Chapter 38 Secret Investigation
The demon-slaying room Quanzhi in the mansion, Zhan Zhao didn't say a word, and was slowly listening to Bao Zheng's story.
I just occasionally glanced at Bao Zheng, but I quickly withdrew my gaze, just like an old cat peeping at a mouse, unexpectedly.
It’s not that he doesn’t trust Bao Zheng, it’s just because of habit. However, if the other party deceives him by lies, he really can’t escape his eyes.
"Wen Zhi, are you sure you want to re-invest Wang Erlang's case?"
"I have also been a knife sharpener and have seen all kinds of holy souls. There are many people who say wronged. Wen Zhi, how did you judge that this case is wronged based on just one holy soul?"
Kaifeng Prefecture supervised the world for the Dagen Dynasty, so it naturally had the power to review the local plan and re-examine the local plan, but it would not start the re-examination procedure casually. After all, the reaction of the local officials must be considered.
Zhan Zhao values Baozheng as much as he values it. Rules are rules, and Baozheng must give convincing reasons.
"Brother Zhan, I haven't seen the file of this case yet, but based on my long-term experience of meeting the soul, it should be easy to determine whether this case is simple. Wang Erlang is likely to be wronged."
"As long as I go to Anliang County, check the files and personally check the case, I will definitely gain something..."
Bao Zheng could not say that Wang Erlang's head was covered with green light, and it was almost a forest. There must be a strange injustice in this case, so he had to vaguely speak out.
"Well, even that mouse admits that you are the number one sharpener in Kaifeng Prefecture. Zhan naturally trusts you, Bao Dalang, who is unparalleled in filial piety. I think so."
Zhan Zhao thought for a moment and said, "This case was closed by Anliang County. Although Kaifeng Prefecture has the power to supervise, there is currently no evidence, but it is difficult to easily interfere with local punishment.
If you want to re-invest the case, you can only conduct it secretly and get the preliminary evidence first, and then Kaifeng Prefecture can come forward to re-examine the case, but..."
Bao Zheng smiled and said, "Brother Zhan, do you have any other concerns?"
"In the early secret investigation, the branch office of Kaifeng Prefecture, Anliang County, is not convenient for you to come forward, so you can only rely on your own. If you encounter an urgent matter that concerns your life, even if you give up investigating the case, you should immediately show your identity as the Promoter of the Demon-Slaying Room of Kaifeng Prefecture. Do you remember it?"
"Brother Zhan, don't worry, investigating the case is important, but my own life is even more important."
"There is another thing that Zhan must remind you. If Wang Erlang said, the case also involves a special person, that is, the gentry who personally took Wang Erlang's Dongmenqing when he saw the unjust.
This person is famous in Anliang County. He is a famous rich man on Jingdong Road. He opened a medicine shop all over Jingdong Road, and there are probably dozens of them? Moreover, this person is the adopted son of the Grand Tutor Pang Ji of the dynasty, and he is not as simple as an ordinary gentry."
Zhan Zhao glanced at Bao Zheng: "Wenzhi must also know that there is a cultivator of the Dagen Dynasty. Although Dongmenqing is very rich, he is not a rich man. Instead, he is devoted to martial arts. He is a sixth-grade martial arts monk. He is already considered a No. 1 strongman in Dagen."
A sixth-grade martial arts monk?
Or is the adopted son of the Grand Master of the dynasty, who is quite a bit of a young man?
Bao Zheng nodded slightly. No wonder Wang Erlang, who was not a member of the grade, was able to kill an ordinary tiger, but he was no match for Dongmenqing.
Dongmenqing is afraid that he is the key figure in this case.
This case is interesting.
The three-inch Ding Wang, who sells soup cakes, is honest, his wife is famous for her, his brother Erlang beats a tiger, and he is a captain. There is also a Dongmenqing who is a medicine shop for opening a pharmacy...
No matter how you look at this case, it looks like a plot in a famous book I read in my previous life. It can be a legal person in my previous life and a proclaimer in this life. The principle of a legal person is to not take preconceived ideas when encountering a case.
Even if Wang Erlang has been identified as an unjust case by "Xiang Wenlu", he will never determine the content of the case in advance according to the plot of the famous book.
The specific case must be investigated carefully after he arrives in Anliang County before the truth can be revealed.
"Brother Zhan, don't worry, I will definitely be careful. Since that's the case, Bao Zheng said goodbye. I have the means to leave the capital secretly, and even Niu Zhili doesn't need to tell me. At this time, I need to ask Brother Zhan to hide it for the time being."
"Wenzhi, I understand, be careful when you go here."
Zhan Zhao nodded secretly. Bao Zheng knew that Dongmenqing was the adopted son of the Grand Tutor of the dynasty and might have been involved in this case, but he still insisted on going to Anliang County. With such responsibility, he was not in vain to become the promoter of the demon-killing room of Kaifeng Prefecture.
Suddenly remembering something, he quickly called Bao Zheng and said, "Wait, Dongmenqing has a vast friendship and great wealth, so it is really difficult to deal with. If he is really a kind gentleman, it is best if it is related to this case, it may be unfavorable to you."
"Wenzhi, bring this protective magic weapon. If you encounter danger, you can save your life."
As he said that, he took out a blue jade pendant from his arms and handed it to Bao Zheng: "This is a gift from Taoist Master Yiran to worship Taoist Master Yiran. It can avoid water and fire, and resist swords, weapons and hidden arrows. If you carry him with you, you can ensure that everything is safe."
When he handed out this piece of jade, Zhan Zhao felt a little painful.
He was an old cat who practiced to become a demon. He had been practicing for thousands of years, but had no authentic teaching. After he transformed, he relied on his extraordinary talent to practice martial arts and achieved his achievements today.
Although the Juque Sword in his palm is quite famous, it is actually just an ordinary magic weapon.
There are very few monks in all sects in the world who are truly skilled in refining weapons. Not to mention the demon clan like him who practices martial arts, even authentic Buddhist and Taoist disciples may not have a few decent magic weapons.
Not to mention the most precious body-protecting magic weapon, this "Ling Amber Jade" was given to him by Master Yiran because he was reluctant to give it to him. It was not easy for Zhan Zhao to take out this beloved magic weapon for Bao Zheng who had known him for a while.
Bao Zheng is also a registered disciple of the contemporary master of weapon refining. How can he not understand the preciousness of magic weapons?
He looked at Zhan Zhao with a painful face, and felt moved. He smiled and waved his hand and said, "Brother Zhan is afraid that he has forgotten my identity. After all, I am also a registered disciple of the Grand Master of Dagen Artifact Refining. Is there still a lack of protective magic weapons?"
"Don't worry, the master and sister love me very much. I don't have too many in my hands, so I can still take out a few magic weapons."
"How many...how many magic weapons?"
Zhan Zhao was half-believing and half-doubted, thinking that you, Bao Dalang, had just been to the master for a few days. The magic weapon is not a cabbage, and you don’t even blow it like that.
"Wenzhi, you don't have to be polite to Brother Zhan. Besides, this jade is not for you, but for lending it to you. Listen to Brother Zhan, take it!"
As he said that, he was about to force the jade into Bao Bao's forehand.
"Brother Zhan thought I was boasting? Then what do you think of these..."
Bao Zheng had a piece of his right hand, and a treasure light appeared, and five or six magic weapons floated in the air.
This is just the tip of the iceberg, and many of them are kept in the dantian and have never been taken out.
I was afraid that Zhan Zhao would be scared.
"This...meow..."
Bao Zheng thought he was low-key enough, but he didn't expect that he still scared Lord Zhan.
Zhan Zhao shook his body and almost fell into it, with a cat's image appearing on his face.
Although he is "poor", he still has eyesight. How could he not tell that these five or six are all medium-grade magic weapons?
You know, many middle-grade monks can't get a middle-grade magic weapon, so they can only make do with some low-grade magic weapons, or even ordinary magic weapons.
It was really blinded by a pair of cat eyes.
"Brother Zhan, you have nothing, are you?"
Bao Zheng shook his head secretly. He couldn't show off like this in the future, as it was too hurtful.
"No... nothing, Wen Zhi, are these magical tools given to you by Grandmaster Cen?"
Zhan Zhao's throat twitched for a moment, his face full of envy.
"Yes, this is a gift from the master to me."
Anyway, Zhan Zhao would not go to Cen Xiuzhu to verify, Bao Zheng said nonsense: "There are some that the master has refined in his early years, and I forgot to throw it in the warehouse. It was my senior sister who loved me, so she secretly helped me get a few pieces. Brother Zhan must keep it secret for me."
"I understand, understand!"
Zhan Zhao agreed to Bao Zheng, but his eyes were fixed on several magic weapons, and he couldn't even pull them out.
His treasure jade can only be counted as the lowest level. Compared with Bao Zheng's magic weapon, it is really a matter of comparison and throwing away.
Bao Zheng smiled and put away several magic weapons. He also left a ring magic weapon with a golden light on his hand.
"Brother Zhan Quan is an expert in Kaifeng Mansion. He is a giant in the demon-slaying house. How can he do it? It's so rumored that it's the face of our Kaifeng Mansion!
This magic weapon is called the "Essence Gold Circle". It is a medium-grade magic weapon that can attack and defend. It can transform into tens of millions of kilograms of huge force when attacking. When punctuality is turned into a golden ring to protect it. It is difficult to invade all evil. It is regarded as a gift from my brother to Brother Zhan.
Brother Zhan must not refuse, otherwise he will look down on me."
Such magical instruments have been warmed up in Bao Zheng's dantian for more than a dozen pieces. Zhan Zhao has a transcendent status in Kaifeng Mansion and is very beneficial to be close to him.
Moreover, Bao Zheng gave the magic weapon, which was a reward for his kindness, which was considered to repay Zhan Zhao's generosity just now.
"this......"
