Chapter IV: Perpetrators of Body Theft

Hearing the word "retracted confession", Mo Shuoyue was a little surprised, but she didn't expect this case to be like this. She pondered for a moment and asked Cen Lian to take her to meet the person called Hades first.

The dungeon is dim and damp, the walls are lit with oil lamps all the year round, and the faint light casts, elongating the figures, inexplicably becoming a little hideous, and even the slightest wind penetrating through the cracks seems to make people shudder.

Mo Shuoyue silently followed behind Cen Lian, and when she passed by the cell where the two body thieves were held, she suddenly heard a sound, she paused slightly, and looked sideways.

As soon as one of the stocky and stocky middle-aged men saw them, he immediately stepped forward and shouted again and again:

"Adult, adult, small and small, everything has been recruited, this is what the two of us did, and it has nothing to do with others!"

Because of his hurry, the placket of his prison clothes showed a white corner, and the material was very different from the coarse linen prison clothes, which looked like ......

Mo Shuoyue stared at it for a moment, smiled lightly, and thought to herself, it turned out that the confession was retracted for this reason.

She continued on, ignoring the screams behind her.

Walking through the three cells, Cen Lian stopped in front of the fourth, opened the cell door, and walked in.

There was a small window high up in the wall, and the light came in and fell on a woman in red, who sat cross-legged on the haystack with her eyes closed, her upper body straight, not moving, as if she was concentrating on meditation.

A few strands of her hair were scattered over her shoulders, but the overall hairstyle was recognizable, a hairstyle that a woman in her forties and fifties often wore to her.

But compared to her hairstyle, her face is much younger, and her face without powder is at most delicate, but it is better than her temperament and elegance, even if the gorgeous red dress is on her, she is not half tacky.

It's hard to imagine that the underworld, who is in the business of the dead, would have such a pleasing appearance.

Sensing that someone was approaching, the goddess opened her eyes, but her gaze was past Cen Lian and looked directly at the person at the door.

Mo Shuoyue retracted her gaze, raised her lips at her, and walked inside, "I just heard about the resume of a refiner, and I feel quite strange, maybe it's still your peer, but I want to hear it with you?" ”

Hades snorted disdainfully.

"He's, the milk name Nianniang, a person from Qizhou, has been smart and enlightened since childhood, and at the age of ten he was addicted to the art of Huang Lao and worshiped the Tsing Yi Sect. At the age of twenty-one, he returned to the red dust, and his whereabouts have been mysterious. ”

Mo Shuoyue casually read about her life experience, her expression was leisurely, but the face of the woman in red opposite her became more and more ugly.

"However, I think it's a bit of a mystery to be a mystery about my whereabouts, after all, the real person is right in front of my eyes."

She looked at the person opposite for a long time, "I heard that the disciples of the Tsing Yi Sect are all refiners, and when they are Hades Po, they are still the first to hear about it." I don't know, is this considered an insult to the teacher? ”

"What nonsense are you talking about, I can't even understand what you're saying!"

Mo Shuoyue said unhurriedly: "Am I talking nonsense, Master He knows it." Tsing Yi teaches immortal cultivation and enlightenment of reincarnation, while you are doing the business of the dead and disturbing the order of the underworld. In this life, I'm afraid it's hopeless to become an immortal, right? ”

In the end, after practicing piously for more than ten years, how dare she forget what she faithfully believes, her face turned white in an instant.

Mo Shuoyue didn't care about the increasingly pale face of the person opposite, and said to herself: "It's ridiculous to say, you just care about the eight-character pairing, but you don't care if the people underground are willing or not, they can look at it by buying and selling like this?" Or are you satisfied, but it's just your own selfishness......"

Hades's body trembled slightly, and she interrupted her with a hard voice, "Nonsense! I am the person who knows him best in this world, how could he not want to, you don't want to sow discord here! ”

He, not them.

Mo Shuoyue's heart moved, and she was even more convinced of her previous judgment.

"Who is he in your mouth?" Mo Shuoyue stared at her.

The Stygian was startled, and couldn't help but stare at her with wide eyes, and there was panic in her eyes, but it was only for a moment.

Soon she realized that she had slipped her mouth, lowered her eyelids, and said in a pretending calm voice:

"I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, I don't understand what you're saying."

He Nianniang's expression gradually calmed down, if it weren't for the knuckles outside her sleeves that were blue and white because they were clenched too tightly, she could really make others believe that she was not pretending to be calm.

"Don't worry, the official who went to the Tsing Yi Sect will be back tonight at the latest, and I will naturally get the news I want. Before I do that, let me guess what your departed lover did for a living, peddler? Pawns? Or is it a farmer? ”

Mo Shuoyue sat cross-legged on the grass pile opposite her, feeling that the ground was hard and cold, and wanted to put some grass mats on it, but looking at the person opposite biting her lip and being silent, she didn't want to lose her momentum before the trial, so she had to give up.

She stared at He Nianniang and continued to speak slowly, "It doesn't seem to be either, that status is higher." I don't think you look down on businessmen, I'm afraid you didn't kidnap a son, right? ”

"Huh, crutch?"

He Nianniang sneered, "Put away your dirty thoughts, me and him, you are not qualified to evaluate." Don't you just want to get the truth out of my mouth and tell you what's the matter! I have one condition, though. ”

"Even if you bear all the responsibility, I have no right to let Ma Liu and them go." Mo Shuoyue guessed what she thought and told the truth.

He Nianniang froze for a moment, "How do you know ......" Then her face turned cold again, "Since we can't do it, then we have nothing to talk about." ”

Even if He Nianniang has no personal feelings for Ma Liu, she still has righteousness.

Ma Liu's thoughts about her may not be as simple as this. But the two parties did not hide their selfishness, and tried their best to get each other out of danger, which was very rare, and Mo Shuoyue couldn't help but have a trace of respect in her heart.

"Ma Liu and Luo Hu violated the law, and the evidence is conclusive and irrefutable. I can't let them go, but I can still get a light sentence. This is my limit, Master He, this is what you earned. ”

Mo Shuoyue smiled lightly, her expression was serious and harmless, and without waiting for her to speak, she said: "It seems that Master He has no opinion, then you can let those two sign and draw first." ”

He Nianniang sneered and glared at her coldly, "You half-sized girl, you will make decisions for others." ”

"False praise, compared to the things you did, my little caution is not worth mentioning."

Since the accomplice is confirmed, let the principal confess his guilt, and the matter will be settled as soon as possible.

Mo Shuoyue smiled and turned to Cen Lian, "Uncle Cen, let the scribe prepare a confession as soon as possible, and when the two of them sign and draw the confession, don't forget to tell them - He Nianniang has confessed, confessed earlier, and can ask for a light sentence together, which is good for everyone." ”

Cen Lian was a little confused in his eyes, but he still understood that he kept his mouth shut at the right time, and according to her request, he left the cell and asked for a confession.

"If you are a businessman, you can really make a lot of money."

"Really? Then borrow the auspicious words of the alchemist. ”

He Nianniang sneered coldly and stopped looking at her.

Mo Shuoyue didn't care, changed to a relaxed sitting position, picked up a dry grass stalk and shook it in her hand casually, "Where to start?" Why don't you start with that lover of yours? ”

He Nianniang's pupils moved slightly, she didn't speak, she involuntarily looked up at the small window, and in her empty eyes, Mo Shuoyue clearly saw a trace of tenderness floating in her.
