Chapter 117: Accountability

Xiao Ducheng looked at the figures sitting in the wing room with trepidation.

He listened very carefully to every word they talked about and everything they said, lest he miss half a word and miss a great opportunity.

After all, the group of people in front of him was an existence that Xiao Du couldn't imagine.

Even the young son of the main family, whom he had to serve carefully on weekdays, had to be timid in front of this group of people, and he was not even qualified to sit with them, so he could only stand aside and listen.

"That pariah's not dead, is he? bring him and I'll ask for myself. At this time, a young man in brocade clothes suddenly spoke.

It was a boy who looked no more than fifteen or sixteen years old, but Xiao Du didn't dare to despise him at all because of the other party's age.

"Quick! After hearing the young man's words, he hurriedly spoke outside the house, lest he be a little slower in his hands and feet, which would displease these big people and delay the important affairs of the young master of the main family.

After listening to Xiao Du's shout, the door was pushed open, and then the two of them walked in, dragging a paralyzed figure from the ground to the center of the few people sitting in the door.

It was a young man who had fallen into a coma, his clothes were ragged, and the flesh that leaked out was either bruised and swollen, or there were wounds that had not yet fully healed, and whether they were the former or the latter, these injuries were deliberately controlled in a way that did not hurt the vital point. The degree of life-threatening, but these injuries are densely distributed all over this person's body, so that at this moment, there is almost no intact skin on his body, this appearance, it is really difficult to say, there is still a little bit of qi for him is lucky or unlucky.

"Well, why is it so disgusting?!" a young girl sitting next to the young man frowned when she caught a glimpse of the man's appearance, let out an exclamation of surprise from her mouth, and said with a look of disgust.

This girl's age is a few points younger than the young man who just spoke, but Xiao Du understands that this girl's status is only higher than that of the young man surnamed Song- This girl was born extremely beautiful and lovely, Xiao Du noticed the existence of this girl since he walked into the door, although he has been standing at the door to serve, but his eyes can't help but secretly look at the girl from time to time, because of this, he also found that the young man surnamed Song was quite proud of his words, even the young son of the main family, Xiao Meng, he did not put it in his eyes, and there was a lot of ridicule between his words, but when facing this girl, he was extremely restrained, and even vaguely flattered.

It is true that when the girl said this, Xiao Du hurriedly tore off a curtain from the window on the side, walked to the room in three steps and two steps, and put the curtain on the unconscious man's body.

"The little ones are used to being rude, and they have collided with the girl, and I ask the girl and the adults to forgive me. Immediately, Xiao Du whispered again, his attitude and tone were extremely humble.

Seeing this, the girl who was still angry with this blood-covered person was stunned for a moment, then smiled at Xiao Du and said softly: "Brother Xiao, your subordinate is considerate. ”

Xiao Meng, who was standing behind the old man Wei Xuan of the Purple Cloud Palace, heard this, laughed dryly, and was about to say something, but Xiao Du preemptively said: "It's all the young master who taught us well, and he gave us instructions before he came, and he must serve you well." It's just that the little ones are all martial artists, and they are used to seeing these dead and alive people on weekdays, so they didn't realize that there was anything, so they brought this guy up, which was definitely not the original intention of my young master. Then I will have him passed out with a curtain, and when he has been cleaned, I will bring it to you, that this wicked man may be put on trial. ”

Xiao Du's words were extremely ingenious, that is, he explained this mistake impermeably, and gave the credit for his timely reaction to the young master of the main family, so that he was not only exempted from punishment, but also won the favor of the main family, and said that he was lucky, and he could also get the favor of these big people, and they gave some opportunities at will, which was a great creation for him.

"Forget it, just ask him like this, and find a way to wake him up. At this time, the girl smiled sweetly at Xiao Du, and said so in her mouth.

The girl is not very old, and her body bones have not yet grown, but on her childish face, a pair of eyes seem to be able to speak, and she is very seductive, even if she is just glanced at by these eyes with a smile, Xiao Du suddenly felt that her heart was beating faster, and she couldn't help but think about it.

But he is also a tooth general in the Zixiao Army, and he still has some determination, he hurriedly bit the tip of his tongue to dispel the unrealistic and charming thoughts in his heart, and then hurriedly lowered his head and replied: "Yes." Then he bowed down and began to use the methods he did best to torture prisoners of war against the faint fellow.

This is a necessary skill for the general of the Zixiao Army, and the intelligence of the two armies against the enemy is a particularly important thing. Before the battle between the two armies, they will definitely send countless scouts to roam around the battlefield to spy on each other's intelligence, and in the same way to prevent the leakage of information on their own side, both sides will also send soldiers to guard to the death, sometimes a little luckier, not to mention that they can catch one or two scout discs, at this time, the ability to interrogate and torture the enemy is particularly important.

Xiao Du, who knew this well, stretched out his hand and held the hand of the man who fell to the ground, and a spiritual power was stimulated by him at that time and poured into the person's body.

The man was wrapped under the curtain, and his body, which still did not know life and death, trembled violently with the influx of spiritual power, and his mouth also let out a muffled snort, and his head under the curtain slowly raised, looking at the people in the room with some blankness.

After a brief period of confusion, Hu Le quickly remembered his situation.

"You ...... What are you going to do?" he recognized the familiar faces of the few people presentβ€”the elder of the Purple Cloud Palace who had promised to let him into his door, the prince of the Tianque Realm who he accidentally collided with, and the young prince of the Xiao family. It's just that the more he recognizes these high-ranking people on weekdays, the more Hu Le's heart wonders why they want to kidnap him? He asked, his tone inevitably filled with panic. He also tried to stand up, but as soon as he used some strength, there was a sharp pain all over his body, and Hu Le had to give up such thoughts for the time being.

"What are you doing?!" At this time, that Song Douyuan slapped the desk beside him violently, and said angrily: "Say, did you steal the cultivation method of my Heavenly Que Realm Great Sin Realm that day!?"

Before he fell into a coma for the first time, Hu Le was questioned many times by the guys who suddenly rushed out to kidnap him, and even suffered a lot of beatings for this, but where did Hu Le know what the great evil world was, he naturally denied it, but these guys seemed to recognize him as the so-called thief, and kept punching and kicking him, and even tortured him, until he passed out.

At this moment, when asked this question again, Hu Le shook his head again and again without thinking about it, and hurriedly said: "The little ones have never heard of any great evil realms, they must be mistaken by the adults!"

"Hmph, no one except you has a chance to get close to me and steal the cultivation method of the Great Sin Realm, and besides, you are so close to that kid, only you will give the stolen method to that kid and let him steal the exercises of my Heavenly Que Realm. Then Song Douyuan was obviously unwilling to give Hu Le more room to defend himself, so he directly deducted the charge on Hu Le's head.

Hu Le didn't even know who the kid in Song Douyuan's mouth was, but he was suddenly charged with such a life-threatening crime, and Hu Le didn't have the heart to find out the bottom line, but instinctively wanted to continue to defend himself.

"The evidence is conclusive, do you still want to deny it?!" Song Douyuan shouted loudly, interrupting Hu Le's words that he was about to export before he could do so. After saying this, Song Douyuan turned his eyes to look at Xiao Meng behind him, and said again in a low tone: "Brother Xiao, let him draw a charge." ”

When Xiao Meng heard this, his brows furrowed, he subconsciously looked sideways at Wei Xuan on the side, only to see the old man nodding imperceptibly at him, Xiao Meng suppressed a little uneasiness in his heart, took out a letter full of handwriting from his arms, and walked towards Hu Le, and Xiao Du, who was standing at the door, also realized when he saw this, and stepped to Xiao Meng's side again, reached out and grabbed Hu Le's hand, and pressed it in the ink that had been prepared on the side, and the next moment he put Hu Le's hand stained with red ink on the stationery.

Seeing this, Hu Le immediately reacted, this was to bend him into a move. Wherever he was willing, he struggled frantically at that time. But now he is covered in injuries, how can he break free from Xiao Du's shackles? After a struggle, except for delaying for a while, there is no other use, and his hand is still slowly leaning against the letter paper in Xiao Meng's hand under Xiao Du's drag.

Hu Le's heart was desperate, he looked up at Xiao Meng who was standing in front of him, as if he was trying to grasp the last straw, and said loudly to Xiao Meng: "Young Master Xiao, it's me! Hu Le! You forgot that when you were in the White Horse Academy, we had dinner together! I also helped you do your schoolwork at the academy, and I replaced you with the punishment of being on duty at night!"

Xiao Meng was also sent to the White Horse Academy by Xiao Baihe for a period of time, in order to cure his lazy nature. During this period, he had so many contacts with Hu Le, after all, Hu Le is also a well-known figure in the White Horse Academy - but anything that can make money, this guy will not miss it, and Young Master Xiao is tired of many requirements in the school, so there have been so many times to spend money for Hu Le to help deal with the intersection of various trivial matters in the school.

Before, because the night was too dark and he didn't think about it in this regard, Xiao Meng didn't notice Hu Le's identity, but when he heard the other party's words, he felt that the fat man with a blue nose and swollen face in front of him was quite familiar.

This made Xiao Meng's heart tremble, and the movements in his hands couldn't help but stagnate.

The Wei Xuan sitting on the side caught a glimpse of Xiao Meng's hesitation, his brows furrowed, and the hand hidden under the cuff snapped his fingers violently, and a wave of energy poured out from his fingertips and slapped on Xiao Meng's back. Xiao Meng, who had never thought of such a change, was stunned at that time, leaned forward, and the letter full of confessions in his hand was just forward, hitting Hu Le's hand that was pulled by Xiao Du and stretched out, so Hu Le's handprint was pressed on the letterhead......

Hu Le, who was still struggling desperately and begging for mercy in his mouth, turned pale at that time, and his struggle and begging for mercy came to an abrupt end. The whole person slumped as if he had lost his strength, and sat on the ground weakly. He knew very well what a tragic fate awaited him after such a confession was signed, and even the next moment they would have to kill him.

"Bastard! get me out !!"

But at this moment, there was a sudden angry rebuke outside the inn, accompanied by a vast momentum surging towards it, even across the floor, everyone present could clearly feel the majestic anger contained in the tone of the person who spoke.

"Who is so noisy?" asked the old man in black who was sitting in the first seat with a frown and deep eyes.

saw that Xiao Meng's face turned pale in an instant, and the few tooth generals brought by Xiao Meng were sweating profusely and stood in place as if they had been struck by lightning.

Wei Xuan, who was sitting on the side seat, also stood up at that time, walked quickly to the side of the door, looked out of the room through the window, and after a while, he retracted his gaze, looked at the people in the room again, and said, "It's Xiao Mu." ”

"Is that the top of the Ningzhou Hanxing List?" The girl in the Tianque Realm was shocked when she heard this, jumped down from her seat, and asked with a curious expression.

"Hmph, what's the top of the list? It's just the head of a chicken in the barbarian land, not as good as a phoenix's tail. Seeing that his junior sister showed a look of great interest in Xiao Mu, Song Douyuan suddenly felt unhappy, so he snorted coldly at that time.

The girl didn't pay attention to what Song Douyuan said, but still stared in the direction of the window.

"Don't worry about Xiao Xian's nephew, this matter is what the old man informed you about, if the eldest prince really wants to be punished, it must be counted on the head of my Tianque realm, and it has nothing to do with the virtuous nephew. However, Mr. Zuo, who was dressed in black on the side, ignored the remarks of his juniors, he saw Xiao Meng's fear of that Xiao Mu, smiled slightly, and said with such relief in his mouth. As he spoke, he then stood up and walked out, and when he passed the door of the room, he glanced at the generals standing at the door of the room, and said, "Take him with you, and I will go to the eldest prince on your behalf to plead guilty." ”

When the tooth generals heard this, their hearts were a little calm, so they naturally didn't dare to disobey the old man's wishes, and hurriedly stepped forward to set up Hu Le, who was sitting on the ground, and kept up with the pace of Mr. Zuo's departure.

......

When the group followed Mr. Zuo to the door of the White Crane Inn, a large number of spectators from all over Ning'an Street had already gathered outside the White Crane Inn.

Even for these big people who are in Ning'an Street at the moment, the scene in front of them is extremely strange, how can this White Crane Inn be said to be the Xiao family's own industry, but now it is surrounded by Xiao Mu and his troops, such a situation is naturally very easy to arouse the surging curiosity of uninformed spectators.

Xiao Meng followed behind Mr. Zuo, and caught a glimpse of the young general standing in front of a group of armor soldiers from a distance, he shrunk his neck and pressed his head very low, but this obviously could not deceive Xiao Mu's eyes.

"Get out of here!" The cold voice came from outside the inn from afar, and Xiao Meng, who was trying to hide behind the crowd, trembled and froze in place.

Fortunately, Mr. Zuo stepped forward at that time, skillfully blocking Xiao Meng's figure behind him, only to hear Mr. Zuo say to Xiao Mu who was not far away: "Nephew Xiao Xian, what are you doing at the White Crane Inn so late?"

Mr. Zuo said this with a bright smile on his face, as if he really didn't know about it.

Xiao Mu was also stunned when he saw the other party, and hurriedly bowed to the other party at that time, and said respectfully: "Xiao Mu has seen Mr. Zuo." ”

Mr. Zuo was quite satisfied with the other party's respectful attitude, and there was no lack of sincere admiration in his eyes when he looked at Xiao Mu - compared to Xiao Meng, the youngest son of Xiao Baihe who was sent to the Tianque Realm as an apprentice through various relationships, Mr. Zuo was more willing to include this Xiao Dagongzi in the door, even if the other party had passed the best age for initiation and cultivation, but with Xiao Mu's temperament, it was completely enough to cover the defects in age, and he would not be able to achieve a lot of achievements in the Tianque Realm in the future. For this reason, Mr. Zuo also threw his olive branch to Xiao Baihe, but Xiao Baihe refused the matter with a wry smile, and the reason was extremely simple, he said that Xiao Mu had no intention of joining any sect, and was more willing to join the army and serve the country.

But Mr. Zuo didn't take such a statement to heart, after all, Xiao Mu probably had such an idea just because he had no chance to contact the Tianque Realm before, and when such an opportunity came, Mr. Zuo didn't think that anyone would have the courage to refuse the Tianque Realm, at least in Mr. Zuo's previous decades of life, no matter how high the genius demon he thought of, in the end, he would inevitably bow his head under the three big characters of the Tianque Realm.

"Xiao Xian's nephew is making such a big fuss, I don't know what's going on?" Thinking of this, Mr. Zuo squinted his eyes and asked with a smile, with a kind attitude, thinking of using this to get closer to Xiao Mu and prepare for his future plans.

Xiao Mu replied respectfully: "My brother violated military discipline and transferred troops for personal use, and I came here to take him back to accountability." ”

At this time, Wei Lai also helped Hu Subai to the crowd, although the old woman was dizzy, but she still saw her pale Hu Le who was supported by two strong men.

"Le'er!" The frightened old woman could no longer hold back the worries in her heart at this time, and shouted at Hu Le, Hu Le heard this, and his body was also shocked, and he looked up at the woman standing side by side with Wei Lai in the crowd.

After a short period of surprise, Hu Le exclaimed worriedly, "Mother-in-law, why are you here?"

"General, that's my grandson, you save him quickly!" Hu Subai confirmed the identity of his grandson, and he didn't care about anything else at the moment, pulling Xiao Mu's armor on the side and said anxiously.

Xiao Mu was silent, just glanced at Wei Lai beside Hu Subai. Wei Lai understood, hurriedly stretched out his hand and grabbed Hu Subai, and said with relief in his mouth: "Mother-in-law, don't worry, General Xiao will definitely make decisions for you." ”

Probably because Wei Lai had saved their mother-in-law and grandson several times before and after, after Hu Subai heard this, although there was still a star hanging, it was somewhat quiet for the time being.

At this time, Xiao Mufang turned his head to look at Mr. Zuo again, and said with a smile: "Mr. also saw it, my younger brother, he is too spoiled at home on weekdays, and he is very domineering." Today, I kidnapped this woman's grandson, if I don't discipline her, it will be bad for the reputation of my Xiao family and Zixiao Army. But I didn't want to bump into Mr. Zuo and Wei Lao here, and collided with the two, and tomorrow's junior will be guilty of asking for guilt, and let the two be punished. ”

After saying this, Xiao Mu's gaze froze, and once again fell on the body of Xiao Meng behind the crowd, and scolded angrily: "Bastard, don't you want me to come?"

Xiao Mu's way of directly scolding Xiao Meng by bypassing Mr. Zuo this time was a bit rude, and at the moment when he shouted violently, the smile on the face of the old man in black froze, and his brows furrowed slightly. Seeing this, Wei Xuan, who was on the side, hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Xiao Mu, what are you doing? Who did you learn from this fiery temper, why did you shout loudly without asking the reason?"

Wei Xuan and the Xiao family have always been good friends, and when it comes to seniority, Xiao Baihe still has to call him uncle, and there is nothing wrong with his reprimand. After saying this, his tone calmed down a little, and then said: "Besides, this matter is not Meng'er's wanton behavior, I asked him to do it. ”

When Xiao Mu heard this, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Then why did Grandpa Wei Xuan do this?"

Wei Xuan glared at Xiao Mu angrily, stretched out his finger and pointed at Hu Leyan, who was embarrassed by the two of them, and said: "This guy stole Song Shizi's exercises, and this matter accidentally became a disagreement between the Tianque Realm and Dayan, and the matter was in a hurry, so I asked Meng'er to send some people to arrest the thief, and find out the culprit for Song Shizi and Mr. Zuo." ”

"Is that so?" Xiao Mu was noncommittal, he said this, and asked, "How is the investigation?"

Seeing this, Wei Xuan secretly thought that he had made it clear enough, and with Xiao Mu's intelligence, he would also understand the priorities of this, and there was no reason to be embarrassed by these big people in the Tianque Realm. He took advantage of Xiao Mu's question and said: "It has been found clearly, and the thief has also confessed to the law." Saying that, Wei Xuan also glanced at Xiao Meng behind him, Xiao Meng suddenly understood, and hurriedly led his subordinates to step forward with Hu Le, and at the same time handed over the letter paper that Hu Le had drawn in his hand, but at this time, Xiao Meng was still a little afraid of his brother, and his outstretched hand shrank, and his eyes were also evasive, and he didn't seem to dare to make eye contact with Xiao Mu.

The expression on Xiao Mu's face was cold, he unceremoniously reached out and took the letter from Xiao Meng's hand, looked down, and read the contents of the letter one by one.

The expression on Xiao Mu's face did not change at all during the whole process, and this also made Xiao Meng, who had been watching him nervously, feel more and more uneasy.

After a hundred breaths, under the gaze of the dignitaries and dignitaries of the entire Ning'an Street, the young commander of the Zixiao Army finally withdrew his gaze that fell on the letterhead, and then he slowly raised his head and looked at his younger brother, the light in his eyes calmed down, and he lost the anger he had before. Xiao Meng secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart when he saw this, but he heard Xiao Mu ask, "Do you know what is written on this confession?"

When Xiao Meng heard this, his eyes subconsciously looked at Wei who was standing behind Xiao Mu, then nodded and whispered, "I know." ”

"Yes. Xiao Mu repeated his brother's words, but he didn't say no.

Seeing this, Wei Xuan, who was on the side, hurriedly said good things for Xiao Meng: "Meng'er participated in the whole interrogation of this thief this time, and the confession has been checked several times, you can rest assured." ”

Xiao Meng glanced at Wei Xuan gratefully, and finally mustered up the courage to say something to Xiao Mu at that time.

Syllable!

But at this moment, the stack of letter paper was thrown over by Xiao Mu fiercely and smashed heavily on Xiao Meng's face.

Probably didn't expect Xiao Mu to behave like this, Xiao Meng, who was thrown in the face by the stack of letters, was a little confused, and before he could react, one hand followed the stack of letterheads, and slammed it on the side of his face.

A hot pain came from the side of his face, accompanied by Xiao Mu's cold voice: "Then you are sincere in putting my Xiao family and Zixiao Army to death, right?"
