Chapter 18: The Evil Spirit is Executed, the Fairy's Ultimate Intention
“Bang, bang, bang!”
After a second of exhilarating fighting.
In the court, there were several more quails with their hands tied, waiting to be slaughtered.
"Fairy! I am innocent! You are a Taoist. You cannot be tortured into confessing!"
Mr. Zhou was indeed a seventh-rank warrior. Even with a cloth strip stuffed in his mouth, he still protested using ventriloquism!
However, Pei Jianxian only cared about fighting and not burying.
He turned around and continued to count the money and property that the county magistrate and others had "presented as filial tributes".
"Fairy, how about I take care of the Wang family's case next?"
Gu Zhinan felt that he still needed to ask for instructions from his leader symbolically.
"Just do your trial, don't bother me."
Fairy Pei raised her brows coldly, spread out her slender white jade hands, and began to absorb the pile of spiritual jades that had been counted into the Purple Mansion Secret Realm.
Gu Zhinan was overjoyed.
Compared to other disgusting bosses with distorted values in the game, this ultimate female boss before she turned evil is awesome! As long as the money is in place, she will really help you! He walked towards Bai Yingying, who was dumbfounded, and said, "Princess, you are of noble status, why don't you preside over the Wang family's case?"
"No, no, no."
Bai Yingying shook her head like a rattle: "I don't know how to do it. Your master is so powerful, let her do it."
After witnessing the methods of this female swordsman in white, she was just glad that she didn't fight with her yesterday!
"As you can see, my Master is busy."
Gu Zhinan naturally took Bai Yingying's soft and boneless little hand and came to the case above the court: "How about, Your Highness, I will interrogate you. If there is anything inappropriate, you can remind me, okay?"
"Oh, okay."
Bai Yingying nodded and looked at the trembling County Magistrate Chen Wendao and others: "Brother, I think we don't have any evidence. Isn't it too reckless to do this?"
"Believe me, Princess, none of the people in this audience are good people. I guarantee that they will confess on their own!"
Gu Zhinan spoke seriously and sat down on the official seat in the main hall.
"Yes! I believe you!"
Even though she still had thousands of doubts in her heart, Bai Yingying still nodded without resistance under the gaze of those warm and bright eyes.
Sometimes, some people and some things are decided at first sight! "Little brother, can I ask you something?"
"Princess, please."
"May I have your name?"
"Gu Zhinan."
"Ah." Upon hearing this name, Bai Yingying's beautiful eyes widened to the extreme, and she uttered a soft moan! He is the fourth son of the Gu family who is famous in the imperial capital and has the reputation of "once you meet Gu Si, you will be ruined for life"! ?
When he was on a tour in the East China Sea, my father once said that the Gu family was the only family in the world that could rule the court and save the empire, and he wanted me to sacrifice myself and marry into the Gu family. So he and I Fairy Bai's heartbeat quickened, her cheeks flushed, and under her golden skirt, her pair of white silk legs unconsciously rubbed. She didn't pay any attention to the infatuated eyes of the Ninth Princess next to her.
Gu Zhinan is now immersed in the novelty of COSing as the county magistrate.
He picked up the Wang family's complaint with one hand and held the gavel with the other, slamming it down:
"Bang!"
All the county clerks kneeling on the ground trembled with fear.
"Zhou Yuan! The old lady of the Wang family of the Southern City Divine Fist Sect has accused you of killing 36 members of her family. Do you admit your guilt?"
Gu Zhinan shouted loudly.
Bai Yingying, who was standing by, immediately understood and pulled out Zhou Yuan's strip of cloth.
"Sir! I am innocent! Slander! This is pure slander!"
Zhou Yuan said with a wronged look on his face: "The old woman from the Wang family is suffering from hysteria and is not in her right mind. This is known to everyone in the city. What she said! Don't take it seriously!"
Gu Zhinan sneered and said, "Then tell me, the Wang family held a family banquet that night. As the only descendant of the Wang family head, you were also present. Why were you the only one who survived after the Wang family was wiped out?"
"Also, your master's wife, Madam Wang, before she died, with her last breath, wrote in blood, "The one who destroyed my entire family is the evil disciple Zhou Yuan." How can you deny this?"
In the game, the clues about the Wang family murder case are very fragmentary.
The only most powerful physical evidence was the blood letter that Mrs. Wang stuffed into the floor when Zhou Yuan entered the room to finish off the victim.
However, due to the deliberate favoritism of the corrupt official Chen Wendao, it is impossible to conclude the case based solely on this blood letter.
Therefore, the player can only work hard to run around the map to collect a complete chain of evidence. In the meantime, he also has to help several witnesses complete small commissioned tasks and persuade them to testify in court. This side quest takes a whole day to complete and is simply disgusting.
And at this moment.
Gu Zhinan didn't intend to waste even a little time on this Le Se.
I have traveled to the real world and am here to block you offline with the final boss. What do you still care about procedural justice? Iron fist is justice!
"Master! Master! I remember now! This is what happened that day!"
Seeing the young master in the courtroom with a bad look on his face, Zhou Yuan said excitedly: "That day was my master's 50th birthday. I was sitting in the guest seats, preparing to go on stage to celebrate my master's birthday. I never thought that during the banquet, my master's wife...she actually used her beautiful legs to tease me under the table!"
"After a lot of hesitation, I finally went to the back hall with Master's wife!"
"Sir, you are handsome, and you must have the same troubles as me. Sometimes, when faced with the active temptation of beauties, it is really hard to resist! Even if she is my master's wife!"
Hear this.
Everyone in the audience, except the fairy in white who was meticulously collecting the money, looked at the eldest son of the Zhou family with curiosity.
When I saw this man, I found that he had three white eyes like a dead fish, a sunken nose, black skin, and was extremely ugly.
He is not even a hair better than the scholar on the stage! Gu Zhinan smiled and said, "Then, after you went to the back hall, did your mistress still flirtatiously invite you to drink sugar water?"
"Wow! Sir, you know all this? That's right!" Zhou Yuan nodded.
"Humph! You bastard who killed your master and ancestors! Not a single word of truth comes out of your mouth!"
Gu Zhinan said with a cold look in his eyes: "It seems that I have to increase your strength!"
After saying.
Instantly, he put on an elegant and easygoing smile and looked towards the tall and plump figure in white in the distance:
"Fairy, can you lend me your "Three Corpses Bone-Eroding Gu"?"
Fairy Pei glanced back: "Are you sure?"
"Sure!"
"Three Corpses Bone-Eroding Gu"
It is a seven-turn Gu species developed exclusively by the Yaotian Queen Pei Wanyu.
After the poisonous insects enter the body, they will travel along the blood vessels to the bones throughout the body, just like the three corpse gods stirring up trouble in the body, making the recipient's bones feel as if being pierced by millions of steel needles, causing unbearable pain and making life worse than death.
In the third stage of the final BOSS battle, once players are infected with this poison, even the most tanky Buddhist Vajra will be forced to surrender and kneel down instantly.
Before using it, Gu Zhinan kindly explained the efficacy to Mr. Zhou in front of him.
What he didn't expect was.
As soon as the Gu pot was placed in Zhou Yuan's arms, he was frightened by the squirming sound of the Gu worm and burst into tears, "I confess! I confess! I killed Master's entire family! I raped Master's wife as well! I'm a big villain! I'm so sorry for Master's family! Wuuuuu!"
Next.
The whole audience was silent.
The nephew of the governor, the eldest son of the Zhou family, confessed every detail of the killing that night and even his perverted mental journey.
The words "cruel and inhumane" are not enough to describe this man's evil.
Even the dog official Chen Wendao, who had a cloth strip stuffed in his mouth, cursed incoherently: "Beast!"
Gu Zhinan also shook his head and sighed, and considerately handed the handkerchief to Bai Yingying, who had red eyes beside him.
miserable.
The Wang family is really miserable for letting a wolf into their house.
In the game, even if the player pieces together all the clues, they cannot restore the details of such a brutal murder.
"What crime have you committed, you born?"
Gu Zhinan picked up the gavel on the case and smashed it over, hitting the dog's head! "Ah——"
Zhou Yuan was caught off guard and his nose bled. He cried out, "Sir! You are a scholar! You are going to be an official in the future! You can't resort to private punishment! Let County Magistrate Chen judge me!"
"Well said."
Gu Zhinan walked over and pulled the cloth out of Chen Wendao's mouth: "Sir, County Magistrate, please tell me, how should we sentence such a sinner?"
"this"
Chen Wendao gritted his teeth and said, "This case has an extremely bad impact. The family of Zhou Yuan, the criminal, is quite prestigious in this county. I suggest that the case be transferred to the state capital and let the governor personally try it!"
Zhou Yuan's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Great, great! This arrangement is very--"
The words haven't finished yet.
“Bang!”
A powerful blow hit him in the face with all his might, and blood immediately flowed from the corner of his mouth.
Gu Zhinan wiped the blood off his hands with his Qi and sneered, "Master Chen, do you really think I don't know that Zhou Yuan is the nephew of the governor of Yuezhou?"
After saying that, he bent his index finger and flicked out a sword energy accurately, cutting all the ropes of the surrounding yamen runners! "Damn, is my sword energy so accurate?"
"Oh, I'm the only disciple of Fairy Pei, the world's number one swordsman. That's fine."
Gu Zhinan stepped forward and looked down at the yamen runners: "Everyone, you have seen the methods of my fairy. This time we only want to interrogate the guilty. If you want to walk out of this court alive, please cooperate with us."
"No problem! We all listen to the Master and the Fairy!"
The surrounding yamen runners nodded one after another.
"Teach this bastard a lesson! I'll take responsibility if he dies!"
"yes!"
All the yamen runners were born into common people families, and they had long been dissatisfied with the county magistrate who squeezed all the money from the people but only enjoyed himself.
They immediately rushed forward, punching and kicking him! "My Lord! I know! Zhou Yuan is guilty of a heinous crime! He should be sentenced to death! He should be exiled to the frontier!" Chen Wendao cried as he was beaten black and blue.
"Hit again!"
There was another crackling sound.
"No! Sir! My mind suddenly brightened up! According to Daxia's laws, if this villain Zhou Yuan is not sentenced to immediate execution, it will not be enough to appease the public anger!"
"Hit again!"
“Crackle—”
"Lingchi! This kind of birth! Must be Lingchi!" Chen Wendao almost screamed.
"Hit him harder!"
"Ah? Still fighting?"
Chen Wendao had been beaten beyond recognition and covered in blood. Seeing that the yamen runners were about to surround him again, he burst into tears: "Sir! I understand! I will judge according to your words! The right to interpret the laws of Daxia is with me!"
Gu Zhinan: √
He then supervised Chen Wendao to write a verdict that Zhou Yuan should be immediately executed by slicing, and within two days, all of the Zhou family's property should be confiscated, half of which should be compensated to Old Lady Wang, and the other half should be distributed to the widows, widowers, and orphans in the city.
Gu Zhinan asked Bai Yingying to reveal her identity as an imperial princess and personally handed the verdict to the chief clerk.
Finally, Zhou Yuan signed the contract personally.
This can ensure that the judgment is executed.
Gu Zhinan was filled with emotion.
Isn't this ten thousand times easier than the game? He looked into the corner.
The female sword fairy in white had already confiscated all the rare treasures that the dog official had privately collected according to law.
"Fairy, do you think my approach is appropriate? In this way, we can at least comfort the wronged souls of the Wang family and that old lady Wang."
Gu Zhinan walked over with a smile.
"Oh, that's good."
Pei Jianxian raised her eyebrows slightly.
Although her tone was neither salty nor bland, Gu Zhinan still noticed that the corners of her lips rose slightly.
Whether it was the joy over the wealth or the affirmation of the evildoer being brought to justice, at least it showed that the female boss was very satisfied!
Seeing that everything was settled, the county magistrate Chen Wendao crawled over and said with a smile: "Sir! Since the case has been solved and successfully concluded, shouldn't you release me as well?"
"Master Chen, look at you, you are anxious again."
Gu Zhinan chuckled and said, "The Wang family's case is closed, but the case of the demon disaster in Black Tiger Mountain is not over yet!"
"ah?"
Chen Wendao's pupils shrank, and his heart was about to jump out! He finally understood! The scholar with extraordinary appearance, the fairy in white, and the nine princesses in front of him, all three of them came prepared!
Zhou Yuan’s case was just a side issue!
What they really want to check is...
"Take a good look at me. Do you know me?"
Gu Zhinan squatted down and looked closely at the Qingtian County Magistrate, whose face was covered in bruises.
"If I hadn't known you, I really wouldn't have known you."
Chen Wendao shook his head blankly.
"Do you know this?"
Gu Zhinan took out the jade flute from his arms again.
This time, Chen Wendao's face turned completely pale, and he fell to the ground with his buttocks! "This is the Baidi Yumo Flute of the Gu family's direct lineage!"
"Sir, are you the second son of the Gu family? Or the eldest son?"
"Guess again."
"Could it be the Third Master Gu who died young or the Fourth Master Gu who just died in the Southwest Monster Tide?"
Looking at the young man with a cold gaze in front of him, Chen Wendao became more and more frightened, and his heart was about to break!
The Gu family arrived in Qingtian County so quickly!
The information from above is wrong!
"Actually, I don't know either. I was just teasing you."
Gu Zhinan put away the jade flute, then asked with a serious face, word by word:
"Listen, I will only ask you the following questions once. If you dare to say a word that is untrue, my Fairy Lady's sword will show no mercy!"
"Beyond you and the Jinyang County Magistrate, which other important figures in the court have participated in your activities of controlling demons and bringing disaster to the people?"
"Who on earth is colluding with the witch of the Hehuan Sect to hunt down the fourth master Gu?"
"explain!"
"I"
Chen Wendao lowered his head and hesitated for a long time, then gritted his teeth and said, "Sir, can I only confess my own crimes?"
"No." Gu Zhinan shook his head coldly and placed a long sword on the other person's shoulder in an unfriendly manner.
"Why."
Feeling the chill on his neck, Chen Wendao sighed heavily, "I dare not hide anything from you, sir. I am of low status and know very little. The spiritual mine in Black Tiger Mountain is mine! I also control the tiger monster, and even the monster disasters in the city were created by me. These are all true! But the "Shadow Gu" that I use to control monsters is-"
The words were not yet finished.
Sniff! Suddenly, Chen Wendao's eyes turned white, and a strange and eerie black air rose from his back! In the black air, a hideous ghost face appeared!
"Fairy, save me!"
Gu Zhinan was shocked and stepped back immediately.
It's as if we have a telepathic connection.
The white-clothed figure that made people feel safe had crossed the void and stood in front of him! However, compared to the time when he saved Tiger King at Black Tiger Mountain, this time it seemed that the timing was a step too late! Bang! The huge ghost figure that suddenly appeared, holding a shadow sickle, chopped down with all his might! Chen Wendao's head and body were immediately separated, and blood was spilled all over the ground! The next moment! Bang! The black shadow was hit by the Xue Ji Immortal Sword and disappeared!
"It turns out that there is not only Shadow Gu, but also Word Spirit Gu."
"This man - I will find him and kill him!"
Seeing the other party beheading the witness in front of her, Fairy Pei sheathed her sword, and her beautiful and fair face showed an unprecedentedly complex expression! From surprise, solemnity, and killing, it turned into incomparable anger! That was the ultimate female boss of the Fairy universe, the future Yaotian Empress, the anger of the Sword Emperor that made the world tremble! Gu Zhinan immediately agreed: "I also have this idea!"
