Indeed!
Hearing this, the people who were originally skeptical suddenly understood.
Yes, according to common sense, the effort and benefits of this matter are completely disproportionate.
The monthly allowance of menial disciples is only two spirit stones, and three thousand spirit stones are equivalent to a full 150 years of allowance.
It is unlikely that someone with such a huge amount of spirit stones would embezzle for just four or five spirit stones.
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that someone is a mentally twisted pervert who likes to steal and pursue the forbidden excitement.
But this Qi Da had just passed the entrance character test not long ago and was rated as [Perfect Character]. He didn’t look like a pervert at all…
Seeing that Qi Yuan had basically cleared his suspicion, Lin Zhen, who was tied to the ground, was overjoyed and said quickly:
“I’ve said before that Brother Qi and I were framed. We never stole any green leaf grass. Let me go quickly.”
As he said that, he struggled to get up.
“Be honest!”
The law enforcement pavilion disciple standing by immediately pushed him down.
The leading girl named Nie glanced at him and said in a cold voice:
“No matter what, the Green Leaf Grass was searched out of your room. Even if Junior Brother Qi didn’t do it, you are still responsible.”
“As a menial disciple, there is no way for you to enter the medicine garden and steal the elixirs. I advise you to tell us who your accomplices are as soon as possible.”
“Otherwise, we will send you to the Law Enforcement Pavilion right now. There are plenty of ways to make you talk over there.”
Lin Zhen laughed when he heard this and said sarcastically:
“I think your Law Enforcement Pavilion is nothing special. You can’t even see through such a simple frame-up.”
“How outrageous!”
The girl surnamed Nie was so angry that her eyebrows were raised. She raised her hand to slap Lin Zhen, but before she could touch the other person’s face, a big hand grabbed her wrist and she couldn’t hit him anymore.
She turned her head and saw that it was Qi Yuan who grabbed her wrist. A hint of anger instantly appeared on her pretty face:
“Qi Da, what are you doing?”
While speaking, she subconsciously wanted to break free, but found that the hand on her wrist was tightly grasped like an iron clamp, and no matter how hard she struggled, she couldn’t move at all.
Seeing this, the other disciples of the Law Enforcement Pavilion were all furious and surrounded her.
“How dare you attack my senior sister!”
“Quickly release senior sister Cuilan!”
Qi Yuan glanced at Lin Zhen, and then said to the girl surnamed Nie indifferently:
“Whether my friend stole the green leaf grass or not, it is not up to you and me to decide. It is better to let the facts speak for themselves and get to the bottom of this case.”
At this point, he smiled slightly, casually released the girl’s wrist, and continued, “Green leaf grass is an important material for refining Qi Gathering Pills, and the amount used is huge. My job in the medicine garden is to take care of a green leaf grass field.”
“If there is a mastermind behind the scenes who wants to frame someone, then this bundle of green leaf grass must have been picked from that spiritual field.”
“I am on duty at Chenshi every day and go back to my residence to rest at Youshi. That is to say, I am not in the spiritual field for six hours out of the twelve hours a day. Therefore, the people who picked these green leaves must have taken advantage of my absence.”
Nie Cuilan was embarrassed and annoyed, and glared at Qi Yuan fiercely:
“What’s the point of you saying all this? You weren’t at the scene, how could you possibly know who did it?”
At this moment, Nie Cuilan was secretly surprised. She had perfected her Qi Refining skills, but she had no resistance in the hands of this man just now!
She suffered such a big loss in front of everyone. If it were any other time, she would have taught the other party a lesson long ago. But for some reason, facing this errand disciple in front of her, she didn’t even have the courage to turn her face.
“Haha, who told you that you can’t accuse the criminal if you’re not at the scene?” Qi Yuan raised the corner of his mouth slightly, “I have a strong sense of responsibility, and I always love what I do. Since the sect has appointed me to take care of the spiritual field, I must naturally do my job conscientiously.”
“In order to monitor the growth of the green leaf grass and prevent problems with the spiritual field, I will put a low-grade photo talisman on the big tree beside the field after I get off work every day.”
“In this way, even if I’m not in the spiritual field, I can still pay attention to the growth of the green leaf grass at night through the photo talisman. If someone sneaks in to pick the green leaf grass, they will definitely be photographed by the photo talisman…”
As he said, he smiled and took out a talisman that flashed a faint white light from his arms:
“This is the record of last night’s video. I was called here by you right after I got off duty, so I haven’t had time to look at it yet.”
After the words fell, everyone looked strange, staring blankly at the video talisman in Qi Yuan’s hand.
Fuck!
The video talisman can actually be used like this?
As the name suggests, the video talisman can record and save images of a distance and a period of time. Although there is no sound, there are clear and vivid pictures, which are widely circulated in the world of immortal cultivation.
In addition to being used to transmit messages and make friends, the video talisman has also been developed with many additional functions.
For example, they would record a certain discussion of Taoism and fighting for people to study and ponder. Some people even used the image-keeping talisman to take some private pictures with exciting contents, and then sold them at high prices after making many copies. They once robbed the book business of the Hehuan Sect…..
But no one had ever been so bored as to use the image-keeping talisman to take pictures of a field continuously, and even called it paying attention to the growth of the green leaf grass at night.
Even if a low-grade image-keeping talisman was very cheap in the world of cultivating immortals, it would still cost at least three spirit stones. If this continued, it would cost ninety spirit stones a month.
And the monthly income of the menial disciple was two spirit stones, which meant that this guy worked hard in the medicine garden for a month and lost eighty-eight spirit stones…
When everyone thought about the huge reward of three thousand spirit stones that Qi Yuan had just received, they suddenly felt that this matter was not unacceptable.
After a strange silence, Mo Zhengyang, the elder of the outer sect, was the first to react. He waved to Qi Yuan and said in a deep voice:
“In that case, bring it to me.”
“Yes.”
Qi Yuan responded and respectfully handed over the photo talisman in his hand.
Just when Mo Zhengyang got the photo talisman, a errand disciple in the crowd suddenly turned pale and trembled violently.
“Junior Brother Wentao, what are you doing?”
The disciple next to him noticed that he looked different and hurried forward to support him.
However, the disciple seemed to turn a deaf ear and muttered to himself:
“Oh no, how could this happen…”
“So it was you who did it!”
Qi Yuan suddenly strode over here, stretched out his hand to grab the man from the crowd, and threw him in front of Mo Zhengyang:
“Elder Mo, there is no need to check the image talisman. He picked these green leaves.”/p>At this moment, the errand disciple’s mentality completely collapsed, and he knelt on the ground trembling:
“Elder Mo, please spare my life! It really has nothing to do with me. It was Wang Luchuan who saw that I was on duty in the medicine garden, so he gave me ten spirit stones and asked me to steal the green leaf grass in the medicine garden. I was also bewitched…”
Hearing this, everyone was in an uproar, and those around Wang Luchuan couldn’t help but distance themselves from him.
Wang Luchuan’s face turned livid, and he stared at the errand disciple fiercely:
“Wen, don’t make accusations. I haven’t even seen you. You said I ordered you to do it. Do you have any evidence?”
Wen Tao said with a sad face:
“Wang Luchuan, you have to admit it. It was you who sent someone to give me ten spirit stones…”
“Enough!”
Mo Zhengyang shouted angrily and looked around coldly:
“A bunch of bastards, don’t you think you’ve lost enough shame?”
Everyone was silent, and all shut their mouths.
After pondering for a moment, Mo Zhengyang looked at Nie Cuilan in the field and ordered:
“Nephew Nie, take Wentao to the Law Enforcement Pavilion for careful interrogation. Make sure to find out the truth and severely punish those who violate the sect rules.”
Then, he turned his gaze to Lin Zhen who was tied up and said:
“As for Lin Zhen, in view of the fact that the facts are unclear and the evidence is not conclusive, let him go for the time being and make a decision after the investigation is completed.”
“Disciple will obey Uncle Mo’s orders.”
Nie Cuilan glanced at Wang Luchuan with disgust, then waved her hand, and several disciples of the Law Enforcement Pavilion skillfully controlled Wentao.
At this time, Mo Zhengyang threw the photo talisman in his hand back to Qi Yuan, and said with some laughter:
“You kid, you have deceived me, what’s the point of giving me a blank photo talisman? If Wen Tao doesn’t reveal the flaw in the end, let’s see how you end up!”
Qi Yuan laughed and said, “How can it be possible? You are impartial and selfless, and you can see everything clearly. When you picked up the photo talisman, those ghosts and monsters were scared to death. How could they not reveal the flaw?”
Empty?
In an instant, the expressions of everyone in the field froze, and their eyes were wide open.
