Chapter 12: The Haunted Place

An Yangbo was against the matter of changing the local trial, but Chen Qingfeng of Jingmen Mansion was happy from the bottom of his heart.

He moved out of the law with righteous words and told An Yangbo that according to the law, his son died in Douhu County, and it was not his turn to come here to try the case.

If he is not satisfied with the result of the trial, he can go to Dali Temple to raise an objection and ask Dali Temple to retry it. This matter really has nothing to do with the Jingmen Mansion, even if everyone is very familiar, but you have to talk about the jurisdiction, and you can't run around at will.

After making trouble for a long time, An Yangbo finally had no choice but to pull the body and take people to Douhu County.

Zhuang Rou was always watching the carriage of the little king on a horse all the way, and wanted to talk to him on the road about whether to let himself participate in this case. But as soon as she spoke, the cold and gloomy gaze of the person next to her would look.

She flattened her mouth, and asked speechlessly: "Brother Lin, why do you always stare at me like this, I am a yellow flower girl who has not yet married, and you don't shy away from suspicion." ”

"Huh?" The man next to her was dressed in indigo blue, his face was serious, and he was looking at her with raised eyebrows, obviously not knowing how to talk, but it didn't affect his indifferent attitude.

"You are not allowed to look at me again, you are a disciple, you will not be able to eat in prison." Zhuang Rou said solemnly.

Lin Fei squinted at her, if it was possible, he didn't want to take care of this kind of case at all. It's a pity that this case involves powerful people, and An Yangbo didn't believe in Xiaojunwang's ability to handle the case, so Dali Temple sent him over.

This woman is the suspect, but she still has to follow openly, and she has to let her clear her grievances by herself. The magnates like this kind of whim the most, and it feels like it's fun to have a woman come over to handle the case.

It's fun for them, but Lin Fei doesn't think so, it's better to press her directly into the prison.

He said with a cold face: "I see that you are because you are a suspect, and I doubt that you will do anything wrong to the little county king, which is also the duty of being arrested." If you don't want to be watched by me, you don't look into the carriage and ride your horse honestly. ”

Zhuang Rou looked at him carefully, and suddenly asked, "Lin Fei, what is your ranking on the Falcon List?" ”

Lin Fei said coldly: "Ninety-seven, what advice do you have?" ”

"Yes, I want to take your place next year when I take the exam." Zhuang Rou said calmly.

"Huh?" Lin Fei looked at her in a daze, and saw her staring at her very seriously, only to feel that it was really a ghost, and the current girl really didn't know how thick the sky was.

Zhuang Rou rode on the horse and said confidently: "You just wait, don't cry when the time comes." ”

Lin Fei replied coldly: "Really? Maybe you're going to ask about it after the fall, so let's think about how to survive first. ”

"Hmph." Zhuang Rou snorted, picked up the horsewhip and whipped the horse's buttocks, then rode to the front and ran towards Douhu County alone.

Chu Xia lifted the curtain of the car, looked at Zhuang Rou, who had already run away, and said inexplicably: "This girl is too disobedient, can you let Dali Temple come again, this is like releasing wild horses." ”

"The king of the county, my subordinates will go to Dali Temple immediately, and ask them to call the old woman who sent her back to replace her." The head of the guard Xiao Ran said.

"Wait, old woman?" Chu Xia looked at him with a frightened face, and said angrily: "A beautiful man like this king, you actually want to get me some old women to come over?" Forget it, it's just her, it's a big deal to wait for this case to be over, and you can choose someone to come out. Then she will make a bet that if she loses to one of you, she will obey the king's words and serve me honestly. ”

Xiao Ran asked seriously, "What if she wins?" ”

"......" Chu Xia glanced at him fiercely, "If you dare to release the water, I will go to the Qing/Lou for a walk, and wait for my mother to clean you up." Then he lowered the curtain and returned to the car, and when he thought that there would be a good show to watch later, he couldn't help but laugh with his eyebrows.

In the face of such a naΓ―ve little county king, his guard captain Xiao Ran didn't say anything, it was impossible for them to lose.

Zhuang Rou rushed to Douhu County first, the small county seat is located on the edge of Douhu Lake, full of garden houses, all large and small courtyards of powerful and wealthy businessmen. There is only one main street, and almost all the shops are on these two sides, but the place where the wind flowers are far away from the street is all concentrated on the edge of Douhu.

In broad daylight, there are many flower boats on the lake, and the light music floats from afar, scratching the heart and liver, just want to go to the boat to listen, what a beauty this singer is.

"It's not dark yet, and there are so many boats on board." Zhuang Rou was disappointed when he saw this county, there is no complicated population, at most some mothers will come to sue him, and someone will not give silver after drinking flower wine.

There is no big case in my heart, but there is not half of it here.

Wrong! She suddenly reacted, this is not just a big case, she is still a suspect. We have to solve this case quickly, and it will be considered a credit at that time, and there will be a case when we evaluate it next year.

"The county government, the county government, where is it?" Zhuang Rou thought that the Jingmen Mansion was in a conspicuous place, and this Douhu County Yamen would definitely be on this street, as long as he walked along. But after walking around, I only saw a dilapidated house in the middle of a dazzling array of shops, but I didn't find where the county government was.

She stopped, got off the horse and blocked a passer-by and asked, "Excuse me, where is the county government of Douhu County?" ”

The man didn't even look at her, and stretched out his hand to point to the side of the road, "No, it's here, if there's a lawsuit, go in by yourself, the drum has broken and you don't have to beat." ”

"What?" Zhuang Rou looked at the county government on the side of the road dumbfounded, it was the dilapidated house she had passed by twice before, it was dilapidated and rotten, as if it had been abandoned. This Douhu County is full of gorgeousness and luxury, but the yamen has rotted like this.

Moreover, the plaque of these words in Douhu County is full of thick ash, covered with spider webs, and I can't even read the words clearly. There was also a lot of grass growing in the cracks of the stone steps at the door, and the shouting drum that should have been placed on the side didn't even see a shadow, even the empty shelf.

There was no half of the officials at the door, half of the door was closed, and the other half she thought was open, but she looked and found that there was no at all, and the county government even had half a door missing.

She stood at the door in a daze, the little county king and his party also came, the carriage stopped at the gate, Chu Xia stepped on the small bench and got down, glanced around and said dissatisfiedly: "Xiao Ran, we are going to the county government, what are you taking me to Xiangmanlou for, it's not a meal yet." ”

Just across the street there is a gorgeous restaurant, although it is not a meal yet, but it is also a lively place where people come and go.

Xiao Ran arched his hand and said, "My lord, the county government is here." ”

"What? I've never been to this street! Chu Xia looked left and right for a long time, but he didn't see where there was a county office, but why hasn't this abandoned old mansion been sold yet?

Zhuang Rou couldn't stand it anymore, pointed to the dilapidated house and said, "My lord, this is the Douhu County Ya, your office." ”

Chu Xia paused for a moment, and then carefully looked at the dilapidated mansion that he often passed by, but had never seen it with his eyes. I squinted at the plaque for a long time before I recognized the big words written on it.

"Hey, hey, hey......" Chu Xia raised his forehead and laughed, and everyone looked at him, not understanding what was so ridiculous about this. When he had laughed enough, he turned around and walked towards the carriage, "Go, go back, this case is not tried." Pull the body back to the Jingmen Mansion, and say that this king has important matters and is not available, so let Chen Qingfeng continue the trial. ”

Xiao Ran, the captain of the guard, didn't even persuade him, so he immediately clasped his hands and said, "Yes." ”

The other guard, having lifted the curtain, was about to listen to him and leave.

"What are you going to do?" Zhuang Rou returned it as soon as she saw it, rushed up with an arrow step, and stretched out her hand to tear him off with the collar. Before his hand touched Chu Xia, a fist rushed in front of her and hit her hard in the face.

She fell backwards, the fist grazed the tip of her nose, and her waist twisted to the side with force, and the whole person jumped out from under the fist, and immediately shouted: "What are you doing!" ”

Blocking her was another guard, who had been grimacing since his appearance, as if someone owed him millions of taels of silver. Now that he is making a move, his face is full of killing intent, and he looks like he wants to put people to death.

Chu Xia turned his head, thought about it for a while, and then smiled: "If you can win against my guards, I will stay and try your case in this shabby place." But if you want to lose, you have to listen to me in everything, so that if you go east, you can't go west, so be a good girl for me. ”

Zhuang Rou didn't speak, just stared at him, and scolded him dozens of times in her heart.

"Shi Zang, be merciful to your subordinates, don't beat people to death." Chu Xia sat in the carriage and said with a good show.

Shi Zang didn't say a word, his palm turned from a fist to a claw, and he attacked Zhuang Rou. There was no mercy in his eyes, and his claws came straight to his neck with a strong wind.

Seeing him rushing over with murderous intent, the corners of Lin Fei's eyes twitched, and a person came to mind in his mind, legend has it that there are four guards sent by the emperor by the side of the little county king, and one of them is the most ruthless. If that person made a move, few people could stand and go back, just to teach a girl who didn't understand the rules, and he actually sent this person, and the heart of the little county king was too ruthless.

Chu Xia didn't have anything to do, sitting in the carriage and looking at it with a smile, but there was no emotion in his eyes, the person who was going to be beaten by the guards was either dead or injured, and he was like an ant to him. In the blink of an eye, you can wipe it out.

Whether it is a fierce bandit or an unarmed woman or a child, Shi Zang will not show mercy, this is the meaning of his existence.

That sharp claw can easily crush a person's neck, especially Zhuang Rou's rich and softer neck.

At this moment, he saw Zhuang Rou suddenly show a happy smile, and his claws slid away from the other party's neck. A small palm appeared in front of his face, grabbed it fiercely, and slammed his head on the ground.

The back of his head was smashed to the ground, causing him to lose his breath, and he immediately came back to his senses and found that Zhuang Rou had straddled him, his legs pressing his hand. Holding his head with both hands, he smashed the ground as if he was holding a rock to smash the walnuts on the ground.

The sound of impact kept coming, and the ground shook slightly, Zhuang Rou was like crazy, grabbing Shi Zang's head and smashing it continuously, and the blood splashed red on the ground, like a persimmon that had been crushed by a carriage. The pedestrians on the street, who were still watching the bustle, were so frightened that they couldn't even scream, and could only watch the murder on the street with their eyes wide open.

Chu Xia raised his head, looked at Zhuang Rou in a daze, and suddenly showed a bright smile and praised: "It's amazing, I like it." ”
