Chapter 55 Kill the chicken to warn the monkey
Dongfang Bai watched these people discussing in the audience, but did not stop them.
Mentioning Master made her feel melancholy, and remembering that what happened back then had something to do with Xiao Yue made her feel even more uncomfortable, but she had no choice but to numb herself and stop thinking about these things.
Xiao Yue knew that Dongfang Bai remembered what he did back then, and felt pain in his heart for no reason.Heh... why would it be difficult for Dongfang Bai to forget something that even she can't forget...
After a long time, Xiao Yue coughed lightly, Liuli noticed Xiao Yue's expression and nodded slightly.
Xiao Yue glanced lightly at Bao Dachu, and said calmly: "I heard that Elder Bao is in charge of finances in the church, why don't you come and tell me about the current financial situation in the church."
"I would like to report to the Deputy Hierarch, excluding the expenses that were distributed to the Four Halls and the Twelve Banners last year, as well as the maintenance of the entire Blackwood Cliff, the total is 170 and 300 taels of silver, and there are some odds and ends. There is still 10 taels of silver left in the account."
Bao Dachu didn't change his face and said, even Dongfang Bubai couldn't see any flaws in his account, so how could this new deputy leader find any trouble.
Dongfang Bai frowned when she heard this, she didn't expect to have such a small amount of money, although she didn't manage the Divine Sect much in the past year, but in the past there would be a few 10 taels left.She looked at Xiao Yue again, and knew in her heart that there must be something in it.
A bone-piercing chill fell in Xiao Yue's eyes, "Elder Bao, do you really think that other people really don't know what you do?"
Liu Li immediately clapped her hands, and several people in Tsing Yi walked in, each of them walked up to the hall with a stack of thick books in their hands, and put them on the table in front of Dongfang Bai.
Bao Dachu and several other elders were dumbfounded. Those books were real ledgers. They were clearly hidden, so how could they be discovered.
Dongfang Bai casually flipped through the two ledgers, his eyes filled with misery, he looked at Bao Dachu and said, "This is last year's ledger, and it says last year's income was a total of 240 million taels. This is the ledger you gave me. The income can be said to be 160 million taels, so where did the remaining 80 taels go? Do you think that if the leader of the sect is not in the sect, you can do whatever you want?"
"Subordinate..." How could Bao Dachu know that the new deputy leader had found the real ledger just like that, and would have burned the ledger if he had known.
Xiao Yue flipped through other ledgers again, looked at the remaining elders, and said meaningfully: "Elder Mo, Elder Ge spent 10 taels of weapons last year, but why does this ledger only record 3 taels? "
"There is also Elder Wang. It costs 18 taels to make teaching uniforms. Why is there only 10 taels written on the ledger? So, where did the rest of the money go?"
"Master, this must be a trap. The origin of this person is unknown. He is trying to frame us. Master, you must not be provoked by a villain. Although I, Bao Dachu, have no ability, I am loyal to the Divine Sect."
Bao Dachu pointed at Xiao Yue, and denied it outright, he was going to die and refused to admit it, when the other people saw what Bao Dachu said, they all agreed and pointed to Xiao Yue's frame.
Dongfang Bai ignored the elders, she never expected that Xiao Yue would know more about the affairs of the sect than she, the sect leader...
She flipped through the ledger again, looked at the few people in the audience, and said coldly: "Liu, Li, Yang, and Huang, you four banner owners are also quite good, and you are allocated 8 taels a year, and you will swallow four of them yourself." Ten thousand."
"Master, someone must be obstructing it." The four said in unison.
Xiao Yue looked at these people, with a cold air all over her body: "If you admit it readily, maybe I will give you a chance. It's a pity that you won't cry until you see the coffin, so carry it up."
Everyone saw a few people in Tsing Yi carrying several large boxes coming in from outside the main hall, the congregation guessed the contents of the boxes one after another, and the people in Tsing Yi opened the boxes one after another.
After opening a few boxes, the faces of the people below changed when they saw the yellow and white things inside. The boxes were full of gold and silver treasures.
Xiao Yue's voice was extremely light, but it was chillingly cold: "These were all found from your residence, what else do you have to say."
Bao Dachu knew that he couldn't deny it, so he had no choice but to fight to the death. He said that he drew out the big knife that he carried with him, and several other people also drew out their weapons and surrounded them.
"I have endured Dongfang Bubai for a long time. Don't think that you will give us the Three Corpse Brain Pill and we will obey you. When the leader Ren returns, he will naturally help us detoxify. You just wait for the day when the leader Ren returns. When you die."
Dongfang Bai took a look and was still as calm as Xiao Yue, and smiled with his lips curled up.She returned to the treasure seat, and looked at the people in the audience with a look of contempt, but she wanted to see how they were overestimated.
"You think you guys can do anything to me, you're beyond your control."
"Hmph, it's a big deal to fight to the death." Bao Dachu shouted, but he didn't dare to act rashly.
Xiao Yue's eyes were cold, and she asked back: "Haven't you thought about the life and death of your family?"
"Since I dared to blatantly oppose Dongfang Bubai, I naturally made a perfect plan." Bao Dachu sent his family down Heimuya early in the morning.
Sang Sanniang said sharply: "Do you think the deputy leader of your perfect plan doesn't know? Let me tell you, Bao Dachu, your wife and children have already been escorted back to Heimuya in secret."
Bao Dachu was hesitant. He didn't know if it was true or not, so he said angrily: "Sang Sanniang, do you think you can be safe and sound by taking refuge in Dongfang Bubai? Master Ren will not let you go."
Sang Sanniang said coldly, "I am only loyal to the Eastern leader from the beginning to the end, and I am not like you who use power for personal gain. Ten years ago, the divine religion was in turmoil, and everyone was in danger. You said that Ren Woxing became the leader of the East. How many brothers have died? How many families have been ruined? Am I right? Now Ren Woxing is nothing but a loser, even worse than a stray dog, and you still expect him to save you, it’s really funny.”
Shangguan Yun secretly wanted to start a fight, and reap the benefits of being a fisherman himself, inciting everyone: "What nonsense are you talking about to these people, brothers, go up and capture Bao Dachu alive."
Dongfang Bai cast a sideways glance at Shangguan Yun, but did not speak. Looking at the crowd below who were about to move, a sneer appeared on the corner of his lips.
Xiao Yue's eyes suddenly darkened, two streams of true energy gathered in her palm, and only heard two "bang bang", Shangguan Yun and Bao Dachu immediately flew out, when several people went to check, they found that they were dead.
Xiao Yue glanced at the people present, and there was an invisible murderous aura emanating from her brows, making people daunting.
"For me, betraying the Eastern Hierarch is the only way to die. This is Yun's way of doing things. You'd better think carefully about what you do in the future."
Seeing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Although the martial arts of these two elders were not very high, they were considered outstanding in the sect. Unexpectedly, the deputy master killed them with one move.Everyone's backs were already in cold sweat, and no one dared to object any more. Some people who were loyal to Dongfang Bubai still looked at Xiao Yue with fanaticism and excitement.
"Cult leader, please forgive me, deputy leader, please forgive me." Some cowardly congregants who were temporarily obsessed with ghosts hurriedly knelt down and begged.
Tong Baixiong's subordinates had been waiting outside the door. Hearing Tong Baixiong's voice, they rushed in quickly and immediately restrained the rebels. All the rebels were tied and knelt on the ground, unable to struggle.
Dongfang Bai looked at Sang Sanniang meaningfully, and confessed: "Sang Sanniang, go and count the rebels."
"Yes." Sang Sanniang hurriedly got off the high platform, walked toward the kneeling crowd, counted roughly, and hurriedly told Dongfang Baidao.
"Reporting to the leader, there are a total of 43 people. Except for four elders and six banner owners, the rest are middle-level masters in the teaching. These people don't know how the leader will deal with them. If they are dealt with according to the canon, how many elders and how many bannermen will deal with them?" The principal committed the crimes of corruption and inciting apostasy, and should be sentenced to death, cutting his flesh and feeding it to eagles."
Dongfang Bai looked coldly at the crowd kneeling on the ground, it was too cheap to kill them.
"The death penalty is fine. Since these old people have been teaching for many years and have worked hard, I will spare them and imprison them in the Blackwood Cliff Dungeon for the rest of their lives."
Xiao Yue looked at Dongfang Bai in puzzlement, and looked at the rebellious people in the audience, her eyes were still clear, but there was only indifference in them, "Coral."
Coral nodded slightly, and threw a porcelain vase to Sang Sanniang.
"Elder Sang, give these rebels the medicine inside. The leader is willing to spare their lives, but Yun is not so easy to talk about."
"Yes, deputy leader." Sang Sanniang changed her usual attitude and answered with a bow.
Dongfang Bai looked sideways at Xiao Yue, with a smile on his lips, and then looked at the other elders, "Now that there are vacancies for the elders and the banner master, you can report whoever is qualified, and I will decide for myself. "
Then Dongfang Bai said in a cold voice: "Please pay more attention to the situation of Wuyue, and report to me immediately if there is any situation."
"Subordinates obey." Everyone replied
Dongfang Bai looked at the people sitting beside him, and said to the people below: "Everyone, step back."
"Yes, Master."
