Chapter 13: A Simple, Kind, and Handsome Charlatan [New Book for Collection!]
The peach leaves are pointy and pointy.
And the willow leaves covered the sky.
The girl jumped up and down and came to Li Chu's side.
"Hello, I'm Chaotianque's purple-clothed guard, Li Xinyi. Her voice was crisp, soft, and somewhat nice.
The catchers in the back room listened, and a row of people were all shocked, and their jaws fell to the ground.
This girl who obviously has a fierce expression, a dry voice, and a hard tone in front of us, why did she become soft in an instant?
The speed of this face-changing is terrifying!
Li Chu didn't care if it was a soft girl or a tigress in front of him, he only cared about the name he heard in his ears.
Chaotianque.
Alas.
He sighed secretly and arched his hand: "Down there is the Taoist priest of Deyun Temple outside Yuhang Town, Li Chu. Since there is an adult here, I shouldn't be needed, right?"
In fact, what he really said in his heart was, then my bounty should be gone, right?
Of course, Li Chu knew what Chao Tianque was doing.
In that year, the Heluo Dynasty sealed the twelve immortal gates, which were divided into seven sects and five factions.
The Zhongzhou Imperial Court is one of the five major factions.
Among the giants of the Immortal Gate, Chaotianque is extremely different. The difference is that although it is an independent sect, it serves the Heluo court.
This involves some high-level secrets, which are not known to outsiders.
In short, now Chaotianque can be regarded as a court institution specializing in ghosts and gods, and has offices in various continents and prefectures.
Li Chu is "self-aware".
It is because Chaotianque can't open the town that he will have the business of helping the government to exorcise evil spirits.
Since someone has come to the imperial court, he should also withdraw with interest.
"Eh, why don't you need it?" Li Xinyi rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "People have just arrived here, and they don't understand the situation yet, so I can better solve the trick by having a local to help me." ”
After saying this, a low coughing sound immediately came from behind her, and a shadow of a quick and obscene one flashed in her mind.
They don't count people.
She quickly defined.
Hey?
Li Chu's eyes lit up and said, "Then the yamen still needs my help?"
"Of course, you'll come with me later, and I don't have a knowledgeable helper. Li Xinyi said.
At the same time, she solemnly stated in her heart that this was for the purpose of investigating the case.
I was already suspicious of this Taoist priest! I just took this opportunity to approach him and see if he had any ghosts!
That's right, that's it.
Even though he looks very unsuspecting......
But you have to dig a little deeper to find out.
Li Chu groaned for a while, and then asked, "Then ...... my bounty?"
"Give as originally intended. Li Xinyi waved his hand.
Although someone came to Chaotianque, it stands to reason that this bounty should not be issued.
But...... Anyway, this money is also from the yamen, even if it is used to invite an irrelevant person who is just eye-catching, it doesn't matter.
Can public money be called money?
Li Chu smiled when he heard this, and he also added a touch of good impression to this atmospheric girl.
He nodded, and added, "Of course, it's not about money. As cultivators, we originally had the duty of destroying demons and defending the path. ”
"The little Taoist has a very high consciousness. Li Xinyi praised with a smile.
At the same time, he screamed in his heart, he was obviously greedy for money and refused to admit it, so cute!
Speaking of which.
The money-grubbing and the lustful...... It's a good match.
"Master Xie complimented. ”
"Oh, don't call people adults, they're still young. ”
"Forehead ......"
After saying that there was no match, the two left side by side and went to the scene of the murder.
The rest of the group of catchers behind them looked at each other.
You're not small at all, are you?
It's huge!
And...... Did you leave something behind this big adult?
Don't you even take a quick arrest with you? Although we didn't want to go.
Then you should at least bring the headcatcher, right? Oh, the headcatcher was knocked out by your own hands.
Looking at the chic and graceful backs of the two, the catchers couldn't help but be a little suspicious.
This style of painting, are you really going to catch ghosts?
......
Li Chu and Li Xinyi walked two or three miles along the river embankment, and then came to Xialiu Village, where the trick occurred.
Along the way, the sparkling waves, the sunset reflects the mountains, the warm breeze is coming, and the walk is quite comfortable.
On the way, Li Xinyi carefully probed Li Chu's aura and found that there seemed to be no true qi fluctuations on his body.
So she asked, "Little Daoist, which realm of the Seven Realms of Heaven and Man have you cultivated to now?"
"Huh?" Li Chu was stunned and asked truthfully, "What are the Seven Realms of Heaven and Man?"
"Hehe, it's something that doesn't matter. Li Xinyi shook his hand, as if it really didn't matter.
At the same time, she also completely let go of her suspicions about Li Chu.
There was no fluctuation of true qi, and he didn't even know what the Seven Realms of Heaven and Man were, which showed that Li Chu didn't know anything about cultivation at all, and it was impossible for him to commit a big case like raising ghosts and causing chaos.
Then obvious......
He's just a simple, kind, handsome charlatan.
The affairs of the liar are not in the hands of Chaotianque.
If it's an ugly liar, Master Li doesn't mind taking care of the catchers.
Moreover, it is also very powerful that one person can deceive the entire yamen of Yuhang Town for so long.
Loved, loved.
......
Soon, the two of them walked to Xialiu Village. Li Xinyi's face also began to become serious, and he regained some of his demeanor under the Chaotian Que.
As for Li Chu, he has always been very serious.
Compared to dealing with Li Xinyi's chat, he still felt that it was easier to deal with resentful spirits.
This tragedy happened at Fang's house in Xialiu Village.
A small dilapidated courtyard with only a few thatched huts sits at the end of the village with few doors. It seems that this Fang family is not only poor, but also may not have a good relationship with the villagers.
The people from the yamen came to clean up early in the morning, and the scene had been cleaned up by this time.
It looked like an empty yard, and although the house was a mess, there was no blood.
Li Xinyi had read the file several times before he came, and he was familiar with the case by heart.
"There are four people in the Fang family, and my father Fang Da is thirty-three years old. Son Fang Gang, 12 years old. Mother Fang Liu, 23 years old. Daughter Chen Yingying, four years old. She gave Li Chu a brief introduction.
"Fang Da's daughter Chen Yingying?" Li Chu suddenly grasped the blind spot.
Li Xinyi paced back and forth in the courtyard, as if measuring something, and explained:
"Fang Da and Fang Liu are both divorced, Fang Da's ex-wife...... was beaten to death by him, Fang Liu's ex-husband died of illness, and both of them got married again with their children. ”
Li Chu was slightly silent.
Li Xinyi's voice also lowered halfway through speaking.
It is indeed a silent thing for a man to kill his wife and still live a good life, and still be able to marry the next wife.
After a pause, Li Xinyi said again: "Some people said that last night, I saw Fang Liu's family looking for her daughter in the village, saying that Yingying was missing, but she shouldn't have found it. ”
"Early this morning, some people who went to the fields found that something was wrong, the door of Fang's house was not opened, and all the poultry and dogs in the yard died. The bold villagers went in and saw a horrific scene. ”
"According to the results of the autopsy, Fang Liu was beaten to death by blunt force on the back of the head, and Fang Gang was drugged and poisoned. The reason why it was determined that it was a resentful spirit committed the crime was because of Fang Da. He strangled himself to death by himself, his body was cold and biting, and there were two ghost handprints on his neck, which were obvious traces of resentful spirits. ”
Li Chu touched his chin, it seemed a little complicated?
Fang Liu and Fang Gang should have been killed by someone, because it is impossible for ghosts to use methods such as poisoning and percussion.
But Fang Da was killed by a ghost again.
He asked, "What about the little girl?"
"Chen Yingying's body was found behind the mountain, and she fell down the hillside and died. ”
Sure enough, it was a tragedy.
But with these various ways of dying, Li Chu couldn't figure it out for a while.
However, it doesn't matter if he can't figure it out, he is not the fast arrest of the yamen, so he doesn't have to explore the truth of the case.
As long as there are ghosts here, it's fine.
The cool breeze blew from the other side of the mountain, easily blowing through the walls of the Fang family's thatched hut, rolling up a whining sound.
It was like someone was crying.
Unconsciously.
It's dark.
Li Xinyi looked at Li Chu very seriously: "Without my order for a while, don't do it lightly." Wraiths are different from ordinary ghosts, and once they are provoked, things can be troublesome. ”
In her heart, Li Chu is already a ten-out charlatan.
So her request to Li Chu is that as long as she doesn't cause chaos, it's enough.
This is a rare gentleness for Li Xinyi, Chaotianque's new purple-clothed guard.
