Chapter 1342 Clues to the Ancient Ruins

When Tang Ning came to the living room without rushing, she saw Ding Jianyang sitting on the left side of the room. After being left out for half a day, he was still smiling, as if he was the master.

"Senior Tang, please forgive me for disturbing you." Seeing Tang Ning enter, Ding Jianyang stood up with a smile and said, but there was an indescribable sense of humor.

Tangning glanced at him, and felt that this person was indescribably disgusting. The smile on the corner of his mouth seemed to be mocking. It had been many years since he had seen him. Ding Jianyang had already advanced to the middle stage of transformation, and his cultivation was not slow.

Tangning couldn't help but think of the black shadow that appeared in his body when he robbed the merchant ship together. Although he didn't know what it was, it was inseparable from the growth of his cultivation.

"Don't say polite words, if you have anything to say, just speak directly!" Tangning took a seat at the head of the table, and said in a blunt tone.

"Senior Tang broke through refining the void so quickly, it's really unexpected. The Golden Phoenix Jade Dew must have played a lot!" Ding Jianyang still had a faint smile on his face.

"Stop talking nonsense. If you have nothing else to do, please go ahead! I don't have time to entertain you."

"It's really chilling to treat an old friend like this. Since Senior Tang ordered it, I'll tell you the truth straight to the point. I have a business and I want to cooperate with you."

Tangning remained expressionless, "Cooperate? You want me to kill you again? Is this time to seize the treasure from the Chamber of Commerce or kill your enemy?"

"Don't say that! Isn't it very pleasant for us to cooperate every time? From treasure hunting in Qinghai to robbing merchant ships, you get no less benefits than me every time. Including the time of killing Ma Shouyang, I also paid you corresponding rewards , isn't it?"

Tangning didn't answer, but just looked at him expressionlessly.

The two looked at each other, and Ding Jianyang smiled: "Okay! You guessed it right, I want you to cooperate this time because I want you to kill someone for me."

"I'm not interested, please hire someone else!" Tangning refused after hearing this.

"You will be interested, I promise." As soon as he finished speaking, Ding Jianyang answered immediately: "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, don't you want to hear it?"

"A once-in-a-lifetime chance?"

"I know the location of an ancient relic, which not only contains many treasures left by the top monks in ancient times, but also can be confirmed as the place where a Mahayana monk died. If we cooperate, I can take you into that space. As long as one or two treasures are found, it will be of great benefit."

Tangning's face remained unchanged, but she was rather surprised.

It is no secret that the ancient relics, he once got the little white snake under the ancient relics buried in Xingang.If there are really clues to the ancient ruins, it's okay to take a little risk.

"How did you know such a secret thing?"

"Don't worry about it, anyway, everything I said is true."

"It's such a good thing, why did you find me?"

"I need to get something to enter the ancient ruins, and I can't get that thing with my own strength, so I can only ask you to cooperate."

"What is it?"

"A key to access."

"The person you want me to kill is the holder of that key?"

"Yes, as long as you take the key, we can enter the inner room."

Tangning didn't answer, thoughts flashed through her mind.

Regarding Ding Jianyang's words, he was always skeptical. Although the two had cooperated several times, he knew that this person was always ambitious, selfish and unscrupulous. He had to think clearly whether this was a trap.

With his current cultivation and strength, he is not too worried about Ding Jianyang's ambush design. The only thing to worry about is whether this is Ding Jianyang's trick to kill with a knife, and wants to use him to get rid of the enemy.

There was a brief silence in the room, and the atmosphere was a little delicate. Ding Jianyang was still smiling and looked very calm.

"Can I suspect that you made up a story and wanted to use me to kill your enemy?" Tangning said slowly after a while.

Ding Jianyang smiled slightly: "Of course you have reason to doubt, but if you think about it carefully, you should understand that I don't need to do that. If I need to use your hands to kill people, I will never use this method. I asked you to assassinate Ma Shouyang back then. Presumably you will never forget that although some unpleasant things happened, you are fully aware of the whole thing from beginning to end. I didn't even hide such an important matter that is related to life and death, is there any need for other things?"

"You might as well look back. Since our cooperation, what have I deliberately concealed? Our cooperation for so many years has been very smooth, and there will be opportunities to cooperate in the future. I am not such a short-sighted person. To me, you are a strong What good does it do me to have powerful foreign aid to entrap you?"

Tang Ning rested her chin on her hand and stared at him, "Why don't you directly cooperate with the person who has the key, instead asking me to snatch it. Wouldn't it be superfluous?"

"Simple, because he won't cooperate with me, so I need you."

"Is he your enemy?"

"No."

"Have you spoken to him?"

"No."

"Then how do you know he won't cooperate with you?"

"He knows the way to enter, and he has the key. Does he still need to cooperate with me?"

"Why should I trust you?"

"It's up to you whether you believe it or not. I can only guarantee that everything I say is true."

"If you want me to cooperate, unless you tell me the whole story."

"What else do you want to know?"

"How did you know about this matter? Don't tell me that it was provided by the internal information of Nether Sea. If you were able to know such confidential information in your capacity, it must have been spread all over the world."

"I was told."

"who is it?"

"I can't tell you, this is an agreement between me and him."

"If I get the key, will this person follow us in and take out the ancient ruins?"

"No, he's dead."

"I didn't realize that you would keep your promise to a dead man."

Ding Jianyang ignored the sarcasm in his tone, and said lightly: "Everyone has their own secrets. If I ask you, how can you, a person with low-level spiritual root aptitude, have been so successful since joining Taixuanzong? In a short period of time, your cultivation will reach the level of refining the void, and you won't tell the whole story!"

Tang Ning remained calm, but she was basically certain that the news had some kind of inseparable connection with the shadow in his body.

"Who is it that you want me to kill?"

"So, you have agreed to cooperate."

"I always have to know who the other party is before I think about it."

"He is a child of a family of practitioners in Pingyuan County. Before you agree to cooperate, I can only tell you so much."

"What is this person's cultivation?"

"Don't worry, it's definitely within your ability. If it's a fit monk, I won't look for you either."

"According to you, this person not only holds the key to enter the ancient ruins, but also knows the method, why not go by himself?"

"Because it's not time yet?"

"time?"

"This will be kept secret for the time being, until you get the key." Ding Jianyang didn't wait for him to continue to ask, got up and said: "I have other things, you need some time to think about it, let's call it a day! I'll come back to you in a few days, and I hope you can think it through."

Tangning watched him leave the room and his figure disappeared from sight, she couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

Although he didn't trust Ding Jianyang, he had to admit that what he said made sense. At least at this time, he had no reason to harm him, which was of no benefit to him.

Assuming the secret of the ancient ruins is true, it is indeed a golden opportunity to enter the inner room.

After a while, he recovered from his contemplation, got up and went back to the main room, before he could enter, the disciples from the residence hurried over, bowed and saluted, "Master Uncle, there is a Shaohui outside. The monk asked to see him, and the guard came to ask for instructions, I wonder if you know each other?"

Hearing this, Tangning immediately thought of Jin Leizhu's business, "Where is he now?"

"This person is not a monk from the coalition army, and the Palace of Guards temporarily detained him."

"Go and get him! Forget it, I'll go there myself." Tangning turned around and left the cave. A cultivator was waiting outside. After explaining the situation to him, the two of them got excited and arrived in no time. Guard Hall.

"Senior Tang."

"Senior Tang."

"Greetings to Master Tang's uncle."

Seeing him coming, everyone inside stood up and saluted.

"A monk from Ding Jianyang came in and out of the headquarters just now, and showed me his records."

"Yes." One person went away in response.

"You're here, come with me!" Tangning said to Shao Hui who was standing beside her.

"This junior is here under the order of Venerable Master Zhuo Jing, and I invite senior to go to Lishi Inn to have a talk."

"Oh? Fellow Daoist Feng is also in this city?"

"Yes."

"Master Tang, this is the entry and exit information registered by Senior Ding, please have a look." A disciple of the guard hall handed him a stack of files, and saw the clear record of Ding Jianyang's entry and exit time and position on the top line, and his current status His job is to be the supervisor of the Fifth Wing of the Third Column of the Ninth Army.

Tangning glanced at it, handed the file to the disciple, and led Shao Hui out of the room.
