Chapter 288 on the Holy School
Meng Sansi didn't expect that the other party would ask such a question, and he was a little stunned for a moment. However, he soon came to his senses and thought to himself that the other party first asked the proportion of spiritual stone refining. Obviously, he wanted to play a digital trick with himself, thinking that it was impossible for Hang Chufeng to see the number of return elixir in his storage bag. He reported it wrong, so he would deny himself.
"Hmm! Do you still want to get me around with this little trick?" He couldn't help sneering.
Immediately, he pretended to think about it and said, "You are stealing mineral veins. How can I be so clear?"
"Oh, it's not clear, that's right." Deng Xi smiled and said, "However, there must be an approximate number, whether it is the amount of ten or eight or three or four hundred, right? Otherwise, how can the teachers know that you are not talking nonsense?
Zhao Chengmin also said, "Yes, although it is difficult to distinguish the specific quantity from the vein, there should always be a rough number."
"Hey..." Meng Sansi smiled proudly and said, "Teng Yu, you just want to ask me, don't you think too much?"
He recalled the number of elixir in Hang Chufeng and Deng Xi's storage bag. After careful calculation for a moment, he said, "It's hard to say, but there is always a loss of 6,000 or 7,000."
Hearing him say this number, Deng Xi opened his eyebrows and smiled faintly: "The master of Meng Meng's calculation is still quite fast. Even if the return elixir in my hand is so fast, how many spiritual stones are needed to be refined. Are you sure there is nothing wrong with the calculation?"
Meng Sansi's eyes were slightly **: "Teng Yu, don't talk here. Of course, I won't remember correctly. Both veins are missing a large piece. Even if there is a difference, there will be no more than one or two hundred. Say, where did your two or three hundred elixir come from?
As soon as his words fell, He Zhixin on the stage said without missing the opportunity, "Oh? Are there two or three hundred so many? This really needs a lot of spiritual stones.
When he said this, Meng Sansi was even more emotional. He took a step and shouted in a low voice, "Say, how do you explain it?"
Those disciples of the Chudao League who carried Hang Chufeng in also surrounded them, forming a strong sense of oppression.
For a moment, everyone's eyes were on Deng Xi. Even Zhao Chengmin and Chai Jiang showed suspicion.
"How much is it?" Chai Jiang asked.
Deng Xi smiled calmly: "There are so many words back to Uncle Chai."
"How on earth did that come from?" Chai Jiang frowned.
At this time, Deng Xi suddenly shook his head and said hesitantly, "I'm also thinking about two or three hundred elixirs. If I dug so many spiritual stones from Tianshi Mountain ten days ago, how long will it take to refine one and a half elixirs on this day to refine all these elixirs? It doesn't seem to be enough time. Do I have to go back to practice for another year and a half?
"Hmm?"
As soon as this came out, almost everyone present was shocked.
In particular, Meng Sansi's pores exploded. Looking at Deng Xi's smiling appearance, he couldn't help screaming in his heart: "Time, I didn't even think of the problem of alchemy time! How could I ignore such an important question?
Then, he suddenly understood: "It was this boy who was misleading me. He deliberately asked the conversion ratio of Chaijiang Lingshi alchemy, which was the amount of diverting my attention and ignored the time!" Damn, how could I be so low-level?
For a moment, he couldn't help rushing up in anger, opened his eyes, and took a few breaths hard before forcibly suppressing his emotions.
"Ha ha, Meng Mengzhu, look, is my spiritual elixir still refined from the spiritual stone of Tianshi Mountain?"
Meng Sansi was speechy for a moment. After gritting his teeth and sneering a few times, he said hatefully, "Who knows? Maybe what about your more advanced alchemy furnace?
Deng Xi opened his hands without hesitation and said to Zhao Chengmin, "Please search my body, and please search my residence."
"No." Zhao Chengmin said, "The Huiling elixir is unique. No matter how good the alchemy furnace is, it can only improve the speed a little, and if you use a high-level tripod furnace, it will be refined into Huishen elixir. Therefore, in any case, it is impossible to refine six or seven thousand spiritual stones into elixirs within a few days by relying on the alchemy furnace of the four of them.
"This!"
Meng Sansi was choked in an instant.
But Deng Xi shrugged his shoulders helplessly: "Lord Meng, I just specifically asked you if you remember correctly, and you still swear that you are right. So can we conclude that you are lying and maliciously framing?
When he said the last sentence, Deng Xi's tone suddenly rose and he drank harshly.
"I." Meng Sansi was so depressed that he couldn't even say a word. He couldn't help looking up at He Zhixin on the upper level.
He Zhixin shook his head slightly with an unhappy face, as if he was very dissatisfied with his performance.
Meng Sansi gritted his teeth at this time, took a deep breath, and suddenly turned his head and sneered at Deng Xi: "Even if I remember wrong, there are not so many spiritual stones stolen, but where did you come from so many elixirs? You can't explain this."
Deng Xi raised his eyebrows: "What does this have to do with you? Does the college still have to interfere with how many treasure resources the disciples have? Even if you have to take care of it, can you still represent the college? You are just the leader of a gang organized privately. You usually bully other brothers, occupy the spiritual stone vein, force everyone to be exploited by you, and provide 70% of the money? What's the difference between you and robbing? At this rate, you have been the leader of the alliance for two years, and you should have collected a thousand elixir. Why don't you want to leave the position of hegemony? Don't you just want to grab a little more? Fortunately, after becoming an official disciple, you can practice faster than others?
He spoke faster and faster, and he forced Meng Sansi to say, "What do you mean by this private fight? Does anyone believe this? I'm afraid none of the teachers here will believe it, right? First framed, and then find more than a dozen people around us. It is clear that they want to kill us. Will we take action first? Are we idiots or fools? Meng Sansi, this time you are throwing a stone and hitting yourself in the foot, waiting to be punished.
With that, he turned around and walked back to Fang Yitong and others.
At this moment, all three of them have smiled and can't help laughing.
"Meng Sansi, you're done this time!" They coaxed in unison.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Chengmin and Chai Jiang couldn't help showing an imperceptible smile.
"Well, now that the matter is clear, Meng Sansi, do you have anything else to say?" Zhao Chengmin said
Meng Sansi didn't expect that he had taken over as the leader of the Chudao League and had been doing well, but he had such a big fall today. He really underestimated this Tengyu.
However, he is far from desperate. After peeking at He Zhixin on the imperial steps, he raised his eyebrows again and said, "Teng Yu, you are really a demagogic guy. Unfortunately, you don't know the rules of Dadao College at all. After saying it for a long time, it's useless nonsense!"
Deng Xi smiled and said, "Oh? What else do you have to say?
Meng Sansi took a deep breath: "Do you think what you said can make me guilty? Do you know? The rules of the college do not prohibit disciples from competing with each other for spiritual stones at all. As long as they don't do it in the college, they don't care if they kill people. Therefore, it is allowed by the college to form an alliance to protect ourselves and protect our own interests. Otherwise, why do you think the First Taoist League can exist for so long? As for how we allocate resources internally, the college never interferes. It is natural for those who can get more.
Yes, I misremembered the number of spirit stones lost. I wronged you. So what? It's not a matter of the college, and you take action first at the gate of the college is common sight. Even if you spit out a lotus flower, you can't change this fact! Take the initiative to provoke a private fight in the college, but you will be expelled from the college.
After Meng Sansi said this, he couldn't help laughing. After being suppressed for a long time, his mood rose again. The disciples of the First Taoist League behind him were also refreshed.
"What? Is there such a thing? Deng Xi frowned and looked back at Zhao Chengmin.
Withining Zhao Chengmin's answer, He Zhixin on the high rank has laughed and said, "Yes, our Avenue College encourages disciples to compete with each other, as long as they don't mess up the order in the college. So, Zhao Jianxue, don't involve too many other things. Let's solve yesterday's private fight.
Dun Hee suddenly opened his eyes: "Is there such a rule? Isn't this deliberately favoring these villains?"
"Hmm?" He Zhixin's face darkened: "Teng Yu, are you delusional of the House rules?" While talking, his eyes condensed, and a strong aura bombarded and pressed on Deng Xi's body in an instant, making his heart suffocate and almost breathless.
"Disciples dare not!" Deng Xi gritted his teeth and raised his head: "But..."
"But what?" Meng Sansi shouted loudly, "It's useless to say anything. There are so many people here who testify that you do it first. Why do you still make sophistry?"
Deng Xi glanced at him coldly, and then turned to Zhao Chengmin and said, "Uncle Zhao, can such a witness procured by the party count?"
Zhao Chengmin thought for a moment, and then shook his head and said, "If it is indeed a person from the first Taoist League, the testimony is not enough."
Deng Xi was about to open his mouth, but he heard He Zhixin say again: "Zhao Jianxue is right, but..."
He turned his head and swept at the disciples at the door: "Are you really from the Chudao League?"
As soon as this statement came out, Deng Xi looked angrily. Isn't it obvious to make a ladder for the other party? How can the other party admit it? If you are so biased, why do you need to make such a public trial? It's a direct punishment.
Sure enough, those people immediately shouted.
"No, I'm not from the Chudao League."
"I'm just passing by, and it has nothing to do with the Chudao League."
โ......โ
Meng Sansi grinned, looked at Deng Xi happily, and whispered, "Brother Teng, how about it? Do you admit defeat?
"All right." He Zhixin said, "Zhao Jianxue, it seems that they should not be from the Chudao League, so the testimony should be valid. Don't you think so?"
When Zhao Chengmin heard this, he also lowered his head and sighed. Then he raised his head and shook his head helplessly at Deng Xi. He also understood the meaning. There was nothing he could do.
"Uncle Zhao, do you think it's time to be sentenced?" Meng Sansi said with a smile.
