Chapter 1147 You dare to hit me? !
This is pure bluffing.
Everyone just thought it was funny and didn't say anything. Since Jiang Lianzhu was doing it for them, they were happy to watch the show.
"How could this happen?"
Xia Zhilan was shocked. She looked at the others and said, "That's impossible! Even if you've seen them, they wouldn't admit to framing you, right? They act in secret, so they won't reveal themselves. This incident doesn't mean anything. Even if you call them in for a confrontation, it's useless!"
In her opinion, how could a person like Elder He be called by Jiang Lianzhu to testify?
In the secular world, the emperor would personally welcome such an elder from a big sect!
It’s like a high-ranking official in the imperial court, would he testify for an ordinary citizen?
Even if this commoner were replaced by a county official, it would be a dream!
What qualifications does Jiang Lianzhu have?
As for that sarcastic woman, Tan Lingxiu, don't count on her.
Jiang Lianzhu secretly praised Xia Zhilan in her heart, thinking that she was quite smart.
But it's just a little cleverness.
It was indeed impossible for her to go specifically to find someone like Elder He.
But she had plenty of ways to deal with her.
"Going to Elder He, how much trouble would that be? You may not understand, but in my branch of witchcraft, there's a divination technique. Just give me a strand of hair, and I can tell you if you did it."
Xia Zhilan was shocked.
She had heard of the Wu Clan, but they had not appeared in the world for a long time. She really didn't know what kind of magic they knew. Even if she had heard of divination, how could she connect it with Jiang Lianzhu at that moment?
She couldn't help but take a step back and said:
"Don't even think about it! Why should I give you a hair for no reason? Maybe you're going to do something bad with my hair?"
Jiang Lianzhu:
"You can watch me cast the spell in front of everyone. And if you feel anything unwell during the process, you can stop at any time."
Xia Zhilan flatly refused.
"No! Why should you use my body to cast a spell? Even if it's just a strand of my hair, it's mine. I don't want to give it to you. You'd better give up on this idea!"
Jiang Lianzhu was not annoyed,
"Okay, since you don't want to, let's try something else. You might not know this, but I'm a pharmacist. I've developed a pill that can make people tell the truth. All you have to do is swallow it, and then you'll answer whatever we ask you. Guaranteed sincerity! There's no need for any spells, it's incredibly simple. How about it?"
"I don't want it!"
Xia Zhilan screamed and her face turned pale.
"I won't eat your food! Who knows what you're going to give me? I'm fine, what if I get sick from your medicine?"
Jiang Lianzhu said kindly:
"Don't worry, my medicine has been proven by many people and is absolutely effective. It has no side effects. I can guarantee this to you and your brother as well."
Xia Zhilan was even more unwilling.
"No! No matter how much you talk, I don't believe you and I won't eat it!"
Jiang Lianzhu still did not look angry at all, and continued:
"You can't do this, and you can't do that. This is not good! But don't worry, I have something else, a hand-me-down from my ancestors. I call it a stethoscope. Just hold it close to your chest and I can tell whether you are telling the truth or not."
As she spoke, she took out a medical stethoscope from her arsenal.
This thing is a modern product, shiny all over and well-made. Although these people have never seen such a thing, as long as they are not blind, they know that it must be a high-end product.
"Look at this thing. This one is even simpler. Just stick it on. What do you think?"
Xia Zhilan looked at this ancestral stethoscope. Although it was extremely exquisite, she felt creepy!
Why is this woman so weird?!
Did this bitch come across the continent just to go against me?
Several disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect were still praising them.
"What a beautifully made stethoscope!"
"Of course not. It's an heirloom. Look how shiny it is. I wonder how long it's been used."
"Well, this must have been used frequently. By my estimation, this thing has been passed down for at least seven or eight generations!"
"I wonder what that tube is made of. It looks so soft."
"You don't know that because you're ignorant. It's obvious that this part can be replaced. They have a craftsmanship passed down from generation to generation."
Xia Zhilan was upset by what they said and yelled,
"That's enough! I don't want to post this! Even if I did, you just say whatever you want. How would I know if what you say is true or not?"
Jiang Lianzhu:
"Once I'm done posting, I'll naturally come up with a reason that will convince you! Why, you won't even accept such a simple solution? Then I have to suspect you're guilty and that what you said before was a lie!"
Xia Zhilan's face was pale, but she still held on.
"Everything I said is true. I didn't lie! Why should I let you take the test? You're already resentful of me. It's well known. Who would believe your test results?"
Jiang Lianzhu:
"Okay, then I won't test it! But I have another idea..."
Hearing this, Xia Zhilan's heart began to tremble, and she really wanted to turn around and run away!
She really couldn't stand it anymore!
But she couldn't run away. If she ran away, wouldn't the charges against her be confirmed?
Jiang Lianzhu looked at her and asked:
"Have you ever touched a fish?"
Xia Zhilan was somewhat bewildered by these irrelevant words.
"Naturally, I've touched it. Who hasn't touched a fish? What's wrong?"
Jiang Lianzhu:
“Since you’ve touched it, you should know that even if you wash your hands carefully after touching it, you can’t completely wash them clean. If you smell them, your hands will still smell fishy.
The principle is the same. The boulder that was pushed down is actually a kind of limestone. It has its own unique smell and easily penetrates the skin. If you have touched it, there must be a residual smell on your hands. Although it is very faint, you should still be able to smell it. Why don't you let Sister Yue and me smell it? We can't all be wronged by you, right?
Hearing this, Xia Zhilan subconsciously stretched out her hand, but suddenly realized it and quickly retracted it.
But this undoubtedly made things more obvious, as several people were staring at her.
Xia Zhilan's face flushed red, she slowly took a half step back, hesitantly saying,
"You, I don't know what you're talking about. I didn't push the stone. Believe it or not, it's up to you..."
At this moment, a figure rushed forward and slapped her in the face.
“Bang!”
"You bitch! You even want to murder me! You are not a human being!"
It was Xia Longyang,
At this moment, he was so angry that his face was as red as Xia Zhilan's.
I don’t know if it was out of anger, anxiety, or shame.
"You, you dare to hit me?!"
Xia Zhilan covered her face with her hands, her expression full of disbelief, and she cried out in pain, then turned around and ran away!
