Chapter 718
Chapter 718
By the time Chen Chen saw Yang Ruping, Zhang Xiaohua's story had also ended. Chen Chen did not delay any further. He spurred his maroon horse and rushed out of the crowd. When Yang Ruping saw this, she hurriedly came out to greet him. When the two of them got closer, Chen Chen dismounted from his horse and took out a fist-sized jade talisman. He held it high and said, "I've come to Shixin Peak on the orders of the sect leader to settle the dispute between Hall Master Yang Ruping and Vice Hall Master Zhong Pei."
Yang Ruping bowed and said, "Thank you for your concern, Sect Master."
Then, Chen Chen handed over the jade talisman and said with a smile, "Senior Sister Yang, please tell me your identity."
Hearing Chen Chen call her "Senior Sister Yang", Yang Ruping was relieved. According to the rules, she was the Hall Master of the Misty Hall, so Chen Chen should call her "Hall Master Yang". Now, he called her "Senior Sister Yang" in front of her, which meant that they were close. So, she took the jade talisman and looked at it carefully. Then, she handed it back and said with a smile, "Welcome to Shixin Peak, Junior Sister Chen. Thank you for your hard work."
Chen Chen took the jade talisman and put it in his arms. He shook his head and said, "It's not hard work. I'm just helping Sect Master.
I've heard of your name for a long time, but I didn't have the chance to meet you. Now, seeing you in person is better than hearing about you. "
Yang Ruping smiled bitterly and said, "What do you mean by 'famous'? I'm very stupid and I'm not good at dealing with the affairs of the Hall. Sect Master put the Misty Hall in my hands, but I caused so much trouble and troubled Sect Master. Junior Sister, please don't laugh at me."
"Haha." Chen Chen stopped talking. At this time, Aunt Qin, Zhong Pei and the others also approached. Zhang Xiaohua pretended to be young among the inner disciples, so they couldn't see anything special about her. Yang Ruping glanced at the crowd and said to Chen Chen, "Junior Sister Chen, do you want to take a rest now or ask the questions directly?"
Chen Chen looked at the many disciples standing solemnly behind Yang Ruping and nodded. "There's no need to rest. Let's just ask them directly. This has dragged on for many days. I'm sure that Zhang Xiaohu, Changge and... Chen Chen must have suffered a lot. Please call them here, Hall Master Yang."
When he mentioned the name "Chen Chen", there was a hint of excitement in his tone, which made Yang Ruping a little confused.
When Zhang Xiaohua, who was in the crowd, heard this, he felt his head explode. "What?
Zhang Xiaohu … was wronged!!! "
"What's going on?"
"Second Brother brought back four carriages worth of Spirit Grass and even saved a female Inner Sect disciple. How could he get into trouble?"
Zhang Xiaohua looked around, the corner of his eyes twitching slightly, and his teeth grinding. At this time, he also thought of the scene when he met Liu Qiaogang on the mountain road. Presumably, all the disciples of the Misty Hall knew what was going on. "Who can tell me what happened?"
Zhang Xiaohua shouted in her heart.
At this moment, Yang Ruping asked, "Yes, Emissary Chen, where would you like to ask?"
"Ethereal Hall," Chen Chen said indifferently.
"Emissary, please follow me."
With that, Yang Ruping led the way and led Chen Chen inside.
The younger disciples of the inner sect also followed Chen Chen. Zhang Xiaohua mingled in the crowd. After a moment of hesitation, he followed as well. Chen Chen did not ask him to go out. He wanted to see what happened to his second brother.
At this time, Zhang Xiaohua was not in the mood to look at the scenery of Shixin Peak. She just followed the disciples and was puzzled. "What happened to Second Brother!"
Not long after, everyone came to the Ethereal Hall.
Although the Ethereal Hall was big, it could not accommodate everyone. Chen Chen looked back and pointed. "You, you … and you, come in with me."
After that, he stepped into the Ethereal Hall. Among these people, Zhang Xiaohua was among them.
Zhang Xiaohua did not understand why Chen Chen called her in, but this was exactly what she wanted. She quietly followed the crowd into the Ethereal Hall.
Needless to say, there were rules about who could enter the Ethereal Hall and who could not. After the disciples of Lingxiang Peak went in, the others also went in and stood in their own positions.
Zhang Xiaohua, who entered the Ethereal Hall for the first time, was stunned. The decoration of the Ethereal Hall was almost the same as the meeting room of the Misty School. Even the position of the torches and candles were the same. At first glance, she thought she was back in the Misty Heights.
Seeing this, Zhang Xiaohua nodded inwardly. "Hall Master Yang really has deep feelings for Master Ou Peng. I admire him!"
Chen Chen was the envoy of His Excellency, so naturally, he was the chief. The disciples of Lingering Fragrance Peak and Zhang Xiaohua stood on both sides of Chen Chen. Yang Ruping and Aunt Qin sat on the lower left side, while Zhong Pei sat on the lower right side. After everyone had taken their seats, Chen Chen said, "Disciples of Misty Hall, His Excellency has known about your report on Lingering Fragrance Peak since the earliest time. But now the sect is not peaceful and there are more important things happening in other peaks, so it has been postponed again and again. This time, His Excellency has taken time out of his busy schedule to pay attention to our Shixin Peak and sent me as an envoy to investigate your report."
Then, he said to Yang Ruping, "Hall Master Yang, please escort Zhang Xiaohu, Changge, and Chen Chen to the front of the hall."
"Escort to the front of the hall?" Zhang Xiaohua was stunned again. She was slightly angry and thought, "Are they already considered prisoners?
Why use the word 'escort'? "
Yang Ruping bowed and said, "Changge and Chen Chen are female disciples and have not been tortured to extort a confession. It's okay to call them up, but Zhang Xiaohu …"
As she said, she looked at Zhong Pei.
Zhong Pei hurriedly got up and said with a smile, "Messenger Chen, I took over this matter from the beginning. I know it's of great importance and concerns the lives of thousands of disciples in the sect, so I dare not be careless. However, Zhang Xiaohu refused to say anything, so I had to use some punishment …"
When Zhang Xiaohua heard this, his mind buzzed again. He was furious in his heart. His eyes were round as he stared straight at Zhong Pei. "This ignorant man, he actually dared to torture Second Brother. He must be tired of living!"
Chen Chen waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter. Punishment is a necessary means. You just need to send Zhang Xiaohu to the front of the hall."
Hearing that Chen Chen did not mean to blame him, Zhong Pei was overjoyed. He waved to the law enforcement disciples behind him and said, "Go and bring Zhang Xiaohu here!"
The law enforcement disciples behind him hesitated for a moment and bowed to take the order.
Not long after, a stretcher carried Zhang Xiaohu, who was covered in blood and bruises and whose breathing was a little weak.
Zhang Xiaohua, who was standing in the crowd, stared at the stretcher as soon as it appeared. Her eyes were faintly filled with tears. When she saw her Second Brother's miserable condition, she almost exploded. However, when her Divine Sense swept over Zhang Xiaohu, she found that her Second Brother was still alive and not in danger. Only then did she force herself to restrain herself and see what Chen Chen was looking for.
At this time, Changge and the other Chen Chen were also brought to the front of the hall. As soon as Changge saw Zhang Xiaohu, he no longer cared about etiquette and rules. He rushed forward in a few steps and wanted to hug Zhang Xiaohu. However, he was covered with wounds and did not dare to do so for fear of hurting Zhang Xiaohu. He only held the bamboo pole of the stretcher tightly with his hands. His tears had already dripped onto Zhang Xiaohu's body.
Chen Chen also hesitated for a moment before following behind Changge. Her tears fell as she cried, "Senior Brother … Senior Brother, you can't die."
When Changge heard this, his heart ached as if he had returned to the wilderness surrounded by blood wolves. He clenched his teeth and fiercely glared at Zhong Pei. Then, he looked at the masked woman sitting in front of the hall. How could he not know that she was an inner disciple of Lingering Fragrance Peak?
He walked forward and knelt in front of the high and mighty Chen Chen. He said, "Senior Brother Zhang is innocent. Zhao Jian is the main culprit."
When the masked Chen Chen saw this, she said in a deep voice, "Stand up. Regardless of whether your Senior Brother Zhang is innocent or not, you have to remember that in the Lingering Fragrance Sect, female disciples are respected. You don't need to kneel to anyone except the sect leader!"
When Changge heard this, he hesitated for a moment before slowly standing up.
"Zhao Jian?" The masked Chen Chen asked, "Where is he?"
"This lowly one is here." Zhao Jian walked out from behind Zhong Pei and bowed towards the seat of honor.
"En." Chen Chen didn't comment.
Then, she stood up and walked to Zhang Xiaohu. She stretched out her hand and gently touched Zhang Xiaohu's pulse. After checking, she sighed and said, "His meridians are damaged, but his martial arts are not damaged. However, his internal injuries are very serious. Many of his bones are broken and there are many external injuries. His life is not in danger, but he will need a long time to recover."
After speaking, she took out a jade bottle and handed it to Changge. "This is Lingering Fragrance Peak's' Yuhuandan Pill '. Feed him one, I have something to ask him."
Changge accepted the bottle and fed the 'Yuhuandan Pill' into Zhang Xiaohu's mouth.
The masked Chen Chen looked at Zhong Pei's face and said, "Deputy Hall Master Zhong, you don't have to do this. The truth is not out yet. I just want to wake Zhang Xiaohu up and ask him the reason."
Then, she sat back in her chair and stretched out her right hand. She hooked her right index finger and said to Chen Chen, who had just stopped crying, "Are you Chen Chen?
Come up and talk. "
Chen Chen looked at Changge who was busy feeding Zhang Xiaohu the pill and timidly walked forward. He bowed and said, "Disciple Chen Chen greets Your Excellency."
"En, you don't have to be so polite, Chen Chen."
The masked Chen Chen nodded and said, "Tell me everything that happened in the Youlan Canyon!"
Then, he added, "Don't be afraid. It'll be fine as long as you tell me the truth, Chen Chen."
It was very easy to call him "Chen Chen".
Chen Chen looked back at Changge and started to talk about the disciples of the Misty Hall from entering the Youlan Canyon to encountering the blood wolves and the two inexplicable neighs of the horses.
"Chen Chen is lying. Your Excellency, Chen Chen must have colluded with Changge and Zhang Xiaohu!"
Zhao Jian couldn't bear it anymore and stepped forward to defend himself.
"Shut up. Who are you to call Chen Chen?" The masked Chen Chen was furious. "Didn't you see that Your Excellency is asking a question? What right do you have to speak?"
