"That's enough, I'm warning you, don't talk nonsense anymore. The case has not been investigated clearly about whether he deserves death or not. How can we conclude that Mu committed murder intentionally in the past? Besides, what you signed is , I haven’t seen it at all.” The vegetable seller shouted in a low voice at the two people discussing it.
"Hey, it seems that this brother is on the side of the Jianghu people. Brother, don't be stupid. Let me tell you, none of these Jianghu people are good. They all bully us common people. They all deserve to die. You don’t even have to look at it, I just couldn’t stand the drug dealer trying to steal his business, so he deliberately killed someone.” The tall man said.
"Are you a god? Have you met all the Jianghu people in this world? The Jianghu people I have met are all good people. I can't say that he is not guilty, but at least until the results come out, he is still suspected. Besides, , If he himself was not guilty, but he was killed by you, wouldn't you also be murderers?" The vegetable seller said again.
The tall man pointed at the vegetable seller and said loudly: "You are so good at talking. If you have the ability to ask Chen Mengde to come down, go up and say it. You have been bullied to the point and you still speak for others. Are you stupid, big brother?" "
The vegetable seller also said loudly: "Why are you being bullied to your head again? I am judging the matter based on the matter."
There was just a "pop" sound, and the gavel in the courtroom was struck again. Meng Zulun shouted: "You are not allowed to make loud noises in the courtroom. If it happens again, you will be kicked out of the courtroom directly."
"Chen Mengde, you can start to defend Mu Xiannian."
Chen Mengde nodded, then turned to the vegetable seller and asked: "Brother, you just said that you didn't sign this joint execution document?"
The vegetable seller shook his head: "Don't say it was signed, I haven't even read it."
Chen Mengde turned to look at Meng Zulun and asked, "Sir, can you explain this?"
Meng Zulun said with a smile: "That's natural. The names on this joint execution document represent the attitude of 70% of the people in Xiwan Town towards this case. As for the remaining 30%, 20% remain neutral and are waiting for trial in court. The final result. As for the last 10%, there are too many people in Xiwan Town. I visited for three days and was able to ask for the opinions of most people. You can imagine the importance I attach to this case."
Chen Mengde nodded, raised his hands and said: "We all know Mr. Meng's good intentions. We also know that the people feel sad for the lives lost in this case, so we should find out the truth and not let it happen again. If anyone is wronged, the dead will rest in peace, as will the living.”
"Last year, I ask you again, do you remember the slap you gave me on the medicine head two years ago?"
Mu Xiannian nodded: "Not to mention that slap, I remember every detail from the beginning to the end of the whole thing clearly, and I don't dare to forget it at all."
Two years ago, Mu Xiannian came to Xiwan Town to treat many people for free. However, every patient's disease was almost the same, so Mu Xiannian said to the patient in front of him: "Old man, There should be a problem with the water source or food here. The diseases you suffer from are almost the same. It’s just that everyone’s physique is different, so the symptoms presented are slightly different.”
When the old man heard this, he was a little frightened and said in panic: "Ah, it shouldn't be the case. The county magistrate in our town attaches great importance to the lives of our people and checks the water sources and the crops of local farmers every once in a while. It shouldn't be the case. Bar."
When Mu heard this explanation from the old man, he smiled and said that it might be caused by the recent weather. After seeing all the patients, Mu Xiannian began to check the water source and crop problems by himself.
The water source is fine, the crops are fine, the soil is fine, and the weather here won't make the same group of people suffer from the same disease. Just when Makoto couldn't find his direction, a group of children started playing near him.
"Look, this is the magic pill that my mother bought me today. I will never forget it after taking it. It refreshes my mind, makes me not sleepy in class, and has full energy. My mother said that as long as I insist on taking it every day, I will become the number one scholar." It’s decided.” A child took out a bottle of pill pills from his sleeve and said proudly.
The other two children looked at the bottle of pill pills with keen eyes.
The fourth child smiled and said: "Tch, is your mother the only one who bought it for you? My dad also bought it for me. You see, my dad said this is an upgraded version. This pill of yours can only be the top pick." Master, I can cultivate in a minute and become a mountain person, and in the future I will trample you people down the mountain like ants."
The eyes of the other two children immediately turned from Zhuangyuan Danwan to Shanren Danwan. After all, this Zhuangyuan Master still cannot be compared with the Xianjia sect. The children like flying to the sky and escaping to the earth much more than they like the sound of reading loudly.
The first child pushed the fourth child and said angrily: "Do you think that's it? I think your pill is better than my rubbish."
The fourth child also pushed the first child: "My father said it is true, your number one pill is useless, but it is not as good as my pill."
The first child became so angry that he snatched the pill from the fourth child's hand and threw it to the ground.
"What are you doing!" The fourth child saw his bottle of pills broken on the ground. He pushed the first child to the ground with both hands and smashed his bottle of pills. The two children started fighting. The two children couldn't stop the fight and could only cry loudly next to them.
When Mu Xiannian saw this, he immediately ran over to break up the fight, pulled the two children away, and after listening to them explain the reason for the fight, he picked up the two bottles of pills that were broken on the ground and smelled them.
The two bottles of elixir were exactly the same, and the patients he saw in the morning also had this faint smell, which proved that all the sick people had taken this elixir. Mr. Mu Xinnian asked where he bought these pills for the children. Then, in order not to wrongly accuse the wrong person, Mu Xinnian studied these pills himself.
As expected, the results of the research showed that it was precisely because of these pills that the people became sick. After Mu Xi knew this, he set out for the address given by the child. The place where the pills were located was only a few steps away from his free clinic. A street.
Mu Xiannian opened the door and saw a man with his back turned to him, shouting loudly: "There are genuine pills that can strengthen the body, improve IQ, sleep peacefully, and can cultivate to become an immortal. There are only things you can’t think of, and there’s nothing I can’t buy. Sir, please take a look for yourself first. I’ll pack my things and tell me which one you like.”
Mu Xiannian put the two broken bottles of pill pills on the table and said in a deep voice: "Your two bottles of pill pills appear to have different effects on the surface, but in fact they are exactly the same inside. They just changed the packaging."
The Yaotou stopped what he was holding and turned to look at Mu Xiannian. Looking at his gloomy face, the Yaotou's attitude suddenly dropped and he said perfunctorily: "It seems that this guest is not here to patronize me." Ah, since I’m not here to patronize you, I don’t have anything to say to you, so you can go.”
Mu Xiannian suppressed the fire in his heart and said solemnly: "I am a passerby passing by here. I have been doing free clinics for the people here these days. Do you know that the medicine you sell almost makes them sick?" There are different physical conditions, and if it is more serious, it will hurt their lives in minutes. Stop selling immediately, and issue a notice to tell all your buyers, and finally surrender to the government."
The medicine head snorted and said without fear: "First, the pill pills I sell are health care products, not drugs, and will not endanger human lives. Second, you can just take two bottles of pills Maru came over and said it was from me. What evidence is there to prove that these two bottles of stuff were bought from me? Third, if you want to buy something, feel free to buy it. If you don't want to buy it, just get out and don't disturb my business. "
Mu Xiannian punched the table and roared: "Do you know the seriousness of this matter? If this matter is serious, it will really hurt a life. This is the only one in Xiwan Town, even the bottle The packaging is exactly the same, do you still want to quibble here?"
After being treated so cruelly by Mu, Yaotou hesitated for a while and shouted loudly: "You said so! I'm sure it was the black-hearted workshop that imitated my packaging. Don't cause trouble here until you leave." , I will report it to the official."
Mu Xiannian also picked up a bottle of pills on the medicine shelf and said angrily: "Okay, just report it to the official. When the county magistrate comes, he will be able to take the medicine on the table and the pills on the medicine shelf." Let’s take a drug test. If it’s my fault, I’ll apologize to you. If it’s your fault, just wait to go to jail.”
Of course Yaotou refused. He looked around and saw the wooden stick next to the table, so he grabbed it and shouted: "If you don't leave, I will fight you tooth and nail."
Yaotou picked up the stick and hit Mu Xiannian on the head. Mu Xinnian also struck out that palm in anger. That was the palm, and Yaotou died just like that.
After retelling the entire incident, Mu Xi couldn't help but regret it. He sighed and said: "I regret that I was so reckless and went to the drug dealer to confront the matter. If I could be more sensible and restrain my inner anger, , find the government in time to discuss this matter, and it will not cause an innocent life to be sacrificed. But sir, I know very well that my palm is really measured, and the position of the blow is not such that the medicine will be lost. The head is dead.”
"That's wrong, you didn't sacrifice one life with this palm, but three lives, the lives of a family of three. It's the lives of an entire family of three!"
"Who is speaking in the audience? Have you forgotten what you just said? Are you satisfied with asking me to expel you from the court?" Meng Zulun said sternly.
Liu Zhiqing walked out, raised his hands and said: "Reporting to your lord, it is the villain who is reckless. The villain also wants to abide by the laws in the court, but he is unwilling to do so. He just expressed his opinion on impulse. I believe this is the common people's fault. their views.”
"That's right, my opinion is exactly the same as Liu Zhiqing's."
"Yes, you can't kill people no matter what. Although he didn't directly kill Yaotou's mother and daughter, he can be considered as indirectly killing them."
The audience was talking again, but this time Meng Zulun did not sound the alarm, but allowed the discussion to gradually disappear.
"Chen Dazhuang, you can continue to speak." Meng Zulun said.
Chen Mengde smiled bitterly in his heart, how could he speak now. He took a deep breath and continued: "I would like to ask Master Ye, what is the autopsy report of Yaotou back then, and whether Mu's palm hit him in a place that did not hurt his vitals."
Ye Qingquan nodded: "Yes, we asked the doctor to check it. The position and strength of the palm would not kill an adult, and it was not found that Yaotou had any underlying medical conditions before his death."
"Hmph, why is this case so similar to a case these days? Oh, I think about it. The doctor at Licorice Hall prescribed the wrong medicine and accidentally killed the patient. Isn't this similar? The position of the palm was not so strong that it When an adult died, no other underlying diseases were found, but it was because of that palm." Liu Zhiqing said again.
"Liu Zhiqing, shut up!" Chen Mengde said in a deep voice.
"One life for one life, it is only natural. Oh, no, it should be one life for three lives, it is only natural." Liu Zhiqing said to himself.
Chen Mengde stared at Liu Zhiqing for a while, and then said: "My lord, as I said just now, the dead rest in peace, so do the living. Are we?"
"Alas, delayed justice is indeed not justice." Liu Zhiqing looked up to the sky and roared.
"Liu Zhiqing, do you have to force people to death?" Chen Mengde pointed at his junior brother and shouted angrily.
Liu Zhiqing sneered and retreated into the crowd.
Hearing the alarm bell ringing again, Meng Zulun said slowly: "It's almost time today, and I am fully aware of this case. I have to wait for a moment for the final result. Let me go into the back hall and think about it again." .”
Meng Zulun walked to the back hall alone without letting Ye Qingquan follow him. Ye Qingquan and Chen Mengde looked at each other, and Chen Mengde shook his head.
After a while, Meng Zulun returned to the court again and said solemnly: "In the case of Mu's murder of Yaotou in the past, although Mu did it to uphold justice, his inappropriate behavior led to Yaotou's death. Logically speaking, it is Okay, but the emperor committed the same crime as the common people. According to the laws of the Dayuan Dynasty, Mu Xiannian directly killed one Yaotou, and indirectly killed Yaotou's wife and daughter. The result of the trial in this case: Mu Xiannian was sentenced to death , and after ten days, he will be sent to the execution platform to be beheaded."
The gavel sounded again: "Quit!"
"mighty!!!!"
The people were cheering, and the murderer finally got the punishment he deserved. Chen Mengde is sad because he didn't get a chance to live for Mu Mu. He looked at Mu Xinnian, who smiled and nodded at him. Mu Xinnian knew that he had tried his best, and Chen Mengde also knew that he had tried his best, but what could not be changed was that no matter whether this was the final truth or not.
In the past, he had killed people, even taking three lives. This was a fact that could not be changed.
