Chapter 115: Raging Anger
A few fast horses, drizzling rain, the people who were killed were not saved, and the people around were in an uproar.

At this moment, a spring thunderbolt struck the flagpole on the parade ground, and light and fire burst out. The crowd exclaimed "Oh", and this thunderbolt also represented the beginning of the Waking of Insects.

The people on their horses got off. One of them knelt on the parade ground, holding the muddy and bloody head on the ground and crying loudly. Several people next to him also quickly got off their horses. Anger was clearly visible on their faces, and they walked towards Xia Lin with fierce looks.

But at this moment, Xia Lin was worried about being struck by lightning, so he ordered people to quickly put away the umbrella. He even hid under the eaves, gathered his sleeves and looked at the people in front of him. He felt secretly happy: "This is really the script of the hero in a cool novel. Even the plot of sparing the life of the victim has been triggered."

As for these people who came, he was not afraid at all. The Great Wei Law in his hand was right there. He was not panicked at all even if the king of heaven came. When these people came, he saw an old acquaintance in the crowd from a distance. Wasn't that Lord An who was fainted by him last time?

Of course, Xia Lin was not the only one who saw a familiar face. Lord An was also surprised when he saw Xia Lin standing there from a distance. Originally a pioneer in law enforcement, he couldn't help but slow down his pace, and in an instant he went from being at the front of the team to the back of the team.

Among the people in front of him were two of his colleagues from the same government office and two colleagues from the Ministry of Justice next door. They had never seen Lord An in such a state before. One of them even turned around to look at him and asked curiously, "Lord An, what's wrong?"

Lord An covered his stomach, his face suddenly changed, and he cried out, "I'm not used to the local climate. I'll go to the toilet first."

Seeing Lord An suddenly pooping more and more, the others didn't care. They just thought that he was just not used to the local climate. After all, Anren had always been a model of integrity, otherwise he wouldn't have to do such a hard job every time he went on a business trip...

But at this moment, Lord An's incorruptibility was ultimately mixed with some other emotions, which more or less verified the complexity of human nature.

The remaining few people came to Xia Lin, and the leader pointed his finger and said, "Do you admit your guilt?!"

Xia Lin tilted his head and unfolded the Great Wei Law, which was twelve meters long. He threw the folded end into the other party's hand and said, "Please enlighten me, sir. What crime have I committed?"

At this moment, the people around the parade ground were reluctant to leave even in the rain. This scene was much more exciting than the scenes in the brothels. The strong visual impact and the confrontation between good and evil made the people present excited.

At this moment, the wind was strong and the rain was heavy, but the surroundings were completely silent. Everyone tried hard to hear the conversation between the people, for fear of missing out on even the slightest detail.

The leading official of the Ministry of Justice was holding the Great Wei Law with a livid face. This thing was like a hot potato, neither holding it nor throwing it away. Just as he was about to speak, Xia Lin took the lead.

"Sir, you must want to say that I am lawless and knowingly breaking the law, but I want to say that every word and every action of mine is in accordance with the laws of the Wei Dynasty. The laws of the Wei Dynasty are as clear as the sun. You and I both know that we should punish evil and promote good. A man with civility but no martial arts cannot intimidate his subordinates. A man with martial arts but no civility will be afraid of the people but not close to them. When civility and martial arts are both practiced, prestige and virtue are established; when prestige and virtue are established, the people will be close to them and obey them. It seems that the discussion of the emperor's way is also the discussion of the official way. Paying debts and killing people to pay for their lives is the way of heaven. Supporting the justice of the law and safeguarding the righteousness of the country is the way of earth. Making the people fear the law, the officials fear the law, and the world fear the law is the way of man. The three ways are combined into one, which is the kingly way. How can you have such an overbearing behavior? It can be said to be the opposite of the heaven. You can arrest me or kill me today, but if something really happens to me today, you will have to kneel in the Golden Palace in a few days to accept your death and thank me."

Xia Lin spoke like a rap, fast and clear, loud and clear, and everyone who was closer to the training ground could hear it clearly. There were quite a few students present, and these words spread by word of mouth. After a short while, the whole audience stood up and applauded.

There were over ten thousand people, boundless and endless. There were already more than twenty thousand people gathered around the parade ground. At this moment, the whole audience stood up and cheered. The momentum was like a rainbow piercing the sun or a raging wave in Qiantang River. It really frightened the officials from the capital who were present, and their faces changed several times.

"My Lords, is there anything else you would like to say?"

They had a mission, so they naturally couldn't just come up and get accused of this, so the leader stood up and said, "After you indiscriminately killed loyal and meritorious officials, how come you say it's a matter of upholding the law and justice? If everyone in the world is like you, then..."

"Come on."

Xia Lin flicked his sleeves and interrupted the other party's spell: "You said that loyal and good people are meritorious. The Wei Dynasty has been around for three hundred years, and there are more than tens of millions of descendants of loyal and good people. Today you say that the descendants of loyal and good people should not be killed, and tomorrow he says that the families of meritorious officials are not easy to punish. That's good, but who will make decisions for the poor people? As soon as you said this, I knew that in your eyes, the people are just pigs and dogs, even worse than cattle and horses. Don't forget which living fathers are supporting you with your food, clothing, housing, transportation, food, clothing and other expenses. I am amused. I really don't know how you got into the Dali Temple with your level? The level of the Dali Temple is just like this, but it makes people laugh."

"He is from the Ministry of Justice... the Ministry of Justice..."

The official from the Dali Temple nearby hurriedly explained with a smile: "We in the Dali Temple have to wear green, and they have red..."

"Sorry." Xia Lin turned his head: "But what good can your Dali Temple be? It's ridiculous that you can parade around with such a bunch of people who can't tell right from wrong and confuse black and white. You revised the law, and you violated the law. It is you who should know that the law is inviolable, but you are the ones who harm the law the most. Don't blame me for my dirty words. In my opinion, you are rotten to the core. Think about your Han Fei, Shang Yang, Guan Zhong and Yue Yi. Are you worthy of your ancestors and the teachings of the Legalists?" The scholars around saw that this was not a debate among scholars, but a person who suppressed the whole scene with firepower. He took the righteousness and bombarded the opponent wildly, directly making the opponent's face bloody.

At this moment, some people couldn't help but sigh. They had heard before that Xia Daosheng was sharp-tongued and he even talked the official who had punished him to the point of vomiting blood and fainting in prison. At that time, some people doubted the truth of this matter, but now it seems... he is really not dead. This man is too vicious and mean.

At the same time, the person who was "scouted to death by Xia Lin", Lord An, was hiding behind the toilet in the training ground, with half of his head exposed and looking forward. He really didn't dare to go out, because he knew that he was too sensitive and could only blame others for what they said, but he couldn't stand what they said himself. It was really not worth it for him to go out and deliver food to Xia Daosheng.

"Okay, I've finished what I want to say."

Xia Lin took off his officer's hat and placed it on the table, then stretched out his hands: "Aren't you going to take me? Go ahead."

“No… please don’t… please be a little more cowardly.” Lord An grabbed the corner of his clothes tightly with both hands, and kept shouting in his heart: “If we really catch him, we will be in trouble… it will be bad!”

Now the whole situation is awkward. The people are unwilling to leave and the supervisors from the capital have no way out. In fact, Xia Lin has no intention of giving them a way out.

Now this scene is interesting. Xia Lin put his wrists together and walked towards the people who wanted to capture him, while those who wanted to capture him were retreating step by step.

On the parade ground, an elderly father was holding his son's head and crying. Under the shed, three heroes were fighting against Lu Bu but were defeated by Lu Bu.

If this scene and composition could be painted, it would be a world-famous painting, worth at least hundreds of millions in the future.

"Awesome..."

Old Zhang was also in the crowd at this time. He was soaked all over, but when he saw Xia Lin's performance, he couldn't help but mutter, "This little guy is getting more and more powerful. He can quote from classics and speak eloquently. It's really wonderful and exciting. If he said today, it can be compiled into a book and included in "A Spark Can Start a Prairie Fire Part 2".

Many of the students present were truly stirred by Xia Lin's words. No matter which academy they were from or whether they were independent practitioners, the natural passion of young people was truly activated at this moment.

They began to tap their feet spontaneously, and then started to sing songs. The scene was shocking.

Xia Lin took three steps forward again in this rhythm, but the other party still refused to accept. Finally, he simply waved his hand and lowered his voice: "I won't make it difficult for you. Just report the truth when you go back. Don't refuse to tell the truth because you are worried about your face. If you refuse to tell the truth, you will be in big trouble."

The officials in charge looked at each other, then bowed to Xia Lin at the same time, and then turned away with a grim face. The Minister of Rites who was holding his head was also gently persuaded to leave.

When these people were about to leave, Lord An came back jogging, holding his pants and holding his stomach. He cried out twice: "Ouch... I don't know if I ate something bad, I feel so uncomfortable."

He said what he wanted but no one paid any attention to him. In the eyes of the people, these people were just a joke, so ridiculous...

When they were leading their horses to report to the provincial government office, someone threw a rotten vegetable leaf at them, and then all kinds of filthy things rained down on them.

They came in a hurry, but ran away like a lost dog.

After reaching a safe place, the young official among them couldn't help crying out loud when he thought of the injustice he had suffered today.

"Alright, stop crying. Let's take a rest and then return to the capital. Then we can report the truth. Someone will help us to get revenge."
