Bai Fu was furious, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Regardless of He Xiao's obstruction, he rushed to Songhe Hall.
At this time, Taoist Priest Qingshi was discussing with several other elders of the Presbyterian Church.
Seeing Bai Fu breaking into the hall, several elders were quite surprised. Taoist priest Qingpu had the best temper. He stood up and asked: "Bai Fu, the elders are discussing something, why did you break in? If there is nothing important,
Get out quickly."
Bai Fu knelt down and saluted, crying: "Uncle Qingshi has framed me, please ask the uncles and uncles to make the decision for me!"
All the elders looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
Taoist Master Qingshi was angry, jumped up from the couch, and shouted: "What a bastard, he talks nonsense. You should tell me how I ruined your reputation!"
"Just say it, you dare to do it, why don't I dare to say it!" Bai Fu straightened his neck, stood up, and reported to the Presbyterian Council exactly what He Xiao said just now.
After listening, all the elders looked solemn. The law enforcement elder, Taoist Qingya, was the most upright and asked: "Bai Fu, what you are saying now involves slandering the teacher. If there is no evidence, you will be severely punished! Do you know?"
Bai Fudao: "Everything my disciple said is true, please ask He Xiao to confront him face to face."
Priest Qingya looked at Priest Qingshi. Priest Qingshi smiled instead of getting angry and said, "Qingya, do you believe this kid? How could I do such a ridiculous thing?"
Taoist Master Qingya hurriedly bowed his head and said: "Junior brother, I don't dare. But since there is a misunderstanding, why not ask He Xiao to come over and explain the whole matter clearly to avoid rumors in the future."
Taoist Master Qingshi said seriously: "That's exactly what I said."
While waiting for He Xiao, Taoist Master Qinggang took out a stack of account books from the inner room and said: "This is the distribution of the fields under Qingcheng Mountain. I didn't find out the 100 acres of paddy fields owned by senior Qingshi. However, Bai Fu has ten acres of paddy fields in his name.
, it was a gift from the Zheng family when Bai Fu went down to the mountain for a free clinic last year and cured the disease of member Zheng outside the town. Since it was given to Bai Fu by name by the Zheng family, it was not included in Qingcheng's account books." The elders began to discuss.
One after another.
Taoist Master Qingshi snorted coldly and said: "It's better to check it out, so that the master will not come back in the future and say that I framed his disciples." Upon hearing this, all the elders hurriedly tried to persuade him. Bai Fu stood upright in front of the hall and thought to himself: "Wait until He Xiao comes.
Come on, let’s see how you quibble!”
He Xiao came to Songhe Hall and saw all the elders there. His feet softened and he knelt down. Taoist Master Qingmiao frowned and said: "He Xiao, it is about the reputation of Senior Uncle Qingshi and your Senior Brother Bai Fu. The facts are
How about it, you have to tell the truth, if there is a lie, you will be severely punished!"
He Xiao hurriedly kowtowed and said: "Disciple, don't dare! Disciple must tell everything he knows and tell everything. On the first day of the final selection, I took the initiative to find Senior Brother Bai Fu. I told Senior Brother Bai that although I am currently ranked ninth
, but if I lose to him the next day and Yang Xiong defeats Chen Xuefeng, I will become eleventh and lose the top ten. But Senior Brother Bai is different. I have only lost one game so far and will definitely enter the top ten, even if I lose.
, will also qualify in third place, without losing anything.
Senior Brother Bai disagreed at first, but my disciple's family was extremely poor. My parents worked all day long to survive and suffered from hunger and cold. My grandmother was almost blind due to overwork. She was shortlisted for the top ten and could receive ten taels per month.
The subsidy of silver, to me, this subsidy is more important than life! Senior Brother Bai was grateful for my filial piety, so he agreed to help me fake the next day."
Taoist priest Qingya asked Bai Fu: "Is it true?"
Bai Fu couldn't refute and said: "It's true."
Taoist Master Qingya continued to ask: "Then how do you explain the rapid progress in martial arts recently? Even defeating many senior brothers with strong martial arts skills?"
He Xiaodao: "Uncle Master, on the night when the selection was announced, my disciple was upset and anxious, and couldn't sleep all night. I went to Yanwuping to practice swordsmanship in the early morning, and was seen by Master Qingshi who was on guard at night. After Master Qingshi listened to my explanation of my difficulties, he sighed with emotion for a long time, and finally made an exception.
I have a set of Liuyun footwork to help me quickly improve my actual combat skills."
Hearing this, Taoist Qingchi sighed: "It's true. I was accompanying Senior Brother Qingshi on night patrol that day. When I heard about He Xiao's family situation, I cried. It's not easy for children! The last three moves of Liuyun Footwork,
I was the one who taught him. I said at the time that although Liuyun Footwork is wonderful, it is miserable to practice. If you can practice it within a month, your martial arts will definitely improve. He Xiao, roll up your trouser legs and show everyone
Let's see."
He Xiao heard this and rolled up his trouser legs. The deep blood marks on his calves were the marks from the lead weights and bamboo sticks tied to his legs when practicing Liuyun Footwork. Many of the elders had practiced Liuyun Footwork.

Taoist priest Qingya turned to look at Taoist Qingzhu: "Junior brother, you are the chief examiner for this selection. Are there any differences in He Xiao's other competitions?"
Taoist Priest Qingzhu had already pulled out the test papers, and after reading them carefully with Taoist Priest Qinghan and the other examiners, he recalled: "He Xiao did defeat several brothers who were usually better in martial arts than him. The key to victory is that
He Xiao's movement is very fast. The Liuyun Footwork did play a key role. Junior Brother Qinghan and I had exchanged opinions before. Although He Xiao learned the Liuyun Footwork out of the norm, it did not conflict with the selection rules, so we finally judged He Xiaosheng as the winner.
.On the other hand, He Xiao’s victory against Bai Fu was an accident, and it was no different in other games.”
Taoist Master Qingya looked majestic and asked word for word: "He Xiao, I want to ask you seriously for the last time. Did Uncle Qingshi hint that he would help you advance in exchange for working on hundreds of acres of paddy fields? Please answer honestly! If
If you make false claims, you will abolish your martial arts and be kicked out of the mountain!"
He Xiao was trembling all over and replied tremblingly: "I really don't know where Senior Brother Bai came from. Senior Uncle Qingshi and I have never had any contact. He has never let me work in the paddy fields, and he has never helped me get promoted."
Qingya Taoist Priest looked directly at Bai Fu with his eyes like a torch: "Bai Fu, are you convinced?"
Bai Fu was so suppressed that his veins popped out, his eyes were spitting fire, and his fists were clenched. He glared at He Xiao and shouted: "He Xiao, why did you frame me?"
He Xiao said nothing, kowtowing to the elders like pounding garlic, tears falling down his cheeks.
Taoist Master Qingshi pretended to be generous and said with a smile: "Qingya, now that the matter has been clarified, there is no need for me to explain it anymore, right? Bai Fu is the disciple of the leader after all. Considering that he is young and ignorant, I will forget it."
Qingya Taoist Priest's brows trembled slightly when he heard this. Then, his face darkened, he slapped the table and shouted: "Bai Fu, you cheated in the selection, slandered the teacher, and disturbed the monastery. According to the sect's rules, I was punished with fifty sticks and expelled from Qingcheng for one year.
