Chapter 377: Gambling on life and death
I don't know why Pei Tianxuan didn't think about it, so he promised to take me back to the capital prison mansion, although I knew that he wouldn't cheat me, but when I asked him the reason afterwards, he kept laughing and didn't answer, and I couldn't hold on to this matter, so I had to give up.
In fact, the Grand Judge of the King of Qin did not let me wait for two days, and at noon the next day, Mo Xun's welcome ceremony was not ready, and the convoy of the Grand Judge had already entered the city, the Yin soldiers cleaned the streets, and the gong opened the way, and the solemn atmosphere made the entire Guangping Mansion become much more deserted.
Mo Xun didn't restrict my freedom, but the greeting had nothing to do with me, a "prisoner", so I hid in the dark and peeked.
In the middle of the team, several silver armor draped and huge Netherworld giant elephants were particularly conspicuous, and the strongest one of the giant elephants was on its back, carrying a double-layer car with hexagonal cornices, carved with rows of Sanskrit characters, slightly exuding silver light in the dim sky.
Under each eaves of the car hung a long string of silver bells, with the pace of the giant elephant, the silver bells rang very regularly, the sound was long and weird, it sounded a bit like the corpse bell shaken by the corpse chaser.
The giant elephant knelt down in front of the yamen, its own attendant carried the ebony stairs to greet him, the maidservant lifted the sedan curtain, and a man wearing a brocade official uniform on a red background walked out, but the person's face really surprised me.
The rumored judges are all with a big black face, with a tense beard, a black gauze hat like a seven-grade sesame official, a life and death book in one hand and a judge's pen in the other, a bloody mouth, and a fierce appearance, such an image can be said to be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
And this person, with a white face, sword eyebrows and a high nose, red lips and white teeth, not to mention, a pair of starry eyes are as clear as a blue pond and a mountain spring, looking at it has a kind of intoxicating charm, in terms of the aesthetics of the yang world, even if it is not a little fresh meat, it can definitely be called a jade-faced Langjun, especially the hint of a smile at the corner of the mouth, which makes people feel close.
If you have to say that he has something hideous and vicious, that is, there is a pale red scar on his right eye, which goes up to the eyebrow bone and down to the cheekbone, but it does not hurt the eye.
I was stunned by this person's face, and it wasn't until another person came out of the sedan behind him that I came back to my senses.
came out, it was actually a woman with a black veil covering her face, and her long-sleeved brocade robe could not hide her delicate figure, and she could be seen to be a beauty at a glance.
However, the chief priest still has his family with him when he patrols the prison? Yin Si also has the saying that public money travels?
The eyes of the chief judge inadvertently glanced in the direction where I was, I hurriedly withdrew my gaze and hid behind the window, glanced at Pei Tianxuan beside me, and I smiled bitterly: "This time you have been a great-grandson of me, I'm afraid it's a big trouble." ”
"Oh? Why? ”
"This person is not good-looking, and I am afraid that he is a difficult master to answer correctly."
"Hehe, what do you see, tell me."
"The heavenly court is full and the earth pavilion is round, isn't it just a person like him? It stands to reason that such a person has a frank nature, but the white face does not need the main yin, and the right face has a scar on the main ruthless, this master is by no means a good stubble when he is alive, and he is not a good stubble, and he is afraid that he will be more cold-blooded and ruthless, let him judge me, he will do things according to the rules and regulations, and the law will not be merciful. ”
Reasoning, I am the culprit in the Su family annihilation case, and the cause and effect of thousands of lives are enough for me to never be reborn.
But if it is from the perspective of human feelings, it is excusable for me to kill Su Cheng, one is to protect myself and save people, and the other is that the Su family is insatiable and goes against the sky, they should be punished by God, and I killed them can be said to be doing the right thing for heaven. Moreover, I also have the power to dispose of them.
In this way, how to judge the case has become the key, biased in my favor, and it can be said that I am responsible for enforcing the law impartially. If you don't favor me, you can say that you are overstepping your authority and killing bloodthirsty.
People have two skins in their mouths, it depends on what they want to say, and the feeling that this big priest sentenced me is really not good.
Who knew that Pei Tianxuan couldn't help but laugh when he heard what I said, as if he didn't understand my anxiety at all: "Your physiognomy is not inaccurate, I really don't know what kind of mood he will feel if he listens to your judgment." ”
"Oh, my uncle and ancestor, you are still in the mood to make fun of me, hurry up and help me think of a way!"
Before Pei Tianxuan could answer, there was a knock on the door, and a servant came in with a hurry on his face and reported: "The chief priest has been sentenced to be promoted to the court to ask about the case, and the master of the capital prison will take you over, ...... you see?"
"So fast?" I looked at the yin lock in his hand in surprise, nodded helplessly, and asked him to tie me up.
It's too late to figure out a way now, so you can only improvise, and as for the outcome, it's up to fate.
Pei Tianxuan saw my dejected appearance and patted me on the shoulder: "Why don't we make a bet between our ancestors and grandchildren?" ”
I really don't know what kind of medicine he sells in his gourd, and he still has the leisure to bet with me after this stall, so he simply said angrily: "What to bet on, anyway, your great-grandson and I are also a dying person, and I am not afraid of losing to you again." ”
"I see that your kid looks good today, although he is not lucky, but his life is safe, presumably the big judge should be lenient on you, why don't you gamble on your life or death?"
"Well, just do what you want to do, when I die, you will bless my poplar tree to learn the magic and pass on the Yang family's lineage. If I can come back alive, whatever you say, as long as you can bring it up, I will do it! ”
"That's what you said."
"Well, I said, hurry up!"
"10,000 paper figurines you tied with your own hands!"
"Huh?" Although I was sure that I didn't need to pay back this account at all, I was still taken aback by his lion's wide opening posture. There is a method of tying paper people in the magic of the credit knife man, practiced to the fine, can be used as a stand-in, even if it is superficial, it can also be used to cast the ecstasy array of sprinkling beans into soldiers, but this thing is time-consuming, and ten or eight paper people are not used, and it feels quite chicken.
But if you can really get together 10,000 paper figures, the power is absolutely extraordinary.
I subconsciously rolled my eyes: "Ten thousand? How long does that have to go? ”
"Can it be staged, isn't this set popular now?"
The corners of my mouth twitched, even if it was divided into a hundred installments, I would have to pay it back for two lifetimes......
He scolded me with a smile: "Don't dare to bet? ”
"Hey, bet, Poplar will leave it to you." I turned around and followed the servant out of the door, refusing to give this old man a chance to talk back.
When I went out, I found that the Yin soldiers had guarded the government very tightly, and we were interrogated twice at a distance of dozens of steps from the courtyard to the lobby. ”
