Chapter Eighty-Three: Confusing
Baigu Peak, where the Witch Alliance is located, has at least 250 days of rain in 365 days a year, and most of the time when it doesn't rain is also clouds and mist lingering in the mountains. The climate here is hot, with little difference between night and day temperatures, and there are no significant seasonal changes.
Baigu Peak does not refer to a single peak, nor does it refer to a hundred peaks, but refers to the base camp of the Witch Alliance stationed in the group of peaks, these undulating peaks, majestic, strange, dangerous, beautiful, secluded, almost all the advantages of the world's famous mountains, there are ninety-six peaks, thirty-six rocks, twenty-eight streams, seventeen streams, nine pools, seven stones, five springs and other magnificent scenery. From the front gate of the dragon mountain into the Phnom Penh Mountain, has been winding up, through the silver Zhu Stream, Xuanling Gate, falling horse stone, up to the heavenly fortune peak, and then go around and around, and finally to the headquarters of the Witch Alliance, picking the star peak on the Mu Hall, can be described as a step by step, dizzying.
Most of the houses of the Witch Alliance are made of bamboo and wood, using the most common pine and green bamboo trees in Baigu Peak, and they will build the houses high, with high ridges and low eaves, and the entire roof is very sloping, which is to drain water quickly. The rain of Baigu Peak is day and night, the wind is surging, the black clouds are thick, and the downpour is coming, and if it is not drained quickly, it will crush these houses made of wood.
There are many bamboo forests in Baigu Peak, you can see different varieties of bamboo forests everywhere, and the Mutang is hidden in that large purple bamboo forest, which is almost on the top of the mountain on the Star Picking Peak, the purple bamboo forest symbolizes the purple qi coming from the east, and the Star Picking Peak is surrounded by clouds and smoke all the year round, full of fairy energy, the pioneer of the Witch Alliance was in love with this point before establishing the alliance here.
After nearly a thousand years of development, the Witch Alliance is now very large, and now there are nearly a thousand people. The discord between the countries of the Southern Continent does not affect them to send their children to the Witch Alliance to learn witchcraft, but the Witch Alliance has strict recruitment requirements, and they must pass their test before they can become an apprentice.
It takes at least ten years of rigorous training for these apprentices to become wizards, and if they want to join the combat team, they need to train for two more years, and after testing and proving that they can take charge of themselves, they will be allowed to enter the most beautiful demon hunting army.
There are far fewer wizards who join the Beast Hunters, because very few orcs go out to harm the world, and these beast hunters often have nothing to do, so there are very few wizards who choose this profession.
It's all because there is no boss in the fairy forest, although there are nominal guardians, most of these guardians still go their own way, those demon clans still don't obey discipline, they can do whatever they want, and they do it if they don't like each other, and Jianmu Forest really has a boss, and there are dozens of powerful subordinates under the boss who act as gold medal fighters, everyone obeys this boss, and those beasts dare not casually step out of the Jianmu Forest to harm the human world.
Most wizards choose the profession of exorcism.
Almost all the people of the countries in Nanzhou believe in the theory of ghosts and gods, fifty percent of the wizards of the Witch Alliance are demon exorcists, and the remaining thirty percent are in the Witch Alliance, and the miscellaneous work here is to work in the eight halls.
The eight halls of the Witch Alliance, Qiantang, Duitang, Litang, Zhentang, Xuntang, Kantang, Gentang, and Kuntang, each hall is responsible for a different part, and the division of labor is clear.
Qiantang hunts demons, Kuntang exorcises ghosts, hunts beasts in the hall, leaves the hall to pass on gong, shakes the precepts of the hall, receives the Xuntang, eats and drinks in the Kantang, and supervises the reclamation hall.
Each hall is in charge of a hall master, and the hall master of the Qiantang where Wushan is located is Wu Ling, a female great wizard, but her strength is not weaker than the other seven hall masters, but she has gone out to perform a mission and has not returned for the time being, otherwise with her extremely protective temperament, she will see that the disciples in the hall have been wronged, and she will definitely make a mess.
The person in charge of interrogating Wushan's murder of Wu Ying was Zhentang, and the hall master was Wu Yan, who was in the same division as the leader of the Wuqian Alliance.
Wu Yan is sixty-three years old this year, and since he was promoted to the head of the hall, he has enforced the law impartially and selflessly, and has been appreciated by the wizards of the Witch Alliance.
The main chamber of the earthquake hall is on the Tiandu Peak, the north side of the Tianzhu Peak, the height is only this in the Tianzhu Peak, today is the day of the interrogation of Wushan, Wu Yan ordered someone to bring Wushan to come to the hearing.
Since last night, the drizzle has been raining non-stop, and after descending the Black Rock Mountain, the wizard who guards it is kind enough to hand Wushan a robe.
At this time, Wu Shan untied his coat and slowly walked into the Zimu Hall, only to find that not only the presiding master Wu Yan Hall Master was there, but also the Lord of the Wuqian Alliance was also here, in addition, Wu Cheng, the master of Kun Hall, Wu Li, the master of Xun Hall, Wu Xin, the master of Kan Hall, and Wu Lie, the master of Dui Hall, were also present.
"Wushan knocked to see the alliance leader and the five hall masters. Wu Shan knelt down and bowed to Wu Gan, who was sitting in the middle, and the other five hall masters.
No one called Wushan up, so Wushan naturally didn't dare to move.
"Wushan, are you guilty?" Wu Yan asked sharply, leaning on the high chair.
"The disciple killed Wu Ying by mistake and was willing to accept the rules of the alliance. Wu Shan raised his head and looked at Wu Yan calmly.
"Just a mistakenly killed?" Wu Yan asked again with a straight face.
"I don't have the subjective intention to kill the Witch Shadow, and I don't know where the Witch Shadow will appear. ”
"Okay, then tell me about the situation. ”
"I was about to fight Wu Wu, who expected that his way, he used black witchcraft to control my spirit, and when I came to my senses, I found that I had stabbed Wu Ying, and you happened to be around to witness this moment. ”
Wu Yan stared at Wu Shan under the hall to see if he was lying, but Wu Shan's face was not red or panting, his face was calm as usual, Wu Yan could hardly see the clues, so he had to continue to ask: "You mean that the dark wizards created such a scene that deliberately let me see you kill the witch shadow to frame you?"
"Yes. ”
"What about the evidence?"
"I didn't. Wu Shan said it bluntly.
"Okay, let's not say this in advance, you said that you fell for the witchcraft of Wuwu, but those demon clans in the fairy forest said that they didn't see you and the dark wizard together, but saw you and the witch shadow fighting together for a long time. ”
"When?" Wu Shan looked up suddenly, he didn't know that there was such a statement, and Wu Wu had never mentioned it to him.
Wu Qian was very dissatisfied when he saw Wushan so excited, and coughed to let him calm down.
Wu Shan bowed his head gloomily.
Wu Yan replied sharply to Wushan's words, his face was as deep as a mountain: "More than one demon clan said so. According to them, you haven't met a dark wizard since you entered the fairy forest, and the only person who has come into contact with you is the Witch Shadow. ”
"Really?" Wu Shan suddenly clenched his fists, the so-called crime of wanting to add to it, there is no excuse, this shows that the dark wizard has united with the demon clan to slander him.
"Exactly. Just after entering Yunxian Mountain, a demon clan saw that you had met a witch shadow, and a dispute ensued, and finally you killed him in a fit of rage. ”
"It's with this magic sword. Wu Yan said, and ordered someone to present a long sword with a snow-white body, which had been sealed by Wu Qian, and was lying quietly on the tray at this time.
"How did you get this sword?" Wu Yan asked.
"Wu Ling gave me to deal with Wu Wu. ”
"Death is not repentant. Do you know how many wizards in our alliance have died under this infamous magic sword?" Among the several hall masters, Wu Lie had the most violent temper, suddenly stood up, picked up the daylight, and threw it out of the hall with all his might, "It's good for you, now use this magic sword to kill your own junior sister, are you worthy of those bloody wizards back then?"
"Wu Shan just told me what I knew, if the master of the Wu Lie Hall didn't believe it, I ......" Wu Shan lowered his head, not daring to look at Wu Lie.
Wu Lie saw that Wushan never admitted his mistake, and the fire in his heart became even stronger, he took two steps forward, raised his hand high, and wanted to slap it down, but was stopped by Wu Gan: "Wu Lie, okay." ”
Wu Lie was unwilling, but he couldn't disobey the words of the alliance leader, so he glared at Wu Shan fiercely, and then slowly returned to the seat and sat down, don't look at him.
Among the many hall masters sitting in the Zimu Hall, Wu Cheng believed in Wushan the most, and he firmly believed that Wushan would not kill Wuying, because Wushan knew that Wuying liked him and would never do these things, and Wushan was usually upright, respected his teacher, and loved his junior brother, how could he do something to kill his fellow disciples? But they did witness this process with their own eyes, and those demon clans who testified were also conclusive and convinced, which made people unable not to believe it.
In the past few days, when discussing matters, Wu Cheng has argued for Wushan, but he can't and can't come up with evidence to prove that Wushan was framed. Watching several hall masters determine Wushan's crime little by little, Wu Cheng could only sigh.
"This man's wolf ambition must not stay in Baigu Peak. Being scolded by Wu Qian in front of several hall masters, Wu Lie was stunned.
"This matter has not yet been decided, how can it be judged so rashly. Wu Cheng said.
"Senior Brother Wu Cheng is right, if it is determined that Wushan has committed the rules of the alliance, and the master of the Discipline Hall will deal with it, Wu Lie, you should not be impatient. Wu Li said at this time.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the Mother and Son Hall. Wu Yan knocked on the desk.
Wu Yan's words are obvious, now he is the main interrogator of Wushan, and irrelevant people should not speak, so as not to affect the interrogation, which is also a violation of the alliance rules.
Wu Cheng smiled at Wu Yan and made a gesture to sew his mouth, and Wu Lie and Wu Li were also silent.
Wu Yan looked at Wu Shan, who had been bowing his head under the hall, with a cold face: "You will tell me what you have done after entering the Fairy Forest, I want you to explain the whole process clearly, and you can't miss a point, even if you go up to relieve yourself, you have to explain it to us clearly." ”
