Chapter 705
Yang Ruping also said, "Don't worry, Deputy Hall Chief Zhong. I'll immediately send someone to Lingxiang Peak and tell the whole story to Hierarch His Excellency!"
"The whole story?"
Deputy Hall Chief Zhong sneered and said, "I haven't seen Zhang Xiaohu yet, but Hall Chief Zhong already knows the whole story?"
Then, without waiting for Yang Ruping to answer, he cupped his hands and said, "Hall Chief Yang, I'm going to ask Zhang Xiaohu something. Will Hall Chief Zhong follow me?"
Yang Ruping gritted her teeth and said, "Forget it. Since Deputy Hall Chief Zhong volunteered, I'll leave it to you. You can report to me after you get the result."
After saying that, he turned around and walked away. But when he was halfway, he turned back and said, "I forgot that after Deputy Hall Master Zhong finishes his questioning, I may also have something to ask. Therefore, you can't torture Zhang Xiaohu, Changge, and Chen Chen at will. If there is anything wrong with these three people, I will ask you."
Deputy Hall Chief Zhong laughed and said loudly, "Hall Chief Yang, if I don't torture them, how can I make them tell the truth?
Do you think it's possible? "
"Haha." Yang Ruping ignored him and said, "That depends on your means!"
"You ~" Deputy Hall Chief Zhong was angry and stared at Yang Ruping's back for a long time. Then he laughed and looked at the token in his hand with disdain on his face.
This was a room similar to the dungeon on Baiyuefeng, but there were burning torches on the wall. Zhang Xiaohu was sitting on a stool and looking coldly at Zhong Pei and Zhao Jian who were walking into the cell.
Zhong Pei walked to Zhang Xiaohu and stared at him for a long time. Then he reached out and pointed at the major acupoint on Zhang Xiaohu's chest. A stream of internal force flowed into Zhang Xiaohu's meridians. After circulating for a while, Zhong Pei said with a smile, "Congratulations, Nephew Zhang. I haven't seen you for dozens of days, but your internal force has made a big breakthrough."
Zhang Xiaohu narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "Please don't laugh at me, Deputy Hall Chief Zhong. How can my little internal force be noticed by Hall Chief Zhong?
Could it be because of this that you captured me? "
Vice Hall Master Zhong shook his head and said, "You started cultivating your Internal Strength late, and your foundation is too bad. Even if you ate some heavenly treasure in the Youlan Grand Canyon, your cultivation would still be at your current level. How can I care about it?"
Zhang Xiaohu was surprised and said, "Vice Hall Master Zhong is wise. This disciple only ate a scarlet fruit in the Youlan Grand Canyon, which greatly increased my internal energy. Moreover, Junior Sister Changge and Junior Sister Chen Chen also ate it. You will know if you ask."
Hall Chief Zhong't't's's's's't's was's was' ''t't't's Pei's's, I'.. and I ''t't't''s's have't't't't's's's ask...
. "Zhang Xiaohu glanced at Zhao Jian whose expression had changed. He asked curiously," Then why did Deputy Hall Chief Zhong bring me here so late at night? "
Vice Hall Master Zhong said with a smile, "Zhang Xiaohu, don't try to avoid the important and dwell on the trivial. With your current inner strength, even if you eat two more Cinnabar Fruits, you may not be able to enter my eyes. You should tell me in detail what is going on with the beast tide in the Youlan Grand Canyon!"
"Red fruit?
Beast tide? "Zhang Xiaohu was stunned and said," That red fruit is the legendary red fruit?
It seems different from what I imagined. "
Then, he said in confusion, "Our Misty Hall's convoy didn't encounter any beast tide, only a pack of blood wolves. This … Senior Brother Zhao, who led the convoy, knows it better than this disciple!"
Deputy Hall Chief Zhong didn't even look at Zhao Jian and said, "What Zhao Jian should say has been said. What I want to know is what happened to you and what you did!" "It's very simple.
After we were discovered by the pack of blood wolves that day, we ran for our lives. However, we were still surrounded by blood wolves. This disciple, Changge, and Chen Chen's horses were faster, and our direction was different from that of the other disciples. By the time they surrounded us, the other disciples had already disappeared. Of course, this disciple and the other disciples were no match for the pack of blood wolves. After our horses were eaten by the blood wolves, the disciples were desperately trying to resist. Then, we heard a loud cry in the sky, so the pack of blood wolves left the disciples behind and left! "
Deputy Hall Chief Zhong was dumbfounded, "So simple?"
"Yes?"
"Nonsense ~" Zhao Jian, who was next to him, was' extraordinarily angry 'and shouted, "Why didn't I hear it?
It's simply nonsense! "
"Hey ~ When we were surrounded by the pack of blood wolves, where was Senior Brother Zhao?
How could you not hear it? "
Zhang Xiaohu sneered.
"Shut up!
I didn't ask you to say it! "
Deputy Hall Chief Zhong turned around and scolded Zhao Jian, then asked, "Then why didn't you return to Shixin Peak earlier like Zhao Jian?
Instead, you stayed there for so long? "
Zhang Xiaohu said innocently, "Vice Hall Master Zhong, have you forgotten? Didn't this disciple say it just now?
When Junior Sister Changge and Junior Sister Chen Chen were hungry and thirsty, we ate the vermilion fruit and then fainted! "
Deputy Hall Chief Zhong was speechless. The "vermilion fruit" was only a legend. Many years ago, there were indeed inner disciples who had eaten it, but he had never seen it himself. Naturally, he didn't know the symptoms of taking it. There was no way to verify this.
After thinking for a while, Zhong Pei said with a smile, "I didn't expect that Junior Nephew Zhang's method of making up a story is so first-class. It's almost like a scholar writing a book, watertight. However, this is not what I want to know. You'd better tell me about the beast tide!"
Zhang Xiaohu furrowed his brows. The plot that he came up with was something that he and Changge had come up with. They only blamed everything on that loud cry. Anyway, they had heard it before, and besides them, there were no other living people, so it was impossible for them to verify it. When they left the valley, they heard that Zhao Jian had also escaped danger. They were surprised, but the matter of repelling the blood wolves was indeed inhumane. They didn't have any good ideas, and after thinking about it, it was just like that. Anyway, three people's words were more credible than one person's, and there might not be anyone who would really investigate.
However, Zhang Xiaohu and the others didn't expect that someone would really investigate the details. At this point, they could only bite the bullet and continue. Anyway, Zhang Xiaohua's matter must not be mentioned!
Moreover, Zhang Xiaohu also knew that the status of female disciples in the Misty School was different. Even if Changge and Chen Chen were captured, Deputy Hall Chief Xu wouldn't do anything to them. He could only grit his teeth and bite the bullet. That was it, who could do anything about it?
However, at this time, Deputy Hall Chief Xu didn't care about the blood wolves, but mentioned the beast tide, which really made Zhang Xiaohu puzzled!
Therefore, Zhang Xiaohu probed, "I don't know what Deputy Hall Chief Xu wants to know about the beast tide?
I was with Senior Brother Zhao before I encountered the blood wolves, so I should know less than Senior Brother Zhao. "
"That's all on the surface. Zhao Jian is just an ordinary disciple of your Misty School. How would he know the core secrets of your Misty School?
Your Misty School is also a big sect. Don't tell me you don't have any secrets?
Or, don't you have any means to cause a beast tide? "
"Of course, I know that you have only been in the sect for a short period of time. You may not have any feelings for the Ethereal Sect, but you did it because of someone's instigation. If you say it, yes, even if you say it's a name, this hall will let you go immediately. Don't worry, not to mention the merit of your report, even if you bring back four carriages full of Spirit Herbs, this hall will be lenient with you."
"You … Don't you want to say one or two names?"
"You …" Zhang Xiaohu was angry. At this time, he knew that Deputy Hall Chief Zhong's plan was to wipe out the Misty School's forces in one fell swoop!
Moreover, he even used the beast tide as a reason.
What is a beast tide? It is related to the lives of thousands of disciples of the Fragrant Religion. Not to mention that Zhang Xiaohu didn't know the whole story. Even if he knew that it was related to the Misty School, he would absolutely not say it.
"Deputy Hall Chief Xu really thinks highly of this disciple. How could this disciple provoke a beast tide?
There is no one behind me who instigated it! "
Zhang Xiaohu said coldly, but resolutely.
"But, how do you explain how you drove the four carriages from the east of the Youlan Grand Canyon? Well, using elk as mounts, you drove the carriages to the south exit?
That's across the entire Youlan Prairie. How could you not encounter any ferocious beast?
Don't tell me that with your martial arts, you are invincible in the Youlan Grand Canyon!
Hahaha ~ ~ "
Zhang Xiaohu was speechless. This was the truth. He regretted not listening to Zhang Xiaohua's advice in the Youlan Grand Canyon. He could only smile and say, "Perhaps this disciple's character is good, or perhaps it is the blessing of our Misty Hall. This disciple really didn't encounter any ferocious beast!"
Seeing Zhang Xiaohu push the blame away, Deputy Hall Chief Xu didn't get angry. Instead, he confidently said, "Martial Nephew Zhang, you are our Hall's younger generation. We don't want to be too strict with you. If you are an outstanding person, you should be able to adapt to the current situation. But if you don't accept the toast, then the only thing waiting for you is the punishment of drinking!"
Zhang Xiaohu looked at Zhong Pei and then looked at Zhao Jian. He knew that if he mentioned the horse's neigh at this time, it would only add to the joke. Instead, it would arouse Zhao Jian's suspicion. Even Zhang Xiaohu began to suspect that Deputy Hall Chief Zhong had instructed Zhao Jian to do something!
This kind of thing can only be effective in front of Hall Chief Yang!
Therefore, Zhang Xiaohu shook his head and said, "This kid is stupid. He only knows how to tell the truth.
If you want this kid to make up something, then you should find someone else. "
Then, he pointed at Zhao Jian with his chin and said, "This Senior Zhao seems to have a deep understanding of this."
"You …" Zhao Jian's face was very ugly.
"Hehe, why is your Misty School full of trash that doesn't know how to appreciate kindness?
First, there was He Tianshu, and now there is you. Do you think you can resist more than He Tianshu?
Martial Nephew Zhang, think about He Tianshu's appearance. If you wait until that point, your life will be ruined. What fun will there be? "
Hearing Deputy Hall Chief Zhong's words, Zhang Xiaohu's face changed slightly. However, this matter was not only related to his brother, but also to the people of the Misty School who were implicated by Deputy Hall Chief Zhong. How could he say it?
Zhang Xiaohu almost believed it. Even if he told the whole thing now, Deputy Hall Chief Zhong might not believe him. He only wanted … what he wanted!!!
