Lord, I'm floating

Chapter 168 It’s clear who is right and who is wrong

Late at night, Chen Mou appeared on the top of Taisu Mountain, walking around to show his presence.

Bi Yan was clearing weeds in the green spiritual field at the foot of the mountain. With his feet in the mud and water and his sleeves rolled up, he walked up to the field and talked to the owner of the mountain under the shade shed.

"After a series of verifications, the Thorn Pavilion has issued an order contract, promising to complete the assassination mission within three years. If it fails by then, the deposit will be refunded and the reputation will be affected."

Bi Yan gave a brief explanation and said: "The time cannot last that long. The longer it takes, the more likely things will go wrong. In about a month and a half, we will create a reasonable opportunity for the killer. We are [-]% sure that Yunzhong Sword will take action."

Chen Mou did not ask about the specific details, nodded and said with a smile: "Please be careful, that friend of yours, I don't want to give the subsequent 100 million to Zhanji Pavilion."

Bi Yan corrected him seriously: "If the assassination is successful, you will have to pay the balance of 300 million."

"Your friend's life is too precious."

Chen Mou grimaced and handed over his hands: "Please, please, don't make any mistakes."

This was the first time that Bi Yan saw the young master frustrated, and he burst into laughter, "My friend asked for it himself. He said that his life is worth 400 million no matter what, and he doesn't need to pay for it anyway."

Chen Mou wiped his sweat. The higher the bid, the greater the danger. He was really not afraid of death.

He only has more than 40 yuan on hand, so he really thinks he is a fortune-seeking boy.

After joking for a while, Chen Mou returned to the secret room on the top of the mountain, leaving Yin Gui as a sounding board, and went back to his bedroom in Qingfeng Ridge to sleep.

After hard work and hard work, he must have a good rest and recuperate his energy to face the upcoming questioning.

In the next three days, Chen Mou did not go out. He stayed with Xu'er, who had never experienced any major events, and his mood was written on his face, talking and relaxing. Finally, when he was summoned by senior brother Yu Xiguang, he smiled with Xu'er and said: " There is a visitor from the Danyang Sect, and Senior Brother asked me to accompany him, saying that he is a friend of the Danyang Sect and wants to inquire about something."

Xu'er blinked her big eyes: "Master, I'll go with you."

Chen Mou waved his hand and said: "No, it's just a small matter, why bother with all the troops? I'll be right back."

With a relaxed expression, he arrived at the Nayunfeng Hall and was surprised to see Hao Dachang, an acquaintance he had met in Fangshi. The other two were unknown to him. The middle-aged monk who led him was very dignified.

Yu Xiguang stretched out his hand and introduced Chen Mou: "This is the Supreme Elder of Danyang Sect, Fellow Daoist Fang Zhengci Fang. He has something to ask you."

Chen Mou had dealt with fourth-level monks a lot, so he wouldn't have stage fright. He raised his hands and said, "I've met fellow Daoist Fang." He then gestured towards Hao Dachang and another gloomy-looking man in black robes.

Fang Zheng returned the greeting politely and asked with a straight-to-the-point smile: "Excuse me, Fellow Daoist Chen, did you see Hou Chulian, the despicable sect, five nights ago?"

Chen Mou said with a sincere face: "I've seen it before. That night, my maid and I spent the night on the top of a mountain five miles away from the Bottomless Cold Pond in the Tianlu Mountains. At about the end of Xu Shi, I was awakened from my practice by the movement of the attacking protective formation, and I discovered It’s your noble sect’s Hou Chulian who is here.”

The smile on Fang Zhengci's face did not change. He seemed to have understood the matter. He skipped the details and continued to ask: "Hou Chulian has been confirmed missing since meeting with Fellow Daoist Chen five days ago. No one has been seen alive or dead. Please inform Fellow Daoist Chen. Who else happened to be meeting that night?"

"It is true that Master Yuanying passed by, otherwise I would have been killed by Hou Chulian long ago."

Chen Mou's every move was aimed at Hou Chulian.

With his senior brother here, he seemed to be full of grievances and wanted to risk his life and defeat him today.

Yu Xiguang's eyes suddenly became sharp and he interjected: "Why is Hou Chulian targeting you? Fellow Taoist Fang happens to be here today, so please make it clear."

Chen Mou leaned over and said, "That night I saw that something was not right, so I activated the Image Stone in a hurry to prepare for any eventuality. I just wanted to let you guys listen to it to prove my innocence."

He took out a gray-white jade stone from his sleeve, stepped forward and handed it to his senior brother.

Yu Xiguang glanced at Fang Zhengci, who had a reluctant smile, and turned on the image stone. A dark picture appeared in the sky, but there was a sound.

"Hou Chulian, with your villainous behavior, aren't you afraid that Xuanduguan will settle the score with you?"

"Boy, what crime do you deserve for beguiling Mo Fu, who was originally an outer disciple of my Danyang Sect, to rebel against the sect? No matter how you quibble today, you can't escape." "..."

It was the verbal exchange between Chen Mou and Hou Chulian that night.

Until Chen Mou's heart-wrenching denunciation and Hou Chulian's angry attack ended, and the crucial moment ended just right, everyone in the hall looked at Chen Mou.

This guy has done a good job of providing evidence.

It is clear at a glance who is right and who is wrong.

If it was not intentional, no one would believe it.

But the truth is on Chen Mou's side. As a golden elixir monk, Hou Chulian went so far as to ambush a foundation builder in the wild. Just for such a reason, it would be fine if he succeeded, but he actually failed.

Fang Zhengci, who has been practicing for nearly 800 years, was a little embarrassed. He smiled awkwardly and said: "Hou Chulian's bad behavior almost accidentally hurt Daoyou Chen. Here, Fang apologizes on his behalf."

He bowed slightly and bowed slightly.

Chen Mou was sideways and was not affected. He said it so lightly. "Almost accidentally injured", is this still a human saying?
He chuckled in his heart and said: "I don't dare to take it seriously. I originally didn't want to hurt the peace between the two families. Now that Fellow Daoist Fang has come to visit me, if I don't clarify the truth, it will appear that I am in the wrong."

Hao Dachang, who was watching, almost broke out in a cold sweat. That fool Hou Chulian was narrow-minded and "didn't practice personal ethics and allowed his family to do evil". He was also left with such disgusting evidence by a foundation-building boy, which brought shame to the sect. They all followed. His face was dull.

Fang Zhengci looked serious and continued to ask: "Hou Chulian violated the sect's laws and will be punished according to the sect's rules. May I ask Fellow Daoist Chen, who injured Hou Chulian that night and took him away?"

Chen Mou shook his head apologetically: "I was so scared that I only dared to hide in the double protection formation. When I heard the fierce commotion outside, I didn't dare to peek out, so I just counted my breaths. Hou Chulian's begging for mercy disappeared, and there was no movement outside. It was enough. It took half an hour before I dared to go out to check, but the man had already left. Perhaps Hou Chulian had offended some senior master and was being followed for revenge?"

With his cultivation level, it is impossible to deal with Hou Chulian who is in the golden elixir realm. He can slap the shit basin on Hou Chulian casually and find reasons, believe it or not.

Fang Zhengci asked for a while, but couldn't find anything real.

It was very embarrassing for him to have that piece of evidence exposed in public, and leaving it any longer would only make people look down upon him.

Deep down, I was also quite angry that Hou Chulian's lax control of his subordinates had forced him to run away from a dazzling Ling Zhifu genius. Such a scandal could not be made public, so he suffered the loss of being mute.

He and Yu Xiguang walked aside and chatted alone for a long time.

He went to the Tianlu Mountains to see the scene. The uneven human-shaped holes left on the rocks were cracked. They were definitely caused by brute force and could not be the work of the three Nascent Soul monks from Xuanduguan.

After reaching a tacit agreement with Yu Xiguang that the scandal would not be spread outside and that the matter would end there, Fang Zhengci took his leave and left.

Send off Danyang Sect and his party.

Yu Xiguang looked at Chen Mou and asked with a smile: "Junior brother, now you can tell me who helped you a lot? I have to express my gratitude in person, otherwise you will be embarrassed."

Chen Mou cupped his hands and said, "That senior refused to let me know. If you forgive me, senior brother, just think that I owe that senior a favor."

Yu Xiguang was very free and easy. Even if he didn't believe it, he didn't ask any questions and waved his junior brother to leave.

He drifted back to the top of the mountain.

Chen Mou was relieved in his heart, and he also prepared a lot of words.

The atmosphere of getting along among the brothers of Xuandu Guanshi made him truly belong to the sect. This was a shelter from the wind and rain, without being bound by rules and morals.

When you practice and cultivate your mind, you cultivate yourself.
