Chapter 772 – Causality
To An Zheng, this was a very sudden day. No matter who it was, even the laziest person would involuntarily think about what I’m going to do tomorrow. It was just that most people would not do it if they thought of it, but many things would appear in their minds.
Therefore, even if the laziest person hadn’t prepared anything to do, he had always anticipated what would happen the next day. An Zheng was definitely not a lazy person, not only in terms of cultivation, but also in his thoughts. If a person became lazy in terms of cultivation, then at most, he would return to the word ‘ordinary’. If he was mentally lazy, he would at least be an idiot.
But even so, this kind of day was completely unexpected for An Zheng. He had arranged for this day to be packed to the brim. In addition to what he had to do, he also had to take a fixed amount of time to cultivate. Oldman Huo said that An Zheng was extremely lucky. Chen Xiaoyao said, An Zheng’s physique was extremely abnormal. However, if it wasn’t for the fact that every cultivator cultivated day after day more arduously and unceasingly, luck and abnormal physiques were nothing but fart. When it was released, it was loud and clear, and that was all.
A few minutes later, the disciples of the Heavenly Awakening Sect had found out the news about this small sect.
Right now, An Zheng was sitting in the courtyard waiting for the so-called Infinite Palaco continue visiting this small sect called the Hall of Heroic Sisters. From the way the sect existed and the way they passed down their inheritance, the Hall of Heroic Sisters was more like a gang. There was actually no way to differentiate the sects and gangs, although the former claimed that inheritance was their priority, while the latter seemed to be closer to the secular world.
Although the Chivalrous Hall was not big, from the Sect Leader to the newest disciples, there were only a hundred people separating them. The existence of this small sect was something that happened to An Zheng after the incident in State of Yan, so An Zheng did not understand.
However, An Zheng knew one thing very clearly, the people of the Infinite Palace were definitely not people who did not have any goal and picked a sect that could be easily bullied. Although the Infinite Palace was ruthless, but this time they wanted to establish a foothold in the Jinling, so they had to be very careful when thinking carefully.
As An Zheng expected... The Heroic Hall was really not an ordinary small sect.
While waiting for someone to come, An Zheng waited for the disciples of the Heavenly Awakening Sect to gather information from all over the place.
“Sect Master, Chen Shaobai sent someone to deliver the news, Yuwen Wuming and Yuwen Wuchen both said that they were invited by the National Academy to teach, and that they could not contact them for the time being.”
An Zheng frowned slightly. The National Academy walace for the children of the imperial family to study. The two youths of the Yuwen family did indeed have the qualifications to teach there, but … Not long ago, these two people were still kneeling outside the First Extreme Temple for a few days and nights straight because of Chen Zhongqi’s death in the Northwest Phoenix Stage.
“Sect Master, the Jinling Mansion has sent back news that the Jinling Mansion has closed its doors and announced that it is because there iroblem with a constable, so the new Prefect ordered the to close the door and investigate. The commoners outside have already lined up, but there is no response.”
“Sect Master, the disciples that have been sent to contact us have all returned. All the great families have strangely agreed upon this. They all said that they have urgent matters to attend to today, so they have no way to take care of that so-called Celestial Sect in the past.
“Master! It is said that all the leaders of the big sects have left the capital. I wonder where they have gone to.”
An Zheng couldn’t help but laugh... What a coincidence!
There was only one person in the world who could make all the great clans and sects show such tacit understanding. An Zheng couldn’t help but think, could it be that this Infinite Palace was related to His Majesty Daxi Shenghuang? This idea was quickly rejected by An Zheng … If Daxi Shenghuang was related to a sect like the Infinite Palace that was notorious dozens of years ago, then it was only if his brain was full of sh * t.
“Master, the news about the Heroic Hall has been investigated.”
The person who came in to report the news waerson that An Zheng had specially called back from the ship in secret two days ago … One of the group officers under Ou Yangduo of the Great Western Ming Fa Si was called Xie Qingbo. He was a young man who used to be very talented and talented under the Great Western Ming Fa Si, but now he was already over forty years old.
“Speak.”
“The head of the Heroic Hall is called Cheng Suifang.”
An Zheng frowned slightly. This name was unfamiliar.
“This is the name he changed after he established the Heroic Hall. If I reveal his original name, the Sovereign will definitely remember … “He called it the Mastery.”
When An Zheng heard this, his mind buzzed.
“Large Success?”
“That’s right, he was the first division leader of the Great Western Ming Fa Si’s Judgement Division. In front of the Sect Leader … After what happened in State of Yan, he left the Ming Fa Si in a fit of rage. Not long after, he gathered a group of people who were bullied by the Holy Hall to continue working in the Ming Fa Si, and then waved his hand to dozens of martial artists who were willing to follow them and act loyally to form this Heroic Hall. After that, he changed his name to Chou Fang … He, he was not able to find the body, but most of the bodies found in the backyard were broken into pieces, and many people did not even have heads, so they could not confirm his identity. ”
Due to the fact that Xie microwave was one of An Zheng’s trusted aides back then, he was also one of the very few people in the Heavenly Awakening Sect who knew that An Zheng was the former head of Da Xi’s Ming Fa Si.
An Zheng felt that his heart was as uncomfortable as a big rock. Before sending people to investigate, he had a faint feeling that the people from Infinite Palace choosing the Heroic Hall was not something that could be done easily. Now that he was sure, An Zheng’s heart felt even more uncomfortable.
Cheng Suk Fang...
Cheng Sheng left the Ming Fa Si, but he did not forget his responsibilities as a member of the Ming Fa Si. Even if he left the Ming Fa Si, even if Fang Zheng was already dead, he still had to follow Fang Zheng.
An Zheng exhaled a long breath, turned his head and instructed: “Tidy up the corpses, it would be best to distinguish them, don’t mess around … I remember that Cheng Dacheng still had his family members in the capital. He knew that he had offended many people, so his family members rarely showed up. “Send people to investigate. If they find out, then send someone to protect them.”
Xie Microwave lowered his head and said, “As per your subordinate’s orders, Chief …” No, Grand Master. It seems that this matter was planned, the people of Infinite Palace chose the Heroic Hall after entering the capital for the first battle, this means that they are very familiar with the affairs of Jinling, and are even more familiar than us. ”
An Zheng knew what Xie microwave wanted to say, “What you mean is that the Infinite Palace is inextricably linked to a certain great clan of the Jinling, or to a certain high official.”
Xie microwave said, “That’s right, Cheng Suifang was once a member of the Ming Fa Si, so he definitely won’t know too much about this. After your accident, everyone in Ming Fa Si was under the supervision of the Sacred Hall. In other words … Subordinate suspects that this Infinite Palace is related to the sanctuary. ”
An Zheng shook his head: “That slumbering Buddha in the sanctuary, would he have such guts?”
He pondered for a while, and said: “Initially, the Ming Fa Si had six divisions: Judgement, Intelligence, Archives, Tracking, and Reserve. The first thing the Templar did was to take over the Intelligence and Operations divisions. “You should send someone to investigate what happened to the six division chiefs. I have a feeling that this matter is not that simple.”
“The two reports from the Operations Division are in reverse. Because of the guilt in his heart, the Head of the Intelligence Division, Ou Yangduo, did not touch for the time being, but he had already sealed himself away. Chief Cheng of the Judgement Division was almost certain that he had been killed by the Infinite Palace. Chief Liu Xiaoyang of the Hunting Division and Chief Ali of the Reserve Division had already returned to his tribe in the southeast. The only one whose whereabouts were unknown was the Head of the Archives Division, Nian Geng.
“If we search more carefully, I suspect that the people of the Infinite Palace want to exterminate all the people of the Ming Fa Si.”
An Zheng said: “Find our men before they do. If the people from Infinite Palace are really related to the Sacred Hall, then it’s extremely possible that they are faster than us. Previously, Ming Fa Si almost annihilated the Heavenly Justice Sect.
“Yes, your subordinate will go investigate.”
Xie Qian quickly left, leaving An Zheng by himself in the courtyard.
In his mind, he couldn’t help but think of Cheng Dacheng’s honest face. He was a simple and honest man who was born in the countryside, even after gaining a high position. When he first joined the Ming Fa Si, he would send all his salary back to his hometown through the relay station for his parents. Because the Ming Fa Si was in charge of food and accommodation, he had not even spent a single cent in the entire year.
After that, because of accumulated contributions, Ming Fa Si arranged a place for him to live in Jinling, so he didn’t have to stay in the yamen. The first thing he did was to bring his parents over from the countryside. Unless there was an investigation that required him to leave the Jinling, he would always return home, no matter how busy he was every day.
Even though he had become the head of the magistrate, as long as he was at home he would wash the feet of the two old men every night. It was nothing for a man to know how to run a family. He was a man who knew how to carry on a family.
In the Ming Fa Si, Cheng Shen was noerson that An Zheng liked but valued very highly. The reason why An Zheng didn’t like him very much was because this person was a little inflexible in An Zheng’s eyes, even more so than he was. He didn’t drink, he didn’t gamble, he didn’t enter the brothel. Unless it was absolutely necessary to not have any social interaction, he would not treat people to dinner and would not randomly spend a single copper coin. That was why An Zheng appointed him as the head of the Judgement Division. It was because he was upright, and because he had the qualifications.
In his impression, the square-faced man’s face was already somewhat blurry. It turned out that time was really the scariest thing in the world. It had only been ten years, yet a face at the Large Success Stage was actually unable to reappear clearly in his mind.
An Zheng felt very guilty. Because of him, the people of Ming Fa Si were just monsters in the eyes of outsiders. It was a very strange phenomenon, the people all said that the people of Ming Fa Si were upright and were the most qualified law enforcers. However, they did not like the people of Ming Fa Si being by their side, because they were too upright and could not be friends.
After leaving the Ming Fa Si, Cheng Dacheng chose to use this method to continue carrying out his responsibilities as the judge of the Ming Fa Si. He could have left the Jinling. Even if he was not greedy, with the salary he had earned in the past few years in the Ming Fa Si, it was enough for him to liveaceful life in a peaceful place in the capital … Didn’t he know that there were people in the Jinling who wanted to take revenge on the people in the Ming Fa Si?
An Zheng stood up and walked into the main hall of the Heroic Hall. Upon entering the room, An Zheng saw a painting on the wall. It was a very strange painting. The person in the drawing was a black shadow. It was just that it was pitch black, as if a person was sitting upright. His entire body was painted black, so it was hard to tell what kind of person he was.
However, An Zheng was still able to recognize the drawing with a glance, it was pitch black in color. It was himself.
There was a line of words on both sides of the portrait, An Zheng recognized that it was handwritten by Cheng Xie.
On the left, it is better to do good with the good.
The one on the right is: Doing good with the wicked is worse.
