Compared to the anxiety of the Tianjing Gang, Teng Jingcai was in a better mood at the moment. When he returned to the backyard, he called his concubines to have fun, and his appetite and lust also increased.

In the middle of the night, Teng Jingcai suddenly felt chest tightness and gradually began to have nightmares. Then he woke up from his dream and found that his concubine's hand was pressing on his chest.

"Hoo..."

Teng Jingcai gently moved his concubine's arm away, turned her body sideways and continued to sleep.

It was only when he fell asleep that Teng Jing suddenly remembered something. He remembered that the warlock named Zhou seemed to have said before that his spells also had limitations. Some warriors' Qi and blood became powerful, but when they met someone with the most powerful martial arts, it would be effective.

There aren't many, and it's even less likely to be effective when it comes to someone who is extremely martial.

Innate martial arts, an innate master?

The words of the Whale Gang Master that day before came to mind again...

Teng Jingcai straightened up all of a sudden. That man was lying! There was no way that Zhou's magic could defeat an innate warrior!

Thinking back to the way the person named Yu was seriously injured and unable to stand on his own, Teng Jingcai became more and more frightened as he thought about it. Wasn't it possible that it wouldn't be possible? The person named Zhou was also arrested, right?

Teng Jingcai couldn't sleep now. He waited anxiously until dawn and couldn't wait to put on his clothes and get ready to go to the headquarters of the Sky Whale Gang. However, he didn't see the person in charge of the Sky Whale Gang. He was only invited in to drink some tea.

, waited until a gang leader came and chatted for a few words, saying that the gang leader was out.

Teng Jingcai was reluctant and waited until the afternoon before leaving, and told the people of the Sky Whale Gang to ask their gang leader to find him when he returned.

But the next day, Teng Jingcai waited at home for a whole day without waiting for anyone to come. He once again had trouble sleeping and eating. He went to the head of the Tianjing Gang early on the third day. This time, he only saw a few minions and no one else.

He was still polite and did not dare to neglect.

When he returned to his study at home, Teng Jingcai felt depressed.

It was also at this moment that a servant came over cautiously holding a letter.

"Master, there is a letter from Yuezhou..."

"What, give it to me quickly!"

Teng Jingcai grabbed the letter and couldn't wait to tear it open. After browsing around, his expression became worse and worse.

With a "bang" sound, Teng Jingcai slapped the desk hard, but the pain in his right hand immediately made him grin.

"You are such a vicious magistrate of Yuanjiang County..."

Teng Jingcai felt shuddering just thinking about it.

"No, we can't sit still and wait for death!"

The next moment, Teng Jingcai quietly began to search around the house for some valuables.

------------------

While the Tianjing Gang and Teng Jingcai were struggling in Wuzhou, another urgent memorial from Yuanjiang County had already arrived at Chengtian Mansion.

This time the memorial focused on detailing the harm caused by witchcraft and sorcery. Unlike the last time, it immediately attracted the attention of the Ministry of Punishments.

However, someone once again quietly sent the news. When Sheng Shuying, the Minister of Civil Affairs, found out about it in the middle of the night, she collapsed on the study couch at home.

"It's over...what else did this bastard do? He's trying to kill me!"

I didn't expect that Teng Jingcai would dare to touch witchcraft and harm people. This was a taboo in today's world. Ten heads are not enough to lose him!

"Hiss... we can't sit still and wait for death!"

Sheng Shuying shook violently, crumpled the note in her hand, and then immediately rummaged through the study and found the secret letter Teng Jingcai had sent earlier. Her whole body was trembling slightly. She took several deep breaths before she managed to calm down, and immediately

Start studying ink and writing books.

The next day was the court meeting. Sheng Shuying, who had not slept all night, put on court clothes early and entered the palace. In the waiting room, he always felt that some officials were glancing at him, but it seemed that it was just his imagination.

Finally, when it was time for the court meeting, a group of civil and military officials lined up to enter the Zichen Palace. The emperor had not yet arrived, and Sheng Shuying was already extremely nervous.

"Sheng Shanda, are you hot?"

A colleague nearby made a sound of confusion. Sheng Shuying reached out and touched her forehead. It was covered with fine sweat, so she could only say awkwardly.

"Yes, it's a bit hot..."

"The Emperor has arrived——"

Sheng Shuying cheered up and looked up, and the ministers shouted together: "Welcome to the Holy One——"

Under the guidance of the great eunuch, a tall middle-aged man wearing a dragon robe and a black gauze winged crown sat on the dragon chair and said calmly.

"All my dear friends, no courtesy!"

The eunuch said something loudly as usual after standing still.

"There is a notebook to play——"

When Sheng Shuying looked at the ministers, the officials from the Ministry of Punishments, Chengtian Prefecture Yin, and several other officials, everyone seemed to be about to walk out, so he quickly came out with the memorial.

"Your Majesty, I have written a memorial to you, Sheng Shuying. I want to accuse my old department of corruption, perverting the law, seeking wealth and killing people. They are even more shameless and even used secret letters to try to protect me. It is an unpardonable crime. I also want to tell myself that I don't know the person.

I didn’t discover that my former subordinate had committed such a crime, please ask the emperor to punish him——”

The person on the dragon chair frowned slightly and looked intently at the minister below. Although there was a little distance, it was obvious that Sheng Shuying was very nervous.

Normally, this kind of matter is submitted directly to the Ministry of Justice. Even if it really needs to be sent to the imperial court, you can go to the imperial study room in the afternoon, but Sheng Shuying is in a hurry and chooses to report it directly at the court meeting?

The emperor's expression became a little intriguing.

"Send it up."

As soon as the emperor spoke, the eunuch took the memorial and delivered it to the emperor. After the emperor browsed it, he looked in the direction of the Ministry of Justice.

"Si Jingxiu, did you receive a memorial from Yuezhou? Do you know that the case involving Teng Jingcai is involved?"

The Minister of Punishment walked out from among the ministers.

"Back to Your Majesty, the Ministry of Punishment has indeed received the relevant memorial, but it has received two letters. Because it involves imperial officials, the first one is already under review and is ready to discuss with the Supervision Department. Yesterday, another letter was received...

..”

With that said, the Minister of Punishment glanced at Sheng Shuying, and then took out a memorial from his arms.

"I have roughly explained the content. Please take a look at it, Your Majesty."

"Send it up."

The emperor still said it politely, but after the eunuch delivered the memorial and unfolded it, he began to sit upright and his expression gradually began to change. Then he glanced at Sheng Shuying and snorted in his heart.

"Sheng Aiqing is indeed the pillar of the country, but she just trusted the wrong villain. Maybe Teng Jingcai was still at peace when you were in Wuzhou."

After saying this, the emperor looked at the Minister of Punishment and said calmly.

"A small Wuzhou magistrate, together with businessmen, harmed so many women among the people, just for the benefit of prostitution? Afterwards, he even hired a demon to use witchcraft to harm people for this matter. I'm afraid the Yuanjiang County Magistrate still has something to worry about.

Dare to play it..."

Saying this, the emperor looked at the ministers.

"If you dare to use witchcraft to harm people, and even those Jianghu people dare to get involved in this matter, the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and Yushitai will investigate this case carefully for me. Sheng Aiqing will stay in office for now. If it is not related, of course it will be fine.

I won’t accuse you wrongly.”

"I obey the order!"

Several officials responded immediately, and Sheng Shuying on the other side broke into a cold sweat when she responded.

The emperor looked down expressionlessly, but in addition to the witchcraft incident that disturbed his mood, he also glanced at the memorial to the side again, Midnight Trial of Ghosts?

------------------

Troubles gradually arose in the imperial court, but for the Yuanjiang County government, life calmed down, and there were no further disturbances for a month after the night attack.

Yi Shuyuan did not travel around during this period. In addition to completing the contents of the county annals, he also savored the gains during this period.

In the past month, Yi Shuyuan has been living a life between the dining hall and the library. He has never even been to his dormitory. It is almost a kind of alternative state of seclusion. It was not until today that God finally accepted it.

For today's Yi Shuyuan, every gain in practice is worthy of joy, not to mention that self-enlightenment will give him a greater sense of accomplishment. Unfortunately, there is still a long way to go from virtuality to reality.

distance.

Sitting in front of the book desk, Yi Shuyuan's mental Qingsong, who had retained the previous harvest, once again flipped through the book given by Huang Hongchuan, and played with the piece of ebony with his other hand, nourishing it with his own spiritual energy.

Although Yi Shuyuan didn't know how to refine weapons, he felt that nourishing them with his own spiritual energy would definitely not go wrong.

Yi Shuyuan could already recite the entire book in front of him, but he still subconsciously turned over it several times.

At this moment, Yi Shuyuan was reading a book and recalling all the previous practice gains, and his mind couldn't help but be filled with thoughts.

If I can really manifest this way, then in the future one thought of reality and reality can be transformed into thousands of things in my mind, and illusions born from my mind can be transformed into reality. It should be called a transformation of the earth!

Yi Shuyuan, who had already had half of the experience, couldn't help but smile. There were too many things for him to learn and adapt to. If he hadn't really practiced martial arts seriously and had reached the innate level of internal strength,

So it is still unknown whether this half time can be successful.

However, Yi Shuyuan is not impatient, but rather feels a little contented. Traveling around the world, seeing thousands of people, seeing thousands of things, and being able to follow his own path, why not do it.

"Hey, this is fun! If I, Yi Shuyuan, can do it half a time, I can do it once, if I can do it once, I can do it ten thousand times... Tsk, it seems a little too ambitious..."

Talking to himself, Yi Shuyuan suddenly looked towards the door.

After a while, a child arrived nearby. He walked around in the yard, then stood on tiptoe and carefully looked inside the library, only to find that the people inside were also looking outside.
