Chapter 333: Spoils of War
"Three criminals, it's inconvenient for you to escort alone, why don't you hand over these two inner ghosts to us?"
After stepping off the spirit boat, the attitude of the head of the guard who had quarreled with Zhao Lin just now took a big turn, and he offered to help escort the black-faced monk and Huang Teng.
"Okay, then it's going to be a few hard work."
Zhao Lin knew that they wanted to share some credit, and they didn't refuse, and it was better to have locals to do things, and they could save a lot of trouble.
In fact, several guards took Zhao Lin into Qiuyang County, all the way unimpeded, and came directly to the patrol hall located on the main peak.
"I'm Zhao Mufeng, the hall master of the Qiuyang County Patrol Hall, and my surname is Daoyou?"
Qiuyang County is not big, there are only two peaks, and the grade of the spiritual vein is only a second-order lower grade, which is two grades lower than that of Hanchi County.
Therefore, there were only two Foundation Building Realm cultivators in the county, and the hall master of the Patrol Hall in front of him was only cultivating at the ninth level of Qi Refining.
"Go back to the hall master, don't be surnamed Zhao."
Zhao Lin saw that the other party had a kind attitude, and he did not despise him because of his low cultivation, so he replied politely.
"It turned out to be my family."
Hall Master Zhao showed a smile on his face, and glanced at Song Laosan, "You caught the bandit?" β
"Exactly."
Zhao Lin took out Li Daoyou's head, four used messengers, and a recorded confession from the lock bag.
Hall Master Zhao took the confession and glanced at it, slightly surprised, the evidence prepared by Zhao Lin was sufficient, and there was basically no possibility of overturning it.
Also, how is this confession written on the messenger?
He figured it out after a moment of thought, Zhao Lin probably had already sent the same confession to Shangyuan County, which was a move to leave a way back for himself, and at the same time, there was also an implicit threat.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at Zhao Lingao.
"My lord, I helped catch Heipi and Huang Teng, and I have a major meritorious service!"
Song Laosan suddenly struggled and shouted loudly.
Bandits still help arrest people?
Hall Master Zhao was stunned, and had the same doubts in his heart as others, Zhao Lin's cultivation was only at the third level of qi refining, even if it was a martial cultivation, it was a bit incredible to be able to do this.
"Zhao Daoyou, can you tell me how you caught them?"
"Good!"
Zhao Lin recounted the whole process again, and then looked at several guards accompanying the ship, "These people helped escort people over." β
"It's a gesture."
The head of the defense looked happy and hurriedly said modestly.
"Zhao Daoyou has the means!"
Hall Master Zhao stretched out his thumb and praised, "Please rest in the county first, I will bring someone for interrogation immediately, and I will notify you as soon as there is news." β
Zhao Lin didn't want to passively wait for the result, and said: "Master Zhao is polite, I am also one of the witnesses, can I listen to the trial on the sidelines?" If there is something unclear, I can also help to add. β
Hall Master Zhao thought about it right, so he called the relevant people and others to interrogate him directly in the hall.
There is no reason to doubt the guilt in the immortal cultivation world, and there are more interrogation methods than in the mortal world, and there are even spells specially used to torture and extract confessions.
In less than a cup of tea, the black-faced monk and Huang Teng confessed to colluding with the bandits, and confessed all in one go.
Song Laosan naturally had nothing to say, but repeatedly emphasized that he helped arrest people and had major meritorious performances.
The murderer subdued the law, and by the way, he found out the inner ghost, and Hall Master Zhao was also very happy, and took Zhao Lin's hand and said: "Thank you Zhao Daoyou, the five hundred spirit stones offered can be given to you now." β
Then he paused and said, "But the good deeds need to be reported to the state capital, and you catch the two inner ghosts, the good deeds need to be rechecked, and it will take some time." β
Zhao Lin knew that the process was like this, and nodded and said, "Yes, trouble Hall Master Zhao." β
"Don't bother, five hundred spirit stones, do you want spirit stones or spirit coins?"
"One hundred spirit stones, and the rest will be exchanged for spirit coins."
Zhao Lin originally had some spirit stones on his body, and he used up sixteen spirit stones to practice the trapping technique, and simply cultivated to the first level of proficiency, and the remaining spirit stones were enough to supplement spiritual power in the small world.
After a while, the guards brought the spirit stones and spirit coins over.
There is only one spiritual boat to and from Yinfeng Valley every day, and the hour has passed, and Zhao Lin can only rest in the pavilion post in the county.
In the dead of night, Zhao Lin counted the harvest of the past two days and found that before the task began, his early investment had all been repaid, and he had made a fortune.
In addition to the rewards of the bounty, he also obtained spirit stones, spiritual rice, elixirs, and talismans from the bandits.
There were not many things in the two inner ghost lock bags, and Zhao Lin also took the spirit stones and pills by the way, leaving only some spirit coins to fill the faΓ§ade.
After the inventory was completed, Zhao Lin took out forty-eight spirit stones, absorbed the aura in them, and cultivated the trapping technique from small to proficient.
This spell is really easy to use, and when you encounter a strong opponent, you can escape with this spell alone, and have one more means to save your life.
The only drawback is that the spells come from talismans, and at most they can only be cultivated to mastery.
If you want to further improve, you can only look for monks who have cultivated this spell to the fullest or even the fullest, and find a way to capture the relevant practice experience and experience with spiritual maps.
Looking at the spiritual diagram inward, Zhao Lin's eyes flashed with satisfaction.
Earth-Walking Rock Armor, Ice Blade, Fire-Walking Flame Arrow, Wind Trapping, and Non-Attribute Qi Vision.
All five spells have been cultivated to the mastery level, and they cover the four attributes of attack, defense, escape, and reconnaissance.
The Ice Knife Technique and the Flame Flow Arrow are from Miao Kefa, and they have the ability of the consummation level, as long as they cultivate to enter the middle stage of Qi refining, they can gather enough spirit stones.
In the past, I felt that a thousand spirit stones were out of reach, but now it seems that it is enough to exchange the two hundred good deeds of the bounty into spirit stones.
Sure enough, he responded to that sentence: horses have no night grass and no fertilizer, and people have no windfall and no wealth.
Among the trophies, there are also several high-grade talismans obtained from the bandits: the Hidden Talisman, the Wind Riding Talisman, and the Water Talisman.
He had already practiced the Trapping Technique, Zhao Lin was not interested in the Concealment Technique, just keep it for backup, and there was no need to practice, after all, the spiritual cultivation map only had nine grids.
The Wind Riding Technique is a flying spell, but the consumption of mana is extremely huge, and Zhao Lin's cultivation can't drive this spell at all.
If he really wants to fly, he has the ability to do it, but he flies more slowly.
Only the water resistance technique, Zhao Lin was a little tempted.
This spell can not only control the aura of the water line, so that the monk can walk freely in the water, but also has a certain defense ability against the water attack spell.
I don't have a good water spell yet, and there are many rivers, lakes and seas in the Xuanyuan Continent, so I may be able to use it in the future. But there's no hurry, as long as you have the talisman in hand, you can practice it at any time.
The next day, Zhao Lin left Qiuyang County and came to Zhouyi again.
Although he made a windfall, since he came here, there is no reason not to do tasks, at least to see it in the small world.
Zhao Lin walked to the Lingzhou and said to the monk in charge of receiving it, "May I ask how much is the Lingzhou that goes to Yinfeng Valley?" β
"Twenty spirit coins."
The monk cautiously replied that the news of Zhao Lin's capture of the bandit cultivator had spread all over the bazaar, and it was natural to be polite in the face of such a figure.
"Okay."
Zhao Lin handed over the spirit coin and stepped onto the spirit boat.
"Senior Brother Zhao, such a coincidence!"
As soon as Zhao Lin got on the boat, he heard a familiar voice and couldn't help but turn his head to look over.
