Chapter 94 Classmates

Zhang Yuelu understood what Qi Xuansu meant.

Mu Jin said: "I remember the name Wan Xiuwu. It seems that he was killed by someone from a secret society. We took over this case, but then the case of Zixian Mountain happened again, so we couldn't take care of it for the time being. I didn't expect it to be your classmate."

Qi Xuansu's face was not sad, only calm: "Yes, he died young."

Mu Jin couldn't help but said: "I have been handling cases recently, this case, that case, the movement is bigger than the sky, I don't know if I can solve one in the end."

Zhang Yuelu suddenly said: "Mu Jin, go and organize the case files of this case, I need it."

Mu Jin responded without thinking too much, just thinking that Zhang Yuelu wanted to pick up this case, and turned and left.

Zhang Yuelu certainly didn't want to continue investigating this case, but just sent Mu Jin away. Because Qi Xuansu had already revealed the whole story, Zhang Yuelu had already known the inside story. Although she knew that this was not in line with the law of Taoism, she still chose to support Qi Xuansu in the end.

Not only because of personal feelings, but also for reasons.

Many people think that evil is: blatant killing and arson, robbing women, robbing, and doing evil, but it is not the case.

Many evils are hidden in the inner and under the rules. Few people will do evil openly, but they do do evil.

Take Qi Xuansu's case for example. He attacked and killed Wan Xiuwu who was alone. From the perspective of Fengxiantang, Qi Xuansu was naturally wrong. Qi Xuansu should be arrested by Beichentang and then sentenced to justice.

But what was the cause of this incident? It was Wan Xiuwu and Yue Liuli who joined forces to put Qi Xuansu to death. Qi Xuansu also went to Wanxiang Taoist Palace to report it, but it ended up in vain. At that time, where was Fengxiantang? Where was Beichentang? Just because Qi Xuansu survived the disaster, can it be regarded as nothing happened?

Since Feng Xiantang didn't say anything at that time, why would he say anything when Qi Xuansu retaliated?

Wanxiang Dao Palace clearly knew about it, because Qi Xuansu was lucky enough not to die and no serious consequences were caused, so they chose to suppress the matter. First, it was because the impact was too bad, and second, it was because Wan and Yue were the best in that class, while Qi Xuansu was relatively ordinary. Even if Qi Xuansu died, Wanxiang Dao Palace would most likely choose to keep the two.

Why did Qi Xuansu have no way to appeal? Because he couldn't alarm the higher-ups, and secondly, Wanxiang Dao Palace also used means to classify it as an accident. If Qi Xuansu made trouble again, it would be a private fight, that is, one slap can't clap. The two sides had conflicts long ago, and both sides were wrong. Qi Xuansu, as the victim, was also wrong. Others would think that Qi Xuansu asked for it, and they would not sympathize with Qi Xuansu. With this reason, they could give an explanation to the outside world.

To put it bluntly, if Wan Xiuwu and Yue Liuli openly killed Qi Xuansu, then Wanxiang Dao Palace would definitely not bend the law for personal gain, and would definitely punish him according to the law. This is what many people think of as "evil".

But in fact, Wan Xiuwu and Yue Liuli only need to use a little trickery and take advantage of the Dragon and Tiger Society to turn it into an accident and get away with it.

As for whether it was an accident or not, Qi Xuansu knew, Wan Xiuwu knew, Yue Liuli knew, and the higher-ups knew it, but it was in line with the laws of Taoism.

Qi Xuansu couldn't swallow this breath. He wanted revenge, so what should he do?

Go to Fengxiantang to file a complaint?

Fengxiantang certainly wouldn't just ignore it like in the storybook, that would be too much to underestimate Fengxiantang.

Fengxiantang would certainly take care of it and file a case, but would ask Qi Xuansu a few questions, is there any evidence? Are there any witnesses? Aren't you alive and well?

At the same time, Fengxiantang would also go to Wanxiang Dao Palace to investigate, seemingly fair, and then tell Qi Xuansu that you were fighting privately, no one died, no spiritual officials were involved, it was reasonable and legal. If you make trouble again, or go to Jinque to appeal for injustice, then it is your fault. You will be arrested by Beichen Hall and have a criminal record. Do you still want to rise in the future?

This is like calling to heaven and earth for help but no one will respond.

What else can Qi Xuansu do? Naturally, he speaks with the sword in his hand.

At this time, is it not shameful to use the law to accuse Qi Xuansu of attacking and killing Wan Xiuwu?

Qi Xuansu was unwilling to discuss this matter with Zhang Yuelu, mainly because he did not want to embarrass Zhang Yuelu. In his opinion, with Zhang Yuelu's character, it was already against his will to conceal the fact that Wan Xiuwu was killed for him. How could he bear to make Zhang Yuelu embarrassed again.

However, Qi Xuansu underestimated Zhang Yuelu. Zhang Yuelu was not a mediocre person. She would not be torn between insisting on the law and protecting Qi Xuansu. Instead, she simply understood this truth, so she directly expressed her support for Qi Xuansu.

As for why Wuxu Palace was holding on to it, it was not because they valued the law of Taoism, but because they felt that the person who killed Wan Xiuwu broke the rules. What rules? There are many potential unwritten rules. That is, killing is allowed, but it must be done within the rules. Whether it is framing someone or killing someone with someone else's knife, as long as the killing is bloodless and not done personally, it is within the scope of the rules. But if you kill someone with a knife directly, the blood will splatter five steps when the man is angry, which breaks the rules and must be suppressed. This trend cannot be allowed to continue.

This kind of evil is more secretive, invisible and intangible, but it does exist. If you investigate, you will find nothing. It is more difficult to get rid of than those who do evil openly.

This is also one of the reasons why Zhang Yuelu is determined to change the Taoist sect.

Zhang Yuelu said slowly: "Wuxu Palace has never given up. They probably suspect you. In addition, Master Lei and Master Pei are now too busy to take care of other things. This class reunion may be a trap."

Qi Xuansu did not deny it, but just said: "But there must be an end."

Zhang Yuelu thought for a while and suggested: "After the Jinling Mansion incident, Master gave me a three-month vacation. I will go with you."

Qi Xuansu smiled and said: "Others will say that I am showing off."

Zhang Yuelu was not in the mood to joke and asked: "Where is it?"

Qi Xuansu opened the invitation in his hand: "Taiping Inn in Longmen Mansion."

…

Just when Qi Xuansu received the invitation, Yue Liuli and Pan Cuiqing had already arrived at Taiping Inn in Longmen Mansion. Because they had booked a single-family courtyard, they did not need to enter through the main gate, but could go through the side door.

After entering the side door, you can see pavilions, winding paths, and a clear pond with a small waterwheel and a winding bridge that can only accommodate one person. It is summer, and the grass and trees are lush and elegant.

In the Bingzi year, there were more than a hundred people who successfully became ninth-grade Taoist priests. Now there are only about eighty people left, and only about half of them can actually come to Longmen Mansion. Not all Taoists can take root in Yujing. Most of them go to local Taoist temples, or become wandering Taoists like Qi Xuansu. In addition, the death and injury rate of low-level Taoists has never been low, so it is reasonable that more than 20 people died accidentally after so many years. If it weren't for Qi Niang, Qi Xuansu would have been among the more than 20 people.

Among the remaining 80 people, some people didn't make it and didn't want to come; some people had jobs and couldn't make it back; others simply left the Taoist sect, or went out to sea to do business, or mixed in the rivers and lakes. It is said that some people changed their sects and went to the Confucian sect. This is another half.

Most of those who can make it to Longmen Mansion will arrive in advance and stay here for a while. After all, even if they can take a flying boat to save the trouble of running around, it will cost several hundred Taiping money, so it is naturally impossible to come and go on the same day.

In a pavilion, two people were chatting. When they saw Yue Liuli and Pan Cuiqing, they stood up and greeted them. When the two walked away, one of the seventh-grade Taoists said, "Yue Liuli has climbed up the ladder. It's a pity that Wan Xiuwu died only a few days ago."

Another sixth-grade Taoist said, "What's that? Do you remember Qi Xuansu?"

"Qi Xuansu?" The seventh-grade Taoist thought for a while, "I have some impression of him. The one whose master died?"

"That's him." The sixth-grade Taoist nodded and said, "Now he is rich. I don't know what kind of good luck he has. He was favored by Zhang Yuelu."

"Zhang Yuelu? Which Zhang Yuelu?"

"And which Zhang Yuelu, the youngest deputy hall master."

"Is it true?"

"Of course it's true. It is said that Zhang Yuelu took Lao Qi to Yunjin Mountain. Yue Liuli and the others saw it with their own eyes."

"Good guy, this is a peacock marrying down. It's a blessing that has been cultivated for several lifetimes."

"Who says it's not? Everyone knows that this deputy hall master Zhang has a good relationship with the earth master. With the relationship of this deputy hall master Zhang , Lao Qi has connected with Master Pei of Wanshou Chongyang Palace. I heard that he is now the chief Taoist priest of Ziwei Hall. What a dog's life. "

"This is also a skill. People like us have no family background and no background. If we want to achieve the right result, we will inevitably have to take a narrow path. Besides, even if we cling to such a big peacock, we don't know how much anger and cold eyes we will have to endure. It's not easy. "

"By the way, will he come?"

"He should come, right? If you don't return to your hometown when you are rich and powerful, it's like walking in the night in brocade clothes. Maybe we can still get some I just saw that Deputy Hall Master Zhang."

"But then again, do you still remember the Dragon and Tiger Meeting that year?"

"Of course I remember. Do you think Qi Xuansu hasn't let it go?"

"When I didn't have the ability, I naturally let it go. But now that I have the ability, maybe I will pick it up again."

"That makes sense. If they really fight, the young palace master may not be the opponent of the young hall master."

"Who wins or loses is none of our business. We just need to watch the show."

"That's right, that's right."
