Volume 48 Chapter 39

Seven days later, three new tombs stood on the hillside of the Tielongzong Xuantian Peak, where the Zongmen worshiped, on a hillside with green mountains and green waters.

The weather was fine yesterday, but in the morning of the last few days, it was raining lightly at the location of the Iron Dragon Sect's mountain gate.

Drizzle wanted to break their souls one after another.

Most of the mourners had already dispersed, only the indistinct cries of the relatives of the deceased still echoed in the mountains. Zhang Tie did not leave, but stood blankly in front of the three new graves, looking at the tombstones. The three black and white crystal photos above.

Zhang Tie was wearing a black linen robe, staring blankly at the three new graves, speechless, the falling rain fell with the wind, and after a while, Zhang Tie's hair and eyebrows were wet.

Ma Aiyun's tomb is in the middle. Among the two new tombs on both sides of Ma Aiyun's tomb are the cemeteries of Gu Caidie and Yuan Ziyi. In the cemetery of Gu Caidie and Yuan Ziyi, only a few clothes worn by the two people are buried. A piece of clothing and a few pieces of jewelry, these are the Clothes Tomb, the contents of the Clothes Tomb were brought by Zhang Tie to Huaiyuan City in Yingzhou, and then Zhang Tie put them in the coffin. The tombstones of the three people were also brought by Zhang Tie himself With your hands, use your fingers to write stroke by stroke on the hard tombstone.

In just a few days, from the death of the old man Zhang Haitian, to the time when he was poisoned by others, to the accident in Jinwu City, to the death of Ma Aiyun, Zhang Tie experienced setbacks and blows during this period, which he has never experienced in decades of.

In the drizzle, Zhang Tie's black figure stood on the hillside, looking a bit bleak, but in the bleakness, the straight back did not bend, but was like tempered steel Hard and straight.

Looking at Zhang Tie's straight back, Elder Mu Yuan had mixed feelings in his heart. For some reason, looking at Zhang Tie who was silent at this time, Elder Mu Yuan seemed to be watching a mountain standing in front of him.

"...Since Qianlongtang moved and evacuated to Taixia sixteen years ago, in these years, the one who presided over the training of Qianlongtang at Yingzhou base was an elder in the family. That elder was called Zhang Shifang, and he was from Huaiyuantang. The old man, a fourteenth-level war demon, has been working hard all these years since he took over Qianlongtang, and he has not made any mistakes. He has also cultivated a lot of talents for Huaiyuantang. , and then promoted to elders, Ma Aiyun and the others were under Zhang Shifang's subordinates at the beginning, and all major matters in Qianlongtang, as long as they do not rise to the level of elders, will be decided by him..."

Elder Mu Yuan stood behind Zhang Tie and said calmly. After Zhang Tie came back this time, Zhang Tie asked Elder Mu Yuan to secretly investigate some people and things related to Ma Aiyun's experience in the past few years in Huaiyuan Hall.

Elder Mu Yuan has been in charge of the Zongren Pavilion in Huaiyuan Hall for many years, and he is very familiar with all kinds of affairs in Huaiyuan Hall. At the same time, the network resources mastered by Elder Mu Yuan in Huaiyuan Hall are more convenient for these secret investigations. Zhang Tie Both Elder Mu Yuan and Elder Mu Yuan came from the Jinhaicheng lineage of Huaiyuan Hall. They have the same origin and closer blood relationship. Among the elders of the family, the relationship between Zhang Tie and Mu Yuan is extraordinary.

And that Zhang Shifang is the one that Ma Aiyun said has controlled her and taken away her children all these years—that person is in charge of Qianlongtang, a fourteenth-level war demon, and the elder of the family pavilion, who holds great power. A weak woman like Ma Aiyun basically has no ability to resist in front of such a person.

At the beginning, Ma Aiyun returned to Taixia with a group of disciples in Qianlongtang. During a routine physical examination of all the disciples in Qianlongtang, he was found to be pregnant. Zhang Yunshan then met Ma Aiyun.

Among the students of Qianlongtang, pregnancy is an extremely serious matter. In most cases, a female student who becomes pregnant before leaving Qianlongtang will be punished extremely severely. It is also difficult to give birth to a child who is pregnant.

After being found pregnant, Ma Aiyun initially wanted to keep the child, and at the same time, out of trust in the family elders and the Qianlongtang manager,

So I told Zhang Shifang about her and Zhang Tie, and Zhang Shifang's performance, at the beginning, also won the trust of Ma Aiyun - the matter of Ma Aiyun's pregnancy was hidden, and in Qianlongtang, almost no one knew. They also arranged a student task as a cover, so that Ma Aiyun left Qianlongtang, cultivated outside for a year, and quietly gave birth to the child.

After giving birth to the child, Ma Aiyun gradually fell into the control of the other party, unable to extricate himself.

When he came back from the danger this time, Zhang Tie was already at work. Because of the child, Zhang Tie did not startle the snake, but let Elder Mu Yuan act in secret. Unexpectedly, a few days after Ma Aiyun came back, even the news from Elder Mu Yuan There was no feedback, so I chose to leave.

"It was Zhang Shifang who arranged for the three female disciples Ma Aiyun, Gu Caidie, and Yuan Ziyi to go out on missions this time. On the night when the accident happened in Yehu Xiaozhu, Zhang Shifang died suddenly because of his practice. Afterwards, Zhang Shifang's family of 37 members has been detained and controlled by the Criminal Law Court of Huaiyuan Hall. These days, the Criminal Law Court has not interrogated anything from his family members. Through investigations these days, Zhang Shifang There was nothing wrong with him, he had never even left near Huaiyuan City in Yingzhou, no one had ever seen a little boy around Zhang Shifang, and Zhang Shifang's family had never heard him say anything about a little boy. , I sent people to quietly check the places where Zhang Shifang haunted Huaiyuan City in Yingzhou, and also visited the surrounding news, but there was no trace of the little boy. As for the inspection in Qianlongtang that you asked me to investigate The doctor about the student's physical condition also died in an accidental car accident fourteen years ago. At that time, this incident was just a trivial matter, and it did not cause any disturbance in Huaiyuan Hall. These are the only information I have learned these days ………”

"Which branch of Huaiyuan Hall did Zhang Shifang come from?" Zhang Tie asked calmly without turning around while looking at the tombstone.

This question was a bit sharp and sensitive, even a bit venomous, but after a slight silence for two seconds, Elder Mu Yuan still spoke, "Zhang Shifang came from the lineage of Yiyang City in Huaiyuan Hall!"

The line of Yiyang City is exactly the line of Zhang Taixuan's origin, and it is also the line of the Patriarch of Huaiyuantang.

...

Elder Mu Yuan left, and Tang De came again. Looking at Zhang Tie's back, Tang De sighed, "I have settled the families of Ma Aiyun, Gu Caidie and Yuan Ziyi, and there will be no more family members in their lives in the future." What worries and needs to worry about, people can't be resurrected after death, let him pass the past, don't embarrass yourself too much, you have tried your best, you are not a god, it is impossible to control everything!"

Zhang Tie turned around and looked at Tang De, "I never wanted to be a god, I just wanted to be a person, a good person, this is what my mother asked me from a young age, but now I find that in this world, you want To be a good person, a good person in everyone's eyes, is more difficult than to be a god, so I settle for the next best thing, and I will not be a good person. I just want to be a person with a clear conscience, a person who can come to Qingming next time. Here, someone who looks at the tombstones of the three senior sisters and has a clear conscience."

"What do you want to do?"

"Do what I have to do!"

After saying this, Zhang Tie strode away resolutely. When leaving, Zhang Tie took out the remote sensing communication ring of the Supreme Elder that Huaiyuantang had newly given him, and as the Supreme Elder of Huaiyuantang, Contact Zhang Taixuan directly—I want to meet Zhang Taixuan in the main hall of Huaiyuantang Ancestral Hall in Baohu Mountain this evening.

...

After finishing all this, Zhang Tie left the gate of Tielongzong in a flying boat and flew towards Baohu City in a flying boat...
