Chapter 91 Chapter 91 Li Baili stretched out her hand and grabbed...
Li Baili stretched out her hand and caught the insect in the palm of her hand. The willow branches on her wrist suddenly grew and quickly produced a new section of tender green willow branches, weaving out a small green cage. At first glance, it looked like a very delicate, miniature bird cage.
The insect was trapped in a cage made of willow twigs. It could only buzz around and fly around like a headless fly, but it couldn't get out no matter what it did.
The insect was so anxious that its voice turned into a sharp buzzing sound. It bumped its head against the edge of the willow branch, put its eyes close to the gap, rolled its eyeballs, and shouted to Li Baili, "Please spare my life, sir!"
Li Baili closed his hands, the cage became smaller and darker, the buzzing sound of the insects inside suddenly became much fainter, he raised his eyes and looked at the black beard opposite him.
The smile on Blackbeard's face froze for a moment, his eyes darted around, and he looked a little overwhelmed. He was trying hard to think of the lines to explain his response, but he still felt nervous.
"What did this bug say to you before?" Li Baili asked Blackbeard.
Blackbeard shook his head subconsciously, trying to hide it from them: "Nothing, nothing."
Li Hanshuang looked at him with a half-smile and reminded him coldly, "Think about it carefully. If there really isn't anything, that would be the best. But if there really is, then what you say now would be a lie.
He deceived the leader of Penglai Sect, concealed the whereabouts of the sealed person, communicated with the sealed person in private, and said something secretly. Perhaps he was planning to subvert Penglai.
Tell me, if others knew this, how would they look at you? How would you deal with it? I won't cover up anything for you. Think about it, then what do you say? "
Blackbeard gritted his teeth, his expression became complicated, he sighed, hesitated, frowned, his face turned black and green, and he said slowly: "This bug told me some things about you after it found me."
He paused for a moment, not sure if he was adding something, or trying to cover up something, or was deliberately reminding: "The Sword Immortal and the demon reincarnation are things from the past. You should know it now."
Li Baili and Li Hanshuang looked at each other. They were confused at first, but after hearing what he said, they suddenly understood everything.
What he heard from the bug should be what he saw from the sealed person who escaped the seal when Li Baili and Li Hanshuang stopped fighting in the sky on the day of the banquet and were dealing with the seal.
The reason why he was reluctant to say it immediately was because he felt that it was not good to tell these hearsay stories to the person involved, and it was even more difficult to say since he might not believe it.
Li Baili nodded and took a look at the thing in her hand, which looked like a hollow ball made of willow branches. The willow branches broke with a snap, and the small ball was separated.
Li Baili threw the ball to Blackbeard, and Li Hanshuang said to him with a half-smile: "Take this thing and go to where you should go. After completing the process, have someone go with you to send the sealed person in this ball back to the original sealed place. Is that ok?"
Blackbeard blinked his eyes and held the ball. Suddenly, he felt that it was a little hot, as if he was holding a piece of charcoal. It looked black on the surface, but it was actually burning, with sparks flickering in the cracks.
He hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "I'll do it."
"That's good," Li Hanshuang nodded and smiled, "But we're worried about you going alone. We have time now, why don't you go together?"
Blackbeard was stunned for a moment before realizing that they gave him the ball with the bug in it not because they trusted him, but just wanted to test him.
If he and the bug had reached some secret deal that could not be turned back, he would probably try to let the bug go on the way to avoid suffering even greater losses.
But if not, just being with Li Baili and Li Hanshuangtou, and holding an extra ball with a sealed person in his hand, it wouldn’t be a big deal.
Blackbeard nodded with mixed feelings, but suddenly felt relieved. He had targeted Li Hanshuang before, and it was reasonable for Li Hanshuang not to believe him.
What's more, with Li Hanshuang's identity, there is no harm in being cautious. As long as there is time, theoretically, he can do anything in Penglai. Just taking a walk along the way is already a nice statement.
After they finished their conversation, Blackbeard walked out with the ball. Li Hanshuang and Li Baili followed him on the left and right, lagging behind him by a little over half a step.
This is a very suitable distance to prevent him from escaping and attacking others at any time.
Blackbeard felt a little bit amused and wanted to say that it shouldn't be that serious, but then he changed his mind and felt that his words really didn't seem to be convincing. In that case, there was nothing more to say.
The fox approached Li Baili cautiously on the road and asked in a very low voice: "Am I still going to die? Now that the bug has been found! Can I redeem myself from my crime by doing meritorious service? This should be considered good behavior, right?"
When the fox is silent, everything is quiet. But as soon as the fox opens his mouth, the surroundings suddenly become noisy.
Li Baili blinked her eyes, looked at Fox, smiled and said, "You performed well. You have made meritorious contributions while serving your sentence. However, we have to wait until the evidence is collected and the trial is over before we can determine the result. Don't be impatient."
"In other words," the fox was stunned for a moment, hesitant, and couldn't help but lift his feet, as if he wanted to kick something, but had to swallow his anger and asked in a very low voice, "You actually don't have the right to judge me and deal with me?"
Li Baili shook her head and said with a smile, "No, theoretically, he and I have all the rights to judge and deal with you, but since we are in Penglai, it would be bad if we were to stay the same as outside. Wouldn't that mean we came here in vain? Penglai is a very polite place."
Li Baili laughed, and her laughter was strange, mixed with a hint of coldness.
Li Hanshuang nodded in agreement, her eyes curved, "We follow the rules where there are rules, and of course we don't follow the rules where there are no rules."
Blackbeard shuddered as he walked in front, feeling that listening to them talk was as eerie and terrifying as if he had accidentally overheard a villain plotting to destroy the world.
Obviously, they didn't lower their voices deliberately when they spoke, and their tone was still gentle. They were not in a state of anger, nor were they dissatisfied. However, Blackbeard just felt that something was weird.
He tried to tighten his clothes to try to keep himself warm, but it was of no use. All he could say was that this action was better than nothing for him.
It provides psychological comfort.
The fox thought he had found a loophole and could escape, but he didn't expect that after hearing what Li Baili and Li Hanshuang said, Blackbeard didn't refute at all, and was even unwilling to look back.
When the fox saw this situation, he knew that there was no hope for him to escape, because he had no chance of winning either in terms of strength or rules, so he had to continue waiting.
The fox frowned tightly, curled up his tail, and finally, helplessly, he sighed, and his ears drooped down, almost sticking to his forehead.
The whole fox looked listless, as if it had accidentally fallen into a puddle of water and was covered in mud. It was unable to breathe and was not clean at all. It looked like it was about to die.
As everyone strolled leisurely, they unknowingly almost reached the door of the Law Enforcement Hall.
Blackbeard suddenly became a little nervous. Holding the ball in his hand, he looked around. Although he did not look directly at Li Baili and Li Hanshuang, he glanced at them out of the corner of his eye.
Li Baili felt that he had something to say, so she raised her eyebrows and asked with a smile, "What's the matter?"
You wouldn't suddenly regret it and want to run away at this point, would you? It's too late now! Even if we don't catch you, the people inside won't just watch you run away and let you run away.
Blackbeard hesitated and finally whispered, "Do you mind?"
An expression of embarrassment and slight awkwardness flashed across his face, and he gave Li Hanshuang and Li Baili a subtle smile that you should understand.
Li Baili thought about it and understood.
What Blackbeard meant was that, although the things that Bug told him might not be true, if they were really spread out, people would probably think they might be true.
Not many people know about it now, so it is easier to control. If it is recorded as evidence, too many people may know about it, and something bad may happen.
After all, among the things that Chongzi said, not many are related to ordinary people. The two most closely related are the leader of Penglai Sect and the Demon Lord. No matter what, they are not existences that can be easily ignored.
In addition, although the story takes place a long time ago, the protagonist is right in front of us and can be seen at any time. It is hard for people to think that it must be completely fake, so we have to be on guard.
Li Baili looked at Li Hanshuang.
Li Hanshuang thought about it and decided it didn’t matter: “We can tell everyone with certainty that everything Chongzi said is false, so just hand over the evidence.”
He laughed slowly, with a bit of curiosity: "I really want to know what will happen."
Blackbeard frowned and looked bitter, trying to give some advice.
This kind of thing is not something you want to know! Do you want to reconsider it?
Li Baihe smiled and said, "If we ourselves have to hide things, how can others think like us that those things must be false after accidentally finding out about them?"
Blackbeard felt helpless and speechless for a moment.
If you don't cover up, they won't necessarily think that these things are false.
Li Baihe said thoughtfully: "I remember that the trial in the Law Enforcement Hall requires sufficient evidence. It is better to hand it over to avoid being suspected of doing something shameful."
Blackbeard listened and suddenly became confused: How could the Demon Lord know the situation in Penglai Island's Law Enforcement Hall?
