Chapter 12 The Search for Guilt
Suddenly, a few miserable howls rang out in the night sky. Only then did Ni Xiu realize that it was time to be a child.
There was a sound of rustling in the next room, and I vaguely heard Orion's female general coaxing the little girl: "Don't be afraid, not afraid." Obediently, go to sleep, my mother is here. ”
Bloody gas? Ni Xiu frowned, she was very sensitive to bloody gas. After a little thought, follow the taste.
Hearing the sound of the door, the woman came to check, and the Orion was the only one left in the room. The woman called "the child and his father" twice, and saw the "child and his father" falling on the table, waving his hand again and again with his eyes closed, and said inarticulately: "Immortal, I can't drink anymore, you, a lot!
The woman spat in disgust and said, "Shame on you!"
Turning around, he twisted the handkerchief and helped the person back to the couch to rest.
When I arrived at the roof of Li Erniu's house, the screams were still ringing, terrible and terrifying, and I couldn't stop hearing them. It is not difficult to hear that the cry came from two women and one man, as if they were in pain. It seems that Li Erniu's family of three has suffered a disaster, and no one has been spared.
Ni Xiu didn't do much about uncovering the tiles in the upper room, and his subordinates were just about to move, and they were shocked that the touch was wrong!
It's no wonder that the sound is so loud, and the thatched house is not soundproof at all. Glimpsing a faint light next to it, it should be a "window", Ni Xiu hung upside down, and he could see the situation inside the house.
I saw that in addition to the three people in coarse linen clothes covered in patches, there were also three people in black standing in the room, surrounded by mist, and the yin qi was flourishing. The three people in coarse linen were all trapped out of thin air by a black chain, and their hands were tied together by a black silk thread, and they knelt in front of the three men in black in a strange posture. The three men in black each held a pair of black scissors and cut their fingers one by one. The scissors looked extremely blunt, and the fingers of the three men were pinched alive instead of being cut, and the process was very painful.
Ni Xiu didn't make a rash move, because whether it was chains, silk threads, or scissors, there was a crystal white light inside! This showed that the magic weapon was not an ordinary magic weapon, and the three black-clothed people were not ordinary immortals.
Ni Xiu's mind spun quickly, and suddenly a thought flashed, she was overjoyed, figured out the trick, and hurriedly slapped a talisman, but she retracted her head while tapping the talisman.
I saw that the talisman was not heading towards the three black-clothed people, but was silently circling above the heads of several people, as if he was looking for a suitable position. Finally, it stopped, and a bright light burst out of the ground, almost blinding a few people......
The white light was really pervasive, leaking out from the gap in Li Erniu's thatched house, illuminating half of the sky like day. Ni Xiu was almost not spared when he hid on the eaves, so he simply teleported into the distance and watched the white light gradually fall before teleporting back again.
When I returned, the three men in black were gone. The three members of Li Erniu's family were all stunned and slumped on the ground, and when they saw another black shadow falling from the sky, they trembled in unison, and they breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Ni Xiu's outfit clearly, and completely lost their strength and sat on the ground.
Ni Xiu didn't treat himself as an outsider at all, he looked around, and copied two broken stools, one against the wall, and the other was placed a few steps away to cross his legs.
While doing this, he said in his heart: "The three of you have no strength at all, you can't climb the stool, and this stool is wasted, don't blame me for being rude!"
After sitting down, he said excitedly: "How did you get into a bad sentence? Cut your fingers?...... Did you steal something? Did you steal it as a family?"
“......”
“......”
“......”
All three were speechless. They are about to die and live and feel uncomfortable, this person still looks happy, is it really good?
As soon as the words fell, he looked around and shook his legs, refuted what he had just said, and said, "No! If it is stealing, it can alarm and judge that it is something terrible, but your family is surrounded by walls, not like it!"
Several people in Li Erniu's family couldn't believe their eyes, and the handsome little boy in front of him who didn't look like a person should be the immortal who was rumored to be a guest at Li Erhu's house during the day. But aren't all immortals the kind of people who have fairy wind and bones? How could they be like her?
Ni Xiu didn't know what they were thinking, otherwise he would have died laughing on the spot.
Actually, she could probably guess what was going on. And she also clearly realized that she couldn't solve this problem at present, and she had to find the crux of the problem, and the crux of the problem definitely did not come from these three ordinary people.
Simply put, they don't have the ability yet!
And the reason why she came out to chat with them was just because she wanted to chatter. She endured and endured, endured and endured, and then found that she still couldn't restrain her curiosity......
Clearing his throat, Ni Xiu continued to flicker: "The person who came is a judge, as the name suggests, he is the judge of Xucheng, and he is an immortal." Even if the yin qi is strong, it is still an immortal, and many people can't afford to mess with it. You have all seen it, and if I had not heard the news and found it today, this punishment would not have been finished for a while. ”
"If I'm not mistaken, you have to do this kind of punishment once a day, right? You'd better tell me why and what happened, and maybe I can help. She glanced at the punishment that had been interrupted by her, because they had all three fingers left in their hands.
There was a deep imprint at the base of those three fingers, skin to skin, flesh to flesh, but they were all sunken in, and the bones inside could be vaguely seen, neither scabbing nor suppurating, and it looked really disgusting.
Presumably, the two severed fingers will grow on their own during the day, and then they will be sentenced to execution at night.
Several people hesitated for a while. Seeing this, Ni Xiu pretended to be angry and waved his little hand, got up and dusted off the thatch on his body, and said, "Don't say it, do you?" ”
"Immortals, don't go!"
"Immortals, help!"
"I said, I said, I said!"
Under the leadership of the old woman of the Li family, the three of them fell down in front of Ni Xiu in unison, and poured out all the causes and consequences in one go.
"Hmm......" I see.
After the three of them finished speaking, they kowtowed again and again: "The immortals save us! We are willing to offer immortal cards to the immortals, and use them as cattle and horses for the immortals for the rest ......of our lives."
Ni Xiu didn't drag his feet either, and said bluntly: "Love can't help." ”
The three of them were dumbfounded.
"That's a verdict! I don't want to mess with them!"
But don't you know that it was a confession? You can't help them, why do you trick them into telling the truth?
The three of them all thought this in their hearts, the old woman of the Li family was a bitter and mean person, and she was about to scold her when she opened her mouth, so she held back and almost fainted.
It's not that she changed sex, it's just that she was just about to speak, and suddenly remembered something: a mess in the former neighboring village, met an old Taoist who turned into a fate, mixed sheep feces into the rice to make a fuss, but the old Taoist did not change his face and ate the rice, bowed to his house three times, and burned incense three sticks obliquely into the ground, and since then there has been no grass in the land......
