Liaozhai Great Sage

If you don't give it, I will kill that centipede spirit today.

"It would be the best if Master Du is willing to release Li Chao." Yan Kuan nodded.

Li Xiuyuan looked through it again, but there were no suitable candidates, and then he put down the roster and said, "For the time being, just these people, Yan Chixia, Xia Houwu, Li Chao, after that I will know some people in the capital, which is almost enough. "

Counting Sha Jin, Wu Xiang, and Zuo Qianhu being transferred...there are already many masters.

They are not people who practice Taoism, but people who practice martial arts.

What he wants now is a martial artist who can handle worldly affairs for him.

People who practice Taoism have too many taboos, and there are also taboos about ghosts and spirits.

But to achieve the goal within a month, the power of ghosts and gods is needed, and the force of the world is also indispensable.

Chapter 7 Fifteen Rewards Offered

Among the things I encountered today, the only one that made me feel more comfortable was Yan Kuan who met these six doors.

This person is very willing to cooperate with Li Xiuyuan's work.

Whether it was dispatching manpower, recruiting experts, or cooperating with the investigation, there was no difficulty in it. Those who could cooperate as much as they could tried their best to cooperate, and even actively reminded Li Xiuyuan to pay attention in some places.

"Having said that, Master Li really thinks that the fire at the Shangyuan Festival was really caused by the monsters of the Wutong Sect?" Suddenly, just as Li Xiuyuan was about to leave the six doors, at the end, Yan Kuan suddenly asked such a question question.

Li Xiuyuan smiled and said, "Why does Lord Yan ask such a question?"

"There are big fires in the capital city every year. Although the demons of Wutong sect gather together to cause chaos many times, they are just making trouble in the market. They are fighting for some businesses such as fireworks, gambling stalls, dental shops, etc. Although they often carry out some temples Offering sacrifices and building temples, but overall the threat to the capital is not that great." Yan Kuan said: "The people of Wutong Sect still know how to measure, and the fire on the Shangyuan Festival is unlikely to be caused by Wutong Sect."

"That's the case, isn't the Wutong Sect not clean? Master Yan dare to say that Wutong Sect's subordinates have not killed dozens of people?" Li Xiuyuan said: "If there is a fight, there will be sacrifices, and if there are sacrifices, there will be disasters. It doesn’t matter whether the fire on the Shangyuan Festival was caused by Wutongjiao, what is important is that the officials and the civil and military officials above the court think it was caused by Wutongjiao.”

"This scapegoat, the Wutong Sect has to be memorized." Li Xiuyuan said; "Master Yan thinks that the Wutong Sect knows how to measure, so it's not worth spending so much effort to wipe them out?"

"I don't mean that, I just think that if this case was not done by Wu Tongjiao, it would be almost impossible for Mr. Li to thoroughly investigate this case." Yan Kuan said.

Li Xiuyuan smiled and said, "Your Majesty Yan is serious and fair. This is what I admire, but the court is not the place for a gentleman to stay. It doesn't matter whether the Wutong Sect is the main culprit or not. The important thing is that the Wutong Sect should not exist in the capital." ... What I worry about now is not whether the case will be solved or not, but how many enemies are about to emerge."

"The balance of the capital has been broken because of my arrival. If you want to take advantage of the chaos to win, you need to be strong enough first."

"Although I think my strength is still strong, it's not enough... It's getting late today, so I won't bother Mr. Yan. I believe Mr. Yan is busy these days, and I will send you when Mr. Yan is ready. Someone let me know, I think Master Yan will not make me wait too long, right?"

"Master Li, please rest assured, the next official will definitely do his best." Yan Kuan said.

Li Xiuyuan gave a salute and said: "Then there is Mr. Lao Yan. If Mr. Yan doesn't mind, I can use Cui Wei and some other arresters who are familiar with the local situation. Except for the case of the Shangyuan Festival fire, the prefect Fang Sheng The case of Yu's assassination is also being investigated, I think the first case can be delayed for a few days, and I will start investigating the second case immediately."

"In case the civil and military officials above the imperial court see that I am not doing well, they can't help but write a letter of impeachment immediately."

"It should be. Before the big case is solved, the entire six gates will be dispatched by Mr. Li. This is the official's intention. How dare the subordinate officials violate it." Yan Kuan said seriously.

Sure enough, Li Xiuyuan felt much more relaxed at the six doors with the nod of Zhao Guanjia.

When Li Xiuyuan left the six doors, there was a team of people behind him.

It is Cui Wei, the chief arrester of the capital, and a group of capable people who know heresy techniques. Although their skills are not high, they are very good at dealing with ordinary people, and they know very well about the affairs of the capital. Li Xiuyuan They need to act as their eyes and ears.

"Cui Wei, in the name of the six gates, ask someone to offer a reward in all the streets and alleys of the capital for arresting someone for me, regardless of life or death." On the way, Li Xiuyuan said suddenly.

"I don't know who is the person that your lord wants to arrest?" Cui Wei said in a salute, clasping his fists aside.

Li Xiuyuan then took out a portrait from the ghost king's bag: "The great thief Shihu. This person followed the Nine Mountain King Li Liangjin and gathered a crowd to rebel. After Li Liangjin was destroyed by me, the rest of his followers fled around. I destroyed the leader of the White Lotus Sect and Maitreya Sect. But a water thief, Mr. Chen, also escaped, and the other is the big thief Shi Hu, I received news that he is now hiding in the capital."

"If you find out, whoever can take his head will reward you with ten thousand gold. The money doesn't have to be given out through the six gates. I will give it out privately. Whoever can find out his whereabouts will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver."

"Wan Jin?" Cui Wei's eyelids twitched.

Since the establishment of Six Doors, there has never been a bandit who has reached such a high bounty. Usually, a robber is worth 1000 taels of silver if he is killed. Even if this stone tiger has rebellion experience, it is at most 5000 taels of silver. , is far from Wanjin.

"Why, can't you?" Li Xiuyuan said.

Cui Wei said, "Responding to my lord's words, do you really want to offer a reward of ten thousand gold for arresting this thief Shihu?"

"Of course, I'm still in the mood to tell lies to you right now? If you meet this stone tiger, you will know that he is worth the money. This person is possessed by a thousand-year-old demon, and he has also practiced martial arts. He has a martial arts master." His strength, his personality is fierce, cunning, kind and forbearing, and he has opposed me many times. I have sent troops to investigate and suppress, but he escaped first, and such a guy staying in the capital is always a hidden danger. We must find out Get rid of it." Li Xiuyuan said.

Asking the official to come to the six gates, in fact, it also has a taste of using the public for personal gain.

Without the strength of Six Doors, it would be very difficult for him to get rid of Shihu.

"Possessed by a thousand-year-old demon?" The expressions of the subordinates behind Cui Wei were still angry, and their hearts turned cold.

For them, a thousand-year-old demon is no less than a first-class god and Buddha in the sky, and such a person must be taken by an immortal.

If so, it's no wonder why this person deserves a reward of ten thousand gold.

Wan Jin is a bait for the money-grubbing people in the capital to find the stone tiger.

There is no need to kill Shihu, as long as he finds out whereabouts, I believe that Master Li has his own means to deal with it.

"I've made a note of my humble position, and tomorrow I will send someone to print the portrait and post a notice." Cui Wei said.

Li Xiuyuan said: "There is one more thing that I didn't talk about with Lord Yan before, because it was a bit inconvenient. You prepared a booklet for me these two days. I want all the big and small forces in the capital to be on it. , ghosts, spirits, and temples that confuse the people must not be let go."

"Whether you have a previous criminal record or not, you have to be on it, and you can't miss it."

"Yes, my lord, I will ask someone to register and make a record when I turn back. There are relevant files in the warehouse over the six doors. It only takes a little time to prepare." Cui Wei said.

"Very good, let's do it as soon as possible. Wu Xiang, you go back to the bodyguard bureau and ask Sha Jin to bring all the soldiers and some trustworthy bodyguards. From today onwards, I will take over the magistrate's yamen. Since I am the magistrate, I can't I will live in the bodyguard again, so as not to be criticized by others." Li Xiuyuan said.

"Okay, boss." Wu Xiang hugged his fist and immediately turned and left.

When Li Xiuyuan came to the magistrate's yamen in the capital, he took a look but frowned slightly.

Although the vermilion lacquer gate and the stone lions stand tall, looking majestic, but he saw a resentment filling the Yamen. Although this resentment can't be seen, if someone steps into the Yamen, he will feel gloomy, depressing, and a kind of Feelings of fear.

But when he saw the stone lions in the town mansion, the eyes of these two stone lions were incomplete, and a piece fell off, and there was no aura in the whole body.

"How many fake cases and unjust cases have been handled in this place? The yamen in the imperial city is in such decline. No wonder Fang Shengyu was assassinated. Fang Shengyu must have something to do with the yamen's appearance. When a person wanted to be the magistrate, he did too many evil things, and lost his fortune, official fortune, and lifespan. Even if he was not assassinated, he would be seriously ill sooner or later and die on the bed." Li Xiuyuan wrinkled frown.

"Follow me in and have a look."

He gestured, and led Cui Wei and others into the magistrate's yamen.

Before they walked in, two yamen servants' eyes lit up, and hurriedly greeted you respectfully: "The villain pays respects to the lord, but I don't know that the lord is coming, and the villain is too late to greet you, so please forgive me."

When the two yamen servants saw that Li Xiuyuan was wearing a vermilion official uniform, they knew that he was a high official of the imperial court, so they naturally greeted him respectfully.

Chapter 7 Greedy Ghost

Li Xiuyuan walked into the dark lobby.
