Chapter 182: A Tricky Errand
Chu Xian knew that he owed Su Wenzheng a favor this time.
The only problem now is that Chu Xian feels that the purpose of the Dong Candle Division's recruitment of this 'Captain with a Guard' this time is not just a lack of people.
Chu Xian had a feeling that this time, there should be a special reason.
That's a question.
However, this question was answered after reading the booklet left in the house, and for the next two days, Chu Xian stayed in this dark room, and he didn't even go out.
From the eighth grade, promoted to the eighth grade, it will also be changed in the official canon, naturally, the blessings of holy power will also come one after another, but Chu Xian did not feel happy about this, but had a dignified face.
Because, this time, the burden on him seems to be a bit heavy.
And it's hard.
It's very difficult.
It is not to govern a county, not trivial things on the surface, but a kind of secret fight, predictable, bloody and bloody.
The book in the room is clearly written.
This matter has to be talked about from the beginning, and it involves the trouble of the Liangzhou Heavenly Buddha Gate that Chu Xian has always wanted to solve.
Thinking of the Heavenly Buddha Gate, Chu Xian thought of the Tibetan Sea monk, the other party was scheming, extremely cunning, but also very powerful, and was indeed a great enemy.
Chu Xian didn't find a chance, if he had the opportunity, he would definitely get rid of this big trouble.
In fact, Chu Xian could see that the Heavenly Buddha Gate was a great disaster and must be eradicated, so how could those officials of the Holy Dynasty not see it?
No one is stupid.
No one is blind.
But on the contrary, the Heavenly Buddha Gate has been free for so many years, and even the power is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more believers, and now its influence in Liangzhou has surpassed the orthodox Buddhism and Taoism.
The reasons for this result are extremely complex, and some of them are also mentioned in the booklet, but they are only hints, to put it simply, the Heavenly Buddha Gate can be safe and sound for so many years, and no one cares about it, it is obviously impossible.
In other words, the Heavenly Buddha Gate has a protective umbrella.
And the person who can take care of the Heavenly Buddha Gate is obviously not an ordinary person, but must be a high-powered figure.
In the booklet, that's all it takes, and it only says that the person who takes care of the Heavenly Buddha Gate is a descendant of Taizong.
Although it's just this sentence, it's scary enough, the descendants of Taizong, this alone is full of weight.
In addition, the Holy Dynasty's investigation of the Heavenly Buddha Gate has not been a year or two, but recently, it has only begun to really investigate and deal with this evil demonic outer way, and the reason for this is that this Heavenly Buddha Gate has reached the point where it must be eliminated, and then let the other party expand and develop, it is likely that it will shake the foundation of the Holy Dynasty.
In this way, even if there is a descendant of Taizong behind the Heavenly Buddha Gate, the Holy Dynasty will investigate it.
It's like at the beginning, the other party just carried a knife and walked around at your door, although there was danger, but you could still bear it, but one day, the other party actually wanted to enter your house, then you couldn't bear it anymore.
However, Chu Xian felt that there must be a deeper reason for this, it was impossible to feel that there was a threat before, but the threat was not big, so he let it go, and now he felt that the threat was too big to do it, ordinary people might do this, but the Tiantang Holy Dynasty would definitely not be so visionless.
Otherwise, the Holy Dynasty would not have prospered for a thousand years.
It's just that it wasn't written in the booklet, and Chu Xian didn't know the deeper reason, in short, now even the Dong Candle Division has begun to investigate the Heavenly Buddha Gate, and the direction of the investigation is to see if there is any collusion with the Heavenly Buddha Gate among the officials, and it is estimated that it will not be long before a formal decree will be issued to list the Heavenly Buddha Gate as a cult and begin to be completely purged. When the time comes, there is no doubt about how many temples, how many temples are pushed, how many people are arrested, those who are guilty, those who are imprisoned, and those who are extremely heinous will be beheaded.
Knowing this news, Chu Xian was naturally happy, but at the same time, he felt a little surprised.
Because, in the memory of the previous life, the Holy Dynasty investigated the Heavenly Buddha Gate five years later.
In this life, what happened and why did it come early?
Chu Xian thought about it carefully and guessed a possibility, perhaps, it was because the Seven Demon Kings invaded Liangzhou in advance, or the reason why the land of Liangzhou was negligent in defense was also related to the Heavenly Buddha Gate.
Of course, it may also be for other reasons, but what is the real reason, Chu Xian doesn't know, this is not what Chu Xian should care about now.
Besides, the document left by the Dong Candle Division, in it, there is Chu Xian's responsibility, that is, the errand assigned to him.
It is not to investigate officials, nor to investigate the evidence of the troubled times of the Heavenly Buddha Gate, but to investigate the traitors.
To be precise, it is the mole in the Cave Candle Division.
Half a month ago, when the Cave Candle Division searched for a high-ranking official of the Holy Dynasty who colluded with the Heavenly Buddha Gate, something went wrong, and more than a dozen Cave Candle guards sent and a Fengjian lieutenant were all killed, and the high-ranking official of the Holy Dynasty actually didn't know what method he used, abolished the official talisman, covered up the official power, and it was difficult to explore and pursue.
Something like this had never happened before, and that's not all, almost at the same time, one of the guards who had penetrated into the Heavenly Buddha Gate was killed.
In the Cave Candle Division, there are all the life cards of officials and internal guards, if they are dead, the life cards will be directly cracked, and if the soul is destroyed, the life cards will turn into a cloud of flying ashes.
The internal guard who was a 'spy' in the Heavenly Buddha Gate turned his life card directly into ashes, which means that this internal guard is dead and dead.
The Cave Candle Division has always been safe in doing things, and there has been almost no failure, and even in the dictionary of the Cave Candle Division, there is no such thing as failure. But that time, they just failed, and they suffered two big losses in a row.
And these two things are extremely secretive things, and it is impossible for outsiders to know, especially the identity of the internal guard, which is even less known, so the high-level of the Cave Candle Division only knew that they had a traitor inside.
Since this is the case, then this traitor must be dug out as soon as possible, otherwise it will be like a fish in the throat, and maybe, every move of the cave candle division is under the monitoring of the traitor.
But after checking for a few days, there was no result, and there were suspicious people, but they couldn't be sure.
After all, those who can enter the Cave Candle Division are all elites from a hundred, or even one in a thousand, and that traitor is the elite of the elite, and his means of self-concealment can be described as perfect, and his camouflage ability is even more impeccable.
Therefore, the Cave Candle Division thought of using a newcomer to investigate this traitor, first, it will not attract the attention of the traitor, after all, the new Cave Candle Division, the top will not distribute such an important errand, and second, to be able to evaluate everyone more objectively, sometimes, if you are familiar with each other, it will be easier to hide some things, the most important point, now in the Cave Candle Division, everyone is suspicious, so that finding someone from the outside to investigate, at least you can ensure that the person investigating the case is not a traitor.
Of course, the newcomer to be used, the premise is that he is a master who is extremely good at investigating cases, so that it is possible to find out the traitor.
Chu Xian estimated that the reason why Dong Zhu Si would consider himself must be because of the case in Fengcheng.
Now the person who is investigating the traitor in the Dong Candle Division is definitely not the only one, but they don't know each other, according to that document, Chu Xian only deals with the deputy commander Wei Chi Yong, that is to say, if he finds anything, he can directly inform Wei Chi Yong, and he doesn't even need to tell Yan Ziji, his nominal boss.
In the book in the room, the process of those two things and all the clues have been recorded in detail, Chu Xian has read it once, and he has already recorded all the contents of the thick book in the Shenhai Library.
Since it is his duty to find a traitor, Chu Xian must do a good job in this matter.
What's more, sorting out clues, peeling off the cocoon, and checking and reasoning are Chu Xian's strengths, but this time it is more difficult and more dangerous.
has the ability and dares to do things in the Cave Candle Division, that traitor must be unusual, and if you are not careful to deal with such a character, you may lead to death.
Now, Chu Xian can only look for clues from those two incidents that may be leaks of secrets by the traitor.
First of all, in the matter of rounding up the high-ranking officials of the Holy Dynasty who colluded to protect the Heavenly Buddha Gate, the people and horses sent by the Dong Candle Division were all elites, and they were bound to win, but they encountered a trap, and no one knew the specific situation, and the people who stayed behind in the Dong Candle Division saw more than a dozen life cards broken together, and then turned into ashes, so they knew that something was wrong, and when the people behind rushed over, the senior official was already nowhere to be found, only to see a broken corpse, and the internal guard captain sent to the school was all killed and destroyed.
Obviously, someone reported in advance, and the other party arranged a killing game, Rao is cave candle guard is brave, and he was calculated, and he was also a piece of meat on the board, which was slaughtered by others.
The person who arranged this matter was Lord Chi Yong, the deputy commander of the capital, and the only people who knew about it were his own people in the Dong Candle Division.
And the other internal guard who was sent to the Tianfomen undercover suddenly died, which must have been known by the Tianfomen, causing the disaster of killing.
But the question is, how could the Heavenly Buddha Sect know such a secret thing?
There are very few people who know about such a confidential matter as an undercover spy, even within the Cave Candle Division, but it is still leaked.
Combining the two things, the matter of the traitor is already a certainty.
In the booklet, the people who may know these two things are already listed above, including resumes, because there are more than thirty people, and it is difficult to find the traitor from them.
But no matter how difficult things are, there is a clue to be found, Chu Xian was not frightened by this tricky errand, but immediately began to screen.
He doesn't need pen and paper, and he doesn't even need to compare the content of the book, having the Shenhai Library has this advantage, no matter how complex things are, they can be presented one by one in the Shenhai, including many details, and it is easier to compare and screen, from this point alone, Chu Xian alone is worth the wisdom of ten people, and the more clues the more complicated, for Chu Xian, the more it can show the role of the Shenhai Library.
In fact, the more than 30 people in the document are already people who have been screened and investigated by the Cave Candle Division and have the opportunity to access confidential information.
Chu Xian spent two days screening these more than thirty people again, listing three categories of people, the first category, the most suspected, the latter two categories, reducing the suspicion one by one, in fact, the suspects who were listed as the third category are almost unlikely to be moles.
