Chapter 195: Doubtful Case

There was a stalemate for a while, and the balance was finally broken.

"Immortal Master Zhao, although you said that you took the little girl as an apprentice, but the little girl followed you alone, how could I, as a father, let people go easily. I'm afraid that after the little girl goes, she will be your apprentice in name, but I don't know what will happen in reality?" Xia Xingwen saw that Xiao Tian was hesitant, so he changed his attitude and threatened.

"No, I'm introducing a female monk to take your daughter as an apprentice, not teaching it myself, so..."Xiao Tian hurriedly explained, he didn't want any more misunderstandings.

"That's hard to say, the immortal master said so, how can I confirm it? And after my daughter leaves home, I'm afraid she won't come back, and I'm worried about her future." Xia Xingwen interrupted Xiao Tian's words and said something that was difficult to refute.

"This..."Xiao Tian didn't know how to answer, so he had to wait for the other party to continue.

"I don't think it's as good as this, as long as the immortal master is willing to help me with this, I will marry the little girl to the immortal master, so that after she leaves with you, I don't have to worry about anything anymore. Xia Xingwen suggested with a smile.

"What, no! I... Oh, sister, what are you doing, it's not me... Ah, stop it!" Xiao Tian was about to refuse immediately, but unfortunately he was still pinched by Wei Fengjue.

"Senior brother, you are actually waiting for the other party to mention this, and every time you pretend to refuse, you don't agree in the end. Wei Fengjue glared at Xiao Tian and said.

"It's not every time, it's just you, and I'm not going to refuse, don't you do it so quickly. Xiao Tian rubbed the place where he was pinched, and hurriedly retreated away from Wei Fengjue.

"Hmph, who knows what you think?" Wei Fengjue turned around angrily and stopped looking at Xiao Tian.

Ah, it hurts me. It turns out that the other party has such a plan, no wonder I let my daughter dress up so beautifully today, I was really killed by him.

"Lord Xia, I have two partners, and I will never agree to your proposal. I think it's really over, just take Zhao's dishonesty and leave!"

"Seniors are slow, if you don't agree to the marriage, forget it, but you can't lose your trust in the matter of accepting apprentices. Do you remember that you were still with me at the time, leaving two tokens?" Xia Chunzi stopped Xiao Tian again and said meaningfully.

"Token?" Xiao Tian asked puzzled.

I didn't have anything left? The magic weapons and other things are exchanged for elixir with you, not given away. It seems that I left you some pills, but that was also for you to accept... Huh?

"Don't you remember, senior, do you want to show it to seniors and seniors' wives?" Xia Chunzi looked at Wei Fengjue and kept winking at Xiaotian and hinting.

Do you think I'm going to give in?

"Ah, I remember, that's what happened. Well, since that's the case, I agreed, and the token doesn't need to be read, please take it away, and don't show it to others casually. Xiao Tian really gave in.

"Hahaha, okay, since that's the case, let's ask the immortal master to listen to me and talk about the case. It's a long story, so let's sit down and talk slowly. Xia Xingwen smiled happily and motioned for everyone to sit down and discuss.

"Alas, Lord Xia, aren't you a political envoy, why do you want to investigate the case? There are criminal departments and Dali Temple to try cases, and this doesn't seem to be your scope of responsibility. After Xiao Tian sat down helplessly, he asked the other party's purpose suspiciously.

"I'm going to look into this case, it's really for some private matter. The victim and the suspect in this case are all old friends of mine, so I have to intervene. Xia Xingwen explained.

"Oh, so the victim and the suspect also know each other?" Xiao Tian immediately thought of this, and began to take a little interest in the case.

Investigating the case seems to be quite fun, since you can't escape, you might as well try it.

"Yes, the victim Zhang Siyuan, speaking of which, is my protégé, who was the magistrate of Guangqing County before his death, and the suspect Lan Gao is a well-known local chivalrous man, and the two have a very good relationship and often drink together. But one day, Zhang Siyuan was found dead in his bedroom, and Lagoon was also unconscious in the room, still holding the murder weapon in his hand, because the door and window were locked from the inside, so Lagoon was identified as the murderer. Xia Xingwen slowly recounted the case.

Your protégé? Isn't that a person of your political faction? No wonder you have to put a lot of effort into investigating the case, and even sacrifice your daughter.

"Then this case is already very clear, maybe the two suddenly have some dispute, so they will kill people, the evidence is conclusive, there is no need to investigate. Although Xiao Tian knew that there was something wrong, he still said this, trying to close the case and pull it down.

Although this is the case on the surface, Lagoon will never kill Zhang Siyuan, and the relationship between the two is extraordinary. Zhang Siyuan has the grace of knowing Lan Gao, and Lan Gao has the grace of saving his life, both of them can give their lives to each other, and there is no contradiction that can make them turn against each other. As soon as the case came out, the prefect and general judgment of Zhang Siyuan's superiors quickly closed the case and convicted him, and handed the case over to the Criminal Department, and these people were all in a gang. I hurriedly asked Zhang Siyuan's county magistrate to write a letter to avenge Lan Gao, and handed over the case to Shengshang through the General Administration Department, which temporarily suspended the closure of the case. Xia Xingwen didn't let Xiaotian succeed and continued to talk about things.

Hmph, it's really still some things about the same party and fighting against each other.

"That's what the hostile party did, don't you need to check, don't you know everything?" Xiao Tian said again.

"Things don't seem to be so simple, because Zhang Siyuan is not in an important position now, and the contradictions with political opponents are not so big. Let's ask the immortal master to help track it down, the key is to find out the real culprit, so that everyone can rest assured. Xia Xingwen asked again and again.

Find out the real culprit so that everyone can rest assured? It turns out that you are afraid that you will also be harmed by this strange method, so you need to find out.

"Since the Lan Gao you mentioned is a chivalrous man, he should have good skills, and he may not be an ordinary person who can subdue him. Since he didn't do it, and the doors and windows were all locked, it was indeed difficult for mortals to get in and out. Xiao Tian finally carefully analyzed the case.

"That's right, that's why I think there may be an immortal cultivator behind it. The high-ranking officials in the court can occasionally invite some immortal masters, and the little girl is fortunate enough to have a glimpse of the immortal gate, and I have also heard some of these magical methods. I'm afraid that the real murderer used a spell such as a wall-piercing technique to leave the scene of the crime. Xia Xingwen analyzed.

"Well, but it's not necessarily, the spell that passes through the wall is still a little difficult, and it's still a little strange to have these skills and interfere in the affairs of mortals. Xiao Tian began to think deeply.

In any case, Xiaotian's help in investigating the case is decided, and he will not be able to go back for a while.
