Chapter 606 Punishment

Hearing Deputy Hall Master Xu's question, Lu Chaoxian glanced at Zhang Xiaohua, not knowing whether he should tell the truth, Zhang Xiaohua saw it, took a step forward, and arched his hand without humility or arrogance: "I have seen Deputy Hall Master Xu, and below is the Tianmu Peak Grass Medicine Boy Ren Yao." ”

Deputy Hall Master Xu looked at Zhang Xiaohua with interest, and said, "I'm not asking your name, I just want to know that you Weishenme is so bold that you dare to come late openly." ”

Zhang Xiaohua said: "Before saying the reason, let's say a word first. ”

"Well, you name it. Deputy Hall Master Xu nodded.

"This is my senior brother of the grass department, he didn't come late just now, but after arriving, he found that I didn't come, and he went back to look for me, I thought, if the hall master is guilty, he will have to bear it in the next force, what do you think?"

Deputy Hall Master Xu clapped his hands and said, "Okay, since you are a little medicine boy who knows how to repay your kindness, why can't I, the hall master, distinguish between right and wrong? Since he can remember that you are still absent as a junior brother, I am afraid that you will be punished by something, so he took the risk to find you, which is a commendable thing in itself, and this is exactly the care I just talked about, and his reasons are so sufficient, I naturally will not punish him." ”

Then he looked back at Lu Chaoxian and said, "What he said is true?

Lu Chaoxian panicked and said: "What Senior Brother Ren said is true, when I came to this courtyard just now, I didn't know that it was Deputy Hall Master Xu that you wanted to give us a lecture, until I saw your old man sitting here drinking tea, then I knew that the matter was serious, so I hurried back to find Senior Brother Ren." ”

"Good, righteous man. Deputy Hall Master Xu patted Lu Chaoxian's shoulder and said, "Go back, since you can tell that I was drinking tea just now, naturally I really arrived in the courtyard on time, and this reason is obvious." ”

Lu Chaoxian looked at Zhang Xiaohua, his eyes flickered a few times, and he just said something to Deputy Hall Master Xu, but Zuihou didn't have the courage to say it, and hurriedly walked to the front of the crowd with his head down.

At this time, Deputy Hall Master Xu smiled and said to Zhang Xiaohua again: "What about you, do you have any high-sounding reasons?"

Zhang Xiaohua shook her head and said, "When Deputy Hall Master Xu summoned us, I was indeed not in the house, but I didn't go far, just in the grove behind the courtyard, I just coveted the beautiful scenery of Baiyue Peak for a while, and forgot the time. ”

"Hehe" Deputy Hall Master Xu smiled: "You still listen to the vassal elegance, you can actually enjoy the beautiful scenery of the grove? I don't know how many times I have passed by that forest in a year, why have I never noticed the difference?"

Zhang Xiaohua said: "The beautiful scenery is inadvertent, Deputy Hall Master Xu only cares about the affairs of the hall, where is there leisure to look at the wildflowers on the roadside?"

"Well, you're right, the affairs in the heart hall are that you go to the Youlan Grand Canyon, and I also want to tell you about the precautions, how can I see the beautiful scenery in your eyes?"

Hearing this, Zhang Xiaohua's mind flashed the pile of torture instruments in the dungeon on the top of Baiyue Peak for no reason, and her eyes shrank: "Not long after I arrived at the Chuan Xiang Sect, I still don't know this canon well, and I also ask Deputy Bishop Xu to teach it." ”

"Look, I know that this canon should be studied on the first day of the Chuan Xiang Sect, and the canon must be firmly memorized, if you can memorize the canon earlier, how can you make today's mistakes?"

Zhang Xiaohua was speechless, who had come to preach incense for so long, who had mentioned a word of the canon to herself? This is not her own fault, as long as she bowed down again: "What the deputy hall master Xu taught is that he also asked the deputy hall master Xu to send it down." ”

Deputy Hall Master Xu was very satisfied with his attitude, and said with a twisted beard: "Well, although I made a mistake, I can change it when I know it, and my attitude is very good." Your mistakes can range from neglecting your commander to a few days of hard labor, or disobeying the orders of the master, or lashing eighty times, or breaking your hamstrings. ”

With a sound of "Si", Zhang Xiaohua gasped and said secretly: "No wonder there are so many torture instruments in the dungeon, and this punishment is too severe, but it is just that you have to break your hamstrings when you are a little late, it is really inhumane, listening to his tone, it seems that there is still room for things, hum, it's better not to provoke the master to get angry, otherwise you will make a big fuss about Bai Yuefeng." ”

Now, Zhang Xiaohua no longer cares about what is low-key, and his heart is crossed, as long as Deputy Hall Master Xu dares to take him, he will exert his power and kill Bai Yuefeng.

Sure enough, Deputy Hall Master Xu's tone changed, and he said: "But you are still young, you are a newcomer, you lack the key, and you don't understand the rules in the sect, well, the key is that punishment is not the goal, but only a means, it is our goal to punish the past and the future to cure the disease and save people, in addition, you also have to participate in the 'Youlan Twilight Practice', the hall master will allow you to make meritorious contributions, as long as you pick the hundred-year-old 'Ice Spirit Grass', I will be exempted from your punishment."

"Hundred-year-old Ice Spirit Grass?" Zhang Xiaohua was stunned for a moment, even all the disciples in the audience are all looking at me, I look at you, although there is an incredible look in his eyes, and he is also muttering a little in his mouth, but under the majesty of Deputy Hall Master Xu, no one dares to turn their heads and ears.

Ice Spirit Grass is one of the main medicines for refining "Jade Return Pill", this is what Zhang Xiaohua knows, but can you easily find a century-old Ice Spirit Grass in the Youlan Grand Canyon, Zhang Xiaohua doesn't use her head, just uses her own heels, well, or look at the expressions of everyone in the audience, Zhang Xiaohua just knows that this is definitely not a very easy thing. However, it seems that Zhang Xiaohua has no choice, he will either agree to Deputy Hall Master Xu's suggestion and "be guilty of meritorious service", or accept Deputy Hall Master Xu's punishment and accept the torture of "breaking the hamstrings", needless to say, the latter will definitely force Zhang Xiaohua to kill Bai Yuefeng and completely disrupt Zhang Xiaohua's original Jihua.

There is no need to think about it at all, Zhang Xiaohua immediately chose the former, although the hundred-year-old ice spirit grass is rare, but there may not be one in the Youlan Grand Canyon, of course, if there is really none, then it is okay to fight at that time.

So Zhang Xiaohua arched his hand and said: "In this case, thank you to Deputy Hall Master Xu for his great kindness and permission to make up for his merits." ”

"Well, Ren Xiaoyao, I like to bring my juniors the most, if you can pick a hundred-year-old ice spirit grass, I will immediately exempt you from punishment. Deputy Hall Master Xu smiled, with an imperceptible taste in his eyes: "Of course, if you can't pick qualified Ice Spirit Grass, then don't blame the iron-faced selflessness of our Incense Sect canon." ”

Zhang Xiaohua nodded and said, "That's exactly how it should be." ”

"Well, you go down, I hope you live up to my expectations. Deputy Hall Master Xu waved his hand, but he didn't know if he hoped that Zhang Xiaohua would be able to pick the Ice Spirit Grass, or if he couldn't pick the Ice Spirit Grass?

Zhang Xiaohua bowed again, looked up and walked back, and along the way, his eyes were full of schadenfreude, until he came to the disciple of Zhongtian Mu Peak, and his eyes were changed to worry.

As soon as Zhang Xiaohua stood still, Deputy Hall Master Xu on the stage announced the disbandment and asked the disciples who participated in the trial to go back to their houses, as if the purpose of this lecture was to find trouble for Zhang Xiaohua.

Along the way, Zhang Xiaohua didn't speak, just walked with his head down, but Lu Chao blamed himself alone now, complaining from time to time that he was stupid, he didn't expect Zhang Xiaohua to go to the grove behind the courtyard, and complained that he shouldn't have dragged Zhang Xiaohua to the venue, if he didn't come, how could the disciples of these hundreds of people find that there were two people missing? Or if he didn't come to find Zhang Xiaohua, Zhang Xiaohua would naturally not come to the venue, if this person didn't come, even if Deputy Hall Master Xu was sharp-eyed, he might not be able to know

The disciples next to him were also worried, but they didn't speak, until they reached the hut where Zhang Xiaohua and Lu Chao were now living, and a few disciples looked at no one around before they said: "Senior Brother Ren, you are miserable, although this Youlan Grand Canyon is rich in spiritual grass, it doesn't take five years to go in and pick it, and if it is a long year, it will be picked a long time ago, not to mention the hundred-year-old ice spirit grass, even the fifty-year-old one is rare." ”

At this time, Lu Chaoxian said again: "It's all my fault, Senior Brother Ren, if I don't pull you over, there will definitely be no such thing, I ...... I ......"

Lu Chaoxian "me" for a long time, but he didn't say a complete word.

Zhang Xiaohua said with a smile: "Senior Brother Lu, don't worry, you are doing this for my good, how can I not know? I can't thank you in my heart, how can I blame you? The senior brothers are also very reasonable, but since the hall master has put the problem where he is, the younger brother can only take it, and if you want to blame the younger brother, it can only be regarded as fate. ”

All the disciples sighed when they heard it, in fact, hundreds of people usually stay in this courtyard, very depressed, there are already many disciples who go out to hang out, but they don't find that anyone will give them a big hat that violates the rules, Zhang Xiaohua doesn't go out on weekdays, just walked like this, and was arrested. It's just that Deputy Hall Master Xu said it even more high-soundingly, and all the disciples, even together with Zhang Xiaohua, were speechless.

Then, Zhang Xiaohua comforted everyone again: "Don't worry about me, since the previous Senior Brother Lu Lihong Lu was able to pick hundreds of years of old ginseng in the Grand Canyon, maybe I can also get the hundred-year-old ice spirit grass." ”

A thin disciple next to him listened, and interjected: "I occasionally heard the seniors of the grass department say that Senior Brother Lu got the old ginseng by great chance, it was after he collected some medicinal herbs in the area where the herbs were collected, and he felt that there was nothing too rare spirit grass, so he took the risk, relied on his martial arts, forcibly broke out of the safe area, and ran to a forest far away before encountering it." ”

"But even in that forest, when some brothers who heard the wind went again, they found nothing more, and after being killed by the beasts, they did not dare to go out of the safe area again. ”

"Oh? I see. Zhang Xiaohua somewhat understood.
