Chapter 18: Better Kill Me
Catch us?
I didn't react at all, and even Cao Da had a trace of surprise on his face. The few people around Wang Lung immediately surrounded us, and I subconsciously pulled out the Ghost Slayer Blood Shadow Knife on my back to resist, and when Wang Lung saw my movements, he immediately exclaimed very exaggeratedly: "What a bold man, even the people of the Law Enforcement Hall dare to fight?" ”
Law Enforcement Hall?
I was stunned for a moment, but Cao Da immediately stopped me and said in a deep voice: "Don't be impulsive. ”
I had no choice but to stop, and these people immediately took me and Cao Da into custody. I don't know who took advantage of the chaos to beat me a few times, and deliberately kicked me, which made me very uncomfortable. But the scene is very chaotic now, and I really can't see it clearly.
Wang Lung shouted very loudly and escorted away, because of the excitement, his voice even sounded a bit like a male duck's voice, which was particularly ugly.
I took a breath and followed the group of people in the Law Enforcement Hall. They escorted us to a building in the northeast of Zhengyipai, where there was a signboard with the words "Law Enforcement Hall" written on it.
When we entered the Law Enforcement Hall, it was a very empty hall. There were three people sitting in the middle, two men and one woman. At this time, the people from the Law Enforcement Hall pushed me in front of these three people and said in a deep voice, "Kneel! ”
I gritted my teeth and said, "Why kneel?" ”
"This is the elder of the Law Enforcement Hall...... Wang Long, who followed all the way, immediately said in a very exaggerated tone, "Jiang Cheng, you are really bold now, dare not kneel when you see the elders of the Law Enforcement Hall?" ”
I gritted my teeth and said, "I didn't do anything wrong, why do you kneel?" ”
The three Law Enforcement Hall elders looked at me and Cao Da very calmly, and at this time, a middle-aged man suddenly spoke: "You still dare to say that you are not guilty?" Your mission this time is to help the employer solve the paranormal event on the order. But after completing the order, you went so far as to call the police and arrest the employer. This is clearly to trap my Zhengyi faction in a ruthless and unrighteous place, if you are let go so easily, then how should the Zhengyi faction educate its disciples in the future? ”
"Ask the elders to learn ......"
Cao Da endured his anger and briefly explained the truth of the matter. After finishing speaking, Cao Da said seriously: "My Zhengyi faction is a famous and decent family, how can I tolerate this kind of killing of innocent people in front of my eyes?" I believe that what we are doing is exactly in line with the word righteousness upheld by the righteous faction! ”
"You are Cao Da, I originally thought that you were a disciple of the Heavenly Spirit Root, and you should be able to cultivate well, but I didn't expect to be able to speak so well, it was like running a train with a mouth......" The man sneered, "The reason why the Zhengyi faction survives is that forty-five percent of the income comes from order income. If you let the employers know what you have done and think that I am unreliable, then how can you have the face to take orders in the future? Employers spend money to do things for us, but in the end they are digging their own graves, which is an act that the righteous faction will never allow! Today, I'm going to punish you well. ”
"I want to see who dares to punish Cao Da!"
At this moment, an angry shout suddenly sounded outside the door of the law enforcement hall. We turned our heads to look, but saw that it was Haiyun Dao Chief. With an angry look on his face, he hurried into the law enforcement hall. When these three people saw Daoist Haiyun, they all saluted one after another: "Senior uncle." ”
"Cao Da is wrong...... Haiyun Dao Chang snorted coldly, "Justice and righteousness, justice first and then righteousness." I also heard about this incident, it is clear that the employer killed people and killed people, and what Cao Da did was completely in line with the image of the righteous faction. If you have to punish even such a disciple, then what is the difference between my righteous sect and the evil sect!? ”
The three of them all looked at each other and were speechless for a while. At this time, Wang Long, who was standing aside to watch the show, thought about it, and suddenly said: "Master, although this Cao Da is above board, there is one thing that cannot be forgotten. His behavior this time did not report righteousness, but took action on his own. There is a rule that when there is an abnormality in the order, it must be reported to the organization as soon as possible. I admit that what Cao Da did this time was right, and I also admire him. But Master, you can't ignore the rules of our Zhengyi faction just because you're from the Zhengyi faction headquarters! ”
"You!"
Haiyun Dao Chang's eyes widened angrily, and he pointed at Wang Lung, but he couldn't find a reason to refute it. At this time, Wang Lung bowed to the three elders of the Law Enforcement Hall and said solemnly: "The disciple is courageous, thinking that no matter who he is, as long as he makes a mistake, he should accept the punishment of the righteous faction. This Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people, and the same is true of the righteous faction, what do the three elders think? What does the ancestor think? ”
Haiyun gritted his teeth and said, "Cao Da has just joined the Zhengyi faction, how can he have time to learn so many rules?" ”
"Those who don't know are not guilty, this argument is outdated......," Wang Lung said sharply, "Then if an illiterate person who has not read a book kills several people, saying that he does not know the law of murder, can he not be sentenced?" ”
Seeing that the three Law Enforcement Hall elders nodded one after another, the woman sighed and said, "Senior Uncle, I understand that you want to protect Cao Da's thoughts. But now Cao Da has indeed made a mistake, and he should still be punished. ”
These people obviously colluded, and as soon as they opened their mouths, they directly blamed Haiyun for deliberately protecting Cao Da. Now Haiyun's face is flushed with anger, but people have four mouths, and the white ones can be said to be black.
"I'm willing to be punished."
At this moment, Cao Da suddenly spoke. We all looked at Cao Da in surprise, he puffed out his chest without fear, and said in a deep voice: "It is indeed my fault that I did not inform the organization in advance. But I don't think I've done anything wrong, Taoist priests should follow their hearts, not to be worthy of heaven and earth, but to be worthy of themselves! ”
I gritted my teeth and said in a deep voice, "I am also willing to be punished." ”
"Very good...... the man from before nodded and said with satisfaction, "Cao Da did not follow the rules of the righteous faction and should be punished heavily." But the mind is for the first offense, and the attitude of confessing sins is good, and it is for the purpose of doing good deeds. Therefore, after deducting Cao Da's resources for two weeks, I hope you will correct it! ”
Haiyun's eyes widened and he exclaimed, "Two weeks of resources? Cao Da has just entered the Zhengyi faction, and it is time to make rapid progress! Every month the disciples have an assessment, and the next month's assessment is the twelfth, and now it is the twenty-fifth, just waiting for the resources of these two months for him to learn the Dao art well. Now that you have stopped two resources, don't you deliberately want to expel him from the inner door? ”
The elder smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle Shi, we are also acting in accordance with the rules and regulations, please don't blame again." ”
Haiyun snorted coldly in anger, shook his hand and walked out of the law enforcement hall. After he walked out, these people's confidence suddenly increased a lot. The man pointed his finger at my nose, slapped the table, and said angrily, "Jiang Cheng, as a guard, your first priority is to familiarize yourself with the rules of the Zhengyi faction. But you know the law and break the law, and your sin is added to the first! If you don't have the resources, I won't take your resources, but I'll punish you with fifty lashes!" One hundred lashes for one more degree of sin! ”
"A hundred!?"
Cao Da hurriedly said, "Elder, Jiang Cheng also just joined and didn't understand anything, and this time the matter was mainly led by me......
"Cao Da is really powerful, he feels that his status is extremely high when he has a Heavenly Spirit Root......," Wang Lung said sneeringly, "Elders make decisions, and you are qualified to make irresponsible remarks?" ”
Cao Da gritted his teeth and glared at Wang Lung viciously. And I took a deep breath and whispered, "I plead guilty." ”
Suddenly, Wang Lung's face was full of pride. At this time, I turned around, looked at Wang Lung coldly, and said, "The humiliation I suffered today, he wants you to come back ten million times more every day." ”
"Dead garbage, a trainee disciple of the escort team, dare to threaten me......" Wang Lung sneered, "Lao Tzu is waiting for you." ”
I gritted my teeth and turned and walked towards the outside of the Law Enforcement Hall. At this time, someone quickly brought a stool and put it in the doorway, and let me lie on it.
At this time, a person from the Law Enforcement Hall brought a whip, then grabbed his arm, and said uncomfortably: "Elder, my shoulders have been uncomfortable for the past two days. I'm afraid I can't beat this hundred lashes. ”
"It's really incompetent...... the male elder snorted coldly, "who wants to do it for you?" ”
Wang Lung seemed to have been waiting for this time, and he suddenly bowed and said, "Elder, the disciple is willing to serve." ”
"Okay, I'll let you come."
Wang Lung smiled, he walked up to the man and took the whip, and said to me in a sneering voice, "Jiang Cheng, take off your clothes." I'm going to be ugly ahead, every blow of this whip can make you break your flesh, and I let you take off your clothes for your sake. Look at you, you are poor, you can't seem to afford a few clothes, right? If you break your clothes, I'm afraid you poor devil won't be able to bear the blow. ”
Holding back the anger in my heart, I took off my clothes and lay on the bench. And at this time, Wang Lung immediately raised his hand and whipped the whip hard!
The whip crackled in the air, and the moment it was whipped against me, my whole body twitched hard in pain. The pain was as if the flesh and blood had been taken away, and the wound immediately came with a burning pain.
I clutched at the foot of the bench, biting my lip, refusing to let myself scream.
If you call it, you are admitting defeat.
Wang Lung was angry that he didn't have fun bullying me last time, and wanted to see me submit. The more he wanted me to give in, the more unwilling I was to give in.
At this time, Wang Lung seemed to be energetic, and he twitched several times in a row, so painful that my muscles were exposed, and the muscles all over my body were trembling.
Cao Da was anxious and roared at Wang Lung: "Wang Lung, are you trying to beat Jiang Cheng to death!?" ”
"This is really strange...... Wang Lung said in a strange manner, "I just implement the family law of the righteous sect, is this also wrong?" ”
The male elder seemed a little impatient, waved his hand and said, "Cao Da, you immediately retreat." The Law Enforcement Hall is executing the sentence, which round are you watching here? If you don't leave, you are deliberately provoking the Law Enforcement Hall, and it won't hurt if I hit Jiang Cheng two hundred times at that time! ”
Cao Da took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and walked quickly to my side. He hugged my head and said in a deep voice, "Jiang Cheng, let's go, don't stay in this Laoshizi faction." ”
"Don't do stupid things...... I gasped in pain and gritted my teeth, "You're an inner disciple, even if you want to leave, you have to learn your skills before leaving." And I still have yin qi in my body, if this is for me to leave, how can I live? ”
Cao Da said anxiously: "But you ......"
I squeezed out a bleak smile and interrupted Cao Da's words: "Senior brother, it's okay to listen to me, you go first." ”
He clenched his fists and stared at everyone present, as if to take their faces to heart.
"Today's shame, I will remember it in my heart......," Cao Da gritted his teeth and said, "In the future, I will definitely pay it back a hundred times, so that you will not want to live!" ”
When the female elder heard this, she became angry, and shouted at Cao Da: "What a big boldness, dare to intimidate the elders of the Law Enforcement Hall!?" ”
"Give you face, you are elders......" Cao Da said coldly, "I don't give you face, you are just a bunch of clowns who jump off the beam!" ”
With that, Cao Dayi shook his hand and walked coldly in the direction of the dormitory. The people present were very angry, and the female elder seemed to want to vent her anger on me, pointing at me and shouting angrily: "Fight! Hit hard! ”
"Great!"
Wang Lung immediately swung his whip excitedly and whipped me the back. At this time, I could clearly see that the blood had fallen on the floor next to me, and it looked bright, but it was so hideous.
Wang Lung slapped me and asked triumphantly, "Jiang Cheng, how do you feel......?"
I clenched the bench and roared fiercely, "You'd better kill me today, if you can't kill me, I'll let you die!" ”
