Chapter 045: Incident
Mu Shuning glanced at him suspiciously, he didn't have much communication with Ye Bai before, when he was fifteen years old, he entered the Taixu Secret Realm once and was rescued by Ye Bai, and the two of them had no contact, and the martial arts competition a few days ago was just the second meeting between the two of them.
It cannot be denied that Ye Bai is a self-acquaintance, and Mu Shuning is the most powerless to resist this kind of person.
Ye Bai asked him out for a drink, and he happened to take this opportunity to come out to relax, if he could really make a friend who was distracted, it would be a good result.
Ye Bai led Mu Shuning into a tavern, he greeted the boss familiarly, and asked for a few jars of wine by the way. When the boss saw Ye Bai's posture, he smiled, and he eagerly sent a plate of spiced peanuts and beans to eat.
Mu Shuning saw that Ye Bai was very familiar with the boss, and he was puzzled. The Star Gate was obviously in the northeast of the Haoyue Continent, and the Quiet Dome Mountain was in the south-central direction, how could Ye Bai be familiar with the owner of the tavern in the small city at the foot of the Quiet Dome Mountain?
Ye Bai seemed to see Mu Shuning's doubts, and smiled: "My master doesn't look at me very strictly, I usually like to go around everywhere, and the most I come is from the south, so I rarely go back to Xingshumen." ”
Mu Shuning didn't think much about it, but she was also a little envious of Ye Bai's life.
Ye Bai slapped the mud seal on the wine jar with one hand, handed it directly to Mu Shuning, and asked, "How about the amount of wine?" ”
Mu Shuning smiled embarrassedly: "It's okay." ”
Ye Bai looked at him and directly raised his head and poured wine: "Mu Shuning, sometimes I really envy you." ”
Mu Shuning wondered in his heart, he still envied Ye Bai's life just now, why did Ye Bai envy him again now?
Mu Shuning took a small sip of wine and didn't answer, he knew that this was the most suitable time for Ye Bai to confide.
Ye Bai said: "Do you know why I like the turn of the world, the south and the north? ”
"Why?"
"Because I don't dare to go back to the sect."
Mu Shuning was stunned: "What's the matter?" ”
Ye Bai shook his head and said no more.
Mu Shuning looked at Ye Bai, it was the first time he looked at this "friend" he didn't know very well. Ye Bai's appearance is not very pleasing, a pair of narrow eyes, the tails of the eyes are raised, and when he squints, it gives people a feeling that he is very scheming.
"Your master treats you badly?"
Ye Bai still shook his head.
The atmosphere fell into an embarrassing situation, and Mu Shuning directly drank the remaining small half of the altar into it.
The wine jar is not large, the size of two palms of adults together, but this wine is very strong, with a mellow aroma and heavy wine smell from the mouth all the way into the stomach pouch, the whole body seems to burn, extremely warm.
"Mu Shuning, what do you think...... How's your brother? ”
"My senior brother?" Mu Shuning slapped open the mud seal by himself this time, took a sip and said, "My senior brother, he has no edges and corners, he is too gentle and too soft, if it weren't for the master covering him, there is a name of the head disciple of the Silent Dome on him, with his temperament, I am afraid that he will be bullied by others." ”
Ye Bai suddenly stopped drinking and looked at him with a little surprise.
Mu Shuning was puzzled: "What's wrong?" ”
"It's okay, you go on."
Mu Shuning felt that there was something wrong with Ye Bai's attitude, and after thinking back to what he had just said, there was nothing wrong with it, so he continued.
"But fortunately, Senior Brother is fighting for his own strength, except for the elders, his strength is almost ranked first in the Silent Firmament, which saves people from disagreeing to challenge his position."
"What do you think of your senior brother to you?"
"That's good."
Mu Shuning's amount of alcohol can really only be described as okay, two jars and half a belly, and the person who was still talking disappeared in an instant, and slammed on the table with a "bang" face down.
Ye Bai's face was as usual, he stood up, patted Mu Shuning's face, and called him softly.
Mu Shuning was very good, he just fell asleep after getting drunk, without any movement, and now he was sleeping deeply, Ye Bai's shouting couldn't wake him up at all.
Ye Bai picked up Mu Shuning, walked to the small inn upstairs of the tavern, and said as he walked: "Mu Shuning, I'm sorry." ”
-
When he woke up the next day, Mu Shuning had a splitting headache, and he wished that anything was ghosted.
He forced himself to sit up, rubbed his brow, and found himself in an inn, and he was the only one in the room. Mu Shuning didn't break it, he still remembered that he was drinking with Ye Bai yesterday, and they all talked a lot about their hearts, but he got drunk himself.
Mu Shuning reluctantly stood up, and suddenly thought that he didn't even say a word to his master and went down the mountain without going back, although Jing Qiong's control over his disciples was not very strict, but if he couldn't come back on the day of going down the mountain, he had to report it, and a person like him who didn't return at night was really guilty of Jing Qiong's big taboo.
Mu Shuning didn't care if he had a headache or not, and he couldn't remember Ye Bai like this, so he directly used his spiritual power to transform thousands of miles and returned to Jingqiong Mountain.
But when he returned to the Silent Vault, he inexplicably found that all the disciples were not looking at him quite right.
Mu Shuning's heart suddenly "popped", and her eyelids jumped suddenly.
He casually stopped a disciple: "What happened in the sect?" ”
The little disciple was pulled by the corner of his clothes at first glance, his body was obviously stiff, and he looked at him with wide eyes, as if he was looking at some scourge, desperately struggling out.
Mu Shuning was patient: "I am Mu Shuning, I won't harm you, can you tell me what happened in the sect?" ”
The disciple looked at him even more unkindly, and struggled to pull out the corner of his clothes that he was holding onto, as if Mu Shuning was some dirty thing.
Mu Shuning's eyes darkened, and he let go and stopped dragging the little disciple.
If the little disciple was amnesty, he didn't even understand the most basic politeness, and stumbled away.
Mu Shuning turned his head to look in the direction of Wanjian Peak, thinking about returning to the mountain first and asking his master.
But before he could reach the range of Wanjian Peak, he was unguarded, and suddenly felt a bundle of immortal ropes falling from the sky, tying him up from beginning to end, and the rope was clean, and it was quite difficult to even move a finger.
Mu Shuning was full of doubts, lowered his head and wanted to use his spiritual power to break the bundle of immortal ropes, but he didn't expect that this bundle of immortal ropes was actually the highest grade, which could instantly block people's spiritual power, making a cultivator like a mortal in the shortest possible time.
The ropes became tighter and tighter, and in some places the flesh was tightly squeezed.
"Mu Shuning, do you know what's wrong?" Tao Qingze's voice came from far and near, and when he walked in front of Mu Shuning at this moment, Mu Shuning lowered his head and happened to see Tao Qingze's black boots.
Mu Shuning was at a loss, he thought that he just went down the mountain to drink wine yesterday without reporting, why did he still move the uncle of Lao Tao to go out so much, and he also used a bundle of immortal ropes.
Mu Shuning pondered for a while and said: "The disciple met with his friend yesterday, and he happened to be in the mood, so he drank a few more glasses, the disciple was not good at drinking, and he was drunk directly, and he woke up this morning and hurried back, and it is not clear what happened." ”
Tao Qingze's face looked down at him, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Sharp teeth." ”
Mu Shuning barely raised his head, only to see Tao Qingze's smile, that smile was alienated and cold, which startled him. In Mu Shuning's memory, his impression of Tao Qingze is still very good, when he first came to Jingqiong Mountain, Yan Qingshi sent him to Xuyang Peak again, during that time, he was with Tao Qingze for most of the time, and Tao Qingze also taught him a lot of things. Tao Qingze can be regarded as half a master for him.
Mu Shuning raised his head with great effort and shouted, "Senior uncle, can I meet my master?" ”
Tao Qingze dragged Mu Shuning up from the ground, detained him, and said, "I'll take you to see him." ”
The Cardinal Hall is the main council hall on the Silent Dome Mountain, and once you pass the gate between the outer gate and the inner gate, you can walk up to a large square, and at the end of this large square is the magnificent Cardinal Hall.
The major decision-making discussions and some important matters meetings within the sect are all carried out here, and most of them are usually the office of the head of the sect, but Yan Qingshi rarely goes to the Cardinal Hall now, and most of them solve things on Wanjian Peak.
At this time, Mu Shuning was pressed by Tao Qingze to go to the Cardinal Palace, and his heart was not very calm along the way.
Many disciples in the sect looked at him with respect and fear, but now, they were all full of contempt and disdain.
Before he entered the cardinal hall, he heard Xiao Qingyu's shout coming from inside: "What do you all mean by this?" If something is lost, you can't take care of it, so why should you dump the pot on someone else? What's more, what evidence do you have to prove that Shu Ning took the things? You are not ashamed to let others carry the black pot for you one by one? ”
It seems that it will always be like this, when Mu Shuning sees her little uncle, she is always asking others aggressively, and it is always Mu Shuning who is maintained.
Tao Qingze didn't give Mu Shuning time to sigh at all, he picked up Mu Shuning's collar, brought a spiritual power, threw Mu Shuning inside, and said coldly: "Senior brother, I brought someone to you." ”
Mu Shuning knew who the "senior brother" in Tao Qingze's mouth was, he was full of joy, he was thrown like this, and he didn't care if he fell and hurt, he just looked up to find his master, subconsciously, he felt that as long as his master was there, everything could be explained.
It's pitiful, at this time, Mu Shuning still doesn't know what happened.
However, when Mu Shuning and Yan Qingshi's eyes met, Mu Shuning only felt as if a bucket of ice water had poured him from his feet to his feet, and his limbs and bones were soaked in ice, with frost and snow, which was difficult to melt.
Yan Qingshi looked at his apprentice who was helpless to fight back by the immortal rope like he looked at a stranger, and the rope was strangled into Mu Shu's flesh in some places, and the original white skin was bruised, and even cracked in some places, and the skin and flesh turned outward, and the slightest trace of bright red.
Yan Qingshi turned a blind eye, his back was straight, and he stepped down from the high platform step by step, and approached Mu Shuning step by step. Mu Shuning felt the powerful coercion that he had never felt before, and he only felt his scalp tingle for a moment.
"Master...... Master ......"
"Where did you go yesterday? What did you do? With whom? ”
The three short and powerful questions carried the majesty and oppression of the superiors, everyone present held their breath and was silent, even Xiao Qingyu, who seemed to have eaten gunpowder, was silent. Mu Shuning looked up at Shizun, who felt strange to him from beginning to end, and only knew that he kept repeating the title of "Shizun".
