Judge of the Lamp

Chapter 651
Yelang people don't believe in the underworld, Xu Zhiqiong let them see what the underworld looks like.

The Master of Divine Machines is keen on catching succubi, and Xu Zhiqiong also showed them what a real succubus looks like.

Hong Huaxiao's body has not fully recovered, and he is afraid of the yang energy of the mortal world, so Xu Zhiqiong asks Yang Wu to use the magic spell to build a realm of the underworld in the house.

Hong Huaxiao was in good condition in the underworld, at least [-]% of his combat power had recovered, and he used his charm to control Jiang Shengqun and others.

Yang Wu used the power of the underworld to maximize the combat power of the paper figurines. The 15 people who entered the mansion hardly made any resistance, and were killed by Hong Huaxiao and Yang Wu.

Xu Zhiqiong and Chang Decai were outside the mansion, responsible for collecting heads, and brought five servants along to practice.

Jiang Shengqun took 36 people out of the city, and now only he and two Mohist cultivators are left.

Can't Xu Zhiqiong kill these three people?
can!
He was watching in the dark right now, looking at the bewildered Jiang Shengqun.

Although Jiang Shengqun has a fourth-rank cultivation, as long as Xu Zhiqiong and Chang Decai attack at the same time, they can take his life at any time, let alone the other two Mohists.

But Xu Zhiqiong deliberately left him a way out, this person will still be useful in the future.

Staying near the mansion for a while, Jiang Shengqun didn't even have the courage to collect the corpse, so he took Zhang Shifeng and Bao Huailuo with him, and immediately returned to the Shenji Division.

When he arrived at the Shenji Division, he simply treated the injury. Jiang Shengqun sat silently in his small house all night. At dawn, he burst into tears.

He wanted to make a great contribution, and just last night, he dreamed about when he became a minister, and he was still thinking about where to place the wine for the celebration banquet.

Now, a total of 34 people were folded outside the city, in the hands of Jiang Shengqun.

Committing such a serious mistake, the official position must be lost, but it is hard to say whether this life can be saved.

Zhang Shifeng said with relief: "General Jiang, it's not easy for our brothers to keep this life. Don't think about other things too much. Just take it one step at a time."

Bao Huailuo was older and saw things much more clearly than Zhang Shifeng: "General, this matter cannot be left to fate. We have recovered our life, so we can't lose it in a daze."

Jiang Shengqun, in despair, looked at Bao Huailuo, with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

Bao Huailuo said: "This errand was ordered by our lord to do it. We failed because we were incompetent, but if something happened, we can't let us take care of it all. We have to take care of the lord. Hold on to a lifeline."

Jiang Shengqun sighed: "This life-saving rope is so easy to hold, why should the Lord Chief take care of us?"

"He doesn't care, we didn't do anything wrong!"

Zhang Shifeng was surprised: "So many people have died, how dare you say that we did nothing wrong?"

Bao Huailuo said: "As I said just now, we are indeed incompetent. Your Excellency said we are useless, we have to listen.

But let's say that the servants in the Great Hall of the Divine Sovereign have practiced evil ways, and they did nothing wrong. They colluded with the Charming Demon, isn't that considered evil way?If one day they lure the Charm Monster to the side of the Divine Sovereign, how will this matter end?
We didn't get things done, so we dare not take credit for it, but if it's right, it's right, and we can't plead guilty! "

Hearing this, Jiang Shengqun gained some confidence.

When the time came, Jiang Shengqun bravely went to Shan Zhongming's Diaolou, followed by Zhang Shifeng and Bao Huailuo.

Bao Huailuo reminded later: "Although we are reasonable, we can't speak in a rigid manner. We have to follow the wishes of the chief minister, so that we can explain."

Jiang Shengqun nodded and said: "I have a clear idea, you two can also help me say a few more words."

Entering the main hall, Xu Zhiqiong stepped back and asked Jiang Shengqun, "How was the result?"

Jiang Shengqun hesitated for a while, but before he could speak, tears came down first.

"My lord, my subordinates are incompetent. I didn't expect that the group of eunuchs colluded with the Charms and fought fiercely all night. Unfortunately, 34 of them died in battle."

"Dead in battle?" Xu Zhiqiong pretended to be shocked as he clapped the case, "What do you mean by killed in battle?"

Jiang Shengqun lowered his head and said, "He died in battle outside the city."

"Thirty-four people died!" Xu Zhiqiong yelled angrily, "But did you catch that eunuch?"

Jiang Shengqun shook his head.

Xu Zhiqiong said again: "We can find some physical evidence, right?"

Jiang Shengqun still shook his head.

Xu Zhiqiong shouted angrily: "Jiang Shengqun, you are guilty!"

Just as Jiang Shengqun was about to defend himself, Bao Huailuo lightly touched him from behind.

Mr. Shushou is in a fit of anger, so don't contradict him at this time.

Let's wait for the chief minister to calm down a little bit before discussing.

Xu Zhiqiong got up and paced back and forth in the main hall.

Jiang Shengqun's face was pale, and it was difficult to catch his breath.

Zhang Shifeng bit his lip, thinking that Jiang Shengqun should be dead, but he didn't know if he could get away.

Bao Huailuo was quite calm. After all, the chief minister was inseparable from this matter, so he should be able to leave a way for them to survive.

Standing in front of Jiang Shengqun, Xu Zhiqiong asked in a low voice, "You said you were defeated by Charm Monster?"

Jiang Shengqun nodded.

Xu Zhiqiong stepped forward and kicked Jiang Shengqun: "What kind of ability does Charming Demon have? It can kill Hao Erlang, my magician!"

"This Charm, this Charm is..." Jiang Shengqun didn't know how to explain.

The Charms that Shan Zhongming had captured before were all weak women who either fell into prostitution or rumors, and they were caught for any reason.

And the Charming Monster they encountered couldn't be compared with those women.

Jiang Shengqun was worried about angering Shan Zhongming, but he didn't dare to speak out.

Bao Huailuo is sober at the moment, this matter must be made clear, if not, the nature of the matter will change.

"My lord, the charmer we met last night is real." Bao Huailuo said.

Xu Zhiqiong shouted: "What do you mean by that? Could it be that the Charm I met before was a fake?"

Bao Huailuo didn't hesitate, kowtowed his head, and continued to explain: "The Charm Monster last night has a cultivation level, and he cultivates his body."

Shan Zhongming should be able to understand this sentence, the Charm Monster I met last night is really cultivated, she is not an ordinary woman you caught.

Xu Zhiqiong looked at Bao Huailuo, and found that this person had a calm mind, which was also useful.

"It seems that you really met a ruthless hand, otherwise you wouldn't have killed so many people." Xu Zhiqiong's tone softened a little, Jiang Shengqun stopped his tears, and Bao Huailuo breathed a sigh of relief.

After being silent for a while, Xu Zhiqiong asked, "Who else knows about this besides you?"

Hearing this, Bao Huailuo was completely relieved, the chief Shan Shu was planning to suppress the matter.

The secret of Jiang Shengqun's previous plan was unknown to anyone except Shan Zhongming. Shan Shushou really wanted to calm the matter down, so he should have full confidence.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Shengqun replied, "Vice Shushu Lu, you should know something inside."

Bao Huailuo's heart sank immediately, he didn't expect Jiang Shengqun to be so unreliable in his work!
Xu Zhiqiong frowned and said, "Why did you tell Vice Shushu Lu the matter?"

Jiang Shengqun hastily explained: "My subordinates didn't inform me. It was Deputy Chief Lu who heard the news and knew that the chief minister was going to send someone to arrest the important criminals, so he took the initiative to ask his subordinates."

"How do you answer?"

"The subordinates lied to him that the lord chief sent me out of the city to capture the Charm."

Bao Huailuo was taken aback, this is good, he hit the right spot.

Xu Zhiqiong sighed and said: "Forget it, since I really met the Charm, it's okay to let him know, about the matter of the servant, don't tell others, just say that you waited for a night of bloody battle, but failed to capture the Charm."

The three said they were right, and Xu Zhiqiong told Jiang Shengqun: "Give those 34 people more rewards, and silence their family members. This matter cannot be spread outside the public, especially not to the Palace of the Gods. Do you understand? "

Jiang Shengqun kowtowed repeatedly, thanked him repeatedly, and carefully exited Diaolou with his two subordinates.

Back at Jiang Shengqun's hut, Zhang Shifeng showed a smile: "General Jiang, I didn't expect this to pass like this."

Jiang Shengqun remained silent, Bao Huailuo sighed and said, "The matter hasn't passed yet, Chief Shan wants to keep it a secret, I'm afraid Vice Chief Lu will reveal the matter."

Zhang Shifeng was surprised: "Shake it out, what good will it do him?"

Bao Huailuo said impatiently: "There is only one seat for the chief, what do you think is good for him? In short, we are all protected by the chief, and we will follow the orders of the chief."

Jiang Shengqun said: "The three of us have to keep our mouths shut. Don't say anything that shouldn't be said. If the slightest bit of news leaks out, I'm afraid that the single clerk will not be able to save our lives."

……

After sending these three people away, Xu Zhiqiong continued to check the files related to Yuan Chengfeng.

Regarding Yuan Chengfeng's deeds, the records are quite detailed. He joined the Shenji Division at the age of 30, started as a school lieutenant, and was promoted to a general at the age of 40.

After becoming a general, Yuan Chengfeng made great achievements repeatedly, and in three years, he arrested many wild practitioners.

What's even more rare is that he killed an assassin who sneaked into the hall of the gods. This feat allowed Yuan Chengfeng to be directly promoted to Shangqing.

After becoming Shangqing, Yuan Chengfeng made many achievements. At the age of 56, he defeated Gongsun Wen and was promoted to Deputy Shuwei.

At this time, Yuan Chengfeng was enjoying the spring breeze, but died of illness not long after.

According to Shan Zhongming's confession, Yuan Chengfeng was poisoned to death by him.

The dossier described Yuan Chengfeng's deeds in detail, but he didn't mention much about Yuan Chengfeng's cultivation base. It only said that he was a practitioner of the two-life profound way, and that he was extremely good at magic circles.

Xu Zhiqiong didn't gain much from the dossier, and at dusk, he left the Shenji Division and returned to the capital.

According to the custom, Xu Zhiqiong stayed in Dongkuayuan for a while, briefly asked about Han Di's condition today, and after knowing that nothing serious happened, he went to Yuyao Palace to take another look.

Unexpectedly, something serious happened to Yuyao Palace.

Lin Qianniang looked at Xu Zhiqiong with red eyes and said, "Where have you been? Why don't you see anyone every day!"

Qianniang has the most gentle temperament and rarely complains to Xu Zhiqiong. Today's situation is indeed very serious.

Xu Zhiqiong arrived at the main courtyard and entered Liang Yuyao's bedroom, and saw Liang Yuyao sitting silently in the bedroom without saying a word.

Xu Zhiqiong stepped forward and asked, "Your Highness, what happened?"

Liang Yuyao looked blank and did not respond.

Xu Zhiqiong asked several times, but Liang Yuyao seemed to have lost her soul, and there was no response.

Qianniang said with red eyes: "During the day, Lu Wang Hong Zhenkang came to pay a visit. The man spoke very aggressively. The princess couldn't help it, so she asked me to find you.
I couldn't find you, so I came back to answer the princess, but I didn't expect that Hong Zhenkang had already left, but the princess became like this! "

Xu Zhiqiong pushed back the others, and stepped forward to grab Liang Yuyao's hand.

The judge is very sensitive to the soul, he can feel that Liang Yuyao's soul is still there.

Xu Zhiqiong asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, can you hear my voice?"

Liang Yuyao didn't make a sound, but her hand held Xu Zhiqiong's tightly.

Two lines of tears fell from the corners of her eyes, and she knew whose hand this was.
