White Snake Demonstration Walk

Chapter 191 Murder Case
After Bai Suzhen heard Xiaoqing's words, she smiled slightly, Sushou picked up a stone from the grass on the side, and threw it into the water, there was only a light plop, and the water splashed and rippled in circles.

She smiled and said: "Qing'er, everyone is born different, just like the ripples in the water, swinging outwards in circles. Even so, no one is the same, and this is the essence of life." Fascinating."

Turning his head to look at Xiaoqing beside him, he said, "Qing'er, you are lively and active, this is not a bad thing, it's just your personality. But your reckless behavior style really should be changed! Like this time, if it wasn't for Chen An's extraordinary cultivation, it is estimated that his life would be in danger at this moment, and it will depend on how you end up."

Xiaoqing sat up from the bluestone slab, sighed lightly, and said, "I also know that I have a hot temper, but I don't know why... I can't control my temper when I meet Qiao Chen'an."

Bai Suzhen glanced at her, and suddenly said with a smile: "That's because Qing'er, you've put your anger on Tong Chen from the bottom of your heart!"

Xiaoqing sighed suddenly when she heard the words, and stopped talking. Although she knew she shouldn't be like this, Qiao Chen'an only had kindness to her. There is a feeling of unconvinced, this is the most fundamental reason!

Bai Suzhen said: "How about this, Qing'er, if you see Chen An again next time, you must always remind yourself in your heart that he is your savior, so it will probably be much better!"

Xiao Qing nodded, suddenly embraced Bai Suzhen who was beside her with both hands, leaned against her, and said: "Qing'er just listen to what my sister tells me!"

Bai Suzhen stroked Xiaoqing's long hair, shook her head and smiled.

On the night of the second day, Bai Suzhen was sitting quietly in the small pavilion, when suddenly a blue light flew quickly from outside the house, and landed on the ground and turned into a blue shadow, Xiaoqing shouted anxiously: "Sister, sister, it's not good !Xu Xian has been arrested!"

Bai Suzhen got up from the pavilion when she heard the words, grabbed Xiaoqing's shoulders with jade hands, frowned and said, "Qing'er, what did you say?"

Xiaoqing showed anxiety, and said in a hurried tone, "I mean, Xu Xian has been arrested!"

Bai Suzhen took a deep breath, and tried her best to be calm and said: "What's going on, Qing'er, please tell me quickly!" Xu Xian is his benefactor, and he must not make mistakes.

Xiaoqing took a deep breath before saying: "I don't know what happened, but when I came back, I saw a large group of people gathered on the street to watch, and some yamen servants pressed Xu Xian into the yamen. I heard that something seemed to kill him." It’s amazing! Sister, go and have a look!”

Bai Suzhen's face showed a trace of seriousness. Fortunately, she has cultivated Taoism for thousands of years, and her mind is much calmer than Xiaoqing's, and she is not so prone to emotional fluctuations. She shook Xiaoqing's palm and said: "Qing'er, don't worry, let's go together Look, what happened!"

Xiaoqing nodded, and the two of them jumped up and turned into two streamers of light, one green and one white, and flew towards the government office.

After a while, he came to the front of the government office, first found a hidden corner and showed his body, then walked towards the middle of the government office, and saw a large group of people surrounding the government office from a distance away.

Bai Suzhen looked at Xiaoqing beside her, Xiaoqing understood, stepped forward a few steps, and asked a farmer beside her, "Brother, do you know what happened in the yamen?"

The farmer looked back at Xiaoqing, and said: "It's not that someone died, Mr. Xu was arrested!"

Xiao Qingxiu frowned, and asked: "What's going on, can you tell me?"

The farmer said: "I don't know too well, it seems that Xu Xianggong took the wrong medicine and killed someone!"

Xiaoqing thanked her, and then returned to Bai Suzhen's side, the latter heard the conversation between the two, with a serious face, said: "Qing'er, let's go inside and have a look!"

Xiaoqing nodded, seeing a crowd of people in front of her crowded together, it was difficult to move forward, so she pointed her finger and exerted a little magic power, the crowd seemed to be squeezed by force, and involuntarily parted to the two sides, and the two finally came to the hall of the government office outside.

Looking inside, he saw Xu Xian kneeling in the hall, beside him was a young woman, two rows of yamen servants were lined up on both sides of the yamen, and Gu Yangao, the prefect of Hangzhou, was sitting at the desk.

I only heard the woman crying: "The magistrate must be the master of the slave family! My family officials are sick in bed and have been taking medicine in the Qingyu Hall. The physical condition is gradually improving. But I returned home after buying vegetables today. I actually found out that my guy... he's out of breath!"

As he said that, he stretched out his finger to Xu Xian who was beside him, crying and said: "The medicine my family officials take these days is all taken from this Xu Xian, he must have harmed my family officials!"

Xu Xian's body trembled when he heard the woman's words, he lowered his body even lower, and said: "The villain has absolutely no intention of harming others, I hope the adults will see clearly!"

Gu Yan looked at Xu Xian in the hall, with a look of helplessness in his eyes. Originally, he didn't intend to recognize this poor boy as his son-in-law, but planned to find another good family for his daughter, but he only decided to do so because he was instructed by the Bodhisattva on the way. Accept Xu Xian as his son-in-law.

But what he never expected was that within a few days of this incident, such an incident happened. His son-in-law-to-be was involved in such a murder case. What should he do? very.

It's just a headache, but the case is still going to trial. Gu Yan glanced to the left and right, and said, "What are you doing?"

As soon as the voice fell, a middle-aged man came to the lobby with a package in his hand, knelt down on the ground, and said, "Wu Zuo Feng Er has met the magistrate."

Gu Yan asked, "Feng Er, have you found out the cause of Li's death?"

Feng Er said respectfully: "Reporting to the magistrate, the younger one already knows the cause of Li's death. Due to his physical condition, he originally suffered from a cold-yin syndrome, and he needed medicinal materials for nourishing yang and Qi to recuperate, but recently there was a problem with the medicine. error."

Speaking of opening the package in his hand, Feng Er took out a medicinal material that resembled a certain plant root, and said: "My lord, please look, this medicine is called Bailuoxiang, it is Bailuocao The rhizome is a tonic, and it looks very similar to another medicinal material, orchid wood, if you don't distinguish carefully, it is easy to confuse the two."

"Lanchenmu is a medicine for invigorating yang and nourishing qi, while Bailuoxiang is a substance that nourishes yin and restores deficiency. The properties of the two medicines are just opposite. Li Shi was originally sick due to body yin, and taking a large amount of Bailuoxiang, naturally It will aggravate the condition and even cause death.”

In the hall, the woman burst into tears again after hearing Feng Er's words. Xu Xian suddenly remembered that when he was making medicine that day, his mind was full of the magistrate's selection of a son-in-law, and he was likely to be rejected. Lost, it seems that the two medicines were really mixed up.

After listening to Wu Zuo's words, Gu Yan couldn't help frowning deeply. If this was the case, then Xu Xian would be more guilty of killing someone's life. If he was just an ordinary commoner, as the saying goes, killing people pays for their lives, and debts are paid for. It is a matter of course and right, as long as the death penalty is imposed, it will be executed after autumn.

However, this Xu Xian was someone his daughter admired and liked, but it made it difficult for him to do so.

"Suzhen, here."

Bai Suzhen, who was paying attention to the situation in Yazhong, suddenly heard someone calling her softly, turned her head to look, only to find that Qiao Chenan was walking towards herself through the crowd.

He couldn't help but stepped forward and asked, "Chen'an, why are you here?"

Xiao Qing, who was beside Bai Suzhen, saw Qiao Chen'an, her eyes averted a little, but thinking of the previous agreement with her sister, she suppressed the unnatural feeling in her heart, and said in a somewhat stiff tone: "Mr. Qiao!"

This time it was Qiao Chen'an's turn to be surprised. He had known Xiaoqing for so long, and he had never seen her so honest. ", "Smelly Scholar" shouted, where did he call himself "Qiao Xianggong" once?
He couldn't help looking at her, and said with a smile, "Xiaoqing, you are here too!"

Xiaoqing nodded slightly, then looked up at Qiao Chenan, and found that he was smiling and looking at her, and the feeling of resistance to him seemed to have gone away.

Qiao Chen'an glanced at Xu Xian who was kneeling under the hall, then looked at Bai Suzhen and said, "Hanwen has such a big deal, how can I not come?"

Bai Suzhen sighed, with a sad look on her face, she said: "Who would have thought that such a thing would happen, a serious case of human life is not so easy to deal with." Who would have expected that her benefactor would go through so many twists and turns when reincarnated? ?She was somewhat grateful to Qiao Chen'an in her heart, if the latter hadn't told him that Xu Xian was her benefactor, she didn't know how long she would have searched in West Lake.

It's just that there is still a question in her mind that she doesn't understand. Even she herself doesn't know who the benefactor is, so why is Qiao Chen'an so sure?

Qiao Chenan said: "We can only see how the prefect decides the crime, and then we can figure out a way." Bai Suzhen nodded, even if Xu Xian was sentenced to death, with her and Qiao Chenan around, Xu Xian would never lose his life.

The interrogation took more than half an hour, but in the end Xu Xian was not convicted. He only said that the case was still unclear and needed to be discussed, so he withdrew from the courtroom.

The crowd dispersed, Qiao Chenan, Bai Suzhen, and Xiaoqing were walking on the street. Passers-by greeted him from time to time, and Qiao Chenan nodded in response. With his reputation and status in Hangzhou City today, it can be said that there are eight Everyone knows ten old people, from young to young children.

After seeing the two women beside him, many people showed surprise and envy in their eyes, secretly thinking that Mr. Qiao is really a great blessing, but they can't envy him.

When approaching the West Lake, Bai Suzhen said: "Chen'an, do you want to sit at the mansion?"

Qiao Chen'an pondered for a moment, then said with a smile, "That's fine too!"

When they arrived at the White Mansion, the scenery in front of them remained the same, it was still the curtain of clear water, like a heavenly palace, although the two of them helped Xu Xian a little, but the outcome of the case is yet to be decided, so there is no need to worry.

Qiao Chenan said: "Suzhen, there is something I have considered for a long time, and I still need your help."

Bai Suzhen smiled and said, "What's the matter, let's just talk about it."

Qiao Chen'an got up and walked to the pavilion, and said with a smile: "I was once gifted with a kung fu technique. When I practiced it, I needed to go to the extreme sky, and I used Yunying Gangsha in the five elements of real sand, but with my current cultivation base It is extremely difficult, and it is even more unable to withstand the violent turbulent wind, so..."

"So you want me to help you to the extreme sky?" Bai Suzhen continued his words.

Qiao Chen'an was taken aback for a moment, then nodded immediately, and said with a smile: "You are right."

Bai Suzhen smiled and said: "This is not a big problem." In fact, with her temperament, it stands to reason that she shouldn't have such a deep relationship with a man, but after all, Qiao Chen'an was the first man she had entangled with since she left the mountain, and even more so. At one time, he mistakenly thought that he was the reincarnation of his benefactor. Although he later confirmed that he was not the person he was looking for, the karma had already been planted.

Although his current cultivation base is not advanced, and it is much worse than his own, but with his talent, he will be able to reach this level one day, even if he does not know each other, he still needs to be called a fellow Taoist.

And the most important point is that she doesn't hate this person in her heart.

Bai Suzhen came to Qiao Chenan's side, raised her head, looked at the endless, bright blue sky, and said with a smile, "Wait a moment." With the magic power activated, the whole person rose to the sky at an extremely fast speed, and soon disappeared.

"elder sister!"

Qiao Chen stood quietly by the pavilion, waiting for Bai Suzhen's return, when he suddenly heard Xiaoqing's shout from outside the pavilion, he looked back and saw Xiaoqing just stepping into the small pavilion.

Seeing that Bai Suzhen's forehead disappeared from the pavilion, Xiaoqing couldn't help asking in doubt: "Where's sister?" She looked at Qiao Chenan with her beautiful eyes.

Qiao Chenan joked: "Why didn't you say that I ran Suzhen away this time?"

Xiaoqing raised her eyes, and immediately wanted to refute, but then sank down, her chest heaved slightly, and said: "My lady has a lot, so I don't care about you, a rude fellow!" Go to the side of the table, where Bai Suzhen was before.

Qiao Chenan smiled slightly, and sat down opposite her. Xiaoqing glanced at the corner of her eyes, and suddenly took out the umbrella leaning in the corner, and said, "Why haven't you taken this umbrella away?"

Qiao Chen'an looked at the woman in front of her. Xiaoqing's appearance was undoubtedly very beautiful, especially at this moment, her pair of beautiful eyebrows were slightly slanted. Full of youthful and lively atmosphere, completely opposite to Bai Suzhen's quiet and elegant, he was suddenly curious about how these two completely opposite personalities managed to be inseparable and have such a good relationship.

He smiled and said, "I'll treat it as a gift for you!"

Xiaoqing didn't know what to think of when she heard the words, her face suddenly turned red, and she said with disgust: "Who cares about your broken umbrella, such a girl can have as many umbrellas as she wants! You should give it to my sister!" The umbrella leans against the table.

When speaking, her pink lips opened up and down, a row of white teeth were exposed like jade, and a faint sweet breath came out and penetrated into Qiao Chen'an's nose.

Qiao Chenan's eyes fell on Xiaoqing's lips, recalling in his mind that he was poisoned by Xiaoqing and fell into a coma for three days, he couldn't help shaking his head and laughing, Xiaoqing looked suspiciously, and said, "Why are you smirking?" ?”

"It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered what it's like to be poisoned by snake venom!"
