When Hong Yuanqiu heard that Zhang Yu reported his identity as "Xuanting Patroller", he couldn't help but feel shocked.
Although the summons from the civil servant surnamed Wang had been delivered, Miao Guangwu did not dare to take the initiative to reveal his identity without Zhang Yu's explicit explanation. Therefore, Hong Yuanqiu always believed that Zhang Yu was just a Xuanting practitioner.
.
It's worth paying attention to, but no need to pay too much attention.
However, the other party now told him that his true identity was the Xuanting Patroller, an envoy of Xuanting who held the power of judgment.
You must know that Xuan Ting travels to monitor all parties, but as long as the patrol has evidence, he has the power to arrest anyone below him among the stars in Kuisu.
At this moment, he also understood why Xuanting solemnly sent an envoy many days ago.
I am afraid that this is not only related to the matter of Frost Star, but also because of the Xuanting patrol officer standing behind this matter.
At this time, he looked at Zhang Yu very carefully and said solemnly: "It turns out that the Xuanting patrol has arrived. I'm rude." He stepped aside and invited him, "Invite the patrol."
Zhang Yu followed him into the inner hall. He glanced around and saw that the layout of Tanquanzhou was gorgeous and colorful, and some places were luxurious. However, this place, which can be said to have the greatest power in the entire Kuisu, only used some of the simplest
The decoration makes it look extraordinarily simple.
Hong Yuanqiu poured him a cup of tea himself and said in a very natural tone: "It's just some ordinary tea. I hope the patrolman is used to drinking it."
Zhang Yu said calmly: "No problem, the true charm can only be seen in the ordinary."
Hong Yuanqiu smiled, sat on the seat across from him, and said, "The patrol is here, but do you want me to ask you something?"
Zhang Yu had always acted as a pedestrian before. He guessed that it was to facilitate investigation, but now he suddenly came to the Military Affairs Office to report his identity. Something unusual must have happened here.
If it's just a matter on Frost Star, I'm afraid it won't be like this.
Zhang Yudao: "I just returned from Frost Star yesterday. I think Director Hong has already received the news from there?"
Hong Yuanqiu nodded and said: "I received it." His voice turned solemn, "The large formation covers the northern end of Frost Star. With such a large formation, Miao Guangwu, as the garrison commander, did not notice the slightest clue. He couldn't deny it.
It’s his fault.”
Although Miao Guangwu was very cooperative during Frost Star, Zhang Yu did not try to identify anything for him. This was because this garrison Sima was indeed very problematic. The formation had been in existence for three years, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was derelict in his duties.
Judging from Miao Guangwu's account, he trusted his subordinates too much, which led to his oversight. But if he had checked it himself, he would not have been deceived so easily.
Zhang Yudao: "Director Hong, regarding the matter of Shuangxing, in addition to the problems within the garrison, there must also be an internal response from Shang Chentian in the Military Affairs Administration."
Hong Yuanqiu said solemnly: "After reading the report, I think so too, and we are currently conducting a thorough investigation." He looked at Zhang Yu, "Did the patrol see something else?"
Zhang Yudao: "After I discovered the great formation, I found Miao Sima and asked him to send people to report here. To ensure that anything goes wrong, I also reported to Xuanting at the same time.
But after the incident, until the manpower sent by Director Hong arrived, the deputy sent by Miao Sima was still missing, so it is very likely that something happened halfway."
Hong Yuanqiu nodded and said: "Regarding this matter, I also ordered people to investigate after receiving the report. In those few days, there was indeed an invisible spaceship coming to Kuisu Planet. However, because there was no report in advance, on that day
It was destroyed by a patrol airship as an enemy ship."
Zhang Yu asked: "Who is driving this flying boat?"
Hong Yuanqiu said: "This is just an ordinary sergeant. He has no quarrel with anyone, and he reported the matter immediately after the incident. According to military regulations, although he acted a little radically, he did not commit any crime.
He made a mistake and fulfilled the duties of a patrol sergeant, and the Military Affairs Administration could not hold him accountable for this.
He looked at Zhang Yu and continued: "Because of the special circumstances, Deputy Deng was not wrong, so I have asked the Military Affairs Administration to posthumously recognize him as a sergeant who died in the war."
Zhang Yu's eyes flashed slightly, and it was not difficult for him to see that the person behind the scenes had made all arrangements before acting and did not leave any loopholes.
Of course, this does not mean that it will be fine if Deputy Deng takes the initiative to reveal his identity that day. If he wants to intercept you, there are many ways.
He knew that no matter how much he inquired about this matter, there would be no results at the moment, so he put it aside for the time being and said instead: "This time on Frost Star, I killed a suspected Shangchentian monk.
The Taoist soldiers sent to clean up the mess later learned the identity of this person through verification, and this person turned out to be Ding Xuanping, the former Xuanting patrol officer."
When Hong Yuanqiu heard this, he couldn't help but feel moved.
He regretfully said: "I have heard of this Inspector Ding, and I have read his records. He disappeared near a remote place, and his whereabouts have been unknown ever since. Now I hear from Inspector Ding
"Yan, it turns out that he was sacrificed as a Taoist by the Shangchentian monks, which is really a pity."
Looking at Hong Yuanqiu's appearance, Zhang Yu obviously did not realize the key, but this was not surprising, because Hong Yuanqiu was not a Taoist and did not know Ding Xuanping's true strength.
He said: "But it may not be the monk Shangchentian who takes action against Ding Xunhu."
When Hong Yuanqiu heard this, his expression became serious and he said, "Zhang Xunhu suspects that someone from the Kuisu Stars did it?"
Zhang Yu slowly said: "Tao soldiers must be sacrificed while the monks are alive, but Inspector Ding was the last Xuanting patrol officer. I have fought with him and know that his magical methods are all very good. It can be said that there is only one difference.
You can achieve spirituality in one step."
He looked at Hong Yuanqiu, "If you want to kill Ding Xunhu, you can, but if you want to capture him alive, then only Xuan Zun or the Evil God True Spirit can do it personally.
But I checked and found that Ding Xunhu disappeared near Suixing. Although it was remote, it was only four or five days away from the main star. If such a powerful enemy came here, it would be impossible for that person to be unaware of it.
."
Hong Yuanqiu's expression suddenly changed. He obviously understood what Zhang Yu meant, but the problem was that no matter whether this conclusion was true or not, there was a guess hidden behind it that people didn't even dare to think about.
After a long while, he took a breath and said slowly: "Did the patrol overestimate this person's strength?"
Zhang Yu said with absolute certainty: "Absolutely not."
Hong Yuanqiu questioned: "But wasn't he still defeated by Zhang Xunhu?"
Zhang Yu said calmly: "I can kill him, but it is impossible for me to capture him alive."
Hong Yuanqiu couldn't help frowning and didn't speak for a long time, obviously doubting this.
Zhang Yu understood that Hong Yuanqiu just didn't want to believe the assumption that might be the worst at present.
He did not continue on this topic, but said: "No matter who took action at the time, the person who controlled Ding Patrol should have been on Kui's host planet at the time."
Hong Yuanqiu looked at him and said, "Why do you say that?"
Zhang Yudao: "Judging from the time when Ding Xunhu appeared, it was four days after the great formation was exposed. During this period, the only way to reach Shuangxing in time was to start from Kuisu, and the Wei army and I were captured
From being dispatched, to being attacked on the way, to me killing two Shangchentian monks, to finally Inspector Ding arriving during the snowstorm, the whole thing can be connected together."
Hong Yuanqiu thought for a while. Although he didn't want the worst result to happen, he had to investigate the matter and said: "Zhang Xunhu, you came here today because you have a plan in mind."
Yes, how do you want the Military Affairs Administration to cooperate?"
Zhang Yudao: "Ding Xunhu's body is now kept on Frost Star. I have asked Miao Sima to take care of it. Later I plan to transport his body back and return it to his sect. Although he is now a Taoist soldier,
But if you find someone who is good at detecting supernatural powers, you might be able to find something useful from his corpse."
Although Hong Yuanqiu was the director of the department, he had been promoted step by step from below. He immediately understood what Zhang Yu meant and said, "Do you want to test this by the patrol?"
Zhang Yu said calmly: "This is the best verification method. Even if it doesn't succeed, it doesn't matter."
Hong Yuanqiu thought about it and realized that this method was indeed feasible.
Regardless of whether anything can be found from Ding Xuanping's body, since he is the person behind it, it is safest to destroy it. If he knew the news, he would most likely choose to kill him before returning home.
If they win, then as long as they prepare in advance, they may know who the person behind it is.
And as Zhang Yu said, even if it doesn't succeed, nothing is lost.
He said solemnly: "I will make arrangements accordingly. I hope Inspector Zhang will also make some preparations."
Zhang Yu nodded and said: "I will report this matter to Xuanting in advance."
Hong Yuanqiu felt slightly relieved and said: "That's good."
Zhang Yu said: "I would also like to ask, which one of the disciples' records is there in the Military Affairs Office?"
Hong Yuanqiu pondered for a moment, stood up, and walked into the inner room. After a while, he came out and handed over a volume of documents and said: "The dossier of all the disciples under that sect."
It’s all here.”
Zhang Yu took it over, thanked him, and put it into his star bag.
At this time, Hong Yuanqiu handed over another message talisman and said: "The patrols often draw too much attention here. If everything is ready, you can pass it on to me."
Zhang Yu took the message talisman and put it away as well. He said at this time: "I have something to ask Director Hong. Who arranged for the Wei family and the Fu family to go to Shuangxing that day?"
Hong Yuanqiu said: "I have sent people to investigate before. The official who strongly suggested this matter at that time was named Li Ming, and he was also an old official. But before the soldiers arrived, this man had already taken poison at home.
He committed suicide and is still under investigation."
Zhang Yu nodded. This was not unexpected. The other party would definitely plug the loopholes here. He stood up and saluted: "Director Hong, as soon as my place is ready, I will send a summons. Today
I'll take my leave first." After saying this, he glanced somewhere, then turned around and walked out.
Hong Yuanqiu stood up to see him off. After Zhang Yu left, an old Taoist priest appeared in the corner of the hall. He said with emotion: "This patrolman has such a powerful sense of induction. I am afraid he already knows that I am here."
."
Hong Yuanqiu frowned and said, "Guan Daoxiu, is Ding Xunhu's strength really what Zhang Xunhu said?"
Guan Daoxiu was silent for a moment and said: "I can't be as sure as Zhang Xunhu, but if I fight against Daoist Ding back then, I don't think I have half a chance of winning."
