Chapter 20 House Arrest
This kind of thing is only out of people's hearts, although Zhang Qing's intentions are sinister, but the means he uses are in accordance with the law, if you talk about evidence, it is naturally impossible to find out.
"Since the disciple is not guilty, then ask the elder to sentence Xu Jianyu for his crime. Zhang Qing put away his smiling face and said gloomily.
Elder Xing above the hall did not answer Zhang Qing's words, but swept his eyes over the six elders below and asked, "What do you think should be done?"
One of them got up and said, "Nian Xu Jianyu is still young, and because he was angered by Yu Qing's matter, he shot and injured people without control for a while, maybe he can be punished lightly." โ
"Elder Qi's words are wrong. A man at the opposite table stood up and said, "What rule in my door says that you can be punished lightly at a young age?"
"Although it is not, it is ......reasonable," Elder Qi replied with a frown.
"Now the reason is that the innocent Zhang Qing has suffered an unjustified disaster, and Xu Jianyu should not hurt innocent people for any reason! Therefore, she must be locked up in the Dark Cloud Cave, otherwise, where will the law be placed?"
Hearing these words, Xu Jianyu couldn't help but pale a little. However, she still took a step forward and said to Elder Xing: "Elder Xing, don't be embarrassed, just deal with it according to the law." โ
Seeing that Elder Xing seemed to be about to speak, Zhang Qing chuckled inaudibly.
"Wait. Yu Qing, who had been silent for a long time, said, "This elder said that Zhang Qing is an innocent person, I don't know where the word innocent begins?"
"He did not break the rules of the door, and he was innocent. The elder had already sat down, but he got up again and spoke.
"Zhang Qing sold the pill to Xu Jianyu to say that he needed some silver taels. Yu Qing's gaze turned to Zhang Qing, "I don't know what you want to do with silver?"
"This is my private matter, what do you do?"
"Is that a good reason?"
"Of course, I need to buy a magic weapon!"
"Not to mention whether the silver taels can buy a good magic weapon, but for cultivators, I'm afraid the pill is much more precious than the silver tael, why don't you just exchange it for the pill?"
"That man likes silver taels, how?"
"Okay, even if that person likes silver taels, then, what about the magic weapon you bought?"
Zhang Qing was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "The silver taels are not enough." โ
"Okay, let's leave this matter at that. Yu Qingdao said, "If I'm not mistaken, when you sold that pill to Xu Jianyu, you didn't explain the harm it would bring to people, which caused me to take the pill without knowing it, which caused my injury, so my injury was caused by you?"
Zhang Qing's face was gloomy and he didn't speak.
"Hmph, strong words!" the elder snorted coldly and said.
"Dare to ask the elder, where is the disciple's strong words?" Yu Qing said, "Since the disciple's injury was caused by Zhang Qing, if Zhang Qing had a calculating intention or not, did he intend to murder the disciple?"
"But how do you know he has a heart?" said the elder.
"The disciple just said, 'If yes.' Yu Qingdao said, "And things that are intentional or unintentional cannot be measured by evidence, so how can this Zhang Qing be innocent?"
The elder snorted coldly.
This was a very simple case, and when the two sides talked about this, they almost had nothing to say, and the rest was Elder Xing's final decision.
Although Elder Xing hadn't spoken yet, Yu Qing had almost already known the ending, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Although Xu Jianyu has a big heart on weekdays, this moment determines her life for a long time in the future, if she is imprisoned in the dark cloud cave, her future is really uncertain, so she can't help but look at Elder Xing a little nervously.
Zhang Qing had a gloomy face and didn't know what he was thinking.
Elder Xing pondered for a long time, and said: "Xu Jianyu hurt Zhang Qing, a disciple in the pavilion, it is an unforgivable crime, but Zhang Qing himself also has many faults and suspicious points, so the final execution is that Xu Jianyu was imprisoned in the torture hall under house arrest for three years, and he was not allowed to participate in this spiritual enlightenment meeting. โ
This is better than Yu Qing's expectation, so there is no surprise, but there is still some regret and unwillingness in his heart.
When Zhang Qing heard about this result, he was not very satisfied, the torture hall was in the Rain Viewing Pavilion, the air was good and the sun was still fresh, how could it be compared with the dark cloud cave that did not see the light of day all day long, and Elder Xing said that it was house arrest, so as long as the elder did not deliberately target her, in the torture hall, wouldn't she be as free as outside?
"If there are no objections, let that be the end of the day. Elder Xing said again.
The remaining six elders present were silent and did not speak, which meant that there was no objection. This is not to say that they agree with the result, but Elder Xing's performance today is obviously protecting Xu Jianyu, otherwise according to the normal situation, he should never just be imprisoned in the torture hall for three years, and he is still under house arrest.
Although Xu Jianyu was not very happy about the captivity, after all, he didn't have to enter the legendary dark cloud cave, so he naturally didn't have any dissatisfaction in his heart.
"The disciple obeys his fate. She said.
"The disciple obeys his fate. Zhang Qing bowed his head and said.
......
Yu Qing and Zhang Qing walked out of the palace gate, and the two parted ways, neither talking, nor even looking at each other, as if they didn't know each other at all.
Xu Jianyu was left behind and will be taken into the torture hall later.
Yu Qing was not very worried about Xu Jianyu's situation, judging from Fang Cai's verdict, it was obvious that it was Elder Xing who was protecting Xu Jianyu, as for the reason, although he was not very clear, he had heard that Elder Xing had always been decent, and there should be no conspiracy.
Xu Jianyu's house arrest and entry into the torture hall is equivalent to being banned from Elder Xing's territory, because Elder Xing is the highest elder of the torture hall.
There are four halls in Guanyu Pavilion, namely the Punishment Hall, the Auditorium, the Law Hall, and the Miscellaneous Hall. As the name suggests, the Torture Hall is a place to enforce the law and punish disciples who violate the rules of the door; the Auditorium is a ceremonial hall and is responsible for various external affairs, and the supreme elder is He Tai who took Yu Qing and others to Feixianmen to participate in the fighting meeting at that time; the duty of the Law Hall is to supervise the behavior of the disciples and elders in the pavilion, as well as to interpret and revise the law, and its supreme elder is Elder You; and the miscellaneous hall, although the name is very unearcut, it is in charge of the most things in the four halls, and it can intervene in almost everything, and its person in charge is not any elder, it is the master of the Guanyu Pavilion himselfใ
It stands to reason that Xu Jianyu is such a small case, and it is not at all bothering Elder Xing, the supreme elder of the Torture Hall, to take action, but the fact is that Elder Xing is indeed personally presiding over this case and favoring Xu Jianyu, so Xu Jianyu is imprisoned in the Torture Hall, maybe he will get a blessing in disguise and get a piece of creation.
Just thinking about it like this, Yu Qing had already left the Water Moon Pavilion.
Under the bright sky, a purple feather flew from afar, circled twice in front of him, and then flew away again.
Yu Qing knew that this was the boss calling him, so he strode forward.
