Foreign relatives.
Refers to the female relatives who are related by blood.
When Tie Tang heard the news, his first reaction was to doubt the magistrate, but he quickly abandoned this idea.
Just because the county magistrate’s cultivation level is too high!
If he wanted to kill someone, he would never let anyone know about it.
"Don't panic, tell me carefully."
Just as Yuan Hua was about to speak, he saw two government servants wearing black and red robes walking outside the door, with swords hanging on their waists.
Their steps are vigorous, their breath is calm, they move like leopards or tigers, and the exposed veins on their necks are strong and intimidating.
These are two Yamen servants from Yijin Realm!
The status of the yamen servants is undoubtedly lower than that of the police officers, but the cultivation strength of these two yamen servants is simply astonishing, surpassing that of many police officers.
"Meet the Chief Catcher!"
"Meet the Chief Catcher!"
"What's the matter?" Tie Tang pressed his hand out of thin air and blocked Yuan Hua's mouth.
One of the yamen servants bowed and said: "Go back to the chief to arrest the head. The county magistrate has given an order for you to go see the yamen immediately after you finish practicing."
"I know, I'll go there later."
"The chief arrester... The deceased is the county magistrate's cousin, and I hope you will know it." The yamen servant was still bowing, his head half bowed, and his expression could not be seen.
Tie Tang raised his eyebrows slightly and waved his hand: "Lead the way!"
"Please come with me, Chief Catcher."
The two government officials led Tie Tang through the gate of the house, the second hall, and the inner house. After passing the Dingxian Tower, they walked a while and stopped in front of the Sanshengtang.
"Captain Chief, please come inside!"
Tie Tang nodded, stepped forward and knocked on the door three times.
"Come in!"
A majestic voice came from inside.
Crunch!
Tie Tang pushed the door open and walked in. On the left and right sides were tall bookshelves filled with densely packed books and files.
Directly in front of him was a figure crouching at his desk writing a book.
He was dressed in plain robes and did not show off his imposing manner. He was about thirty years old, but his temples were a little bit hoarfrost.
"Master Magistrate, Tie Tang has been ordered to come."
"You're here, wait a moment."
Turning around and closing the door, Tie Tang found a seat in front of him and sat down, closing his eyes and thinking.
Which foreign relative from the county magistrate died?
After searching through the memory of his predecessor, there weren't many clues.
Except for the magistrate's wife and a few maids, my predecessor didn't know many people around the magistrate.
After one stick of incense, the magistrate stopped writing.
The void shook slightly, and a strong aroma of pen and ink lingered in the hall.
"Didn't you dislike martial arts before? Why have you changed your temper now?"
"Yi Jin Dacheng..."
"Breaking through two realms in one day, your cultivation speed in the physical realm is even faster than mine."
Three words shook Tie Tang from his seat.
Can he see through my cultivation?
When did you see it?
Did you know it only after you saw me...or is it that the entire county government is under the eyes of the magistrate?
Yes.
The magistrate has long entered the secret realm of witchcraft, and his cultivation is profound and unpredictable. Although he does not know exactly what realm he has reached, it will definitely not be just the realm given by heaven.
So how do I explain this?
The magistrate of Yuncheng County disrupted Tie Tang's thoughts with just a few words.
He originally thought that the magistrate was looking for him because of the unsolved case at the racecourse, but he didn't expect that he was talking about his own cultivation.
After clearing his thoughts, Tie Tang said slowly: "Tie was given three or four volumes of the Five Phases of Mang Niu as a gift from Wang Ling Shi. I just suddenly had an understanding and luckily learned the Great Success of Yi Jin."
The magistrate's cultivation level far surpassed that of Tie Tang, and he could be said to be the number one person in Yuncheng. There was no point in concealing his martial arts progress in front of such a person.
"Now that you have mastered Yi Jin, do you know what Jin is? What is Yi Jin?"
Um?
Tie Tang subconsciously raised his head and saw the magistrate's handsome face, with a pair of deep eyes staring firmly at him.
It radiates kindness.
"The so-called tendons should refer to the tendons throughout the body..." Tie Tang expressed his understanding of the four major branches of meridians.
Finally, he added: "Yi Jin uses the qi and blood of the whole body to cultivate the muscles. I wonder if Tie Tang is right? Please correct me."
The magistrate smiled lightly and shook his head.
"What you said is just an appearance. If you practice according to this understanding, although it is not wrong, you will never become a true master.
There are so many such situations in the world.
What are tendons?
Outside the marrow and bones, inside the skin and flesh, everywhere in the limbs and bones, there are no muscles. Those that are useless are not muscles, and those without strength are not muscles. They penetrate the whole body and circulate qi and blood. These are muscles.
Why is it easy?
Transforming weakness into strength, transformation into strength from contraction, transformation from softness into strength, transformation from decay into health, the strength of the body, the foundation of the holy, this is the power of change. "
"Thank you, Lord Magistrate, for your advice." Tie Tang didn't care whether he understood or not, he just wrote it down first.
But then...the magistrate's words once again made his heart lift into his throat.
“One thing I’m very strange about is...why can you cultivate real Yi Jin even though you don’t understand what it is?
Are you a hidden genius? "
Tie Tang was a little panicked. He didn't quite understand what the magistrate said.
However, his cultivation comes from the panel, and the foundation must be solid.
But how could he know the specific principles behind it and how it was done?
"I practiced it haphazardly and made the adults laugh."
"If you practice randomly, you won't be able to develop the jade-like eagle claw power."
This sentence made Tie Tang couldn't help but want to shrink his hands, but he finally held it back, secretly thinking that something was wrong.
How can the magistrate's eyesight be so good?
I can't hide under his nose. It seems that I need to pay more attention in the future.
The strength gap is still too big.
After this battle, Tie Tang became more determined to become stronger quickly, otherwise this feeling of not having any secrets would be too uncomfortable.
Even if the other person means well, he doesn't like the feeling of being penetrated.
Seemingly sensing Tie Tang's embarrassment, the magistrate looked away, stood up and walked slowly in the lobby.
"What do you think about the unsolved case in the racecourse? I heard that you arrested Qingfeng as a suspect. Do you think he is the real murderer?"
Tie Tang breathed a long sigh of relief and responded: "Qing County arrest is indeed suspicious. He was outside when the crime happened, but he lied that he was at home.
besides.
The subordinates had previously learned from Wang Lingshi that the murder weapon was probably 90% similar to the Qiushui Yanling Sword based on the traces of beheading on the deceased.
But earlier when his subordinates interrogated the Qingxian arrester...he claimed that the knife was at home and did not want anyone to take it for inspection. "
"It seems... Qingfeng is indeed suspected. I am not as good at solving cases as you, so go ahead and do your work. The impact of this matter is not small. Many people and squires know about it, which makes people panic. It is better to capture the real culprit as soon as possible. To clarify the code of law.”
"I will do my best to do this! Before that, may I ask, sir... what is the relationship between the deceased and you?"
The magistrate turned to look at Tie Tang, who did not shy away and looked at him.
A few moments.
"Without the head, I dare not make a conclusion based only on the body and the Yang family's tokens.
Now that I can't contact them for a while, you should start from other places. If you have no clue, come to me again. "
.............
After coming out of Sanshengtang, Tie Tang's underwear was soaked behind his back.
What he thought was a 'little county magistrate' was terrifyingly powerful in this world.
This kind of power...
Not only the official position, but more importantly the other party's ability to crush him.
"Seventh-grade officials are already so terrifying. Are those first-grade officials in the court really still human beings?"
At this time, Tie Tang truly understood why he could not become a high official in the physical state.
If a person reaches the upper third level of the physical realm, he may accidentally be trampled to death when he goes to a court meeting.
The other party may even do it unintentionally!
If any official has evil intentions, he can kill that person in the physical realm with just a breath.
That would be a joke!
Things that are not stipulated in the legal provisions are unwritten and hidden rules.
"Getting stronger, getting stronger, it's not enough now, nor is it enough to become a master of Yijin. You need to enter the realm of witchcraft, otherwise you are just a little chicken, at the mercy of others!"
Tie Tang's heart became anxious, but now he had to solve the unsolved case in the racecourse before he could calm down and practice.
The second hall of the county government.
The county magistrate is not here today, so the place is empty with not many people coming and going.
Tie Tang sat down in his seat. In front of him stood a group of police officers and guards, including Yuan Hua.
"Tell me, do you have any clues? The ones from the search hall will come first."
A detective in blue, about forty years old, emerged from the crowd, first presented a file, and then spoke in a low voice.
"The chief arrester. Judging from the slash marks on the body's neck, the murder weapon is long and narrow, with a reverse blade and a blood groove. The style is similar to our sabers."
"Wang Lingshi also inferred the same thing. So...the murderer was indeed beheading someone with the Qiushui Yanling Sword?"
"Probably!"
Tie Tang stood up and walked towards the wall behind him, where his saber was hanging.
Canglang!
The long sword was unsheathed, and the cold light shone.
Qiushui Yanling knife has a blade of four feet and three inches and weighs nine pounds and thirteen taels.
The blade is long and straight, without a tangent, with a special blood groove, a special reverse blade, and the end is decorated with an oval iron ring.
When worn, it is hung at the waist by the pigtail or double hanging lugs on the scabbard. It is a specially made knife for police officers by the Dashang Inspection Department. It is impossible for ordinary people to have a properly controlled knife.
Even if you find it, you must turn it in quickly, otherwise it will be a crime if it is found.
The long knife in Tie Tang's hand is almost the same as that of other policemen and slaves. They are all the lowest-grade Qiu Shuiyan feather knives, without even the mark runes.
But this is not the case in some big cities, where the Qiushui Yanling knives assigned by the police are of different grades.
Even the lowest grade is mixed with deep sea cold iron, which is extremely sharp. Even more powerful ones can be engraved with corresponding talismans, and even witchcraft and magical powers.
The most important thing is that each knife has a rune mark, corresponding to each knife-wielding agent. Once the sword is lost or damaged, it must be reported immediately.
Clang!
Tie Tang returned the sword to its sheath and sat down again.
"How sure are you?"
"In the opinion of my subordinates, unless the murderer is someone from the weapons workshop, the murder weapon must be the Qiu Shui Yan Fei Dao."
The speaker was the head of the Search Hall. With his sharp eyesight, he could naturally identify the murder weapon, not to mention it was such a familiar weapon.
"Okay, you pass the order and let all the hall masters inspect the sabers of their subordinates, including the Tsing Yi captain.
Bring all those who do not have swords here.
Besides the murder weapon, are there any other clues on the body? "
The face of the hall master of the Search Hall changed slightly and he whispered: "The murderer handled it extremely cleanly, and no fingerprints or marks were found."
"Is there any result from the footprint collection?"
"We have carefully surveyed the area around the three stables and found nothing. We are still surveying the horse farm."
Seeing that Sou Jantang couldn't ask anything, Tie Tang waved his hand and motioned for him to leave.
"How about the execution hall?"
At this time, a fair-faced policeman stood up.
"Back to the Chief Inspector, we have some clues, but they are still under interrogation."
"Oh? Please elaborate."
"Someone saw Qing County arrest last night!"
