Circles of torches had already surrounded Su Chen and the four of them.
The three people beside him were already trembling and even dizzy.
When they came here, they naturally guessed that something bad would happen.
But he never expected that he would be caught in an instant.
When everyone first arrived in Inner Mountain, it seemed that they received some pretty good treatment in Sanshan.
But the real status, placed here in Yuexi Mountain, is still at the bottom.
"It's okay, it should be okay
We are valued by the deputy peak master, and we are helping him.”
One of the disciples started chanting.
These words are actually trying to scare yourself.
Their hearts were already extremely panicked, and all they could do was to comfort themselves as much as possible.
The four of them were surrounded. A group of guards from Yue Xishan held torches in their hands. The originally dark environment was illuminated brightly.
In the distance, four people were walking towards this side at a leisurely pace.
When the four people approached, the guards who had formed a circle immediately made way for a gap.
Su Chen didn't know these four people, but they seemed to be high-ranking people in Yuexi Mountain.
The four of them had some indifference on their faces, and they just glanced at Su Chen and the others.
In their opinion, there must be instructions from others behind them for what happened tonight.
The four of them, Su Chen, were just a few insignificant disciples.
"What do you think?"
The old man standing in the middle hesitated for a long time, and after sighing, he finally asked.
The middle-aged man beside him answered immediately.
"Peak Master, what happened today should be very clear.
Don't blame me for speaking bluntly, it must be Deputy Peak Master Wang who sent someone to steal the Yuexi Yintai.
He knows very well that Peak Master, you are planning to choose me to take over.
I have been fighting with him for so many years, how could he be willing to let me take over?
Stealing the Yuexi Seal can delay these things from happening.
I, Meng Wang, have talked with him several times, and I have spoken very sincerely, which is considered a promise to him.
But Deputy Peak Master Wang is still so entangled and uses these insidious methods behind his back.
Peak Master, I have done everything I can do.
This time, I don't want to tolerate it anymore.
What should be said, let’s say it clearly this time. ”
This man called himself Meng Wang, and he had just called the middle-aged old man the peak master.
Su Chen looked at the three people around him. Their faces were pale at the moment, without any color at all.
They know Yue Xishan better than Su Chen.
One of the two people speaking at this moment is the peak master of Yuexi Mountain, who is also the sect leader.
The other Meng Wang is the deputy peak master of Ershan.
Being left behind today, a few of them were frightened, even fearful.
At this moment, I just think about Wang Tianming, the deputy sect leader, coming to the rescue.
But in front of me, the status of these two people is not lower than Wang Tianming.
Looking forward to Wang Tianming has no meaning anymore.
The master of Yuexi Mountain Peak did not answer Meng Wang, but looked at Su Chen and others.
"Who are you disciples from?"
Hearing his slightly old voice, Su Chen looked at the three people around him, and they were vying for answers.
He told everything about his hometown, Mianyue Mountain.
Finally hearing that it was from Wang Tianming's side in Sanshan, the peak master sighed again.
"Peak Master, is the evidence now conclusive?
He placed some details around me and found out the location of Yuexi Yintai in advance.
Recently, new disciples have joined the inner mountain, making it easier to hide among them. ”
Meng Wang's words have already made these conclusions.
Hearing this, the master of Yuexi Mountain looked at the other two people.
"Two elders, what do you think of this matter?"
The two elders who came with him frowned and thought for a while.
"It's better to call Deputy Peak Wang here and explain everything clearly in person.
People from Yue Xishan should not hide certain things. ”
Hearing this, the peak master of Yuexi Mountain also nodded.
Several people sat down directly in the yard, waiting for Wang Tianming's arrival.
In fact, they had already sent someone to notify Wang Tianming when they were on the way.
From Sanshan, ordinary disciples can arrive in just over half an hour.
A strong man like Wang Tianming would naturally come over faster.
Su Chen and the other four were directly ignored.
That Meng Wang, the peak master of Yuexi Mountain didn't ask any more questions.
Just waiting, waiting for Wang Tianming to arrive.
It was almost midnight, and after seeing a crowd of people, the master of Yuexi Mountain stood up and moved forward.
He knew that the deputy peak leader Wang Tianming had arrived.
Yuexi Yintai, this is the symbol of the master of Yuexi Mountain.
Every government decree and every document needs to be stamped with this stamp pad.
For the huge Yuexi Mountain, this ink pad is certainly not a core element.
Able to control the entire situation and command the entire Yuexi Mountain.
The Peak Master's own strength and reputation are of course the most important.
But now the two deputy peak masters, Meng Wang and Wang Tianming, are competing for the position of the next peak master.
Although Meng Wang has an advantage, it is just an advantage, not a crushing advantage.
The Yuexi Yintai was stolen, which would have an impact on Meng Wang.
At least it will delay Meng Wang's takeover.
Since Deputy Peak Master Meng Wang seized the opportunity today, he naturally wanted to take this opportunity to completely suppress Wang Tianming and seal the coffin.
For a moment, the guards holding torches made way for them.
Deputy Peak Master Wang Tianming walked over quickly with a hint of solemnity on his face.
"Peak Master, Deputy Peak Master Meng, Elder Wu, Elder Xie."
Wang Tianming saluted, still with the dignity of a superior.
"Tianming, you already know the reason why I invited you here, right?
I have heard a lot of bad news about you, but the listener should not believe it all.
Hope you can give a reasonable answer. ”
The master of Yuexi Peak sounded a little regretful.
He didn't want to see his subordinates fighting like this.
You fight against me, that's no problem.
But the dispute between Meng Wang and Wang Tianming clearly went too far.
Hearing this, Wang Tianming nodded calmly.
"Peak Master, I can clearly explain the specific situation tonight.
Because in the afternoon, I had already discovered some clues and been dealing with them.
The four young people in front of me are indeed my new disciples from Sanshan.
I, Wang Tianming, do not deny this.
But what happened tonight was not what I, Wang Tianming, ordered them to do.
The one who really instructs them is not me. ”
Wang Tianming looked serious, and his words were loud and clear.
He didn't acknowledge Meng Wang's accusation at all.
If the evidence is conclusive, Wang Tianming directly throws the dirty water back.
He didn't even know the person he sent.
This answer should not be considered an explanation, but a counterattack.
The meaning behind Wang Tianming's words was to point the finger directly at Meng Wang.
When the master of Yuexi Mountain Peak heard the words, he naturally understood them.
Meng Wang beside him even snorted.
"What Deputy Peak Master Tianming said is interesting, they are your disciples from Sanshan.
If they don't listen to your arrangements, could it be that they listen to my arrangements, Meng Wang's?
You know, before they came to Sanshan.
He practiced in Mianyue Mountain.
Wu Changsheng of Mianyue Mountain seems to have some friendship with Deputy Peak Master Tianming, right? "Hearing Meng Wang's words, Wang Tianming bowed his hands to the master of the Yuexi Mountain Peak and continued.
"Actually, we all know the outcome of this matter very well.
If I, Wang Tianming, wanted to steal this thing, I would not arrange for these weak young people to do it.
There is no one available under my command.
Of course, no one would believe this untenable reason.
I have more direct evidence here.
Bring people up. ”
Wang Tianming ordered his followers, and then a group of people quickly went down the mountain.
Seeing Wang Tianming react like this, Deputy Peak Master Meng Wang felt slightly uneasy.
Tonight's situation seemed like he was directly involved.
Everything was in Wang Tianming's calculations, and his answers and responses were too smooth.
Su Chen stood aside and watched the show. At this moment, things gradually became clear.
Next, Wang Tianming should invite a more key person.
Not surprisingly, it should be the mountain owner of Mianyue Mountain, Wu Changsheng.
Not long after, Wang Tianming's entourage brought someone over.
This person should be at the foot of the mountain, otherwise he wouldn't have arrived so quickly.
When he saw this person, Meng Wang also frowned.
The person in front of me is none other than the mountain owner of Mianyue Mountain, Wu Changsheng.
But at this moment, Wu Changsheng looked a little weak and seemed to have been seriously injured.
These injuries he suffered were obviously from his fight with Su Chen.
But now, when everyone sees this, they will subconsciously think that it was Wang Tianming who did it.
If Wang Tianming and Wu Changsheng had some friendship, they probably wouldn't have acted so harshly.
“Master Wushan, Peak Master is here, let’s just say what the facts are.
If you continue to lie, no one can save you. ”
Wu Changsheng had a bit of guilt on his face, and before speaking, he glanced at Meng Wang one more time.
“I have been planning these things for more than two months.
Everyone inside Yuexi Mountain now knows that Deputy Peak Master Meng will take over as the Peak Master.
I thought that if I could make friends with Deputy Peak Master Meng, I would be able to live a better life in the future.
So I agreed to this plan”
Wu Changsheng's words really muddied the waters.
Meng Wang, who was already confident of winning, began to panic a little.
"Wu Changsheng, when did I ask you to plan this?
You have a close relationship with Wang Tianming, and what you did today is obviously to help him slander me! ”
Hearing this, Wu Changsheng did smile bitterly.
"I also hope that Deputy Peak Master Wang can remember his old relationship, but I am injured.
People who are good friends with me should not be so harsh"
Upon hearing this, Elder Xie stepped forward to investigate.
After this investigation, it was really found that Wu Changsheng's injuries were serious, and they were all new injuries.
Elder Xie frowned and nodded to the master of Yuexi Mountain, confirming that the injury really existed.
"It seems to have damaged the foundation."
Finally, Elder Xie added something.
This result makes the words of Wu Changsheng and Wang Tianming more credible.
Under such circumstances, the master of Yuexi Mountain couldn't help but look at Meng Wang with a frown.
Seeing this, Meng Wang became even less calm.
"Peak Master, I did not plan these things, this matter was calculated against me.
I don't even know these four people.
Severe punishment, directly punishing the four of them.
The four of them must know what the truth is, and everything will be revealed through torture! ”
After Meng Wang finished speaking, Wang Tianming not only did not object, but also nodded in agreement.
"Peak Master, I also think that torture can be used.
These young people can't bear it and should tell the truth.
Even if they can endure it, what they did today should be severely punished. ”
At this moment, Su Chen and the other four have become completely abandoned.
The two sides actually had the same opinion on punishment.
Wu Changsheng in the crowd looked at Su Chen with a faint smile on his lips.
He was proud and showing off his skills.
Here with Su Chen, he was humiliated and even injured.
But it wasn't long before he came back with all his revenge.
In front of everyone, Wang Tianming bowed his hands in front of the master of Yuexi Mountain Peak. He still had something to say.
"Peak Master, I have no other extravagant hopes in my heart for the next Peak Master to inherit the position.
I also explained everything clearly in front of Deputy Peak Master Meng.
However, Deputy Peak Master Meng responded to my explanations at that time.
He also said that in the future, he would unite with me sincerely to govern Yuexi Mountain together.
In fact, they want to kill them all without leaving any way for me to escape.”
The two deputy peak masters of Yuexi Mountain were fighting among themselves. After hearing these words, the fight was a little fierce.
Su Chen looked at the three people around him with a look of despair on their faces.
As an ordinary disciple of Yuexi Mountain who had just entered Inner Mountain, he got involved in this dispute.
No matter what the truth is, it will not end well.
There is a high probability that it will be difficult to survive.
It is normal for the three of them to have this look of despair on their faces.
After the deputy peak leader Wang Tianming said this, Meng Wang denied and argued again.
The whole story, the truth, is now all messed up.
Both sides find reasons and evidence.
They are all talking about each other's problems, and they generally make sense.
But after Wang Tianming carried Wu Changsheng out, his words became slightly more credible.
The eyes of the two elders beside him were a little more suspicious of Meng Wang.
If you are so cruel to Wang Tianming, will the elders like them also be in trouble in the future?
The high-level battles in Yue Xishan have always been restrained.
But today, this move seemed a bit ruthless and had no bottom line.
After the quarrel, there was a period of silence.
There was only the crackling sound of torches around, and the guards around seemed to know that the matter was serious, even suppressing their gasps.
Under the current circumstances, we can only look at the master of Yuexi Mountain and see how he makes a choice.
After a while, the sound of a night watch could be heard in the distance.
It's already midnight. If we delay it any longer, it may be dawn.
"It's too late today, let's go back first.
After Tian Liang invites the other elders together, we can discuss further. ”
The master of Yuexi Mountain Peak has said so, and naturally no one else is qualified to be stubborn anymore.
No matter what, he is still the peak master.
"Peak Master, what should we do with these four people?"
Deputy Peak Master Meng Wang looked at Su Chen and the others with some hatred on his face.
He was already sure that he had been framed and was still holding back his anger.
Of course he won't look good.
After hearing this, the master of Yuexi Mountain turned his head and looked at Wang Tianming.
While hesitating, he seemed to have thought of something.
"Tianming, do you have any objection to their harsh punishment?"
When asked, Wang Tianming didn't hesitate at all and immediately shook his head.
"It all depends on the arrangements of the peak master. I, Wang Tianming, have a clear conscience."
Hearing this, the master of Yuexi Peak turned around and took a few steps back.
"Since you both agree to torture, let's interrogate it directly here.
The peak leader also wants to hear how they will answer. ”
After saying that, the master of Yuexi Mountain walked towards a guard. (End of chapter)
