Everyone went all the way north, five days later it rained heavily, the trip was delayed for a day, when they arrived at Wutai Mountain was the night after the eleventh day, these days Zuo Dengfeng has been spent in the prison car, he is burdened with the crime of Han Annihilation, naturally he does not enjoy any good treatment, he is used to the white eyes of the onlookers, food and drinking water are not guaranteed, from time to time there will be a sense of justice "patriots" kicked him through the cage, said that the rain is not a problem, more than ten days Zuo Dengfeng became more and more silent, Aside from asking for relief, there was hardly anything to say.

In the eyes of everyone, he was disheartened when he knew that his death was near, but in fact, Zuo Dengfeng did not give up hope, there was no helper, he could only rely on himself, and whether he could survive depended on whether he could gather enough aura to gather strength to survive the catastrophe before the end of the public trial conference.

Eleven days, Zuo Dengfeng did not slack off at all, the aura in the sea of qi was gradually filled, and the previously estimated fifteen days may be one day earlier, which means that it will have to be three days later at the earliest to gather qi to survive the tribulation.

Monk Tianchen had already sent someone back to Wutai Mountain to report the situation before this, and Wutai Mountain also made preparations in advance, vacating the monk's room for the people who came from afar, preparing a cell for Zuo Dengfeng, and even setting up a wooden platform for his public trial.

The guests were invited into the guest room for reception, and the prisoners were put into a cell and kept under strict guard, and a public trial was held after dawn to try Zuo Dengfeng's crimes.

There are many monasteries on Wutai Mountain, Zuo Dengfeng's cell is a cave located on the mountainside, it may have been the place where the elders of a certain temple practiced before, the cave is more than ten meters deep, there are two turns, and there are more than 20 people guarding inside and outside.

Zuo Dengfeng had no intention of running away, because he knew that he couldn't escape, what he was thinking about was how to delay time, his first thought was to pretend to be sick, but this idea was quickly denied by himself, because once he pretended to be sick, the other party was likely to send a senior monk to check whether he was really sick, so it was possible to find that he had full aura cultivation, but there was no other way to delay tomorrow's public trial, Bi Fengchun and the others couldn't wait to put him to death, and they wouldn't allow him to delay time.

After thinking hard for a long time, Zuo Dengfeng didn't come up with a feasible way, the only thing he could do was to debate with the other party, since it was a public trial, there must be a lot of onlookers, Wutai Mountain couldn't blindly convict him, Bi Fengchun said that the Xuanyin gauntlet was something from their Baiyun Temple, and they had to come up with corresponding evidence.

With this in mind, Zuo Dengfeng began to speculate about where the other party would be difficult, and what kind of answer he should make, until the fourth watch, he fell asleep, and even when he was sleeping, he kept pinching the qi gathering fingers.

The next morning, Zuo Dengfeng woke up in the sound of chanting Buddha, and the first thing he did after waking up was to check the spiritual energy reserves in his body, which was the first thing he did when he woke up every day for more than ten days, but the results of the endoscopic examination still made him very dissatisfied, and he had to accumulate enough spiritual energy in the afternoon at the earliest.

At seven o'clock in the morning, a monk brought him a meal, and Zuo Dengfeng devoured it all, and when he was hungry, his mind was not flexible, and he did not have the energy to deal with the next public trial if he was not full.

At eight o'clock, Zuo Dengfeng was brought to the interrogation platform set up in advance at the front foot of Wutai Mountain, the wooden platform of interrogation is about three zhang long, nine feet wide, feet from the ground, the south side of the wooden platform is a wide field, there is no seat, the left side is a large number of monks, the right side is the people outside the Buddhist gate, from last night to now, there are many good people who have come to see the excitement, the crowd of people, when there are more than a thousand people.

At this time, the chanting of the monks of Wutai Mountain has stopped, but the Buddha incense burned during the previous chanting is still lingering in the mountains, awakening people's minds and fixing people's minds.

Although he was beaten before, Zuo Dengfeng did not resent these monks, they provided food and water along the way, although the little was not enough to quench hunger and thirst, but it also extended his life, so at this moment Zuo Dengfeng did not have the heart to retaliate against Wutai Mountain, although Master Tianhong did not kill him, he did not have no responsibility at all, and Master Tianhong's apprentice was indeed killed by him, and it is reasonable for the other party to hate him.

There was nothing on the wooden platform, Zuo Dengfeng was brought to the center of the wooden platform, and twelve monks from Wutai Mountain surrounded the wooden platform, these monks were all masters of surviving the heavenly tribulation, sitting around, guarding against all kinds of accidents that might arise.

In the face of many onlookers and judges, Zuo Dengfeng was not afraid, people's intelligence is very important, but more importantly, the surname is not chaotic, if there is no surname, it will be chaotic and give the enemy a handle.

After Zuo Dengfeng stood still, the monks in the audience began to chant the Buddha again, there are many kinds of Buddhist scriptures, Zuo Dengfeng couldn't understand what scriptures the monks recited, but the sound of chanting was slightly sad, it may be a kind of scriptures like transcendence.

After a stick of incense, the sound of chanting stopped, and an elderly monk wearing a red and yellow robe walked out of the monks, this person has long eyebrows and long hair, the law is solemn, and the behavior is moderate, not in a hurry, this person came out, Zuo Dengfeng immediately guessed that this person was the abbot of Wutai Mountain, Master Tianguang.

Master Tianguang is the brother of Master Tianhong, about 80 years old, this person only said three words after walking out of the monks, one is to welcome everyone in the audience from afar, the second is to express calm about the tragic death of his brother Tianhong, Buddhism sees through life and death is not happy or sad, and the third is to designate his junior brother Tianchen and Shang Dai Wutai Mountain to the left to climb the peak accountable, and sit back on the Baicao futon after the scene is explained.

Wutai Mountain is the master, naturally the master asked first, after the abbot of Tianguang sat down, the monk Tianchen stood up, walked to the stage and looked at Zuo Dengfeng, Zuo Dengfeng looked down at him, and did not change the posture of holding his arms with his hands, the weather was very hot at this time, if he continued to put his hands on the sleeve tube, it would make everyone suspicious, and holding his arms with both hands could hide the qi gathering fingers of his left hand, which was also in line with his unruly surname.

"Amitabha, Wutai Mountain is a quiet place for Buddhism, Lao Gao is a monk, the monk does not ask about mundane things, Lao Gao only asks about the senior brother Master Tianhong, and I hope that the Zuo donor will answer truthfully." Monk Tianchen opened his mouth.

"I can't remember what happened to Master Tianhong, so let's ask someone from other sects to ask first, and I will recall what happened during this period." Zuo Dengfeng pondered for a moment and said, listening to the meaning of Monk Tianchen, Wutai Mountain only needs to inquire about the cause of Tianhong's death, which means that Wutai Mountain may hand him over to others after asking, so that the interrogation will end soon, and Zuo Dengfeng's purpose is to delay time as much as possible, so he will leave the matter of Master Wutai Mountain Tianhong to the end, and during this time, Wutai Mountain will also take strict care of him, and with Wutai Mountain taking care of him, he will not be in danger of dying for the time being.

"Amitabha, there are priorities, why does the left donor reverse the priorities." Monk Tianchen asked.

As soon as he said this, without waiting for Zuo Dengfeng to explain, there were a large number of onlookers on the right side of the audience who agreed with Zuo Dengfeng's proposal, and asked to ask him questions first, Tianchen monk turned his head to look at the abbot Tianguang, Tianguang nodded, Tianchen stepped back, and asked the "guests" who came from afar on the right side to ask first.

"Zuo Dengfeng, do you remember what evil things you did five years ago?" A stout man immediately rushed to the stage when he heard this, this person was wearing a brand-new practice uniform, and he spoke with a southern accent, and he should be a martial arts practitioner on the rivers and lakes.

Zuo Dengfeng couldn't help but sneer when he heard this, five years ago, he was still earning a few dollars in the culture, even if he wanted to do bad things, he didn't have the ability, this stout man obviously deceived him for no reason, trying to let him take the bad things he had done.

Zuo Dengfeng found out about this person's intentions, but he didn't say it, he was thinking about how to prolong the trial as much as possible, it would definitely not work to deny it, if he wanted to prolong the trial, he could only follow the other party's words.

"I've done so many things, where are you from, say it and I'll recall." Zuo Dengfeng said after sneering.

"I'm from Hunan." The strong man said loudly.

"Rotten people, yes, I did go to Rotten five years ago." Zuo Dengfeng imitated the other party's pronunciation and nodded and smiled.

"Did you kill the Li family?" Seeing this, the strong man was overjoyed and continued to lie to him.

"I want to think about it." Zuo Dengfeng fell into a long silence again, and only after a long time did he ask when and where the strong man was, every time he asked, he would hesitate for a long time, and after a full hour, he finally admitted that he killed the Li family, in fact, he didn't even know whether the Li family was a man or a donkey, but he could only admit that only by admitting could everyone in the audience come up in an endless stream to ask.

Zuo Dengfeng's plan succeeded, everyone in the audience came and went up for interrogation, Zuo Dengfeng would delay for a long time every time and then admit it, not only admitting but also expressing his willingness to compensate the victim, as soon as the scene came out, everyone thought of themselves as the victim and wanted to interrogate him.

Zuo Dengfeng confessed to destroying the door, admitting to robbery, admitting to killing, admitting to stealing, admitting to deception, in exchange for a day, he knew very well that admitting a trumped-up crime would make him a complete enemy of the whole people, but he had no way, otherwise he would not be able to delay time.

In the early morning of the next day, the trial continued, and a large number of people came up to interrogate him, at this time Wutaishan and Bi Fengchun couldn't sit still, and the trial could not be completed in ten days and half a month, the most important thing was that what these people said became more and more outrageous, how could Zuo Dengfeng go all the way to Fujian to rob five hundred taels of silver, how could Zuo Dengfeng take his accomplices to northern Shaanxi to pollute a widow in his fifties.

But for these, Zuo Dengfeng even admitted it himself, so that the fool also knew that he was delaying time, and in the end, for those who wanted to plant for no reason to obtain compensation, the Tianchen monk and Bi Fengchun of Wutai Mountain opened their mouths to expose them, so that the two became Zuo Dengfeng's defenders.

As soon as the two of them came out, those idle people saw that they couldn't get any benefits, so they retreated, and the middle-aged woman who practiced martial arts in Henan stepped forward, and she asked why Zuo Dengfeng wanted to cooperate with him to dig Zhou Ling.

"I have arrested more than 70 of my doors and forced me to open a way for them to visit the tomb, I have no choice but to agree, but I killed all of them in the Zhou Tomb, if you don't believe it, you can dig it up and take a look." This woman once brought water to wash his face, so Zuo Dengfeng told her the truth.

"In that case, why did you let go of the woman?" The middle-aged woman asked again.

"She will not sin unto death." Zuo Dengfeng replied with a sigh.

"Have you taken the funeral items from the Zhou Mausoleum?" Every question asked by the middle-aged woman was critical.

"I took out all the burial items in the two tombs of Zhou Ling." Zuo Dengfeng nodded for a long time and said, not only did he have to confess his guilt but also explain that all the things inside had been taken out, only in this way could he preserve the integrity of the other mausoleum, because he couldn't be sure if the other mausoleum was a Yin earthly branch, and he didn't want anyone to go over and dig up the ancient tomb because he coveted the things inside.
