Chapter 118 Secret Realm (28)
Ji Changyue walked into the study and saw the city lord frowning. Seeing Ji Changyue coming, the city lord quickly greeted, "Sit down quickly!"
"Why did the city lord call Chang Yue here?"
"Alas!" The city lord sighed, "You also met today. Cui Laosan said that his son was possessed by a ghost and asked me to find the immortal master, but it is not so easy to call the immortal master."
The last time the resentment demon was in an emergency situation, in order to prevent the resentment demon from raging, he had no choice but to take out his treasured communication talisman and ask the people of the Immortal Sect for help, but there was only that one communication talisman, and it was gone after it was used up.
Besides, Cui Laosan has always had a son, and he is very precious to his son. It has not yet been determined whether he is possessed by a ghost.
It's okay if it's not possessed by ghosts. If it is really possessed by ghosts, it must be solved no matter what, otherwise the people will be the ones who suffer in the end.
Ji Changyue asked, "What does the city lord mean?"
The city lord coughed twice and said, "I know that you are familiar with the immortal master. I wonder if the immortal master has left you a token or something. Can you contact me?"
There are tokens, but...
Ji Changyue suddenly remembered that Li Qingfeng had given her a token alone but did not tell her how to find him.
Do you have to rely on her to cross Wangxian Mountain?
At this time, Li Qingfeng, who was far away in the world of cultivation, seemed to have something. He looked at the sky and felt that he had forgotten something.
"Senior brother!" Bai Yu ran over, "Senior brother, Wang Yuan and I have taken over the task of collecting blood Ganoderma lucidum. Are you with us?"
Li Qingfeng was interrupted, and he forgot what he had just thought in a blink of an eye, nodded and said, "Okay, I just happened to have entered a bottleneck period recently, so I might as well go and experience it."
Knowing that there was no way to directly contact Li Qingfeng, the city lord retreated and looked at Ji Changyue with hope.
"I heard that the immortal master once invited you to join the immortal sect. I wonder if there is anything you can do, Changyue? If there is no way, it would be good to confirm whether it is an evil ghost who is doing the evil."
Yun Yan guessed right. Ji Changyue had just started practicing Qi. Although it was not very useful, he could still see things that ordinary people couldn't.
It's just a question of whether to help or not.
Song Nuan's family is indeed miserable, but there are no rules and regulations. If they were all like Yun Yan, wouldn't the world be in chaos?
Furthermore, Song Nuan is a ghost, interfering with the lives of living people, and his body is stained with blood evil. If Yunyan persists in his own way, Song Nuan will turn into a evil ghost sooner or later.
Ji Changyue didn't want to see this kind of thing happen, so she could only say a few words secretly, "Don't do bad things, and don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. The resentful demon was eliminated by the immortal master. The ghosts must not dare to get close. The city lord might as well check Cui Chai."
Why does the third child think that his son is haunted by a ghost? Maybe he will find out."
He must repay the blood debt he caused. Cui Jin did evil and the Cui family helped the tyrants. Ji Changyue wanted him to suffer the consequences, but if the situation continued, he might not be able to control it, so Ji Changyue wanted to get to the root of it.
Solve the problem.
The city lord listened to Ji Changyue's suggestion and immediately sent someone to investigate what had happened recently in the Cui family.
It was easy to collect what the Cui family had done in recent years, as if someone had prepared it. After a while, the soldiers from the government presented what the Cui family had done in recent years.
Over the years, the Cui family has secretly relied on the power of the city lord's palace to bully their neighbors, force good girls into prostitution, seize other people's property, and do all kinds of evil things. Song Nuan's family is just one of them.
"This is unreasonable!" The city lord looked at the charges against the Cui family and shouted angrily: "Bring Cui Laosan and his family to me!"
He had always thought that Wangxian City would live and work in peace and contentment under his rule, not to mention how prosperous and powerful it was. However, he did not expect that someone would oppress his neighbors under his nose, with such vicious methods.
The city lord was furious, and the soldiers of the city lord's palace did not dare to delay. They quickly escorted all the Cui family members. Even Cui Jin, who was in a coma, was not left behind and was carried to the city lord's palace on a stretcher.
It was getting late at this time, the mist was gradually rising, and the lights in the city lord's palace were brightly lit.
In the front yard of the city lord's palace, the Cui family knelt on the ground, and the palace soldiers holding torches surrounded them.
Not knowing that what he had done had been exposed, Cui Laosan thought it was the mayor who wanted to drive away ghosts for his son, and he thanked him profusely.
"Thank you very much, City Lord, for asking an immortal master to exorcise evil spirits for my son!"
The city lord came out of the study and saw Cui Laosan's appearance. He snorted coldly and threw the Cui family's accusations in front of Cui Laosan.
"Cui Laosan, do you know your guilt?"
When Cui Laosan heard the city lord's inquiry, he realized something was wrong. He tremblingly picked up the accusations on the ground. After just one glance, he trembled all over and knelt on the ground, "City lord, please forgive me, these are all slanders, they are all slanders!"
I, Cui Laosan, swear on my own life and property that I have never done such an unconscionable thing!"
"You also know that this is unscrupulous!" Seeing that he was still quibbling, the city lord was trembling with anger and kicked him hard. "The charges are clearly written. When and where did your Cui family do something?
, you still want to quibble!"
After being kicked to the ground, Cui Laosan got up, crawled on the ground and cried, "It's really unjust. Does the city lord have anyone to testify? This black and white writing is the easiest to falsify. If there is no witness, I will not recognize it!"
This is the cleverness of the Cui family. Anyone who provokes them or is targeted by them will all die. What they want is to die without any evidence.
If Song Nuan hadn't become a ghost, Yun Yan might not have been able to learn the truth about the death of the Song family so quickly.
Ji Changyue stood behind the city lord, watching Cui Laosan's sophistry. The female members of the Cui family knelt together and cried. Next to them lay the unconscious Cui Jin.
The city lord was infuriated by Cui Laosan's insistence on asking for witnesses. Since he could conclude that Cui Laosan's family had done it, he had investigated it. However, the Cui family's work was extremely clean, and there was really no direct witness.
The surrounding neighbors only knew that they had conflicts with the Cui family before their deaths, but they did not see the Cui family killing anyone with their own eyes.
"Since the City Lord has no witnesses, he cannot convict the Cui family out of thin air. The Cui family has been wronged. City Lord, please investigate..." Cui Laosan cried miserably, but Ji Changyue did not miss the look of pride in his eyes.
.
Judging from how Cui Laosan was targeting herself on the first day and couldn't help it, Ji Changyue didn't have the confidence to think carefully, so it was the Cui family who quietly did so many evil things.
But all the evidence currently points to the Cui family, and judging from Cui Laosan's appearance, even if he is not the mastermind, he must be a participant.
Seeing that Cui Laosan was stubborn and refused to admit it, the city lord frowned and waved his hand, "First put the Cui family into prison."
After that, he stared at Cui Laosan closely and said, "Lao San, you are my old friend who was in the city lord's mansion when I first came to Wangxian City to be the city lord. You know my temper. If you did everything, I will not forgive you."
It’s your fault!”
Cui Laosan seemed to have thought of something, and before he could feel proud, he shrank and lowered his head in silence.
"Wait!"
Just as the government soldiers were escorting the Cui family to leave, a voice interrupted their footsteps.
"Yun Yan, why are you here?" Butler Li asked.
"If he doesn't come, it will take a long time." Ji Changyue said.
Butler Li glanced at Ji Changyue in confusion, "What are you two going to do?"
Ji Changyue didn't talk to Butler Li anymore, but just looked at Yun Yan.
The city lord also looked at Yun Yan in confusion. He knew that this child was recommended by Butler Li to come to the city lord's mansion.
Under the gaze of everyone, Yun Yan walked up to Cui Laosan and said, "Who said there is no witness?"
"You..." Cui Laosan was frightened by his hateful eyes and took a few steps back. Thinking that he had nothing to do with him before he calmed down, "Yunyan, we have no grievances, why do you have to
Target me!"
"Last time you faked the account books and accused me of embezzling money, and now you're here again. What's your intention?"
"Have you found a way to deny it?" Yun Yan asked. Then he said to himself, "Yes, you have always been very good at it. It was easy to solve a small accounting problem. I just didn't know why I couldn't solve it at the time, so I allowed myself to slander you.
you?"
"Is it because there is no one behind you to help, and you are too stupid?"
"Yunyan, what do you mean?" the city lord asked. There was something in his words, and those present were not fools, so they could naturally hear it.
