Chapter 296 296 Clean up
got off the carriage.
Zhang Rongfang frowned and looked at Wanghai Temple.
"Quickly enter the temple and see if there are any thieves! How dare you raid Wanghai Temple under my rule? If the masters make any mistakes, how can I explain to the Zen masters of the Western Sect!?"
He looked dignified and said solemnly.
Shangguan Lianyue led people to follow from behind.
"Master Shoujiao, all the religious affairs of the entire Erythronia belong to you, and it is your responsibility, which has nothing to do with the lower officials.
Before I came to relieve the siege of Chenxiang Palace, now that the affairs have been settled, I should return to Xuehong Pavilion. "
"Master Shangguan is going back so soon?" Zhang Rongfang was surprised.
"Why don't you stay for a while longer, so that this official can also fulfill the friendship of the landlord."
"Thank you for your kindness, sir. It's just that I've been used to the penance life for months. I've been in this place for a long time. I'm afraid that going back will affect my mood. As the saying goes, gentle enjoyment is a bone-eating poison."
Shangguan Lianyue laughed twice, but didn't finish speaking.
Suddenly, there was a sharp siren firework sound from Wanghai Temple.
Red fireworks suddenly exploded.
Several figures rushed out quickly, kneeling on one knee in front of Zhang Rong.
"Master Shoujiao, something is wrong! Wanghai Temple is full of signs of fighting, and corpses are strewn all over the ground! The abbot, Zen Master Kongxiang, is nowhere to be found and seems to be missing!"
"What!?" Zhang Rongfang turned pale with shock, "Take me to see it!"
Shangguan Lianyue on the side also faltered with a smile on his face.
He has also heard about Kong Xiang in Wanghai Temple. Although he doesn't know this person, in the True Buddha Temple, among the monks of Kong's generation, there is not a weak one.
At least it is also a super-inner law spirit.
As for the ability of Kong Xiang to sit in one place, I am afraid that there are many three empty spirits.
Such a master, who is at the same level as him, will suddenly disappear for no reason! ?
The more Shangguan Lianyue thought about it, the more panicked she became.
I feel that the depth of the water in Zaitong Harbor is simply unimaginable.
The last time the encirclement and suppression of the secret religion felt a little wrong.
This time, there are so many monks in Wanghai Temple, and there are also eminent monks of the empty generation leading the way.
He quickly followed Zhang Rongfang, and entered the temple together with Sun Chaoyue, Chen Han and others.
Sure enough, as soon as he entered the gate of the temple, the inner wall was broken and the pillars of the house were broken.
The ground is full of cracked stone slabs and deep footprints.
The corpses of monks fell in a pool of blood in disorder, and they had already lost their breath.
The strange thing is that the most powerful abbot in the temple, Kongxiang, has disappeared.
Seeing this messy murder scene.
Shangguan Lianyue only felt a chill in his heart rushing to the back of his head.
Look at Zhang Yingdaozi who looks shocked at the side.
The other party's shocked expression was very real, but for some reason, he always felt that something was wrong.
"What kind of murderer is this!? He dared to do this to the masters of Xizong! It's just, it's just!" Zhang Rong's face was ugly, his body was trembling, and he yelled loudly as if he was terrified.
"I, Zhang, is a church guard, and now I am facing a serious case. It is my lack of control!" He lamented loudly, his face distressed.
"Li Shang!"
"Here!" A strong Taoist guarding the teaching office behind him stepped forward and knelt down.
"From today, I order you to fully mobilize all forces in the Shoujiao Yamen. You must investigate the murderer behind Wanghai Temple! Find out the clues! Give me a bright and bright future in Citonggang!" Zhang Rongfang sternly said.
"I obey orders!" The Taoist named Li Shang responded loudly, feeling that he was being reused, and became emotional for a while.
"Li Shang, I know that you have always been very knowledgeable and extremely capable of tracing. This time, perhaps the case of the masters will be entrusted to you."
Zhang Rongfang looked at the **** ground and sighed.
"Shang, I will live up to my lord's entrustment!" Li Shang was encouraged by the highest-ranking boss, and his face was flushed, and his eyes were firm.
At this time, the officers and soldiers of the government office and the government governor came late.
Teams of people surrounded Wanghai Temple again.
Governor Zhao Yanting and Governor Nilov hurried over with their personal guards at the same time.
After seeing the **** mess in Wanghai Temple, both of them turned pale and looked at Zhang Rongfang.
"Zhang Shoujiao, what do you think about this matter!?" Zhao Yanting panicked.
Wanghai Temple is a brand new temple built by the eminent monks of Xizong.
It has only been built for a year or two now, and such a major event has happened.
Once it is verified, he, the governor in charge of local public security management, cannot escape the responsibility under the joint responsibility.
"Master Zhao, Lord Nilov, I have ordered people to conduct a strict investigation. We must mobilize all forces, and at all costs, we must bring the murderer to justice, so as to comfort the souls of the masters of Wanghai Temple!"
Zhang Rongfang sighed.
"Well, if there is anything useful in this case, Zhang Shoujiao just speak up." Ninov met with Kong Xiang, and knew that the other party was terrifying.
At this time, even the empty phase mysteriously disappeared, and the whole Wanghai Temple was in a mess, how could he dare to come in and take a dip in the muddy water.
Among the people here, only Zhang Ying Zhang Shoujiao, as a Daoist Taoist, has this background to carry this wave of accountability.
"Thank you, Mr. Fu Yin." Zhang Rongfang thanked Chaonilov with a fist.
"No matter what, please give the results as soon as possible, Master Shoujiao. This matter is of great importance. Xuehong Pavilion and Zhenfo Temple may send people to investigate."
Zhao Yanting reminded.
"I understand!" Zhang Rongfang nodded solemnly.

In the blink of an eye, another month has passed.
The case of Wanghai Temple was quickly closed.
The entire Wanghai Temple was raided and wiped out by experts from the Esoteric Thousand Religion League.
In the Wanghai Temple, the Shoujiao Yamen also found the remains of corpses belonging to the masters of the Qianjiao League, as well as traces of violent fighting.
The body of Kongxiang was also found on a beach a few miles away from Wanghai Temple.
The body was left with only one skin, and the inside was empty.
As for why the Qianjiao League raided Xizong?
I don't know.
No one can know what these esoteric masters will do.
Anyway, as long as they fight against Lingting, they will do it.
When you encounter problems, just pile them on their heads.
After Zhang Rongfang reported the case, the Zhenfo Temple did not respond for the time being.
This shocking case is considered to be over.
Mid-July.
The civil strife in Daling gradually subsided.
After the expeditionary force landed overseas, they conquered more than a dozen small countries. According to the rules, the men were all over the wheel and killed them all.
Afterwards, a large number of women and children's belongings were looted and transported back to various ports in Daling through the logistics fleet.
Among them, Erythronia Port received the most.
Late July.
The ship transporting slaves arrived at Zaitong Harbor again.
The sea breeze is howling at the pier, and the temperature is gradually getting cooler.
Groups of women and children in gray skirts walked down the gangway beside the boat neatly with miserable expressions.
Except for children, these people are all women, and their skin color is obviously different from most of the Great Spirits. More Hussi-like features.
The eyes they raised from time to time revealed numbness, despair, apprehension, and fear.
Some of these women even had slightly protruding stomachs and bruises all over their bodies. Perhaps they were raped halfway on the boat and became pregnant with the flesh and blood of soldiers.
On a private house pavilion near the wharf.
Yonilov of the Yaston Mansion is holding a banquet in his private house to welcome Xue Chengsi, the captain of the returning fleet.
Almost all the senior officials of Erythronia participated in this banquet.
On the light blue sloping roof, in the afternoon, there are bright yellow lights projected, shining on the green and black shiny tiles.
Bursts of music, laughter, and discussions floated from the high-rise windows of the pavilion.
Xue Chengsi is over fifty years old, and he was born as a spiritual nobleman.
But even as a super product, at his current age, he has already begun to decline.
Because of the exhaustion of qi and blood, and the lack of literary skills to keep in good health, his actual martial arts are at most only the level of foreign medicine.
At this moment, it is in the loft banquet hall.
He is wearing a lavender robe, a rhinoceros horn belt, and a black-brimmed wide-brimmed hat with a red background.
The top of the hat is also inlaid with a big red coral bead the size of a fingernail.
What is particularly eye-catching is that he looks like a pregnant belly, and he sways when he walks, with a rather honest and honest temperament.
"In today's world, I originally thought that there would be no place comparable to my Great Spirit. I never thought that this time I went out, but I learned a lot."
"Master Xue, do you feel something in your heart? Have you seen a stronger force?" Governor Nilov picked up the wine and took a sip.
"Well, there are many small countries in Western Italy. Although the land is sparsely populated, they are courageous. This time when I was waiting to destroy the twelfth country, I encountered a group of stubbornly resisting natives.
Our army besieged them for more than three months, and finally resisted until the last person in the city died, and no one surrendered. "Xue Chengsi exclaimed.
"If my great spirit can also have such a heroic army, it will greatly reduce the casualties of the army."
"Maybe it's because they share a common belief? It's not because we have too many sects." Zhang Rongfang, who was dressed in a brocade robe, said with a smile.
As one of the three most senior officials in Zaitong Port, he will naturally also come to the banquet.
"It's true, my great spirit is that there are too many sects and too many sects, and the beliefs cannot be unified, and each is fighting." Xue Chengsi nodded in agreement with this statement.
He looked at Zhang Rongfang, and he had heard of this contemporary Daoist Taoist.
After all, since this person came to Erythronia, there has been quite a lot of commotion.
Although he seems to be passive every time, he is the ultimate beneficiary in the end.
No one is a fool, and everyone can see the meaning.
In Zaitong, about 60% of the merchant fleet now gets 10% of the profit, which is handed over to the guarding yamen for missionary expenses.
The Shoujiao Yamen took advantage of Daling's religious policies to reasonably avoid part of the tax for these fleets.
This is legal in Daling.
Officials, officials, monks, Taoists, doctors, craftsmen, craftsmen, prostitutes, Confucians, beggars.
This is not a random division.
Monks and Taoists really have various tax reductions and exemptions.
As long as some of the ships' goods are anchored in the past, and they can find some names from Zhang Rongfang's guard office, they can get an extra profit of at least 20%.
Dividing 10% to Zhang Shoujiao like this will also make a lot of money.
Wanghai Temple also thought about accepting this way before, but before it had time to intervene, it was gone.
Nowadays, no one in the entire Erythronia can compete with the Shoujiao Yamen in this respect.
Zhang Rongfang will also distribute a large amount of profit resources to Nijiao and Qianshimen.
In this world, when practicing martial arts, a lot of wealth needs to be consumed.
Money is power.
This is not empty talk in Daling.
After receiving a large amount of financial support from Zhang Rongfang, the support of Nijiao for him has once again increased, and coupled with the last attack to kill Kongxiang.
Let its reputation reach its peak for a while.
Now Zhang Rongfang is the veritable No. 1 rebel.
