Miao Xin looked at Chief Hou with a firm look, and directly changed the title of "general" to "chief".
"What do you think, Master?" Chief Hou asked Ciyi in a consulting tone.
"Although I have never met Donor Xiong, I have already seen that he has an upright character and is a person worthy of trust." Ciyi said, "Since the general is not outside this Dao, I guarantee that Donor Xiong will be fine here!"
The reason why Master Ciyi had the intention to keep Xiong Jiandong at this time was because she had strict requirements on her disciples and always acted openly and aboveboard. She really couldn't bear it in her heart, but Miao Xin hid it from her and was living with outsiders.
Secondly, because Xiong Jiandong has become a close friend of Yi'an Hall after all. As the owner of this room, she is very unwilling to lose Taoist hospitality etiquette for the sake of Chief Hou, a flying visitor.
"Then, Comrade Xiong, can you briefly introduce what you do?" Chief Hou asked Xiong Jiandong politely with a gentle face.
It can be seen that even if he intends to trust Master Ciyi and Miaoxin, he still retains a sense of caution.
"Report to the chief, me?"
Xiong Jiandong glanced at Miaoxin.
"Chief, he... was originally Director Qiao Zong of the Secret Service!"
Miao Xin took the place of Xiong Jiandong and decisively answered to Chief Hou.
Her relatively clear introduction to her identity caused a chain reaction. First of all, it inevitably surprised Chief Hou; and because she introduced the name of the Secret Service agency and its Director Qiao Zong, it also made people continue to guess about their identity.
The opaque Xiong Jiandong was even more surprised.
As for Master Ciyi, she naturally found it hard to imagine that Miao Xin could suddenly replace Xiong Jiandong and clearly explain his identity to Chief Hou. However, she did not yet grasp the nature of the Secret Service.
What kind of department it is, and of course I don’t know the origin of Director Qiao Zong.
But what Master Ciyi could clearly deduce was that the special-status Chief Hou before her was an important official in the military circles of the capital. He was responsible for guarding the border and safeguarding the country and the people. I hope he will come to the snow-capped mountains this time.
Wangmuchi Taoist Temple, in name, I came here to visit, but in fact, it was just to give myself a face, and to use the excuse to come to see Miaoxin.
In terms of Master Ciyi's thoughts during this period, ever since she discovered that Miaoxin was eyeing her disciple Sun Huichangyuan and intended to subvert her impression of the Shanngling Shen Sect, she had begun to figure out what this disciple's plan was.
She became more and more suspicious that Miao Xin returned to the Snow Mountain Queen Mother Pond Taoist Temple this time, covered with a sense of mystery. She was no longer the ignorant little girl she brought from Bagong Mountain.
Based on Miaoxin's recent display of vigilance towards Huichang Yuan and Shanngling Shenzong, Ciyi realized that the originally well-behaved Taoist Aunt Miaoxin in front of her had already shouldered some special mission. Even though she felt that her observation and analysis
, it’s still a bit unclear at the moment, but with her usual grasp of Miao Xin’s temperament, she can be considered to have a clear understanding of it.
It's just that Master Ciyi will accurately realize that Miaoxin and she are actually tacitly understanding each other, they are both waiting for an opportunity, and they have been able to hold back until now.
Today, Chief Hou happened to come prepared. Master Ciyi thought that it was time to tell the truth and get to the bottom of things.
What has always surprised Master Ciyi is that although Miaoxin is her close disciple, the closest and most proud of her, even if she is outstanding, she is just a young abbot in the Nuwa Empress Temple in Jiuwei Mountain. She should be
How could he have established a close communication channel with Chief Hou despite not being deeply involved in the world?
Although she was interrogated many times, Miao Xin had only one explanation for her master, which was that when she was studying at Baiyun Temple in the capital, she met Chief Hou by chance after being introduced by a famous Taoist priest in the Taoist temple.
Accidental acquaintance?
A few days ago, Mrs. Ciyi also asked Miao Xin where she met Donor Xiong and where he came from. Unexpectedly, she received such an "accidental acquaintance" answer, which made her helpless!
Fortunately, just as Mrs. Ciyi had planned, since Miao Xin had revealed the true identity of Donor Xiong to Commander Hou in front of her, the next step was to see how the general would react.
Sure enough, the shocked Chief Hou was doubtful and seemed to have been unable to return to the country for a long time.
"Reporting to the leader, my name is Xiong Jiandong, and I work in No. 19, Xishan, Beijing. A few days ago, I and several colleagues were ordered to come to southern Xinjiang to carry out a special operation. Due to changes, I accidentally fell behind. Fortunately, I was picked up by Taoist Master Miaoxin.
After being rescued from the desert, Master Ciyi took him in to the Queen Mother Pond Taoist Temple to temporarily recover from his injuries."
There is no doubt anymore! Chief Hou obviously found that Xiong Jiandong's answer was more professional than Miao Xin's, and he used only a few sentences to give a very concise and clear summary of what he had been through these days, which shows that
Think rigorously.
"You deserve to be called a hero. You are a true hero!"
With a strong sigh, Commander Hou nodded in praise, and once again took the initiative to reach out his hand and hold Xiong Jiandong tightly.
"Thank you for the encouragement, chief. But this hero, the name of a hero, is unworthy of it!"
With humility and solemnity, Xiong Jiandong returned a military salute to Commander Hou.
Chief Hou was obviously familiar with the names Xiong Jiandong and Tizigul.
Because just a few days ago, Jiang Dongyu, who was responsible for directly commanding a special operation on the southern border of Xinjiang, issued a so-called victory report to relevant departments, including the Border Police Joint Service Headquarters, in the name of the National Security Intelligence Bureau overnight.
In this victory report, it was announced that the violent terrorists entrenched in the Bald Eagle Ridge on the southern border of Xinjiang had been completely eliminated, and twelve captives had been successfully rescued. The price paid was only the sacrifice of two people.
The soldiers are Xiong Jiandong, a member of the special operations team, and Tizigul, a scout.
Of course, Chief Hou is very familiar with Jiang Dongyu. Because it was with his direct recommendation that Jiang Dongyu sat in the high position of deputy director of the Special Intelligence Bureau.
"It turns out that Donor Xiong is not only well-versed in history and has a quick mind, but also has a military background like the general. He is truly a rare scholar and a martial artist!" Ciyi couldn't help but interject at this time, sincerely praising Xiong Jiandong, "It's just that
I'm afraid the Taoist temple has a rough diet, so I've been treating Donor Xiong a little too slowly these days!"
"I owe you so much love and kindness from my master, and I can't thank my master enough!" Xiong Jiandong said in fear, "I have a lot of responsibility. I have never understood everything truthfully before, and I beg my master for forgiveness!"
"Master has always been loyal to Donor Xiong. I thought you were still injured, so I took the thousand-year-old snow lotus that I had treasured for many years and stewed it for nourishment. There would be no blame." Miao Xin looked at Xiong Jiandong with a smile, and there was something in her words.
"But don't forget what you said yesterday. After explaining the important things in your heart to my master, you will leave the Snow Mountain Queen Mother Pond in the next few days. Kun Dao thought that it was inevitable that the master would be reluctant to leave and would stay. I feel so sad in my stomach!"
Xiong Jiandong gave Miao Xin a knowing smile, which meant that he understood what she meant.
"Miao Xin's words are serious. I wonder when Donor Xiong plans to come down from the mountain, and what important things he has to tell me?" Ciyi asked.
"Going back to Master, Jingzhao originally planned to come and say goodbye yesterday afternoon." Xiong Jiandong said, "Just because there is still something unfinished, I have been bored in my heart for the past two days. I don't know whether I should report the truth to Master, so I hesitated. Decision."
"Donor Xiong, just tell me." Ciyi said.
"I don't know if Master Tai still remembers that early that morning in this nunnery, you were very angry and had a verbal quarrel with Taoist Master Miaoxin for the sake of Shanngling Shenzong and Master Hui." Xiong Jiandong Road.
Ciyi immediately frowned.
Because she originally expected that one of them, Chief Hou or Miao Xin, would talk to her about a series of topics related to her disciple Sun Huichang Yuan today, but she did not expect that it would be Xiong Jiandong who brought it up first.
"I wonder if Master has seen this thing before?" Xiong Jiandong took out the cigarette holder made of jade and gold hoop from his arms, and presented it to Ciyi with both hands, "This thing was given to me by Sect Leader Hui yesterday."
Ciyi took it, held it to her nose, smelled it, and gave it back to Xiong Jiandong.
"It turns out that Xingzhi can't abide by the rules. He has become the head of the Shanngling Shen Sect and smokes cigarettes like a common man." She said calmly, "Next time I see him, I need to give him a strict lecture. .”
"Not only that, Sect Master Hui also sent a man named Turhuan to come here secretly last night and handed me a fur vest." Xiong Jiandong said, "Sect Master Hui ordered that this fur vest is very valuable. It’s confidential, so I have kept it in the room and haven’t bothered to take it out yet.”
"What kind of fur vest can actually hide secrets?"
Miaoxin was also surprised because Xiong Jiandong did not have time to inform her in detail about Turhuan and the fur vest he had sent.
"Because inside the fur vest, there is a road map drawn from southern Xinjiang to the Middle East to communicate with the leader of the front brigade, Hurachid." Xiong Jiandong said, "That's why Sect Master Hui made the request, and it must be done properly. Keep it safe and don’t let it fall into the hands of others.”
After hearing the words "Front Brigade" and "Huracide", Mrs. Ciyi couldn't help but exchange a glance with Commander Hou, and her face immediately darkened.
More than two years ago, a high-level internal meeting attended by Chief Hou and Master Ciyi was held in Urumqi. In view of the fact that southern Xinjiang has become the hardest hit area by violent terrorist forces, and there have been many regional violent terrorist riots. Incidents and harmful activities, important representatives from all walks of life, ethnic groups and religions are specially notified of the anti-terrorism situation.
For this internal high-level meeting, Master Ciyi, as a highly respected religious representative and holding many nominally important positions in the National Taoist Association, was naturally specially invited.
After receiving the notice of the meeting, Master Ciyi came as scheduled regardless of her 100-year-old age. This was also the only time that she made an exception and left the Snow Mountain Queen Mother Pond Taoist Temple after many years of self-cultivation.
