Chapter 11: Black and White in the Temple of Heavenly Punishment (I)
Xiaohan Mountain, Heavenly Punishment Peak, Heavenly Punishment Palace
Heavenly Punishment Peak is not the main peak of Xiaohan Mountain, and it is not too conspicuous among the many peaks of Xiaohan Mountain, but it is definitely one of the places that Xiaohan Mountain cultivators are most reluctant to come to, because this is where the Xiaohan Mountain Discipline Hall is located. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although Xiaohanshan is a small sect, although the sparrow is small, the five organs are complete, in addition to the first seat of the five main peaks, there are four other halls and the five main peaks are level, these four halls are the precept hall, the hall of transmission and the hall of foreign affairs and the hall of main affairs.
The Foreign Affairs Hall is in charge of all external affairs of the sect, and the main hall is in charge of all the internal affairs of the sect, that is, one diplomacy and one logistics, the Discipline Hall is law enforcement, and the Gong Transmission Hall is the transmission of Gong, these four halls are the most standard equipment for any sect, each hall has one hall master, two deputy hall masters, the hall master is served by the Taishang Elder of Jin Dantian, and the deputy hall master is the inner door elder of Gangshatian.
Heavenly Punishment Peak is the location of the Discipline Hall, and the Heavenly Punishment Hall is the place where the disciples of the sect are interrogated, Wang Tong made a big fuss in Fanghefang City, and injured the two brothers of the Xu family, among which Xu Ming was seriously injured, and was directly beaten by Wang Tong with half of his face, and his brain was concussed, and he has not woken up yet, as for Xu Yang, although he is not injured, the injury is not light, because it is an internal injury, so he needs to slowly recuperate for a period of time, seeing that Wufeng Dabi is about to be, I don't know if it will be affected.
This matter is a bit of a big fuss, especially when it happens in Fanghefang City, a place directly controlled by the Xu family, for the Xu family, it feels a bit of a slap in the face, so the elders of the Xu family in Fang City want to stop Wang Tong on the spot.
However, Fang City is an open place, the Xu family is just a manager, and they can't cover the sky with one hand, there are people coming and going, all the cultivators of Xiaohan Mountain can enter, even Yunfeng is no exception, there was an inner door elder of Lian Yunfeng who was present at that time, of course, Wang Tong would not let Wang Tong suffer, so he stopped the elders of the Xu family, and the matter went to the precept hall.
Wang Tong is the first disciple of Lianyun Peak, among the many disciples of Xiaohan Mountain, his identity is second only to the true disciple, to put it bluntly, he is not a person without roots, it used to be because he himself is not angry, cowardly, and his cultivation is low, so no one looks down on him, and there is a lot of criticism among the sects, but criticism is just criticism, and it cannot reduce Wang Tong's identity, plus this matter is very sensitive, so today the precept hall is very lively, in addition to the parties, the master of the precept hall, the Taishang elder Wen Ce of the fourth heaven of Jindan is personally in charge, and the two deputy hall masters of the precept hall, Xu Ying and Xie Zi, the two inner door elders, have also arrived。
In terms of Lian Yunfeng, the first Wang Huai was even present in person, as well as three inner door elders, all of whom came to support Wang Tong.
As the party concerned, Wang Tong stood in the center of the hall, expressionless, Xu Yang stood beside him with a pale face, glaring at him with vicious eyes from time to time, but Wang Tong didn't even turn his head once, expressing his disregard and contempt for Xu Yang.
Wen Ce is a very serious person, both from the outside and from the heart, as the master of the Discipline Hall of a sect, justice is the most important requirement, he is a very fair person, it is precisely because of justice, so whether it is Lian Yunfeng attaches great importance to it, and the Xu family is very relaxed, after all, it is a fact that Wang Tong injured the Xu family brothers in Fanghefang City, so the status of the person from the Xu family today is not too high, and it is just an inner elder-level figure named Xu Lei, but this is not the most troublesome, the most troublesome thing is that Xu Ying, the deputy hall master of the Discipline Hall, is also a member of the Xu family, therefore, everyone is not very optimistic about Wang Tong's situation, even when he arrives in the Discipline Hall, it's just a matter of delaying time, Wang Tong will definitely be punished heavily.
Because the place of the incident is in Fang City, there are many witnesses, and even onlookers, so it is not difficult to find witnesses, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, the Xu family selected more than ten disciples and passers-by who have little to do with Xiaohan Mountain among all the witnesses, and brought them to the Heavenly Punishment Hall together.
After some inquiry, the matter became clear at a glance, from Wang Tong's appearance in Fanghefang City to the time Xu Yang was overturned, it was clearly placed in front of everyone, "Wang Tong, you disturbed Fang City, attacked the same door, and caused serious injuries, can you be guilty?"
Wang Tong raised his head and glanced at Wen Ce, the most impressive thing about this precept hall master was the two extremely obvious nasolabial folds, looking at him slightly pursed the corners of his mouth, gloomy gaze, Wang Tong had a feeling of being targeted by a falcon, took a deep breath, and forcibly pulled himself out of the momentum created by Wen Ce, just said lightly, " I didn't disturb Fang City, and I didn't attack the same door, causing serious injuries, but it was just an accident, it was a personal grudge between me and the Xu brothers, and private fights were not prohibited in the faction, but this time the place was chosen in Fanghefang City, how did it become an attack on the same door. ”
As a sect of cultivation, Xiaohanshan actually does not prohibit private fighting, in fact, any sect does not prohibit private fighting, but this kind of private fighting has another beautiful title, called martial arts, whether it is friendly competition between disciples, or resolving personal grievances, it can be achieved through martial arts, but this must have a premise, that is, under the condition that both parties agree, and there can be no death or abolition, that is to say, the competition must have a degree, and it cannot become a life-and-death struggle.
Wang Tong directly punched Xu Ming into a serious injury, which was irrefutable, so he simply confessed, but he did not admit the previous charges, disturbing the Fang City is a matter of local ruffians and hooligans, disturbing the Fang City for no reason is to cause trouble, according to the door rules are to be severely punished, the crime of attacking the same door is greater, different from private fighting, private fighting is a mutually agreeable behavior, attacking the same door is a unilateral act, private fighting is the default behavior in the sect, and even encourages this behavior, in order to motivate their own disciples, and at the same time enhance the combat experience, and attacking the same door, it is a taboo in any sect, once such a crime is confirmed, at least will be expelled from the division, the heavy responsibility was executed, so of course Wang Tong couldn't admit it. ”
"Personal grudges, private fights, Wang Tong, what you said is light, all the witnesses present can prove that you suddenly attacked Xu Ming, and you beat him to a serious injury with one punch, Xu Ming didn't even have time to react, isn't this an attack?"
Xu Ying's shrill sneer sounded in his ears, like the cry of a night owl.
Wang Tong glanced up at Xu Ying, suddenly laughed, turned his head to Wen Ce and said, "Hall Master Wen, this is the Discipline Hall, it is the most just place in Xiaohan Mountain, although Deputy Hall Master Xu is the deputy hall master of the Discipline Hall, he is related to this Xu family brother after all, so I think she should avoid this interrogation this time, or, at least, let her shut up, what do you think?"
"Wang Tong, you are so daring!!"
Wang Tong's words were really too polite, Xu Ying is the deputy hall master of the Discipline Hall, the elder of the inner gate, the cultivator of Gangshatian, a mortal little monk actually told her to shut up in front of so many people, where did this put her face?
Immediately, he shouted angrily, and as soon as he raised his hand, he pointed at Wang Tong, and suddenly, a thin chain shot out and wrapped around Wang Tong.
In the face of Xu Ying's attack, Wang Tong remained motionless, just sneered.
Qiang!!
When the chain was about to entangle Wang Tong, a sword light flashed, breaking the chain in two.
"Wang Huai, you ......!"
The chain was cut off, Xu Ying was immediately furious, this chain is a high-grade magic weapon, and it is also her personal weapon, which is extremely important to her, and it was not damaged when she was facing the enemy, but she didn't expect it to be cut off in her own territory.
But when she saw the person who made the move, she just shouted angrily, but she didn't dare to make a move, because it was Wang Huai who did it.
Wang Huai, who had been in a state of recuperation with his eyes closed from the beginning, finally opened his eyes, glanced at Wang Tong, and the look of surprise on his face flashed, and then he returned to the appearance of Gujing without waves.
"This is the Heavenly Punishment Hall of the Discipline Hall, it is the most just place in Xiaohan Mountain, even if you are the deputy hall master of the Discipline Hall, you must abide by the precepts, my apprentice is right, the person concerned has a close relationship with you, you are indeed not suitable to speak, in addition, you attacked my apprentice for no reason, I have written down this account." ”
"You ......!" Xu Ying's face turned red, Wang Huai really didn't give her face, but under Wen Ce's stern gaze, she swallowed the words that had rushed to her lips again.
Wen Ce's mood is not very good, and of course he will not be happy when he is reprimanded by others in front of his subordinates, but whether it is Wang Tong or Wang Huai, there is a "justice" in his words just now The two words, but it made him have nothing to say, Xu Ying is the person who was placed in the precept hall by the Xu family, and the person concerned is also a member of the Xu family, no matter what interest transmission relationship is behind this, the fairness on the surface must still be maintained, not to mention that Wang Huai is one of the first seats of the five peaks, neither his identity nor status is worse than his own, if he is allowed to catch the handle in this matter, the next thing will be difficult to do.
So he used a stern look to stop Xu Ying from continuing his words, which was regarded as acquiescing to Wang Huai's request.
"Wang Tong, you said that you did not attack your fellow disciples, but a private fight, this is just your words, and it does not match the many testimonies just now, do you mean to say that they are all making false testimony in the Heavenly Punishment Palace?"
In a word, everyone changed color, making false testimony in the Heavenly Punishment Palace? Joke, don't want to live anymore? This is the Heavenly Punishment Palace, the most terrifying place in Xiaohan Mountain, who dares to give false testimony here?
Of course, Wang Tong would not be so stupid as to accuse others of false testimony, but he was not panicked, and he had already thought of a rhetoric in his heart.
"These certificates are not false testimony, but they just see what is happening on the surface. ”
"What happened on the surface?" Wen Ce suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.
Sure enough, I only heard Wang Tong continue, "I have a grudge with Xu Ming, and it is not a small grudge, this is also an ugly thing, a little embarrassing, but since I have arrived in the Heavenly Punishment Palace, I naturally want to tell everything so as not to be wronged." ”
"Say it!" Wen Ce stared at Wang Tong deadly, his tone unexpectedly calm.
The contrast between the young man in front of him is too great, Wang Tong is very famous in Xiaohanshan, his reputation is mostly related to cowardice and incompetence, originally a disciple of Xiaohanshan, because of his lack of strength but relying on his relationship to become a disciple will not cause such a big storm, because although this is not the norm in a sect, but there will always be one or two cases every ten or twenty years, after all, cultivators are also human beings, and they also have feelings, and they also have such and such complex social relationships, who doesn't have a third aunt and six mothers-in-law? Even if there is some criticism, but it will never be as famous as Wang Tong, and his reputation will not be as stinky as Wang Tong, Wang Tong's reputation is getting louder and worse, it is obvious that someone is behind it, and he knows very well who is behind it, but this kind of thing is not even his master, of course he will not care, and there is nothing wrong with watching from the sidelines.
Cowardice and incompetence are his biggest impression of Wang Tong, but when he looks at this Wang Tong today, his appearance is the same as before, but his temperament has changed very differently, the cowardly appearance before is gone, replaced by an indifferent self-confidence, Wen Ce is just an accident, and he does not suspect anything, the world of cultivation, strength is respected, the reason why Wang Tong showed cowardice before was because of his lack of strength, and now he has hit the fairy fate, and his strength has increased greatly, and he naturally became confident, which is not surprising.
"The source of this matter starts with my fiancée and the third young man of the Xu family hooking up and adultering......" Wang said in a leisurely tone, and the audience was silent as soon as he said it.
