Looking to the Thirteen Rivers

These idiots who do more than fail.

Ding Lian cursed secretly.

"What else do you want to say?" Man Jiangxue looked at her quietly, with a layer of warm light from the candlelight floating in her eyes.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, Ding Lian was really annoyed. After a moment of silence, he didn't answer Man Jiangxue's words, but looked sideways at the female disciple beside him and said, "Just now what this junior brother said, But really?"

When the female disciple heard her question, she knew in her heart that Ding Lianzhen was going to place the blame on her. The female disciple showed hesitation, and said in a low voice: "Senior Sister Ding..."

"I ask you if it's true!" Ding Lianzhen's eyes were sharp and his tone was severe.

The female disciple had a forbearing expression on her face, and she was very humiliated and unwilling in her heart. It took a long time before she resigned to her fate and said, "It's true..."

What Ding Lian was really waiting for was her words, and he immediately looked at Man Jiangxue and said, "Uncle, Senior Sister Xu, I really don't know what happened today. I just caught a cold and became very dizzy. I want to ask them to go for me. It's just a trip," she said here, coughing a few times, and said angrily, "But who would have thought that they would do such a thing behind my back!"

"But I understand in my heart that when something like this happened, it is true that I have not disciplined myself well, and it is also my fault." Ding Lianzhen sighed, leaned over and kowtowed, "But I have something to say, about Meng Jing's troubles. My matter is really groundless. This disciple has never met Meng Jing, and has never had any contact with him. It is nonsense to say that he has annoyed me. I also ask Uncle Xu and Senior Sister Xu not to believe such slander. Ci, disciple is really wronged."

Seeing that she was speaking logically and turning black and white, Meng Jing hurriedly said: "You are lying! Yesterday you brought someone to the disciples' courtyard to look for Yin Qiu, and I was clearly there at that time, but now you say you have never seen me, you really know Upside down!"

Ding Lian looked at Meng Jing in surprise, and said, "...was that you, the junior brother yesterday? I just met him briefly, how could I remember?"

She was so determined that she didn't want to admit it, and there was that female disciple who took the blame for her, and Ding Lianzhen didn't personally participate in the whole incident from the beginning to the end, even if someone could prove what happened, she couldn't do anything about it.

Meng Jing was furious, wishing to rush up and beat her hypocritical face to pieces.

Afterwards, Xu Lianzhi questioned Yin Qiu and Fu Xiang again, and they each explained what they had seen and heard, and Xu Lianzhi said: "The first rule of my Yunhua Palace is that it is strictly forbidden to bully disciples of the same sect, and it is strictly forbidden for disciples to fight each other. Even the direct disciples of the head of the sect will not be able to escape punishment if they commit a crime. You guys use your identities to pretend to be majestic, disregard the palace rules, and knowingly commit crimes, you should be punished severely!" After she finished speaking, she looked at Man Jiangxue and said, "Uncle, come here! Sentence shall be pronounced."

Man Jiangxue said succinctly: "Dispose of it according to the palace rules, just take it down."

As soon as they heard that they were to be dealt with according to the palace rules, several female disciples broke out in cold sweat and their faces turned pale.

It should be known that bullying the same sect is a serious crime. Not only will one be stripped of the waist card of the peak vein, be reduced to the lowest outer sect disciple, be expelled from the palace, but also receive twenty spine sticks. That spine stick is no joke , [-] big boards are beaten, although the whole back will not break all the bones, it can still make people's skin bruised, and they can't get out of bed for several months. recovery.

Several female disciples were frightened out of their wits and looked like puppets. Only when they were dragged outside the door did they realize that they had been taken advantage of, and they all yelled hoarsely.

"No, no... the disciple is wronged! The disciple is wronged!"

"Uncle Master, please forgive me! The disciples are all ordered to do this, Uncle Master, please forgive me!"

"Senior Sister Ding! Senior Sister Ding—! You save us... save us!"

Soon, the disciples carrying the torture tools rushed over. Several people were tied to a long bench, and a stick was erected on the spot. There were continuous screams, heart-piercing and lung-piercing, and the hearts trembled.

·

Listening to their cries, Ding Lianzhen's body became stiff, and a layer of white sweat broke out on his back.

She knelt motionless, but she pretended to be extremely calm on her face, her eyebrows were lowered and her eyes were lowered, indifferent to the movement outside.

As a result, only Ding Lianzhen was left kneeling in the hall, and Yin Qiu and Fu Xiang got Man Jiangxue's order to stand up and sit down.

No one in the hall spoke, so they made the screams outside louder, and after a while, Man Jiangxue spoke again: "As for you, you have been forming cliques in the palace all year round, seeking personal favor with your status. Selfishness, ruining the atmosphere, and this time, he instigated his disciples to retaliate against the younger generation, even if someone took the charge for you, it doesn't mean you can stay out of it."

Ding Lianzhen felt a little guilty at this moment, but she knew that she must not show cowardice, so she straightened her back and said, "Forgive me for not understanding what my uncle said, all of them have pleaded guilty, and no one has accused them. It was instigated by my disciples, and they claimed that Meng Jing had offended me, and they were just using my name to stir up trouble. Let's talk about the evidence."

Man Jiangxue didn't respond to her words, and didn't even bother to confront her verbally, but Xu Lianzhi slapped the table and scolded: "Presumptuous! How can you be so rude to my uncle!"

Ding Lianzhen said: "The disciple is just telling the truth and discussing the facts."

"You—" Xu Lianzhi was so angry that he wanted to beat her with a whip, and said loudly, "Ding Lianzhen, I advise you to take a good attitude! As long as your eyes are not blind, you can tell that those people outside were beaten for you, Since they are willing, they will be fined if they are punished, after all, they are also the ones who work for tigers, and you, don't know how to put your nose on your face, or you will be dragged out and beaten together!"

However, after all, everyone in the room knew very well that Ding Lianzhen could not be punished this time, even if she had to be punished, she could only be punished for negligence and could not stand the stick, and it would not hurt to scold her for a while , but if you insist on convicting her, saying that she instigated her disciples to commit murder, there is indeed insufficient evidence.

Ding Lian really understood her situation very well, she knew that even Man Jiangxue could do nothing to her, but after hearing what Xu Lianzhi said, Ding Lian really eased her attitude, and asked: "Then disciple, please ask Master Uncle if you want How to punish disciples."

Man Jiangxue didn't reply in time, and said after a while: "Take her badge."

Ding Lianzhen was taken aback, and hurriedly protected himself: "Uncle Master!"

She is a disciple of the elders of Tianyin Peak, and her status is not low. She has been domineering by relying on this status all these years. If she takes off her waist card, she will be nothing.

Several guard disciples stepped forward together, divided their work, and worked together to take Ding Lianzhen's badge.

"Uncle Master!" Ding Lianzhen realized the seriousness of the matter, and said anxiously, "It is true that the disciple did something wrong, but it is not to the point of taking off the waist card. This matter was not the disciple's intention from the beginning to the end. What's more, the disciple is an apprentice accepted by Elder Cheng himself, so if the uncle wants to take my badge, he must invite Elder Cheng to discuss it!"

Man Jiangxue smiled silently, got up from before the case, walked to stand in front of Ding Lianzhen, and said: "Not only will I take your badge, but I will also punish you to go to Tianchi to guard the tombs of the cemeteries of the masters for three years. , Sincerely repent, if you behave well, you will come back after three years, if you don’t know how to repent, then when will you think about it clearly, and when will you talk about it.”

Ding Lian's eyes were red with anxiety.

Tianchi... there is nothing but graves in that place, but those who have been demoted there will not be able to return.

It is even more unacceptable to spend your whole life in that place where the birds don't shit. This is more unacceptable than getting twenty spine sticks.

Even if she can come back three years later, she is no longer a senior sister of Tianyin Peak, she can only start as the lowest outer disciple, and with a criminal record, it is almost impossible to return to the inner disciple step by step. possible thing.

Ding Lianzhen originally wanted to ask those female disciples to take Meng Jing to Tianyin Peak and make him do some tiring and hard work so that he could teach him a lesson, but he didn't expect those idiots to make such a mess , not only said her name in front of Meng Jing, but also the disciple of the hidden guard named Man Jiangxue listened to it verbatim. Didn't this kill her!

"Disciple refuses to accept!" Ding Lianzhen argued, "They are the ones who beat people, and they are also the ones who slandered the disciple. They don't ask the uncle to return the disciple's innocence, but they can't punish the disciple for no reason. Forgive me, I can't accept it!"

"You think I'm punishing you for this?" Man Jiangxue said, "Then you're dead wrong."

Behind him, the disciple of the dark guard fetched an account book at some point, Man Jiangxue took it, and threw it in front of Ding Lianzhen's knee.

"This is the ledger of your misappropriation of Tianyin Peak's public funds in the palace over the years. How much you used, when you used it, and who you gave it to, is clearly recorded on it."

Ding Lian's breath stuck in his throat, his expression shocked.

She looked at the account book, but didn't reach out to look through it for a long time.

"In addition, this account book was given to me by your master, Elder Cheng yesterday." Man Jiangxue said again.

Ding Lian really seemed to be struck by lightning, his face turned paler, and he muttered: "Master...he?"

"Elder Cheng traveled around in the past, and happened to see you selling yourself on the street to bury your father at a young age," Man Jiangxue said flatly, looking at the gradually darkening sky outside, "He pitied you for being helpless and took you back to the palace." Taking good care of you, you can be respected by others in Tianyin Peak, not only because Elder Cheng regards you as his own, but also because you are self-sufficient, capable of writing and martial arts, and assisting Elder Cheng to manage Tianyin Peak in an orderly manner, which is obvious to all."

When Man Jiangxue said this, he stopped talking. Behind him, Xu Lianzhi also got up, stood beside Man Jiangxue, and continued: "I didn't expect you to become a power-playing thing, behind Elder Cheng's back in the palace. You are a good seedling, but you have embarked on such a crooked path. It is a pity that Cheng Chang is in his sixtieth age, and there is a day to clean up the house. The old man will remember everything for you. Really think he is not Know? Just wait until you hit the south wall and dig your own grave!"

Ding Lian's eyes were filled with tears, and he was severely stunned.

At this moment, she suddenly remembered the words with deep meaning that Master had said to her in the past days.

She couldn't understand it at the time, and she couldn't understand it. Now that she thinks about it, it turned out that Master had already given countless reminders and advice. In fact, Master knew everything, but he never pointed it out.However, she thought she was a little clever, and didn't take it to heart. Now that she stumbled, she can't blame others.

The evidence was right in front of my eyes, it was still written by Master's father, the situation was gone, Ding Lian really had no power to argue, she covered her face and wept bitterly, and collapsed on the ground.

Man Jiangxue glanced at her, raised her legs and walked outside the door, saying, "Take me to Tianyin Peak, Elder Cheng wants to see her for the last time."

Several guard disciples stepped forward again, quickly tied up Ding Lianzhen, and immediately escorted him to Tianyin Peak.

·

Things have developed to this point, and no one has ever thought of it.

After Ding Lian really left, the execution hall fell silent for a moment, Xu Lianzhi ordered everyone to disperse, Yin Qiu and others followed him out of the hall, the female disciples outside happened to be carried over, and they were all The beating was bloody and bloody, and the back was bright red. It was very scary to look at.

"It's so scary," Fu Xiang was astonished, "If it's beaten like this, the flesh will be rotten."

Meng Jing snorted coldly: "They deserve what they deserve, but it is Ding Lianzhen who should be beaten more."

Yin Qiu watched those female disciples being carried away, feeling a little scared: "If the uncle and sister teacher didn't come, we would be the ones who were beaten."

Fu Xiang said: "No, alas, I couldn't bear to see them being beaten like that at first, but after hearing what you said, they really deserve to be beaten! Maybe when we are beaten, they will even gloat!"

Yin Qiu stood by the door, recalling what happened in the training ground before, and suddenly fell silent thoughtfully.

Seeing that she seemed to be in a daze, Fu Xiang bumped into Yin Qiu and said, "Why are you in a daze? Aren't you chasing Master Man?"

Yin Qiu came back to his senses in an instant, and looked up, how could there be Man Jiangxue in this courtyard?

Yin Qiu was surprised: "Ah, why didn't Master Master wait for us?"

Meng Jing said from behind: "Such a big incident happened, of course she has to report to the head, how can she have the time to wait for you?"

Yin Qiu said, "Yes."

After she finished speaking, she seemed to have suddenly remembered something, turned her head and glanced at Meng Jing, and as soon as her eyes fell on him, Yin Qiu couldn't help but lost her mind again.

Meng Jing's weak and painful appearance on the ground flashed before his eyes. His facial features, skin, neck... everything was like a lingering cloud, which was always played back in his mind over and over again.

Yin Qiu looked at him, hesitant to speak.

Noticing that her eyes were complicated, Meng Jing looked at her suspiciously for a moment, and asked, "Why are you staring at me blankly? Do you want to tell me something?"

Yin Qiu was about to ask him something, but remembering that Fu Xiang was still nearby, he shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I just wanted to ask if you still hurt."

Meng Jing looked at her for a while and said, "It doesn't hurt anymore, I'm fine."

Yin Qiu fell silent again.

Seeing that the atmosphere between the two of them was a bit unusual, Fu Xiang scratched his ears and said, "Why are you two so weird?"

Yin Qiu and Meng Jing said at the same time: "What's wrong?"

After speaking, he was taken aback at the same time.

Fu Xiang rolled his eyes: "The two of you don't know each other and have become friends, and now you are hiding something from me!"

Then I heard Yin Qiu and Meng Jing say in unison again: "Where is something hidden from you?"

After finishing speaking, the two of them were silent again.

"Do you want to have such a tacit understanding!" Fu Xiang said madly, "I don't care, I'm going to be jealous!"

What are you doing?Why do these two seem to have a better relationship than with her!

Yin Qiu couldn't help laughing, and said: "Okay, let's go back quickly if there is nothing to do, I haven't eaten yet, I'm going to starve to death."

Fu Xiang said, "Hmph."

Yin Qiu grabbed her and said softly, "Why are you so narrow-minded? I didn't provoke you."

Fu Xiang said firmly: "There must be something wrong with you two! Tell me quickly!"

Yin Qiu glanced at Meng Jing and said, "It's all right, what can be the matter?"

"No," Fu Xiang insisted, "There must be!"

Meng Jing didn't bother to pay attention to her, and since he witnessed Fu Xiang leaving Yin Qiu and fleeing yesterday, he looked down on her behavior, so he said "I'm leaving" and left first.

"Why does he look at me with some hostility?" Fu Xiang crossed his hips and stared at Yin Qiu, "Tell me quickly, are you on good terms with him, and you just told him bad things about me!"

Yin Qiu said weakly: "What nonsense are you talking about? How could I speak ill of you to him?"

Fu Xiang said: "Then why did he look at me so fiercely just now? I have no grievances or enmities with him."

Yin Qiu said, "How do I know? You can ask him."

Fu Xiang roared, and said angrily: "I don't care! You can get along with him, but not better than me!"

Yin Qiu was so amused by her that he laughed, and replied repeatedly: "Okay, okay, don't think too much about it."
