The Law Enforcement Hall is particularly lively today.
In the front, the two family heads, Ma Lian and Cheng Rusong, performed a full martial arts performance, and later, the deputy priest, Princess Xianghua, cried and complained about being bullied.
There are people tearing each other up, there are fights, but how can it be so lively?
The Law Enforcement Hall, which even the saints would normally avoid, has now become like a vegetable market and has become a unique scenery of the temple.
Because of the chaos, no one noticed that two inconspicuous figures appeared in the crowd watching the excitement.
"Hey, this law enforcement hall today is enough to drink a pot."
Gossip is human nature.
Even in the cold and lonely temple, people still couldn't restrain their restless hearts.
After all, this kind of thing only happens once in a hundred years.
"No, although the law enforcement elders are the most unkind, the person who caused trouble today is not an ordinary saint. Brother, where are you from?"
The saint who was responsible for the voluntary explanation glanced at this strange little man and asked casually.
"I'm down there. It's a rare opportunity to come up and have a look today."
Although the little man looks ordinary, he is quite clever.
"I wonder what I call eldest brother?"
There are also high and low distinctions among saints.
Obviously the person explaining it was not a high-level saint, so when meeting him, he didn't have any airs.
"My name is Xie Qiang, I'm a little man. It's rare to see such excitement today. You are considered a lucky person."
After Xie Qiang finished speaking, he turned around and continued explaining to others.
The little man slowly squeezed out from the crowd.
"How is it, Miss Gong, are you satisfied?"
Taoist Yurong was leaning in the corner. He seemed to be very familiar with this place, and when he just arrived here, he said hello to himself, but he didn't know where he went.
"It's so-so, but I just feel sorry for the law enforcement elder. Unfortunately, it's too far outside. It would be nice if there were special seats."
She sighed and said with infinite emotion.
Taoist Yurong smiled, with a bit of helplessness in his eyes.
"It seems that Madam knows Miss Gong's temperament. Please come with me."
lady?
Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows. She hadn't seen him for a few days, but that boy Xie Han actually learned how to serve cabbage?
Perhaps her resentful eyes were too hot, and Taoist Yu Rong was not used to it.
He turned sideways and looked at her.
"Miss Gong, what is this?"
"Did I tell you that we are not allowed to harvest the cabbage?"
Taoist Yurong couldn't help laughing and explained immediately.
"I made a mistake, it's Miss Jun'er. Please don't worry, Miss Gong, my host is quite well-behaved."
Narrow Eyes, Lin Mengya was temporarily relieved after confirming the truth or falsehood of his words.
Compared with their prayer hall, the law enforcement hall is more primitive and grand.
They avoided the crowd and walked towards the side entrance of the Law Enforcement Hall.
There was almost no one here, and she also found that the people in the Law Enforcement Hall seemed to be very familiar with Taoist Yurong.
After seeing him, he just nodded slightly and then stepped back.
No one came to stop him.
Lin Mengya lowered her head and tried hard to eliminate her sense of existence.
Soon, the two people walked deep into the law enforcement hall.
Taoist Yurong opened a door and led her into a spacious and tidy room.
After a quick glance, she realized that this place should be a reception room.
"You hide behind the screen, don't be afraid, no one will find you."
He pushed her behind a huge screen. The screen was not light-transmitting, and there was a bead curtain hanging in front. As long as you didn't go around to the back, you really couldn't see anyone.
"how about you?"
She asked softly, while Taoist Yurong smiled and spun up, like a dexterous night cat, climbing up to the roof in an instant.
"Shh, someone is coming!"
Taoist Yurong silenced his voice, and Lin Mengya immediately shrank behind the screen.
After a while, the door was pushed open.
Then, several different footsteps came in one after another.
"It's ridiculous! This is the first time in the temple's history that something like this has happened! Are the Ma family and Cheng family crazy?"
Obviously, this man was very angry.
Although Lin Mengya couldn't see the person's appearance, she remembered his voice.
"Elder Liu, that's not what you said."
The person who spoke next had a kind voice.
"I think what the Ma family leader and the Cheng family leader said makes sense. After all, it was the deputy priest who broke the rules first. Since he is the deputy priest, he must uphold the laws of the temple. The Yuan Yue Festival is not a joke and must not be messed with.
"
"Elder Wu, what do you mean?"
Elder Liu asked Elder Wu with a hint of displeasure in his tone.
"I only act according to the rules in the palace. As a deputy priest, can I ignore the rules?"
"you!"
The two faced each other tit for tat, neither giving in to the other.
Just when a fight was about to start, I suddenly heard a slightly older voice saying, "Okay, there's a fight outside, do you want to follow suit?"
The voice was somewhat majestic, and immediately, the two people, who were noisy like cockfighting, fell silent in an instant.
Come to think of it, this should be the legendary law enforcement elder, right?
Lin Mengya tried her best to stretch her neck to see, but for safety, she huddled behind the screen.
"Both sides are at fault in this matter. Ma and Cheng really shouldn't have taken action against the deputy, but I have investigated this matter clearly. It was the deputy who broke the rules first. The deputy should indeed give an explanation for this matter."
.”
What this man said was very to the point.
But Elder Liu was not convinced, but he did not dare to choke like before.
"But Great Elder, if Ma and Cheng are not punished, won't everyone be able to disobey the rules in the future?"
Lin Mengya frowned slightly. Long Tianyu had mentioned before that Yue Qi's current situation was not simple.
This Elder Liu has been protecting her.
"I haven't finished speaking yet, why are you anxious?"
The great elder made Elder Liu as quiet as a chicken with just one word.
"I have asked Ma Lian and Cheng Rusong before, and they said they are willing to be punished. In this case, those who make mistakes will be punished. Today's matter has been revealed."
The Great Elder was very forceful. Once he finished speaking, there was no room for anyone else to refute.
"As commanded."
No matter what I thought in my heart, but now, the dust has settled.
Those people also walked out of the room where they were hiding one after another. After Lin Mengya made sure no one was staying, she quietly walked out from behind the screen.
"Do you understand this matter?"
Taoist Yurong had a half-smiling expression on his face, and the flashing emotions in his eyes made Lin Mengya a little confused.
"I understand, I understand, but there is one thing that I'm still confused about."
Taoist Yurong looked at her and sighed.
"You still guessed it?"
"Yeah, but I'm just curious. Since you are the son of the law enforcement elder, why did you volunteer to be Xie Han's subordinate?"
In fact, it is easy to guess the identity of Taoist Yurong. If he is not a high-ranking and powerful person, how could he run rampant in the law enforcement hall?
Judging from his familiarity with this place, he must have grown up here.
Just now, Lin Mengya saw the prestige of the law enforcement elders among this group of elders.
In this case, except for the son of the law enforcement elder, she could not think of anyone who fit the status of Taoist Yurong.
"Some things cannot be explained clearly in just a few words. We can't stay here too long, so let's go out first."
Nodding, the two quickly left the house. After making sure no one saw them, they Came to the front yard.
At this time, the law enforcement elders had already announced the results of the handling.
Ma Lian and Cheng Rusong both put down their weapons and knelt down on one knee to express their acceptance of the result.
On the contrary, it was Yue Qi who stood there with a sullen expression, looking directly at the law enforcement elder.
"I'm not wrong! Why punish me! Is it possible that you are all blind? It's obvious that they were the ones who injured the people in front of me, so I'm not wrong!"
Her tone was so arrogant that even the saints around her began to whisper.
All the elders were very angry, but the law enforcement elder stood calmly in the middle.
"If you want to punish them, you can only punish them! I am the deputy priest, and if you dare to attack me, you are disrespecting the god! Don't forget that in the Yuan Yue Festival, the status of the main priest and the deputy priests is supreme!"
Lin Mengya finally understood why Yue Qi was so arrogant.
Her identity as the assistant priest of emotions is her support.
The surrounding elders couldn't help but feel embarrassed. They also knew the seriousness of the matter, so they went to invite the law enforcement elders.
Seeing everyone's eyes turned to him, the law enforcement elder walked slowly in front of everyone.
"I, Ding Xu, as the law enforcement elder, confess my sins to the Holy Spirit of the Temple. Today, I will uphold the principles of the Law Enforcement Temple and handle this matter impartially. Please forgive me for my sin of disrespect!"
After saying that, he actually dropped the crutch he had been holding.
There was a 'bang' sound, and it was obviously a wooden crutch, but it made a sound of gold and jade.
Lin Mengya saw the elders behind them showing expressions of surprise.
It seems that this crutch should be the token of the law enforcement elder!
Could it be said that in order to punish Yue Qi, he actually gave up his position as the law enforcement elder?
Lin Mengya found it a bit unbelievable, but Yue Qi was holding back, not believing that the law enforcement elders would really deal with her.
The great elder looked at her seriously, and what he said was very convincing.
"I, Ding Xu, have been in charge of the Law Enforcement Hall for decades. I have always been unselfish and without any favoritism. Since you don't dare, I will personally carry out the punishment. From now on, I will be dismissed as the Great Elder of the Law Enforcement Hall.
Sir. I also ask all my colleagues to punish me for being disrespectful to the deputy priest."
These words made Lin Mengya thoughtful.
The Great Elder is obviously a stubborn person, and Taoist Yurong's temperament is really extraordinary.
How could such a father and son get along harmoniously?
She secretly glanced at Taoist Yurong next to her, and sure enough, she saw a sarcastic smile on the corner of his mouth.
Lin Mengya suddenly had a strange idea. Could it be that Taoist Yurong dragged the great elder into the water on purpose?
