511. Come and go without a trace (it's cold, pay attention to heating)
Gao Liang refused to admit his guilt no matter what.
Wang Qilin didn't expect him to confess, this person is an official oil, and he can be judged from the mouth of the common people that he is a dirty official, he has seen and experienced a lot of things like this, and he is an iron king.
The Iron King does not open the shell, and the dragon is also difficult to gnaw.
So he changed direction and said to the merchant: "Shopkeeper Xue, what about today's matter, you have planted, and now you only have two ways to go." β
"The first way, resist strictly, lie in front of the holy royal dragon robe, this is the crime of deceiving the king, can you understand the punishment for the crime of deceiving the king?"
The merchant trembled and fell to his knees, his face pale, his eyes glazed, and he did not say a word.
Xu Da said thoughtfully: "This official is kind, remind you, at least kill your head." β
The merchant looked up at him stunned, his lips trembling even more, and the muscles on half of his face almost twitched.
Xu Dachong smiled kindly at him: "No thanks, this official loves the people like a son, and he should remind you." β
Wang Qilin snapped his fingers in front of him and said: "The second way is to confess and be lenient, as long as you honestly explain the truth, then Your Majesty is magnanimous and can give you a chance to reform your ways." β
The merchant's frightened face suddenly relaxed.
At this time, Gao Liang suddenly said: "My lord, you are inducing a confession, Shopkeeper Xue may have recognized the wrong money baht just now, he did lose a hundred silver baht, so when he saw that the fifty silver baht found in Chen's house was very similar to the silver baht he lost, he was dizzy and talked nonsense in a hurry." β
Xu said sharply: "Shut up, do you have a part to speak here?"
The merchant seemed to have great confidence in Gao Liang, and after receiving the reminder, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed like pounding garlic: "Adults are clear, adults please be clear, the little one was really dizzy just now, and the little one lost his money too ......."
"Shut up. Wang Qilin shouted, "Do you really want to commit the crime of bullying the king?"
Frightened and desperate, the merchant cried out, "My lord? The villain was just confused for a while, and the villain did lose a hundred silver baht!"
Wang Qilin asked, "Is it? If you don't lose a hundred silver baht, then you have really committed the crime of defrauding the king?" Then you won't have a way back. β
Businessman gritted his teeth? Nodding heavily.
Chang Heli said with a gloomy face: "At this time? Still dead and unrepentant? I really don't cry when I don't see the coffin!"
"Come on, punish this official, and beat him with twenty boards!"
Wang Qilin stretched out his hand to stop his order? A smile appeared on his face again: "Lord Chang? It is not advisable to extort confessions by torture, and this official has always relied not on punishment to determine cases, but on evidence? Let him confess his guilt and be convinced!"
Saying that, he looked at Xie Toad? Xie Toad flicked his sleeves and sang: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable? Since this shopkeeper is not afraid of the power of the saint? I wonder if he is not afraid of the power of the gods?"
"Lao Dao can ask Huo De Zhenjun to come down to earth to verify the truth of his words? Bring a soldering iron to Lao Dao. β
Hearing this, someone outside the door gasped: "Soldering iron? Hey, my chest hurts when I mention this!"
Shopkeeper Xue shouted in horror: "It's not that you don't torture ......"
"Shut up!" a servant went up and slapped him, "Did you let you speak?"
At this time, the officials were already convinced by Wang Qilin and the three of them, and there was no need to say anything to Chang Heli, and someone immediately ran away in a hurry.
But after waiting for a while, the soldering iron was not picked up? Xie Toad asked, "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable?" How did you take this soldering iron for so long?"
Chang Heli slapped the table angrily? Another official ran out? Then soon both officials ran back.
The official who went to get the soldering iron first said, "Back to my lord, the soldering iron has to be burned fresh, and the small one has just lit the stove." β
Xie Toad shook his sleeves and said, "Didn't Lao Dao want to torture him to confess to the shopkeeper Xue?" You don't have to burn red, just take it. β
A soldering iron was brought in, it was cast in pig iron, and the long-term fire made it jet black.
Xie Toad was looking at it with a soldering iron, and suddenly reached out and pasted a talisman and swayed it, and shouted: "Flying Heaven Fire, Dabu Yang Jing, Up and Down Taiji, Circumference Four Dimensions, Turn the Sky Upside Down, Order to Chase Quickly!"
"A certain disciple of the Dharma Gong belongs to the Seven Dou Zhai Xingjun, and I invite the Fire De Zhenjun, just like the Ke Yue, the law!"
As his words fell, the talisman burned violently, the fire was extremely fierce, and the black soldering iron soon turned red.
Seeing this, the officials were vigorously smacking their teeth, and there were good men and women outside the door who knelt down directly: "The disciple has seen the old heavenly master!"
Eight Meow saw someone kneeling down and hurriedly ran over to look left and right: Friend of the Basin, what happened to the kidney?
Xie Toad held the red soldering iron with admiration on his face: "Huo De Zhenjun has fire and virtue, the most fair but temperament is like fire, he will not blame innocent people, nor will he let go of evil people." β
"But his old man is a fairy, a fairy is like a dragon, and he doesn't show up easily, how can we know his attitude towards a person?
"Stick out your tongue and lick it, if it is an innocent and innocent body, Huo De Zhenjun will never hurt him, but if he is guilty, especially at this time because of his sins and evil deeds, his tongue will be burned!"
He admired the red-colored soldering iron, and suddenly stretched out to the shopkeeper Xue: "If you really lose a hundred silver baht, and really regard Chen's fifty silver baht as your lost silver baht, then lick this soldering iron and let Huo De Zhenjun call the shots for you!"
The soldering iron came out, with a hot wind.
Shopkeeper Xue screamed and crawled back, rolling and crawling.
Xie Toad pointed the soldering iron at Gao Liang again, but Gao Liang was calm and said: "This is the words of the adult's family, who can prove that the adult is telling the truth?
Hearing this, Xie Toad laughed: "Don't say that the innocent person will be burned by burning his tongue, he won't be burned, if you don't believe in the old way, I will show you!"
He looked around.
Whether it was the officials or the people, their faces suddenly turned gloomy, and they subconsciously ran back:
It's too wild to listen to the heavenly supervisors.
Xie Toad looked at Wang Qilin and Xu Da, and Wang Qilin stepped forward: "This official is dedicated to the court, the people, and the holy country, and he thinks that he has never done anything wrong, and today he is dedicated to upholding justice for the people, so he is not afraid of the punishment of Huode Zhenjun!"
He had faith in the old Taoist.
The red-hot iron reached out to him, and he licked it quietly.
The tongue licked over the soldering iron, and the saliva rattled and brought up a white mist.
Wang Qilin stuck out his tongue and was intact.
The onlookers followed the tricksters in the bazaar, shouting, "Good!"
Xu Da's heart was weak, and his eyes wandered.
Gao Liang shouted: "Lord Wang has cultivation, cultivation is to reach the sky, of course he is not afraid of a burning iron. β
Xie Toad handed the soldering iron to Chen and asked, "Chen, do you belong to these fifty silver baht?"
Chen said: "My lord Mingjian, it is indeed the slave family. β
Xie Toad asked again: "Then how did you get this money, do you have a clear conscience?"
Chen nodded hurriedly: "Master Huiguan, have a clear conscience, the slave family has a clear conscience, this is the money that the slave family deserves, and it is also the money that the slave family will support their children in the future!"
Xie Toad handed over the red-colored soldering iron: "If you have a clear conscience, lick it." Lao Dao can promise you that as long as you don't steal money today and these fifty silver baht come in a proper way, Huo De Zhenjun will never hurt you!"
Chen said: "The slave family knows that you and that young adult are the master of the blue sky, the slave family believes in your words, and the slave family is not afraid!"
She leaned in and stuck out her tongue and licked the iron.
The people and the officials craned their necks and stared wide-eyed, and Yameow also stood up and widened his eyes and crossed his feet and opened his mouth, and he wanted to open his eyes.
A little white mist floats on the soldering iron.
Chen's tongue was unharmed.
The people outside the door were even more excited: "Okay!"
"Just say she's innocent. β
"I know this Chen, I just said that she will never steal!"
Gao Liang frowned, and the shopkeeper Xue was like earth.
The soldering iron reached out.
Shopkeeper Xue hurriedly stepped back.
The soldering iron chased after him.
Xu yelled: "Open your mouth and lick it well!"
Shopkeeper Xue finally collapsed, he knelt on the ground and shouted: "The adult spares his life, the adult is magnanimous, the villain lies, the villain is not a person, but this matter is what the big man instructed the villain to do!"
"Shut up! nonsense!" Gao Liang roared.
Xie Toad stretched out the soldering iron in front of him, so frightened that he took two steps back.
Wang Qilin shouted at the shopkeeper Xue: "Go on, confess leniently, reunite with the family, resist strictness, and celebrate the New Year in prison!"
Shopkeeper Xue covered his face and cried: "Yes, yes, the adults are magnanimous, and the small ones say everything." β
"Master Gao said that Chen's family has fifty silver baht, let me cooperate with him to act, and earn the fifty silver baht, and then we will add five to each other, and one person will share twenty-five silver baht. β
"The villain is obsessed, the villain is not a person, but there is no way, the villain owes twenty silver baht in foreign debt, so he can only promise to act for him......"
"Your Excellency is magnanimous, you have said it, Your Majesty is magnanimous now, and you can give the villain a chance to reform himself!
Wang Qilin said: "This official is true to his word, and his words must be believed and his deeds will be fruitful!"
"You ordinary people dare to commit the crime of bullying the king, the original crime should be beheaded, for the sake of your meritorious report of Gao Liang, this official sentenced you to a bitter prison sentence of 20 years, you go to prison to reform your ways, don't waste the magnanimity of the saint!"
Shopkeeper Xue seemed to have been pulled out of his bones, and suddenly collapsed to the ground: "Two or twenty years in prison?"
Wang Qilin asked: "Is this still your meritorious report to Gao Liang, otherwise the official will give you back the beheading to show the public?"
Shopkeeper Xue shouted: "The lord spares his life, and the villain has to report Gao Liang for other things! Gao Liang has done a lot of evil, he has done many bad things, the villain has to report him, and the villain has to make meritorious contributions!"
Wang Qilin looked at Chang Heli.
Chang Heli's face turned pale, and he shouted: "Escort Gao Liang and Xue to this official and put them in prison!"
Gao Liang shook his head helplessly, and smiled bitterly: "People are not as good as heaven, and I actually met an official who listened to the heavenly prison here, this is really not as good as heaven!"
The two were imprisoned, and Wang Qilin and the three withdrew from the court.
Chen knelt on the ground and chased a few steps and shouted: "The grass people thank the Qingtian master, please leave the name of the Qingtian master, and the grass people will set up an immortal card for you!"
The people outside also knelt down, and the Qingtian Lord shouted very reverently.
Wang Qilin raised his hand and said, "Everyone, please get up, this official has just done some internal things, and it is not worthy of you to bow down so much." β
As soon as he saw that he couldn't get through the main entrance, he went into the back hall and hid.
This is also to give Chang Heli face, as long as the three of them are in the court, Chang Heli will be restless as soon as he is in charge of the county.
The back hall was quiet, and Fat Wuyi hugged his fist at Xie Toad and said, "Dao Ye is still powerful, and he has invited Huo De Zhenjun down." β
Xie Toad stroked his beard and sneered: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, I invited a fart Huode Zhenjun to scare them." β
Fat Wuyi said: "How is this possible? The Seventh Master and the Chen family both licked the soldering iron with their tongues, and then it was fine, this must be the power of the Fire De True Monarch." β
Xie Toad shook his head with a smile: "If you have a clear conscience, or as long as you don't have a dry mouth, then it's okay for you to lick the soldering iron." β
Wang Qilin looked at him in surprise.
To tell the truth, he really thought that Xie Toad had moved out of the great god of Huode Zhenjun, nothing else, Dao Ye is awesome, Dao Ye really has this ability!
And he had been complacent about being recognized by Huo De Zhenjun just now, but now Xie Toad said that everything was fake?
It's too late!
Xie Toad smiled and said: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, are you all serious? This is just a little trick, don't look at the hot soldering iron is very scary, in fact, if you just lick it with your tongue, and there is saliva on your tongue, you won't be burned." β
"Because the saliva will isolate the heat of the soldering iron for a short time, people with a clear conscience will face the soldering iron as usual, and they will not be burned to the tongue after licking. And if someone commits a crime, then he will definitely have a dry mouth under the nervousness, then he will be terrible, and he will be burned very badly. β
Xu Da pondered: "Master Dao, uncle thinks that no matter whether this person has committed a crime or not, whether he is weak or not, whether he is nervous or not, if you let the uncle lick this thing, the uncle will definitely have a dry mouth." β
Wang Qilin also said: "Master Dao, this trick is not good, right? What if the criminal has a good psychological quality, or if we meet a habitual criminal, he just isn't nervous?"
Xie Toad said: "In the face of Huo De Zhenjun's examination school, there is no criminal who is not nervous!"
Wang Qilin said: "That's not necessarily, or someone is born with a tongue that secretes a lot of saliva......"
"Okay, okay, Seventh Master, don't talk nonsense. Xie Toad waved his hand impatiently, "Anyway, Lao Dao has already helped you settle people, let's think about how to talk to Changzhi County later." β
Wang Qilin dragged a chair and sat down, and said, "How can you talk? If he is smart, he will know not to offend me." Just now I have already demonstrated our strength in the public court, the royal dragon robe, the holy promotion, the head of the wind guard, and the cultivation of high strength, which of these four did he offend?"
Xie Toad nodded slowly.
Chang Heli was indeed very polite to them, and when it was close to noon, he hurried over, wiped his sweat and said: "I'm really sorry, I'm really sorry, my lords, there are many chores in a small place, and I couldn't find time to greet you in the morning, please allow the lower officials to apologize again." β
Wang Qilin waved his hand and said: "Lord Chang is polite, official affairs are important, this official came to Zhending Mansion as the first person to watch the wind and guard, it is to inspect the officials at all levels in the city, if you don't deal with official business in order to greet a few of us, this official will ask you to apologize." β
"Apologize to Your Majesty!"
Chang Heli said again and again that he didn't dare, he prepared a banquet and invited them to dinner.
This meal has to be eaten, Wang Qilin gave Xie Toad a look: drunk him, question!
The Dawei River opens in the waters of Luoba County, there are many aquatic products, and spring is a good time to eat river fresh, so this meal is naturally a river fresh feast.
Wang Qilin and the others ate the stir-fried snails with pepper sauce that they used to eat in the small village of Shazhou in the Yellow River, and now the snails have begun to get fat, and they are very happy to eat the snails.
Among them, Xu Da is the best at eating snails, don't look at his thick tongue, but he is very flexible, as soon as the snail reaches his mouth and is sucked and licked by him, the snail meat will come out, very soon.
The group took turns to raise a glass to Chang Heli, but Chang Heli didn't dare to refuse, and was immediately confused.
However, he drank very poorly, Xie Toad poured too much wine, and he quickly drank too much and got under the table.
How can they talk in this way? How can people talk when they are drunk and confused?
Of course, as for whether this congratulatory gift is really drunk or fake, it's hard to say, anyway, he snores very loudly.
There is also a big seal that listens to the heavens and is accompanying the wine.
The local big seal is called Yuan Qing, he is in his fifties, he is a corpse digger, and he is also an old official.
Wang Qilin chatted with him, and he was grateful and flattered in all kinds of ways.
But if you want to find out about the diversion of the Great Reed River and the flooding of the uphill and downhill slopes, he spreads his hands and says that he doesn't know.
It's useless to pour wine on him, the old official is very good at saying that there are one set of rules on the wine table, and Xie Toad was defeated when he went into battle in person, but he was choked enough.
The main thing is that they are sitting on benches today, and there are people around everyone to serve, and the old Taoist priest has no place to hide wine.
As soon as Wang Qilin saw that something was wrong, he gave Ambassador Xu a look.
Xu Da patted the wine jar and sat down to find Yuan Qing to drink, Yuan Qing laughed and began to play Tai Chi, which was very slippery.
But his words were useless in front of Xu Da, because Xu Ye just said: "This bronze captain is personally sealed by the saint and personally promoted, why, let you drink a glass of wine is wronged by you?"
He successfully overturned Yuan Qing, but after drinking too much, this old official opened his mouth and grinned, no matter what he asked, he was foolish.
Of course, from this point, Wang Qilin can see that this product has not drunk too much, but the other party is showing that he is drinking too much and is being foolish, what can he do?
Guanfeng Wei also has to pay attention to the rules when doing things, Yuan Qing clearly does not cooperate with them, Wang Qilin really has no choice.
However, this does not mean that he has nothing to gain, on the contrary, the resistance shown by Chang Heli and Yuan Qing made him certain of one thing:
There was a problem with the diversion of the Dawei River back then, and the whole village was wiped up and downhill but not found out, which is even more problematic!
There was a toilet in the private room, but the urine bucket was knocked over by a small servant, and the toilet could not be used, so they had to go to the public toilet in the restaurant if they wanted to go to the toilet.
Wang Qilin went to pee, and after entering the latrine, he unfastened his trouser belt, and a silk thread passed through the pit baffle like a flying snake to kill!
Silent, fast as a ghost.
Suddenly, caught off guard.
But to be faster than Wang Qilin, it is really looking for death, as the first fast player of the Heavenly Prison Ghost Hunting Heavenly Group, Wang Qilin said that whether he is playing with knives and swords or playing with guns and sticks, he is famous for being fast!
The silk thread was pierced, and Wang Qilin immediately performed Taiyue's indestructible magic skill and pinched the big handprint to sweep it around for the big wheel of cobalt, and tied the belt of his trousers with his other hand.
What seemed to pass through the wood was a wire that stabbed like a snake on the chakra, and then quickly wound around his arm like a snake.
In an instant, the wire turned into a fire line, and the toilet pit baffle was blazing.
Wang Qilin slashed out, the burning baffle turned into pieces, and a figure flashed by, directly into the pit?
The Goldfinch is unbeatably fast, but it will have to be blind if the opponent gets into the pit - can't let the Goldfinch go into the dung pit, right?
Wang Qilin was really caught off guard!
The sneak attacker's cultivation is very good, and the use of weapons is also ingenious, but it is still too naΓ―ve to want to deal with him.
The moment the wheel cobalt seal caught the iron line that came from the sneak attack, Wang Qilin knew that the opponent's cultivation was only good: the opponent's sneak attack could not break through his own defense, so when he seriously fought back, he would definitely be able to win the opponent.
As a result, his opponent's decisiveness exceeded his expectations.
If you miss a hit, drill the pit immediately!
Wang Qilin didn't expect his opponent to choose such a path anyway.
It's really the hardest road.
Whether it was the golden-winged bird who liked to overdrive, the murderous ascara, or even the god of incense, song and python, they were all stunned and stayed on the pit to look at each other.
The little Asura shouted angrily: "He actually ran away? As soon as Lao Tzu came out, he ran away, and he ran away without hitting him at all?"
Xiangshen covered his nose and asked, "He hasn't run far yet, has he?" If he goes down to chase him, he may catch up." β
"Who's going down?" the little Asura asked him menacingly, "You go down?"
The incense god shook his head.
The little Asura turned his head and glared at the god of songs: "You who have chickens on your head, you go down!"
The god of song roared, "Why?"
The little Asura pointed to the pit and said, "There is and urine down there, where does the urine come from?" The chickens came from, so you bow your head and go into it, and use the words on your head to open the way, this is called self-inflicted, and when you touch something, it is returned to its original owner......
The god of incense and the goldfinch said, "That makes sense. β
The god of song roared angrily: "Lao Tzu is not a chicken on his head!"
"You are. The little asura, the golden-winged bird, and the incense god said in unison, and the python god couldn't speak, so they nodded.
Seeing this, the god of song rolled his eyes, and his heart was broken: It's just that others are bullying me, and you are a newcomer who also bullies me?
He pointed at the python god and said angrily: "If you say that I have a chicken on my head, then his whole body is a chicken, why don't you let him drill it?"
The incense god and the goldenfinch glanced at each other and nodded thoughtfully: "Makes sense!"
Wang Qilin slapped them all away: "There's a fart, people have already run away, what are you still arguing about here?
