? The object that makes Xu Qing's heart throb is hanging around Lu Huanyu's neck. It is a purple crystal tied with platinum strands. This crystal is also oval-shaped. Regardless of its color, gloss and texture, it is the same as the one he bought from the antique street vendor last time.
The one that comes is generally the same, but smaller in size, only as big as the belly of your little finger.
From the extremely luxurious decoration in the main hall, it can be inferred that this middle-aged Taoist priest is definitely a wealthy man, and the items he can tie around his neck are probably worth even more.
Xu Qing has never understood the function of this purple crystal. He just looked at it as it looked more beautiful and pleasing to the eye. On a whim, he made it into a pendant and wore it around his neck. Now it seems that the original decision was correct. It was a mistake! Wait.
When I'm done, I'll go back and find an expert to identify the origin of this thing.
"Old Master Lu, fourteen lives were taken by one gang. The Lu family is so majestic." Qiu Biebi took a sip of tea, as if waiting for Lu Huanyu's answer.
Lu Huanyu frowned and said, "Jiu Qiu made a serious statement. The inner sect of the Lu family has nothing to do with the world, so how can we take human lives?" This old Taoist was a bachelor, so he brushed it off as soon as he opened his mouth.
Qiu Bieli smiled coldly, took out a cowhide envelope from his arms and patted it: "Lao Dao Lu, the evidence is conclusive, see for yourself!" After speaking, he raised his palm and the cowhide envelope flew out of his hand, spinning in the air.
Moving quickly, the two were five meters away from each other. The envelope arrived in an instant and went straight to the door of the old road.
Lu Huanyu flicked his sleeves, and the envelope that flew to the door suddenly hovered, as if it was floating in front of him out of thin air. The old man raised the corners of his mouth, stretched out his palm, and gently took out the envelope.
Opening the envelope, there was a stack of photos inside. Lu Huanyu took the photos in his hands and looked at them one by one, a solemn look gradually appeared on his face.
The photo shows exactly what happened when a man and a woman committed a murder. Whether it was a detention center or a hospital, there were surveillance cameras. It was very simple to get a few photos. The faces of the two people in the photo were so clear that Lu Huanyu could not evade them.
.
"Master Lu, please don't tell me that this couple is not from the Lu family." Qiu Bieli put down his teacup, took a puff from his pipe, and half-squinted his eyes with enjoyment.
Lu Huanyu didn't answer, and slapped his hand directly on the armrest of the chair. Boom! A loud bell sounded outside the hall, and then he heard a rush of footsteps.
Miso miso miso——
Five men and one woman walked in from outside the main hall. To be precise, they should be five old men and one old lady. These six people were dressed in rich clothes. In comparison, Lu Huanyu, who was wearing a gray preacher's robe, looked much shabby.
Qiu Bieli recognized these six people. They were all elders in the inner sect of the Lu family. In terms of age, these six people were all over a hundred years old. They were a slap in the face compared to Qiu Bieli. They were a group of veritable old monsters.
Lu Huanyu's face was solemn, and he sat down with a flick of his sleeves. The stack of photos flew up as if blown by a strong wind, slid down an arc in the air, and landed in front of six old people in rich clothes.
The six elders cast their eyes indiscriminately on the photo on the ground. Five of them could not see any change in their expressions. Only one had a slight change in expression. He was the third elder Lu Kaiwu. Both men and women were his disciples.
"Elder Enlightenment, these two are your disciples, right?" Lu Huanyu leaned on the chair handle and his voice sounded like a bell in the hall.
Lu Kaiwu took two steps forward, bowed and cupped his hands: "Sect Master, yes!"
This old man was a bachelor, and he frankly admitted that the man and woman were his disciples, which attracted all the eyes of the Chinese martial arts to focus on him.
Lu Huanyu's face was as dark as water, and he tapped his fingers on the chair handle: "Give me an explanation."
Lu Kaiwu glanced at the Chinese martial arts crowd and said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone: "The Zigang Order is supreme to our Lu family. If you hold the order, you can ask the Lu family to do whatever they can for them. This sect rule has lasted for hundreds of years.
No change, all I did was follow the sect’s rules.”
"Hmph! Does the sect's rules mean that human life is like a piece of grass?" Tong Qianzhan opened his eyes, showing power without anger.
Lu Kaiwu said expressionlessly: "Is there any of you here who doesn't have a few lives in your hands? What's wrong with following ancient precepts?"
All the members of the Chinese Martial Arts were speechless for a while. This elder Lu was a pure legal illiteracy. In his eyes, the sect rules were the only laws, which made people dumbfounded. Not to mention that everyone here had several lives on their hands.
Including Xu Qing who just joined.
Qiu Bieli looked stern and said: "What a joke, Master Lu doesn't think that ancient precepts are greater than the laws of the country, right?"
Lu Huanyu's expression remained unchanged and he said in a deep voice: "Where is the person holding the order now?"
A trace of pride appeared on the corner of Lu Kaiwu's mouth, and he said to himself, it seems that the master of the sect still attaches great importance to the ancient precepts. In the Lu family, the law is the law, and killing a few secular people is nothing.
"Reporting to the sect leader, Bai Zhandong, the leader, passed away after being rescued yesterday. His younger brother and his daughter-in-law took refuge in the sect for the time being." Although Lu Kaiwu was an unscrupulous legal illiterate, he still respected the sect leader.
"Where is Zigang Ling now?" Lu Huanyu asked again, without any intention of blaming Lu Kaiwu in his words.
Lu Kaiwu took off a jade plaque from his waist and handed it over respectfully. Lu Huanyu took the jade plaque and turned to the Chinese martial arts crowd and said: "When a person dies, he will turn into ashes. You can take them away to avoid the three of them. I just want to take them with you."
It’s okay to take possession of human corpses, the Lu family will never interfere.”
Lu Huanyu deliberately turned the topic to Zigang Ling and the Bai family. His intention to protect his shortcomings was obvious. He could take away the Bai family and even Bai Zhandong's body, but the Lu family, the man and the woman who committed the murder, had to be protected.
As Lu Kaiwu said just now, as an ancient warrior, no one has many lives on his hands, so everyone should just tacitly understand this matter.
Qiu Bieli smiled coldly and said: "The murderer goes unpunished and a few secular people are pushed to take the blame. Lu Laodao is really a good calculator!"
Lu Huanyu frowned and said, "What do you want?" As the master of a sect, he could not easily hand over his disciples to the law, not to mention that the laws in the secular world were not too big for ancient warriors.
The binding force of the ancient warriors is that the strong are respected.
Qiu Bieli lit the pot on the jade table in front of him and said in a deep voice: "The Bai family will be taken away, and the murderer will also be taken away. This is the bottom line. You can also interpret it as an ultimatum."
Mr. Qiu specially emphasized the word 'ultimatum', almost word for word, and his sonorous and powerful voice echoed endlessly in the hall.
"It's too much to bully others. Do you think that the Lu family will be afraid of your gang of hawks and dogs?" Lu Kaiwu's beard and hair were spread out, and his eyes were glaring with hatred, and he had the intention of fighting.
