Chapter 144: Questioning in the Temple
In a hazy light, three figures walked in from outside.
As far as the eye can see, there are many people standing or sitting in the huge hall, but the most eye-catching thing is the statue of Sanqing God in the deepest part of the hall.
In front of the main hall, the lit incense candles burned silently, and wisps of green smoke wafted up.
Xiao Yicai led the two of them to the hall, saluted Dao Xuan, and said, "Master, Sect Master Qiu and Senior Brother Zhang have arrived. ā
In the hall, there was a sudden whisper, and all eyes moved over.
Qiu Liluo frowned slightly, nodded to Daoxuan, walked to his place and sat down.
Dao Xuan looked down expressionlessly, and saw that between the crowd on both sides, a young man in white was standing there alone, his eyes flickering, a little afraid and nervous, and his hands were also tightly clenched into fists.
Is this the orphan who made everyone's eyes go back then?
Dao Xuan sighed in his heart and slowly spoke: "Zhang Xiaofan." ā
Zhang Xiaofan's body trembled slightly, slowly knelt down, and replied in a low voice: "The disciple is here." ā
Dao Xuan looked at him silently and said: "At the request of the sect master of the Heavenly Dao Sect, now all the masters of the righteous path are gathering Qingyun for you, and the presiding monk of Tianyin Temple, Puhong, also appeared for this, and the incense valley ......"
Dao Xuan's etiquette is very thoughtful, but it also invisibly puts Qiu Li on the fire, giving people a feeling of bullying.
During this period, Qiu Liluo clearly felt the gaze of looking at him one after another, and his emotions were quite complicated.
There are doubts, there are surprises, there are fears, there are disdain...
However, there was no turmoil in his heart, and his whole mind was on the young man in the field.
Gradually, Dao Xuan's voice stopped.
After a moment of silence, everyone's eyes moved away from Qiu Liluo's body and turned to the figure kneeling on the ground.
Zhang Xiaofan slowly lowered his head, staring at the green brick in front of him, and suddenly felt sad in his heart, and that feeling made him feel helpless.
In the distance, the "dementor" who was lying quietly on the table next to Dao Xuan also seemed to feel the master's thoughts, and a faint light flashed.
"Zhang Xiaofan, now I ask you a few things, you must answer honestly!" Dao Xuan looked at the young man below and slowly spoke.
Zhang Xiaofan said in a low voice: "Yes." ā
Dao Xuan seemed to be considering his words, and after a while, he asked: "On this trip to Liupo Mountain in the East China Sea, a fellow Daoist of Tianyin Temple recognized the Dao method you used, and it turned out to be the Great Burning Boruo that was never passed on, but is there such a thing?"
Zhang Xiaofan was silent, didn't speak, just stared at the green brick in front of him.
Qiu Liluo frowned slightly, looked at Tian Buyi not far away, and found that he twisted his body very uncomfortably, but his eyes did not take his eyes off Zhang Xiaofan.
The air in the hall, at this moment, seemed to freeze, and faintly, something could be heard beating.
After a while, Zhang Xiaofan's voice sounded: "Yes!"
"What?
Suddenly, the hall was in an uproar, although it had been known for a long time, but from Zhang Xiaofan's mouth, it was even more shocking. The monks of Tianyin Temple were all angry, only Puhong, Pukong and Faxiang had unchanged expressions and were silent.
Qiu Liluo looked at the people who were in an uproar, and found that only Lu Xueqi's face remained unchanged, biting her lip and looking at the silent figure, without saying a word.
On the side of Dazhu Peak, all of them were pale, Tian Buyi's body shook a little, but there was a ray of happiness in Tian Ling'er's eyes.
Dao Xuan's eyes turned cold, and he raised his hand to signal the noisy crowd to calm down, and then spoke again: "In addition, some people say that the dragon ball on the top of your magic weapon is the evil bloodthirsty bead of the Demon Sect, but is it true?"
As he spoke, he raised his hand and picked up the crimson golden stick.
After another silence, Zhang Xiaofan replied in a low voice: "Yes." ā
This time, no one made any more noise, and they all remained silent, no one could believe that such an evil thing would actually be on the outstanding disciples of Qingyun Sect.
Dao Xuan's face gradually turned cold, and his eyes became even colder: "Do you have anything to say?"
Although he thought of this situation, when facing it, Zhang Xiaofan's mind was still blank, and his body trembled slightly.
"I, Iā" He couldn't even say a word at the moment.
Dao Xuan glanced at Qiu Liluo, whose face remained unchanged, and then said coldly, "How did you get this bloodthirsty pearl?"
Zhang Xiaofan buzzed in his head, and suddenly there was chaos, and finally he was no longer silent, but told the things that he had strayed into the valley that day.
On the top of the main hall, everyone looked at each other, and even the heads and elders of the various sects frowned.
It was the first time they had heard of such a strange thing that two murderous objects could smelt each other and turn into a murder weapon, and they couldn't help but be suspicious in their hearts.
However, when he saw Zhang Xiaofan's eyes glazed and his expression was lost, he didn't look like a liar.
Dao Xuan pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, I believe it, but this bloodthirsty bead has long been on you, but you are just a young son, where did you come from such a murderous thing, and you are not disturbed by it?"
Zhang Xiaofan's body trembled, raised his godless eyes, and opened his mouth, but he couldn't speak.
That kind old monk, although he was only a one-night fate with him, in Zhang Xiaofan's heart, he was like Tian Buyi, his master.
He still remembers the promise he made that night: he won't say anything about death!
Don't say anything about death!
Even if it's death, I won't say it!
"Say!"
There was a loud shout, and the sound shook all around.
Turning his head to look, he saw Tian Buyi stand up suddenly, his face full of anger, and his white hair fluttering behind his head.
He didn't know how Qiu Liluo would save Zhang Xiaofan, but now he could only follow his own plan, as long as he said it, he might be able to save his life.
Qiu Liluo looked at Tian Buyi, who was full of anger, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: This is really unbearable.
As long as everything develops according to the progress of the interrogation, he also confessed to him yesterday, but Tian Buyi still couldn't help it, and wanted to force Zhang Xiaofan in another way to protect him.
Qiu Liluo sighed and looked at the stubborn young man: "Xiaofan, say it." ā
However, Zhang Xiaofan seemed to be in the middle of an evil spirit, slowly lowered his head, and said nothing, the look of wanting to hide everything instantly made everyone change color, especially the people in Dazhufeng.
Qiu Liluo's opening did not change the situation, and Zhang Xiaofan remained silent.
Dao Xuan glanced at Qiu Liluo thoughtfully, then swept over the few people who were silent in Tianyin Temple, and said, "In addition, where did you learn the Great Burning Wave True Method on your body?"
These words directly named the root of today's events, and everyone's minds were instantly closed, and they all stared at the young man tightly.
However, Zhang Xiaofan was still silent, kneeling there for a long time, without saying a word.
It's like asking about the origin of the bloodthirsty beads.
