Chapter 25: Turning Point
There were four people who came.
Xuan Qingyi and Yun Starling.
Lotus mirror, and Yan Bai.
In fact, Shaoguang never knew who the first place in the trial was in this Qing Talks.
It's Yanbai.
There is no way to explain the miracle of fate, except that she accidentally met Yan Bai after getting drunk in Qingpingfang that day, she never noticed the existence of such a person.
Not only because of Yan Bai's own taciturn and mystery, but also because Wei Shaoguang has been entangled in various things recently, so she has no time to pay attention to things and people other than herself.
Otherwise, Shaoguang would have been surprised to find out, then what happened later would not have been so painful and unprepared.
Unfortunately, there are no ifs.
Yan Bai stepped into the hall and saw the young man standing in the middle at a glance.
Black clothes with narrow sleeves, black hair in a high bundle, a red hairband hanging behind him, a white face, slender and smooth bones, and good martial arts.
He thought, it's still too much like a girl.
frowned, looked away, and looked at Li Baijing.
Obviously, for Yan Bai, few people in the hall knew him, and Li Baijing didn't know either, otherwise he would definitely change his attitude when Yan Bai stepped into this room.
It's still the same sentence, it's a pity, no one can change it back to a sentence that I knew earlier.
Li Baijing had great expectations for things that were already coming to fruition, and he was suddenly interrupted, which was unpleasant.
He asked Bu Qingyun, "I don't know what the boss means?"
Bu Qingyun didn't answer his words, but looked at Xuan Qingyi.
Xuan Qingyi approached Shaoguang with the three people behind him, he waved his hand slightly, and his palm crossed in front of the three people, and he said, "Master, this is Yan Bai, from the Great Calendar." ”
The palm of his hand finally stayed in front of Yan Bai's body, and only introduced Yan Bai's identity to Bu Qingyun.
Bu Qingyun nodded.
Xuan Qingyi withdrew his hand and stood aside silently.
Li Baijing had already sat back in his seat, serving tea and drinking water to hide his irritability.
The lotus mirror is standing on the side of Shaoguang, he is still wearing the same monk's robe, the warp and weft are clearly distinguished, the corners of the clothes are almost transparent color, the placket is embroidered with pink lotus, and a string of agarwood Buddha beads is lightly twisted in his hand, compassionate and ruthless.
Bare head, bewitching face.
Lotus Mirror lightly twisted the Buddha beads with one hand, made a cross Buddha ritual with the other hand, and said a word of Buddha lightly, he said to Li Baijing, "Master Li, can you listen to the poor monk say a few words about Lord Wei?" ”
In the face of the lotus mirror, Li Baijing always couldn't hide his irritability, this eldest son from the Li family was not only their pride, but also the most indispensable existence of Li Baijing, like a thorn in the heart, it was not a perfect choice to keep or get rid of it.
He kept drinking tea, and even when he heard Lianjing's words, he only put down the teacup slightly and replied, "Naturally, master." ”
After speaking, he picked up the teacup again and drank tea.
The tea leaves in the cup have been brewed ten times, and the fragrance of the tea has long faded, and Li Baijing poured it into his stomach without knowing the taste.
Lianjing's eyebrows were kind, he recited a Buddhist verse, and said slowly, "Donors, poor monks want to tell you one thing, about the origin of this Li Shizhu. ”
He looked at Yan Bai, Yan Bai nodded, he also nodded slowly, and continued, "Cen Lonely Rift Valley is the most attractive place in the southwest wilderness of the Great Calendar Kingdom, where witch Gu and poison have a reputation throughout the world, and there is a family in Cen Lonely Rift Valley that was wiped out by the enemy more than ten years ago, and there was a little boy who survived in this massacre, and later grew up to learn the most vicious witch Gu poison, and began to look for an opportunity to kill the enemy who slaughtered his entire clan back then, this investigation and tracking made that boy come to Qingxia Mountain, found an opportunity to kill the enemy's daughter. ”
At this point, the lotus mirror stopped, but everyone in the hall understood what was going on.
The atmosphere in the hall froze for a moment.
Unable to even look at each other, Li Baijing drank the last sip of tea in the cup and put the teacup back on the table at will.
The sound of a teacup falling to the ground shattered the silence of the room.
Li Baijing looked at the broken teacup at his feet in surprise, the light in his eyes dissipated, and countless thoughts flashed in an instant, he had missed after all.
Li Youguang, who was sitting in a wheelchair, sneered, no one could see how he made a move, and Li Baijing had already fallen to the ground, foaming at the mouth, silent.
The change came suddenly, and when Shaoguang's gaze fell on Li Baijing's voiceless face, Li Youguang had already fought with Lotus Mirror.
The two of them quickly struck in the small hall, while the others were scrambling to dodge, trying to exit the hall, but they couldn't get out.
Yan Bai stood quietly in place, his eyes following the two who were fighting.
Jiang Qiqi took advantage of the chaos to approach Shaoguang and spoke in her ear, "Shake Guang, should the jade pendant be returned to me?" ”
I don't even have a tone word, but I can still say the feeling of picking up the tail note.
Shaking the light retracted his gaze at Lianjing and Li Youguang, and turned his head slightly to look at Jiang Seventeen, "It will be returned, when will it be?" ”
"If you can get out safely during the five days of consolation, go under the apricot tree where I asked you for directions, and I will wait for you there."
"Okay."
Jiang Qiqi smiled with satisfaction, distanced himself from Wei Shaoguang, and stood to look at Li Youguang and Lianjing, who were still fighting.
Wei Shaoguang didn't know what kind of environment Jiang Seventeen grew up in, his temperament was unique, he had a harmless smile, he always wore loose clothes, and sat or stood carelessly, but he was able to be clear and strategic.
She also didn't expect that Li Youguang and the Li family in Jiangdong County would have such a blood feud.
Should we sigh that "there must be something hateful about the wretched"?
Li Youguang killed Li Huaying, and this result was both expected and unexpected.
This turn of events was unexpected, but it didn't completely solve her troubles.
Yan Bai stood not far away like an expressionless clay statue, also wearing black clothes, silver crowns and hair, and sharp eyebrows.
Compared with the meeting in Qingpingfang that day, Yan Bai behaved more like a young and promising battlefield general today, with pursed lips and sharp eyes, showing his judgment.
Silent but always ready to make a move.
There was some noise in the hall that made him frown slightly, and suddenly he made a move.
Buckling Li Youguang, who was defeated by the lotus mirror, Yan Bai quickly sealed several of his major acupoints, and then took out a rope from his body and tied Li Youguang neatly and threw him on the ground.
At this point, this farce has come to an end.
Bu Qingyun and the three of them have been sitting in a high position, calmly watching the fight in the hall, after Yan Bai tied up Li Youguang, Duanmu Qing touched his beard and stood up to end this farce.
"Everyone, can you sit down and listen to Qingxiamen now?"
Li Baijing's body was still lying on the ground, and the other people dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, sitting on the chair and drinking tea, and they cooperated very well.
Duanmu Qing looked at the scene in the hall, touched his beard and said with a smile, "Master Lotus Mirror and General Yan, please sit down, thank you for your help today." ”
turned to Jiang Seventeen and said to the three people, "Jiang Gongzi, Qingyi, Yun Xing also sit down." ”
A few people thanked each other and found a chair to sit down.
Seeing that they had all sat down, Duanmu Qing smiled with satisfaction, looked at Shaoguang, the only one standing in the hall, and suddenly said sharply, "Wei Shaoguang, you still don't kneel!" ”
Shaking Light didn't have any resistance, and quickly knelt on his knees, bowing his head to listen to Duanmu Qing's words.
"Wei Shaoguang, let's talk about it, do you know what's wrong?"
Shaking Light, who was kneeling on the ground, raised his head and replied loudly, "The disciple knows his mistake. ”
"So tell me what you did wrong?"
"Disciples have three mistakes, one is reckless, should not act without authorization, the second is arrogant, should not know and not report, thinking that they are strong in martial arts, but others seize the opportunity to take advantage of them, and the third is dull, should not treat people with a good heart, let the real wicked escape."
These three mistakes are very difficult to summarize, and they are high-sounding.
Her gaze was level, so she missed an eye exchange.
Duanmu Qing glanced at Bu Qingyun without a trace, the latter shook his head slightly, he sighed silently, and then glanced at Qingwen who hung his head silently, Duanmu Qing gritted his teeth and became the villain.
When he listened to Shaoguang's words, not only did he not show relief, but slapped the table and asked with a sneer, "Wei Shaoguang, have you learned to lie after reading books for more than ten years?" ”
Shaoguang looked over in surprise, looked at Duanmu Qing's angry face, and then looked at Bu Qingyun with a straight face and the expressionless master, she suddenly panicked in her heart, and replied, "The disciple is not lying, please ask Uncle Mingjian." ”
Duanmu Qing dropped a teacup and scolded angrily, "Ridiculous!"
"Uncle Mingjian, please!"
Wei Shaoguang knelt on the ground, folded his hands, and performed the standard disciple salute, with a firm and respectful attitude.
Duanmu Qing looked at Shang Wei Shaoguang's dark eyes, seeing the firmness and doubt in them clearly, he gritted his teeth and looked away, in order to hide his unbearable he had to stretch out his hand and point at Shaoguang, and asked her angrily, "Let me ask you, where did you learn the moves you used in the competition yesterday and today?" ”
Wei Shaoguang's first reaction was to look at Qing Wenbi, but Qing Wenbi still had no expression, looking at her with a pair of eyes, but it seemed to look at others through her.
Shaoguang suddenly felt the coldness of his hands and feet, his heart paused, and then beat wildly.
Her throat tightened a little, she licked her lips, opened her mouth to speak, there was a slight tremor in her voice due to disbelief, she tried to suppress her voice, and spoke as calmly as possible, "What does Uncle Shi mean by this?" My martial arts are taught by my master, where does my uncle not know where it came from? ”
"Am I not familiar with Qingxiamen's moves? Wei Shaoguang, your moves are not what I taught to my disciples in Qingxiamen at all, although you don't have many moves, you can still see that it is the evil martial arts that my Qingxiamen has long forbidden, you dare to steal the forbidden martial arts, do you still not know the crime? ”
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the hall, and several family heads and sect leaders who had quieted down because of Li Baijing's death, after watching a scene inexplicably, learned such a shocking news, and couldn't help but forget the previous unhappiness, and discussed in a low voice one by one, guessing the purpose of Qingxiamen to deal with this matter in front of them, which was a little lively for a while.
Duanmu Qing glanced around, a mocking smile hidden in his eyes, and used anger to cover up his true feelings.
And Wei Shaoguang was in a whisper, and he became cold.
Practiced forbidden exercises?
Evil ways?
Scold.
She raised her head and looked at Qingwenbi, who said word by word extremely firmly: "The disciple didn't practice!"
"You said no, no, no?" Duanmu Qing was not afraid of what she said, and quickly convicted, "You may not know that you are practicing the evil skills forbidden by this sect, but the mistake has already been made, whether you are intentional or unintentional, you have to accept the punishment, Wei Shaoguang, are you willing to accept it?" ”
Wei Shaoguang still looked at her master, and she asked, "I don't know, can I say a few words alone with my master?" ”
"No, you can't." Duanmu Qing refused to shake the light, and directly beckoned over the four people.
"Secretly learning the evil skills prohibited by this door, violating the rules of this door, coupled with Wei Shaoguang's reckless behavior during the Qing Talks, he did not report it, which brought a lot of trouble to the Sect, and punished him for several crimes, first pressed to the provincial bamboo cave wall, canceled the next condolences to participate in the qualifications, and after the Qing Talks, the trial Yuntai trial was determined!"
"Master!"
"Uncle Shi!"
Yun Xing and Xuan Qingyi spoke at the same time and stopped Duanmu Qing.
And Duanmu Qing obviously knew what they were going to say, so he didn't give them a chance to speak at all, and directly waved his hand to let people take it away.
"Hold on!"
Four disciples stepped forward, tied her hands with ropes, pulled her up, and led her out of the hall with her arms clasped.
Wei Shaoguang didn't speak anymore during the whole process, and obediently followed the four Qingxia Sect disciples out of the door and walked towards the Provincial Bamboo Cave on the mountain.
The hall used for reception was in the front yard, and a peach tree was planted outside the door, but it was a new peach tree, which had already budded, and there were some flowers on it that were about to bloom.
Shaoguang took a serious look at it as he passed by, and thought in his heart that the flowers of the old peach blossom tree were really gone.
What a pity.
Before he walked out of the gate of the Qingzhu Palace, a voice came from the back room, "No one is allowed to intercede!" Drifted into the ears of the shaking light.
She hooked her lips and smiled, which quickly turned into a self-deprecating laugh.
Without saying a word, she followed the four Qingxia Sect disciples who had been forced to guard her to the snow-covered Provincial Bamboo Cave.
Besides, in the hall, Shaoguang was pressed away, Xuan Qingyi and Yun Xing knelt on the ground and refused to get up, asking the three hall masters to investigate thoroughly and be extrajudicial and gracious.
Bu Qingyun got up at this time, he stood up and walked in front of Xuan Qingyi, and said, "Shake the light and be punished."
Four words, no doubt, Xuan Qingyi stood up, did not speak, turned his head and walked out of the hall.
Walking out behind him was the starling.
The two brothers are going to catch up with Shaoguang to see how she is doing.
There was also the body of the head of the house lying in the hall, and kneeling was a murderer who had killed someone else.
Bu Qingyun said a few words, and even threatened and intimidated, and the rabble brought by Li Baijing retired and left one by one.
The disciples of Qinghong Hall walked in and carried Li Baijing's body away on a stretcher, and Li Youguang was escorted back to Qinghong Hall to take care of him.
Yan Bai stood up and found Bu Qingyun to speak, "Head Yan has a reluctant request. ”
"General Yan, please speak."
"Li Youguang is a member of the Great Calendar, and I want to take him back to the Great Calendar after the Qing Talks."
Bu Qingyun thought for a while, and Fang agreed to his request.
After Yan Bai respectfully bowed, he left the Qingzhu Hall with the lotus mirror.
Only Jiang Seventeen was left, and he had been sitting lazily in his chair all the time, watching this turning point of conversation.
The person who originally came to find trouble had already been lying on the ground and finally carried away, and Shaoguang, who was originally suspected of killing others, was cleared of the suspicion of murder, but he was punished for exposing the forbidden art of stealing and learning.
That's a lot of fun.
He smiled and said goodbye to the hall master of the three halls, pondering things all the way and walking slowly back to Liuyun Garden.
