Celestial Immortal

Chapter 21 Fierce Tigers Eat Children, Great Kindness and Righteousness

Xin'an County Ghosts and Gods Yamen, classroom.

"What's the matter with the three of you? You were sent to the countryside to investigate the wounding of monsters. You are so powerful that you even fought with the villagers? Are you handling cases like this?"

The Deputy Chief of the Department of Ghosts and Gods, Huang Mei, slapped the table angrily, pointed at the heads of the three people in front of him, and spit flying all over the place.

The three of them were Chu Chen, Zhang Xiucai and Huang Fugui.

"Ah~ How did you handle the case? How will our ghost and god department explain to County Magistrate Xu?"

The deputy governor, Huang Mei, walked back and forth, cursing as he walked, and he couldn't get angry.

Chu Chen and Zhang Xiucai bowed their heads in silence, turning a blind eye.

Don't look at Deputy Huang Mei's scolding on the surface, but his desire to defend is very obvious.

But Huang Fugui was quite unconvinced, and said back: "Uncle, we"

"Shut up! There is no uncle here, only the deputy in charge, boss!" Huang Mei sternly scolded.

Huang Fugui pursed his lips and corrected his address: "The deputy governor, the villagers took the initiative to attack us, we can't be beaten in vain, let alone ordinary people, unarmed and no threat, the group of militiamen and Xiangyong are different. The dragon and the tiger are angry, if we don't fight back, won't we be at a disadvantage?"

"Are you still right?"

When Huang Mei heard this, she became more and more annoyed, as if she wanted to teach Huang Fugui a lesson.

Chu Chen stopped him.

"Huang Duguan, calm down, calm down, I made the decision to fight back against the villagers. The situation is really urgent. The militiaman Xiangyong thought that the rich and noble killed the iron sword. If he wanted to attack us, we fought back. It was a legitimate defense. They internally refine the evil spirit of dragons and tigers, and they are also practitioners, not common people."

When Huang Mei saw that it was Chu Chen, the disciple of Daoist Xu Ping, he put down his raised hand and said displeasedly:

"Hmph! It's not just what you say! The county government said that our ghost and god department bullied and injured the people and murdered the officials. This crime is not a small one. Don't be confused by the three of you."

Murdering a court official is tantamount to rebellion.

Although Deng Tiejian was not an official appointed by the imperial court, he was also a serious official. The chief of one party, his benefactor was still a general in the army.

If one is bad, things will explode.

After a lesson, the anger in Huang Mei's heart was almost vented, and his thoughts gradually cleared up. He asked in a deep voice:

"Then what happened to Deng Tiejian? You really killed him?"

Asked about this, Chu Chen, Zhang Xiucai, and Huang Fugui all fell into memory, with strange expressions.

Zhang Xiucai looked innocent:
"You may not believe it. This is too bizarre. We chased and killed the tiger demon for a whole night last night. The tiger was seriously injured and fled. In desperation, we went back. What happened? When we returned to Guangyuan Township, we found that Deng Tiejian was dead, the wound on his body seemed to be done by us, and there were rich rags and blood on his body, Huang is in charge, do you think this is strange?"

Huang Mei Fuguan frowned.

"Could it be that the three of you got psychedelic? Did you kill Deng Tiejian as a tiger demon? If so, things will be troublesome. The yellow mud in your crotch is either shit or shit!"

"Mommy! How did this matter happen to you youngsters?"

After Huang Mei cursed and cursed, he completely calmed down, and his tone eased:
"Okay, I know the matter, we have to come forward, so you don't have to worry too much, just rest in the classroom with peace of mind."

There was a bang on the iron door, the iron lock was locked, and the footsteps walked away.

Chu Chen, Zhang Xiucai, and Huang Fugui looked at each other in blank dismay.

Huang Fugui patted his head foolishly.

"Brothers, Deng Tiejian was really killed by us?"

Zhang Xiucai sighed and looked depressed:
"I'm afraid it's almost inseparable. I felt the breath of the painting scroll spirit soldier on the wound of his corpse. That is the unique Danqing Baomo I developed, which cannot be bought elsewhere!"

"Ah~"

Huang Fugui seemed to hear a thunderbolt from the blue sky, and he was miserable: "Then what should we do now? Will we be fine?"

Zhang Xiucai was born in Confucianism and was quite familiar with the laws of Dachang. With a bitter face, he sighed:
"Murdering a court official is a serious crime. Even if it is proved to be an accidental injury, the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped. Not to mention other punishments, at least the ghosts and gods can't stay. The court will let us pack up and leave."

Huang Fugui wailed: "Ah, it's so serious! Then I'm miserable. I just left the village for a few days, and I went back in despair. I'm so ashamed."

"What are you doing? You can lose some face at most. I don't know if I can keep my reputation as a scholar. I hope County Magistrate Xu will see clearly and don't wrong good people. We are also killing demons for the people, so we can't let our hearts be chilled."

After speaking, Zhang Xiucai let out a long sigh, looking forward to it secretly.

Huang Fugui also sighed.

In the cell, there was a gloomy cloud.

Only Chu Chen's expression remained the same, as if he was an outsider.

"Brother Chu, why are you acting like nothing happened?"

Zhang Xiucai and Huang Fugui looked at each other, a little surprised.

If they are proved guilty of "manslaughtering court officials", even if their background is sky-high, they will not be able to escape unscathed, brother, how can you be so calm.

Chu Chen smiled and said:
"The one we chased and killed last night was undoubtedly a demon. There is no doubt about this."

Huang Fugui and Zhang Xiucai shook their heads together.

Looking around, the two had low voices.

"Brother Chu, it's useless not to admit it. The evidence is too obvious. We killed Deng Tiejian!"

Chu Chen nodded, agreeing with the two of them:
"Well, it's true that Deng Tiejian was killed by us!"

This time, it was Huang Fugui and Zhang Xiucai's turn to be confused.

What do you mean?
Huang Fugui's eyes lit up, he slapped his thigh, and said, "Brother Chu, are you saying that the tiger demon is Deng Tiejian, and Deng Tiejian is the tiger demon?"

"No, no, it's impossible!"

Zhang Xiucai shook his head again and again: "Tiger poison does not eat its son, how could he kill his own son? It doesn't make sense!"

After finishing speaking, Zhang Xiucai went on to say:
"Taking a step back, Deng Tiejian is a tiger demon. If he killed his son, he didn't have to report to our county ghosts and gods department. He made up lies. With his status and his son's bad deeds in the past, if he killed his son, he would kill him." Well, there’s no need to make a big fuss.”

"Think carefully, Brother Chu, your guess is full of loopholes, the magistrate of Xu County and the general of the Qingzhou Army will only be believed if their heads were kicked by a donkey."

After hearing Zhang Xiucai's analysis, Huang Fugui's joy disappeared without a trace.

"Xiu Cai is right. How could Deng Tiejian kill his own son? It's too bizarre."

The two shook their heads, losing interest for a while, and stopped talking.

Chu Chen smiled and didn't say much,
Things are really weird.

If it weren't for You Xinmiao, he wouldn't dare to make such a judgment.

When he guessed that Deng Tiejian was the black tiger demon, Xinmiao refreshed a spell.
