Chapter 298
In the quiet and deserted Wanghai Temple.
A burly figure like an iron tower was quietly standing beside the last position where Kongxiang was killed before.
He seems to be observing, but also seems to be thinking.
"How is it? Do you see anything? Empty."
came along with the voice.
Deep in the inner courtyard of the temple, a figure flashed silently again.
The man was thin and thin, but was wearing a large cassock. His face could not be seen clearly in the dark, but his clear eyes reflecting the moonlight were like two black crystals, which were extremely eye-catching.
"This method is a bit like the master of the extreme realm." The iron tower figure answered Kongding.
"Grandmaster Jijing, these guys in Jijing are really annoying. There are traces of them everywhere." The thin figure said helplessly.
"But." Kong Ding continued, with some hesitation.
"how?"
"However, even the Grandmaster of the Extreme Realm, his hands will not be so precise, and he will be killed in one shot.
If it is the masters who are proficient in the secrets of various sects, forget it.
But the traces here are more like the spirits of the two sects fighting with all their might. In the end, he killed Kongxiang with mortal means.
So, this is weird. " Kong Ding sighed.
"What about Kongwu? He has been promoted to Grandmaster now, and he is no longer the Sea Dragon King, so let him handle this matter." The skinny figure ordered.
"Master, Kong Wu has difficulty moving, and it's too conspicuous." Kong Ding reminded.
"Then you should stay and cooperate with him. There are also people from the Shinichi Sect. There are also people from the rats at the sensor door.
Erythrina is now more and more mixed with dragons and snakes, and it needs enough strength to sit firmly here.
In addition, you said earlier that it was found that the goods detained here were transported to the island? "
"Yes, who sent it and where it was sent are still being searched.
However, judging from the traces here, it doesn't look like the martial arts traces of the Qianjiao League, but more like the remnants of the Eastern Sect, those who rebelled against the religion.
But with the little manpower of the Rebellious Sect, it is impossible for them to be their opponents. So either there is another master behind them. Or, it was because of the Qianjiao League's suspicion. " Kong Ding replied.
"You and Kongwu deal with it. If something happens, you can ask people from the Taiqing lineage to cooperate."
"Understood." Kong Ding nodded.
"I will leave this place to you guys. I can only stay here for a week at most. The situation in Xiyi has become more and more chaotic. I must go as soon as possible." The skinny figure said lightly.
"Disciple understands." Kong Ding lowered his head and said in a deep voice. "Within a week, the disciple and Kongwu will first destroy the main force of the Rebellion here and search for clues. However, there are Taijingzi here, and Zuo Han is here, so the disciple is worried."
"Don't worry, I'm here, they will stay away." The skinny figure said softly.
"Yes."

Two days later, early in the morning.
Agarwood Palace.
After breakfast, Zhang Rongfang ate an orange while looking at a secret letter in his hand with a slight frown.
The letter was sent from Qianshimen.
Nowadays, Qianshimen has many masters under his command, so Zuo Han's connection with him is getting closer.
"Mahuraka? What level is this?"
He doesn't know much about Xizong, he only knows that Zhenfo Temple is the highest military institution of Xizong.
Among them, the seats are arranged according to the character generation.
The previous Kongxiang is a member of the Kongzi generation.
The secret letter was written by Zuo Han, the master of Qianshimen, and mentioned that because the master of Xizong Yuan's generation came to Citong secretly, he asked him to keep his own place in recent days, and there must be no changes.
Otherwise, the consequences will be unpredictable.
Zuo Han's tone in the letter was extremely solemn, and he mentioned that because this Mahulaka had a bad temper and didn't like people with the induction door, they had to stay away for a while. Will come back later.
‘It’s a big show, just because you don’t like it, you have to force others to take the initiative to retreat, and you are not allowed to stay in the same city.’
This kind of power made Zhang Rongfang involuntarily think of a level-the great master.
"Thinking about it, the only one who can make the master retreat so much is the level of the great master. At this time, this Mahuraka will definitely not come here in person just because of the death of an empty figure.
There should be some official mission to come here, and then take a look at Kongxiang's case by the way. "
Zhang Rongfang rubbed his chin and felt some newly grown stubble.
"I was wearing a full body armor and a human skin mask inside, so no one should recognize me.
Since this is the case, bear with it for a while, and when the life exceeds 200, there should be new talents appearing.”
He looked forward to it.
In addition, the main medicine of Jin Changong said that a clue was found, but it has been so long, and the masters sent to find the medicine have not returned yet.
It is estimated that either it was not found, or something happened again.
At this level, the main medicines needed for the daily stage of the Golden Toad Kung Fu are all absolute treasures, extremely rare.
It is normal for accidents to happen.
I just have to follow up and investigate one or two more.
Carefully ignited, burned, and crushed the secret letter.
Suddenly the sound of basic footsteps came from outside the courtyard.
"Daozi! Daozi! Then Mr. Xue Ji Xue is here again!"
The old Taoist in Chenxiang Palace hurriedly ran into the courtyard, bowed to Zhang Rongfang with his fists cupped in salute, but he quickly reported the report in an anxious tone.
"What did Mr. Xue do this time?" Zhang Rong looked calm.
Xue Ji, relying on his mother being the eleventh princess of the current dynasty, is so arrogant that he has come to Chenxiang Palace for two consecutive days to find fault.
He seemed to believe that the death of Princess Yongxiang was related to himself.
After a while, he "accidentally" shot and smashed the head office of Shoujiao.
After a while, he "accidentally" collided with a cart of alchemy medicinal materials purchased in Chenxiang Palace, crushing a cart of high-quality medicinal materials.
Yesterday, he connived at the guards and wounded more than a dozen Taoist priests welcoming guests from Chenxiang Palace, saying that these Taoist priests treated him rudely and despised him.
Today, this guy doesn't know what he plans to do.
Zhang Rongfang was not moved.
Before, he planned to teach Xue Ji a lesson in secret, but since Xizong has a big shot here, he can't act rashly anymore.
"Daozi, you should go and have a look, that Mr. Xue now insists that Miss Sun Chaoyue broke his lion's nine-turn glass cup and wants her to pay five thousand taels!" The old Taoist said helplessly.
"Let's go and have a look." Zhang Rong stood up without moving his face. He patted his Taoist robe and walked towards the gate of the courtyard.
Although it is not appropriate to go to war, he is still a master of super-grade foreign medicine. Not everyone can be easily bullied.
Following the old way to lead the way, the two quickly walked through the aisle and corridor, and came to the open space between a shrine and the reception area of Chenxiang Palace.
Sure enough, Xue Ji looked cold, and surrounded the open space with a group of Daling soldiers.
Beside him stood a strong and tall woman with her arms folded, staring expressionlessly at the surrounded Sun Chaoyue.
"If you broke this cup today, if you don't pay for it, or if you can't afford it, that's fine. According to the law of the Great Spirit, if you pay the debt with someone else, you will be mine from now on." Xue Ji's voice was steady.
"I heard that you are Zhang Ying's confidant, but I just don't know how he would react without you."
"Young Master Xue, why are you free to visit my palace today?" The words did not finish.
Zhang Rongfang's voice came from the aisle on the side of the temple.
A group of Taoist priests surrounded him and walked towards this side.
It’s just that although there are many Taoist priests, they are not enough compared to the elite soldiers in armor brought by Xue Ji.
His momentum was more than a little weaker.
"Your people broke my precious cup, Daozi Zhang Ying can figure it out." Xue Ji pointed to a broken ordinary wine glass on the ground, and turned to look at Zhang Rongfang with a half-smile.
"Daozi, I don't! I." Sun Chaoyue hurriedly wanted to argue, but saw Zhang Rongfang raised his hand, motioning her to stop and keep silent.
Zhang Rongfang glanced at the fragments of cups on the ground. They were ordinary porcelain cups on the market that did not exceed one or two cups.
"Come here, take five thousand taels of silver! Since you broke Mr. Xue's precious cup, you should apologize."
The Taoists around were stunned for a moment, and then there was a slight uproar.
Obviously, there is no cup on the market worth five thousand taels!
That's five thousand taels!
In this era when a farm cattle is only forty or fifty taels, five thousand taels can buy hundreds of the best farm cattle!
As soon as Zhang Rongfang said this, even Xue Ji was stunned.
He frowned and stared at Zhang Rongfang, as if he wanted to find out what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.
But Zhang Rong looked calm and smiling, without any resentment at all.
There was a sincere apology in his eyes.
Soon, a Taoist took the bank note and sent it to Xue Ji in five thousand taels.
"Mr. Xue is still satisfied? The lack of control of the poor has frightened you." Zhang Rongfang said softly.
Xue Ji squinted his eyes and looked at the bank notes on the plate in front of him.
Five thousand taels, even for him, is not a small amount. And the other party actually said it and gave it.
He picked up the bank note and carefully identified that it was indeed a large-value bank note issued by Daling Official Bank.
It can be exchanged in various banks in Daling.
"Daozi is very generous. But I said it before, three days." He gestured three fingers.
"Today happens to be the third day. I don't know what to tell me?"
"Mr. Xue, why is this so?" Zhang Rongfang sighed, showing a look of helplessness, "Actually, when the princess disappeared, Pindao also searched for clues everywhere. But"
"But what?" Xue Ji asked coldly. "Could it be that you have something to hide?"
"Poverty is just born in poverty, not as noble as a nobleman. There are some things, even if you find out, you dare not say it." Zhang Rongfang didn't dare to say more.
"In front of me, you can speak freely. You should know that my mother is Princess Yunxi! If you tell me, I will keep you safe!" Xue Ji raised his chin slightly, his expression cold and arrogant.
Zhang Rongfang sighed again.
"Young master, can you take a step to speak?"
"Why not?" Xue Ji raised his eyebrows.
Before he came here, someone told him that this Zhang Ying was not a good person, and that he covered the sky with one hand and had great influence in Zaitong Port. It is very likely that it is the murderer who caused the disappearance of Princess Yongxiang.
It's just that now, from his own perspective, it seems that Zhang Ying is a good-tempered old man.
It's not as overbearing as the man said.
He has bullied the other party so much, but the other party still treats him with such a good temper.
This Daoist Taoist, the skill of nourishing Qi is really extraordinary.
