The evil immortal was a habitual offender.
If the incident could be traced back to before Hoplite ascended the throne, or even before that, the fact that he had not been caught and killed by the Righteous Gods for so long was enough to show that he knew how to distance himself from things and erase all traces of himself.
On this point, Zhu Minglang had already experienced it.
However, as long as he committed a crime, he would definitely leave something behind.
For example, why did he target Wei Zhuo's family!
A smart habitual offender would not be too deliberate in his targets.
Wei Zhuo and his son both died, and even the whole family died tragically. The ancestral hall of their ancestors was burned down, and the neighbors were all dead …
Let's not look at Wei Zhuo's actions for now.
In the big picture, everyone related to the Wei family had a tragic ending!
Did this evil immortal have a grudge with the Wei family?
After all, from the cases in Pingbo City, all of them died of old age, and the people around them were not implicated.
Only Wei Zhuo's family was involved in a wide range of things, and it was not inferior to the Emperor's torture — the execution of ten families!!
Unfortunately, his family was all gone.
The neighbors were all gone.
Zhu Minglang wanted to ask, but he could not get an answer.
Fortunately, Zhu Minglang found a yellowed book in the courtyard. It looked like the kind that a shopkeeper used to keep accounts, but it was not used to calculate daily necessities. Instead, it used very simple words to write down daily matters.
Wei Zhuo had the habit of sketching out life.
This was a good habit. Every evil person liked to write a diary, and this made the law-enforcement officers less worried.
Zhu Minglang flipped through the book in the house …
From the records, it could be seen that Wei Zhuo really loved his child. Most of the content was about his child's growth. Just by looking at this diary, it was certain that Wei Zhuo was a good father.
"Ruixue, I was very unhappy that my child sold a piece of cloth that was stained with oil, but if I reprimanded him directly, he might not listen. So I told him a story from when I was young, so that he could understand that what he did was wrong. I think he understood. It seems that this method of teaching is very effective. "
"Speaking of which, this happened twenty or thirty years ago? I don't remember the details. "
"There was a young salt seller who came to my house to sell bags of salt. I saw that the quality and taste of the salt was good, so I bought ten bags and put them at home. Who knew that other than the first bag of salt, the other nine bags were all powder scraped from dolomite."
"I didn't want any neighbors to be deceived, so I wandered around for several days. Finally, I saw this peddler selling fake salt again. I caught him, but he begged me not to report it to the authorities, saying that he had a seriously ill younger brother. I felt compassion for him, but I also felt that he was lying to me, so I asked him to take me to see his seriously ill younger brother. He hemmed and hawed, so I didn't believe him anymore and sent him to the yamen."
Zhu Minglang stroked his chin. After reading this paragraph, Zhu Minglang's lips curled into a smile.
Hehe, evil immortal!
No matter how resourceful you are, no matter how much you understand the relationship between cause and effect, you can't predict that Wei Zhuo has the habit of writing a diary!
Since he was sent to the yamen, there must be a criminal record in the yamen.
Even if it was from twenty or thirty years ago, the yamen would still preserve it. Zhu Minglang had already experienced this in the yamen in Pingbo City. The yamen in Yuheng Xian City was very outstanding!
This place belonged to Moonlight City.
As long as he went to Moonlight City to investigate this matter, he would know the real name of the evil immortal!
Moreover, the evil immortal was obviously a resident of Yuheng Xian City!
…
Zhu Minglang went to the yamen in Moonlight City and found the person in charge.
The person in charge was not careless. Knowing that Zhu Minglang was a god, he immediately sent someone to retrieve the case files from the early years.
"How long will it take?" Zhu Minglang asked the officer.
"It won't take long. This humble one knows a little about magic." The officer smiled, then gently placed his palm on the thick case file.
It was as if he could quickly read the contents with just a touch. The officer's eyes swiveled at an extraordinary speed.
One book after another, year after year.
Finally, Bao Guan raised his hand and his eyes focused.
"One hundred and thirty-four pages," the officer said confidently.
Zhu Minglang immediately flipped open the thick case file and flipped to this page.
Zhu Minglang quickly scanned through it. Soon, he saw the criminal record on the yellowed page.
"Young Hong Mo, sixteen years old. Guilty of fraud. Fifty strokes of the cane, three months in prison …"
The details of the case were described at the back. It was much more detailed than what was written in Wei Zhuo's diary. How many families had been scammed, how much money had been made in total, what methods had been used, etc …
In addition, this case was from forty years ago. Wei Zhuo should not have remembered it clearly. Therefore, even if he had made a deal with the evil immortal and brought the evil immortal to the yamen, he would not have recognized him.
"This is selling fake goods. Why is it considered fraud? The punishment seems a little heavy. "Zhu Minglang was puzzled.
"This depends on how the yamen at the time was handed down. For this kind of thing, if the punishment was light, it would be adulteration and fraud. This is something that merchants often do. They would be fined and not allowed to do business. But if the punishment was heavy, it would be fraud. If the punishment was heavy, they would be beaten to death and imprisoned for more than ten years, "the officer said.
"Oh, oh, thank you. It's enough to know the name and the date of birth." Zhu Minglang nodded.
With the name, the date of birth, and some of the things that happened when he was young, Zhu Minglang could begin his arrest in the Immortal Court's Hall of Dreams. He would summon his earthly soul first. Even if he could not be judged, he would be able to find some clues.
When he found the location of his earthly soul …
That would be when Zhu Minglang killed the evil immortal vendor!
No wonder Da Zuo and Da You could not capture his heavenly soul in the Hall of Dreams.
This guy was a real Immortal of the Evil Azure. He was not bound by the laws of the Righteous Gods!
Zhu Minglang thanked the capable officer. When he turned to leave, the officer called out to Zhu Minglang.
"Exalted God, please wait," the officer said.
"Did you find anything else?" Zhu Minglang asked.
"If this person is the main culprit behind the tragedy of the Wei Family, then Wei Zhuo should not be the only person he wants to take revenge on. You also think that the punishment from forty years ago was a little inappropriate, right? So I think that the next people that this evil immortal wants to take revenge on might include the yamen that handled the case forty years ago, "the officer said to Zhu Minglang.
Zhu Minglang's eyes lit up when he heard this.
That made sense!
The puny officer in the mortal world had such wisdom. His future was limitless.
"You've reminded me. Who was the yamen from forty years ago?" Zhu Minglang asked.
"Let me see. It's written on the last page of every case …" The officer did not use any spells this time. He flipped to the next page personally.
As a result, the officer frowned. His face showed some confusion and melancholy.
Zhu Minglang walked over and looked at the pen at the end of the case record. He realized that the pen was written in a very strange place.
There was no doubt that it was a name at the end of the brush. However, when you glanced at the name, it was indeed at the end of the brush. When you carefully tried to identify the words, the name actually became somewhat hazy, making you feel that every word was unfamiliar. No matter how hard you tried, you couldn't pronounce it, not even in your mind!
"Exalted God, I'm afraid that this yamen has already become an immortal," the officer said to Zhu Minglang carefully after bowing to the name.
"Yes. After some people become immortals, their records in the mortal world cannot be peeked at." Zhu Minglang nodded.
Although that was what he said, Zhu Minglang became more serious.
With his Godhood, he should be on par with the Northern Dipper's Seven Star Gods in the Northern Dipper.
However, he could not see the yamen's name in the mortal world.
There was only one explanation. The yamen's Godhood was on par with his!
