Last night, in a remote grove, he and Su Bi interrogated the killer, asking him why he wanted to kill Mr. Zhang.
Who sent him to kill Mr. Zhang?
The killer didn't say anything at first, and even closed his eyes, looking like he was letting you do whatever you want.
Lin Tiancheng punched him twice, knocking out six of his teeth, and the killer's mouth was full of blood.
"Will you confess or not? If not, I will continue to smash your teeth. Not a single one will be left for you.
Even if you survive, you can only live on porridge, and it has to be boiled porridge. You can't eat any other food."
The killer still refused to confess.
Lin Tiancheng drew out his sword and poked the killer's crotch with the tip of the sword, and the killer's pants were pulled open.
Lying on the ground with his vital parts exposed, the killer lost his composure and cursed with his legs bent:
"A gentleman can be killed but not humiliated. Are you still a gentleman if you do this?"
"I am not a gentleman, I am an old Taoist."
Lin Tiancheng finished speaking and poked the tip of his sword between the killer’s legs:
"I'm going to ask you one more time, just one more time. If you don't tell me, I'm going to cut off your balls.
You can't get married and have children. Tell me, who sent you to kill Mr. Zhang?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the cold tip of the sword was placed on the part he was going to cut, cold as ice.
The killer was horrified: "I'll tell you, it was the Minister of the Central Secretariat Ji Lin who sent me here."
"Why did he want to kill Mr. Zhang? And why did he blame it on Xiao Nian Nian?"
The killer wailed, "I was just following orders to kill people. As for why I killed people, the Minister of the Central Secretariat would never tell me.
I really don’t know.”
Su Bi looked at Lin Tiancheng: "He can't know why Ji Lin wanted to kill Zhang Yuanwai. Blame it on Xiao Niannian. I know the reason."
Su Bi had met King Xuan and witnessed the look in his eyes when he looked at Qin Nian.
He is so smart, so he can naturally figure it out.
“This matter involves Xiao Nian Nian, we have to keep a statement, maybe it will be useful in the future.
But what should I do without writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone? "
Su Bi chuckled: "Easy."
As soon as he finished speaking, he ran away into the distance at a very fast speed like a shooting star.
The killer felt cold between his legs and begged, “Master Dao, I’ve told you everything you want to know.
Can you cover my crotch for a moment? I'm not used to lying like this. It's too uncomfortable and too cold.
If you lie like this for an hour, even if you don’t get cut off, you will be frozen to death, and you will not be able to marry or have children.”
"As for you, think about how to survive, and don't even think about getting married and having children."
Lin Tiancheng laughed and looked down, "It's not spring, summer or autumn now. There are no big leaves. What can we use to cover it?"
The killer suggested: "Your robe is so long, just cut off a piece of the hem."
Lin Tiancheng stared with his narrow eyes: "Is my clean Taoist robe cut off to cover this tattered thing for you?"
After the killer reminded him, Lin Tiancheng thought of a solution.
With a flash of light, he cut off a piece of the killer's clothes and covered his legs with it, just enough to block it.
"How about it, is the Taoist merciful enough?"
The killer closed his eyes and said in his heart, if you are truly merciful then let me go, if you don’t let me go that is false mercy.
After a while, Su Bi came back with writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone, sneaked into the study of a rich man's house and stole a set.
This was a piece of cake for him.
Lin Tiancheng interrogated Su Qiqi, who took notes. After the killer finished writing, he signed, sealed his name and put his fingerprints on it.
Everything was done and the sky was bright.
Lin Tiancheng carried the killer to the county government office and threw him in the court.
The killer confessed to killing Mr. Zhang.
Wen Xinglan winked at him, wanting him to change his confession in court. The reason was simple: the Taoist priest had forced him to confess through torture.
He could not bear the torture and confessed under torture. As for jumping into the county government office, it was easier to find an excuse, just say that he wanted to steal something.
The killer understood what Wen Xinglan meant, but he did not change his confession in court. He knew better than anyone that even if he did so, his life would be in jeopardy.
So why bother?
Besides, this Taoist master is so skilled in martial arts that if I change my testimony in court and really anger him, he might kidnap me.
Wouldn't it be a great sin if he cut off the thing between my legs?
Stop struggling and accept your fate.
Wen Xinglan was almost angry to death, but he didn't dare to do it too obviously in front of so many people.
He ordered people to bring Qin Nian up and released him without charge.
Lin Tiancheng and Qin Nian walked out of the county government office together. As for the killer, his job was to lose his head.
How the county magistrate dealt with him was their business. Lin Tiancheng only cared about one thing, which was to rescue Xiao Nian Nian.
Qin Nian was very emotional: "Senior Lin, I don't need to thank you for your kindness, but I still want to say thank you.
Without your help, I would have been wrongly accused by them and it would have been difficult to get out.”
Lin Tiancheng chuckled proudly: "Xiao Niannian, stop saying these useless things. Let's go to your stew restaurant and treat me to a meal of caged chicken.
Oh, that taste is so unforgettable."
Not far from the county government office, Su Bi was standing there waiting. He was wearing a white shirt, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, looking indescribably elegant and free and easy.
Especially that face, under the warm winter sun, it is so handsome that people can't take their eyes off it.
"Xiao Nian."
He greeted with a faint smile. God was so good to this man that even his voice was so nice.
"Su Bi."
Qin Nian was very happy: "I'm sorry to bother you and Senior Lin to save me."
Su Bi still smiled faintly: "It's not a problem. I didn't do much. It was my uncle who did it."
Lin Tiancheng shook his head proudly and said, "Let's go, with the help of your uncle, go to Xiao Niannian's place to eat the stewed cage chicken.
I guarantee you’ll remember the taste after just one meal.”
Back at the stew restaurant, Mrs. Li was so happy that she cried, the Geng family was also very happy, and everyone was overjoyed.
Qin Nian asked hurriedly: "Are there any caged chickens left?"
Yao Hua said: "There is one left."
"Great, hurry up and stew it for Senior Lin."
At noon, a total of sixteen dishes were prepared. Instead of eating in the stew restaurant, the table was placed in Qin Nian and Li Pozi's room so that it was more convenient to talk.
Lin Tiancheng was rarely serious: "Xiao Niannian, I taught you the moves, how are you doing with them?"
Qin Nian said: "Practice hard every day."
Lin Tiancheng glanced at Su Bi, then at Qin Nian, and said:
"Xiao Niannian, you have good character, good understanding, and good upbringing. In a nutshell, everything is good.
My senior brother accepted Su Bi as his disciple. I was envious and wanted to surpass him.
Now, I want to take you as my apprentice, are you willing?"
"ah?"
Qin Nian stood up suddenly. She was stunned by the great joy. After she cried out "Ah", she stood there motionless.
It was so unexpected, so unexpected that she couldn't even blink.
"Oh, I just said I'd take you in as my apprentice and you're already so happy. You're such a loser."
Lin Tiancheng's eyes were full of smiles.
"I do. I very much do. Very much."
After saying that, Qin Nian knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to Lin Tiancheng: "Qin Nian greets Master."
