Zombies of time travel

Chapter 23 Debunking

"Come in." I said weakly to the outside of the room.

The door opened, but the person who came in was someone I couldn't think of --- Menghui!

Menghui walked into my room with some dishes in her hand, put the things on the table, and looked at me who was sitting on the bed at this time.

"Why did Xiaoqi go to bed so early?" Menghui walked to the bed and asked, but as soon as he finished speaking, he saw that my head was sweating profusely, "Why are you sweating profusely?"

When I saw that the person was coming from a dream, I hurriedly got up and said, "I just took a nap and had a nightmare."

Menghui frowned slightly, lost in thought...but immediately heard me say coldly: "What do you want me to do?"

"I came here to apologize to you." Menghui said indifferently.

"Apologize? Oh, what are you apologizing for?" I walked to the bed, wiped my forehead with a wet towel, and smiled.

"It's my fault tonight, I shouldn't lose my temper with you." Menghui said in a deep voice.

She still cares about me, doesn't she?My heart warmed slightly, and I said calmly, "Oh, I've forgotten about that, and you don't need to mention it."

"Seeing that you didn't eat much for dinner, I specially brought you something to eat. After eating, go to bed early. I'm going back to my room." Seeing that I didn't want to mention that, Menghui changed the subject.Turned back to the room...

I stared blankly at the food on the table, sat down slowly, picked up the chopsticks and ate, the taste was a bit sweet, and the corners of my mouth slightly curled up, this was the first time she cared about me.

The next day, after I woke up, I was in a good mood and would smile at everyone I saw, just because she cared about me last night.

All morning, we all discussed how to detoxify. "I heard that the Linglong Divine Orb on Ziling Mountain in the south can cure all poisons, but I wonder if it can get rid of this poison." Yun Xi said with folded arms.

"No, I don't think this method is feasible. Not to mention that Ziling Mountain is illusory, and no one has encountered it, but it will take three or four months to get to the south from here, which is too late." Qiu Heyu objected.

"I brought the Void Spirit Jade. I heard from my father that it can prevent all kinds of poisons and evils. I wonder if it works?" Siqing took out a small black and white jade pendant and said.

"No, the poison in them has already penetrated into the veins, and wearing this Void Spirit Jade can only avoid the poison from the outside world, but it cannot remove the toxin from the body." Qing Yang said hastily.

"What about medicine? I heard that there are many secret recipes handed down from the ancestors in the local area." Lin Ji said.

"No, some of the ancestral secret recipes are fake, and this is not an ordinary poison. Besides, I have searched all the prescriptions, but I don't know the prescription for this poison." Menghui said coldly.

"What should I do? Medication won't work. Is it going to kill me?" Qi Yichen said softly, but he didn't see a trace of panic, and immediately threw the topic back to me, "Brother Zhang, I saw that you haven't spoken all this time. Could it be you Have a good plan?"

I shook my head and continued: "However, I think you can seal your heart veins with your own internal force, and then slowly force out the toxin. Even if you can't detoxify, it can at least slow down your onset."

Everyone agreed, nodded and said: "Although this method is not the best strategy, it can be dealt with and is feasible."

After the meeting was over, Qi Yichen, Qiu Heyu, and Lin Ji went back to their rooms to practice their skills, and Menghui also followed Qi Yichen, although they were jealous, but helpless.

In the afternoon, Li Shaomin came back and said to me: "My lord, County Magistrate Jin has already taken action. Just now I saw County Magistrate Jin leave the government office and enter a brothel called Hongchenlou, and he hasn't come out for a long time."

"Oh? It seems that Mrs. Jin's death must have something to do with the Jin County Magistrate and Hongchen Building. Let's go and have a look." I laughed.

When we came to the gate of Hongchen Tower, Xu Rui and Zhu Chao joined us, and we all entered Hongchen Tower together.

The old bustard in the building saw me, and immediately ran to my side and said: "Oh, hey, these young masters are really fresh, each of them looks so handsome, I am going to be fascinated by you, my old lady."

"Where is County Magistrate Jin?" I frowned slightly.

"Yes, now the oiran Liuli is serving the magistrate." The old bustard smiled while holding a handkerchief.

"Go and tell Magistrate Jin, I'll take care of Liuli." I said lightly.

"Young master, this is not acceptable. Everyone knows that the county magistrate of Jin exclusively occupies Liuli. We dare not give Liuli to you. Otherwise, you see that there are many girls in our building. You should ask someone else." .

"No, I'll make Liuli today." I said firmly.

"My lord, I can't afford to mess with Jin County Magistrate." The old bustard looked bitter.

"Could it be... that we can afford it?" After finishing speaking, the old bustard looked down at the cold side of his neck and found a sword that had been unsheathed against his neck. His face turned pale with fright, and he knelt down, " Lord... Lord, please spare me!"

Seeing this situation, the girls exclaimed and stood by watching all this.

"I'll take care of Liuli," I said.

"Yes, yes, I will go up and give orders." The old bust got up in fright and ran upstairs.Zhu Chao also withdrew his sword...

But Jin Nuo in the room had no idea that his life would end today.

"My lord, when will you marry me back home? Didn't you say that after that woman dies, you will make me your wife~~" said a weak and beautiful woman lying in Jin Nuo's arms.

"Liu Li, I originally wanted to marry you back today, but on the way, a royal highness happened to be killed, and he found that woman dead. I'm afraid it won't work in a few days." Jin Nuo said.

"I don't~~ You must marry me soon." Liuli said coquettishly.

"Okay, okay, definitely." Jin Nuo said hastily.

At this moment, the old bustard knocked on the door and entered the room, walked to the bed and bowed his head cowardly, and said cowardly: "My lord... there is a young man outside who said... that he is going to wrap Liuli."

"What?!! Who is so bold, daring to snatch my lord's glass, is he impatient?" Jin Nuo was furious when he heard this.

"Hehe, County Magistrate Jin, we meet again." I smiled and walked into the room with everyone.

When Jin Nuo saw me, he fell off the bed in fright, crawled to my feet, knelt and kowtowed and said, "See His Royal Highness, Your Highness is thousands of years old."

Seeing so many men suddenly appearing in the room, Liuli exclaimed and wrapped the quilt around her body, but when she heard Jin Nuo call me His Highness, she immediately froze.

"Hehe, County Magistrate Jin is in a good mood. Mrs. Jin just died a few days ago, and you come to enjoy yourself in the brothel." I laughed.

"Your Highness, I know my mistake, I know my mistake, and I won't do it again in the future." Jin Nuo kowtowed desperately.

"Next time? Oh, I'm afraid there won't be a next time. Do you know that when His Highness just came over, I overheard your conversation by chance." I joked with my hands behind my back.

"Your Highness, please forgive me, Your Highness, please forgive me, this bitch Liuli asked me to do this, it's none of my business!!"

Liuli panicked when she heard this, and looked at Jin Nuo in astonishment, regardless of her disheveled clothes, hurriedly got off the bed and knelt down and said, "Your Highness Mingchao, I did not do this whole thing, it was all done by County Magistrate Jin, please Your Highness, please forgive me!"

"Magistrate Jin, you are the parent officer of Yu County, and you are the oldest in Yu County. Can a little girl from a brothel be able to order you?" I lowered my head and asked, "Besides, the emperor committed the same crime as the common people. , and you have to pay your life for this.”

"Your Highness, please forgive me. I know my mistake, please forgive me." Jin Nuo cried and kowtowed vigorously.

"This can't be done, I said I want to give your wife justice. Someone, take Jin Nuo to the prison and kill him at noon tomorrow!" I said decisively.

"Yes!" After hearing this, Xu Rui and Li Shaomin stepped forward and pulled Jin Nuo away.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, I am the imperial court official. The decision to kill the imperial court official should be decided by the emperor. You can't kill me." Jin Nuo held on to the last bit of hope and said to me.

"Oh? Really?" I took out the Golden Dragon Token and showed it to Jin Nuo, "The Emperor ordered me to be a third-rank inspector, dedicated to killing corrupt officials. Seeing the token is like seeing the Emperor, do you think I have the right to kill you? "

After Jin Nuo saw the token, his last hope was shattered, and he was taken away crying and shouting.

I turned my head to look at Liuli, who was kneeling on the ground and trembling, and said, "Liuli, the courtesan of Hongchenlou, was sentenced to ten years in prison for beguiling Jin Nuo to kill someone. Someone here, put Liuli in prison."

"Yes, Your Highness." After Zhu Chao finished speaking, he also took away the crying Liuli.

After everyone left, I cast a glance at the kneeling bustard, and went back to the inn by myself...
