Shen Lang sighed in his heart. Although he had not been a father yet and could not sympathize with the mentality of a parent, but after thinking about it for a moment, it was indeed too difficult to ask a father to kill his only daughter.
In ancient China, there was a system of "relatives hiding from each other".
Husbands and wives, parents, and children can conceal crimes from each other, and the law will not punish them with "covering up crimes."
But Du Baisheng was not just concealing and covering up.
After he found out that his daughter had committed the serious crime of "blood sacrifice to the devil", he not only failed to urge her to change, but instead helped her kill people and silence her. This was a capital crime of aiding the evildoer and acting as a tool of evil.
Looking at Du Baisheng's body with a sigh, Shen Lang looked at Bai Shishi again:
"Donor Bai, Yunwei, the daughter of the president of the Luling Chamber of Commerce, is also one of your seven sisters, right? Where does she rank? Well, even if the daughter of a businessman is talented, it may be difficult to be sought after by literati, so she should not be
The 'talented girl' in the fourth child is not the boss of a martial arts sect... Is she your second sister, third sister or sixth sister?"
Bai Shishi's expression was numb and she didn't say a word.
Shen Lang nodded:
"It doesn't matter if you don't say it. Anyway, that Yunwei benefactor must be one of you. It's not suitable to stay here for a long time. Let's camp somewhere else."
Bai Shishi didn't say anything, nodded silently, and was about to leave with Shen Lang.
But before he had even taken two steps, he heard several dog barks.
Then I heard someone shouting again:
"Over there! Quick, follow the dog!"
Then there were bursts of chaotic footsteps and shouts, quickly approaching the two of them.
Shen Lang frowned, stopped, squinted, and soon saw two middle-aged men dressed as hunters, holding bows and knives on their backs, each leading a thin dog, rushing towards here.
Behind the two hunters, there were four catchers, as well as more than twenty government officials and Bai Chai armed with knives, clubs, and shotguns, who surrounded them aggressively.
"I see someone! Come on, it's that monster monk!"
"Catch him, don't let him escape!"
Amidst the shouting, the four detectives quickly led the team into the clearing in the forest, aiming their swords and guns at Shen Lang.
When a police officer saw Du Baisheng's body, he went over to check it out and said in shock:
"Uncle Du is dead!"
"What? The demon monk even killed Uncle Du?"
"Monk!"
A middle-aged policeman with a dignified appearance and a mustache glared at Shen Lang angrily and shouted:
"You raped and killed Du Qianqian, kidnapped civilian girl Bai Shishi, and now you killed Du Baisheng. It's so lawless! Put down your weapons immediately and be captured. If you dare to resist, you will be shot without mercy!"
What?
How can you desecrate someone's innocence!
Shen Lang looked at the seven or eight long and short muskets aimed at him, then at the four agents, and frowned:
"Who said I raped and killed Du Qianqian?"
The middle-aged policeman with a mustache sneered:
"Of course someone reported the crime! Why, you monster monk still wants to ask the person who reported the crime, can you retaliate?"
Another policeman said:
"Du Baisheng's body is here, the murder weapon is on your back, and the civilian girl Bai Shishi who was kidnapped by you is also here. The facts are all there and the evidence is sufficient. How can you still deny it?"
Shen Lang shook his head and sighed:
"But your arrival is too coincidental. You worked tirelessly in the middle of the night, going more than thirty miles out of the city to arrest people. You didn't come early or late, but you arrived just after Du Baisheng died..."
The middle-aged policeman with a mustache was full of righteousness and shouted:
"This is called the law's net being wide open and not leaking out! You demon monk has done so many injustices. It's time for your evil deeds to be punished!"
"And I, the public police officer, earn my salary from the imperial court, and it is my responsibility to ensure the safety of our country. Not to mention that if we go out in the middle of the night, there will be a violent storm and the earth will shake. If innocent people are killed, we will be as anxious as the wind and fire to arrest the stubborn ones.
!
"Stop talking nonsense, the demon monk quickly put down his weapons and capture him without mercy, otherwise he will be shot to death randomly!"
Seeing the upright and awe-inspiring look of the catcher, Shen Lang couldn't help but laugh.
No wonder "Hydralisk" said that the Luling government was not trustworthy. Looking at the behavior of these people in the public sect, it was clear that the Luling government had been infiltrated into a sieve by the Seven Sisters.
But it's not surprising when you think about it.
No matter which world, no matter which dynasty or generation, how can there be no protective umbrella behind the evil forces?
And the apparent identities of the seven spider sisters are not very simple either.
For example, Yun Wei, whose ranking is unknown, has a father who is the president of the Luling Chamber of Commerce.
As the president of the Fucheng Chamber of Commerce, Yunwei's father's connections and financial resources are obviously very important. It is not easy to bribe and collude with several public figures.
Shen Lang shook his head and looked at Bai Shishi:
"Which sister of yours is this handiwork? That Yun Wei, or another sister?"
Bai Shishi looked numb and didn't say a word.
A policeman stepped forward, pointed a short musket at Shen Lang and shouted:
"What does the demon monk want to do? To threaten the victim you kidnapped?"
The upright and upright policeman with a mustache stared angrily, raised his hand and patted the short musket stuck in his belt:
"You dare to threaten the victim even though you are surrounded, which shows how arrogant this monster monk is! Monster monk, are you trying to resist arrest? Humph! Even if you have great martial arts skills, no wonder you are stronger than a musket?"
Another detective said coldly:
"Even if you are lucky enough to escape today, you will definitely be handed over to the Ministry of Punishment to be arrested and wanted by the whole world."
Shen Lang nodded thoughtfully:
"Understood. If the young monk resists arrest, or even kills several policemen and government officials, even if he is not killed on the spot and manages to escape, he will be wanted by the sea. But if the young monk is arrested without hesitation...I am afraid that he will not wait for the trial.
Killed violently in prison.
"If the young monk is just an ordinary monk, facing this situation, there is almost no possibility of turning around. After all, you are all genuine public servants, and among the Luling government, there may be bigger backers behind you.
…”
One of the detectives laughed jokingly:
"Young monk is quite smart. But it's of no use. If you provoke someone you can't afford to offend, you will definitely die. If you just obey and capture you, you will suffer less. If you resist stubbornly, after catching you, everyone in the public family will be in trouble."
No matter what the means, I have to make sure you eat as much as you want!"
"What nonsense are you telling the truth?"
The mustached policeman glared at the joking policeman, then looked at Shen Lang, expressionless, and said in a deep voice:
"Monk, don't talk nonsense. We enforce the law impartially, how can we have so many insidious thoughts? I only want to ask you, surrender or not?"
Shen Lang sighed softly:
"You guys... are relying on the government and Wang Fa, relying on this tiger skin to dominate and act arrogantly. Do you really think that no one dares to resist you? The Dragon King of the Seven Seas has been at sea for many years, and no one really remembers... He once
Have you done anything?"
Hearing his words, the mustachioed detective shrank slightly and shouted:
"open……"
Before he could finish the word "shoot", Shen Lang had already cracked the ground with his foot, and he was in front of him like lightning, and hit him hard in the chest with a "heart elbow".
The mustachioed policeman was the chief policeman of Fucheng, and his martial arts skills were certainly not comparable to those of policemen in small counties like Changsheng County. He also had a sixth-grade cultivation level, and his reactions were quite sharp. He gathered his skills in time, crossed his arms in front of his chest, and tried to
Blocked Shen Lang's elbow.
However, the strength of Shen Lang's elbow and the hardness of the elbow tip bone were beyond his expectation.
Katcha!
Amidst the crisp sound, Shen Lang put his elbow on the arms raised by Mustache, breaking the arms of the mustache policeman like a piece of rotten wood.
The tip of his elbow was like a big gun, and he suddenly swung open the arms of Captain Mustache and drove straight in. With a bang, he hit Captain Mustache right in the heart.
With the crisp sound of his sternum exploding, the mustached policeman seemed to have been hit by a mad bull. Blood spurted from his mouth, his eyes bulged, his feet lifted off the ground, and he was thrown backwards.
Shen Lang, on the other hand, took out the musket from Mustache's belt, and when he swung the muzzle to the side to catch the policeman, he already opened the hammer with his thumb and pulled the trigger.
Peng!
With the crisp sound of the gunshot, the detective's forehead burst open and his blood was sprayed out.
The other police officers and government officials finally realized what they were doing, and they all exclaimed and turned their guns to point at Shen Lang.
But Shen Lang's body movements were faster than theirs, and he had already crashed into the crowd, punching and kicking him like a tiger entering a herd of sheep.
He attacked the police officers brutally and beat the remaining two police officers to death.
For ordinary government servants and white officers, he spared some effort and only broke their arms and knocked them unconscious.
Soon, the ground was littered with government officials and white officers. As for the two hunters leading thin dogs, they were so frightened that they fled away with their dogs.
Shen Lang shook his head and looked at the mustachioed policeman whose chest was collapsed by his elbow and whose eyes were bulging with death, "You dare to arrest this young monk with just this little effort. I really don't know who gave you the courage."
"Of course it's the king's method of Da Chu, and the courage given to them by the government. People in the world, even if they have great martial arts skills, will not dare to resist the government's arrests. Otherwise, they will end up being wanted and on the run."
Bai Shishi looked at Shen Lang with a subtle expression:
"No matter what, you killed the official police officers of the government, and you killed four of them in one go. You don't have any evidence to prove that they have done anything evil. Even if you have evidence, the government believes that you are an outsider.
Or do you trust your own detective?
"In short, you have now committed the serious crime of killing a public agent. After dawn, your arrest documents will be posted in Luling City. In addition to the government agents, bounty killers in the black market will also take action.
Luling is close to the capital, so soon your case will be delivered to the capital.
"If you are not caught by the Luling officials and are lucky enough to escape the pursuit of the bounty killers, the capital will also issue arrest documents and reward you all over the world.
"First provoke Du Baisheng to kill you. No matter whether he succeeds or not, there will be backup plans waiting for you. This intricate design is exactly the work of my fourth sister."
Shen Lang chuckled:
"Is that a famous beauty and talented woman in Luling Prefecture? Sure enough, she has some scheming.
"If you are just an ordinary monk, there is really no chance of you turning around in this situation. Your sisters don't need to take action themselves, they can use the power of the government to force the monk to flee. If you are not careful,
, you will lose your life."
Bai Shishi folded her hands around her chest and said calmly:
"Unless you have the ability to kill Arhat and the Dragon King of the Seven Seas, this is indeed a dead end for you. But looking at your unhurried look, do you still have a way to come back?"
Shen Lang said leisurely:
"Every conspiracy has a premise, that is, you must know yourself and the enemy before you can proceed with the conspiracy. If there is a slight oversight, something may go wrong.
"Your fourth sister's plan was aimed at a monk who accidentally got involved in this matter. A single powerful martial monk is indeed more than enough, but if she wants to deal with me...she has made a big mistake of knowing her best but not knowing her enemy.
Already."
Bai Shishi's expression changed:
"Listen to what you mean...it's impossible for my fourth sister to use the power of the government to force you to death? Do you have any big backers behind you?"
Shen Lang chuckled:
"Confidentiality."
Bai Shishi curled her lips:
"Forget it if you don't say so. But even if you have some big backers, in this Luling Prefecture, water from far away can't save you from thirsty near."
But at least, I don't have to worry about being wanted nationwide.
The ordinary monk Fa Hai cannot pass this level. The Seven Sisters will definitely collude with the Luling government and be accused of murdering a murderer and also killing many government servants. They will be reported to the capital and issued arrest documents, and he will be wanted throughout the country.
But Brother Lang, I am an outstanding undercover agent of the Divine Catcher Hall. I will be a future first-class Divine Catcher and a ruthless detective. I am a peerless genius who was recommended to the world's greatest grandmaster, Yan Tianying, by a letter written by Mu Qingxue, a third-grade Divine Catcher.
As far as my strong backing is concerned, as long as I don't publicly kill several government officials in a row like the "Dragon King of the Seven Seas", or kill a prince, prince or other important figures in public, I will never be publicly wanted and arrested at sea.
Didn’t you see that I offended the emperor, killed his lover and illegitimate child, indirectly killed his green glove, and destroyed a channel for him to make money, so the emperor can only pay for me and put a reward on the black market?
Of course, there is no need to tell Bai Shishi these words.
After all, Brother Lang's current identity is Fahai, the martial monk of Jinshan Temple, a compassionate and kind-hearted monk.
"Let's go, we can't stay here any longer, find another place to rest."
Shen Lang picked up the little rabbit, walked again, and took Bai Shishi out of the woods to find another place to sleep.
Bai Shishi followed him, suddenly remembered something, and asked in a strange tone:
"I remember you said that you don't kill."
Shen Lang said in surprise: "Has the young monk ever said this?"
Bai Shishi nodded firmly: "Yes!"
Shen Lang shook his head: "That must be Donor Bai, you must have remembered it wrong. The young monk is a warrior monk, how can there be any reason why a warrior monk should not kill?"
Bai Shishi's head was covered with black lines and her face was speechless.
She put her hand on her chest and blamed herself:
My fault. I shouldn't have questioned him about this. Because he has the same virtue as the killing arhat. They are both evil monks who tell lies with their eyes open and are mentally abnormal. They turn their backs on what they said and deny it. That's not the case.
Is it operating normally? Is there anything to question...
While Bai Shishi was reflecting on herself and blaming herself, Shen Lang was still saying seriously:
"Actually, as a warrior monk, the young monk is very particular about killing animals.
"As the saying goes, 'killing is to protect life, killing karma is not killing people'. The monk only kills white donors. Du donors, you evil demons and witches, or those policemen just now and other law-enforcement criminals, collude with black and white, and work as a helper for the tiger, all over the body
People with karma.
"So even if the young monk kills people like crazy, he is not violating the prohibition on killing. Instead, he is doing good deeds and accumulating merit..."
Bai Shishi looked like she couldn't stand it, and rolled her eyes angrily. Just as she was about to refute him, she heard an ethereal and soft female voice chuckle, then she stopped her smile and said in a not very majestic tone:
"The young monk is full of fallacies. Whose disciple are you? Who taught you these fallacies?"
