Chapter 50 Doubt
"I am ashamed of being in charge." The Taoist said, the Holy Prison Gate had a good relationship with this official during his lifetime. This official was an old official in the previous dynasty. Later, because he had some merits with the people, he was also an official. Later, he was recruited by the City God and became a judge.
"I don't know what happened to my friend?" the judge asked, a light flashing in his eyes.
"My Yin Shen went here because my disciple Li Wenjing was suddenly killed. I didn't dare to do anything here. I just wanted to ask who the killer was?" The Taoist said without hiding it.
The judge nodded: "So that's how it is!"
He was determined to say, "You go check it out, if you have it, send it here immediately."
"Yes!" Someone responded.
After a moment, a ghost messenger came, and someone dragged the chains and the sound gradually sounded from far to near. A shadow appeared in the gray fog and she cried: "I died so miserably."
The Taoist looked like it was indeed Li Wenjing. The ghost body was wearing a chain, with a little white light to protect her body, and a lot of dark aura was wrapped around her body. Li Wenjing was escorted by the ghost messenger. When he saw the Taoist, he came up and cried and said, "Senior brother, I was killed by the thief. I will die and ask my senior brother to take revenge."
When Li Wenjing was alive, he practiced Taoism. When he fell into the underworld, he still had a trace of spiritual light to protect his spiritual body.
The man was angry and shouted coldly: "Why are you crying? If you didn't practice the Dharma diligently and didn't open the Heavenly Gate, how could you be killed so easily?"
After pondering for a while, he asked, "Junior Brother Li, do you know who killed you?"
Li Wenjing knelt on the ground and recalled for a while, saying, "Senior brother, I don't know who killed me. When I was alive, due to the night attack, I didn't have time to resist. I only saw a corner of my clothes."
"I'm dead. With the remaining Taoist Techniques, I looked at it with all my might. I saw only a clear light protecting the man. I couldn't see clearly what I saw with my spiritual eyes."
"Senior brother, save me, I died so miserably, and I also have many hardships in this underworld."
"If you don't become a ghost immortal, how can I save you?" The Taoist was furious when he heard Li Wenjing's words. As expected, a Taoist attacked the Holy Prison Gate and sighed again:
"You plan for the master, and the master will not treat you badly. It's just that the power of the City God is so powerful that we can do very little. Who told you not to become a ghost immortal?"
"But it will always prevent you from going to hell to serve your sentence. The Master will find some opportunities for you. What level you can reach in the future depends on your luck."
If Li Wenjing commits evil and does not redeem it, he will go to hell and suffer difficulties.
Only then did Li Wenjing realize that he had been hooked here. Since he was different from living, he cried: "Thank you for your great kindness to get me out of the sea of suffering, and I hope your master will avenge me."
"Hmph, you are too useless. Ju didn't even look like the one who killed you. How to avenge you? Go back, I will investigate it in the future."
Li Wenjing thanked repeatedly. The man stopped talking and bowed to the judge: "Thank you."
"Go down!" The judge waved his hand.
Seeing that he was taken down, although the judge had a good relationship with the sect, he did not help for nothing. He had an exchange of interests and took out a bottle of nectar from his arms. There were many patterns on the bottle, and the patterns on it were like earthworms, with some white light.
The Taoist handed the bottle of nectar on it and said with a smile: "Sir, this bottle is nectar produced from my Holy Prison Gate, which nourishes the divine body."
The judge was not pretentious and took it with a smile, saying, "The fruit is the nectar produced by the blessed land. It is not only beneficial to the divine body, but also a rare wine. Li Wenjing needs to live a while, and I will take care of it at that time."
Hearing the judge's words, the man smiled: "Thank you!"
Then he left, and a little bit of spiritual light returned to his body along Xun Shenxiang. Then he opened his eyes and said, "Prepare pen, ink, paper and inkstone for me. I will report to the young master that something big happened, and a Taoist intervened in the affairs of my Holy Prison Gate."
City
At noon, many scholars came out of the inn room, all of whom were red and their faces were a little bad. They were the sequelae of yesterday's drunkenness. At this time, Yu Guangmao and others got up and arrived downstairs. Only then did they find that Pei Ziyun's room was closed.
He went to knock on the door, "Bang bang, bang bang", Pei Ziyun didn't sleep all night, and was sleeping soundly. When the knock on the door sounded, he woke up in shock. His head hurt. He listened to Yu Guangmao's voice shouting outside: "Brother Pei, I woke up, got up, I slept for too long, but I was going to hurt my body."
It is most likely to hurt your body after a hangover. A common way for scholars to do is to drink some sober soup before going to bed, wake up, drink more hot porridge to warm your stomach.
Pei Ziyun woke up and felt that she had just slept for a while. She drank so much wine yesterday and was very tired. She looked at the person in front of her and walked to the door of the inn. When she opened the door, she saw that it was Yu Guangmao and others. These scholars saw Pei Ziyun's appearance, and because of the night, they were pale and red in their eyes, and they all laughed and said, "Brother Pei, you have also drunk a lot!"
But they didn't doubt it, and it was the same if others drank too much.
Several people drank a bowl of porridge in this inn to warm their stomachs and eat some side dishes before returning to Fu's mansion.
Yesterday, a waiter came to inform the inn that he knew the situation and when he saw these scholars come back, he ordered the kitchen to prepare hot water, so that these scholars must take a shower and change their clothes.
Entering the door and turning into the corridor of the yard, a little loli was holding a rabbit and surrounding the radish in the yard. Seeing the few people coming back, she snorted coldly: "These scholars are so ignorant, they don't know where they are. It's really a disgrace to come back drunk."
These scholars blushed when they heard the Loli's words. The little girl was wearing a red skirt, a green top, and two buns rolled up. She was very cute. She was angry at this time and her cheeks were bulging, making people want to pinch it.
However, when the little loli saw a few scholars, he smelled alcohol, pinched his nose and held the little rabbit, and turned around and ran away.
Yun Niang was calm and wisdom in the room, just sitting cross-legged, lit an incense in the room and placed it on the table, and the room was filled with faint fragrance.
At this time, Yu Ruyi was placed on the dressing table and vibrated. Yun Niang was shocked and opened her eyes and looked at Yu Ruyi. Yu Ruyi would not react automatically. There must be something wrong. Use her fingers to point it.
With a "buzzing", the jade Ruyi shot onto the dressing mirror with white light. The waves on the dressing mirror sparkled and several figures appeared.
"Hmph, the scholars are going to have a drink." Yun Niang and Luo Li had a look and looked at the people on the water mirror carefully.
“Huh?”
"This Yu Guangmao has a white and red aura falling down, and he seems to be a juren."
"Thinking about it, I've been five days after the exam. Although it has not been announced, the ranking of the tribute school is almost out. There will be a reaction there."
"It's just that this person is born rich and not one of us."
Yun Niang looked at it, turned to Pei Ziyun again, and was slightly surprised: "This guy looks a little more murderous intent and a little more evil. However, on the top, there is also a white and red aura hanging down, which seems to be a little more than Yu Guangmao."
Yun Niang was shocked and said to herself: "Pei Ziyun is good at literary talent. It seems that the juren will win, and the ranking is still high, so she will be reduced. As long as it is announced, she will officially win the fate of the juren. It seems that she must hurry up and introduce Pei Ziyun into the door."
Zhoucheng·Gao Chuiguan
Zhang Jieyu was a little depressed. He felt that he was doing well in this state examination, but he had already entered the Taoist sect and was taboo by the dragon spirit. He said that even if the court had a Taoist official, the Central Daolu Department, the Honglu Temple, and the county had a Taoist chief officer, the Daolu Department chief officer was only the sixth rank, and the Daolu Department chief officer was only the ninth rank, which shows the strict restrictions.
"I won't win this time, and I won't take the exam." Zhang Jieyu also understood that if he wanted to practice the law and manage the outer school, the imperial examination also required a lifetime of intensive study. How could he have time to learn these studies? If he failed this time, he would be a scholar for life.
As soon as he pondered in the courtyard, a man came to report: "A Taoist came from the county town, saying that something is a big deal."
Zhang Jieyu was shocked and felt something was wrong, and waved: "Send it quickly!"
The Taoist man came in, his cheeks twitched: "Young Master, Uncle Li was killed in the house. Master went to the underworld to investigate, which means that it was very likely that the Taoist did it."
"What? Li Wenjing was killed?" Zhang Jieyu's face changed, and he looked at him with a slightly confused and puzzled look. After a moment, he woke up and lost his voice: "Who did it?"
Li Wenjing is not very talented in Taoism, but this person is in charge of affairs in this county or even in this province, which has a great effect on himself and the sect. He is a military advisor and does not want to be killed today.
The Taoist handed the envelope up, which was written by the owner of the Golden Rooster Temple. He took it and read it all the way. Zhang Jieyu's face turned cold: "It's really damn."
After saying that, he would come.
"Young Master!" After a while, a Taoist and a warrior came to the order. Zhang Jieyu wandered for a few steps before saying, "Military advisor Li Wenjing was killed. It is very likely that it was the Taoist. I will check for the Taoist who had a conflict with my Holy Prison Gate recently. The Taoist who came to this province recently also checked for me. No matter who killed my military advisor, I must give retribution."
"Yes!" The two of them responded and were about to step out. A flash of inspiration flashed through Zhang Jieyu's mind and said, "Check me about the scholar Pei Ziyun, a scholar in Jiangping County. I suspect that this person is a chess piece in the Immortal Sect, and it is related to the murder of the military advisor."
"Yes!" The two of them responded again, and saw that Zhang Jieyu had nothing to say anymore, so they stepped out.
Fu Mansion
On the dressing mirror, a white talisman, with a hint of inspiration, was talking: "There are some movements in the prefectures and counties. I checked and found that a major outer disciple of the Holy Prison Gate was killed, named Li Wenjing. At this time, the Holy Prison Gate was investigating and inquiring about the real murderer."
Yun Niang was shocked when she heard this: "What, Li Wenjing next to Zhang Jieyu died? Although this man is not a disciple of the inner sect of the Holy Prison Sect, he has wisdom, clear and decisive actions, and has knowledge. He manages the foundation for the Holy Prison Sect. He doesn't want to die like this."
Yun Niang was shocked and suddenly felt something. She pointed the dressing mirror at Pei Ziyun, and the shape immediately appeared on the mirror.
In the room, Pei Ziyun was sleeping soundly, and there was nothing unusual.
Just thinking about it carefully, there must be cause and effect on your own whim. Should you lead Pei Ziyun into it?
For a moment, she hesitated and confused.
