Chapter 219 Don't ask if you take it yourself, it's considered stealing
The inventory work went quickly.
In addition to the immeasurable loss of treasures, a number of celestial herbs and elixirs were lost, and the Tang family's most precious treasure, the Xuanji Flower, which represented the inheritance, was also missing.
Tang Weiwei was very anxious.
Many cultivators who were invited to see the sacrifice came to say goodbye in unison.
The elders didn't want to let them leave, but Tang Weiwei waved her hand to let them go.
These people are indeed innocent and have nothing on them.
The treasures in the tomb are all in Gu Tianyi's storage bag, and the Xuanji Flower is in his pocket. Holding these people down will only make others say that the Tang family is acting arrogantly.
"Young Master, we cannot let them leave until the matter is investigated."
The elders strongly opposed it.
"Is it useful to keep them here?" Tang Weiwei snorted coldly, "Or do you think asking them to take out the contents of the storage bag will be useful?"
The elder was silent.
Anyone who dares to snatch things under the nose of the Tang family must not be an ordinary person.
Since they are not ordinary people, I am afraid that even if they are searched one by one, they will not get the desired results.
Under Tang Weiwei's decision, these people were let go and left the Tang family.
The moment they stepped out of the snow in the sky, they all breathed a sigh of relief, as if they had been reborn.
Gu Tianyi, who was not an ordinary person, sat on the steps and sighed.
Tang Weiwei was very anxious, and so was he.
The Tang family is now heavily guarded, and everyone looks like a thief. The things are in his storage bag, which is really not safe.
He was so worried about this matter that he forgot to ask Gu Huai why he was sent to the tomb.
Jiang Chengan looked at Gu Tianyi, sighed and scratched his head, and couldn't help but ask, "Why are you so anxious? It's not like you took anything from the Tang family."
Gu Tianyi walked directly out of the tomb, so he was the most suspected. But it was precisely because he was the most suspicious that he was cleared of suspicion.
Everyone felt that Gu Tianyi was Tang Weiwei's junior brother, and it was impossible for him to do such an immoral thing. Secondly, he was the most suspicious person. Even if he took something, he shouldn't have come out so brazenly.
The elder actually had the idea of searching Gu Tianyi's storage bag. But after all, he studied under Weilan Xianzun, so he still needed to give her some face.
Jiang Chengan's casual words struck a knot in Gu Tianyi's heart.
He looked at Jiang Chengan with a guilty conscience, and after realizing that the latter was really talking nonsense, he put his heart back in his stomach.
"How is it possible, how could I take such a risk?"
He smiled and turned his head to look at Gu Huai, who was looking sideways at him.
The smile in his eyes was so obvious that Gu Tianyi's heart instantly broke.
Gu Tianyi couldn't hide the expression on his face and panicked for a few breaths.
"Huai, Brother Huai, why do you look at me so fiercely?"
Gu Huai smiled: "How can there be? Are you guilty of being a thief?"
When he sent Gu Tianyi to the tomb, Gu Huai knew that Gu Tianyi would definitely take the things inside.
The reason why he made a solemn promise to Tang Weiwei was just to get Gu Tianyi in first.
Otherwise, if he told Tang Weiwei honestly, how could Tang Weiwei agree?
In the original plot, Gu Tianyi was indeed such a sneaky guy.
Gu Huai looked down upon this 'trait' of his and decided to correct him first.
Children won't remember long without being taught a lesson, so he wanted to scare Gu Tianyi first.
"I heard that the Tang family's criminal law is quite terrible. Since we can't leave for a while, why not go take a look?"
Jiang Chengan had no objection. Hearing Gu Huai mention it, he was quite interested.
"no need."
On the contrary, Gu Tianyi, who has always been bold, expressed his unwillingness.
Jiang Chengan was confused: "That's not right, junior brother, you don't seem to be so afraid of this kind of thing before, right? Could it be..."
"Just take a look." Gu Tianyi immediately interrupted him in order to get rid of suspicion, "I just think it's not a good idea for us to do this when senior sister is so worried."
Tang Weiwei said that there was nothing wrong with it. In fact, she was eager to do it.
She should give Gu Tianyi a good warning and be honest and not offend her. Otherwise, she would make him wonder how he died!
Under Tang Weiwei's deliberate arrangement, she took Gu Tianyi to the most severe punishment room in the Tang family. After watching it, Gu Tianyi didn't feel well when he came out.
Tang Weiwei hinted to him intentionally or unintentionally that this is the fate of betrayers.
At night, Gu Tianyi tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. He always felt that a pair of eyes were looking at him.
He is not usually so timid, but this time the situation is special.
What he got was something from the Ascension Tomb, which the Tang family offered to the Ascension Ones.
What if the gods have spirits and know that I have stolen their things, will they punish me by punishing me?
Moreover, the person he provoked was the Tang family. If he took out the things and was discovered by his senior sister, the torture in the punishment room today would happen to him.
Thinking of this, Gu Tianyi couldn't sit still.
He stood up, walked out of the door, walked around the steps, and knocked on Gu Huai's door.
Gu Huai quickly opened the door.
He himself did not get up, but sat at the table and played a phoenix.
Gu Tianyi had never seen Gu Huai play any musical instrument, so he immediately sat across from Gu Huai and said, "Brother Huai, do you want to play the piano?"
Gu Huai was silent.
"Brother Huai?"
"Aren't you going to talk to me again?" Gu Huai had no intention of playing the piano and put the piano into his storage bag.
Being interrupted like this, Gu Tianyi began to wonder again whether he should tell the truth to Gu Huai. While he was in a dilemma, Gu Huai spoke:
"Take out the things you took out from the Tang family and take a look."
Before the sound ended, Gu Tianyi knew that Gu Huai had known it for a long time.
He knew early on that he was the one who took the things.
Pursing his lips, Gu Tianyi still wanted to struggle: "Brother Huai, what are you talking about? I'm not sure."
Gu Huai: "Stop pretending. I know this, and so does your senior sister. Otherwise, why do you think she let those people go?"
Gu Tianyi heard a 'bang' in his head and felt something collapsed. He sat down and looked at Gu Huai in disbelief:
"Then why didn't you expose me?"
Gu Huai: "We want to give you a chance. If we really expose you on the spot, do you think you can still stay in the world of immortality?"
The answer is obvious.
Gu Tianyi's nose was a little sore.
He lowered his eyes and opened his mouth without making a sound for a long time. It took a long time before he asked: "Sister, are you almost bored to death by me?"
"Yes! Not only am I annoyed to death, I also want to beat you to death!"
A person walked out from behind the curtain. Tang Weiwei's face turned red. She clenched the magical weapon Seven Star Sword in her hand and drew it towards Gu Tianyi's back.
Gu Tianyi did not hide, and the Seven Star Sword struck a red mark on his back.
Tang Weiwei did not draw her sword, and what hit Gu Tianyi's back was just the scabbard.
