Zhou Zheng asked Yang Shan to do three things.

One is to investigate Han Liuzi's relationship circle, especially the people who are like-minded and frequent with him in drug production, which is the focus of the investigation.

The other is to investigate the entire Luqi Town to see who is the master in the use of poisonous insects?

The last thing is about Hu Yi. According to the classification of the borer's habitat, Zhou Zheng found that one of them was in a barren area. And, Hu Yi's most powerful henchman, the leopard spirit, was exiled to a barren land.

Zhou Zheng doesn't think it's a coincidence.

Therefore, he asked Yang Shan to personally investigate, who of Hu Yi's subordinates had ever been to a barren land? Furthermore, it is important to check whether there are any people who have been released back to Luqi Town from the barren land in the near future.

After that, he took a servant to visit the Tushan patriarch of the nine-tailed fox family.

The old patriarch's name is Tu Shanmeng, and his eldest son, who is Zhou Yue's father-in-law, is called Tu Shanxi (he) who has just taken over the position of new patriarch.

The father and son greeted each other at the gate, and the other greeted each other in the front hall, receiving Zhou Zheng with a very high courtesy, giving the law and punishment department enough face!

The three of them sat down separately, and after the tea, Zhou Zheng was not polite and asked each other bluntly.

"Old patriarch, Tushan patriarch, I came this time, mainly for Zhou Yue's case. According to what we know now, Zhou Yue did not die of natural causes, but was killed by someone! ”

Although this situation had been expected by the two of them, they were still shocked to hear the confirmed news.

"Don't hide it from the true monarch, although the son-in-law has no great ability, but he is kind and kind, and there will never be an enemy! If he was really killed, it could only be the enemy of our family! ”

"Who are the enemies of our family?"

"This..."Tu Shanxi hesitated.

"Xi'er, you don't have to hide it from Zhenjun. We have to give Shan'er an explanation! You can't let Zhou Yue die in vain! ”

"Yes! Father. With the old patriarch's words, Tu Shanxi no longer worried.

"Zhenjun, as a big family, it is inevitable that you will bump into outsiders, and it is not surprising that there are some enemies. It's just that there are almost no people who have deep hatred. To say, there are two people who hate our Tu Shan clan more and want to trouble us at every turn. One is Hu Yi. He felt that it was the fault of our Tu Shan clan that he was punished and his henchmen were exiled. In fact, he is the heart of a villain! That incident has nothing to do with our Tu Shan clan. We just speak out and want to be impartial. ”

"Speaking of that, you helped Tsubaki and them, they should be quite close to you, right?"

Tu Shanxi smiled bitterly, "No! To tell the truth, our demon clan can't look down on those tree spirits and stone monsters in our bones. That time, we stood on the side of the big tsubaki tree, and we also talked about the facts. Later, the spirits offered us to join them, but we refused. ”

The old patriarch couldn't help but answer, "The so-called three forces, those spirits have the largest number of people, even more than us and Hu Yi combined, but why don't you dare to disturb our two families?" Can only occupy a small piece of territory? To put it bluntly, they are a rabble! It's okay to talk about it usually, but if you really encounter something, it's vulnerable! ”

Tu Shanmeng did not shy away from it, and his words revealed a strong disdain for the big Chunshu side.

"Yes! Father was right! We have passed it down for generations, and our ancestors have all asked us to keep ourselves clean. Therefore, we can't have any intimate contact with them. In fact, seventy percent of our business is still cooperating with Hu Yi and them. After that incident, although there was a gap between the two sides, the business was not greatly affected. Therefore, my father and I both think that Hu Yi just has some opinions about our Tu Shan clan. Over time, sooner or later, this matter will be resolved. However, I didn't expect Hu Yi to take revenge in this way! Tu Shanxi was very angry.

"How can you be sure that Hu Yi did this?"

"Who else is not him? In Luqi Town, apart from him, who has the courage to touch the people of our Tu Shan family? ”

Zhou Zheng couldn't refute this for the time being. He then asked.

"Patriarch Tushan, didn't you say that there is still an enemy? Could it be the enemy who did it? ”

Tu Shanxi shook his head first, "Impossible! Let's not talk about the family that disdains this kind of petty behavior. Even if it's a grudge between us, I don't think it's to the point of vendetta! ”

Tu Shanxi's remark aroused Zhou Zheng's great interest. Under his repeated questioning, Tu Shanxi reluctantly reluctantly spoke.

It turned out that Tu Shanxi's wife, that is, Zhou Yue's mother-in-law, was also a human race. However, unlike Zhou Yue, Zhou Yue is a veritable mortal, while his mother-in-law is a person who has cultivated to a high level of immortality.

The daughter was able to marry the mortal Zhou Yue, and it all depended on his mother-in-law's strength.

The cause of the incident was Tu Shanxi's wife, Feng Zhixuan.

Back then, when Tu Shanxi met Feng Zhixuan, he fell in love with her at first sight. Ignoring the opposition of his family, he began to pursue frantically.

And, at that time, Feng Zhixuan still had a suitor, no matter his cultivation, appearance, and identity, he was not a grade higher than Tu Shanxi.

That person's name is Lin Shu, and he is the younger brother of the current demon lord of Luqi Town.

Later, Tu Shanxi also tried his best to impress Feng Zhixuan with a sincere heart, so that she finally chose to marry her.

However, Lin Shu was unwilling, and he was so angry that he ignored the heavy punishment of cannibalism and insisted on killing Tu Shanxi!

Originally, Tu Shanxi was not the opponent of Linshu, and he was beaten to the ground. Later, Feng Zhixuan, who got the news, arrived in time and joined forces with Tu Shanxi to resist the attack of Linshu.

This made Lin Shu even more angry, and he immediately lost his mind, and he wanted to die with Tu Shanxi.

It was in that fight that Lin Shu used forbidden arts, although he injured Tu Shanxi and made him lie on the bed for half a year, but at the same time, he also killed thousands of mortals by mistake.

For such a heinous crime, the Department of Law and Punishment naturally would not punish him lightly, not only abolished the cultivation of Linshu, but also exiled him to a bitter cold land, where he could not return for the rest of his life. Later, I heard that Lin Shu was completely insane and died after not staying in the bitter cold land for a few years.

It was this incident that the Tu Shan clan and Lin Yuan had a grudge.

However, Lin Yuan's personality is decent and impartial. Although, he never interacted with Tu Shan's in private, and even gave them a good face every time they met. However, he never bends the law for personal gain in official affairs, and will not deliberately wear Tu Shan's small shoes.

Such a character is deeply admired even by the Tushan family!

Therefore, Tu Shanmeng's father and son are sure that the murderer cannot be Lin Yuan!

You must know that Lin Yuan is equivalent to the cultivation of the fifth layer of the immortal rank, and it is too easy for him to kill a mortal quietly! As long as there is a trace of majesty, two streets away, people will die violently!

This is Luqi Town, the gathering place of the demon clan! Who let a mortal dwell here for a long time? And as the demon master, he can completely pretend that it is his unintentional act, and he doesn't have to bear any responsibility at all!

Therefore, Zhou Zheng also agreed that it was unlikely that Lin Yuan would kill Zhou Yue.

After a detailed discussion with Tu Shanxi's father and son, Zhou Zheng's final suspicion was once again locked on Hu Yi!

And the information that was fed back afterwards also confirmed his suspicions even more!

Hu Yi cares about brotherhood, when the leopard spirit was exiled, he sent three of his subordinates to accompany him all the way. The three men had not returned from exile until seven or eight days ago.

Zhou Zheng thought about it for a while and ordered Yang Shan to secretly arrest the three people, but he only said to the outside world that he would ask them to assist in the investigation.

Yang Shan didn't take it too seriously, this kind of arrest was a piece of cake for him.

However, what he didn't expect was that things deteriorated extremely later, and the bad thing was in this arrest!

There are three people, one is a black bear monster, one is a gray wolf demon, and the other is the same kind as the leopard spirit, a female leopard.

Yang Shan assigned three groups of people to work together with the three of them.

When capturing the Black Bear Monster, the Punishment Division's men were violently resisted, and three people were killed by the Black Bear Monster on the spot. The errand officer was also red-eyed in an instant, and after paying a heavy price, he killed the black bear monster on the spot.

The gray wolf demon met Yang Shan, and he was tied up by Wuhua in a few rounds. Seeing that he couldn't escape, the gray wolf demon chose to explode and die without hesitation.

However, the leopard spirit has the strongest sense of prevention, and the silent and airtight round-up of the people finally pounced and she escaped in advance.

The movements of these three round-ups were too noisy, and Hu Yi got the news as soon as possible. He immediately summoned all his subordinates, and the government of the Law and Punishment Division in Luqi Town was impassable, and the crowd angrily asked Zhou Zheng to come out and give an explanation.

Yang Shan, who knew that he had done things badly, knelt in front of Zhou Zheng with his hands tied and begged for justice.

Zhou Zheng helped him up and untied the rope with his own hands.

"It's not your fault! This is enough to show that these three people have ghosts in their hearts! ”

"Zhenjun, you hand me over, I Yang Shan do things alone! I'll go with Hu Yi, admit the killing, and give him an explanation! ”

"! Who do we need to give an account of? We are only responsible for the rules and regulations! Walk! Come out with me! ”

Facing the crowd of black pressure, Yang Shan tightly protected Zhou Zheng behind him.

"Hu Yi, I killed the person, something is coming at me! Are you not afraid of violating the rules of heaven by leading people to besiege the Department of Law and Punishment like this? Yang Shan shouted sternly at Hu Yisheng.

"The Department of Punishment is so majestic! Kill the people of our demon clan without any evidence, you don't violate the rules of heaven? Our demon clan came to ask for an explanation, and it was a violation of heaven? Tell us, what kind of heavenly rule have we committed? ”

Yang Shan was speechless for a while.

Zhou Zheng knew that at this time, he couldn't get used to Hu Yi's arrogance, otherwise, if everyone rushed up, the consequences would be even worse!

"Murder of the Immortal Book of Punishment Division Zhenjun, capital crime! Extermination! No mercy! ”

Zhou Zheng's voice was not loud, but it was enough for everyone present to hear it. The commotion instantly became silent.

"Is there such an unreasonableness? You say murder is murder? ”

Hu Yi looked angry, he looked down on the young Zhou Zheng a little. He thinks that this little guy is just babbling a few words, if he really starts to move, maybe he will be scared of fart?

Zhou Zheng smiled slightly, "That's right!" I said yes and yes! Besides, you're a real murderer! ”

As soon as Zhou Zheng's words fell, he saw the steel knife in the hand of an entourage beside Hu Yi flying towards Zhou Zheng with the tip of the knife in front.

Yang Shan took a quick step and swung his sword to slash down the flying steel knife.

"Be bold, you dare to commit murder in public and assassinate the true monarch! Come on, take it for me! ”

Hu Yi looked at his entourage in disbelief. The entourage was so frightened that he couldn't say anything, "It's not me, I don't, the knife itself, fly." ”

Without waiting for the entourage to finish speaking, Zhou Zheng raised his finger, and the man quickly flew into the air, and in the midst of repeated screams, he fell to the ground and smashed into a puddle of blood.

This most intuitive shock and deterrence frightened everyone, and no one dared to take half a step again.

Hu Yi was also so frightened that his heart was beating wildly, and his legs were shaking. He knew that this must be Zhou Zheng's ghost, but now, he was so scared that he couldn't say a word.

Hu Yi originally relied on the fact that this was the territory of the demon clan, and with the demon lord Lin Yuan in charge, Zhou Zheng did not dare to mess around even if he was the identity of a true monarch.

However, he didn't expect Zhou Zheng to be serious. I didn't expect that Zhou Zheng's methods were ruthless and decisive!

Today, if he dares to mess around, he has no doubt that Zhou Zheng really dares to kill him on the spot!

Assassinate the true monarch and exterminate the clan! He couldn't afford it!

Originally, he didn't plan to really do anything to Zhou Zheng. It's just that he died two brothers for no reason, and if he didn't react at all, he wouldn't be able to explain to his brothers!

However, now, it is difficult for him to ride a tiger!

"Hu Yi! Are you guilty? Yang Shan's thunderous scolding suddenly sounded in his ears, and he fell to the ground with weak legs.

"Inspector Yang, Zhenjun, misunderstanding! This kid," he shouted, pointing to his henchman, who had already crumbled into a puddle of flesh, "this kid is a spy sent by the demons!" Yes, he's a spy! It is to provoke the demon clan and the law and punishment department as enemies, and its heart is vicious! Zhenjun is wise, and he saw through his sinister intentions at a glance, so he didn't let us fall for him! Thank you, Zhenjun! It was you who saved the demon clan, and you will be the great benefactor of our demon clan in the future! ”

After speaking, he took the lead and bowed to Zhou Zheng.

The men brought by Hu Yi were blinded for a while. What's the situation? Xiao Wu is a spy? The spy of the demon clan? God, no wonder he was mysterious all day long, it turned out to be a spy! Did this true monarch see through it? That's amazing! What are you doing in a daze, kowtow!

Looking at the crowd of people kneeling down in Wuyangyang, even Zhou Zheng had to admire Hu Yi's flexible brain. In such a short period of time, this kid can find such a good rhetoric! not only escaped the crime of extermination, but also slapped Zhou Zheng's ass fiercely. At the same time, it effectively saved Hu Yi's position in the hearts of his brothers.

This man, looking at the five big and three coarse, is careful and lively, and in the future, he will be a master of great things.

Zhou Zheng did not expose it, and went down the steps.

"Hu Yi Holy Monarch, by all means! Hurry up, please! Rise up, all of you. We are a family, regardless of each other, it is our business to deal with the demons together! Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, let's go back to each other. Hu Yi Shengjun, please also talk about it in the house. ”

"Nature, nature! Go back, and I'll talk to you! It's all gone! ”

Hu Yi pretended to be familiar with the road and an old acquaintance, and swaggered into the mansion. After waiting inside, he immediately groveled, a submissive posture.

"Sit. Hu Yi Holy Monarch..."

Hu Yi was so frightened that he got up from his chair again, "Zhenjun, don't, don't, you tortured the villain like this." You can just call me Xiaohu. ”

Zhou Zheng shook his head helplessly, thinking, this guy won't be a soft egg, right? He likes people who can bend and stretch, but he hates the cowardice of the wall grass very much.

"Hu Yi," Zhou Zheng called his name directly, "I asked you to come to see something." Have you ever seen this? ”

Yang Shan brought a few black stone-like things from the tray, and took out one to look at carefully.

"Obsidian! Oh my God, it's obsidian! ”

"What is this for?"

Hu Yi calmed down his excitement before slowly speaking.

"Obsidian, quite precious. It has many uses, mainly as the main material for making immortal ranks and even immortal magic weapons.

It also has one of the biggest functions, which is to assist in cultivation. If you are a monk with a firm Dao heart and is not afraid of demons, if you use obsidian to cultivate, you can get twice the result with half the effort, and if you can form a spiritual array with obsidian, then the cultivation speed can be thousands of miles a day. Just like this small obsidian in my hand, the energy in it is equivalent to half the spiritual power of a small spiritual vein. ”

"So powerful? Isn't it worth a lot of money? ”

"That's priceless! It's not an exaggeration to exchange a city in Luqi Town for such a small one. ”

"What else can it do?"

Hu Yi pondered for a long time, "I once heard the sixth child mention to me that obsidian can also be used in medicine. ”

"Poison?"

"Yes, and it's a very special poison that can poison thousands of people in an instant."

"Yang Shan, go and invite Mr. Han."

Hu Yi hurriedly stopped, "He will never say." That time, he drank too much and inadvertently mentioned it to me. When I asked him again, he only said that it hurt heaven and earth, and heaven and earth would not tolerate it! The next day, when he woke up, I asked him about it again, but he didn't admit anything, saying that he didn't know anything about obsidian, and that it was impossible to use obsidian in medicine! ”

Zhou Zheng fell into deep thought. Han Liuzi said that it hurt Tianhe, indicating that he knew that obsidian could be made into poison. However, he was secretive about this matter, and he was unwilling to tell the truth in front of Hu Yi, whom he trusted so much.

This shows that the stakes are high! Or, the man he had seen before who used obsidian as a poison, and that person, he didn't dare to offend!

Who could that person be?

Zhou Zheng knew Han Liuzi, and he knew that once Han Liuzi was unwilling to say anything, even if he killed him, he would want to take out a little information from his mouth!
