The status of the Yan Shi Elder on the West Mountain is second only to the derivation.

Now that the derivation is dead, no one will refute what is said under normal circumstances.

Floating leaves don't care about that. If he thinks it's inappropriate, he will stick to it.

Fusheng Ye stepped forward from his seat and said to Yan Shi: "At this time, the bones of the derivative elder are not cold, and the murderer is still at large. Let's discuss how to deal with the aftermath of the derivative elders! Twin Peaks belong to the Moon God Temple, regardless of Dongshan Mountain, and if something like this happens, it is appropriate to discuss it with several elders of Dongshan before making a decision. ”

Yan Xi sat down, and several elders, including Yan Chong, also nodded in agreement with Fushengye's words.

When Elder Yan saw that the matter had come to this, he had no choice but to follow the advice of the floating leaves.

After the news of the assassination of the derivative elder on the night of the Lantern Festival spread, the people on the Twin Peaks panicked.

The Eight Great Elders of the East Mountain immediately held a meeting with the Eight Great Elders of the West Mountain in the main hall of the Moon God Temple.

His Royal Highness the eldest prince Mo Kemo and Princess Aya were invited to the back hall to listen. In the main hall, a group of female disciples such as Lan Lanye, Yi Na, Lu Yaoyi, and Jiang Yufei were also ordered to come to the main hall to listen to the content of the council.

The council first explained to everyone the process of the killing of the derivative elder, and then set a date to prepare to send the derivative elder to the altar at the top of the East Mountain for burial.

Later, the Elders entrusted Floating Leaf with the responsibility of apprehending the Assassins, considering that Floating Leaf might have fought with the Assassins on the night of his death. The real culprit will be ascertained within three days and the real culprit will be apprehended.

The third thing is to discuss who will succeed the head of the adjudication department.

He can be the judge of the division part-time. As soon as his words came out, they were opposed by the elders.

Yan Xi had to retreat to the next best, saying that he could give up the position of the master of the martial arts hall and be the head of the adjudication department full-time.

He thinks that then there will be no objection.

Elder Ke Yanzhong asked everyone in a tone that was not painful or itchy, who should take the vacated position of the hall master of the martial arts hall.

Everyone looked at each other, and there was no suitable candidate for a while. Elder Yan kindly recommended the floating leaf to serve as the master of the martial arts hall.

Fusheng Ye shirked, "I only want to capture the assassin now to avenge the derivative elder. I don't care about it, I'm afraid I can't handle the position of the master of the martial arts hall. ”

Seeing that the Eight Great Elders of Xishan had been unable to make a decision for the first seat of the Adjudication Division for a long time, Grand Elder Gesang Yuzhen slapped the table and said, "Now is not the time to grind and chirp, Elder Yanshi's virtue is obvious to all. I don't think anyone will object to him taking over as the head of the adjudication division. However, the position of the master of the martial arts hall is also very important. The martial arts hall is really inseparable from the Yan Shi Elders! Then it's better for Elder Yanzhong to temporarily act as the head of the adjudication division! What do you think? ”

Everyone was quite satisfied with Grand Elder Gesang Yuzhen's arrangement. Although Elder Yanzhong is usually not strict with his subordinates, he is very good at patting himself in front of the elders. Therefore, the elders of the East Mountain and the West Mountain have a good impression of Yanzhong.

Gesang Yuzhen saw that no one took the lead in expressing her position, so she asked Yan Shi directly: "What does Elder Yan Shi think?" ”

Yan Yan said with a dark face when he heard this: "Elder Yan Zhong has been the presiding officer of Wenxuan Pavilion for a long time, he doesn't know martial arts, so I'm afraid it's not suitable to serve as the head of the Adjudication Division!" ”

Gesang Yuzhen said: "It's not for him to fight." The first seat of the adjudication department is to be able to administer justice for all matters in the West Mountain. I think Elder Yan is honest and upright, and he can take on this heavy responsibility. ”

Seeing that Elder Yanzhong bowed his head and was silent, everyone guessed that he was afraid of Elder Yanshi, so they all looked at Yanshi.

Seeing that he had become the target of public criticism, Elder Yan Shi said angrily, "What do you think I am doing? If you ask him if he is willing to be the head of the Judgment Division, let him go! I'm afraid he can't leave Wenxuan Pavilion! How comfortable it is to stay in Wenxuan Pavilion! There's nothing to do every day except reading books and drinking tea, right? ”

After the incarnation of the "manager", he was worried all the time, fearing that once his identity was revealed, he would die without a place to bury.

Although Wenxuan Pavilion was leisurely, it was full of disciples who were familiar with Yanzhong. The head of the adjudication department is the head of Xishan, and he can live in seclusion as much as possible in ordinary times, and this position has a lot of power, and he can also mobilize all the resources of Xishan at will.

On weekdays, the daily affairs of the adjudication department are responsible for investigating and collecting evidence and making judgments on the violators on the West Mountain. I haven't heard of anyone who dares to privately investigate the head of the adjudication division.

The "manager" thought that he could be the head of the adjudication department, but it was not a cry for wind and rain in Xishan, leisurely and leisurely.

Thinking of this, the "manager" slowly got up from his seat, saluted Gesang Yuzhen and said, "Thank you for the trust of the Great Elder." Derivative Elder is the person I admire the most in my life. His sudden murder was painful to me. If this damn assassin is caught by me, he will be put to death. In order to carry on the legacy of the Derivative Elders, I am willing to temporarily assume the position of Chief of the Adjudication Division. ”

Everyone felt unbelievable when they saw that Elder Yanzhong, who had never been happy to come out, actually agreed to be the head of the Adjudication Division.

Gesang Yuzhen said: "Okay! Then it's decided. The position presided over by your Wenxuan Pavilion will be succeeded by Fushengye, right? Anyway, it was an idle job, and it didn't prevent him from arresting the assassins. ”

At the end of the meeting, Elder Yan Shi found nothing, and he went back to the martial arts hall in a sullen manner.

One by one, the elders dispersed. The elder Yanzhong, disguised as the "manager", followed the footsteps of the elders of the West Mountain and returned to the residence.

Soon a disciple from the Adjudication Division came to ask him to come over and take over his duties. There are a lot of things to deal with every day in the head of the adjudication department, so the "manager" will have to be busy if he wants to get mixed up.

Two days later, the body of the derivative elder was sent to the altar at the top of the East Mountain for a celestial burial.

The so-called sky burial is a funeral method advocated by people in the snowy region.

It is an ancient belief for the devotees of the Temple of the Moon as a way to express condolences for the deceased.

The people of the Snowy Lands believe that the soul is immortal and reincarnated. After death, the immortal soul leaves its old body and ascends to heaven. If he wants to get his body closer to his soul, then he can only give his body to the goshawk soaring in the sky.

After the funeral ceremony for the derivation, the floating leaves returned to the site of the fire in the West Mountain Stables exhausted.

In order to arrest the Assassin, he had not closed his eyes for two days and two nights.

He was sleepy and could fall asleep when he walked.

As the fire site was cleared, a charred body of Borchi was found in a hut next to the stables, and a burnt inhuman-shaped body was later sorted out from the ashes of a hay pile.

After investigation, no one was missing in the outer courtyard of the West Mountain, except for Borchi, so everyone unanimously speculated that the body found in the ashes of the hay pile was the assassin that night.

The elders of the West Mountain also agreed with the conclusion made by the new Chief of the Adjudication Division about the corpse. Elder Yanzhong believed that the Assassin was there

After the assassination failed, he returned to the fire and committed suicide.

He further theorized that the Assassin had encountered the Elder Derivation before committing suicide, so he may have killed the Elder for fear that the Elder Derivation would recognize him.

About this inference floating leaves are the first to disagree. He retorted to the Adjudicator Monk stationed at the remnants of the fire: "Why did the Assassin kill the Derivative Elder when he was already determined to commit suicide, could it be that he was addicted to murder?" ”

The monk of the Inquisition Division replied: "The Assassin has met with the Derivative Elder, and he may be afraid that the Derivation will recognize him!" ”

Fushengye said: "There is no one missing on the West Mountain except Borchi. This proves that the burned body is not from Xishan. How could a derivative elder know an assassin from a mountain? ”

The referee said, "Couldn't the Assassins be the ones who came to the Western Mountain?" If he had never been to the West Mountain, he would not be familiar with the West Mountain at all, and how could he carry out the assassination. If he had been to the West Mountain, would it be possible for him to get to know the derivative elders? ”

Floating Leaf was refuted by the Monk of the Adjudicator's speechless reply. He said to the adjudicator, "Stay by while I'll walk around the fire." ”

The adjudicator said, "Elder Serious has asked you to say that since the assassin has been found, the case can be closed." ”

Fushengye said angrily, "Who said the assassin was found? It's just a charred corpse, I can't just leave it at that. ”

Seeing that the ruling priest was helpless, Fushengye shook his head and flashed aside.

In the past two days, Huaxin has sent a large number of letter rats to monitor the entire Xishan in all directions, and has not found any clues of assassins.

Fushengye muttered to himself, "I don't believe you can fly to the sky." Unless you're really dead. ”

He rummaged through the ashes of the hay heap where the corpse had been found, and finally found a dagger.

Floating Leaf wiped the carbon black off the dagger with his cuffs, and he recognized it as a combat dagger commonly used by his teammates in the training camp. This dagger is made of special steel, and the Mangyuan tribe does not have this kind of technology at all.

Fushengye carefully wrapped the dagger in a white cloth and put it into his sleeve.

At this time, Huaxin came to him and told him that Jiang Yufei had sent a letter.

Fushengye opened the letter and saw that it was Jiang Yufei who asked him to have tea with an old friend tonight.

After reading the letter, Fushengye knew that this was Chen Wen's agreement to meet him.

He stuffed the letter into his cuff and said to Huaxin, "Go home!" I'm hungry, get me something to eat! ”

Huaxin said happily when he heard this: "What the master wants to eat, I will make it for you." ”

The floating leaf took the arm of the painting heart and left. How could he let a man without hands do anything for himself?

He suddenly changed his mind and said to Huaxin: "Let's go to Su Mo's father's house to eat!" Didn't Su Mo come back? ”

Huaxin said: "Su Mo has been waiting for your dispatch at home for the past two days. ”

Fushengye said: "Did Su Mo's mother cut some of them?" ”s

Huaxin shook his head sadly: "I'm afraid there won't be much time!" ”

Fushengye sighed, "Let's go and have a look!" Don't bother Su Mo these days, let him spend time with his mother at home. ”

Huaxin and Fushengye walked for a while, and happened to meet Su Mo's father returning from collecting medicine.

Fushengye hurriedly unloaded Su Mo's father's medicine basket and carried it on his shoulder.

Seeing that Fushengye really respected him as an elder, Su Mo's father had nowhere to put his excited hands.

Huaxin has long regarded Su Mo's father as a relative, and she comforted the old man with her elbow and said, "Let's go, I haven't eaten with you for a long time." ”

Father Su Mo cried with joy: "Let's go, go home, there are a few rare spices in the medicine I just picked, which have a unique taste for stewed mutton." This is my unique skill, and I make sure you eat this meal and think about the next meal! ”

Fushengye followed Su Mo's father with great interest. He could see that Su Mo's father had aged a lot recently.
