After a long time..,
Liu Xiaojiang followed Xu San, Xu Si, and the others back to the villa near the company branch. Because he had discussed with Zhang Chulan earlier that they would find a time to exchange the information they had obtained after the Luo Tian ritual ended, Xu San and Xu Si found a reason to temporarily send Liu Yanyan away.
However, what was to come could not be avoided,
When Liu Yanyan left, she did not even care about what others thought. She directly 'requested' Liu Xiaojiang to find a time to 'date' her for a few days before leaving Huabei...
It had to be said that..,
Liu Xiaojiang was indeed feeling a little overwhelmed because of Liu Yanyan. On one hand, he did not want others to think that he was very close to Liu Yanyan when he was investigating the Jia-Shen Rebellion and the eight strange techniques, lest some blind fellows find an innocent girl like Liu Yanyan.
On the other hand..,
Even if Liu Yanyan really recognized him..,
He did not want this girl to discover his zombie identity, but he had no idea how to explain and hide his identity. He was not confident that he could deceive a girl who had known him from the beginning.
But if he could not explain..,
Even if Liu Yanyan would not easily expose his identity, there was no doubt that it would increase the risk of his identity being exposed..
Tsk!
There was no other way!
He did need the help of others on these matters!
..
A moment later..,
In the living room of the villa..,
Liu Xiaojiang silently had a simple meal with Xu San, Xu Si, and the others. He sat on a small stool and saw that other than Feng Bao, the other three had already put down their bowls and chopsticks, he immediately placed his chopsticks gently on the table.
"Third Brother, Fourth Brother, Zhang Chulan, tell me now, what did you know in the Luo Tian ritual?"
Hearing this..,
Feng Bao paused in her action of picking up the food, but when she saw that Xu San, Xu Si, and Zhang Chulan were also present, she did not have any intention of getting involved. She only paused for a moment before continuing to eat.
"You're not eating anymore?"
Xu Si put the cigarette in his hand into the ashtray. He glanced at Zhang Chulan and said,
"Oh, if it's just this matter, I'll let Zhang Chulan talk to you. After all, you've already discussed it in advance. You don't mind me and Xu San being the audience here, right?"
Liu Xiaojiang knew that Zhang Chulan, Xu San, and Xu Si wore the same pants. He shook his head and looked at Zhang Chulan. "Zhang Chulan, are you going to speak first … or should I?"
Hearing this,
Zhang Chulan lit a cigarette and put it in his mouth. "Brother Liu, let me speak first. After all, I didn't get much useful information from the Luo Tian ritual this time. Instead, I only have some guesses that I want to verify with you."
"Okay, go ahead." Liu Xiaojiang nodded, indicating for Zhang Chulan to continue.
"Okay." Zhang Chulan nodded and said, "To be honest, even if Brother Liu didn't know before, you should know now that we went to Mount Longhu this time not for the Tongtian Talisman and the so-called Celestial Master inheritance, but to investigate some specific details of my grandfather's past."
"After all, whether it's the information that Brother Liu investigated for us or the situation that we confirmed ourselves, my grandfather, Zhang Huaiyi, did have a very close relationship with the Tenshi Province back then. I've already received a clear reply from the Celestial Master and the others."
"Zhang Xilin is a fake name that my grandfather used to avoid trouble. Zhang Huaiyi is his real name. Back then, not only was he the personal disciple of the Celestial Master of Tenshi Province, but he was also one of the thirty-six thieves who caused the Jia-Shen rebellion. He even developed one of the eight incredible skills.
The source of the gas. "
At this point,
He raised his eyes and looked at Liu Xiaojiang across the table. "Brother Liu, you entered the sect of Tenshi Province before the Luo Tian ritual began, so I want to know if this Luo Tian ritual … was set up to trap me?"
"… Yes."
Liu Xiaojiang nodded slowly and said, "This Luo Tian ritual was indeed held to keep you on the mountain, but it wasn't just to trap you. It was more to protect you."
"Okay, let's not talk about the reason for now."
After Zhang Chulan received confirmation, he continued, "It's not that I can't understand the actions of the Grand Master and the others, because from their attitude towards my grandfather, they didn't shout and kill him like the others did to the thirty-six thieves."
"However, after I won the Luo Tian ritual and was about to find out the truth from the Grand Master, I suddenly found out that the Grand Master was about to give me the Celestial Master's Degree. He didn't mention some of the things that happened back then. It seemed that only by giving me the Celestial Master's Degree could he tell me the truth."
"Brother Liu, you know that I didn't go to Mount Longhu for the Celestial Master. I just wanted to find out the truth from the Grand Master. However, after realizing that only the Celestial Master's Degree could let me know the truth, to be honest … I hesitated."
"On one hand, I really wanted to know the truth of that year, so I wanted to accept the Celestial Master's Degree. On the other hand, I began to doubt the Grand Master's attitude. I wondered why the Grand Master would only tell me the truth after the ceremony."
"Then …"
"The ceremony for the Celestial Master's Degree began. At that moment … Brother Liu, do you know that the Grand Master who was about to pass the Celestial Master's Degree to my Grand Master looked like my grandfather when he carved the Chastity Sand on me back then?"
"So …"
"I guessed that the Celestial Master's Degree might be a restriction technique like the Chastity Sand, but its effect was tens of thousands of times better than the Chastity Sand. It wasn't that the Grand Master didn't want to tell me the truth back then, but because of the restriction on the Chastity Sand, it was impossible for him to tell me everything."
"If I accepted the Celestial Master's Degree, it was indeed possible for me to know everything that happened back then. However, at the same time, I would be affected by this restriction and become unable to talk to anyone about these things like the Grand Master. Of course … these were all my guesses, so I asked the Grand Master a question."
"In the end, the Grand Master's reaction directly confirmed my guess."
At this point..,
He raised his head again to look at Liu Xiaojiang, who was frowning, and said, "Brother Liu, my question at that time was, if I passed the Celestial Master's Degree to me, what would happen to the Grand Master in the future? Combined with the Grand Master's reaction … if the Celestial Master lost the Celestial Master's Degree, he would die,
Right? "
As soon as he said that..,
Xu San and Xu Si were also stunned. They did not understand why Zhang Chulan would say that.
On the other side..,
When Liu Xiaojiang heard the conclusion of Zhang Chulan's analysis, even if he didn't want to answer this question, but considering his next request, he still pretended to be calm and nodded.
"Yes, and no. I can only say that you guessed it … Even if it's not right, it's not far off. I believe that in the eyes of some disciples who don't know about it, the situation after the Celestial Master lost the Celestial Master's Degree should not be a good thing."
