Chapter 129: Questioning the Case (Part 2)

Zhang Yuelu said calmly: "As long as Director Liu can explain clearly the whereabouts of the 150,000 Taiping money, I will naturally believe it."

Liu Futong was silent again.

Zhang Yuelu was not in a hurry and ordered: "Serve Mr. Liu tea and let him think about it slowly, and then answer after he has thought about it."

Immediately, a Taoist priest brought a bowl of hot tea on a tray. The teacup was an object from the Tianle Palace. It had a lot of mystery. Not only was it made of thin porcelain, as thin as an eggshell, it was faintly translucent, but there was also the words "Yes" written on the wall of the bowl. The five words "pure heart", the wonderful thing is that no matter which word you start to read these five words, they can form a sentence, they are: "you can have a pure heart", "you can have a pure heart", "you can also have a pure heart", "xin ye" "You can be pure" and "You can also be pure in heart".

It's just that Liu Futong's state of mind at this time cannot be linked to the word "pure heart".

Liu Futong reached out and took the tea bowl, trembling slightly.

The tea bowl can be divided into heaven, earth and man. The lid is "heaven", the bowl is "man", and the support is "earth". Generally, when drinking tea, you should hold the "earth" and use the "heaven" to push the tea leaves in the "man". Slowly Sip slowly and savor carefully. But Liu Fu held all the tureens with one hand, holding the "earth" with his little finger and ring finger, holding the "person" with his middle finger, and holding the "sky" between his thumb and index finger. He was very skillful in holding it, and he could see that he often drank it. Tea person.

Not long ago, Liu Futong also drank tea here. Heavy curtains, dim candle shadows, beauty beside him, rich and charming, he is like the king of flowers and peonies swaying in the spring breeze, with the air of a nobleman all over his body.

But in the blink of an eye, he had fallen off his horse and became a prisoner.

He brought the tea to his mouth without tasting it, just like a cow chewing peonies, and just drank the tea and tea leaves into his belly.

Zhang Yuelu closed the file in his hand and said: "Master Su has a saying that is very good. Worldly pleasures and sins of desire are always the enemies of morality. The corruption of the inner soul always starts from the corruption of the outer body. Moral precepts The downfall of life always begins with unbridled desire.”

At this point, Zhang Yuelu paused slightly, and his tone suddenly turned harsh: "For money, for your lovers, and for the children they gave birth to for you, you have completely forgotten your identity as a Taoist disciple. You You don’t have to answer me, or you can continue to take chances and wait for the backer behind you to exonerate you. It doesn’t matter. I have already sent a letter to the Jiangnan Provincial Government to investigate the Yanqing Chamber of Commerce. I just want to find out personally and take the initiative with you. Speaking of which, that’s two different things.”

Liu Futong's face was as white as snow, and large beads of sweat continued to roll down his forehead.

The entire Tianle Palace was silent.

After a long time, Liu Futong said slowly: "I am just a fourth-grade wine-offering Taoist priest, just a principal. Above me there is a third-grade Taoist priest Youyi, and a second-grade Taoist Taiyi priest. If you have the ability, you can ask them."

This was what Zhang Yuelu was waiting for, and he immediately said to Mu Jin, "Very good, put it on record."

After Mu Jin finished recording, she handed the more than ten pages of interview records to Zhang Yuelu.

Zhang Yuelu browsed through it to confirm that it was correct, and concluded: "Maintaining inappropriate relationships with multiple women, abusing power, and committing corruption and malfeasance."

Liu Futong had collapsed on the chair.

Zhang Yuelu said softly: "Let's stop asking here today. Let's make a pledge."

Liu Futong's palms trembled violently and he couldn't hold the pen.

The Taoist priest next to him took his hand and put a bright red fingerprint on the confession.

Zhang Yuelu ordered: "Take him down and send our spiritual officer from Tiangang Hall to personally guard him. Don't embarrass him, and don't let others see him."

"Yes." The two Taoist priests helped Liu Futong and left the place.

From beginning to end, Tianyang never said a word.

He was suddenly a little afraid of the little leader of the Taoist Tiangang Hall.

Zhang Yuelu stood up, motioned for Mu Jin to get down, and then said to Eighth Tianyang: "Eighth Deputy Qianhu, I have something to ask you."

The eighth day Yang Yang, who had already seen Zhang Yuelu's methods, was startled and felt a little guilty, but he could only bite the bullet and said: "Excuse me, Deputy Hall Master Zhang."

Zhang Yuelu had a gentle attitude, but got straight to the point: "People in the Taoist sect like to use swords, and not many use knives. However, the imperial court is different. Because of Emperor Gaozu, there are many masters of swordsmanship among the people in black and Qingluan Guards. I checked Su Ran before The corpse was found to have traces of the 'Dayan Spiritual Sword'. I wonder where the master of the 'Dayan Spiritual Sword' is now?"

Although Zhang Yuelu's attitude was gentle, the eighth day Yang felt like a light on his back. He felt like a mirror in his heart. He could only laugh dryly: "This person is an old friend of mine. He is not from Qingluan Guard. He just happened to pass by here." , for the sake of his friend, he helped me. After solving the case, he left here and continued on his way. "

Zhang Yuelu's eyes flashed: "This man is not seeking fame and fortune, but he is very righteous. I don't know his name?"

On the eighth day, he still didn't understand where he was going. When Zhang Yuelu first came here, he didn't touch any situation, so he was fooled by him. Now he has gotten over it. The five days he can delay is his limit.

On the eighth day, Yang deliberately acted tough, saying that he was a member of the imperial court and Zhang Yuelu, a member of the Taoist sect, had no right to interrogate him, but under Zhang Yuelu's gaze, he could not open his mouth.

The two were silent for a moment, and Zhang Yuelu said abruptly: "Where did the eighth deputy Qianhu and Wei Wugui meet?"

"Just in Yongzhou..." Eighth Tianyang said subconsciously.

Just halfway through speaking, he suddenly woke up and looked at Zhang Yuelu.

Zhang Yuelu said with a half-smile, "It is indeed him."

On the eighth day, my scalp was numb: "Vice Hall Master Zhang and Brother Wei know each other?"

Zhang Yuelu did not answer directly, but just said: "Maybe."

The Eighth Tianyang did not dare to say more, for fear of saying more and making more mistakes: "If Deputy Hall Master Zhang has nothing else to do..."

Zhang Yuelu nodded and said: "The Eighth Deputy Thousand Household is up to you."

The Eighth Tianyang left the place in a hurry.

If Brother Wei was here, he might be able to fight with this Deputy Hall Master Zhang. He thought he was no match for him.

Zhang Yuelu stood there with his hands behind his back, looking at the back of the Eighth Tianyang who left, thinking about something.

A suspected member of a secret society ran to "Tianle Taoyuan" to help Qingluanwei solve a serial murder case related to the head of the Taoist sect, and also involved a borer.

What is the motive?

Zhang Yuelu has no clue yet.

But there is one thing, the Eighth Tianyang accidentally said that the two met in Yongzhou.

For Zhang Yuelu, Yongzhou is a very special place. She can even imagine the terrain of Yongzhou in her mind without a map.

With Xingxiu Sea as the center, to the east is Zhaling Lake, to the west is Kunlun Pass, to the south is Tongtian River and Yishan City, and to the north is the vast desert Gobi, also known as Yanze.

After arriving at "Tianle Taoyuan", Zhang Yuelu hardly stopped for a moment. Not only did he investigate the case, but he also investigated the details of the Eighth Tianyang in his spare time. Just as others can easily know the promotion trajectory of Zhang Yuelu, the promotion trajectory of the Eighth Tianyang is also clear at a glance. He once served in the Qianhu Office of Yongzhou and participated in the elimination of the "Killing Eagle and Slaughtering Dog Conference". The person who organized the "Killing Eagle and Slaughtering Dog Conference" was Feng Bo, who had once hunted down Wei Wugui in Xijing Prefecture.

In addition, the reason why the Eighth Tianyang was successfully promoted to the deputy Qianhu of the Seventh Qianhu Office was because he killed two "Tianting" monsters at the Feilong Inn.

Feilong Inn is located in Yanze, and across the Yanze is Xiping Prefecture.

Wei Wugui got the black-clothed man's waist badge from Qin Wubing, and Qin Wubing had also stationed troops in the West Gobi in Yongzhou, not too far from Xiping Prefecture.

In this way, a vague vein gradually emerged.

Yanze, Xiping Prefecture, West Gobi, Xijing Prefecture, Beimang Mountain, Longmen Prefecture, Zixian Mountain.

Yanze is close to Xingxiu Sea, where she and Qi Xuansu were attacked.

West Gobi is close to Cuowenbu, where Shangguan Jing was attacked.

Zhang Yuelu felt that she was only one step away from the truth.

But unfortunately, Zhang Yuelu was not an immortal sitting in the sky overlooking the world, and she was misled again. Because these two places are related to Lingshan Witch Cult.

She inevitably thought of Lingshan Witch Cult.

At this moment, Tian Baobao came to Zhang Yuelu with a letter in his hand.

Zhang Yuelu came back to her senses: "Whose letter is it?"

Tian Baobao whispered: "It's from Master Zhang, but it uses Master Zhang's personal 'Xun Fu Array'."

Zhang Yuelu had taken the initiative to write to Master Cihang, and she also used Master Cihang's personal "Xun Fu Array", so she was not surprised. She took the reply and opened it directly.

Cihang rejected Zhang Yuelu's proposal to investigate Pei Xiaolou and the three Yin objects in the letter, but she mentioned a sentence at the end of the letter.

She had some impression of Wei Wugui mentioned by Zhang Yuelu. She had seen this person by the lake of Cowinbu. This person claimed to be a Jianghu person, but he had Taoist skills, so she was impressed by him, but she didn't know if it was the same person.

Wei Wugui was actually a witness to Yinglong's fall!

Zhang Yuelu's heart was shocked, and she felt that everything was connected.

Wei Wugui met the Eighth Tianyang in the Feilong Inn in Yanze, and worked together to kill the people of "Tianting". Then he went to Xiping Prefecture and participated in the "Eagle and Dog Killing Conference", then went to the West Gobi, met Qin Wubing, and appeared at the lakeside of Cowinbu, where he met Cihang Zhenren.

After Wei Wugui left Cowinbu, he was hunted down by Feng Bo of "Tianting" probably because he killed people from "Tianting". The two came to Xijing Prefecture one after another. Wei Wugui used the power of Taoism to force Feng Bo back and met Pei Xiaolou again.

Wei Wugui left Xijing Prefecture and went to Zhongzhou. On the way, he met Wan Xiuwu and killed him. Then he entered the Ghost Pass with Pei Xiaolou's token and saw the three Yin objects. After passing the pass, Wei Wugui came to Longmen Prefecture, but left quickly. Finally, he appeared in the "Tianle Taoyuan" of Zixian Mountain, met the Eighth Tianyang again, and helped the Eighth Tianyang solve the case.

Now there are only two questions left. Where did this Wei Wugui come from? Where is he going?

In fact, these two questions are the same. As long as we know where Wei Wugui is going, we can catch him, and naturally we also know where he came from.

Zhang Yuelu's thoughts turned quickly.

It has been five days since Wei Wugui left "Tianle Taoyuan". Where will he go?
