Chapter 355
She didn't speak for a long time, and when she spoke, everyone looked at her.
"Of course that's good, who doesn't want supernatural powers?" These are the answers of all candidates, and of course the answers of all human beings.
"Even if you are no longer favored by God?" Human beings can develop to this point, but God's preference is indispensable, Jin Xiongxiong thought.
All living beings should be fair, and gaining magical powers means that these humans have to lose something in order to balance the scales.
"When God loves, does it love those nobles? Or does it only love human beings, not all human beings, but only human beings themselves?" A scholar was stunned, and then laughed out loud.
Human beings are weak but have such achievements. It is true that they have been favored by God, but so what? During this period, how many individual individuals suffered, tortured by one thing or another.
God can achieve the most basic fairness, but can the court do it? As long as there are descendants who are close and distant, it is impossible for the court to achieve the most basic fairness.
The world is as big as the royal land. This land, including the humans on it, belongs to the emperor. The emperor can do whatever he wants.
"If you can't take care of yourself, who can take care of all mankind?" said a scholar wearing a dark blue robe.
The scholars sat around him, vaguely taking him as the leader. Jin Xiongxiong had noticed it before.
Jin Xiongxiong did not expect that he would answer like this, and the other scholars agreed without thinking aloud. She smiled and asked again: "No longer protected by God, human beings will be more dangerous than now, and they will be attacked by monsters or other creatures all the time.
Nao Nuo, are you willing to do this?"
"By then, you will no longer have the peaceful life you have now."
Losing the current peace is unacceptable to all humans. The scholar led by the scholars was also stunned.
The future she describes is the future that can be imagined.
There are monsters hurting humans now. What if it becomes more serious in the future than now?
"I don't know what other people think. My thoughts are still the same as before." The scholar was just stunned for a while, then came back to his senses and immediately gave the answer, "Monsters have magical powers, and humans also have magical powers, right?"
If he had a choice, he would choose to maintain his own life, at least according to his own wishes, instead of having irrelevant people forced to intervene in the name of maintenance.
"what's your name?"
"Just because of the name."
Jin Xiongxiong remembered this scholar named Gu.
Xu knew that she had chatted a lot with the scholars during the day. Those officials involved in the imperial examination fraud finally couldn't bear it any longer. They might go to the palace tomorrow to report the emperor's corruption of them. At night, they sent many assassins to sneak into the courtyard with their intentions.
Kill them all.
As soon as the assassin entered the yard, Jin Xiongxiong, Jiao Qingqing and the others discovered it and immediately asked Jiao Baozhu to wake up Xiao Tian and Mudan to protect them.
"Who are you!" Jin Xiongxiong squinted in his robe and looked at the assassin in front of him.
The assassins didn't expect that they would be so sensitive, and they were discovered as soon as they climbed over the wall. But it didn't matter, they had brought enough people with them, so they weren't afraid that they wouldn't be able to kill Jin Xiongxiong and his party tonight.
"Stop talking nonsense to them," the leader of the black-clad assassins warned, and then Leke issued an order, "Leave no one behind." z.br
The moonlight was bright, and the assassin's knives reflected the cold light in the moonlight. The assassins listened to the order and immediately ran towards the golden bear.
"Heh." Jin Xiongxiong sneered.
These men in black have such a strong evil spirit, they must have done many bad things for their master. In this case, there is no need for them to show mercy at all.
"In this case, how about we leave none of them alone?" Jin Xiongxiong raised his chin slightly and gave the same order to Jiao Qingqing and the others, not dodging or dodging the swords.
There were just a few traveling merchants, mostly women. The assassin leader didn't know where she got the courage, and the corners of her mouth under the mask even raised a sarcastic arc.
Listening to Jin Xiongxiong's words, Jiao Qingqing's eyes changed from human pupils to vertical pupils that only beasts can have, and she took them with her.
A sword glowing red appeared from her hand.
The disguised assassins didn't expect this. They actually looked at each other at this critical moment. The sword appeared out of thin air and emitted a strange red light. Are they... humans or ghosts?
"Things have changed, retreat!" The assassin leader felt something was wrong and shouted in a hissing voice. He was the first to rush out and formed a counterattack with the assassin group.
Jiao Qingqing raised her natal sword, and the moonlight reflected from the sword reflected on her vertical pupils. Her face was expressionless, and she raised her red lips: "It's too late!"
In order to prevent the counter-attack from being disturbed and ruined by people in the alley, Jin Xiongxiong specially used a barrier to isolate all sounds, and the barrier was not removed until early the next morning.
Without the barrier, the neighbors in the alley suddenly smelled the smell of blood.
There was so much blood that the scared people immediately went to report the crime.
Mr. Lu, the official who had interrogated Jin Xiongxiong before, quickly came with his troops and took Jin Xiongxiong and his party away.
He could not try the case and could only hand it over to the emperor in the palace.
Knowing how polite the emperor was to them, Mr. Lu did not let the officers and soldiers suppress him, but used a gesture of invitation. In this way, Jin Xiongxiong felt much better.
Jin Xiongxiong felt a little guilty for leaving Huzi's family's yard like this.
When being taken away by the officers and soldiers, she saw that Huzi's grandmother, instead of blaming her, was standing on the roadside with a worried look on her face, and asked Mr. Lu for fifteen minutes to talk to Huzi's family.
"We'll be fine. We'll talk about everything when we get back."
Jin Xiongxiong plans to compensate Huzi's family when he comes back.
"Okay." Grandma Huzi nodded while holding back her worry.
Everyone in the alley saw what was going on in the yard. The people who were killed were all men in black. It looked like they were not good people, and they might have been killed instead.
If you don't fight back, you will be killed by others. Grandma Huzi also feels sorry for the courtyard that has become like this, but she also feels sorry for Jin Xiongxiong and his party.
Speaking of which, Grandma Huzi is really a very good person.
Jin Xiongxiong patted her hand to comfort her. Seeing Mr. Lu's reminding eyes, he knew it was getting late and turned around to leave.
Little Qilin also looked at Grandma Huzi, and was still watching when Jin Xiongxiong walked away to follow her.
Grandma Huzi: "Qiqi, please be safe." Huzi was still a child and it was not suitable to see such a bloody scene, so Shuanzi's wife locked her in a room and was not allowed to come out.
Little Qilin was not afraid of being taken away by the officers and soldiers at all. He laughed out loud after hearing this and waved excitedly to the old man: "Yes!"
They were captured by officers and soldiers, and those who didn't know it thought they had picked up money.
After they left, the neighbors started chatting in twos and threes.
Some people feel pity for Grandma Huzi, and some are gloating about her misfortune. In short, there are all kinds of people. Grandma Huzi naturally thanks those who are worried, but directly scolds those who have bad intentions.
When she was feeling irritable, what was wrong with scolding an unkind person?
No one dared to stay in the courtyard of the dead, and many people left without saying a word.
None of us are rich, and our home is in this alley. Even though there is a haunted house here, we still don't want to leave.
They simply feel that that courtyard is that courtyard and they are them, as long as they don't go near this courtyard in the future.
Grandma Huzi returned home and heard someone coming back. Shuanzi's wife, who was looking at Huzi, came out.
My own yard was rented out to others, but who would have thought that it would turn into a haunted house overnight, and the haunted house is still next to the house here.
In front of Jin Xiongxiong, this family can still say it's okay, but in private, everyone's face is downcast.
"You can't blame them for this," Grandma Huzi's wife said.
"Alas." Grandma Huzi sighed. The wrinkles on her face seemed to have deepened in less than a day.
This family is a reasonable family, so the sons they raise are naturally good, and the daughters-in-law they marry are also good.
It's not Jin Xiongxiong's fault, they all know it, but they just feel sad, sad about the yard
It's a pity that it is like that.
No one will live in a yard where people have died in the future. Even if it is cheap, few people will dare to take risks.
"That's it." Grandma Huzi characterized the matter.
Jin Xiongxiong and his party gave a lot of money, and they will definitely compensate some later. That's enough, that's enough.
After saying that, the whole family fell silent.
Jin Xiongxiong and his entourage were summoned by the emperor. They were still imperial merchants of the Tang Dynasty. Master Lu was indeed not qualified to interrogate them, so he proposed to the palace that he wanted to meet with them.
Those officials who were involved in the imperial examination fraud were extremely nervous when they heard that none of the assassins had returned, and when they heard that Mr. Lu had handed the papers to the palace. They did not care whether they would be exposed, so they went directly to one of the officials' homes.
We got together and discussed what we should do next.
What else can be done now that things have developed to this point? Could it be possible that the guy named Lu should be killed?
Mr. Lu is aware of the fraud in the imperial examination. He did not intervene before just because it was not his duty. Now that there is a public security problem in the capital, he must take action personally.
He could not interrogate the key personnel in the matter, so he naturally had to ask the emperor for instructions.
During this period, he would not say anything about the imperial examination fraud, but if the emperor asked, he would not hide it.
He didn't participate in any fraud in the imperial examination, so screw those people.
After receiving the news from Jin Xiongxiong, the emperor subconsciously fell silent and ordered Master Lu to take them into the palace and explain the matter clearly.
Those assassins were from their own country at first glance. It would be clear who the Jin Xiongxiong and his party had committed when they came here.
That old woman was definitely not that capable, and if it wasn't her, it was someone else. The emperor also knew that those assassins might have been sent by the officials involved in order to prevent Jin Xiongxiong from bringing the matter to him.
It is his business to minimize the big issue, but if these officials are so unscrupulous and deceive the superiors and subordinates, it is disrespect for the imperial power.
While the emperor was waiting for Jin Xiongxiong, he knocked on the table and ordered: "Send someone to close the city gate, and no one can enter or exit!"
Those officials would definitely run away if they knew the news now, and the emperor didn't want them to run away.
Those officials will have to deal with it sooner or later. As for Jin Xiongxiong...
