Chapter 40: First

Chapter 40: First

The latest chapter after wearing a white moonlight stand-in!

After all, they were familiar with Qiao Wan, and these disciples were still polite. Seeing Qiao Wan's appearance, they were a little unbearable.

When a few people escorted Qiao Wan to the precepts hall, they kindly gave her a few words.

"The person who presided over the trial this time was the elder Dingfa of the Precepts. He was the most upright person. He was soft and not hard. When the junior sister got there, she should be softer, but don't be hard with the elder Dingfa."

To put it nicely, the Dharma Elder Xiao Zongyuan is not upright, but to put it more ugly, it is because he has been in control of the life and death of his disciples for a long time, and he is stubborn.

"Junior sister, bear with it, and when you ask clearly, it will be no big deal."

A group of people stopped in front of the precepts hall.

"Go in." A disciple who was observant opened the door and gestured with his head.

Xiao Zongyuan entered the Dao with the method, and hated monsters the most in his life.

Looking at Qiao Wan's back, the disciples were a little worried about how this Junior Sister Qiao was so obsessed.

The precepts hall is majestic and majestic, with two scorpions crouching on both sides of the gate, they are the real living scorpions.

The heavy door was pushed open with a creak, and Qiao Wan stepped on the cold stone bricks and walked slowly forward until she reached the center of the hall.

There were several people sitting at the top of the hall.

There were not many people in this trial. Although Qiao Wan had a special status, she was not special enough to bother a few elders.

This time, Gao Lanzhi, Fairy Su Ni and several elders from the Precept Hall were present.

Ma Huaizhen's disciples had broken a lot, and this time they were there too.

On the left sit Zhou Yan, Ma Huaizhen and others, and on the right of the precepts hall elders sits the sentencing group of the precepts hall.

What punishment she will receive this time depends on how the sentencing team decides.

On both sides of the steps below the steps stood a row of expressionless disciples holding the precepts, one row holding pen and paper, the other holding torture instruments.

The middle-aged man who looked rather arrogant at first glance on the high platform should be Xiao Zongyuan, the disciple who held the ring. The ordained elder Xiao Zongyuan was also born in the Xiao family. Mu Xiaoxiao had a marriage contract with Xiao Huan of the Xiao family. Xiao Zongyuan and Xiao Huan were also a little bit. relation.

The relationship between the big family, especially the big family in the cultivation world, is intertwined, and it affects the whole body. Throughout the ages, resources and connections have always been the most important things, whether in the world of mortals or the world of self-cultivation.

What's more, the Xiao family is now fighting for power. Xiao Huan is the most outstanding talent in the Xiao family's lineage, with a high status and the most potential candidate to succeed the family head.

Qiao Wan remembered that in the original book, Xiao Zongyuan was also the golden-fingered elder when the heroine Mu Xiaoxiao slapped "Qiao Wan" in the face. Although he was old-fashioned, he only loved Mu Xiaoxiao very much, not only for Mu Xiaoxiao's sake. , but also to show his loyalty to Xiao Huan.

Mu Xiaoxiao also came, and sat awkwardly beside Zhou Yan, with jet-black hair on his forehead, and his figure wrapped in a white skirt was as small and soft as a bird.

Mu Xiaoxiao lost memory of this plot, to be honest, it is more like the original author's hanging on his daughter.

According to common sense, memory loss does not mean dementia.

But "Ascension to the Immortal Road" is after all an article on the asura field. Mu Xiaoxiao, who lost her memory, was written by the original author as a seven- or eight-year-old little loli, who did a lot of naive and unaware things. Many male characters are loved and helpless.

More importantly, with the name of amnesia, it seems very logical to slap the vicious female partner Qiao Wan.

After all, Mu Xiaoxiao's character is a soft girl, and slapping her face after amnesia is childish.

After the amnesia, Mu Xiaoxiao's innocence also highlights Qiao Wan's despicableness.

As soon as Qiao Wan stepped into the main hall, Xiao Zongyuan really did not treat her politely, and asked her to kneel as soon as he came up.

"Kneel down!"

Qiao Wan stood up straighter and said nothing.

From leaving the secret realm to now, she doesn't feel that she has done anything wrong. Although she was enchanted, she resisted it and didn't do anything to Mu Xiaoxiao.

She doesn't want to kneel.

Especially in front of Zhou Yan.

Although Zhou Yan was a cold person, when he looked at his apprentice, he was always two points gentler than others. At this time, he didn't look at her, half-closed his eyes, his white hair was falling, like Lang Yue in the room, cold and noble.

He was extremely disappointed in her.

Xiao Zongyuan immediately tightened his eyebrows and raised his tone a bit, "Kneel down!"

Qiao Wan: "The disciple has not yet been convicted, so the disciple will not kneel."

Ma Huaizhen glanced here, and his voice was cold, "If you don't kneel, you won't kneel, and then you get up from the bed, and the injury is not healed. This kneeling will last for half an hour. If you pass out by then, this trial will be To continue or not to continue.”

Xiao Zongyuan's face turned dark, because Ma Huaizhen was here, it was not easy to attack, so he could only bear it.

One of the disciples who kept the precepts came out and began to report the contents of the dossier.

The disciple on the right holding a pen and paper tossed the paper roll, urging a brush to start typing on the paper.

It is well known that she is possessed by demons.

The disciples holding the dossier slowly checked the casualties caused by this secret realm.

The casualties were so heavy, most of them were the cauldrons of the human-faced scorpion spiders. Although Qiao Wan didn't kill anyone, she also hurt a lot of Anbu disciples. Some Anbu disciples are still lying on the bed. Fortunately, she didn't kill her fellow disciple. Otherwise, this matter would definitely not be good.

"In the secret realm of mudstone, the Dao's mind is unstable, trapped in a demon, and after entering the demon, he tried to murder the senior sister of the same sect, and killed more than ten disciples of the Anbu!" Xiao Zongyuan said sharply, "Do you know the crime?!"

Qiao Wan was silent for a moment, her voice a little hoarse, "Reporting to the elder, I admit it, but I didn't kill anyone."

"The seven Anbu disciples were all killed by monsters in the secret realm."

Xiao Zongyuan sneered, "But you intend to kill your senior sister! Your master is sitting here, you hate your fellow disciples and intend to kill senior sister, how could Master Yuqing raise your apprentice!"

"Your senior sister is also here, do you have the face to face your master and your senior sister?!"

Qiao Wan was silent for a moment, "Elder, this disciple asked to leave a video."

Seeing Qiao Wan's unrepentant appearance, Xiao Zongyuan stared at him with anger, "Then post a video, let's see and see!"

Fairy Su Ni has a gentle personality and usually doesn't speak loudly. Seeing this scene in front of her, she felt a little helpless, but the elders of Kunshan knew Xiao Zongyuan's nature. .

Su Ni stretched out her slender fingers, poked Qiao Wan's forehead, penetrated into her sea of ​​knowledge, and pulled out all the memories in the secret realm.

From entering the secret realm, to connecting with the sea of ​​​​knowledge with the human face and scorpion tail, to entering the devil and giving up both arms, the scenes, stereo audio-visual, are all played back in the hall.

Seeing Qiao Wan's seven orifices bleeding, her divine sense strangling tens of thousands of scorpion-tailed spiders.

Elder Xuanzhong of the Discipline Hall couldn't help but praise.

Simply neat and decisive! good! With a tenacious heart, Zhou Yan raised a good apprentice.

The more he looked down, the darker Ma Huaizhen's face became. When he saw Qiao Wan stretched out his hand and twisted his two arms, Ma Huaizhen's face was covered with dark clouds.

Zhou Yan frowned and was stunned.

Until today, before the trial, they only got the confessions of other disciples, and they pieced together to restore the situation at that time. Those disciples who entered the secret realm were seriously injured. In addition, their spiritual sense was weak, and there was no way to extract the memory in the sea of ​​​​knowledge. The matter of "taking pictures" has been put on hold until now.

It was not until Qiao Wan, the "culprit", woke up, that the trial was held in the Hall of Discipline Hall.

In the dossier brought by Xiaohe, there was no mention of Qiao Wan's loss of both arms.

Zhou Yan looked at Qiao Wan who was under the stage, and his whole body was shocked, his throat rolled, and his hand on the chair unconsciously pressed a little tighter, and his joints were blue and white.

Did he misunderstand her?

It's one thing to hear that Qiao Wan broke his arms, but it's another thing to put it in front of you and see it with your own eyes.

The other elders were also a little surprised. They never thought that Zhou Yan, this apprentice, this seemingly ordinary girl, could be so decisive.

It's not enough to smoke Qiao Wan one, Yuan Liu and several others also have to smoke.

As soon as Qiao Wan stood still, she saw that Yuan Liu and several others were also brought into the precepts hall.

Among these Anbu disciples, Yuan Liuxiu was barely able to see it, and it was naturally what was drawn in his head.

Seeing the picture of Qiao Wan's cold brows, and simply unloading his arms neatly, Yuan Liu was silent for a moment, "You can't blame Qiao Wan for being in a demon."

"At that time, if Qiao Wan and those human-faced scorpion-tailed spiders hadn't met the sea of ​​​​knowledge, all twenty of us would have to explain it here."

Yuan Liu glanced at Ma Huaizhen and tugged at the corners of his lips and smiled, "Our outer sect disciples are a bit cheap, but we are not cheap. We can still tell what is right and what is wrong."

Yuan Liu: "Qiao Wan wants to kill Mu Xiaoxiao, that's because of inner demons. When that cultivator can guarantee that he is not trapped in inner demons, which cultivator can do what Qiao Wan is like?"

"No one cares about our cheap lives." Yuan Liudao, "but Qiao Wan cares."

"As for killing fellow sects."

"Qiao Wan saved us and saved our fellow sects, what should we count? Or is the life of tens of thousands of outer sect disciples in Kunshan really worth less than the lives of inner sect disciples?! Mu Xiaoxiao's life is more expensive, we outsiders are more expensive. Sect disciple deserves a footstep?!"

"Seven lives." Yuan Liu said in a deep voice, "All seven of my brothers are gone! This is not as good as Mu Xiaoxiao's one!"

Yuan Liu stretched out his hand and glared angrily, "Because of her, the seven of us will protect her!"

Xiao Zongyuan glared angrily: "Bold!"

Ma Huaizhen leaned back on the wheelchair, sneered, and said solemnly, "Let him speak."

The corners of the raised lips were obviously satisfied with what Yuan Liu said.

Yuan Liu was a disciple of the Enlightenment Hall and Ma Huaizhen's subordinate.

If it wasn't for Ma Huaizhen's acquiescence, how dare he be so arrogant in front of the Precepts Hall.

Xiao Zongyuan was so angry that he was short of breath, but although he dared to attack Yuan Liu, he did not dare to attack Ma Huaizhen.

After holding it for a long time, he coldly said, "This is a matter of my Disciplinary Hall. Master Wangma, please stop meddling in our Discipline Hall's affairs."

Ma Huai really leaned back in the wheelchair lazily, "The elder's words are biased. All the people who died in the secret realm are my disciples from the Anbu. Today's interrogation has nothing to do with me. Manage it? Otherwise, why would the Discipline Hall ask me to come over for this trip?"

However, when Qiao Wan bit off the Xueyan Fox's trachea without hesitation, it was another scene. In the video, she saw the girl's cold eyes and the **** scene of biting off the little boy's trachea.

Several elders frowned slightly. Zhou Yan's apprentice's temperament was too ruthless, and he just nodded his head when killing people.

Ma Huai snorted in disdain.

He is in the world, and he has been exposed to far more things than others.

After all, it's all about killing, so what is the form? Put a pillow on the other side and pour a cup of tea before killing someone, is that benevolence?

Didn't Qiao Wan die in one mouthful?

Committing a murder is a murder, and if you start lightly, it doesn't mean that you can add that much less in the way of heaven.

Those who seem to be upright, behind their backs, do not less of the secret affairs of killing people and stealing treasures.

Qiao Wan: "He wants to kill me."

Xiao Zongyuan: "That's the spirit beast that signed a blood pact with Mu Xiaoxiao. You knew that you could be knocked unconscious, why did you just bite the Xueyan fox to death, and then kill it again? It caused your fellow senior sister to be seriously injured!"

Yuan Liu gritted his teeth and looked at Mu Xiaoxiao who was standing beside Zhou Yan, "Mu Xiaoxiao has entered the situation privately, why don't you settle this account with her?"

His seven brothers, in order to save Mu Xiaoxiao, were all folded into the secret realm of mudstone. Thinking of this, Rao Yuan Liu couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Mu Xiaoxiao's private intrusion into the secret realm will be interrogated by the Discipline Hall tomorrow! Today's trial is Qiao Wan! Instead of asking her why she entered the secret realm privately," Xiao Zongyuan said, "Why don't you ask Qiao Wan!"

"The secret realm of mudstone is unknown to everyone in Kunshan, and everyone knows it. The only one who doesn't know anything about it is Mu Xiaoxiao." Xiao Zongyuan shouted angrily, "It is one thing for Mu Xiaoxiao to enter the secret realm privately, but Qiao Wan, you What is her intention to go to the mudstone secret realm by herself!"

Qiao Wan's eyes were calm: "I didn't push her to go to the secret realm. Since I want to harm her, why do I have to go into the cave to find her again."

Xiao Zongyuan sneered: "Funny words, well, since you can explain these things, then I want to see how you will make quibbles next."

Joe was stunned.

I saw two disciples holding the ring, holding a familiar figure and came up.

That is Xiaohe.

Xiao Daotong was brought up, turned around and bowed to the elders present, blinked his dark eyelashes, but did not look at Qiao Wan.

Xiao Zongyuan: "Since you are here, in front of fellow practitioners, repeat what you said to the Discipline Hall a few days ago."

Xiaohe: "The Secret Realm of Mudstone, it was indeed Senior Sister Qiao who urged Senior Sister Mu to go there."

"Since Senior Sister Mu returned to Shanmen, she has thought of me many times to express her dissatisfaction with Senior Sister Mu."

"Even... even want to kill Senior Sister Mu."

As soon as these words came out, Qiao Wan's pupils tightened.

Zhou Yan's complexion suddenly changed!

Ma Huaizhen was stunned for a moment, but did not expect that this little Daoist boy, who usually seemed to have a good relationship with Qiao Wan, would suddenly backhand the knife at this critical juncture.

Seeing the uneasy Mu Xiaoxiao beside Zhou Yan, Ma Huaizhen's face sank, "She has lived for so many years, and she is not too young, so she should have her own judgment on what to do, whether she can go or not, doesn't she know in her heart? "

Qiao Wan didn't look at anyone, only looked at Xiao He closely, "Xiao He, did I say that?"

Xiao Daotong raised his eyes and hesitated for a moment, "Senior Sister, I know you are unwilling, but Senior Sister Mu is our senior sister after all."

Qiao Wan froze in place, a buzzing sound in his head.

He was a little cold all over, his voice was a little hoarse, and there was only one thought left in his head.

Xiaohe, why did he give perjury?

Ma Huaizhen said coldly, "Since Qiao Wan wanted to kill Mu Xiaoxiao, why did I tell you this?"

Xiao Daotong shook his head, "Senior Sister Qiao and I are close. Everyone on Yuqing Peak knows that, Senior Sister Qiao is alone, and she is so depressed that she often comes to chat with me. I... I thought at the time. Senior Sister just complained a few words, but I didn't expect Senior Sister to really be able to do such a thing."

Fairy Su Ni stepped forward and pulled out the "images" in her and Xiaohe's heads. In "images", she told Xiao Daotong that the girl who hated Mu Xiaoxiao was indeed Qiao Wan.

Xiao Zongyuan: "What do you have to say so far?!"

Qiao Wan lowered her eyelashes.

Her knowledge of the sea must have been manipulated.

Just like the original book, Xiao Zongyuan was determined to seek justice for Mu Xiaoxiao and to show his favor to Xiao Huan.

She and Xiao Zongyuan were so stalemate, it was meaningless. In the end, the sentencing team in the Discipline Hall still had to decide a punishment, and then the elders would vote on it.

The disciple on the right, who was busy recording the dossier, handed the dossier to the sentencing team.

The members of the sentencing team discussed the punishment for a while and revealed the punishment.

With Feng Yuan nailed through the veins, temporarily sealed off the practice, imprisoned in the dungeon of the precepts hall for 30 years, and meditated on it.

As soon as this decision was made, Ma Huaizhen's expression changed immediately.

Qiao Wan's face also changed.

The lifespan of a monk in the foundation building period is only more than 200 years. The lower the realm, the more urgent the time is for the monk. In the past 30 years, it means that it is impossible to cultivate, and the cultivation base cannot be advanced.

What's more, under the dungeon, all the people who are imprisoned are extremely vicious, and when they come out one day, I am afraid that it will be abolished.

The disciples on the precepts took a step forward, holding the jade slips, and walked in front of Ma Huaizhen.

Collecting them one by one doesn't really take long.

Soon, a disciple holding a ring walked to the center of the hall, holding a jade slip in his hand, and began to count the votes.

"Elder Xuantong, yes."

"Miaoxing is a real person, but."

"Elder Yuxi, yes."

"Elder Lianzhen, yes."

"Elder Xianzhi, no."

Qiao Wan squeezed her knuckles, her eyes widened a little.

"The real person in Xuanzhong, no.

"Fairy Su Ni, no."

"Fairy Qixia, no."

"Elder Dharma, yes."

"Master Ma, no."

Once the announcement was made, the votes were half to half.

This half feels that, from the perspective of Qiao Wanneng biting off Xueyanhu's trachea without hesitation, she is too hostile and too ruthless, and it is probably not a coincidence that she has entered the devil this time. will embark on the magic road.

Now that she's enchanted, it's a good thing. More than 30 years of thinking can really sharpen her temperament.

But the other half of the elders thought that Qiao Wan saved the Anbu disciple in the front, and gave up his arms in the back. Although he hated his fellow disciples and was trapped in his inner demons, there was still room for correction. These thirty years of prison life, to her To say it is too heavy.

But in the final analysis, this last vote is the decisive key.

The voice of the disciple who held the ring was cold, without any ups and downs.

"The real Jade Qing—"

Qiao Wan's breathing stagnated involuntarily.

The words of the disciple who held the ring fell lightly.

"Can."

One vote difference.

The last vote was cast by Zhou Yan.

After casting this vote, Zhou Yan closed his eyes, his knuckles on the chair curled up slightly, and he didn't look at Qiao Wan again, his heart gradually turned cold and fell slowly following the pictures on "Leave the Image". Into the ice cellar.

At the beginning, he took her to Kunshan, and now, he personally sent her to the dungeon of the Discipline Hall.

Thirty years.

Mu Xiaoxiao blinked her long eyelashes and thought, she was a little stunned.

Thirty years is too long.

She suddenly felt a little fear in her heart, and her little finger hooked Zhou Yan's sleeve lightly. Although she couldn't remember people and things, she was still very skilled at doing this, just like she had done it many times before.

But Mu Xiaoxiao was surprised to find that her master, the sword fairy who was always cold and sharp like a sword, was pale and swaying, as if she was in great pain.

The precepts hall determines the sentence, once it is determined, it will never be changed again, and there is no chance to appeal.

Ma Huaizhen's face turned cold a little.

Xiao Zongyuan gave an order, and several disciples holding the ring immediately walked to Qiao Wan's side with handcuffs and shackles, and put them on Qiao Wan's body.

These shackles are specially made, and they are so heavy that they are so heavy that people can hardly walk.

The disciples who helped Qiao night with handcuffs and shackles looked familiar. Taking a closer look, it was the few who were on duty at the gate of her cave before, and it was their turn to be here.

One of the thin senior brothers said in a low voice, "I know you're feeling uncomfortable. Thirty years is not a long time for us cultivators."

Before Qiao Wan left the hall, Ma Huaizhen suddenly stopped the few disciples who held the precepts, and said to Qiao Wan with a gloomy face, "Wait, I won't let you stay in the dungeon for thirty years."

With shackles on his body, it was inconvenient to raise his hands. Qiao Wan bowed as a salute, "Thank you, senior."

Thirty years is not very long.

It has only been more than thirty years since Zhou Yan took her by the hand and set foot on Kunshan for the first time.

It's a pity that she won't be in the dungeon for thirty years.

Not a year.

The debate in the main hall was left behind.

Qiao Wan had already made up her mind the moment she was crushed by the disciples holding the precepts and brought out of the precepts hall.

She is going to jailbreak.

At the same time, the Demon Domain.

The Demon Realm that most people imagined is a red sky, gray buildings, lava on the ground, four episodes of faint crows, and all the devils crying and howling, anyway, how terror comes.

Most demons are very contemptuous of this stereotype circulating in the outside world.

What are they doing, although they are demons, they are also demons who have opened their minds, and they also have their own aesthetics and tastes.

These demons are inherently reckless, and they are keen to fight and do things. If the living environment is surrounded by lava flow and the anger is so dry, then they will have to turn the demon domain upside down sooner or later.

Therefore, the current principal of Moyu, Mei Kangping, in order to build a harmonious and friendly Moyu, specially led everyone to renovate the Moyu base camp.

Especially the "Bamboo House Songxi" where Mei Kangping lives, it is even more warm wind blowing, birds chirping and flowers fragrant.

Since his immediate superior, Emperor Shiyuan, was sealed, Mei Kangping has been under a lot of pressure. write.

Bear in mind that Article 16 in the "Code of Survival in the Demon Domain" must not provoke Mei Kangping. When Xue Yunxiao came to "Pine Creek in Bamboo House", Mei Kangping just opened his eyes and pulled his consciousness back from thousands of miles away.

The corners of the man's sleeves were gently blown by the bamboo wind, and the lifelike white plums on the sleeves also seemed to have been blown to pieces.

Xue Yun sneered and bowed without saying much, "You have found her."

Mei Kangping picked up the folding fan on the table and glanced at him, his expression not looking very friendly, "It's you."

The young man was dressed in strong suits and carried a counter gun on his back.

Xue Yun pursed his lips mockingly, and said hoarsely, "You are not happy."

Mei Kangping sneered: "I don't think you are too happy."

"What? You feel embarrassed to frame your senior sister in the precepts hall? Xiaohe?"

Xue Yun mocked, or in other words, Xiao He, did not say a word, and was silent for a long time before asking, "Are you still going to find her?"

"Yes," Mei Kangping waved his fan impatiently, "why not?"

"I not only want to find her, but also to **** Yong, pull the car with the rhinoceros, and take her back with all the demons on the side."

Yong and Xiqu, one of them appeared, the world was in severe drought, and the other was human-eating, they were both fierce beasts in the demon realm.

To be escorted by Yong, pulled by the rhinoceros canal, and guarded by all the demons, that is the gift of the emperor and concubine of the demon domain.

Xue Yun was stunned.

Does he really want to bring her back from Kunshan with the gift of the Demon Domain Emperor Ji?

Thinking of the expressions of the Kunshan gang at that time, Mei Kangping couldn't help but snorted happily, and there was a rare smile on his face.

"I love her." Mei Kangping shook the fan, "she is my niece, and there is no one in this world who loves her more than me."

Not quite the same as his own identity, Xue Yun laughed at almost every word like gold, "But you are using her."

"My lovers have always been men, women and children. As long as they are useful to me and have value, I love them deeply."

Xue Yun laughed: "This is not love."

Mei Kangping: "I will love her and protect her before her use value disappears. This is the most sincere and stable love. It is more stable than other loves in the world. The most stable and sincere relationship in the world has only interests, and it is in both parties. No one will betray the relationship easily until the interests of the people are out of balance."

Xue Yun laughed: "But you hate her too. No one in this world hates her more than you."

Mei Kangping snorted noncommittally, "At least I still love her now. When the time comes, I will bring my niece back from Kunshan beautifully."
