"You guys stand down." Emperor Shengwen waved his hand.
The surrounding guards retreated, and only Eunuch Zhu stayed by his side.
He was Emperor Shengwen's confidant, taciturn, equivalent to his eyes, with only ears and no mouth to protect his safety.
Xia Luoran hesitated and looked at them complicatedly.
One is her father and the other is her aunt, both of whom are the closest people to her. She is afraid that they will quarrel if they disagree.
"You also step back." Emperor Shengwen said.
"Father, Auntie, it's rare for you to see me once, so don't make yourself unhappy over trivial matters." Xia Luoran said tactfully.
Get out of here.
Stand guard on the edge.
A pair of beautiful big eyes with deep sadness.
No outsiders were present.
Emperor Shengwen let go without any taboos, "If you want to practice, the arsenal in the palace collects all the techniques from all over the world, including inherited magical powers. If these are not enough, as long as you speak, I will take care of everything that exists in this world.
I can get it for you."
He didn't use "I", he used "I".
As a younger brother, I came to persuade my sister.
"You know, either you don't practice, you have to practice to be the best. Although inherited magical powers are good, but are they stronger than the magical skills?" the eldest princess asked.
"This is what Taizu left behind, and he passed down his teachings, strictly prohibiting future generations from practicing. Over the years, it is not that no one has practiced it, but their results have been very tragic."
Emperor Shengwen looked worried.
"The demonic energy breaks out, corrodes the sanity, transforms into a monstrous demon, and almost causes a catastrophic disaster. Are there many examples like this?"
"I am different from them!" said the eldest princess.
Emperor Shengwen sneered, "I admit that you do have a strong physique. The Phoenix Holy Body is very rare among the royal families in the past, and your cultivation talent is unparalleled. But so what? Once the sequelae of the gods and demons attack, do you think you can stop them with these?
?”
"Did anything happen to me during the days I was imprisoned in the prison?" the eldest princess asked.
But I was glad in my heart that I met Xiao Ran.
If not.
The demonic energy has erupted so many times. Without his help, she might have followed in the footsteps of her predecessors and become a tool for forbidden martial arts.
Thinking of him spanking me just now.
It was an unprecedented experience that made her feel shy. Fortunately, she was good at cultivating qi, so she was shy inside, but her face remained calm.
Emperor Shengwen was speechless.
The atmosphere was awkward again. The two of them looked at the lake, but no one spoke.
"In a few days, the sacrificial ceremony will be held. Please prepare yourself. When the sacrificial ceremony begins, I will have someone come to pick you up." Emperor Shengwen said.
Inform her as the emperor.
"Yes." The eldest princess responded calmly.
Turn around and look at him.
"There are so many princesses in the royal family, don't force Luo Ran to do something you don't want to do."
"Although I am the king of a country, I am also a father. You can rest assured." Emperor Shengwen flicked his sleeves and left.
Xia Luoran walked over quickly with a worried look on her face. She grabbed her catkins and asked, "What did you talk about? Why is my father so angry?"
"Children, please don't get involved in adults' matters," the eldest princess typed back.
Withdrawing his jade hand, he walked outside.
Xiao Ran and others waited here for a long time, and saw her getting on the carriage. Everyone protected her and walked towards the prison.
Halfway.
A young eunuch found him and called him to the side.
After taking a look at Xiao Ran, the little eunuch said arrogantly: "Are you Xiao Ran?"
"Yeah." Xiao Ran responded.
"The steward of Purgatory?"
"Is something wrong?" Xiao Ran asked back.
The little eunuch seemed dissatisfied with his attitude, but Xiao Ran didn't care at all. Seeing his cold face, he took the initiative to say: "It's okay, I'm going back."
"His Majesty ordered you to take good care of the eldest princess. If there is anything wrong with His Majesty, you are the only one to ask." He snorted coldly and turned around to leave.
Xiao Ran shrugged and didn't take him to heart.
Follow the convoy and walk at the back of the crowd.
Xiao Zhou was curious: "Brother Xiao, what does he want from you?"
Xiao Ran kicked him, "Don't pry around when you shouldn't ask."
Just as he was about to leave, he put his raised feet down again and looked at him seriously, "Go back and tell your aunt not to run to my place. I'm not familiar with her. For your sake these days, I won't follow you."
She usually cares about her, and if she does it next time, I will beat her."
Little monk Zhou Zhanger scratched his head, shook his head and followed.
Arrive at Tianlao.
Xiao Ran put the eldest princess into the cell, and when the dust settled, the others left one after another.
Just as he was about to lock the door and leave, the eldest princess stopped him, "What did Sheng Wen's people bring you?"
"Do you know everything?" Xiao Ran asked.
"Have you forgotten? I am very well informed."
"It's better for women to be dumber. Women who are too smart are annoying." Xiao Ran shrugged.
Lock the door and leave.
Just arrived at the ninth floor.
A jailer had been waiting here for a long time and then hurried over to greet him.
With a flattering smile, "Brother Xiao, you are here!"
"Is something wrong?" Xiao Ran asked.
"This is a piece of my mind. You can take it to drink tea." The jailer took out a twenty-tael silver ingot and handed it over.
Xiao Ran put away the money, took the tea he poured, and took a leisurely sip, "Tell me! What's the matter?"
The jailer handed over the document and said, "The above requested that the Vajra Demon be sent on his way. He is imprisoned in Purgatory. I cannot handle it with my limited cultivation. I am afraid that as soon as I enter, I will be corroded to death by the hellfire and filthy air of Purgatory."
Xiao Ran opened the document and took a look.
The King Kong Demon is at the third level of Xuanzong Realm, with a strong physical body and unparalleled strength.
He can lift a mountain weighing one hundred thousand kilograms with one hand, and ordinary swords cannot even break through his defenses.
Even if it is a torture instrument, it will take a lot of effort to break through his defense.
besides.
The skin must be completely removed. There may be defects in other places, but the skin must be intact.
Marked above.
Someone from the Spiritual God Department wants to use his skin to refine a treasure.
Close the document.
"Wait for me here." Xiao Ran said.
Taking the Xuan Kong bag and torture tools, he turned around and entered purgatory.
Arriving at Cell No. 118, Xiao Ran stopped.
Standing outside the cell, looking at King Kong tied to the wall, this monkey is different from ordinary apes. This monkey has golden hair, is tall and ferocious, and has explosive power filling its body surface, emitting billowing demonic energy.
Even though he was bound there by ten thousand years of black iron and the Pipa bone was sealed, there was still a ferocious aura coming out.
The surrounding hellfire and filthy air were blocked by his strong body and could not hurt him.
"It's indeed quite strong." Xiao Ran said.
Opened the cell door and walked in.
Looking at the Silver Sword Guard in front of him, he was wearing a silver sword robe and a silver lightsaber, staring at him playfully, seemingly not as scared as the other jailers.
King Kong said teasingly, "Aren't you afraid of me?"
"You have fallen to this point, why should I be afraid?" Xiao Ran asked back.
"Roar!" King Kong roared without warning.
The demonic energy on his body condensed into a huge ape shadow, appeared on his body, and roared ferociously at him.
Just when this wave of air was about to fall on Xiao Ran.
The golden light rippled and condensed into a golden air wall in front of him, blocking all the air waves outside.
"As expected of a member of the Divine Sword Guard, his magnanimity is not comparable to that of those trash." King Kong said.
Xiao Ran took out the torture device and said, "It's time for you to get on your way."
King Kong sneered, "You alone want to break through my defense?"
"Wouldn't you know if you try it?"
With a stroke of the long sword, silver light flashed from his neck and took him away.
King Kong still maintained his original appearance and had no feeling at all until his death.
At this moment, a remnant soul rushed out of his body.
Looking at Xiao Ran in fear, he fled outside with a demonic wind.
"Come back." Xiao Ran grabbed him from the air.
The evil-warming divine thunder turned into a big thunder net, pounced on him arrogantly, and caught him back.
Holding his remaining soul, he allowed him to struggle without moving at all.
"Do you believe it now?" Xiao Ran said.
"I am the registered disciple of Senior Sun. You cannot kill me, otherwise you will flee to the ends of the earth, and Senior Sun will not let you go!" King Kong threatened.
"I'll wait for him in the capital."
With a sharp squeeze of his palm, supreme power exploded, crushing his remaining soul.
A roll of blue light and a mark rushed out from the broken remnant soul, flying towards Xiao Ran's Tianling Cap at an extremely fast speed.
"Broken!" Xiao Ran pointed his finger.
The sacred fire of Tianyan rose from the fingertips, curled up, and burned the mark in an instant.
A furious voice came from inside, "I remember you, ancestor."
The Golden Book of Creation opened a page and showed three things. Now is not the time to look at them.
Put away the Heavenly Flame.
Xiao Ran didn't care, he had seen too many such things.
He walked to King Kong's body, looked at his body, and removed the skin completely according to the requirements in the document.
As for other things, they are optional.
He did not put it into the Xuankong bag and carried his body to Jiaolong.
Jiaolong also heard the scream that happened just now, and their cells were not far apart.
He was always worried that Xiao Ran would come and cause trouble for him.
Fearing what might happen, he looked at Xiao Ran outside the cell with a smile that was uglier than crying.
But when he saw the corpse he was carrying, his eyes lit up, and Long Sheng came back to life.
"Why did you come here?" Jiaolong was very good at talking.
"We haven't seen each other these days, do you know how much I miss you?"
"Then what?" Xiao Ran said.
"Come on! Don't be polite to me, just give me a breath." Jiaolong took the initiative and stretched out his right hand.
A pair of thieves' eyes fell on the King Kong corpse in his hand.
The sound of throat rolling and swallowing saliva can be clearly heard.
"Eat." Xiao Ran threw King Kong's body over.
"I knew this was a gift prepared for me." Jiaolong said.
He opened his mouth and swallowed King Kong's body.
After digestion.
This time he didn't break through again, but he became more refined in his Taoism and his demonic power became stronger.
He took his right hand back without leaving a trace and yawned, "You can sit down wherever you want. I'm a little sleepy and I'll take a nap first."
"I heard that dragon meat is good. It tastes delicious and contains plenty of vitality. Just try it." Xiao Ran joked.
When Jiaolong heard this, he became anxious and said, "That's nonsense! Who is this guy spreading rumors? Dragon meat is too unpalatable. It's more delicious than mutton, and smells worse than rotten meat. Whoever eats it will be unlucky."
He took the initiative to cut his right wrist and closed his eyes in pain.
"Don't be polite to me and let me bleed casually, or I'll be in a hurry with you."
"Aren't you sleepy?"
"You have the biggest problem. No matter how sleepy you are, you won't miss this moment. Come on, take a break." Jiaolong shook his head.
Xiao Ran smiled and put in ten bottles of dragon blood.
A burst of pure spiritual energy hit his wound, and it healed automatically within a few breaths.
Looking at him who was severely injured, his face was pale, he was lying weakly on the ground, and he turned around and left.
Return to the ninth floor lobby.
The jailer smiled and said, "Brother Xiao, is it done?"
Xiao Ran threw the Xuan Kong bag and torture tools to him and responded.
"Thank you, Brother Xiao! I knew that with your ability, Brother Xiao, there is no reason to fail if you personally take action?"
After a few words of flattery, I left happily.
Entered the quiet room.
Close the door.
He took out ten bottles of dragon blood and drank it. The dragon blood entered his belly and tempered his physical body. When the power disappeared, his physical body became stronger again. Although there was no breakthrough, his strength increased a lot.
Open the Golden Book of Creation and check this harvest.
One million and one million proficiency levels, one hundred years of martial arts cultivation, and one drop of Vajra Heart Blood.
Add 1.1 million proficiency points to Wanjian Guizong.
Property refresh.
Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Clan: Superb.
The martial arts cultivation has broken through to the eighth level of Xuanzong Realm, and there are still 870 years left before the next level.
Take out the heart blood of Vajra and condense the essence of Vajra's body, which contains powerful power and can be used to make elixirs.
"Go back and let Xiao Wu eat it." Xiao Ran said.
Exited the quiet room.
I stopped here in the lobby on the first floor and started chatting with the captain.
The punishment from above has been handed down, and I have nothing to do with Fu Xianhe. I still interceded on his behalf, and was fined half a month's salary, and his stay in the Tianlao was extended for one year.
The jailer who poisoned him has been dragged to the market and beheaded, and even his family members have suffered.
"Master Xiao, what happened this time is really thanks to you! If it weren't for you, my fate would not be much better." The captain was afraid.
"Be more careful in the future and don't let others take advantage of the loophole." Xiao Ran reminded.
"What happened this time was like a blow to the head, waking me up. In the future, I will personally deliver meals to important people, and I will never let something like this happen again."
Looking at Xiao Ran.
"Are you free tomorrow night? I've already said hello to Zuixianyuan and bought some of their top names who are planning to come out of the cabinet recently. What do you think?"
Xiao Ran patted his shoulder and smiled slightly.
“Work hard and you’ll always have time for drinking.”
Out of the prison.
A carriage had been waiting here for a long time, and a steward stood beside it. When he saw Xiao Ran coming out, he greeted him with a smile, "Is this Xiao Ran, Mr. Xiao?"
"Who are you?" Xiao Ran was puzzled.
"My name is Uncle Zhong, the housekeeper of Mr. Fu Xianhe's house. My master asked me to invite you over." Uncle Zhong introduced himself.
"I accept Master Fu's wishes, so there's no need to go. Could you please tell Master Fu for me and let him think about it." Xiao Ran shook his head.
"This, this..."
"Master Fu will not blame you." Xiao Ran said.
Seeing his persistence, Uncle Zhong had no choice but to give up, get on the carriage and leave.
Looking at the sky.
Xiao Ran said: "Do your job well."
After shopping around on the street and buying some decorations, I got an uninvited guest when I got home.
The visitor is Shen Lu.
Xiao Ran frowned, "Xiao Zhou didn't tell you what I said?"
Shen Lu stepped forward and reached out to touch Xiao Ran's face. Xiao Ran, expressionless, grabbed her palm and bent it hard. The pain caused her to cry out, "It's about to break."
"Answer me." Xiao Ran was unmoved.
"I told you! But I don't believe it."
"Do you really think I don't dare to do anything to you?" Xiao Ran asked.
"Is it wrong to like someone?" Shen Lu asked back.
"That's your own business, but your appearance has affected my life. Before, I was looking at Xiao Zhou's face and didn't want to argue with you. But you went too far and didn't even restrain yourself at all." Xiao Ran said. .
"Anyway, I just like you."
"I've only met you a few times. Even if we have a good impression, we can't say that we like you. And you should have some purpose in doing this, right?"
"..." Shen Lu was speechless.
"It seems that I need to help you wake up." Xiao Ran said.
Instead, he grabbed her neck and led her to Xiaolong Lake.
Shen Lu was nervous, "What do you want to do?"
"Go down and sober up." Xiao Ran waved his hand.
Throw her into Xiaolong Lake.
Plop!
There was a splash of water, and the lake water completely submerged her.
a while.
She emerged from the water, but before she could make another move, Xiao Ran took action again. With a wave of his right hand, the invisible power spread out, controlling the surrounding lake water, hitting the sky with waves, and then submerged her.
This happened a dozen times.
Shen Lu suppressed her anger and showed her head again. Before the surrounding water waves hit her, she shouted at Xiao Ran: "Are you finished yet?"
"You still want to pester me?" Xiao Ran said coldly.
"The ghosts care about you! Even if you invite me in a big sedan chair, I swear that I will never step foot here again."
"You're dreaming." Xiao Ran sneered.
Grab it from the air.
He grabbed her out of the lake and threw her to the ground.
"I'll give you three numbers and disappear from my eyes."
"You..." Shen Lu wanted to say a few harsh words, but seeing Xiao Ran's cold eyes, he swallowed back all the words that came to his mouth.
Leave Xiao Mansion.
By running the technique, all the water on the body will be evaporated, and the face will look ugly, as gloomy as water.
Looking in the direction of the Divine Sword Guard, he raised his fist and said, "Good nephew, you have done a good job!"
Without her interruption, life becomes peaceful again.
He called Jin Yi and told him that if Shen Lu dared to come here again, he would beat her out.
Don't be polite, as long as you don't kill him.
Xiao Wu kissed his calf with her head and stuck out her tongue, looking very cute.
"Become your true self." Xiao Ran said.
"Roar!" Xiao Wu roared.
After transforming into its true form, it still controlled its body shape and did not change too much. It was only about 10 feet tall. The whole body was flashing with red light and the divine fire of creation was burning, making it appear majestic and extraordinary.
Xiao Ran's heart moved and he sat on it.
It was quite soft. The divine fire of creation on its body, under Xiao Wu's control, did not burn his clothes.
"When you break through to the Xuanzong realm and can fly into the sky, you can ride on my mount." Xiao Ran said with a smile.
Xiao Wu screamed twice happily.
Get off it, take out King Kong's precious blood and throw it over.
Opening her mouth to swallow, Xiao Wu swallowed the drop of King Kong's heart blood.
The divine fire of creation burned, and more powerful power came out from its body, burning the sky and boiling the sea, and the surrounding space began to deform.
Wait for it to digest this drop of hard work, then make a breakthrough and upgrade to the second level of Grand Master.
"It's okay." Xiao Ran said.
Send it away and let it play on its own.
When they reached the door, a group of troops from the Holy War Division, led by Li Heng, rushed forward with a stern look on their face.
"What happened?" Xiao Ran guessed.
Think for a moment.
Walk towards the Divine Sword Guard.
When I got here, I happened to see Shen Yiming leading someone out, but Xiao Zhou and Taoist Xuanyang were missing.
Seeing Xiao Ran coming, Shen Yiming said, "You came just in time, I was about to ask someone to call you."
"What's wrong?" Xiao Ran asked.
"Now is not the time to talk. Come with me! I will explain to you on the way." Shen Yiming greeted.
"Yeah." Xiao Ran responded.
A group of people hurried towards Beicheng.
On the road.
Shen Yiming explained to Xiao Ran that something big had happened!
Concubine Jiang was making peace with the monks at Xianggan Temple. The news was revealed and reached His Majesty's ears. His Majesty was furious and ordered the matter to be investigated at all costs.
at the same time.
All the monks in Xianggan Temple were imprisoned together and interrogated on the spot.
Concubine Jiang was also secretly escorted to the palace, and she ordered the Divine Sword Guard and the Holy Warriors to take action together, vowing to find the monk who had made peace with her.
After listening.
Xiao Ran was shocked. The melon was so big that it almost stunned him.
"Shocked, right?" Shen Yiming asked.
"It's really shocking." Xiao Ran didn't hide it.
"When I first heard the news, I was just like you. I was shocked and couldn't believe it at the same time. Concubine Jiang's mother's family is a high-ranking family with hundreds of years of inheritance. It's not an exaggeration to say it's a family. Everyone in her family , holding an important position in the court, and the eldest brother is in charge of an army, a powerful army such as Dragon Blood Warriors."
He glanced back.
The people who met the Divine Sword Guard were a little far away from them, so the conversation here could not be heard.
Shen Yiming was relieved and continued: "She has a certain status in the palace and is quite loved by His Majesty. But the result is completely unexpected. She actually used the name of Shangxiang to have an affair with the monk there."
"Her family knows?" Xiao Ran asked.
"The news has been blocked, so we don't know yet." Shen Yiming shook his head.
"But they have all been suspended from their jobs, strictly prohibited from moving around, and confined to their homes. They are asking around to find out the reason. People who know about this at this time want to distance themselves from them, for fear of being targeted, even if they know. I won’t tell them either.”
"Who brought this incident to light?"
"According to a nearby pilgrim, he went to Xianggan Temple to offer incense, but unexpectedly saw someone suspected to be Concubine Jiang, making love with a young monk, so he reported it to the Beicheng County Yamen." Shen Yiming said.
Said in great detail.
"The county magistrate was shocked at the time and did not dare to delay for a moment. He rushed to the Zongren Mansion, found Zong Zheng and reported the matter. Then, he reported it to His Majesty."
Xiao Ran frowned, "An ordinary pilgrim also knows Concubine Jiang?"
"His daughter once worked as a maid in the Jiang family."
"Everything about this matter is weird. I'm afraid it was premeditated." Xiao Ran said.
Shen Yiming nodded solemnly, "I think so too, that's why I didn't let Xiao Zhou and Taoist Master get involved. Their background is too shallow, and if they get involved in this matter, even if the case is solved, it will be easy for others to deal with them. "
"Where are they now?"
"The sacrificial ceremony will be held in a few days, and we Divine Sword Guards will also participate. During this period, we must ensure the security of our respective areas. I asked them to patrol." Shen Yiming said.
"It's also good for them." Xiao Ran said.
When they arrived at Xianggan Temple.
It has been surrounded by a battalion of forbidden troops.
After taking out the identity token, the Imperial Guard released them, and Xiao Ran and others entered Xianggan Temple.
The people from the Holy War Division arrived before them.
But I just arrived.
Looking at Shen Yiming coming over, Li Heng sneered, "You guys are really haunting. I can see you wherever I go."
"You have such a bad mouth. If you want to get slapped, just say so and I will do it for you!" Shen Yiming retorted coldly.
"Humph!" Li Heng snorted coldly.
"I don't have time to waste time with you. You took advantage of the General's case last time. You won't be so lucky this time. I am bound to win."
He led the people and rushed towards the temple hall.
All the monks, including the handymen, were imprisoned there.
"We'll go there too." Shen Yiming greeted.
Arrived at the lobby.
Li Heng grabbed an old monk and was about to take him down for interrogation. When he saw them coming, he smiled proudly and said, "You are late."
He took the old monk into the side room.
After a while.
The shrill screams sounded, which was horrifying to hear. It seemed that he had been tortured.
Shen Yiming looked at the remaining monks coldly, "Who among you has the best relationship with Huiming?"
Huiming is the monk who had an affair with Concubine Jiang.
A group of monks raised their heads in panic and looked at the group of murderous gods in front of them. They were afraid and lowered their heads again.
"You're not talking, are you?" Shen Yiming sneered.
He walked over to the host and lifted him up from the ground.
"Are you the abbot of Xianggan Temple?"
"Amitabha." The host recited the Buddha's name without sadness or joy, and then closed his eyes.
"Very good! I like tough guys like you." Shen Yiming sneered.
Wave your hands.
Two men from the Divine Sword Guard rushed up and took the host down.
The monk on the side wanted to stop them, but when he saw them, he drew his long sword and pointed it at them coldly. If they dared to move, he would chop them down.
I was so frightened that I squatted on the ground again, holding my head in my hands very honestly.
"I will give you one last chance. Who has the best relationship with him? You can continue to remain silent. After ten counts, if no one answers, that will be your fate."
He suddenly clapped his palm and hit it on the pillar.
Bang!
The violent palm force destroyed the pillar and scattered dust on the ground.
The group of monks were so frightened that they trembled again.
A member of the Divine Sword Guard stood up and started counting.
When the count reached "nine", a young monk couldn't help but stood up and said tremblingly: "I, I know!"
"Shut up!" Huizhen shouted angrily.
"Shut up!" The divine sword guard next to him slapped him in the face and knocked him to the ground.
The sharp sword tip was pressed against his neck, and if he dared to move again, he would be sent on his way.
"Sir, will you let me go if I tell you?"
"Say!" Shen Yiming shouted.
The young monk was scared out of his wits. How could he dare to delay any longer? He pointed at Huizhen and said, "He is Huiming's senior brother. We are closest to him on weekdays, and our relationship with him is the best in the temple."
The divine sword guard on the side lifted him up from the ground.
Huizhen was quibbling and still wanted to deny it at this point, "My lord, you must not listen to the slander. Although I am his senior brother, my relationship with him is only average. You must believe me."
"Really?" Shen Yiming joked.
Without any warning, he kicked him in the chest. The force was so strong that he flew away, smashing the desk behind him and falling to the ground.
My heart felt sweet and I spat out a mouthful of blood.
Seeing Shen Yiming approaching again, Huizhen crawled back in fear.
"You still want to quibble now?"
"I, I..." He hesitated for a long time, but Huizhen didn't say a word.
"Bring him and me here." Shen Yiming ordered.
Entered another room.
in the room.
Huizhen knelt on the ground, kowtowed and begged for mercy.
Shen Yiming asked coldly, "Where is Huiming now?"
"I don't know, I really don't know. You must believe me, sir."
"Execution." Shen Yiming waved his right hand.
A blue sword guard dragged him out and screamed. After about five or six minutes, he was dragged in again and thrown to the ground like a dead dog.
"Are you going to continue to be tough?" Shen Yiming asked.
"I really don't know. If I knew where he was, I would have told him a long time ago." Hui Zhen burst into tears.
"Maybe he really doesn't know, why not change the question." Xiao Ran suggested.
"Yeah." Shen Yiming nodded.
"How long have Huiming and Concubine Jiang been together?"
Huizhen hesitated, not knowing whether to say it or not.
Seeing that Shen Yiming was about to be tortured and tried inhuman torture again, he was so frightened that he hurriedly said: "It's been almost two months."
"Tell everything you know. If you hide anything or lie, after I verify it, you will regret coming to this world." Shen Yiming warned.
A blue sword guard took out a pen and paper and prepared to record.
Huizhen said: "On the sixth day of last month, I remember it rained heavily that day. There were very few pilgrims in the temple and it was very deserted. None of us had anything to do. After finishing my homework in the afternoon, I went back to rest early. When I passed by Huiming's Zen Room , I heard a suppressed scream coming from inside. I was shocked at that time, and secretly hid in the crack of the window to check, and saw that he was actually having an affair with Concubine Jiang, and I fell to the bottom of my heart. "
"Then what?" Shen Yiming asked.
"I wonder if I have seen it wrong. Concubine Jiang has a noble status, so how can she be content with him? She hurried to the Zen room in the front yard and hid in the dark to check secretly. There were only the maids she brought with her in the Zen room, and there were others guarding outside. The bodyguard does not have her."
As I said this, I felt severe pain in my chest.
He screamed in pain.
"Useless thing." Shen Yiming cursed.
Injecting a spiritual energy into his body, temporarily stabilizing his injuries.
"Go on!"
"Yes." Huizhen responded.
Tell it again.
"I was very scared at the time. This was a serious crime that would destroy the nine tribes. How dare he do this? I hid in the room alone for a whole day, and then hid the matter in my heart, pretending that I didn't know. There was a trace of luck in my heart, and I prayed Concubine Jiang, don't come here again, this matter will be completely exposed."
Smiling bitterly, showing self-deprecation.
"I thought too much and took them for granted. Since that time, every three to five days, no more than seven days at most, Concubine Jiang will come over and try every means to remove the person and make peace with him. "
"Is it gone?" Shen Yiming asked subconsciously.
"No more." Huizhen nodded.
"Who else is there in Huiming's family? Besides staying in the temple, where else do you go on weekdays?"
"He is an orphan, and the temple is his home. In addition to doing homework, he spends the rest of his time meditating."
I asked a few more questions, but didn't get any more useful information.
Shen Yiming and Xiao Ran looked at each other and said, "How much of what he said do you think is true?"
"He doesn't dare to lie." Xiao Ran said.
When Shen Yiming was interrogating just now, he had been paying attention to Huizhen's eyes and the expression on his face.
He was confident that no one could escape his eyes.
Judging from the information in front of you, this is probably the case.
"What to do now?" Shen Yiming asked.
"Go to the Beicheng County Yamen and take the pilgrim to the Tianlao for interrogation, and then have him taken to the Tianlao."
But before that, there is one important thing to do.
Have someone bring the pen and drawing paper.
Shen Yiming said, "Describe his appearance."
"I, I'm not very good at speaking." Huizhen hesitated.
"If you don't remember, you will die!"
Huizhen was frightened and described Huiming's appearance through oral narration.
The person in charge of taking a look handed over the painted portrait. Shen Yiming took a look at it. The person in the painting was tall and thick and looked scary. Only Concubine Jiang was blind to fall in love with such things.
However, he still showed the painting to him, "Is it him?"
Huizhen shook her head.
"Come again! This time, please be more detailed and speak slower." Shen Yiming reminded.
After a while.
Looking at the painted portrait again, it is even more unsightly than before.
Shen Yiming didn't bother to read anymore and stared at him, "Can you do it?"
The blue sword guard said with a bitter face: "My lord, this is all I can do. No matter how dissatisfied you are, there is nothing I can do."
He scratched his head in frustration.
"It's okay if you ask me to fight, kill, and do some menial work. Isn't it embarrassing to let a martial artist use an embroidery needle to do embroidery?"
Shen Yiming looked at the remaining people, "Which of you can draw?"
Everyone shook their heads.
He sighed and rolled up his sleeves. He was just about to do it himself. Although his painting skills were not impressive, the paintings he painted were still better than his, right?
Xiao Ran took a step forward, "I'll do it!"
Without picking up his pen and paper, he took out the dotting pen and a piece of special drawing paper.
Seeing that he looked good and brought his own tools, Shen Yiming was curious, "Can you do this?"
"A little bit." Xiao Ran smiled.
Instructing Huizhen to describe it again.
As he described, his pen moved very quickly and he painted all the details.
When he finished speaking, Xiao Ran also stopped.
He put away his holy pen and showed the person in the painting to him, "Is it him?"
Shen Yiming stretched his head out of curiosity and saw that the monk in the painting was very young, with pink eyes, red lips and white teeth. He was very handsome, and his smile had a special contagiousness that could make people relax.
"It's him! It's him!" Huizhen said excitedly, pointing to the portrait.
"Absolutely awesome." Shen Yiming praised with a thumbs up.
"A lot of art doesn't weigh you down." Xiao Ran shrugged.
Shen Yiming assigned the task: "Now take people to the Yamen of Beicheng County. If they dare to stop them, they will be captured directly! Whatever happens, I will be responsible for it. I will escort him back to Tianlao, and then let someone take the portrait. Print a few more copies and post them on every street in the capital, making the whole city wanted."
"Yeah." Xiao Ran agreed.
The troops were divided into two groups.
He took half of his troops and rushed to Beicheng County Yamen.
Shen Yiming escorted Huizhen to Tianlao.
As for the monks in Xianggan Temple, they are still guarded by the imperial army.
As soon as they left, Li Heng got the news. After interrogating him for a long time, Huiming's master was almost killed by him, but he still didn't get any useful information.
After listening to the report from his subordinates, Shen Yiming and others took the people away.
Frowning, he looked at his confidants: "Do they have any clues?"
The confidant said: "What should we do now?"
Li Heng walked around the meditation room with his hands behind his back. After a while, he made up his mind, "Although I despise him, Shen Yiming still has some abilities, especially in handling cases. He has good abilities. "
The confidant flattered me at the right time, "I'm far worse than you, sir."
Li Heng nodded sympathetically, "But the current situation is special. We must act quickly to solve the case before them. We must not let them make great achievements again."
Looking at his confidants.
"Take people to follow Xiao Ran and see what he wants to do. As long as it is beneficial to us, just grab it. I will take the rest of the people and follow Shen Yiming to see what kind of medicine he sells in his gourd."
"Your Excellency is wise!"
Arrive at Beicheng County Government Office.
The government officials at the door stopped a group of them.
Xiao Ran took out his identity token and shouted: "The Divine Sword Guard is handling the case, please get out of the way quickly!"
The government officials stepped back and made way for a passage.
He led people into the county government office and rushed to the cells at the back.
When they arrived at the cell, they were stopped again. The leading jailer was very firm, "No one is allowed to enter without the order of the magistrate."
"Get out of the way!" Xiao Ran said with a cold face.
The surrounding jailers gathered around him and stood behind him, pressing their palms on the handles of the swords to prevent Xiao Ran and others from taking action.
"Very good." Xiao Ran sneered.
I was about to order someone to take them down and break in.
The county magistrate got the news and hurried over with his people.
Seeing that the leader was a Silver Sword Guard, he did not dare to be careless and greeted him with fists clasped, "May I ask your name?"
"Sword Guard Xiao Ran." Xiao Ran said.
"Can I take a moment to speak?" the magistrate asked.
The two of them walked to the edge.
"Master Xiao, what is the purpose of coming here?"
"Xiangan Temple."
The county magistrate's eyelids twitched and he was frightened. He did not dare to ask any more questions. He was afraid that the more he knew, he would be silenced later, so he kept his attitude very low.
"Everything is at your command."
"Yes." Xiao Ran nodded with satisfaction.
The two returned.
The county magistrate scolded with a sullen face, "You are so stupid that even Mr. Xiao dares to stop you, why don't you get out of here!"
The yamen officer made way for a passage.
The county magistrate said again: "I won't accompany you in. I will wait outside. If you need anything, just say hello."
Xiao Ran knew what he was afraid of, but he didn't point it out and led people into the cell.
Outside a cell.
The cell leader pointed at the person imprisoned inside and said, "That's him, sir!"
"Open the cell door." Xiao Ran ordered.
The cell head took out the key and opened the cell door.
Xiao Ran walked in and looked at him from beginning to end with sharp eyes. Facing Xiao Ran's scrutinizing eyes, the man cried out, rushed forward and knelt on the ground, "Sir, I really don't know that she is ginger……"
Just as he was about to say the word "Jiang Fei", Xiao Ran took action and knocked him out with a palm knife.
"Take him and let's go." Xiao Ran said.
(I have been writing until now. I really can’t stand it anymore. Let Xiaobai take a nap and then continue!
