Yan Qing has gotten used to it. During the few days he came here, there were no major events in the city. There were a lot of trivial things. Either the boss's family picked the peaches that the west family's wall was built on, or the wall of your house was rebuilt and moved an extra foot. What's more serious is that business matters are unclear, and no one is willing to accept the division of property.
So today, when he was held in his lap when he came to the hall and called Master Qingtian, even if the old god was here, what else could it be a big deal?
But there is indeed something big going on today.
Yan Qing finished listening to the narrative, "You mean, your son is missing? He is suspected to have been killed by his daughter-in-law and an adulterer?"
The old man nodded vigorously, "Really! I was here during the day yesterday and didn't go home all night!"
Yan Qing asked again, "Who is the adulterer?"
The old man immediately replied, "It's Captain Mo from the City Lord's Mansion!"
Yan Qing: Huh?
It's best that he wasn't talking about Mo Lin's Mo.
The old man answered decisively, "Yes! It's Captain Mo Lin!"
Yan Qing: ...he can no longer hold this position.
It is better to believe that Mo Lin will become an adulterer than to believe that a peacock can sing!
He took a deep breath. He was Master Qingtian. He had been waiting for a big case for a long time. No matter whether the elder brother was an adulterer or not, he had to complete the case properly. Maybe the illusion would be broken.
"Then, go to the city lord's mansion and ask Captain Mo Lin to come over." Yan Qing coughed lightly. He is the person in charge of legal punishment in this city. It is said that his salary is very generous.
As expected, Mo Lin came, and Yan Qing also figured out the cause and effect of the matter during this period.
The story started when Mo Lin came back from killing demons outside the city. For some reason, Captain Mo came to ask about some things. It was the old man's daughter-in-law who received him, but he was bumped into by the old man.
Mo Lin came once in the morning and once outside the courtyard in the evening, standing under the wall. But the old man's son didn't come home all night. The old man was very worried, because everyone in the city works when the sun rises and rests when the sun goes down. It's nothing. Night life, this is totally abnormal!
"I didn't expect that guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes to do such a thing!" the old man cried.
"Which guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes?" A man wearing a red gold guard uniform of the City Lord's Mansion appeared in front of the court. He had a long sword on his waist and stepped into the hall with his long legs.
Everyone:...
See for yourself, don’t you have thick eyebrows and big eyes?
When Yan Qing met Mo Lin's face, he felt dizzy, and what made him even more dizzy was that the senior brother's acting skills had improved. He was so impressed by his junior uncle that he looked at him with eyes that were familiar to ordinary yamen colleagues. Unfamiliar eyes.
Could it be because you don't want to drag him down? Or amnesia?
Yan Qing's mind was running wildly. To be honest, he didn't like this illusion. If he really became the Qingtian Grand Master, he might as well go back to the Supreme Sect to forge iron. At least he never felt that the sect's people were unreasonable. Cumbersome and boring.
Even the simplest farm work is fun for the Supreme Sect, because the elders never mind what new magical weapons they invent, and they don't care about uneven distribution among themselves.
But he has yet to find a way to break it, and his spiritual power is also imprisoned. It can be said that except for his muscles and brain, he has no advantage.
"So, Captain Mo, what do you think? Why did you go to Uncle Chen's house on the day of the incident?"
Mo Lin said calmly, "Because their home smells like evil spirits."
As soon as the words came out, before anyone could react, Uncle Chen jumped up and shouted, "How is this possible! Don't slander others just because of your status! There have never been evil spirits in the city! We are serious people."
The people watching the excitement outside the court vaguely remembered something, "I remember it! It seems that the Chen family boy was punished by God the day before yesterday, right? Didn't the people in the Shen Pavilion say that evildoers have resentment in their hearts, so evil spirits will breed!"
Mo Lin thought thoughtfully, "Is it possible that your son was punished by God, had evil thoughts in his heart, and became a demon?"
Uncle Chen suddenly felt as if his throat was being strangled, his voice was stiff and hoarse, "How is that possible! My son can't be an evil spirit!"
Mo Lin stared at Uncle Chen, and Yan Qing stared at Mo Lin.
This senior brother, he didn't feel anything was different at first, until he said those words to Uncle Chen.
This was a strange thing for Mo Lin. Although he cultivated Shenxiao Dao and was born to eliminate evil, he would not easily define people as evil spirits.
This word is too strong for both humans and demons.
Yan Qing was wondering if the definition of evil in this world was different?
After Mo Lin finished speaking, he looked at Yan Qing with a smile, "Also, I have no motive for killing. Everyone in the city knows that I love Doctor Xia. Last night, I was treating injuries at Doctor Xia's hospital in the south of the city. Doctor Xia You can testify.”
Yan Qing's eyes widened and he forced himself to calm down, "Huh? Oh! Then please invite Dr. Xia to come."
Unexpectedly, someone shouted, "Last night, Dr. Xia treated a woman at night and received a divine blessing! But when she turned around, she fell and hit her head. She was resting."
Yan Qing nodded, "Captain Mo, did you find the evil spirit in Uncle Chen's house?"
Mo Lin looked at Uncle Chen and the woman who was tied up and being held in custody, "I couldn't go in to search, so I wanted to go over and see if there was anything abnormal after Dr. Xia finished bandaging."
"After all, evil spirits prefer to look for food at night." He added seriously because he was afraid that Yan Qing, a civil servant, would not understand.
"People from the City Lord's Mansion cannot break into private houses without official approval."
Yan Qing felt that the Doctor Xia Mo Lin mentioned was probably the second senior sister.
So he made a decision, "In this case, I will approve the official document, and we will go to Uncle Chen's house to search first. Then if there is no problem, we will go to the hospital to confirm with Dr. Xia."
This second senior sister had better be normal, otherwise he would suspect that this second senior sister and Mo Lin were fake.
He needs a normal person now to ease the shock in his heart. If it is the real Second Senior Sister, after hearing this sentence, he will probably seriously think about whether there is any new problem in Mo Lin's mind, and solve it in a friendly manner. Start researching.
Yan Qing guessed right. Xia Tianwu really wanted to take apart Mo Lin yesterday and study whether her brain was broken. At least, she would use spiritual energy to go in and check her pulse. Unfortunately, her consciousness and spiritual power were sealed.
Xia Tian woke up from her drowsiness and was thinking about the different aspects of this secret realm. For example... her senior brother had lost his memory, but his swordsmanship and ability to kill evil spirits were still there. His identity was the captain of the escort team. She didn't see anyone else. I don’t know where my uncle is now?
She was very worried about Lin Du. Being able to move the formation and run all the way would be a huge drain on his spiritual consciousness and spiritual power.
Although Junior Master Uncle Bai's pulse had not been normal since he passed away, and the master just told her to leave it alone, at the dinner table, Lin Du's pulse was so subtle that it was almost non-existent.
There were no signs of life.
That's not a good sign.
On the other side of the south side of the city, although Uncle Chen repeatedly obstructed, saying that this was not possible and that was not possible, and finally said that he would no longer sue and would withdraw the lawsuit, the more he was obstructed, the stranger it became. Yan Qing and Mo Lin still brought the government officials to Chen's house. .
They walked around and found nothing unusual.
Until Mo Lin opened the cellar with his sword.
A strong stench hit my face.
It was a monster with a strange and greedy appearance, exuding the smell of wine, and it was tied up like a dog in a wine cellar. There were also the bodies of domestic dogs that had been eaten next to it.
Uncle Chen suddenly wailed and rushed forward to cover the opening of the wine cellar.
At the same time, the long sword at Mo Lin's waist was unsheathed and his eyes were sharp, "The evil devil must be punished."
