lun.

When the Ming Cult was in rebellion more than ten years ago, she was still young, so she didn't know much about the Ming Cult and strongholds left in the Central Plains. Therefore, along the way, she did not find anyone from the Ming Cult to convey messages to Zhang Yimeng.

On that day, she was about to escape to Suzhou, but she remembered that Qingyang Zi Ning Feng, one of the five scattered people, was hosting a Taoist temple outside Suzhou City, and always used it to hide her identity. She also knew that Ning Feng and Zhang Yimeng were also very close, so she rushed to Tianning Temple overnight. First, she used Ning Feng to get rid of Deng Lun's pursuit, and second, she also hoped to find Zhang Yimeng's whereabouts from Ning Feng. At the very least, she had to pass on the news that Zhang Yimeng wanted to be unfavorable to Zhang Yimeng to Zhang Yimeng through Ning Feng, so that he could be prepared in advance.

But she didn't expect to come to Tianning Temple tonight. Ning Feng had already abandoned the temple and went to travel around the world to find a good disciple. She even gave Tianning Temple to Quanzhen Sect. She didn't know Ning Feng's whereabouts before, but she was probably killed by Quanzhen Sect, so she was occupied by Taoist temples, so she naturally did not dare to tell Yin Zhiping the truth. Now she finally figured out everything.

After Zhang Yixin finished speaking, he bowed to Shoujing and said, "Master Shoujing, I offended you so much, and apologized to you. However, this matter is serious, I hope you will not be able to grudge you. If you know where my cousin is now, please tell me that I will tell him the matter and make him be prepared."

Before Shoujing could answer when he heard this, Yin Zhiping suddenly laughed and said, "Miss Zhang, why didn't you tell me the truth? Brother Zhang and I have known each other for me, and I still owe him a favor. If you had told me the truth, how could I make things difficult for you?" At this point, he stood up and bowed and said, "Miss Yin has offended me so much, I hope you can forgive me!" (To be continued...)
