Chapter 873: White Lotus Holy Maiden (I)
Being stared at by Lu Zhen like this, Yin Xiang only felt a burst of pressure rushing to his face, making his breathing not so smooth. But he is not an ordinary person, even if he does, he only shrinks back slightly, his eyes droop, and he avoids the aggressive momentum in front of him and says: "Brother Zheng, what you are asking really doesn't make sense, we are naturally the same as you, and we are also kind-hearted businessmen who want to help the victims of the disaster in Yingze County!" ”
"Good businessman? I can't see it, can I? Lu Zhen said coldly: "Although you did take out a lot of food at the beginning, what you did afterwards has nothing to do with kindness, right?" ”
"Brother Zheng, I don't understand what you're saying at all, what are you referring to, can you explain it?" Yin Xiang had already adjusted his mentality at this time, and suddenly looked up at the other party and asked, obviously a little fearless.
"While I took someone to Kaifeng, you sent someone to rob Zhu Xuan's family's grain storage, and then planted this matter on our heads, do you say that this matter is really seamless and cannot be noticed?" Lu Zhen sneered and said: "Of course, it may be excusable to do this, after all, it is the Zhu family who is rich and unkind, and hoards are in front of it, but you didn't distribute the food you took to the victims again, how can this be explained?" Do you dare to say that all this is done for the sake of the local people and not for ulterior motives? ”
"I ......" Yin Xiang wanted to deny it, but after looking at Lu Jin's eyes, the quibbles that had reached his lips couldn't be spoken. It's not that he can't speak because of his weak heart, but because he knows from the other party's Shennong Se that since the other party dares to speak out so bluntly, he must have the relevant evidence. This made him a little suspicious, they did this matter neatly, that is, the people in the county town at the time didn't know the truth, where did the other party who had just come back know?
As if seeing the doubts in his heart, Lu Zhen smiled: "If people don't know unless they do it, as long as you do it, you will leave clues." For example, the amount of grain that you have now hidden is enough to prove the crimes you have committed before. ”
"You...... Have you found that batch of food? Yin Xiang's body suddenly shook, and he was caught off guard when he suddenly killed him, and subconsciously exposed himself.
Lu Zhen nodded: "Yes, it's in a deserted courtyard in the west of the city, just now, I asked my brothers to go over and get the food out." With this amount of food, I think it will be enough to last a few more days. ”
Originally, Yin Xiang was still a little worried that Lu Jin's words were deceiving him, but after hearing the other party mention the direction of the west of the city, the last bit of expectation also dissipated, and his eyes became evasive again. Seeing that his heart was beginning to weaken, Lu Zhen took advantage of the situation and said, "Aren't you surprised why I know where you hide your food?" In fact, if you hadn't made the wrong mind and used the wrong mind, although I would still doubt you, I would not have been able to get such evidence. It was your own people who led the way that allowed us to find the food. ”
"The way my people lead? That's impossible! Yin Xiang hurriedly denied that he knew very well the position and heart of the people under him, and these people would never betray him.
Lu Zhen hurriedly replied: "Of course they didn't take the initiative to take us over, just because they wanted to do something, they had to go to the place where the grain was hidden." In fact, if it weren't for your evil intentions, I wouldn't have wanted to take you down. ”
"What are you talking about?" Yin Xiang's face finally became ugly, and his heart was beating rapidly, but at this time, he could only pretend to be stupid, just as if he didn't know that there was such a thing.
"Your people want to poison the people of the city with food mixed with poison in order to achieve ulterior purposes. Do you think I'm going to let you get away with it? Lu Jin's tone suddenly tightened: "Yin Xiang, I thought you were still a little conscientious, even though you did have selfish intentions before, but you finally helped the local people, so I don't want to be your enemy." But now, you are trying to kill innocents for your own selfishness, and I can't let it go any longer. What you have to do now is to report your identity and origin, and then obediently arrest you and let the government convict you. ”
Being exposed by Lu Zhen made Yin Xiang hesitate for a while, but soon, he forcibly calmed down again, and his body, which had shrunk back slightly, also followed: "Brother Zheng, aren't you joking?" It's useless for you to just talk about these accusations, you have to come up with some evidence, right? ”
"Naturally, there is evidence, and it should be brought over soon." Lu Zhen turned his head to look at the sky outside, and replied with some confidence.
As if to confirm the truth of his words, there was a sudden commotion outside, and then a group of men twisted and came to the door with several frightened looks. They rushed over with them, as well as a group of officials from the county government, all of whom looked surprised and uneasy, not knowing what was going on.
Seeing this, Lu Zhen got up and said to several officials: "Your Excellency has come just in time, and this matter is about to be handed over to you for disposal!" With a glance, one of his men pushed one of them through the door, and with a flick of his hand, he threw a bag full of food on the ground.
"This is ......" Wang Ningxian looked at this and that with some puzzlement, he was a little confused.
"Say it." Lu Zhen nodded.
"My lords, we were ordered to keep an eye on the porridge shed, and it turned out that these men were secretly planning to replace the food we had prepared in the morning with this food. However, these grains are highly poisonous, and once the people eat them, many people will die because of them. ”
"What...... Is this true? Wang Ningxian and the others suddenly changed their faces, and their voices became even more stammering, and they asked in a trembling voice.
"This is going to ask Yin Gongzi." Lu Zhen looked at Yin Xiang, who had become silent: "Now that the matter has been obtained, what else do you have to say?" If you have to quibble, just eat some of the food in this bag with your men, as long as you don't die, even if I am framing you, I am willing to sit back! ”
As soon as these words came out, the few people who were caught on the spot immediately trembled, but they didn't dare to agree to such an arrangement. But they knew that the food in the bag had been poisoned in the morning, and if they ate it, they would surely die.
Yin Xiang's face changed violently, and finally returned to his original state, staring at Lu Zhen deeply: "Boss Zheng, you are not an ordinary businessman, are you?" It seems that I still underestimated you after all, which led to today's loss...... You're really a good means. When he said this, coupled with the reaction of those under him, it naturally confirmed the fact that there was a big problem with these grains and that they had bad intentions.
As soon as these words came out, those county officials were stunned, it turned out that the two who seemed to them to be just ordinary businessmen actually had other identities. This also made them look at the two of them with a lot of doubts, and they didn't know who to believe.
Lu Zhen didn't argue, just smiled and said: "I'm just more careful than ordinary people, and I still can't compare to you in terms of means." He actually thought of such a vicious method, and wanted to put many innocent people to death to achieve his goal, which is really powerful. ”
"No matter how powerful I am, it's not that you have uncovered the truth, who are you?" Yin Xiang smiled bitterly and suddenly asked.
"Who are you?" Lu Zhen also immediately asked rhetorically.
The county officials outside were stupid, and they didn't know what to do. At this moment, a figure suddenly flashed next to him, just like that, it swept past the stunned crowd, and rushed directly into the house, and when he came to Lu Jin, there was a whistling sound, and a cold light slashed directly towards the door in front of him. It's so fast that it's as if there are more people in the room in the blink of an eye.
This sudden assassination caught people off guard, and several officials even let out an exclamation, but they didn't react subconsciously at all. At the same time, they secretly screamed in their hearts, this time, I am afraid that this Boss Zheng with a different identity will suffer.
But immediately, the change regenerated, and at the same time that this person suddenly attacked Lu Jin, another figure who was standing outside the door also moved. And this person was faster, he was the first to strike, and stopped in front of Lu Zhen before the other party, and then with a loud shout, a knife actually came out of thin air, just on this knife, and completely blocked this assassination.
It was only at this time that everyone could see the appearance of the two sides clearly, one was to follow Yin Xiang all the time, looking quite honest and clever, and the one who was faster than him was the more low-key Yao Gan.
Now that Lu Zhen has decided to have a showdown today and expose the other party's conspiracy, it is naturally impossible not to take precautions. In fact, as early as when Yin Xiang was invited over, Yao Gan had already been guarding outside, in order to prevent them from jumping off the wall in a hurry. Therefore, when Gao Ming suddenly burst into action, he didn't even twitch his eyelids, and the old god was still sitting there, because he believed that Yao Gan's ability was enough to ensure his own safety.
Gao Ming, on the other hand, was obviously taken aback. His knife was fired with all his might, and it was almost a sneak attack, and there were not many people in the world who could block or dodge, but he was easily blocked by the other party, which made him have to re-examine the strength of the other party. I'm afraid that this Zheng Lu force is still above his own family.
Moreover, now that the crime has been exposed, even the people in the county government will not stand idly by, and entanglement at this time will only put themselves and "him" in danger......
Knowing this, he quickly made a decision, the knife in his hand flashed again, and he slashed Lu Jin, taking advantage of the moment when Yao Gan hurriedly protected Lu Jin, he suddenly pulled back, grabbed Yin Xiang's waist, retreated sharply at a faster speed, and jumped out with a breath......
He actually chose to escape!
