Taishang Immortal Brigade

Chapter 108
One day, Xia He came out of Zhenlian Cave Mansion to receive materials, and heard a few passing disciples talking, "Have you heard that the sect's recent large-scale investigation of suspicious figures in the sect is not because of the demonization of Ma Tengkong."

"Yes, I heard that the Ma family that Ma Tengkong was born in is in great trouble. Although no problems have been found, they will be implicated. Some elders suggested that they should all be demoted from the sect. A family of cultivating immortals will be reduced to It's a pity that the family of casual cultivators is gone."

"Even if he was expelled from the sect, it would be a good end. Ma Weiyuan, who was captured under the Zhanxiantai that day, was in danger of life and death. He had talked with Ma Tengkong at that time, and the people in the war department wanted to kill him He was accused of colluding with demons, and now he is being punished to death, you don't know that the punishments given by the sect to monks of the demonic way are inhumane."

"Shi Yilang and Zhou Buming are really good friends. They are running around because of Ma Weiyuan. I feel sorry for them. They are all disciples of dilapidated families. They have no background and no backing. People are a lot haggard."

Xia He still wanted to listen, but the elder Zhenlian in the cave kept urging him, so he suppressed his curiosity, entered the Zhenlian cave, put the materials into the furnace step by step, and then gathered the slightly scattered real fire, Then he knelt and sat behind Elder Zhenlian, wanting to meditate and practice.

But today Xia He couldn't concentrate no matter what, he closed his eyes, and kept thinking back to the day when Shi Yilang and the other three came to visit, Ma Weiyuan presented the lion-tailed dragon and horse statue, with some reluctance in anticipation, and then The scene changed, and it was under Zhanxian Terrace again. Ma Weiyuan stopped in front of Ma Tengkong like a moth to a flame, and then fell down clutching his bleeding abdomen. Thinking of Ma Weiyuan being imprisoned innocently now, he must be suffering a lot at this moment.

"What's the matter, Xia He?" Elder Zhenlian seemed to feel the confusion in Xia He's heart, and asked, "Your mind is very chaotic, are you thinking about something? Distraction is the most taboo on the way of true practice. What's on your mind? Just say it out. This old man is your master, if you have problems that cannot be resolved, you can ask this old man for advice."

Xia He had something on his mind, and Elder Zhenlian asked him kindly, so he said what was on his mind, "I would like to report to Master, this disciple has something on his mind. On the day I was killed at the Immortal Stage, there was a disciple named Ma Weiyuan who was a good friend of my disciple. He is the nephew of Ma Tengkong's clan, and the generals took him away, saying that he was in collusion with the devils, just now I overheard someone say that he was severely tortured in the prison of the Law Enforcement Hall, and that's what he was thinking."

"Ma Tengkong, Ma Weiyuan." Elder Zhenlian said thoughtfully, "That's from the Ma family, it's a pity, the Ma family made outstanding achievements in the battle of exterminating demons, and they are a model for eliminating demons and defending the way. It's a pity that Ma Tengkong committed suicide Willing to fall into a devil, not only ruined himself, but also ruined the family's reputation for a thousand years. What, you and his nephew are good friends?"

In Xiahe's ears, he kept recalling Dugu Xiahou's repeated instructions, but the lion-tailed dragon and horse statues kept flashing in front of his eyes, and he was fighting fiercely in his heart. Finally, he nodded and said, "Yes, I cringed in my heart that day. People took him away, thinking about it today is really cowardly. Master, I know that what I said right now is inappropriate, but please be aware that Ma Weiyuan is innocent. He also scolded Ma Tengkong loudly that day, and was beaten by Ma Tengkong. He was seriously injured, and all the disciples present witnessed it."

Elder Zhenlian's expression remained unchanged, and he said, "So, what do you want to do now?"

Xia He knelt down and bowed to Elder Zhenlian, "I figured it out. I didn't want to get involved when I saw death that day, and I didn't want to be involved in it. You can protect yourself if you are wise, but you have lost your conscience. Now, I have nothing to ask for but peace of mind. , Master, please forgive me, this disciple is going to the Law Enforcing Hall to express his feelings to the seniors, Ma Weiyuan is really innocent."

The expression on Elder Zhenlian’s face remained unchanged. After hearing Xiahe’s sincere words, he said calmly, “Everything in the cauldron is almost ready, you can leave for a while, but remember, three In the future, we must return to the Zhenlian Cave on time, and when the time comes, we will open the furnace and refine the real form, and we cannot do without you as a disciple."

Seeing that Elder Zhenlian had no intention of blaming him, Xia He said gratefully, "Thank you, Master. The disciple has nothing to repay, so he can only be speechless. After the disciple has finished his work, he will come back to serve the master."

Xia He bid farewell to Elder Zhenlian, left Zhenlian Cave Mansion, left Xifayuan from the teleportation method, and flew to Nangu headquarters. The law enforcement hall taken over by the war department is in the Nangu headquarters, and Ma Weiyuan is locked in the prison of the law enforcement hall .

Elder Zhenlian watched Xiahe leave the cave, sighed after a long time, took out a sound transmission talisman, and said to himself in the talisman, "Mingjing, it seems that this time I will accept your favor, and it is really a good idea to accept disciples." Troubling things, but fortunately, he has not lost his innocence, and he is a man who can be made."

After speaking, a ray of light flashed in Elder Zhenlian's hand, and the sound transmission talisman disappeared in an instant. Zhenlian's cave was quiet, and a distant sigh came from the empty cave. The three-legged square tripod has not moved since ancient times.

Xia He didn't know what was going on behind him. He had already arrived at the Law Enforcement Hall. Many generals were patrolling in front of the Law Enforcement Hall. When they saw a disciple about to enter the Law Enforcement Hall, they shouted loudly, "Stop, don't you know where this place is? There are demon cultivators from the Sifang Immortal Sect , The law enforcement hall is under martial law today, and idlers are not allowed to enter."

The Law Enforcing Hall has been taken over by the War Department, and the people patrolling the door are all Jindan stage real people, Xia He was stopped by them, and said respectfully, "The disciple is Xia He from Xifayuan, and a fellow student named Ma Weiyuan was involved in the In the case of Ma Tengkong becoming a demon, the disciple came here today to testify for him and prove his innocence."

Hearing what Xia He said, the general shouted, "Bold, Ma Weiyuan is the nephew of Ma Tengkong, a monk of the magic way. Ma Tengkong was never married and had no children. Among the Ma family, Ma Weiyuan and Ma Tengkong had the closest relationship. Demon, Ma Weiyuan can't get rid of his relationship, if you want to intercede for him, you must be his accomplice."

Xia He somewhat regretted his impulsiveness. Before coming here, he had not inquired about the specific situation of the law enforcement hall. He couldn't find the way, but was stopped at the door. To be honest, I would also like to ask a few seniors to help the disciple to spread the word, the disciple wants to testify for Ma Weiyuan."

The general said impatiently, "Another pleading for Ma Weiyuan. This kid has quite a few friends. A few days ago, there were two boys who came to the Law Enforcement Hall every day. It seems that one is called Shi Yilang. Today you come again , What a trouble, if you don't leave, I'll take you into prison, and then, there will be no one else to intercede for you."

Xia He was speechless. At this time, he realized that although he thought highly of himself, except for Elder Zhenlian behind him, there was nothing that made others look up to him. No wonder, these generals of the war department, How could he care about a small foundation-establishing disciple, and Xia He was reserved, unwilling to report his master's name, so he was stopped by the general.

Just when Xia He was at his wit's end, a warrior walked out of the Law Enforcement Hall. He glanced at Xia He and whispered a few words to the warrior who stopped Xia He. The warrior who stopped Xia He looked at Xia He in surprise, "I didn't expect that, You boy is a person with all-hands and eyes, and you can find the relationship above. In this regard, Shi Yilang is not as good as you, well, you can go in."

The general who came out last said to Xia He, "Follow me, the boss and distinguished guests are waiting for you in the inner hall."

Xia He followed the war generals into the law enforcement hall. The law enforcement hall had a solemn atmosphere. From time to time, war generals walked by in groups. Each team had at least ten Jindan real people. Xia He was led by war generals, and he was not embarrassed along the way. Arrived in the inner hall smoothly.

There were only two people in the inner hall, one was Zhan Pozhen, the leader of the Fourth War Division that Xia He had seen before, and the other was the old man Mo Jing who brought Xia He into the West Fayuan, Zhan Pozhen was in front of the old man Mo Jing , the posture was very low, and he was not at all high-spirited in front of the heads of the war department. Xia He had already guessed that the old man Mojing was a great monk in the Nascent Soul Stage.

Seeing Xia He coming in, the old man Mo Jing stood up from his seat, he laughed and said, "Okay, break the formation, the master is here, you just go about your business, don't listen to me anymore."

Zhan Pozhen was standing, and he was not qualified to sit in front of the Supreme Elder in the Nascent Soul Stage. Perhaps before Xia He came in, the old man Mojing said something to him. Zhan Pozhen's attitude was extremely kind, and he Xia He said, "This disciple, I heard that you are going to testify for a suspect in the prison, what evidence do you have?"

Xia He saw the old man Mo Jing, and then thought of the familiarity between the old man Mo Jing and the elder Zhen Lian when he met the elder Zhenlian for the first time. He vaguely guessed in his heart who the old man Mo Jing invited to come to support him. No end, but it is inconvenient to express it at this moment. Hearing Zhan Pozhen's question, he replied, "The disciple was also under the Zhanxian platform that day, and saw Ma Weiyuan's loyalty and unyielding with his own eyes. The horse was injured in the air, the wound should not have healed, it is in the lower abdomen, which can be used as physical evidence."

Zhan Pozhen frowned, and said, "We all know what you said. Ma Weiyuan's suffering was indeed not light, but Ma Tengkong's cultivation level, if he wants to make a move, he can kill him with one blow, so why bother?" The injury is neither serious nor serious, it will not seriously injure him, but it can also help him get rid of the suspicion, this is the biggest doubt about Ma Weiyuan, the wound on the lower abdomen may not be used as physical evidence."

Xia He didn't take this into consideration. If the truth is the same as what Zhan Pozhen said, then Ma Tengkong should still have human nature, and deliberately injured Ma Weiyuan in order to save Ma Weiyuan, but Xia He had no choice but to say , "Many people present witnessed the scene where Ma Weiyuan scolded Ma Tengkong with their own eyes. This should be true."

Zhan Pozhen said helplessly, "This is the truth. If it weren't for this, Ma Weiyuan would have been sentenced to prison long ago, and he would not have interrogated him carefully. Disciple, if you don't have any other evidence, it may be difficult to Excuse Ma Weiyuan."
