Chapter 18: Confronting each other in court
The clouds cover the cold moon, but the white snow fills the dark sky, silently decorating the endless earth, although there is no bright moon, but there are a few faint stars twinkling, sprinkling silver brilliance on the snow-colored earth. The pavilions that rise up layer upon layer stand in the middle, and there are hidden lights, which make people reverie continuously.
"Wu Yi, if you are going to die tomorrow, will you be afraid?" Mo Zhicicada played with the black beads he took out of nowhere in his hand, and his brows were slightly furrowed as if he had something on his mind.
Xuanfu Temple is a layer of iron prison, which is several times stronger than the dungeon, yellowish is the only color in this prison, and the hard material makes it like an iron bucket, but for the people in prison, the most interesting thing is the transparent iron window less than three zhang high, looking out from the inside, you can vaguely see the precious snow scene.
At this time, Yan Wuyi sat on the side, closed his eyes tightly and slowly healed his injuries, he didn't know how to cultivate spiritual power, he could only rely on his own feelings, and put all the remaining spiritual power of the four orifices into the shoulder injury, and perceive the hidden diseases in it with pain, and then drive it away.
"Yes. ”
Yan Wuyi said firmly, without the slightest hesitation. Since experiencing life and death three times and twice, his state of mind seems to have improved a lot, and he is not afraid of being discovered by Mo Zhicicada The cowardice and fear in his heart.
When death really comes, there is always a tremor from the soul, maybe it is more appropriate to say that it is resistant, not to mention that Yan Wuyi is such a weak realm, even if it is a peerless power, when facing death, there will inevitably be an inexplicable panic in his heart.
"Coward, the master is not afraid of death. Mo Zhician grinned and sneered, Wei Chuyi had already sent someone to expel the crime and return him to freedom, but he laughed and said that he was used to living in prison and wanted to stay in prison for another night, this strange idea was disgusting.
"Since you're not afraid, then tomorrow you can die for me, and talk some nonsense. Yan Wuyi said with disgust, after the tempering of life and death, he faintly noticed that there were signs of breakage, but there was no aura in Xuanfu Temple, which suppressed the breakthrough of his realm.
On the way of martial arts, the improvement of mood and perception can naturally help the growth of their cultivation, and can stabilize the realm, making the road of martial arts more and more solid.
Three days ago, where could I have thought of stepping into the cultivation and breaking through the three tricks in a row? Now I have safely avoided the difficulties, and the realm will also reach the five tricks.
"Tomorrow out of the city, you must be careful of the gangsters chasing and killing, I am afraid that Luo Yi and others will lose their minds and kill people close to me, just now we were lucky to escape the killing machine, and your separation charm will shock the other party's strong to death, if the news is revealed, I am afraid it will endanger you." ”
Yan Wuyi thought about it, and still gave a few words, although Mo Zhicicada is mysterious, but the grace of saving his life is unforgettable, and the feeling of suffering is forever engraved in his heart, and he has long been regarded as a friend after getting along for more than a day.
"You better worry about yourself first, your eldest brother and I have a way to save your life. ”
Mo Zhicicada's nose was a little sour, since he traveled down the mountain with his master on his back, he had never met a young man of the same age who got along well with Yan Wuyi like this, and he still thought about himself in danger. Then he took out another object from the tattered pocket.
"This thing is called the Seven Star Talisman, and it is an ancient ...... Forget it, you don't understand, anyway, it can save your life in times of crisis, and there are many wonderful uses, so let's experience it slowly. ”
Mo Zhicicada's gray old pocket is like a bottomless pit, and he can always take out a few strange things, Yan Wuyi opened his shining eyes and looked at the thing in his hand, the thumb-sized talisman was completely black, like a piece of scrap iron, there was no beauty at all, and the only thing that attracted attention was that there was a trace of deep black gas lingering.
"Seven Star Talisman?" Yan Wuyi was not polite to him, took the talisman and took a closer look, the majesty of the previous shock talisman was still unforgettable, presumably this thing was also an extraordinary treasure, maybe it was Mo Zhicicada who secretly took it from which of his handsome uncles.
"Don't, the master knows what your kid is thinking, don't worry, it's definitely not stolen. Mo Zhician hurriedly explained, with a helpless face, and then returned to the truth: "Although you can't see the wonder of this seven-star talisman, there are many strong people in this Changxia City who know this thing, you must keep it alive, and don't show it to people at will, otherwise it will cause trouble and harm you at that time." ”
"Hmm. ”
Yan Wuyi nodded cautiously and held the talisman tightly. The two had a long talk all night, each joking.
The night faded away, followed by a warm morning light, and a clear day, and the snow finally stopped for several days.
Early in the morning, someone sent someone to Xuanfu Temple to take Yan Wuyi to the prison department for trial.
With the messenger through the Xuanfu Temple, the resumption of a hundred zhang, is the prison division of the yamen, here Yan Wuyi has been here once, two stone beasts domineering sit on both sides, hanging four characters in the middle, the door in front of the ring stone. Those four characters are the Changxia Criminal Division, and the precept stone is inscribed: the official road is right, the people benefit the people's hearts, the idea of good and evil, and stick to the heart.
Further on, we arrived in front of the ya, and at this time, the crowd from nowhere surrounded the place where the witnesses were watching, and there were even three or two neighbors and acquaintances mixed in.
"It's easy to bring the suspect Yan!"
There was a loud shout in court, the case had already been taken step by step, and the presiding judge Yang Ji suddenly slapped the hall in shock, and the audience did not dare to make any more noise, and when he heard the words, he immediately escorted Yan Wuyi to the front of the court.
Yan Wuyi did not kneel on his knees, but only bowed respectfully, then stood up with his head held high, his eyes swept on both sides, and his face was familiar.
Wei Chuyi, the head of the Prison Department of the High Seat of the Left Hall, sat solemnly, upright, wearing a red feather golden crane robe, wearing a double-feathered black gauze hat; On the right hall stood Lian Junjue, the third master of the Lian family, with a yellow robe rolling and an extraordinary momentum, and Yan Wuyi glanced at each other, as if there was a flash of murderous intent; on the side, the young master in white robe Jiang Yun and the black-robed young man Yuan Jiuyang had different complexions, the former was resentful, the second was puzzled, and the latter was worried, although his face was slightly emotional, but he was looked at by Yan Wuyi in his eyes.
In the front row of the onlookers, there was even the handsome and extraordinary Duan Yun who calmly watched it, this time, obviously he didn't bring his sister Wuyu, maybe the girl was still in the dark.
As for the face of the living, there is Wei Ji, an official of the Wenxin Pavilion who sat next to Wei Gong with a deep breath, I saw that his face was smiling, with a Confucian style, and the deputy city lord of the right hall, Yutai Jun, who was sitting on the right hall, was iron-blooded and condensed, with sharp edges and corners, and did not have a beard, but it was more stable. Even Jun Jue was sitting in front of him, slightly fat, like an ordinary person, and he was also smiling, which made people unable to see through.
The person sitting in the court was none other than today's chief judge Yang Ji, who was inevitably a little uncomfortable trying murder cases in front of many powerful people.
"Yan Wuyi, why don't you kneel when you see this official?" Yang Ji asked fiercely, as the chief judge, he naturally had the momentum of an official.
"Born as a human being, only kneel to the parents of heaven and earth, the Taoist heart of man, the heaven and the earth live me, the parents give birth to me, and the Taoist heart understands me. Yan Wuyi's face was calm, unmoved, and he was proud.
"Yan Wuyi, on the seventh day of the third month of the third hundred and fifty-eighth year of the floating and sinking of Xunning, you and Lian Que Luoyi broke out in the Yan family's old house at the foot of Tianmu Peak, during which Lian Que was seriously injured, his lungs were shattered, and his face was injured, do you still have anything to say?" Yang Ji didn't care about him, and asked loudly.
"When the four of them broke into my Yan family's old house at night, they were instructed by Luo Yi to kill me, how could I let him kill him, passively resisted, and had no intention of hurting his face, but the injury was not fatal, and the emperor could learn from it. Yan Wuyi's sharp eyes swept across the three of them.
"Nonsense!"
Jiang Yun winced and glanced at everyone present, and then took the lead in speaking out angrily against Yan Wuyi.
"That night, I waited to go to Yan's house, but I heard that Yan Wuyi was struck by lightning but was safe and sound, so I was curious to go and watch, but I didn't expect Yan Wuyi to pounce on us like crazy, in order to prevent him from hurting himself, Lian Que brother resolutely fought with him, and never thought of a move to be seriously injured by him, and then died when he returned home!" Luo Yi also took a step forward and talked eloquently.
