Chapter 231 Traitor

Just as Bai Yu was about to report, a voice interrupted him.

"Wait!"

Jiao Beihai hurried over:

"Lord Wuchang, wait a minute."

Bai Yu turned around and looked:

"Old Jiao? What do you think?"

Jiao Beihai was sweating:

"This half month is the turn of the seal holder of a certain family. It is a serious offense for a certain family to leave the demon."

"Once reported, the future of a certain family will be gone, and everyone in the entire Xuanwu Tomb will be punished, and Lord Wuchang will also be unlucky."

"So, Lord Wuchang, do you think you can suppress it first and let us check it ourselves first."

The other burial demon soldiers also changed their faces after hearing this.

Many people began to murmur:

"Yes, if you don't say it and I don't say it, and no one else says it, who will know that the demon has gone?"

"If this is reported, we will all be finished. A salary deduction is still a light punishment, and it may even alert the secret guards."

"Lord Wuchang, why don't we handle it internally."

Bai Yu looked at Jiao Beihai meaningfully.

Jiao Beihai's idea is quite normal. If he reports it, he will be punished, so he shouldn't report it.

Deceiving the superiors and hiding the truth from the subordinates is a necessary skill for all officials.

Unfortunately, this matter was originally caused by Bai Yu in order to alert the superiors.

What if the sky collapses?

Bai Yu's idea is to poke a hole in the sky first.

At that time, there will naturally be a powerful person to repair the sky and hold it up.

Bai Yu's face changed, and he said righteously:

"God knows what you have done, and the ancestor is watching us from heaven."

"Besides, a red demon has escaped, how can this be concealed?"

"If it is hiding in the Xuanwu Tomb now, everyone is in danger of life, and no one knows how they will die one day!"

"The last Xuanwu Tomb was wiped out because the red demon left."

Bai Yu's words made everyone's faces change drastically.

With the lessons learned from the past, everyone dared not take chances.

Bai Yu reported the matter without saying a word.

"The Thunder and Fire Array is fully activated, and the Buried Demon Soldiers and the Seal Master on duty that day will be examined in the hall!"

"Everyone else should stay in their positions to prevent the monsters from harming them!"

Orders were issued one by one, and the Xuanwu Tomb was extremely nervous, waiting for someone from above.

Bai Yu was standing aside, looking at everyone calmly, taking in everyone's expressions.

Everyone had different expressions, most of them were panic-stricken.

Unfortunately, based on their expressions alone, it is not possible to determine who is the traitor.

Finally, the sound of "click" and "click" of armor came from outside the door.

Lord Bao brought two inspectors and a team of armored demon burial soldiers and rushed over in a hurry.

The day inspector Tiepanguan said in a deep voice:

"Wuchang, what's going on?"

Bai Yu hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, and told the story of the demon that had escaped.

Tiepanguan quickly analyzed the situation:

"A shadow demon escaped, and it was a red demon level."

"Shadow demons are the most elusive, and they may be hiding in the Xuanwu Tomb, and may even be attached to someone!"

After he finished his analysis, he bowed to Lord Bao.

"Lord Bao, this matter is serious and must not be underestimated."

"We must conduct a comprehensive investigation of the entire Xuanwu Tomb."

Lord Bao had a frosty face and cursed in his heart.

The Chi Mo left, this is a big deal, even he will be reprimanded by his superiors.

He snorted:

"From now on, the Xuanwu Tomb will be taken over by my personal guards."

"Everyone in the Xuanwu Tomb will be fined for three years, demoted by half a grade, and temporarily act as the original position."

Bai Yu heard it, pretending to be hurt.

Demoting half a grade means that he went from the sixth grade to the deputy sixth grade.

And he was fined for three years, of course, most people would feel hurt.

But in fact, Bai Yu didn't care about the rank of official, nor did he care about the three-year salary.

As long as he could attend the funeral peacefully, the reward for attending the funeral was better than any salary.

At this time, Lord Bao ordered Judge Tie again:

"Judge Tie, take your men to isolate and interrogate everyone in the Xuanwu Tomb!"

"Smiling Buddha, you are responsible for a comprehensive search of the Xuanwu Tomb, and you must find the whereabouts of the red demon!"

Judge Tie waved his hand, and the Iron Armored Burial Demon Guards were dispatched to take the original Burial Demon Soldiers of the Xuanwu Tomb for interrogation.

Bai Yu was also among those being interrogated.

On the way, he remained calm and used his last reserve experience to upgrade a spell "True and False Heart Spell" to great success.

This is a low-grade spell of the earth level, and its only function is to temporarily tamper with one's own memory and counter spells such as the Mantra Spell and the Heart Spell.

Cheating others first deceives oneself, and makes the false become true, and deceives oneself to believe it.

In a stone chamber, Judge Tie personally interrogated Bai Yu.

Judge Tie looked at Bai Yu and said coldly:

"Wu Chang, tell us everything again."

Bai Yu was not afraid, and said that he was resting that night, and when he woke up the next day and heard the whistle and gong, he knew that the demon had taken him away.

Judge Tie asked again:

"Did you find anything unusual before and after the incident?"

Bai Yu frowned and pretended to think deeply.

After a while, he tentatively said:

"Master Tie Pan, there was indeed a problem before, and I don't know if it is abnormal."

Judge Tie knocked on the table:

"You can talk!"

Bai Yu said:

"In our Xuanwu Tomb, each tomb is equipped with a talking puppet to distract the demons."

"During this period, the red demon in tomb No. 8 was quarreling with the puppet, and accidentally said that someone would come to save it, and then the entire Demon Burial Tower would be killed."

Iron Judge’s eyes were like daggers:

"Why don't you report in the morning?"

Bai Yu said awkwardly:

"This... monster has so many crazy words. Nine out of ten of them will say they want to kill us all. No one knows which one is true."

"And we don't dare to think too much about it. Qing Feng had too much contact with monsters before and became possessed by them."

Judge Iron suddenly stood up:

"This matter is too important. I will ask the Patriarch to conduct a strict investigation."

A red devil ran away, and by coincidence it said that someone was there to help him. It was no wonder that Iron Judge didn't take it seriously.

He didn't even interrogate him and just left the stone room.

Outside the stone room, he looked at a scribe beside him.

"Is what Impermanence said true?"

The scribe said:

"The soul judgment stone didn't react much, which means that his soul is not fluctuating much, and 90% of the time he may not be lying."

Judge Iron looked solemn:

"If Wu Chang didn't lie, then the problem would be even more serious. There might be a spy sneaking in! Report it to the local officials and generals immediately!"

In the stone chamber, Bai Yu waited quietly.

All I could hear was the sound of gongs and drums outside, and the sound was extraordinary.

Looking at the posture, I'm afraid it won't be over for a while.

He was not in a hurry and started practicing in the stone room.

During this period, Judge Iron also invited the portrait of the Patriarch to come in and questioned Bai Yu under the portrait of the Patriarch.

Three days later, the door of the stone chamber opened with a "squeak".

Judge Iron walked in:

"Impermanence, you can go out!"

Bai Yu said:

"Master Iron Judge, did you catch the red devil?"

Iron Judge had no expression on his face:

"The matter is settled. Two red demons disguised as Cang Demon were found in Xuanwu Tomb. One of them should be the escaped Shadow Demon, who took the body and disguised himself as Cang Demon."

"And a traitor was caught!"
