Chapter 40: Sword Casting (6)

A middle-aged woman who had just walked into Suiyuan Lane happened to witness this scene, and her face suddenly changed drastically, and she exclaimed loudly: "Murder! Murder!"

The woman rushed out of Suiyuan Alley, still shouting like this, which immediately attracted the attention of many people.

"Auntie, don't shout, this is a misunderstanding!" Jiang Chen was in a hurry, but unfortunately he didn't have time to stop the woman.

Chen Ying's expression was calm, he leaned down, patted the old man's corpse, and then searched out an old book and a strange token from his arms, and handed them all to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen's mind was extremely chaotic, and after receiving the things handed over by Chen Ying, he didn't care about it, so he could only put it away.

Jun Zhu is a young lady of the family, where has she ever seen such a cruel and bloody fight, the hideous look of the old man when the blood on his chest sprayed wildly, has scared her half to death, and she is even more stunned at this time.

"Can't mess up, can't mess up!" Jiang Chen muttered to himself. Although he is also flustered now, he knows that time is precious and there are still many things to deal with!

Instead, it's a tatsukage that kills people, without fear, as if nothing has happened.

Jiang Chen exhaled deeply, forced himself to calm down, and thought about countermeasures.

Jiang Chen's first concern was Jiang Wu, who was unconscious, and he said to Jun Zhu: "Miss Jun Zhu, please help Jiang Wu to the room, stop the bleeding and bandage him, and use pills to recuperate! Jun Zhu, Jun Zhu!"

He shouted a few times in a row, and finally "woke up" Junzhu, who hurriedly stepped forward to help.

"Don't think about it too much, just take care of Jiang Wu! I'll take care of the rest!" Jiang Chen said.

After settling Jiang Wu in, the middle-aged woman had already led a number of people into Suiyuan Alley, including a catcher who happened to be passing by nearby, and a few residents who were watching the excitement.

"He killed someone!" the woman shrank behind the catcher, pointed at Tatsukage, and said, "I saw him kill with a knife!"

"Misunderstanding!" Jiang Chen hurriedly said: "It was this old Taoist who intended to kill my two brothers, and Chen Ying was just hurting others in self-defense." My brother was seriously injured by Lao Dao and is still healing!"

The arrest will be suspicious: "Whether it is murder or self-defense, if someone dies, it must be reported to the yamen." Hand over the murder weapon and come with me!"

Tatsukage held the black knife unmoved, and turned a deaf ear to the words of the catch. The arrester was afraid and did not dare to come forward to arrest him.

Quickly drew the knife and said to Chenying: "Hey, if you don't cooperate, the crime will be increased!"

Jiang Chen hurriedly explained: "He is mute, and he has a bit of a problem with his brain, don't misunderstand." ”

Saying that, Jiang Chen took the initiative to step forward and take the black knife from Chen Ying's hand and handed it to the catcher. Catch quickly and then take Tatsukage away, and Tatsukage did not resist.

Shopkeeper Hu was also in the crowd, and he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Brother Jiang, what the hell is going on? How did you get a human life?"

Jiang Chen sighed: "Our brother was unlucky and met a strongman. Fortunately, it was Chen Ying who made the move, otherwise my brothers would not have escaped today! Please go to Hefeng County as soon as possible, meet Li Xiucai, and tell him that I have something urgent. ”

"Okay, I'll go and prepare the horse!" the shopkeeper immediately agreed.

Jiang Chen's heart was slightly relieved, Li Xiucai was doing paperwork in the yamen, and it should be more convenient for Chen Ying's life lawsuit if he had a point in it!

After a while, the yamen sent a few more arresters to carry the old man's body away, and questioned Jiang Chen and other people present one by one, telling them that if the county magistrate was in need, he would summon them into the yamen at any time to report in person.

Li Xiucai rushed to Yunlan Town overnight, and after listening to Jiang Chen's story, he went to the yamen with him. However, the county yamen guard only let Li Xiucai in, but blocked Jiang Chen from the door.

Jiang Chen didn't sleep all night, worried about his younger brother Jiang Wu's injury, and worried about Chen Ying's life lawsuit.

Fortunately, in the second half of the night, Jiang Wu, who had taken a few elixirs, woke up, and Junzhu said that he was fine except for excessive blood loss. Jiang Wu was surprised and delighted when he heard that Chen Ying had killed his master. The brothers can be said to have lived for the rest of their lives, hugging each other and crying. was frightened too much, Junzhu didn't dare to go back to the hospital alone, and Aunt Li accompanied her for one night.

What they didn't expect was that early the next morning, Li Xiucai returned from the yamen and brought Chen Ying back!

Jiang Chen was overjoyed: "Brother Li is really a good skill! In just one night, he brought Chen Ying back safe and sound! Has this lawsuit been concluded?"

Li Xiucai smiled wryly: "The lawsuit is over, but it has nothing to do with Li! To tell the truth, Li really didn't make a contribution this time." ”

"What's going on?" Jiang Chen was surprised. Generally speaking, a life lawsuit is important, even if it is a self-defense killing, it must be strictly reviewed, and it is impossible to close the case without ten days and half a month, let alone release Chen Ying like this.

Li Xiucai whispered: "Something strange happened to the Yamen. That old corpse is gone!"

"What?" Jiang Chen was startled.

Jun Zhu's face turned even paleer when he heard this: "He can't be a corpse, right?"

Li Xiucai shook his head: "The county magistrate asked about the autopsy, and he is indeed dead." But the body was nowhere to be found. However, the body was lost in the life lawsuit, there was no physical evidence, the identity of the deceased was not known, and there was no way to file a case. Moreover, if this matter is reported, the county government of Yunlan Town will be responsible for dereliction of duty. Therefore, the county magistrate had a headache for one night, and decided to turn the big thing into a small one and a small matter, and directly closed the case. He also specially instructed Li to tell everyone not to mention this matter again. ”

"I see!" Jiang Chen's heart was relieved: "In this way, Chen Ying is fine!, but how could that old Taoist corpse disappear inexplicably?"

Li Xiucai asked: "Who is that old man? He can't be a demon, right? Is there any demon whose body will disappear after death?"

"Demons that disappear after death do exist!" Jiang Chen nodded: "However, that old way is ...... In short, he is not a demon, but also a cultivator!"

"Cultivators?" Li Xiucai frowned and said, "I heard Neizi say that the affairs of your cultivators are managed by the Dao Court. We mortal courts dare not even ask. In short, this matter is to be suppressed by the yamen, you might as well close the museum for a few days and rest for a few days, and then come out and walk around after the rumors have passed. ”

Jiang Chen nodded, and Li Xiucai sat down for a while before leaving. He came in a hurry, and the wife of the family was pregnant and needed someone to take care of him.

According to what Li Xiucai said, Jiang Chen closed the Chenwu Daoist Hall for a few days, and Junzhu's medical hall was not open. Jiang Wu rested in bed, and Chen Ying was also the same as in the past, guarding Jiang Chen all day long, like a shadow without any sense of existence.

As for the other onlookers or the people present, they have also received some invitations from the yamen in the past few days, inviting them to "drink tea and chat". After drinking tea, all the people kept silent about this matter.

After a few days, the rumors gradually faded. Half a month later, the Chenwu Gym reopened, and everything was as usual. Only the little green sword has become very different!
