In Ruixuan Town, Zhang Yi quietly found Zhu Yuan.
The last time Zhang Yi came, Wei Gelin hadn't arrived yet, and there was only Zhu Yuan. It was still the same this time. Zhang Yi frowned and asked:
"Brother Zhu, it's been so many days and Brother Wei Gelin hasn't come yet?"
Zhu Mao immediately replied like pouring out bitter water:
"I was about to talk about this with Brother Zhang. Wei Gelin arrived the next day after Brother Zhang left last time..."
As soon as Zhang Yi heard that Wei Gelin had arrived, he immediately asked:
"What about others?"
"Well, this Wei Gelin is a restless person. He can't stand the restriction of staying at home. After arriving Ansheng for only two days, he felt bored and wanted to go out for a walk. I can neither control him nor persuade him. , I had no choice but to let him, and then...hey...then he became more and more outrageous. He and I were both disciples of the Five Spirits. In the early days, we always had some friends and enemies in the Five Spirits Sect. Wei Gelin was walking on the street. Two days ago, I met someone with whom he had some old grudges in the Five Spirits Sect. This Wei Gelin! He actually followed him quietly into the Five Spirits Sect and killed that person halfway. After I came back, I discovered the clues and only after questioning him did he admit it. , I persuaded him not to cause any more trouble before you came. Although he agreed, he didn’t take my words to heart at all. Later one day, when I saw him coming back, his face was very excited, and I kept talking several times. After questioning, he revealed that he had met the guy he hated the most before in Ruixuan Town. He seemed to be called Fu Qi. I knew as soon as I heard that he wanted to kill someone again. I was worried that if he did this, he would harm Brother Zhang and Brother Zong. If his plan caused any trouble, he tried to persuade him, but he still couldn't persuade him. When the man named Fu Qi returned to the sect, he quietly followed him out. He must have gone to kill Fu Qi, but He has been out for five or six days now and has not come back, and I am also worried about this."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yi's expression suddenly changed and he asked:
"Has Wei Gelin not been back for five or six days?"
"good."
Zhang Yi was suddenly startled, which immediately reminded him of a piece of news he heard in the sect in the past few days. Zhang Yi had been keeping a close eye on Qian Chao and the others in the sect. This was something he had to do. Yes, just a few days ago, he suddenly heard someone say that Qian Chao escaped from the clan outside the clan after being seriously injured, and he was not the only one who escaped when he came back. He also escaped with someone who did not know whether he was dead or alive, or at least unconscious. When I came back, I heard from the person who sent the message that Qian Chao's face was extremely pale at the time, his figure was swaying, and he walked directly towards the nearest Houtu Temple. Zhang Yi was very surprised when he heard the news. He had been sending people to keep an eye on Qian Chao's movements. Unexpectedly, he didn't even know when Qian Chao came out of the Five Spirits Sect. If Qian Chao hadn't been injured outside this time, maybe He didn't know that Qian Chao had gone out, so he was very dissatisfied with the people who worked for him. The most important thing is that Zhang Yi is very alert. He doesn't know what Qian Chao is doing when he goes out. Now he is extremely afraid of Qian Chao. Whatever Qian Chao does will make him feel frightened. It is a taboo to know what your opponent is doing and to know yourself but not the enemy. What's more, Zhang Yi was very confused as to who would beat Qian Chao to serious injuries, and who was the person who was carried back by Qian Chao from outside. who is it?
Now he knows about Wei Gelin from Zhu Yuan. If calculated based on the date, the time when Qian Chao returned to the sect injured and Wei Gelin went out to kill Fu Qi are at least closely connected. Could it be... Qian Chao met outside When we arrived at Wei Gelin, Wei Gelin was fighting with the man named Fu Qi. Qian Chao had always been nosy. Maybe he accidentally saw Wei Gelin trying to kill Fu Qi and stopped him. Only then did Qian Chao return to the sect seriously injured. What worries Zhang Yi the most is whether the person he is carrying back to the Five Spirits Sect is Fu Qi who was rescued by him or Wei Gelin who was captured alive by him?
There is another issue that Zhang Yi pays special attention to. If Qian Chao's injury is really related to Wei Gelin, there must be a fierce fight between Qian Chao and Wei Gelin. Then...does Qian Chao know that Wei Gelin came to the Five Spirits Sect? What on earth are you here for?
Zhang Yi was suspicious, and he immediately thought about why it was so coincidental that Qian Chao caught up with Wei Gelin quietly going out to kill people for revenge when the clan was so big.
Is it possible that Qian Chao quietly left the sect alone just for Wei Gelin?
So where is Wei Gelin now and what is his fate?
Did he die in Qian Chao's hands or was he injured and escaped?
Even if Wei Gelin escaped, did he escape after getting rid of Qian Chao's entanglement, or did Qian Chao deliberately let him go after catching him and interrogating him?
The difference here is very big.
Wei Gelin practiced forbidden arts, and his methods were naturally powerful, but Qian Chao's methods were seen by Zhang Yi in the Cheng Guan En Examination. Compared with Wei Gelin's forbidden arts, Qian Chao's methods were also very difficult in Zhang Yi's eyes. If Someone could cause Qian Chao to be seriously injured. Zhang Yi absolutely believed that that person would not be much better, even Wei Gelin.
What Zhang Yi is most worried about is that Wei Gelin is captured alive by Qian Chao. If that happens, Wei Gelin is quietly brought back to the sect for interrogation. Then his plan will be aborted before it can be implemented. He colludes with the expelled disciples to murder the sect. Disciple, this is unjustifiable, not to mention that Zong Xi is involved. If the sect takes Wei Gelin's confession to confront the Zong family and Zhang family, although he and Zong Xi will not end up like Jing Jie in the end. , but his plan to get rid of the money tide may come to nothing.
The news Zhang Yi heard in the clan was not accurate, and he sent people to inquire again. But now that he learned about Wei Gelin from Zhu Yuan, Zhang Yi was in chaos. He knew that he could no longer stay in Rui. Xuan Town is here, and the top priority is to go back to the sect and investigate this matter carefully.
What a shame, why couldn't this Zhu Mao stop Wei Gelin and let him go out? What a shame!
However, Zhang Yi also knew that they had invited Wei Gelin and Zhu Yan to help through letters. Although they had promised huge profits to them, they had not thought carefully before and did not expect that Wei Gelin was such a troubled person. It is no wonder that Zhu cloak.
Zhang Yi stood up and said:
"Brother Zhu, this matter is quite important. I must return to the sect immediately to verify it."
Of course Zhu Yan didn't know what Zhang Yi was thinking. When he stood up to see them off, he solemnly said to Zhang Yi:
"Brother Zhang, well, I should be talking about other people's rights and wrongs behind their backs, but it is a major matter of my return to the Five Spirits Sect, so I still want to say one more thing about Wei Gelin's return to the Five Spirits Sect and his return to himself. The disciple seems to have little interest. This person's heart is too wild and he can't listen to other people's good words and advice, let alone be restrained. Moreover, he is very doubtful that you can let him return to the Five Spirits Sect. , I’m afraid even if we can find him again, he probably won’t really contribute to the affairs of Brother Zhang and Brother Zong.”
Wei Gelin told Zhu Yuan a lot about his true thoughts, so at this time Zhu Yuan thought that Wei Gelin must have felt that it was not worthwhile to work for Zong Xi and Zhang Yi after killing Fu Qi, so he simply left and would not do it again in the future. There must be hidden worries in cooperating with such a person, so he said this to Zhang Yi.
Zhang Yi nodded and said:
"Okay, I'll make a note of it, and I'll come see Brother Zhu again within a day or two."
…
After returning to the Wuling Sect, Zhang Yi immediately called for people to inquire carefully. The news that came back made Zhang Yi feel more and more uneasy.
At first, he was still holding a contingency thought in his mind, that is, if Qian Chao's injury this time had nothing to do with Wei Gelin, it was just a coincidence in time, and the person he carried back was not Fu Qi, let alone Wei Gelin. Injury, if so, then his plan can continue to advance step by step.
But it was a pity that the first news sent back by the people who were asking for him made his heart sink. Fu Qi, a disciple of Jiuxuan, was recuperating in his residence due to serious injuries. It was said that he was seriously injured and was closed to visitors, so There was no way to get any information directly from Fu Qi.
Then someone sent another message saying that it was almost noon when Qian Chao returned from outside the clan that day. Although he was returning to the clan from a place where there were usually not many people, he was seen by others, and someone recognized Qian Chao at that time. Chao was carrying Fu Qi, who was unconscious. He staggered toward the nearest Hou Tu Temple. Zhang Yi guessed that Qian Chao must have gone to Hou Tu Temple to find Lu Pingchuan. He went there for help because he was so injured that he could no longer support himself.
Then there was news that two days after Qian Chao returned, Fu Qicai returned to his residence from Houtu Temple and stayed behind closed doors to recuperate. He also said that several people who had been friends with Fu Qi when he went out with him None of the Five Spirit disciples came back.
At this point, Zhang Yi understood that Wei Gelin must have had a fierce fight with Qian Chao, otherwise Qian Chao would not have been so seriously injured. Although there were still messages sent to him one after another, they were all insignificant. It didn't matter anymore. What Zhang Yi was most worried about was what happened to Wei Gelin, whether he escaped or died in the hands of Qian Chao, whether he said anything to Qian Chao before he died or before he escaped. The most important thing is why Qian Chao was so accurate in bumping into Wei Gelin outside the clan. This was what puzzled him the most. He didn't believe it was a coincidence. In view of Qian Chao's cunning, Zhang Yi believed that someone might have leaked it. The news made Qian Chao focus on Wei Gelin.
At the same time, a strange thought came to Zhang Yi's mind. Qian Chao was seriously injured and returned to the sect alone. It stands to reason that Qian Chao and others all advanced and retreated together. There were always five people coming in and out together. How could it be so normal? Did Qian Chao go out alone this time?
If it is said that Qian Chao went out specifically to deal with Wei Gelin, Zhang Yi doesn't quite believe it. Qian Chao was injured like this. If it is said that he went out to deal with Wei Gelin, then why didn't the five of them go out together but Qian Chao went alone?
There must be something weird about Qian Chao going out alone.
So what exactly is the money flowing out for?
No matter what, since things have changed, we can no longer act according to the previous strategy. If we need to make corresponding changes, we must act as if Qian Chao has seen through their plans.
Then, Zhang Yi set off again to Ruixuan Town to find Zhu Cloak.
Of course, it was not that no one was watching Zhang Yi while he was doing all this.
When Qian Chao returned to the Wuling Sect, he knew that he couldn't hide his injuries and the unconscious Fu Qi on his back, so he simply didn't hide it. Zhang Yi would definitely know about it. After thinking about it, no matter what happened in the future, he would always be able to find a way out, and he believed that with Tang Ping's intelligence, Tang Ping would definitely find someone to pay attention to Zhang Yi's movements during the days when he was in a coma.
After Zhang Yi arrived in Ruixuan Town again, he had a secret talk with Zhu Yan for a long time, and then Zhang Yi returned to the sect the next day, while Zhu Yan quietly left Ruixuan Town the night before.
However, what Zhu Yuan did not expect was that when he quietly left Ruixuan Town, someone followed him more carefully, following from a distance. Zhu Yuan did not notice it, but hurried along as Zhang Yi said. go.
