My martial arts rely on solving cases

Chapter 270 Fairy descends to earth
"Thank you, sir!" The shopkeeper surnamed Cui was overjoyed and quickly bowed down.

"How can this be? Our people were killed in vain?" Suddenly, a group of fishermen exploded.

"If you say you don't pay, you won't pay, no, Zeng arrested the head, let's go to the county government, let's go to the county magistrate to uphold justice."

"It's useless to find the magistrate of the county." Catcher Zeng raised his head, cleared his throat with a light cough, "This lord, is my lord who is the general judge of Lingxi Mansion. If he says he won't pay, he won't pay!"

All the fishermen looked at Su Qing dumbfounded.

At first, although I heard Zeng Butou called Master Su Qing, I thought it was just a county magistrate. After all, Su Qing is too young. How can such a young official be so high?

But I didn't expect that it turned out to be a one-official judge, and for this group of people, he was a high-ranking official.

"But, according to the rules..."

"What rules?" Su Qing shouted displeased, "the agreement of the rules must meet at least two conditions, conform to the law, and conform to public order and good customs. Why should we abide by the rules that don't even make sense and cannot be right or wrong?

You and others should disperse immediately and withdraw from the river. From now on, fishing boats will not be allowed to enter the canal. If you dare to commit a crime knowingly, you will be severely punished. "

Su Qing shouted loudly, and the voice went away like thunder rolling from the sky.Photographed by Su Qing's official prestige and aura, the fishermen didn't dare to refuse to let go, and hurriedly left with their boats.

"By the way, what are those people who were killed? There are so many merchant ships coming and going, so they can't take such a big risk to go fishing?"

"In order to salvage a boatload of grain that capsized and sank to the bottom of the river a few days ago, that boatload of grain cost thousands of silver."

"It's not easy. Although the weather is good this year, the lives of those of us who live on the river are not much better, and we are barely hungry. Zhang Han and the others also hope to make their family's life better before taking risks. Who knew that they would die It’s all in vain.”

"Oh! What about the wives and children in their family..."

Hearing the common people's discussions in her ears, Su Qing felt a little sad in her heart.But if it is wrong, it is wrong. If the wind rises, more people will cross the red line and enter the Luojiang waterway.

Today they can capsize a boat, and tomorrow they can do it for a fat fish.

So even if she couldn't bear it in her heart, Su Qing could only be cruel.

The channel became clear again, and the cargo ships began to sail slowly again.

Shopkeeper Cui returned to the boat and shouted loudly, "Set sail—"

Su Qing calmed down and let out a breath of foul air slowly.Just as he was about to turn around and walk back, a call came from behind him.

"Master Su!"

This call did not come from a distance, but seemed to be close to the ear.The speaker possesses profound internal strength.

And the voice that came into the ears was cold and soft.This is a sound that makes people a little drunk just listening to it.

Su Qing looked back slowly, on the big boat where the shopkeeper Cui was, a beautiful woman in white stood steeply on the side of the boat.The beauty in white is like a fairy coming to the world, so beautiful that people forget to breathe.

The beauty bowed to Su Qing, "Little girl Yang Rumeng, thank you sir. The little girl will come to the door to thank you some other day."

"Yang Rumeng, what a good name! I remember you." Su Qing's smile turned into a spring breeze, she waved her sleeves, and left gracefully.

I see how charming the green hills are, and I guess the green hills are so beautiful.

Su Qing turned around, but the figure of a woman in white appeared in her mind from time to time.In these years, I have seen countless beauties, but I have never seen such a fairy-like woman.

After passing Xinfeng County, we arrived at Fengqi County at dusk.Fengqi County is Su Qing's usual final destination this time.After checking the tax granary in Fengqi County tomorrow, Su Qing should go home after completing the task.

In this dynasty era, the best thing is the tribute, and the best inn is the post station for officials to stay.There are free high-end inns to live in, of course Su Qing will not go to the inn at her own expense.

The night was beautiful, Su Qing and her group gathered in the middle of the enclosed courtyard, drinking fine wine and eating barbecue, looking at the bright moon and chatting happily.

"Whose meat is burnt?" Suddenly, Su Qing sniffed her nose and asked.

"No!"

"I do not have either."

Su Qing's face changed suddenly, and her figure flashed, and she came to the roof.Looking up, the end of the east street is full of red lights.In an instant, Su Qing thought of two words, "Fire!"

"Go, there's a fire over there, go!"

When Su Qing's words fell to the ground, she had already left through the air.With Su Qing's cultivation at the moment, this distance can only be reached in an instant.

The location of the fire was in an independent courtyard in an alley, and thick black smoke rose from the soaring flames.There are countless courtyard houses around the small courtyard.If the fire is allowed to spread, the consequences will be disastrous.

Without hesitation, Su Qing waved her hand lightly, and all the wells within a radius of [-] zhang were drawn by Su Qing's martial arts will.

Well covers that were tightly closed rose into the sky one after another, and crystal-like water columns rose from the wells and rushed into the sky.

Dozens of water dragons sprang out from dozens of wells and gathered towards Su Qing one after another.With a light touch of Su Qing's finger, the water dragons rushed towards the smoky courtyard as if they were alive.

"Stab--stab--"

There were piercing sounds, and the ferocious flame was instantly extinguished.

At this time, there was a sound of piercing through the air, and Xue Chonglou and others rushed over.There were also people who were awakened by the fire and came here farther away, but it was strange that the people nearby did not show up with such a big flame here? "

In an instant, Su Qing realized the weirdness of the matter.

"Chonglou, Zhan Zhao, go and find out why the people around didn't come to put out the fire."

"Yes!"

As Su Qing said, she jumped into the courtyard and stepped into the scorched earth burned by the flames alone.

Just entering the yard, Su Qing paused.

There is a strange pungent smell in the air, and this smell is highly poisonous.It's like... the legendary gas bomb.

However, with Su Qing's current level of martial arts and the Nine Suns Magical Art that is invulnerable to all poisons, it cannot be said that the poisonous gas has no effect on Su Qing, it can only be said that it is completely ineffective.

Entering the main entrance of the hall, what comes into the eyes is a ancestral hall.It shows that this courtyard is not an ordinary family, but a division gate.

Taking a closer look, it turned out that this was the master of a troupe.The Patriarch Hall is filled with colorful flags, and many props for singing and opera performances are piled up all over the floor.

Passing through the Patriarch Hall is the backyard. In the yard surrounded by the backyard, there are several naked men lying in disorder.They curled up, almost pinching their own throats with their hands.

Su Qing stepped forward to investigate and found that all these people had been poisoned to death.

"Om-"

The case record trembled in my mind, and the yellow light flickered back and forth on the cover.

"I found an orange case that can be advanced, do you want to accept it?"

An advanced yellow case?It seems that there is a deeper secret behind this incident.Without hesitation, Su Qing chose to accept.

At this time, hurried footsteps came from behind, and Miao Ruonan walked in, covering his mouth and nose.

"Be careful, my lord. The smell is extremely poisonous. Many people have dizziness and vomiting after smelling that smell."

"Evacuate the people immediately, and no one can come back until the smell clears."

"Yes!"

Su Qing continued to probe inside and opened a room.As soon as I saw it, I saw three people lying on the ground. They were three women who were only wearing bellybands and underpants.Maybe it was too late to open the door to escape, maybe it was too late to put on clothes and dared not open the door, and fell at the door and died of breathlessness.

The three girls are all cardamom years, and they are quite beautiful, but it's a pity.

This is still relatively far from the scene of the fire, so the whole body can be left behind.Walking into the fire scene, Su Qing found several more charred corpses.

Recalling the sound of footsteps behind her, Xue Chonglou and Zhan Zhao came behind Su Qing covering their mouths and noses.

"My lord, I don't know what was burned and emitted poisonous smoke, and the surrounding people were all poisoned. Fortunately, most of them just fell into a coma, and only one or two were deeply poisoned."

"We have ordered people to send the poisoned people to the hospital for treatment. Whether they can be saved depends on the destiny."

"My lord, do you think the poisonous smoke was released on purpose or by accident?"

Su Qing frowned, and slowly shook her head.

"It's not sure yet, we have to find out why the poisonous smoke started."

Soon, the three came to the inner hall and found the source of the poisonous smoke.In the corner of a courtyard in the backyard, a group of silver flames were still burning.The pungent smell and highly poisonous smoke rose from this fire.

It was supposed to be a big vat, but the vat had been burnt and exploded.

Su Qing stepped forward to look at the bluish flames and frowned. The burning white thing was a bit like phosphorous powder but not phosphorous powder. At least the burning of phosphorous powder would not produce such terrible poison.

Su Qing raised her hand to find a source of water to hit the flame, and the flame was instantly extinguished.

But after a while, the fire was burning again.

Seeing this scene, Xue Chonglou let out an exclamation.

"It's weird, it's so weird. How could it be on fire again when it's already gone out?"

"Is it really phosphorus? But it's not all phosphorus, it should be something mixed with phosphorus."

"Does your lord know what this is?"

"A special substance with an extremely low ignition point. It will spontaneously ignite at about thirty or forty degrees. Even if it is extinguished, it will still burn as long as the ambient temperature reaches it."

"My lord, but someone intentionally set fire to poison?"

"Let's look around to see if there is any trace of intentional arson."

"Yes!"

The two dispersed, and Su Qing looked at the flames in a daze.

If flammable white phosphorus is mixed in with this strange mass, the chances of accidental nature are extremely high.And this location is the point of the fire source.

Originally, the layout of this troupe was very fire-resistant, even if it accidentally caught fire, it would not burn too fast, and it was convenient for firefighting.However, this ghost thing will emit a strong poison when it burns, causing the surrounding people to be stunned by the poison, which makes the fire spread.

About an hour later, Zhan Zhao and Xue Chonglou returned to Su Qing's side again.

"My lord, there is no sign of arson."

"I didn't find it here either, but I found a pattern that can be seen everywhere, like a symbol of a mysterious force."

"where?"

"Please come with me, my lord."

After about half an hour, the county magistrate of Fengqi County also came after hearing the news.It should be for the sake of showing off in front of Su Qing, Fengqi county magistrate has been doing all the work himself, and seems to be very conscientious.

I have been busy until dawn, and finally dealt with a mess.After cleaning up the burnt ruins, all the people in the troupe were poisoned and died, so there are no more clues for the time being.

"My lord, after one night's treatment, seventy-eight people are out of danger, and there are still twenty people in coma. It is not optimistic." Fengqi County Magistrate Zhang Dacheng came to Su Qing and reported tremblingly.
