Chapter four hundred and twenty-two, adults will definitely be a good prison officer
Lu Feng smiled calmly: "This is nothing. Since you are my subordinates, I naturally have the responsibility to take care of your lives."
Wang Wei said: "We all know how dangerous it is to trespass on other people's inner demons. You risked your life to save me regardless of your own safety. This is not something ordinary prison officials can do."
Shan Wu cupped his fists and apologized: "The four of us brothers were originally quite dissatisfied with you for hanging around the theater and not thinking about government affairs, but after this battle, we are convinced and have no objections. If you like opera, we are willing to accompany you and protect you."
Lu Feng was stunned for a moment. It turned out that this was the reason why Wang Wei and the others were so indifferent when they came back the day before yesterday. He couldn't help but feel a little funny at the moment, and he also admired the serious and responsible attitude of the four people.
"There is an old acquaintance of mine in the theater, and I will introduce you to him someday." Lu Feng felt that it was necessary to explain, so as not to tarnish his image as a tall and majestic prison officer.
"I see," Xing Qi said happily, "I'm just saying that you don't look like such a playboy."
Shan Wu smiled slightly: "That's not what you said the day before yesterday."
Zheng Ba also said: "It was us who preconceivedly labeled you as a bad person. In fact, you stayed up late that night to study and stayed in the prison room for most of the night. We should believe that you will definitely be a good prison."
official."
Wang Wei nodded in agreement and said to Lu Feng: "Sir, if you need any help with prison affairs, just ask us. We have read most of the materials in the prison room and have a deep understanding of them."
Unlike Lu Feng who was alone in reading through his memories, Wang Wei and the four of them performed their respective duties when organizing the prison room. They memorized and summarized the areas they were good at, and the details were clearer.
Lu Feng thought for a while and said, "I really need your help to check something out. You first go to the prison room and sort out all the books about mountains and rivers. Don't let go of the dilapidated and ancient ones."
"Yes!" Wang Wei immediately responded without asking the reason for doing so.
Shan Wu and the others subconsciously followed Wang Wei and prepared to walk to the prison room together, but were stopped by Lu Feng.
"You three stay, I have something else to say."
"Sir, are there still tasks to be delegated?" Shan Wu asked.
Lu Feng saw that Wang Wei had entered the prison room and immediately said, "What I want to say is about your eldest brother's inner demons."
Shan Wu and the other three couldn't help but look a little more serious when they heard this.
Lu Feng explained: "Wang Wei's inner demon has not been completely eliminated, it has just been sealed. There is still a risk of becoming a demon."
Shan Wu wondered: "But the elder brother's cultivation has clearly broken through to the Five Elements and Three Qi realms. How could he have made such a big improvement if he hadn't defeated his inner demons?"
Lu Feng couldn't help but admire him when he heard this, and explained: "Wang Wei...has been suppressing his cultivation and restraining his realm."
Shan Wu was shocked: "You mean... Big brother, he suppressed three small realms?"
You must know that before the inner demon illusion appeared, Wang Wei's cultivation level could only reach the Condensation Stage.
Lu Feng shook his head and sighed: "I'm afraid it's more than that. Wang Wei must have used some secret method to forcibly destroy the excess spiritual energy to suppress his realm."
According to Lu Feng's speculation, if Wang Wei had made a normal breakthrough from the beginning, he would now have at least the strength of the Five Elements and Four Qi Realm. If he defeated his inner demon, he would even be able to touch the threshold of the Earth Soul Realm.
When Shan Wu heard this, his whole body felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He had been suppressing his cultivation. He could best understand the pain of restraint. It was like being pricked by a needle every day. Once the spiritual energy needle was used, the prick would become deeper and deeper.
deep.
He was already in so much pain just by suppressing one realm. It's hard to imagine the pain Wang Wei experienced.
In order for the four brothers not to be separated, Wang Wei sacrificed too much.
Only then did Zheng Ba and Xing Qi learn that Shan Wu and Wang Wei had been suppressing their cultivation. The guilt and self-blame in their hearts was unspeakable, and their desire for strength was unprecedentedly high.
"What exactly is Big Brother's inner demon, and why is it so difficult to deal with?" Shan Wu asked worriedly.
Lu Feng looked at Shan Wu.
Shan Wu's expression was shocked, he couldn't believe it but felt reasonable and said: "Brother's inner demon is us?"
Lu Feng nodded and reminded: "If you don't want your eldest brother to become a demon, then work together to become stronger. It's your turn to protect Wang Wei. Don't let him worry and take care of you."
"yes!"
At this moment, the hearts of the three of them were as firm as ever.
Lu Feng took out a formation disk and handed it to Shan Wu, "This is the formation disk of a spirit gathering array. You can use it to assist in your cultivation."
Shan Wu took the formation plate, and Lu Feng looked at Zheng Ba and Xing Qi again, "Especially you two, they should be only one step away from the Five Elements Realm. Just practice with peace of mind in the past few days and strive for a smooth breakthrough."
.”
Zheng Ba and Xing Qi nodded after hearing this, but they didn't have much confidence in their hearts. Although it was only one step away, after all, the Ningpan Realm to the Five Elements Realm was a leap between great realms, and a breakthrough was not easy.
Shan Wu's hand holding the formation disk suddenly trembled, and he looked at Lu Feng in shock: "Sir... Sir, this formation disk..."
"What?" Lu Feng asked confused.
"Earth Grade Spirit Gathering Array?" Shan Wu shouted in surprise.
"It's not a ground product," Lu Feng corrected: "It's just close to a land product, and it's just right for you."
Zheng Ba and Xing Qi both had fiery eyes. It was a pseudo-grade spirit gathering array. With this treasure, how could it be so difficult to break through the five elements with just a condensed plate?
Shan Wu suppressed the excitement in his heart and hesitated: "Sir... this is too precious."
Zheng Ba and Xing Qi looked at each other. Although the enthusiasm in their eyes had not faded, their rationality had returned. As Shan Wu said, this was really too precious.
The value of a nearly earth-quality Spirit Gathering Array cannot be compared to the value of an Origin Stone, and Lu Feng has already given out an Origin Stone, so how can they be so embarrassed to accept this?
Lu Feng said calmly: "Compared to your breakthrough in strength, a spirit gathering array is nothing. If you want to continue to stay by my side, the Five Elements Realm alone is not enough."
A few days ago, Shan Wu and others were still thinking about whether it would be unfair to be the prisoner based on their strength, but in the blink of an eye, it became clear that even if they wanted to be the prisoner, the other party might still despise them for their low strength.
"We will not let you down," Shan Wu said with high spirits.
After explaining the situation of Wang Wei's inner demon, Lu Feng took out the ancient map obtained from the heart-protecting armor and handed the piece marked "Arm Cloud Mountain" to Shan Wu.
"While you are practicing, check for me where this terrain is now."
Like Wang Wei, Shan Wu did not ask for specific details after receiving the map. No matter how curious he was, he would not inquire.
…
Outside the prison gate, there was suddenly a sound of drums.
"Someone beat the prison drum!" Shan Wu raised his head and looked at Lu Feng.
"Take care of the prison affairs first," Lu Feng walked away. Wang Wei heard the noise and walked out of the prison affairs room.
Prison drums are set up by each prison house for ordinary people to complain about their grievances. The sound of the prison drum usually means that disputes are coming to the door.
Lu Feng put on his prison robe and came to the lobby. People were already crowding outside the prison building. The person who played the drum earlier was a middle-aged woman in her thirties, still holding a drum stick in her hand.
In front of the woman, there was the body of an adult man. The man was covered in white cloth and his face was bruised and black.
"A life was lost?!" Wang Wei frowned upon seeing this.
Lu Feng looked a little serious. Since the establishment of prisons in various places, the number of murders and crimes has been greatly reduced. Unexpectedly, as soon as he took office, before his buttocks were even hot, people would be killed in the area under his jurisdiction.
Lu Feng walked up to the prison hall and sat down at attention. He raised his hand to pick up the wood on the table and slapped it hard.
"Send the order to start the trial!"
Wang Wei and the other four heard the words and repeated them loudly outside the door.
"Miscellaneous people are waiting outside the prison hall to listen and are not allowed to enter," Shan Wu was in charge of order.
Zheng Ba and Xingqi carried the deceased into the hall and ordered the women to come forward and answer.
After everything was arranged in order, Wang Wei and Shan Wu stood on the left and right in front of Lu Feng's case table, while Zheng Ba and Xing Qi stood in the hall respectively. One person was responsible for the order outside the hall and strictly prohibited noisy people, while the other person took care of the women in the hall.
.
Lu Feng banged the gavel again and stared at the woman: "Who is here and what is the matter?"
The woman cried and reported back: "The woman's name is Wang Cuihua. Lying on the ground is the husband of the woman. He went out to buy vegetables last night and unexpectedly met the second son of the Su family. He was beaten to death by the thief.
Please, the prison officer, please make the decision for the civilian women!"
Lu Feng's expression flashed with surprise. He had some understanding of Su Mo, the second son of the Su family. Although he was a bit arrogant and naughty, he couldn't even be called a playboy. How could he beat someone to death for no reason?
But the woman's sad expression doesn't seem to be fake.
Lu Feng looked at Xing Qi and signaled: "Take the body to the mortuary to determine the cause of death."
When Xing Qi was practicing in the Hell Spirit Hall, he mainly studied the pathology of drug poisons, and he had rich experience in the formation of injuries and causes of death of soul masters.
After Xing Qi took the body away, Lu Feng continued to interrogate Wang Cuihua to learn more about the cause and effect in the future.
Wang Wei stood aside and interjected softly: "Sir, do you need to summon Su Mo to come for questioning?"
Lu Feng nodded and handed the prison officer's order to Zheng Ba, asking him to go to the Su Mansion to 'invite' Su Mo. With the prison officer's order, Su Mo would never dare to resist law enforcement.
From Wang Cuihua's words, Lu Feng had a general understanding of the cause of Zhang Aniu's death. Zhang Aniu was a native of Tianyuan City. Due to his limited talent and poor cultivation, he did not even have the strength to gather spirit. He went out to buy groceries alone yesterday evening.
She had an argument with Su Mo in a remote alley, and was subsequently seriously injured by Su Mo. Wang Cuihua waited at home for a long time and went out to look for Zhang A Niu. When she found Zhang A Niu, the latter was already dying, swaying this way and that, and died after a short period of support.
And died.
Subsequently, with the encouragement of neighbors and villagers, Wang Cuihua went to the Su Mansion overnight to ask for an explanation, but the Su Mansion refused to hand over Su Mo, denied that she had killed Zhang Aniu, and kicked her out of the mansion.
