The female cultivator Mingyue is the servant of the saintess of the sect, and because of her success in controlling beasts, she is quite favored by the saintess Wu Qingxin.
So her status has naturally increased. Although she is a servant, she is still a little higher than the ordinary disciples of the immortal sect, not to mention their handymen at the gate of the Taoist temple.
"Are you... the head catcher Jopev?"
The female cultivator Mingyue recognized this person after some identification.
She didn't take a mortal's name to heart at first, but this person contradicted her several times in a row, and almost broke her and committed a murder last night, so she was not impressed.
"Since the Lord is here, I won't gossip." Qiao Mu said:
"Shangxian Mingyue, I have found the real body of that impermanent monster."
"Oh? Did you come here to tell me on purpose? You really mean it." Mingyue clearly showed joy on her face.
Without further ado, Qiao Mu lit the blue lamp that was a magic weapon before, and the blue flame trembled violently as soon as it appeared, and floated towards the...little cat lying at Qiao Mu's feet?
"Is this the real body of that demon cat?" Mingyue was slightly taken aback.
It's not that she hasn't dealt with this impermanent monster before, it's just that she hasn't succeeded in capturing it.But she didn't expect that the impermanent monster that she couldn't catch with all her efforts would turn out to be the little tabby cat limp on the ground?
"Okay, you're doing well." She quickly restrained her surprise and stepped forward:
"This impermanent monster has done many evils and committed many murders in Fucheng. This kind of beast should be brought into my fairy gate for punishment, and it will pay for the sins it committed in a long time."
It's just that the tree didn't move.
"So, the Immortal Mingyue has also confirmed that the monster pointed at by this blue lamp is the real body of the impermanent monster?" Qiao Mu asked.
"That's natural." Mingyue stared at the cat at Qiao Mu's feet, her voice was a little anxious.
Isn't this headhunting a bit stupid, wouldn't it be good to give that monster to me in private, why is it at the entrance of Xuantian Temple?If other disciples of the sect saw this, maybe they would take credit from me... Mingyue felt a little dissatisfied in her heart.
However, Qiao Mu still stood there motionless, and had no intention of handing over the demon cat to her.
"Since this is the so-called monster of impermanence, then... what kind of monster was it that appeared at the murder scene in the west of the city together with Shangxian Mingyue last night?"
Qiao Mu's eyes turned cold, and his speech became faster and faster:
"Mingyue Shangxian, your whereabouts were suspicious last night, and you suddenly appeared in the courtyard of the deceased Jiang Long."
"And next to the corpse of the deceased Jiang Long, I found this kind of long hair."
Qiao Mu took out the prepared animal hair from the small cloth bag and held it in his hand.
He held the animal hair in one hand, and lifted the limp little cat in his hand with the other.
This animal hair is obviously longer and thicker, and its texture is harder. The most special thing is that the hair shows a faint white luster under the sun.
Even without using any immortal methods to detect it, ordinary people can easily tell that this long hair is definitely not from the little cat in Qiao Mu's hand.
Having said that, Mingyue finally stopped.
She already realized that Qiao Mu was not a good person.
"What do you want to say?" She was a little anxious.
Qiao Mu said: "In order to thoroughly investigate the case of the impermanent monster, the head arrester will enter the Xuantian Temple resident, compare the hairs of the spirit beasts raised by Xuantianzong one by one, and find out the murderous monster in the case of the impermanent monster...."
Just as Qiao Mu said this, she was interrupted by the female cultivator Mingyue waving:
"shut up!"
"Xianmen Qingyu, how can you allow a mere official to arrest and slander you?"
"You can enter if you want to? The important place of the fairy gate is not a place where you can mess around."
Unknowingly, the crowd at the entrance of the Taoist temple has gathered more and more.
Many pilgrims were attracted by the commotion here. After all, a public servant was arrested at the gate of Xuantian Temple, arguing with the immortals of Xianmen... This would have been impossible in the past!
"The Shangxian of Xuantianzong indulged monsters and beasts to commit murder? Impossible?"
"But the arrester who spoke so convincingly also brought physical evidence..."
"The Shangxian of Xuantianzong is innocent, so why not open the gate of the Taoist temple and let the head catcher go in and have a look? It's not troublesome."
"That's the immortal of Xuantianzong, they have always protected my Heyang prefecture city for peace and tranquility..."
The people talked about it.
The direction of public opinion is almost one-sided in the direction of Xuantianzong.
after all...
Qiao Mu, who was dressed in a policeman's soap suit, represented the government and the law enforcement officers at the grassroots level.
In the 40 years since the Yiren War, the taxation of the Great Yan court has become increasingly heavy, and the people have suffered for many years. Naturally, the government does not have much good impression in the eyes of the people.
And the immortals of Xuantianzong are all masters who have attained the Tao. They can live forever and be free from mortal dust, which is simply the yearning in the hearts of the people.
There was a conflict between the two, and it was at the entrance of Xuantian Temple, so they naturally didn't know who was more inclined in their hearts.
"Captain over there, don't make trouble." At this time, another shout came from a distance.
A middle-aged man in official uniform with a big belly walked over quickly, with sweat on his forehead.
Today is the fifteenth day, and he originally came to Xuantian Temple to burn incense, but he didn't expect that he heard that something happened here before he arrived at Xuantian Temple, so he had to rush here.
"The headhunter over there is still not backing down!" The official shouted immediately:
"Do you still want to disturb the reputation of the Immortal Gate after disturbing the tranquility of the Immortal Gate?"
"What is the case investigation? Why haven't I heard that this matter has anything to do with Xianmen? Don't be fooled!"
Qiao Mu turned to look at the official who appeared suddenly, and suddenly asked:
"May I ask this lord, what is his official position?"
The fat official suddenly understood: this head catcher doesn't even know him, it seems that he is indeed just a small role.
He said coldly:
"This official is the Tongzhi of Heyang Mansion, and the official rank is five."
"According to the laws of the Great Yan, Gongmen arresters are not allowed to trespass on the Xianmen's residence. What are your intentions?"
"You have already made a big mistake as a head catcher. If you continue to make trouble in front of Xuantian Temple, I can dismiss you on the spot!"
In this Heyang Mansion, the fifth-rank Tongzhi is actually equivalent to the deputy of the fourth-rank magistrate, and his status is naturally respected.
Given his status in Heyang Prefecture, he naturally didn't have to jump out to defend a fairy disciple like Nvxiu Mingyue, which was too much of a loss.
A female cultivator, Mingyue, is not that important, but that green-eyed flying tiger is the spiritual pet of the fairy maiden.
Now that Qiao Mu exposed this incident in public, it was a matter of the face of Xianmen, so he had to stand up and scold Qiao Mu, a small headhunter.
Hearing such movements, female cultivator Mingyue felt a little certain.
She was still a little flustered when Qiao Mu told the truth in front of so many people just now.
Just looking at it now...
The opinions of the people in Heyang Mansion are obviously biased towards the immortal sect, and now even the officials of the Dayan court are scolding Qiaopifu and want him to be dismissed.
Even the people and officials of Dayan are on her side, why is she panicking?
On the contrary, it was Jopiff, who insisted on investigating the case, who was alone at this time and was almost drowned by everyone's saliva.
It's that Joepiff who should panic!
It's a mere man like him who is against the rules of Heyang Fucheng!
But at this moment, Jopiff's expression remained calm.
No matter how the official yelled and threatened, no matter how the people talked, he just stood there alone, unwavering and fearless.
"Change my job?"
At this moment, Qiao Mu suddenly smiled.
As a head catcher in Heyang Fucheng, he naturally has to be subject to many constraints and restrictions in doing things.
"Is there a possibility that it is not me who is wrong, but the Law of Great Flame?"
The fat official was stunned at first, then his face was gloomy, and the flesh on his face trembled with anger.
He heard the head catcher continue:
"If I'm a public arrester, I can't speak for justice... Then what's the use of this official uniform?"
The voice fell.
Standing in the middle of the street, he just tore off the police suit on his body in full view of everyone.
Under the soap clothes, he was dressed in a martial arts outfit that was easy to move. It was obvious that he had been prepared for a long time, and it was not a temporary idea.
"Capture head? Now I am not."
While taking off the official uniform, it also means that Qiao Mu is no longer a member of the public family at this time, and no longer represents the law of Great Yan.
Qiao Mu held the sword in his hand, and he stood alone at the entrance of Xuantian Temple, facing the turbulent voices of the people, the ashen face of the fat official, and the Immortal Xuantian Temple standing in the north of the city.
He approached the gate of Xuantian Temple step by step, but his voice became louder and louder with the steps, resounding in the ears of the people around him.
"Now I'm no longer an official headhunter, I'm just a man without an official or job."
"Can immortals disregard human lives and let beasts kill people?"
"If the law of Great Flame can't control the immortal, then I, Jopiff, will manage it!"
Everyone was in an uproar.
Even the Taoists guarding Xuantian Temple were stunned for a moment and couldn't react immediately.
The gazes of the people also changed slightly after Qiao Mu took off the policeman's soap coat.
The soap coat of the catcher represents the background of the government.
The people don't have much affection for the officials of the Dayan government. They are often more fearful than respectful. Most of them think that what these small officials do is to collect money from them, or they are just for promotion.
But if a head-hunter is under the pressure of a fifth-rank official and takes off his official uniform in public, he still wants to break into the Xuantian Temple...
Obviously, this has nothing to do with getting promoted and getting rich.
This head catcher who gave up his official uniform to break into the Xuantian Temple seems to be really different from the officials they usually see?
Sudden.
The little cat's ears stood up suddenly at the foot of Qiao Mu.
It was limp on the ground, but at this moment it seemed to sense something, its pupils narrowed and became vigilant, and it hid in the shadow behind Qiao Mu.
next moment.
A thunderous tiger roar sounded from a distance, and the rolling sound waves shook the air.
The sudden roar made those pilgrims cover their ears involuntarily, and even those who were close were blown back a few steps by the sound waves.
"Saint's Flying Tiger?"
Taoist Xuantian Guan who was about to step forward to stop Qiao Mu just now changed his expression.
This ferocious tiger of the Holy Maiden has a good reputation in the Xuantian Temple. He is still underage and has a brutal temperament. It is not right for them, low-level Taoists, to hide or fight.
The one whose face changed the most was that female cultivator Mingyue.
Although the roar of the blue-eyed flying tiger is far away, the source of the sound is not on the back mountain of Xuantian Temple, but near the foot of the mountain?
"Did this green-eyed flying tiger break free from the spirit beast cage?"
"Last night, I even specially fed the blood food of the sixth grade. I think it can be peaceful for a while. How could it go crazy again so quickly?" Mingyue's heart was shocked.
.....................
The side entrance of Xuantian Temple is also facing a street, which is a corner away from the main street where Qiao Mu is located.
There was a lot of turmoil on the side of Qiaomu, but this street was calm.
Today is the fifteenth day, and there are more pilgrims coming and going on the street than usual.
On the street paved with bluestone slabs, a family walked out of the house with a table, put the table in front of their house, and then placed incense candles, steamed buns, sake, etc. on the altar table, as well as a statue of a fairy in white clothes. .
"There are a lot of pilgrims offering incense in Xuantian Temple today. The smoke from the incense is too strong, which is not good for children. Don't go this time. Let's worship at the door of our house."
Qian Qian walked out carrying a pink and jade-carved girl, while the rest of the family lit incense candles.
Shrouded in smog, everyone in Qian Qian's family took turns closing their eyes and prostrating at the table, muttering words, and quietly burning incense to pray.
