Demon detective

Chapter 128 Snow and Rain
dusk.

County government.

Outside the gate of the South Prison.

Looking at the hazy and yellow sky, Xu Zhen crossed his arms and frowned, still pondering Song Zhili's words.

In Song Zhili's view, sacrificing one's life for righteousness is foolishness, and he thinks it's not worthwhile to risk one's life in order to wipe out a few bullies.

In fact, Xu Zhen's philosophy is similar to that. Only by striving for the upper hand and gaining greater rights and abilities can more injustices be changed.

And once it dies halfway, all ideals are empty talk.

However, after Qiu Batian and Cui Yanwang were eradicated, how could he not feel relieved to see the scenes of the common people beating gongs and drums and celebrating the liberation?
Why don't you feel relieved when the mountain that weighs on your head collapses and there are no more villains coming to your house to collect debts?
Therefore, Xu Zhen still believes that all evil should be eliminated!
If the small evils are not eliminated, they will be even less qualified to deal with the big evils.

It's just that I need to be more flexible, not only to eliminate evil, but also to protect myself.

Originally, Xu Zhen's plan was quite smooth. He took down the two bullies in one go, and the ghost-faced killer was caught. Seeing that he was done, he was in a difficult situation because of Song Zhili's fatal mistake.

If the secret way can really be opened, can it be...he can only wander the world from now on?

With 2 taels of silver bills in his arms, and two boxes of treasures at home, he is naturally not short of money, and with the blessing of "The Demon Way", it seems that he can take his little daughter-in-law to dream of wandering around the world and create another world.

But... what about the uncle's family?Will it be implicated in the future?
Also, if he offended the governor Han Wentao, would he be wanted for assassination?

Even if they find an exit, can they really escape from Yanping County safely?

Also, what if the secret path is not opened?

otherwise……

Xu Zhen's mind was running fast, and he even thought, should everyone take Cui Xiaotian hostage and rush out together, and then go to the Tianxiong Escort?

Let's see... can you cheat Miss Li again?
If you can lure the enemy to the Tianxiong Escort and involve the Tianxiong Escort, will you be able to find an opportunity to fish in troubled waters?

What the governor Han Wentao is most afraid of now is the spread of secrets, so with the help of Tianxiong Escorts, will this secret be spread throughout the Jianghu, so as to restrict them?
Do not!
No...

Xu Zhen quickly rejected this idea, because he thought that would be too wicked. Miss Li is so jealous, and has a clear love and hatred. Would she still be human if she cheated on her?
What's more, she has become hostile towards him now, if she really went to find her, she might be severely beaten by Miss Li first...

"Brother! I'm here!"

Just as Xu Zhen was thinking hard, Shen Yu came to Xu Zhen excitedly, carrying a black iron rod.

"Look, there happens to be an iron bar in the armory of the yamen," Shen Yu said, shaking the iron bar casually, "Although it's not as easy as the one at home, it's not bad!"

Although Huniu is a tiger, every time Xu Zhen sees her, she feels full of security and intimacy.

"I'd like to see if any thief comes to rob the prison, he will be spanked with a stick! Hahaha..." Shen Yu laughed like a bell, and then added, "Anyway, Chief Cheng has already hidden Cui Xiaotian Now, even if you come to grab it, you can only rush for nothing!"

"..." Xu Zhen quickly withdrew his sense of security and intimacy.

"Xiaoyu," Shen Mingchen and Qi Yunzheng also came to the gate of the prison at this time, the old head catcher waved at his daughter and said, "Go to the prison and count the number of people, I can't trust those jailers."

"Okay..." Shen Yu put away the iron rod and entered the cell obediently.

As soon as Shen Yu left here, the monk Qi Yunzheng knelt down in front of Xu Zhen:

"My benefactor, please accept the little monk's worship!"

Only then did Xu Zhen realize that the shackles on Qi Yunzheng's body had been removed.

"If there is no benefactor's ingenious plan, it would be extremely difficult to find the ghost-faced killer. Your great kindness and virtue will never be forgotten..."

Qi Yun was about to kowtow, Xu Zhen hurriedly helped him up, and asked:
"Why... are you really a monk?"

"Well," Qi Yunzheng nodded, "I received precepts at the Shaolin Temple in Shangzhou, and the Dharma name is Dingchan."

Yo?
Xu Zhen was surprised. He didn't expect that the Daxuan Dynasty also had Shaolin Temple.

"He is indeed a monk," Shen Mingchen added, "If someone really comes to rob the prison, he can also come in handy."

When speaking, Shen Mingchen was extra careful, carefully watching his surroundings, for fear of being overheard.

"It's a pity," Xu Zhen said regretfully, "If there is a chance, why don't you run away?"

"No," Qi Yunzheng said resolutely, "I won't leave. Several benefactors have caused trouble for me. How can I just leave? Besides, I have broken the precept of killing, and neither the Buddha nor the Dharma will tolerate it."

"Master Song said," Shen Mingchen said to Qi Yunzheng, "If Qi Dalang can be cleared and rehabilitated in the future, he will consider your situation and punish you according to the circumstances. But those... seem to be a later story!"

"You two benefactors, don't worry," Qi Yunzheng said, "Whether my eldest brother can be rehabilitated or not, I am already satisfied! Now, I just want to fight side by side with my benefactors!"

"it is good!"

Shen Mingchen immediately threw a steel knife to Qi Yunzheng...

……

Time came to midnight in a blink of an eye.

According to the report from the backyard, it was said that the secret passage was progressing relatively smoothly, and the collapsed ruins had been dug up. Cheng Xiao was exploring the depths of the secret passage and searching, and it was estimated that the exit would be found soon.

According to Shen Mingchen, only he and magistrate Tong knew about the secret path.

County magistrate Tong once thought about repairing the secret passage, but after thinking about it later, more people would know about it once it was repaired.The news that the county magistrate's family was cultivating a secret way did not sound good, so they gave up in the end.

At this moment, light snow finally fell in the cloudy sky, but the temperature has risen, and it turns into rain when it falls...

There was a light on at the entrance of the South Prison, and there were four door gods standing at the entrance, namely Xu Zhen, Shen Mingchen, Shen Yu, and Qi Yunzheng. Inside the prison, there were more arresters and jailers lurking.

Even, Xu Zhen repeated his old tricks, found many criminals with relatively minor crimes, and traded with them using the letter of forgiveness, and released them in the event of a prison robbery...

"Senior Brother Xu," at this moment, Shen Yu stretched out his hand to catch a few snowflakes, and the snowflakes melted immediately, "I have always had a good hunch, I already smelled murderous intent, and I feel that the other party is about to attack soon!"

"This..." Shen Yu's words left Xu Zhen speechless.

"Girl," Shen Mingchen complained, "hope for a better life! The secret path will soon find the exit, when the time comes, you go first!"

"That can't be done," Shen Yuchu held the iron rod in his hand, "Let's go together!"

"Amitabha," at this moment, Qi Yun seemed to have heard something, immediately chanted the Buddha's name, and said to the crowd, "I also feel this way, it seems...they have come!"

Shen Yu and Qi Yunzheng's premonition was really accurate. When the spiral snowflakes flying down from the sky suddenly turned into raindrops, many men in black came running quickly outside the yamen!

These people are all light and strong, stepping on the congealing stagnant water without making any sound.

The number of men in black was far beyond imagination, gathering like ants from all directions towards the county government office. When they were approaching, their hands flickered, showing cold steel knives.

In the snow and rain, a dark night fight is about to kick off.

However, just as the men in black were about to climb over the wall and enter the hospital, a high-pitched shout suddenly came from far away from the long street.

"drive……"

With a loud shout, I saw a carriage rushing towards the main gate of the county government office at an extremely fast speed...
