Yan Jie hurriedly comforted Shen Cuttlefish and said: "Virtuous nephew Hugh should be alarmed, even if there are no witnesses, I am an old friend with your father, and this government should do its best to clear your name." ”

"Heheheha. Shen Cuttlefish laughed loudly when he heard this, his eyes were filled with tears, he staggered to his feet, pointed at Na Yan Jie and said with a smile, "Dog officer! Even if you put me in this prison, how can you get away with the charges! What other conspiracies and tricks do you have, so that this son can see and understand!"

Yan Jie shook his head and sighed: "The virtuous nephew is serious, if this government really wants to embarrass you and give you a hat, then how can you order the jailer to entertain you? According to the law of this dynasty, a new prisoner in a cell must first be beaten with a hundred kills, and if you want to confess your guilt, you will be severely punished, making your life worse than death." But look at you now, aren't you talking to this government here unscathed?

Shen Cuttlefish knew that his eloquence was far inferior to this Yan Jie, so he didn't want to say more to him, sat down on the ground again, sneered, and asked casually: "So far, what else do you want to do, what purpose you have, just say it, don't hide it." ”

"This government really wants to exonerate the virtuous nephew. However, in the previous court, the testimony of the virtuous nephew was clearly concealed, full of suspicions, and very strange, which led the government to make such a decision. Now, if you want to solve this case, the truth will come out, the real murderer will be chased, and the virtuous nephew will be innocent. It is necessary to understand the ins and outs of the whole thing. Yan Jie persuaded.

When Shen cuttlefish heard this, he immediately became vigilant and hurriedly asked, "What do you mean by this?"

"Everyone in Anhuai Mansion knows that Shen Yuanwai and his wife are kind and charitable, and the Shen family is even more blessed, they are well-known good people and never grudge with others. Why was it slaughtered overnight by a group of unknown Jianghu people? What is the purpose of those Jianghu people?" Yan Jie asked again and again, and there was a shrewd light radiating from his sunken eyes.

"Perhaps...... Maybe it's my father's enemies when he was young, so he came to seek revenge...... He often told me that when he was young, he was young and vigorous, and he offended many people in the rivers and lakes. Maybe it's because the rivers and lakes are reckless and come for money, maybe it's ......" Shen cuttlefish pondered and meditated, but he really couldn't think of any suitable reason, so he had to prevaricate casually.

But Yan Jie didn't believe it, shook his head and said: "Virtuous nephew, if you refuse to tell the truth, how can I justify your wrongdoing? How can you arrest those people in the rivers and lakes, and avenge the 71 lives of Shen Yuanwai and your Shen family?

"What I'm saying is the truth......" Shen Cuttlefish had no confidence, so he had to stagger his eyes and turn his head.

Yan Jie saw it in his eyes, and became more and more convinced that he was deliberately hiding something: "Then this mansion has come to ask you, since you are a small family and you are here for money, why do you only kill people and prevent fires, but do not take away half of the wealth? If the enemy is looking for revenge, why wait until today to do it? In a heavily guarded place like Anhuai Mansion City, if you can kill Shen Yuanwai's husband and wife, then your martial arts must be higher than him, why would you grudge against him and wait until this time, instead of killing him back then?"

Shen Cuttlefish was speechless, sighed, and couldn't help clenching his fists: "What do you want to ask?"

"Motive! The motive of those quacks to kill. If you are not willing to tell you directly, this government can only think that in order to take over the Shen family's family business as soon as possible, you cooperated with the people of the rivers and lakes, killed the killer, murdered Shen Yuanwai and his wife, and personally planned this earth-shattering case, and convicted and beheaded you!" Yan Jie's face was solemn, staring at Shen Cuttlefish's eyes.

At this time, Shen Cuttlefish was also very entangled in his heart, and he didn't know how to answer, and thought: "That group of people from the rivers and lakes are obviously coming for the snow and the scroll." But if I tell me about this, I will reveal Master's whereabouts, and if the snow scroll is also searched by this dog official, it will be disloyal to Master, not only violating the agreement with him, but also harming his old man. ”

"Maybe it's going to cause some trouble. But if I don't say anything about the snow scroll, the dog will condemn me and behead me. It doesn't matter if I die, but isn't it in vain that Master has taught me martial arts? Who should avenge my father's and mother's great revenge? I must not ......die until I find the enemy."

Yan Jie saw that his face was embarrassed, and he must be thinking about countermeasures, so he deliberately provoked: "It's a pity that the revenge of Shen Yuanwai and his wife has not been avenged, and it is difficult for the spirit of heaven to look at it......"

Shen Cuttlefish thought hard for a while, and then he said, "Okay, I'm willing to tell the truth." But Lord Yan, can you guarantee that after I tell why those people came, I will be cleared of my name and let me out?"

Yan Jie was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "In this Anhuai Mansion, anything can be done with just one sentence from this mansion. What's more, it's so simple for you, just tell you the facts, and this government will definitely be able to avenge your grievances!"

"Okay! I can only tell you about this matter, these jailers and officials, including Pei Zhutou, must leave the cell! Do you dare?" Shen Cuttlefish leaned over and looked at Na Yanjie defiantly, wanting to test his courage. Pei Jingnian glanced at Shen cuttlefish, and then hugged his fists at Na Yan Jie and said, "My lord, this ......"

"Stand down, all of you. Yan Jie took his hands and commanded with a long sigh of relief.

"But my lord, your safety ......" Pei Jingnian was interrupted by Yan Jie before he finished speaking: "Ridiculous, in this Anhuai Mansion, what bold person dares to be unfavorable to this mansion? Quickly retreat, besides, through the prison door, Shen Gongzi will not hurt this mansion." Pei Jingnian had no choice but to lead the jailers out of the cell, leaving only the two of them to talk here.

Shen Cuttlefish smiled and said, "Lord Yan is so courageous, since this is the case, I will inform you of this matter." Yan Jie stepped forward and couldn't wait to ask, "Hurry up." ”

"The day before yesterday I met an old beggar in the city, and he handed me a book called 'The Scroll in the Snow'. Shen Cuttlefish's eyes flickered, and he said slowly, "Those people from the rivers and lakes are here for the "Scroll in the Snow", and I was locked in the forbidden practice room by my father because I violated the family rules, which is extremely hidden, and even many people in the Shen Mansion don't know how to open the mechanism. Therefore, I was lucky enough to save my life, and it is precisely because of this that I witnessed the whole process of this tragedy. ”

"In order to protect me, my father and mother were unwilling to hand over the "Scroll in the Snow", so they were killed by Cen Duan and others. After they killed my father, they inadvertently opened the mechanism of the secret room practice room, and then released me. I reluctantly fought with Na Cen for a while with the martial arts on the scroll, and he also forced me to hand over the scroll, but I refused. After I was defeated, I almost died at his hands, but fortunately I was rescued by Zen Master Kongxuan, and I have survived until now. ”

"How do you know that you were saved by that Kongxuan monk?" asked Yan Jie.

Shen Cuttlefish replied truthfully: "I woke up in the White Horse Temple today, and the little novice in the temple told me. ”

"In this way, your martial arts are all learned from the "Snow Scroll", and your father and mother were killed by thieves in order to protect you and "Snow Scroll". And the group of Jianghu people who don't know where they came from are also coming for the "Scroll in the Snow......" Yan Jie turned around, lowered his head and stroked his beard, muttered for a moment, and then suddenly turned around and pointed at the knife snowman and said: "Okay! In this way, things can make sense." ”

"Just like that, the adults believe that I can exonerate me?" Shen Cuttlefish squinted one eye, looked at Yan Jie with disdain, and asked half-teasing and half-serious.

Yan Jie smiled: "Yes, in this way, this mansion can wash away your grievances." "But why didn't I believe a word in my explanation in court, and rushed to convict and sentence me before I could finish speaking? But why have you changed your mind now, how do you know that what I said this time is not a lie?" Shen Cuttlefish said with a sneer.

When Yan Jie heard this, he laughed embarrassedly twice, avoided answering, but looked embarrassed, and said slowly: "It's a pity that there is still one piece of evidence left, if you have this evidence, it can prove that what you just said is true, and the government can acquit you." ”

"Isn't the evidence that the adult said the "Scroll in the Snow" left to me by the old beggar?" Shen Cuttlefish had expected him to have this trick, and said preemptively.

"Uh...... Yes, the beginning of everything points to the "Scroll in the Snow", and no matter what the identity of the old beggar is, as long as you temporarily hand over the "Scroll in the Snow" to this government as a court testimony, then your charges can be cleared, and this government will try to track down the whereabouts of that gang of thieves, bring them to justice, and avenge the Shen family. ”

"After the case is concluded, I can return the "Scroll in the Snow" to you, what do you think?" Yan Jie asked tentatively.

Shen Cuttlefish asked in embarrassment: "Then if the murderer can't be found, and the case becomes an unsolved case, then won't this "Scroll in the Snow" be stored with adults for the rest of its life as evidence?"

Yan Jie was seen through his thoughts, and hurriedly covered up: "As the Yin of Anhuai Mansion, how can this mansion tolerate that thief getting away with it." What's more, Shen Yuanwai and I are old friends. In public and private, the government is eager to break the corpses of that group of thieves into thousands of pieces. If the virtuous nephew trusts this government, within three months, this case will definitely be solved!"

But Shen Cuttlefish smiled and nodded: "My lord is really good, and he can solve this headless public case in three months, which is really worthy of the blue sky of Anhuai Mansion." It's a pity that I can't get that evidence anymore......"

"What do you mean by this?" Yan Jie heard this, and hurriedly asked, seeing the Shen cuttlefish with a smile on his face, he realized that he was out of shape, and hurriedly pretended to be calm, coughed lightly and said, "Why can't you take out the "Snow Scroll". ”

Shen cuttlefish then replied: "Because I have already burned the "Scroll in the Snow", this thing harms others and myself, and it is extremely ominous. My father and mother and my whole family died because of it, and I had a deep blood feud with the old beggar and the "Scroll in the Snow". ”
