I want to know who killed me

Shao Ting stared at him sadly: "Master, you don't have to tell the truth."

Xiao Zhanqiu said: "I think I still have to say it, so I can't let you misunderstand."

Shao Ting: "..."

Why not let this beautiful misunderstanding continue!Hierarch, you deserve a beating!

And labor and capital just wanted to escape that one time, as for remembering it until now? ... No, according to what the leader said, in fact, he didn't get away with it last time? !

Shao Ting's smile disappeared completely: "Then why did you come to me again afterwards, did you want to take me back?"

Xiao Jiaozhu said: "No, later I suddenly remembered that you love me so much and want to give birth to me. Maybe you already have a child in your stomach. If you are not willing to run away, something must have happened to you."

Shao Ting: "..."

Xiao Zhanqiu said: "You don't need to thank me."

Shao Ting said: "Hehe."

He was really out of his mind to argue with Xiao Jiaozhu, he shouldn't forget that Xiao Jiaozhu's brain circuit is different from ordinary people!

In the next few days, there was no progress in the Bodhi Temple case.

The magistrate of Huaiping County and the Bodhi Temple were guarded by hidden guards, but the former did not change, and the latter remained closed, with no one in sight.

Shao Ting almost began to wonder if his reasoning was wrong.

Could it be that the county magistrate of Huaiping was really just an ordinary official, and everyone in the Bodhi Temple also absconded overnight?The former is fine, the possibility of the latter is too small, it is completely unscientific!

On the fifth night of the Bodhi Monastery's visit to Loukong, the secret guard finally made a discovery.

Shao Ting was woken up in the middle of the night.

Opening his eyes in a daze, he saw two black figures, one short and one tall, appearing in front of the bed, and a pillow was thrown over in fright.

"You can't sleep well even if you sleep." Xiao Zhanqiu's helpless voice sounded.

Shao Ting hugged the quilt, stared at the figure who was next to the pillow with lingering fear, and gradually saw the faces of the two clearly through the moonlight - Xiao Jiaozhu was sitting by the bed, and a hidden guard was standing at the head of the bed. He was reporting something in a low voice, but was interrupted by him.

"...Who told you not to turn on the lamps." Shao Ting sneered.

Xiao Zhanqiu hit him on the head with a pillow, and dismissed the hidden guard casually.

Shao Ting straightened his tousled hair, curled his lips and said, "Why, I chased people away as soon as I woke up, are you talking about something I can't listen to?"

"There's nothing you can't listen to, it's just that I just finished." Xiao Zhanqiu knocked on his forehead, "Our previous speculations were all correct, the group of bald donkeys in the Bodhi Temple have been around for so many days, and finally they couldn't hold back. , where do you think they went?"

Shao Ting blurted out: "County government office!"

Xiao Zhanqiu said: "That's right. I thought they could hide so deep that they couldn't even find the hidden guards. Their martial arts must be extraordinary. Now it seems that I was thinking too much. They are just more cautious than ordinary people. As for martial arts , it is very likely that you can't even beat the bamboo fungus, and it is even more impossible to find the hidden guard."

...You say that, Zhusheng is so sad.

Shao Ting thought silently, in fact, he is mostly guilty about bamboo fungus now.Because later he learned from Leader Xiao that Zhusheng was punished for protecting him, and was sent back to the main altar by Leader Xiao to fetch things before he recovered from his injuries.

Recalling the time when Ya Xiang was beaten and vomited blood last time, Shao Ting sweated for the bamboo fungus.

Fortunately, the two guards who followed them belonged to the Huainan Prince's Mansion. Although they could not escape the punishment, they would not be directly beaten by the leader until they vomited a lot of blood. It was a blessing.

Xiao Zhanqiu didn't know that Shao Ting had labeled him as a murderer in his heart, and continued: "I think it will be the day after tomorrow at the latest, and there should be movement from the county government."

Facts have proved that Master Xiao's prediction was very accurate.

The next afternoon, the person Xiao Zhanqiu arranged to pretend to be at the inn was summoned by the county government, saying that their lost wife had been found—naturally, the body must be found.

Shao Ting followed Xiao Zhanqiu to the county government morgue, and almost vomited after just one look.

Leaning on Xiao Zhanqiu's shoulders, he stroked his chest and panted heavily.

Xiao Zhanqiu stared expressionlessly at the female corpse lying on the shelf, already covered in blisters so that the original face could not be seen, without saying a word.

The county magistrate of Huaiping was still talking nonsense: "Unfortunately, Mrs. Zun should have accidentally fallen into the water after the temple fair was over. Now a few days have passed, although she can't see her face clearly, but from her clothes and tokens Looking at it, there should be a few people who are looking for, please forgive me."

Xiao Zhanqiu raised his eyes and glanced at the county magistrate lightly.

With just one glance, the county magistrate of Huaiping instantly felt chills from the top of his head to the soles of his feet. It was an unprecedented fear, as if standing in front of him was not a businessman, but a bloodthirsty Shura who had fought bloody battles.

Sensing the abnormality of the county magistrate, the master couldn't help tugging at his back.

The county magistrate came back to his senses, only to realize that he was in a cold sweat. He barely maintained his expression and said, "If it is confirmed, please bring the body back and bury it properly."

Xiao Zhanqiu finally withdrew his gaze from him, turned his head to look outside the morgue, and suddenly blew his whistle.

Several dark shadows came in from the courtyard wall, each holding a big monk tied into a rice dumpling in their hands, among them was a burly monk whom Master Shuoyang and Shao Ting had only seen once.Their mouths were all stuffed with cloth, and when they saw the county magistrate, they immediately uttered a cry for help.

Shao Ting clearly saw the shock and panic in the eyes of the magistrate of Huaiping. Although it was quickly covered up, it was enough.

"Who are you!" Huaiping county magistrate yelled, "This is the county government, how can you allow these unruly people to act wildly, and let the masters in your hands be released!"

As soon as the words fell, the official's voice came from outside the door.

"The king of Huainan, the magistrate of Huainan has arrived—"

The magistrate of Huaiping choked for an instant, his face turned green and pale.

Not long after, officials headed by Liu Chengying rushed in.As a feudal lord, Liu Chengying was able to mobilize local officials even though he didn't care about local affairs, like calling the magistrate overnight, it didn't take too long.

The magistrate of Huainan was an old man in his destiny, with a Chinese face and a look of justice.

As soon as Liu Chengying sat down on the chair brought by the yamen servant, the magistrate asked him for instructions with his eyes. After getting permission, he stepped forward a few steps and said righteously: "Bold gangster, you are dying, and you still haven't pleaded guilty!"

Shao Ting: "?"

Bandits?Shouldn't it be a prisoner?Confused.

The magistrate of Huaiping, however, turned pale for some reason, looked helplessly at Master Shuoyang who was pressed to the ground, and was still quibbling: "Master Zhifu, where did you say that?"

The magistrate snorted coldly: "You should know better than anyone else what the government is talking about! The robber case in Qushan three years ago, Lin Chaosheng, isn't that your name at all?"

As soon as these words came out, the face of Huaiping county magistrate completely changed.

Master Shuoyang was still struggling needlessly, but the magistrate of Huaiping understood the matter until now, no matter how much he tried to argue, it was useless. His legs gave way, and he knelt down on the ground, bowing his head and pleading guilty.

Shao Ting didn't understand what was going on until the magistrate began to try the case.

He had always thought that the Huaiping County Magistrate and the Bodhi Temple were colluding with officials and bandits to make profits and share dividends, but he didn't think that the Huaiping County Magistrate was a fake and shoddy!As early as three years ago, the real Huaiping county magistrate's family of four were murdered by the group of people who were now the county magistrate and master, and who used to be Qushan robbers.

After killing someone, the group of robbers found out that it was the newly appointed official. They panicked for a few days, and finally decided to let Master Shuoyang's nephew replace him.In this era of underdeveloped communications, no one knows what the new county magistrate looks like, as long as there is a paper of appointment, he can take office.In addition, the fake county magistrate was the only one among the robbers who had studied, and he was almost selected as a scholar back then, and his appearance was not too fierce, so he became the new Huaiping county magistrate, and he served for three years.

And it was during these three years that this group of robbers changed their appearance and settled in the originally unknown Bodhi Temple, killing the original abbot and monks, completely occupying the magpie's nest.

As for the kidnapping and trafficking of women, it is even more straightforward.

This group of fake monks first spread the rumors that the Bodhi Temple is effective in seeking children, attracting many women with childbearing difficulties, and then fascinating them, and then doing unruly things. will also be greatly improved.The group of women lost their minds after being stunned. As long as they clean up afterwards, they will not miss any flaws. And once they go back, if they find happiness, they will be more convinced of the effectiveness of the Bodhi Temple.

In just half a year, the reputation of the Bodhi Temple was established.

At this time, the monks no longer have to be hungry, but start to choose targets selectively.Just as Xiaorong said, the rich are divided into one group and the poor are divided into another group. The former's ransom and the latter's prostitution money make this group of monks earn a lot of money.

According to the account of the false county magistrate, the number of women they have murdered in the past three years has been countless, and there are nearly a hundred poor women who have been sold.When encountering people who come to report to the officials, they will use female corpses to pass the test, and they also have another way to deal with those who are entangled.

After Shao Ting heard it, he just felt nauseated.

The behavior of this group of people is too light to be described as beasts, not to mention the women who were harmed, just those female corpses... Shao Ting did not believe that they could find corpses for disposal anytime and anywhere, and there must be many innocent people lives!

The case was clearly explained, and the prefect made a verdict on the spot.

There were 14 monks in the Bodhi Temple, as well as false county magistrates and masters, a total of 16 people were sentenced to death and executed at the intersection of the street three days later.

Of course, before the execution, the whereabouts of the sold women need to be interrogated from their mouths.

Returning to Huainan Palace, Shao Ting couldn't calm down for a long time.

Xiao Zhanqiu reached out and rubbed his hair, saying: "You have already rescued them, what's there to be unhappy about?"

"I'm not unhappy, it's just that I feel uncomfortable." Shao Ting was in no mood to straighten his hair. "You said that everyone can live a good life? Why do there exist villains? Thinking of those victims, I wish I could travel back in time and let the Catch those robbers!"

Xiao Zhanqiu said: "There are so many villains in the world, you can't catch them."

Shao Ting said dejectedly: "Yes, and I can't go back to the past, so I can only think about it."

Xiao Zhanqiu looked at his profile, and after a while, suddenly asked: "Shao Ting, in your eyes, am I a good person or a wicked person?"

Shao Ting was taken aback for a moment, not understanding why he asked this question.

"Eight rules of No. 30 of the Devil's Cult, do not kill innocent people, but people of the white way can kill at will." Xiao Zhanqiu touched his face, his eyes were unprecedentedly deep, "But I was once pushed to the extreme, maddened, wide open Killing, although most Bai Daoists died at that time, there were many innocent people among them."

This is what happened two months before his death in his previous life, and now he mentions it again, and his memory is still fresh.

After a pause, Xiao Zhanqiu asked, "Now tell me, am I a good person or a wicked person?"

Shao Ting was dumb.
