At this time, the officers of the Qin army in the hall were also discussing, Captain Li Qian was sitting upright, listening to the discussion of the military marquis under him with great interest, and glanced at Mu Qing outside from time to time, and after listening to it for a while, there was some impatience in his eyes, and when the discussion outside started, it was transmitted to the hall, he retracted his humble expression, seeing this situation, the military marquis below stopped discussing and recommended Wang Ping to report. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Wang Ping first saluted Li Qian on the main seat, and then said aloud: "Captain, after the subordinates discussed, I feel that what this tree demon said should be true. On the night of the incident, his subordinates led people to investigate the scene and found that only the traces of his mana release and fighting were found under the rockery, and the rest were not found. The head of the Sun family and his sixth brother died in a unique way, it should be that someone or a demon bit off their throats, sucked up the essence and blood in their bodies and died, and the rest of them were attacked by sharp weapons, and the method should be killed by the same person, and judging from the traces of the fight at the scene, the murderer was not a wood demon. The real murderer was agile and sharp, and judging from the scene, he should have been injured. In the excavated secret passage and the scene of catching the wood demon, what was found was the blood stains of the wood demon itself, but the murderer did not leave the slightest trace of blood, it should be the wood demon escaped from the ground and was discovered by it and secretly hunted down, but I didn't think that the wood demon was vigorous and could survive. On the day of the crime, the murderer was able to leave without leaving a trace, and the concealment method was quite clever, and three days have passed since the incident, the murderer should have left. ”

After listening to Wang Ping's report, Li Qian's face was impatient, he sat up straight and picked up the military seal, "That being the case, the case is judged as follows," "Smack!" According to the laws of the Great Qin, the casters were beheaded and abandoned the city, and the rest sat together, remembering that the Ju clan was slaughtered, only their property was confiscated, and no longer punished; As for the murderer of the Sun family's extermination case, although the people of the Sun Mansion are criminals, before the judgment of this case, they must not be approved by the government, and no one is allowed to kill others without permission. In addition, His Majesty has an order to send prisoners from all over the country to serve in Xianyang, so the prison will be examined before noon, and in the afternoon, the officers will lead the team to send those who have been punished too heavily to the county seat, and then the county government will send them to Xianyang. The case has been closed, and if there is any dissatisfaction, you can appeal to the county government. When someone comes, send the demon prisoner back to the prison, the military government is heavy, and the rest of the people are scattered. ”

The people began to disperse, Mu Qing was dragged slowly by the soldiers to the prison - he was seriously injured, coupled with the pressure of shackles, unable to get up and walk, the soldiers had to grab the shackles and chains and drag him away, there are often monsters invaded here, and the local soldiers have nothing to pity him. It's just that before they reach their destination, the team stops. Mu Qing raised his head and saw the person who was sweating profusely, and couldn't help but feel a wave of emotion in his heart.

The person who came was Li Laohan who took him into the city, and the two entered the city together three days ago, but they didn't want to see each other again, but the situation changed. Li Laohan took his granddaughter Li Ying, and followed the second son of the Liu family who often fought with Mu Qing, tired and sweaty and panting, looking up at the sun in the sky, he knew that they should have set off very early in order to enter the city, but they still failed to catch up with the trial, and the three of them entered the city to inquire about the results and hurried over. Li Laohan begged and begged the officer who led the team, and took out the money bag to give it to the other party, and finally sent the person to kneel, and the tun chief let him go, but there were still guards between several people. In fact, this place belongs to the control of the military government and the prison, there are many masters, and the demon prisoner has been seriously injured, and there are magic weapons and torture tools to suppress it, so there is no need to worry about what will happen.

When the three of them saw Mu Qing, Li Laohan's eyes were full of concern and worry, his granddaughter Li Ying's eyes were a little red, and even Erzhuzi, who usually looked down on him, had unbearable in his eyes at this time. Li Laohan didn't care about wiping the sweat off his face, probed Changge used by the soldiers to stop him, and asked him loudly: "Brother Mu, are you a monster?"

Mu Qing looked at his somewhat soaked clothes, opened his mouth but couldn't say anything, he lowered his head to avoid the other party's direct gaze, and said a little weakly: "Uncle Li, it's the Sun family who wants to harm me......"

"Let me ask you, are you a monster?" Li Laohan's eyes were a little red, he grabbed the wooden pole, the green tendons in his hands condensed, and roared at Mu Qing with some hoarseness.

"Uncle Li, I, I'm ......"

"You ......" Li Laohan stretched out his hand and pointed at Mu Qing, he was speechless at this time, Li Ying also seemed to have been drained of his strength to stand there in a daze, his arm hung weakly on his grandfather, shaking with the old man's somewhat trembling body, and the second pillar on the other side was holding Li Laohan with both hands, staring at Mu Qing with big eyes, as if he wanted to burn him clean with the anger in his eyes. To be honest, when you completely accept a person, trust and rely on him, and treat him as your own relative, and suddenly find out that that person is your enemy, I am afraid that it will be even crazier than this.

Erzhu was young and vigorous, he couldn't stand this kind of fraud and betrayal, he suddenly got up, stretched out his hand and grabbed the soldier's weapon and was about to rush towards Mu Qing, but after all, he was just a mountain village kid who had cultivated some superficial methods, and he was no match for the sergeant of the army who cultivated himself, but he was overthrown to the ground, and he was firmly pressed to the ground before he moved, and even his mouth was blocked, and he couldn't speak, and several weapons were pointed at the three people in an instant, so that they didn't dare to move again, for fear that they would be killed on the spot as prisoners if they were not careful.

Mu Qing lay on the ground, tried to salute the leader of the team with his hands stuck in the flail, and then said: "This general, these people are residents of Nanshan, and they have no ill will towards you, they just want to kill me, a monster." After speaking, he saluted Li Laohan who was sitting on the ground, "Uncle Li, I know that you hate monsters for making trouble in Nanshan, harassing the residents, and causing the people to lose their harvest." But in fact, apart from me, Nanshan has been demon-free for hundreds of years. ”

As soon as he said this, he was retorted hatefully by the soldiers around him, "Nonsense, if there are no monsters in the mountains, then where do the monsters that attack the towns and villages come from? If there are no monsters, how can God have drought year after year, and there is no harvest in the fields? If there are no monsters, then why will none of the people who have entered the mountains return?"

Mu Qing chuckled: "This place is close to Beiju Luzhou, if there are no demon beasts crossing the border to kill people, it will be a big joke." You think that there is no harvest in this place that the monsters have harmed, but do you know that it is not the monsters that make Nanshan dry for years and years, but the gods who worship every day, every month, and every year!"

The soldier next to him couldn't listen anymore, so he picked up the weapon and hit Mu Qing in the face, leaving a red mark, and his mouth was still shouting: "Let you you monster talk nonsense......" and wanted to continue to start, but was stopped by the tun chief, "Stop, let him continue." At first, after listening to Mu Qing's words, the Tun Chang's expression was also full of anger, but he suddenly calmed down, and stretched out his hand to stop the soldier, his face changed quickly, and everyone's spirit was focused on Mu Qing again, so no one noticed.

Mu Qing turned his face, spat at the mouth, and continued to speak: "You only know that there have been frequent disasters here in the past hundred years, but do you know what this place was like a hundred years ago?" After speaking, he turned his head and looked at everyone, and saw that everyone had no words, so he continued to speak: "A hundred years ago, or nearly eight thousand years, this place was full of wind and rain, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, otherwise there would not have been so many people moving here, let alone building this Nanshan City, if you don't believe it, you can go and look at the local annals." However, a hundred years ago, the land god here was not greedy enough and intended to touch the mountains and forests, which led to the birth of the demon king. Then Heavenly Court sent troops to suppress it and destroy the monsters, and as a result, this place became what it is now, which is really ridiculous. He said ridiculously, but his face was slowly resentful, and after speaking, he spat viciously on the ground.

"The demon king in the mountains is cunning, an auspicious beast, if he wants, he can easily build a country. With him guarding this place, the people have a bumper harvest, and the monsters live in the mountains and forests, and the two get along harmoniously. In order to prevent the people from entering the mountain and causing panic, the demon king deliberately set up a maze array in the mountain, unless there is a mountain monster to lead, once outsiders enter, they will lose their way, and finally obediently go out by themselves. Later, the heavenly soldiers attacked the mountain and destroyed the great array, and then they were left there, neither repairing nor destroying, but someone entered behind them, got lost in the array, and kept wandering until they died of exhaustion. If possible, you can ask the captain to go into the mountain and have a look, maybe there are still ghosts wandering inside. After speaking, he snorted coldly, "You say, is this a monster harming people, or is it heaven saving people!"

Everyone listened, although there was still some disbelief on their faces, but they didn't have those fierce disgust, Mu Qing bypassed the soldiers, looked at the three people who were let go and sat on the ground at this time, remembering the time when they first came out of the mountain, they couldn't help but have some apologies in their eyes: "Uncle Li, Ah Ying, and Erzhu, it was wrong for me to hide my identity at the beginning, but you have always hated monsters, in that case, anyone will open their mouths to admit it." ”

As he spoke, he looked at Li Laohan, remembered the hearty and enthusiastic old man at the beginning, and said to him: "Uncle Li, the land in the village has been dead for hundreds of years, so don't go to worship anymore, I used magic to change the spirit at the beginning; ”

After speaking, he looked at Li Ying again, the little girl who often stuck to him had not come back to her senses at this time, she sat on the ground with confused eyes, staring at herself blankly, remembering that when she left the mountain village, she mustered up the courage to tie the "talisman" on her belt, but now it has already been burned under the Sun family, he smiled bitterly and said to the girl: "A-Ying, don't be sad, your big brother Mu is actually a monster who kills people without blinking, and it is my fault to conceal his identity, but this is not where I belong." You are still young, you will meet more people, and there will be people who love you, love you, care for you, at least, there is more than one around you. I hope you will keep your eyes open in the future and choose the right person that you really like, and at the same time, really like you. ”

After speaking, he looked at Erzhu again, the big man who was a little reckless and impulsive was still lying on the ground in a daze at this time and didn't get up, remembering that because A-Ying, this kid, was making trouble for himself, Mu Qing smiled, and was about to speak, but suddenly paused, and then said viciously to the three of them: "What are you fools doing there, why don't you get out of here, Lao Tzu has already been sentenced to death, and he won't live long, you still want to come and attack, do you want me to die so much?" His mood changed too quickly, and he was stunned by the people around him, and when the chief saw this, he thought that his demonic heart had changed abruptly, and hurriedly waved his hand to let people drag him away.

When the team passed by Li Laohan and the three, the three suddenly heard Mu Qing's subtle voice: "Don't go out of the city in the past few days, it's best to be near the military mansion, beware of someone attacking." After a pause, he said quickly: "This case is over, you'd better leave Nanshan, without the suppression of the demon king, the monsters of the northern land will soon invade." It turned out that he was about to speak just now, and suddenly felt that someone was watching, in fact, he knew that his team had always been concerned, and the secret of Nanshan that he said before was not only to the people around him, but also to those officers in the house. It's just that the divine consciousness just now was very hidden and sudden, if it weren't for the fact that he had been tempered by fire and his divine soul was powerful, he wouldn't have felt it. This divine sense is somewhat familiar, Mu Qing changed his tone just to prevent accidents, and waited until he passed by the three of them to spread the voice with secret arts, telling them to be careful.

Several people have been delayed for a while to speak, and the chief of the tun has no choice but to speed up his pace, and when they leave quickly, the previous divine consciousness has also been withdrawn, leaving only the old and young people who are still sitting on the ground, until Mu Qing and their figures disappeared for a long time, the three of them came back to their senses, stood up and wiped the sweat from their foreheads, patted the dirt off their bodies, and left here a little staggering.
