Chapter 358: Judgment (1)
With the sound of a breaking wind, Luo Youbi and the others landed at the gate of the Qingxuan Palace, except for a few elders and disciples guarding the door, everyone else strode towards the main hall together.
Ma Fangyu's mood was heavy and nervous at this time, it was the first time for him to be judged, and he was inevitably a little uncomfortable in his heart, and he didn't know what he would face next.
What is certain is that this must not be as easy as fighting a battle, and if you say the wrong thing, you may be in danger of your life.
Ever since Luo Youbi, Bai Ziweng and Ma Fangyu entered the main hall, they have become the focus of everyone, especially Ma Fangyu, and all kinds of complicated eyes have converged on him.
Being stared at by the helmsmen of the various peaks, Ma Fangyu looked extremely uncomfortable, and their eyes seemed to condense not weak energy, which made Ma Fangyu feel a little breathless.
Luo Youbi and Bai Ziweng walked to their respective positions and sat down, while Ma Fangyu stood in the center of the main hall, and the afterglow first glanced at his master Feng Baili, and then transferred to the head Xia Dongxuan.
Ma Fangyu saluted everyone one by one, and finally bowed to Xia Dongxuan and said, "Participate in the master, master and uncle!"
After that, Xia Dongxuan didn't immediately let Ma Fangyu get up, but stared at him, not saying a word, no one knew what he was thinking.
Without an order, Ma Fangyu had no choice but to continue to bow down, thinking that they had to be silent, and they would be silent, and someone would always speak first.
After a stalemate for a moment, Ma Fangyu never spoke, which made everyone's faces a little unhappy.
Feng Baili really couldn't stand it, with a slight wave of his sleeve robe, Ma Fangyu only felt that he was held up by a gust of wind, his body straightened up involuntarily, and he thought that it must be his master's doing, so he looked at him, his eyes were full of relief.
Maybe his hope can only be pinned on him, if even he doesn't believe in himself, even if he has a hundred mouths, it will be difficult to argue.
"Senior Brother Feng, just for a while, can't he bear it?" Shan Xianhe was quite dissatisfied with what Feng Baili had done, and said coldly.
Feng Baili said with a smile: "I am his master, I let him get up, do you still have an opinion?"
Ma Fangyu was shocked, such an atmosphere was indeed tense, and as soon as he began to speak, he was already full of gunpowder.
Shan Xianhe was scolded back by the wind, but what he said made sense, so he had to remain silent for the time being.
At this time, Shi Yun, Long Shuang, Feng Qingluan, Long Qinyun, Zhang Tai, and Yue Lingke landed at the gate of the Qingxuan Hall one after another, but they were all stopped by the guards at the door, and they had to stay at the door, not knowing anything about what was happening inside.
Shi Yun was a moody person, he unabashedly showed a panicked look, pacing back and forth, while the others seemed much quieter.
Looking at the hall again, Xia Dongxuan, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke, "Don't you have anything to say to us?"
Ma Fangyu could hear that Xia Dongxuan wanted to let himself take the initiative to admit his mistakes, so that the punishment could be reduced. However, Ma Fangyu felt that there was nothing wrong, and naturally there was no mistake.
His eyes were firm, and he replied: "Master of the sect, the disciple has nothing to say." ”
Except for Feng Baili, many other people's faces were full of displeasure, and even Mo Sanxiao and Gu Xiangling, who had always been optimistic about Ma Fangyu, shook their heads.
It can be seen that Ma Fangyu has no intention of giving in, but if he is tough like him, even if he proves to be innocent in the end, he is afraid that he will not be able to get any good fruit to eat.
Sure enough, Xia Dongxuan already had a trace of anger on his face, he pointed at Ma Fangyu and said, "You are very calm, I hope the final result is as you think." ”
After speaking, Xia Dongxuan nodded to Zhu Yuduan, and Zhu Yuduan understood everything, so he walked to the center of the main hall, and with a swing of his robe, five corpses appeared on the ground out of thin air.
These five corpses were the five personal disciples who had died before, and I don't know what method he used, but the corpses remained intact.
When Ma Fangyu saw this corpse, a picture instantly appeared in his mind, it was when Wufu Village was slaughtered, and the death of these five people was exactly the same as them.
Could it all be done by the same person? Ma Fangyu guessed in his heart. If so, I'm afraid that the people who killed them must be hiding a big conspiracy.
"Presumably you know all these five disciples, they were all disciples who stayed in the Death Swamp with you that day, and now they are all dead except for you, how can this be explained?" Zhu Yuqian asked.
Hearing this, Ma Fangyu didn't look panicked at all, and recalled that when he was with them for the last time, he was indeed in the Swamp of Death. At that time, I heard a song, and I don't remember anything that happened afterward, and when I woke up again, I was in an inn in the city.
Presumably, these five people were killed during this period, and in addition to themselves and them, at least one other person was the one who played the tune.
Based on this, Ma Fangyu deduced that the murderer was likely to be the person who played the song, because he also lost consciousness after hearing the song. But after the murderer killed, he left himself alone and sent himself to the inn, all of which is a bit incredible. Chinese bar
Is it just to blame himself? Ma Fangyu thought about it again and again, and could only think of this answer.
Everyone saw that Ma Fangyu was deep in thought, and he didn't say a word for a long time, they expected that he had a ghost in his heart, and he didn't know how to talk.
Luo Youbi took the opportunity to say: "I think the matter is very clear, these five people all died at the hands of Ma Fangyu, so he can't argue with it." ”
When the words fell, Ma Fangyu immediately said: "Dare to ask Uncle Luo, can you see me kill with your own eyes?"
Luo Youbi was speechless for a while, and was stunned for a while before saying, "If I saw it with my own eyes, there would be no need to judge today." ”
Ma Fangyu nodded, "Since I didn't see it with my own eyes, then I am not a definite sinner, at most I am a suspect, why is Uncle Luo in such a hurry to convict me?"
Ma Fangyu's words were neither humble nor arrogant, which made Luo Youbi a little embarrassed, with a slight anger on her face, and said with a smile: "Since I said so, naturally there is some evidence, but you have to answer my question first." You're with them, why are they all dead and you're still alive?"
Hearing this, Ma Fangyu fell into deep thought. If he told the truth, he was afraid that he would make them think that the murderer had something to do with him, so he deliberately let him go, which would be even more inexplicable.
So, Ma Fangyu decided to panic, and replied: "Although they and I are both in the Death Swamp, we haven't been together all the time. The Swamp of Death is not small, they encountered the murderer, and I did not, so I avoided it, and the reason is as simple as that. ”
Ma Fangyu gave full play to his ability to lie, so that he couldn't see it for a while. Although it is a lie, it does have some truth, which makes Luo Youbi unable to refute it.
Luo Youbi then asked, "Then you were separated from them, didn't you look for them, why didn't you immediately return to the sect and choose to abscond?"
At this time, Ma Fangyu had already thought of the answer, and said: "After I found Xi Rui, I did go to look for them, but I didn't find them, and then I guessed that they should return to the sect on their own, so I didn't keep looking for them." I never dreamed that they would be murdered. As for not returning to the sect immediately, it wasn't that I was absconding, but that I had promised a senior to do something, and seeing that the time was approaching, there was no time to come back, so I took the initiative to do it. ”
After speaking, Ma Fangyu's eyes fell on Zhu Yuduan, and at this time, in order to prove his innocence, he had to pull him in.
The reason why Ma Fangyu didn't say Zhu Yu directly was to give the other party a face, after all, he still needs to say it himself.
Of course, if in the end, Zhu Yudu refuses to stand up for himself, then he has no scruples.
Hearing this, Zhu Yuwan already knew what Ma Fangyu was referring to, the predecessor in his mouth must be himself, and the thing to do was to save his apprentice Bai Yudie, but he never thought that all this had developed to this point.
The white feather butterfly is actually a demon clan, and this matter has long been passed back from the Qiankun Gate. When Zhu Yuqian first heard the news, his face turned pale, he had always been jealous and hateful, and there was no room for sand in his eyes, and he would inevitably kill the demon clan.
Even if Bai Yudie is the closest person to him, if he sees him next time, he will draw his sword and face each other, this is the insistence in his heart.
"There is no evidence, who are you going to help with?" At this time, Shan Xianhe took over and said.
After hearing this, Ma Fangyu chose to remain silent, hoping that Zhu Yu would be able to come out and tell the truth.
"What, do you have nothing to say?" Shan Xianhe saw that Ma Fangyu was silent, and asked again.
There was another short silence, and everyone began to judge that Ma Fangyu was lying, and Zhu Yuqian finally stood up at this moment.
"You don't have to ask him about this, I can answer you, because the predecessor in his mouth is me, and I want him to do something. ”
After speaking, Zhu Yudu took out a letter from himself, which was written by Bai Yudie himself, and first handed it to Xia Dongxuan. Then he explained to everyone: "The letter said that my apprentice will be forced to marry by the family not long ago, and in order to refuse this marriage, she decided to die. In order to save her, I naturally let Ma Fangyu go. This happened half a year ago, and if I had known that she was a fox demon, I wouldn't have ignored it. ”
When everyone heard this, they were first briefly surprised, and then they all understood. Now that Zhu Yu came out to testify, and there is evidence, which just responds to what Ma Fangyu said, then Ma Fangyu's absconding in fear of crime does not exist.
Zhu Yudu has always been iron-faced and selfless, and he has no friendship with Ma Fangyu, and he advocated getting rid of him before, so no one will not believe his testimony.
Shan Xianhe had no choice but to keep silent, and Luo Youbi also miscalculated in his heart, and he didn't know what to say.
Xia Dongxuan handed over the letter to the others in turn to read, and after everyone read it, they all nodded.
Feng Baili's face slowed down, and he looked at Ma Fangyu, revealing a look of appreciation. He originally thought that he would bother to talk more for him, but he never thought that he didn't need to go out by himself, Ma Fangyu had already made the people who forced him to be deflated.
Sure enough, he had some ability, Feng Baili nodded with satisfaction, and continued to choose to wait and see, anyway, he had already decided, if it was not necessary, he would not make a move for the time being.
When Ma Fangyu heard Zhu Yuduan's words, his heart also changed a little about him, although he was old-fashioned and stubborn, but he was indeed selfless and righteous.
Of course, Ma Fangyu is still far from happy, he knows that there are more difficult problems waiting for him to solve.
