Chapter 33 The Law Enforcement Court asks the case!
In the law enforcement hall, the view is dim.
This is a small house, with all sides made of fine iron, engraved with runes, and equipped with formations!
Everywhere you look are instruments of torture, and you will be frightened when you see them!
Li Zhengjing sat in the dark room with a calm expression.
Next to him, there was an ordinary potted tree and a strange-looking mortal bird, but it was silent.
After a while, Xie Changqing, the elder of the inner sect who was on duty at the Law Enforcement Hall, came slowly, holding a book and a pen in one hand.
"Master nephew, I haven't seen you for a long time. I'm asking you a routine question today. Don't be nervous."
"Six days ago, Chen Youyu, the former deacon of the outer sect, was demoted to Bailing City and killed by a murderer. Do you know about this?"
"Know."
Li Zheng nodded.
At the same time, in the house next door, Gao Changhe breathed a sigh of relief.
"If he can frankly admit that he knows about this matter, I guess it won't be a big problem."
Gao Changhe thought about it this way. He knew that this matter was causing an uproar and had already spread to Wanlin County, so Li Zhengjing must have known about it.
If you pretend not to know, then there is something wrong in your heart, and in all likelihood it has something to do with him.
Just as he was thinking this, he heard the sound coming again.
"As far as I know, Chen Youyu suppressed you when he was the deacon of the outer sect!"
"And this time he was demoted from the mountain gate because he failed to take care of the spiritual beasts, which almost cost you your life."
"Actually, in my opinion, maybe he deliberately harmed you about the spiritual beast."
Xie Changqing said: "It seems that you have a lot of grudges against him. Have you ever thought about killing him?"
"This disciple has indeed had murderous intentions!"
Li Zhengjing came truthfully, spread his hands and said: "It's just that my disciple's skills are limited. In the past, I only practiced external skills, but now I have only been able to cultivate inner energy for less than a month. How dare I kill an outer sect deacon who has cultivated the realm of 'inner energy' for more than 40 years?"
?”
"But the day before Chen Youyu was killed, you took over the evil case in Wanlin County, Qixing Prefecture."
Xie Changqing said: "Since you know that you have just entered the realm of inner energy and your skills are shallow, how can you dare to take on such a dangerous case?"
Li Zhengjing responded: "At that time, I didn't know how high this evil cultivator's ability was. The disciple had just developed his internal energy and was arrogant in his heart. He thought he could solve this case!"
Xie Changqing asked slowly: "Isn't it because Bailing Mansion is adjacent to Qixing Mansion that you can kill Chen Youyu?"
Li Zhengjing looked indifferent and said: "As far as the disciple knows, when Chen Youyu was killed, the disciple should be still on the way to Wanlin County, Qixing Prefecture. How can this matter be related to the disciple?"
"You have never gone to Wanlin County, Qixing Prefecture!"
At this moment, another voice came and said, "I never saw you that day."
The person who came was a middle-aged man, probably in his early forties, with a fair face and no beard, and a strong aura, which was already at the peak level of inner energy.
Li Zhengjing looked at his waistband, narrowed his eyes, and then smiled.
Inner disciple, Chen Yang!
This name is no stranger to me these days!
Did this character who was hiding behind the scenes surface so quickly?
"There is no proof, just your one-sided statement?"
Li Zhengjing looked at him and said slowly: "Senior brother Chen Yang, what are you doing on the only way to Wanlin County in Qixing Prefecture? Is it to intercept and kill junior brother?"
"What? You still want to interrogate me?"
Chen Yang had no expression on his face, then he saluted Xie Changqing and said, "Uncle Master, this person is most likely the murderer of Uncle Chen Youyu!"
"Don't make false claims without evidence!"
Xie Changqing said: "Without any evidence, do you want to convict him just based on your words?"
Chen Yang wanted to speak, but Xie Changqing had already taken out the file and threw it in front of him.
"The file records that he set off from Shanmen in the morning and arrived at Wanlin County in the evening."
"And Chen Youyu was killed at noon. He was halfway there at that time and could not reach Daliao City where Chen Youyu was!"
"He doesn't have much suspicion. He was just summoned for routine questioning."
"Chen Yang, you have recently been transferred as a disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall. You can participate in questioning, but you cannot act recklessly!"
Xie Changqing spoke slowly with a solemn tone.
"Thank you, Elder!" Chen Yang looked as usual and said seriously: "The disciple infers that if there is a magical talisman, he can reach Daliao City in half a day, and Wanlin County in the remaining half day!"
"Then have you found the magic talisman?" Xie Changqing asked.
"No." Chen Yang muttered: "He probably destroyed the physical evidence in advance."
"The Divine Talisman is not a common thing, and he may not be willing to part with it." Xie Changqing mocked, and then asked again: "Then have you found the record of him exchanging the Divine Talisman in the official hall?"
"No." Chen Yang shook his head slightly.
"Your Chen clan sent dozens of people to Daliao City and found any clues about Li Zhengjing?" Xie Changqing asked again.
"No." Chen Yang continued: "The murderer used a fire to wipe out all the clues. Even the snakes, insects, rats and ants in the surrounding area have fled, and Junior Sister He Qingyu of the Beast Control Hall has not been able to find out."
"Then why are you sure it's him?" Xie Changqing said.
"..."
Chen Yang fell silent.
It can't be said that he personally ambush Li Zhengjing and know that he did not go directly to Wanlin County?
Not to mention that after Wanlin County, he sent Chen Bing and Zhou Mo to intercept and kill him halfway, but they died today!
"Elder Xie, he has a deep grudge with Chen Youyu, and he happened to go down the mountain that day, so he is the most suspicious! And..."
Chen Yang said in a serious tone: "The Great Elder ordered the disciples to investigate this matter. The disciples must not let go of anyone who is suspicious!"
He carried out the great elder, and Xie Changqing's face immediately turned extremely ugly.
In the house next door, Gao Changhe shook his head slightly and sighed.
He was not sure in his heart whether Li Zhengjing was the murderer.
Because others don’t have magical talismans, this little bird on the wall must have one!
Although Li Zhengjing entered the realm of inner energy for the first time, he captured a black-robed evil cultivator from Wanlin County who was in the upper realm of inner energy!
Chen Youyu is old and may not be as powerful as that evil cultivator in black robes when he was in his prime!
"Since it involves the little bird Bai Guabi, Li Zhengjing has the merit of escorting it, so he should be able to ask for the token of Lord Bai Xiao!"
"This Chen Yang is obviously unwilling to pay attention to real evidence. He used the name of the inner sect elder Chen Zhu and wanted the Law Enforcement Hall to seek favoritism. Without conclusive evidence, he directly killed Li Zhengjing!"
"Chen Youyu is a disciple of the Yuhua Xian Sect. He was assassinated within the jurisdiction of the Xian Sect. The impact was extremely bad. The Law Enforcement Hall must solve the case as soon as possible."
"If pressure is exerted in the name of Elder Chen Zhu, then the culprit in this case, whether he is Li Zhengjing or not, will probably be treated as a scapegoat in the end!"
"Now it seems that only when I use Venerable Bai Xiao's name can I outweigh Chen Zhu's name and resolve this matter!"
With this thought in mind, Gao Changhe lightly knocked on the wall and left to ask for the token left by Lord Bai Xiao.
Xie Changqing's true energy had penetrated his ear openings, and immediately his ears moved slightly and he heard subtle signals.
"Senior Brother Gao takes the first step. Should he give up on Li Zhengjing or find another way to protect him?"
"Chen Yang is nothing to worry about, but if it is really the order of Elder Chen Zhu, I'm afraid I won't be able to get involved in this matter."
Xie Changqing thought about it, but he saw Chen Yang, who had used the name of Elder Chen Zhu. At this moment, he no longer had any scruples about him and stood in front of Li Zhengjing.
"Deacon Chen Youyu, were you killed?" Chen Yang asked.
"Do you think I can kill Chen Youyu after cultivating my inner energy for more than 20 days?" Li Zhengjing asked rhetorically.
"When you first developed inner energy, you killed spiritual beasts with your strength. This time when you went down the mountain, you even captured an evil cultivator from Wanlin County who was in the upper realm of inner energy."
Chen Yang said: "With such skill, it is not difficult to kill Chen Youyu!"
When he said this, he couldn't help but feel a little shocked in his heart.
But the more shocked he was, the more he wanted to kill Li Zhengjing.
Otherwise, how can we suppress this child when he grows up?
"It should be written in the case file that this evil cultivator was seriously injured and had already lost his arm. His skills are at a loss."
Li Zhengjing spread his hands and said: "He only has this little ability left. If I can't defeat him, wouldn't it be an insult to the master?"
"Junior brother Li's eloquence is really good."
Chen Yang reached into his arms, took out a piece of paper, and said: "Then let's not mention the matter of Chen Youyu. Do you know that Chen Bing and Zhou Mo, who were investigating the case with you in Wanlin County, were arrested this afternoon?
kill?"
Li Zhengjing looked shocked and asked: "Are the two senior brothers dead? Was their death tragic?"
Chen Yang said expressionlessly: "They died on your way back!"
Li Zhengjing was even more surprised and exclaimed: "Didn't they go to Wanlin County to investigate the attack on Chen Youyu? How could they die on this road? Could it be that they chose a place to die?"
Chen Yang took half a step forward and whispered: "Chen knows that they died because of you!"
Li Zhengjing sighed and said, "Are you saying that you want to condemn me again? This is the Yuhua Immortal Sect, not your Chen clan!"
"By the way, I heard in Wanlin County that more than ten or twenty people from the Chen clan died around Qixing Mansion and Bailing Mansion..."
"Chen Yang, you might as well frame all the Chen family members who were killed recently on me."
After finishing speaking, Li Zhengjing showed a sarcastic look on his face and said: "It's all a capital crime anyway, and the debts are too heavy to bear!"
"Today's interrogation ends here!"
Xie Changqing suddenly spoke and said: "Li Zhengjing, you are here and are not allowed to leave until the suspicion is cleared!"
When the voice fell, he walked away with a puff of his sleeves.
Seeing this, Chen Yang had no choice but to give up, chuckled, glanced at Li Zhengjing, and said, "If the culprit cannot be found, the case will be difficult to investigate! But since I have identified the culprit, I can naturally bring you to justice!"
Li Zhengjing looked at him quietly, his mind falling on the golden page of the book.
There is still no change in the aspect of fortune!
What happened today will not pose a threat to him!
"In vain, I thought that Chen Yang, who was hiding behind the scenes, was such a cunning and scheming figure. Today it seems... he is just a character like Chen Youyu."
Li Zhengjing thought like this and thought to himself: "Such a person really dares to tamper with the internal energy of viscera and qi nourishing?"
