When I returned to the inn, the sky had already opened, and the entire city was covered with a layer of golden light under the morning glow.

Yan Xi stepped on the light and returned.

Xiao Er opened the door and saw Yan Xi walking back, and opened his mouth with a little concern.

"Girl, are you back?"

Yan Xi nodded modestly and walked towards the inn.

Although he knew that this matter was not so simple, the moment he opened the door, he was still startled.

Except for one floor in the house, it is still good, and the rest of the place is basically unsightly.

The room was a mess, with flesh and blood flying and a thick rancid stench.

Lian Hua sat on a rotten chair that he had picked up out of nowhere, fanning himself desperately with his sleeves, trying to cool himself down.

Yun Zhu held his hands like a tree, and his face was a rare tiredness.

Seeing that it was Yan Xi who came, he waved his hand to accept his Ruomu.

"I said, God, why are you here now?" Lian Hua complained as he fanned the wind, "If you come late, you can clean up for us." ”

"The same cannot be said. Yan Xi walked in the door, carefully avoiding the blood on the ground. "I'm not here to investigate the case, that's why I'm late. Besides, I've already asked Yun Zhu to come back to help you first. Why, the two leaders of the fairy world can't fight a few minions in the ghost world?"

"A few minions? Yan Xi is really up to it. Tens of thousands of ghosts gathered around the inn, opening their mouths wide, just to suck the immortal qi of the true monarch. Ben Zhenjun not only wants to cast spells to protect the people in the inn from being dragged out and eaten by those little ghosts, but also has to compete with the big names in the ghost world, which is really lacking in skills. ”

"If it weren't for Yun Zhu Shangxian arriving in time, it is estimated that your little servant and I would have become the first immortal to be devoured by ten thousand ghosts in thousands of years. ”

Yan Xi chuckled, "In this way, Lian Hua Zhenjun has really suffered a lot of grievances. ”

"Of course. ”

Yun Zhu didn't want to listen to Lian Hua's nonsense anymore, and said to Yan Xi. "What's the news?"

Yan Xi, "Well, I found something unknown. ”

Lian Hua got up and performed a spell to clean the blood stains on his clothes.

"Today is the day when the county magistrate stipulates the confrontation, but I don't know if the county magistrate, who lost face yesterday, dares to appear? If this gentleman were him, he would find a place to hide and never see anyone again. ”

However, Lian Hua obviously underestimated the county master's face.

At the entrance of the county office, the masses gathered, and the door was like a city.

Mu Ci was escorted to the court, and Wu Qing stood aside with a haggard face.

The county lord didn't seem to be affected by yesterday's events, so what should he do. Just looked at Yan Xi with the anger of killing.

"The three-day deadline has arrived. Folk girl Yan Xi, have you found out the truth of the matter?"

"Thank you for the time, the folk girl has already found the murderer. ”

Yan Xi's words fell, and there was a lot of turmoil next to the voice.

"Oh?" the county magistrate raised his voice slightly, looking at Yan Xi. "Who's the murderer?"

"It's her. ”

Yan Xi pointed his finger at Mu Ci, who was kneeling on the ground, and spoke mercilessly.

"She?" The county magistrate stared at Yan Xi deadly, as if to confirm the truth of his words. "This is what you call a murderer. Do you know how much energy you have wasted on the county order? Deceiving the imperial court officials will be spared from living crimes, but capital crimes will not be escaped. Someone! Give me this woman who doesn't know the height of the sky and the height of the earth to be beaten 80 boards and exiled to the Western Wilderness. ”

"Wait. Yan Xi stopped the two servants who wanted to tie her up. "I'm not done yet. Why, the county lord is impatient to want my life?"

"What else can you say?!"

"The murderer Yan Xi refers to is what Miss Mu wants, but ...... Everyone should hear why she did this. ”

The county order, "Killing is killing, what is there to explain?!"

"If Miss Mu Porcelain did this to save the lives of all the people in Wencheng, is this reason enough to explain?"

In a word, Lian Hua, who was standing aside and listening, couldn't help but be confused.

Not to mention the people standing on the sidelines, the earth-shattering thunderbolt was like a *, which instantly ignited everyone.

When Mu Ci heard this, he was angry, and his eyes stared at Yan Xi viciously. It seems that he is going to devour his life alive.

"What nonsense are you talking about?!"

"Nonsense?" Yan Xi sighed lightly, "Miss Mu, why do you have to be like this." In fact...... Wu Gongzi's parents have long been suffering from cannibalism. That day, I went to Wu Mansion to inspect their corpses, and found traces of evil mouths on the corpses. Although you have covered up the marks with drugs, the drugs have time. Once the time has passed, it is difficult to hide. ”

"The two old men in Wu Mansion are philanthropic people, and they help people more on weekdays. When they know that they have a cannibalistic plague, which has no cure and is highly contagious. For the sake of everyone, he still made a decision and chose to commit suicide by taking poison. By the time you find out, the two old men have already gone. And in order to save their reputation from being damaged, you panicked and claimed that you killed them. ”

"Seeing your future parents-in-law die in front of your eyes, your heart is tormented more than anyone else. But you can't help it, as a doctor, you have to think about other innocent people. ”

After hearing this, Wu Qing couldn't control himself anymore.

knelt down and held Mu Ci's shoulders with both hands.

"Is this true? Mu Ci, tell me, Dad, how could my mother suddenly suffer from a cannibal plague?"

Yan Xi, "Wu Gongzi, if my guess is correct. Wu Lao Wu's mother had been out of the city before she fell ill, and perhaps the epidemic was contracted at that time. ”

"Out of the city?" Wu Qing fell into a frantic memory. "Yes, my father and mother said that they would go out of the city to prepare things for my wedding. Don't...... It's this time. ”

A tear fell from the corner of Mu Ci's eye, fell to the ground, and disappeared. The disguised anger, strong, instantly turned invisible.

"Why do you want to say it?" a sentence of endless desolation.

"Miss Mu...... Sometimes the so-called goodwill depends on whether they are willing to accept it. If I don't say it, everyone present may become the murderer. They will be charged with murder for the rest of their lives. ”

"Why? Why don't you say no. Why do you have to bear the charge of murder, why do you want me to watch you die?" Wu Qing asked uncontrollably.

"Why?" Mu Ci pushed Wu Qing away, his face desperate. "Because we'll never be together, of course. ”

Yan Xi continued, "The reason why Miss Mu has been avoiding everyone and is unwilling to tell Wu Gongzi the truth is that she wants him to kill you with her own hands. One reason is that she felt that she didn't save Wu Lao Wu's mother, so that you lost your relatives and had no shame to see you. Another reason is because she also has cannibalism. ”

"What......" Wu Qing heard Yan Xi's words and suddenly fell to the ground. "How so?"

At this time, the public hall was silent, and no one spoke first.

Mu Ci smiled bitterly twice and turned his head to look at Yan Xi.

"How did the girl tell I was sick?"

Yan Xi knows the cruelty of the truth, but sometimes he hides the truth and hides in the dark. It doesn't solve the problem, it just makes everything rotten and smelly.

"Miss Mu has always hidden it very well, not speaking, not denying, only acquiescing in her guilt. Imagine that a person must always have a motive for killing, killing people to take money, killing people to intercede. In short, bad people have bad people's style of doing things, and Miss Mu ......" Yan Xi's voice was slightly deep, with infinite compassion in it. "A healer who saves lives and helps the wounded, a person who cares about everyone, how can he be the one who robs wealth and kills?"
