Chapter 93 Speculation
When Tang Ning heard him mention He Wengan, she was shocked again. How could he be related to He Wengan? From what he meant, the two of them had seen the vision of the light soaring into the sky together, and these two people obviously He is not a disciple of Qian Yizong.
"He Wenban is only a fifth-level Qi Refining monk with mediocre knowledge. As for the rumors about Jingbei, I think they are just rumors. Such rumors are not limited to Jingbei. Ever since that group of people came, there are rumors of treasures in many places. Is it possible that the entire Xingang is full of rare treasures? Senior Brother Chu, you are too persistent," the woman said.
"If junior sister doesn't believe it, I have no other choice. If you don't want to accompany me to search, you can leave. I swear on my inner demons that I will never say a word to my uncle." The man said. In fact, he was tired of this woman for a long time, but The closed disciple was afraid that she was his uncle, so he kept talking to her patiently and explained that if the ignorant stupid woman didn't rely on the protection of her elders, how could he pay attention to her.
"Senior brother, are you serious about what you said?" She had been walking with him in the deep mountains and ditches of Jingbei for more than half a year. She had long been impatient. When she saw that he was swearing by his inner demons, he immediately asked.
"Junior sister, you can go, but I swear on my life, if I reveal anything to my uncle, I will never be able to build a foundation in this life." The man pointed his finger at the sky.
"Okay, I'll go here." The woman said happily and stepped on the sword. The reason why she was so relieved was because practitioners cannot make vows casually. There is an inexplicable power between heaven and earth. Once a practitioner's vow is uttered, it must be Follow it, otherwise the inner demons will continue to interfere with the person on the way to practice until they are completely devoured.
After the woman left, the man continued to search in the mountains. The black disk in his hand kept emitting a dim light. Tangning followed her underground until the sky turned slightly white. The man put away the black disk and raised his hand. The weapon flew away.
Tang Ning appeared, stepped on the flying sword and chased him in the direction of his flight. Not long after, he faintly saw a figure in front of him walking on a disk through the clouds and mist. He flew for a long time to a mansion outside the county. fall.
Tang Ning kept a visible distance from him. When he saw the man falling, he also stopped and walked to the area around the mansion. The place was very remote and there were few people around. There was only one huge mansion standing there. It occupies a very large area and is quite luxurious.
He came to a restaurant in the county town and randomly ordered some wine and food. After the waiter served the dishes, he asked: "Waiter, I saw an extremely luxurious mansion outside the south of the city. It occupies a very large area and there are few people around. I wonder which big company it is?”
The waiter smiled and said: "Objectively, as soon as I heard your words, I knew that you are not from our Tianping County, right or wrong?"
Tangning nodded and said, "Yes, I'm from Xuanhua County, how did you know?"
"How could we, the people of Tianping County, not know that it was the mansion built by the Langya family?"
King Langya, Tang Ning remembered that Zhao Bao and Zhao Guang had said in private conversations that He Wengan and this King Langya had had a falling out, and she didn't know who this man was in Prince Langya's palace.
"Why does King Langya live outside the city?"
"I didn't say that King Langya lives outside the city. I only said that this is a mansion built by King Langya's family. I don't know who lives there."
"Oh." Tangning nodded.
"Is there anything else, sir? I'll go first. If you need anything, just call me."
"Go ahead!" Tang Ning said. He looked at the food and wine on the table and took a few bites. When he was about to pay the bill, he remembered that he didn't have any silver coins. He hadn't eaten food and wine that he had paid for in how many years, so he couldn't possibly carry something like this with him. .
He had no choice but to take out a spiritual stone and put it on the table, and when the others didn't notice, he escaped and left the county town, stepping on the flying sword.
When the poor waiter saw that Tang Ning was gone, he panicked and ran away to the shopkeeper's reporter, leaving only a stone behind. The shopkeeper scolded him and threw the spiritual stone far away in anger.
"Zhao Bao." Tang Ning called out when she returned to Jingbei Mansion.
"What are your instructions from the Tang Immortal? Bao'er went to Huang Maple Valley to buy elixirs this morning and is not in the mansion." Zhao Guang hurriedly came out to greet him.
"In this case, when he comes back, let him go to my practice place tomorrow. I will see him if I have anything to do."
"yes."
Tang Ning returned to Niutoushan to rest for the night. Zhao Bao arrived early the next morning and handed over a communication note outside the cave.
"Tang Immortal Envoy, I don't know what your orders are." Zhao Bao asked as he entered the cave. His cultivation had also improved over the years and he was already at the third level of Qi Refining. He was stuck at this bottleneck.
"I ask you something, and you have to answer me truthfully."
"Yes, I will tell you everything I know."
"There is a monk named King Langya in Tianping County near Jingbei. If you know his situation, tell me."
Zhao Bao said without hesitation: "The real name of King Langya is Chu Yiming. He is the eldest son of the previous King Langya. He inherited the throne at the age of eight. Later, due to chance, he embarked on the path of spiritual practice and gave up the throne to his son early.
, he devoted himself to cultivation, and those who knew him called him Langya King."
"In other words, he is a casual cultivator and does not have a sect?" Tang Ning originally guessed that this person might be a disciple of Shuiyun Sect or Qingyang Sect, but now it seems that he is neither. He should have joined the Demon Sect. "
"yes."
"How did Junior Brother He Wenwen meet him? How is his relationship with him?"
"I don't know how I got to know this subordinate, but He Xianshi has always had a good relationship with him. He is often invited to his mansion for banquets. He Xianshi also occasionally invites him to his Jingbei mansion for drinks."
Tang Ning's expression suddenly changed, she looked directly into his eyes and asked, "Did anything unpleasant happen to Junior Brother He Wengan before he was killed?"
"This..." Zhao Bao paused for a moment, feeling unspeakably nervous as Tang Ning stared at him. He didn't know why he suddenly asked this question. Hasn't the He Wen case issue already been over? It's all concluded.
Yes, it was the Xu family's fault, so why bring it up again?
"It is true that envoy He Xian had some unpleasantness with him before he was killed, but I really don't know what the specific matter was."
"How did you know that they were having a conflict? Tell me carefully and don't miss any details."
"Yes, late at night, He Xianshi came back from outside and lost his temper. He usually had two maids to sleep with him every night. That day, he drove the two maids out of the room, beating and scolding me and my father.
When I arrived, I asked him what was going on. He said angrily that Chu Yiming was a bastard and everyone in his mansion was a bastard. Let us immediately throw away all the things that King Langya sent us, including those maids.
They all drove them out and told them that they would report to the sect if the worst happened. The two maids who were sleeping with them were originally sent from Prince Langya's palace."
"What happened next?" Tangning asked immediately.
"I don't know what happened after that. The principal He was killed less than half a month after that incident."
"Did King Langya send anyone to look for He Wenban after that?"
"This subordinate doesn't know."
This Chu Yiming is obviously from the Demon Sect. He Wengan said that the fish was dead and the net was broken. It was possible that he had something that fell into Chu Yiming's hands. The two had a falling out and broke up. He Wengan probably did not report it to the sect in the end, because neither Zhou
Neither Mao, Gao Huan nor the disciples of the Inspection Department mentioned this. The question is what did He Wenwen mean by reporting to the sect?
Is it to report Chu Yiming's identity as a disciple of the Demon Sect or to report the vision of the treasure light rising into the sky that he saw? Does He Wenben know that Chu Yiming is a disciple of the Demon Sect? After pondering for a while, Tang Ning asked: "In addition to Chu Yiming in Prince Langya's palace,
Are there any other monks?"
"No, he is a casual cultivator."
Based on this, it seems that the man in the mountains yesterday was Chu Yiming himself. What he said at that time should not be false. He and He Wenwen saw the vision of the light soaring into the sky. Later, the two had differences and fell out.
"I understand, go back! Remember, don't talk to anyone about this, including your father," Tang Ning said.
"Yes, my subordinates know." Zhao Bao responded and left Niutoushan.
Tang Ning sorted through all the information and clues, and had a rough guess in her mind.
The Xu family's collusion with the Demon Sect and the murder of He Wengan may be two independent events. First, He Wengan discovered the Xu family's collusion with the Demon Sect and threatened the Xu family to give them three thousand spirit stones. The Xu family gave it to them on the spot. This is one thing.
.
He Wenban went to the palace of Prince Langya for a banquet, and saw a vision of a treasure soaring into the sky with Chu Yiming. The two agreed that it was the birth of a treasure from heaven and earth. He Wenban did not report it to the sect out of selfish motives, but wanted to embezzle the treasure.
He and Chu Yiming searched for the treasure together. Yesterday, the woman in the forest said that Chu Yiming had been looking for this treasure for five years. In addition, before He Wenben was killed, he frequently went out for several days and did not return to Jingbei Mansion. It can be confirmed that the two men during that time
People should be looking for rare treasures together.
The exotic treasure must not have been found. The two had a disagreement over something and fell out. He Wengan was so angry that he decided to report the discovery of the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Treasure to the sect. Of course, it was also possible that he was reporting on Chu Yiming's identity.
But Tang Ning was more inclined to the first option. He felt that He Wenwen should not know Chu Yiming's identity as a disciple of the Demon Sect. The reason was very simple. With He Wenben's personality, if he knew that Chu Yiming was a disciple of the Demon Sect, he would definitely treat Xu Yiming well.
He gave it a heavy blow like that.
Judging from the information obtained from Yi Tianxing at the Qian Yizong shop in Huang Maple Valley, He Wengan bought three thousand spirit stones at that time, which corresponded exactly with the amount of spirit stones from the Xu family. He probably did not have any extra spirit stones at that time.
.
What He Wengan said about the fishy situation was that Chu Yiming had the handle on him, and it was most likely related to the Xu family.
If He Wenwen knew about it but did not report it privately and took bribes, the Xu family had contacts with the Demon Sect, Xu Qingxian would definitely report it to his second brother Xu Weicai. Xu Weicai and Chu Yiming were both disciples of the Demon Sect, and Chu Yiming might have learned the information from him.
He Wen's case was not reported to the sect in the end. It was a decision he made after he calmed down. He knew about it and did not report it. Taking bribes privately is a very serious crime. If he reported it to the sect, he would not have a share of the exotic treasure, and Chu Yiming would be the one to blame.
Retaliation for exposure is obviously not cost-effective.
