Chapter 215: Wrath
There was a long table large enough to accommodate more than a dozen people, as well as beautifully carved seats, and in the extremely delicately decorated hall, there were a few people with a silent expression.
The atmosphere inside was dreary, like the calm before a storm.
Syllable!
Suddenly, there was a loud sound, and the hearts of the people present suddenly tightened, they looked at each other, and then looked at the three-inch deep handprint on the table, and their hearts chuckled again.
Outside the door, the guards guarding their posts, after hearing this sound, their expressions remained unchanged, like clay carvings and wood sculptures, if it weren't for the weapons in their hands being pinched a little tighter all of a sudden, I am afraid that they can't see the wavering in their hearts, and the fear hidden in the deepest part of their subconscious.
This is a matter of course, because no one can, and no one dares to, ignore the anger of a general-level figure.
"General Ben gives you the opportunity to explain, but don't say nonsense that might anger me. ”
Sitting on the main seat representing the highest status, the fire general with a calm tone but a cold expression, his eyes were deep and looking ahead, the hand that had just been raised from the table was red, thousands of lines as thin as ants, and the extremely mysterious fire rune patterns slowly squirmed on the skin of the palm, as if there was life.
The jade desktop shows a depression flowing with red flames, as if it has been melted by volcanic magma.
Sitting on the right side of the table, Lu Buwei, who looked nervous, looked at General Huo's slowly withdrawn palm, cold sweat was dripping on his brow and forehead at the same time, and the hand that grabbed the chair Bing was getting harder and harder, which was a subconscious instinctive reaction.
Just now, the scorching wind passed by his face, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to move, for fear that he would be killed by the aftermath by accident, and his heart was extremely nervous.
He felt that he was about to collapse, and he never thought that the famous Fire General would actually appear in such a place and arrest the two of them in a fit of rage.
If he says the wrong sentence in the next half sentence, it will be difficult to ensure that the identity of the Purple Pattern Talisman Refiner will be able to ensure that he will be able to escape the catastrophe, and at that time, unless the city lord speaks in person, I am afraid that even the three major generals of the class will not be able to save his life from the hands of the fire general.
Lu Buwei swallowed his saliva, and after staring at the other side fiercely, he said with a little nervousness: "General Huo, the reason for this conflict is actually Meng Tianxing's willful behavior, and he was the first to do it, which can be proved by looking at the Tianyan talisman on the banyan tree on the street to prove that Meng Tianxing's evil deeds must have been recorded and difficult to hide!"
"Oh?"
General Huo's deep eyes looked at Lu Buwei, and sat there steadily, as if he hadn't even moved, like a thousand-year-old carved stone, exuding a vast and terrifying aura all over his body, even if it was an invisible pressure, in the moment of turning his eyes, it almost crushed Lu Buwei's spirit.
Breathing suddenly stagnated, Lu Buwei's back sweat flowed wildly, and he was almost unable to breathe at the moment, just the eye contact was enough to make the purple pattern alchemist tremble, and he had to succumb to this kind of power, if it wasn't for the fact that he still had a little confidence in the value of his own existence, he could almost imagine the scene of himself being torn to pieces.
But he also knew in an instant that if there was anything in his words that caused the Fire General's dissatisfaction, even a little bit, it was enough to make his head move, and this little possibility was whether his words were not untrue.
"I, I'm confused for a while, just now out of nervousness, I just talked nonsense, in fact, this conflict is the responsibility of me and Meng Tianxing, no, it's actually my responsibility, and please General Huo, your Excellency has a lot, spare my life!"
Lu Buwei finally couldn't bear the pressure anymore, pushed the seat away with a blank face, and then knelt down to the ground, looking at General Fire with pleading eyes.
"Huh. ”
General Huo's eyes were cold, but he let Lu Buwei kneel there, and turned to look at Meng Lao, who was silent, pale, and sitting on the left side of the table: "Meng Tianxing, what do you say differently?"
Meng Lao got up tremblingly, pushed away the seat, knelt on the ground bitterly, and kowtowed heavily, hitting his forehead on the floor with a loud muffled sound.
Meng had nothing to say, so he let the general punish him. ”
Raising his head again, he saw that his forehead was blurred with flesh and blood, and Meng Lao's expression was full of wry smiles, how should this question be answered? According to the rules of the forbidden area of the armor, the two of them had already violated at least a dozen rules, and it was the fire general who took it down personally, and the gray area that could be considered suddenly became a mountain of ironclad evidence, which could not be quibbled, and if it was covered up more, I was afraid that it would affect Hao'er.
The so-called military order is like a mountain, although the armor forbidden area is half of the military land, but it is also subject to military law, if it is an ordinary situation, or it is taken by the patrol, it can be used to use the identity of the purple pattern alchemist, but now it has collided with the fire general himself.
All of a sudden, the situation became out of control, and the consequences were unpredictable.
"Hmph! If kowtowing is useful, then what is the use of military law and military regulations? General, if you don't deal with them and let these two people go like this, I'm afraid that it will hurt the prestige of the army!"
Just when Meng Lao and Lu Buwei's faces were like ashes, waiting for General Huo's disposal, a voice as cold as ice and iron suddenly came from the left side of the long table and further back, but it came from a middle-aged man with a cold expression and a strong body.
Standing on the seat, the middle-aged man with a mocking face swept his gaze from Meng Lao and Lu Buwei, who were kneeling on both sides of the long table, and finally landed respectfully on the cold face of General Huo.
The middle-aged man said with a solemn expression: "My lord, these two talisman refiners of the Yanyu Pavilion are really too disagreeable, and I think that the responsibility of the Yanyu Pavilion must be jointly and severally investigated, and they must be severely punished! Now the battle on the front line is becoming more and more intense, but not only are they not united, improve the effect of talisman refining, and make some insignificant contributions to the army, but they will only fight and fight privately, if it spreads, it will only let the people of the academy and the government see our jokes!"
"Lin Chen! you-"
Hearing this, Lu Buwei, who continued to kowtow, raised his head suddenly, and looked at Lin Chen, who had cold eyes, in disbelief, but he was extremely stunned in his heart, part of the reason why he had a-for-tat confrontation with Meng Tianxing was because of the instigation of Lin Chen from the Elixir Zhai, he thought that the two should be similar to allies, but he didn't expect that the other party would fall into the well on such a life-and-death occasion.
At that moment, he wanted to ask Lin Chen's true intentions, but before all the words in his mouth could be spit out, his voice stopped abruptly, and his body suddenly stiffened, as if he was being targeted by a natural enemy, Lu Buwei suddenly felt that a death crisis was coming.
He turned his head stiffly, only to see the more cold gaze of the Fire General, and his heart trembled, and while scolding his own stupidity in his heart, he immediately lowered his head humbly.
Although Meng Lao didn't react too violently, after listening to Lin Chen's words, his body trembled slightly, and he also raised his head, but instead of looking at Lin Chen, the high-level of the Elixir Zhai, he looked at General Huo, but saw that General Huo's eyes were sharp, and there seemed to be magma flowing inside, which seemed to be ready to burst out at any time and incinerate people to ashes.
Meng Lao's face suddenly turned a little paler, and he lowered his head again and said nothing, as if he had lost the courage to argue.
"You are a purple-veined talisman refiner, and the whole dispute is over some petty profits, I have to say that General Ben is really disappointed. ”
Gently knocking on the table, General Huo first held his head and pondered for a moment, then raised his head, looked around at the people present, and said coldly, although the voice was not shocking, but it made the people present couldn't help but shudder, and the next words made Meng Lao and Lu Buwei's faces a little whiter.
"I don't care about the grievances and grievances between you, but you actually dare to offend the military regulations, even if you are a purple-veined talisman refiner with meritorious deeds, it is difficult to offset the sin, therefore, you must accept the punishment and bear the consequences!"
