Although there were many spirits in the lobby of Xie Ma Zhan at this time, they all had their own agendas and were scattered. Qi Jingzhi had no fear in his heart. If he didn't want to implicate innocent people, he would have gone on a killing spree.
When Dao Chenghuang asked this question, he immediately nodded without hesitation and said: "It is not only natural to kill people to pay for their lives, and to pay debts for money, it is also clearly stated in the law."
"Is the law clearly written?"
However, Daocheng Huang immediately responded with a sneer: "How ridiculous your words are! Killing someone to pay for their life is just a folk proverb. Since you said that the law has clear words, then we know that there are 'six killings' for killing people in the "Da Qi Code" Points? Among the six killings, the circumstances vary, the guilt varies, and the murderer must pay with his life without even seeing it!"
"Just now I heard Shopkeeper Cheng say that you are Lu Qiyun, the Skinned Demon Lord from Linshan? I think Lu Demon Lord has never read "Da Qi Lv". It is better not to talk nonsense in the future, so as not to show timidity in front of others and make others laugh. Fang family!”
After hearing this, Qi Jingzhi burst into laughter, shook his head slightly and said, "Don't try to trick me, City God! There are many articles in the "Da Qi Code", and I have never read them all, but when it comes to murder, I really know it!"
"The six murders are murder, intentional killing, fighting killing, manslaughter, manslaughter and playful killing. Among them, murder and intentional killing are both homicide crimes, either by hanging or beheading; manslaughter and fighting killing are reduced to first-class punishment for homicide. , either killed or exiled; the second-class punishment for killing in a show is reduced to the crime of fighting and killing, and is just a stick; manslaughter is the lightest, and the offender can atone for his crime with copper."
"The evil spirits causing trouble and killing people should undoubtedly be judged as murder or intentional killing, and they should be paid with their lives! This is what I said about the law being clear. I really don't know what is wrong. Please clarify my doubts!"
Daochenghuang, as the leader of a group of Daojing road monsters, was used to running rampant in this rural area. How could he have thought that an ignorant mountain spirit in his eyes had actually read "Da Qi Lu". Not only did he fail to frighten Qi Jingzhi, but he himself I was choked and speechless.
Its face became more and more gloomy, and it took a long time to say: "Since the Deer Demon King is familiar with the criminal law, he should know the reason why people should not be lynched to kill people. Even if there are demons who kill innocent people indiscriminately and deserve death for their crimes, they should be bound to the competent authorities and dealt with according to the law. This place It is under my jurisdiction and I have my own opinions on how to act. I also ask Mr. Deer Demon not to mess up the law or act wantonly!"
"Being kidnapped to have a secretary?"
This was the first time Qi Jingzhi saw such a spirit who understood the legal principles and knew how to rely on the laws and rules, and he felt strange for a moment.
He stretched out his hand and wiped it on his waist, and a golden token appeared in his palm: "May I ask the city god, does the king of the country, Dangmo Qinjun, Daqi Gouchenyuan, count as the Yousi in your mouth? I, the Gouchenyuan's camp Are you qualified to slay demons according to the law?"
Without waiting for Daochenghuang's reply, Qi Jingzhi asked a series of questions: "Daochenghuang keeps calling himself an official, but he doesn't know whether he has received the imperial title from the king or the appointment from the Ministry of Civil Affairs? What is the official rank and where is the official office? Who is the superior official and what is his jurisdiction? What is the geometry of the land?”
After seeing the token in Qi Jingzhi's palm, Dao Chenghuang's expression changed suddenly. It seemed that he clearly knew where Gouchen Courtyard was. He opened his mouth but did not say anything.
Most of the other spirits had blank expressions on their faces, and even the spoke boys turned around in shock, wondering why their benefactor was clearly the Skinned Demon King of Linshan, so how could he suddenly become the Lieutenant of Gouchen Yuan?
After a short silence, he suddenly raised his eyes and laughed sharply: "My old lady has never been illiterate, but she can't recognize any tokens! If you say that you are from the Demon Suppressing Academy, I will be afraid if you can't tell me." You can slaughter your neck! But what kind of bullshit is this Gouchen Yuan? I’ve never heard of it!"
"It's not too late to hear about it now."
Qi Jingzhi smiled faintly at Zhu Yan Po, and the Ling Guan's mask revealed a ferocious look: "There may be many illiterate people here who don't recognize my token, and they have never heard of the name Gouchen Yuan before. It doesn’t matter.”
"Since murder is a common proverb among the people, it must be widely circulated, and you must have heard of it. If anyone dies on the spot for committing this crime tonight, it must not be regarded as the execution of the captain for not teaching him!"
As his words fell, the atmosphere in the Xiemazhan lobby became increasingly tense, and there was a faint murderous intent.
Cheng Deqi, who was behind the counter, said quickly: "Every distinguished guest, if you have anything to say, please do not offend the atmosphere! The alcohol in Cheng's body is like your essence and blood. If it exists, it will live, if it loses, it will die. It really can't be taken out to entertain guests, but then There are still a few jars of centuries-old treasures in the wine cellar of the small shop, so I will bring them here for the distinguished guests to enjoy and drink."
"It's just that the century-old wine is strong and heavy. If my rotten body like mine can't be moved, I'd like to ask fellow Taoist Fengzi Ghost to follow me and help."
After saying that, the shopkeeper Cheng waved to Feng Zigui, who was a little confused, and made a gesture to climb down from the wooden stool.
It wanted to take Feng Zigui along with it, so it naturally had good intentions, but it was too straightforward and explicit, so how could it succeed?
Zhuyanpo turned around suddenly, with a fierce look in her eyes: "Just wait! Anyone who dares to escape will die immediately!"
Cheng Deqi's fat and short body froze in place, no longer daring to speak or act recklessly.
Seeing the various behaviors and obsessions in the hall, Qi Jingzhi couldn't help but shook his head slightly, hung the token back to his waist silently, and grabbed the tiger-shape jade chime from the table.
"clang!"
A crisp and sweet knocking sound followed immediately, and yellow-black smoke clouds spurted out from the tiger evil jade chime, spread out under the guidance of the chime hammer, and adhered to the roof, floor, and four walls.
In an instant, the floors, floors, doors and windows in the lobby of Xie Ma Zhan were all sealed by tiger smoke. Two ghost corpses of tigers and more than a dozen flesh-winged flying tigers appeared and disappeared, glaring at them with eager eyes.
Not to mention the power of the tiger evil jade chime, its appearance alone was enough to bluff people. The whole hall was frightened by its power, and no one acted rashly, for fear that they would become the unlucky guy who would be used to establish their power.
After being caught by Qi Jingzhi, Gao Tianzhang lost a lot of scruples and immediately sneered: "May I ask Lieutenant Lu Ying, if my colleagues and I have ever had the blood of innocent humans on our hands, how should we judge? If Lu is allowed to do so, The battalion captain makes decisions based on his heart and words, doesn't it mean that whoever you don't like will risk his life?"
These words were obviously inciting, but Qi Jingzhi was well prepared and immediately laughed loudly: "Have you ever heard of a mirror hanging high?"
At the same time, a bright moon flew out from behind his head, hanging in the sky, blooming with clear light.
I heard the captain of the Gouchen Courtyard cough lightly and said leisurely: "This is the treasured mirror of our Gouchen Courtyard that reflects evil spirits and identifies sins. Please pass under this mirror one by one. If there are evil spirits who have done evil and killed people, , as long as it is illuminated by the mirror, there will be nothing to hide from, and then it will be eaten alive by the precious mirror, and die a miserable death! As for those who have no sinful karma, they can be safe and sound!"
As soon as these words came out, the crowd in the lobby suddenly became excited.
These spirits did not recognize the accompanying weapon spirits, nor did they believe that there could be such a divine object in the world. However, they were all shocked and confused after hearing Qi Jing's words.
Even Lishan Guangye couldn't help turning his head to look at Qi Jingzhi. His round eyes were full of surprise and inquiry, and his expression seemed to be asking: "Is it true or false?"
Through the spirit official mask, Qi Jingzhi blinked at the chubby young man and gave an enigmatic look in return: "Guess!"
Seeing this, Lishan Guangye couldn't help but curled his lips, feeling that he had seen through the intentions of this cheap brother.
Regardless of whether the precious mirror hanging in mid-air has the miraculous ability to detect crimes, those who are evil-minded and treacherous will not dare to rashly test themselves, and most of them will show their flaws in fear, which is just right. They were all captured by Gouchen Yuan's battalion.
“Isn’t this just setting up a net, waiting for it, and fishing with a hook?”
Lishan Guangye's eyes flashed and he cursed endlessly, almost writing the words "people's hearts are evil" on his face.
Qi Jingzhi looked around the hall, taking in all the changes in the expressions of all the weird people, and silently made a rough screening in his mind.
Immediately, he stared at Gao Tianzhang and said solemnly: "This mirror is the most impartial and effective. If you have never done any evil, even if there is an air of injustice entangled in you, as long as it passes the inspection of the mirror, I will only regard it as innocent." . On the other hand, if there is anyone who refuses to come forward, it is because he has something evil in his heart and is willing to plead guilty and obey the law!"
At this point, anyone who sees the Husha Jade Chime and the Mysterious Mirror of Heaven and Earth, and sees the shrinking attitude of Dao Chenghuang who dare not reply, will know that this Luying Lieutenant is not easy to deal with.
The spirits looked at Gao Tianzhang one after another, wondering how it would respond. Even Zhu Yanpo, who had been shouting the loudest before, stared at a pair of strange eyes, and his eyes wandered between Gao Tianzhang and Tiandi Xuanjian.
The four faces of Gao Tianzhang were obviously not turning as fast as before. It originally had the intention of inciting the spirits in the hall, but Qi Jingzhi easily defused it with a few words, and was even vaguely pushed to the forefront by the spirits.
I saw it pondering for a moment, then suddenly turned its body and moved a few steps laterally. Its long arms quickly picked up the wet fur-collared coat that was dripping down.
Among the four clothes of the deceased, this fur-collared coat looked the tallest and heaviest. He was caught off guard and immediately struggled wildly. The strength was so great that Gao Tianzhang almost let go, and black and smelly sewage splashed everywhere.
Gao Tianzhang added another arm without hesitation, barely suppressing the resistance of the fur-collared coat. At the same time, he stepped forward and threw his arm, without any explanation, throwing it towards the bright moon in the hall.
Under the gaze of everyone, the brilliance of the Mysterious Mirror of Heaven and Earth suddenly surged. With a slight sway in the air, the fur-collared coat was easily swallowed up without any reluctance.
It was only then that the other three deceased men stood up in panic, but they did not stop them. Instead, they huddled in a pile and stayed away from Gao Tianzhang, for fear of following in the footsteps of the unlucky man in the fur-collared coat.
After waiting for a moment, the Mysterious Mirror of Heaven and Earth remained motionless.
Seeing that it was impossible for the fur-collared coat to escape, Gao Tianzhang sighed as if nothing had happened: "As far as I know, water-coated ghosts like to stay underwater the most, and they will attack once a single person approaches. It will show its body, and when the person goes into the water to fish it out, they will take the opportunity to bundle it into a ball, drag it to the bottom of the water, and drown it, just to swallow the last breath of life before death."
The Golden Ping Boy also shook his head: "I have been drifting in various mountain streams before, and I have encountered it several times, but I didn't know that it is so cruel, so perverse and murders innocent people. It deserves this retribution!"
It pointed at itself: "To be honest, Lieutenant Lu Ying said, I have been taught by my mother since I was a child, and I never kill easily. There was only a group of bandits in Baqiu Mountain who committed murder, arson, and all kinds of evil, causing harm to my neighbors." It’s unspeakable suffering. Once I have perfected my skills, I will kill all those bandits. This shouldn’t be regarded as killing innocent people, right?”
Although Jin Ping Boy's expression and tone did not seem to be fake, Qi Jingzhi would not simply believe its one-sided words.
Previously, Fu Da had said that the reputation of Gao Tianzhang and Jin Ping Hai'er was not bad. Who knew that Gao Tian Zhang only had hidden methods and was not as violent as Shu Yan Po. However, he did not hesitate to make more concessions when he committed evil. How could he know that Jin Ping Hai'er was not in this way?
Thinking of this, Qi Jingzhi said calmly: "If what you said is true, this move is naturally not an act of killing innocent people, but an act of chivalry. Since you have a clear conscience, you might as well go to the treasure mirror and take a look to see if it is good or evil. You will know for yourself."
Jin Ping Boy heard this and shook his head again: "It is not yet known whether Lu Yingwei's precious mirror can illuminate demons and identify evil, but its power is undoubted."
"Although I ask myself that I have never killed innocent people, I do not dare to take risks. Otherwise, if I am swallowed by it, I will die in vain, and I will get a bad name for no reason, and even harm my mother. Who can I ask to explain this? ? If I apply myself to others, I think all the colleagues in the hall must have the same thoughts as me."
Seeing that the Jin Ping kid was even more difficult to deal with than Gao Tianzhang, Qi Jingzhi laughed and asked, "How are you doing?"
Jin Ping Boy lowered his head slightly, stared at Qi Jingzhi with his eyes above his head, and said word by word: "As the saying goes, a thief takes the stolen goods. Tonight, my colleagues and I are just here to attend the banquet. If Lieutenant Lu Ying insists on making things difficult, we must save our lives. , we can only fight together to the death!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Yanpo and Gao Tianzhang took a step forward together, and they seemed to share the same hatred. Even the two pairs of black and white road gods and the four kobolds carrying the chariot under Daocheng Huang could not help but feel restless.
Among them, Gao Tianzhang reached out and grabbed it, and pulled out a four-edged arrow from the void. It was more than two feet long, white as frost and snow, and shining with cold light.
The next moment, it pointed its arrow at Qi Jingzhi, and the four holes in its mouth whistled one after another. The sound was layered, echoing back and forth in the hall of Xie Ma Zhan, with some strange power that moved people's hearts.
"Lu Qiyun, I call you, do you dare to agree?"
As the demonic sound entered his ears, Qi Jingzhi suddenly felt in a trance, and suddenly regained his clarity. When he raised his eyes, he saw the shadowy figures of four children flying towards him.
These phantoms of young children all have ferocious faces, varying in age and stature. They all have black words carved on their foreheads, which read "three", "six", "nine" and "twelve" respectively.
In an instant, the three golden eyes of Lingguan's visor suddenly glowed with brilliance, and brilliant red flames condensed, illuminating a bright candle.
Qi Jingzhi's whole body was full of vitality, and his pure spirit dispersed in all directions, crashing into the hearts of the spirits in the hall.
The spirits only saw a blur in front of their eyes, and vaguely imagined a majestic young man in their hearts. He was wearing robes, crane shoes, a collar around his neck, wings on his back, and a tiger crouching at his feet. He looked majestic and majestic, as if he were an immortal.
At the same time, in the void inside the spirit officer's mask, the phantoms of four young children screamed in unison, either igniting red red fire, or being illuminated by the cold sword light, or entering the Qingqiu's mouth, or Eaten by a young tiger, it vanished in an instant.
Naturally, no one could see this scene. Only then did a group of monsters break free from Qi Jingzhi's thoughts and thoughts. They saw the demonic voice in Gao Tianzhang's mouth suddenly stopped, the four faces no longer rotated, and the arrows in his hands suddenly lost their luster. , and a shocking scorch mark appeared out of thin air.
Immediately afterwards, under the hood of the Xuanjian of Heaven and Earth, the evil spirit, who was more than ten feet long, was completely swallowed up.
For a moment, the lobby of Xie Ma Zhan was so silent that you could hear a needle drop.
The flame in Qi Jingzhi's eyes gradually dimmed, returning to the clarity of autumn water.
He suddenly opened his wide mouth and spit out a cloud of foul-smelling black smoke.
"Spring is not prosperous in the Youxu period, and it dies in mid-summer in the Maozi period. Autumn is also taboo in the Yinwu period, and Haishen is already a disaster in winter."
The young Lieutenant Gouchen Yuan looked at the black smoke, raised his hand and waved it away carelessly, and then softly praised: "His name confuses people's hearts, and they break people's essence. What a vicious and ruthless general." arrow!"
