Xiaoyaoshanjun

Chapter 104 Freedom
Several officers approached Tian Buli carefully.

"You killed all these people?"

Sun Daojin looked at the corpse on the ground and still couldn't believe that this was all done by one person.

Tian Buli looks very young and doesn't look like an elderly martial arts master.

The most important thing is that he didn't carry any weapons. If he had a sword, it would be easier to believe him.

Tian Buli nodded and said, "That's right."

Sun Daojin saw the man’s head rolling more than ten meters away, and his head was deformed.

It was scary already, but now it's even scarier.

"Okay, I'll have someone call someone. Please follow me to the government office."

There was a murder in the city. The scholar and the people from the general's mansion were fighting and killing each other in the street. They killed everyone without leaving any mercy. Now the officials will definitely have to work overtime.

Tian Buli was quickly taken to the yamen, and the others also looked at the scene and gradually went downstairs and downstairs.

This explosive news soon spread to the nearby Flower Street which was still open for business.

An old woman ran into the room quickly and shouted to the group, "Gentlemen, is the friend you just left called Tian Buli?"

Sha Yi smiled and said, "Yeah, didn't he pay the bill?"

The old woman quickly raised the brocade in her hand and waved, "You guys hurry up and leave. I don't want to do business with you anymore. That Mr. Tian killed several military leaders in the street. You guys hurry up and leave. I can't afford it!"

Fu Shuhong and others who were drinking and listening to music quickly sobered up.

"Murder? That guy is not that kind of person." Fu Shuhong found it incomprehensible. Tian Buli did not look like that kind of person at all.

Sha Yi and a few others felt the same way.

"That boy is cheerful all day long and good at talking. Although he looks a bit strong for rough work, he doesn't look like someone who would fight."

"It's hard to say. I heard that he accidentally killed someone before and was on the run for a while. Later, Hu Jieyuan helped to settle the matter."

Soon someone helped to recall some things about Tian Buli.

The old woman urged, "Hurry up and leave, or else the government officials and the military officers will come to question me, and I won't be able to do business anymore. Then they will inevitably arrest you and take you to the government office for questioning, because you are from the general's mansion!"

The madam didn't want to cause trouble, nor did she want to see the police. Just a few words scared the inexperienced scholar so much that he lost his spirit.

Sha Yi quickly said, "It's getting late. Let's go back today and ask about the situation tomorrow."

"Okay!" Several people quickly stood up and said goodbye.

When Fu Shuhong and Sha Yi were returning, they passed the street where the accident happened and saw soldiers blocking the road.

However, due to limited manpower and conditions, people passing by here can still see the bodies that have not been cleaned up in time.

The most terrifying thing is, of course, the headless corpse.

Seeing this, the two did not dare to stay any longer and quickly went home.

Tian Buli followed him to the yamen and waited for interrogation by the officials in a special room.

With nothing to do, he sat cross-legged to meditate and recover the strength and internal energy he had just used up.

I sat there all night, and no one came to question me until the next morning.

The city's powerful officials soon knew about this matter.

Miao Shike, the prefect of Qitian Prefecture, sent people to ask for the Taoist's opinion early in the morning, then went to see the general, and then went to the palace.

"Your Majesty, the dead people all had tokens from the General's Mansion on them. They were all the general's confidants. The murderer, Tian Buli, is no ordinary person. He is this year's scholar and a disciple of Taoist Master Yun, the head of Liuyun Peak. What should we do?"

This time, eight people died in the street, including military officers with official positions. The fight between scholars and military officers in the street would inevitably alarm the emperor.

Because of this, the old prince doesn't want to get involved in this matter.

"Just report it truthfully." The old prince waved his hand. "I am willing to see you, not to ask you to favor anyone. Just don't mention the relationship between this person and the princess when you report it. It has nothing to do with this case."

Miao Shike quickly understood what to do.

"Yes, the person who guaranteed this person's exam was an old scholar, who had a close relationship with the Hu family and was also a Taoist. Last time, he had a quarrel with someone from the General's Mansion on the street. This time, when he was returning from the brothel, he happened to run into them and they had a fight."

The old prince nodded and said, "Just report truthfully. His Majesty will make the decision on this matter." "Yes!" Miao Shike was relieved.

Interrogation, no need.

This matter was very clear from the beginning. Both sides had nothing better to do and wanted to fight. Those who learned martial arts acted on impulse.

No one expected that, instead of deciding life or death last time, this time it was decided directly.

If one or two of them died, the general would definitely avenge his men, and would probably gather a hundred of his men to capture Tian Buli, who would not dare to resist.

Eight people went to besiege and were wiped out immediately. How many people should be assigned to capture them next?

Hundred people?

Don't look down on the brains of those civil and military officials!
At least a thousand people are involved!

After Tian Buli killed eight people directly in the street, the general had to mobilize at least a thousand people to capture this man. If there were fewer people, he would have to use powerful crossbows, armor and other equipment, and some priests would have to take action.

Now that the matter has come to light, no matter the generals or the princes, no one wants to get involved and they are just waiting for the court to send people to investigate, interrogate and make a judgment.

At times like this, anyone who wastes their strength will only bring trouble upon themselves.

All major cases in various places had to be decided by the emperor, and this matter was certainly a major case.

Half a month later, the Holy Emperor, who was required to sign the death penalty case, quickly wrote the verdict.

【Not guilty, release】

***
"Second father!"

Tian Buli was meditating and resting when he suddenly heard the sound of a dog.

Not long after, Gou'er, Gao Jingxian and Gao Fengge came in together.

Tian Buli stood up and looked at the people he hadn't seen for almost twenty days.

"It looks like everything is alright."

Tian Buli faced everyone with a smile.

Gao Jingxian smiled and said, "I've already said it's not a big deal. You're a scholar, and the dead were all warriors. And they were all drunk on the street, so you're definitely innocent."

Eight soldiers and a scholar were fighting in the city. Any normal person could guess who was the initiator.

The Tianyue Dynasty was a dynasty that valued culture over military power. Eight warriors and one scholar fought in the street and all died. Even warriors did not want to stand up for such a useless person.

Of course, the most important thing is that Tian Buli is not an ordinary literati, but a cultivator, with the immortal gate of Yanxia Mountain behind him.

The dog looked curiously at the place where Tian Buli had lived during this period, especially the steamed buns and stews on the table.

"Second father, why don't you eat?"

During this period, Tian Buli did not drink a drop of water and did not eat a grain of rice.

Long periods of meditation and cultivation, coupled with the special cell treatment that is quieter than an examination room, allow Tian Buli to concentrate more on his practice.

Tian Buli smiled and said, "After a fight, my breathing is smooth, so it's no problem not eating a meal for half a month."

At this time, the prison boss came over with a bunch of keys and said, "I'll open the door."

Tian Buli reached out and pulled the iron chain that locked the door.

Soon the chain made a breaking sound and was pulled to the ground.

Tian Buli pushed the door open and said, "Let's go. When I learn how to walk through walls, I won't have to be so violent."

The jailer was frightened, but secretly thankful that he had not provoked this strong man during this period.

Tian Buli quickly walked out of the cell with the child.

The world outside is sunny and peaceful.

The sunny summer has arrived again, and Tian Buli breathes in the scent of freedom.

There is no need to thank anyone for their kindness.

Freedom is in your hands, at your feet, and in your heart!
