Liaozhai: A scholar should draw a sword

Chapter 129 The Frog at the Bottom of the Well
In the courtroom, Ye Chen frowned, and shouted at Zhou Yu: "You said that Mr. Chen was bewitching the patient, what evidence do you have? Besides, what good will it do him?"

Zhou Yu smiled and said, "My lord, it's better to let Chen Langzhong speak for himself..."

Hearing this, Ye Chen couldn't help being stunned, which song is this singing?
Chen Langzhong was also stunned, and then his heart tightened, secretly calling out that something was wrong.

Before, he failed to cast a Gu on Zhou Yu at such a close distance, so he guessed that this opponent was not easy.

Is it possible to use some method against him to force him to tell the truth?
Seek a hammer!

Zhou Yu walked up to Langzhong Chen, knelt down, raised his hand and patted Langzhong Chen, and said with a smile, "Why don't you tell the truth in front of adults."

This sentence was an extremely common sentence, and the others didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it.

But for Chen Langzhong, it was uncomfortable.

Because Zhou Yu's slap made his whole body tremble. Immediately afterwards, Zhou Yu's voice echoed in his mind over and over again, and it possessed an irresistible magical power...

After a while, Chen Langzhong really started to explain everything.

"There are indeed Gu worm eggs in the pill..."

As soon as he opened his mouth, there was an explosion in the courtroom, especially those who had taken the pills lost control and rushed towards Langzhong Chen.

Fortunately, Zhou Yu stopped him in time.

"Don't be impatient, everyone, wait for him to finish his explanation..."

"My lord, my lord, he is using demon magic, there is no way Chen Langzhong is such a person..."

Seeing that the situation was not right, Qin Shou started to yell loudly.

Ye Chen shouted angrily: "Shut up!"

Although this guy is a stupid official, but he is old enough to earn almost what he should have earned. If there is no accident, he will retire and return home in two or three years.

Therefore, he doesn't want to lose his life at the end of the festival.

He still knows a little bit about Gu. If Chen Langzhong really put Gu on the people in the medicine, once the incident broke out, could he get away with it?
For Qin Xiaohua, he has to risk losing his official position or even going to jail, which is not worth it.

Next, Langzhong Chen continued to confess his crimes...

Now, the scandals of the Qin family were exposed one by one.The father and son of the Qin family knew all about Chen Langzhong's details, but in order to make money, they unconscionably publicized Chen Langzhong's miracle doctor everywhere, deceiving many people to come to "cure diseases".

In order to stabilize the Qin family father and son, Chen Langzhong vowed that no one would die. He has the records of the patients, and he will find a way to get the Gu back when the time comes.

That is to say, but for a person who is used as a living Gu, even if the Gu is taken out of the body, the vitality will be greatly injured and the lifespan will be shortened.

Chen Lang was well aware of this, and besides, he didn't plan to stay in Liuhe County for a long time, because accidents would definitely happen after a long time.

While Chen Langzhong was explaining, the master was also recording quickly.

After the explanation was over, Chen Langzhong was asked to sign and make a deposit.

"My lord, you have to decide for the little people..."

"It's no wonder that my illnesses always come and go, and I spent tens of taels of silver..."

"My lord, the father and son of the Qin family have lost their conscience and harmed the common people. Please punish them severely, my lord!"

Ye Chen couldn't help frowning when he saw the people who followed him shouting Qu Qu.

If it's just dealing with Mr. Chen, it's fine, he can pronounce the sentence in court, but when it comes to the Qin family father and son, he can't make up his mind for a while.

After all, Qin Xiaohua is his concubine, and if this incident gets serious, he will inevitably get a little dusty.

So, I subconsciously glanced at the master...

The master thought for a while, and said in a low voice: "Why don't you arrest him first and see the situation before we talk about it."

This is also a routine commonly used by the government: dragging words.

Therefore, Ye Chen slapped the gavel and shouted: "Come here, put Qin Shou and Qin Shou in prison for trial."

"My lord, what should we do with the Gu?"

"Yeah, let this guy untangle us..."

Ye Chen came to his senses just now, this matter can't be sloppy, if those who have been infected by the voodoo attack one by one, the consequences will be disastrous.

At this time, Chen Langzhong had already come to his senses. Hearing this, he thought that the opportunity had come, and hurriedly said: "My lord, the villain can make up for my merits. As long as the adult allows the villain to be free, the villain is willing to relieve the gu."

Ye Chen's face darkened, waiting to be scolded.

But the master listened to him and said in a low voice: "My lord, Gu is quite evil, none of us can solve it. If something happens, I'm afraid it will be bad for your lord."

"This……"

Ye Chen couldn't help frowning, and subconsciously glanced at Zhou Yu.

"Hehe, my lord, you just need to arrest people, it's just a matter of lifting your hands."

"Stop pretending here..."

Seeing that his only chance was about to be lost, Chen Langzhong couldn't help being furious, and he didn't care to hide anything, and yelled at Zhou Yu.

"You can see that there is Gu in the pill, but it doesn't mean that you will be able to remove the Gu.

You have to know that everyone's tricks are different. Once the method is wrong, not only will you not be able to solve the Gu, but you will even kill someone. "

Sure enough, Chen Langzhong's words had an effect, several patients in the hall pleaded for him one by one...

This is also human nature, although they hate Chen Langzhong, but if Chen Langzhong is imprisoned or even beheaded, who will relieve them?
"Everyone, don't be fooled by him, detoxification...it's really not that difficult..."

As soon as the voice fell, Zhou Yu's momentum changed, his clothes moved without wind, and at the same time he raised his hand and popped out several fingers in succession.

"what……"

Several patients in the hall screamed and fell to the ground, rolling and writhing.

Ye Chen was startled, subconsciously shrank slightly, and said in a trembling voice, "You...you are so brave, you dare to commit murder in court..."

Zhou Yu smiled: "Don't be impatient, my lord, I'm just helping them out."

In fact, Chen Langzhong is not just talking big and threatening, there is no fixed way to dispel the Gu, if you do not know how to cast the Gu and forcibly dispel the Gu, it is easy to cause problems.

For example, being backlashed by Gu insects, causing serious injuries or even death to the host.

This is the same as the unique poisons prepared by some poison masters in the Jianghu.

However, Chen Langzhong was not really a master at using Gu, and Zhou Yu could easily sense the location of the Gu insects in the patient's body.

Now, Zhou Yu's use of grand energy has reached a level of proficiency, just like a cultivator using true energy.

He doesn't know how to solve Gu, and he is lazy to study Gu, but he doesn't know how to solve Gu, which doesn't mean there is no way to take Gu.

"You...you actually used your true energy to forcefully destroy the Gu worms?"

At this time, Chen Langzhong finally came to his senses, looked at Zhou Yu in disbelief and roared.

After all, he is considered an old Jianghu, and most people dare not use the method of forcibly dispelling Gu with true energy, because the risk is too great.

First, it is necessary to accurately lock the position of the Gu worm, and second, it is necessary to accurately control the power of true energy.

If the strength is too small, it won't be able to trap the Gu worms, but it will make the Gu worms struggle to death, madly biting the host's internal organs.

If the power is too great, it may cause the victim to be unable to bear it and the internal organs may be shattered.

The point is, Zhou Yu not only dispelled the Gu violently, but also dispelled several people at the same time, how could Chen Langzhong not be surprised?

"Frog at the bottom of the well!"

Zhou Yu smiled mockingly at Chen Langzhong.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of vomiting in the courtroom.

"It stinks!"

A group of yamen servants who were relatively close hurriedly covered their noses.

"Hahaha, I haven't felt this comfortable in a long time..."

After vomiting, Wu shopkeeper of the food store raised his hand and wiped his mouth, looking a little smug.

Others felt similarly, and each of them felt much better.

Chen Langzhong's face was pale... He finally understood why his opponent would ridicule him as a frog in a well.

He thought that Zhou Yu used his true energy to forcibly kill the Gu worms, but it turned out not to be the case, because the Gu worms were still wriggling in the dirt that these people spit out just now.

Obviously, this method is more sophisticated.

Compared with killing Gu insects in the host body, this method is more subtle in controlling the power, and it is also much safer for the host body.

"Look, my lord, what they spit out are the Gu worms that Chen Langzhong used the pills to inject into their bodies.

With these Gu worms in their bodies, how can their illnesses be cured? "

"Bastard, I killed you!"

Shopkeeper Wu looked angry and rushed to Langzhong Chen and kicked him vigorously.

"Come here, detain these two people first, and clean up the courtroom."

"Yes!"

A group of yamen servants acted separately, the detainees detain the detainees, and the cleaners clean up.

At this time, Ye Chen couldn't help but got up and walked down the courtroom, cupping his hands at Zhou Yu: "I didn't expect you to be a real expert. If you were rude before, please forgive me."

"My lord, you don't need to be too polite. Next, please find a way to inform the people who have taken Chen Langzhong's pills to go to the gate of the county government office tomorrow afternoon to relieve Gu.

Finally, I would like to advise adults again, don't make big mistakes because of small things, otherwise it will be too late to regret! "

"Farewell!"

After speaking, Zhou Yu turned around and left.

Looking at Zhou Yu's back, Ye Chen's eyes kept changing...

"My lord, my lord..."

The master stepped forward and called several times in succession before Ye Chen came back to his senses.

"Master, what do you think this person is from?"

"This... From the perspective of the villain, this person has a kind of refined style, and a kind of bearing that ordinary people can't match.

You might say he is a scholar, but the ability he has shown is surprising; if you say he is a man in the rivers and lakes, he doesn't feel quite like..."

Ye Chen said angrily, "Why do you feel like you've been talking nonsense for a long time?"

The master was ashamed: "My lord, this person is indeed a bit mysterious, and the villain dare not speculate. But the villain can be sure that this person is definitely not an ordinary person or a person in the world.

From his eyes, the villain can feel a calm, even condescending look. "

"Well, what you said is on point. In fact, I also feel this way. I always feel that I can't play awe-inspiring in front of him..."

At this time, the master hesitated for a while, and couldn't help but said: "My lord, I don't know if I should say something or not?"

"Go to the inner hall and talk."

"Yes!"

In the inner hall, Ye Chen glanced at the master and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it."

"My lord, I always feel that the person before me is a bit mysterious, and even has some background.

The words he said before he left, in the eyes of a villain, should be a reminder or even..."

"Even what? Don't hesitate."

"Even... a warning."

"Warning? You mean, he is quietly warning me?"

The master sighed: "My lord, I have been with you for fifteen years. Now, both my lord and my little man are old. If you were an ordinary wealthy family, you would have already enjoyed the blessings of your children and grandchildren at home. "

Having said this, Ye Chen was also a little emotional, and couldn't help but patted the master on the shoulder: "You have been with me for many years and have always been loyal, how can I not know it?

Don't worry, this officer will not forget you. When the time comes to return to your hometown, you will be well-off, have a family and a job, and enjoy the good life of being served by others. "

"Thank you, sir!" The master cupped his hands gratefully, and then said: "It's just that what the Qin family did this time is really too much..."

Unexpectedly, as soon as I said this, a figure rushed into the inner hall. Unexpectedly, the master came back to his senses, and slapped him across the face: "You old bastard, what nonsense are you talking about? Our Qin family offended you?"

The person who came was Qin Xiaohua.

She has already received the news that her younger brother has been imprisoned, how can she pay it off?

He was full of anger and was about to come to Ye Chen to settle accounts, but when he came, he heard the master mentioned the Qin family, and immediately vented his evil anger on the master.

This slap was so hard that the master's face became red and swollen, and blood flowed from his nose.

However, that Qin Xiaohua still didn't feel relieved, instead she said convincingly: "The old man is so thick-skinned, it hurt my hand."

Master held his nose and said vaguely: "Yes... I'm sorry..."

"Hmph, to be a servant, you must have the consciousness of a servant, and don't speak ill of your master behind your back."

"Yes, the villain remembers."

Only then did Qin Xiaohua turn her head around, and said to Ye Chen, "Master, I heard..."

"Crack, bitch!"

Unexpectedly, as soon as Qin Xiaohua opened her mouth, Ye Chen also slapped her across the face.

"Master, you... you actually beat yourself up as a concubine?"

Qin Xiaohua covered her face, eyes full of disbelief.

After all, she was so spoiled on weekdays, that's why she became so pampered, even the wife of the main house didn't pay attention to her.

"Beating you is still light. Now that you don't know how to avoid suspicion, you still dare to favor your mother's family. Do you know what your father and your younger brother have done?"

"Master, don't listen to other people's nonsense..."

"Go away, the master has something important to talk about now, and I don't have time to chat with you about family affairs."

"master……"

"I'll say it one last time, get out!"

Ye Chen was really angry.

If Qin Xiaohua beat up a yamen servant, he wouldn't care, at worst, he would reprimand her.However, this woman should never have slapped Master.

And still in front of him.

Where does this put his face?

The important thing is that when he was the county magistrate, the master has been by his side all the time, and he has been loyal and dedicated to him for more than ten years.

If he doesn't care, it will definitely chill the master's heart.

Seeing that the master was really angry, Qin Xiaohua was finally afraid, and hurriedly cried: "Master, it's my fault, I'm going back to my room to reflect."

After speaking, he walked away in despair.

As soon as she left, the master couldn't help but said to Ye Chen with a guilty face: "It's all the villain's fault, which caused the adult husband and wife to be at odds."

"No, it's none of your business, although you and I are master and servant, but many times, I have already regarded you as my family and my brother.

My lord, I can change a woman at any time, but it is not easy to find a faithful person like you. "

"grown ups……"

The master couldn't help but burst into tears, weeping with gratitude.

This is also Ye Chen's cleverness, he knows how to win people's hearts, and this is also the reason why the master has been following him wholeheartedly.

"Okay, don't mention this woman anymore, let's continue the previous topic..."

"Yes, sir."
