Chapter 96: This time, revenge will not be delayed overnight, the county magistrate who aided and abetted the evil
Chen Xingyun suddenly clenched her fists, feeling both nervous and excited. She didn't expect her mother to directly ask her to open a shop.
She once had such a wish, hoping that she could own a shop and do business that she likes, but she didn't expect it to come true so soon.
"Yes, Mom, I can do it!"
She agreed without hesitation. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and she would not allow herself to miss it.
"That's good." Xiao Ying was very satisfied with her decisiveness, and looked at Chen Xingyue: "Xingyue, you are still young, so you should train with Xingyun first, and protect her safety at the same time."
Chen Xingyue's eyes lit up as well, and she patted her chest and said, "Don't worry, Mom. I will definitely protect Big Sister."
She didn't expect that she could be useful and she finally didn't have to stay at home to dry peppers.
Seeing that Xiao Ying had arranged everything in an orderly manner and that the brothers and sisters all had their own things to do, Chen Xinghe suddenly felt a little envious, as he was the only one who could not do anything to help at home.
"Mom, then I..."
"Just go study hard and come back to visit me during your break."
Xiao Ying said, Chen Xinghe pursed his lower lip and nodded.
Chen Zhang was stunned. The second daughter-in-law actually entrusted such an important matter to these children? She even lent Xingyun a hundred taels. Wasn't she afraid that she would lose everything?
But when she thought about her second daughter-in-law's abilities, which were very different from before, she swallowed her worries back into her stomach.
After she left, Sister Chen Xingyun started to cook dinner.
Chen Xinghe took the opportunity to ask, "Mom, how did you do it today?"
He stared at his mother intently. He had endured this for the entire afternoon and now he really couldn't bear it anymore.
Xiao Ying asked with a smile: "Have you heard of cultivating immortals? This is the method used by cultivators."
Chen Xinghe opened his eyes wide in shock. He originally thought it was some kind of legendary internal energy, but he didn't expect that his mother was actually a cultivator!
He had heard in the academy that there were monks in the world, but he thought they were all lies. He didn't expect that his mother was one of them.
"Then the elder brother, elder sister and younger sister..."
He suddenly thought of this matter again. His mother just told him to let his younger sister protect his elder sister. Is it because his younger sister also has such means?
When we encountered bandits today, my younger sister wanted to help my mother and was not as scared as they were.
Xiao Ying nodded slightly: "Xingyue has already entered the sect, but your elder brother and elder sister have not yet developed spiritual roots."
"What are spiritual roots? Mom, can you tell me more about it? Can I learn from you?"
Chen Xinghe grabbed her sleeve excitedly. Everyone in the family was practicing, but he knew nothing. He felt as if he was abandoned.
During this period, Xiao Ying also observed his character. Although he liked to act aloof in front of outsiders, he actually had a good character.
So he told him in detail about cultivation and helped him test his spiritual roots.
Unfortunately, Chen Xinghe also has no spiritual roots.
"Then I can't practice anymore?"
Chen Xinghe's face was immediately filled with disappointment. He didn't want to miss this opportunity.
"You can use spiritual spring water to warm it up like Xinghai Xingyun did. Maybe spiritual roots will grow someday. You are still young, so there is no need to worry too much."
Xiao Ying comforted him with a warm expression. In fact, Chen Xinghe was very close to having spiritual roots. During the test just now, the amount of spiritual energy absorbed and lost was very close.
In this situation, it is easy to grow spiritual roots.
Besides, there are several spiritual herbs in the fairy palace. She just wants Chen Xinghe to adapt to the spiritual energy and warm up his meridians first.
"good."
Chen Xinghe quickly smiled again, as long as there was a chance.
So from that night on, there was another person named Chen Xinghe who came to bathe in the spiritual spring water.
Xiao Ying was thinking about Zhou Tianci's matter. Judging from the county magistrate's performance, things might not go as she wished.
She decided to go and have a look soon.
If Zhou Tianci was still in prison, she would kill him directly. She never liked to wait until the next day to take revenge.
Although the other party has committed a capital crime by hiring a killer, given the Zhou family's influence in the county, it is very likely that they can save him.
In the afternoon, she saw a man who was suspected to be Zhou Tianci's biological father enter the county government office and go to the backyard with the county magistrate.
Zhou Tianci has sent people to kill her twice, and this matter absolutely cannot be let go like this.
Of course, the most likely possibility is that the person has already been released. Judging from the county magistrate's behavior, it is obvious that he is not a good person.
A hint of coldness flashed across her eyes. She thought it would be better if the county magistrate did not do this, otherwise she would not mind settling accounts with him together.
It was almost midnight and the whole village was asleep. Taking advantage of the quiet night, Xiao Ying put on dark clothes and quietly went out.
Revenge must be taken to the end, she must see Zhou Tianci die with her own eyes!
With her spiritual power circulating throughout her body, she quickly left Chenjia Village, her figure as light as a wild goose.
With her current strength, her speed was even faster than that of a horse-drawn carriage, so she reached the county town in less than an hour.
The city gate had been closed for a long time, and soldiers were patrolling back and forth on the city wall. Xiao Ying took out a piece of black cloth to cover his face, then chose a place with fewer people, took a deep breath, climbed up the city wall, and landed in the city at an extremely fast speed.
There was no one on the street, it was quiet and dark, only some wealthy families hung lanterns at their doors, adding a touch of light to the street.
She went straight to the yamen. The prison was usually located in the southwest corner of the yamen, and the one in Yun'an County was no exception.
So it didn't take her long to find her destination.
There was a jailer at the door, but he was lazy and fell asleep, which made it convenient for her.
Xiao Ying held the other person's head with one hand and slowly injected spiritual power into him, making the other person in a half-asleep and half-awake state. The jailer had no idea that he had been controlled.
"Is Zhou Tianci locked up in there?" she asked directly.
"Immortalized...and released again."
The jailer thought he was dreaming and said without any defense.
Xiao Ying's eyes became even colder. Although he had guessed this result a long time ago, he still couldn't hide his anger when he really knew it.
"Why?"
"The Zhou family is the master's money bag." The jailer unknowingly said what was in his heart, and he lowered his voice deliberately: "I heard that the master got 10,000 taels of silver this time... Tsk... He didn't even mention sharing some with us."
Xiao Ying unconsciously increased the strength of his hands, and only when he realized that the other party was about to wake up did he quickly calm down.
She was really shocked by Qian Qingrong's greed and shamelessness. How could she not understand?
The reason why the other party threw Zhou Tianci into jail was just for these ten thousand taels of silver, right?
He had no real intention of punishing the other party, and he never cared about her as the victim.
What kind of shameless and corrupt official is this? Having such a person as the county magistrate is truly a disaster for the people of Yun'an County.
Her usually calm and composed heart couldn't help but feel angry. This person had created countless unjust, false and wrong cases over the years, and he must have made a fortune.
"Where does the county magistrate live?" she asked again.
Since the other party is aiding and abetting the evil, she doesn't mind settling accounts together. If such a shameless corrupt official lives one more day, it will be disrespectful to the people of Yun'an County and even more so to her.
"It's in the third hall of the county government office." The jailer really answered every question.
Xiao Ying nodded, as long as she stayed in the county government office, she wouldn't have to waste any more time.
"Where does the Zhou family live?"
The jailer also told Xiao Ying the locations, and he remembered them all.
After asking a few more questions, she struck the man on the neck with a knife, causing him to pass out.
She decided to deal with the county magistrate Qian Qingrong first.
Morally speaking, such people are more harmful to the people.
In terms of actual distance, this place is closer...
It won’t be too late to deal with Zhou Tianci after dealing with Qian Qingrong.
