One day, Jiang Chunian woke up to find herself transmigrated as the biological elder sister of a top-tier idol, who had been abducted for years and only recently found. She was also about to appear...
"This kid likes to take responsibility for himself."
Jiang Chunian was also sighing, and he roughly told the story of how he discovered that Zhao Tong of Taiyi Sect wanted to destroy the dragon vein, but was stopped by him, and the two died together.
She didn't say anything specific.
She believed in Xuanming's character and could see that Qinghui was an upright person, but human hearts are unpredictable and human nature cannot be tested.
Ascending to become an immortal and achieving immortality is too tempting.
She didn't dare to bet whether Qinghui would have any bad intentions after knowing it.
Even if Qinghui doesn't have any thoughts, who knows if the people around him will?
Taoist Qinghui also noticed that Jiang Chunian seemed to be hiding something, but since it was related to the dragon vein, there must be some secret involved. Jiang Chunian must have had some concerns about not revealing everything, so he pretended to be completely ignorant. His expression changed slightly and he said, "I didn't expect the truth to be like this. Fortunately, the senior stopped Zhao Tong in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."
Jiang Chunian understood what Qinghui meant.
When the country and nation suffered a disaster, the whole country was united and determined to drive out foreign humiliation, but in fact everyone had their own thoughts.
Someone like Zhao Tong is a member of the Kuomintang. If he succeeds in stealing the country's destiny for the Kuomintang, the consequences will be unimaginable.
But he was obviously worrying too much. Zhao Tong was not so noble. He didn't care about any party struggles or what the country would become. He only cared about himself.
As long as he could become an immortal and live forever, he could use the land of China as an altar and the entire nation as a sacrifice.
Jiang Chunian did not defend Tao Qian and let Taoist Qinghui misunderstand him.
Jiang Chunian nodded. "This matter is extremely secretive. I only learned of Zhao Tong's plan accidentally. I didn't have time to report it to Xuanming, so I chased him alone. However, I was a step too late, and the dragon vein was eventually destroyed."
Taoist Master Qinghui suddenly realized: "No wonder the country was so difficult in the early years. It turned out that the dragon vein was destroyed, affecting the country's destiny."
Jiang Chunian remained noncommittal: "But I went to the dragon vein again today, hoping to retrieve my magic weapon from back then, but I ran into people from the Taiyi Sect again."
"Chen Delong?" Taoist Qinghui's expression changed. "But he broke into the dragon vein?"
"That's right." Jiang Chunian nodded. "He and his disciple Zhou Jian entered the dragon vein together, intending to use it for evil, but I caught them red-handed. Later, Chen Delong, in order to protect himself, killed Zhou Jian and took his soul to feed the Ghost King, hoping to help the Ghost King capture me. Unfortunately, the Ghost King was eventually destroyed by me, and he himself accidentally fell and hit his head while fleeing in a panic, and died."
Taoist Qinghui snorted coldly: "Even if he can escape with his life, if he dares to destroy the dragon vein, the Ninth Division will never let him go."
Jiang Chunian looked at Taoist Qinghui and said, "But I heard that he is the vice chairman of the Xuanmen Association?"
"That's true." Taoist Qinghui explained to Jiang Chunian, "Back then, the Taiyi Sect, represented by Zhao Tong, supported the Kuomintang. Ultimately, the Kuomintang was defeated and had to retreat to Dayuan Province. Many Taiyi Sect members followed them, leaving only a few who didn't have time to retreat. They eventually went into hiding until the 1980s, when they began to slowly emerge.
Chen Delong is quite talented and a smart person. After he came to prominence, he has been very upright in his actions and never hides anything when discussing Taoism with fellow Taoists. Therefore, the disciples of Xuanmen have a very good impression of him. Later, Xuanmen established an association to specifically manage all matters of Xuanmen. In order to prevent the association from getting out of control and falling into the hands of evil practitioners, I was ordered to be the chairman, and then several vice-chairmen were selected to assist, and Chen Delong was one of them.
Over the years, I've observed that he's a decent person, so I haven't paid as much attention to him as before. Furthermore, the Ninth Department has been increasingly busy in recent years, and I've also had to train the next generation, so I stepped down as chairman. While I'm somewhat aware of the Association's affairs, I'm not as closely involved as before. So, I never expected Chen Delong to do something so quietly."
Jiang Chunian nodded. "I'm afraid he initially behaved well just to lull his colleagues into submission. Who knows how many people he's secretly colluded with to commit such treacherous acts?"
Jiang Chunian remembered the evil spirit he discovered in Kang'an Hospital when he was recording the second episode of "Brothers and Sisters", so he told Taoist Qinghui about it.
Taoist Qinghui's expression instantly grew serious upon hearing this. "I'll send someone to investigate Chen Delong's past to see if he's colluded with others to commit evil. If it's really as you say, I won't let anyone off the hook. I'll also have someone keep a close eye on Kang'an Hospital."
Jiang Chunian nodded. The Ninth Department had been established for many years and had connections everywhere. It would be much better to let the Ninth Department investigate than for her to do it herself.
After discussing his past and future, Taoist Qinghui asked, "Senior, are you willing to join the Ninth Department?"
Jiang Chunian was helpless: "I've already told you not to call me senior. You're making me sound old for no reason. You can call me by my name or little friend, whatever."
"How can this be? You made great contributions to the country and the nation in the past. You are also a close friend of Master. How can a junior be so rude?" Taoist Qinghui refused to agree. However, he also knew that Jiang Chunian did not like the title of senior, so he said, "Then I will call you Junior Uncle."
This title is much better than "Senior", so Jiang Chunian nodded: "That's fine."
"Then, Junior Master, would you like to join the Ninth Department? If you join the Ninth Department, you will be on the national payroll, with a fixed salary every month, as well as five social insurances and one housing fund. If you solve a case, you will also receive a bonus. You don't have to work on a regular basis, and you won't be asked to handle small cases. We will only ask you to handle difficult and major cases like the Lin family. As for participating in variety shows or filming commercials, as long as you abide by the law, we will not restrict you. Even if you need the cooperation of the local police, like in the case of Ning Yuchen, you only need to report the name of the Ninth Department and show your credentials, and they will cooperate with you. There are still many benefits."
Taoist Qinghui actively lobbied Jiang Chunian.
After all, Jiang Chunian is too strong.
He even thought that if Jiang Chunian was willing to join the Ninth Department, he would give her the position of Minister after he retired.
It can be said that the abacus was clacking loudly.
However, Jiang Chunian was indeed a little moved.
Having a formal organization would indeed be much more convenient.
But she didn't agree immediately.
"I'll think about it again." Jiang Chunian said.
"Okay. If you agree, please call me." Taoist Qinghui exchanged contact information with Jiang Chunian.
After talking about the two of them, the next thing to talk about is George.
Jiang Chunian briefly explained the situation and also told him how he would arrange for George at that time.
Taoist Qinghui looked at Jiang Chunian with admiration: "Master once said that Junior Master-Uncle is a chivalrous man with a kind heart. Seeing you today, it is indeed true."
Jiang Chunian said helplessly: "Okay, stop blowing my trumpet. My tail is about to go up to the sky."
"I'm just telling the truth." Taoist Qinghui said, "Let's proceed according to your plan. But we can't put all our hopes on Zhou Jiahong. We still have to investigate."
Jiang Chunian nodded.
Taoist Qinghui continued, "George is not tolerated by Heaven. When he dies, there will be a thunderbolt from the sky. You went to get the magic weapon to block the thunderbolt for him. It's fine if I didn't know about it now, but now that I know, I can't stay out of it. When the time comes, I will resist the thunderbolt with you and save George."
