Chapter Ninety-Seven: Breaking the Conspiracy
Qing Xuan said in his heart, woke up just right, looked at Pan Xiaoxiao with a pair of eyes, and asked, "Are you Pan Xiaoxiao?" β
When Pan Xiaoxiao had seen this kind of battle, she was only stupid with fright, stunned, and looked at the master on the side. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
Tang said, "Uncle Shi asks you something, you can say whatever you have, see what I do?" β
Pan Xiaoxiao nodded.
On the side, Tang Xu said angrily, "Don't you know how to speak?" β
Pan Xiaoxiao was scolded by him, her eyes immediately turned red, she was inexplicably frightened, she nodded her head wildly, and said in a choked voice, "Back to my uncle, I am indeed Pan Xiaoxiao." β
Qing Xuan saw that this child was silly and cute, and his voice was much softer, so he comforted her and said, "You don't have to be afraid, we have something to ask you, and we won't embarrass you." β
Pan Xiaoxiao nodded with a sluggish expression, and her heart was a little more settled.
Only then did I notice that Tang Xu was tied up.
The fear in her heart receded slightly, and she seemed to understand something.
Qing Xuan asked her, "I heard that you went to the library to steal books tonight, do you know that this crime of stealing books is not trivial, you will be expelled from the teacher's door, and you will be deprived of your Danqing Taoism and become a waster?" β
Pan Xiaoxiao was so frightened that two lines of tears instantly slipped down her face, and she couldn't cry, "I, I was coerced, not out of intention, and I really didn't steal anything......"
Speaking of which, she leaned her head against the wall, only to feel that all thoughts were lost, and that I was going to be reduced to a wasted person.
Qing Xuan didn't expect her to be so intimidated, and a trace of guilt couldn't help but appear on her face.
Huo Lian's face did not change, and the cold face carved by the eternal gold and jade asked her, "Don't cry!" And I ask you, by whom you were coerced into stealing from the library? β
Pan Xiaoxiao was startled by him drinking like this, and stopped crying in an instant.
She was stunned, and said in her heart, if I say it, it will be ...... Wouldn't it be that the master would poison my intestines and rot my stomach, and I don't know if it is dawn now, how long I have to live.
Thinking of this, she trembled and cautiously glanced at Tang Xu.
Tang Xu was extremely uncomfortable with her, and said coldly, "If you have something to say, look at what I do, after asking you, I will have my own explanation." β
"That," Pan Xiaoxiao rolled her big eyes on a round face, and said cautiously, "Then I'll tell you the truth......"
Huo Lian slapped a few palms on the top and shouted, "You still don't recruit from the truth, if there is a little lie, I will use this punishment to deal with you!" β
Pan Xiaoxiao shrank her neck in fright, and said continuously, "Okay, okay, I'll say I'll say." β
Shang Yun saw it in his eyes, and he also felt quite funny, this Uncle Huo Lian could suppress her.
But it's true that I've never seen a cowardly thief like her, and she can't hide anything in her heart, so she has to stay as far away from her as possible in the future, and she can't tell her any secrets, otherwise she will definitely be truthfully confessed if she is tortured a little.
Pan Xiaoxiao thought for a while, and said tremblingly, "My master asked me to go to the library and find a diagram called the Four Machines Xuanshu Great Array. β
Speaking of this, I couldn't help but look at Tang Xu.
Tang Xu only closed a pair of eyes and ignored her, so as not to be suspicious of others.
Her voice was a little quieter, and she muttered, "My master fed me poison, saying that if I don't find this diagram before dawn, I will die of rotting my intestines......
After speaking, she pursed her mouth and couldn't help crying, "I'm also going to die, what do you want?" β
Qing Xuan's face was stunned, and she couldn't smile bitterly, so she had to comfort her and said, "Don't cry, I'm here, keep you from dying!" β
Pan Xiaoxiao listened to it in her ears, and then she stopped crying, still couldn't believe it, and asked with a pair of big eyes, "What Uncle Shi said is true?" β
Qing Xuan nodded impatiently, and Pan Xiaoxiao burst into tears and smiled, "Thank you, uncle." β
β¦β¦
Qing Xuan didn't care about her anymore, and looked back at Tang Xu, "Senior Brother Tang Xu, how should you explain this?" β
What she said was completely consistent with what Shang Yun said, and if it seemed like this, Tang Xu would not be able to clear the matter.
Tang Xu opened his eyes when he heard Qing Xuan come to ask.
A pair of beautiful eyes, looking at Qing Xuan, did not have the slightest fear.
He smiled and said, "Can I speak?" β
Without waiting for Qing Xuan to open his mouth, he stated, "There are a few doubts in this, I have to explain it clearly to the senior brothers." First, if I am a traitor in the door and want to destroy the Four Machines Xuanshu Great Array, I can go to the library myself, or entrust a reliable person, how can I let this stupid apprentice take risks and be self-defeating, and then I won't lift a stone and shoot myself in the foot? β
When everyone heard it, they also felt that there was some truth.
This Pan Xiaoxiao is so naΓ―ve and stupid, firstly, she can't succeed, and secondly, after being arrested, she can't hide any secrets.
Pan Xiaoxiao on the side listened, her face was stunned, she dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, she only held a round face red, and she couldn't speak for a long time.
Tang Xu said again, "I wanted these four mysteries because I ran into a conspiracy at night. β
"Conspiracy?"
When Qing Xuan heard this, he looked at him sideways, his heart was excited, and he couldn't help coughing.
"Yes." Tang Xu nodded and said slowly.
"Today's opening ceremony was held, and the door was celebrated, and after dinner, I didn't go back to the room, because the fifth senior brother Liu asked me to go to the Fengwan Pavilion to drink. I am good friends with my senior brother on weekdays, and although his apprentice Han Yun is not high, he makes good wine, and Senior Brother Liu said that he has kept it private for many years, and it is only used to celebrate in the door at this time, so he invited me to go.
There was a lot of gossip during the banquet, so I won't go into details.
We were happy today, so we drank more, and before we knew it, it was already night, and I saw that it was not early, so I called my brother back, but he was still in high spirits, and insisted on staying alone in the pavilion to enjoy the moon and drink.
I couldn't survive him, so I just excused myself and said that I couldn't drink, and I came back alone.
When I got to the central courtyard, I suddenly heard a human voice, which was extremely unfamiliar, and I didn't want to eavesdrop, because it was not a gentleman's doing.
How could I hear the sentence 'Four Machines Xuanshu Great Array', and I couldn't hold it back.
Because as we all know, these four machine Xuanshu Formation is the mountain protection magic array in our sect, which is related to life and death, but it comes from two unfamiliar voices, which can't help but make people suspicious.
So I kept an eye on it and smuggled up the hidden figure to sneak into the past.
Not far away, I vaguely saw two figures.
One of them was dressed in black and masked, it was a woman, and the other was slender and long, but he was wearing a white vulgar robe, which was also covered with a white cloth, and I didn't know if these two people were disciples in the sect, but if they wanted to come to the night mask, it must be a bad thing, so I listened carefully.
But I heard the man's hoarse voice, as if he was deliberately speaking at the top of his throat, afraid that others would recognize him, so he only said, "We have already discussed, if we take the position of acting head, if we can't get the position of acting head, then it will be inevitable to fight, I just hope that at that time, we will use the power of the Seven Monarchs of the White Night." β
As soon as I heard that it was related to the Seven Monarchs of the White Night, I knew that something was wrong, so I didn't dare to alarm them.
As soon as the man's voice fell, the woman in black beside him spoke, "That's natural, but there is something in this sect that is very powerful, and we have to try to get rid of it." β
The eyes of the two met together, and they said in unison, "Four Machines Xuanshu Great Array." β
The woman lowered her voice and laughed, and asked him, "Then do you have a way to get the diagram of this four-machine Xuanshu Great Array?" β
The man shook his head and said, "No, this diagram has always been known only to the head of the sect, since Nanhua Shi ......" His expression changed, and he was afraid that he would miss something, so he corrected, "Since Nanhuazi left the mountains and traveled, only Qingxuan was left in the door to know this diagram." β
If he said the master or the master or the ancestor, it would be easy to infer this generation, but he didn't say it, so I don't know his identity.
I can only press my heart and listen carefully to the next words.
The man paused and said, "However, there is another place in this Danqing Gate, which is a forbidden place in the door, which collects all kinds of Danqing books, and perhaps these four Xuanshu diagrams are also among them." β
When I heard this, I couldn't help but be surprised, knowing that what he was talking about was the library building.
The woman said, "In this case, it is better for us to divide the soldiers into two ways, I will go to this library, you go to Qing Xuan to ask for the method, he is now out of strength, it should be easy to subdue." β
The man smiled, "It is precisely because of this that you should go to Qingxuan, and I should go to the library." β
"Why?"
I also had this question in my heart, and who knew that the woman would find out.
The man laughed, "You forgot that there is also a skilled guard in the library, I am afraid that you will go and ask for hardship." So I had to go. β
After hearing this, the woman nodded solemnly, and the two of them split up and acted separately.
I was about to chase after this woman, but I heard a voice behind me, calling me Master, which scared me a lot.
I looked back and saw that it was my unsuccessful apprentice, Pan Xiaoxiao.
β
Speaking of this, a wry smile appeared on Tang Xu's face, "It's a coincidence, who is not good, but it is her, and she is at this critical juncture." When I looked back again, there were still half a figure in the courtyard, but I was afraid that they had already left according to plan.
I blamed me, an unsuccessful apprentice, for delaying the important event in the door, but after thinking about it, I felt that she was a little similar to the woman in black.
So I thought about it, so I asked my apprentice to pretend to be her and go to the library to find the four machine Xuanshu diagrams.
Because I was afraid that my disciple would not be able to succeed, so I took the Lun Cleansing Pill with her, this Lung Cleansing Pill, when the effect of the medicine is onset, it will cause pain in the abdomen, and at the same time force the blood in the body from the mouth and nose, which is quite a bit of poison, so I lied to her that she used poison, and only told her to get the drawings back before dawn.
At the same time, just to deceive this man who stole the map, I instructed my apprentice that if he saw someone in the building, he would only say, 'Qingxuan's side is heavily guarded and can't enter, so I have to come here to find the four-machine Xuanshu map.' β
If nothing else, I should be able to deceive for a while, and I just took advantage of this period to find this woman in black to protect my brother's safety.
