When the government officials blocked the door and rushed into the house to search.
Cui Heng happened to come out of the guest room.
He was not surprised to see these government officials searching everywhere.
Last night, after the wedding banquet, Cui Heng went to find Mr. Li and inquired about information about this world.
This country is called Dajin and has existed for more than two hundred years.
This was the eleventh year of Emperor Shao Kang's reign.
There are states and pastoralists who are separatist to one side, and some county guards are revolting. Military disasters are everywhere in the world, and the people are in dire straits.
Disciples from all the major martial arts sects came out one after another, either to punish traitors and eradicate evil, or to assist one party.
Wang Tong, the prefect of Yanshan County who was in Fengzhou with Lu County, started an uprising five years ago.
This Wang Tong is good at attracting people's hearts, and he also won the support of Lianhua Temple and Dasheng Temple, the major martial arts sects, and expanded very quickly.
Today it has 400,000 troops.
According to the information that Mr. Li received from passing merchants, Wang Tong will soon march towards Lu County.
Juhe County on the Hong River must be the first place to be captured.
In this way, we can control the main waterways to transport troops and food, and then attack the next county until we completely occupy the entire Fengzhou.
This information gave Cui Heng a general understanding of the situation in this world.
It is clearly an ancient Chinese-like world with martial arts elements. It is in the final years of the dynasty and an era of heroes vying for hegemony.
I just don’t know if it’s on the level of The Legend of Heaven and the Dragon Slayer, or on the level of Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties.
Anyway, to Cui Heng, there is no difference.
Judging from the known information, there is probably no power in this world that can threaten him.
As long as he wanted to, it would be easy to push the entire Jin Dynasty flatly.
However, Cui Heng had no intention of killing everyone and suppressing the world.
That doesn't do him any good.
Not only will it add obstacles to his understanding of the seven emotions and six desires in the world, but it will also go against the path he wants to take.
As early as the foundation building period, Cui Heng had already decided on the path he wanted to take - to allow himself to retain his feelings as a human being and retain his mental state as a human being.
Keep your humanity!
I am a person living in the human world.
Rather than being an extraordinary immortal in the immortal world.
However, he still had to take care of what happened to the Li family this time.
After all, I just asked old Mrs. Li a lot of news.
Moreover, the Li family was obviously plotted from the beginning.
Last night, Cui Heng woke up in a state of tranquility and found that someone had deliberately dumped Hou San's body at the door of Li's house.
The team of government officials had already begun to assemble at dawn.
Everything is prepared in advance.
The reason why he didn't stop it at that time was because he wanted to cure the root cause.
Not just treating the symptoms.
As for how to manage it.
it's actually really easy.
…
In the Li family's residence.
Dozens of government officials filed in, then dispersed and rushed into each house at an extremely fast speed, rummaging through boxes and cabinets to search.
"Master Chao, Master Chao, what are you doing here?"
The old man of the Li family ran over tremblingly, found the leading yamen servant, and begged in a low voice, "We definitely didn't kill Hou San!"
As he spoke, he stuffed money into the government servant's hand.
Local government officials are jealous of money. In most cases, stuffing money is the best solution.
"Presumptuous!" The leading yamen officer roared angrily and grabbed the hand of the old man from the Li family. He sneered: "Old man, you are so brave! You actually dare to openly bribe an official, arrest him!"
"yes!"
Immediately, several government officials ran over, pulled out the rope from his waist, and tried to tie up Mr. Li.
"you you?!"
Mrs. Li's face suddenly turned pale and he looked at the leading officer in disbelief.
He didn't expect such a result, and now he finally understood that his family was clearly being manipulated!
But why?
I have done good deeds throughout my life, and 70% of the money I earn every year is used to help poor people. I never make enemies with others. Who would plot against my family?!
"Father!" Li Cheng also ran out. When he saw his father being arrested, he quickly went over to plead for mercy, "Master, this official, my father is old and it is not suitable to be tied up!"
"The law is ruthless! He openly bribed officials and deserves to be punished!" The leading yamen officer sneered, ignoring Li Cheng at all. His eyes kept scanning the other yamen officers, as if he attached great importance to the results of the search.
"How could this happen? Why did this happen?" Li Cheng sat slumped on the ground. This was obviously a happy day, so why was his family suddenly about to be destroyed? "Who is it? Who wants to harm my Li family?"
"It's not good, it's not good!" At this moment, a maid from the Li family ran over and said to Li Cheng, "Master, it's not good, madam, she ran away!"
"What?!" Li Cheng felt as if he was struck by thunder when he heard this. He was stunned and trembled, "Madam, how could she be possible? This is impossible!"
When Mr. Li heard the news, he immediately became unsteady on his feet, rolled his eyes and almost fainted. Fortunately, he suddenly felt a warm current rising in his body, and he did not faint.
"It seems that your wife is the murderer. She must have fled out of fear of crime!" The leading officer sneered: "Most of your family are accomplices! Arrest everyone here and take them back to the Yamen to see the county magistrate!"
"Wait a minute!" At this moment, Cui Heng came over and stopped the government servant who was about to arrest someone.
"Are you the top expert from the Li family's wedding banquet?" The leading yamen officer didn't show any fear when he saw Cui Heng. He still looked aloof and aloof, "You just said wait a minute. Could it be that you wanted to stop me from handling the case?"
"Of course not." Cui Heng smiled and said, "I just want to tell you something."
"Speak!" the leading officer looked coldly.
"Monkey Three was killed by me, and it had nothing to do with anyone else." Cui Heng was still smiling.
"What?" The leading officer was stunned for a moment, then grinned, "Haha, okay! Interesting, since you dare to surrender yourself, I will let them go. Untie them!"
Only then did Mrs. Li and Li Cheng loose their ropes.
Both of them looked at Cui Heng with deep gratitude in their eyes.
Although they didn't know why Cui Heng came forward and confessed, there was no doubt that it saved the lives of the entire Li family.
"It's time to tie me up now." Cui Heng directly stretched out his hands.
"How brave!" The leading yamen officer sneered: "I want to see what tricks you, the top master in the world, are going to play! Tie him up and take him back to the county yamen!"
The government officials came and left just as quickly, leaving only the Li family's house turned upside down and in a mess.
Mrs. Li and Li Cheng stared blankly at the back of Cui Heng being taken away. After a long silence, they knelt down on the ground together and kowtowed respectfully in that direction.
"Thank you so much, my benefactor!"
…
Xiangxi Town is not far from Juhe County, and it only takes half an hour by waterway.
After the leading yamen officer returned to the county yamen with his people, he immediately had Cui Heng thrown into the prison and locked up with a group of death row inmates.
Then, he went to see the Juhe County Magistrate.
However, before going to see the county magistrate, the leading government official grabbed a handful of his hair in the room, pulled it on his face, and then took off a human skin mask, revealing his true face.
This is a young monk who looks to be in his twenties, his eyes are as calm as water, and he has no trace of his previous violent and irritable appearance.
He put on a monk's robe and went to the backyard of the county government office.
At this time, the county magistrate was fishing, with his back to the young monk, he said calmly: "Have you found the Li family's "Secret Book of Feixia Sword Head"?"
