In the ancient alchemy courtyard, in a side hall, four of the eight elders of the alchemy alliance appeared here at the same time.
A round table with five figures, four of whom are old people.
Fang Lin's master, Mr. Tiankuisu, was prominently among them, with a cold expression and a bit of anger in his eyes.
Tian Hongsu Lao and Tianjun Su Lao were sitting on both sides of Tian Kui Su Lao. Their expressions were relatively calm, and they could not tell whether they were happy or angry.
Another old man with short hair has a resolute face and a calm expression. Although he is also an old man, he seems to be more energetic than the other three elders.
This short-haired old man is naturally Tiangang Su Lao.
The eight Su Lao, except Tianlan Su Lao who is far away in Qihai, the other seven are all in the Nine Kingdoms. At this moment, four Su Lao have appeared in a side hall of Gudanyuan.
There are very few occasions where four Su Lao can appear together. At least in recent years, four Su Lao have not appeared at the same time. The most common time is that three Su Lao have appeared at the same time.
And beside Tiangang Su Lao, there was another person sitting.
This is a middle-aged man with a thin body and pale complexion. He is wearing a thin gray gown and looks quite frail sitting there.
Even among ordinary people, this person is very inconspicuous, but at this moment he can sit in the ancient alchemy courtyard and sit at the same table with several elders.
Few people in the Dan League knew this thin, middle-aged man, but anyone who knew him would be in awe of him.
This person's status in the Dan Alliance is only slightly lower than that of the Eight Great Elders, and is above any senior members of the Dan Alliance.
He is the master of the Supervisory Palace, Situ Zheng. He sits in the huge Supervisory Palace, controls all the supervisory envoys, and has the right to exercise supervision and judgment over the Dan League.
It can be said that the most feared thing among all the alchemists in the entire Alchemy Alliance is the Supervisory Hall, and as long as this Supervisory Palace Master is mentioned by people in the Alchemy Alliance, they will feel terrified in their hearts, for fear of violating some taboos.
At this moment, Situ Zheng and the four elders were sitting at a table. Although they had not spoken to each other yet, the atmosphere on the table seemed very solemn.
Situ Zheng looked at his nose and heart, his hands crossed in his sleeves, his eyelids drooped slightly, he looked very lethargic, a bit like an old man who was sleepy in winter.
Even though the supervisory hall master does not seem to be very old, he is actually very old. He is the same generation as the elders. He has only taken the Zhuyan Pill, so his appearance remains that of a man in his forties. look.
Elder Tiankui has been watching Situ Zheng, trying to see some subtle changes in this gloomy guy's face.
It's a pity that Situ Zheng is famous for his expressionless face. He always has the same expression when he encounters anything.
People who didn't know better thought that Situ Zheng had been poisoned by some kind of poison, so his face remained stiff all the time.
Some people also say that if the Supervisory Palace Master shows any other expression, it is time to show the wrath of thunder.
"The demons of the Long family are committing crimes everywhere, and several alchemy families have been severely damaged. Since Fang Lin may be related to the demons of the Long family, we must investigate." Elder Tiangang said, his voice calm, as if he was telling A very common thing.
Elder Tiankui snorted softly: "Who can prove it? Fang Lin is related to the demon of the Long family? Is it just because of a few ridiculous rumors?"
"That doesn't prove that Fang Lin has nothing to do with the demons of the Long family. Whether there is a relationship can only be determined through investigation and interrogation." Elder Tiangang didn't give in, and he just wanted to confront Elder Tiankui.
At this time, Mr. Tian Hongsu, who was sitting aside, said: "Fang Lin was supporting it alone and doing his best to maintain the formation. I saw it with my own eyes. If he was really related to the demon of the Long family, how could he do this? Something?"
Tiangang Su Lao frowned slightly: "Perhaps he had nothing to do with the Demon of the Long Family at that time, but who knows what happened after that?"
"Tiangang is right. The demons of the Long family are committing murders everywhere. If they are not subdued in time, we don't know how many people will suffer. Fang Lin may have clues worth looking at. Why not interrogate him?" Situ Zheng finally said It's time to speak.
"I can tell you that Fang Lin fell into the Devil's Fall Cliff because he was seriously injured. He returned to the Dan League after recovering from his injuries. He has nothing to do with the demons of the Long family." Elder Tiankuisu said in a serious tone.
Hearing this, Tiangang Su Lao and Situ Zheng were both a little surprised, but they didn't know this.
"Tiankui, is what you said the explanation Fang Lin gave you? Or is it the result of your own investigation? Or is it the excuse you said for Fang Lin?" Situ Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly and asked calmly.
Tian Kuisu's eyes were even more unkind: "This is naturally the result of my investigation."
"Oh? Can you tell me the details of your investigation? Let me also understand the whole story." Situ Zheng asked, with the same expression on his face that has not changed for thousands of years.
Elder Tian Kuisu looked as usual: "I can tell you whatever you want to know. There is no need to start with Fang Lin."
Situ Zheng shook his head: "Fang Lin still needs to be investigated and interrogated. I have been paying attention to this guy for a long time. He has always been a topic of conversation. Although he is your disciple of Tiankui, there is no guarantee that this guy will not have problems. It is better to be careful." It’s better to look it up.”
Tiankui Sulao was a little angry. After talking for a long time, this guy still wanted to check Fang Lin. It was obvious that he couldn't live with him.
But for this Situ Zheng, Tiankui Su Lao really has no way to deal with him. He is the supervising hall master and has such rights. Fang Lin is not Su Lao, nor is he a big shot. He is just a palace master. What can't be investigated? of
What's more, Situ Zheng, the master of the supervisory hall, personally wants to investigate and interrogate you, and the reason is very good. He thinks that you, Fang Lin, are suspected, and wants to investigate you. If you don't let me investigate, are you feeling guilty
This is very troublesome.
It stands to reason that if Fang Lin is allowed to undergo interrogation and investigation, he will be freed himself, and he has nothing to fear.
But the problem is that once Fang Lin is asked to accept the investigation and interrogation of the Supervisory Hall, there is no guarantee that no one will interfere with it. The twists and turns are very complicated. After all, it is difficult for Mr. Tiankui to take care of the Supervisory Hall and cannot take full consideration of it. .
The situation was very unfavorable for Fang Lin. Even if Mr. Tian Kuisu stood up, he could not give Fang Lin enough reasons not to accept the investigation.
Just because Fang Lin is your disciple, Mr. Tiankuisu, cannot completely escape the scope of authority of the Supervisory Hall. That would be too lawless.
"Ahem, they say those things outside are done by demons from the Long family, so why not let the people from the Long family come over and listen to their side of the story?" At this moment, Elder Tianjun who had never spoken said suddenly. .
