Chapter 147: The Bottomless Abyss
And the other inner disciples were just for the merit of a treasure protector and thief, so they willingly came to fill the demon's empty spirit for many years. Maybe for them, Yuan Yu is a well-behaved, capable, and trustworthy subordinate, where would they have thought that he would always want them to die well?
Yuan Yu, whom Luoyu knows, is extremely ambitious, and he will repay him, and he is by no means a person who is willing to be called and drunk. Back then, he was only instructed by Lotte a few times, and he hated him so much that he had to kill him, but now that he has been bullied to such an extent, it is strange that he can be willing! Pity these inner disciples, they have been deceived from the beginning, and many people do not know who harmed them until they die.
Of course, at this time, if Luoyu knew that before the demon shadow left, he ran to his residence under Yuan Yu's strong request to take a turn, and when he saw that he was not there, Yuan Yu was angry and gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and under the impatient urging of the demon, he hated and left something, and then left, he would not have this mood to pity others.
I don't know how long it has been, Luo Yu felt a sharp pain in his mind, and he had to forcibly wake up from his coma.
As soon as he opened his eyes, a group of majestic and serious deacons of the Precept Hall dressed in white background Xuanwen robes came into view, and Luo Yu chuckled in his heart. There was absolutely nothing good about the place where these people appeared, not to mention that the place where they were located was a gloomy stone chamber that did not allow a glimmer of light, and it was not difficult to imagine that this should be the cell where the Temple of the Precepts was rumored to be built deep in the belly of the mountain, right?
A feeling of weakness came, Luoyu struggled hard but couldn't stand up, and after a trance, he realized that he was wearing spiritual power shackles on his body, and he couldn't exert half of his strength at all. But it was his weak struggle that made the deacons of the Hall of Discipline in front of him look like they were facing a great enemy, and they were all on guard, as if Luoyu's appearance might even burst out and hurt people, which looked quite funny.
After determining Luoyu's "harmlessness to humans and animals", a deacon took out a piece of tissue paper and put it in front of Luoyu.
Luoyu was faced with a piece of crime, and when he saw what was written on it, he was greedy and ignorant, stealing heavy treasures, releasing the devil and many other crimes, and finally understood his situation, it turned out that he was misunderstood by them as the culprit of the day's disaster.
Seeing that Luo Yu was only staring at the charges in a daze, without pleading or admitting his guilt, the deacons of the Hall of Discipline regarded him as the kind of stubborn who was unwilling to cooperate, how could they have the heart to waste time with him?
One of them strode forward and stood still, and said in a loud voice like reciting a criminal law: "Don't try to delay time, either you have a grievance or confess your guilt as soon as possible! If you continue to rub off like this, you will be punished! When the time comes, it will be too late to regret it." ”
Luo Yu came back to his senses and said lightly: "I didn't put the devil, you have listed so many crimes for me, where is the evidence?"
The deacon looked disgusted, but said in a businesslike tone: "Since you don't confess your sin, it's good to ......."
After taking a few items handed over by one person behind him, and placing them in front of Luoyu one by one, the deacon pointed to one of the empty bottles and said, "This was found in your house." Do you know?"
Luoyu shook his head, "I don't know, what is this?"
The deacon obviously didn't expect that the evidence was placed in front of him, and Luo Yu could deny it outright, and his tone suddenly became stern, and he shouted: "The formation that sealed the demon and the demon ruler were all polluted by the things in the bottle, so they were broken by the demon head! And this bottle was found in your room, and you still don't admit your guilt? Say, why did you release the demon head?"
Luoyu's face was incredulous, so realistic that the deacons were suspicious, but blindly pretending to be stupid couldn't convince them, because there was more "evidence" behind him, which would push Luoyu into the bottomless abyss!
The deacon didn't laugh angrily, nodded and said, "Okay, then let me ask you, why did you appear in the Hall of Commandments, and how did you survive?"
This question is the real problem, if Luo Yu said directly, there was an inner disciple who asked him to steal the demon ruler that morning, but this inner disciple ran to catch the thief again, and then was eaten by the devil, how can people believe it?
Luo Yu knew very well that saying this would only make people think that he had completely started to bite indiscriminately in order to get away with it. But if he didn't mention that someone had asked him to steal the Demon Ruler, how could he explain why he appeared in the Hall of Discipline that night?
Luo Yu now understands Yuan Yu's plan and motives, and he can only prove his innocence if he succeeds in pointing out the murderer.
But it is not easy to point out the serious murderer, if he directly tells all the speculations about Yuan Yu's specific plan, it will definitely make things more complicated and add a sense of confusion. What's more, all these details are his speculations, and there is no real evidence, he can't say that these are all guessed based on his understanding of Yuan Yu, right?
So Luo Yu could only say succinctly: "At nightfall that day, I happened to see Yuan Yu, who was also a disciple of the outer sect, acting sneakily, so I followed him, and followed him all the way to the Hall of Precepts. In order not to let him notice, I have been hiding in the distance, and I have seen him release the demon head, killing several inner disciples who happened to be present. Maybe it's because I'm so far away that I haven't been discovered by the Adversary. ”
Unexpectedly, the deacon didn't believe it at all after hearing this, and sneered: "You haven't been discovered by the devil? What kind of cultivation is that devil? Not a single insect in the entire territory of Jichuan Gate can escape its perception! What kind of cultivation are you? It's so close, why can't it find you? Hmph! You're still quibbling! You think you're very smart, right? Do you think you'll get away with it by planting the blame on someone else? Let me tell you the truth, this disciple named Yuan Yu is dead! He could never be the one who released the Adversary, otherwise why would the Adversary kill him and leave you behind?"
"Yuan Yu is dead! How is it possible?"
This news was too shocking, and Luo Yu blurted out his heart in shock, "I obviously heard him talking to the demon head in the demonic qi and reminded it that Elder Qin was coming back soon, so I left with him...... How could we?"
Luo Yu was sure that at least before he fell unconscious, Yuan Yu was definitely not dead! That was because the demon had successfully escaped, for it, Yuan Yu had made a great contribution, why did he kill him?
The news of Yuan Yu's death made Luo Yu fall into a huge confusion and predicament, and his shocked expression did not seem to be fake, and the deacons of the Hall of Discipline present began to admire his acting skills, if it were not for the real evidence in front of them, they would definitely suspect that Luo Yu was innocent.
"Okay, we found his waist card and half of his lifeless arm at the scene, exactly like the other disciples who were killed! Now that Yuan Yu is dead, see who else you can plant? Our Precept Hall has always enforced the law impartially, and will never wrongfully accuse the innocent, unless there is real evidence, it is impossible to convict you at will.
"Don't think we don't know, we have already investigated the relationship between you and many of the deceased this time, and there are even high-level disciples to testify, you and Yuan Yu have a long-term grudge, and it is precisely because Yuan Yu saw through your intention to release the demon that he contacted a group of inner disciples and prepared to capture you on the spot! Look, these two jade summons were found from the dead in the apse, and the last few summons inside happened to record their plan to organize the capture of you!"
