I am the county magistrate in Liaozhai

In Cheng Jin's view, what He Zixiao's words were a clumsy lie, but in Huang Jiulang's ears, it was his lover's promise of life and death to him.

County Magistrate Cheng: ... Are all vixens so easy to deceive nowadays? !

"Zi Xiao, you said you would live up to me."

He Zixiao was terrified in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face. He naturally had feelings for the beautiful and young Huang Jiulang, but he didn't have affection for the bald yellow fox who vomited blood. But he already understood at this moment that if Jiulang didn't He opened his mouth, and he was the one who died, so he immediately said: "Of course, Xiaosheng will never let you down in this life."

Huang Jiulang vomited another mouthful of blood, but his voice was much softer: "Then you swear to me."

The voice was deep and melodious, but it really aroused some affection in He Zixiao's memory. The scholar's oath came out of his mouth: "I, Master He, swear today that if I lose Jiulang in the future, I will be struck by lightning, and I will not be punished." Good to die."

The county magistrate Cheng was stunned to hear this conversation, and couldn't help saying: "Your oath is not strict enough, you have died long ago, but judging from the way of death, you have fulfilled the oath."

He Zixiao: Dare to be angry but not to speak out.jpg.

Huang Jiulang thought it was enough, he jumped up, stood in front of He Zixiao and said, "I agree to your conditions, but I still have one condition."

Is magistrate Cheng a person who likes to bargain with others?Absolutely not: "Forget it, anyway, you are a demon who violated the precept of killing, and the soul search will come faster."

Huang Jiulang immediately put up his guard: "Senior trusts you so much, you really want to search for the soul!"

"Oh? You're talking about Li Yong. He's not a monster in my yamen. He's just a casual eater at best. You'd better accept the cleverness in your heart, otherwise... Forget it, I don't want to waste time talking with you." Cheng Jin took two steps back, revealing the figure of Hei Lu Lu, "Master, if you don't do it, then do it."

Montenegro: ...

As soon as the coercion of the demon king came out, Huang Jiulang, who was still a little bit energetic just now, immediately turned into a pile of fox fur, and there was no bypass in front of him except confession.

"It would have been better if it hadn't been like this earlier, let's talk."

Huang Jiulang did conceal something about that night. He didn't find a body that He Zixiao could possess by chance, but planned it long ago.

"I am really in love with Zixiao, but there is no difference between a monster and a monster. Zixiao's life is at stake. I had no choice but to attack Xi Niang and Pan Xiaoan. But I didn't expect Jinhua Mao to be so vigilant. After that miss, Zixiao's body It's getting worse."

"So you shot Zhou Taishi?"

Huang Jiulang immediately denied: "Of course not. At that time, Zixiao was not dead, so I went out to find a way to break it, but I didn't expect that when I came back, Zixiao would be gone. It shouldn't be like this."

"Speak the key."

"That's the point. I didn't get along well with Zi Xiao during that time, so logically he wouldn't have left so fast!" Huang Jiulang suddenly became very excited, "I was very sad at the time, and suddenly remembered that Zi Xiao had once I went to see Imperial Physician Qi and took Zi Xiao to look for him."

"Emperor Qi?" Why did another imperial physician appear.

"That's right, Qi Yewang Qi's imperial physician, he said that Zi Xiao had a ghost pulse, and the disease was in Shaoyin. He once prescribed Zi Xiao a prescription to delay the onset of the disease. I thought it was because of his medicine that Zi Xiao disappeared. , so I went to him to argue." Huang Jiulang suddenly stopped his excitement when he said this, "He said that Zi Xiao's health is not good at all. The friendship between the two is solid, and it showed me a clear path."

The imperial physicians these days are so capable?

"Go on."

Huang Jiulang suddenly felt pain all over his body, and his seven orifices began to bleed. Cheng Jin couldn't understand it, but Hei Shan couldn't understand it better. This was the backlash of the oath.He immediately hit with two demonic powers, and forcibly suppressed the backlash: "Say!"

"Xiantian pill, he gave me a Xiantian pill, as long as you take it for a dying person, you can...you can..." Huang Jiulang suddenly widened his eyes, fear filled his eye sockets, and suddenly there was no sound .

"Jiulang? Jiulang! You killed Jiulang!!!" He Zixiao was terrified. Seeing Jiulang die in front of him, he couldn't stop trembling.

Cheng Jin was not frightened: "Dead?"

"Dead." Heishan quickly pulled out a trace of the demon soul from Huanghu's body, "It's such a powerful backlash, if it wasn't for this seat's quick action, this little half of the demon soul would have been wiped out."

Huang Jiulang's demon soul was very weak, even weaker than He Zixiao's. At this moment, he woke up with eyes full of pain, and found that he was still conscious, so he hurried to find He Zixiao.

Seeing that Jiulang has also turned into a ghost, He Zixiao felt inexplicably happy, but said happily on his face: "Jiulang, it's great that Jiulang is fine."

Jiulang also smiled: "That's right, then you don't have to wait for me at the bridge of Naihe."

Heishan didn't want to watch the ghost express his love, so he quickly took control of Huang Jiulang's ghost: "Speak, I can save you, and of course I can kill you."

"No, no, no, I said!" Huang Jiulang said quickly, "As long as the Xiantian pill is given to a dying person who has left his soul, he can keep his body immortal. I got the Xiantian pill at that time, so I looked for the dying person in Fucheng. people."

"So you found Zhou Taishi?"

"I didn't kill him. At most, I can only see him as dead. He offended people in the officialdom and recruited murder, which has nothing to do with me." Huang Jiulang even regretted it. If he knew it, he would choose another person. Now Nor will it fall to this point.

Cheng Jin narrowed his eyes slightly: "Since that's the case, you sent He Zixiao's ghost into Zhou Taishi's body that day, why didn't you guard him?"

Huang Jiulang said, "I originally planned to do so, but if Zi Xiao really becomes Zhou Taishi, he will have to accept the past of this identity. When I think about it, I will go after the murderer."

"Have you caught up?"

Huang Jiulang hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "We have caught up."

"You killed him?"

"Of course not. I'm not a fox demon cultivating heresy ways. How can I kill people indiscriminately? I just wrote down the identity of that person. When Zixiao wakes up, I'll go to the government office and report him."

Cheng Jin stared fixedly at the almost transparent demon soul, and finally asked, "Who is it?"

"Xiong Xiong, magistrate of Jinhua County."

Cheng Jin once met Xiong Xiong when he went to Fucheng to report on his work, but as far as he knew, Zhou Taishi and Xiong Xiong had no personal relationship, so why did it rise to the point of killing people?

**

Li Yong accepted Huang Jiulang's death quite well. After knowing his past and the cause of death, he cared about the imperial physician very much: "I can't live with my own crimes, but the imperial physician surnamed Qi, let me help you investigate."

"Thank you then."

Li Yong left soon, and Cheng Jin was just about to ask Nie Xiaoqian and Zhu Fengnian to send Zhou Taishi and two other ghosts who didn't want to be named to the underworld, when the red fox Xi Niang came.

"You want to see Huang Jiulang?"

Xi Niang nodded. After this battle, she has obviously grown a lot: "I'm sorry, if..."

"Okay, you can go to Pan Xiaoan and let him take you there, but the time can't be too long." After all, the sun is about to set, and the judge can let him send the ghost down earlier.

Xi Niang left quickly, leaving only Cheng Jin and Hei Shan in the hall.

"Master, don't you want to go to that imperial doctor Qi?"

But Heishan said: "I've already searched for it, people go to the empty building."

... so fast?

"What did you find?"

"No, the whole thatched hut burned down, I'm afraid I have already thought of a way out." Heishan said wearily.

This is definitely not a serious imperial physician, Cheng Jin hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Do you think that this imperial physician might have something to do with Qingheng?"

Montenegro didn't speak, obviously he didn't want to talk about this topic.

But this time, Cheng Jin didn't shut up considerately, but said, "I think it's unlikely."

Hei Shan suddenly opened his eyes: "Why?"

"At least there should be no direct connection. If it was really Qing Heng's handwriting, he would never give Huang Jiulang a chance to speak up, and even use him to set up another trick."

Looking back at Qingheng's plans in the past, they were all calculating people's hearts to the extreme, giving people hope and crushing them with his own hands. From the profile, he should enjoy this kind of thrill of life and death, but Huang Jiulang's behavior was rough and unreasonable. Speaking of rules, this is too unfair.

Cheng Jin said, "I'm more concerned about Xiantian Pill."

"I will go and investigate." Hei Shan's brows were rarely tired. Obviously, this was not physical fatigue, but the psychological blow Qing Heng gave him. He raised his head and glanced at Cheng Yi'an, who had bright eyes, and suddenly said, "Actually, based on your With the ability, it is absolutely possible to keep that Taishi behind."

"Why did you say this suddenly?" Cheng Jin was surprised, but he didn't deny it, "Indeed, I can do it."

"You can sell him to your senior brother."

Hei Lulu went out for a trip, he was really promising, he still noticed this, Cheng Jin clicked his tongue, but shook his head and said: "I won't do that."

Montenegro silently asked: Why?

"There's no reason for this. I'm also considered a non-staff member of the underworld. How can I bend the law for personal gain? Nie Xiaoqian wants to practice fate because of the body of a fierce ghost. Zhu Fengnian is because Shuimang ghosts are not allowed to reincarnate, but Zhou Taishi is different."

"Then if it was your senior brother who was killed, would you still be so calm?"

The relief on Cheng Jin's face disappeared immediately, he didn't like this question: "There is no such if."

Cheng Yi'an seldom showed such a look, and Hei Shan hesitated for a while, and only said: "Sorry."

I don't know when, the sky outside has already darkened, Wuzhou is in the south, there is very little snow, the stars and the moon are all covered by clouds tonight, and by dinner time, there is already a dense cold rain.

Cheng Jin doesn't like rainy days very much, especially in the cold winter nights. Fortunately, tonight, A Cong made the cured meat claypot rice that he has been coveting for a long time. Jinhua's pork is of excellent quality, and it tastes delicious when made into bacon and sausages. .

Paired with A Cong's exclusive and secret claypot sauce, County Magistrate Cheng cooked two small pots in one go.Ah Cong is worthy of being a mediocre little culinary genius. Although he doesn't often make claypot rice, he can control the heat very well. The golden and crispy rice crust on the bottom of the pot is a perfect match with the salty pork ribs. .
