"Those who do good suffer poverty and have a shorter life. Those who commit evil enjoy riches and have a longer life. Earth, you cannot tell good from bad. What is earth? Heaven, you are wrong to judge the virtuous and foolish to be heaven … "
The woman's last words were from "Dou 'e's Injustice".
Li Mu had recited "Dou 'e's Injustice" once in the Yunyan Pavilion. Later, he was worried that he would be struck by lightning if he cursed at the heavens, so he never dared to recite it again. How could a woman from Yang County have recited it?
Li Mu's first thought was that this woman came from the same world as him.
Soon, he realized something. He looked at Constable Zhao and asked, "That woman who died of injustice, is she the little beggar we met in Yang County?"
Constable Zhao shook his head and said, "We haven't investigated clearly yet."
Li Mu muttered, "She must be …"
At this moment, he finally understood the reason for the inexplicable heavy rain in the county city that day.
In the other world, "Dou 'e's Injustice" was fictional. Most of the people who died of injustice would not have their day of redress. Even more so, they would not be able to sense the power of heaven and fulfill their vows one by one …
But this was a mysterious and strange world. This world had all sorts of inexplicable and mysterious powers.
The Heavenly Dao of this world had a unique operating pattern. Although it was difficult to understand, it truly existed.
Whether it was supernatural powers or Daoist techniques, they all used incantations or mantras to communicate with heaven and earth.
Cultivators used Daoist vows to communicate with heaven and earth. If they went against their vows, they would really be punished by heaven and earth.
Here, the gods were watching. One had to be careful with one's words. One could not simply curse heaven and earth.
One of those two sentences must have been like Daoist techniques and mantras. It could communicate with the power of heaven and earth and cause heaven and earth to resonate. It could raise a Yin spirit to such a terrifying level.
The reason Li Mu could not be like that woman was because he did not have any resentment. His overflowing resentment, coupled with heaven and earth's resonance, created such a peerless evil spirit.
While Li Mu was still struggling to calm down, one of the constables suddenly wondered, "That's strange, why do these two sentences sound so familiar …"
Suddenly, he slapped his head and said, "I remember now. That day when I was listening to a storyteller at the newly opened teahouse in the prefecture capital, this sentence was said by the storyteller. The main culprit of this case is the storyteller. Boss, should we capture the storyteller first?"
"Catch, catch, catch my ass!"
Constable Zhao could not help but smack him hard on the head and scolded angrily, "The main point is that storyteller. The main point is that the woman was wronged and died. Her resentment shocked the heavens and earth, and she was recognized by the heavens and earth. You still dare to arrest people. Do you want to create another evil spirit and slaughter the county government?"
The bailiff trembled and hugged his head, not daring to say another word.
Constable Zhao took a deep breath and said, "The County Magistrate of Yang County has done all sorts of evil deeds and will be punished by the heavens. However, he is still an official of the imperial court. Li Mu, Lin Yue, you two get ready. In a moment, you will follow the two officials to Yang County …"
Li Mu asked, "Are we going to get rid of that evil spirit?"
Constable Zhao sighed and said, "It is not certain who will get rid of who. We need to be wary of King Chujiang. With such an evil spirit appearing in the world, King Chujiang will definitely try his best to rope her in. Once she is subdued by King Chujiang, it will be a catastrophe for the entire North County …"
Li Mu thought about the clear eyes of the little beggar and could not help but clench his fists.
Those who do good suffer poverty and have a shorter life. Those who do evil enjoy wealth and have a longer life … The Thousand Illusions Venerable had said the same thing to him. At that time, Li Mu had scoffed at it. Now, he deeply understood that this seemingly bright world had always been hiding an unknown darkness.
It had been like this since ancient times.
A County Magistrate was killed and the county government was massacred. This kind of thing had only happened a few times since the founding of the Zhou Dynasty. It would definitely attract the attention of the imperial court.
The North County could not suppress this matter. The county government had already sent the news from the relay station to the Central County. It was believed that the imperial court would quickly react.
The evil spirit had caused the Yang County government to be destroyed. This time, the North County Magistrate and the County Lieutenant would lead the six constables and more than ten constables to the Yang County to maintain the peace of the Yang County.
What they had to fight was not only the evil spirit but also King Chujiang and his Ghost Generals, who might take advantage of the situation.
Li Mu had an hour. He had to go home and tell Yoo Han-yeon.
After a while, Yoo Han-yeon stood in the courtyard and said unhappily, "You just returned home for a few days. Why are you leaving again …"
Li Mu held her hand and explained, "A big case suddenly happened in the Yang County. We have to go immediately. Otherwise, more people might be in danger."
Yoo Han-yeon asked, "How many days will you be gone this time?"
Li Mu said, "I don't know yet. But as long as the matter in the Yang County is solved, I will immediately rush back."
Yoo Han-yeon sighed and silently helped Li Mu pack his luggage. She hugged him gently and leaned her head on his chest. She said, "Be careful."
After cuddling with Yoo Han-yeon for a while, Li Mu rushed to the county government as fast as he could. This time, the County Magistrate and the County Lieutenant had to go to the Yang County. He could not be late like last time.
When he rushed back to the county government, not everyone had arrived.
What surprised him was that Li Si was also standing in the crowd.
Li Si pointed at his face and signaled to Li Mu with his eyes.
Li Mu wiped away the lipstick mark on his face and pointed at Li Si's face. There was a huge lipstick mark on both sides of his face.
Li Si reached out and rubbed his face. Li Mu asked, "Are you going to the Yang County too?"
Li Si sighed softly and said, "Father-in-law said that my cultivation came too fast. He wants me to go out and train more so that I can protect Miaomiao in the future."
Li Si's magic power was forcefully increased by his courage and soul. He had the magic power to condense the soul but did not have the strength to condense it. He was strong on the outside but weak on the inside. He indeed needed to train.
A figure walked in from outside. When Green Snake saw the scene in the courtyard, she asked in surprise, "Where are you going?"
Li Mu said, "The Yang County."
"I want to go too!" She said happily, "Finally, I have something to do. I've been bored to death these days."
Constable Zhao walked forward and said, "This trip to the Yang County is very dangerous. Your life may be in danger. For Miss Tingxin's safety, you should stay in the county government."
Bai Tingxin frowned and asked, "What do you mean? Are you saying that I'm too weak?"
Constable Zhao said helplessly, "I didn't mean that."
Bai Tingxin snorted and glanced at Li Mu. She said, "Li Mu will protect me. You promised my father."
Li Mu shook his head and said, "I can't even protect myself, let alone you."
Bai Tingxin looked at him and said, "That's not what you said when you were in bed … Ugh …"
Li Mu covered her mouth and said, "Go if you want to. If you really encounter any danger, I can only save your life. If you lose an arm or a leg, you will bear the consequences."
These two snakes, one green and one white, were two extremes.
They were both born of the same mother. Bai Yinxin was as innocent as a little white flower. Why was her sister so green?
Bai Tingxin took away Li Mu's hand and said angrily, "Next time you cover my mouth, I will bite you and poison you!"
Li Mu glanced at her and said, "Don't talk nonsense next time."
This snake demon obviously had no sense of propriety, justice, integrity, and shame. She would talk about sex all the time. People who didn't know would think that she had no fear of sex demons. After hooking up with Yoo Han-yeon, she hooked up with the White Demon King.
After Bai Tingxin messed around with Li Mu for a while, she ignored him and walked around the courtyard. Sometimes she stopped in front of the constables and looked at them carefully.
Everyone was scared by her stare. Because of her background, they didn't dare to say anything.
Bai Tingxin looked at them and muttered carefully.
"This one is too old."
"This one is too ugly."
"This one is old and ugly."
"This one is too fat."
"This one is too thin …"
…
After walking around the courtyard, she came to Li Mu and Li Si again.
She first looked at Li Si and shook her head. "You look okay, but you are too thin. You don't have enough Yang Qi. I can tell you that you are not a virgin …"
Finally, she came to Li Mu and circled around him. She poked his arm and patted his chest. She said, "You're not tall, not thin, and you're fleshy. Your Yang Qi is more than all of them combined. Your Yang Qi must still be there …"
She licked her lips and said to Li Mu, "Why don't you abandon that big-breasted woman and be with me? My family has countless spiritual jades. You can use as much as you want. My father also has many treasures. You can choose whatever you want …"
If Yoo Han-yeon heard this, Wanwan and Little Bai might have eaten snake soup today.
Li Mu smiled and whispered in her ear, "Sorry, I like big-breasted women."
Bai Tingxin lowered her head and looked at her flat body. She said unwillingly, "What is so good about that woman? Other than her big breasts, there is nothing good about her …"
Li Mu ignored her. He knew that Yoo Han-yeon was good. There was no need for him to tell her.
The crowd waited in the courtyard for another 15 minutes. Two figures came in from outside.
One of them was County Lieutenant Shen, whom Li Mu was familiar with. The other was a middle-aged man. Although there was no fluctuation of mana, Li Mu felt that he was unfathomable.
There was no need to guess his identity. He was County Lieutenant Chen, Chen Miaomiao's father and Li Si's father-in-law. He was one of the two Destiny Realm masters in the county government. His strength was one realm higher than County Lieutenant Shen.
Arrester Zhao first told County Lieutenant Shen about Bai Tingxin. County Lieutenant Shen looked at her and did not say anything.
County Lieutenant Chen waved his hand and a white light shot out from his sleeve. It turned into a huge flying boat and floated above the crowd.
He jumped onto the bow of the boat and said, "Come on up."
Everyone jumped onto the flying boat. County Lieutenant Chen made a Dharma seal. Li Mu sensed that there was an invisible air shield around the flying boat. Then, the flying boat soared into the sky and headed out of the city.
Li Mu stood on the flying boat. It was very stable. The scenery under his feet was moving backward rapidly. The speed of the flying boat was more than twice as fast as a high-level Teleport Talisman.
After half an hour, the flying boat descended from the sky and landed in the county government of Yang County.
