75. The Furnace I
Ming Mo begged bitterly in the bottom of her heart: "Look at me!" Just at a glance...... Tell me, none of this is true! ”
Bo Ling never withdrew his gaze from the watchtower. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"You say! Why the hell is that! ”
Tears fell inexplicably, and Xiao Jing looked at her from the side, and quickly reached out and patted her back.
Who knew that Ming Mo finally couldn't help but burst out with that shout: "Look at me!" Who the hell are you! ”
Bo Ling was shocked by this voice and turned around, and searched around the stage with a blank face.
Only one person in the crowd looked at him in silence.
Her eyes were both evasive and full of anticipation.
Bo Ling smiled happily, but took it back bitterly.
Ming Mo is still alive, she is still alive.
Bo Ling quickly lowered his head, thinking repeatedly in his heart about how to face this old man.
At least not what it looks like now.
At this moment, Wangshu on the watchtower finally waited for the voice to gradually stop: "The people who are controlled by the doctrine are our own people, you are no longer of my race, and you dare to go to the religious hall?" ”
Hearing this question, Bo Ling slowly raised his head to look at Ming Mo not far away, as if he had finally found the courage he wanted in her eyes: "Tell me what crime I have committed!" ”
Atsuko immediately waved his hand and took the words: "As the worshipper of Muzi, you colluded with the secret society, spread rumors about the disappearance of the saint, and even bewitched the people to go north without authorization, so that today's situation has been caused!" It's because of you that how many people have left their homes and finally died at the hands of the epidemic! ”
"Nonsense! You guys...... You are trying to impose all the crimes on me alone! You have no proof at all! ”
"You want proof, don't you?"
Atsuko seemed to have expected him to say this, and with an order, the ruling group dragged a man along.
Ming Mo felt a little familiar at first glance, and Xiaojing whispered to her behind her: "It's the doorman in the painting village!" ”
The man looked around with a shrunken head, as if it was the first time he had been stared at by so many people.
Atsuko just asked him to say who he was, but who knew that this person actually inexplicably swelled his heart, chattering as if he really came to the stage: "...... Mr. Li was very strange during that time, you said that we were just a painting village, and guests were naturally welcome with a wide range of doors, but he actually ordered us to strictly investigate, and I was slapped a lot! Later, after the gate of the south was closed, he seldom showed up, and we were not allowed to go to him, and I didn't think much of it until a woman came to him that day......"
Ming Mo and Xiao Jing followed up below.
"What woman?"
Atsuko quickly interjected and asked him.
"It was getting dark that day, and I just thought that woman was sneaky, saying that Mr. Li asked her to get some drawings."
The crowd instantly resounded for a while, and soon a few more people came up on the stage, unlike before, this time a total of five portraits were opened, and all of them were painted with women of different colors.
The woman on the painting has never seen any of them, and naturally they don't look like Ming Mo.
"Look closely, which woman is it?"
At this time, someone came over with a lamp, and walked over to see the doorman in one hand.
When he walked to the third picture, he suddenly slapped his face with an "ouch": "It's her!" ”
Wangshu retreated from the railing contentedly, and Atsuko added in a vague way: "Are you sure?" ”
The man nodded vigorously towards the watchtower, "Your Excellency...... I've only seen such a beautiful woman once! I can't forget it! ”
Bai Qian looked at it with his head on the edge of the cliff, and then said proudly: "If I'm not mistaken, it should be Sister Wanshu, haven't you seen it yet?" ”
Jieya casually agreed, Bai Qian raised his hand and pushed the mask on his face to the tip of his nose: "Actually, Sister Wanshu is amazing!" This time thanks to her help, but ...... I never spoke to her. ”
Jieya understood in an instant, and the next set that Ao Zhi said turned out to be what he meant.
Bai Qian was still there and continued to ask him: "Why don't you speak!" ”
Jieya had already turned his head silently.
Bo Ling on the stage was completely kept in the dark, and the grievances on his face gradually turned into despair, and he looked back at everyone staring at him questioningly.
Atsuko waved his hand to let the doorman go down, and a few words seemed to pronounce his death sentence: "This woman is the murderer of Master Ji, she escaped from the rest of the capital and was not heard from until she appeared in front of your door, I ask you, is what I said true?" ”
Bo Ling naturally didn't know how to answer, and now that the ruling group had confirmed the relationship between him and the secret society, he decided to take advantage of the situation to ask to the end: "I ask you...... Where the hell did you hide her? Is what I said true? Do you plead guilty or not? ”
Seeing that even Ming Mo at this moment looked away in disbelief.
Atsuko asked again: "You have turned your back on the gods and all of us, do you confess your sins?" ”
The only bit of longing left in Bo Ling's heart was ruthlessly trampled on by these people. He ducked his head dodgedly, kneeling in the snow for so long, and it was only then that he really felt the cold like a knife.
There will be a decision tonight anyway, not to mention that the whereabouts of the murderer are still a mystery to this day.
So the watchtower did not stop for a moment: "Gather everyone today, I believe that most of them are innocent...... So if there are people down there who have gone astray, I hope you can stand up bravely and not affect your family...... Because it is shameless and unforgivable to deceive those closest to you! In the same way, if anyone knows the whereabouts of the rebels and asks your heart, your piety, you must be faithful to our God, and point him out, that is, atone for his sins! He will be forgiven by the doctrine, and we will accept him again, and everything will be light! On the contrary, if you keep silent, I can guarantee that the person you are protecting will never return to the riverbank tonight! ”
The power of intimidation is naturally the most effective, not to mention that after freezing in the snow for so long, the crowd immediately burst into a burst of pleading.
No matter where that person is, whether it's you or not, stand up and don't bother others.
Everyone's thoughts are tightly wrapped into a rope, and every time something happens, it's like that. No one will voluntarily come forward for themselves and for the relief of their current situation.
Those who once dared to do so are now stripped naked and kneeling there in shame.
It's just that everyone underestimates how far a person can go.
As soon as Bo Ling stood up, the whole riverbank was silent.
