Rong Tong was almost forced to move by the divine aura on the jade slip. At that time, she instinctively sensed that something bad might be about to happen, but she only had time to use magic to open the communication with Baoqin.
Fellow Daoist Zhang behind her cast an inquiring look at her. She didn't even have time to open her mouth to say goodbye. The brilliance indicating the activation of the teleportation array had already flashed, and "Under the Mind" fell to the wooden floor with a peeling varnish with a thud. It rolled to the edge of his robe, and the girl next to the bookshelf had disappeared.
"Zhang Wei" rolled up his sleeves and gently picked up the jade slip with his slender fingers. The remaining divine aura was floating in the air, and he could feel the familiarity of the same origin. With a hook of his index finger, the aura was immediately gathered together, and penetrated into his body like a fish in water, sinking into his soul.
"Asking about the enchantment of the heart?" He stroked the jade slip with his fingertips thoughtfully.
"Miss, it's me. What happened?" Baoqin's calm voice came from the jade slip.
"I'm... not sure," Rong Tong endured the dizziness and ringing in his ears caused by being suddenly teleported. "Just now, the Law Enforcement Hall suddenly summoned me, and even the teleportation array was used. I don't know what happened. ?”
She steeled herself and observed her surroundings, "This place... seems to be a place similar to a government office or a court hall."
She found that she was on the right side of this "court", and there was a small bench behind her for her to sit on. On the left hand side, directly in front of this "court hall", there are three Taishi chairs placed neatly. Judging from the position allocation, Rong Tong feels that he may not be an important role in a certain drama that will be staged next.
In the middle, on the cold stone tile floor, there was a "mummy" kneeling prostrate, seemingly wrapped in a shroud. Because the other person's vital signs were too weak, his breath was loose, and his consciousness was low, Rong Tong almost killed this guy at one point. Ignored.
What the hell? !
She looked at the "mummy" in confusion, and the "mummy" also raised his head with difficulty. What was exposed in Rong Tong's sight were large dark-brown scabs and green-green pus. The eye circles were so rotten that they were red and full of pus. The two bloodshot eyes were horribly large. This was definitely a nightmare face that could stop a child from crying at night.
"You...are you the female cultivator who framed me?" The hoarse voice contained instinctive fear and forced sharpness.
Framed? Sorry, who are you?
Rong Tong was stunned and couldn't figure out who this person was from his face that almost blinded her eyes. Hearing the words, he just felt inexplicable and wanted to curse him instinctively.
"Miss, calm down!" Baoqin on the other side of the jade slip stopped her from opening her mouth in time, "I just found out that the barrier of questioning left by Emperor Xuan in front of the law enforcement hall was broken into by a mortal today, and he sued Kunlun. A certain female nun in the city framed him and imprisoned him on Christmas Eve in the Detached City. Based on what you described before, that female nun may be referring to you."
Rong Tong immediately fell silent. She forced herself to hold back the pain that hurt her eyes and carefully observed the figure kneeling underneath - an ordinary person, probably a bit bulky, burned... oh, still vaguely recognizable. Identify the scars under his eyes.
He's not running away anymore. Isn't this the same trafficker who raped a girl on Christmas Eve?
"Miss, did you really frame a mortal?"
"..."
"Roughly the same."
Rong Tong held his forehead, she really just had a kind intention at that time and wanted to avoid future troubles for the vast number of women and compatriots in the city! By the way, it’s just to wipe out the juniors who were deceived by the original body!
Why did the first attempt to bully others—or such a roundabout way of bullying—turn the other way?
Baoqin stopped talking. She probably understood that even if she complained about her young lady being extremely boring and careless in doing things, everything would be the same. If you have this time, it's better to wait and see what happens and see how things turn out.
Rong Tong didn't say a word, just regarded the big mummy as air, and looked around.
#Anyway, in the world of cultivation, it is only natural that I respect the strength and ignore an ant#
"Speaking of Baoqin, what exactly is the heart barrier?" She ignored the increasingly resentful eyes of the man kneeling below, and simply began to ask Baoqin for advice, so that she could guess what she was about to face next.
"Eight hundred years ago when Xuanhuang was established, all the power of criminal names and laws was vested in the Law Enforcement Hall. The Wenxin Barrier was a special institution of the Law Enforcement Hall. If anyone was dissatisfied after the Law Enforcement Hall issued a judgment, he could enter the barrier and appeal again, and the result would be Once the formation in the circle is activated, the complainant will have to accept the "Three Strikes of Questioning the Heart", asking whether he is lying? Is the law unfair? Is he not regretting it even after nine deaths? It is difficult for ordinary people to hide under the influence of the formation. They can only be sure and firm. Only those with strong faith can pass, which proves that he is indeed unjust. The formation will forcefully summon the defendant, and randomly select monks from Kunlun monks whose cultivation level is higher than that of the defendant to serve as the general judge and re-hear the case. Treat others Everyone is present and the formation will be activated."
Rong Tong's mouth twitched when he heard this. Whose genius' idea was this weird idea that combines the American imperial jury court and the ancient Greek citizens' assembly to take turns sitting in the court?
"Then how should the case be tried? Even if objective injustice is ruled out in this way, how can three monks, who may all be laymen, infer the course of the case?"
"have no idea."
"..."
"Um, is it you who don't know or the temporary judges don't know?"
"Do not know at all."
"..."
"So the Questioning Heart Barrier is actually a failed experiment of Emperor Xuan. It has exposed various shortcomings since the day it came out. It didn't take long for Emperor Xuan to seal it himself."
"Sealed? Then where am I standing now?!"
"Oh, I haven't finished yet. It's not that the seal has been in disrepair for a long time. The sealer has been ascending for more than three hundred years and is out of reach, so the seal of the Questioning Heart Barrier has been loosened and broken away in the past few years. The Law Enforcement Hall is financially strapped, and there are few big ones. Yes, but we haven’t had time to repair it yet.”
"..."
Rong Tong really didn't know what expression to show, "Oh, what do you mean, can I just slap my butt and leave?"
"It can't be." Baoqin cruelly shattered her innocent thoughts, "Although Emperor Xuan sealed the question
Barrier, but in fact he did not officially deny the legitimacy of the Questioning Heart Barrier. In other words, the conclusion reached by the internal review of the Questioning Heart Barrier is still legally valid. "
Rong Tong: ...There are too many slots to talk about, and I feel tired and don’t like them anymore.
The familiar fluctuations belonging to the teleportation array came again one after another, and the strong man randomly captured by the Wenxin Barrier...not...Tongjian, finally arrived.
Judge No. 1 was also a female cultivator. She was probably still dressing up when she was forcibly transported. She was holding a pen in her hand and her eyebrows were cleanly shaved. She looked like she was a veteran of makeup all year round. Even though she was caught off guard and transported to an unfamiliar environment in the shape of Master Jue, she just frowned and said "tsk", still holding her skirt and sitting down dignifiedly, took out a bronze mirror from the Qiankun bag, and looked at it as if nothing had happened I touched up my unfinished eyebrows.
Rong Tong didn't know who the other party was for a moment, and was hesitating to say hello when another young man came from the teleportation array. He was wearing trousers and a long sword at his waist. He had a handsome appearance. Surprisingly, Rong Tong recognized him - Jingxu, the eldest disciple of Tai Zhen Yuanjun.
When she was "recuperating" before, it was said that Taizhen Yuanjun, as an elder, was taking care of everything, and it was she who came to visit on her behalf.
"Junior sister Ziguang." Before she could say "I've met senior," the other party had already extended his hand to her very affectionately. Rong Tong understood and politely changed his name and called him "senior brother."
Come on, it seems that the matter will inevitably go to the elders. But the benefits are obvious. Jingxu must stand firmly on her side.
Rong Tong tried to use his spiritual consciousness to communicate with this rare "one of his own" about the upcoming process in advance, but found that all the spiritual consciousness transmitted to him fell into the sea like water and disappeared. The other party also looked troubled, as if he had encountered the same problem.
It seems that private communication between monks is not allowed within the barrier, but there is no problem in contacting people outside the field. I don’t know if it is a bug in this half-finished product...
The fluctuations of the teleportation array shook the sky again, and the last person arrived.
Rong Tong turned his eyes and looked at the third judge who had just arrived. Then he met the eyes of the young man from Lanzhi Yushu. Both of them saw surprise and confusion in the other's eyes.
Very good, another acquaintance.
"Have you met... Sir?" Yao Shifeng Yuji was usually very steady, but he didn't know what to say at this time.
Rong Tong: ...How embarrassing.
