Chapter 138 Jinggang Maritime Customs Office
Chapter 138: Jinggang Maritime Customs Office (Three more updates, please subscribe)
The person who broke into the Wangchengdu Yamen from outside was a middle-aged man of medium build, wearing green armor and with a solemn face.
This person's cultivation had reached the early stage of the fifth realm, but he felt a little overwhelmed after only taking a dozen or so strikes from the Blood Knife Girl.
Both of them attacked extremely quickly, launching dozens of strikes in the air in an instant.
The two swords in the middle-aged Su Yi's hands had been pressed five feet in front of him by the Blood Knife Girl, so he could only passively defend.
His eyes were full of surprise!
This Blood Blade Princess was actually this strong? She was much stronger than when he saw her fighting with County Magistrate Li Changguo this afternoon.
She seemed to have been promoted to the late fourth realm. No wonder the leader of the Iron Killing Hall was skinned alive by this demon!
While struggling to resist, he shouted, "Master Lin, I am Zhang Zhili, the Deputy Censor of the Ministry of Justice, not a bad guy! Please stop your guardian demon immediately. I need to discuss something with you! We are colleagues, serving the court. Don't do this, don't do this!"
He was a deputy inspector, a fifth-rank official, far higher than Lin Rui, but because of the urgency, he even said the two words "your humble official".
Lin Rui smiled coldly upon hearing this and didn't bother to pay attention.
Is there a master lurking outside the Yamen in the Ministry of Justice? He's a dignified Assistant Provincial Supervisor, a master of the Fifth Realm!
This is even more hateful!
They clearly had the power to help Wang Chengdu repel the assassins from the Iron Killing Hall, yet they turned a blind eye to the attack on him and stood by and watched. What were these people thinking? What were they trying to do?
"All dragon riders, listen to my orders!"
Lin Rui put his hands behind his back and glared at the constables from the Criminal Division in the courtyard. "Disarm these people and put them, including Dou Ming, in jail. If they dare to resist, they will be treated as accomplices of the Heavenly Demon and executed without mercy!"
At this time, there were only 17 Royal Dragon Guards left in Wangchengdu, and some of them were injured.
However, after hearing the order, they surrounded the people from the Supreme Court without hesitation.
There was anger in the eyes of this group of people. They listened to what the chief secretary Wen Tai said, looked at Dou Ming's reaction, and saw the sudden appearance of the Censor Zhang Zhili. How could they not know what was going on?
When these people were staying here, they kept talking about their camaraderie. However, just now, their two brothers were killed by those men in black, but these people said nothing, hid in the prison, and watched them fight hard with those killers.
This matter has long aroused their dissatisfaction. Are these the colleagues and brothers they mentioned?
The constables looked confused and at a loss.
They felt guilty and instinctively realized that resisting was the worst option. Even running away was inappropriate and might be accused by the slanderous defense as absconding from the crime.
But they were unwilling to surrender and be captured by the people from the Imperial City Bureau.
But at this moment, Ji Xueying's body suddenly burst into a monstrous blood flame, and a majestic, fierce, and domineering sword intent spread out in all directions, covering an area of more than 60 feet around, causing all the constables to freeze in their tracks, their minds were temporarily suppressed, and they were unable to move for a while.
The fifth-rank Censor Zhang Zhili was hit hard by Ji Xueying's knife, and his body fell like a meteor on the street outside. In an instant, mud, dust and gravel flew everywhere.
In fact, when Ji Xueying slashed with the sword, Zhang Zhili's double sword defense had been completely scattered, and he could not defend against the sword at all, and was almost ripped open.
But at this critical moment, another figure suddenly appeared in the night sky.
The man was also wearing green armor, was less than 30 years old, and was holding a pair of iron maces. He had a handsome face and masculine temperament.
He rushed forward like a tiger and smashed towards the Blood Knife Ji with all his might, which gave Zhang Zhili a glimmer of hope and allowed him to catch Ji Xueying's knife at the last moment.
However, after a few mace attacks, the young man retreated on his own initiative, shouting loudly: "Master Lin, I am Wang Tiandong, the deputy inspector of the Ministry of Justice, and I am here to investigate a case of the 'Extraterritorial Demon Case'!
Please, Master Lin, tell your guardian demon to stop! What happened today was done wrong by our people. I, the Chief Justice, will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation!"
His strength was even greater than that of Zhang Zhili, the Assistant Censor. He withstood several attacks from Ji Xueying and actually managed to retreat. He stood shoulder to shoulder with the regrouped Zhang Zhili and fought hand in hand.
Lin Rui raised his head and glanced at Wang Tiandong, the deputy provincial judge, before flicking his sleeves and saying, "Ying'er, come back!"
At this time, all the constables were arrested.
The group of dragon riders took advantage of the brief gap when they were suppressed by the sword intent and knocked them to the ground in an instant, or knocked them unconscious directly.
These constables carried many Zhenyuan nails and iron wire ropes. Yulongzhi tied people up with iron wire ropes and nailed them with Zhenyuan nails, making them unable to move.
The two deputy provincial judges outside were more troublesome and could not be apprehended for the time being.
The key point is that he has something more important to do now and has no intention of arguing with these people from the Judicial and Censorate.
This is a rare opportunity, and he can fulfill Zhuang Mingyue's request.
"After you send these people to jail and lock them up, come out immediately. I have something else to tell you."
Lin Rui turned to look at the Chief Secretary Wen Tailai: "The businessman Yuan Ji is colluding with the extraterritorial demons and intends to assassinate this defense envoy. I need someone to find the county lieutenant and borrow 500 soldiers from him to search Yuan Ji's residence, his business and a number of ships. I wonder if Chief Secretary Wen dares to accept the order and go?" This mission is still quite dangerous, and there is a possibility of being attacked and killed by people from Tieshatang and Yuanji.
Lin Rui was unwilling to let Wang Sen take this risk.
Upon hearing this, Secretary Wen Tailai did not hesitate and said solemnly, "I will go there immediately!"
He knew that this was his last chance to redeem himself and restore his impression of the forest defense, so he moved with incredible swiftness.
Wen Tailai was light and nimble, and he reached the stable in a few leaps. He pulled out the fastest iron-scale horse from inside and galloped out of the gate.
Wang Sen was shocked at this time, wondering why Brother Rui was planning this?
However, if it is just to confiscate Yuanji's residence and merchant ships, it seems unnecessary to borrow so many soldiers. Brother Rui must have other intentions.
He then looked towards the prison: "Twelfth Brother, then we don't need to worry about these people?"
"Never mind, let them take care of themselves."
Lin Rui sneered: "If they have the guts, leave now!"
He was even happier when he left, which was exactly what he wanted.
He then remembered something: "Oh, that sword that person just used seems to be a water-type upper-level five-level sword. You can use it first, or you can exchange it for a more suitable one."
Unfortunately, his Blood Knife Girl was too ruthless and almost cut this fifth-level martial artist into pieces. None of his magic weapons were left behind, only this sword was intact. However, the killers did leave behind quite a few magic weapons, which could be exchanged for money.
These people are not like the group of poor demon cultivators that Zhu Lingshi supported in Yinyue County. They are all wealthy and their magic weapons are of decent quality.
Wang Sen smiled bitterly when he heard this, but nodded without hesitation.
This sword is not suitable for him. Wang Sen is ready to exchange it for a shield that fits him well to continue to strengthen his defense and restraining power.
At the same time, outside the Wangchengdu government office, Han Kedao and Li Li, who were hiding in the dark and peeking inside, exchanged a glance.
They both saw a hint of fear and luck in each other's eyes.
As expected, the people from the Ministry of Justice set up an ambush nearby, and even Wang Tiandong came. This person is a skilled fighter whose bloodline is close to the king level, and it is said that he is about to reach the king level.
Fortunately, they did not rush to rescue people, otherwise, once they rushed into the prison, they would be locked up and beaten by the other party, and no one would be able to escape.
At this time, in a house not far away, Yuan Ji woke up with severe pain in his head.
He had just cast a spell through the air and used illusion to control Ji Xueying's dream, but failed, and Ji Xueying killed his soul with a single blow.
He should have died immediately, but because of a rare treasure that Yuan Ji obtained in his early years, some of his soul fragments were reunited a quarter of an hour after his soul was destroyed.
"The situation is not good! Very bad!"
Yuan Ji took out a red pill bottle from his sleeve with a trembling hand, poured all the pills inside into his mouth, and then endured the severe pain while thinking.
If he were Lin Twelve, he would definitely use this as an excuse to cause trouble.
So his business and ships on the shore of Jinggang were in danger.
No! He might even link this assassination case to the extraterritorial demons, spreading the rumor endlessly and attacking all of his connections and influence.
The reason why they imitated the extraterritorial demons to commit crimes was because they were confident that they had absolute certainty, but now that the action has failed, they have given others an advantage.
Lin Twelve's blade is likely to point towards the 'Jinggang Maritime Customs'!
Ever since Wangcheng of the Imperial City Division was massacred in blood, the eunuchs in charge of the Jinggang Maritime Customs, under the instructions of King Han and him, have seized more than 200 merchant ships from several affiliated companies of the Shazhou Garrison Commander under the pretext of preventing demons!
The Shazhou garrison commander had appointed Lin Twelve to take charge of Wangchengdu precisely because of them! And now he had given Lin Twelve a ready-made excuse.
So he must rush back to Jinggang as soon as possible and return to Jinggang before Lin Twelve to respond!
After taking the pill, Yuan Ji gritted his teeth and struggled to stand up, stumbling towards Jinggang.
He must not ruin His Royal Highness the King of Han's important plan and must not allow those more than 200 merchant ships to leave the port!
