Although he has not had much contact with this person, Mr. Wu also knows that anything that makes Magistrate Wei happy is probably a good thing, so naturally he will not refuse and compete with him.
Neither of them were impatient, and the game of chess was not over until almost noon.
Mr. Wu set up a big dragon game, but he was about to be killed at this time, and he could basically be declared a loser.
Just as he was about to surrender, he saw that Magistrate Wei suddenly looked sleepy.
Just when I was about to ask, I suddenly felt sleepy coming over me...
After being in a daze for a while, I felt like everything was normal again and I didn't feel sleepy.
Standing up from where he was, he glanced around, but nothing seemed to have changed.
Just looking again, Magistrate Wei was nowhere to be seen.
When Mr. Wu saw this, he immediately went out to look for it.
As soon as I went out, I suddenly saw that the environment in front of me changed drastically. The surrounding suddenly became gloomy, and plain white houses and pavilions stood in front of me.
When I looked back, I saw that the government office had also disappeared, leaving only a dense ghostly fog behind.
Suddenly I heard a voice coming from my ear:
"Mr. Wu is fine."
Mr. Wu was startled. He looked back and found that a man in uniform of a police officer suddenly appeared next to him.
At first glance it seemed like nothing, but upon closer inspection, I discovered that the clothes this man was wearing were actually made of paper.
This made Mr. Wu feel scared and a little afraid of this person.
The man who looked like a servant said again:
"Mr. Wu, please don't panic. I am an undercover agent from the Zhanshe Mansion. You are currently in the City God's Yin Division of the Zhanshe Mansion."
"Yinsi? Why am I here?"
Mr. Wu was confused at first, but then understood immediately, and tried to ask with some uncertainty,
"Is it Mr. Wei?"
Yin almost nodded and said:
"Yes, it was Lord Cheng Huang who invited you here."
"Invite me? Did Mr. Wei invite the wrong person?"
"Sir, is he a well-known person?"
"A bit of a bad name."
"That's it. Lord Cheng Huang has something to say. The previous flood caused panic among the people around Zhan She Mansion. I invite you to come and watch the ceremony today. I also want to use your wonderful pen to slightly embellish what happened today and spread it to everyone. People’s hearts.”
After hearing what Yin Chao said, Mr. Wu suddenly realized something and immediately asked:
"But the snake monster has been captured?"
Yin Cha smiled and said: "Sir, why should you be anxious? Please come with me."
As he spoke, he led the way.
Mr. Wu immediately stepped to follow.
I found that this underworld didn't seem to be much different from the outside world except for the thick ghost fog.
Especially the Yin Chai's body exuded a scent of incense, which smelled very comfortable and did not make people feel scared.
Walking into the plain white building, if you look closely, it seems that everything is made of paper.
But after knowing that this was the City God's Yin Division, Mr. Wu didn't find it strange.
Just, a little scared...
This place is not a place where living people can stay for a long time.
Yin Chai led Mr. Wu to a side room.
One side of the side room is covered with plain white gauze. Through the gauze, a court hall can be faintly seen.
The court hall looked like the real world, with government officials standing on both sides, and sitting in the hall was Magistrate Wei.
At this time, Magistrate Wei was also wearing official uniforms made of paper, which made people feel a little bit weird.
There was a judge standing next to him. At this time, the judge was taking out a black cardboard box and taking out a round and plump black iron pill from the box.
The iron pill was delivered to Magistrate Wei, who put it in his mouth and swallowed it in one gulp.
When Mr. Wu saw this, he understood that this should be the "iron determination" that Fatty Wang had mentioned before.
It seems that Magistrate Wei wants to try the case himself, otherwise there is no need to swallow this iron pill.
The person next to him said to Mr. Wu:
"Sir, you can just watch it here. It will be held in court later."
After saying that, Yin Zha waved his hand, and a paper-folded chair appeared.
"Sir, please sit down."
When Mr. Wu saw this, he was not polite and tried to sit on the chair.
I found that the chair made of paper was very stable and showed no signs of being damaged by sitting on it. It seemed to be just like an ordinary chair.
"Sir is a living person. There is no tea for him to drink in the underworld. Please forgive me."
Yin Zai said slightly apologetically.
Mr. Wu said it didn't matter, and instead asked about some underworld matters.
Yin Cha picked up some things he could tell and told Mr. Wu.
Mr. Wu listened very engrossed, his thoughts were swirling in his heart, and he felt that some literary thoughts were flowing, and he no longer felt that he had exhausted his talent.
While my mind was wandering, I suddenly heard the sound of "mighty" coming from the lobby.
Mr. Wu immediately paid attention.
After all the underworld messengers had finished calling for peace, they saw Magistrate Wei sitting in the hall, slapped the hall in shock, and said sternly:
"Bring the evil spirit!"
There were sounds of people making promises and the sound of heavy objects being pulled outside.
Not long after, eight shady men were seen coming in from outside, pulling iron ropes, long hooks, etc.
Mr. Wu looked closely and saw that the undercover men were pulling a somewhat old boat.
This boat looked familiar. After taking a closer look, wasn't it the same boat they took yesterday?
Looking inside the boat again, there was a monster with the face of an old woman. The monster was hooked with a long hook, which penetrated the lute bone and fixed the soul of the sky, making it difficult to move.
In addition, both wings on its back and lower body were missing, making it appear very weak and defenseless.
The undercover men pulled the boat into the lobby and placed it in the center.
Magistrate Wei in the hall said again:
"Drag it down!"
Hearing this, all the undercover agents roughly pulled the snake monster off the deck and threw it on the floor of the lobby.
The snake-turned-monster tried to twist on the ground, but was held down by Yinza again.
Mr. Wu watched from the sidelines, wondering how the Yin Division tried the law.
But I heard Magistrate Wei say:
"Get the Book of Life and Death!"
The judge came out of the queue, held the book of life and death in his hand, and began to think about the snake-turned-monster.
It turns out that this snake-turned-monster was actually the big snake that was chopped into two pieces by the unimproved founding emperor in his previous life.
The big snake didn't actually want to harm anyone at the beginning, but sensed that the other person was lucky and wanted to take refuge.
Unexpectedly, there was a language barrier between the two parties, and the big snake, which had no refined crossbones, opened its mouth and was mistaken for eating a person, so it was accidentally killed by the snake.
After the death of the big snake, he refused to accept it and sued the underworld, taking the case to the King of Hell.
But at that time, its enemy had already ascended the throne of the emperor, and the king of hell could not ask the emperor to confront him.
After some discussion, it was decided to reincarnate Orochi and become a monster. Whether he could find that person's heir to take revenge depends entirely on his own ability.
After the reincarnation of the Orochi, after hundreds of years of practice, he finally achieved something.
But after leaving the quarantine, I realized that his country had long been destroyed.
Most of his descendants have also fled, and many of them have changed their names, making it difficult to find them.
Moreover, Orochi does not have very clear memories of his past life. He only remembers that he wants to seek revenge on someone, but he cannot remember who the other person is.
That's why he was active around Snake-Zhan Mansion and constantly causing trouble.
After the judge finished reading about the past and present life of the snake monster, he closed the book in his hand and looked at the snake monster.
The snake-turned-monster looked a little confused at first, but after a while, he seemed to think of many things, and suddenly started crying on the spot.
When Magistrate Wei saw him crying, he suddenly picked up the City God's Seal on the table and took a photo of it at the snake-turned-monster.
The City God's Seal glowed, and the light fell on the snake monster.
Then, I heard the snake monster cry loudly and make a voice that sounded like a man or a woman, but neither a man nor a woman:
"Sir, little one, little one doesn't know!"
At this time, the transformed snake, who had already remembered his previous life, burst into tears and felt very regretful.
"You shouldn't be obsessed with small regrets. If you hadn't been bent on revenge, it wouldn't have caused today's disaster.
Small, small..."
The transformed snake burst into tears and sobbed on the ground.
Magistrate Wei said: "In the past, Lord Yan took pity on your difficulty in practicing cultivation and your death in vain, so he allowed you to find someone to take revenge.
However, you have done many evil things in this life, destroying people's houses, hurting people's lives, and the sins you have committed are unforgivable.
No matter what happens this time, there is no way to avoid this punishment! "
As he said this, Magistrate Wei said sharply:
"You are sentenced to be divided into three parts, one for maggots, one for spiders, and one for fleas. It will take three lifetimes to recover.
After recovery, he will still be a beast in the sixth life and be slaughtered by others! "
Hearing this, the transformed snake looked frightened and begged again and again.
But this pleading was obviously useless. After Wei Zhifu gave the order, someone brought a huge guillotine with a tiger's head on it.
When Mr. Wu saw this, he immediately knew what the guillotine was.
It is said that Yan Qingtian was the reincarnation of one of the Ten Lords of Hell, and that he once had a three-mouthed guillotine called "Dragon, Tiger, and Dog" that could guillotine all evil people in the world.
After Yan Qingtian returned to the Yin Division, he also brought the three guillotines back to the Yin Division.
I didn't expect to see one of them here.
Yin Chai used the guillotine on the frightened snake-turned-snake table and struck his abdomen with one blow, causing his chest and abdomen to separate immediately.
There was no blood, only a lot of clear water flowing out.
Another blow to his neck, and his head and neck were separated immediately.
It was also clear water but no blood.
The transformed snake's head fell to the ground, and it was still begging for mercy, hoping to reduce the punishment.
However, the Wei magistrate was selfless and used the City God's Seal to erase his memory of this life. He also opened the door to the animal path and threw three parts of his body into it.
In this way, after the punishment was completed, he retreated with a shock.
The sound of the gavel sounded like thunder in Mr. Wu's ears.
He trembled violently and looked forward, only to see that everything around him was normal.
He was still in the government office, still sitting opposite Magistrate Wei, holding a chess piece in his hand.
Looking at Magistrate Wei again, he looked like he had just woken up and sat up from the chessboard.
And the chessboard, at some point, had been infected with a lot of clear water, flowing down like blood.
Seeing this, Mr. Wu couldn't help but look at Magistrate Wei with some doubts:
"Master Wei, just now..."
Magistrate Wei said calmly:
"Everything Mr. Cai saw just now is true."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Wu nodded, and then said:
"So, the snake-turned-snake should have been captured after escaping down the river yesterday."
"Yes, in fact, there was a team of shady people hidden among the boats going down the river yesterday.
Because of the living aura on your body, you can successfully avoid the snake's induction.
In addition... good karma... Brother is sure that the other party will escape with the current, and we only need to wait for him to fall into the trap. "
Although he didn't want to admit it, Ye Ming did contribute a lot in this matter, and Magistrate Wei did not choose to erase other people's achievements.
Magistrate Wei's answer matched many of Mr. Wu's own guesses, which made him feel a little satisfied.
Sure enough, I am by no means stupid.
"By the way, how do you plan to deal with the Holy Fire Fox Sect?"
“We haven’t yet found out the details of the other party in this matter, so it’s not good to act rashly.
Although he doesn't want to admit it, Brother Shanyuan is still reliable and he will handle the matter well. "
Magistrate Wei himself felt strange after saying this.
He just didn't like Ye Ming's laziness.
In his opinion, a talent like Ye Ming should fulfill his duties as a city god and work continuously for twelve hours a day.
How can I just think about being lazy every day?
What a waste of a good talent!
Mr. Wu also feels that although Ye Ming is lazy, he is still relatively reliable.
Then, Magistrate Wei said:
"I just asked you to watch the transformation of a snake into a criminal and punish people. I just wanted to ask you to beautify the matter a little, publicize it, and calm the hearts of the people."
When Mr. Wu heard this, he smiled and said there was no problem. He immediately asked for pen and paper and started writing a new story.
Magistrate Wei saw that Mr. Wu had written the title in a few strokes. He looked sideways and saw that it read:
Killing a snake and turning it into a snake for two lifetimes of evil, the Yin Division gave three levels of guillotine to pay for it.
...
