Different space, headquarters of the Secret Shadow Division.
Ning Yi put on a mask, entered a different space, and walked towards the material department that manages logistics.
The Secret Shadow Division is different from other organizations in the Tang Dynasty. There is no strict bureaucratic hierarchy here. Under the Fu Division, headed by the "honorable" Secret Shadow Guard, each leads a team. They may accept tasks alone, or several teams may cooperate and execute them together.
a task.
Regarding tasks, most of the time the Shadow Guard has the power to choose.
In other words, the Shadow Guard has the right to refuse a task.
In order to allow the Secret Shadow Division to carry out some dangerous tasks, the Secret Shadow Division did not directly send people, but chose to use incentives.
For example, dangerous missions will give higher merit rewards.
Overall, the system of the Secret Shadow Division is extremely user-friendly.
The reason is also very simple. Every secret shadow guard is a talented person. Enforcing rules can easily cause rebellious psychology, but rewards will not.
of course there are exceptions.
For example, the highest official of the Secret Shadow Division, Mr. Fusi, has the power to dispatch Secret Shadow Guards and cannot refuse. However, similar things rarely happen. Once they happen, it often indicates that the Tang Dynasty is at a critical juncture. In addition,
, each secret shadow guard has certain mission indicators.
Ning Yi is not the "honored" secret shadow guard. He only needs to complete one task every three years to pass.
In general, the assessment is extremely easy, which is equivalent to nothing.
Today, the director of the Materials Department suddenly sent a message through the token, asking Ning Yi to come to the Materials Department, saying that there was something important, which really made Ning Yi a little confused.
The responsibilities of the Materials Department are very simple. They are responsible for calculating the completion of tasks, issuing merit awards, sorting out members' information, verifying identity backgrounds, and sometimes responsible for eradicating spies. Such a department suddenly came to him, which really made Ning Yi a little bit agitated.
Can't figure it out.
Soon, Ning Yi came to the Ministry of Finance.
After reporting his identity, a masked staff member led Ning Yi into a room.
The room was clean and spacious. An old man was sitting behind the table. To Ning Yi's surprise, the old man was not wearing a mask. In the entire Secret Shadow Division, this was the first person Ning Yi saw without a mask.
.When they first met, Ning Yi was really surprised.
"sit."
The old man smiled and nodded at Ning Yi. There was a hint of femininity in his voice, without any masculinity, "I am the head of the Property Department, Liu Jin."
"Hang yourself!"
Ning Yi sat down at the table and looked at Liu Jin. A flash of light flashed in his eyes. The old man in front of him did not have an Adam's apple. Thinking of his voice just now, Ning Yi's heart moved and he knew that the person in front of him was actually a clean man.
A eunuch with a beautiful body. And judging from the fact that he has no Adam's apple, he is still a eunuch who has been in the palace since he was a child.
The eunuch is in the Secret Shadow Department and is also in charge of the Ministry of Materials.
Liu Jin's identity is about to be revealed.
I am afraid that this is a pair of eyes sent to the Secret Shadow Division by the current Holy Emperor. Its function is to understand every move of the Secret Shadow Division. After all, the Secret Shadow Division is located in Chang'an City and is an extremely powerful force. The royal family does not send anyone
Watch one or two, then there is a ghost.
After knowing Liu Jin's identity, Ning Yi immediately cheered up and said with a smile: "Master Liu, I've called you down. What's important?"
"Haha, it's nothing serious, just a small talk."
Liu Jin smiled and poured a cup of good tea, pushed it in front of Ning Yi, and said: "You also know that when the Secret Shadow Guards join the staff, the Ministry of Materials will do some research on the background of the new members, and I will be responsible for this matter. Of course,
There is nothing wrong with your background, you can rest assured. It’s just that not long after you joined, the ghost face who brought you was caught, and his whereabouts are now unknown. It must have had a great impact on you. I’m calling you here because of this.
Let me ask you if you want to change to a different team."
"Change teams?"
Ning Yi's eyes flickered and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Newly joined Secret Shadow Guards are often relatively weak in strength and find it difficult to receive big tasks. If they are led by a strong captain, things will be different. This model will help the growth of the Secret Shadow Guards. Team members
The structure is not static.
For example, Ghost Face Ning Yi was originally a team.
If Ghost Face dies, Ning Yi can choose another team. This kind of thing is often arranged by Monobu. After all, Monobu is in charge of everyone's information. No one has more say than Monobu about who is more suitable.
Okay. Therefore, it is reasonable for Liu Jin to seek after himself because of this matter.
"Thank you, Mr. Liu, for your kindness."
Ning Yi smiled and shook his head, and said: "The ghost-faced boss is trapped in the enemy camp because of my intelligence, and I don't know whether he is alive or dead. Therefore, I don't want to change the team until I have no definite information about him."
"Haha, repaying a favor with kindness is not bad."
Liu Jin nodded with a smile and said: "Although the Ministry of Materials has reallocated the power of the Secret Shadow Guards, I still respect personal choices. Since you don't want to, then let's do this for now. If you figure it out, you can always
Come to me. After all, in the long run, it will be beneficial to you to follow a secret shadow guard with the title."
"I got it."
Ning Yi nodded. It would be better to have less contact with the emperor's eyeliner. Ning Yi smiled and said: "I still have some things to be busy with. If there is nothing else, I will resign."
"Don't rush."
Liu Jin waved his hands with a smile, pondered for a moment, and said: "You must have noticed that I was born in the palace. Before coming to the Secret Shadow Division, I had a good friend. His Majesty valued me and put me in the Secret Shadow Guard to control me.
Monobe. My good friend usually works outside the palace and controls a killer organization."
That's it, Liu Jin held the tea cup with a smile and took a sip.
Ning Yi's pupils shrank, and a turmoil arose in his heart.
Sure enough, there is no such thing as kindness without reason.
Ghost Face has been missing for more than a year, and Liu Jin has not been seen talking to him about re-selecting the team. But at this time, he suddenly called him to talk about the matter. Ning Yi has always been confused in his heart. At this time, everything has the answer
, what I just said was not nonsense, but a condition.
In addition, there are many secrets in Liu Jin's words.
However, Ning Yi was still a little unbelievable. After being silent for a while, he tentatively asked, "What do you mean by Master Liu's words?"
"Haha, it's not interesting."
Liu Jin shook his head with a smile and said: "As I get older, sometimes I like to recall things from the past. Just think of it as a story. It seems that my little old friend has been a little confused recently and lost the treasure that His Majesty kicked off.
It's lost. No, please ask me to help you find it. We've been friends together all our lives, and it's hard to refuse."
The corners of Ning Yi's eyes twitched slightly, and now he was completely sure.
Liu Jin's words were very clear, he just said it directly and asked Ning Yi to return the Bone Soul Tower.
Tianluozhong is actually an organization founded by the current Saint.
Now, the top leaders of this organization have been taken over by him, and the cause and effect has become bigger. Ning Yi's mind was swaying, and his head was turning rapidly, thinking about the impact of this incident.
"wrong."
Soon, Ning Yi denied the speculation just now. He took down the top management of Tianluo Zhong, but Zhenxian Division also participated in the operation and completely wiped out Tianluo Zhong.
If I don’t know the truth, does Zhenxian Division also know it?
The person who commanded the annihilation of the Tianluo people was Yang Gao. This was a member of the royal family who had royal blood and was a decent member of the royal family.
Therefore, Yang Gao must know.
Now that he knows it, there is only one reason why he dares to attack the Tianluo people. The current Holy Emperor wants the Tianluo people to disappear. Think about it, a majestic emperor should act openly and aboveboard. How can such a person establish a killer organization? Even if there is,
It is also a stain that needs to be completely erased.
Therefore, Tianluozhong is actually a chess piece.
Ning Yi doesn't know the circumstances under which the Holy Emperor established the Tianluo Clan. But he can imagine that the struggle for the throne has always been dirty and bloody. Now that the throne is stable, the stain of the Tianluo Clan is no longer needed.
Already.
Thinking about it this way, not only was he not guilty, but he had merit.
The eunuch who controls the Tianluo people has lost the emperor's heart and may not live long. In this case, why should he be afraid?
After thinking about all this, Ning Yi calmed down and said with a smile: "Then Mr. Li should look for it carefully. After all, it was given by the Holy One. How could he lose it? This is not a crime of disrespect. If the Holy One asks,
Get up, but you will be beheaded."
Liu Jin's hand holding the tea cup trembled slightly, and the faint green smoke disappeared instantly.
A layer of ice formed on the hot tea soup in the blink of an eye. The next moment, the ice disappeared and the tea soup returned to its original state, as if everything was just an illusion.
"Well said."
Liu Jin nodded with a smile, stared at Ning Yi with a pair of eyes, and said in a deep voice: "If you are free, you might as well help me pay attention to something. If you can find it, I will be very grateful. The treasure given by the Holy Spirit is not someone else's.
I can hold it all, but I’m afraid that if I find it slowly, I’ll harm others.”
"This is the entrustment of the master, so I should pay attention to it."
Ning Yi smiled and nodded, saying: "It's difficult to find a treasure that touches people's hearts."
"Well, let's do our best."
Liu Jin nodded with a smile and said: "The war in Yunzhou has been tense recently. Many secret shadow guards have gone to Yunzhou, where there are many opportunities and they can earn more merits. If you really don't think about it, change the team and have someone with you.
It’s the easiest to earn merit.”
This remark is a rehash of an old matter, but it has a different meaning.
Liu Jin is threatening!
If Ning Yi does not return the Bone Soul Tower, he may use his power to find a team for Ning Yi.
Each named Secret Shadow Guard has absolute control over his own team. In other words, if Ning Yi joins another team and controls the team's named Secret Shadow Guard, he can command him and send him to do some dangerous things.
task.
Ning Yi narrowed his eyes slightly and his face turned cold.
"Yeah?"
Ning Yi stood up and said with a smile: "I'm a little tempted by what Chief Liu said. I wonder if the Seven Secret Shadow Elders have left seclusion. If I call them together, I might be able to earn a lot of merit."
"That's a good thing to note."
The smile on Liu Jin's face turned a little ugly, as if she was trying her best to hold back her anger.
"Farewell!"
Ning Yi took a deep look at Liu Jin, turned around and left.
This time, Liu Jin did not try to persuade him to stay.
The temptation and negotiation have collapsed, and Ning Yi has no intention of giving in. There are some things that he cannot say openly since he is the head of the Ministry of Things.
"What a difficult kid."
After a long while, Liu Jin cursed in a low voice, turned over his hand and took out a bronze mirror, and brushed his hand on the mirror. An old face was reflected in the mirror. It was none other than the real leader of the Tianluo Society, the old eunuch Zhu Rang.
"how?"
In the mirror, Zhu Rang's eyes showed a look of anxious expectation.
"It made Brother Zhu laugh."
Liu Jin gave a bitter smile and said: "That boy is extremely difficult to deal with, and he has a favor for his life to the Seventh Secret Shadow Elder. To make Brother Zhu laugh, even I can't do anything with him. So, Brother Zhu wants to take it.
Let’s find another way to get the treasure back.”
Zhu Rang's face became a little ugly, he was silent for a moment, and said: "Thank you, Brother Liu. Since this guy doesn't know how to praise, don't blame me for being cruel."
"This method is acceptable, but the degree must be controlled."
Liu Jin frowned slightly and reminded: "He is a secret shadow guard. Brother Zhu needs to remember this identity at all times. Once something happens to him, the Secret Shadow Division will definitely investigate to the end. Once that time comes, the matter can be resolved
It’s easy to handle.”
"Brother Liu, don't worry, I won't do anything stupid."
Zhu Rang smiled and nodded, and the figure disappeared from the mirror.
…………
After coming out of Chief Liu's place, Ning Yi thought for a while and walked towards the practice room. He was still relatively junior and didn't know many secrets. Since he had offended the leader of the Tianluo people, it would be very important to find out the identity of this person.
Extremely important.
Once you know who it is, it's best to make some preparations.
If this person is ignorant, just kill him.
As long as you are not in the Hedao realm, with the power of the Six Ding Divine Fire Formation, there is not much problem in killing with one strike. As for the impact after killing, it will not be great. After all, this person is a stain on the Holy Spirit if he is alive.
, after death, the Holy Spirit will not investigate further.
Soon, Ning Yi came to a practice room and tried to call the people inside, but no one answered. He changed to several other practice rooms, but the same situation remained.
"Maybe he died inside."
Ning Yi complained in a low voice, the Seven Secret Shadow Elders have been in seclusion for almost a year, and there is no sign of leaving the isolation. Except for the Seven Secret Shadow Elders, Ning Yi is not familiar with the other Secret Shadow Guards. He wants to find out these secret information.
I'm afraid something is inappropriate.
Shaking his head, he could only give up temporarily.
I have made it clear that I refuse to return the Bone Soul Tower. I think the leader of the Tianluo people will not be able to bear it for long and will jump out automatically. It will not be too late to resolve the matter by then. Now, it is better to earn merit points in exchange for skills.
The most important thing.
As long as the balance rules planted in the inner world reach a certain scale, any kind of law can be planted. At that time, the strength will definitely grow explosively.
Ten thousand years is just the starting point, and one hundred thousand years is not too difficult.
After coming out of the Secret Shadow Department, Ning Yi sensed that fifteen clones had searched hundreds of brothels, but none of them matched the scene in the divination. Ning Yi frowned slightly, the divination was about the scene within three days.
, the sooner you can find it, the better. Otherwise, once someone mistakenly predicts the hexagram, it will be difficult to grasp this clue.
Jinshi Pavilion, the Puppet Sect's trading house in Chang'an City.
Ning Yi walked into the backyard in a familiar way, and countless vines swept over him, covering Ning Yi. At first, this scene could make Ning Yi a little embarrassed, but this was a bit unsightly. Ning Yi's body flashed with green light, and countless vines swept over him.
The vines passed through his body, and Ning Yi was like a phantom, without any damage.
"Hey, what kind of magical power is this?"
As soon as the figure flashed, an old man with messy hair came to Ning Yi, looked up and down, and said in surprise: "Oh, what kind of magic elixir did your kid take? How long did it take to form an elixir?"
"Who formed the elixir?"
Mo Lei's voice came from the inner courtyard. When he came out and saw Ning Yi, his eyes showed joy and he shouted: "Brother Ning, long time no see."
