Without killing Liang Yuming, Xu Zhiqiong was very worried about the future.
But Xu Zhiqiong is not as frustrated as Wu Xu. Compared with Liang Yuming, there are more considerable gains in this battle.
After returning home, Xu Zhiqiong rubbed his hands, his eyes filled with greed, and took out eleven horns from his pocket.
These eleven horns were killed by him with his own hands.
There were still thirty-eight horns left. Xu Zhiqiong had not killed them, and he would not have earned any merit, so he found another bag to put them away and hid them in his clothes.
In this battle, he killed a total of nine eunuchs. Each eunuch's crime was just over two inches. Together, he could exchange for almost two hundred points of merit. This meant that he could skip the lower level of the eighth rank and be directly promoted to the eighth rank.
The middle section of the eighth grade.
There are also two large horns. The fourth-grade Suzaku's horn is eight inches and two-three inches, and Hao Quan's horn is slightly shorter, measuring seven and a half inches. Together, they can be exchanged for nearly one hundred and sixty points of merit.
It takes one hundred points of merit to be promoted to the eighth rank. Counting the thirty-eight merit points and three horns accumulated previously, together, it is almost possible to skip the lower and middle eighth ranks and go directly to the upper rank of the eighth rank.
Almost reached the upper level of eighth grade...
This is almost the same, but a little less interesting.
Xu Zhiqiong picked up the fourth-grade Suzaku horn again, looked at it for a long time, and said to himself: "It would be great if this was eight inches and five inches!"
"There is no eight-inch-five, only eight-inch-three."
"Only eight inches three?"
"Only eight inches three!"
"That's really bad..."
Who is speaking?
Xu Zhiqiong looked up and saw the Taoist priest standing in front of him.
Is he awake?
When did you wake up?
Why did it come so suddenly?
"Tao, Tao, Tao, Master, I have been practicing hard during this period..."
"Okay, okay!" The Taoist priest nodded repeatedly.
Even the Taoist priest said yes, proving that he didn't blame me.
"Well you thief Pi!"
The Taoist priest was furious and chased Xu Zhiqiong all over the house: "You were promoted to the upper ninth rank early, but you were still promoted to the eighth rank. But I thought something had happened. It turned out that you were secretly hiding your merits!"
I didn't expect the Taoist priest to lose such a temper.
Xu Zhiqiong hugged his horns and ran while saying: "Master, it is not against the conscience of our Taoist sect to punish evil and eradicate evil. I am saving this little merit to improve my cultivation as quickly as possible!"
"Is this one point? Just jump over to the eighth level!"
The Taoist priest chased for a long time, thinking that he had not woken up yet and his physical strength was a little weak, so he sat at the table and took a breath for a while.
"That's all, take these crimes with you and immediately go to the Punishment Department to exchange your merits. When you come back, I will help you rise to the eighth rank."
Once you reach the eighth rank, you can no longer kill people. It will be difficult to accumulate meritorious deeds in the future.
I want to directly attack the seventh level...
"Master, this disciple experienced a fierce battle last night. He was injured and still very sleepy. He really doesn't want to move today. How about waiting for a few more days..."
"Still waiting!" the Taoist priest said angrily, "If you wait a few more days, you will be a star official! Go quickly, don't ask for a beating!"
Xu Zhiqiong had no choice but to put on his mask and firewood stick and went to the Punishment Department.
No matter day or night, the Punishment Department was always foggy, and Xu Zhiqiong could not see the whole place clearly.
When we arrived near the Judge's Pavilion, a female judge came up to us and asked, "Are you Judge Ma?"
Does she know me?
But I don't know her.
The other person was wearing a mask and couldn't see his face, but his figure was quite plump.
Xu Zhiqiong nodded and said: "I am Ma Shangfeng."
"Senior Brother Ma, my little sister has made some tea. I have been waiting for you here for a long time. If you don't mind, please go to the next room to talk."
Senior brother?
You are a seventh-grade official, and I am a ninth-grade mortal official. You call me senior brother?
Xu Zhiqiong smiled naively, did not respond, lowered his head and left.
Another female promotion officer came up to us: "Ma Lang, I finally waited for you. It's been a hard time for me to wait."
It was Ma Lang again. Xu Zhiqiong didn't like this title, so he lowered his head and continued walking forward.
Two female promoters followed.
A recommendation officer said: "Senior brother, let's go to my little sister's place for a cup of tea. My little sister has no other intention. She just admires my senior brother and wants to chat with him."
Another official said: "What kind of tea are you drinking? My family has cooked wine in the Judge's Pavilion. Ma Lang, let's have two cups together."
Drink together?
After drinking together, do we still want to sleep together?
It's all business matters, don't make it so complicated. I still want to promote Xia Hu's brand.
Xu Zhiqiong just walked forward, but the two female promoters refused to leave.
"Senior brother, stay."
"Ma Lang, wait a minute."
"Brother!"
"Ma Lang!"
"Is it you who called Ma Lang?" Xia Hu's figure walked quickly in the thick fog.
Xu Zhiqiong smiled and approached him, but the two female promoters still wanted to entangle him.
Xia Hu said: "Don't waste your time, this is a member of my family."
"People from your family," the female promoter said with a smile, "can say this without being ashamed."
"What's there to be ashamed of?" Xia Hu said softly to Xu Zhiqiong, "Officials, don't pay attention to them. I've prepared tea and wine for you, my concubine."
This official voice made the two female promoters quiet down.
Xia Hu shivered. He had seen and talked about meat and fish, but he had never done anything truly meaty.
He dares to hug me? This thief!
Xia Hu calmed down for a moment, then gritted his teeth and endured.
Give him a hug, let him hug you, is that business...
Why did his hand slide down?
What kind of place is this? This is untouchable...
Xu Zhiqiong's hands began to fumble on the fat peach.
It doesn't hurt to let him touch it, just once...
Xu Zhiqiong didn't intend to touch it, and he didn't intend to leave his hand.
This, this, how many times has this happened? Why is this thief Pi not done yet?
What does he want?
What's cool?
He, he put his hand in!
Xia Hu panicked and was sweating all over.
Thief Pi, just wait for me!
After entering the Judge's Pavilion, Xia Hu pushed Xu Zhiqiong away, punched him and said, "Crazy man! How serious do you take me? I am a high-ranking official, how can I allow you to be so presumptuous? How dare you go in?"
Stretch out your hand, I have never been bullied like this since I was a child, you are so brave, you..."
During the beating, the horn in Xu Zhiqiong's arms fell to the ground.
"You, you, you..." Xia Hu swallowed his words and changed his tone, "Official, you, you have worked hard, sit down quickly."
Xu Zhiqiong curled his lips and said, "I just felt uncomfortable touching it."
"No, it's not pleasant?" Xia Hu was very nervous and her tongue was a little awkward, "Then, what about, how about you do it a couple more times?"
"Okay! Stop, don't move!" Xu Zhiqiong reached out towards Feitao again. Xia Hu blushed and pushed Xu Zhiqiong away.
"It's so good! Let's do serious things first!" Looking at the horns all over the ground, Xia Hu almost shed tears of excitement, "Where did you get so many sins? Did you kill all of them?"
Xu Zhiqiong nodded, he had killed all the sins that came out with his own hands, and the horns that were not killed by him were still hidden in another pocket.
Xia Hu sighed repeatedly: "Did you change your career and become an executioner?"
This operation was extremely secretive, and Xia Hu knew nothing about it. Xu Zhiqiong put his horns on the table, summoned the dead souls one by one, and started doing serious business.
First let go of the three horns that you saved earlier.
The gangster Lu Wu, together with two ninth-level thugs, lived by the Wang'an River and made a living by knocking out bone marrow.
A gangster like this who makes a living by extorting has countless crimes, including secret thefts, open robberies, beatings, burning shops, and even many cases of wounding people to death. The crimes are reflected in the mirror, and Xia Hu doesn't have much to say.
After putting a lot of thought into it, the three-point verdict was quickly written.
Lu Wu's crime karma was 4 inches 1, and the other two thugs, one was 3 inches 8, and the other was 3 inches 5. Together, the three of them had 114 merit points, which was almost as expected.
The two thugs were so distracted that they knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Xu Zhiqiong.
Lu Wu was calm and looked at Xu Zhiqiong with sneers.
what's the situation?
What is he laughing at?
Lu Wu has no fear of the Punishment Division. Is it because he has experienced something before? Is he already prepared for what is about to happen?
Lu Wu walked in front of Xu Zhiqiong and asked first: "Although you are wearing a mask, I can tell that you are the white lantern man named Xu, right?"
Xu Zhiqiong did not answer. There was no need for him to answer a prisoner's question.
Judging from his calm and calm expression, it seems that he has a certain understanding of the functions of a judge, and he also seems to be fully mentally prepared for what will happen next.
Seeing Xu Zhiqiong's silence, Lu Wu smiled: "I thought you really had the guts to kill me. After all, you are just an errand, you just dare to scare me. To tell you the truth, I am not afraid at all."
However, from the first moment I saw you, I knew what kind of person you were!
Lantern-carrying man? Lantern-carrying yamen? This is all nonsense! Aren’t you just a fifth-grade official among thousands of households? How dare he get so crazy in front of the Minister of Justice? I just need to say a few words to my cousin Bao Minister.
, in the blink of an eye, your head will fall to the ground."
Xu Zhiqiong retracted his previous judgment. This man knew nothing about the Punishment of Evil Division and was unprepared for what was about to happen. He just didn't know that he was already dead.
He thought that Xu Zhiqiong did not dare to kill him at that time, he thought that the Deng Deng Yamen had given in, and he thought that his distant cousin Bao Jingzhong had come to save him.
Lu Wu was very confident now: "Xu, you don't have to put on such a show to scare me. I've seen a lot of things. You put some clothes on for me first. When my cousin comes later, I'll do it for you."
Say a few words of kindness and save your life first. Whether I can keep your official robe depends on your luck."
Xu Zhiqiong looked at Xia Hu: "I want to sew his mouth shut."
Xia Hu nodded: "Then sew it up."
This girl is very virtuous, and she even has needlework on her body.
This is no ordinary needle and thread, it is a torture tool specially used to punish the dead souls.
Xu Zhiqiong took the needle and thread, stepped forward and pinched Lu Wu's lips.
"Xu, how dare you, don't, don't, I beg you..."
After more than ten stitches in a row, Xu Zhiqiong kicked Lu Wu into the corner.
Next, it was time to hear the main case, and Xu Zhiqiong took out the longest horn.
This horn belongs to the fourth grade of Suzaku.
The knowledge of the fourth-level cultivator is naturally very different from that of the troublemaker on the street. The cultivator looked around, then stared at Xu Zhiqiong and Xia Hu, and asked: "Are you a judge of evil?"
?”
evil ways?
Xu Zhiqiong sneered: "You call me evil? You are so shameless! Madam, bring me the needle and thread, and I will sew his mouth shut!"
