223. Chapter 223
"Qingxi, is this true?" Tan Yongjing had already relieved himself and asked angrily.
"Please Uncle Mingjian! What this senior said is definitely not the truth, but someone deliberately framed him!" Ling Qingxi looked at his fellow disciples around him and said anxiously, "Most of the junior disciples can testify, I was in the room at that time, and I never left the inn at all, let alone killed that little junior brother!"
At this point, Ling Qingxi can only do the dying struggle, even if it is pale and weak, it is better than sitting still.
"Senior Uncle, the disciple did go back to his room after seeing Senior Brother come out of your room," a Xuanyue disciple stepped forward and said, "However, he never came out again. γ
Other disciples also chimed in: "Yes, Senior Brother has not been out of the inn today. γ
"He went directly to the street from the window, so naturally you can't see it," Tang Manfeng called the shopkeeper and ordered in front of all the Xuanyue Sect disciples, "You go and bring back the body of that little disciple." γ
"Yes. The shopkeeper replied.
Tang Manfeng was so blunt that everyone present was surprised.
Saying that, Tang Manfeng turned to Tan Yongjing again: "Please also ask Tan Daxia to send a few more strong disciples to accompany him, there are not only the corpses of your sect's disciples there, but also a lot of information remaining, which can be used by everyone to distinguish between the truth and the falsehood I said." γ
Tan Yongjing nodded, selected four disciples and left the inn with the shopkeeper.
Ling Qingxi looked left and right, he had already prepared for the worst, if this matter was revealed, even if they didn't know about Qiu Yi, it would be enough for themselves.
"Qingxi, if it's really you, now that I say it, if there is anything hidden, I will consider it. Tan Yongjing said coldly.
"Uncle Shi-I-" Ling Qingxi was at a loss, and was speechless for a while.
But Tan Yongjing also knew about his hesitation, although he was cold, he had to face it.
"Why?" Tan Yongjing almost squeezed these three words out between his teeth.
"IβI was wronged!" Ling Qingxi still didn't admit it.
"Then let's wait. Tan Yongjing didn't want to ask him more.
Half an hour, the shopkeeper and the accompanying Xuanyue Sect disciples ran back in a hurry.
Several people carried a large tightly wrapped sack, which was covered with dirt and broken grass, and was gently rested on the ground.
"The owner is here. The shopkeeper wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead.
The Xuanyue disciples who went with him looked flustered, and they spoke in Tan Yongjing's ears for a while, as if they were contagious, and Tan Yongjing's eyes suddenly became confused.
"Open. Tan Yongjing said coldly.
Several Xuanyue disciples cautiously stepped forward and untied the sack, revealing the corpses inside.
"Tan Daxia, you can personally examine the injuries and see why this person died. Tang Manfeng said.
Ling Qingxi saw that there was no room for turning around, so she could only break the kettle, so she immediately knelt down in front of Tan Yongjing, and cried instantly: "Uncle Forgiveness, it's a disciple - the disciple was confused for a while - he couldn't report it!"
"I ask you, why do you want to kill your fellow disciples!" Tan Yongjing was already furious.
"I, that junior brother, actually conspired with the foreign faction, I was just suspicious, but I followed and wanted to ask clearly, but who knew that he didn't know what to say, and the disciple killed him by mistake, but because he didn't get any evidence, he didn't dare to report the matter back to his uncle-" Ling Qingxi said, pointing to the three corpses on the ground, and said loudly, "I happened to see these three people connecting with that junior brother, and I felt strange. γ
"Senior Nephew Ling, you really should listen to what you are saying now," Yue Swift Wind said, "It's really like a clown who jumps off the beam, and he is clever in his words. γ
The corners of Ling Qingxi's mouth twitched, his mind was already blank, he didn't have time to think about the words just now, and blurted out in a flash.
"It's been a long time, it's hard to guard against thieves day and night, and the thief shouts to catch the thief!" Yingqi's words are also ironic.
The disciples of the Xuanyue Sect all took a few steps back, kept a distance from Ling Qingxi, and looked at Tan Yongjing in unison.
Tan Yongjing soothed his breath, and this sudden change made him unable to ease his senses.
"Uncle Tan, disciple sentence-"
"What do you want to say that everything is true? People in the world are not all fools!" Tan Yongjing was furious, "Let me ask you one last time, why did you do such a thing?"
Ling Qingxi looked at Tan Yongjing helplessly, and then looked at the junior disciples around her, from their expressions, she knew that there was no way out, and no matter how much quibbling she had, it was useless.
He thought about it well, the only way now is to buy time, so that he can escape in the interval, and there are only more than a dozen Xuanyue disciples in the inn, as long as he saves his life and informs Lord Yan, and joins hands with him to kill this group of people here, he can still return to Xuanyue Gate as his head.
"The disciple was wrong, it was the disciple who killed him," Ling Qingxi was already crying bitterly, "Because the disciple knows that there is no evidence to prove that Chen Yin killed the master, if you are allowed to talk about it like this, it will only be over, and the head will be unjustly killed, so the disciple wants to stop him, but the junior brother said that the uncle's order is not violated, and the disciple does not listen to his words, so it is the disciple who is confused! It is the disciple who is confused!"
Tan Yongjing gasped, and his tone was cold: "How can I come out of Xuanyue Gate with such a vicious person as you! Murder pays for life, it is justified, but everything must be evidenced, based on your words alone, how can you conclude that the murderer is a person from Dinghua Mountain!"
"The disciple is revenge-minded, impulsive and recklessβ"
"What's the use of understanding now, according to the rules of the door, you want to kill the same sect, how to solve it, you know it yourself," Tan Yongjing said coldly, "The matter of the head of the Qiuyi sect, the Xuanyue Sect will definitely figure it out, and will not let go of the perpetrators, but it will not be like you." γ
Ling Qingxi knocked her head several times and cried, "Uncle Tan, for the sake of the master, please let the disciple live!"
Tan Yongjing didn't look at him anymore, and whispered, "Give you a way to live, then who will give him a way to liveβ"
After finishing speaking, Tan Yongjing clenched his fists and bowed to Yue Fengfeng and Yingqi: "This time the sect is unfortunate, and it almost caused a misunderstanding among the people of the Hua faction. γ
"Tan Zhangjie should deal with his own affairs first, our problem is not a big deal. Moon Wind clenched his fist back.
Tan Yongjing nodded helplessly, and made a special salute to Tang Manfeng: "Thank you, Your Excellency, for telling the truth and avoiding the conflict between us and the Dinghua faction." γ
Tang Manfeng waved his hand and said, "No need to thank you, I'm not helping you, there are some things I shouldn't have said again, but the matter has come to this point, so I will tell you about it by the way, the three people of this guard division are found by your big apprentice to kill you, and I heard that in their conversation, he mentioned some kind of agreement between him and Yan Ying, which seems to have something to do with your death. γ
"Yan Ying?" Tan Yongjing was stunned for a moment, looked at Ling Qingxi and said, "Yan Ying is the old friend of the head of Qiu Yi's family, what did you agree with him, and it was related to my life and death?"
