Chapter 22 The Cat is in Solitary Confinement
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The rough sound of knocking on the door broke the silence of the courtyard.
Bai Qingchen frowned. He only knew a handful of people here and had never made enemies with anyone.
But it was obvious that the person outside the door was not friendly, so he got up and went out.
There were four monks wearing inner sect disciple uniforms standing in the yard, with obvious hostility.
"Are you that loser named Bai?" a gruff voice barked impatiently, "What are you dawdling about? Do you still need the brothers to treat you?"
Bai Qingchen's eyes were slightly cold, he didn't recognize the people in front of him.
He took a deep breath and said calmly, "I wonder what you brothers want to talk to me about?"
At this time, Lin Feng heard the noise outside and walked out, and saw a group of people surrounding Bai Qingchen aggressively.
Without saying a word, he walked forward, protecting Bai Qingchen behind him, like a hen protecting her chicks, and looked at the four people vigilantly.
"Isn't it okay if I can't find you?"
Wang Mang said arrogantly, "I heard you're very arrogant. We, the brothers, are kind-hearted and have come to teach you what the rules are!"
"If a disciple commits a crime, the Law Enforcement Hall will handle it. It's probably against the rules for you, the senior brothers, to teach him privately!"
Lin Feng knew what these people were thinking at a glance. They just thought that their new disciples were easy to control.
"Brother, you are too kind. I am new here and I strictly abide by the sect rules. I don't know why you call me arrogant."
"Hmph! You sharp-tongued brat, today the brothers want to teach you a lesson, so you have to accept it obediently."
Seeing that the situation was not good, Bai Qingchen glanced at a errand disciple in the courtyard.
This is Li Shi, an outer disciple who is in charge of cleaning their courtyard. He is currently sweeping up dead leaves in the corner, glancing over here from time to time.
Bai Qingchen approached Li Shi calmly and quickly stuffed a bottle of Qi-recovering pills into his hand.
He lowered his voice and spoke quickly, "I'd like to ask this senior brother to go find Deacon Liu from the Law Enforcement Hall and tell him that there's been a private fight at the residence of the new disciples."
Li Shi was stunned for a moment, then stuffed the pill into his arms, with a smile on his face: "Of course I should."
The air was filled with a burning smell that could ignite at any moment.
Just then.
"Ouch, my stomach hurts!"
The tense atmosphere was broken by the sudden sound of fart.
Li Shi covered his stomach and cried out, as if he couldn't hold it in any longer.
While shouting "toilet", he rushed out of the yard.
Wang Mang pinched his nose, looking disgusted: "Waste is waste, get out of here!"
Bai Qingchen breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Li Shi disappear from his sight.
"I wonder how I, the senior brothers, could give me some advice?" Bai Qingchen lowered his eyes, speaking in a flat tone, as if he didn't hear the other party's sarcasm.
"Why waste your time talking to him!" Another short and strong disciple rolled up his sleeves impatiently.
"Brother Wang, just destroy him."
The last sentence completely tore off the disguise.
Wang Mang laughed grimly, "Did you hear that? Boy, if you want to blame someone, blame yourself for offending someone you shouldn't have offended!"
Before he finished speaking, his big hand like a palm-leaf fan, with a whistling sound, suddenly grabbed Bai Qingchen's chest.
This claw contains spiritual power. If it grabs firmly, it will at least cause serious injuries.
Bai Qingchen was prepared. He misstepped and narrowly avoided the attack.
His body slid towards the corner of the house like a swimming fish, while his hands quickly made hand gestures!
"Trapped!" With a low shout, several imperceptible threads of spiritual power instantly popped out from the hidden corners of the ground and walls.
It wrapped around Wang Mang and the other three like a living thing. This was a simple binding formation he had secretly set up while he was talking to delay time.
Wang Mang didn't expect that this loser would react so quickly and also had hidden formation techniques.
Caught off guard, he was tightly entangled by the spiritual power thread, his body suddenly froze, and his grabbing hand fell into nothing.
"Damn it! You still dare to resist!" Wang Mang was shocked and angry. His spiritual power burst out and instantly broke the silk threads on his body.
But during this delay, Bai Qingchen had already retreated to the wall and kept some distance between them.
"Let's attack together! Kill him!" Wang Mang roared.
The other three also reacted, drew out their magic weapons, and rushed forward with murderous eyes!
"If you want to touch Brother Bai, you have to get past me, Lin Feng!"
Lin Feng drew out Jing Lei and also went forward to meet it.
For a while, there was a fierce fight in the yard.
"stop!!"
A majestic roar exploded outside the door like thunder.
Immediately afterwards, a sharp sword energy broke through the air, and with a few crisp clang sounds, it accurately knocked down the weapons in the hands of everyone present.
At the door, there stood a middle-aged monk wearing the dark blue uniform of the Law Enforcement Hall. He had a stern face and eyes like lightning. It was Deacon Liu from the Law Enforcement Hall!
"Gathering to fight, breaking into the residence of fellow disciples with the intention of hurting people! How dare you!" Deacon Liu's eyes were like knives, sweeping over Wang Mang and the other three, and finally falling on Lin Feng and Bai Qingchen who looked a little embarrassed.
Wang Mang and the other three turned pale instantly.
The person from the Law Enforcement Hall is Deacon Liu, who is known for his impartiality!
"Liu...Deacon Liu! It was Bai Qingchen who provoked us first!" The tall and thin man tried to confuse right and wrong.
"Shut up!" Deacon Liu interrupted sternly. "I saw it with my own eyes. You guys were fighting with weapons. You still dare to quibble? I'll arrest you all!"
The two law enforcement disciples behind him immediately stepped forward and without saying anything, tied up Wang Mang and the other three tightly with specially made soul-binding chains.
The four of them looked ashen, knowing that they were in trouble.
Deacon Liu then looked at Bai Qingchen and Lin Feng. "Although you two were forced to defend yourself, you were ultimately involved in a private fight. According to sect law, anyone involved in a private fight will be imprisoned for ten days. Do you have any objections?"
Bai Qingchen bowed calmly: "Disciple has no objection and is willing to accept the punishment."
Lin Feng also replied: "Disciple is willing to accept the punishment."
"Yeah." Deacon Liu nodded, quite satisfied with their attitude.
The group was taken away by the Law Enforcement Hall, leaving behind a mess in the yard.
"Lin Feng, it's my fault that I have implicated you." Bai Qingchen whispered.
"Hey! What's the point of talking about getting involved or not? We're all brothers! I'll put you in solitary confinement, it'll give you some peace and quiet!"
Lin Feng put his arm around Bai Qingchen's shoulder, looked nonchalant, and followed the law enforcement disciples out.
Bai Qingchen and Lin Feng were passive participants and only needed to stay in the Cliff of Repentance for ten days.
Wang Mang and his men were lawless. Instead of setting a good example as their senior brothers, they took the lead in provoking and fighting. They faced punishment in the Law Enforcement Hall and one month of confinement.
Bai Qingchen sat cross-legged in the dark confinement room, feeling the coolness beneath his body.
He couldn't figure out who had instigated Wang Mang and others to cause trouble for him, and why they were so brutal and targeted his vital points.
It was obvious that they were here to take his life. Those four people had great skills but were extremely stupid. They were probably being used as pawns and didn't realize anything was wrong.
Without thinking too much, Lingxiao Sect’s spiritual energy is inherently more abundant than that of the outside world, not to mention that this is the main peak of the inner courtyard.
He held his breath and concentrated on practicing the Taixu Yanxing Jue, and the jade pendant formation was also taking effect.
He carefully guided the spiritual power to circulate in his dantian, and recently he felt that his realm had loosened.
Although the confinement room is small and dark, it is safe enough. Now is a good time to break through to the seventh level of Qi Refining.
At this moment, he was in a cave in Liuyun Peak.
A young monk in gorgeous clothes is enjoying a cup of tea.
"How's the Wang Mang incident going?" He said lazily, holding a cup of tea and swaying slowly.
His eyes glanced at the monk standing nearby.
"Replying to Senior Brother, Wang Mang, the other four, and Bai Qingchen have all been taken away by the Law Enforcement Hall and are now in solitary confinement."
With a bang!
The teacup shattered, and the young monk's breath instantly turned cold.
"He's more of a hindrance than a help. He can't even handle such a small matter."
He said calmly, "You know what to do now. I don't want my name to be uttered from Wang Mang's mouth."
"yes."
The monk went out respectfully.
Looking at the mess of tea scattered all over the floor, the young monk said sinisterly, "I'll let you live a good life for a few days. If you touch someone you shouldn't touch, you will pay the price."
