My brother is so cunning.

Hearing what Rui said, He Lingyun was also stunned. When she walked towards the gate of Jinling Sect, she expected various scenarios, but she did not expect that the situation of being coerced by someone who she had been worried about these days did not appear.

Senior Brother Wen's tone and expression were very natural. Judging by his meaning, he seemed to have almost forgotten He Lingyun and didn't take her seriously at all.

For a moment, He Lingyun also began to doubt himself, suspecting that everything he had guessed before was just random imagination, and the truth was not at all what he thought.

But she quickly woke up from her confusion. She believed in her intuition. Whether she was a woman or a spiritual bird, her intuition was always accurate and she could never make mistakes when judging people!

"Wait a minute, Senior Brother Wen!"

He Lingyun quickly stopped him: "Stop pretending, your pretentiousness can deceive others, but it cannot deceive me. I came to find you to return the 40,000 spirit stones. I will not be rewarded for my efforts. I took the spirit stones." If you feel uneasy, please take it back, Senior Brother Wen!”

When Wen Rui heard "forty thousand spirit stones", his expression changed slightly, but he quickly covered it up, but the details were captured by He Lingyun, who had good eyesight.

"What forty thousand spirit stones?" Wen Rui said with an uninformed and confused expression: "I have no idea what you are talking about. Jarvis, check the file. Have I signed a loan agreement with Junior Sister He? Does she owe me spiritual stones?"

The male voice responded in time: "No relevant agreement was retrieved. There is no debt dispute between the master and Fairy He."

Wen Rui spread his hands, shrugged and said: "Junior sister He, did you remember it wrong? When doing business, I only recognize contracts and not people. The entire Lishan Immortal Sect, from Lishan's mother to the apprentices who just started, who I don’t know, who doesn’t know? Everyone who comes to me to do business has signed an agreement with me. If you don’t have an agreement, you are making empty claims and have no basis. You should go back and think about it carefully!”

"Eh?"

He Lingyun was dumbfounded. He never expected that Wen Rui would say this.

Her return of the spirit stone was actually a pretense. It was good to get rid of the hot potato, but it didn't matter if she was rejected, because she had hidden the photo beads and voice magnets on her body. She used this excuse to secretly record the video, so she could answer the question. Let Wenrui show his weakness and give him a handle. Even if he confronts Our Lady of Lishan in the future, he will be able to produce evidence.

However, Wen Rui directly refused to admit it, and He Lingyun could only bite the bullet and continue: "I was in such a rush that day that I didn't have time to sign, but you did give me 40,000 spiritual stones..."

Photo recording beads and voice magnets do not have editing functions. Once recorded, the entire process will be recorded, and playback will also be the entire process of playback. He Lingyun was afraid of saying the wrong thing and being exploited by Wen Rui, so he did not dare to reveal too much information, so he carefully answered every word.

"Junior sister He, you must have drunk too much in heaven and earth. My store doesn't sell fake wine. Why are you talking nonsense?"

Wen Rui said with a fake smile on his face: "Everyone in the Lishan Immortal Sect knows that I have a good habit of signing agreements. No matter how busy I am, I will never forget to sign the agreement. It's the old lady Lishan who has been following me for the past five hundred years. There are no less than a hundred sect construction contract agreements signed, which makes her very annoyed. How could I lend you money but forget to sign the agreement? Your words are not very credible. I advise you to go back and wake up. Sober up, blow some air, and calm down.”

He Lingyun opened her mouth, but was speechless. Only then did she realize that Senior Brother Wen did it on purpose!

Wen Rui deliberately didn't sign the agreement when he gave her the spiritual stone, and turned around and left while she was upset. As a result, there was really no proof that she was forced to receive black money!

This guy usually disguises himself very well, leaving everyone with the inherent impression that "you must sign an agreement when doing anything". However, when he does dirty things, he deliberately ignores it and leaves no evidence. When something goes wrong, the victim comes out to confront him, because others will believe him more if he can't come up with an agreement!

He Lingyun gritted her teeth with hatred, but she refused to give up. She took out the four bags of spirit stones from her bag, threw the bags at the gate of Jinling Sect, and said: "No matter what the hell agreement is signed or not, Anyway, the spirit stone is returned to you, and everything is settled between you and me!"

Wen Rui sneered, not bothering to pay attention to her, and said, "Jarvis, our Jinling Sect is a business place in heaven and earth. We open the door to welcome guests. The forest is big and there are all kinds of birds. It is inevitable that some guests will drink too much and throw things around. According to the rules Let’s go through the lost and found procedure.”

Jarvis replied as if he was singing a double act: "Master, I will pack Fairy He's lost items in a bag and ask other guests from Caiyun Peak to take them back and return them to her."

He Lingyun had already turned around and walked away some distance. He wanted to fly back to Caiyun Peak with his sword. Hearing the questions and answers from the master and servant behind him, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and turn back. He picked up the bag of spirit stones on the ground and said sternly. No matter how you took it out, you took it back into the bag.

The girl was so angry that her eye circles were slightly red. She raised her head and looked at the screen. Your true face!"

Wen Rui on the screen squinted, looked down at her for a moment, and then said helplessly: "What's the point of it? You're obviously getting benefits, but you treat me as a bad guy. How is that?"

He Lingyun said with a determined expression: "Good people don't have as many complex schemings as you. It would be fine if I were deceived by you like the junior sisters. Now that I have seen the clues, I will never give up!"

When Wen Rui heard this, he sneered and said: "Back then, most of the immortals in our Jiejiao sect were innocent and kind-hearted people, and they valued the friendship between teachers and sects the most. They were anxious for justice and sacrificed their lives. However, in the end, they betrayed the great fate of the world. The culprits were all classified as bad guys, and they were plotted by the complex Twelve Golden Immortals to eliminate their evil karma.

He Lingyun had read this period of the history of conferring gods in the library, and heard Rui use this as an example. Facts speak louder than words, and there is no way to refute it.

"Junior sister, senior brother, as someone who has been through this, can teach you a lesson."

Wen Rui said in a serious tone: "If you want to be a good person, you must be smarter than the bad people, more shameless than the bad people, and more ruthless than the bad people, so that you can defeat the bad people."

He Lingyun only felt that her three views were shocked. This was contrary to the teachings of the teachers of Lishan Xianzong, but she couldn't explain why.

Wen Rui continued: "You have two choices now. One is to take your spirit stone and leave, and go back and use it with peace of mind. I promise that I will never have anything to do with you again. You can sign an agreement as proof. The other is to come in and see me. , hand this spiritual stone to me face to face, as the saying goes, 'people are afraid of meeting, and trees are afraid of peeling off their skin'. If you don't confront me face to face, how can you reveal my true face?"

After Wen Rui finished speaking, the door of Jinlingzong's cave slowly opened, revealing a dark entrance.

He Lingyun hesitated, vaguely feeling that her previous assumptions about Senior Brother Wen were not necessarily accurate, but they were not necessarily inaccurate either. She couldn't help but think of what Senior Brother Wen had reminded her before: human nature is complex and cannot be distinguished by good and bad.

Making a choice from a rational perspective of seeking profit and avoiding disaster, it must be better to turn around and leave, but in that case the truth will never be found out - even if she surrenders and confesses, Wen Rui's eloquence and scheming are many floors higher than hers. , if she was so eloquent as to make trouble in front of Our Lady of Lishan, she would not be able to withstand it at all. She might be framed for some heinous crime and die in humiliation and injustice.

But when you walk through that door, wouldn't it be like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth? Can Senior Brother Wen, who is shrewder, more shameless, and more ruthless than the bad guys, let himself go out intact?

Heaven and man have been fighting for a long time. He Lingyun's eyes became firm, as if to encourage himself, and said to himself: "The classics say: If you hear the Tao in the morning, you can die in the evening. It is better to die with understanding than to live in confusion!"

After saying that, she resolutely stepped into the dark doorway, which was like the mouth of an abyss that chooses people to eat.

"Didi!"

As soon as he entered the door, there was a harsh sound from the side, and Jarvis's voice sounded: "If you find that the visitor is carrying contraband, please leave the contraband in the storage area."

He Lingyun took out the orbs and magnets he had hidden in his body and placed them in the iron cabinet that opened automatically. The iron door of the elevator room in front opened.

Under the guidance of Jarvis's voice, He Lingyun walked into the elevator room, and after a period of descent, arrived at a certain underground floor of Jinling Sect.

Passing through the long metal wall corridor, He Lingyun came to a large hall. This hall was filled with many weird large-scale metal structures. Various lights and screens flickered, and countless information scrolled on the screen. This scene Everything in it was beyond her knowledge.

Wen Rui was still wearing the moon-white coat. The clothes seemed to have never been washed and were stained with various stains. His hair was still disheveled, there was a messy stubble on his chin, a pair of dark circles under his eyes, and drool was flowing at the corner of his mouth. The smell of alcohol can be smelled from a distance.

Senior Brother Wen was drawing dots in the air, and the complex graphics in the light curtain projected in the air kept changing with his operations. It seemed that he was making deductions and calculations, or drawing complicated formations.

Sensing He Lingyun approaching, Wen Rui put down what he was doing and turned around to face her.

"That's right, that spiritual stone is the hush money. After you take the money, you just need to be as quiet as a chicken. In this way, I don't have to worry about how to use other methods to block your mouth all day long. I can save a lot. Use your time and energy to do the right things.”

Wen Rui rubbed his forehead and said without any hesitation: "Why can't you keep quiet and make a fortune? This won't do you any harm, right?"

"Because I'm not a chicken, I'm a crane!"

He Lingyun puffed up his little chest and said: "You plotted to kill the Western monks and made friends with the demon kings from all directions. You must have evil intentions. Now you are building a demon cave in the world to attract junior sisters to fall into it. If I accept your spiritual stone, I will hide it for you. I am colluding with you and watching the misfortune of my junior sisters, so why not risk my life to fight against you and expose your actions to the public, even if I die without any regrets!"

"My Lady of Lishan and I have some differences on the teachings of Jiejiao and the future development policy of Jiejiao. If these differences are not brought to the table, the two sects of Lishan and Jinling can still seek common ground while shelving differences, unite for warmth, and help each other. I also have the confidence to spend It will take some time to slowly correct the appeasement ideas and capitulationist line errors of Our Lady of Lishan..."

Wen Rui narrowed his eyes, walked slowly and said in a slow voice: "Some things are not as heavy as four or two, but if they are on the scale, even a thousand kilograms can't stop them... Lishan and Jinling will benefit from their cooperation, and they will benefit from their separation." Two evils, at this critical time when the fragile balance is on the verge of collapse, you are the one who likes to get to the bottom of things. "

At this point, he sighed and looked at He Lingyun with sharp eyes: "Junior Sister He, you are neither willing to accept hush money nor to die, which makes me very embarrassed."
