Hearing his question, Zhang Yu's expression remained calm.
Although Gongsun Shao used the word 'we', it sounded like the Yujing Xuanfu behind him was questioning him. But in reality, if the Yujing Xuanfu had any doubts about his condition, then it was definitely not Gongsun Shao who came here alone.
But if it was really Gongsun Shao alone or someone behind him who wanted to investigate, then were they not afraid that he would really become a monster of chaos? Or did they think that they had the means to deal with him?
He looked at Gongsun Shao and said, "I am certain that the two of them were eliminated at that time, leaving no survivors, and they were not infected."
Gongsun Shao's gaze was still fixed on him, "Why are you so confident?"
Zhang Yu said indifferently, "Because I am the Xuanting Patrol Guard."
Gongsun Shao looked at him, "I heard that the disciple of Ji Shouzhen also became a monster of chaos, and later this person went to find you?"
Zhang Yu said, "It is true. According to the investigation of the Xuanfu, this matter should be related to two unknown cultivators. Back then, the monster of chaos that Pang Li turned into attacked the people around me in Auspicious Light City. In the end, this person was taken away by two cultivators. It can be seen that there is a certain connection between these three people.
This disciple of Ji Shouzhen might have become a monster of chaos because of these two people. Otherwise, these two people would have avoided him. "
Gongsun Shao said, "There is no need for you to hide the identity of these two people. I also know that you have encountered the remnants of the Zhengqing lineage before. If this person used Pang Li to deal with you, it is reasonable. This way, he does not have to do anything himself, and even if he succeeds, he will not be infected.
However, since the Fellow Daoist beside the Patrol Officer has fought with Pang Chao before, could you call him out for a meeting? "
Zhang Yu looked at him. The meaning of this person's words was not only suspicious of him, but also that Xu Chengtong might have been infected. But it could be seen that the final spearhead here was vaguely pointing at him.
He said, "If Gongsun Shouzhen only knows about the past, then I can tell you frankly. But if you are here to investigate this matter, or even to find out something from a fellow cultivator, then you have to show me the Xuanting Imperial Decree."
Gongsun Shao frowned, then looked at him with a serious expression. Then he took a breath and said slowly, "Patrol Guard Zhang, let us be honest.
Patrol Guard, do you know that anything that involves Huo Heng is not so simple? It will even attract the attention of some Xuan Zun.
I'm only here to ask some questions today. If Patrol Guard Zhang tells the truth, then we can both save some face. But if we don't get any reliable results this time, then this matter won't end so easily. The next person who comes back to ask questions won't be as easy to talk to as me. This is probably not what Patrol Guard wants to see. "
Zhang Yu said calmly, "If it's just a private confirmation, it won't prove anything. The investigation will still come, and there will still be questions. I'd rather Gongsun Shouzhen invite Xuanting Imperial Decree to investigate thoroughly. This way, there can be a clear conclusion to this matter."
In his opinion, it would be extremely inappropriate to reach an investigation in private.
Since he could figure out this matter openly, why did he have to be sneaky?
If he compromised today, then everyone can use this matter to question him in the future. Perhaps someone will even say that if he wasn't guilty, why did he back down? "
Hearing him say this, Gongsun Shao stared at him for a moment. After pondering for a while, he took back the document on the side. With a light shake of his wrist, the document turned into a pile of powder.
He stood up and said, "In that case, today's matter will end here. In the future, there will be a suitable person to deal with Patrol Guard. I just hope that Patrol Guard will not tell anyone about the contents of the document."
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "The Emperor will strictly guard this matter."
Gongsun Shao bowed to him and walked out. He looked back at the residence and couldn't help touching a paper talisman hidden in his sleeve.
No one knew that before he came to Dongting, he had been summoned by a Xuan Zun.
That person gave him this thing. Although the Xuan Zun didn't say anything at that time, the meaning was very clear.
That was, if there was anything wrong with Zhang Yu and he showed signs of turning into a chaotic monster, or if he was unwilling to cooperate, then he could use this thing to take him down without hesitation.
But in the end, he still hesitated.
He didn't know whether it was because he felt that there was really no problem with this person, or because he was afraid of being used as a pawn by the Xuan Zun. In short, he didn't take this step and felt relieved for it.
However, just as he had said, since it involved Huo Heng, this matter would not end here. He would report this conversation truthfully.
After Gongsun Shao left, Zhang Yu also began to think.
According to Gongsun Shao. Huo Heng had once been under the protection of the powerful person in the Qingyang Upper Continent, and as far as he knew, the powerful person who had fallen into the path of chaos seemed to have some relationship with the Shuang Continent.
It was just that this person was not as crazy as other chaotic monsters. He seemed to have been sleeping, but he didn't know whether he was really sleeping or searching for something.
He still remembered that when he first came into contact with the forces of the Shuang Continent, he once fought with a Monk Hunjang who had joined the Shuang Continent. That person once said that the Shuang Continent had a way to keep the chaotic monsters sane.
He originally thought that the method was given by that powerful person, but now it seemed that this method could be brought by Huo Heng.
After the battle with Zhu Xuan, that powerful person had clearly been defeated, so Huo Heng naturally wouldn't stay in the Qingyang Upper Continent anymore. It would make sense if he came to Dongting, a remote place where Tianxia's forces couldn't reach.
Gongsun Shao said that this person's strength was unknown, which was also a big problem. But fortunately, Xuanting had already found this person's whereabouts, so this person shouldn't easily expose himself.
Since Xuanting was paying attention to this matter, he didn't need to care too much at this moment. Right now, he should first obtain the Third Yuan and see his future clearly.
After Gongsun Shao returned to his temporary residence, he wrote down his conversation with Zhang Yu in detail. First, he cast a Mana Restriction Talisman, then sealed it with a secret wax, and handed it to his trusted disciple, saying, "Send it to the Yujing as soon as possible, and tell them to send it to Xuanting quickly."
The disciple took the things, nodded heavily, and left.
Gongsun Shao held his chin and looked at the documents placed on the desk. These documents recorded information about the chaotic monsters, Daoist Ji, and that Pang Li. In addition, there were also the records of the two Daoist cultivators from Zhengqing's faction that he had just asked for.
There was a light in his eyes, and the slightly messy and complicated information in front of him seemed to be pulled out and organized in his consciousness.
After looking for a long time, his body leaned forward slightly, and his gaze became more serious, as if he had caught some hidden clues.
And at this moment, there was a soft call. "Master, Master?"
Gongsun Shao's feeling immediately dissipated. He raised his head unhappily, looked at the disciple in front of him, and said, "What's the matter?"
The disciple said, "Chief Xiang Xuan sent someone to invite you to talk to the Town Guardian."
Gongsun Shao thought, waved his hand, and said, "Go and tell Chief Xiang Xuan that I thank him for the invitation. As the Town Guardian, I need to solve the current problem of the Protectorate. When I have the time, I will pay him a visit."
After sending the disciple away, he continued to look at the documents in front of him, trying to find the inspiration that had just disappeared, but he was always a hair's breadth away.
After an unknown period of time, the disciple's voice sounded again.
Gongsun Shao's thoughts were interrupted again, and he couldn't help but frown deeply, but his tone didn't reveal any joy or anger. He asked, "What's the matter?"
The disciple was familiar with his master, and knew that he was unhappy now. He was slightly uneasy, but still calmed his mind, and handed over a letter in his hand, saying, "Master, a letter from Xuanting."
"Hmm?"
Gongsun Shao was a little confused. Although he had just sent out a letter, it was impossible for there to be a reply so quickly. But he quickly came to his senses, this should be another matter.
He reached out, took the letter, and opened it. At first, he was startled, but then his eyes became sharp. He put down the letter, and asked, "Where is Chief Patrol Zhang now?"
The disciple said, "I will go and ask now."
He left, and after a while, came back in, and said, "Master, the junior brother guarding there reported that Chief Patrol Zhang left with his servants and disciples, and also picked up a Xuanxiu from Xuanfu. It seems that he is preparing to go to the Protectorate. At this time, he should be on the way to the rooftop of the boat."
Gongsun Shao's expression changed, and he shouted, "Immediately send a message through the light, seal the rooftop of the boat, and stop them!"
The disciple hesitated, and said, "Master, I'm afraid we can't stop them. Chief Patrol Zhang is from the Eastern Court, and with his identity, who can stop him without a clear order from Xuanting?"
Gongsun Shao glanced at him, and said, "You are right, this is not the Yujing. You stay here and watch. I need to go there personally."
After giving his instructions, he strode out of the residence, and with a loud bang, he flew into the air.
After Zhang Yu packed everything up, he left his residence, and headed towards the rooftop of the boat. This time, in addition to bringing a few servants, Yan Yuming, and Xin Yao.
In addition, the new batch of Xuanfu disciples going to Qingyang Academy would also go with him.
After all, there was no direct path to the outer layer of the Protectorate, and they had to go back to Qingyang Academy. This was also on the way.
They came out of Taiyang Academy, and walked along the main road until they went out of the Western City Gate, and arrived at the rooftop of the boat.
The gigantic white boat was currently hovering above. Compared to the other flying boats, it was like a giant whale lying there quietly.
Zhang Yu sensed something, and he turned to Qing Shu, and said, "Take everyone onto the boat first."
Qing Shu nodded, and led everyone onto the boat.
Zhang Yu looked towards the southeast, and saw a white light flying towards him, and then it landed in front of him. The light split, and Gongsun Shao walked out, and said in a deep voice, "Chief Patrol Zhang, Xuanting has sent an order for you to stay in the Eastern Court and cooperate with the follow-up inspection!"
