After defeating the Hengshan Sect without any pressure, Lu Hanjiang returned to the main hall, ready to watch the show. In order to convince everyone, the Taishan Sect would interrogate Guan Shanmo in front of everyone.
In the eyes of others, this operation was Hao Bansheng's way of risking death and surviving. In order to pass the public trial, on the one hand, it was strange to let Guan Shanmo bite him to death, and on the other hand, he also took the initiative to fall into death in order to provoke
Arouse everyone's compassion.
Obviously Hao Bansheng has not given up completely. After all, Guan Shanmo is not only the leader of the young disciples of the Taishan sect, but also the hope of the next generation of the Taishan sect.
So even if it means losing face, Hao Bansheng must work hard until the last moment.
Everyone sat down in the main hall again. Lu Hanjiang stopped the Taishan disciple who was serving tea and told him: "It's too little. Bring me a whole pot."
"..." Disciple Taishan went down to prepare with a strange expression.
After everyone arrived, Guan Shanmo was also brought up. Although he was tied up like a prisoner, he was still neither humble nor arrogant. This actually made many doubtful knights and knights believe that there was something wrong with this matter.
Hao Bansheng had a serious face and nodded secretly in his heart. He was indeed his promising seedling.
By this time, everyone had arrived, and he asked: "Guan Shanmo, today's matter can be divided into two parts. Let me ask you first, why did you violate the master's order and break into the backyard without permission to take away the master's nephew?"
Guan Shanmo replied in a deep voice: "Reporting to the leader, this disciple believes that this matter is a conspiracy of Jin Yiwei. In order to make our Wuyue Sword Sect kill each other, he took the decision without authorization and let Junior Sister Shi go."
】
Although these words slapped Hao Bansheng in the face, they greatly gained the reputation of the Taishan Sect. For a moment, Hao Bansheng didn't know whether to be angry or happy.
"Ahem." Hao Bansheng coughed and said: "This matter is not as simple as you see. Although I am annoyed that you acted without permission, I think you are also out of kindness, so I will not pursue this matter anymore."
"Thank you, Master, for your tolerance." Guan Shanmo felt slightly relieved.
After some questions and answers, no one had any objections to the rescue of Shi Suxue, so Hao Bansheng asked again: "You are not guilty of Shi Suxue's incident, but you were ruthless in order to save a person, but you were so good at it."
How do you explain killing dozens of fellow juniors!"
"Please tell me, Master, that I have never killed anyone indiscriminately, let alone my fellow sect members. This is the traitor who deliberately framed me." Guan Shanmo argued.
Hao Bansheng nodded: "Since you said so, then bring someone to prove it."
Several Taishan disciples standing nearby came forward. They were the same ones who had seen "Guan Shan Mo" killing people before and were so frightened that they fled the scene.
"Tell me the truth, have you witnessed Guan Shanmo killing people with your own eyes? If you lie even a little bit, I will not take it lightly!" Hao Bansheng said to these people.
One of them shrank his neck and came out to answer: "Reporting to the leader, I will never dare to lie. I did see Senior Brother Guan. He wanted to break through the door, but all the senior brothers stopped him, so he, he killed him."
Hearing this, Guan Shanmo raised his head and said, "Master, may I allow this disciple to ask a few questions?"
Hao Bansheng pondered for a moment, and finally nodded in agreement: "Just ask."
"Thank you, Master," Guan Shanmo looked at those people and asked, "Several junior brothers said they saw 'me' killing someone, but I don't know what kind of weapon 'I' used when I killed someone?"
"That's right, the sword of Senior Brother Guan." The disciple replied timidly.
"Then you can see what sword technique 'I' used when killing people." Guan Shanmo asked again.
The disciple shook his head blankly. Hao Bansheng frowned and asked someone to carry the body up from the backyard. He inspected it himself, stroked his beard and said, "The killing sword is indeed owned by Guan Shanmo, but the killing swordsmanship is not
It’s not my Taishan swordsmanship.”
Guan Shanmo looked as if he was like this, and then hurriedly said: "Master, please check the injuries of the two gatekeepers. Although the martial arts of the disciples are higher than them, they cannot easily win without using their own martial arts."
them."
Hao Bansheng thought for a while and carefully inspected the corpses of the two gatekeepers. He couldn't help but wonder: "What a wonderful swordsmanship. Every move hits the vital point. It is indeed not my Taishan swordsmanship."
People from various sects also came forward to check. After seeing it, Master Yushu also nodded: "Taishan's sword technique is heavy and powerful, upright. This sword hurts fast and hard. This is really not the case."
Hao Bansheng felt a little happy in his heart, but said angrily on his face: "Okay! The thieves have come to my Mount Tai to do whatever they want!"
Everyone was thoughtful, Guan Shanmo hurriedly struck while the iron was hot, and said: "Please also ask the leader to examine the bodies of the brothers who died in the Beggar Clan, so that we can know that the disciple must have been wronged."
Hao Bansheng looked at Lu Hanjiang and saw that the latter had no objection. He immediately asked someone to bring the body of the Beggar Clan disciple for inspection. Sure enough, it was a stab wound, even different from the previous injuries of the Taishan Sect disciples.
"It seems that there is more than one thief plotting." Hao Bansheng judged.
"Master Hao, please wait."
Just when everything was going in the right direction, a person interrupted the harmonious atmosphere. It was Brother Xiang from the Beggar Clan. He said, "I saw people killing people in Guanshanmo with my own eyes. Besides, even if the injuries were wrong, there were still people."
It may be that Guan Shanmo practiced a variety of martial arts at the same time."
Hearing this, everyone felt that it was reasonable. Guan Shanmo glared at the Beggar Clan disciple angrily, and then said: "Master, please ask Junior Sister Shi to come forward and prove for the disciple that there was indeed another person who disguised himself as a disciple at that time.
Junior sister also saw it with her own eyes."
Hao Bansheng looked at Yu Fang: "Junior sister, please ask my nephew to come out and confront me."
Yu Fang's face was gloomy and uncertain. She saw Lu Hanjiang drinking tea leisurely from a distance, met her eyes and raised a glass to her from a distance.
That effortless look made people feel powerless. At this moment, the fire that had just risen in Yu Fang's heart was immediately extinguished. She sighed: "Since Senior Brother Hao has invited me, then, Suxue, please tell me about your own experience."
See the truth as you see it.”
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Shi Suxue stood up, her expression still a little dazed. Guan Shanmo felt that she had been frightened when he saw her, and couldn't help but worry. He comforted her gently: "Junior sister,
It's okay, you are safe, don't be afraid, tell everyone the truth."
Shi Suxue raised her head and glanced at Guan Shanmo. She was struggling, guilty, and self-deprecating. The complicated look in her eyes made the latter slightly absent-minded.
After a moment of silence, Shi Suxue finally gave in. When her master Shi Jiuning died, the shadow of the huge impact was still lingering in her heart.
So Yu Fang brought up her master to speak out and the Hengshan Sect's survival. She simply couldn't refuse. Even if she knew she was going to frame a good person, even her benefactor, she had to do it.
But the most ridiculous thing is that when things came to a close, Shi Suxue realized that she was not so unable to accept such an ugly self, and it was not impossible to say these things against her will.
"I... I ran away with Senior Brother Guan. The Taishan disciples who blocked me on the way were all killed by the Senior Brother. The Beggar Clan disciples were also killed by him. No... no one disguised himself as Senior Brother.
It looks like there are no thieves, no...it's all done by senior brother."
Shi Suxue finished her words intermittently, and in the end she just mechanically repeated the words "Senior Brother did it all." The whole hall fell into a dead silence because of her words.
Guan Shanmo froze on the spot, his heart was cold, and even the words to argue were stuck in his throat and could not be uttered. At that moment, he fell into a whirlpool of self-doubt. Even after he came back to his senses, he was unwilling to believe it.
Everything I heard.
In the silent hall, everyone held their breath, and the only sound in the air was the sound of Lu Hanjiang drinking tea. He rudely slurped the tea, and after slowly putting down the cup, he said: "It seems that the truth has been revealed.
In the world, Master Hao, I ask you to deal with it impartially."
