17 years ago!
Hearing this special time, Tianyang's spirit suddenly tensed up. He became focused unconsciously, not wanting to miss any details.
He Wenchi did not notice the subtle changes in the young man behind him. He walked slowly with a deep look in his eyes, as if he was prying open his memories, releasing some past events that had been buried in his heart for a long time.
"At that time, I was a teacher who had just joined the church. Yes, I was not even a priest, but just a low-level person serving the church. But I had an excellent and highly respected teacher."
"Well, that's a bit off topic."
"At that time, the rector of our church was not Fu Junyi, but Zuo Mohan."
I know this.
Tian Yang resisted the urge to ask He Wen Chi to speed up his story. He didn't want the priest to see his inner thoughts, and he didn't want He Wen Chi to connect him with Su Lie and what happened 17 years ago.
He Wenchi paused for a moment, as if he was organizing his words, before continuing.
"At that time, Priest Zuo had a good friend. Although the friend was relatively young, he unexpectedly got along very well with Priest Zuo. I saw him once when I was in church."
"That man was very impressive. He looked like a flamboyant, playboy. But his eyes were very deep, as if he could see through all the secrets."
"Every time he came to see Patriarch Zuo, he would ask questions that seemed very profound to me at the time. Some of them involved concepts, beliefs and other aspects."
“Imperial Minister Zuo said that although he was not one of our followers, this man had a deeper faith.”
Although He Wenchi did not directly say the man's name, Tianyang knew that he was talking about Su Lie.
This is a very strong intuition, and this intuition was confirmed by He Wenchi's words later.
"One night."
"I remember it was already very late and the church had long been closed, but someone knocked on the door. It was very loud and urgent. Every knock was like a knock on my heart."
"I happened to be on duty that day, so I opened the door and it turned out to be the friend of Principal Zuo. He came to see the Principal to ask him some questions."
"Although this is not new, he has never visited me so late at night. And I smelled a strong smell of alcohol on him. This person has never behaved like this before."
"I could sense that he was very troubled and even full of doubts. Priest Zuo received him and they chatted in the room for almost the entire night."
"He seemed to be in some trouble, and Priest Zuo not only gave advice but also promised to help."
Tianyang's breathing quietly became heavy. At this time, Su Lie should have discovered the "Disaster Compass". He himself was in a dilemma between destroying the compass and handing it over to the fortress.
So, Su Lie finally decided to destroy the compass because of Zuo Mohan’s suggestion
He Wenchi stopped, held onto a fence, and frowned slightly.
"Not long after this happened, something happened. I heard that the man secretly entered the adversary world. Later, the cardinals of our church also arrived and suddenly proposed that the 'Black King' was brewing in the adversary world No. 127."
"I believe you should have heard about this."
Tianyang nodded: "I have heard of it, but I don't know much."
He Wenchi shook his head: "This is normal, because all the records have either been destroyed or classified as top secret."
"In the Black King's Affairs
Many people died in the incident. In addition to the church, there were also fortresses. "
"After this incident, the following year, Rector Zuo submitted his application for retirement and stepped down from his position as rector."
"It wasn't until three years later that he told me how much guilt he felt deep down in his heart."
"It turns out that his friend found a route map. That route map may point to a 'grave'."
He Wenchi turned his head and looked at Tianyang: "Do you know 'grave'?"
Tianyang had a confused expression, as if he had forgotten to react for a moment because he had touched upon a blind spot in his knowledge.
He Wenchi did not show any surprise, but smiled and said, "It's normal not to know. This information is not within your current authority and cannot be mastered."
"You just need to know that the 'tomb' is very dangerous. If it is opened, it will cause great turmoil inside and outside the door."
"In addition, there are similar things in some parts of the reverse world. However, our church is chasing the 'grave' because there may be important things in it that the church wants to collect."
Dusk Slate
This is probably what the church is collecting. Tianyang did not reveal his thoughts, but just made an expression of listening attentively.
He Wenchi continued, "Under his advice, the friend of Priest Zuo at the time was inclined to destroy the map. Priest Zuo also secretly contacted some of his friends outside the fortress, hoping that they would come over to help."
"But at this time, the Cardinals received the news and learned about the 'grave' and the information about Priest Zuo's friend. This is exactly what Priest Zuo wanted to avoid."
Tian Yang couldn't help but ask: "Why? Since the church is looking for the tomb, why didn't Patriarch Zuo report it directly to the Cardinals?"
He Wenchi sighed and said, "Because Patriarch Zuo cares about his friend very much, and more importantly, Patriarch Zuo knows what will happen if this matter is reported."
"Unfortunately, what he didn't want to happen still happened."
"The church came and intervened forcefully, using the 'Black King' as an excuse to exclude the fortress and hunt down the friend of Patriarch Zuo."
"Patriarch Zuo chose to retire because of guilt. Moreover, he also learned that the reason why the church knew about this was because someone in this fortress informed the Cardinal Council!"
Tianyang's whole body trembled, and he almost couldn't control his anger and murderous intent.
Snitch!
This was obviously intended to draw the church's intervention and deal with Su Lie.
Who could it be
Dong Fang
Or other high-level fortresses
After all, there probably aren't many people who know about this.
Could it be Yuan Shu? But he should know that once the church intervened, with the strength of Skyfort at that time, it would definitely be excluded and left aside by the church.
He Wenchi held the fence with his hands, unconsciously exerting force: "It's a pity that after so many years, we still don't know who the person who informed the church was."
"But it is not difficult to see from this incident that there are people in the fortress, in their upper echelons, who want to open the tomb. Therefore, neither the Cardinals nor our diocese can trust the fortress."
"And the murder of Patriarch Zuo is very likely related to the tomb, and it is very likely related to what happened back then, so we try our best not to let the fortress interfere."
It took Tianyang several breaths to digest the information, and then he had some questions.
He Wenchi said that he was just a
Teacher, why did Zuo Mohan reveal so much information to him
"Are you wondering why Master Zuo would reveal so much to a small teacher like me?"
He Wenchi seemed to have guessed Tianyang's thoughts and said it in advance: "That's because, in addition to being a teacher, I am also a student of Director Zuo."
"Yes, at that time I was studying continental history, church doctrine, and many other things with him."
"Also, I told you this news because the teacher asked you to go see him and because the teacher trusts you."
"Perhaps this can help you eliminate some of your doubts. After all, you are also a Night Walker. I know that you are caught in the middle and it would be difficult for you to make choices on certain issues."
Tianyang was slightly startled, thinking that He Wenchi revealed this information to him based on this consideration.
He didn't know that this information helped him answer many questions.
Questions about Su Lie.
Now he knew that the reason Zuo Mohan was murdered was most likely because the person who informed on the matter was worried that the old pastor would reveal the information to him.
In other words, the "employer" was most likely the informer back then!
He is the direct culprit that led to Su Lie’s disappearance!
After being silent for a long time, this matter finally took a big step forward.
employer!
Be sure to find that employer!
Carefully putting this thought away, Tian Yang nodded and said, "Thank you for revealing this information to me, thank you for trusting me so much. Don't worry, priest, I know how to make choices in the future."
He Wenchi laughed: "That's great."
Leave the church.
Tianyang received a text message from Xun. The girl took the initiative to meet him and said that she had something important to tell him.
While digesting the news brought by He Wenchi, Tianyang drove the blue light magnetic energy vehicle to the medical center.
When they arrived at the medical center, Tianyang was waiting in the car before the end of get off work.
While waiting, he was naturally thinking about the events of 17 years ago. Combining the clues he had discovered before, he was able to sort out a rough outline.
At the beginning, it was because Fortress discovered a report published by a professor named Fan Wenzhe, who was a resident of the Reverse World at that time.
Report on the Devil's Grave.
This report aroused the interest of Fortress, and they asked Su Lie and other people who were trying to break the formation to search for it. Finally, Su Lie and his people found the Compass of Disaster in the Beidou base.
Since Su Lie had learned the language of the opposite world, he understood the records on the back of the compass and knew the horror of the tomb.
He was confused about this and asked Zuo Mohan for advice, and finally decided to destroy it.
However, due to someone's informant, the church intervened forcefully, forcing Su Lie to flee into the world of rebellion with the compass.
This resulted in his mother, Nan Fei, having to live in the downtown area for seventeen years!
Judging from the situation at the time, there must not be many people who knew about Su Lie and Luo Pan.
I don't know who the informer is.
Boom boom boom.
Someone was knocking on the car window, and Tianyang came to his senses and found Xun standing outside the car.
He quickly opened the door.
Xun looked at him with some concern: "What happened? Just now, your expression... looked very troubled and scary."
