Chapter 42: The slander of the old Tang clan
After sending off the guests in the clan hall, the clan elder surnamed Xun picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and then said: "Please come over to the elder of the Tang clan, I still need to understand this matter from him in person." ”
The old man surnamed Xun squinted his eyes and looked at the back of the departing attendant, but he didn't know what he was thinking.
After a while, the elder surnamed Tang came in from outside the door, and after saluting the elder of the Xun clan, he sat down on the seat next to him.
"Elder Tang Clan, what is the situation in Mu Chen?" the elder surnamed Xun asked lightly as he drank his tea.
"Alas, the elder of the Xun clan, Mu Chen first injured Lian Sheng's only son early this morning, and poured him with strong * joy medicine powder, and also instigated the people to spread the matter throughout the whole disaster, I was afraid that he would affect the funeral of the patriarch tomorrow, so I sent someone to temporarily grounded him, but this little guy not only injured my cousin, but also went to the ancestral hall and took away the treasure that was kept there!"
"Then where is he now?" the old man of the Xun clan didn't react much, and said so lightly.
"I heard from the tribal guard that he disappeared after leaving the tribal gate. ”
"Why did he hurt that Lian Sheng's only son? I heard that yesterday these two had a conflict in front of the patriarch Ling, according to his subordinates, but this Lian Sheng's son spoke disrespectfully in front of the spirit and was taught a lesson by Mu Chen, how could there be another conflict today?"
The elder surnamed Tang glanced at the elder of the Xun clan, knowing that the person in front of him was not so easy to fool, and secretly said in his heart that fortunately everyone had been prepared, so he said eloquently: "According to more than a dozen people in the ancestral hall this morning, after Lian Sheng arrived this morning, he severely reprimanded Lian Yu for his disrespect in the ancestral hall yesterday, and Lian Yu went to the patriarch's spirit to ask for guilt, and then met Mu Chen. Mu Chen's anger was not dissipated because of yesterday's incident, and the two young men had a quarrel with each other, as a result, Mu Chen injured the person and forcibly fed the strong acacia powder. ”
"So the dozen or so people on the spot can testify about this?" asked the old man of the Xun clan.
"Exactly. ”
"Gu Yun's girl was also there at that time, right?" asked the clan elder again.
At that time, Gu Wan happened to go to breakfast and was not present. Just ......"
"Oh? just what?"
"It's just that Gu Yun's girl was seen after breakfast and I sent someone to take down Mu Chen, the old man of the Xun clan, you also know that she and Mu Chen have had a good relationship since childhood, plus Lian Yu was so disrespectful in front of the spirit yesterday, the little girl's words will inevitably excuse Mu Chen. ”
"Let's go, follow me to the mourning hall. The Xun clan stood up, pointed to the door, and said to the elder of the Tang clan.
"Yes. The elder of the Tang clan followed behind the elder surnamed Xun, but he glanced at the person behind him before going out.
In the mourning hall, the old man surnamed Xun had already arrived in front of Gu Ling Ling at this time, and after the incense worship was finished, he turned around and asked Gu Yun, who had stopped talking when he came in: "Yun'er, what's going on with that kid from the Muye family today?"
"Elder Xun clan, Brother Mu Chen was kidnapped by the elder of the Tang clan!" Gu Wan hurriedly stood up and pointed at the elder of the Tang clan and said.
"Oh, why did the elder of the Tang clan want to tie up Mu Chen, you were present at the time?" asked the elder surnamed Xun.
"Wan'er was naturally there. Early this morning, Brother Mu Chen came to worship and learned the news of Uncle Muye's disappearance, and at this time, that Lian Yu appeared in the mourning hall, not only made insulting remarks to Uncle Muye, but also insulted my grandfather, and used despicable and obscene language to provoke Brother Mu Chen. Brother Mu Chen was angry and injured his yang root, and also searched for medicine from him and poured it into his mouth. Later, Lian Yu's father, the patriarch of Lian Sheng, and the elder of the Tang clan came to the mourning hall, and the elder of the Tang clan actually kidnapped Brother Mu Chen in order to tie up Lian Sheng, who had already entered the realm of transformation. Wan'er just heard that you have come back, and I am about to go to find the old man of the Xun clan and my uncle, and ask you to make decisions for Brother Mu Chen!"
"Was there anyone present in the mourning hall at that time?" the elder of the Xun clan glanced at the elder of the Tang clan, and then asked Gu Yun.
"The old Xun clan, there are not many people in the early morning, but there are more than a dozen people present. They should be able to testify. Gu Wan nodded firmly.
"Come, go and invite the people who are here early in the morning to witness the whole process. The old man of the Xun clan said lightly.
"Elder Xun, I have already sent someone to invite you, wait a while, the person should arrive in a while. The elder of the Tang clan smiled and said softly.
The elder surnamed Xun turned his head, looked at the elder of the Tang clan meaningfully, and then said slowly: "I didn't expect the elder of the Tang clan to be really thoughtful. ”
It's just a cup of tea, and someone has already followed the guards into the mourning hall.
"Meet the elders of the Xun clan, meet the elders of the Tang clan. Several people walked into the mourning hall and saluted the two of them one by one.
The clan elder surnamed Xun didn't have the slightest politeness, and asked directly to the point: "What was the conflict between Mu Chen and Lian Yu of the Bifang tribe in the early morning?"
"Elder of the Yu Xun clan, this matter should just be a battle of will between the teenagers, that Lian Yu seems to have some thoughts about Young Master Mu Chen's cousin, Young Master Mu Chen is displeased, so he taught Young Master Lian Yu a lesson, but it's just ......"
"Just what?" asked the clan elder surnamed Xun.
"It's just that this Young Master Mu Chen is a little ruthless, not to mention hurting Yang Gen, he also fed people the strong acacia powder, a whole big bag!"
"You're spewing blood! It's not like that, you're ......," Gu Yun couldn't help but scold.
It's just that as soon as he said the general, the elder of the Tang clan interrupted Gu Yun's words and said, "Yun'er, you have something to say later." Then he turned to the man and continued, "You go on. ”
"Later, the elder of the Tang clan took the patriarch of Lian Sheng to the mourning hall to worship, and after reprimanding the young master of Mu Chen, the young master of Mu Chen made a disrespectful speech, and also scolded the patriarch of Lian Sheng and the elder of the Tang clan, and the old man of the Tang clan was afraid of colliding with the ancient Ling clan Chang'an in front of the spirit, so he sent someone to take down the young master of Mu Chen first......"
......
Mu Chen didn't know at this time that in the mourning hall where the calamity was insufficient, the wicked man surnamed Tang sued first, and actually turned the matter upside down, and even beat him upside down. At this moment, he had just left the heavenly coffin, and was standing on the black soil on the edge of the evil swamp.
The black soil under his feet had obvious traces of being turned over, and the old man had disappeared at this moment, and beside Mu Chen was a one-zhang tall bamboo artemisia.
He leaned over to the bamboo wormwood and asked, "Old man, are you ready, you are ready to shout, if you are not ready, you shout twice, if you regret and want to come out, you shout three times, I will dig you out immediately!"
"Woo......" There was a sound from the bamboo artemisia.
"Old gentleman, you go all the way, I promise you, when I am successful in cultivation, I will take your body to the Wuji Sect in the Ten Thousand Dao Alliance in the East Pole Mountain Range to bring back the one you used to be!"
After Mu Chen finished speaking, he took out the dagger and made a cut on his fingertips, and the blood dripped down the bamboo artemisia, which was the corpse control technique recorded in the other scroll.
After doing this, Mu Chen took a pot of boiling water and slowly poured it towards the bamboo artemisia, and after a while, boiling water flowed back into the bamboo artemisia.
"Click!" Mu Chen cut off the bamboo artemisia, the incision was flush with the ground, and then bowed deeply to the ground, and said softly: "The old gentleman has gone all the way! After seven seven and forty-nine hours, I will ask you to unearth it!"
After speaking, he looked at the time, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Presumably the elders of the clan have returned, the elders of the Tang clan, I am going to come to you to settle accounts." ”
