Li Qiufeng and Monk Xuanji already knew it, and they were not surprised when they heard what Miao Zhu said. Li Qiufeng said in a deep voice: "How many adults have arrived in the yamen?"

Miao Zhu said in a trembling voice: "Yin Zhutou, Master Feng, and a few other leaders have arrived. called the villain for questioning early in the morning, and was so frightened that the villain almost fainted. Uncle, you didn't see that those people died so miserably. If this becomes a terrible ghost and makes trouble outside our City God Temple, then it will be worth it?! Grandma Chenghuang blesses, let these unjust souls ascend to bliss as soon as possible, reincarnate as a human being, and don't stay outside our City God Temple to harm people. Amitabha. ”

Li Qiufeng listened to the temple blessing's indiscriminate prayers, laughed in his heart, and said: "This is a coincidence. This master is very powerful, and he is good at catching ghosts and subduing demons, and with him here, you don't have to be afraid. When he recites a Diamond Sutra to you, you can naturally surpass those souls and go to the Western Heaven Elysium. ”

Miao Zhu was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly saluted the monk Xuanji. The monk Xuanji knew that Li Qiufeng was afraid that Miao Zhu would doubt himself, so he found an excuse to dispel Miao Zhu's doubts. He didn't say anything, he only said that he would definitely recite the scriptures to surpass the soul, and he didn't have to be afraid if he wanted the temple.

Li Qiufeng saw that Miaozhu was not as panicked as Fang Cai, so he asked, "Didn't Lord Yu Fan Yu come?"

Miaozhu shook his head and said, "Lord Yu hasn't arrived yet." But with so many people dead, it stands to reason that he should have been there in person. Although this is an adult who has only been in office for more than a month, he must bow down to everything and deal with things fairly, and the people of Xiuwu County say that he is a good official. The villain heard that Uncle Li was a friend of Lord Yu, and he also admired Uncle Li very much. ”

Li Qiufeng originally had a lot of respect for the sail, but after the events of the past two days, he found that although this person was indifferent to fame and fortune on the surface, he was actually a person who was enthusiastic about his career, and he already had a bad feeling for the sail. He thought to himself that the great traitors and evildoers in the world are the best at deceiving people. Yu Fan is like this, how can Huang Chong not be? I heard before that this person is honest and honest, and he is a rare good official. But yesterday, when I overheard Huang Chong talking to Hu Kun, I realized that this person was very scheming and a difficult person to deal with.

Li Qiufeng thought of this, and his heart suddenly sank, but he remembered something. He had heard Yin Zhutou and others say that Huang Chong was quite respected by the people of Xiuwu County, and he was promoted to his official position several times by the Ministry of Officials, but the people of Xiuwu County did not want him to leave, so he sent the three elders to the Yamen of the Luoyang Prefect and the Yamen of Henan Governor to ask for his life, and Huang Chong stayed in Xiuwu County. However, according to the fact that he overheard Huang Chong, Han Qusi, and Ji Dingzhong talking last night, Huang Chong's stay in Xiuwu County was the idea of Ji Dingzhong, not his own intention. Moreover, Zhang Baixing even ridiculed Huang Chong with this matter, pointing out that Huang Chong was at odds with Ji Ding, because everyone blocked his path to promotion and forced him to succumb to Xiuwu County, and he could only be a small magistrate. But why did Ji Ding and others let Huang Chong stay in Xiuwu County all the time, this matter is strange.

While he was thinking, he suddenly heard footsteps in the courtyard. Miao Zhu's face changed, and he said to Li Qiufeng and Monk Xuanji: "Uncle Li and the master will wait a minute, and the villain will go and see who is coming." ”

After the temple was finished, he turned around and walked towards the door. It's just that he was still a few steps away from the door, and the footsteps of the visitor were already outside the door. Immediately afterwards, I heard someone say respectfully: "Is Li Daxia here?" Yin Ruyan and Feng Zizai came to meet Li Daxia. ”

Li Qiufeng and the monk Xuanji have profound internal skills, and the people who came are still a few zhang away, and they have heard that a total of two people have walked into the courtyard. At this time, listening to the other party's self-report, Li Qiufeng relieved himself. Miao Zhu heard that it was Yin Zhutou and Master Feng who had arrived, so he hurriedly opened the door, but saw Yin Zhutou and Master Feng standing outside the door one after the other. Miaozhu's face was full of joy, and he nodded and said, "The villain has seen Yin Zhutou, Master Feng." ”

Yin Zhutou ignored him, arched his hand straight towards Li Qiufeng, and said, "Li Daxia, I'm really embarrassed to disturb me so early." It's just that the incident happened suddenly, and we were in trouble, and we hope that the heroes will not hesitate to help......"

When he said this, he suddenly found that the mysterious monk was also in the room, and he was surprised and delighted. I was shocked that I just came to ask Li Qiufeng for help, but I didn't expect that there was one more person in the house. The joy is that the Xuanji monk is strong in martial arts, he suddenly appeared in Xiuwu County, but he has one more strong reinforcement, and he has more confidence to do things. It was he who said in a trembling voice: "I didn't expect the master to have arrived, this, this is really good." ”

Li Qiufeng said: "Yin Zhutou, Master Feng, please come in and talk." ”

Yin Zhutou agreed, and then walked into the house with Master Feng one after the other. The temple was also interested, and quietly walked out and closed the door with his hand.

After the four of them sat down, Yin Zhutou was about to speak, when Li Qiufeng preemptively said: "Yin Zhutou, you and Master Feng came to find Li for the seven corpses outside the temple." ”

Yin Zhutou and Master Feng were shocked, and couldn't help but glance at each other, and then they looked at Li Qiufeng together, and their hearts were shocked. Li Qiufeng said: "Those seven people were killed by Li. ”

As soon as Li Qiufeng said this, Yin Zhutou and Master Feng were so frightened that they stood up. Master Feng had a wide robe and big sleeves, and his body trembled when he stood up, and his sleeves inadvertently hit the table, knocking over an empty teacup. The teacup tumbled on the table, falling straight underneath. When Yin Zhutou and Master Feng heard that Li Qiufeng had killed someone, they were shocked and at a loss, watching the cup fall straight to the ground. The Xuanji monk flicked his sleeves, and the cup was rolled into the sleeve between the lightning and flint. I saw his sleeves folded and swept gently on the table. By the time his sleeve was withdrawn, the cup was firmly in its place.

I saw that the monk Xuanji smiled slightly, and said: "The poor monk also has a share in the murder." “

Yin Zhutou and Master Feng saw that the monk Xuanji showed this martial art, and they were both shocked and admired. It's just that when they heard the Xuanji monk say this, the two of them trembled, and their faces became even more ugly.

Li Qiufeng said: "Please sit down, and when Li explains this matter in detail to the two of you, let's discuss it again." ”

Yin Zhutou and Master Feng sat down with a pinch, and Li Qiufeng told him about the attack after leaving the Liu family's old mansion last night. It's just that later, he naturally omitted to talk about his night visit to the county government. He said to Yin and Feng: "After Li killed someone, he went to Yamen to report the case. But on the way, he encountered a group of people holding swords, stopped Li, and interrogated Li where he was going. Li said that he was going to the county government to report the case, and as soon as these people heard that Li was going to the yamen, they immediately waved their swords and pounced. Li didn't want to hurt the innocent, so he had to escape and return to the City God Temple. After Li discussed with Master Xuanji, he planned to wait in the temple first, and after the dawn, he would go to the yamen to report to the official. I didn't expect the two of us to come so quickly and get ahead of us. ”

Yin Zhutou and Master Feng breathed a sigh of relief when they heard Li Qiufeng say this. Yin Zhutou said: "Li Daxia doesn't know, something happened in the city last night. Ruyangwei commanded Hu Kun and Lord Hu's son to be killed in the city, and Lord Hu was angry, and even led his troops to break the city gate and broke through to the county yamen. Hu Gongzi teased our Miss Huang the day before yesterday, because Hu suspected that Huang sent someone to kill Hu Gongzi, so he led troops to surround the county government and asked Huang to hand over the murderer. Fortunately, the Han prefect came forward to mediate, and Hu Dacai withdrew from the city. These adults were worried that someone would cause trouble in the city, so they immediately assigned men to guard the county office. The two sects of Luoyang Shijia Dao and Thunder Fist Sect were brought to Xiuwu County by Lord Han, and they have always obeyed Lord Han's orders. It was Lord Han who asked the disciples of these two sects to stay outside the Zhixian Yamen. Thinking that these people didn't know the origin of Li Daxia, they immediately stepped forward to besiege him. If we catch the Yamen of Xiuwu County, most of them know Li Daxia, and they will definitely not dare to make a move against Li Daxia. ”

Li Qiufeng said: "The two of you came just in time, Li was about to inform Lord Huang and Lord Yu about this. The stakes are so high that there must be no delay. ”

Although Yin Zhutou and Master Feng are just small officials the size of sesame mung beans, after all, they have been fighting for decades in a place like Zhixian Yamen, where dragons and snakes are mixed, and they can be said to be the human essence of the human spirit. When the two of them first heard Li Qiufeng admit to killing someone, they secretly screamed "not good" in their hearts. In the hearts of the two, they had already decided that Li Qiufeng was a Jinyi guard who was ordered to run errands, and they knew that they could not afford to offend. If the seven people outside the temple were really killed by Li Qiufeng, this case would not be investigated. It's just that killing seven people at a time is a shocking and serious case, and the magistrate must solve the case within a time limit. The two are caught in the middle, and the matter is extremely difficult to deal with. At this time, when they heard that Li Qiufeng was going to see Zhixian and Xiancheng, both of them breathed a sigh of relief, and thought to themselves: "It's best for you to go and say it yourself, so as not to embarrass us." ”
