Liaozhai: I just want salted fish with invincible magical powers

Chapter 81 Two Devils
"You are Hu Qian?!"

Hu Qian slowly tore off the black mask, and said with a smile, "Master Lu, what's the point of masking again at this time?"

The man in black on the ground also took off his mask, and he was undoubtedly Master Lu, the official official.

"Hu Qian, I have no grievances with you, if you let me go, the 1 taels of silver will be yours!"

"Is there really no wrongdoing? Who wrote my name on the corpse?"

Master Lu was taken aback, and suddenly shot an arrow from his sleeve, Hu Qian dodged and dodged, and the sword light flashed, cutting off his hands.

At this moment, shouts came from the courtyard behind, and the courtyard was illuminated by lanterns. Immediately, two young servants rushed out of the courtyard gate, and they were shocked when they saw Hu Qian.

"Come here! The thief is here!"

Immediately, seven or eight servants with sticks rushed over and surrounded Hu Qian and the two of them. A man who looked like a gentleman behind saw him and immediately exclaimed: "Hu Qian?! Lu Limu?! How could it be you?"

Hu Qian said with a smile: "Master Yue, please invite Master Xu and all the yamen servants here, and say that you have caught the copper coin and silver demon."

Master Yue looked at Master Lu in surprise, although he couldn't believe it, he ordered someone to invite Xu Yuanfang and a group of yamen servants over immediately.

Although it was late at night, the state government office was still brightly lit. Seeing that Xu Yuanfang just sent someone to lock Mr. Lu in prison, Hu Qian couldn't help but said: "Uncle, it's better to lock it firmly. Someone may come to rob the prison at night."

Xu Yuanfang was taken aback for a moment, and before he could ask further, Hu Qian had already rushed home.

There was no one in the main room, and Shen Yuzhen and others followed Hu Qian's arrangement and went to the Zhao family.

Hu Qian quietly went over to have a look, and seeing that there was nothing wrong, he went to sleep on his own.

The night passed.

Early the next morning, Hu Qian went to the state government office.

In the second hall, when the yamen servants brought Mr. Lu here, Xu Yuanfang immediately shouted: "Officer Lu, for the sake of the fact that we were officials in the same dynasty, I advise you to recruit honestly so as not to suffer."

Lu Limu snorted, but kept silent.

Hu Qian originally wanted to use the magical power of nightmare prayer, but he had already lost one leg and two hands last night. If he used the magical power again, he might not be able to bear it and died immediately.

"Master Lu, it doesn't matter if you don't want to say it." Hu Qian cupped his hands to Master Yue in the hall and said, "Master Yue, what happened at your home last night?"

Master Yue's expression was not good, he stared at Master Lu and said: "Last night I was sleeping at home, and then I heard my concubine Huang yelling that there are thieves breaking in.

When I asked about the situation, I found that there was a strangle mark on her neck and her face was pale.

When the servants chased him out, they saw Lu Limu respectfully restrained. "

Lu Limu snorted, "What does this mean? The official was patrolling the market, and saw a man in black coming out of Mr. Yue's house, so he stepped forward to inquire.

Unexpectedly, he was seriously injured, and then found out that he was Hu Qian, and then Master Yue came out.

It can be seen from this that Hu Qian is the devil. "

Upon hearing this, Hu Tong shouted, "Nonsense! You still want to quibble when things get serious! Come on! Call me!"

Lu Limu said: "Even if torture is used, it is nothing more than a trick of torture. The lower officials will never be convinced!"

"you!"

Hu Qian waved his hand and said, "Master Lu, since you are on patrol, why are you wearing night clothes and covering your face?"

"Then why are you dressed like this?"

"My lord, please answer the students' questions first."

"The devil is so powerful, I have to be more cautious in order to protect myself, lest he see my face, why not?"

Xu Yuanfang and the others were startled, not knowing how to refute.

Lu Limu said: "If there is no evidence, then let me go. As for Hu Qian, I will sue the court and punish you for hurting others!"

Hu Qian smiled and said: "Master Lu is really a good planner, but you can hide it from others, but you can't hide it from others."

"Show me any evidence!"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the hall looked at Hu Qian anxiously.

Such a big commotion, if there is no conclusive evidence, then this matter will be a big deal.

If he was really sued to the capital, then one of these few people in the hall would count as one, and none of them would be able to escape.

Hu Qian calmly said: "Actually, there is no need for any evidence. You only need to let Lord Lu go home, and then send people to lie in ambush around. Within three days, someone will come to rescue you."

As he spoke, he faced Lu Limu and said, "My lord, I wonder if the student's judgment is correct?

In addition, Mr. Lu should know the methods of the students. If I show my supernatural powers, I'm afraid you will tell the matter immediately. "

Lu Li's face changed, and he was speechless in a daze.

Hu Qian said: "How about it? If you still don't say it, then I have no choice but to wait. You will not be the only one who dies."

Lu Limu hesitated for a while, and finally sighed: "That's right, I am the one who killed Ma Wu and He Yuanwai's concubine."

Xu Yuanfang and the others were taken aback.

"Are you really a coin demon?"

Lu Limu said: "I killed people, but I am not a money demon."

Hu Bu asked, "What does this mean?"

Hu Qian said: "The Copper Coin Silver Demon is not Mr. Lu, but should be his helper."

Xu Yuanfang said: "Help? I'm getting more and more confused."

Hu Qian said: "If my predictions are correct, Mr. Lu has always had a thorn in his side in Jinling, and he has long wanted to kill him!
It's just that he didn't dare to take the risk, so he made one person commit crimes in the south, making him known as the money devil.

After a few times, the words Jinling were left behind, making everyone think that the coin and silver demons were going to Jinling to commit crimes.

In this way, even if he kills someone later, as long as the scene is set up the same as the scene where the Copper Coin and Silver Demon committed the crime, then anyone will think it was done by the Copper Coin and Silver Demon, and will not suspect him. "

Xu Yuanfang and the others nodded repeatedly, "Could this helper be that Shui'er?"

Hu Qian said: "Not bad.

This Shui'er is loyal to Mr. Lu, with high martial arts skills and ruthless means, and in order to achieve his goal, he does not hesitate to sell his body.

Master Lu, is there anything wrong with this matter? "

Lu Limu looked calm and nodded, "It's not bad at all."

Hu Qian continued: "According to my speculation, Shui'er came to Jinling and hid in Chunfeng Building.

The two wanted to fight directly, but because the adults were able to solve cases like gods, and they were afraid of the students' supernatural powers, they first selected two targets to try.

If you can't do it, look for another opportunity.

It just so happened that when Shui'er was drinking with Ma Wu and He Yuanwai, she heard the two talking about their concubines, so she targeted the two concubines.

Afterwards, everyone really suspected the Copper Coin and Silver Demon. "

Xu Yuanfang and the others nodded repeatedly.

"However, when they were about to attack, they never thought that we would suspect Shui'er first, so Mr. Lu killed his concubine to prove his innocence."

Judge Li Daren said: "Even if we suspect Shui'er, he doesn't need to kill his concubine!"

Hu Qian said: "My lord is very right.

In order to get in touch with Shui'er, Master Lu had to go to Chunfeng Building to find her.

It just so happened that we suspected that Shui'er's target was the concubines of those customers who had had skin and flesh transactions with her.

For example, Ma Wu, for example, He Yuanwai, Master Lu is also one of them. "

"But even so, he doesn't need to do it, does he?"

"This is one of them.

My lords, after committing a crime in one place, the Copper Coin and Silver Demon will leave a message on the corpse, explaining where it will go next.

However, he left the word "Jinling" when he was in the south.

After killing Ma Wu's concubine, the word "Jinling" was left behind.

Even after killing He Yuanwai's concubine, the word "Jinling" was still used.

In the past, every time a person was killed, the devil had to be changed to a different place. Why did he stay in one place for so long? Isn't it easy to show flaws?
They have also been in contact with Shui'er, so why is Master Lu's concubine fine? "

Hu Butong said: "Because his thorn in the side is still there! His goal has not been achieved yet!"

Xu Yuanfang said: "That's right, so he killed his concubine to tell everyone that the money devil has not escaped, he is still in Jinling City, and will commit crimes."

Li Daren said: "He wants to continue to use the copper coins and silver demons to cover himself.

Otherwise, if the money and silver demons are gone, and if similar murders occur in the city, then everyone will inevitably suspect that someone else is imitating the crime. "

Xu Yuanfang looked at Lu Li and said, "Then, who is the thorn in your side?"

Hu Qian said: "Isn't what happened last night obvious enough?"

Everyone was taken aback for a moment, and then all looked at Mr. Yue in the hall.
