Chapter 262: The Massacre of a Hundred Years Ago
The old county commander smiled: "That's it, when I was an official in the past, I bought good tea, and at that time I would rather skip dinner than drink a good drink." ”
After speaking, seeing Chu Xian look at him again, the old county commander smiled bitterly: "That's it, I know that I can't hide this matter." ”
After that, the old county order told Chu Xian a story.
A story that happened a hundred years ago.
There are three outsiders who come to Yaoguang County to beg for a living, these three people are strong in martial arts, have capital, and also have means, so they quickly opened up the situation, and they became a wealthy family in a few years.
There is a good saying, when you are poor, you are brothers, and when you are rich, you are enemies in life.
Originally, it was three brothers who came out to fight for the world, but after they developed, they turned against each other because of some contradictions, and finally they reached the point of being on the same page.
The three of them fought each other, but two of them were smart enough to know that it would not be a long-term thing to fight like this, and they would lose all three, so they thought of a way.
Chu Xian said at this time: "Unite one person and suppress the other." ”
"Lord Fu Ling's strategy is unparalleled, yes, there are two people, they are plotting to join forces to deal with the other person together. The old county ling's expression fell into memory, as if he remembered something bad, his face was a little unsightly, and he was a little afraid.
"It's just that those two people have done something too much, or maybe they know that if they don't do it, they will forget it, and once they do it, they must be ruthless, so they not only want that person's life, but also make that person's family and children live and die, which is equivalent to the destruction of the family. ”
The old county order spoke slowly, and Chu Xian frowned when he listened.
Such a method is indeed murderous.
"At that time, I was the county magistrate, responsible for investigating the family's tragedy, and after twists and turns, I finally found out the culprit, and also brought the two masterminds to justice, and beheaded them in public, but the dead could not be resurrected, so at this time, the old decay is still fresh in my memory. The old county order said this, and Chu Xian had already guessed the approximate.
"The people who conspired with the two families are the ancestors of the Lu family and the Yao family?" Chu Xian asked.
The old county commander nodded.
Chu Xian knew that the crux of the problem now was the family that was wiped out, if nothing else, it should have something to do with the current case of the two families surnamed Lu and Yao.
Even, it is cause and effect.
The old county magistrate looked around at this time, as if he was worried that someone was peeping and listening, and after a while, he said in a very small voice: "Later, many years have passed, one day I fell asleep when I was reading the file at the county office, and when I woke up, it was already dark, and there was a person standing opposite the bookcase. You must know that the outer door of my study is guarded by officials, and ordinary people can't enter at all. ”
Chu Xian didn't speak, and listened quietly.
"At that time, I was surprised, but I was not very afraid, if the other party was a killer, he could kill me while I was asleep, but he didn't, but waited for me to wake up, besides, I saw that he was wearing a hellish official uniform. The old county order said this, and Chu Xian said: "Is it a Yin official?"
"Yes, it seems that it should be the first level of the head catcher in the hell, and the other party's ability is not bad, he saw that I was done, so he saluted and thanked me, at that time I asked who he was, why thank me? He said that he and his family were killed by thieves, thanks to my impartial law enforcement, exhausted my efforts, and finally found out the truth, brought the real culprit to justice, and avenged them. After the head catcher of the hell arrived at Xie, he was about to leave, and I asked him what his name was, and he said, his surname is Lian!"
"Coincidentally, the family that was destroyed by the Lu family and the Yao family before was the Lian family, in addition, I asked someone afterwards, the Yin official head catcher and the ancestor of the Lian family I saw that night were exactly the same, who would have thought that the head of the Lian family who was killed by the Lu family and the Yao family actually became a Yin official after his death, if the Lu family and the Yao family knew, I am afraid that they would not even be able to sleep well. ”
Chu Xian thought for a moment at this time and said: "A hundred years ago, it was the head catcher of the underworld, for such a long time, as long as there are some means, it is possible to sit on the parade, and even the position of judge, if so, it is easy to kill so many people with ghost magic." ”
The old county commander naturally knew what Chu Xian meant, and immediately shook his head and said: "No, definitely not, then the underworld also has rules, and even the laws are more stringent, even if it is a loose cultivation in the underworld, they may not dare to come to the world to do such a thing, let alone a yin official? ”
Chu Xian smiled: "Fan Chengshui is also an official of the Holy Dynasty, but what he did, which one of them did not violate the laws of the Holy Dynasty?"
At this moment, the old county commander's expression froze and he was speechless.
"Anyway, this time it's thanks to the old county for ordering you. Chu Xian knew that the other party had already said everything he knew, which was already a huge help to himself.
Seeing that Chu Xian was about to leave, the old county commander hurriedly stopped Chu Xian, and then went to get a few things in person, which were a bunch of papers.
"Lord Fu Ling, because the Yin official came to me to thank me, when I left, I looked at his eyes, with a kind of hatred, I knew that this matter was not over, so I deliberately kept the file of that case, I thought that after so long, nothing would happen again, but I didn't expect that something would happen, the ancestors of the Lu family and the Yao family were beheaded by me, and their clansmen split up and lived separately, but I didn't expect that this time the whole clan was wiped out!"
Speaking of this, the old county magistrate was embarrassed, Chu Xian took the file, got up and said: "Some people can laugh at enmity, and some people have a thousand-year-old grudge, there is no way." ”
The old county order sent him out, and Chu Xian asked him to stay and leave alone.
Now there are clues to the matter, a hundred years ago, the ancestor of the Lian family who was destroyed by the Lu Yao family is very likely to be the real murderer of this murder.
has the motives, the ability, and almost everything that can be occupied, and the evil ghost that Chu Xian encountered before is not like a lonely ghost and a wild ghost, but an evil ghost with an orthodox ghost cultivation method, which is something that ordinary people can drive?
If it is a yin official in the underworld, it is too easy, as an official, who does not have a few reliable subordinates in his hands?
Now that he has clues, Chu Xian has to continue to investigate, whether it is the Yin official surnamed Lian or not, he has to check it. But at this time, a secret order came to Chu Xian's hand, it was a purple paper crane, extremely fast, falling from the sky and falling in front of Chu Xian.
Chu Xian knew that this was a paper crane technique that could only be used by the high-level of the Holy Dynasty, and it was extremely confidential, only when the corresponding official talisman was opened, Chu Xian did not dare to slack off, and immediately cleared the scene, and then opened it cautiously to read.
After reading it, Chu Xian frowned, pondered for a moment, and then called a few officials and the Luo family brothers and sisters he brought.
"This official has an urgent matter to return to the city government first, and he can rush back tomorrow at most, and you must continue to investigate the case, and there must be no mistakes. After Chu Xian finished explaining, he went out of the city alone, and then performed a crow wind change outside, turning into a black feather crow and flying up, quickly flying in the direction of Yunlong City.
Chu Xian was in such a hurry, there was no way to do it, the secret order he got was written by a big man, and it was still an extremely urgent matter, and it must not be delayed.
It's not just urgent, it's confidential.
It's also thanks to Chu Xian that he learned the art of change and can fly, otherwise he won't be able to go back for a while.
From Yaoguang County to Yunlong City, Chu Xian only flew in half an hour, this time, Chu Xian landed directly in the city mansion, and then walked quickly to his study.
At the door of the study, there stood a guard dressed in a flowing cloud black chess brocade robe, holding a four-foot golden sword.
Chu Xian just glanced at it, and knew that the strength of this guard was extremely strong, and he should already be at the peak of the Martial Arts Grandmaster, and it was estimated that he was only one step away from the Martial Saint.
Or, half a step.
Such a strong man is actually just a guard.
Chu Xian straightened his clothes at this time, and then stepped forward: "Yunlong City Mansion ordered Chu Xian to ask to see your lord." ”
The guard was unmoved, but a voice came from the study: "Come in." ”
The guard took a step aside, Chu Xian took a deep breath and stepped in.
A person inside is flipping through the books on the bookcase, and you can see that Chu Xian's bookcase is full of all kinds of documents and files, Chu Xian's governance, no matter how big or small, has to pass his eyes, although it is only a small Yunlong City, but there are many counties, and there are many government affairs.
When Chu Xian saw the people in the room, he immediately bowed and saluted: "Chu Xian has seen Lord Zhongshu!"
The person in the study was tall and elegant, and said at this moment: "I have heard Cui Huanzhi talk about you a long time ago, yes, you are so diligent and decisive, you are indeed an official." ”
Obviously, this Zhongshu Master is the Holy Dynasty Sanpin Zhongshu Ling, Dao Immortal Xiao Yu.
Why did Lord Zhongshu come to this small Cloud Dragon City? Chu Xian knew the reason, it was because of a recital he had written before.
About the Holy Land of Suran.
Chu Xian knew that it was impossible for the Holy Dynasty not to pay attention to this matter, and there was no movement at the beginning, it was like a stone sinking into the sea, but now, Chu Xian knew that it should not be that he did not pay attention to it, but that the upper echelons must have gone through a game, and the result was good, Xiao Zhongshu came, indicating that Xiao Zhongshu's department had the upper hand.
Speaking of which, Chu Xian can also be regarded as a person on Xiao Yu's side, if his official position was too low before, Xiao Yu would not remember himself as a person. However, although the official position has improved a lot, it is only a six-grade product, which can barely make Xiao Yu pay attention to it.
But this time, Chu Xian can definitely occupy a major position on Xiao Yu's side.
Because of the things in the Holy Land of Suran.
Xiao Yu came this time for the sake of the Holy Land of Sulan, so this Sanpin Zhongshu Ling also had no nonsense, and asked directly: "I read the book you wrote, what is said in it, but the truth?"
Chu Xian nodded: "Lord Zhongshu, Chu Xian will never dare to make up this matter." ”
"Okay, take me. ”
"Yes. ”
Following Xiao Yu out, Xiao Yu stretched out his hand a little, and Chu Xian immediately felt the wind spell blessed all over his body, but this wind spell is different from the general wind spell, the general wind spell can only make people walk like the wind, but Xiao Yu's wind spell can directly roll people up, and then fly in the sky.
That speed was much faster than Chu Xian's black wind change.
