A group of officers and soldiers surrounded Mu Bai, the innkeeper saw this situation, quietly dodged in the direction of the kitchen, never thought that as soon as he opened the kitchen curtain, he saw Xiao Er lying in a pool of blood, the innkeeper screamed, frantically fled outside, and shouted: "There are demons!

Liu Gongzi kicked the innkeeper to the ground and said, "Isn't the demon on it, what are you doing so crazy?" There are demons in the kitchen. Liu Gongzi glanced at the innkeeper suspiciously and said, "If you dare to deceive Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will chop you!"

After lifting the curtain, the officers and soldiers were startled, turned around and said tremblingly: "Liu... Liu Gongzi, there are really demons. After hearing this, Monk Kulian walked to the kitchen to take a look, turned his head to Mu Bai and said, "Okay!

Mu Bai frowned and looked at the shriveled corpse and said, "Since I returned to the inn, I haven't left the room. How to kill someone? The innkeeper cringed and said, "This... The guest officer really never left the room. ”

Liu Gongzi walked up to the innkeeper and stared at the innkeeper and asked, "Are you sure he doesn't have a room? Are you saying that this Gongzi and Master Ku are spewing blood? The shopkeeper has been open for many years." The innkeeper looked at Mu Bai and said dodgingly: "I... I saw it with my own eyes, and that ... The guest officer had left the room. ”

Liu Gongzi laughed and said: "The stolen goods have been obtained! The evidence is conclusive! Someone is coming! Arrest that guy for me!" A group of officers and soldiers immediately surrounded Mu Bai.

"I'll see who dares!" Cao Tieyi shouted as he appeared from the door of the inn. When Liu Gongzi saw Cao Tieyi, he shouted: "What kind of thing are you! You dare to take care of Uncle Ben's affairs! I think you also want to be an evil cultivator, come here, arrest him together!"

"Bold, all stand down for me!" a cheerful voice came, and a moment later a middle-aged scribe walked up to Mu Bai. "Fang Lin, the city lord of the city, has seen Mr. Mu. The middle-aged scribe saluted Mu Bai.

"Fang... City Lord Fang, you... Why are you here!" Liu Gongzi looked at Fang Lin with a pale face.

Fang Lin slapped Liu Gongzi and shouted: "Bastard thing! He actually transferred officers and soldiers privately, and used them to fight against Confucian disciples! In addition, check which battalion of officers and soldiers this is, and arrest and put all the people involved in prison and put them in prison, and the hand of the Liu family's forces is too long!"

Liu Gongzi covered his face and screamed, "You dare to beat me! Fang Lin, if you arrest me, our Liu family will not let you go!" Fang Lin turned a deaf ear and waved his hand to let the city guards who followed behind take Liu Gongzi away.

Liu Gongzi struggled violently and begged for help from Monk Kulian: "Master Ku, Master Ku save me!" Monk Kulian said to Fang Lin: "City Lord Fang, since that donor is a true disciple of Buddhism, how can you explain this shriveled corpse?" Fang Lin looked at the corpse, beckoned to the people around him and said, "You can tell me in detail about what happened here." The man beside him bowed his head and told Fang Lin what had happened.

Fang Lin said: "The innkeeper colluded with the demon to kill the shopkeeper, and then blamed the matter on the Confucian disciples. Arrest the innkeeper. When the innkeeper heard this, he wept bitterly, knelt down and begged for mercy: "It's not about the villain! It's not about the villain!" The hard-working monk clasped his hands together and said, "Since the matter here has been settled, the poor monk has retired." With that, he ignored Liu Gongzi's plea for help and left the inn.

After Fang Lin finished dealing with the matter, he said to Mu Bai: "Mr. Mu, there have been demons in the city for some time, please move to the City Lord's Mansion." Mu Bai looked at Cao Tieyi, and Cao Tieyou nodded.

Mu Bai said: "Thank you to City Lord Fang for breaking the siege, then this time will trouble City Lord Fang." Mu Bai got into the carriage and left the inn, heading in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion.

In Liu's mansion, Liu Yushi, the head of the Liu family, and the bitter lotus monk were discussing in the lobby, and suddenly a gorgeous lady with a tear-stained face suddenly broke in, and the lady threw herself into Liu Yushi's arms and cried: "Master! I heard that my son was caught by that Fang Lin." Woo woo, that Fang Lin dared to arrest my son, the master must save our child!" The servant behind said with a panicked face: "Master, the second aunt must break in, we didn't stop it." Liu Yushi waved his hand at the servant, and the servant hurriedly knelt down and retreated.

Liu Yushi stroked the back of the second aunt and comforted: "It's okay, our children will be released back in a few days, Fang Lin won't tear his face with the Liu family now, at most he will just make a show." The second aunt wiped her tears and said, "Will that child suffer in prison, I heard that there are many torture methods in prison." Liu Yushi snorted: "It's not that you are too spoiled by him on weekdays, you know every day that you spend all day drinking, and you don't learn the same serious skills." Don't worry, you may suffer a little, but Fang Lin doesn't dare to torture him. The second aunt got up and wiped away her tears and said, "Then the concubine body will rest assured, and the concubine body will not disturb the master and Master Ku to discuss things." "Then he left the place.

After the second aunt left, Liu Yushi instructed his cronies: "Break the leg of the servant who served today and throw it into the Ten Thousand Snakes Cave." In addition, I told our people to take care of the prison side, so that the stinky boy would suffer less. The cronies nodded and left the lobby. Liu Yushi made a cup of tea and asked Monk Kulian: "According to the information provided by Master Ku, that Mu Bai is definitely a Confucian person, and it is also mixed with the power of the Three Princes and the Wind Chasing Iron Horse, Fang Lin has really picked up a treasure this time, if Mu Bai agrees to help Fang Lin, the balance of power in the city will definitely be broken." That stinky boy doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it on weekdays, so he can cause trouble for me. ”

Monk Kulian took a sip of tea and said: "Although Mu Bai's kid is handed over to me to deal with, as for the forces of the three princes and the wind-chasing iron horse, I don't walk in the imperial court, and I don't know their power very well, is their power so strong that it affects the balance?" Liu Yushi sighed and said: "Master Ku doesn't know, the third prince read all the classics in the imperial study at the age of eight, and when he discussed knowledge with the college students in the Hanlin Academy in the same year, he defeated the college students in the entire Hanlin Academy. At the age of thirteen, he enlisted in the army and never lost his record, and at the age of fourteen, the army of Qi was pressing, and the three princes went to the military camp of Qi alone to lobby the marshal of Qi, and the army of Qi retreated the next day. The entire Yu Kingdom thought that the three princes were the next successors of the Yu Kingdom, and the other princes had no sense of existence after the three princes' amazing talents. Who would have thought that the three princes would worship under the academy, according to the regulations set by the three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, the three princes have no possibility of inheriting the throne. ”

Monk Kulian asked curiously: "Since the third prince has entered the academy, what are you afraid of him doing?" Liu Yushi smiled bitterly: "Master Ku doesn't know, although the three princes worship under the academy, more than half of the army is the old department of the three princes, and the power of the three princes in the court occupies half of the central department, coupled with the acquiescence of the emperor of Yuguo, the power of the three princes has grown even more savagely in the past few years. Although the three princes gave up their inheritance, it took a long time for Yu to digest the influence of the three princes. Even if Fang Lin only obtained the approval of the three princes, it was equivalent to gaining the recognition of half of the forces of the Yu Kingdom, don't look at this recognition as not substantially helpful, but the subsequent impact is unpredictable. ”

Monk Kulian said thoughtfully: "According to the intelligence, the participation of the forces of the three princes seems to be related to the Confucian disciple Mu Bai, if that Confucian disciple has an accident, then the forces of the three princes will not be interested in staying in the city." Liu Yushi asked in surprise: "Don't you want to... Don't worry, according to the informant's information, that Confucian disciple Mu Bai may not necessarily help Fang Lin, I will visit Mu Bai first, and listen to what that Mu Bai means before making plans. Monk Kulian touched the rosary on his chest and said, "Amitabha, then I am waiting for your news, if that Confucian disciple doesn't know what to do, this seat will personally send him away!"
