Judge of the Lamp

Chapter 569 Don't You Just Want to Renege on Your Account?
Jiao Liewei, the ghost emperor of Zhongtu, whenever this name was mentioned, Zhong Jianxue's expression was full of respect.

But judging from the Ghost Emperor's attitude, Xu Zhiqiong had basically guessed his position.

The ghost emperor had the same standpoint as Du Chunze, but because of the occasion at that time, he did not kill Zhong Jianxue and handed over the matter to Du Chunze.

Du Chunze also failed to kill Zhong Jianxue, so Zhong Jianxue was lucky enough to go to the Department of Punishment.

Du Chunze was worried that the matter would be exposed, so he directly led people to forcibly break into the evil department.

He knew that there is no slaughter in the official way of the Great Proclamation, and the doctor who rewards goodness in the capital has no combat power, so he dared to be so tyrannical.

It's just that he was unlucky today, and met Xu Zhiqiong who was even more tyrannical than him.

But if the opponent is Jiao Liewei, the ghost emperor, Xu Zhiqiong has to consider the capital of his tyranny.

Before dealing with Jiao Liewei, Xu Zhiqiong had to verify some things, whether some things Long Xiulian said were true or not.

"Brother Zhong, I heard that our two Taoist sects use the same kind of meritorious deeds, both of which are golden beans. Is this true or not?"

Zhong Jianxue nodded and said: "The two Taoist sects indeed use the same kind of meritorious service. When you go to the Hall of Yama, you should know a rule. Between the judge and the prison, you can't pass things hand in hand. This rule is for To prevent private giving and receiving,
Prisoners can tamper with the vouchers, counting more meritorious service for the judge, and the judge will draw a percentage of the extra meritorious service to the prisoner. This kind of thing was not uncommon in the past. After the establishment of this rule, there are fewer similar things. a lot of. "

Xu Zhiqiong asked in amazement: "Does this rule work? I don't pay bribes in the Yan Luo Temple, I just go to the prison to give gifts in private."

Zhong Jianxue shook his head and said, "The jailer can't leave the Hall of Yama easily. Brother Ma should be familiar with Shi Cheng. When he was in jail, did Brother Ma meet him elsewhere?"

It is true to say that, when Shi Cheng was in prison, Xu Zhiqiong only saw him in the Hall of Yama.

When Xu Zhiqiong bought his first servant from Shi Cheng, that is, Yang Wu, Shi Cheng had already been promoted to the capital.

After Nie Gui'an was promoted to prison, it seemed that he never left the Hall of Yama.

It seems that the management of Ming Dao is much stricter than that of Judgment Dao. Although Judgment Dao also has regulations, Tuiguan and Yiyilang cannot leave Judgment Pavilion and Yilangyuan, but there are many people who take advantage of loopholes.

"Brother Zhong, I heard from Long Xiulian that he bought the gluttonous remnant soul from Du Yanjun and sold it to Emperor Zhaoxing. Is this true or false?"

Zhong Jianxue nodded and said: "It's true, Du Chunze has not only done this business, he also sold the gluttonous body, and sold it to Xiao Songting. In the early years, I heard that he also sold Qiongqi's remnant soul."

Poor and strange remnant soul.

Xu Zhiqiong was alert for a while, he thought of the monster in his body.

Although it is impossible to determine the identity of this monster, but I always feel that it has a great connection with Qiongqi.

"Can you determine when it was sold and to whom?"

Zhong Jianxue sighed: "This matter is too long ago, but it still needs to be verified."

It's too old!

Could it be such a coincidence!It just coincides with the time when Qiongqi's remnant soul ravaged the Wang'an River, right?
Back then, Master, Dean Lin, and Wu Qianhu fought hard by the Wang'an River. Master was seriously injured, and Lin Tianzheng and Wu Xu almost died. This incident also implicated me and my mother. Could it be that Du Yanjun did it?
Did Long Xiulian intervene in this business?
Seeing Xu Zhiqiong lost in thought, Zhong Jianxue said: "Brother Ma, Zhong has troubled you this time, please take me to the mortal world, I have another place to go, and you just pretend you haven't seen me."

Xu Zhiqiong frowned and said, "Where can you go in the mortal world?"

Zhong Jianxue said: "Since you are a soul seducer, you have your own place to stay in the mortal world. Brother Ma, don't worry."

Xu Zhiqiong shook his head and said, "If the Ghost Emperor is involved, I'm afraid your place in the mortal world will not be safe."

"Dijun...isn't that kind of person." Zhong Jianxue lowered his head, there were some things he could figure out, but he didn't want to admit.

Xu Zhiqiong sighed: "I'm afraid Zhonglang's Court is not safe. It's hard to say whether the Ghost Emperor can pass through the Liangjie Prefecture. You and I can go back to the Marquis's Mansion."

Zhong Jianxue shook his head and said, "Brother Ma shouldn't have been involved in this matter."

"Brother Zhong thinks too much. This matter is related to the judge's way. I can't get away from it. It's not too late. Now let's go to the Marquis's Mansion."

……

Back at the Marquis's Mansion, Xia Hu glared at Zhong Jianxue angrily. It happened to be snowing heavily, and Xia Hu was in a hurry to do business and didn't bother to care about it. She hurried to Qiaotouwa City with a large bundle of paper umbrellas.

Xia Hu really knows how to do business. In recent years, Goulan tile market has a lot of customers. It coincides with the alternation of matinee and night shows. The guests who go home buy an umbrella, and the guests who go to the night show also buy umbrellas. There are more than [-] umbrellas. The paper umbrellas sold out in an instant.

Seeing that the business was going well, Xia Hu found a secluded place, went to the Zhonglang Courtyard, and brought another [-]. Before he started shouting, a man in his fifties came to the stall and said to Xia Hu: "I want all these umbrellas."

Xia Hu was taken aback for a moment, and looked up at the man. He was short, thin and inconspicuous.

But his appearance is special, his beard and hair are yellow, his eyes are green, he is not a Xuanren.

"Guest officer, do you want all thirty paper umbrellas?" Xia Hu confirmed.

The guest nodded: "This umbrella is exquisitely made, I like it very much."

With a smile on her face, Xia Hu felt a little wary in her heart.

The last time Tao Huayuan bought all the paper umbrellas from her, afterward Tao Huayuan came to plot against her.

There is nothing special about this paper umbrella, so if you buy so many at once, you must have some extra intentions.

"A paper umbrella costs sixty-two renminbi, and thirty umbrellas cost more than one tael."

The guest took out two pieces of broken silver, which weighed more than two taels, and handed it to Xia Hu, saying, "There's no need to look for it."

Xia Hu collected the money, thanked her, and quickly closed the stall.

After passing through two deep alleys and reaching the main street, Xia Hu always felt that someone was following behind her.

Is it the guest?
Hard to say.

The opponent's footsteps were very light and his movements were fast, Xia Hu couldn't tell the difference for a while.

After going around for two streets, but still not getting rid of the man, Xia Hu was a little worried, walked to a secluded place, touched the seal of Zhonglang, and went straight back to the Zhonglang Hall of the Punishment Division.

After arriving at the Zhonglang Hall, he sat down for a while and explained some things to the servants. Xia Hu then went to the Changshi Mansion and returned to the Marquis Mansion through the Chengfeng Building.

After meeting Xu Zhiqiong, Xia Hu described the incident, Xu Zhiqiong was quite surprised.

There are very few people who can follow the sixth-rank judges. Apart from their colleagues, I am afraid that there are only eunuchs.

Judging from Xia Hu's description of appearance, the other party seems to be Tu Nu.

Does Tu Nu have eunuch Taoist practitioners?

It seems very few.

Could it be said that it is the judge from Tu Nu?

……

In Xia Hu's Zhonglang Hall, the Tunu man walked around, then put on a mask, and wandered around in the Department of Punishment.

He walked leisurely all the way, and greeted passing judges from time to time, but no one in the capital punishment department knew him.

After walking almost everywhere, he came to the three gates of the Punishment Division and walked towards the Yin Division.

……

At noon the next day, Lu Yanyou called Xu Zhiqiong with a long history order.

Xu Zhiqiong thought that the Ghost Emperor was coming, so he quickly gathered up all kinds of weapons and rushed to the Division of Punishment.

When he reached the gate of Changshi Mansion, Xu Zhiqiong heard familiar noises.

"You guys are too bullying. Yesterday's meritorious service will not be honored, and today I will not be honored. If I don't get the meritorious service today, I will live in your yard and never leave!"

Xu Zhiqiong came in and saw that it was Lang Zhongxue again.

Why is he here again?
Xu Zhiqiong stepped forward and said, "Didn't yesterday's meritorious service be honored to you? Why did you come here again?"

Lang Zhongxue said angrily: "Yesterday was yesterday, and today is today. I also earned this crime by rewarding good deeds. Why do you want to admit it?"

Xu Zhiqiong took over the crime and weighed it, and he really was a soulless horn.

Looking at the evil mirror, this crime did not come easily.

Lang Zhongxue single-handedly entered a mountain stronghold and forced a group of bandits to release the three women who had been robbed.

Due to Lang Zhongxue's deterrence, the leader of the thieves dispersed the more than [-] thieves under his command, and each of them found another way to make a living. Because of this kind deed, the crime karma on the head of the thieves was reduced by two inches.

Another two inches!

Another four hundred meritorious service.

The crime karma is genuine, although it hurts, but Xu Zhiqiong will never renege on his debts, this person is really a leader in Taoism, and he cannot be chilled.

"Let's go, redeem your meritorious service!" Xu Zhiqiong led Lang Zhongxue to the three doors.

On the way, Lang Zhongxue asked: "Your name is Ma Shangfeng, right? What kind of official are you? If I don't get merit from others, how can I get it from you?"

Xu Zhiqiong smiled, thinking about how to explain it to him.

Looking out through the three doors, on the road leading to the underworld, a tall and thin man, surrounded by more than a hundred people, slowly walked towards the gate of the evil division.

Xu Zhiqiong was startled, and quickly knocked on the order to punish the evil son.

The sound of knocking was rapid, Lu Yanyou knew something was wrong, and brought a group of judges to the three doors.

More than a hundred meditation practitioners have already entered the Punishment Department. No one knows the tall and thin man in the middle, but they know Du Yanjun.

Du Chunze stood beside the tall and thin man with a very respectful expression.

Who can make Du Yanjun so respectful.

You don't need to ask, you can guess it.

This man is the ghost emperor of Zhongtu, Jiao Liewei.

Jiao Liewei glanced at the judges and said expressionlessly, "Who is Ma Shangfeng?"

Xu Zhiqiong smiled lightly: "It's me."

"It was you who injured my subordinate Pei Hongru?"

Xu Zhiqiong nodded: "I did it."

"Why did you shoot and hurt people?"

"In the judge's realm, if you speak rudely to the judge, he asks for it!"

Jiao Liewei's brows suddenly trembled, and the ground paved with bricks and stones under his feet suddenly became pitch black, and within a hundred feet, there was a cloud of wind.

The third-grade skill of the underworld, swaying demons!
This is not a magic spell, this is a serious third-grade skill.

Jiao Liewei, the ghost emperor of Middle Earth, brought a corner of the underworld to the yang world with his third-grade skills.

The corners of Xu Zhiqiong's eyes twitched slightly, the battle was going to be tricky.

Within the scope of the underworld, Xu Zhiqiong could not be Jiao Liewei's opponent.

And being blocked by the underworld, many of the judge's escape techniques cannot be used.

There were more than [-] judges present, if Jiao Liewei really did something here, few of them would be able to leave alive.

Jiao Liewei looked at Xu Zhiqiong and said, "Ma Shangfeng, tell me, is this the boundary of your courtship?"

Xu Zhiqiong didn't answer, his eyes were fixed on Jiao Liewei.

Jiao Liewei's first target must be Xu Zhiqiong, there is no suspense about this.

Everyone thinks that I am a fifth-rank cultivation base and won't guard against my eyes.

No matter how bad the situation is, as long as you can use the turning point technique, the situation will definitely have a chance to be reversed.

Can't be distracted, absolutely can't be distracted, and can't leave Jiao Liewei for a moment.

Jiao Liewei said in a deep voice: "I asked you, but couldn't you hear me? I asked you, is this still the judge's territory?"

A gust of wind came, and a group of judges instinctively took a step back.

Xu Zhiqiong didn't retreat, it was just a dark wind, not Yang Wu's pure Yin Qi, nothing to be afraid of.

Jiao Liewei's brows trembled again, and he was about to attack Xu Zhiqiong when he suddenly heard someone cough behind him: "Dijun Jiao, why do you do this to a junior? I'll just pay you a gift on their behalf."

The judges looked back, but saw a thin middle-aged man walking over.

Yellow beard and hair, green pupils, isn't this the Tunu man who followed Xia Hu yesterday?

The man calmly walked in front of Jiao Liewei, Jiao Liewei clasped his fists and said: "Zai Yue Zhong, it's been a long time."

This thin and small man is Yue Junshan, the dictator of Tunu Kingdom.

Yue Junshan smiled and said, "Emperor Jiao, it's rare to see him, why did he lose his temper today?"

Jiao Liewei looked at Yue Junshan and said: "You Ma Shangfeng, the fifth-rank judge of Taoism, harbored Zhong Jianxue, a traitor from my Taoism, and injured my subordinate Pei Hongru. His subordinates came to me to complain. I have to seek justice for him."

Yue Junshan looked back: "I am Yue Junshan, the autocratic magistrate of Tunu Kingdom in the north. May I ask you, is what Emperor Jiao said true?"

The autocratic slaughter of Tunu?

What is he here for?

Everyone looked at each other, but no one answered, Yue Junshan turned around and said to Jiao Liewei: "Emperor Jiao, there may be a slight misunderstanding about this matter, let me put it aside for a while, and make a decision after finding out the truth."

Jiao Liewei frowned and said, "Master Yue Zhong, Daxuan is not under your jurisdiction, so why do you meddle in your own business?"

Yue Junshan smiled and said: "The emperor's words are wrong. Since it is a matter of my Taoist sect, it is not an idle matter. Yue must take care of it to the end."

Jiao Liewei sneered: "Let's talk about the judge of Daxuan, would you like to let you take care of it?"

Yue Junshan looked back at everyone.

This is a matter of life and death.

From the moment Jiao Liewei summoned the underworld, the judges had already lost more than half of their lives.

Now with the help of Taoist masters, everyone is naturally unambiguous.

Wang Anmeng said: "If Master Zhong Zai is willing to help, we will naturally be willing."

Wang Yan'er said: "We are all in the same family."

Lu Yanyou said: "Since Yue Zhongzai is here, please give us justice."

Xu Zhiqiong remained silent.

What a coincidence that this Yue Zhongzai came here.

How is it so coincidental?

Yue Junshan coughed lightly, and said to Jiao Liewei: "Jiao Dijun, you have also seen that we are one family, I must..."

Before he finished speaking, Lang Zhongxue quit.

He growled and said, "What are you doing! Singing opera? Isn't it just four hundred meritorious service? I can't tell you clearly! I'll go to another house to redeem it.

You got two groups of people to sing the double reed, just to repay my four hundred meritorious deeds, how shameless you are! "

collaborate with each other!
Xu Zhiqiong looked at Lang Zhongxue and couldn't help laughing.

　Ladies and gentlemen, the salad is late!
