Upon hearing this, Tang Zhen knelt down and picked up the thin bamboo tube.
It's not that Tang Zhen wasn't careful, but it was caused by the inertia of her thinking. This thin bamboo tube is one of the most common hidden weapons among the Tang Sect.
So after seeing the thin bamboo tube, Tang Zhen subconsciously thought it was a blow needle hidden in her mouth without even checking it carefully.
Of course, there is also the reason that Tang Zhen is old, her Qi and blood are exhausted, and her six senses are gradually declining.
If it were Tang Zhen when she was young, she could measure the weight of the thin bamboo tube just by weighing it with her hands, but now she no longer has such a feeling due to her age.
Under the light of the lantern, Tang Zhen saw that the thin bamboo tube was not hollow. Both ends of the middle part are sealed with a thin film coated with oil paper.
"There's something in here!"
Tang Zhen's words once again changed the expressions of everyone present.
"Get the jade pot!"
A Tang Sect disciple immediately ran all the way to fetch the jade pot.
"Mr. Zhen, I brought it!"
Tang Zhen shouted to another old man behind him, "Old Dai, come and see what kind of poison this is!? I'm not very knowledgeable in this area!"
The Tang Sect is unique in the use of concealed weapons and poisons, but people's energy is limited and it is impossible to be proficient in everything. Tang Zhen specializes in concealed weapons and the use of poisons. The Lao Dai in his mouth, whose original name is Tang Dai, is Lao Yi. The best poison user among his generation.
Although Tang Zhen and Tang Dai are only at the Tongmai Realm, their value to the Tang Sect is much higher than that of ordinary Yuanhua Realm warriors!
Tang Dai carefully took out a silver needle from his arms, poked a small hole in the oil paper membrane in the thin bamboo tube, and poured a few drops of colorless water from it.
Everyone in the Tang clan, including Tang Zhang, watched Tang Dai's movements.
"How?!" Yang Qingyuan asked.
Tang Dai shook his head and nodded again, "This poison is colorless and odorless, just like clear water."
The corner of Yang Qingyuan's mouth twitched slightly and asked, "Then how did you see it!?"
"Feeling! Xiaowu, bring me a dog! And get a piece of meat on the way!"
Among the Tangmen crowd, a boy immediately trotted all the way, and after half a quarter of an hour he found an old dog and a piece of meat.
At this time, the top management of Tang Sect had basically arrived.
This matter must have a result. An explanation must be given to the deceased Tang Lian, Tang Chi, and Tang Ju, an explanation to their supporters, friends, and relatives, and an explanation to the disciples of the Tang Sect.
The Tang sect uses blood as a bond, which makes them more united than other sect disciples, but this unity also puts more pressure on Tang Zhang at this time. If the matter is really caused by Tang Wei, then his position as the sect leader It's all going to be swaying.
Tang Dai fed the meat dripping with liquid to the dog in front of everyone.
The old dog sniffed the piece of meat dripping with unknown liquid, but without any hesitation, he ate it in one bite.
When Tang Dai saw this, he closed his eyes and said.
"Whether this is poison or not, we will know later."
It only took about half an hour for the dog to stand unsteadily and fall to the ground. After dozens of breaths, its whole body began to twitch, and blood gradually overflowed from the corners of its mouth. It wanted to make a whine, but it did not bark continuously. No strength at all.
In the end, blood dripped all over the ground, and the dog had no life left.
Tang Dai immediately collected some blood from the ground. In the process, he avoided contact with the blood.
Then he took out a bunch of bottles and jars from his sleeves and began to drip blood into the jade pot. After a hundred breaths, Tang Dai put down the jade pot in his hand.
"What is contained in this thin bamboo tube is indeed a strange poison that I have never seen before. This poison is colorless and odorless, and there is no clue from its appearance. This dog's sense of smell is far better than mine, and it didn't notice it either. There is nothing unusual about it.
In addition, the poison is extremely toxic. I only added a small drop to the piece of meat, and within half an hour, the dog died.
Judging from these characteristics, this poison is almost consistent with the Styx water mentioned by Yang Hou! "
As soon as this statement came out, there was an uproar.
"So, is it really Tang Wei who killed the two hall masters?!"
"I didn't expect that the young sect leader would be such a person!?"
"Painted painting difficult to draw tiger bone, Clothes make the man!"
"..."
Tang Zhang looked at this scene with a livid face, "Yang Hou, even if this traitor is captured by Yang Hou today, it will certainly prove that today this traitor has indeed committed murder, but how can Yang Hou prove that my two nephews, Chi Lian Son, and Tang Ju was also killed by him, we still need to investigate carefully."
Even at this time, Tang Zhang wanted to save his son. This was inconsistent with his previous cunning and cunning nature, but when it came to his own flesh and blood, it was normal to not be able to guarantee his sanity.
Tang Zhang's sophistry caused great dissatisfaction among the people in the Tang clan.
"Sect Master, the evidence is conclusive that Tang Wei poisoned Brother Foot. Is there anything else to investigate?!"
Tang Zhen was the first to stand up and object. He was the biological uncle of Tang Chi and Tang Lian. He had brought up Tang Chi and Tang Lian since they were young. To Tang Zhen, the look between the two of them was the same as losing a son, so now he is The most outrageous.
Tang Dai and Tang Zhen are old brothers. They are both half dead. They don't care about whether the sect is the master or not, and they directly stand up to support Tang Zhen.
"What Mr. Zhen said is absolutely true. Those evil thieves who killed their brothers should be dealt with according to the rules of the sect."
Tang Wei poisoned Tang Chi, Tang Lian, and Tang Ju. According to the Tang sect's rules, thousands of needles should be pierced through the heart!
"..."
Faced with the excitement of the crowd, even Tang Zhang, as the leader of the sect, could not continue to speak at this moment.
Now his position as the leader of the sect is no longer secure, and it is impossible to protect Tang Wei under such circumstances.
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
The cry of killing resounded through the night sky, making Tang Wei, who was lying on the ground, turn pale.
"you!!……"
"Shut up!" Before Tang Wei could speak, Yang Qingyuan's clear voice spread in all directions, abruptly interrupting everyone's shouts of killing.
Yang Qingyuan's voice seemed to resonate with the heaven and earth, not affected by the sound of "killing" at all, and was clearly transmitted to everyone's ears.
This is the natural sound of Taoism mixed with the lion's roar of three parts of Buddhism, which can clear the mind and calm the mind and drive away distracting thoughts.
The sound of the word reached his ears, and the murderous intent of everyone present subsided.
Just two words made those disciples who had never seen Yang Qingyuan look heavy. With such true energy and such cultivation, it is true that there are no empty warriors under the famous reputation!
Everyone in the Tang Clan looked at Yang Qingyuan in silence.
"Everyone, Tang Wei attempted murder and was captured on the spot. However, the process and motive of poisoning Tang Chi, Tang Lian, and Tang Ju are not yet clear. The case has not been clear yet. It would be too early to start shouting to kill them now.
Moreover, even if you want to bring him to justice, it is the legal responsibility of my court. How can you allow you to abuse lynching? ! "
"Master Hou, what you said is wrong!" As soon as Yang Qingyuan finished speaking, someone spoke up to refute.
It's just that the person who rebutted was beyond Yang Qingyuan's expectations.
Tang Zhang took a step forward and said, "Tang Wei is a disciple of my Tang Sect and the son of Tang Zhang. Even if he deserves death, he should be dealt with by our Tang Sect. If he is handed over to the imperial court, how can he Don’t you want people in the world to laugh at my Tang Clan?!”
Tang Zhang's move surprised everyone present, including Yang Qingyuan.
This is forcing Tang Wei to die!
If Tang Wei falls into the hands of Yang Qingyuan, it may not be the death penalty. Many things have not yet been clarified, so Tang Wei will not die for the time being.
Even if it is found out by then, Tang Wei may still have a glimmer of hope because he has shown that he has served his crime well.
But Tang Wei, who stayed in the Tang Sect and was dealt with according to the sect's rules, would undoubtedly die, and his death would be miserable.
Although Tang Zhang had been in charge of the Tang Sect for thirty years, he was still not strong enough to save his son who killed three Tang Sect heavyweights. The Tang Sect was not Tang Zhang's one word.
If Tang Zhang broke into the Dongxuan realm now, he might be able to save Tang Wei, but unfortunately he was only in the Yuanhua realm.
Then his operation is very confusing!
Tang Zhen is an old man. Although he couldn't figure it out at first, looking at the reactions of the young people from the Tang Sect around him, he immediately understood what Tang Zhang, the old fox, was planning.
Although Tang Wei killed three masters of his generation, Po Datian had nothing to do with Tang Zhang.
But now Tang Zhang stood up and gave up his son's life to fight Yang Qingyuan for the sake of the Tang family's face.
This moved many people in the Tang sect very much. Tang Zhang may not be good at teaching his children, but he is definitely a good sect leader.
Tang Zhen looked at the transformation of these young people and sneered in her heart. She risked her own son's life to secure her position as the leader of the sect. This old fox was so cruel!
Not only Tang Zhen, Yang Qingyuan also thought of this level.
But after thinking about it, this wave of stop-loss operations was still in place. Although it forced his son to death, it could establish a reputation as a selfless person and at the same time stabilize his position as the head of the family.
Although his son is dead, Tang Zhang still has a grandson!
Tang Zheng has always been loved by Tang Zhang, and his reputation among the Tang sect is also excellent. Tang Zhang could rely on his own prestige to pass the position of sect leader to Tang Zheng.
nice! He is worthy of being the head of the Tang Sect for thirty years, and he has good skills.
"Tang Clan Master, Tang Clan members, are you going to set up a private execution hall and carry out private executions?!"
It was set up behind Yang Qingyuan's back, so forget it if he didn't know, but now he wants to use lynching to kill Tang Wei in front of Yang Qingyuan. What does this mean? A slap in the face? !
"The whole world is not the king's land, and the shores of the land are not the king's ministers! What does Tang Clan mean? Is it to despise the laws of the Zhou Dynasty?!"
Faced with Yang Qingyuan's questioning, Tang Zhang did not flinch, but stood up straighter.
"Yang Hou, this is not a private punishment of the Tang family, but the clan rules of my Tang family!"
Tang Zhang's answer made Yang Qingyuan frown.
The patriarchal system is the core of the current laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and it is also a major feature of the Chinese legal system on Blue Star.
The clan concept has an extremely profound impact on the law, which is reflected in all aspects of the law such as legislation, conviction and sentencing.
In order to obtain their own safety and order within the family, the people living together in a clan must abide by the clan rules in addition to the king's laws.
This is the so-called "state-owned and national laws, and families have family rules."
The family rules here are not the kind of family rules for a family of three or five, but the family rules of a clan.
The clan leader can still decide to impose death sentences such as Shen Tan on the clan members who have committed "serious crimes against moral ethics". If there is sufficient evidence, the court will not even hold them accountable.
The Tang Sect is not only a sect, but also a clan. That's why Tang Zhang could use the clan rules to fight against the national law at this moment!
Seeing that the head of their own sect could actually make Yang Qingyuan speechless, the eyes of the younger generation of the Tang sect were filled with brilliance.
Yang Qingyuan chuckled when he heard this. He could choose to reason with the people of Tang Clan, or of course he could choose to show his fists.
Now it doesn't make sense, so use your fists!
Yang Qingyuan flexed his left hand to grasp, a white sword light lit up between his palms, and a small sword condensed with true energy rose and fell in Yang Qingyuan's palm.
"No matter how powerful the Tang family's clan rules are, can they still beat the sword in Yang's hand?!"
As he spoke, Yang Qingyuan slashed towards the left side, and the small white sword turned into an unparalleled sword energy, tearing the clouds and the sky, with endless power, reaching seven feet and not stopping. A three-finger-wide crack was cut into the wall of the courtyard.
Despite this heavy blow, the courtyard wall did not collapse, which is enough to prove that Yang Qingyuan's sword energy is condensed and will not disperse.
Of course, it also shows that the construction quality of Tangjiabao is good.
Not only the courtyard wall, but also a ravine about an inch wide and more than a foot deep above the ground.
This sword silenced everyone in the Tang Clan who had wanted to shout just now.
Is this the strength of Fa Tian Xiang Di and Qing Yuan Sword Lord? !
It is really beyond the imagination of warriors like them who are at the Yuan Hua realm and below.
"Tang Clan Master, are you trying to see if I can take away prisoners from Tang Clan?!"
The power of a sword can intimidate a faction.
But after the shock, the senior officials of Tang Sect reacted and took out hidden weapons and poisons from their arms.
This is all slapped in the face of the Tang Sect, and they have to hold on for a while, otherwise the Tang Sect will really not be able to survive in Shu in the future.
Just when the two sides were at war with each other, it was Tang Zhang who stopped everyone in the Tang clan.
"Stop! Do you want to watch the Tang Sect bleed into a river of blood?!"
Although Tang Zhang's words don't sound good, everyone knows that it is the truth. If the two sides really take action, the outcome will probably be - Yang Hou, although you have incredible skills, if we separate and escape, your true energy will be exhausted. Even if we try our best, we may not be able to kill everyone! !
Tang Zhang took a step forward and bowed deeply to Yang Qingyuan.
"Master!"
"Master!"
Amid everyone's exclamations, Tang Zhang said, "Yang Hou, today, I, Tang Zhang, have no way to teach his son, and must give an explanation to the Tang Sect. If Yang Hou is willing to hand over Tang Wei to the Tang Sect, Tang Zhang is willing to accept the law of the country!"
"Master!"
"Shut up!" Tang Zhang opened his mouth and stopped the Tang clan member who wanted to explain, but looked directly at Yang Qingyuan.
Although Yang Qingyuan's face was expressionless, he was secretly muttering in his heart whether Tang Zhang's performance was too much!
Faced with Tang Zhang's sincere request, Yang Qingyuan did not agree.
What does it mean to hand over Tang Wei to the Tang clan and then punish Tang Zhang? !
Yang Qingyuan didn't really want to kill the Tang clan until there were mountains of bones and rivers of blood, and human lives were not considered trivial.
Although there is no way to get the Tang Sect to agree to hand over the person, the current situation does not require the Tang Sect’s consent!
While everyone was waiting for Yang Qingyuan's answer, Yang Qingyuan's figure in front of them disappeared and disappeared. The next moment, he appeared next to Tang Wei, picked up Tang Wei, and disappeared again.
The next moment he appeared, he was already above the eaves.
"Okay, let's all go back and rest! No need to send him away!"
After saying these words, Yang Qingyuan's figure completely disappeared into the night sky, leaving everyone in the Tang Sect looking at each other in shock.
