Demon detective

Chapter 168 Master
The lights are on.

Daguan City is dimly lit, and there are beautiful scenery everywhere.

However, Sima Xin, who joined the army in the Yamen of Songzhou Prefecture, was sitting in his office and study, frowning.

The sudden death of Governor Han Wentao made him feel deep fear, fearing that it would be his turn next!

Even though Cui Xiaotian didn't have the handle on him, and he wasn't a member of Han Wentao's party, but one thing was undeniable, that was the one who caught Cui Xiaotian in the end—it was him!
If he hadn't acted recklessly in the Yanping county government and accidentally arrested Cui Xiaotian and imprisoned him, I'm afraid there would be no worries now.

Every time Sima Xin thought of this, his teeth itch with hatred, and he wished he could go to Qizhou immediately and slap that sinister county magistrate Song Zhili several times.

However, this little county magistrate is not only an official higher than himself now, but also holding a golden peach in his hand, he will definitely become an official in the court in the future, leaving himself far behind.

To this day, he still can't figure out that such a crazy and nervous guy caused a huge disaster, and in the end not only turned the crisis into safety, but even turned defeat into victory!
To be favored by the Holy One is simply unbelievable...

Just as he was thinking, a steward suddenly came to report outside.

"Lord Sima, there is a man outside who claims to be a police officer from the Yanping County Government, and wants to see you!"

"What?" Sima Xin's eyes widened suddenly, "Yanping County? Hurry up?"

The word Yanping County was like a fishbone stuck in his throat, which made Sima Xin extremely uncomfortable just hearing it.

"He said..." the steward added, "He was sent by Song Zhili, magistrate of Yanping County, and he has something to see."

"Song Zhili..." Sima Xin gritted his teeth and said the name, his lips trembling with anger.

The manager didn't know what was going on, so when he saw Sima Xin's face turned livid, he felt that he should be gone.

"Alas..." However, Sima Xin waved his hand after sighing, "Bring him in!"

"Yes!" The steward agreed and went out to lead the people.

Sima Xin was still nervous, he even took off the saber from the wall and hid it under the desk.

To be honest, he didn't know why he did it.

Soon, a young and familiar little policeman quickly entered the house, bowed to Sima Xin, and then reported his family name: "Xu Zhen, the chief arrester in Yanping County, has met Lord Sima."

How could Sima Xin not know Xu Zhen, but he was very curious, and immediately asked with a sullen face, "What are you doing here?"

As a result, Sima Xin was dumbfounded, and something happened in his head that smoked.

But Xu Zhen first crossed his hands and fingers, made a mysterious gesture, then closed his eyes, and chanted a mantra.

In the next second, Xu Zhen swiped his hands, and a burst of flame burst into the air, but seeing the reflection of the fire, Xu Zhen's face suddenly became strange and inexplicable, like a demon god.

"..." Sima Xin was completely speechless, he quickly reached out and grabbed the handle of the knife under the table, talking in his heart, fortunately I had prepared a knife.

"Lord Sima," Xu Zhen counted quickly, then opened his eyes and said, "The way of heaven has more than enough to make up for, but the way of man is not the same. The damage is not enough to make up for."

"What do you mean?" Sima Xin was a little confused.

"Master Sima," Xu Zhen said, "I'm here to save you!"

"You... help me?"

"Yes," Xu Zhen said, "Master Song Zhili sent me to rescue you, because we figured out early in the morning that there is a disaster in Daguan City, and Master Sima is in trouble!"

Swish!
Hearing this, Sima Xin was furious, immediately drew out his saber, pointed at Xu Zhen and shouted:

"Bastard! You dare to pretend to be a ghost here, what is your intention?"

"Be safe and don't be impatient," Xu Zhen, however, remained calm and continued his magic stick performance, and said, "Do you really think that the three big bullies in Yanping County were just a matter of Mr. Song Zhili's luck?"

"You..." Hearing these words, Sima Xin suddenly felt that the saber in his hand was extremely heavy.

That's right, what happened to the county magistrate is indeed a bit miraculous after he made such a big mistake.

"I figured that out for him," Xu Zhen said with the corner of his mouth raised, "We figured it out early in the morning, and the inner guards were paying attention to Qiu Zhennong and Cui Xiaotian, so we obeyed the destiny and did what we should do.

"If that wasn't the case," Xu Zhen asked his soul, "How could the always obedient Master Song Zhili do so many crazy things?"

"This..." Sima Xin felt his wrist sink again.

Yes, it was really difficult to understand at the beginning, but now he can remember Song Zhili's crazy expression.In front of so many officials from the state capital, he dared to contradict him like that. So it turned out that he was... confident?
"The reason Master Song didn't take me to Qizhou is because I speculated that something big was going to happen in Daguan City based on Ziqi going north and Xingyan's calculations, so I came here on purpose.

"Lord Sima," Xu Zhen said with a dignified expression, "You are the eye of the storm. If you don't listen to me, your head will fall to the ground, or your blood will flow like a river!"

gollum...

Sima Xin swallowed first, and then shouted at Xu Zhen as if to cheer himself up: "Scaremongering, scaremongering, you just say a few words, and you let me listen to you all?"

"Lord Sima," Xu Zhen's eyes widened suddenly, "Have you encountered any crisis, is there anything on your mind, don't you think you have no idea?"

"me……"

That's right, Sima Xin was still worried about his own safety just now, and his future was even more bleak.

"Believe me," Xu Zhen said, "I can make you the second Song Zhili; if you don't believe me, then you can only ask for blessings!"

"You..." Sima Xin put down his saber, but his mind was running fast. After a few seconds, he suddenly thought of something and said to Xu Zhen, "You keep saying that I am in trouble, so you should show some skills and let me Believe it?

"You say I have a disaster, where does the disaster come from?"

"The disaster came from the northeast, where Gengjin is located." Xu Zhen said casually, twisting his fingers.

The county government prison in Daguan City is located in the northeast, and the prison obviously corresponds to "gold" among the five elements.

"Prison..." Sima Xin quickly thought of the case that happened in the county government prison, and wondered in his heart, could it be Fang Wubing's fault?
but……

"Little catcher," Sima Xin asked again, "Since you know the art of derivation, why don't you tell me... tell me about me? You say I'm in trouble, but do you understand me?"

"Born in October of the year of Jiazi," Xu Zhen twirled his fingers, and said in a contemptuous tone, "There are three brothers, two sisters, and a birthmark like a cloud, located on the left hip..."

Next, Xu Zhen told a lot of information about Sima Xin, the accuracy of which made Sima Xin speechless.

"By the way," Xu Zhen said again, "You've been depressed recently, don't take medicine anymore, your hemorrhoids, too..."

"Don't, don't talk about it!" Sima Xin was completely convinced, because no one except the doctor knew about his hemorrhoids.

"Sima Xin," Xu Zhen snorted contemptuously, and even called him by his first name, "What our Master Song Zhili is looking for is someone with a broad mind and a heart for the world. If you are so small-minded, you will change your life again. !"

"No, no, no," Sima Xin hurriedly clasped his fists together, "Hurry up, oh no, master, I'm just trying to test it out! I believe it, and now I'm all up to you. Tell me... What should we do next?"
