Chapter 197: The Ghost Appears Within
When Yan Ziji heard this, he suddenly realized and didn't ask again.
Seeing that everyone in the Cave Candle Division was about to evacuate, at this time, Chu Xian suddenly spoke: "Ladies and gentlemen, please wait a minute. ”
Chu Xian's voice was not small, and everyone stopped at the moment and looked at Chu Xian, some of them frowned, and some were even more dissatisfied.
Wei Chiyong said at this time: "Captain Chu, what's the matter with you?"
Yan Ziji was also giving Chu Xian a look, obviously, if it wasn't a particularly important matter, it was really not suitable to say it in this situation and occasion.
Chu Xian nodded at Yan Ziji, although this boss is not good at talking on weekdays, Chu Xian knows that the other party and Wei Chiyong are sincerely towards him, after all, he is the two who summoned him to the Cave Candle Division.
But what you have to say, you can only say it now.
Since the mastermind behind the scenes arranged for the monk of Zanghai to deal with him, and when he saw him appear, he must have been on guard, and it is estimated that after tonight, the mastermind behind the scenes will run away.
In addition, all the people present are masters, so even if the mastermind behind the scenes is cultivated, once it is exposed, it will only be caught.
Therefore, Chu Xian must find out the mastermind behind the scenes in this situation.
"If it's not something important, go back and talk about it. Wei Chiyong said again at this time, which can be regarded as a kind reminder.
Chu Xian said: "It's about the traitor of the Cave Candle Division. ”
Everyone was shocked, what is this Chu Xian doing now about this matter?
The captain of the sword head over there looked unkind: "Captain Chu, what do you want to say, could it be that you know who is the traitor of the Cave Candle Division?" ”
These words have the meaning of squeezing Chu Xian, but Chu Xian is not angry, but said with a straight face: "Although Lord Feng Chong is the most suspicious, he was framed by the real traitor, so he is not a collaborator and a traitor. ”
"It's just nonsense, Captain Chu, you have to know that if you say these things on this occasion, you have to take responsibility, Dong Zhu Si, not a place for jokes. ”
Chu Xian nodded: "I, Chu Xian, am not joking, Lord Feng Chong was indeed framed." ”
"The details of the last mission, only Feng Chong knows, so he was ambushed, let me ask, if it wasn't Feng Chong's collaboration with the enemy, how could the thieves of the Buddha Gate arrange a net for you to drill that day?"
Chu Xian immediately retorted: "According to common sense, assuming that Lord Feng Chong is a traitor, then he is playing a game of bad chess this time, because the final result is to make himself the most suspicious person, and even be arrested and interrogated for this, this is the first, and second, if it is a real traitor who confuses Lord Feng Chong with false information in advance, and at the same time deliberately uses false information to guide Lord Feng Chong to recapture the Scorpion Tail Sword, in this way, you can also set a trap in advance, and at the same time splash this basin of dirty water on Lord Feng Chong." ”
"You mean, someone forged clues and passed on the fake news by using the method of passing on the book through a candle?" asked Wei Chi Yong over there.
Chu Xian nodded: "That's true, if it's that traitor, it shouldn't be difficult to figure out the method of passing the book through the cave candle." ”
The person who questioned Chu Xian before pondered for a moment and did not say anything more.
Chu Xian simply walked to the front at this time and continued: "As we all know, I, Chu Xian, am nominally a lieutenant, but in fact I was called to investigate the case of internal traitors. The traitor in the Cave Candle Division is very deeply hidden, and has access to many core secrets, so that many people in the Cave Candle Division can be excluded, and I have submitted a list of five people to Lord Fudutong before, and at that time I concluded that the traitor is among these five people. ”
"Which five?" someone asked.
Chu Xian glanced at Wei Chi Yong, and seeing that the latter nodded, Chu Xian said: "These five people are the soldier commander Lu Jiang, the soldier commander He Suixin, the secret hall palm seal Feng Chong, the deacon of the order hall Mo Gan, and the clerk Ji Wen." ”
Coincidentally, the manpower present, except for Mo Gan and Feng Chong, the deacons of the Destiny Hall, the other three people were there.
Ji Wen looked at Chu Xian from the side at this time, and didn't seem to be angry because Chu Xian listed her as a suspect.
The others were also frightened by Chu Xian's bold words, you must know that this suspicion can be said as much as you want behind the scenes, but at this moment, Chu Xian actually said this matter in front of everyone, which is tantamount to digging a pit for himself.
It is conceivable that if Chu Xian can't say a result today, then his career will end here.
Chu Xian was not afraid: "Among these five people, Deacon Mo Gan was the first one I ruled out suspicions. ”
Saying that, how to suspect Mo Gan and how to rule out the reason for suspicion, Chu Xian told it very clearly and clearly, and everyone nodded when they heard it, at least in the case of narration, Chu Xian did have two brushes.
"Lord Feng Chong is not a traitor, I have already explained the reason just now. After Chu Xian finished speaking, there was immediately a humane: "According to what you said, among the three people of Lu Jiang, He Suixin, and Ji Wen, there must be that traitor?"
Chu Xian nodded: "But tonight, the suspicion of the clerical officer Ji Wen has also been ruled out, I asked just now, Lord Ji Wen has followed the two Lord Du Tong from beginning to end, and this point can prove that Lord Ji Wen is not a traitor." ”
"Joke? What kind of evidence is this?" Someone was quite dissatisfied, it was a school captain, and Lu Jiang pulled it up, because according to Chu Xian's statement, Ji Wen was excluded, and there were only two people left, Lu Jiang and He Suixin.
Over there, Lu Jiang also smiled.
"Captain Chu, what do you mean, am I, Lu Jiang, the traitor? Or is it my adjutant He Suixin who is the traitor?"
After speaking, many people around him were laughing, obviously extremely disdainful of Chu Xian's reasoning, in their words, this reasoning was full of loopholes.
Chu Xian didn't laugh, not only did he not laugh, but he still had a serious face.
"Captain Lu, since you say so, you might as well listen to my assumptions. ”
"Okay, Captain Chu, you say. ”
Lu Jiang also smiled at this moment and stared at Chu Xian.
Chu Xian said: "Suppose, Captain Lu, you are a traitor, with your authority and understanding of the Cave Candle Division, it is not difficult to cultivate a few spies loyal to you, you have been a soldier commander for fifteen years, and more than half of the Cave Candle Guards of the Cave Candle Division, I am afraid that more than half of them are trained by you." ”
"And then?" Lu Jiang asked.
Chu Xian said: "Suppose, Captain Lu, you are a traitor, that night, you can use the wine you bring with you to let your people know our location, sometimes, it is still good to read a little more books, at least you can know that there are many special herbs, added to the wine, you can't smell any smell from the wine, but as long as you drink it and enter the body, it will produce a special smell, so that even if you don't go to the newspaper at that time, the enemy can know our location." Similarly, you led people to infiltrate the cottage, but in fact they were not attacked, and the ten cave candle guards also died at your hands. ”
Lu Jiang smiled: "Captain Chu, what you said is all hypothesis, don't forget, for that mission, I became a waste, let me ask, if I were a traitor, would I do this kind of thing?"
"Why not?" Chu Xian asked rhetorically: "The inner ghost will naturally find ways to eliminate its own suspicions, and since ancient times, self-harm has been the best method. ”
At this moment, Chu Xian and Lu Jiang are-for-tat, and the people around them, including the two Dutong adults, all have serious expressions, if they think Chu Xian is messing around at first, but after Chu Xian's narration and careful thinking, they feel very reasonable. A lot of things that I couldn't figure out before are also open up at the moment.
At this time, Lu Jiang shook his head again and again: "Ridiculous, it's simply ridiculous, I have a broken arm, no matter how difficult it is to advance in martial arts from now on, it is a cultivation technique, and there can be no result, Chu Xian, I regard you as the brother of Dong Zhu Si, you actually stabbed me at such a time and slandered me, it is really chilling." ”
Chu Xian's face remained unchanged, he just stared at Lu Jiang, and he didn't care about the cave guards and captains who were instigated by Lu Jiang's words and glared at him angrily, but said word by word: "Say it in your conscience, Captain Lu, do you really treat them as brothers?"
Lu Jiang's face changed, and just as he was about to say more, Chu Xian had already arrived first: "Just now it was just Chu Xian's assumption, and Captain Lu doesn't need to care, so I'll continue to assume." ”
After speaking, the topic jumped and directly turned to the previous invasion of the demon clan.
Everyone couldn't react for a while, and they didn't understand what Chu Xian was going to do at this time, originally said that the traitor said well, how could he be involved in the previous invasion of the Liangzhou demon clan.
Finally, someone couldn't listen to it anymore and said: "Captain Chu, we know that you served as a county magistrate in Liangzhou before, and you know very well the situation of the demon clan's invasion, but what does this matter have to do with the traitor of the Cave Candle Division?"
"It's related!" Chu Xian's tone was very affirmative: "I hadn't entered the Cave Candle Division at that time, and I didn't know a lot of things, so I wanted to ask, when the Demon Clan invaded, that is, the most dangerous period, did there also spies send back news that the Demon Clan might sneak into Shacheng, so the Cave Candle Division also sent a lot of people as today?"
As soon as these words were said, all the officials of the Cave Candle Division present were stunned.
Chu Xian saw everyone's reactions, and knew that he had guessed correctly.
At that moment, Chu Xian said again: "On the surface, the invasion of the demon clan and the troubled times of the Heavenly Buddha Gate, these two things seem to be incompatible, but if the Falling Wild Goose Pagoda is regarded as a line, these two things can be connected together, don't you think it's a coincidence, why did the demon clan come to the Falling Wild Goose Pagoda to make trouble, and the remnants of the Heavenly Buddha Gate also came to the Falling Wild Goose Pagoda to make trouble?"
People who don't know are pondering, and those who know what place the Wild Goose Pagoda is, such as the capital and the deputy capital, all have a big change in complexion, obviously thinking of it together.
Chu Xian didn't tell the secret matter of the Falling Wild Goose Pagoda, this kind of thing, just point to the end, and it is best to pretend that he doesn't know, after all, the eye of the evil god is the secret of the Holy Dynasty, if he says it, when people ask him how he knows, it will be difficult to answer.
So Chu Xian said what he should say, what he shouldn't say, and he couldn't say half a word.
