It's quiet at night.
Xu Zhen was writing something in Sima Xin's study.
Dongfang Meiyan has left long ago, and she still has to monitor Lianji in the Demon House, and there is no room for sloppiness.
Xu Zhen was also quite strange. This Oriental heroine was dressed sexy and spoke boldly, but when she was knocked over the wall by him, she could still blush. It was really inconsistent.
It seems that people who practice evil arts like Blood Demon Palm have weird temperaments, right?
However, after several days of contact, Xu Zhen no longer had any doubts about this woman, because with her martial arts, it would be easy to kill him, and it would not be so troublesome.
So, Xu Zhen quickly changed his mind and focused his energy on the case again.
In order to sort out his thoughts, he had recorded all the incidents on paper in chronological order.
At the top of the timeline, naturally a hundred years ago, Xuan Taizu Li Xuanzhen lost his rusty knife.
At that time, it was still during the reign of the Xuan Shen Sect. The Xuan Shen Sect's name was Li Chong, and he was the grandson of Li Xuanzhen, the founding emperor of the Daxuan Kingdom.
The rusty knife was stolen from the Imperial Ancestral Temple. I don't know who stole it.
Immediately afterwards, thirty years ago, the Daxuanti criminal officer named Xu Zun deposited five boxes of containers at Wanfeng Bank. One of the boxes contained top-secret files of the internal guards.
Later, Fang Wubing accepted the secret order from Emperor Xinzong, Li Xing, to search for the rusty knife.
In order to find the rusty knife, Fang Wubing broke into a mysterious organization, only to find that the mysterious organization was not the owner of the rusty knife, but was also looking for the rusty knife.
After years of hard work, they suspected that the rusty knife might be hidden in Xu Zun's five containers, so they planned to rob Wanfeng Bank's treasury and steal five containers.
However, there was internal strife before the container was even unpacked.
Fang Wubing killed his accomplice, opened the container, and found that the rusty knife was not in the container.
Therefore, he resolutely chose to sacrifice his future. First he hid the container, and then he was deliberately captured by the government and imprisoned in the county prison in Daguan City.
He had two purposes for doing this. One was to use himself to lure the mysterious organization to search for him, and the other was to lure out Xu Zun, the owner of the container.
By eliciting the former, he can uncover the mysterious organization.
By eliciting the latter, he can continue his search for the Rusty Knife.
However, fate is not as good as fate. In the second year after Fang Wubing was imprisoned, Xinzong Li Xing died, and the emperor's grandson Li Xin hurriedly succeeded to the throne.
As the new emperor ascended the throne, all the plans surrounding Fang Wubing collapsed, all contact personnel were withdrawn, and their lives and deaths were unknown, leaving only Lianji.
From then on, Fang Wubing was completely trapped in the county prison.
Further back, enemies appear.
Lao Li and others lurked into the county prison, constantly instigating rebellion against the jailers, and digging secret rooms in order to get close to Fang Wubing.
Finally, the timeline finally reaches the present.
Lao Li and others launched an operation and hid Fang Wubing in a secret room. They used carefully prepared torture instruments and drugs to force Fang Wubing to reveal the whereabouts of the container.
But they still underestimated Fang Wubing's determination. Fang Wubing would rather die together than tell the secret, and that's what happened next.
So……
The question returns to its original point again. Are Lao Li and others members of the mysterious organization or the owner of the container, Xu Zun?
It seems to Xu Zhen that he is more inclined to the former.
Because, after all, the container had been stored at Wanfeng Bank for thirty years untouched. Not only had Xu Zun disappeared long ago, but he also had no power in the court, so there was no way he could make such an arrangement.
So, what kind of organization is Lao Li and others?
Although the jailers and spies shouted slogans such as "Shang Xuan and defeat the aliens", Xu Zhen felt that they were not against Tianxuan's rebellion, but were using Tianxuan's rebellion to divert attention.
You know, Lao Li and others are using a two-pronged approach. The people above remove all layers of defense, and Lao Li and others take action.
Therefore, Xu Zhen judged that the head of the mysterious organization under Fang Wubing, who was the superior of Lao Li and others, was 80% from the upper echelons of the DPRK.
Only the Qian Party and the British Party are the most powerful in the court today, so the leader of this mysterious organization is either the current Prime Minister Qian Youdao, or the emperor's uncle, the King of England Li Xiao?
Ouch...
Xu Zhen frowned, feeling more and more that the situation was not good.
He had already offended the powerful British King Li Xiao during the Cui Xiaotian incident in Yanping County.
No matter which party you offend this time, it will definitely be detrimental to you.
However, if the investigation does not continue, uncle Qilin will definitely remain the scapegoat. Even if Fang Wubing is found, he still cannot clear his uncle's name.
What's more, even if Xu Zhen doesn't want to continue investigating, it's already too late!
The fact that he was assassinated by a man in black before was enough to show that he could not escape unscathed.
Man in black……
Did they assassinate themselves just because they ruined their plan and uncovered those jailors and spies?
Could there be other reasons?
Tsk tsk...
It felt to Xu Zhen that the case was not only confusing, but also confusing.
The mysterious organization, Da Xuan Ti, the container, Fang Wubing, Lian Ji, Lao Li, Xi Dao...
The factors are intertwined together to form a huge and unsolvable mystery.
Especially the unknown enemy. His power is powerful and his ears are everywhere, but he is still mysterious and unpredictable.
In addition, what role did Lian Ji play in this case? Although Xu Zhen exposed her lies time and time again, there was no guarantee that what she told was the truth.
Dongfang Meiyan came for the five boxes of containers. Her purpose was not to solve the case, but to find the whereabouts of Judge Daxuanti through the containers.
Judge Da Xuanti has been missing for nearly thirty years, why is she still looking for his whereabouts?
What happened to the rusty knife? Besides being the sword of the founding emperor, what other hidden secrets make it so remembered by many forces?
besides……
Xu Zhen listed all the questions on the paper, and then began to seriously recall all the experiences after Daguan City, trying to analyze something from them.
The enemies seem invisible, but they seem to be everywhere, so...can we use this as a breakthrough?
Thinking of this, Xu Zhen began to organize his thoughts, and while organizing his thoughts, he was surprised to find many clues that he had not noticed before.
In this way, it was not until an hour later, when it was already midnight, that Xu Zhen burned all the things he had written and painted into ashes.
Then, he tiptoed into the room where Shen Yu and Qin Yin were resting.
Shen Yu was very alert. As soon as Xu Zhen entered the room, Shen Yu asked in a low voice: "What's wrong, Senior Brother Xu, is there something wrong?"
"Well," Xu Zhen nodded, came to Shen Yu's ear softly, and whispered, "The things I asked Meng Zhixiao to do should have been completed."
"Ah? Meng Zhixiao?" Shen Yu hadn't recovered yet and asked subconsciously, "Yes, he came with us, why didn't we see him? What did he do?"
"Xiaoyu," Xu Zhen said, "Next, you have to take care of these things for me. We can no longer be beaten passively..."
