Countless doubtful thoughts flashed through Zhao Qizheng's mind.
It wasn't until the police arrived that he came back to his senses.
He handed over the red cloth package he had picked up, and at the same time ordered the police to investigate carefully to find out whose family hired the master to ask for a secret marriage.
This is what Zhao Ren said to Su Jiu later.
In general they are similar.
"Uncle, where is that ring now?" Su Jiu, who had been listening to Zhao Qizheng's narration, opened her mouth and asked him.
"It's still in my hand now. It was precisely because of that ring that I entered the detention center." After hearing Su Jiu's inquiry, Zhao Qizheng thought for a moment, then spoke slowly and continued.
"At that time, I also took off the ring inexplicably and put it into my pocket. I always felt that this ring was very important to me and was weird."
"After the police came and took over the matter, I took the ring and returned to the county town, ready to start the handover work. It was just as I guessed. The next day, something happened, and I proposed to marry in secret.
A whole family was brutally murdered overnight.”
"When I got the news, I was stunned. My first reaction was to hide the ring. Within a few hours of hiding the ring, Master Zhou, who helped the family perform the shady marriage ceremony, found it.
Ask about the whereabouts of the ring."
"I didn't say that the ring was in my hand, I just denied that the ring was not in my hand. The master didn't get an answer from me this week. When he left, he only said one sentence, I will regret it."
"You know, Master Zhou is very famous. At that time, because I still had a job, he couldn't do anything to me. However, I never expected that Master Zhou usually looks like a master.
I didn't expect that he would be so despicable and shameless, and even threaten me with my family."
Having said this, Zhao Qizheng's face showed a hint of anger.
Su Jiu made an estimate in her mind, and based on her own thoughts, it seemed that the Feng Shui master killed by Zhao Ren in the abandoned factory should be the so-called Master Zhou.
No wonder Zhao Ren would fall into his hands again. Zhao Ren went to inquire about him. It would be strange if he didn't notice it.
"Master Zhou has very good connections and has close friendships with some people in Junnan. Originally, I was just punished for retreating, but I didn't expect that I would be imprisoned because I offended him."
"An ordinary person has such extraordinary strength. Even the top leaders can't help me. I am also careless. I have spent the past few decades in officialdom in vain."
Zhao Qizheng sighed with some regret.
Su Jiu listened without speaking, but she was thinking secretly in her heart.
"This week's master is probably related to the White Lotus Sect. Since ancient times in China, the White Lotus Sect has had many secrets. You are just an ordinary senior official. If I want to get rid of you, it is really just a matter of one sentence.
.”
Of course, Su Jiu would not say these words out loud. There are some things that she can just understand in her heart.
"I entered the detention center and went to court, and the charges turned out to be corruption and accepting bribes! Haha! I have been in the officialdom for decades and in the south of the county. I don't say that I am the great master of Qingtian. I just want to say that he is better than me.
I’m afraid there are not many people who are innocent.”
Zhao Qizheng seemed to be inspired by this. He laughed at himself, calmed down his emotions, and continued.
"I was sentenced to eight years in prison. This is the outcome of my top help. This week, the master threatened me with my family. I know that for a person with such strength, if I hand over the ring, then I will definitely be sentenced to more than eight years."
If it’s not good, I’ll be finished. So, I made an agreement with him at that time, and I would tell him about the ring after I go to jail.”
"He had no choice but to promise me. Originally, I thought the matter would be over like this, but I didn't expect that you, Xiao Su, would show up."
After Zhao Qizheng finished speaking, he looked at Su Jiu. The young man in front of him was his son's classmate. He was from a Feng Shui family and was very powerful. Although his son had told him all this, but when he saw it with his own eyes,
Such a young man, a young man about the same age as his own son, came here alone, and with just a phone call, he was able to be released and reinstated as an official.
It can be seen how much energy this young man has behind him, and at the same time, how much shock he brings to himself.
It is a blessing to the Zhao family that his son can make such a brother.
"Uncle, do you know anything else about the information in the stone room at the end of the secret passage?" After hearing this, Su Jiu paused for a long time, seeming to be thinking. After a full moment, he came back to his senses and spoke slowly,
He asked Zhao Qizheng.
"No, although it has been three months since this happened, so many things have happened in these three months that I have no time to look for information. I only remember that at the beginning, the archaeological team leader saw that the stone chamber was empty.
Incomparably, I said something unintentionally."
Zhao Qizheng's expression was very serious. He recalled something and answered Su Jiu's inquiry seriously.
"What words?"
"He said: It shouldn't be? Why is it empty? It's obviously here, Master Sanjie can't lie to me!" Zhao Qizheng recalled and thought for a moment before speaking.
"Master of Three Rings!"
Su Jiu was startled when he heard this.
The whole person was suddenly excited. A thought flashed through his mind and then disappeared. He did not catch the thought that suddenly appeared.
This matter actually involves Master Three Rings?
Master Sanjie is the abbot of Xiangguo Temple. Su Jiu is very clear about the status of Xiangguo Temple, as it is the guardian of maintaining the national destiny of contemporary China.
Master Sanjie also knew about this.
When Mr. Li called him, he also told him that this matter involved someone in the capital and told him to be careful not to get involved too deeply.
"Master Sanjie, the capital city, the temple, the White Lotus Sect, the Khitan clan, Master Zhou, and the local forces in the south of the county..."
Su Jiu fell into deep thought, her brows furrowed between her eyes, and she murmured quietly.
"I got involved in this turmoil for no reason. This is..."
"Jiuding?"
Su Jiu's eyes flashed instantly, and the word Jiuding blurted out.
In an instant, his whole expression suddenly changed.
When all these things are connected, there is only one thing in common, and that is Jiuding! Only Jiuding can attract the attention of so many people, so many Feng Shui masters, and so many forces.
"I just don't know which of the nine tripods it is...?"
