"Da da da……"
Accompanied by the rapid sound of horse hooves, more than fifty riders came to the scene surrounded by an adult wearing a crimson official robe.
"Haha... Master Tian, are you trying to scare the monkeys?"
The leader was none other than Guo Zizhang, the governor of Guizhou Province. His position was the third rank, which was one level higher than Tian Zongren's fourth rank magistrate.
However, Tian Zongren is one of the most powerful chieftains in Guizhou, and he also controls a clan armed force of 3,000 people, so he does not give the inspector much face.
"Hehe... I wonder what kind of wind brought the inspector to a remote and remote place like Liping?"
Tian Zongren waved his hand with a smile on his face, "Give Mr. Guo some face and stop fighting!"
Chen Changsheng hurriedly waved to several government officials from Jinping County to come over, "What are you still doing? Help the master down quickly and find a doctor to treat his injuries."
The fifth man, who had eaten more than forty sticks, touched his bloody buttocks and said, "Master, thank you so much!"
Zhu Renxia stepped forward and said, "I learned medical skills when I was a child. I'm here to help you apply medicine and bandage."
The fifth man groaned and thanked: "Thank you brother."
Guo Zizhang saluted Tian Zongren and said, "Our company received a report from Jinping County that a huge temple descended from the sky in Jiangjia Village, Yinma Town and trapped Mr. Tian. We do not dare to neglect our responsibilities, so we brought our subordinates to work hard." Come and find out!"
Tian Zongren returned the gift and said sadly: "Thank you, Guo Zhensi, for taking the trouble!"
Guo Zizhang turned around to look around and asked Chen Changsheng: "The official document said that a temple with a height of five to six feet, which is larger than the county government, was located in Jiangjia Village. Why didn't I see it?"
"Disappeared again." Chen Changsheng said with a smile.
Guo Zizhang looked surprised: "Such a big building appears as soon as it appears and disappears as soon as it disappears?"
Chen Changsheng bent down and said: "The huge temple suddenly disappeared. Hundreds of people present witnessed it with their own eyes. Even the prefect could see it clearly."
"Master Tian, is this serious?"
Guo Zizhang turned to ask Tian Zongren, who was mourning his concubine.
"Um."
Tian Zongren nodded angrily and responded with his nose.
"Is there such a strange thing in the world? Brother Tian, please express your condolences!"
Guo Zizhang looked surprised, hugged Tian Zongren and said a few words of comfort, then led his men to the circle to check.
Because Zhu Changan pressed the pot lid into the soil with force, a circle with a diameter of thirty feet and a depth of more than one foot was left on the scene.
There were piles of corpses lying scattered in the circle, emitting a stench that attracted mosquitoes and flies to fly around.
"Make records and investigate the cause of death of the body."
Guo Zizhang warned the entourage behind him, and then turned back to talk to Tian Zongren.
"I dare to ask Mr. Tian, this place is nearly three hundred miles away from Liping. Where is your master going?"
Tian Zongren looked annoyed: "Why, my son can't just walk around?"
Guo Zizhang hurriedly clasped his fists and said loudly: "Guo did not mean this, but this case is strange and bizarre. As an inspector, I must find out the ins and outs of the matter."
Tian Zongren said: "The dog wants to go sightseeing in Guilin. Yinma Town is the only way to pass through Guizhou and Guizhou. My son may happen to pass through here."
"I see."
Guo Zizhang nodded and asked no more questions.
At this moment, the yamen of Liping Prefecture returned from the town to buy a coffin. Dozens of people covered their noses and put the stinky body of Tian Gui into the coffin.
Tian Zongren ordered the official: "I am feeling sad, so I will not stay at the scene. You and your servants will stay to help Mr. Nisi deal with the scene."
"Yes, sir!"
The push officer clasped his fists and accepted the order.
"Put Zhu Renxia in shackles and escort him back to Liping to await trial." Tian Zongren ordered Zhang Baichu expressionlessly.
"Catch Zhu Renxia for me!"
Zhang Baichu immediately led five or six detectives to arrest Zhu Renxia.
At this moment, Zhu Renxia had just applied some mashed herbs on the fifth place's butt when he suddenly found Zhang Baichu rushing towards him with several wolf-like government servants, and he secretly screamed that something was wrong.
At this moment, Chang'an Tianzun's voice sounded in his mind.
[Why is this magistrate dog staring at Zhu Renxia endlessly? Do you believe that I can crush you to death with one finger? 】
Zhu Renxia was certain that this was the voice in his head, not what he heard with his ears.
"I actually heard Tianzun's voice again?"
Zhu Renxia looked up and saw Tianzun holding a huge mirror in one hand, and the other palace-like palm hanging in the air, as if ready to fall at any time.
"Tianzun cares about me so much, I will definitely repay him in the future!"
Zhu Renxia was deeply moved, "But you'd better not take action now, I have a way to deal with this dog official!"
Zhu Renxia put down the herbs in his hand, stood up and looked at Zhang Baichu who was rushing over and said, "Master Zhang, I have something to tell you."
Zhang Baichu said: "It won't be too late to talk about it when we get to Liping City."
Zhu Renxia said: "If you don't want to hear it, I will tell it to the Inspector."
Zhang Baichu had no choice but to call Zhu Renxia to a deserted place: "What do you have to say? As a clan member, you left the fiefdom without permission, and the inspectors can't protect you. Don't even think about playing tricks."
"I have been expelled and the approval is on the way."
Zhu Renxia said calmly, "If Magistrate Tian insists on taking me back to Liping for this reason, I will ask the villagers of Jiangjia Village to tell the inspector the truth about the giant temple descending from the sky."
"What truth?"
Zhang Baichu suddenly panicked.
Zhu Renxia sneered: "Don't pretend to be confused because you understand Tian Gui's character. You and the prefect know better than anyone else! The villagers said that he came to the village to do the beauty pageant to give face to the prefect, but in fact he came to rob civilian girls. .”
"If the inspector reports this matter to the court, saying that because Tian Gui is lawless and has caused divine punishment, he lands in a huge temple and traps him to death, do you think Magistrate Tian will be implicated? At least he will be punished for the crime of improper discipline, right?"
"You're talking nonsense!"
Zhang Baichu was shocked and angry, "Guo Zhensi may not listen to you, and even if he writes to the court, your majesty cannot just listen to his side of the story."
"What if King Jingjiang writes the same letter again?" Zhu Renxia pressed.
Zhang Baichu looked disdainful: "You are a little lieutenant of Fengguo, will King Jingjiang listen to you?"
Zhu Renxia snorted coldly: "Then you can let Magistrate Tian try it!"
Although Lieutenant Feng Guo was only a sixth-grade humble sect, he belonged to the Jingjiang Palace after all.
Moreover, he was of the same generation as the current King of Jingjiang, Zhu Rensheng, and Zhang Baichu did not dare to judge whether this Zhu Renxia could speak the truth?
"What do you want?"
Zhang Baichu said angrily, "If you piss off Magistrate Tian, you won't be able to leave Jiangjiacun alive!"
"Not much."
Zhu Renxia calmly said, "I want to make a deal with Magistrate Tian. He will stop pestering me about leaving the clan fiefdom. I will also restrain the villagers in Jiangjia Village to strictly keep secrets. Everyone is safe!"
"I can't make the decision. I have to ask my master for instructions."
Zhang Baichu finished his sentence and immediately went back to ask for instructions from his master.
After hearing this, Tian Zongren looked grim.
He motioned Zhang Baichu to put his ear to him and whispered: "Promise him for the time being, and find an opportunity to get rid of him later. No one from Jiangjia Village can be left behind!"
Zhang Baichu hesitated and said: "Jiangjiacun is a large village with a population of nearly three hundred. If we really want to massacre the village, will there be too much noise?"
"Your nickname Zhang Baichu is full of tricks!"
Tian Zongren twirled his beard and said with murderous intent, "I believe you have many ways to make Jiangjia Village free of chickens and dogs."
“Students understand.”
Zhang Baichu nodded and accepted the order.
After the explanation, Tian Zongren, escorted by 300 people, left Jiangjiacun with the body of his son Tian Gui, leaving the master Zhang Baichu and the official Zhang Wen to assist the prosecutors in handling the case.
