White Bone Monkey King

Zongren felt the severe pain from broken bones in his body.

But none of these could compare to the horror in his heart when he actually saw the corpse of the old man in Yin Yang robe.

Sure enough, he died.

Sure enough, he died.

At this time, the body of the old man in yin and yang robe was in a miserable state in Jin An's hands.

His chest collapsed and all his internal organs were shattered.

The skull was half flat.

Jin An was cheating his death in order to avoid the corpse spots.

So even the skull was crushed by the opponent.

Just when Jin An passed through the ruins and was about to enter Jia's mansion, suddenly, there was a large number of footsteps in the dark night. Such a big movement and change occurred in Jia's mansion, which alerted the government and was surrounded by more than a dozen night watchmen and village warriors. come over.

"You are killing people in the street, stop, who are you?"

When those government officials arrived at Jia Mansion, they saw the corpse of the old man with cadaverous spots in Jin An's hand, and they immediately drew their swords and surrounded Jin An.

Jin An stopped and looked calmly at the government officials surrounding him.

At this time, the young man Zongren in Jia's mansion almost laughed out loud in surprise when he saw the government servants who finally arrived belatedly.

cough.

Ahem.

When he got agitated, his internal organs were injured, and he coughed out several mouthfuls of blood. Jin An just kicked the large earth and stone at him, which shocked his internal organs.

"Master, help me, we are from the Jiang family, we are from the Jiang family!"

"He is a demon who kills without batting an eye. The officials should be careful if he kills people violently. Look at the corpse in his hand. That man is the master of the eighth young lady of the Jiang family. This demon will say nothing when he sees us. Not only did he severely injure the eighth young lady of the Jiang family, but he also shamelessly killed the senior master of the eighth young lady of the Jiang family in a sneak attack!"

When Zong Renru saw the rescue, he desperately grasped the last straw after falling into the water. He was afraid that he would start spitting blood, betraying the Jiang family identity, and accusing Jin An of being a demon.

really.

When the government officials heard that this matter involved the Jiang family, their expressions changed drastically.

The atmosphere surrounding Jin'an became even more tense and tense.

"My lords, everything I said is true."

"If you don't believe me, you can ask the Jia family present. They all saw it. It was the demon who took the lead in attacking us just now!"

Zong Ren, who had most of his bones broken and was covered in blood, screamed miserably.

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, these are all misunderstandings..."

"Taoist Master Jin'an is the savior of our Jia family, how could he be a demon?"

The Jia family anxiously explained to Jin An.

But Jin An did take action first, and Zong Ren didn't lie, which made their explanation seem weak. They could only repeat that they believed Jin An's character was definitely not an evil heretic.

The old Taoist priest was still calm, and he directly got to the point: "Guys, there are evil corpses making trouble in the Jia family today. My little brother and I are two Taoist priests from the Wu Zang Taoist Temple. We are here today to slay demons and pacify Jia's family. The Jia family can testify for us about the evil corpse chaos in the family, and the people who were near the Wu Zang Taoist Temple this morning can also testify for us. Look at the corpse in my little brother's hand, it doesn't look like a normal dead body at all. It’s an evil corpse that never changes.”

Hearing this, Jin An looked in the direction of the old Taoist priest.

The old Taoist priest kept winking at Jin An, and Jin An suddenly understood.

boom.

He threw the corpse-stained old man in his hand at the feet of a head catcher.

"You can tell right from wrong by looking at the corpse."

Jin An had a calm look on his face. He had never done anything wrong, and he was not afraid of his shadow being distorted.

Not afraid of torture by ghosts and gods.

When the government officials saw the corpse of the old man with corpse spots thrown at their feet, their scalps went numb and exploded. Is this the body of a person who had just died? It had green corpse spots all over it, and it was dark, ugly, and disgusting. , this must be a mummy that has been there for many years!

The timid Xiang Yong even exclaimed, feeling a chill on his back. He couldn't help but secretly glance at his back, as if there was an evil corpse lying on his back.

At this time, the Jia family did not hesitate to offend the Jiang family, but also took the initiative to speak for Jin'an.

When the body of the seventh lady of the Jiang family was dug up from the ancestral grave, there was no room for relief for the great hatred of digging up the ancestral grave.

They were all bullied to their ancestral graves.

If they still act like cowards, then the Jia family's strength will be over.

"That's right, Taoist priest Jin An and Taoist Chen are both exorcist priests invited by our brothers who made a special trip to Wu Zang Taoist Temple. These two are the exorcist priests with real skills and masters of exorcism!"

"On the other hand, you Jiang family, what's the purpose of visiting our Jia family uninvited today? I think the explosion and chaos in our Jia family tonight is because you three came to our Jia family on purpose to cause trouble!"

With one person standing up, the remaining direct brothers of the Jia family also stood up to support Jin An.

"That's right, Taoist priest Jin'an and Taoist priest Chen were invited by my Jia family. It's true that you, the Jiang family, are outsiders!"

"What a Jiang family. You got together with an evil cultivator who is neither human nor ghost, and broke into my Jia family. I want to ask, what do you, the Jiang family, want to do when you come to our Jia family?"

"Why did you appear in the courtyard where my eldest brother lives? Where are my eldest brother's people? Where are the maids and servants in my eldest brother's private courtyard? Tell me! Do you, the Jiang family, want to kidnap my eldest brother? Do you want to annex my family? He is a businessman with a vicious heart! Hand over my eldest brother immediately. If my eldest brother hurts even a hair on his head, your life will be worse than death!"

"The Jiang family and the evil cultivators of Jianghu are getting together. I think they want to mess up the foundation of the Kangding Kingdom and the outline of the court. Fortunately, Taoist Priest Jin'an has strong magic power and can tell at a glance that the old man is not a human being. Otherwise, the Jiang family and the evil snakes and rats of Jianghu will continue to be involved. They are all working together to deceive the people of the world, and I don’t know what they are planning behind the scenes! They will do some nasty things that will harm the stability of the people of Wuzhou Prefecture and the stability of the Kangding Kingdom!"

As the saying goes, hit the snake seven inches.

If you beat the snake, you won't die, but you will suffer backlash.

At this time, the Jiang family should be completely beaten to death, so the Jia family brothers joined forces and slapped a big hat on the Jiang family from the very beginning. Regardless of whether it was true or not, it was enough to make the Jiang family drink.

The Jia family now hates the Jiang family to death.

These Jiang family members actually dig up their ancestral graves and bury the dead Jiang family members in their mother's coffin. This is no different from killing their mother.

How could Zongren's one mouth be able to defend himself against so many mouths from the Jia family?

His face turned pale, and he explained in shock and anger: "Our eighth lady has good intentions. We know that there have been evil incidents in the Jia family recently, so we invited an expert in exorcism to come to the Jia family to exorcise demons."

"To say that the eighth young lady's master is an evil cultivator is just your one-sided statement. Even if he is really an evil cultivator, we didn't know it beforehand. You are framed and spreading rumors about the Jiang family. The Jiang family will not let you go! "

"Masters, you should immediately arrest the two Wu Zang Taoist priests who were the first to injure people. Miss Eighth and I are the victims."

The young Zongren was miserable. He tried hard to pretend to be innocent, hoping to win sympathy.

"Mr. Jia is still alive. He was poisoned by corpse poison and has been asleep. He is in the attic now. We are here to rescue Mr. Jia. You Jia family should thank us for protecting Mr. Jia. Otherwise, Mr. Jia would have been He will die."

"Because we discovered that the Jia Zhidie corpse hiding in Jia's house wanted to harm Mr. Jia, we came here specifically to protect Mr. Jia's safety and prevent the deceased Jia Zhidie corpse from hurting others."

Zongren tried his best to explain.

Try your best to clear away the suspicion for him and the Jiang family.

Now it is no longer a simple murder case, but involves the struggle for the interests of two major families in Fucheng. These small government servants in front of them have no power to control the two major families.

They did not dare to arrest young Zongren and the eighth young lady of the Jiang family, for fear of offending the huge Jiang family.

He didn't dare to arrest Jin An. Now the whole Jia family was speaking for Jin An, and it was obvious that they wanted to go against the Jiang family.

Instead, as they were in a dilemma, after hearing the noise, more and more people gathered around, and these government officials were sweating like rain from their foreheads.

Fortunately, the savior arrived in time.

Under the night, there was the deafening sound of uniform footsteps, as well as the clang of swords, guns and armor. Large numbers of soldiers from the military camps outside the city came into the city well-trained to quell the chaos.

Jin An is very familiar with the person taking the lead.

It's the captain general.

By this time, the captain's injuries had recovered.

Today, he is not wearing the green python robe, but the more solemn and majestic black robe with thunder patterns, and his hair is tied up with the most common wooden hairpin among the people.

Under the leadership of this captain-general, this army seemed to be carrying the unstoppable fortune of the imperial court, suppressing those demons and monsters hiding in the dark that were ready to move, so that they did not dare to move rashly.

The captain-general came riding a tall horse.

After he came to Jia's house, he soon learned what happened.

"What are you doing? Just stand still and don't move."

Suddenly some soldiers shouted with their swords at war.

It turned out to be Jin An, who was in the encirclement. He moved and stood on a high ground on the ruins of the ruins.

Jin An calmly replied: "I don't like to be overlooked."

"This position is just right now."

Jin An, who stood at the top of the ruins, was eye level with the captain riding on the horse.

This was the first official meeting between Jin An and the captain who controlled the military power of the city.

"Be bold!"

"presumptuous!"

The cavalry guards guarding the captain thought they had hit a thorn, shouted loudly, and were about to step forward to subdue Jin An.

The captain raised his hand and stopped his brothers from attacking Jin'an's opponents.

"You are no match for him. This young Taoist priest really wants to escape. No one here can keep him."

After the captain finished speaking, he laughed and looked at Jin An: "Haha, you are an interesting little Taoist priest. You are different from the old-fashioned, unsmiling Taoist priests that I meet in daily life. They only meditate and meditate every day. , let’s do this, in order to show my feelings, I will reward you with a ‘prison sentence’.”

"Come here, take the two Taoist priests from Wu Zang Taoist Temple and the two Jiang family members and put them all in jail. Take the old man's body with you as well."

The young man Zongren opened his mouth to speak, wanting to reveal his identity as the eighth young lady of the Jiang family. He also wanted to say something to delay the Jiang family's rescue, but before he could speak, General Duwei's eyes were killing and decisive, and he looked at her without emotion. Looking at him: "What, you want to disobey me?"

"Or do you want to use your identity as a Jiang family to make me take advantage of you?"

The captain general was talking and laughing with Jin An just now.

He turned around and turned into a ruthless god of murder in the army.

Zong Ren was so frightened that he did not dare to look directly into the eyes of the captain. He answered bravely: "No, I don't dare. I just want to remind the captain that there is something evil going on in the Jia family..."

"The Water Goddess Jia Zhidie hasn't been eliminated yet, and I'm worried that the officers and soldiers in the army will suffer a hidden loss, so I want to give the captain a warning..."

Even though Zong Ren lowered his head, he could still feel the stinging pain on his back.

The captain's eyes were like daggers, staring at him.

After about a few breaths, Zong Ren felt the thorns on his body disappear, and the captain's eyes moved away from him, no longer paying attention to him.

Zong Ren secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It was only at this moment that the captain said calmly: "Water Goddess? I've long wanted to see what this Dragon King looks like."

"I wonder if the Dragon King will show up tonight if I captured one of the Dragon King's Water Goddess. It just saves me going down to the Yinyi River to find him."

Zong Ren's body shook slightly when he heard this.

Looking uneasy.

…

…

Fucheng Prison.

The air is filled with various rotten smells, including damp and musty smells, the sour smell of rotten vegetable leaves and rotten straw mats, and the rotten smell of dead mice.

There is also the turbid odor caused by the lack of air circulation all year round.

The dim torches with limited illumination added a sense of darkness to the long corridor of the underground prison.

Jin An always wanted to complain.

Couldn't the ancients make prisons magnificent and upright?

There is sunshine in the human heart.

Only then can we yearn for the sunshine more.

If you let criminals live in a dark and depressing environment all day long, they will think about negative emotions all day long, and they will suffer from mental illness even if they are not ill. This will increase the probability of committing a second crime after serving their sentence.

This still suffers from the fact that there is no concept of mental illness in this era.

At this time, Jin An was locked in the same cell as the old Taoist priest.

"Old Taoist, are you not nervous at all?"

In the cell, the old Taoist priest who was pulling haystacks to catch cockroaches looked up at Jin An: "Why are you nervous?"

While Jin An meditated calmly and regained his strength as quickly as possible, he looked at the old Taoist priest and said, "I am now charged with murder, and you, old Taoist, are considered half an accessory. Even if you don't have your head cut off at the food market, you will be exiled to the frontier." ."

"I heard that the border areas are in need of water and food. Apart from the long stretches of yellow sand, there are only dried corpses under the desert."

"Ha, finally caught one."

The old Taoist priest did not answer Jin An's words immediately. Instead, he took off his shoes, then took off his sock bag, and threw the cockroach into the sock bag. Only then did the old Taoist answer Jin An's question.

"If you want to behead Lacaishikou, it's only because you, little brother, beheaded before me, the old man. You, little brother, are not in a hurry. What's the rush for me, the old man?"

"Anyway, I have lived half a decade longer than you, my little brother. I have seen flowers, plants, soy, rice, oil, salt, and delicacies from the mountains and seas in this life. I have earned decades more than you, my little brother. I will not lose anything in this life." ."

The old Taoist priest said leisurely and contentedly, but he was very open-minded.

He put his shoes back on.

Still holding his white sock bag in his hand.

The smoke made Jin An move his buttocks and sit at the door of the cell where the air was the best, breathing heavily.

"Speaking of beheading, I remember a folk legend..."

Jin An was indeed as the old Taoist said, with a calm expression on his face. After he killed someone and was imprisoned by the government, he still had time to tell stories to the old Taoist.

"This folk story tells that in the past, a prisoner made a big mistake and was taken to Caishikou to be beheaded. He didn't want to die, so someone told him that when he was beheaded at Caishikou, he felt a pain in the skin of his neck. At the same moment, the person immediately rolled to the side. As long as he was fast enough, he could be faster than the knife in the executioner's hand, and he could escape the disaster and deceive God once. Then he ran forward without looking back, and kept running out of the city to find someone. Taking the name of a foreigner who died, concealing his name, and living the rest of his life for him, so that he can avoid death. This is called deceiving the world and stealing his name, hiding his name from the outside world. "

"People who died brutally because their life span was not over yet still have their life span in the book of life and death in the hands of the judge."

"Sure enough, on the day of interrogation, the prisoner survived after faithfully complying with the instructions. He hid in the countryside where no one knew him and kept his name anonymous. He pretended to be someone else's name and longevity. Not only did he marry a wife, but he also gave birth to a pair of children."

"Tell me, old man, if we are really taken to Caishikou to be beheaded, which one of us will be faster than the knife in the executioner's hand?"

The old Taoist priest who had put on his cloth shoes again at this time, after hearing Jin An's story, was not moved at all: "Little brother, have you ever heard of 'The Queen of Autumn asks to behead' and 'The Queen of Autumn settles accounts'?"

"When the government pronounces your crime, it will stamp the imperial seal on your numerous charges. This seal is like a tattoo on the prisoner's forehead, which cannot be erased for a lifetime. Autumn is the four seasons of the year. The most murderous season, after autumn, the days are getting shorter and shorter, and people's shadows are getting shorter and shorter. As the saying goes, the name of a person is the shadow of a tree. When your shadow is not short enough to cover the shadow you are using. When a person is ungrateful, it is easiest to stir up murderous intentions in the world and settle accounts later in life."

Jin An looked at the old Taoist priest in surprise.

It turns out that the Queen of Autumn asks for beheading and the Queen of Autumn settles accounts, and there are also such allusions.

"But I don't think we two can die." The old Taoist priest said confidently.

"The Jia family is now deadlocked with the Jiang family. No matter what, we stood up for the Jia family this time and offended the Jiang family. The Jia family will try to keep us out, whether it's public or private."

"It depends on whether the Jia family and the Jiang family are good at mediating."

"So in order to increase the probability of our survival, before I was taken away by the officers and soldiers, I quietly asked the Jia family to go to the He Mansion to find the eldest lady. When the eldest lady heard that little brother, you were imprisoned in the prison of Fucheng, the eldest lady would definitely take action to save the little boy. Brother you.”

"The Jiang family is very knowledgeable. Faced with the joint pressure from the He family and the Jia family, the three major herbal merchants in Fucheng, the Jiang family has to weigh the gains and losses of a life-and-death situation. Besides, this time the Jiang family itself is also at fault. In a place where they are collaborating with evil heretics from all religions and religions, this matter can be big or small. At the most, it can cause your head to fall off. At most, it is just a small crime of being deceived without knowing it, and you will be punished insignificantly."

"Besides, the Xue family also has an old friend of ours, Li Huanwei. Li Huanwei is also the guard commander of the Xue family. Li Huanwei should be able to speak a few words in the Xue family... Ha, you have thrown yourself into a trap again. Only."

The old Taoist priest caught two more cockroaches this time, beaming with joy, and quickly put them into his sock bag. Now he had caught three cockroaches in total.

"So, little brother, you are not in a hurry. Why should I be in a hurry?"

The old Taoist priest blinked at Jin An.

The two foxes, the old one and the young one, smiled at each other in a tacit understanding, and they both guessed what the other was thinking.
