Chapter 194: Investigation

The three elders stared at each other, and turned to look at the other two female disciples, although Yu Ying and Peng Duo were apprehensive, they tried to remain calm on their faces, and at the same time said, "We don't know about the two of them, and we ask the third elder to take a clear look......

Hearing this, the three elders withdrew their gaze from looking at them, landed on Ding Ling, who was kneeling, and said in a cold voice, "There is merit in reporting, and if you offset the merits and demerits, you can avoid a lot of punishment......

Ding Ling trembled, and Yu Ying and Peng Duo, who were standing, showed a little nervousness on their faces, staring at her deadly, for fear that she would say something unfavorable to her.

The third elder is not stupid, he can still see such an obvious targeted look, and at the same time understand what Ding Ling is worried about, and his tone is deliberately softened, "You should understand, we can protect you if you say it, but if you don't say it, it will only make those who are afraid of you say them restless, so as to attack you, as long as you say it, we will immediately monitor them, and they can't hurt you......"

Ding Ling trembled more and more, biting her lips tightly, almost biting blood, but just shook her head, "I only know that Jia Yi gave me the book, and I don't know about others......"

Unable to get the desired result, the three elders showed a bit of disappointment on their faces, and sighed softly, "Come on, detain the three of them separately, Elder Ben wants to ask them one by one, but if there is a sentence that does not match, they will be tortured directly!"

The three of them trembled suddenly, and Yu Ying and Peng Duo also knelt down, begging softly, "What did we do wrong? Why did the three elders detain the two of us?"

"If you don't report it, it's the same crime, if you find out something else, there will be more severe punishment waiting for you!"

Yu Ying had to say more, but the three elders looked impatient, and waved their hands to let the law enforcement disciples escort them down.

After the three of them completely disappeared from sight, Ah Lu walked out from behind the screen and quipped at the three elders with distressed faces, "I didn't expect that the three elders who have always been idle and addicted to books and scrolls would have such a cold and serious side, and the real people don't show their faces!"

The third elder got up, bowed to Ah Lu, and said calmly, "It's just to fulfill the master's entrustment, and I myself don't want to take over such a mess." ”

Ah Lu stared at him with a smile, the third elder Liu Xun was no more than twenty or thirty years old in appearance, with an elegant and gentle face, like an indifferent and elegant scholar in the mortal world, but she understood that these were just appearances.

"It's hard for the three elders, who have been covering themselves up for a hundred years, and they don't feel tired and panicked. ”

If it weren't for the investigation of the catastrophe in Shushan in the past, Elder Mishang would not have been so polite to Ah Lu, but now hearing her compete like this, he felt a little unhappy in his heart, and wanted to urgently drive the other party away from here.

"I don't know why the girl came?"

"I came to take a look when I had nothing to do, and I was relieved to see that the three elders were powerful. ”

The three elders stood with their hands in their hands, neither humble nor arrogant, "After all, he is the elder of Shushan, and he must always contribute to this." ”

"That's a good point, in fact, I really have an opinion on something I want to ask the third elder. ”

The third elder didn't look at her expression either, and only said lightly, "Excuse me." ”

Ah Lu didn't detour too much, and went straight to the road with a single knife, "The Great Elder, the Second Elder, and the Eighth Elder, what do the Third Elders think?"

The three elders raised their eyebrows slightly, as if they were displeased, "Xun never speaks to others behind his back, and asks the girl to be considerate." ”

"So I asked the others, did these three elders have the same before the retreat, but every time the moon is full, how long is the retreat?"

Hearing these questions, the third elder's expression eased slightly, these problems are known to many people in Shushan, but they are not a secret, and he quickly replied, "The Great Elder will retreat for three or five days every month, because he feels that the full moon is the time when the aura between heaven and earth is the strongest, and the Second Elder will also retreat every month, which is similar to the reason of the Great Elder, but because of his position, his retreat time is less, only two or three days, as for the Eighth Elder, it seems that he suddenly decided to retreat this time, but it seems that he rarely saw people before and after ......the full moon in the past."

Ah Lu nodded clearly, but now the Great Elder and the Eighth Elder have not yet come out, if the retreat is longer, they can recover from their injuries and come out again, but the retreat time will be much longer, which is also suspicious.

"Is the girl really suspicious of the three of them?"

Ah Lu smiled, "The Great Elder and the Eighth Elder are still to be determined, but the second elder is too abnormal, presumably the third elder also feels it, and the fourth elder, he seems to be more willing to listen to the second elder than the head, what does this third elder think?"

After all, they are the same sect, and the three elders inevitably have a little more maintenance between their words, "Because the four elders once went mad when they were in retreat and cultivating, they were devoured by the demons in their hearts, and they almost destroyed their cultivation, and it was mostly the second elder who checked the ancient books overnight to save him, and after that, the four elders trusted the second elder very much......"

Ah Lu's expression was straight, "You are the head of Shushan first, and then that person, if this kind of emotional grievance is brought to the affairs of Shushan, it is selfish." ”

The third elder sighed, "Even if you are an immortal cultivator, it is difficult to avoid these, as long as you have never stepped into the immortal gate, you will always be considered a mortal, and the seven emotions and six desires are always unavoidable......"

"The three elders can see it clearly, in this case, please see that Shushan is the place where you grew up, be serious......

"How do I not want to, but now this Shushan ......"

"The decrease in the number of beginner disciples every year has indeed put tremendous pressure on you Shushan, and you have been thinking about that high level, unwilling to run a merchant in the mortal world, and blindly relying on the wealth behind those disciples, which is causing the disciples to be recruited unevenly, such a situation is always unavoidable. ”

The third elder's heart stirred, and he accepted the contempt in his eyes, and saluted respectfully to Ah Lu again, "Now I believe in the identity of the girl......

Ah Lu chuckled, "I don't need you to believe it, I just don't want to watch the Shushan he worked so hard to save fall again, you are an understanding person, I don't want you to continue to be confused." ”

The third elder said, "Today's girl's words are really enlightening, I will go to the sixth elder to discuss what I just said, as for Jia Yi's matter, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find out the real person behind it......"

"It's okay, it's just that this matter is taking advantage of this matter to lead the vine and melon, and pull Shushan out of Shushan The deceived disciples, as for the last person, when the time comes, he will appear, but now he has to be extra vigilant. ”

The three elders nodded, feeling that it was the same, although everyone had the object of suspicion in their hearts, but the evidence had not yet arrived, and they could not be convicted for a while, so they could only pay more attention.

"The fifth elder is also working hard, it seems that Su Li is not wrong. ”

After Su Li handed over this matter to the three elders and the five elders, the five elders only went to the scene to take a look, and then they didn't know where to hide, of course, these are just used to confuse others, if Ah Lu guessed correctly, the five elders should now be in the Hall of Elders, secretly investigating the residence of each elder.
