Chapter 242: Awakening from a Dream
Taishou narrowed his eyes: "In this way, you are also joking when you judge people at night?"
The prefect was even more confused: "Night trial of prisoners? Oh, two years ago, I tried people at night. Master Zhang, why did you bring this up?"
Taishou's eyes widened again: "Who asked you about two years ago! I really don't know what happened to you? I asked about your night trial three days ago!"
The prefect was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and said: "Three days ago, don't say that three days ago, even in the past two years, I haven't had any night trials!"
Taishou showed a surprised expression on his face: "So, where are the criminals?"
The prefect was also stunned: "Who are you talking about?"
"Of course it's the envoy of that country!"
"Oh!" the prefect smiled: "Isn't he in the pavilion? Oh, it's time to escort him to Beijing!"
Taishou stood up suddenly: "Master Sun, you are making a big fuss about this! This person is a key criminal who is clearly arrested, if you lose him, how can you explain it to the above?"
The prefect was also taken aback: "What did you say? I lost someone? How could this be? Isn......'t he at the pavilion?"
Taishou sneered: "Master Sun, what kind of joke are you making?"
The prefect immediately shook his head: "What are I kidding?
Taishou looked the prefect up and down: "I don't think you're really joking, and no one will make such a joke about your own net worth! ”
The prefect touched his head: "Master Zhang, the more you say, the more confused I become! Oh, I heard from my family, I suddenly fell ill yesterday, haven't I woken up yet?"
Taishou smiled coldly: "I really heard that you were sick yesterday." I wanted to come to see you, but it was too late and there was a lot of inconvenience, so I didn't come. I thought, 'Why did you get sick all of a sudden?'
"Hey-" The prefect was stunned: "Lord Zhang, why are you leaving? ”
Taishou sneered: "You can recuperate!" said and left without looking back.
The prefect looked at Taishou's back, his brows furrowed, and he called his family to ask the reason. The family confirmed that he had indeed interrogated the prisoner at night and what he had said to Taishou.
The prefect was shocked: "I didn't expect what Taishou said to be true! But why don't I have any impression at all?" He didn't know that Hua Lin had taken his body and done these things.
"So, what about the criminals, where are the criminals?" the prefect asked urgently.
The family shook their heads: "I don't know......"
The prefect immediately felt that something was wrong, and he hurriedly ordered: "Hurry, prepare a sedan chair!"
The prefect hurriedly came to the Taishou Mansion, but the family of the Taishou Mansion said: "The master went out early in the morning and has not come back yet." ”
"Could it be that he went to the army?" The Pingzhou garrison under the command of Zhang Taishou was both inside and outside the city, and the garrisons were scattered, which the prefect knew. So if you want to find Taishou in the army, you have to happen to do it. The prefect had to give two taels of silver to the family of Taishou Mansion, borrowed two fast horses, and let his two family members go to the army to find Taishou quickly, while he waited in the guest room of Taishou Mansion.
After the two family members went, there was no news, and the prefect waited until dusk, and Taishou returned. The family reported to him: "Prefect Sun has been waiting for you here for a day!"
Taishou was startled, and immediately changed his face: "What is he waiting for me to do?" and walked in the door with a sneer.
The prefect immediately greeted him and hugged his fist to Taishou from afar: "Lord Zhang, I can look forward to you!"
Taishou sneered: "What do you want me to do?"
"Oh, I asked my family about this morning, and I have to explain it to you. ”
"No need, I can't help you, you can explain it yourself. ”
The prefect was stunned: "Where do you want me to explain?"
"I'm going to ask you!" said Tai Shou.
Under the repeated questioning of the prefect, Taishou sighed and said, "I have reported your matter, and the governor will send someone here in a few days......"
"Ahh
"Master Sun, if something like this happens, if I don't report it, I will be guilty of the same crime!"
Sure enough, within a few days, the governor's official messenger came, escorted the prefect into a prisoner car, and sent him to Jingshi. Both sides of the street are crowded with people, and people want to see with their own eyes what kind of fate has happened to the prefect who has always been beautiful and unambiguous in Pingzhou City. The cause of the incident has also spread for a while, and the streets and alleys are talking about it, and there are many theories.
At this moment there was an old man standing in the crowd, and he could not help but be surprised and delighted when he heard the people talking. Such a strange thing happened near Bapan Mountain, which made him naturally associate it with a major event that had bothered him for a long time -- the matter of Bai Qi! He was the Monkey King, the Great Sage of Monkey King and the Monkey King who defeated the Buddha! He turned into an old man and went around secretly not wanting to bump into this scene.
Wukong couldn't hide his excitement: "Listening to what people say, the prefect should have been taken away, but the person who gave it up did not harm the prefect and returned his body to him, why? Is it just to make the prefect scapegoat? So will this spirit ......?"
Wukong opened his fiery eyes and looked at the prefect in the prisoner car. It can be seen that the current prefect is indeed a normal mortal, and there is no spirit attached to his body. But when I looked closely, I found that the prefect's body had a trace of yin energy, as if it had been moved by a spirit.
Wukong immediately opened his Buddha Eye again, which was the eye that was generated after he attained the right fruit and became a Buddha. After two years of continuous cultivation, Wukong's Buddha Eye has been cultivated to the peak of the early stage of the fourth layer, and one more trace can break through to the middle stage. It's just that the higher you go, the slower your cultivation becomes, from the first layer to the second layer, Wukong only took a few days, the second layer to the third layer took three months, the third layer to the fourth layer took more than a year, and now it has been stranded in the fourth layer for more than half a year, but it has always lingered in the early stage and failed to break through to the middle stage. After the middle stage, it still gets the late stage, and then to the peak, it seems that the fourth layer will not be able to take it down without a few years. Then the fifth, sixth, and ninth floors in the back are really a bit far away!
In fact, Wukong can be regarded as improving extremely fast. This has to do with his aptitude and understanding. Ordinary cultivators don't have decades and can't reach the fourth layer. This is Wukong's cultivation in the Buddha's eye.
