As more and more people came to pray, the common people knelt neatly on both sides of the road, sincerely hoping that the gods could help them.
Xu Jinhuan wanted to use the power of faith to fight against the false heavenly way, so he naturally would not miss this opportunity.
"I have received your prayers, and I will certainly not stand idly by."
The divine voice once again appeared in the ears of all the people in Changdong County.
"Mei Xinfei, do you admit your guilt?"
At this time, Mei Xinfei did not regard the other party as a real god. He was convinced that someone had used some tricks to disguise himself as a god and come down to earth.
So he smiled meaningfully and said, "Lady, why do you need to help those untouchables? I will pay you ten times the money they gave you.
If you can use this ability to help me, I can pay you a hundred times more."
Xu Jinhuan asked curiously, "A hundred times? Can you afford it?"
Mei Xinfei thought that it was his financial strength that impressed the other party, and immediately said excitedly: "I can afford it, I can afford it, it's just money, I have plenty of it in my house.
Can you let me go now? My knee hurts so badly."
Xu Jinhuan said calmly, "Just the pain in your knee? It seems my punishment is not strong enough."
As soon as Xu Jinhuan finished speaking, the people saw that Mei Xinfei, who had been kneeling, made a new move.
He first turned around to face the people around him, and then began to kowtow hard. The loud "bang bang bang" sound made the people around him touch their heads subconsciously.
"You, how could you go back on your word?" Mei Xinfei found an opportunity and questioned Xu Jinhuan loudly.
Xu Jinhuan chuckled and asked, "Have I ever promised you anything?"
Without waiting for Mei Xinfei to speak, Xu Jinhuan had already issued the punishment for him.
"Since you are so unrepentant and are trying to bribe the true God, then you should speak the truth in public."
After Xu Jinhuan finished speaking, he took advantage of the people's bodies to flick a small pill into Mei Xinfei's mouth.
This small pill is a truth pill given free of charge by the System King. The user will answer any question asked. Although it is only effective for one hour, it is enough for Mei Xinfei.
"Now I ask you a question, was Magistrate Shen murdered by you?"
Mei Xingfei subconsciously wanted to cover his mouth, but his hands did not listen to his brain at all, and they still hung at his sides, but his mouth opened at this time.
Then, he heard his own arrogant voice.
"Who else could it be if not me? He really gave Shen the face. He actually had the guts to threaten me and even said he would submit a report to the court, accusing me of raising the price and making a fortune from the country's misfortune.
If I was threatened by such a person, how could I survive in Changdong County in the future? How would the people in the Chamber of Commerce look at me? So, I decided to kill him to vent my anger.
For this purpose, I spent a lot of money and specially invited a famous poison master in the underworld to give Mr. Shen a special experience.
You know, most people don’t get this kind of treatment, and maybe Shen will have to thank me in the underworld.”
After saying these arrogant words, Mei Xinfei felt for the first time that his voice was so harsh. He now hated himself for not being a mute.
"It's really him?"
"I'm still asking the magistrate for orders!"
"You murderer, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you!"
An old woman over fifty years old rushed out with tears in her eyes after hearing what Mei Xinfei said. She ran to Mei Xinfei and slapped him hard.
But she seemed to be in poor health. After just a few slaps, she was a little out of breath.
She was trembling all over but her eyes were red as she looked at Mei Xinfei, shouting at the top of her voice: "Mei Xinfei, return my son's life to me!"
It turned out that this woman was the mother of the murdered County Magistrate Shen.
The people around him hurried to comfort Magistrate Shen's mother.
"Yes, I will. Auntie, just follow me and take a deep breath. Don't get too angry. You need to stay healthy and watch the person who killed Magistrate Shen be punished."
The man had just finished comforting the old woman when he turned around and started punching and kicking Mei Xinfei, swearing at him.
When the surrounding people saw someone taking action, they also joined the fight, punching and kicking each other, and beat Mei Xinfei until he cried for his parents.
At this time, other people appeared around Magistrate Shen's mother, and they also spoke to comfort her.
"Don't worry, Auntie. We will not stand idly by. Even if the court doesn't help us, I believe that the God of Kindness will not let this family off easily!"
In this way, the old woman slowly calmed down with the comfort of the people. She wiped the tears from her face with her sleeve and kept murmuring.
"My son was right. The people of Changdong County are all good people. It's a pity that he can't see it..."
When the people thought of the fair and strict young magistrate, tears welled up in their eyes and they sobbed continuously for a while.
Xu Jinhuan waited until the people had almost finished crying, then asked Mei Xinfei, who had a bruised face and nose.
"It seems that you are very unpopular. Then tell me about the bad things you have done."
Mei Xinfei felt something was wrong when he heard this. He was almost beaten to death by these people just because he mentioned the incident of killing Shen.
If he said a few more things, wouldn't he not see the sun tomorrow?
Mei Xinfei tried hard to control his body and wanted to keep his mouth shut, but no matter how hard he tried, that thick sausage mouth still opened in public.
"Immoral things? How can this be called immoral? They are all my merits and honors. Otherwise, how do you think I became the president of the Chamber of Commerce?
Let me think about what I should say. Let me start from the beginning of my life. At that time, I was also a poor boy, and I wanted to turn over the soil just to have a bite to eat.
I was so hungry that day that I went to the deep mountains where others dared not go, and I actually caught a pheasant, but unfortunately I also fell into the hunter's trap. "
At this point, a hint of memories and pride flashed in Mei Xinfei's eyes, and he continued.
"That hunter was so stupid that he easily believed the lies I made up. Not only did he give me food and drink, he also promised to marry his daughter to me. How could I marry the daughter of a hunter?
I killed the sleeping hunter in the middle of the night, set the house on fire, and left the mountains with the hunter's tanned furs and his daughter.
After leaving the mountain, I first sold the furs, and then sold the hunter's daughter to a brothel. It was with this money that I became rich. "
Mei Xinfei's words really dealt a heavy blow to ordinary people.
"Is this still a human being? He is so young and yet he can do such a cruel thing. No wonder he is so rich and heartless now!"
"This hunter's daughter is so pitiful. Her relatives were killed and she was sold to a brothel. If I were her, I would have wanted to eat Mei Xinfei."
