Chapter 19: The Duel Trial
"Name of the accused?"
The judge, a middle-aged woman, in her forties, with a thin face without a smile at all, as if the 10,000 people present owed her an overnight fee, and asked the blind man sitting in the dock sleeping soundly.
The blind man did not answer, but continued to snore, sleeping so soundly.
There was a burst of laughter in the audience, and the little villain laughed the loudest, attracting a burst of attention, and a group of children crowded over to watch when they saw that a little unicorn could laugh.
A bold boy grabbed the little villain by the tail with his hand, and the little bad guy roared and scared the child into tears.
Zhou Tian blocked the outside and did not let the children get close to the little villain.
Doudou rode on the body of the little villain, shook his little feet gracefully, and whispered to Zhang Jingmei, who was covered with black veils next to him: "When will you do it?" ”
"Wait a minute, we'll see."
Zhang Jingmei did not have Zhou Tian's order, so she would not make a move, although she would not admit it.
"That old man, how come I can't tell if he's a mortal or a child of the sea?"
The little villain muttered, Zhou Tian listened, and his heart was glorified.
The first time he saw the old blind man that day, Zhou Tian stared at him calmly, and didn't find anything abnormal in him, his body was ordinary like an ordinary person, could it be that he met a master who could hide his breath, and there would be an answer in a while.
"Wake up!"
A bailiff dressed in red shook the old blind man for more than ten times before the old blind man woke up and asked in a daze:
"It's over, how are you going to kill me?
Is it to the meal, I heard that I can eat something good today, can I have a cup of Lao Baigan. ”
The audience burst into laughter, and the little villain stamped his hooves with laughter.
"Don't talk nonsense, do you know what this place is?"
The female judge's face was flushed, and she picked up the hammer and struck it hard, and the laughter in the audience subsided.
She turned to the plaintiff's bench and asked:
"Plaintiff, your name?"
"I am Li Shoudao, Zhang Jingtian's lawyer, and I accuse the defendant Ma Yun of using witchcraft to kill Zhang Jingtian's youngest daughter Zhang Feiyuan the night before."
A chubby man stood up and read the text of his speech that he had prepared.
"What evidence do you have?"
The woman judge asked questions in accordance with the procedure.
"I have a doctor's certificate and three witnesses."
The fat lawyer held a medical appraisal aloft and continued: "This is a medical appraisal issued by the most authoritative local Hanmei Hospital, which proves that Zhang Feiyuan died of witchcraft. ”
Three uniformed soldiers stood up, and the fat lawyer pointed at them and said, "These three witnesses saw the old blind man pretending to be a ghost and performing witchcraft near the destroyer Clan at different times yesterday. ”
"Okay, tell me what you saw?"
After the medical evaluation, the female judge began to listen to the testimony of witnesses.
The three soldiers were much the same, and they all said that they saw the old blind man doing something near the mooring of the Tribal last night, and Zhang Feiyuan died that night.
After listening to the testimony, the female judge frowned and looked at the old blind man with his head hanging and not very energetic.
"Defendant Ma Yun, do you have anything to say?"
"Since I am said to be a witchcraft murderer, then ask God's will! I ask for a duel trial. ”
The old blind man did not argue, and suddenly spoke loudly about the duel review, and the audience let out a burst of cheers.
Duel trials are dedicated to dealing with mysterious cases, such as those between the Children of the Sea.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the children of the sea are the embodiment of God, and only God can decide whether they are right or wrong.
In fact, the children of the sea are too powerful to be judged by ordinary people, so they have to let them duel, and the winner is king.
"Good!" After discussion, the plaintiff's lawyer agreed, and the duel trial began immediately.
Both the original defendant and the defendant can ask someone else to duel on their behalf, and the person who killed the other party is not guilty and wins the lawsuit.
If you lose, you will be punished by the law.
"My name is Sun Jingxian, and I am willing to fight a duel with Ma Yun instead of Lord Zhang Jingtian."
A two-meter-tall giant walked out of the crowd and saw two black battle axes pinned to his waist. In duel trials, firearms are not allowed to be used to avoid injuring others, but there are no restrictions on cold weapons.
"Which warrior is willing to duel for the old blind man?"
The old blind man slowly stood up from the dock, his eyes closed and his head trembling and he asked the audience.
The audience was silent, many of them sympathized with the old blind man, but they were not strong enough, they were not children of the sea, and they could only be sent to death if they went to their bodies.
Several sons of the sea stood in the crowd, they had long been bought by Zhang Jingtian as subordinates, and they all helped Zhang Jingtian openly and secretly, so of course they would not help the old blind man fight a duel at this time.
"Me!"
Xiao Doudou pulled out the sword on his waist and was about to rush forward, but was hugged by Zhou Tian.
"Leave it alone, let's see."
Zhou Tian hugged Xiao Doudou, he had his own plans in his heart, Xiao Doudou looked at the old blind man worriedly, and he was really afraid that Sun Jingxian would split him in half with an axe.
"Thank you!"
The old blind man looked gratefully in the direction of Doudou, heard Doudou's voice, and didn't expect that the little girl who had only one side of the relationship would have to duel for herself.
The old blind man Ma Yun removed his shackles, and he was led to the duel clearing, holding the cyan wayfinding bamboo pole:
"Since there is no one to replace the old blind man, the old blind man has to come by himself, this must be an opponent, I feel that you are so tall, please take care of yourself."
The old blind man bowed deeply to the flagpole of the big ship in the center, and the audience burst into laughter, some of them burst into tears.
Sun Jingxian crossed his arms around his chest and watched the old blind man stumble, holding bamboo poles in his hands and stabbing around.
The old blind man stabbed and asked, "Where is the person who wants to duel with the old man, and if he doesn't show up, can't he run away?" ”
Sun Jingxian frowned, he didn't think that this old blind man was just a mortal, and he didn't know why the high-ranking and powerful Lord Zhang wanted his life.
If you want to say that this old blind man is a peerless master, yesterday he was lightly caught by more than a dozen ordinary soldiers.
He seemed to be stabbing the old blind man from place to place, getting farther and farther away from him, angry and happy.
I really want to go up and hack him to death with an axe, and hack a blind man to death in front of everyone, even if it is an order from Master Zhang, isn't this a discredit for my reputation in this life.
Sun Jingxian put down his hand and walked a few steps towards the old blind man, and suddenly he noticed something unusual.
The figure of the old blind man became more and more vague and erratic, and then gradually turned into a chaotic streamer of light, scurrying in the clearing.
The smiles on everyone's faces were like wooden chickens, the air froze, time stopped, no one was breathing, only one heart after another was beating vigorously.
It turned out that the old blind man was a master of the world, not an old man who was weak on the surface, and people were surprised, looking at the streamer that kept beating up and down, left and right, people began to worry about Sun Jingxian, the seventh-level ocean prince.
"Spin the axe!"
Sun Jingxian's whole body was closed with red light, and he activated the seventh-level skill.
He threw the two axes in the air, and the two black axes spun like wheels, humming and flashing with blinding light, drawing a wonderful arc in the air, cutting into the black streamer.
