The early morning wind was blowing slightly in Chaosi Lane, but what was blowing was a wave of heat. The practitioners did not change much, but the people gathered outside the courtyard to look out and sweated heavily, and were suffering mentally and physically.

They dare not get too close, nor can they see clearly what the scene was like in the courtyard. The impatient heart and the hot sun were very uncomfortable.

Chaosi Lane is not big at all, and neighbors often walk around. Although Li Mengzhou is the person who lives in Chaosi Lane for the shortest time, he has more or less feelings for these neighbors, such as eating noodles at Aunt Feng’s noodle shop every day, forging Pudao in Liu’s shop, buying wine in the tavern opposite, etc.

Aunt Feng is the one who helped Li Mengzhou the most, but other residents in Chaosi Lane have also helped Li Mengzhou. When Li Mengzhou has time, he will also help his neighbors with small benefits, such as work that needs to be done.

Now the courtyard is full of officers and soldiers, and the residents of Chaosi Lane cannot help Li Mengzhou, but their worries are very real.

Xie Chunfeng, who appeared in the courtyard at this moment, looked a little ugly.

The atmosphere in the entire courtyard was depressing and tense, and it felt like the storm was coming.

Xie Ning was also in a heavy mood. He was very close to Lu Changge in the mountains. Although Lu Changge had a bad temper and was arrogant, he was quite happy to get along with his classmates. Now Lu Changge is dead, and the murderer may be Li Mengzhou. If Xie Ning was indifferent, it would be unreasonable.

He naturally had the idea of ​​avenging Lu Changge, but he knew very well that with his strength, he could not do anything to Li Mengzhou at all. Now he was just gritting his teeth and staring at the seemingly vague Li Mengzhou, very angry.

When Xie Chunfeng first appeared, Mu Nan smiled. It was obvious that in this situation, Xuan Zhengsi and Bu Luoshan were standing on the same side. If Li Mengzhou resisted at this time, then there would be a disciple of Wu Luoshan to deal with it. Even if Li Mengzhou was killed by mistake, it would have nothing to do with Xuan Zhengsi.

As long as the practitioner does not cause trouble in the capital, any disputes between the disciples of the two mountain gates are not within the responsibilities of Xuan Zhengsi. There is no difference between them and whoever dies, and whoever dies is actually obvious. If Li Mengzhou and Xie Chunfeng fight, it is actually obvious who will die in the end.

The soldiers of Xuanzhengsi were secretly signaled by Mu Nan, and the body of Lu Changge, who had already been with him, was quickly placed in the center of the courtyard and presented to the disciples of the Bulu Mountain.

Lu Changge's body was lying quietly there, and the scars scratched by the sharp weapon on his neck were clearly visible. Although the blood had solidified, it had not been cleaned up, just like when he first died.

The pair of eyes dying with their eyes were presented to the disciples who did not fall. They were all angry and drew their swords and pointed at Li Mengzhou.

Xie Ning finally couldn't help it and stepped forward and said, "Li Gong Jianyuan bullies people too much!"

These words directly raised the situation to a higher level. He targeted not only Li Mengzhou, but the entire Ligong Sword Courtyard.

Li Mengzhou remained silent.

He slowly stood up from the rattan chair, looked at everyone in the courtyard calmly, and said lightly: "I admit that I killed Lu Changge. I believe you have investigated the matter here clearly. You have suspicious in your heart but can't find any evidence."

"But I want to say that Lu Changge has been peeping outside Chaosi Lane many times, and even showed murderous intentions to me. Although he did not really do anything, I could not wait for him to fight back when he really attacked me. Since he had already shown murderous intentions to me, it would be reasonable for me to kill him. The only difference is that I took action before him."

These words sound very reasonable. As the saying goes, "Preventing problems before they happen, since people have the idea of ​​killing themselves, of course they have to fight back, so there seems to be no problem?"

But from another perspective, although Lu Changge was peeping in secret, he didn't really do anything, and it could not constitute a death sentence, so he killed him directly, which seemed a little far-fetched.

There is no absolute truth in the world. People from different positions will certainly look at problems differently. There is nothing worth discussing about this matter.

Li Mengzhou followed his original intention and was of course correct in his position.

On the victim's side, it is the exact opposite.

It is impossible to really make a difference.

Xie Chunfeng didn't think about this issue either. It was true that Lu Changge was killed by Li Mengzhou, so he always had to do something about it.

Xie Ning's idea was very simple. He said angrily: "Don't make a sophist! No matter what the reason you are for, it is also true that Senior Brother Lu was killed by you. There must be an explanation! Is this the style of your Ligong Sword Academy? Killing other disciples, give a reason at will and you can act as nothing happened?!"

Li Mengzhou looked at Xie Ning and said, "Don't you think your words are contradictory? You want me to give an explanation, I have already given it. As for whether you can agree, that's your business. Since you don't agree, why bother me to give an explanation?"

Xie Ning was speechless for a moment.

Of course, he had thought of asking Li Mengzhou to pay Lu Changge's life, but in that case, Li Gong Jianyuan and Buluoshanmen would really be immortal. Although he was young, he didn't know anything. What would happen in the end was not something he could decide.

Li Mengzhou didn't care what Xie Ning was thinking, and said to himself: "I am a disciple of the Ligong Inner Courtyard. Maybe I will be personally taught by Ligong in the future. The only rule of the Ligong Sword Court is that you must not suffer any loss. As the saying goes, it is a bastard who doesn't take advantage of it. It is a blessing to suffer losses. I absolutely don't want it. This is my attitude. If you want to fight, I will continue."

The courtyard was very quiet.

Li Mengzhou's voice was extremely loud.

There was no passionate and plain words, but his attitude was fully expressed.

Very shameless.

That's right, these words were extremely shameless and shameless declarations in the ears of Xie Ning and his disciples.

But Ligong Jianyuan is indeed not a place to reason. Even the third senior sister only occasionally talks about reason when she is willing. However, the final result has nothing to do with the reason she is talking about, and it still needs to be solved with strength.

Pride itself is also a kind of shamelessness.

The sword cultivators in Ligong Sword Court are all extremely proud people, and naturally they are extremely shameless people.

That penetrates into the bones.

"Young brother said it well!"

A loud voice suddenly rang outside the courtyard.

Ning Haoran, wearing a white shirt, stepped over the threshold of the courtyard, and behind him were Jiang Zihua and Ye Jinyu, as well as disciples of the sword courtyard such as He Zhengrong and Shen Jiyue.

Ye Jinyu had just returned to the capital, and happened to Jiang Zihua received a message from Miss Wu, and immediately notified the fourth senior brother Ning Haoran that he met halfway through, which was related to Li Mengzhou, and Ye Jinyu also came with him.

Regardless of his impression of Li Mengzhou, the concept implemented by Ligong Sword Academy is deeply rooted in the hearts of disciples. If the fellow disciples are in trouble, they should help them all.

The courtyard in Chaosi Lane is not very big. Xuan Zhengsi did not fall into the mountains, and the people in Ligong Jianyuan almost filled the entire courtyard, which seemed very crowded.

Even so, it is obvious that three camps were divided.

Mu Nan seemed to have become a bystander. He was very happy to see Ligong Jianyuan fighting with Buluoshan. Even though he was in the same camp as Buluoshan on the surface, he stood a little further.

Ning Haoran stood in front of Li Mengzhou, looked around the people in the courtyard, and said in a calm voice without any emotion: "I will never suffer any loss when I leave the Palace Sword Courtyard. If I want to touch my junior brother, I will first ask about the sword in my hand."

Xie Chunfeng frowned, and he looked at Ning Haoran and said, "My junior brother Lu Changge was killed by Li Mengzhou in the prison of Xuan Zhengsi. This is a matter of conclusive evidence. You are really so unreasonable to protect Li Mengzhou, and even want to start a war with me?"

Even though he knew that the people in Ligong Sword Court could not reason, Ning Haoran's move still embarrassed Xie Chunfeng.

Ning Haoran also looked back at Xie Chunfeng and said calmly: "Your junior brother died because he was too weak, so how could he blame my junior brother? It was just because he lost to my junior brother on the fifth floor, so he was so cautious and waited for an opportunity to take revenge. He was still your true disciple who would not fall into the mountains, and he was not ashamed."

Xie Chunfeng said in a cold voice: "Lu Changge has the idea of ​​revenge on Li Mengzhou, which is indeed wrong with him, but then again, he just had that idea and had just made some moves, but he did not really take action. He was already punished in the Xuanzhengsi prison. This matter could have been resolved happily, so why did he have to kill someone?"

"According to this situation, the death of Mr. Zhu is obviously not done by my junior brother Lu. I don't care who killed Mr. Zhu, but Li Mengzhou's behavior of sneaking into the Xuanzhengsi prison to kill my junior brother Lu is a very trivial thing in your eyes?"

In fact, Xie Chunfeng's words were quite tactful. When things developed to this point, it didn't matter who killed Mr. Zhu. But if it weren't for Lu Changge, the real murderer would undoubtedly have directionality. However, Xie Chunfeng did not say it clearly, and was obviously telling Ning Haoran that he had no intention of making a big deal.

But Ning Haoran's attitude had already angered him a little.

Ning Haoran had a expressionless face and was slightly silent.

He also knew very well that although Lu Changge was wrong at first, Li Mengzhou made a lot of mistakes, but he could not push his junior brother out. Just as Xie Chunfeng wanted to protect his junior brother, Ning Haoran also wanted to protect his junior brother. It was also because of his different positions and it was difficult to reason.

He didn't care about declaring war with the Blessed Mountain, but it cannot be denied that once he left the Palace Sword Court and the Blessed Mountain and the Blessed Mountain will never stop, the situation will become very complicated, and more junior brothers may even die.

Ning Haoran thought for a moment, looked at Xie Chunfeng and said, "Lu Changge is dead. He can not mention his fault, and Li Mengzhou is also wrong, but I will not allow him to be hurt. Li Gong Sword Court can punish Li Mengzhou and give you an explanation not to fall. This is the bottom line. If you agree, everyone will be happy. If you disagree, then you can only fight for one battle."

Ning Haoran made some concessions, but the fundamental purpose was to protect Li Mengzhou, which was something that could not be accepted by not falling into the mountains.

Lu Changge is already dead, and Li Mengzhou is just punished, which is too unfair.

Before Xie Chunfeng said anything, Xie Ning couldn't help but speak, "Don't Mr. Fourth think this is too much? If the person who died was Li Mengzhou, and we didn't fall into the mountain, just punish Senior Brother Lu, what should Mr. Fourth think?"

Ning Haoran looked at Xie Ning and said lightly: "There is nothing fair in the world. Everything depends on strength. In the world of cultivators, this is even more reasonable. Ligong Sword Academy is the upper sect of the fifth realm, and you are only the fifth realm sect. In terms of identity and power, Ligong Sword Academy is higher than you. Therefore, your assumption is very problematic."

There are also differences among the five realms sects. There are many five realms sects within the Jiang Kingdom, but the five realms sects are very rare. Apart from the supreme status of the Lihua Academy's national sect, there are only two five realms sects in the Jiang Kingdom.

One is Zhaixing Mansion.

The second is Ligong Sword Courtyard.

Although Jianjiayuan and Buluoshan are among the top five sects in Jiangguo, they are still not as good as Zhaixing Mansion and Ligong Sword Courtyard.

It was just because there were few disciples of Ligong Sword Academy, and they gradually declined and lived up to the reputation of the upper sect of the Five Realms. But as long as Xue Wangyou was still alive, Ligong Sword Academy would always be one of the most peak practice gates in Jiang Kingdom.

Xie Ning was once again speechless by Ning Haoran.

It’s really uncomfortable to face such unreasonable people. They obviously have a lot to say, but they just can’t say it, and they’re very frustrated.

Mu Nan suddenly smiled and said, "The world of monks is respected by strength. Mr. Fourth said this, but Li Mengzhou killed Lu Changge in the Xuanzhengsi prison, and there was also a suspect of murdering Mr. Zhu. There is also conclusive evidence of the death of Zhang Chong, the general of the military headquarters. It cannot be simply attributed to the matter between monks."

Ning Haoran said expressionlessly: "My junior brother just admitted that he killed Lu Changge in the Xuanzhengsi prison. Why is there any suspicion of murdering Mr. Zhu? Zhang Chong, the general of the military headquarters, was a distorted person, which was originally a shame to the military headquarters. What is the fault of my junior brother doing justice?"

He was determined to implement unreasonableness to the end.

This matter is indeed a bit hard to say. Although everyone can clearly understand what Li Mengzhou did, the original evidence did point to Lu Changge. Now that Lu Changge is dead, it is normal to reasonably suspect Li Mengzhou, but it is difficult to produce any evidence.

All Li Mengzhou admitted in person was the killing of Lu Changge, and he kept silent about the murder of Mr. Zhu. Even if he knew very well that Li Mengzhou was the real murderer, he could not do anything to him.

Since Xuan Zhengshi could not produce evidence, it was just a matter between Ligong Jianyuan and Buluoshan, and Mu Nan was no longer qualified to intervene.

But this is obviously not the result that Mu Nan is willing to see. He looked at Ning Haoran with a serious expression and said, "It is difficult for Mr. Fourth to be so rude. Even if I can't provide evidence that Li Mengzhou was trying to murder Mr. Zhu, he was very suspicious after all. Xuan Zhengshi was qualified to inquire and even asked Li Mengzhou to cooperate with the investigation. With His Majesty's golden jade plaque, he could not refuse even if he left the Palace Sword Court."

He Zhengrong, who had been watching by the side, came to Chen Jiyue and whispered: "What is that golden jade plaque?"

Although the He family was a prominent family, their position in the court was not very high. As a concubine, He Zhengrong was born when He family was in decline. He was even less knowledgeable about the temple than ordinary people.

Chen Jiyue's family is also a big family in Tongzhou. Although she is not as good as the Ye clan, the richest man in Jiang Country, she also stands at a very high position in the pyramid. She has a lot of understanding and even contact with him in both the court and the world of cultivation. She briefly explained the role of the golden-font jade plaque to He Zhengrong, and then said with concern: "Mu Nan has the golden-font jade plaque in his hand. I am afraid that even the fourth senior brother can't say anything. If he openly says something false, it would be a great disrespect to His Majesty."

Ye Jinyu frowned slightly and said, "Li Mengzhou was not reasonable either. He wanted to turn big things into nothing. Unless the teacher came forward personally, it would be enough to block all retreats."

Jiang Zihua kept silent. He thought to himself that Li Mengzhou could make trouble more than himself. How could the people in the capital be killed casually? He was really running over the street. Most of the people he bumped into may have a considerable identity background, let alone a powerful figure like Zhu Zaitian and Lu Changge who were already on the open background.

Compared with Lu Changge's identity, Zhu Zaitian District's Assistant Minister of Xuan Zhengsi has no background, but he is still the Assistant Minister of Xuan Zhengsi. Even if Xuan Zhengsi can't make a fortune, he will definitely not give up.

How could Xu Hexian, who is in charge of the entire Xuanzhengsi, ignore the dead minister? That was a provocation to Xuanzhengsi and also a provocation to Xu Hexian. If he didn't do anything, where would Xu Hexian's face be put?

Ning Haoran's expression also became a little uncomfortable. He could be unreasonable about other things, but seeing the golden-shaped jade plaque is equivalent to meeting His Majesty the Emperor. If he chooses to ignore it, it would be a blatant slap His Majesty the Emperor in the face.

If the Xuan Zhengsi can be pushed out, it will be relatively simple to solve the problem between leaving the Palace Sword Court and Bulushan. However, looking at this situation, it will be difficult for the Xuan Zhengsi who is already in the bureau to easily push out.

Just as the courtyard fell into silence again, the sound of wheels rolling outside the courtyard walls sounded, and there was also the screams of horses. A black-panned carriage stopped steadily outside the courtyard gate of Chaosi Lane.

The curtain of the car was lifted, and an old man in green clothes slowly walked down. He was holding a wine pot in his hand and walked past the threshold with his feet. The crowded people in the yard made way for no reason. Judging from their somewhat surprised expression, it was obvious that they did not give way.

Most of the people standing near the gate of the courtyard were soldiers of Xuan Zhengshi and disciples who were not far away. Although the old man in green clothes was just walking forward casually, he did not deliberately squeeze in, but he easily came to the center of the courtyard.
Chapter completed!
