Hong Zhenkang shed a few tears and told what happened.
Nineteen years ago, Yuan Chengfeng, the captain of the Divine Machine Division, killed the Charming Demon of the North. He also performed several great achievements one after another and became very popular.
Everyone thought that Yuan Chengfeng was the perfect candidate to be the next Chief of the Shenji Division, even Hong Zhenkang thought the same way.
The Chief of the Shenji Division is a senior member of the Zhengyi Rank, and their jurisdiction is also very special. They are responsible for the illegal cultivators in Qiancheng Country.
There are not many such cultivators, but there will always be a few around the princes and nobles, who are the so-called secret generals.
There are many secretaries around Hong Zhenkang. Thanks to their close contacts with Shenjisi, the secretaries in Prince Lu's Palace have always been safe and sound. Now that Yuan Chengfeng is favored, Hong Zhenkang naturally wants to get closer to him.
How close exactly is it?
After the two had contacted each other several times, Yuan Chengfeng was able to directly enter the Luwang Mansion without any communication.
At this point, Hong Zhenkang was full of regret: "I was blind and misjudged this traitor! That night, Yuan Chengfeng said he had something urgent and came to see me at the mansion. I didn't take any precautions, so I met him in the study.
When he met, he asked me where the Divine Machine Eye was? I was stunned for a while and told him that the Divine Machine Eye was naturally in the Divine Machine Division."
Hong Zhenji was also stunned: "The Divine Machine Eye is originally in the Divine Machine Division, and he is the captain of the Divine Machine Division. Why did he come to ask you? Is there a Divine Machine Eye elsewhere?"
Hong Zhenkang pondered for a long time and sighed: "There is a secret story here. I know this secret story, but I can't tell it."
Hong Zhenji was surprised: "What is the hidden secret? Why can't it be told?"
"Lao Ba, you don't know the mystery here. If I want to tell this hidden secret, even if I just have the idea of telling it out, my speech will immediately become inoperable and my breath will be cut off.
If I wanted to write it out, my arms would immediately become numb and my mind would become confused."
Hong Zhenji was confused when he heard what he said, but Xu Zhiqiong could understand what Hong Zhenkang meant.
The divine machine eye Yuan Chengfeng mentioned was not the divine machine eye summoned with a candlestick. He was referring to the original body of the divine machine eye, which was the stone eye in Xu Zhiqiong's hand.
Why can't we talk about this?
It seems that this matter involves a very high-level being, and whether it is spoken or heard, it will cause great harm.
This also explains one thing, why Yuan Chengfeng has not killed Hong Zhenkang for so many years.
Because Hong Zhenkang knew the whereabouts of the stone eye, and this stone eye was very important to Yuan Chengfeng.
Hong Zhenkang said: "I argued with Yuan Chengfeng for a few times, but in the end I didn't reveal the whereabouts of Shen Jiyan. I wanted to send him away with a few polite words, but I didn't think so. I suddenly couldn't speak.
Not only can I not speak, I can't write, my face also has no emotions, just like a clay sculpture.
I became a useless person, and Yuan Chengfeng became like me. That night, he used some means to take me to Heilu City and put me in a dungeon. From then on, I suffered in the dungeon for ten years.
Nine years!”
Hong Zhenji murmured to himself: "Nineteen years ago, Yuan Chengfeng died suddenly of a severe illness. I thought he was really dead, but I didn't expect..."
Through the descriptions of Hong Zhenkang, Hong Zhenji and Shan Zhongming, Xu Zhiqiong clarified the context of the matter.
Yuan Chengfeng first went to the north and killed the emperor's eldest son Hong Huaxiao, also known as the Charming Demon.
Afterwards, his reputation grew greatly and he repeatedly performed extraordinary feats, making him the perfect candidate to be the next chief of the Shenji Division.
At that time, Shan Zhongming was also competing for the leadership of the Shenji Division. This ignorant idiot faced Yuan Chengfeng, who had great military exploits, and had murderous intentions and wanted to poison Yuan Chengfeng to death.
With Shan Zhongming's IQ, he had no ability to harm Yuan Chengfeng, but Yuan Chengfeng made full use of this opportunity and created a fake death for himself.
Facts have proved that his strategy is successful.
According to the time clues of Hong Zhenji and Hong Zhenkang, Yuan Chengfeng went to Hong Zhenkang's mansion on the night he faked his death. Before the news leaked out, Yuan Chengfeng once again deceived Hong Zhenkang's trust and let him unknowingly fall into the orifice-sealing technique.
Lost the ability to express.
Yuan Chengfeng took this opportunity and used pretentious skills to transform himself into Hong Zhenkang, replacing Hong Zhenkang as the king of records.
As for Yuan Chengfeng, as the Chief of the Divine Machine, his original identity was also "removed" by Shan Zhongming. Even if someone investigates the matter afterwards, it will only be investigated on Shan Zhongming.
There was no omission in the plan, and it was done flawlessly. There was just one thing that Xu Zhiqiong didn't understand.
Why does Yuan Chengfeng want the true form of the divine machine eye?
Hong Zhenkang shook his head and said: "I don't know the whole story. Over the years, he has tortured me from time to time, trying to find out the whereabouts of the magic eye. I really can't tell him, so I can only grit my teeth and suffer!"
Speaking of this, Hong Zhenkang was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
"Brother Qi, you have suffered!" Hong Zhenji wiped his eyes hard with his sleeve, but not a single tear came out.
Friendship is a luxury item among the royal family. One day they are brothers, but tomorrow they may become mortal enemies.
And even if Hong Jinki really has feelings for Hong Jinkang, now is not the time to reminisce about the old relationship.
The original King of Lu was pretended by Yuan Chengfeng, and the real King of Lu is back. This is an excellent opportunity to overthrow the fake King of Lu and all his forces.
Hong Zhenji stood up and said: "Brother Qi, don't worry, I will go to the main hall to report to the Lord God and let the Lord uphold justice for Brother Seventh!"
As soon as he heard that he was going to see the Lord of Gods, Hong Zhenkang also became energetic. The two brothers were about to go out, but they saw Xu Zhiqiong looking at each other with a cold expression.
Upon seeing this, Hong Zhenji sat back in his seat and speculated on Xu Zhiqiong's intentions.
Xu Zhiqiong gave him some tips: "Your Highness, repeat a sentence, how many times do you want me to say it?"
The throne was earned by Hong Jinji himself, not given to him by Hong Juncheng.
It is still unknown what Hong Juncheng will do if the real Hong Zhenkang is handed over to Hong Juncheng.
Hong Juncheng and Fake Record King Yuan Chengfeng have been fighting overtly and covertly. Fake Record King has a third-level cultivation level of chaos and impermanence. Hong Juncheng must know this.
But the real Hong Zhenkang did not have the cultivation of the Tao of Impermanence, and Hong Juncheng was bound to know this.
He had known for a long time that King Lu was a fake, but he never revealed it. Naturally, he had his own purpose in doing so.
Now Hong Zhenji is taking Hong Zhenkang to find Hong Juncheng, asking God to be fair. There is no doubt whether Hong Zhenkang will come back alive, so how can he talk about justice?
With Hong Juncheng's ruthlessness, Hong Zhenkang and Hong Zhenji are likely to be silenced if justice is not forthcoming.
Xu Zhiqiong reminded him a few more words, and Hong Zhenji understood what he meant.
But the real Hong Zhenkang returned to Shenlin City, and such a good opportunity must not be left alone. Hong Zhenji asked Xu Zhiqiong for advice, and Xu Zhiqiong had already made a plan.
From the first time he met the real Hong Zhenkang, Xu Zhiqiong wanted to rescue him and blackmail Yuan Chengfeng.
However, Xu Zhiqiong was afraid of Yuan Chengfeng's strength and worried that he would push too hard and not be able to control the situation, but he also broke this clue, so he did not act rashly.
Now that Yuan Chengfeng is seriously injured, the time has come.
Xu Zhiqiong asked Hong Zhenji: "Is there anything hidden in your house?"
Hong Zhenji didn't know how to answer this question.
"Of course there are secrets, but Marquis Yun, don't worry, I haven't placed any secrets around you."
"I'm not talking about your secret," Xu Zhiqiong shook his head, "I'm talking about, is there any secret in your mansion that records the prince's secret?"
Hong Zhenji nodded and said: "I just found one yesterday and I was about to deal with him."
"Don't rush to deal with it," Xu Zhiqiong smiled, "Let's borrow it first."
…
In the afternoon, a maid came to the kitchen and asked the chef to prepare a table of good wine and food, which was waiting for immediate use.
The chef was stunned: "We just had lunch, why do we need to buy wine and food again?"
The maid smiled: "Here comes someone. Hurry up. The prince is waiting."
The chef felt a little aggrieved: "Who on earth has to come at this time?"
The maid sighed: "There will be a big banquet in two days. Don't think about your leisure these days."
The chef lowered his voice and said: "It really doesn't make people calm down. Could it be that a distant relative has come to the prince's family?"
The maid smacked her lips: "Why are you so talkative? You only know that Marquis Yun has brought someone with you. I don't know anything else."
The chef ordered people to prepare food and wine, called a servant, gave him a money bag, and said, "Go to the market and buy me some salt."
The servant took the money bag to the market, bought salt from the Salt and Vinegar Store, and handed the bag of money and the money bag to the official of the Salt and Vinegar Store.
The official took the money bag, suddenly felt unwell, and asked for leave from the steward.
After the steward was done, the official went back, changed into casual clothes, and went to Prince Lu's Mansion.
When they arrived at Prince Lu's Mansion, the housekeeper took the officials to the study.
Yuan Chengfeng was not in the study, but there was a row of candles left there.
The official lit the candle and disappeared in an instant.
…
Yuan Chengfeng was sitting silently in the main hall of a house when the official came to see him.
The officer saluted and handed the money bag directly to Yuan Chengfeng without saying a word.
Yuan Chengfeng opened the money bag, since no one had seen it before. He emptied the silver coins inside and took out the lining of the money bag.
After reading the two lines of words on the lining, Yuan Chengfeng burned the money bag and ordered the officials: "Don't go back to Shenlin City again, stay here."
The official gave a salute and immediately withdrew.
"Xu Zhiqiong, Hong Zhenji, if you want to fight to the death, I will accompany you to fight to the death!" As he spoke, Yuan Chengfeng covered his chest.
Some blood seeped out from his clothes. Yuan Chengfeng took off his clothes and re-bandaged the wound on his chest.
Through the wound, one could see five hearts beating together in the chest. Two of the hearts were still alive, two were gradually weakening, and one heart almost stopped beating.
Yuan Chengfeng took out the almost non-beating heart from his chest and threw it into the brazier to burn it.
There was a burst of thick smoke, and a sigh came from the room: "Brother Yuan, you have been reduced to this situation, why do you want to live and die?"
Yuan Chengfeng wiped away the blood, gasped and said, "Brother Liang, how much better is your situation than me?"
"Since the situation is not good, we must work together to find me a domineering soul and a body with seed blood. I will help you win this battle."
