Chapter 231: On Trial
"Young Master Yang, what are you doing here?" asked one nervously.
The man in red smiled lightly, pointed at Xiao Chen with a folding fan in his hand, and asked, "Is this person Xiao Chen?"
"Exactly! I'll arrest this person on the orders of Liu Shaosi, and you won't give way!" said the other man with his head raised his head, but he was obviously lacking in confidence.
The man in red shook his head and smiled: "That's it, it's none of your business here, leave this person to me, and I'll bring it in directly." ”
The expressions on the faces of the two imperial envoys became very nervous, and the man on the left said: "We have worked hard to bring this person back, of course, it is handed over to Liu Shaosi, do you want to take it directly to invite merit?"
"I'll just say it once, people stay, you two, get out. The man in red said lightly.
"You, don't deceive people too much!" the envoy on the right said angrily, secretly carrying the true yuan as he spoke.
The man in red said lightly: "What? Do you want to do it with me?" At the end of the words, the folding fan waved lightly, and a fiery force hit the man, and with a bang, he directly knocked him away.
The imperial envoy on the left was furious, pointed at him and said, "Yang Yanyu, don't be so blind! This person was brought back by us who almost lost our lives!"
The man in red looked cold, didn't say much nonsense, and directly flicked his fingers, and a blazing red light shot out, knocking him away.
"Dare to call our company by name, no big or small. ”
After that, Yang Yanyu glanced at Xiao Chen lightly: "Let's go, don't look at it." ”
"Cut. Xiao Chen sneered, walked up, and said in his heart: Dog eats dog, a mouthful of hair.
Yang Yanyu's eyes were cold: "Cut?" coldly flicked his sleeves and followed.
On the road, Xiao Chen pondered carefully, and heard Fengxi say before he came, there are many branches of the Wanxian League, and the official position is from the bottom to the top, the most common is the messenger, who has no power, just patrolling and taking people, and a little higher is the imperial envoy, who is responsible for going out to arrest important criminals.
Further up is the chief envoy, and the chief envoy is the young secretary, the young secretary is the boss of a branch, and there are also the envoys, the elders, the elders, the four spirit envoys, etc., anyway, the official is the first level to crush people.
Passing through the square above, Xiao Chen followed Yang Yanyu to a grand hall, and there were many people standing on both sides of the hall, who should be the people of the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance and the outstanding disciples of the various righteous sects.
There are five white jade platforms suspended in the hall, and on each platform is an old man sitting cross-legged, and below are the famous elders of various sects, even the old monk Master Xuanji of Wuyin Temple is there, and on the left there are people from Zuoqiu's family and some jurors holding documents, and there are also a few people from the Ling family, and on the right there are Qingchen Zhenren and Fengxi and others, as well as the jury.
"Brother Xiao Chen, we are here. ”
Xiao Chen suddenly heard Murong Xian'er's voice, followed the sound and looked, and saw Qingluan and them standing on top of a big tree, just in time to be able to see the situation in the hall through the window, but they didn't expect Qingchen Zhenren to be behind them, but they arrived first.
Yang Yanyu also followed the voice, and couldn't help but feel a stir in his heart: "If you can get one of the three beautiful women, what more can you ask for?" But then she put away the conjecture in her heart, coughed, and led Xiao Chen to the main hall.
Walking into the hall, I saw him bow his head and arch his hand: "Young Master Yang of the Flame Department, Xiao Chen has been brought." ”
Taiqing, the chief judge on the jade platform at the head of the hall, had a soft face, nodded slightly, and the two envoys beside him gave a glance, Yang Yanyu immediately stepped aside, and the two councillors brought Xiao Chen to the "defendant" seat.
The elders of all sects and sects all looked at it, and thought in their hearts: "Is this person Xiao Chen?" When he arrives here, his face will not change, and it is indeed somewhat similar to the rumors in the outside world, but it is a pity that there are no such courageous disciples under his own sect. ”
Xiao Chen's eyes swept slightly, the five people on the jade platform, the chief judge Taiqing should have a Silent Annihilation Realm cultivation, and the four Taiqing envoys next to him should be the Yuanying Realm, I have to say that although that Taiqing looks soft and seems to be very talkative, ordinary cultivators are still a little pressured to enter this hall.
Inside and outside the hall, everyone looked serious, the atmosphere was a little tense, Xiao Chen looked at Zuo Qiu Ping and Zuo Qiu Que and others on the opposite side with sinister faces, and secretly said in his heart that it was not good, Zuo Qiu Que was a fourth-order medicine king, looking at the entire Central Continent, it was an existence that could not be ignored, and it would not have already bought off the chief judge, right?
It is not uncommon for some wealthy businessmen to spend money to buy off the government mansion in the mortal world, let alone in this cultivation realm?
A red-clothed envoy on the left looked at Zuo Qiu Ping and said, "Present the form." ”
"Yes, sir. Zuo Qiuping immediately took out a small jade slip from his sleeve, and the jade slip slowly floated into the air, and finally floated in front of the red-clothed envoy.
The red-clothed envoy tapped his fingertips slightly, and the jade slip immediately appeared a curtain of light, which was full of words, he glanced at it, and handed the jade slip to the other three envoys.
After the four of them finished reading, they glanced at each other, and the red-clothed envoy from before lifted his breath and shouted: "Bold Xiao Chen!
This sudden drink startled the people who were interrogating outside the hall, if it weren't for Xiao Chen's keen sense, he should also be taken aback, only to see his voice stretched long, and said casually: "Grass people...... I don't know!"
As soon as these words came out, more than a dozen parliamentarians and celebrities of various factions frowned, and the people who were judged outside the palace also looked at each other, how could he answer like this?
"Presumptuous!" the red-clothed envoy sighed in a deep voice, and the majesty was fully revealed.
Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows, and said lightly: "That jade slip is only shown to you, and you don't say what is written on it, how do I know what is written?
More than a dozen councillors suddenly turned extremely ugly, and they also whispered outside the hall: "This person is really bold, is the backstage very hard?"
"I heard that it is a disciple of the Gu Immortal clan who has been training outside. ”
"No, no wonder it's so dragged. ”
The red-clothed envoy was also stunned, after trying the case for decades, he had never met such a bullish person, and said coldly: "Okay! Six days ago, you and unknown people broke into Zuoqiu's house, killing a total of 74 people, resulting in the loss of dust beads, you are guilty!"
Xiao Chen smiled coldly, seventy-four people? This Zuoqiu family counts those people who were affected by the fish pond on their heads, right?" raised his eyebrows: "You can say whatever he writes, the Lord Tai will not take anyone's benefits, right?"
As soon as he said this, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly froze, and even the people outside the hall felt a chill, how could he talk to the envoy like this?
I saw that the red-clothed envoy was angry, and pointed at him with two fingers: "Bold......!
Before his words fell, the Taiqing at the head of the hall coughed, still with a soft face, and said slowly: "Xiao Chen, you have the right to refute, and you can say it." ”
The interrogators outside the palace were all surprised, this Lord Taiqing was inevitably too polite, right? In the past, even if the Yuan Infant cultivator dared to be so presumptuous, then he had to be punished first, could it be that this person's background was really hard?
Xiao Chen's face did not change, and he took a deep breath and said: "When I passed through Canglan City that day, the Zuoqiu family detained a friend in Xia for no reason, and later someone came to chase and kill him in the Changyin Mountain Range, but this person did not die at the hands of Xia, in addition, it is pure nonsense to say that Xiao killed seventy-four of them!"
When he said this, he glanced at Zuo Qiuping, and continued: "Xiao has warned many times, as long as they let go of their friends, the matter will be written off, but they insist on stopping it, and their Taizu even wants to take away the next one, but unexpectedly, the person in the demon path suddenly appeared, and the dust beads were lost, Xiao must be blamed!"
After his words, he denied the "facts of the crime", some of the famous people in the hall nodded, some shook their heads, and the Taiqing of the head of the hall stroked his beard and nodded slightly.
At this moment, the testimony of the two sides is different, the four envoys began to discuss, and there were discussions outside the hall, after quieting down, Zuoqiu Ping got up and gave his hand, and said with a sad face: "My Zuoqiu family has guarded the dust beads for nearly a thousand years, and there is no merit and hard work, this person killed my grandson, not to mention, but also killed seventy-four people of my clan, please Lord Taiqing is the master!"
The four envoys discussed again for a moment, and the Taiqing at the head of the hall said: "According to the legal records, the matter between Zuo Qiu Ze and Xiao Chen and the Zuo Qiu family later is a personal grudge, and the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance has no right to intervene ......."
Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Zuo Qiu Ping hurriedly said: "But the dust beads are lost, this person must be related to the Demon Dao, otherwise it would not be such a coincidence, please Taiqing Lord to find out!"
Na Taiqing nodded: "This is ......" After that, he looked at Xiao Chen: "Someone saw that you had a close relationship with a demon demon girl that day, and even saw you save her with your own hands, do you have anything to say about this?"
At this time, everyone looked at Xiao Chen, something related to the Demon Dao, then it was no longer a trivial matter, if he was really related to the Demon Dao, no matter how hard the background was, he would be imprisoned in the immortal prison today, waiting for the elders to interrogate him seven days later.
Qingchen Zhenren and Feng Xi frowned, and several people from the Zuoqiu family and the Ling family all showed smug expressions on their faces, and they all thought: The rescue of Yu Linglong from Ye Wuxin's hands that day was witnessed by everyone, this time it depends on how you explain it.
"Say!"
Under the silence of the hall, a sharp sound suddenly sounded, startling everyone, everyone looked up, and saw Lord Taiqing, who had always had a soft face, was full of gloom at the moment, and it was terrifying.
