Chapter 239 (4000) Lord Lu, you don’t want people from southern Xinjiang to cause trouble in the city, right?
When Luo Jun and others arrived at the Governor''s Office, they were told that Lord Lu was meeting with the fifth elders in southern Xinjiang.
"Fifth Elder?" Tie Jingang looked at Liu Si: "Who is it?"
"He is the second-ranked figure in Yunzhou City," Liu Si explained: "If the Great Witch is the emperor, this fifth elder is the minister of the regent."
"Is it easy to talk?" Luo Jun asked.
Liu Si shook his head: "I have never been in contact with him. Uncle Hou has dealt with him several times. He is a stereotyped old man who attaches great importance to the interests of the people in southern Xinjiang. He is not bad, but it is difficult to communicate."
"Just Mr. Hou has a relatively easy-going personality and can get along with him."
Luo Jun nodded: "But the great witch is gone, right?"
"When the Great Wizard was there, he decided." Liu Si said: "The dead Great Wizard was transferred three years ago. Before him, the number one figure in southern Xinjiang in Yunzhou City had been replaced several times, but this fifth elder has been in charge of Yunzhou for many years... Many people think that he is the real power figure of the people in southern Xinjiang!"
"Just say the final word!" Luo Jun nodded and said to the informant: "Official, please inform Lord Lu, just say that Bai Namen has urgent matters to ask for a visit."
Seeing that the police were hesitant, he even gave him a piece of silver, which was half the piece that had not been exchanged for copper plates before. When he saw the silver, the police immediately smiled and went in to report.
"There hasn''t been reception there. Will Lord Lu let us in?" Tie Jingang asked.
"If he really wants Bainamen to help, he will not refuse." Luo Jun was very confident: "Even if he doesn''t allow it, Iron Master, who can stop us when we break in?"
"Do you want to see the fifth elder?" Liu Si frowned: "Forget it... Lord Lu may not be able to touch him. If we go in, it will easily intensify the conflict..."
"Don''t worry." Luo Jun smiled slightly: "If Lord Lu wants to use our Baina Sect, he has to pay a price."
"If you want to ask for help, how can this attitude be possible!"
Sure enough, not long after, the messenger came to pay back, and Lord Lu invited them in.
"Just go in and watch my performance later, you can cooperate appropriately." Luo Jun whispered on the way. Although Tie Jingang and Liu Si didn''t know what he was selling, this kid had a clear idea along the way, and they really had no idea, so just listen to him first.
In the living room, there was Lord Lu wearing official uniforms on one side, and the skinny old man wearing southern Xinjiang clothes and living with crutches.
Unlike Luo Jun''s stereotype of ancient officials, Lord Lu is not a middle-aged and gentle middle-aged man with a three-beard and gentle beard. He looks only in his thirties, not tall and chubby, his eyes are squeezed by the flesh on his face, and he looks like he is always smirking. If it weren''t for the official uniform, no one would have thought that such a guy who looked harmless would be a magistrate of the court.
"Oh, Elder Five, I said that it always takes time to solve the case..." Lord Lu explained to the thin old man: "We have arrested all the suspects and are being questioned strictly..."
"Hmph!" The fifth elder picked up the crutch in his hand: "Why not that trouble? Leave the person to us and urge the heart to continue, no one can lie!"
"Oh, the fifth elder... I was hit by the heart-urging Gu, let alone the person cannot survive, and even if he dies and is buried, he will be ruined..." Lord Lu waved his hand and said, "Besides, you don''t want to kill innocent people indiscriminately. I suggest that there is still conclusive evidence to find out the real murderer who killed the great witch, so that he can comfort the old man''s spirit in heaven..."
As he spoke, Lord Lu noticed Liu Si and others, his eyes lit up, and then he said with a bitter face: "Oh, Liu Si, why are you so persistent? I have said that this matter has no need to be discussed..."
"Mr. Lu, my uncle is really wronged!" Liu Si asked, "This time it''s not just me. This is the iron uncle of our sect, and the outstanding disciples in the sect all came together to ask Uncle Hou for an explanation..."
"This... isn''t this embarrassing me..." As he said that, Lord Lu pointed to the thin old man beside him: "By the way, let me introduce you to you, this is the fifth elder of the Southern Xinjiang... These are the masters of Baina Sect..."
"Baina Sect?" The fifth elder narrowed his eyes: "That Hou Song is from your sect, right?"
Tie Jingang nodded: "That''s right, and Hou Song has been dealing with affairs in the sect last night and has never left. We can all testify, and it must have nothing to do with the death of the great witch..."
"If you say it doesn''t matter, it doesn''t matter?" The fifth elder snorted coldly: "The people in the Central Plains are the most cunning. They are all living in perjury. Who can prove the truth or falsehood? I can only trust my heart-pushing Gu!"
Lord Lu spread his hands at the Bainamen people: "You have seen it too. It''s not that I intentionally make things difficult for Hou Song. It''s really a big deal. Nanjiang also attaches great importance to it... If you really want to prove your innocence, you should take evidence that is convincing..."
Bainamen and others looked at each other and thought to themselves that Luo Jun had guessed correctly. Tie Jingang and Liu Si gave Luo Jun a wink, and it was time for you to perform.
Luo Jun looked at the thin old man in front of him, smiled slightly, and called out the dice of Tianji in his mind.
"Persuch the fifth elders let Hou Song go!"
Use intermediate points to correct!
Two pairs of dice rotated, and one pair finally stopped at 3 o''clock, and the other pair was 90 o''clock!
Good guy, either success or failure... Luo Jun was worried secretly and chose 90 points.
"Ding, the event is 99 points difficult, the final point is 90+15 points, the event is successful!"
With dice as the number, Luo Jun has a clear mind.
According to Lord Lu’s idea, if Hou Song is rescued, Bainamen must assist in solving the case and proving his innocence. But in Luo Jun''s eyes, the essence of this matter is still the victim, that is, whether the people in southern Xinjiang pursue the investigation. As long as they can convince the fifth elder, wouldn''t Uncle Hou be fine?
Of course, with the stubborn and rigidity of the fifth elder, it is harder for ordinary people to convince them than climb to the sky... But what if it is difficult, as long as the success rate is not zero, the dice of Heaven can turn the world around!
What does it mean to remove the firewood from the bottom of a cauldron?
"Fifth Elder, I just heard that you have a heart-destroying Gu that can verify the real murderer?" Luo Jun asked.
“没错!”五长老脸上流露出一丝骄傲:“那是我们南疆拷问敌人的毒蛊,服下之后,六个时辰之内,问什么都会交代实话,六个时辰之后,便会全身腐烂而死!”
"It''s really amazing!" Luo Jun gave his thumbs up: "Didn''t that prove his innocence by using the Heart-Destroying Gu on our uncle Hou?"
The fifth elder was slightly stunned: "If he used the Heart-Destroying Gu, he could admit that he didn''t do it himself, then I must believe in his innocence, but in that case, he would not live for six hours..."
"Okay, then use it!" Luo Jun nodded in agreement. "Ah?!" Everyone present showed black question marks, and even the fifth elder doubted whether he had heard it wrong.
"Have you heard it clearly?" The fifth elder said, "If you use the Heart-Destroying Gu, you will... in six hours..."
“会死嘛,我听明白了!”罗峻道:“为了证明我们百纳门的清白,我觉得值得一试!如果用了之后,侯松承认是他杀的人,那他死有余辜!”
"It is natural to kill someone to pay for his life. What''s more, the one who killed the witch in the southern border was killed. Not only did it fall into the crisis, it also destroyed the peace that the Central Plains and southern borders had maintained for decades. It''s a pity!"
The fifth elder swallowed, looked at the young man, and then looked at Tie Jingang and Liu Si behind him: "Is this kid''s word?"
The two of them didn''t react, and looked at Luo Jun in amazement...
"But!" Luo Jun''s words changed: "If it is proved that Uncle Hou is innocent after using it, how can I calculate it?"
"This..." The fifth elder was slightly stunned: "If we wrongly accused the good person, we will naturally give compensation..."
"Compensation?" Luo Jun raised his tone: "That''s human life, what should I take with me? Is human life compensated?"
“那好,我跟你算算,侯松是我们百纳门紫袍执事,掌管云州分部,虽然手下没多少人吧,但也是宗门中有实权的一方代表,地位权力不亚于一位长老。我们百纳门为了证明所谓的清白,损失了一位长老,怎么,南疆也要赔上一位长老吗?”
"The Fifth Elder will not plan to pay his life personally!"
"You!" The fifth elder stood up with his eyebrows and stood up with a crutch: "Where did the young boy come from? Can you represent Bainamen? There is no one in Bainamen?"
The fifth elder released an invisible momentum. Although Luo Jun did not take it seriously, considering his level of solidarity, he still pretended to be unable to bear it. He took two steps back and came behind Tie Jingang, and stabbed Uncle Tie Shi at the same time.
Tie Jingang understood it, stepped forward and released his momentum to withstand the pressure of the fifth elder.
The fifth elder glared at his old eyes and looked at Tie Jingang.
This is a master! Not under me!
"I can represent it!" Tie Jingang said, "I am the purple-robed deacon in the Baina Sect. His words are what I mean!"
Seeing that he couldn''t help but suppress his momentum, the fifth elder also restrained his momentum: "What do you mean? Is it my life?"
"This..." Tie Jingang didn''t know what Luo Jun meant, so he looked back at him.
"I''m also an example." Luo Jun walked up again: "But if Uncle Hou really died under the Heart-Destroying Gu, Baina Sect and Liangzi from the southern Xinjiang will be settled. Baina Sect can not enter the southern Xinjiang. Can people from the southern Xinjiang not come to the Central Plains? Can you leave with peace of mind when you pass Tongda Town?"
The fifth elder frowned.
"Of course, I have only a thousand people in Baina Sect, which is not as good as the 100,000 mountains in the southern Xinjiang, and there are more people in the land. But for so many years, Baina Sect has a wide connection with the martial arts world in the Central Plains and a good reputation. The elders in our sect died in the hands of the people in the southern Xinjiang. That is not the only one of Baina Sect, but it is a slap in the face of the entire Central Plains martial arts world. At that time, all sects will be hostile to the southern Xinjiang."
"Southern Xinjiang and the Central Plains have been peaceful for decades, and the trade between the two places is prosperous. How many people in southern Xinjiang make a living by this and even settle down in the Central Plains. If the hatred of the martial arts world in the Central Plains against the people in southern Xinjiang is provoked, will the five elders ignore the safety of their compatriots?"
The fifth elder looked at Luo Jun, hesitated for a few seconds, and sighed, "I don''t want to do anything, but the death of the great witch is of great importance and we must investigate it clearly."
"I understand the mood of the fifth elder." Luo Jun''s tone also eased: "But you have also dealt with our uncle Hou. Ask yourself, do you really believe that he will be the murderer who killed the great witch?"
"This..." Hou Song is a casual person, low-key person, and abides by laws and regulations. The previous disputes between Nanjiang and Bainamen were mediated on behalf of both sides. It was originally difficult to deal with the fifth elder''s temper, but after contacting him, he had a high opinion of Hou Song and thought he was a wise person.
Seeing the fifth elder hesitating, Luo Jun struck while the iron was hot: "To be honest, this iron uncle, and more than 50 people, including me, all set out from the sect half a month ago to celebrate their birthday. They just arrived in Yunzhou yesterday. A team of dozens of people, plus the carriages, Uncle Hou was busy to settle us, and he didn''t even have time to rest. How could he have time to assassinate the great witch?"
"That''s right!" Liu Si also said, "Uncle Hou has never left the sect after receiving the sect team yesterday. You can verify this matter! When the people entered the sect yesterday afternoon, many people saw that our sect was too busy with their own affairs..."
"We guarantee it with the reputation of the sect!" Tie Jingang took a step forward: "I was with him until midnight, and there was absolutely no chance of killing!"
The fifth elder was silent for a while, and finally sighed and looked at Lord Lu: "Mr. Lu, sorry, I really don''t believe that this was done by Hou Song. I can''t bear to wrongly accuse him, so let him go... But if the other suspects, if they have not found the real murderer at the time of the great witch''s funeral, they have to accept my heart-destroying Gu!"
"This..." Lord Lu looked embarrassed, and the fifth elder bowed: "The death of the great witch is not a trivial matter. If the real culprit cannot be caught, it will not be me, and the headquarters of the Southern Xinjiang will not give up. I have lived in Yunzhou City for many years and know that peace is hard-won than anyone else. I hope that the Lord must pay attention to it and say goodbye!"
After saying that, the fifth elder left with a cane.
As the fifth elder left, Luo Jun''s mind prompted the success of the incident.
"Ding, the incident was successful, the incident was 99 points difficult, the serious coefficient was seven times, and the experience was obtained 693 points."
After accepting this big experience, Luo Jun thought that this dice of Heaven is really useful. He didn''t think that his eloquence could impress the fifth elder. He believed that if the dice were not determined to follow, even the same set of rhetoric might not work.
"Oh... it''s awesome..." Lord Lu smiled and said, "Mr. Hou cleared his suspicion...I...I''m letting someone let him go..."
"Wait!" Luo Jun waved his hand: "Mr. Lu, I heard nothing wrong just now. The fifth elder said ''sorry'' to you, right?"
"Uh...is there?" Lord Lu seemed a little nervous.
"I heard it too!" Tie Jingang snorted coldly, and Liu Si on the side nodded.
"The Fifth Elder asked Uncle Hou to let Uncle Hou go, why should he say sorry to Lord Lu?" Luo Jun smiled and said, "No, it was your intention to detain Uncle Hou, right? Is the Fifth Elder entrusted by you to cooperate with the acting?"
"This... how is this possible?" Lord Lu''s fat face trembled slightly, he took out his handkerchief and wiped his sweat: "Hou Song and I have been in love for so many years, and we have no grudges or grudges..."
"Mr. Lu, you said this to the point." Luo Jun smiled and said, "You and Uncle Hou have been in love for so many years. If you want us to help, just say it. Isn''t it appropriate to do this?"
