The man wore a wooden mask that completely covered his face, but it didn't hide his aura.
His aura was elegant and restrained, as if it was made by nature.
But it made people feel an unprecedented pressure.
Everyone's expression changed.
"Shadow?!"
"It's really Lord Shadow!"
Other than the elders of the Hall of Justice, only Shadow had the right to speak and the absolute right to punish.
But he was too mysterious. He appeared even less often than the elders.
Danmeng's First Elder was stunned, but he quickly reacted. "Shadow, it's not that we didn't invite the Hall of Justice, but that this is a matter of ancient medicine. There's no need to involve the Hall of Justice.
"Evil doctors harm ancient medicine. Ancient warriors are responsible for protecting ancient medicine. The Hall of Justice is also investigating this matter." Fu Yunshen leaned back in his chair. "Who gave you the right to detain a suspect without the Hall of Justice's permission?"
"…"
The hall was silent.
Fu Yunshen looked up, his expression cold. He smiled. "You sure have guts."
His words were clearly sharp, but no one dared to say anything.
Even Xie Nian kept quiet.
Without a doubt, Shadow was an ancient martial arts grandmaster.
Who among them could beat him?
Whoever had the harder fist had the right.
"Brother Shadow, long time no see." Cheng Jin greeted him. "Why aren't you going to the Martial Arts Union?"
"I don't have time. Don't bother me."
Cheng Jin: "…"
Fu Yunshen raised his chin and looked at the First Elder. "I'm asking you a question."
The First Elder wiped his cold sweat and said nervously, "Shadow, it's definitely not what you think. There's evidence first, and then there's voting."
"Physical evidence can be faked, but how can it be done half-heartedly when it concerns evil doctors?" Fu Yunshen said calmly. "Miss Ying, do you have evidence to prove that you weren't there?"
Ying Zijin looked at him. "Yes."
Yunshan was also wearing a mask. He stood behind Fu Yunshen, trying hard to hold back his laughter.
"Enough, stop pretending. What are you pretending for?" Xie Nian was impatient. "If you really had evidence, would you have been arrested? What were you doing? "
Like Lin Qingjia, he looked pure and noble on the surface, but was dirty on the inside.
She hated people like this.
Fu Yunshen's words put Cheng Jin in a bad mood. She retorted, "Then did you give this lady time to clarify?"
Xie Nian's gaze was cold. "Cheng Jin!"
Lin Qingjia turned her head and smiled. "Miss Xie, don't be agitated. Young Master Cheng is just telling the truth."
Xie Nian's mouth. "Lin Qingjia, shut up. Who do you think you are?"
If she wasn't here, she wouldn't have come.
At this moment, someone knocked on the door.
The Great Elder was afraid that it was another big shot that he couldn't afford to offend, so he quickly went to open the door.
Outside's's's Fu was's''s.
His footsteps were hurried as he placed the computer on the table. "Miss Ying, the computer you requested. The recording has been transferred in."
Everyone was a little surprised when they heard this.
...
Xie Nian looked at the computer and felt disgusted.
The Xie family always rejected all high-tech products from the outside world.
As a direct descendant, she threw away the phone the Xie family gave her.
The other elders who hadn't seen a computer before were stunned.
"Sorry to trouble you." Ying Zijin raised her hand. "Take a look."
It was the guard's first time using a computer. He opened it in a hurry and played the video.
The video showed Ying Zijin's refining room.
Someone's expression changed.
This was the refining room Danmeng had specially prepared for Ying Zijin. Who would install a camera in their room?
The next video showed a man dressed in black walking in with a bag the night before.
He walked around the alchemy room, and finally placed the bag in a very hidden place.
Everyone at the scene was very familiar with this bag. It contained those harmful amulets.
The man looked around for a while, then walked out.
The video ended.
"I told you, someone is trying to frame her." Qiu Man snorted. "Danmeng's' strict investigation failed. Who let the outsider in?"
Big Elder smiled bitterly. "Leader, we don't know."
"Wait a moment." Fu Yunshen's voice was calm. "I sent someone to investigate before I came."
The door opened again.
"Shadow Minister, I've found a body on a barren mountain outside the Alchemy Guild." Yun Wu walked in and knelt on one knee. "Only bones were left of the body. According to the investigation, this body is the person in the video."
Destroy the body.
"Impressive." Xie Nian's eyes turned. He clapped his hands. "Ying Zijin, you're really impressive. You didn't treat your subordinate as a human. You killed him right after you did your job. How cruel. I can't compare to you."
This sentence caused the situation that had been reversed to once again fall into a stalemate.
"That's right." Godly Doctor Gu said arrogantly. "This video can't prove that she's not an evil doctor. In fact, it confirms that she's an evil doctor."
"No, no, no. There's another video." The guard hurriedly said. "Look."
The second video showed Ying Zijin in a bar in the capital last night. She stayed from six in the evening until two in the morning.
"It takes three hours to return to the ancient martial arts world from the capital." Fu Yunshen clasped his hands. "I only look at the evidence, not the person. She was still in the secular world at two in the morning. The autopsy showed that Meng Qingxue died at eleven. How did she come back to kill someone?"
Big Elder was speechless.
Xie Nian sneered. "It's not impossible."
Ying Zijin raised her eyebrows slightly. "Are you going to say that I found someone to impersonate me and gave him my token so that he could kill Meng Qingxue? I deliberately left the token behind so that the ancient medical world could track me down?" “
Xie Nian's expression was gloomy.
That was what she wanted to say.
But logic didn't make sense.
Xie Nian's face burned with embarrassment when he was asked this question in front of so many people.
In extreme embarrassment, she slammed the table and stood up to leave.
"It looks like the Evil Doctor did pick up Miss Ying's token and sneak in to kill her." Cheng Jin asked, "What are the cultivation levels of the guards?"
Meng Xiong said, "Fifty years of ancient martial arts cultivation. That's the highest level in the ancient medical world."
Hearing this, Fu Chen rolled his eyes.
His ancestor had the highest cultivation level in the ancient medical world.
But it was true that few people in the Fu family knew that Fu Xi was an ancient medical practitioner.
"That's right. Miss Ying is an ancient medical practitioner. She doesn't even have ancient martial arts cultivation. How did she sneak in past the guards?" Cheng Jin shrugged. "Evidence alone? Where's your brain?"
Ying Zijin glanced at Cheng Jin.
As the young master of the Martial Alliance and the only disciple of the Alliance Leader, Cheng Jin was naturally talented.
He was twenty-six years old this year. According to the evaluation, his ancient martial arts cultivation level had reached seventy years.
Only when one's ancient martial arts cultivation level reached two hundred years would they be able to return to their original state. They would be able to control themselves freely, just like an ordinary person.
Other ancient warriors could not tell that she had internal energy fluctuations because she had used medicine to cover it up.
"I deeply regret what happened to the ancient medical world," Cheng Jin said. "In the next few days, I will send people from the Martial Alliance to protect your safety. We must capture the Evil Doctor!"
If the ancient medical practitioners were harmed by the Evil Doctor, it would eventually endanger the ancient martial world.
He left with Lin Qingjia.
The others also dispersed.
Ying Zijin smoothed her clothes and stretched out her hand. "Can you give me the token now?"
The First Elder frowned. "Miss Ying, let's make a new token for you. This token was taken from the Evil Doctor. There might be a problem with it."
"There's no need." Ying Zijin looked up. "Don't take so long. I'm afraid you'll be poisoned to death."
The First Elder broke out in a cold sweat. He hurriedly handed the token over. "Miss Ying, you're joking again."
Ying Zijin took the token and left through the door.
Fu Chen was waiting for her outside.
Ying Zijin turned her head. "Did you find anything?"
"This … no." Fu Chen was embarrassed. "The Old Ancestor has been running around outside for two days, but we haven't found any traces."
"I thought you wouldn't be able to find anything. Otherwise, the Evil Doctor would have been eradicated decades ago."
Fu Chen's eyes lit up. He lowered his voice. "Grandmaster, did you do something to the token? Can it help us find the Evil Doctor Commander? "
Ying Zijin raised her eyebrows. "It's rare for you to be so smart. Your hair is so long. Not bad. You deserve praise."
After that, she gave him a perfunctory round of applause.
Fu Chen: "???"
**
Xie family.
Xie Nian's expression was cold as he recounted the events of the meeting to the head of the Xie family.
The head of the Xie family pondered for a long time, then took out a photo. "Nian Nian, is that Ying Zijin you saw her?"
Xie Nian glanced at it casually. "Yes, yes. What about it?"
"It really is her." The head of the Xie family frowned. "To tell you the truth, this is the person the First Elder calculated after reading your brother's fortune. Your brother will only wake up if she marries him."
Xie Nian sneered. "Her? Is she worthy? Why don't you take a look at yourself? Is my brother someone that anyone can marry? "
"That's not the point." The head of the Xie family waved his hand. "I'm wondering if she has anything to do with Ying. The last time Feng 'er was captured, it was Ying who sent people to do it. "
"Father, you're thinking too much." Xie Nian didn't deny it. "In the ancient martial world, strength is everything. Ying even rejected me. Why would he like her?"
Of course she wanted to play with Ying.
However, even though he was tempted, he didn't succeed.
So, she set her sights on Nie Yi.
Xie Nian continued, "Xie Feng deserved to be captured. You didn't find out that she was an ancient doctor. Ancient martial artists attacked an ancient doctor, and the Hall of Justice saw it. Of course we had to do something."
The head of the Xie family thought for a moment. "That's true. Although your brother has improved a lot, he still hasn't woken up. Now that Ying Zijin has a high status in the ancient medicine world, it won't be easy for her to marry your brother."
Ying Zijin's current status was the same as Fu Chen's. She was protected by both the ancient medicine world and the ancient martial world. There was no way to force her.
Ancient martial artists couldn't hurt an ancient doctor.
Xie Nian said calmly, "There's always a way."
She bid farewell to the head of the Xie family and went to the school to practice martial arts.
The head of the Xie family thought for a long time and prepared to discuss this matter with Madam Xie.
**
At night.
Danmeng.
Recently, one thing after another happened. The Evil Doctor had secretly infiltrated Danmeng. Everyone in Danmeng was in a state of panic.
Ying Zijin was in the medicine refining room, sorting the herbs.
Fu Yunshen helped her with the fire. "After this meeting, have you figured out who the culprit is?"
"I've figured it out, and I have evidence." Ying Zijin lowered her head. "I'm 100% sure now. With this identity, it's no wonder he could hide for so long. Even the people around him couldn't tell."
Fu Yunshen nodded. "Should I go?"
"No need." Ying Zijin wiped her hands and stood up. "I'll go take a look."
She left the medicine refining room. Ten minutes later, she arrived in front of a room.
Ying Zijin raised her hand and knocked on the door.
The person in the room said, "Come in."
Ying Zijin went in and closed the door.
The room was quiet.
The person turned around and sighed. "I'm sorry for the meeting today. I didn't expect the Evil Doctor to be so cunning as to frame you."
"When you took my token, you must have checked it carefully to see if I had poisoned it, or if there were other drugs that would expose your identity." Ying Zijin crossed her arms and said calmly, "After all, I only changed the order of the herbs during the winter hunt, and I was able to make a different type of medicine."
"But you didn't find it after the test, so you took it without worry and hung it on your body."
The person's hand paused.
"There were many guards guarding Meng Qingxue. The other Evil Doctors didn't know ancient martial arts, but you practiced ancient martial arts. You could only kill her yourself. In the end, you deliberately let Meng Qingxue grab the token and pretend that you accidentally lost it to frame me."
"You didn't expect me to be caught because of this. You just wanted to divert attention. Of course, it would be better if I was caught."
Ying Zijin lowered her eyelashes and smiled. "But why do you think that? Who gave you the illusion that your ability to make poison is better than mine?"
"Alliance Leader Qiu Man?"
