Chapter 58: The Conspiracy Revealed
"I'm going to kill you brutes!" Xiaoqing, who knew the truth, suddenly became furious, her body arched suddenly, and in a blink of an eye, she turned into a snake, and her eyes became red.
"Ahh Ding Wei fell to the ground in fright.
"Amitabha, don't panic." Huiyuan helped him up with a calm face.
Ding Wei gasped and said, "National Teacher, quickly get rid of this demon for me!" ”
"It's you who die!" Xiao Qing's demonic aura suddenly erupted, and a long sword condensed by water vapor appeared in his hand.
"Don't struggle uselessly, you can't get out of the cage!"
With a soft "chirp", Xiaoqing's long sword slashed on the railing of the iron cage, and it was instantly extinguished like fireworks.
"What's going on?" Xiaoqing was shocked, not believing the facts in front of her.
"The fault is that you shouldn't drink Xiangye's glass of wine." Hui Yuan had a treacherous expression on his face. "Because the poor monk added something to the wine."
"Despicable, he actually poisoned me and plotted against me!"
"Don't say that, in order to deal with you, the poor monk has put a lot of effort into preparing Lethe flowers for you, and also adding the leaves of the Keo Immortal Mountain, these two things are rare." Hui Yuanyin smiled and said, "The Lethe River Flower Liquid can quickly dissipate the True Qi in your body, and the Leaf Juice can paralyze the meridians in your body. If you drink this cup of poisonous wine, even if I don't kill you, you will immediately change back to your original form, and you will never be able to return to your human form again. ”
Xiao Qing was shocked, and hurriedly mobilized the true qi in his body, and found that it was really as he said, and the true qi was losing uncontrollably. She sat down cross-legged, trying to retain what little True Qi was left in her body.
Huiyuan sighed: "It's useless, the more impatient you are, the faster the true qi in your body will evaporate." ”
"Phew!" Xiaoqing spat at Huiyuan, but he dodged it.
"This demon dares to be arrogant when he reaches such a realm, the national teacher quickly kills him!" Ding Wei was afraid that the night would be long and he would dream too much.
"She's worse than a dog now, even a child can kill her with a knife." Huiyuan folded his palms and recited the Buddha's name and said, "The poor monk is a monk, and he must not break the vows, so he has to recite a few more scriptures for you, so that you can have a good position in the asura realm after you go to the Yellow Spring." ”
"The heart of a national teacher is a bodhisattva, which is really moving. I won't bother you with this kind of trivial matter, the old man will do it for you! Ding Wei smiled and took out a sharp knife from his sleeve and walked straight towards Xiaoqing in the iron cage.
"You two bastards, the old lady will not let you go even if she becomes a ghost!"
Xiaoqing fell to the ground and cried bitterly, her whole body was broken, and she felt that her hope had been shattered.
"Alas, do you really have no royal law?" Suddenly, a man spoke overhead.
"Who?" Huiyuan and Ding Wei were startled.
A middle-aged man jumped down from the top, and he arched his hand and said, "The villain meets the prime minister." ”
Ding Wei was covered in cold sweat, he didn't expect that someone would hide in the mansion and secretly observe him.
"Who are you?" After all, he has been an official for many years, and Ding Wei saw that he broke into the Prime Minister's Mansion alone, and immediately calmed down.
The middle-aged man was neither humble nor arrogant and said: "The villain Wang Mi, the five-rank guard with a knife." ”
"Impossible, the old man hasn't seen you in Kaifeng Mansion and the forbidden army!"
"It's reasonable for adults to live in the high hall for a long time and not recognize villains." Yang Mi smiled and said: "Although the villain belongs to the forbidden army, he is the emperor's personal guard, and he is responsible for secretly investigating the words and deeds of hundreds of officials. ”
gall bladder
"What?" Ding Wei screamed: "Someone! ”
The guards outside the gate swarmed in, ready to capture Yang Mi on the spot.
Yang Mi's face changed suddenly, he took out the token given by the emperor from his arms and said loudly: "The lower official is ordered to investigate and deal with the misdeeds of the traitorous minister Ding Wei, and you are not afraid of the nine clans if you wait for the abuse?" ”
"Wow!" The soldiers all discarded their weapons and knelt down.
Ding Wei suddenly knew that the general trend had gone, his body trembled, and then he said unwillingly: "The saint is deceived by the villain, and I am wronged!" ”
"yes, I don't think so." Another male voice rang out, and another man fell from the roof.
"Qi Lu! Are you also the personal protector of the Holy One? Ding Wei couldn't believe his eyes.
"My lord has lifted me up, but I'm just a grass farmer below." Qi Lu grinned and said, "It is precisely because of his humble status that he offended Long Yan when he sneaked into the palace this morning to admonish. ”
Ding Wei was stunned for a long time, and said in a lost voice: "Can you enter the palace?" You, what are you doing in the palace? ”
"What else can you do, of course, is to expose your crimes."
"Blood spews people, the old man is loyal to the saint!"
"What a world to learn from!" Qi Lu said in a deep voice: "You deceived the monarch and pretended to be a descendant of the immortal Ding Lingwei; Is colluding with the eunuch Lei Yungong and framing a loyal person like Lord Kou Zhun also a loyal act to the emperor? ”
"How do you know?" Ding Wei did these things extremely secretively, and he never dreamed that an ordinary person would know so clearly.
Qi Lu smiled slightly, but did not answer his question. In the 21st century, anyone who has studied history a little knows the bad things that the wicked and cunning Ding Wei did when he was an official. Qi Lu just used these records in black and white to come to Song Zhenzong one by one.
Huiyuan was shocked when he was listening, and he turned around and wanted to slip away when everyone was not checking.
"Master, where do you want to go?"
Huiyuan only felt dazzled, and Lao Wu had ghostly blocked his way.
"Master, don't be in a hurry. What Lord Ding has done, but you have half of the credit. ”
"It's over, it's all over!" Ding Wei fell to the ground, his body completely paralyzed, soft as a puddle of mud.
"Amitabha!" Huiyuan smiled faintly, at this time, he was actually calm.
Qi Lu let out a long sigh and said, "I really don't understand, how did Fahai teach you such a black-hearted apprentice with a thicker skin than the city wall. ”
"I alone bear the sins of the little monk, why should the Qi benefactor slander the family teacher."
"Indeed, although the old monk Fahai is stubborn, he is still a generation of monks, but you are a scum of Buddhism."
"Good and evil are impermanent, and the little monk just does what he wants."
Qi Lu sighed again and said, "If you go along with it, the court will be treacherous." ”
"The little monk doesn't have much interest in officialdom." Huiyuan's voice was still cold, and he couldn't hear any emotion. "Little monk is just wondering, my plan is so thorough, why can you see the flaws?"
"Do you remember when I first entered the Prime Minister's Mansion and said that there were monsters in the mansion?"
"You're saying that I strenuously denied that there were youkai and aroused your suspicions?"
"No, I hadn't seen through you at that time." Qi Lu said slowly: "I just instinctively determined that there were monsters in the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”
"In this way, Sister-in-law Cen that you have long recognized is a snake demon."
"Yes, though, out of suspicion, I didn't reveal her identity on the spot." Qi Lu continued: "What's even more strange to me is that Fahai has a deep relationship with the Qingbai Second Snake, and you are his senior disciple, how could you not recognize her?" This is so counterintuitive. ”
"Alas, the little monk is not as smart as the benefactor, and it is natural that the scheme is exposed."
"No, you're just too smart!" Qi Lu said sharply: "Your mistake is that you just hid Xu Shilin. Xiaoqing is good at hiding demonic energy, after you ventilate the news, it is naturally difficult for ordinary mages to find out that she is a monster, but Xu Shilin is different, anyone who knows a little about magic knows that he is the descendant of a demon. ”
"There is no loophole in this matter itself, how did you see through it?"
"Because there is one thing you don't know, and that is that I know the details of the green and white snakes very well. When I didn't see the child in the house, I immediately knew that someone had hidden him, and this person also knew the origin of the green and white snakes very well, so you were the most suspicious. ”
"Well, I should have thought of it a long time ago, but I still despised you." The corners of Huiyuan's mouth suddenly showed a very strange smile. "If we lose, we will naturally accept the punishment of the king's law. But what does the Holy Lord want to do with this monster? ”
"The Holy One is merciful, and he can't bear to hurt her life." Yang Mi stepped forward and said, "Huiyuan, the Holy Lord allows you to detain her and Bai Suzhen in the Leifeng Pagoda together, so as not to harm living beings in the future." ”
"Hahahaha!" Huiyuan laughed wildly and said, "Let their sisters reunite, the poor monk doesn't want to see it." There are only two ways for youkai to end, either use it for me or die! ”
"Huiyuan, don't be obsessed!" Qi Lu didn't expect Huiyuan's heart to be so vicious.
"Hahahaha!" Xiaoqing in the cage also laughed wildly, and the demonic energy in her whole body was bursting out unlimitedly.
"This is impossible, at this time your demonic energy should all be dispersed!" Huiyuan was shocked.
"Well, it seems that you don't know her as well as I do." Qi Lu shook his head and sighed, "She and the White Snake are not real monsters, but the descendants of the Nuwa clan, and your indiscriminate poison can't control her." ”
"Lord Qi is really good at laughing." Huiyuan didn't believe Qi Lu's words.
"He's right!" Xiao Qing's eyes were full of blue light, and her hands were raised suddenly, and a deafening thunder sounded in the room, and the iron cage that imprisoned her was blown to pieces! In the dust and smoke of the room, Xiaoqing flew over, and a chain shot out of her hand and hit Huiyuan!
In the darkness, the golden light flashed, and Qi Lu's sword blocked in front of Huiyuan.
"What, you're not a mortal! Who are you? Xiao Qing's eyes lit up, and he recognized his origin from the golden rainbow sword in Qi Lu's hand.
"It doesn't matter who I am." As he spoke, Qi Lu used his sword to defuse another attack from Xiaoqing. "Huiyuan is deeply guilty, and he has his own human law to punish him, and you don't need to do it yourself."
Qi Lu didn't feel pity for Huiyuan, but he suddenly understood that he couldn't change the trajectory of history without authorization, otherwise it would lead to a series of consequences that he couldn't predict.
"Hahahaha!" In the midst of wild laughter, Xiaoqing roared loudly: "Do you think I just want to kill him, to tell you the truth, everyone here will die!" ”
Xiaoqing has been in the red dust for more than a thousand years, and I don't know how many deceitful people she has seen, but she doesn't have a good impression of human beings like Bai Suzhen. She also strongly opposed her sister's relationship with Xu Xian, and then Fahai's interference and Xu Xian's betrayal made her lose confidence in human beings.
Now, the conspiracy of Huiyuan and Ding Wei to frame her makes her even more angry, and at this moment the fierce light in her eyes is revealed, vowing to kill to vent the resentment in her heart!
