Chapter 72: Verdict
Yin Shu, the eldest disciple of Huximen, is willing to replace the teacher and calmly go to the punishment, whether his behavior itself is legal or not is not mentioned, but it is an out-and-out virtue, and it is the ultimate virtue, which has the style of antiquity.
He led his disciples to kneel all night outside Changshi's study, which touched countless people in Southern Wu Prefecture. Before dawn, dozens of people gathered outside Changshi's study to cheer him up.
By noon, the crowd of onlookers had reached hundreds, and there were even female cultivators who brought tea and water to the disciples of Huximen, but no one took a sip.
Yin Shu glanced at the bowl of water in front of him out of the corner of his eyes, and subconsciously licked his lips, but he knew that at this moment, everyone was in the spotlight, and he must not drink a drop!
Feeling the hour for a while, it seemed that it was not the right time, so he kowtowed again and shouted: "Huximen disciple Yin Shu, Fu Wei, please accept the punishment for my master and pay for his life!"
The disciples followed behind him and continued to bow down: "The disciples are willing to take my teacher!"
Yin Shugang raised his head, and suddenly saw a person coming out of the crowd, looking at himself, his eyes were full of tears, and he said loudly: "Such kindness and filial piety, such virtue, it is really a crying ghost and god, Xue is not talented, and he is willing to make a horse cry for Huxi Gate!"
Yin Shu was overjoyed, knelt for a day, and finally someone was willing to come forward, and since then the good name has been spread in the world!
Seeing this person looking at Yin Shu, he wiped his tears, which showed that he was moved, and said behind him: "Gentlemen, may you all kneel here with me Xue Dingtu!"
Immediately, more than a dozen people followed Xue Dingtu and bowed down to Changshi's study, and heard Xue Dingtu shouting to the study: "Gu Changshi, Yin Jun is willing to die for his teacher, this sincerity can move the world, I will ask for the same qi - fulfill him!"
"Fulfill him!"
"Fulfill him!"
"Fulfill Him......"
Yin Shu's eyes suddenly darkened, so he fainted on the spot, turned his head and glared at Xue Dingtong who was kneeling beside him, and scolded in his heart.
Xue Dingtu said to him: "Yin Jun, although you and I don't know each other, but the high righteousness of the king, Xue admires ......"
Yin Shu couldn't help it, and got up to drag Xue Dingtu: "Brother Xue, right? You and I have never met, why bother?"
Xue Dingtu took his hand, neither got up nor let go, and said movingly: "Yin Jun, don't worry, if Gu Changshi doesn't agree today, Xue Mou won't get up, but I want to kneel here with Jun Chang!"
Yin Shu was in a hurry, and scolded: "Which onion are you? Yin Mou self-help master, what do you have to do with you, what should you do, don't make trouble here when you are full! This is Changshi's study, if Gu Changshi cures your crimes, don't blame me for not reminding you!"
Xue Dingtu looked around and sighed: "Yin Jun, true benevolence and righteousness, don't think about Xue's safety, even if Gu Changshi cures me of my crimes, I have to speak up for Yin Jun!"
Saying that, Xue Dingtu shouted to the long history study again: "Fulfill him!"
Everyone behind him raised their arms and shouted, "Fulfill him!"
Yin Shu was helpless, forcibly suppressed the urge to kill, and said in a low voice: "Xue Daoyou, I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding...... In this way, give you ten spirit stones, and you can leave quickly, okay?"
Xue Dingtu was stunned: "What does Yin Jun mean by this?"
Where can Yin Shu explain, he can only continue to increase: "Fifteen yuan!"
Xue Dingtu said: "Yin Jun misunderstood Xue......"
"Twenty yuan, it's almost done!" quietly stuffed a handful of spirit stones over, and then pushed and shoved Xue Dingtu away.
Xue Dingtu was holding a handful of spirit stones, and was inexplicably pushed out of the periphery of the crowd, thought about it carefully, and muttered: "No wonder I got a fortune from class today, I should have been here." ”
Not to mention Schröding's study of divination, after Yin Shu got rid of the troublemakers at the beginning, he persuaded the others one by one to leave, and came back to kneel and worship until dusk.
The committee was also shocked, Wang Hanshan, Gu Zhongchi and others visited the official offices of the members in various places, all discussing the matter with each other, and Zhao Xianglu and others went to the scene to watch, and they were greatly admired when they came back.
Several committee members went to look for Director Shang together, and Director Shang, who was worried that there was no topic, immediately made a decision and quickly convened the second committee meeting.
In the end, there were 21 committee members present, and Butcher, Luo Jun, Xie Zhen, and Lingyuan Daoist did not have time to attend the meeting, and Deacon Shang was authorized to exercise his voting rights.
Yin Shu's behavior caused the committee members to have a great change in their perception of the Huximen disciples, and it was easy to vote and pass a new proposal: withdraw the original proposal, hoping that the Changshi Study would reconsider the punishment as appropriate.
When this review and correction bill was sent directly to Changshi's study, it immediately caused cheers.
Of course, Gu Zuo is as good as a stream, and he likes it the most. In front of everyone's eyes, an old official came out and summoned Yin Shu into Changshi's study to talk.
The course of the conversation is unknown, but the result was a relief to the audience and to the satisfaction of the committee.
Gu Changshi signed the latest verdict:
Rather than break the sea of qi and abolish the cultivation, and return to Huximen to support Tiannian. In view of the virtues displayed by Yin Shu, it was agreed that he would succeed him as a member of the division and demote him from a standing committee member to an ordinary member.
Several disciples of the Five Tigers Broken Mountain Sect who participated in the rebellion and were captured were also pardoned for capital crimes, abolished their cultivation and returned to the sect for control, and several disciples who did not report it were punished to serve in the spirit stone vein for three months as a warning.
When the verdict was announced, everyone was overjoyed, as if they were the ones who had been pardoned. And on the third day that most people didn't realize, the Changshi Mansion issued the latest notice to Liu Xuanji, promoting him from a judicial record to a judicial army, and officially becoming a seven-rank member.
Immediately afterwards, in the martial arts arena, the Nanwu Prefecture Anti-Beast Model Commendation Conference was held under the attention of nearly 2,000 people, Gu Zuo personally awarded a certificate of merit to the seventy-two anti-models who won the honorary title, and all seventy-two anti-models have obtained the right to purchase one hundred shares of the Nanwu Mountain vein, which also means that from now on, they can obtain about sixty spirit stones every year, which is equivalent to five to six per month, for most of the anti-models, this represents a guarantee that can almost announce the retirement of the rivers and lakes.
At this point, Gu Zuo reduced the shares of Huaixian Pavilion to seventy percent, that is, more than 90,000 spirit stones per year, and seventy-two more names were added to the list of shareholders.
Gu Zuo looked at the list and said to the butcher: "Since Hengling International, the Nanwu ore vein is about to become a public ore vein. ”
After the award, it was already October, and Cheng Shanhu came to see Gu Zuo and said, "Now that everything is stable in Nanwu Prefecture, I should also take leave." ”
Gu Zuo had already noticed the cultivation status of Chengshan Tiger, so he nodded: "Retreat well, strive for the Dan, if the Huaixian Pavilion wants to truly become the master of Nanwu Prefecture that no one dares to challenge, we need to have a golden pill that keeps popping up, I have great hope for you." ”
Cheng Shanhu expressed his determination and said: "With the words of the little uncle, the disciple will not go out if he does not break the golden pill!"
After expressing his determination, he handed over a submission from the military division: "This should be the last submission during the disciple's foundation building period, and it is recommended that Senior Brother Su should be in charge of the military division until the disciple is out of the customs." ”
