Chapter 146, Night Trial in the Torture Hall
Apricot Grove Villa.
Outer Courtyard.
A wide stone house full of green creepers, and in the middle of the stone house, there was a huge purple Dan furnace.
Under the Dan furnace, there is a raging fire.
A young girl in a light blue dress stood in front of the Dan furnace, watching the fire, and after a while, she walked to the side of the herb shelf and stretched out her hand to arrange the herbs.
Her countenance is calm and gentle, her technique is skillful and light, and her eyes are like a piece of warm jade and a basin of clear water.
At this moment, two young handyman disciples walked by the window of the stone house together, chatting as they went.
During the chat, a few different words occasionally burst out of the mouths of the two people: "Outer Courtyard", "Bee Swarm", "Miscellaneous Servant Palace", "Tang Gu", "Elder of the Criminal Academy", ......
While chatting, he disappeared around the corner.
In the stone house.
At first, the girl didn't care, but by chance, when she heard the words "Tang Gu" and "Elder of the Criminal Academy", the girl's hand couldn't help but tremble slightly.
A "guava flower" pinched in his hand fell to the ground silently.
Then, she didn't have time to pick up the guava flower on the ground, turned around and quickly walked out of the stone house, chasing in the direction where the two miscellaneous disciples went.
......
The Danshu Academy of Xinglin Villa is divided into three entrances and nine partitions, and there are 27 stone buildings of different sizes. One of the most central ones is called 'Dan Tower', also known as 'Apricot Tower'.
The apricot tower is also divided into nine floors.
Among them, the first and second floors are the largest number of lowest-level mass-level alchemy.
At this time, there were dozens of disciples here to select. Study.
In the left row, under the light brown bookshelf, there are two disciples, separated by a zhang in between, each holding a scroll of alchemy and watching.
One of them is a young man in a green shirt with a beautiful face, which makes people look very comfortable and kind.
The other is a young man in a blue shirt with a very rough appearance and a slightly black face.
The two of them looked very seriously. There was silence all around. No one bothered.
At this moment, a commotion came from outside the courtyard, and the two of them frowned at first, but after a while. They glanced at each other. The young man in the green shirt and the rough young man in the blue shirt put down the scroll in their hands at the same time. Walk outside the Danta.
A moment later, the two of them left the Danshu Academy, and their bodies limped. They came in the direction of the Torture Chamber.
......
Trading Street, Zongmenfang City.
In a very grand and solemn strange pavilion, on the second floor of Yaxuan, a young man in purple clothes sat casually, with a cup of light blue tea beside him.
An old white-haired man stood in front of him, explaining something.
Suddenly, there was a noise downstairs, and after a while, the young man in purple was expressionless, just took a sip of fragrant tea, and said lightly: "Tang Gu, hehe......"
He didn't move, but looked out the window.
......
Tonight, in the prison, the lights are bright.
It is pitch black and deep, and there are twenty-four pictures of evil ghosts in the forest and prison hanging on the four walls, the first badland of Xinglin Villa, the lobby of the criminal court.
Countless giant butter candles burned in the mouth of the bronze beast, reflecting the entire hall of the Torture Courtyard as bright as day.
However, no matter who it was, standing here, he still felt a chill in his body, and looking around, there seemed to be an inexplicable yin qi rushing towards his face.
A group of disciples standing outside and watching, their bodies couldn't help shrinking.
In the middle of the hall, kneeling or standing, lying or sitting, there were more than thirty or forty people gathered, most of them were dressed in gray, and they looked like miscellaneous disciples.
The only one sitting was the master of the miscellaneous palace, Yan Wangxiao.
At the top of the lobby, behind the purple pear wood table, there were three people sitting upright.
The one on the far left is a middle-aged man dressed in black with an expressionless face and slightly closed eyes.
One of his palms was laid flat on the table, his fingers crossed, thin and cold, stiff as a piece of marble.
In the middle, there is an old man in Geyi, with a white beard and white hair, a wrinkled face, and a pair of gold rings in his hands.
On the right, there is a woman, wearing a bright red and soft silk robe, her face hidden in a layer of white veil, and her expression is invisible.
The only inch of his wrist that is exposed is like jade and satin, like frost and snow.
However, her temperament is indifferent, her spirit is ethereal, and she sits there, but she seems to be sitting on the edge of a lonely cliff, on the bank of a hidden spring, and has nothing to do with this hall.
Whatever happened to this hall had nothing to do with her.
In Xinglin Villa, most people may not have seen these three people.
But it's absolutely impossible, someone hasn't heard of the names of these three people.
The three elders of the Criminal Court, "Black Yama" Tieshi, "Inch Hand Golden Ring" Ge Enyi, and "Bright Red Lady" Leng Xingruan.
The three of them are all masters above the Xuanhuang Realm.
And......
The iron face is selfless, the means are tough, the style is concise, the punishment is ruthless, and everyone is afraid.
No matter how vicious the thugs were, they were as weak as a sheep in front of the three elders of the torture court.
No matter how powerful, cautious, and cunning they are, because of their guilt, they will escape extremely secluded, and they will eventually be caught by them one by one and bear the punishment they deserve.
It can be said that in the eyes of outsiders, the three elders of the criminal court represent the highest force of Xinglin Villa, and it is difficult to compare with the deterrent power of the martial arts court in this regard.
The number of martial arts courts may be larger, but in terms of high-end combat power, they are not as good as the criminal courts, because what the criminal courts hold is the power to dispose of and punish.
And under the inclusion of this power, the Martial Academy is also among them, and it is difficult to be spared.
Of course...... The elders of the criminal dean, most of them, come from the martial arts academy, and sometimes, even part-time.
And the highest organization of the Martial Academy, the Shadow Group, is not included in this list because it has too few appearances and is too mysterious.
Today, a small miscellaneous servant hall accident should have not required the dispatch of the three criminal elders.
However, the incident of a poisonous bee sting was too appalling, so the three of them appeared at the same time, which was also very rare in the nearly ten years of trial in the criminal court.
Ge Enyi's eyes swept around, and then fixed in the middle of the main hall, the six or seven miscellaneous disciples lying on the ground, still humming and humming, red and swollen, and covered in blood.
His eyes moved slightly.
People are almost here.
Not only were all the disciples involved in the case arrested, but even the other people present at the time were not left behind.
Outside the main hall, there was a dense and thick circle of people, at least nearly a hundred, many of whom were the entrance to the outer courtyard of Xinglin Villa, and even elite disciples.
Of course, there are more miscellaneous disciples.
Finally, his gaze fell to the middle of the main hall, except for the six or seven young men lying on the ground, the only one standing calmly: "Tang Gu, are you guilty?"
Even in the face of such a situation, the young man who still seemed to be unhurried and calm and breezy smiled slightly, raised his head, and suddenly asked, "May I ask the elder, what is Tang Gu's crime?"
"Huh?"
Ge Enyi was a little surprised, but more regretful.
"With such conclusive evidence, several disciples were stung by your bees, and it will take at least a few months to heal, unprecedented, appalling, and you still say that you are not guilty?"
