Several people sighed, but there was nothing they could do.
If you go directly to the meeting hall to petition, you will probably be killed without waiting to speak.
It's not common for people like the gang from the Finance Hall to escape unscathed after robbing the account books.
There are wives and children at home, and no one wants to risk their lives.
Scenes like this kept happening throughout the Blood Shadow headquarters, and everyone was looking forward to killing Zhang Dingyi as soon as possible.
Moreover, most people feel that the salary deduction is not only Zhang Dingyi's fault, but also the Zhang family and Zhang Dingming's involvement.
Such a treacherous and evil man could actually hold the position of financial elder for two hundred years.
Even if the great elder was not involved in dividing the spirit stone, if his own brother did this, how could the great elder not know?
Therefore, the great elder is either complicit in the evil, or is shielding and conniving.
In any case, he is not qualified as a great elder.
The Xu family is just watching the excitement and doesn't think it's a big deal, and they're not anxious at all.
Xu Qingquan and Xu Qinghui were able to hold their temper and look for evidence. They wanted to dig up all the properties under Zhang Dingyi's name and study every stone carefully.
The Finance Hall also temporarily suspended the payment of salaries due to the lack of treasury.
The middle and lower class disciples could have calmed down and waited to watch the fun.
Now that there is no salary payment at all, how can they support their family?
After struggling in the Punishment Hall for more than a month, the middle and lower level disciples of Blood Shadow could no longer hold on.
Many Zifu and Foundation Establishment disciples stopped doing their own work and gathered in Blood Shadow City, blocking the outside of the Finance Hall.
The more people gather together, the more trouble they will cause if they are not careful.
The punishment hall is controlled by the Xu family. They just wait to watch the excitement and will not care about these things.
After being blocked for a long time, someone in the crowd who was not afraid of death finally stood up.
This man was thin, pale, and severely deficient in energy and blood. He was the monk surnamed Zheng who was cutting down spiritual trees in a forest farm north of Blood Shadow City.
He walked to the door of the Finance Hall and shouted: "When can you pay your salary? My family has no food.
I can hold it myself, but my child has just embarked on the path of spiritual practice, and my wife is still pregnant, so they can't hold it.
If I don't get my salary today, my wife and children will starve to death, and there will be no point in living for me.
At worst, if you fight to the death, even if you can't grab anything, you will still be covered in blood."
A steward walked out of the Finance Hall: "What's the point of shouting at the door of the Finance Hall? Zhang Dingyi embezzled hundreds of millions of medium-grade spiritual stones, and there was also a shortage of spiritual stones in the Treasury of the Finance Hall.
If you don't take him down, how can I give you the spiritual stone?
I, the manager, am just like you. I haven’t eaten any spiritual food for a month, so my wife, children, and children can only survive by eating weeds in the yard."
Someone in the crowd shouted: "Brothers, since the Finance Hall cannot issue spiritual stones, let's go to the Meeting Hall to see the Shadow Master.
Please beg her to kill Zhang Dingyi and let the Zhang family spit out the spiritual stones that were stolen from us."
The thousands of people present were filled with resentment and wanted to tear the Zhang family to pieces.
As soon as someone incited them, the fire that had been suppressed for many years burst out, and they rushed towards the meeting hall with a loud roar.
The thin monk surnamed Zheng was walking at the front and was stopped by the guards in front of the main hall.
He shouted loudly inside: "Shadow Master, we have no way to survive. Please show mercy and allow us to have something to eat and feed our family."
Soon, thousands of people gathered outside the meeting hall.
There were dozens of people among them, shouting towards the main hall.
The meeting hall is protected by a formation. No matter how noisy it is outside, no sound can be transmitted in.
However, there are guards who can deliver messages.
These guards were also arranged by Xu Qinghe. Now that the matter has become serious, it is time to close the net.
One of the guards walked into the hall, cupped his hands towards Zhou Luan and said: "To inform the Shadow Master, there are thousands of people gathered outside the meeting hall.
Some people can no longer open the pot at home, and if there is no more food, their families will starve to death.
They demanded that Zhang Dingyi be killed and the Zhang family return their hard-earned money.
Some people also say..."
"say what?"
"They said they wanted to fight hard before they died. If they couldn't kill the Zhang family, they would still spill their blood."
Zhang Dingming's face was dark, but he didn't dare to say anything.
Zhou Luan sighed: "If there was still something to eat, they wouldn't have come to this point. Let's go meet these low-level monks together."
After that, the group of people walked out of the hall.
When the monks outside the main hall saw Zhou Luan coming out, they all knelt down and begged: "Please the Shadow Master to give us a way to survive. There are no spiritual stones in the Finance Hall. If we can't get the spiritual stones anymore, our family will starve to death."
"
Someone else shouted: "Zhang Dingyi deprived us of our hard-earned money. This kind of person deserves death and should be executed immediately."
There are also some who are more extreme, shouting that they want to destroy the nine Zhangding Yi tribes.
Zhou Luan said loudly: "Disciples, calm down first. I am also from the lower-middle class of Blood Shadow, and I also know your suffering.
But now that the case has not been investigated, we cannot kill people rashly.
There is really something that cannot be revealed, I still have some private property here, I will give it to you first, and then we can get through the current difficulties."
Someone in the crowd immediately shouted: "The Shadow Master is good to us lower-level disciples, and we know it in our hearts.
Otherwise, we would not have investigated Zhang Dingyi, a beast.
The Zhang family must be relying on their power to bully the film owner."
This person should be from the Xu family, and his words succeeded in drawing everyone's anger to the Zhang family.
At this time, another person shouted: "I have a grievance, and I beg the Shadow Master to avenge me."
This person is a middle-aged man whose cultivation has reached the middle stage of Zifu.
"If you have any grievances, just speak up."
The middle-aged man said: "My name is Zeng Chou, and my father Zeng Rong was originally the deputy hall master of the Jinshan branch in the capital of Shen Kingdom.
When that beast Zhang Dingyi was the leader of the Jinshan branch, he saw my sister's beauty and took her back to the cave by force.
My father went to rescue my sister and had a conflict with him.
He was not sure he could win against my father, so he let my sister go.
But this beast had a grudge and led others to slaughter my entire family of more than 30 people.
If it hadn't been for someone to save me, I probably wouldn't be alive today.
Fortunately, the sky has eyes, and the evil deeds of this beast were exposed.
I dared to report him only after the master of the film personally interrogated him. I still have in my hand the photo beads left by the person who saved me at that time."
This is the orphan Xu Qinghe mentioned before, and he still has evidence in his hand that Zhang Dingyi wiped out his entire family.
The deputy hall leader of the first-level branch of Blood Shadow, whose status is equivalent to that of a sinecure elder.
Let alone the leader of the hall, even the great elder cannot kill him without reason, let alone Zhang Dingyi who killed everyone in his family.
The deputy hall leader of the first-level branch needs the unanimous consent of the chief elder, second elder, and third elder before he can be appointed.
A deputy hall leader said it was over, but he was still stunned that no news had spread. Apparently someone at the headquarters had taken action to suppress this matter.
Suppressing such a thing is also a capital crime.
Once it is found out, a large number of elders will probably be implicated.
This move can be said to be a trump card. As long as it is confirmed, the Zhang family will have to break their muscles.
As soon as this statement came out, more than a dozen people cried out for injustice.
Some people accused Zhang Dingyi of killing people and taking wealth, while others accused him of taking people's wives and daughters.
"Elder Punishment, go find out about this matter.
Elder Han, Elder Cao, Elder Wu, you three will supervise the trial."
The four of them said yes, and then took these people to the Penal Hall for verification.
Then he called Zhang Mengguang, the chief manager of the Finance Hall: "I remember that there is a treasure house spiritual stone in the sect's treasury, which is used to prepare for emergencies.
Now that Blood Shadow is not in any danger, let us first allocate some of the treasure-keeping spirit stones to provide emergency relief to these disciples."
Zhang Mengguang said quickly: "Shadow Master must not do it, these treasure-keeping spirit stones are related to the foundation of Blood Shadow.
Once something unexpected happens and there is no spiritual stone available, the sect’s foundation may not be guaranteed.”
"The Zhenku Lingshi is related to the foundation of Blood Shadow, but the disciples are not related to the foundation?
These disciples have made many contributions to the sect on weekdays, but now they have reached the point where they cannot open the pot.
It chills the hearts of these disciples, who will be willing to contribute to Blood Shadow in the future?
As long as the human heart is still there, what does the spiritual stone mean?"
