A seal of immortality

Chapter 233
Chen Qingfeng looked at a letter on the table, his brows were furrowed, and his face was full of disbelief.

A quarter of an hour later, he let out a long sigh, and shouted to the servant at the door: "Come on, please invite Li Xianwei to come to me."

The servant at the door responded, turned and left.

After a meal, a middle-aged man with an anxious face walked in quickly.

"My lord? But did someone come from above?" As soon as he entered the door, the middle-aged man couldn't wait to ask.

"I also hope that someone from above will be sent here soon, but unfortunately not, here is a letter, please take a look," Chen Qingfeng shook his head, handed the letter on the table to the middle-aged man, and then shouted out the door Said: "You don't need to serve here, you all step back."

Seeing this situation, a look of surprise flashed in the eyes of the middle-aged man. He took the letter and looked at it for a few times, his expression suddenly changed. After a while, he withdrew his gaze, and after a moment of uncertainty on his face, he asked:
"My lord, where did this letter come from? Where is the sender?"

"After lunch, I went back to the study and saw it. I don't know who left it. I questioned the servants in the mansion carefully. No one has entered or left the study. It should be left by an outsider. Who left this letter It doesn't matter, what matters is the content above, what do you think," said Chen Qingfeng at the end with a trace of solemnity on his face.

"Based on my humble position, it is likely that someone deliberately framed Li Dashan. How could Li Dashan be evil? He is a well-known benevolent person in this county. Even the county governor has heard of his good deeds. Qian paved bridges and roads, and built porridge sheds on the fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year to give porridge. I don’t know how many people have been saved. Last time the county government was renovated, he donated 300 taels! Say he is evil, let alone I don’t believe it. The people will not believe it."

"Well, that's what I thought at first, but what if everything in the letter is true? Think about it carefully, is there any strange behavior by Li Dashan, which is something that other people don't have?"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man raised his eyebrows, showing a look of reminiscence. After a quarter of an hour, he hesitated a little, and said, "Don't say it, my lord, I still think of a few things when you mention it like this." Doubtful."

"Suspicion? What doubt? Tell me quickly?" Chen Qingfeng's eyes lit up, and he urged.

"If I remember correctly, Li Dashan moved to this county five years ago. I heard that he is from Jeju, but I have been to Jeju, and Li Dashan's accent is not like that of Jeju people. This is one of them; Second, as soon as Li Dashan came to this county, the homes of Zhao Yuanwai and Master Zhu were stolen one after another, a large amount of gold and silver treasures disappeared, and a fire broke out in Master Qian's house, and everyone in the house was burned to death."

"Accent doesn't mean anything. Li Dashan is a businessman who travels around. It's okay to have a mixed accent. What does theft and fire have to do with Li Dashan?"

"It doesn't seem to be related, but before the theft and fire, Mr. Li Dashan visited the mansion of the three of them. Although there is no conclusive evidence, there is always something suspicious. Third, Mr. Li Dashan runs two restaurants, and three restaurants. He seldom went to his own shop to check the situation, and everything was handed over to a few managers, and he never dealt with other businessmen in the county; fourth, and this was the most suspicious point, that was Li Dashan's only daughter. "

"What's so strange about being a girl? Everyone in this county knows that Ms. Li has a strange disease and can't breathe. She will not leave the attic where she lives easily. She will only leave when she is out for medical treatment." Chen Qingfeng shook his head. Said indifferently.

"The problem is, wherever the father and daughter went, there were murders. Three years ago, they went to visit Dr. Zhou in Lin County. Dr. Zhou's family all died suddenly that night. Two years ago, they went to Qingfeng County Visiting Dr. Chen, many people disappeared in Qingfeng County. A year ago, they stayed in Baima Temple for more than half a month, and a large number of people disappeared in the villages near Baima Temple. A few months ago, they went to Qingyuan Temple to invite Qingyuan Layman went to see a doctor, Layman Qingyuan actually coveted Miss Li's beauty, set fire to murder, except for their father and daughter, everyone else died completely. In addition, over the past few years, more than a dozen people have disappeared from Li Dashan's mansion. Among the servants and maidservants, one of the servants was Wang Butou's brother-in-law. Wang Butou came to inquire. Li Dashan said that Wang Butou's wife and brother had stolen his money and fled. Wang Butou's wife and brother also saw him. However, he is an honest person, how could he do something like stealing money from the master's family!"

"Is there any evidence for what you said? If there is no evidence, it may be a coincidence," Chen Qingfeng asked with a frown.

"Coincidence? I'm afraid not. After Wang Butou's wife and brother disappeared, he called Li's maidservant to inquire. Someone recalled hearing his wife's brother's screams in the middle of the night. Because of this, Wang Butou made a big fuss." Due to the reputation of Li Dashan, it was finally settled at this time, but he told me in private that he would go to Li's mansion to search some other day. I thought he was speaking out of anger, but unexpectedly, almost He disappeared two days later, and his relatives and friends didn't know where he went. Afterwards, I sent two good men to disguise themselves and sneak into Li's mansion under the cover of night to investigate. Unexpectedly, the two of them also disappeared. Since then, I paid special attention to the affairs of Li Dashan, and only then did I know so many things about Li Dashan."

"Could it be that the two people you sent were Wang Hu and Li Bao?" Chen Qingfeng's expression changed, and he asked in a deep voice.

"Exactly, the two of them are well-known masters in the Jianghu, especially Li Bao, who is even better at lightness kung fu. Even if he loses, it shouldn't be a problem to escape, but I have never seen them again, most likely they were killed. Now, it seems that this Li Dashan is really evil, and doing good deeds is just a cover for his own evil deeds."

Chen Qingfeng frowned when he heard the words, and said worriedly: "Anyway, these are just your suspicions. We have no evidence, so we can't rush to arrest people. After all, Li Dashan's reputation is too great. If we rush to arrest him When the evil way is caught, I am afraid it will cause public anger."

County Lieutenant Li nodded, sighed, and said nothing.

"By the way, have any young children disappeared in the past two days, and how is the reaction of the people?" Chen Qingfeng seemed to have remembered something, and asked.

Hearing this, County Lieutenant Li smiled wryly, and said, "My lord, I'm about to report to you! Another child disappeared yesterday, or is it the prodigy Zhao you praised?"

"What? You mean Zhao Ming? Zhao Dayou's son Zhao Ming?" Chen Qingfeng's face changed slightly.

"Yes, it's Zhao Dayou's son. Now the couple are crying to death. Zhao Dayou's daughter-in-law even hanged herself. Fortunately, she was rescued in time. There is no serious problem, but because of this, many people The people packed their bags and left the county with their children, saying that they wanted to hide in the countryside, and a small half of the residents have already left the county. If it continues, more people will leave.”

"Oh, forget it, I'll write another letter, and have someone send it to the Lord Sheriff immediately. I hope the Lord Sheriff can send someone to deal with this matter. At worst, it would be better to send a team of officers and soldiers," Chen Qingfeng said. sighed.

"That's the only way to go. It's okay for the police in the county government to manage the law and order. It may not be the opponent of the evil way," Li Xianwei said with a wry smile.

"My lord, there are a few people outside who are said to be sent by the sheriff, do you see?" At this moment, a servant walked in quickly and said to Chen Qingfeng.

When Chen Qingfeng heard the words, his face brightened, and he said, "Please, invite them in quickly, if not, I will go to see them in person."

Soon, Chen Qingfeng saw the people sent by the county sheriff, three men and one woman. The leader was a middle-aged scholar in his 30s.

The three people behind the middle-aged scholar were dressed in different clothes, and their faces were full of pride.

"May I ask your Excellency, is there a letter from the Sheriff? Is there a letter from the Sheriff?" Chen Qingfeng stepped forward and asked the middle-aged scholar.

The middle-aged scholar nodded, took out a letter, and handed it to Chen Qingfeng.

Chen Qingfeng read the letter with ecstasy on his face, and said, "My lords, please come inside." After finishing speaking, he made a gesture of please.

The middle-aged scholar was also polite, and strode in, followed by the other three.

Seeing this situation, County Lieutenant Li looked a little displeased, but he didn't say anything.

Chen Qingfeng brought the four of them to the hall, and the middle-aged scholar unceremoniously sat down at the head.

Seeing this scene, Chen Qingfeng didn't have any displeasure on his face, because the letter from the county sheriff made it very clear that the identities of these men were unusual, so they must not be neglected, and everything was obeyed by the four of them.

"Okay, to make a long story short, I read the letter you wrote to Liu Junshou. You said there were monsters making trouble, is it true or not? Tell me the ins and outs of this matter carefully, and don't miss a single word," the middle-aged scholar ordered, with a very serious tone. Plain, it seems that in his opinion, this matter is just a trivial matter.

"That's what happened, and this matter started more than a month ago..." Chen Qingfeng didn't dare to neglect, and told the whole story in detail.

After listening to Chen Qingfeng's statement, the middle-aged scholar frowned and said, "Show me the letter you received."

After hearing this, County Lieutenant Li hurriedly handed over the letter.

"It seems that Li Dashan is probably an evil cultivator. You take us to his mansion and send people to surround his mansion. No matter what noise you hear, you are not allowed to come in. Except for the four of us, run from inside. Anyone who comes out will be shot and killed, do you understand?" The middle-aged scholar read the letter, pondered for a moment, and opened his mouth to order.

"Isn't that good! My lord? After all, many of the servant girls are innocent," Chen Qingfeng said hesitantly.

"Hmph, you don't care what I do. I can make my own judgment on whether I am innocent or not. If that letter doesn't make it clear, then I will show you something," the middle-aged scholar snorted softly, turning his palms over, A golden token the size of a palm, with a lifelike golden dragon engraved on the token, and a king character written on the reverse side.

Seeing this token, Chen Qingfeng and Li Xianwei's expressions changed, they knelt down hastily, and said in unison: "I pay my respects to the lord."

"Okay, let's all get up! Go down and make arrangements, I don't have so much time to waste with you," the middle-aged scholar urged, waving his hand.

"Yes, my lord," the two of them agreed, and retreated respectfully.

"Hey, Uncle Qi, if you didn't bring this token from the emperor, I'm afraid the county magistrate of the seventh rank might not listen to you," a fat young man said with a laugh.

"Hmph, even if we don't have this token, if we show him our tricks, how dare he not listen to us?" A tall and slender young man snorted and said indifferently.

"You two stop for a while, we are here to deal with business this time, not to play," the middle-aged scholar waved his hand, signaling the two to stop for a while.

"I don't know if the evil cultivator this county magistrate is talking about is true or not. If it's true, hey, if you dare to use mortals to practice magic skills, can you treat us as the royal family of the Song Dynasty who are made of mud?" A woman in blue sneered.

"Using mortals to practice kung fu is mostly a low-level evil cultivator, but no matter what, you should be careful later, after all, you have a short period of time to build a foundation, and you don't have much experience in fighting skills," the middle-aged scholar commanded a little worried .

"Understood, Seventh Uncle," the three of them agreed, with different expressions on their faces.

······
Wang Changsheng was sitting on the second floor of the teahouse, holding a teacup in his hand, but staring fixedly at a magnificent mansion opposite - Li's Mansion.

After putting the written letter on the county magistrate's desk, he came to a tea house opposite Li Dashan's mansion.

Whether the government can believe what he said, Wang Changsheng is not sure, he just hopes that the government can interfere with Li Dashan's actions and reduce the number of young children killed.

The reason why Wang Changsheng appeared here was naturally to observe the real situation of Li Dashan. When meeting for the first time, Wang Changsheng couldn't see any aura fluctuations in Li Dashan's body even with his sky eye technique. Either this person was a monk in the alchemy stage, or People have practiced some kind of secret technique, which can well cover up their aura fluctuations.

According to Wang Changsheng's guess, it was probably the latter, but he was not sure about his guess, so he appeared in this teahouse, hoping to observe Li Dashan's cultivation.

If this Li Dashan was not a monk in the alchemy stage, even if he was in the late stage of foundation establishment, Wang Changsheng could still use the talisman to fight. Although it was a good thing, it was based on what he could do, and he would not lose his life in vain.

To Wang Changsheng's disappointment, he had been sitting all morning, and Li Dashan hadn't shown up yet, so he probably won't come out today.

Wang Changsheng wondered if he should go into Li's residence at night to find out the truth.

Suddenly, Wang Changsheng straightened his expression and muttered to himself, "How did you come so fast?"

Following his gaze, dozens of police officers surrounded Li's residence, and the one walking in front was a middle-aged scholar.

There was nothing wrong with the arrest, he found that there were four immortal cultivators among this group of people. The middle-aged scholar had the highest cultivation level and was in the middle stage of foundation establishment. of cultivation.

Seeing these four people, Wang Changsheng couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. Unless the evil cultivators in Li's mansion were alchemy cultivators, they shouldn't be the opponents of these four people.
