Shi Cheng originally decided to stay and tidy up the Qiancheng Yinsi, but he was a little shaken when he heard Yu Yancai's description.
Xu Zhiqiong once asked his master, where will the merits of the judge go after he dies?
The answer given by the master is that no matter which Taoism, after the practitioner dies, the cultivation level will be taken back by the Taoism, which is the so-called Taoism disappears after the death of the body.
But Qian Cheng Yinsi seems to be an exception.
Because the Qiancheng Judges disappeared and the Judge Road disappeared, the merits of the Yinsi were cut off.
Therefore, the Qiancheng Yinsi formed a strange closed-loop system. After the death of the underworld cultivator, his merits will remain in his body and become the promotion material for his colleagues, or the food for promotion.
This should also be due to the disappearance of the Judge's Way, resulting in the inability to recover the merits.
It seems that among the Qiancheng Yinsi, whoever has mastered enough corpses of fellow practitioners will have the highest level of cultivation.
But when I think about it, this is illogical.
As the Qiancheng Yanjun, Zhou Gongxian has the most resources, but why does he only have an eighth-grade cultivation level?
"In your underworld, whoever grabs the body can eat it?"
"That's not necessarily the case," Yu Yancai explained seriously. "It depends on the opportunity to grab the corpse. Whether you can eat it depends on your talent.
There was once a prison warden who picked up the corpse of a governor. He was not very talented, but he still ate the corpse. As a result, he ate almost half of the corpse for three days, causing damage to his meridians, and he immediately lost his mind and went crazy.
Later, I discovered this man, and when I saw it, I couldn’t waste it. I ate the man and him, too, while it was still fresh..."
I see.
Zhou Gongxian was not very talented and did not dare to eat more corpses. Since he had an inkstone, he was not in a hurry to be promoted.
Yu Yancai talked about the process of eating the corpse with gusto. Shi Cheng stepped forward and kicked him to the ground. He turned to Xu Zhiqiong and said, "I've already taught you the rules on the Naihe Bridge. It's late, so I won't
time to go."
Xu Zhiqiong shook his head and said: "That won't work. There are still many things to teach. Magistrate Chen, come over here."
He stepped forward and grabbed Chen Zhixian, who wailed like a slaughtered pig.
"Brother Shi, let's see how to deal with this person?"
Shi Cheng squatted in front of Magistrate Chen and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, I am a good person, not as vicious as him. Old man, have you ever done anything bad?"
Chen Zhixian shook his head repeatedly and said: "I have never done anything bad, and everything I say is true."
"Don't be anxious, I believe in you." Shi Cheng always had a smile on his face, which made it easy for people to put down their guard.
"Old man, have you ever killed anyone?"
"Well, there are always people who deserve to be killed in this world." Chen Zhixian, an old and cunning man, fell into the mantra and told the truth, but it was an irrelevant truth.
"Is there anyone in this world who shouldn't be killed?" Shi Cheng asked unhurriedly.
"Of course there is."
"Have you ever killed someone you shouldn't have killed?" The mantra became more serious, and Magistrate Chen could no longer avoid it.
"As a county official, sometimes... I have no choice but to do so."
Shi Cheng smiled and said, "How many people have you killed who shouldn't have been killed?"
Chen Zhixian's lips trembled for a while.
It's not that he doesn't want to tell the truth, it's that he doesn't know clearly.
"I have never killed anyone with my own hands. If I have to say that it is related to me, there are more than a dozen or twenty people..."
Shi Cheng didn't wait for Magistrate Chen to continue, and turned to Xu Zhiqiong and said: "Ma Changshi, although this person has not been punished for his crimes, he has committed many evil deeds during his lifetime. Logically speaking, he should be dealt with by your judge.
If you think you can't earn any merit, just ignore it. I'll let him be reincarnated as a beast. Now I understand the matter.
If you are willing to uphold the Taoist sect's duty, write a sentence for him and send him to prison so that he can be punished."
"Of course you have to keep your duty!" Xu Zhiqiong smiled, "No problem, I will personally interrogate Magistrate Chen."
Xu Zhiqiong was about to reminisce with Magistrate Chen when his chest trembled.
It's Fu Ji's painting.
Xu Zhiqiong opened the picture and took a look. The doll in the picture was grinning and crying.
In Qiancheng Kingdom, Xu Zhiqiong accepted more than a hundred judges. These more than a hundred judges all went to the Punishment Department. Only Fu Ji was left in the palace due to special circumstances.
It seems that I can't reminisce with Magistrate Chen today.
Zhuo Ling'er said: "Ma Lang, neither you nor I are judges, and we cannot write judgments for others without authorization. You just go back to the punishment department and call Bai Jiao over. When you encounter someone who has committed a heinous crime, let her deal with it."
"
Xu Zhiqiong nodded: "Qiancheng Yin Division, please leave it to Brother Shi, Ling'er, you can help me here."
Zhuo Ling'er looked at Yu Yancai and Dai Huiqin, and winked at Xu Zhiqiong.
These two are fifth-grade black and white envoys, and Zhuo Ling'er and Shi Cheng are both sixth-grade, so I'm afraid I won't be able to control these two people.
Xu Zhiqiong had already thought about it: "Unfettered and fearless!"
Jiang Shengqun and Li Jie really didn't want to answer.
"You two are here to protect Shi Yanjun!"
Jiang Shengqun has a fourth-grade cultivation level, and Li Jie is a smart man. With the help of these two people, one in literature and one in martial arts, and with Shi Cheng's mind, he should be able to suppress Qiancheng Yinsi.
Before leaving, Xu Zhiqiong took a look at Chen Zhixian.
Where has this guy's sin gone?
Based on what he has done, the crime will not be less than five inches, even if it is seven or eight inches, it is reasonable.
Because the Qiancheng Kingdom's judge's family has withered, how many sinners like him died like ordinary people, and when they arrived in the underworld, they were able to be reborn into wealthy families with generous burials.
And their sins are not taken away by the judge, but will be taken away by another person.
The sinner.
What will be the consequences if the sinner collects sin karma unscrupulously?
Xu Zhiqiong took Shen Shuliang and Ning Yongwei back to the Punishment Department, and asked Ning Yongwei to take Zhao Baijiao to the Underworld Department to help. Xu Zhiqiong took some inspiration from Shen Shuliang and returned to the mansion outside the city alone to see Fu.
Ji's situation.
Jiang Mengyun followed Xu Zhiqiong back to the Evil Punishment Division. She found Wu Si and told her what she had seen in the Underworld Division.
Wu Si sat silently in the officials' quarters for a long time and suddenly gave a wry smile.
Jiang Mengyun was surprised: "Why are you laughing?"
Wu Si shook his head and said: "Everyone in the Taoist sect said that Qiancheng Yinsi is hopeless, but the one who rescued it was actually an outsider."
"Even I am ashamed to say this." Jiang Mengyun said another thing, "Ma Shangfeng is not at a loss, he got two good things."
"what?"
Jiang Mengyun whispered a few words.
Wu Si's face showed a rare wave of emotion.
…
The divine machine eyes were lit in the wing room, and Xu Zhiqiong silently looked at the only spot of light in his eyes.
In the Qiancheng Kingdom, there is only one local judge in the world, and it is Fu Ji.
In Fu Ji's painting, the baby was already crying into tears.
Xu Zhiqiong originally thought that Fu Ji was about to die and was waiting to be injected with energy. He took a look at Fu Ji's condition, but found that he was pacing back and forth in the bedroom of Zhen'an Hall.
Isn't this a good life? What could have made him so anxious?
Xu Zhiqiong originally planned to use his magical eye to go directly to him and ask, but after thinking about it, he did not dare to act rashly.
It must be Hong Juncheng who caused Fu Ji to be in such a panic.
Hong Juncheng had always suspected Fu Ji, and Fu Ji was so panicked that he was probably under Hong Juncheng's close surveillance.
If I go to the palace now, not only will I not be able to save Fu Ji, but I will also deliver myself into the hands of Hong Juncheng.
But if we don't get in touch with Fu Ji, how can we know what happened?
Can you trace Fu Ji's previous experiences like you were in the dark room?
Shen Shuliang may have such means.
Xu Zhiqiong has never told Shen Shuliang and his son about Shenjiyan. Now that the situation in the Taoist sect has gradually stabilized, Xu Zhiqiong feels that it is time to tell the truth.
He was about to put out the candlestick and go to find Shen Shuliang. As soon as he reached out his hand, he was burned by the candle flame.
Xu Zhiqiong was stunned, feeling that what he was doing was ridiculous.
Why do you need to use your hands to extinguish a candle? Isn’t it just a matter of blowing it out?
Xu Zhiqiong put his lips towards it and was about to blow it away when his mouth was burned again.
Too close to the candlelight!
What's happening here?
It was just a matter of extinguishing a candle, how could it cause so many things?
How do I usually put out candles?
Is there any need to think about it? If I wave my sleeves, won’t the fire be extinguished?
Xu Zhiqiong waved his sleeves, but the fire was not extinguished, and his sleeves were burned!
Uncoordinated!
Xu Zhiqiong felt that his whole body was uncoordinated!
Summoning the Divine Machine Eye will cause physical disharmony due to chaotic energy. Xu Zhiqiong has become accustomed to this feeling and can resolve it by calming the energy with the power of imagery.
But Xu Zhiqiong couldn't resolve it this time.
It's not that the power of imagery doesn't work, it's that he simply can't mobilize the power of imagery.
What happened?
One of Xu Zhiqiong's eyes rolled up, and he barely controlled the other eye to look down.
He saw the stone eye.
The stone eye squirmed out of the box at some point and was now stuck to Xu Zhiqiong's clothes, silently staring at the magical eye on the candlestick!
I was negligent!
This thing is so evil, it should be kept in a small dark room and should not be carried around all the time.
Gotta take it off quickly!
Xu Zhiqiong stretched out his right hand with difficulty and was about to grab the stone eye lying on his waist.
In my mind, an idea suddenly flashed across my mind.
Don't touch it, don't touch it with your hands.
This stone eye can have such a serious impact on you even through your clothes. Once you come into direct contact with this stone eye with your skin, you are likely to lose control immediately.
If you can’t touch it with your hands, what should you use to touch it?
Retract your hand into the sleeve and use the sleeve to take it off?
No, clothes can't block its influence, and sleeves certainly can't block it either.
What can block it?
Xu Zhiqiong's thinking was a little confused and it was difficult to concentrate for a while.
Come to think of it, Snakeskin!
Xu Zhiqiong moved his left hand with difficulty and took out the piece of snake skin from his pocket.
The completely transparent snake skin slowly wrapped Xu Zhiqiong's left hand. Under the comfort of the snake skin, Xu Zhiqiong's thoughts refocused.
He carefully grabbed the stone eye.
A strange energy was impacting the palm, but it was firmly blocked by the snake skin.
Xu Zhiqiong slowly regained control of his body and struggled to sit up.
Shiyan's eyes slowly moved, his gaze always focused on the divine machine eye.
On top of the candlestick, Shen Jiyan's eyes moved around and finally saw the stone eye in Xu Zhiqiong's hand.
The two sides looked at each other, and there was a surge of energy. The divine eyes on the candlestick turned into dots of light and penetrated into the stone eyes.
