Chapter 64 The Evil Daughter Who Was Driven Away
Old Xing narrowed his eyes slightly, lost in deep recollection, and slowly said, "My uncle has been a scout all his life! He has superb reconnaissance skills, and he also has an invisibility jade pendant given to him by the Taoist priest. This so-called invisibility is not the kind that makes people disappear in the true sense, but a kind of invisibility spell that can avoid detection and make it difficult for Taoist priests to detect his presence. My uncle sneaked into the bustling and noisy Sijiu City alone.
After arriving in Sijiu City, Dabo fully utilized his extensive network of contacts to investigate this Tianzun. Ten years ago, Tianzun's age was registered with the Special Office as 58. The Special Office was only officially established in 1998. Further investigation into Tianzun's past revealed that he had practiced at a Taoist temple in a small village in Yuncheng. Dabo immediately headed to that village to conduct an in-depth investigation.
When the uncle found the Taoist temple, he asked the priests about the Tianzun. They told him that Tianzun had been cultivating there since childhood, a practice that had lasted thirty years. After a careful investigation, the uncle was surprised to find no trace of Tianzun in the temple. A trace of doubt arose in the uncle's mind.
The uncle, unwilling to give up, visited every household in the village one by one, hoping to get more information about Tianzun from the villagers.
The result was unexpected, except for the village chief and the village secretary, no other villagers had ever heard of Tianzun!
My uncle's comrade-in-arms worked in customs. In 1990, a Japanese passenger named Ichiro Ki had an entry record, but no record of his whereabouts. It has been 30 years since then.
The most important thing is that the Taoist priest has been looking for someone from the Zhang family, a descendant of the ancestor Zhang Daoling. His magic and that of the Zhang family have the same origins."
After hearing this, Zhang Xiaojia felt that he didn’t know how he was going to get through the rest of his life.
Just a preliminary investigation revealed such a shocking truth - this Tianzun was inextricably linked to his family! Moreover, he might even be a member of the Zhang family from 200 years ago!
Was it a good thing between the Zhang family’s original members and the Zhang family’s branch members 200 years ago?
During the reign of the Emperor, Zhang Tianshi of the Zhang family held supreme status in Taoism, his prestige so high that he could command all Daoists under heaven. The Zhang family was immensely powerful and wealthy. Regardless of dynasty, prominent members of the family were often appointed as Imperial Masters, earning them immense respect.
At that time, before the 31st year of Emperor Qianlong's reign, Zhang Tianshi was a first-rank official.
In the 31st year of Emperor Qianlong's reign in the Qing Dynasty, a Left Censor-in-Chief surnamed Mei submitted a memorial to Emperor Qianlong requesting that Zhang Tianshi's rank and title be demoted. Emperor Qianlong ordered the cabinet and the Ministry of Personnel to discuss how to proceed. The ministers had consistently argued that Zhang Tianshi's rank should be demoted from first to fifth rank. Emperor Qianlong felt this was inappropriate and, in a special act of mercy, reduced Zhang Tianshi's rank from first to third rank, though it remained hereditary and would remain so forever.
Zhang Tianshi still received a salary from the court and held a third-rank official position.
If she thought about the Zhang family at that time, she would know that there must be many playboys in the family, and they were rich and powerful. No matter which dynasty, the Zhang family had always been a family of first-rank officials, and they often appointed people as national masters. How could they be bad?
Even at the worst times, the Zhang family still held a third-rank title, and this title was hereditary, meaning that no matter how time passed, it would remain unchanged forever.
In a large family, it is not uncommon for the main family to bully and exploit the branch family. It is human nature.
To expect the entire family to remain united and friendly is simply a fantasy. Especially when it comes to the struggle for inheritance rights, the intensity is beyond imagination, and it may even be a fight to the death.
The current social environment is completely different from the ancient world. Official positions and titles no longer exist, so no one wants to take on the role of Heavenly Master. There's no power, no money to be made, and the tasks are complicated and tedious, while the responsibilities are immense. Such a thankless job is naturally unpopular!
Zhang Xiaojia frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "I think we should go look for your uncle. Maybe he has some important information that he hasn't given you yet!"
After hearing this, Old Xing nodded slightly and said in agreement: "Well, okay, I'll contact uncle right away."
Zhang Xiaojia quickly shook his head and said, "Don't bother! I can tell where your uncle is from your face, so there's no need to contact him. And as you said before, the Heavenly Venerable is extremely powerful. If he were to contact your uncle through you, the Heavenly Venerable would probably notice and put him in danger!"
When Old Xing heard this, his heart tightened and a look of horror instantly appeared on his face.
Zhang Xiaojia suddenly received a text message from her eldest brother. When she read the message, she was stunned, as if struck by lightning. It clearly stated, "Water Man was born in 1650." This meant a full 380 years had passed!
This shocking news shocked Zhang Xiaojia so much that he could hardly breathe.
After a brief moment of shock, the three quickly decided to act separately and agreed to meet again in ten days to exchange the information they had obtained.
Zhang Xiaojia had five disadvantages and three shortcomings in his life, so Xu Yizhi placed an order to rent a large truck without saying a word.
After a bumpy ride, Zhang Xiaojia finally arrived in Haicheng. It was already late at night, and everything was quiet. It was already the middle of the night.
Fortunately, due to the city regulations that large trucks are not allowed to enter the city, they had to park in the suburbs. As usual, she used magic to shrink and enlarge the villa on the car, and then she couldn't wait to go into the house to rest.
Zhang Xiaojia was exhausted both physically and mentally and had no time to care about other things. He just wanted to fall asleep as soon as possible and forget all his worries for a while.
She tossed and turned, unable to sleep, with questions flooding into her mind one after another.
①Is Tianzun a member of the Zhang family?
② Tianzun is 380 years old?
③ Did Tianzun betray his country and become a Japanese devil to invade our country?
④What kind of deal was reached between Zhang San’s people and Tianzun?
How is it possible that Tianzun is already 380 years old? How did he manage to live so long? Did he really use some kind of evil magic? He deserves to be killed!
Tianzun relied on the Japanese invaders and became a despised traitor and lackey. Could this be true? If so, his crimes are unforgivable and he deserves death!!!
A series of questions made Zhang Xiaojia increasingly restless. She tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep for a long time...
Zhang Xiaojia woke up at daybreak, washed up and had breakfast. Then she called out to He Fei, and He Fei appeared beside her.
Zhang Xiaojia put away the villa, opened her mobile phone, booked a taxi online, and chose family payment. This feature was really good, she would never be without money to spend.
I rushed to Lao Xing's uncle's house without stopping. As soon as I entered the house, I heard shocking news: Lao Xing's uncle had suddenly suffered a stroke last night and was in a coma! He was still in the hospital.
When they hurried to the hospital, Zhang Xiaojia saw the old granddaughter of Mrs. Xing standing beside them with an anxious look on her face.
She secretly felt thankful that Father Tiandao had given her the unique talent of face reading, otherwise she really didn't know how to find the location of those crucial information.
Based on the information obtained from Lao Xing's face, Zhang Xiaojia and He Fei came to the underground carport of the community. However, the scene before her made her gasp. There was some kind of formation arranged here, and the eerie and strange atmosphere made people shudder.
Judging from the looks of it, the other party was obviously well prepared and his intention was to take her life!
She quickly looked around and pulled a handful of pebbles from her waist pouch. She picked up a few and threw them at the formation. With a crackling sound, the previously tight formation was instantly shattered. Then, she repeated the same trick, using the pebbles in her hand to create a simple defensive formation.
Zhang Xiaojia had just finished setting up the formation when He Fei realized something was wrong. He anxiously pushed Zhang Xiaojia into the carport, signaling her to get the information while he held off.
After saying that, He Fei flashed and rushed towards the mysterious group of people like a tiger descending from the mountain. Relying on his own powerful martial arts value and superb fighting skills, He Fei rushed left and right, punching and kicking, and in the blink of an eye, he beat this group of people with ulterior motives to a pulp.
Zhang Xiaojia found the information, but before he had time to look at it carefully, He Fei beside him grabbed his arm and quickly left the place.
They ran all the way, not knowing how long they had been running, and finally arrived at the largest subway station in Haicheng City.
He Fei, who had been following Zhang Xiaojia closely, disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye!
Zhang Xiaojia could only turn her attention back to the important document in her hand. She took a deep breath, calmed her flustered emotions, and then ran towards the Red Star Villa District without hesitation.
When she arrived at her destination breathlessly, she immediately saw the villa at No. 251, standing alone in the easternmost corner.
Zhang Xiaojia took a breath, took out the villa and began to transform and expand, and finally turned it into a miniature building that was no different from a real villa and landed steadily on the ground.
Zhang Xiaojia walked quickly into the "mini" villa and couldn't wait to open the document he had been holding in his hand.
When she flipped open the first page of the information, she only glanced at the contents recorded there. Zhang Xiaojia stood there in shock as if struck by lightning, and couldn't help but gasp...
