Abyss Express

I don't know how many times before the book was written, it was said that the two sons of General Da Liang's retainers in the prefect's mansion, among whom the younger son Wu Debiao died - died under the gunsmith's knife.

Wu Xiuwen and Zhao Jianxiong had to deal with this matter properly. It was originally their job to clear the way, but the two brothers did not expect that their master had already captured Kun Wu, the demon, and now he was causing an uproar in the city.

At first, the prefect Li Kunhai attached great importance to this matter - after all, the Liang Kingdom was also a warlord force close to Taiye. Now that the young son of this family member has died, he must be dealt with with the utmost severity.

But later, Taiye's living god Kunwu Zhenjun was kidnapped, and the prefect had no energy to handle the case. We must focus on investigating the whereabouts of True Lord Kunwu.

Wu Xiuwen and Zhao Jianxiong were escorted all the way to the guards at the Guard House by the officers and soldiers of the government. They were then referred to Zheng Tiju, and finally brought along with the comfort envoys for interrogation.

Master Tiju is sitting in the hall holding military badges and arrows. On the other side is the pacifier who is in charge of military affairs. The next level down is the recruiter who manages foreign countries and foreign races outside Taiye. As for the personal guards around the prefect, they are all busy looking for True Lord Kunwu at this moment - they don't pay much attention to the case at this retainer's house.

"Who is here? Tell me your name!"

Wu Xiuwen immediately said: "Wu Xiuwen is the son of Wu Chengzhang, the county magistrate of Zhuzhou."

Master Tiji's eyelids twitched——

——He looked at the left and right guards, and then carefully knocked on the seats of the Comfort Envoy and the Recruitment Envoy.

Both colleagues looked restless. They recognized Wu Chengzhang, and they were old acquaintances rather than just meeting each other during the holidays.

Zhuzhou Peninsula is a shipping port. Although it is not as good as Sendai, it is closer to Taiye. If Sendai is the mouth of Daxia's shipping, Zhuzhou is the throat of Taiye - its silk, salt, matchmaking and smoke. They are all extremely important taxes for the court.

"It turns out to be Mr. Wu." Mr. Tiju threw down the military badges and evidence, put down the authority of the command arrow, and wanted to talk about family matters. He didn't want to offend Wu Chengzhang, and he couldn't just let the matter go so hastily, so he decided to ask for details.

"Guards on the left and right, lead the soldiers and brothers down."

A man from the government soldiers immediately stood up and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Master Tiju! Why are you telling us to go down and do it? It was these people who hacked Wu Laoer to death! What kind of case are we going to solve?! Drag them to Caishikou and hack them. Use your head as a warning to others!"

When one person stands up, there will be a second and third one.

"That's right! If you don't understand, I don't understand! The brothers can still testify!"

"Which brother ran slower that day? Can you see clearly?!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Xiuwen laughed out loud.

"Ha ha ha ha."

Dunwu Xiaowei (a coach with an official position but no power) who worked with Wu Laoer in the Fubing stood up.

"Why are you laughing! You beast!"

Wu Xiuwen squinted his eyes and took out a straw stick from his arms, which he made up for fun in the prison.

He used this straw stick to point at each one——

"——You guys, you guys."

"That bitch Wu Debiao came to kill me in bandit clothes. Are you still not allowing me to kill him?"

"When I killed him, you ran faster than the other. I want to ask you!"

"When Wu Laoer died, who saw it? Who knows how he died?"

"Who moved the hand? Who took the knife? Was he hacked to death with one knife? Or was he hacked to death with two knifes?"

This question made all the soldiers speechless. They thought to themselves - Wu Laoer was bullied that day, and only Liuzi stood up. The other brothers just supported the scene and watched the joke.

Unexpectedly, Wu Laoer couldn't take any of his moves, and the same was true for Liuzi.

They fled immediately without taking any notice.

As for how Wu Laoer died, I really can't explain it, and I can't testify to it.

Lieutenant Dunwu is a sensible person. He knows that Wu Xiuwen is a thief, but he is still talking about him.

"Liuzi is awake! Call him to confront him!"

Many of the soldiers and brothers started making noises. Master Tiju couldn't bear to lose face, so he immediately set up the table and started shouting.

"Ridiculous! Who do you think you are!"

Lieutenant Dunwu asked Wu Xiuwen to rely on his strength, and shouted at Wu Xiuwen: "Absurd!"

"I'm talking about you!" Tiju scolded: "How dare you, a coach, scold the eldest son of the Wu family?! I want you to retreat with your brothers in the barracks! Do you dare to disobey me?!"

Suddenly Captain Dunwu felt a chill in his heart. He first looked at the face of his immediate superior——

——Soothing makes people gloomy and depressed. Where in the court is it the turn of this soldier to speak? Even if Wu Laoer climbed out of the coffin and his head came to life, he would have to kowtow enough before he could cry out for injustice during the trial.

He is just the son of the prefect's retainer, and he is also a dead man.

Death is just death, how can it be as precious as a living person?

After all, dead people can only cause trouble, while living people are useful. His family was a general in the Liang Kingdom. When he came to Taiye, he obeyed the imperial edict and entered the prefect's mansion, becoming the prefect's dog.

Such a son of a bitch was born in a doghouse, and Wu Chengzhang's son wanted to kill him, so what else could he complain about?

Wu Laoer was a native of Liang. If it were placed in wartime, this head would be Wu Xiuwen's contribution.

Listen to what Wu Xiuwen said when he came in -

——I feel comfortable lifting.

This guy didn't sound official and called his eunuch father a seventh-grade official. It also gives the leaders a face. This etiquette was in place, but the rough guys under the pacifier didn't understand any etiquette at all. With such a comparison, Master Tiji will naturally be angry.

"Get out." The comforter said in a stern tone as he waved his hand gently.

At this time, Colonel Dunwu felt a thousand grievances in his heart, but could no longer say a word.

His colleague ordered someone to chop him to death, but he couldn't get justice. He couldn't help him at all, and he couldn't get any benefit at all.

Not to mention who came up with the idea of ​​going out of the city to hunt horses, Tai Ye had this unwritten rule - horses don't get fat without grass, and just leading the army's salary can't feed them enough.

Only this time Wu Laoer kicked the iron plate and lost his life.

He and Wu Laoer are partners, and this is what they mean if they appease the envoy, raise the master, and even the prefect. He had nothing to say. He could only lead his brothers to stand in the courtyard like a defeated rooster with a face filled with resentment.

There was no one else around, so Master Tiju finally asked, pointing at Zhao Jianxiong standing aside.

"Master Wu, since you don't kneel, why doesn't this servant kneel either?"

Zhao Jianxiong had just come back to his senses. He didn't know that his eldest brother was dead. After Master Tiju reminded him, in order to take the overall situation into consideration, the boy immediately knelt down.

"Hey!" Wu Xiuwen grabbed his junior brother's clothes, "He was an apprentice recommended by Cao Qinling, the guest of the minister, and asked me to send him to Beijing."

Tiji was a little unhappy and thought to himself.

——Who exactly wants Hongfa Temple (Xia Bang’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs) to protect him?

"Is he a foreigner?"

Wu Xiuwen: "No, his master is a foreigner and is the imperial physician of the Nine Realms. He treats the emperors of the Nine Realms."

After explaining this, Ti Ji no longer paid attention to the kneeling ceremony, but asked about the documents.

"Is there any evidence? Mr. Wu, it's not that I don't believe you, but I'm afraid that you will be deceived by bad people."

Wu Xiuwen immediately pointed to the sealed luggage on the side of the auditorium——

"——It's in the luggage."

When the messenger opened the box in person, he found a piece of beautifully decorated silk cloth. As expected, it had the imperial order from the Master and Guest Cao of Xiabang Hongfa Temple, as well as the emperor's seal.

Zhao Jianxiong couldn't understand it now. He had seen official seals twice in his life, once when recruiting soldiers in Zhaojiazhuang, and once when the results of the provincial examination were released - what Wu Xiuwen was talking about, where did this document come from? !

It also has the emperor’s seal as proof! This is the crime of deceiving the emperor by falsely conveying the imperial edict!

What Zhao Jianxiong didn't know was that the senior brother no longer cared about the lock in his heart.

Wu Xiuwen had been working with Wu Chengzhang since he was a child, and there were also imperial envoys who came to inspect the work with imperial edicts. With his calligraphy and spiritual precision, it was too easy to forge such a document.

He is not afraid of beheading, even if the sky falls, his master will still hold him up.

If this thin piece of cloth could become a gold medal to avoid death, not only would it not burden him at all, but he would also be very happy.

The envoy held the cloth in his hands and presented it to the envoy and Master Tiju to look at together. After reading the above content carefully - I finally understood the "ins and outs", and my attitude suddenly changed.

"Oh! So it turned out to be the miracle doctor invited by Master Cao from overseas?" Mr. Tiju stood up with a smile on his face: "Hehe. Hehehahaha. The flood really washed away the Dragon King Temple, and his own family beat his own family. "

He comforted Zheng Cheng, who was frightened. Wu Laoer was one of his subordinates, and he bumped into the emperor's guests, which created pressure invisibly. If the envoy takes this matter as a thorn in his side and the eunuch pursues him, he will not be able to wear his official uniform for a long time.

"It was Wu Debiao who led the troops out of the city that day."

Wu Xiuwen responded: "That's right."

The appeasement envoy: "This thief dares to rob the imperial doctor of the Nine Realms?"

Wu Xiuwen: "That's right."

Comforter: "Is this brother Zhao Jianxiong a timely savior who avoided making a big mistake?"

Wu Xiuwen thought for a while, held down his junior brother, and asked Jianxiong to stop talking.

Appeasement makes this question interesting and is a very tricky language trap.

If the person was killed by the master, the pacifier would have no way out. Wu Laoer rode his horse and actually rushed to the imperial doctor, intending to kill him without mercy.

If Wu Lao Er was forced to retreat by Zhao Jianxiong, the pacifier could still give a beautiful reason and make up a nice excuse to deal with these troublesome matters slowly.

The messenger on the other side smelled blood and immediately said: "Brother Xiuwen, you might as well call Liuzi to identify him - he is the closest to Wu Laoer, so he must know the person who killed his father."

"You" the comforter had a sulky face but didn't dare to say anything, and he knew what was going on. Judging from Wu Xiuwen's attitude, the imperial doctor must have done it himself.

At this time, Master Tiji stood up and reconciled.

"As long as the Royal Physician is in good health, and there is a holy purpose for this, even if the prefect comes. I must treat the Royal Physician as a guest - this time."

Tiju looked at the pacifier and tapped the official's nose from afar.

"You have to punish yourself with three drinks."

Speaking of the inner meaning of these three cups, they are just one more way to exchange favors as a holiday gift. It can't hurt the official position of the pacifier, and it can't take away the power of this dog official.

"So." Mr. Tiju collected the imperial edict and prepared to take it to the prefect, "I don't have anything else to do. I wonder where the doctor is now? Mr. Wu, if you can help introduce him."

The comforter breathed a sigh of relief. He just climbed out of the oil pan and immediately wanted to make progress——

"——Yes, Wu Laoer's head was brought by two young heroes, but why don't you see the Royal Physician?"

At this time, a lost Xiao Liu burst in from the door. His adoptive father died and he had just recovered from the hidden injury on his sternum. The brothers in the barracks were still unwilling to give up and brought him to the synagogue for questioning. I secretly put this important witness in.

As soon as the tall and powerful Sixth Son came in, he first knelt in front of the three court officials and kowtowed his head, then looked viciously at the two enemies who killed his father beside him, and finally shouted incoherently that he was wronged.

"My lord! My lord, make the decision for me! My lord!"

"These two thieves! And their master! Kill my father with one knife!"

Tiji was a little depressed. He turned his back and stood on the side of the envoy again, not wanting to say anything to the envoy - this hall was like a vegetable market, and the soldiers under his command came and left as they pleased.

The comforter cursed: "What did you say!"

The sixth son was wronged and his face was full of disbelief: "He killed my father!"

Comforter: "Who killed your father?!"

Sixth Son: "Monk! A demon monk! Wearing a cassock embroidered with dragons and soap! The one with thick eyebrows and big eyes - he took my father's sword! He killed him with one blow!"

As soon as these words came out, Tiju's heart was filled with turmoil——

——The person who captured True Lord Kunwu was also a bald monk.

In addition to the inappropriate clothing, a body was also found at the crime scene, wearing a soap-colored cassock. It might be from the same group.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Wu Xiuwen wanted to say something.

The envoys also wanted to make progress. On one side were foreign doctors, and on the other side were the gods from Taiye County. If he can present clues and mess up this muddy water, he will definitely have a chance to be promoted.

"Sixth son! Tell me clearly! That is the imperial doctor of the Nine Realms! Your father Wu Debiao is so brave! He dared to assassinate the imperial doctor!"

Liuzi was stunned for a moment. He had been in the military camp these past few days and had also found out what happened in the city, so he told them everything.

"The demon monk has captured the Great Immortal Kunwu! My father contradicted him. He must have a grudge and want to harm the people of Taiye! Without the Immortal's protection, he wants us to die miserably!"

Tiju's face became increasingly ugly, and he glanced at Wu Xiuwen: "Master Wu, do you know about this?"

Wu Xiuwen: "I have been in prison these days."

Zhao Jianxiong said excitedly: "Master still has this ability?"

"Perhaps you have made a mistake, Liu Zi." Lord Tiju said something else: "On the day when True Lord Kunwu was kidnapped, there was also a man from Zhaojiazhuang. He was wearing a monk's robe and died in Xiangxiang Shop - - His sweetheart has been imprisoned as a convict wife, and the eunuch is still interrogating the whereabouts of True Lord Kunwu. The convict woman Guan Xiangxiang is also being interrogated."

"What?!" Zhao Jianxiong's brain slowed down for a moment, and he finally understood what Master Tiju meant.

My eldest brother is dead? How?

"Huh?" Master Tiju saw Zhao Jianxiong's expression and said, "Zhao Jianxiong, do you recognize Zhao Jianying?"

Wu Xiuwen was nervous and excited, and quickly held down his junior brother.

Zhao Jianxiong immediately responded: "That's my eldest brother! That's my eldest brother!"

After hearing this, Liuzi breathed a sigh of relief, and the hatred in his heart was not that strong - seeing Zhao Jianxiong's dejected look made him feel happy.

"Send the order and go out." Lord Tiju had an account in his mind.

In any case, this is not something he can control, and it is not his turn to be promoted to the sixth rank to pronounce judgment.

True Lord Kunwu and the prefect Li Kunhai are the parents who provide food and clothing for the people of Taiye to rebuild their lives——

——On the day of the incident, the Nine Realms Imperial Physician recommended by Hongfa Temple abducted True Lord Kunwu and rushed out, injuring hundreds of people and killing fifty or sixty people. In any context, it was Riding on the prefect's face and shitting is unjustifiable in front of the frontier soldiers.

Master Tiju was not in charge of the immortal fight, so he could only escort a few key figures in front of the prefect to listen to the prefect's opinions.

The bright knife was revealed, and the soldiers gathered around him. Wu Xiuwen understood that this was an imminent disaster, and there was no way out.

The shackles were hung on his arms, and Zhao Jianxiong then regretted——

——He whispered to his senior brother.

"Am I.I."

Wu Xiuwen: "You are right, junior brother."

Zhao Jianxiong still missed his elder brother, and he didn't know whether what these people said was true or false. I still can't believe it - after all, when his whole family died of illness, it was so sudden and so unreal.

Wu Xiuwen: "Let's go."

Liu Zi rushed forward fiercely, and no one on the left or right came to stop him, as if he acquiesced.

He kicked Wu Xiuwen on the butt, causing the kid to lose balance and hit the courtyard threshold.

Wu Xiuwen finally got up, but the soldiers did not help and did not dare to stop Liu Zi——

——Liu Zi took advantage of Wu Xiuwen's unsteadiness and added another kick.

Xiuwen was not angry this time. He staggered and rolled twice on the ground, his forehead covered with blood.

Jianxiong wanted to help, but the soldiers from the left and right sides immediately held him down, and he wanted to fight for his life.

Wu Xiuwen grabbed his junior brother's trouser legs and climbed up while grabbing his clothes.

Liuzi stepped on him several times, causing Xiuwen to vomit blood. He finally calmed down and wanted to kick Zhao Jianxiong again.

"you dare!"

Wu Xiuwen finally spoke. He gritted his teeth and his eyes glowed with a cold green light, like a wolf.

Liu Zi was so stared at that his whole body went cold, and he couldn't move his legs or feet.

Wu Xiuwen roared——

"——His master is the imperial physician of the Nine Realms. If you dare to stretch your left leg, it will be chopped off. If you dare to stretch your right leg, you will be unable to leave the bed for the rest of your life!"

"You want to slap him! I'll chop off your shoulders as well."

"He's dead, brother, and your adopted father, who is worse than a pig or a dog, is dead, and you still don't understand your hatred? Do you dare to hurt him?"

Wu Xiuwen had nothing else on his mind, and he didn't know whether Zhao Jianying was really dead.

But Jianxiong couldn't bear this pain. Without a blood brother, the senior brother must stand up.

Tiju had been observing secretly. When he saw that the young master of the Wu family was always protecting the rough men in Zhaojiazhuang, he believed Wu Xiuwen's words more and more - this imperial doctor might be an immortal, and Wu Xiuwen would naturally protect the disciples of the Xian family. They were in the dark. Fengling can slay demons and eliminate demons, and the imperial doctor has great magical powers, so he is indeed qualified to meet the Holy Emperor.

At this time, lift and pull out the offset frame.

"Six sons! You all take a step back! Leave it to the prefect for trial! The laws of Daxia will not wrong you!"

The six sons were threatened by Wu Xiuwen's spiritual pressure, and the evil fire in their hearts gradually extinguished. When they heard the order to lift, they retreated to the ranks of the soldiers.

When Xiuwen heard Tiju's statement, he just thought it was ridiculous——

——Master is indeed right. The more a person lacks something, the more he likes to talk about it.

From Zhuzhou to Taiye, all the dog officials I met along the way said that they enforced the law impartially and talked about Xia Lu. When it came time to actually do something, it all turned into a dream.

Demons and ghosts like to talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality. They are afraid that the human skin will be exposed and the appearance will be disfigured. They also want people to kneel down and worship them gratefully, send them to the temple and offer them incense.

"Senior brother!" Zhao Jianxiong shouted hurriedly.

"I'm fine." Wu Xiuwen said with a broken face, standing at the door of the courtyard: "No one dares to kill you!"

The boy turned around and cursed, which made the three court officials present feel uncomfortable.

"I have recorded this grudge. As long as the Holy Order is here, whoever dares to touch a hair of yours, disobey the order, and kill the nine tribes."

He raised his head and tilted his head, blowing his beard and staring: "Huh?!"

Wu Xiuwen scolded even louder: "Old dog! What! You don't accept it!? This little beast is yours to take charge of. If he tortures me, the account will be written on your head!"

"Tell you to hurry up and deliver the message back by postage for 800 miles! Go to Hongfa Temple! Ask the Holy Master clearly! Wait for the news to come back! It will take at least half a month! Three horses have to be killed! I want to bet my life with you !Do you dare to bet?!"

"How much money did his adoptive father Wu Laoer make from blackmail outside the city? How many people did he kill? This was to eliminate harm for the people! But this little beast ended up being wronged?"

"Think it over for me!"

Wu Xiuwen turned to the six sons to show off his violence, and the six sons were so frightened that they did not dare to reply.

"The imperial doctor spared your life! He slashed you with the back of his knife! When your stinking father was committing murder, would you spare the lives of others?!"

Liu Zi was stimulated and became excited.

"I want to avenge my father! I must avenge my father!"

"The convict Guan Xiangxiang! Where is True Lord Kunwu! You summoned him truthfully!"

In the court hall, a senior official (from the fifth rank, with no official position) sat next to the prefect and poured tea for him.

Guan Xiangxiang has been tortured four times while pushing the cup and handing it over.

——There are thirty pieces of court sticks, two sticks of incense sticks, and tiger stools with pepper water. The next step is to pull out the hair, one by one, and sprinkle salt and chili powder on the wound.

The prison warden called this punishment "fried villain"——

——If you can't ask anything else, you have to take a frying pan, pull out Guan Xiangxiang's fingernails, cut out flowers from the fingertips, and fry them in the frying pan. This is called "fried sugar flowers", which is very delicious. Creativity.

Guan Xiangxiang's eyes rolled up, she had no strength, her white prison uniform was covered in blood, she had become bald, and her body was dying along with her heart.

"I have no idea."

A weak voice came from the hoarse throat.

"I really don't know. My lord, I really. I really don't know."

"Kunwu came to me that day because my husband was sick."

"He wanted me to buy medicine and have an affair with me."

"I don't know. I don't know where he went."

"Bold!" The doctor who advised me pinched his mustache, raised his orchid finger and stabbed the shameless prostitute fiercely: "Will True Lord Kunwu like you, a bitch?! It's obviously you who seduced True Lord here. First! Don’t ruin True Lord’s reputation!”

"It's me. It's me." Guan Xiangxiang nodded in agreement. She didn't want to suffer anymore: "It's me, it's all me."

The doctor who was consulted continued his analysis and asked the prefect for the credit for this interrogation: "In that case! The thieves must have cooperated with each other and had a premeditated plan to kidnap the living gods of Taiye County! Your Majesty, the convict's wife is already here."

"Fuck you." Li Kunhai repaired his nails impatiently and had lost all patience.

He spoke to Lingguang Buddha in the morning and was scolded by Judas in front of the elixir.

Three of the fourth-level Gong Cao died, and the city's defenders suffered heavy casualties. This was all a good deed done by a monk single-handedly.

It is suggested that the doctor has no duties as an official. He usually just makes the prefect happy and says some nice words. Just like the caddy who plays golf with the company boss, he can get so much wealth.

Li Kunhai also knew that the trial of Guan Xiangxiang would definitely be fruitless.

This has been four rounds of torture. If it were a strong man, no matter how vague the memory is, it should be restored. Even if she wants to die for relief, she will still talk nonsense and make up lies. As a result, this bitch only has one set of words -

——If we really want to get Kunwu back, we have to rely on the psychics in the city and the army to search the mountains and ask for directions.

But even with such a simple matter, the doctor was not able to do it well. The interrogation process was sloppy, which made Li Kunhai very angry.

What kind of evil possessed Kunwu to find a prostitute? Or a married woman?

Forget it if you are a married woman! Do you still want to use spiritual power to force others?

Wouldn't it be better to spend some money? Spend some money!

If that doesn't work, find someone more beautiful! Give that Zhao man a wife! Give me a replacement!

Aren’t there many female believers in your temple? Be sick!
