Chapter 107 Rebellion (5)
Pingxiu spent more than ten days recovering from his injuries in Taoli Cave. Every three days, disciples from the medical training center would come to deliver medicine.
The first time a disciple from the medical training hall came back to deliver medicine, she secretly made a deal with him - if there was any trouble in the Tianyuan Dao Sect, he would inform her in detail next time he delivered medicine.
Pingxiu also requested that if something major happens, the disciples of the medical training center can advance the time of delivering medicine.
It was just dawn that day, and Pingxiu was watering the flowers outside the cave. Suddenly, she saw a gray-blue figure coming in a hurry. He walked outside the bamboo strips fence, stopped and took a breath, and whispered: "Junior sister Ping, I'll give it to you." You brought the medicine."
The disciple glanced at the gate of the cave a few times and asked, "Where are Doctor Ping and Mrs. Feng Si?"
Pingxiu understood and made a gesture to take him to a hidden place to talk.
When the two of them walked into the mulberry forest, the disciple finally couldn't hold it in any longer and said like he was pouring beans: "Junior Sister Ping, something big happened to Tianyuan Dao Sect last night!"
"Senior Brother Zhang, don't be impatient. Speak slowly. What's the big deal?"
"Last night, someone broke into the forbidden area of Tianmen Peak and blew up half of the mountain... Then, Mr. Qin of Zhenwu Temple was also killed. This morning when each faction entered the venue, when they looked up, they saw Mr. Qin's head hanging on the head of Zhenwu Temple. On the flagpole.”
Pingxiu was slightly shocked: "Qin Huaichu is dead? Do you know who killed him?"
The disciple shook his head and said: "I woke up early in the morning and heard the news, so I hurried to Taoli Cave Heaven. Before I left, I heard from the doctors who came back from the venue that the group competition had been postponed, and there was already chaos in the venue."
Pingxiu frowned in thought.
The disciple handed the medicine box to her hand and said, "Junior sister Ping, I have to go back to the medical training center. After such a big incident, I don't know what kind of chaos will happen next."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Pingxiu called out to him: "Senior brother, please wait a moment."
The disciple paused: "Junior Sister Ping, what else do you need my help with?"
Pingxiu looked back at the cave for a few times. The fingers on the handle of the medicine box suddenly tightened and she made up her mind.
"I'm going with you."
The disciple even said no, but Pingxiu had already made up his mind, how could he be swayed by his few words.
She placed the medicine box at the door of the cave, left a note, and left Taoli Cave with the disciple.
When she arrived at the ten sect competition venue and walked from the southeast gate to the seat behind the Feng family, she heard a high-pitched female voice penetrate the partition.
"Feng Si, you are so cruel! You insist on going your own way, and without any evidence, you believe that my nephew Huaichu is the murderer of your daughter, so you want to kill him to vent your anger!"
"You...you really think that because my family has no father and no mother, no one will seek justice for him? As an aunt, I can't just watch him die in vain. Feng Si, I want you to pay for it with your life!"
Compared with Mrs. Zhuiya's madness, Fourth Master Feng seemed much calmer.
"I, Feng Si, dare to take responsibility. If I killed the person, I would naturally disdain to cover it up. But I did not kill the person, and there is no need for me to take the blame. I only regret that I could not personally kill this despicable, shameless and ungrateful person." Little thief!"
There was a commotion coming from the seats in Zhenwu Temple.
Pingxiu quietly walked behind the partition and looked out through the carved holes.
Han Lingguang stepped on the flagpole, flew up, and carefully picked off the bloody human head from the top of the flagpole.
He covered the head with his wide clothes, flew back to Mrs. Zhuiya, and said to the people beside him: "Go and get a wooden box to collect it for your cousin."
"Yes."
Mrs. Zhuiya stared at Mr. Feng viciously for a few times, and no longer thought of harsh words, she staggered, walked to her son, took her nephew's head from his arms, and burst into tears.
The blood from the human head stained her luxurious dress, but she didn't care.
It is not the case for the master of Zhenwu Temple to stand beside his wife and children, to comfort his wife, or to vent his anger through the same nostril as his wife.
Han Ming was not sure whether Qin Huaichu really killed the little girl of Feng Si's family, but he also knew that without evidence, Feng Siye would not kill someone in such a big way.
A disciple of Zhenwu Temple brought a wooden box. Han Lingguang took it, squatted down and whispered, "Mother, please collect the body for my cousin first."
While she was crying, Mrs. Zhuiya held up the head and carefully wiped off the blood on Qin Huaichu's face with a handkerchief.
When she found that Qin Huaichu's eyes were wide open, both of which had been burned by flames, and the muscles on his face were tangled, with an expression of extreme pain before death, she burst into tears.
Just thinking about the suffering her nephew suffered before his death made her feel like a knife.
Mrs. Zhuiya gently put the head into the wooden box, held her son's hand hard, and cried: "Lingguang, your cousin is not a bad person, it is us who treated him badly. If we had not abandoned him in the Western Desert, , he will never end up like this!"
"Ling Guang, your cousin will die with his eyes open, you must avenge him!"
Han Lingguang had tears in his eyes. He was saddened by the death of Qin Huaichu and felt ashamed of his friend Pingxiu. At the same time, he was a little frightened by his mother's crazy attitude.
He couldn't help but look up at his father.
Han Ming spoke up and said: "The truth of the matter is still unknown, so let's deal with the funeral arrangements for Huaichu first. Zhenwu Guan always treats people with integrity. We should bear responsibility for any mistakes and avenge any grievances."
Mrs. Zhuiya was still going crazy. Han Ming's voice suddenly dropped and he shouted: "Enough! In full view of everyone, Zhuiya, if you act like the matron of a family, do you still want to make the righteous heroes laugh?"
Zhuiya was afraid of her husband's majesty. No matter how turbulent the hatred in her heart was, she did not dare to make any more trouble at the moment. She just held the wooden box containing the human head and silently retreated to the back. She sat down with a blank expression and looked at the Feng family. Sweep around.
The hatred in his eyes was like a poisonous snake ready to move.
Pingxiu had never seen Mrs. Zhuiya show such an attitude. Although she was a little aloof and selfish, she was always gentle and elegant in front of others.
The more Pingxiu looked at her, the more familiar she felt.
After looking at her for a while, he suddenly woke up: Yes, wasn't that the way Qin Huaichu looked at her?
The Zhenwuguan side calmed down, but on the Feng family side, Fourth Master Feng suddenly stood up and said, "Feng has an unsolved problem and wants to ask Sect Leader Shen for advice."
Shen Jue smiled and said, "Fourth Master Feng has any doubts, but it doesn't matter."
Fourth Master Feng's eyes squinted slightly and he looked at Yu Anxing, who was sitting on Shen Jue's left hand side.
In the middle of the night yesterday, he suddenly found a letter lying on the front of the case, with the words "Tian Yuan Dao Sect, Jiang Wan pays his respects" written on the envelope.
Jiang Wan had not appeared in front of others since the beginning of the Ten Sect Competition. Shen Jue said Jiang Wan was ill in bed and needed rest. At that time, Fourth Master Feng was already suspicious, but he did not think deeply about it.
However, Pingxiu was fed Wangqing Shui by Xue Ning, which happened to forget the memory related to it. As a result, Jiang Wan was trapped until now, and no one has rescued her.
After Fourth Master Feng opened the letter, he glanced at it, and the more he read, the more frightened he became.
He paced back and forth holding the letter in his hand, and finally decided to go out at night to discuss matters with several family heads with whom he had good relationships.
He went to find the head of the Yue Nu Sword Sect, as well as the heads of the Zhou family in Biandu and the Li family in Bashan. When they met, he discovered that they had all received Jiang Wan's handwritten letter asking for help.
If it is true, as stated in the letter, that Shen Jue is a descendant of the Tianshi clan and designed to kill his senior brother, then it would be a shocking event.
All the family heads have their own thoughts.
The head of the Yue Nu Sword Sect was filled with indignation and felt deeply ashamed.
The heads of the Zhou and Li families both felt that the death of Black Sky Dog, the leader of the Blood Moon Sect, left the Demon Sect without a leader, and that the righteous way had temporarily eliminated external troubles.
The Black Sky Dog was killed by the Tianyuan Dao Sect, and the reputation of the Tian Yuan Dao Sect reached its peak because of this. Shen Jue's ambition to lead the righteous path was clearly revealed.
If what the letter says is true, this is a great opportunity to attack Shen Jue's arrogance and weaken Tianyuan Dao Sect's strength.
The heads of the families discussed all night long, thinking about what to do at dawn tomorrow.
At this time, a disciple suddenly came to report that Yu Anxing, the master of the Xiuwen Academy, was visiting late at night.
Several people were shocked.
After Fourth Master Feng thought for a moment, he asked someone to invite Yu Anxing in.
After Yu Anxing entered the door, he didn't say anything. He just smiled and took out a letter from his sleeve, holding it up and shaking it in front of everyone.
Everyone has been in the world for a long time and they are all old foxes. They have a pair of eyes and hit it off instantly.
Although Yu Anxing spoke impassionedly last night and looked very sorry for Jiang Wan and Qi Buforgiver, Fourth Master Feng didn't really believe it.
Based on his understanding of Yu Anxing, it was impossible for this old fox not to know that Jiang Wan was under house arrest by Shen Jue. He might just be waiting for a perfect opportunity.
But, what exactly does he want?
Revenge for unforgivable relatives?
Fourth Master Feng shook his head and put this ridiculous idea out of his mind.
How is it possible? In his opinion, Yu Anxing is probably running for the position of sect leader.
Although everyone has different goals, what they want reaches the same goal through different paths, so why should everyone get what they need?
Fourth Master Feng decided to cooperate with Yu Anxing to rescue Jiang Wan in order to repay Jiang Wan's kindness for leading people to relieve the Feng family's difficulties.
Fourth Master Feng said: "There was a night attack on Tianmen Peak last night, and I saw the body of Qin at the venue this morning. Dare I ask Sect Master Shen, these two things are definitely not accidental, right?"
The head of the Yue Nu Sword Sect responded and said: "What Fourth Master Feng said is reasonable. Could it be that... the person who attacked Tianmen Peak at night was the person who killed Mr. Qin?"
The head of the Li family smiled and said: "Master Zhao is a gentle man, and he always speaks politely. Our Li family is full of rough people, so I will speak frankly for you two."
"Sect Master Shen, was Qin Huaichu hiding on Tianmen Peak last night?"
Shen Jue smiled but his disciple said loudly: "Does the Li family master want to slander our sect leader for harboring Young Master Qin?"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zhuiya suddenly raised her head, her face pale.
The head of the Zhou family said: "We are asking your master, which onion and which garlic are you? Is it your turn to talk to us?"
Shen Jue smiled lightly and said: "The person who attacked Tianmen Peak last night was my traitor Xue Ning. As for whether Mr. Qin was killed by him and where he was killed, the Xiuwen Academy and the Kendo Academy are still investigating."
When Fourth Master Feng heard that the person who broke into Tianmen Peak was indeed Xue Ning, he was deeply moved.
When Pingxiu heard the word "Xue Ning", she felt an uncontrollable throbbing in her heart.
This name was obviously so unfamiliar, but every time she heard it, she felt a sense of sourness welling up in her heart, feeling like she was lost.
She couldn't help but put her ear to the partition, wondering about Xue Ning's current safety.
Mrs. Zhuiya suddenly pointed to where Pingxiu was hiding and said sharply: "Who! Who is hiding there?!"
Fourth Master Feng looked in the direction she pointed and spotted his daughter at a glance. He was shocked: "Xiuxiu, why are you here?"
Pingxiu had no choice but to walk out from behind the partition, stand behind Fourth Master Feng, and whispered: "My daughter heard that something big happened and came here specially."
Fourth Master Feng called someone to add a seat, and then motioned to his two direct disciples to stand beside his daughter to protect her.
After Mrs. Zhuiya discovered that the sneaky figure was Pingxiu, her eyes started to dodge a little, and she never dared to look directly at her.
Fourth Master Feng pressed down the noisy sound, condensed his true energy in his chest, and sent the sound with his breath, and the loud voice spread throughout the venue.
"Since Sect Leader Shen said so, Feng will believe it for the time being."
"But Feng has another question."
Fourth Master Feng said, shook out a letter, looked around at everyone and said: "Last night, I received a letter for help written by Mrs. Qinghe. Mrs. Qinghe said that Sect Master Shen had put her under house arrest, and dared to ask Sect Master Shen if this was true. ?"
Several family heads and heads from Fourth Master Feng's faction stood up one after another, took out letters, and said in unison: "It's strange, we also received the same letter asking for help."
The smile on Shen Jue's face finally became unbearable.
