Beginning with the Five Animals Fist to Become a Saint

Chapter 248 Where is justice under power! (Two in one)

Luoshui County.

As soon as Xu Zhengnan made a move, all the constables in the county government were dispatched.

Even the city guards were mobilized with a large number of troops.

As these people moved, the streets and places under the jurisdiction of the Tiger Gang were sealed off one after another.

Anyone who resisted was killed immediately.

Faced with the government troops that had poured out all their resources, the Tiger Gang was defeated in one blow and had no power to fight back.

Even the leader of the famous Tiger Gang was blocked by the City Guards, who used the Divine Crossbow to shoot thousands of arrows through his heart.

As for the Sihe Chamber of Commerce, it was surrounded by several captains of police, who made it impossible for anyone to get in or out.

As a result of this action, the city gate of Luoshui County was temporarily closed.

In this environment where heavy snow has blocked the roads, there are few people entering and leaving the city gates, and there is no resistance to closing the city gates.

Liu Mansion.

"Captain Xu, what do you mean?" Liu Tianzheng walked out of the courtyard. Looking at the Liu Mansion which was surrounded by a crowd of people, his face suddenly darkened.

"Today is the day when your Liu family in Luoshui County will be held accountable for the evil deeds they have done over the years." Having said that, Xu Zhengnan turned his head and looked at the people who were watching the show in the distance.

He continued, "Today, the Chief Constable will use the fate of your Liu family to tell the people of the whole city that justice may be late, but it will come one day!"

"it is good--"

"it is good--"

"it is good--"

"."

As soon as these words were spoken, shouts and cheers were heard from afar.

The people in the inner city are either rich or noble. Although they are somewhat afraid of big figures like Xu Zhengnan and the soldiers, they are much braver than ordinary people in the outer city.

"Xu-Zheng-Nan!" Liu Tianzheng stared at him intently: "What do you mean?"

Xu Zhengnan looked at the Liu clan leader in front of him with a faint smile on his face: "Isn't what I said clear enough?"

"You must be responsible for what you say!" Liu Tianzheng said.

"Responsible?" Xu Zhengnan sneered: "Of course I will be responsible."

As soon as he finished speaking, he threw the cloth he had just held in his hand towards Liu Tianzheng.

"Why did I say this today? Liu Tianzheng, please tell me for yourself!"

Liu Tianzheng caught the cloth thrown by Xu Zhengnan, looked at Xu Zhengnan deeply, and then opened it.

After a while.

Liu Tianzheng crumpled the cloth in his hand into a ball.

"Xu Zhengnan, don't forget that you have been taking the tribute money from my Liu family for so many years."

"That's right!" Xu Zhengnan raised his lips slightly, "But that's nothing but hypocrisy and snakes! I haven't used a penny of this money. I will hand over the money to the court after eradicating this cancer of yours."

"it is good!"

"very good!!"

Looking at the righteous Xu Zhengnan, Liu Tianzheng suddenly laughed out of anger and continued, "It seems that you, Xu Tianzheng, have really gone crazy. You are determined to be an enemy of my Liu family."

"You are wrong!" Xu Zhengnan said slowly, "I am not the only one who wants to be an enemy of your Liu family. It is you, the Liu family, who deserve to die."

Then Xu Zhengnan looked to the side and said, "Commander Jiang, don't you agree?"

After saying this last sentence, Liu Tianzheng's gaze immediately left Xu Zhengnan and fell on Jiang Ning.

"It's you!!" Liu Tianzheng's pupils condensed: "Jiang Ning!"

"Yes, it's me!" Jiang Ning said calmly.

Jiang Ning didn't care that Xu Zhengnan was shifting Liu Tianzheng's firepower towards himself.

Xu Zhengnan seems to be straightforward, but he is actually very tactful.

How could he be willing to absorb all the firepower of the Liu family by himself?

Once all the firepower is attracted, if an accident happens today, the Liu family will be saved by a big shot.

Or if some of the Liu family's spark escapes, then it will be Xu Zhengnan's turn to suffer in the future.

Now that he has pulled himself out to absorb some of the Liu family's hatred and anger, even if something unexpected happens, he will face much less trouble in the future.

Liu Tianzheng looked at Jiang Ning, took a deep breath, and suppressed the despair in his heart.

Jiang Ning's appearance made him feel far more desperate than Xu Zhengnan's actions.

He did not forget what kind of fate the Cao family, whose overall strength was once greater than that of the Liu family, has fallen into.

In two days, the remaining two hundred or so members of the Cao family would be executed.

The overall strength of the Liu family is now weaker than that of the Cao family.

The Cao family has fallen into such a situation, and if the Liu family were in their place, they would be even more powerless to resist.

"Why?" Liu Tianzheng looked at Jiang Ning with grief and anger, his eyes slightly red.

"Commander Jiang, why do you want to mess with my Liu family?" Liu Tianzheng spoke again.

Jiang Ning said: "Ask yourselves!"

Then, Jiang Ning spoke up: "Captain Xu, make your move! Kill anyone who resists!"

"Yes, Commander Jiang!" Xu Zhengnan responded immediately.

Immediately.

He waved his hand: "Follow me in, anyone who doesn't surrender will be killed!!"

"You dare?" Liu Tianzheng shouted.

"How dare you!" A sharp shout suddenly came from a distance.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a man in the team uniform rushing over quickly.

Behind him, there were several team members.

"It's Liu Zhaonan!" Xu Zhengnan's eyes focused.

Among the Liu family, the one he feared the most was Liu Zhaonan.

Liu Zhaonan is the leader of the younger generation of the Liu family, and the only one who has joined the Inspection Office and won the position of team leader.

In terms of official position, I am not as good as him.

But now the Inspectorate is the new elite in the court, with great power and high status.

Even if he had to, he didn't want to make enemies with people like Liu Zhaonan.

But
Xu Zhengnan glanced at Jiang Ning quietly, and his heart instantly calmed down.

Although the captain has a high status, how can he compare with the deputy commander?

Not to mention Jiang Ning’s current strength.

With that exaggerated strength, it won’t be long before he can rise to a high position in the Inspection Office.

Maybe in a few years, he will have to perform formal ceremony when he sees Jiang Ning again.

It was with this in mind that he made the choice he made today.

For a moment.

Liu Zhaonan landed in front of Liu Tianzheng.

"Father!" he said respectfully, then turned to look at Jiang Ning and Xu Zhengnan: "Commander Jiang, Chief Constable Xu, what do you mean by this?"

Xu Zhengnan immediately said, "Your Liu family has violated a total of 78 articles of Daxia law. The evidence for each of your crimes is irrefutable. We must arrest all of them and bring them back for trial one by one."

"Evidence? Where is the evidence?" Liu Zhaonan asked.

Hearing this, Xu Zhengnan pointed to the snow-stained cloth on the ground and said, "It's all there. Your father lost it. Look for yourself."

Hearing this, Liu Zhaonan glanced at Xu Zhengnan indifferently, then bent down to pick it up.

After just a moment's look, anger was evident in his eyes.

"What does this mean?"

"It says I killed Wang Sanzhu? When did I kill him? I bought his wife Zhang Xiuhui with my own money!"

"Buy it?" Xu Zhengnan sneered, "Luckily you still remember this matter. You paid the money, but it didn't go to him. Instead, his body was left exposed in a mass grave outside the city."

at this time.

Jiang Ning looked at the two of them and it looked like they were going to engage in a verbal battle.

He immediately said, "Captain Xu, no need to say more, just arrest him!"

"What Commander Jiang said makes sense. Arrest him and try him. He has violated the laws of Daxia, so he should be sentenced accordingly!" Xu Zhengnan responded immediately.

"Who dares?" Liu Zhaonan drew his sword halfway out of its sheath, glaring angrily, "I have already sent someone to notify Commander Yuan Hua, Commander Ye Qiu, and Palace Master Hong. They will be here to administer justice. Who dares to touch me without the Palace Master's order?"

"Commander Jiang, look." Upon hearing this, Xu Zhengnan looked at Jiang Ning hesitantly.

Liu Zhaonan's words made him very fearful.

According to the rules, if any staff member of the Inspection Office commits a crime, only the Inspection Office can make a judgment.

The county government has no qualifications to conduct trials.

This is also the reason why the Inspection Office has an extremely high status.

It is a self-contained system with independent law enforcement powers.

Other law enforcement departments must also cooperate without violating principles.

Not to mention, the inspectors also have the power to execute first and report later.

The accumulation of numerous privileges gives the staff of the Inspection Office an extremely high status.

So this is why Xu Zhengnan hesitated. Even though he also had evidence of Liu Zhaonan's crime, and according to the rules of Daxia law, Liu Zhaonan's crime was enough to be beheaded.

But now Liu Zhaonan is no longer an ordinary person, but a captain ranking ninth rank in the inspection palace.

This identity meant that even though he was the chief constable of the county government and an eighth-rank official, he could not be touched or punished.

Among all the people present, there is only one person who is truly qualified to touch Liu Zhaonan, and that is Jiang Ning, who is also an eighth-rank official and the deputy commander of the Inspection Office.

At this moment, Jiang Ning saw Xu Zhengnan's hesitant look at him.

Then he said, "Since you said Yuan Hua, Ye Qiu and Palace Master Hong are all coming, then I will wait for now!"

Hearing this, Liu Zhaonan felt relieved.

Not to mention Ye Qiu and Lord Hong, as long as Yuan Hua arrives, with Yuan Hua's support, he will be able to overcome this hurdle today.

In his opinion, Jiang Ning is not bad.

But so what?
Commander Yuan Hua is a martial arts prodigy who graduated from an academy.

Moreover, he is a genius who has already entered the seventh level of martial arts.

It comes from an academy in the capital city of Guangning Prefecture, so its background is extraordinary.

All students of the academy receive orthodox inheritance from the Martial Saint Mansion, and the martial arts techniques they practice are extraordinary.

People like them, who are at the same level of martial arts, can basically fight one against two, or even three at a time.

This is the power of orthodox inheritance.

In Liu Zhaonan's opinion, Yuan Hua is at the seventh level of martial arts.

Looking at the entire Luoshui County, apart from external warriors, there are outsiders such as Ye Qiu and the other four commanders, as well as Lord Hong and members of the Huangtian Sect.

Yuan Hua's strength can be ranked in the top three.

As long as Yuan Hua arrives, what does Jiang Ning have to fear given Yuan Hua's strength?
However, Liu Zhaonan didn't know it at the moment.

Yuan Hua has now fallen into a coma.

The water and fire energy of Jiangning exploded in Yuan Hua's body, causing him extremely serious internal injuries. He would have no chance of recovery without recuperation for three to five months.

In the fine snow.

Everyone has been waiting there.

As for other places in the city, the Black Tiger Gang was under the full force of the officers and soldiers, and they were leaderless, with the gang leader having already surrendered.

The Black Tiger Gang was wiped out within a few hours.

Those who are caught will be caught, and those who are killed will die.

The death rate is extremely high, and less than one in ten people survive and are caught.

Because someone among the officers and soldiers had already secretly given instructions.

As long as it complies with the rules, kill if possible.

Unless it is really against the rules and happens in public, we will arrest them instead.

As time goes by.

There was originally a fine snow in the sky, but it gradually turned into heavy snow.

It was getting dark.

After a while, the officers and soldiers began to light torches.

The bright firelight illuminated the area surrounding Liu's mansion.

Although the wait was long, no one made a fuss.

Because the person everyone present was waiting for was the most powerful person in Luoshui County. In front of Hong Minghu, even the county magistrate of Luoshui County was not enough.

"coming!"

Jiang Ning suddenly spoke.

"Is the Palace Master here?" Xu Zhengnan asked as he looked in the direction of the Inspection Palace.

"And Commander Ye Qiuye!"

As soon as Jiang Ning finished speaking, Xu Zhengnan's eyes fixed.

"Palace Master Hong and Commander Ye are here!" As he spoke, he glanced at Liu Zhaonan indifferently, with a hint of strangeness in his eyes.

Before, when Liu Zhaonan said that he sent people to invite those two big shots, he didn't take it seriously.

How could a big shot like Hong Minghu easily get involved in such a trivial matter? It's good enough that Ye Qiu came.

But now it seems that Liu Zhaonan is really capable, as he was able to invite such a great figure as Hong Minghu.

"Greetings, Lord!" Jiang Ning bowed.

"Commander Jiang, there's no need to be so formal!" Hong Minghu immediately smiled.

at this time.

Everyone also saluted towards Hong Minghu and Ye Qiu.

After a while.

Hong Minghu glanced around and at everyone.

"How is this going?"

"Sir, Commander Jiang is seeking revenge for personal gain." Liu Zhaonan immediately reported with a look of grief and indignation, but was interrupted by Hong Minghu with a wave of his hand.

"Captain Xu, you speak!" Hong Minghu said to Xu Zhengnan.

"Master, in the past few years, the Liu Mansion has committed numerous serious crimes, and we don't know how many lives they have taken! The stronghold of the God Worshipping Cult that the Master visited today is actually a stronghold of the Black Tiger Gang, and the Black Tiger Gang is the black glove of the Liu Mansion." Xu Zhengnan said.

"Oh? So, the Liu family is colluding with the God Worshipping Cult?" Hong Minghu said.

"Master, it's not like that!" Liu Zhaonan spoke first and was about to say something else.

"Shut up!" Ye Qiu glanced at Liu Zhaonan indifferently, his eyes full of oppression, which made Liu Zhaonan shut his mouth immediately.

at this time.

Xu Zhengnan glanced at Liu Zhaonan indifferently, then looked away.

Then he took out a booklet that he had prepared long ago.

"Master, please take a look here. This records the major and minor cases that the Liu Mansion has committed over the years."

"I have evidence ready for 50% of the cases."

Hearing this, Hong Minghu looked at Xu Zhengnan in surprise, then took the booklet from Xu Zhengnan's hand.

He glanced at it briefly and said, "Captain Xu has made thorough preparations."

As he spoke, Hong Minghu carefully flipped through the book page by page from beginning to end.

The place suddenly became silent.

But Liu Tianzheng's forehead was covered with sweat, and Liu Zhaonan's face also became very ugly.

It was not difficult for him to see from Ye Qiu and Hong Minghu's attitudes that the Lord of the Mansion was obviously biased towards Jiang Ning.

It takes less than a cup of tea.

Hong Minghu closed the book.

"If the evidence is true, arrest them! Captain Liu and the other members of the Liu family should also be arrested!"

"Yes, Lord!" Xu Zhengnan immediately bowed.

"Master, there is something wrong with Xu Zhengnan, don't trust him!" Liu Zhaonan shouted.

"Shut up!" Ye Qiu shouted softly, and his figure flashed and appeared next to Liu Zhaonan.

He lightly touched Liu Zhaonan with his finger, and he immediately fell to the ground limply like a deflated balloon.

And at this time.

Jiang Ning's gaze also suddenly focused.

"Practice both inside and outside, and condense the inner energy into reality!" He was immediately amazed.

Apart from himself, Ye Qiu was the first martial artist he had seen who cultivated both internal and external skills, and had reached the level of condensing his inner breath into reality.

Liu Zhaonan suddenly collapsed, which was enough to prove how mysterious the method used by Ye Qiu was.

See this.

Xu Zhengnan felt even more at ease.

It was obvious that both Ye Qiu and Hong Minghu were on his side.

The key is not difficult to guess, it is because of Jiang Ning.

Because he knew very well that he did not have the face to do so.

Subsequently.

Xu Zhengnan waved his hand: "Go in and arrest them. Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy!"

"You handle it!" Hong Minghu said lightly.

Then he turned to Jiang Ning and said, "After dealing with this matter, if Commander Jiang is free, why not come to Mingyue Tower for a gathering!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning immediately cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Lord of the Palace, for your hospitality. I will definitely attend the banquet later!"

When Hong Minghu heard this, a smile appeared on his face and he nodded.

the other side.

Liu Zhaonan lay weakly on the snow, and the snow gradually covered his body.

When he saw this scene, his eyes were filled with grief and anger.

"Under the strong, how can there be justice!!!"
