Chapter 21 What a Big Pot
There are only three rooms here, one for Lan Xi and Bai Ying, one for Xiao Mochi's uncle and nephew, and Wu Chuan and Zhou Yang are left to make do with it.

In the early morning of the next day, the sky was still bright, and there were people standing outside the door.

"Bai Ying! Hand over those foreigners!"

"Yes! Hand it over!"

……

Lan Xi was woken up by the shouts outside one after another.

It's only five o'clock. Although she has the habit of doing morning exercises, she is also annoyed by someone disturbing her waking dreams.

There was a thin layer of mist in her eyes, tears were hanging from the corners of her eyes, they were slightly reddish, her eyes were slightly narrowed, a little confused and frivolous.

After going out of the room and opening the door, I saw a group of villagers surrounded Baiying's residence.

"What are you shouting about!"

Bai Ying yelled at the villagers angrily.

"The Great Elder's amethyst flower was stolen! Quickly hand over the foreigners you brought!"

"that is!"

The villagers echoed again and again.

Lan Xi leaned against the door and sneered, a villager pointed at her and said dissatisfiedly, "What are you laughing at?"

"Of course I'm laughing at you for turning black and white. We can't bear such a big blame."

"Before you came, our village was safe and sound. It must be the treasure you coveted for the Great Elder!"

The speaker's voice was a bit familiar, and Lan Xi noticed Lou Chuan who was crowded in the crowd.

It seems that the lesson given to him yesterday was too light, otherwise he wouldn't have come here without a long memory to fan the flames.

The villagers' emotions were stirred up by Lou Chuan, Xiao Mochi came out, followed by Wu Chuan and Xiao Yichen.

Zhou Yang came to Bai Ying's side and held her hand tightly.

Xiao Mochi glanced at the crowd, his eyes locked on Lou Chuan.

His eyes were sharp and cold, which made people feel intimidated. He was full of majesty, and his whole body exuded a domineering aura, which shocked everyone with just one look.

For a moment, there was no sound.

The crowd shivered to get out of the way, Bai Zhi came to the front of the crowd, and Bai Wei followed behind her.

"Please take a few steps to the ancestral hall."

Bai Zhi's cold words sounded, but there was still no expression on her face.

"You don't believe us either?"

Xiao Yichen asked loudly in Bai Zhi's direction.

"You go to the ancestral hall to testify and you can be innocent."

There was a noticeable seriousness on her face.

Lan Xi yawned, throwing the blame on people's faces, and it would not be her style if she didn't throw it back.

A group of people followed to the ancestral hall in the village.

There are six chairs in the front hall of the ancestral hall, and in the center of the seat sit two octogenarians. They wear black ethnic costumes and hats on their heads.

One of the two old people sitting on the seat was skinny and wrinkled, and the other was also skinny and out of shape, smoking dry tobacco in his mouth.

"The Great Elder, the Second Elder, everyone has brought them here."

After Bai Zhi finished speaking, she sat down on the side of the Great Elder, and her status was evident from this.

For a long while, no one in the seat spoke, as if they were waiting for something.

"Elder, we found the Amethyst Flower in their residence!"

An unfamiliar male voice broke the silence in the hall, and immediately there were discussions outside the ancestral hall.

The Great Elder coughed a few times, his voice a little hoarse.

"What else do you want to say?"

Xiao Yichen was filled with indignation, he thought they were fools for such a low-level framing, and they would have to bear it if they took a pot out of it?

"We didn't steal it, so we don't care about it!"

"You are bold!"

The second elder stared at Xiao Yichen with eyes like poisonous snakes, his eyes were full of coldness, how could Qianyun Village allow outsiders to be reckless, let alone a sinner who violated the ancestral system like Baiying, what kind of good people could he bring.

Lan Xi had already come to the villager holding the amethyst grass.

Amethyst grass less than half the size of a palm lay in the palm-sized box.

Amethyst grass has three leaves and one flower. The stems and leaves are transparent lavender. The flower has three petals and is dark purple.

Lan Xi inadvertently shook her arm lightly.

The villagers dodged their eyes and hugged the box containing the amethyst grass in their arms.

"You said you found it in our residence? In front of your elders and saintess, do you dare to repeat the process again?"

Lan Xi narrowed her fox eyes slightly, and there was a smile in her eyes that didn't reach her eyes.

"After you left, I found Amethyst Grass in the room. Do you still want to deny it when the evidence is in front of you?"

He evasively avoids the important and ignores the trivial, and there is a ghost at a glance.

"Then you stole something from me, so what?"

Lan Xi changed the subject and stared at the person in front of her with interest.

"You nonsense! I didn't steal from you!"

Seeing that the man was a little anxious, Lan Xi pointed to the pocket of his trousers.

From there emerged a small section of black and white pattern.

The man touched his pocket, and suddenly withdrew his hand, and the Tarantula fell directly to the ground.

Their clansmen have dealt with bugs for generations, so naturally they will not be afraid. Even when they saw the Tarantula tarantula, a hint of greed flashed in the man's eyes.

"It was you, you put it on me!"

The man pointed at Lan Xi, furious.

The villagers outside the door also became angry with the crowd.

All of a sudden, there was a lot of scolding.

"Third Master, do you want to think of a way to help Miss Lanxi?"

"No, she'll take care of it."

There was interest in Xiao Mochi's eyes. Ever since Lan Xi got close to that man, he had noticed her little movements. She was more interesting than expected.

He believed she could handle it easily.

Seeing his father's calm and relaxed look, Wu Chuan's blood surged up, the emperor really was not in a hurry and the eunuchs were in a hurry!Bah, wrong, he is not a eunuch!
Lan Xi folded her arms around her chest and cast a cold light on the other villagers at the door.

"Did you see me put something on him? Don't forget, he was the last one here!"

These words directly blocked the mouths of the villagers, and in the blink of an eye, the villagers began to whisper again.

The man's face was anxious, and his heart was a little flustered.

He immediately said anxiously to the villagers outside the door: "Everyone can't listen to a few words of foreigners. I didn't steal anything from her, and I didn't enter her house. I found it in the man's room!"

He pointed at Xiao Yichen, "He stole the amethyst grass!"

"Crack! Crack!"

Lan Xi clapped her hands and smiled, this is a teammate like a pig.

"How do you know which house we live in? And how do you know that there must be amethyst grass in his house?"

The man didn't expect to say the wrong thing in a hurry, and his face sank immediately.

"Bu Lie, what else can you say?"

The cold female voice carried a hint of majesty, and Bai Zhi sat there like a cold snow mountain.

There was no extra emotion on her face, just one glance made the heart of this man named Bu Lie tremble.

Bu Lie directly knelt down, eyes full of panic, "It's Lou Chuan! Lou Chuan asked me to do this, and he gave the amethyst grass!"

Lou Chuan, who was in the crowd, was about to escape, but was caught by a few villagers with sharp eyesight and quick hands, and was escorted into the front hall.

Suddenly, a golden flesh worm with wings flew from Bai Zhi's direction.

It flew extremely fast, and landed on Lou Chuan's shoulder in one fell swoop. When several villagers saw it, they stepped back several steps in fright.

"Lou Chuan, don't tell me the truth!"

Lou Chuan raised his eyelids to look at the Great Elder's position, glanced at the golden silkworm Gu on his shoulder in horror from the corner of his eye, and his back broke out in cold sweat.

"I stole the amethyst grass!"

Lou Chuan gritted his teeth and stared at Lan Xi resentfully.

"It's because she doesn't know what's good! I fell in love with her and gave her a love gu, but she poisoned me! And that man, he kicked my ribs, I hate them!"

Xiao Mochi's cold light flashed across his pupils, reflecting a cold light, Lou Chuan shuddered, and quickly withdrew his finger pointing at the man in fright.

"Are you sure you did it alone?"

Lou Chuan subconsciously moved to the direction behind him. If he confessed to the crime, he would be tortured by thousands of worms. If he recruited the people behind him, his life would be worse than death for the rest of his life.

"I did it alone!"

Lou Chuan clenched his back teeth, and still took all the blame.

The first elder gave the second elder opposite him a calm look.

The second elder comprehended and asked Lou Chuan to be escorted directly to the Criminal Law Hall.
