Chapter 2501
In the next three days, whether it was Ye Xiao's side, or Special Envoy Hou and Hua An's side, they were all actively preparing for the battle, waiting for the day of trial to see who was better.
During this period, Ye Xiao no longer had the comfortable days he had before. Most of the time, he stayed beside the Second Elder to protect him, chat with him, play chess, etc.
Such days naturally made Ye Xiao feel very boring, but the Second Elder seemed very relaxed, and from time to time, under the name of playing chess, he instilled some doctrines and ways of dealing with the world into Ye Xiao.
Fortunately, Ye Xiao could still receive various intelligence from Xuanyuan and Hua An, which was the only thing that could relieve his boredom in these three days.
Among the intelligence, Ye Xiao was most concerned about the movements of the Mo people.
But except for Hua An's report that several Mo people who were half-step into the God Realm would come to Tianjin to attend the trial under the protection of the masters of the Imperial Palace, there was no news of other Mo people who had escaped.
There was also an expected piece of information that made Ye Xiao pay more attention to it, that is, the land south of Shawan was officially announced by the Commerce Bureau as a commercial zone.
Below this information, there was also the latest news about Yang Ning and Lu Shihao.
Both of them were admitted to the hospital a day ago because of the complete attack of the toxin. They were saved by the doctor's rescue. Later, after hearing the news of the failure of the Shawan land, Yang Ning died of the toxin attack because he could not accept the stimulation.
Although Lu Shihao temporarily saved his life, he was only half a step away from getting a box lunch.
Maybe Yang Ning and Lu Shihao would never think about who they died in until they died!
This is really a death with eyes wide open.
Yang Ning's death and Lu Shihao's half-death were just a small episode for Ye Xiao, but they caused an uproar in the Yang and Lu families.
Because both Yang Ning and Lu Shihao were relatively important figures for their respective families.
However, because the general attack on the second elder was imminent, the Yang family and the Lu family did not dare to relax, so they chose to block the news and keep a low profile.
Time soon came, the day of the public trial of the second elder.
On this day, there were crowds of people outside the Jinmen court.
Many local citizens, as well as Longguo people who came from all over the country after hearing the news, gathered outside the court. Some of them held banners to speak up for the second elder, and many shouted slogans, demanding severe punishment for the second elder.
The Jinmen War Department and the Jinmen Police Station both sent a large number of manpower to maintain order.
Ordinary people rarely cross the yellow line and enter the trial site, but this does not include reporters from Longguo and other countries around the world.
Due to the special status of the second elder, the trial of the second elder is a hot news both in Longguo and globally.
In addition to the people who came to the scene, hundreds of millions of people squeezed into the live broadcast rooms of major news media to pay attention to this trial.
Even though the trial had not started yet, people kept talking in the live broadcast rooms. The screens were full of discussions about whether the second elder was guilty and whether he should be punished.
At around nine o'clock in the morning, accompanied by Ye Xiao and others, the car carrying the second elder arrived outside the court.
"Look, the second elder is over there!" As soon as the second elder appeared, he became the focus of the scene and caused a sensation.
"Second elder, you are a hero of my Dragon Country. I believe in you. Don't give in to rumors and bow to evil forces." Someone shouted.
During this period, although there were many water armies on the Internet who used the Mo tribe incident to sway and slander the second elder, the propaganda department of the War Department was not a pushover. It also made a detailed introduction to the ins and outs of the Mo tribe incident on the official website of the War Department.
Many people are still willing to believe in the War Department and the second elder, but there are still people who are skeptical about the information on the official website of the War Department. They would rather believe the rumors spread by the water army with many loopholes than believe the War Department.
"The emperor is guilty of the same crime as the common people. The second elder must be held accountable and justice must be done to the Mo people!"
"The Mo people are innocent. They are also the people of this land. No one has the power to deprive them of their freedom and life. The second elder is guilty and his crime is extremely serious!"
Outside the court, there were voices supporting and opposing the second elder.
In response, the second elder just walked into the court door calmly, as if he was deaf to all kinds of voices, either supporting or scolding and slandering.
Ye Xiao, who was beside the second elder, was also very calm. In the past few days, he played chess with the second elder, and his mind became clearer.
He can be strong as he wants, the breeze blows over the hills, he can be arrogant as he wants, and the bright moon shines on the river.
Ye Xiao and the second elder were indifferent, but following the second elder,Behind the elders, the soldiers of the War Department who were maintaining order at the scene all looked angry.
They may not have seen the Second Elder before, but they still knew what kind of person he was and what he had done.
Such a soul figure in the army who had made outstanding contributions and was deeply respected by millions of soldiers has now become the target of criticism by some people, and has to be accused and slandered by the public who do not know the truth. Any soldier of the War Department with blood cannot tolerate it.
After Ye Xiao and the Second Elder entered the court, two more cars stopped.
Two middle-aged men with good temperament got out of the car one after another. Both of them were wearing martial arts robes, with bright eyes, and they were martial artists with good strength.
These two people are the two leaders of the two major sects of Tianjin martial arts, Wu Linqing, the president of Tianjin Wuji Association, and Lu Congfeng, the president of Liuhe Association.
After meeting, Lu Congfeng sighed in a pretentious manner: "Brother Wu, I really didn't expect that things would develop to this point!"
"The criminals of the Mo clan have become the plaintiffs, while the second elder who has strict military law and is deeply loved by the army has become the defendant."
Hearing Lu Congfeng's fake words, Wu Linqing was very disdainful in his heart, but his face also showed resentment.
"Who said it wasn't! A person as respected as the second elder was treated like this. I really don't know if those villains have eaten their consciences."
"However, I believe that God has eyes. It's not that he won't report, but the time has not come yet. What do you think, Brother Lu?"
It's not time to turn against Liuhemen yet, so even if Wu Linqing is disgusted with Lu Congfeng, he can only suppress his disgust and appease the latter.
But this does not mean that Wu Linqing cannot use words to disgust Lu Congfeng.
After hearing what Wu Linqing said, Lu Congfeng replied slightly unnaturally: "Brother Wu is right!"
Originally, with Lu Congfeng's psychological quality, he would not have any emotional fluctuations, but Wu Linqing's words reminded him of his third son Lu Shihao who was sentenced to death by the doctor.
Is there really retribution?
But so what?
His Lu family has no way back. Just taking in the Mo people is enough to make the Lu family a thorn in the eyes of the Wu Ji Association and the War Department, not to mention that he has done more than just these.
This battle must be decided by a winner, and the second elder's faction must lose.
