Chapter 460: Trial in the Martial Arts Hall
The last time he was investigated by Tianji Hall because of the green ox cart incident was still vivid in his mind. This time, Li Fan came to the central core area of Wanxian Island again.
After passing the Cezhen Hall and continuing inward, Li Fan stopped in front of a building with a stone tablet engraved with the word "武" standing at the door.
The moment he saw this word, Li Fan felt a chilling and depressing atmosphere coming over him.
Several phantoms seemed to appear in front of his eyes, and the next moment it seemed that he was about to be struck with a sword.
"The calligraphy is good, but compared to the 'chaotic' calligraphy stones I saw before, it still lacks a bit of flavor."
Suppressing the instinctive impulse to fight back, Li Fan looked at it carefully for a long time and thought to himself.
With a solemn look on his face, he strode into the martial arts hall without changing his expression.
In the Ce Formation Hall, which Li Fan is familiar with, there are many superimposed spaces that can be accessed through the teleportation array. The main landscape of this martial arts hall is composed of many huge rocks floating in the air.
The jagged and strange rocks are scattered in the space like stars in the sky.
Looking at it suddenly, each stone has a different shape.
There are those that are like humans and beasts, and there are those that are like mountains and water.
On top of the boulders, you can vaguely see pavilions, vegetation, and figures flying by from time to time.
But the flying stone Li Fan was standing on at the moment was extremely special.
It was bare and flat as a mirror.
There were faint lines of light flowing under the stone surface. The moment Li Fan stepped onto the boulder, a formation was activated, and he felt that he was being transferred uncontrollably to the center of the flying stone.
An inexplicable energy emerged from under his feet, like invisible shackles, tightly binding him.
At the same time, Li Fan looked up and saw that the flying rocks around him, like stars, also changed inexplicably.
Li Fan's original location was an inconspicuous corner of the sea of stars.
But when he was imprisoned, the scene in the sky changed like stars moving around.
In an instant, Li Fan seemed to have arrived in the center of the sea of stars and became the absolute focus of the space.
Li Fan even felt that at that moment, countless eyes hidden behind the boulders were all falling on him.
A real eye-catcher!
Every line of sight is as heavy as a mountain. If it is a monk who has never seen the world or has poor mental endurance, his knees will weaken and he will collapse to the ground.
But Li Fan was calm and composed, with a calm expression on his face.
After a moment of confrontation, a solemn voice boomed from the stone sea, echoing continuously.
"Brother Li Fan, due to the [abnormal price of Puxian True Leaf] incident, you are here to be summoned for investigation."
"This investigation is hosted by Cong Yunhai Yanwu Hall, and coordinated by Cong Yunhai Tianji Hall and Buzheng Hall."
"Because this incident has a huge impact and is extremely bad in nature, the Fairy League headquarters will send a special envoy to supervise the entire process."
"Adhering to the principles of fairness, impartiality and openness, this investigation process will not be kept confidential and will be supervised by all members of the Xianmeng."
…
After the vast voice said a series of opening remarks according to the script, it finally came to the main topic.
"Brother Li Fan, you can defend yourself during the investigation."
"But you need to be responsible for the authenticity of every word you say. If you are found to have concealed, deceived, etc., you will be punished according to the seriousness of the case and in accordance with the rules of the Immortal Alliance."
Hongyin came into his mind, and Li Fan nodded, indicating that he already knew.
"Now, I announce that the investigation has officially begun."
"Please perform martial arts hall, Jin Chonghuan retell the incident."
A bright light flashed, and a monk wearing the standard uniform of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance's Martial Arts Hall appeared out of thin air above the flying stone where Li Fan was.
Located above Li Fan, condescending.
But he looked up at the flying rocks in the sky and said.
"This unusual fluctuation in the price of Puxian True Leaf stems from what this monk Li Fan said 16 days ago."
"He used Jiao Xiuyuan's mouth to convey the message to the outside world that [the price of Samantabhadra leaves will skyrocket], and then..."
Jin Chongjuan briefly and comprehensively summarized the cause and effect of the incident, and along with his words, a picture appeared on the sky.
The schematic diagram of the price fluctuation curve of Pu Xian True Leaf Grass, the frenzied buying of monks, and the appearance of countless monks who suffered losses after the Tianxuan Mirror crisis.
"Moreover, we noticed that monk Li Fan had purchased a large amount of inventory in advance before the price of Puxian True Leaf rose. He also sold it at a high point and made a lot of money."
"To sum up, we believe that monk Li Fan is suspected of spreading false information, taking advantage of the public's herd mentality, seeking huge profits, and maliciously undermining the stability of the Immortal Alliance." Jin Chonghuan added.
After finishing speaking, there was silence in the martial arts hall.
Li Fan suddenly felt that the eyes on him were a little heavier.
If he were an ordinary monk, he would probably turn pale immediately and not bring it upon himself.
Li Fan spoke out boldly, interrupting Jin Chonghuan's words: "I have objections!"
"You said I spread false information? Where do you start talking about this? Yes, I made a little money from this incident..."
Ignoring the faint murderous intent in Tao Dao's eyes, Li Fan said to himself: "However, it is only natural for monks to pursue profits in the land of wealthy couples. I have the ability to deduce the future, so what's wrong with using it to make profits? "
"The subsequent price trend of Puxian True Leaf is also consistent with the results I predicted. Doesn't this just prove the accuracy of my deduction!" Li Fan said righteously.
Whispers came from the martial arts hall.
"Quiet!"
"As to whether it is legitimate or not to use the art of deduction to make profits, I would like to ask Elder Gongsun Qixuan of Tianji Hall to speak."
The light flickered and Jin Chonghuan disappeared from everyone's sight.
Instead, there was a young scholar who looked to be in his twenties.
Although he looks quite handsome, his face is depressed.
"It's him..." Li Fan narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the other person, and nodded.
This Gongsun Qixuan was the monk he met when he was investigated by Tianji Hall. The mysterious aura that this man inadvertently revealed impressed Li Fan deeply.
After Gongsun Qixuan also greeted Li Fan kindly, he coughed lightly and said slowly: "Our Tianji Hall's views have never changed."
"The results of the derivation can be used as a reference for future actions. If not, why was our Tianji Hall established?"
"We can all do this, so there is no reason to prohibit the monks in the alliance from doing this."
Gongsun Qixuan's words are extremely pertinent.
Li Fan nodded repeatedly.
At this moment, he changed the topic and stared at Li Fan with his sharp eyes.
"However, I doubt whether this fellow Taoist Li Fan really has the ability to deduce the future!"
"If [the price of Puxian True Leaf will skyrocket], he really deduced it. Our Tianji Hall maintains that he is not guilty."
"on the contrary……"
A cold light flashed in Gongsun Qixuan's eyes.
"If this matter was created out of thin air by him."
"We recommend that he be sentenced to death."
