Under the majesty of Fang Jian, Lei Jiang, and Lei Bing, Lan Hongying did not hold on for long before she confessed everything.
She told several things. In addition to the things between Hu Meng and her, he also told about Hu Meng and Ao Ren's feud, as well as Hu Meng letting her steal the Kuixing Inkstone, and Hu Meng teaching her Taoism. .
But after hearing this, Fang Jian shook his head in disappointment, because the things Lan Hongying explained were not big things.
What Fang Jian wants to know is the origin of Hu Meng's Hundred Ghost Bottle. Now it seems that the only way to interrogate Hu Meng is.
As for Lan Hongying... Fang Jian cast his eyes on her and then said: "Lan Hongying, although you are attached to Hu Meng, you have never been married to him and have never performed the ritual of worshiping heaven and earth, so you have not violated the laws of heaven. , now I let you go. But you
You need to remember that you must not rely on your own magic power to do evil, otherwise the laws of heaven will not tolerate it. You are now a monk instead of a mortal. It is best to find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to settle down and live there so that you can practice well. "
Lan Hongying was startled when she heard this, and then she was overjoyed. Her whole body was trembling with excitement and she saluted Fang Jian: "Yes, I will remember it, I will remember it! Thank you God for your tolerance!"
This was also her luck. At first, she dreamed that Hu Meng would give her a status and they would get married, so that she would have a backer.
However, Hu Meng never took this step with her, but this allowed her to avoid this disaster. Tiantiao has two criteria for judging whether an immortal official is married.
First, whether the two people worshiped the church and worshiped heaven and earth. If they worshiped the church and worshiped heaven and earth, then the two people are actually married and can be punished according to the laws of heaven.
Second, children, if two people have children, then even if you do not worship the church or heaven and earth, then it is considered a violation of heaven and earth.
So this is also why, when Fang Jian worshiped heaven and earth with Guanyin in white in the Haolan Realm in order to break the law, he had to use the suona to 'sitting down' once, and then cleanse the cause and effect.
Although it was an 'emergency escape' for a reason, and strictly speaking it was not a violation of heaven's rules, Fang Jian still had to do it.
At this time, Fang Jian had already checked and found that Lan Hongying was not pregnant with Hu Meng's child. This was probably a response that Hu Meng had already prepared.
After all, once they are caught, the two of them have not worshiped heaven and earth, and have no children. At most, they can be regarded as "living with a female monk", a crime that does not lead to death.
"Let's go." Fang Jian said to Lan Hongying.
Lan Hongying kowtowed and bowed to Fang Jian again, and finally ran out of the cave. The magic power of the God Refining Realm gathered in her feet, and she went down the mountain like the wind.
Lan Hongying will definitely run away now, because she will definitely not be able to survive in Nanzhou. Her backer Hu Meng is gone, and she offended Ao Ren for stealing Kuixing Inkstone. It would be a bit stupid not to run away at this time.
Fang Jian looked at Lan Hongying's leaving figure, and then turned around. The law of heaven was strict, but it would not implicate a weak woman who could not control her own destiny. Besides, she had not done any great evil.
"Huh?" Fang Jian paused and thought to himself, "Will anyone call me a bitch in the future?"
But Fang Jian quickly laughed it off. He didn't care. Compared with the justice and order of the Three Realms, everything was insignificant.
Finally, Fang Jian came to the side room. He first raised his hand and used thirty-six thunderbolts to weave a thunder net to seal the Hundred Ghost Bottle, and then put it into the cloud pattern Qingfeng sleeve bag.
Then he turned around, pointed at Hu Meng and said, "Bring him back to the Lei Department for interrogation."
Lei Department, Taiyi Thunder Division.
"Hu Meng." Fang Jian said to Hu Meng who was kneeling below: "Please tell me all the things you have done that violate the laws of heaven and earth, so that you can have a good time. Otherwise, if you search the soul, you will inevitably suffer some pain. "
Hu Meng raised his head, looked at Fang Jian and asked: "Master Hongqing, if I take the initiative to confess, can you forgive me for my crime?"
Fang Jian said: "Hu Meng, you have to know that your current crime is not serious. The only major crime is that ghost bottle. The ghosts released by that ghost bottle have not yet caused trouble in the world and have not become a big crime." Woe, if you confess all your crimes as soon as possible, you will not die."
When Hu Meng heard Fang Jian's words, his frightened heart suddenly calmed down a lot, and his head became clearer.
This is indeed the case. His crime was not too serious in the first place. He had been careful in everything he did before. Even Lan Hongying only slept with her after she entered the Qi Qi training realm.
Thinking of this, Hu Meng immediately said: "Master Hongqing, I will confess, I will confess everything."
Upon hearing this, Bai Xingjian stood up straight attentively and began to record the crimes Hu Meng confessed.
Half an hour later, Hu Meng finally explained everything. At this time, he also breathed a sigh of relief. After explaining all the crimes, Hu Meng only felt an unprecedented sense of relief.
"Oh? It turns out that this ghost bottle is called the Hundred Ghost Bottle, and you borrowed it from the Lotus Mother on Lingji Mountain." Fang Jian said, looking at the Hundred Ghost Bottle on the table in front of him.
Hu Meng said: "Master Hongqing, not only me, but many immortal officials around Lingji Mountain have close contacts with Mother Lotus."
Fang Jian said calmly: "You don't have to drag others into trouble. The rules of heaven do not stipulate that immortal officials cannot associate with loose immortals or monks. What is important is whether any of them are like you, borrowing treasures from the hands of the Lotus Mother to act recklessly."
But at this point, Fang Jian said again: "But according to what you said, Mother Lotus did violate the laws of heaven. She secretly released ghosts into the world and interfered with the promotion and transfer of immortal officials... It seems that what Feng Ling said It’s not out of nowhere.”
When Fang Jian went to Lingji Mountain to collect firewood, it was indeed to collect firewood for Mei Xianzhang to cook. Secondly, he heard rumors from Feng Ling that many immortal officials in the entire Nanzhou had an affair with a demon. Immortals have close contact with each other.
In fact, this is not a big deal. Fang Jianye and Cen Biqing are close friends, and the immortal official is not a stupid person. Who doesn't allow the immortal official to have a few friends?
But what Feng Ling said later aroused Fang Jian's alert, that is, the demon immortal in Lingji Mountain seemed to be doing something very big through these immortal officials.
But what the specific matter was, Feng Ling couldn't tell clearly. He had only occasionally come into contact with one of the immortal officials.
That's why Fang Jian and his party came to Ling Jishan a few days ago, but he didn't expect that Hu Meng would actually have contacts with the Lotus Mother, and could even borrow the Hundred Ghost Bottle from there.
However, now that Hu Meng has fully confessed his crimes, the sentence can be pronounced.
Fang Jian stood up and said to Hu Meng: "Hu Meng, now I will punish you according to the "Tian Tiao Jade Law: Immortal Official Law". You have violated Article 33 of the Immortal Official Law: Immortal officials act without authorization. If a ghost is kept in the house, he will be punished with a hundred thunder and whips. If a ghost is allowed to enter the human world, his official status will be deprived of him, and he will be sent to Leize Prison and sentenced to five hundred years. If a ghost hurts people and causes maiming and death, they will be fractal and thrown into the animal realm for ten lives. pig."
After Fang Jian finished speaking, he counted his fingers and said: "Until you are brought to justice and tried, the ghosts you released have not harmed anyone, so now I will make the following decision: you will be deprived of your sixth-grade official rank and demoted to He was a casual cultivator and was sent to Leize Prison to be sentenced for five hundred years. As for your minor crimes, they are not stipulated in the laws of heaven and jade. I will not punish you and leave them to the underworld for liquidation in the future. This is my order."
Hu Meng lamented, but this result was already very good. At least with his Yangshen realm cultivation, he could still be free for a few more years after coming out of the Five Hundred Years.
As Hu Meng was dragged down, the Hu Meng case was over, and everything that happened next had nothing to do with him.
Bai Xingjian also returned to the Three Realms Inspection Department after bidding farewell, but Fang Jian did not leave the Lei Department immediately. Instead, he studied the Hundred Ghost Bottle with Jianhe, the Prime Minister of the Taiyi Thunder Department.
"How does this thing contain ghosts?" Fang Jian touched his chin and stared at the Hundred Ghost Bottle and said.
Jian He said: "I'm afraid it's a spell. Didn't you ask Hu Meng just now?"
Fang Jian slapped his head and said, "Hey, forget about this."
So Fang Jian hurriedly asked someone to bring Hu Mengxuan back, and after asking for the spell to release the ghosts, he was taken away again.
After getting the spell, Fang Jian immediately cast the spell, hoping to recall the ghosts that had invaded the human world.
But soon he realized a problem, "This is heaven."
Jian He smiled and said: "And it's Lei Bu."
Heavenly Court, Thunder Department, if the Hundred Ghost Bottle can still be used here, that would be the biggest problem.
The moment it entered Nantianmen from the Baigui Ping and entered the Lei Department, it had already been suppressed.
"Alas, it can only be used in the mortal world." Fang Jian said as he was about to pick up the Hundred Ghost Bottle.
But Jian He immediately stopped him, and stretched out his hands to grab the Hundred Ghost Bottle, "Master Hongqing, now this Hundred Ghost Bottle is an evidence, and such a magic weapon can enter the thunder from it." The moment it is removed from the Ministry of Lei, it can no longer leave the Ministry of Lei and must be sealed on the spot by the Ministry of Lei."
Fang Jian held his head with both hands. He also thought of this, "I..., what to do with those ghosts!"
Those ghosts haven't hurt anyone yet, but no one can guarantee that they won't hurt anyone in the future. Now that Hu Meng has been sentenced, the subsequent events have nothing to do with him.
So now the responsibility of Baigui Ping falls on Fang Jian. If those ghosts hurt people in the human world, they will definitely be blamed on Fang Jian.
Jian He chuckled and said, "I have no control over this. I also act according to the rules. Now this Hundred Ghost Bottle must be kept in the Lei Department for sealing and cannot leave the Lei Department for half a step."
In desperation, Fang Jian had no choice but to return to the human world immediately, and returned to Luer Village immediately.
In Lu'er Village, the land gods Baozheng and Mei Xianzhang have captured two ghosts that fled to Lu'er Village, and are currently locked in the Earth Temple of Lu'er Village.
When Fang Jian saw the two ghosts locked in the soul rope in front of him, he immediately realized that something was wrong.
Because the two ghosts in front of him are gradually becoming manic. They are struggling and roaring crazily, and the ghost energy on their bodies is getting heavier and heavier.
"The longer these ghosts leave the Hundred Ghost Bottle, the more manic they will become." Fang Jian came to this conclusion after careful observation with his spiritual mind.
In other words, these ghosts must not be allowed to continue wandering around in the world, otherwise they will definitely harm people.
Thinking of this, Fang Jian immediately decided to go out personally and catch all these ghosts.
At this moment, Fang Jian suddenly heard a burst of 'ding-ding-ding-ding-ding' sounds coming from the side. He turned around and saw that Mei Xianzhang was having a friendly "The Analects of Confucius" with the two locked ghosts. 》Academic exchange.
"Master Hongqing, thanks to Xiao Xianzhang's magic weapon this time, otherwise I would not be able to catch these two ghosts with my old bones." said the land god Baozheng.
Fang Jian smiled faintly, and then said to the God of Earth: "God of Earth, you continue to look after these two ghosts here. I will go and capture all the other ghosts now."
"Are there other ghosts?" Baozheng, the land god, asked in surprise.
"Yes." Fang Jian nodded, and then said to Mei Xianzhang: "Zhang'er, you and this old uncle will keep an eye on these two ghosts here. You can go back as a teacher."
Mei Xianzhang turned back to Fang Jian and said, "I know, dad." Then he turned around and punched a ghost in the face.
The mortal body cannot contact ghosts, let alone fight with ghosts, but if you have magic power, this problem does not exist.
