Eighteen bows.
In exchange for one thousand taels of silver.
Xu Taiping smiled like a flower and couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear all the way back to the express team.
He looks very much like a corrupt official who has just returned from the autumn wind.
There was no fluctuation in my heart.
Because money has never been his goal.
He had only one purpose - to anger Yang Jintang.
Anger can make people lose their minds.
Yang Jintang was angered.
Only then did he have the opportunity to lead Yang Jintang outside the city.
Only then can he have the opportunity to kill Yang Jintang, obtain rewards for solving the case, and eliminate the threat posed by Yang Jintang.
Now.
It depends on whether Yang Jintang takes the bait.
Return to the police squad with one thousand taels of silver.
Just walked in the door.
A yamen servant called him: "Xu Captou, sir, please come over."
Xu Taiping cursed secretly.
Grass!
The dog officer has a really sharp nose.
I have to feed the dogs with the money I just got.
One thousand taels.
I am not short of money.
But you can’t really drag me to death.
It has only been a few days since I took office, but the dog officer has already taken thousands of taels from me.
Greedy dog official!
Scolds are scolded.
Xu Taiping moved very quickly, picked up the box containing the silver and turned to the county government office.
Go to the county government office.
He directly placed the box in front of Zhou Yucheng: "Sir, in order to thank his subordinate for returning the eighteen hard bows, Yang Jintang specially presented a thousand taels of grained silver. Please check it."
Zhou Yucheng pretended to be surprised: "Seriously?"
"Absolutely true."
"Did Yang County Lieutenant voluntarily give this gift?"
"Willingly."
"That's good," Zhou Yucheng nodded slightly, "I'll keep this money here for now, and I'll hand it over to Master Xu's family after I count it, so we can express our feelings."
"Your Excellency is generous and kind, and your subordinates admire you greatly."
"Get up," Zhou Yucheng said with one hand, "The murderer's body has been handed over to his family, the murder weapon has been returned to its original owner, and the mastermind has been sentenced and will be executed soon. This case is over for the time being. You must not cause any complications, otherwise, who will I can’t protect you, understand?”
"I obey my orders. Once the execution is over, I will focus on solving the murder case of the fox demon."
"Has the execution ground been arranged?"
"The arrangements have been made, just waiting for execution."
Zhou Yucheng warned: "The death penalty is not a trivial matter. Any death penalty must be reported to the Ministry of Punishment, and it can only be executed after the Ministry of Punishment approves it. I only have the power to impose a death sentence every year, so there is absolutely no room for error in this execution. Do you understand? "
Xu Taiping really didn't know these details before.
But once I heard Zhou Yucheng's words, I understood.
Especially the last sentence.
There is no room for error.
This case does not stand up to scrutiny.
But as long as the execution is carried out, there will be no evidence, and the Ministry of Punishment will investigate afterwards and find out nothing.
so.
There is no room for error in the execution process.
If something unexpected happens, for example, the condemned prisoner says something he shouldn't say, or is even rescued, there will be flaws in the case.
If the Ministry of Punishment really wants to pursue him, Zhou Yucheng will definitely lose his official position or even go to jail.
in other words.
Bai Haiping, the "mastermind" of this case, must die, and he must die under the executioner's knife. The process must be perfect to bring a perfect end to this case.
The Ministry of Punishment cannot get caught.
Think of this.
Xu Taiping nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, sir, my subordinates will personally lead the team to enforce martial law, and set up light and dark sentries around the execution ground, striving to eliminate all hidden dangers."
"Go ahead."
"Yes, sir."
Xu Taiping returned to the police squad.
Call in the police.
Go straight to Beicheng Street.
North Street is located north of the county government office.
The distance is only five or six hundred steps.
Xu Taiping set up a cordon, explored every corner of the scene, personally inspected the surrounding buildings, and set up open and hidden sentries.
Stay until a quarter past noon.
County magistrate Zhou Yucheng, county magistrate Wang Min, and county lieutenant Yang Jintang arrived hand in hand.
Behind him were government officials and prison guards escorting death row prisoner Bai Haiping.
Zhou Yucheng opened the file, read out Bai Haiping's crimes and charges, and pronounced the sentence again.
The whole audience was in awe.
Zhou Yucheng threw a fire sign.
The executioner raised his knife and dropped it.
Blood splattered.
Heads fell to the ground.
The whole place was in an uproar in fear, and the onlookers retreated one after another.
The detectives also had earthy faces.
Yang Jintang's face was livid, and he stared at Xu Taiping with deep hatred in his eyes, wishing he could cut Xu Taiping into pieces with his eyes.
Only the executioner, Xu Taiping, County Magistrate Zhou Yucheng and County Magistrate Wang Min showed no expressions.
The execution is over.
Family members came to collect the body.
The three magistrates stood up and left.
The people also dispersed.
Xu Taiping led the policemen to dismantle the execution platform and clean the execution ground.
heart.
But somewhat surprised.
Because, at the moment when Bai Haiping was executed, a small part of the fate that was still hanging in the sea of consciousness was integrated into the bamboo book.
That is to say.
This Bai Haiping was really one of the murderers, and he was not wronged.
There is this part of luck.
Two-thirds of the eleventh bamboo slip in the bamboo book is exposed, and the skill names on the bamboo slip are clearly legible.
War of words.
The eleventh skill is verbal confrontation.
This magical power is very common.
Basically, every Confucian and Taoist monk must practice this magical power, and it is even the first magical power that many Confucian and Taoist monks practice.
But this does not mean that this magical power is weak.
On the contrary, it is still very strong.
Condensing the gun and sword with literary energy and spitting it out from the mouth, it is not only highly lethal, but also concealed enough, without delaying the movements of the hands, and is extremely practical.
And as the strength increases, the lethality of this magical power will become stronger and stronger.
If you can master higher-end magical powers such as "silent casting", this "talking sword" will be more concealed. When you open your mouth, you can use several guns and swords, and the sneak attack effect is first-rate.
The best part is.
Xu Taiping does not need to "recite" like Zhou Yucheng and others to use his skills. He can use them by activating them, which can maximize the power of this skill.
Just as he said this, the next sentence came out full of guns and swords.
That picture is exciting just thinking about it.
For the eleventh skill.
Solve the case!
Solve the case!
Xu Taiping, who was eager to solve the case, after cleaning up the execution ground, once again led the team to search for relevant clues and evidence, and was very busy.
However, no clear clues have been found.
It seems like busy work in vain.
Zhou Yucheng saw this and secretly shook his head.
Recruit Xu Taiping to the county government.
When Xu Taiping sat down, he asked calmly: "Captain Xu, Master Xu asked you to drink wine before, but did he show you a map?"
Xu Taiping raised his head suddenly: "Master Xu took out the map twice, but was interrupted both times. Could it be..."
Zhou Yucheng directly took out the map, put it on the table, and tapped it with his index finger: "No doubt, it was my order. My original intention was to use Master Xu to tell you where the fox demon was hiding and help you solve the case. did not expect……"
Xu Taiping stood up hurriedly, bowed respectfully and saluted: "Thank you for your love, sir. Your friendship is profound, and I can only repay you with death!"
Zhou Yucheng nodded: "Master Xu is no longer here, so I will tell you this clue directly."
At this time.
A government official said softly at the door: "Sir, there is a middle-aged scribe outside the door who wants to see you. He calls himself Cheng."
When Zhou Yucheng heard this, he stood up suddenly and said in surprise: "Please come quickly."
He said and put away the map.
He waved his hand towards Xu Taiping: "Captain Xu, I'll entertain the guests first, and we'll talk about this tomorrow."
Xu Taiping was stunned.
what's the situation?
Is this clue so difficult to obtain?
Interrupted three times in a row.
The first time was interrupted by Yu Piaopiao and Zhongli Xianer in Qunfang Tower.
The second time was interrupted by Yang Jintang's archers on the street.
This is already the third time.
Just a little bit each time.
I've already taken out the map.
But...
Xu Taiping respectfully resigned.
Return to the police squad and continue the investigation.
But he was thinking about his own plan in his mind.
It would be great to have that map.
The investigation can continue without that map.
The clues I got from the teacher at the county school were enough.
Let's do it tonight.
The sooner the case is solved.
The sooner you get the skill of "Dialogue".
The more skills you have.
The stronger the ability to resist risks.
Everyone in Jianyang City is not good at all, they are not strong enough, and they don’t even know how to die.
At night.
Xu Taiping directly changed his appearance at home.
Sneak out quietly.
Go straight to the fairyland.
