Confucian Sword Fairy

Chapter 67 lynching
In the law enforcement hall, in the dark and damp prison.

The smell of blood, rust, and all kinds of unpleasant smells are intertwined, making people uncomfortable.

The disciple of the Law Enforcing Hall who was leading the way said that he only had a quarter of an hour to visit, then turned and left, leaving Song Zhishu and Elder Mingyue behind.

Song Zhishu stood in front of the cell, looking at the familiar people in front of him, he couldn't help feeling angry.

The punishment is really too severe, even if trespassing on the Tiancong mountain range and stealing the elder's medicine field, it shouldn't be the case, right?
This is clearly torturing people to death.

In the prison cell, the hands and feet of the three Li Dao were bound by thick iron chains, their bodies were covered with scars, their breath was weak, and drops of blood were constantly gushing out of the pierced lute bone, which was shocking. Their faces were pale, their bodies were covered with dirt, and their eyes were full of despair. Sitting helplessly in a corner.

It is certain to be beaten for breaking the rules, but it is absolutely impossible to be so ruthless.

Looking at the injuries of several people, it was really too serious. Those who didn't know thought they had committed the serious crime of colluding with outsiders, betraying the sect, and mutilating fellow sects.

Even the city lord Mingyue at the side couldn't help frowning slightly when he saw these scenes, but he didn't say anything.

I came here to see Zhou Wenyuan's face.

Otherwise, a handyman disciple wouldn't be able to invite him at all, so he didn't care about anything else, and the city master Mingyue didn't care if he died.

Song Zhishu didn't speak immediately either. After calming down the anger in his heart, he called out to the three of them.

The voice sounded, and the weak Li Dao and the other three shook their heads, and then all turned their heads to look outside. When they saw Song Zhishu, there was a glimmer of hope in their eyes, but they were soon full of self-blame, remorse and guilt. I couldn't help but bow my head, speechless.

The hope is that Senior Brother Song may be saved because Senior Brother Song came, and the regret is that Senior Brother Song reminded him repeatedly before, but he left it behind.

The guilt was that the three of them were afraid that Senior Brother Song would come, so they dragged each other into trouble again, and those three really regretted their mistakes.

Because they know that what they committed is too big, involving big shots, and wanting to calm down is simply not something that can be done at the level of handyman disciples.

So at this moment, the mood of Li Dao and the others can be described as extremely complicated. With various emotions intertwined, the three big men looked at Song Zhishu, tears welled up in their eyes, and they bowed their heads and wept.

They wanted to speak, but were so badly injured and too weak to even do so.

In particular, the pierced luteal bone continued to send bursts of piercing pain.

Coupled with the fact that their cultivation bases are blocked, the few people now are like mortals, with basically only one breath left and unable to move.

In the end, it was Li Dao who endured the pain and struggled to open his mouth, raised his head and choked up his words: "I regret that I didn't listen to you, Senior Brother Song. Everything is the three of us's own fault, and we ended up in the current situation."

He didn't blame anyone, but he blamed himself for going to the Tiancong Mountains after Senior Brother Song repeatedly reminded him.
Song Zhishu stood in front of the cell with a calm expression on his face: "This is the end of the matter, it's useless to talk too much, you trespassed into the Tiancong Mountains and broke the door regulations, you have to accept the punishment imposed on you by the Law Enforcement Hall, and you deserve it. If you are wrong, you are wrong, there is nothing wrong with that, just admit what you should admit, and don’t hide anything.”

"Clearly explain everything to the Law Enforcement Hall. Of course, if there is no crime, don't admit it. It is what it is."

If he just trespassed on the Tiancong Mountains, he wouldn't say anything at all, and being caught in the Law Enforcement Hall also allowed the three of them to have a long memory.

This is the fault of the three of them, and they should be punished according to the rules of the house.

But the crime of stealing the elder's medicine field is too great, and Song Zhishu also knows that Bai Qiuyu set the trap, in order to punish people to death.

Song Zhishu knew the three of them well, and they would never dare to do such a thing.

This is a crime of imposition.

"Senior Brother Song, I'm sorry."

Wang Yue lowered his head and spoke with difficulty in a weak tone. He really wanted to continue to say something to express his guilt, but he really had no strength left.

Because Wang Yue felt that everything was caused by himself. If he hadn't insisted on opening his mouth at the beginning and went to Liu Qing to lead the way, there would be nothing wrong with it.

Mingming Senior Brother Song reminded him so many times, why didn't he listen, why did he put this kind of persuasion behind him, and finally fell into a trap?

He has also been regretting these days, suffering physically and mentally, in great pain, thinking that it is all his fault.

"Remember my words."

Song Zhishu didn't have any words of consolation, because Li Dao's interests were in his heart, so it should be so difficult.

After speaking, he took another deep look at the three people in the cell, turned around and walked outside.

Now that the situation has been understood, it is useless to stay any longer.

Let's go back and think about how to change the situation of the three of them.

Li Dao and the others were seriously injured. If they just trespassed in the law enforcement hall, they might have used lynching. The reason is self-evident.

"People have already seen it, so I will send you back to Mingyue Academy."

On the way back, Elder Mingyue, who had been silent all this time, spoke. Although he didn't understand the whole story, from the actions and conversations between the two parties just now, he already understood a lot.

Wang Ping'an could even guess what exactly happened.

Standing in this position, what do you not understand, what is unclear?But the person who made the shot was really too ruthless, and he didn't give him a way out at all.

But so what?
No matter Song Zhishu or the few people in the cell, they are just disciples of handymen, and their status is too low.

If Zhou Wenyuan hadn't personally visited the door before, Elder Mingyue would not have even come to this Law Enforcement Hall.

Even if Song Zhishu was sent back, it was because of the other side's fault.

"Thank you, Elder Mingyue."

Song Zhishu didn't say anything, just nodded slightly.

Soon the two left the prison and came to the main hall of the Law Enforcement Hall.

Immediately afterwards, the same as when it came, Mingyue grew old and turned into a rainbow, engulfing Song Zhishu to the academy.

About a quarter of an hour later.

In Mingyue Academy, Zhou Wenyuan and Lu Ming were waiting in the courtyard.

Soon Elder Mingyue brought Song Zhishu to the ground. Elder Mingyue looked at Zhou Wenyuan who was not far away, and immediately said with a smile: "Brother Wenyuan, the matter has been settled. If there is nothing else, I will go back first. Brother Wenyuan Remember to sit with me next time if you have time.”

"Good talk, good talk."

Zhou Wenyuan also walked forward and expressed his thanks: "Brother Ping An, please."

"Elder Mingyue, this disciple has a doubt. I wonder if the elder has time to answer?"

But when Elder Mingyue was about to answer, Song Zhishu suddenly chose to speak, which immediately caught the eyes of the two of them.

Zhou Wenyuan didn't speak, but turned his head and looked at Elder Mingyue in front of him.

Wang Pingan took a deep look at Song Zhishu and nodded, "Since you have doubts, you can speak up."

Elder Mingyue is such a character, he fully understands what Song Zhishu said at this time, otherwise why didn't he ask sooner or later, and insisted on asking when Zhou Wenyuan was present?

In order to make myself have to answer that question.

"Thank you, Elder Mingyue."

Song Zhishu actually didn't want to do that, but there was really no other way: "I want to know, before the crime is officially confirmed, does the Law Enforcement Hall have the right to use lynching?"

"Lynching? What do you mean? Could it be that Song Xiaoyou's friends suffered injustice in the Law Enforcement Hall?"

Zhou Wenyuan also spoke, with doubts on his face, looking at Elder Mingyue in front of him, as if he was quite curious about this question.

Elder Mingyue knew what Song Zhishu meant by speaking at this time, let alone Zhou Wenyuan, so speaking at the right time was considered helpful, and at the same time, his questions were just right and would not arouse suspicion.

"The injuries on those handyman disciples are indeed a bit excessive."

Elder Mingyue nodded, and then continued: "I will help you to find out what's going on. If the law enforcement hall really broke the rules, I will definitely give you a reasonable explanation."

Isn't it just to ask yourself the specific situation?
Wang Pingan knew what Song Zhishu was thinking, and he really remembered this person. It was a good way to borrow Zhou Wenyuan's side to force him to say such things.

"Disciple, thank you, Elder Mingyue." Song Zhishu nodded, and directly bowed to express his gratitude with a sincere tone.

Song Zhishu understands that this is very abrupt, but it is obvious that the punishment of the three has exceeded their own crimes.

Because even if it is confirmed that the elders have stolen the elixir, it shouldn't be the case.

Obviously someone deliberately targeted behind the scenes.

That's why Song Zhishu chose to speak, wanting to make the situation of several people better, at least only punish them according to their crimes.

"It's okay."

Elder Mingyue gave up and didn't care, and then chatted with Zhou Wenyuan for a few words.

It turned into rainbow light again and disappeared into Mingyue Academy.

Wait until Elder Mingyue leaves.

Song Zhishu walked to Zhou Wenyuan's side, and bowed to apologize: "This time, the student took advantage of your relationship with Elder Mingyue, sir, and asked him to intervene in the affairs of a few friends. I hope that sir will not blame you."

"You are affectionate and righteous. Running around for your friends is the way of a true gentleman. How can this old man blame you?"

Zhou Wenyuan smiled, expressing that he didn't care at all, and at the same time felt that there was nothing wrong with Song Zhishu's approach.

"Mr. is rude."

Song Zhishu spoke out, but at the same time he did not hide it, and told everything about Li Dao before and after.

Mr. Wen Yuan expressed his concern and help sincerely, and he should not have concealed it.

"If it's true that your friends were at fault first, Taihao Sword Sect should punish them, but the punishment is too heavy and should not exceed their own faults."

Zhou Wenyuan spoke after listening to the ins and outs of the matter, thinking that the person behind it was indeed too much.

"What Mr. Wen Yuan said is that the students think the same way." Song Zhishu nodded.

"Song Xiaoyou, I will help you pay attention to the news from Brother Ping An, and if there is anything to help, you can ask." Zhou Wenyuan looked at Song Zhishu and continued, saying that he could also do something within his ability.

"Thank you Mr. Wenyuan."

Song Zhishu bowed in salute and thanked him.

In fact, what he thought in his heart was that he could solve the following matters by himself, and he couldn't bother Mr. Wen Yuan too much.

The two chatted a little more, and it happened that Song Zhishu had a few questions about Confucianism.

Then he turned and left Mingyue Academy and walked towards home.

Song Zhishu's life has always been like this, he is either on the road of cultivation or studying. If it weren't for Li Dao and the others to have an accident, he would basically not choose to go out.

After returning home, tidy up a little.

Song Zhishu first washed his face, cleared his mind, and wrote an article silently to clear away distracting thoughts.

After my heart calmed down completely, I began to carefully recall all the news I got today and consolidated it. I wanted to find a breakthrough, find a solution, and at least find a way to clear the accusations of framing Li Dao and others.
