Chapter 261: The Wind
Without other Taoist priests coming to verify, Cao Ge saw the panicked look of the little official, and guessed what the truth of the case was.
Although this little official is not his student, he is also a child of a poor family, so he has a good relationship with Sun Yaozu.
He was heartbroken and said, "Where did Yaozu and Chu San offend you, you actually did such a thing that lost your conscience. ”
Just because he was prejudiced against the aristocratic faction, he was aggressive in this case, and almost killed one more person.
The petty official trembled and still denied:
"Lord Cao, I didn't! Even if the talisman is mine, it is not enough to prove that I have cursed and harmed others. I think Brother Sun is my own eldest brother, how can I harm him? They tried their best to slander me, they wanted to exonerate Chu San. ”
"Our poor disciples have no power and no power, if you are also deceived, then I will really be wronged!"
The Hanmen faction outside the public court shouted for support.
They actually don't care how Sun Yaozu died, they just can't get used to seeing these noble-born children have prosperous official fortunes and are like fish in water in the officialdom.
With this opportunity to trample the children of the family under their feet, how could they let it go.
Cao Ge was stunned, but he didn't expect that now that the case is gradually becoming clear, they are still so aggressive.
But the arrogance was only three seconds, and the black armor guard drew his sword and showed a cold light, and everyone was immediately silenced, shrunk their shoulders and took two steps back.
There was silence inside and outside the courtroom.
Cao Ge's henchman finally dragged a warlock in: "My lord, this person has been setting up a stall on the street to help people look at their faces, he must be credible." ”
Cao Ge Lao had also seen him a few times on the street, and he believed that this person would not have anything to do with Yuwang's Mansion and Anyang's Hou Mansion.
But......
He asked, "It's just a looker, so will he look at the talisman of the evil sect?" ”
When the warlock heard that he was being looked down upon, his beard rose up.
"Nonsense, I've been learning the Tao for decades, and I'm proficient in everything! What is the talisman of the evil sect? The warlock said, "But explain in advance, it is more expensive to look at the talisman than to look at the appearance, and you have to pay three taels of silver!" ”
Ye Siheng couldn't help but look at Nanli, this person's behavior and speech were somewhat similar to her.
Cao Ge said busily: "It's easy to say, please take a look." ”
The warlock will take the torn sigil.
Unexpectedly, at this time, the talisman suddenly burned!
He was startled, "How is it on fire!" ”
The flames enveloped the sigil, almost devouring it clean.
Nanli secretly screamed in her heart that it was not good, but her hand was not idle, and she quickly pinched a handprint and knocked it down, and the flames on the talisman seal gradually dispersed.
The talisman seal was already torn, and now it was burned by the fire.
Nanli's face sank and sank, and she looked at the officials and students outside the hall.
A flash of joy flashed on the little official's face, and he shouted: "This is a fire talisman, it will burn automatically, it is not some evil talisman seal!" If you see it with your own eyes, you must testify for me, but don't let others wronged me at will. ”
Now that the talisman is gone, the warlock cannot identify and testify.
As for what Nanli said, because he wanted to avoid suspicion, his testimony was naturally useless.
The people of the Hanmen faction also shouted, saying that the curse was just a fictitious thing, and they didn't want to make the petty officials take the blame.
"What's it called!" The warlock picked up the remnants of the talisman and squinted his eyes slightly, "I have been setting up a stall on the street for several years, if I don't have the ability, how can I have regular customers come to patronize all the time." ”
With a twist of his wrist, his palm retracted the cold aura of the talisman.
At this scene, Nanli and Master Ling Zhen were all amazed when they saw it.
Cao Ge hurriedly asked, "Sir, this talisman has been burned like this, can you still see it?" ”
"I can see it." The warlock turned his head with a solemn expression, "But you have to add three taels of silver!" ”
The muscles on Cao Ge's old face twitched, and he could only say, "It's no problem how much silver you have." ”
As long as you can figure out the truth.
The warlock smiled happily when he heard this, and said, "It's just a spell, drawn by the soul of the dead, and the charm breaks people to death, and the means are really vicious." ”
The smile of the petty official fell.
Cao Ge's heart trembled, and he pointed to the corpse and said, "That gentleman may be able to see why he died?" ”
Although the cut of the abdomen had been stitched up, the warlock only needed to glance at it and said, "Isn't it that he has been hit by the death curse, there is still a little breath on his body, and his heart veins burst, but there is no pain." ”
Nan Li's eyes were appreciative, "Sir." ”
"False praise." The warlock arched his hand casually, "But this talisman still has some room for improvement, if I do it, the talisman will turn into smoke and dust when it is torn, and there will be no traces of the spell on the living person." Hey, the ability to do this charm is still almost good. ”
Suddenly, he waved his hand at everyone again, "Although I am powerful, I don't want to do these hurtful things, you can find me, no matter how much money you give, you don't have to discuss." ”
Cao Ge Lao was shocked in his heart and looked at his henchman.
The henchman understood what he meant, and quickly shook his head, indicating that he didn't say anything.
Cao Ge Lao was convinced at this moment that Sun Yaozu was not killed, but was planted with a death curse!
"What else do you have to justify?!" He was furious.
The Hanmen faction and the others looked at each other.
The warlocks who had been dragged back from outside had all said so, and they could not find the words to refute them.
The little official was already terrified in his heart, and he wanted to escape, but the talisman was attached to his body, and he couldn't move at all.
Chu Huan asked angrily, "Is it me who has a grudge against you, or is Sun Yaozu a grudge against you?" ”
If it weren't for the presence of his sixth sister, he really thought that he had killed someone, even if he didn't pay for his life, he would be in self-blame for the rest of his life.
"I ......" The little official's eyes were fluttering, and he was speechless.
"Grinding, Ah Li, use the mantra, right?" Ye Siheng didn't want to waste time.
Nanli took a few steps closer, observed the little official, and said, "Someone has done kung fu on him, and the mantra charm will not work." ”
The warlock also praised it: "The princess is amazing." ”
The eyes are quite poisonous.
"False praise." Nanli learned to speak, and she looked at the little official again, "This should be to prevent me, the spell is not easy to break, it seems that you have no grudge against Sun Yaozu, you just want to use his life to put my third brother to death." ”
The little official broke out in a cold sweat and swallowed his saliva, "The princess spared her life, someone gave me a large sum of money to do this." ”
Now, he can't defend himself, it's better to tell the truth, even if he can't fight for a glimmer of life, he can save his family.
Ye Siheng and Nan Li are not surprised, this evil evil sect's harmful Fu Seal is worth a lot of silver on the black market, this little official is so rich, and his family is not rich, how can he afford it.
Nanli asked, "Who is it?" Do you know who you are? ”
"The man came to me in the dark, but he couldn't see my face clearly, he only gave me a deposit and a talisman, and taught me how to do it." The petty official was afraid that they would not believe it, so he said very quickly, "The 1,000 taels of silver tickets are still hidden under my bed, the prince, the princess, I really don't know the rest!" ”
When he took over such a business, he naturally knew that he shouldn't ask too much, after all, it was no good to know too much.
