Chapter 917: The Highest Realm of Lying: Brainwashing Yourself
Chen Guanlou laughed in anger.
He put down his wine glass, pointed at the moon in the sky, and distinguished them one by one:
"First, I am not an eyewitness. At that time, I was hiding on the mountain, and by the time I realized something was wrong, Master Liaochen had already disappeared without a trace.
Second, I didn't step into Daxiang Temple even once; why Master Liaochen suddenly passed away, I really don't know. Third, if you ask me if I saw the murderer, I tell you, no.
Fourth, you think I have the ability to kill a Grandmaster across ranks, even if the other party is injured. Look, you have no confidence, and of course, I have no confidence either. Don't think of me as too powerful. A martial artist is a martial artist; it is impossible to challenge a Grandmaster!"
"Eunuch Wei doesn't think so!"
"Eunuch Wei's thoughts are certainly important, but one must also respect the facts. Have you asked Eunuch Wei if he really believes I have the ability to kill Master Liaochen?"
Wang Hai frowned.
Of course he had asked, and he was anxious when he asked; he didn't believe at all that Chen Guanlou had the ability to kill Master Liaochen. That was a Grandmaster! A Grandmaster who makes people look up to the high mountains, unreachable!
If a Grandmaster were so easy to kill, how could he be revered by the world as a supreme existence.
However, Eunuch Wei was determined that Chen Guanlou could not escape the relationship with Liaochen's death, so he could only make this trip.
"The key is not whether you killed him or whether you can kill him. The key is that you appeared at the scene that night." Wang Hai sighed, "You shouldn't have gone that night. Actually, I also discovered the movement that night, but I held back; I didn't move."
Thus, he avoided a huge trouble!
He should really be glad for his self-restraint.
"Appearing at the scene and watching the fun means I can't escape the relationship. What kind of logic is this? Even if Eunuch Wei is overbearing, he should at least pay attention to evidence. The facts that the Embroidered Uniform Guard has already investigated clearly, he still wants to cause trouble; I don't know what his purpose is."
Chen Guanlou didn't believe that Eunuch Wei was sincerely seeking justice for Monk Liaochen and wanted to find the real murderer.
Eunuch Wei and Liaochen are the same old treacherous thieves, full of calculations. What is his purpose for holding onto me?
"The facts are not clear. The Embroidered Uniform Guard did not find the real murderer who killed Master Liaochen." Wang Hai corrected.
Chen Guanlou sneered twice, "It's the Embroidered Uniform Guard's incompetence! You should go to the Embroidered Uniform Guard to settle the account, not question me. Brother Wang, I treat you as a brother, so please say a fair word for me. I, a mere Ninth-Rank, have absolutely no ability to kill Master Liaochen across ranks.
When I was threatened, Master Liaochen spoke up several times to help me out of the siege, and I was deeply grateful; how could I harm him. What kind of person do you think I am, worse than a pig or a dog?"
He was righteous and stern!
He is a great good citizen; how could he do such sneaky, back-stabbing, murderous things. If he had killed him, he would definitely admit it openly! He whispered to himself that he would admit it openly in a hundred years, if anyone still cared about this matter then.
So...
He really didn't lie!
Every word he said came from the bottom of his heart.
Did he kill Liaochen?
Wrong!
He just helped Liaochen get liberated and helped Liaochen maintain the image of an eminent monk. He couldn't let evil cultivation methods destroy an eminent monk. Liaochen was affected by the inner demons of his past experiences and was attached to the mundane world; he helped the other party with a knife to get liberated and did a good deed without leaving a name.
He was very satisfied!
Liaochen was also very satisfied!
They were both very satisfied!
The person who is not satisfied is a demon, but the demon's opinion is not important, and the demon deserves to die. If you have to say he killed someone, he just killed a demon who had committed all kinds of evil, and it had nothing to do with Liaochen.
Look!
The logic is perfect!
He really didn't kill Liaochen, he just killed a demon who had committed all kinds of evil.
He has a clear conscience!
No matter who comes to ask, he is always that sentence, "I didn't kill Liaochen!"
Wang Hai believed it!
He saw the anger of being wronged in Chen Guanlou's eyes, saw honesty, and saw true feelings! The only thing he didn't see was lies, and he didn't see the guilty conscience and pride of killing someone.
"I believe you! But it's useless! Eunuch Wei doesn't believe you!"
Wang Hai said concisely.
Chen Guanlou raised an eyebrow slightly, "Eunuch Wei has a prejudice against me; I understand. You go back and tell him, if he is determined that I killed Master Liaochen, he can take my life at any time. In short, I have a clear conscience; I didn't kill anyone, so I didn't kill anyone, and don't even think about framing me. If I had known earlier that watching the fun had such great risks these days, I wouldn't have gone no matter what."
He had a look of regret, true feelings!
Wang Hai felt sympathetic; that night, he also almost couldn't hold back.
He sighed again, "I will report truthfully to Eunuch Wei; I can't guarantee whether it will be useful."
"Many thanks! Whether it works or not, I owe you a favor."
Chen Guanlou raised his wine glass and toasted the other party.
He took the opportunity to change the subject and chatted about Zhou Mobai. Learning that Zhou Mobai was imprisoned but his emotions were extremely unstable, and Wei Wubing couldn't get away to ask questions in person, he felt secretly happy.
Zhou Mobai is a good person!
"Is Senior Zhou okay?"
"I heard that the cultivation method he practiced before went wrong, and he is very tormented. Eunuch Wei is trying to solve it!" Wang Hai said so.
Chen Guanlou raised an eyebrow slightly but didn't ask more.
He boldly guessed that the so-called "Blood Cultivation Reverse Method" seemed to be an opportunity in an ancient tomb, but it was likely a means left by the owner of the ancient tomb to torture "grave robbers."
"Blood Cultivation Reverse Method" doesn't sound like anything good.
Yet it was placed upright in the tomb chamber of the ancient tomb, together with a pile of cultivation classics. Anyone who broke in and saw it would subconsciously think that this cultivation method was as precious and amazing as other immortal cultivation classics. Even if it is evil cultivation, as long as it can be successfully practiced, it is worth a try.
Little did they know, all of this was clearly a trap set by the owner of the ancient tomb.
A trap that makes people unable to seek life or death.
A proper open conspiracy!
Chen Guanlou sighed, feeling quite emotional.
He said again: "Eunuch Wei and Senior Zhou have a really good relationship!"
"They have known each other since childhood and studied under the same master; their feelings are naturally incomparable to others." Wang Hai served in the palace and naturally knew more.
"As far as I know, Senior Zhou is not a eunuch."
"Senior Zhou is indeed not a castrated person."
Wang Hai spoke of the word 'castrated person' quite frankly.
"However, the cultivation method Senior Zhou practices is said to be a bit strange. I don't know the specifics. Don't talk about them; these are all things from the previous generation. Don't think that because Eunuch Wei is busy and can't get away recently, you can sit back and relax. The matter of Master Liaochen's passing will not be closed until it is investigated clearly."
Chen Guanlou was a bit surprised, "Eunuch Wei and Master Liaochen have a very good relationship?"
"It shouldn't be called very good. However, Master Liaochen is a Grandmaster; Grandmasters compete with each other and cherish each other. Master Liaochen passed away, and Eunuch Wei inevitably feels the rabbit dies and the fox grieves.
In short, you should be prepared to be questioned by Eunuch Wei in person one day. Whether you did it or not, and what exactly you did, it is best to be able to produce evidence. No one wants to try Eunuch Wei's interrogation methods; I call it the most cruel torture. Anyone who has suffered it either dies or is disabled, becomes a fool, and no one can escape."
Chen Guanlou said 'um um', appearing indifferent. If he told the other party that he had already tasted Eunuch Wei's interrogation methods and could still jump around standing here, I don't know if the other party would be scared to death. ===== CHAPTER 918 =====
