"Bang!" Lin Mengya mercilessly closed the door of the inner room.
Long Tianhao helplessly leaned against the door and pleaded with his wife in the inner room.
Unfortunately, all of his moves had lost their effectiveness today.
He had no choice but to lie on the soft couch in the outer room.
However, his gaze never left the door.
Lin Mengya did not rest in the inner room either.
She was also carefully sorting out what had happened during this period of time.
From the current situation, the Nanting Market should be the key to the matter.
But the pharmacological knowledge she had was either analyzed by Xiaoyao or decoded from the music score for the green stringed instrument.
Maybe the music score for the green stringed instrument had something to do with the Nanting Market.
But the most important thing now was to prove that she did not have it, otherwise she would become the target of public criticism.
Unexpectedly, the Judgment Elder was more anxious than she had imagined.
The next day, the three men asked to see her again, but they were not as polite as yesterday.
Of course, Long Tianhao would not let her face it alone, so today the Divine Hall was on high alert, and the three men were also aggressive.
Deputy Temple Leader Qin was also stunned.
Yesterday, when he brought them around the hall, the atmosphere was very harmonious.
But now it seemed like they were here to collect a debt?
"Holy Senior, Madam, the Divine Hall and the Ancient Tribe have always minded our own business. But now you have openly killed the people of the Ancient Tribe. Do you really think that the Ancient Tribe has no power to resist? "
It was another elder who spoke.
Elder Mu's face did not look good.
Long Tianhao said in a deep voice, "Elder, you accused the Divine Hall of killing your people. Do you think we are easy to bully? Even if you want to punish us, you have to show evidence, or we will not let you go! "
Long Tianhao's tough attitude calmed the people of the Ancient Tribe.
The Judgment Elder snorted and said, "Humph, if you don't have evidence, how dare you disturb the Temple Leader? Come, bring the bodies of the people of the Ancient Tribe we found here! "
As soon as he finished speaking, the young men who had been following them yesterday carried a few bodies.
Seeing this, Lin Mengya frowned.
She recognized these corpses. They were the ones who had gone crazy before the main event. She had also used these corpses to do some research.
But last night, she had clearly ordered for the guards to be even tighter and not allow anyone to enter without permission. How did these elders find out?
She looked at Long Tianhao in confusion. Long Tianhao also wanted to seek an answer from her.
But now, the two of them had a telepathic connection.
It seemed that they had been tricked again.
Long Tianhao narrowed his eyes slightly.
If it was before he reorganized the Temple, it would not be surprising for Temple to have such a troublesome person appear.
But now, the entire Sanctum should be under his control, and with such an accident happening, he could not help but overthink.
Could it be that "those people" had also made a move?
This possibility made Long Tianhao's heart skip a beat, and he became more cautious about this matter.
If that was the case, then he had to reconsider the impact this matter would have on Temple.
Looking at the corpses that were already covered in livor mortis spots and were about to rot, the three elders' faces were filled with rage.
"Madam, these people were all secretly dealt with by your men, and we intercepted them.
You have to give us an explanation for this. "
She did not ask anyone to deal with these corpses.
It was obvious that someone wanted to intensify the conflict between her and the three elders of the Judgement Sect.
"These corpses were indeed left behind by my men, but my purpose was to find out the real cause of their death, and not to do anything bad with these corpses."
Her eyes were honest, and what she said was the truth.
But the three elders did not agree with her reason.
"If you really want to find out the cause of their death, then forget it. I think you obviously want to obtain the secret of the ancient bloodline!
Back then, you forced us into a desperate situation, so we had no choice but to find a dark place to hide.
Now, after many years of recuperation, our ancient tribe has finally recovered. But because of your greed, you once again set your sights on our people.
Let me tell you, even if I die, I will not allow you to kill my people! "
These words were a torrent of abuse for Lin Mengya.
But she felt really wronged. What secret of the bloodline? She had never heard of it.
How could Long Tianhao stand others scolding his wife like this? He immediately slammed the table.
"I'm only respecting you because of my master. Who would have thought that you would dare to be so disrespectful to my wife? I think there is no need to say anymore. You can leave with your people now, and the Divine Hall will take revenge on you! "
Elder Mao was so angry that he stomped his feet.
"Let's fight, the ancient tribe is not afraid of you!"
Seeing that the negotiation was about to break down, Deputy Temple Leader Qin was also anxious.
At this moment, Lin Mengya said with a cold face, "I have the same opinion as my husband. Originally, I thought that you were here to reason things out, but now I understand that you are here to find a murderer as a scapegoat. Since you have already determined that I am the murderer, then what else is there to say? Just bring it on, the Gong family is never afraid of you. "
"You, you are taking advantage of your power to bully us!"
Although Elder Mao was being held back by the other two elders, he still argued with her with a red face and neck.
Lin Mengya retorted without hesitation.
"Taking advantage of your power to bully us? You really know how to flatter us. If we were really that powerful, we would have thrown you out long ago. "
Elder Mao was not as eloquent as her.
After arguing for a long time, he could only grit his teeth and stare at them.
Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao were determined, and the atmosphere was in a deadlock. Both sides were in a bad mood.
Elder Mao wanted to leave in a huff, but Elder Mu kept stopping him.
"Elder Mao, calm down, don't be so agitated."
Then he said to the couple, "Elder Mao has a bad temper, and he lost his head because of the tragedy of his people. Please be magnanimous and don't be calculative with him. "
Originally, Lin Mengya did not want to be in a deadlock with these stubborn people.
But she knew very well that if she wanted to clear her name, she had to cooperate with them.
She let out a deep breath.
"Elder Mu, we can not be calculative with him, but you'd better ask him to watch his mouth."
Elder Mao still wanted to shout, but Elder Mu quickly signaled with his eyes, insisting another elder to shut his troublemaking mouth immediately.
"Okay, okay, everyone wants to find out the truth. In this case, let's stop quarreling."
Deputy Temple Leader Qin also took the opportunity to smooth things over with Elder Mu.
In any case, both sides were brought back to the negotiation.
On the table.
After this incident, Elder Mu and Vice-Leader Qin began to appreciate each other.
It was really difficult to be a good person.
Elder Mao still sat aside angrily, and from time to time, he would stare at them with daggers.
Although Long Tianhao was angry, he only stared at him coldly for the sake of his wife.
Lin Mengya was really convinced.
How great of a fate must it be for these two childish ghosts to run into each other?
Elder Mu also felt deeply embarrassed, and could only try his best to ignore that good-for-nothing guy.
"Madam, since things have come to this point, I will ask you directly."
"Please go ahead."
"Do you really not have the Nanting Market?"
Facing the urgency and doubt in Elder Mu's eyes, Lin Mengya shook her head cautiously.
"I can confirm that I have never seen the Nanting Market. If it's possible, I would like to ask you what it is. Is it worth mobilizing so many people? "
Elder Mu let out a faint sigh.
"Actually, I've never seen this Nantingji before. It's just that there are ancient records in the clan. The Nantingji records all the unique characteristics and fatal points of the 72 ancient clans. It can be said that controlling the Nantingji is equivalent to controlling the lives of all the ancient clans. It's a matter of life and death, so we have to be cautious. "
Elder Mu's words shocked her a little.
Elder Mu's tone was deep, and she could also hear the fear and anxiety hidden in it.
Imagine if all her lifelines were in the hands of a stranger.
It would be fine if he was an upright and kind person, but if he was an evil person, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"I see. But I have always been curious, how did you know that the Nanting Market is in my hands since the ancient clans and the Divine Temple have no contact? "
"Well …"
Elder Mu hesitated.
"Please forgive me for not being able to tell you about this, Madam."
"Why is that?" Lin Mengya asked in confusion.
"Hmph, if I told you, would you kill me to silence me?" Elder Mao's untimely words made the atmosphere suddenly become colder.
Elder Mu pointed at him resentfully.
"Shut up. Don't you think you have caused enough trouble?"
He then said to her apologetically, "Madam, please don't misunderstand. It's not what Elder Mao said. I promised that person that I would never reveal anything about him to anyone. "
Lin Mengya nodded helplessly.
This person's purpose was probably to shift the focus of the ancient clans to her.
But what good would it do them?
"It's okay. I am a straightforward person. Whether Elder Mu believes it or not, the Nanting Market is indeed not in my hands. I'm afraid you have found the wrong person."
In fact, she wanted to remind Elder Mu that the person who revealed this matter to him might have evil intentions.
But she knew that the person was Elder Mu's benefactor, so she could only stop there.
Elder Mu heaved a heavy sigh.
"Sigh, I believe in Master Gong's character. But the marks on these corpses, Madam, can you give me a suitable reason? "
He should be referring to the various marks left on the corpses when she was doing research on them.
"That's easy, but I would like to ask Elder Mu, do you know that some ancient clans have problems with their bloodline?"
"How do you know?"
