Li Zian looked at her and felt that the air was filled with the smell of sting operation.
Chapter 373 Ha, you took the bait!
That night.
Xuan Jing lay on the bed, and today's experiences flashed through his mind like a revolving lantern.
Especially Li Qingcha's half-smiley expression.
He couldn't sleep anyway, and tossed and turned in bed for half the night, before he figured out something from the flashbacks.
That boy must have doubts!
No, we must take the things back, otherwise something bad will happen.
Xuan Jing got up and opened the window a little.
He stared at the dim lights in the distance, calculating in his mind the best time to take action.
When the hours of Zi and Chou meet, ordinary people are most likely to feel sleepy, and the officers of the Ministry of Justice will inevitably relax their vigilance. You should take this opportunity to act.
Having made up his mind, he stopped thinking about it and lay back on the bed.
Time passes slowly,
Xuan Jing quietly went out and came to the east wing.
Sure enough, as the moon rose higher, the guards from the Ministry of Justice in front of the door chatted less and less, and eventually they just dozed off while standing there.
Xuan Jing raised his eyebrows.
Wouldn't it be too easy...
Although he thought so, he was somewhat moved.
It is true that one can go all the way to the east wing from the roof, but the sound of stepping on tiles is much louder than the sound of stepping on the ground. The opportunity is right in front of him, and there is no need to keep consuming his energy on the light.
While I was weighing the pros and cons, footsteps were suddenly heard.
The two approached the east wing.
Xuan Jing quickly hid his figure and observed carefully, and found that they were two other officers from the Ministry of Justice.
One of them said, "Hey, you two, wake up, let's switch shifts..."
Just as he opened his mouth to say a few words, he was stopped by the person next to him.
"Shh!"
"Um...what are you doing?"
"Wouldn't it be better if they fell asleep? Let them stay here and we can go back to sleep."
"This one……"
"You just haven't been on the job for long. You're too honest."
The young officer scratched his head and finally decided to have an affair with her.
He and the old man turned around, arm in arm.
"You know more. However, this case involves monks, which is very troublesome. Why did you take the initiative to get involved?"
The old man slapped him.
"Boy, you are honest and you are not vague! This is a big case. If you handle it well, you may get a reward of several taels of silver~"
"makes sense."
"You, learn this well."
The two of them walked further and further away, and their voices gradually faded away.
Call ~
Xuan Jing let out a long breath.
He cursed himself in his heart why he set a goal. He just thought it was easy, but then it almost became difficult.
Although it is almost impossible for these ordinary people to discover themselves, there is a saying that goes, "It is better to be safe than sorry", and we should try to avoid avoidable risks.
Emmm...
Don't think about what is available and what is not available.
Xuan Jing waited for a while to make sure that the guard at the gate was still awake, then he quietly slipped into the east wing.
Arriving at the crime scene, he hesitated for a moment, and ultimately did not push the door open. Instead, he used his light body skills to lightly climb onto the roof, walked lightly, and stepped on the rubble to reach the chimney.
He took out the talisman paper and muttered something.
suddenly,
"Why did you guys fall asleep!?"
There were voices coming from outside the courtyard again.
Xuan Jing's hand trembled, and the spell was interrupted. He quickly listened attentively.
The man said again: "Wake up!"
This time, Xuan Jing heard it clearly, it seemed to be the voice of Bu Lin, the head of the Ministry of Justice.
Why is he here?
Xuan Jing's heart suddenly rose to his throat.
The officer guarding the east wing had already woken up by now. Seeing Bu Lin, he subconsciously asked, "Sir, why are you here in person?"
Bu Lin said, "Alas... Yu Youwei didn't make any breakthroughs, and Li Qingcha... ahem... Chief Li asked us to mobilize more people to search here, really..."
"Your Excellency has been working so hard."
"Forget it. I'll just stay here for now."
There was a rustling sound.
Bu Lin entered the east wing.
Xuan Jing thought he would go to the crime scene, but he didn't expect that he just walked around the yard and then went out.
It seems that the respect shown to Li Qingcha by Confucian scholars like Bu Lin and Li Zi'an is only superficial. Deep down, they still look down on those who have not passed the imperial examination and entered the officialdom.
tsk...
Sanctimonious.
Xuan Jing smiled and shook his head, feeling a lot more relaxed.
The Ministry of Justice and Li Qingcha are not a monolithic group, which is undoubtedly good news for him.
He squeezed the paper talisman again.
This time he simply didn't chant any spells, but instead used his free left hand to make finger gestures.
As the movements changed, a cloud of black smoke spread out.
Xuan Jing frowned.
calmly!
He warned himself secretly, then stuck the paper talisman on the chimney and covered it tightly with his right hand.
This action is like giving orders.
The black smoke spread and then gathered into a ball, then went straight into the chimney.
1 second……
2 second……
3 second……
time flies.
Xuan Jing felt that he was sweating.
Suddenly, the palm of his right hand was burned by the paper talisman. He couldn't help but feel happy. He put his index and middle fingers of his left hand together and lifted them up from bottom to top.
A gust of wind blew by,
Black smoke came out of the chimney, bringing with it a ball of pitch-black rag.
That's it!
Xuan Jing put away the rag and then became troubled, not knowing what to do.
After a long while, he shook his head.
I'm really stupid.
Take the rag back and wash it with clean water, and the evidence will naturally disappear. What is there to worry about?
Xuan Jing glanced at the east wing gate again.
The two officers had already woken up, so it was obviously inappropriate to go out from the front.
However, now that the evidence is in hand, it doesn't matter if you walk on the rooftop on tiles. Even if the officers hear it, they will at most go into the east wing to check and won't find anything.
Thinking of this, Xuan Jing floated all the way back to the small courtyard where he lived and pushed the door open to enter the house.
Everything happened without anyone noticing...
clatter--
With a slight sound, the light on the table suddenly lit up.
Xuan Jing suddenly opened his eyes wide.
Li Qingcha was sitting behind the table, holding the Liuguang in his right hand horizontally on the table.
"Master Xuan Jing, the art of controlling ghosts is a Tianzong technique, right?"
Xuan Jing:!!!
Subconsciously, he took out two paper talismans from his arms.
Li Qingcha had a bright smile on his face.
"Master Xuan Jing, don't be nervous. I just want to ask, where did you go just now?"
"I should be the one asking Lord Li this question. Lord Li, what is the matter with your late-night visit?"
"Of course it's for the evidence in your arms."
"..."
"..."
The two looked at each other.
a long time,
"I don't understand what Lord Li said."
Xuan Jing's face was cold.
Li Qingcha's smile grew wider.
"Master Xuan Jing, the Tianzong's ghost-controlling techniques are divided into two categories. One is the Hongfu spell, which can be used in all righteous actions; the other is the technique of borrowing hidden wealth, which must be used without fail. Is that right or wrong?"
"That's the Five Ghosts Moving Technique. The Tianzong's ghost control is much stronger than this."
"Well, whether it's the Five Ghosts Moving or the Ghost Controlling, there is a premise, right?"
"What do you want to say?"
"Do all that is good and avoid all that is evil. When the time comes, good and bad will come."
"..."
"..."
There was silence in the room.
After a while of confrontation, Xuan Jing finally couldn't bear the pressure anymore and spoke first.
