Chapter Ninety-Four: Doubt
Li Jincheng's body trembled when he heard this, the life of a village, just to be recognized by the treasure? What selfishness and viciousness this is. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Asatsuki glanced at him, then continued to ask, "Are there any other clues?" ”
"No, all the catchers brought back was this piece of paper."
This piece of paper can basically identify the people who slaughtered the village, but at most they only know two names.
There are many demon cultivators in the world, and most of them are not real names, finding these two people is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack. It's okay if the two of them are more famous, but if it's just a little demon minion......
That's why Asatsuki has this question.
"It's best for Lord Li to be true, and the same is true for this paper, if Lord Li is caught lying by me, believe me, you won't be able to bear my anger." Asatsuki doesn't kill indiscriminately, but the warning still has to be warned.
"That's it! Is that! Xia Guan didn't dare to hide anything from the immortals. Li Jincheng quietly wiped the sweat from his forehead, although the light moon has always been very gentle, the pressure brought to him by the belt has been pressing on him like a mountain.
"That's the best."
Qianyue was a little disappointed, but she could be regarded as getting what she wanted, and she was not embarrassed by Li Jincheng, and planned to leave, but she saw that Li Jincheng looked like she wanted to say something.
"Is there anything else going on, Lord Li?"
"This-" Li Jincheng hesitated for a moment before he said, "The lower official also heard the head catcher mention a matter, I don't know whether to talk about it or not?" ”
Asatsuki was a little surprised, and then nodded, "Lord Li, but it's okay to talk about it." ”
"Actually, the catchers also found something in Qingniu Village."
Found another thing? Asatsuki's spirit perked up, "Could it be related to the slaughter of Qingniu Village?" ”
Li Jincheng shook his head, "Xia Guan doesn't know, according to the head catcher, it is a round token, and there are strange fierce beasts on it. Li Jincheng recalled, and repeated the description of the head catcher at that time to Asatsuki.
"That's pretty much it."
After listening to Li Jincheng's description, Qianyue frowned, she knew a little about the famous sects in the Demon Dao, but she had never heard of the appearance of the token that Li Jincheng said.
"And where is the token now?" Maybe she'll find something when she sees the real thing.
Li Jincheng lowered his head a little ashamedly, "This token was lost on the way back from the headhunters, and later I knew that it was the demon cultivator who did it." I don't dare to dig deeper. So they didn't send them to look for it again. ”
Lost? Asatsuki was helpless, but finally one more clue.
"Shallow Moon Immortal, do you want to send someone to look for it again?" Li Jincheng suggested, hoping to make up for the mistakes.
"Forget it, don't go, I've already been there, if we don't find it, it won't help you send someone to look for it."
Did Asatsuki go to find it? Li Jincheng was a little surprised, but when he thought about it, he felt that something was wrong, "Since the immortal went to look for it, didn't he find that token?" ”
"Nope."
"It's impossible, the head catcher clearly said that it was lost in Qingniu Village." Li Jincheng muttered quietly.
In fact, this is also where Asatsuki is confused. That day, she was sure she had searched carefully, and if the token was still there, there was no reason why she hadn't found it.
"Maybe someone picked it up later, after all, it's been a long time since this happened."
Is that so? Li Jincheng paced back and forth, since he told Asatsuki, he also hoped that Asatsuki could really catch the murderer, and if nothing else, at least he could ensure that he would not be retaliated against, but now it seems that this matter is more complicated than he imagined.
"The whole village of Qingniu Village was slaughtered, and it was too late for ordinary people to take a detour, no one would deliberately go in, maybe the demon cultivator who slaughtered the village came back and picked it up." This is perhaps the most plausible explanation.
Asatsuki also felt that this was probably the case, "I also have to bother Master Li to pay more attention to this matter for Asatsuki, and if there are any clues to inform Asatsuki in time." ”
The strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, so Asatsuki has always been very polite to Li Jincheng.
"That's for sure!" Li Jincheng assured that he was fine.
Everything that should be said has been said, Qianyue didn't have the hobby of listening to other people's corners in the middle of the night, and soon left the county office, she also had to go to the head catcher to understand the situation, Li Jincheng was not directly involved in this case after all, the reason why he was the first to find him was because he was an official, and he knew more than ordinary people, after all, this is a world of cultivation, and if an official doesn't know anything, he doesn't know how to die.
After Qianyue left, Li Jincheng was truly relieved. Although there was a clear agreement between the dynasty and the cultivation world that monks were not allowed to kill innocents indiscriminately, especially officials, this agreement, but in this world where the strong are respected, it could at most restrain the disciples of small sects. This also leads to the fact that the people who are officials in the Ten Directions World are very modest, but they are strong and do things for the people, once it comes to the cultivators, they will turn a blind eye and pass, and the people will also accept their fate, once they provoke the cultivators, they can only ask for more blessings.
Carrying the lamp, Li Jincheng turned back to the bedroom.
"Xianggong." Mrs. Li sat up, she didn't sleep until Li Jincheng came back.
"Madam, why haven't you slept yet, didn't you tell you not to wait for me, you don't have a good rest, you are going to be sick again." Li Jincheng complained lightly while taking off his shoes, but his heart was still warm, he knew that his wife was not worried about him.
"You and I have been married for more than ten years, and you have never been out in the middle of the night for so long, do you think I can not worry? If you don't come back, my heart will always be hanging, and I will not fall until you come back. ”
"Haven't I come back? Well, don't worry, it's over. Li Jincheng got on the bed and gently hugged his wife in his arms.
Leaning on her husband's arms and feeling her husband's body temperature, Mrs. Li's heart settled down, Li Jincheng went out for a long time, she was alone, her heart was flustered, but she couldn't go out rashly, and she was very tormented.
"What the hell is going on?" I don't know what's going on, Mrs. Li is sure that she doesn't want to sleep well these days.
Li Jincheng naturally knew his wife, and since he was husband and wife, this matter was temporarily over, and there was nothing that could not be said, so he told her the truth as it was.
After listening to Mrs. Li, I was afraid for a while, these cultivators were all lawless, and if one of her husbands was careless and annoyed them, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Listening to you, that Shallow Moon Immortal is not like those other cultivators, she can handle it so lightly, it is really a blessing for you and me." Mrs. Li said with emotion.
Li Jincheng also felt the same way, "That's true, I still looked down on her a little during the day, I didn't expect the immortal to know it for a long time, Fang Cai, I'm really afraid that I won't be able to accompany my wife in the future, I didn't expect the shallow moon immortal to be so easy to talk to, I told her about it, and she let me come back." Thinking of what happened just now, Li Jincheng hugged his wife tightly, fortunately, fortunately, he told the Qianyue Immortal about the current affairs, but fortunately, the Qianyue Immortal didn't care.
