Chapter 48: The culprit
The woman was stunned for a moment and said subconsciously: "It's gone."
"Gone?" Li Ping frowned, "Why is it missing?"
The woman's eyes were a little evasive, and she said happily: "The master has been in retreat these days. I...I discussed it with the Miao family and the Zhou family, and then he disappeared."
"Foolish!" Li Ping's face darkened and he shouted, "You actually let those two families silence such an important witness?!"
"But isn't the matter already clear?" the woman said puzzledly, "Furthermore, that little beast Pei Ling is certainly vicious in mind, but if the disciple hadn't been unkind and arranged for such a beast to go to Siguang and the others, why would he have done so?
Such a thing happened?"
Li Ping sneered and said: "What a woman's opinion! How can you believe what the Deacon Hall says? Yes, their investigation skills are indeed unparalleled. Since the establishment of the Holy Sect, unjust, false and wrong cases have rarely been seen! But, even if it is theirs
Can rhetoric prove that the culprit is Pei Ling?"
The woman was speechless: "Yes, but..."
"Pei Ling is only at the fourth level of Qi training, and he is not from a high background, so he must not have any background." Li Ping said coldly, "At such an age, it would be good if he could defeat any of the three children one on one.
, but where did he get the ability to fight one against three and kill three of Siguang?"
The woman said: "The Deacon Hall said that he has a powerful sword technique, as well as escape techniques..."
"Then it's over?" Li Ping said calmly, "He is Pei Hongnian's clan brother. Pei Hongnian has been in the clan for several years. Who doesn't know the details? Can Pei Hongnian know such powerful swordsmanship and escape skills? If so, how can he
I'm afraid the stupidity of being played around by Sun Yinglan will be exposed soon! Since Pei Hongnian doesn't know how to do it, let me ask you, why does Pei Ling know how to do it?"
"Maybe it's his own private chance?" The woman was a little unconvinced, "After all, it's not the time for the sect to recruit newcomers, but he can bring in the inner sect Master Zheng, which is obviously unique?"
Li Ping looked at her with an expression that looked like a fool: "Do you think Mr. Pei of Luquan City is a dead person? How can such sword skills and escape skills be achieved overnight? If Pei Ling got such an opportunity, he would have been in Luquan City since he was a child.
How can Pei not notice it when he grows up? After he notices it, how can he not tell Pei Hongnian, who is the eldest son?"
"...What do you mean, sir?" The woman opened her mouth and thought it made sense. Her voice suddenly dropped and she asked calmly.
Li Ping sneered: "The key doesn't lie with Pei Ling at all! It lies with Zheng Jingshan from the inner sect!"
He pointed in the direction of the Zhushi Hall, "After I heard about Si Guang's incident, I asked someone to ask. Pei Ling appeared in the Miscellaneous Committee Department on the morning when Si Guang and others were killed, asking for help everywhere.
The team... has been taken away by Chen Huan and others. Now I am afraid that his cultivation level, flesh and blood and soul have been refined into the soul summoning flag. If he is really the cruel person you said, how can he be so easily harmed by others? "
"This must have been done by Zheng Jingshan!"
"As for the reason, haha, most of us, Siguang, were influenced by the child from the Miao family."
"Miao Chengan's brother Miao Chengyang is the master of the thirteen inner sects with Zheng Jingshan, and they have an old grudge."
"Although Miao Chengyang doesn't take Zheng Jingshan seriously in terms of strength, Zheng Jingshan has an old relationship with Li Zhenzhuan after all... so Miao Chengyang doesn't dare to go too far."
"Not long ago, there was a conflict between these two lines. Zheng Jingshan suffered a big loss and almost asked Li Zhen to deal with the aftermath."
"Although he later gave up due to the mediation of several other pulse masters, Zheng Jingshan has always threatened to take revenge..."
Li Ping narrowed his eyes, "Otherwise, Pei Ling, who was not of high birth and weak in cultivation, would have gone crazy and killed Siguang and the three of them as soon as he entered the sect?!"
"I'm afraid that he joined the clan just to take revenge on Zheng Jingshan by killing Miao Chengan."
The woman was stunned for a moment, and she felt that something was wrong, so she couldn't help but remind her: "Master, you just said that if Pei Ling knew powerful swordsmanship and escape techniques, it would be impossible for the Pei family not to notice, and neither would Pei Hongnian.
Maybe he doesn’t want to learn! But Pei Hongnian doesn’t even know how to use swordsmanship at all…and Master Zheng seems to have just gone to Luquan City not long ago, so how could Pei Ling become so powerful in such a short time…”
"Why are you so stupid?" Li Ping sighed helplessly and interrupted, "Pei Hongnian has been under Zheng Jingshan's sect for more than a day or two. He has secretly passed on some skills to his brothers. Who knows? As for Pei Hongnian,
Why not with the Pei family? It's very simple. Zheng Jingshan just wants to find a chess piece. Why does he care about Pei Ling's life and death? Truly excellent skills are so precious! Even the Pei family's family background is worthy of his efforts.
To buy it with a big price?"
"While it must be extremely powerful and quick to achieve, it will be reckless and the price will be tragic."
"Then it's just a matter of giving up a descendant of the Pei family to work for Zheng Jingshan. How can they be willing to pay for the eldest son who they have high hopes for?"
"As for Pei Ling, his biological mother died young, and his stepmother became redundant in the Pei family after his stepmother came in. With such an origin, he is the most suitable person to be an abandoned son!"
He sneered again, "This is Zheng Jingshan's old trick. Don't forget that when he first entered the inner sect, he killed his father and practiced kung fu in order to seize the position of pulse master! Even his own father can be used as a stepping stone, let alone a mere child of the Pei family?
"
The woman gritted her teeth after hearing this, and stood up and said, "Master! Since we know what Zheng Jingshan has done, we must not let him go!"
"It's too late!" Li Ping said coldly, "The sect rules are ruthless, but the sect rules also rely on evidence. Now Pei Ling has almost become the ghost of the Soul Calling Banner, and he has no evidence to prove it. No matter how much he doubts Zheng Jingshan, he can't convince the deacon.
The church took action against him. He went to the house to investigate the crime, and he might have accidentally violated the rules and had to pay a fine!"
He breathed out slowly, hating that iron could not make steel, "So I asked you where the disciple who sent Pei Ling to Siguang and the others was. I originally thought that if we could get hold of Zheng Jingshan, he would be the one who bribed and colluded with that disciple.
There are clues. Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence? Pei Ling just came to the outer sect, and so many outer sect disciples with bad tempers were assigned to the residence where Miao Chengan lives?"
"This makes it clear that Zheng Jingshan bribed that disciple and did it deliberately to give Pei Ling an opportunity to kill him."
"But I didn't expect that you would be so impulsive and help Zheng Jingshan deal with the aftermath!"
The woman couldn't help but burst into tears and sobbed: "Master, that is your biological grandson! Even if you have other children, the one I gave you is just a little bit of flesh and blood, do you really not care?"
"Of course it's impossible to ignore it." Li Ping glanced at the concubine. After all, he had served her for many years. He couldn't bear it. He hesitated for a while and said, "But Zheng Jingshan is from the inner sect, and it's not convenient for me, the elder of the outer sect, to take action. This way
Well, you inform the Miao family and the Zhou family and ask Zhou Zhenchuan to contain Li Zhenchuan so that Miao Chengyang can deal with Zheng Jingshan. Without the protection of Li Zhenchuan, Zheng Jingshan will be vulnerable to Miao Chengyang!"
"Yes!" The woman wiped her face carelessly, and with a ferocious expression on her face, she turned around and walked out with a murderous look, saying sadly, "I'm going to avenge Siguang right now!!!"
