Peach Blossom Moon

Chapter 40 Return to the Dark Fragrance Pavilion

"Is this the place where the case happened?" Walking in the room full of scars, Xuanyuanjin looked left and right, and picked up small objects on the ground from time to time and looked at them.

"To reply to the prince, this is where the Anxiang Pavilion is located." Zhang Chengxi was careful to accompany King Jing. From time to time, he was worried that if this delicate little prince stepped on porcelain fragments or was pierced by ferocious wooden thorns, he would wait for his head to move.

Xuanyuan Jin finished reading the whole Anxiang Pavilion, lowered his head and meditated for a while. Then he called a tall servant beside him and said a few words.

The servant nodded heavily, and then walked out quickly. Soon after, he brought back a drunken man.

The drunken man was full of wine, and his eyes were full of blood. Even if he was forcibly dragged to this strange place, he only glanced at everyone and found a more comfortable position to continue to sleep.

Xuanyuanjin put his sleeves around his mouth and nose, as if he couldn't stand the smell of wine from his body. He said in a muffled voice, "Get up and work."

A sharp light flashed in the drunken man's confused eyes. He turned over and got up, burped wine, and asked, "What kind of work?"

Xuanyuanjin ignored Zhang Chengxi's surprised expression, and just said lightly, "What's going on here?"

The drunk looked around, and then his face turned a little more serious and said, "What a strong demon!"

"Demon...Demon spirit?" Zhang Chengxi was scared. Why is it just a simple investigation of a case, and it even involves monsters?

"There are four strands." At this time, the drunkard couldn't see the drunkenness at all. "A plum demon, a willow demon, a peach demon, and the most powerful one. The demonic spirit is mixed with Taoist true spirit, which seems to be a big guy. Unfortunately, I can't figure out its identity for a while. In addition, there is another person's breath.

Xuanyuanjin was obviously not satisfied with this information. He clicked the drunk's knee with his toes and asked, "What else?"

The drunken man closed his eyes and began to think for a moment, and then said, "This room is the residence of the plum demon and the willow demon. It seems that it has been living for many years. The demon spirit permeates every item in the room, and it is well combined with the formation of the whole warm pavilion, which is by no means something that can be done for a moment. "

"It's really not what I expected. This kind of destructive power cannot be caused by manpower at all, let alone only one person. You go on." Xuanyuanjin drank the tea sent by the servant, and his expression was as if he were playing.

At this time, Zhang Chengxi has learned something from the drunken man's words, but he has always respected "the strange power of the gods", so he tried to control his thoughts and not to go in that direction.

"There is a smell of fragrance in the air. When the plum demon was ready to persuade mortals to absorb the essence, he was interrupted. There was a war between the two sides, and it was likely to hurt both sides." The drunk continued to say with his eyes closed.

"Oh!" Xuanyuanjin doesn't seem to agree with this point, "Are both sides hurt?"

"The plum demon and the peach demon were both injured, but..." The drunken man must say, "At this time, the most powerful force inserted in and seriously injured the plum demon."

"How can you be sure that the plum demon is seriously injured instead of the peach demon?" Xuanyuan Jin smiled lightly.

The drunk suddenly jumped up and pointed to the place where Zhang Chengxi stood. He was so scared that Zhang Chengxi jumped back and almost fell down. He looked down and saw that there was a black mark on the place where he had just stood, and there were two pieces of cracked wood on it.

The drunk man pointed to the two pieces of wood and traces and said, "This is the broken limbs and blood stains of the plum demon. If it weren't for the serious injury, she didn't have to do it.

The black traces and wood turned out to be blood stains and limbs...

Zhang Chengxi only felt that the world was spinning in front of his eyes, and his stomach was tumulting. He was disgusting. He had no choice but to endure it in front of Prince Jing.

Then, Xuanyuanjin remembered something and asked, "Can you find the person who was sucked by the plum demon?"

The drunkard suddenly looked sad: "There is a sea of people. How can you find it?"

Zhang Chengxi suddenly became enlightened and asked, "Then if you bring a person here, can you tell whether that person is the person who was fascinated at that time?"

Xuanyuanjin smiled and said in his heart: Youzi can be taught.

Zhou Chongxiao was brought back to the Anxiang Pavilion. He looked at a loss and didn't know what the magistrate was playing. When he stood in front of the drunk, he was smoked by the wine from the drunken man's mouth and almost spit it out.

Zhang Chengxi sat behind a temporary desk, leaning on a screen of "Four Gentlemen in Flowers" with a painted black gold thread, and opened the hall with a serious face.

And behind the screen, King Jing Xuanyuanjin shook the jade bone fan, and his slightly narrowed eyes seemed to be smiling.

"Zhou Chongxiao, you can recognize this place." Following the order of Prince Jing, Zhang Chengxi seemed to ask questions casually.

"I know, this is the Anxiang Pavilion." Although Zhou Chongxiao was confused, he still had to reply to the magistrate's question.

"I asked you to come and visit this place again, just to hope you can bring things to the truth."

"Zhou really didn't kill Miss Meixiang and Miss Green Willow. Zhou can swear to God. Zhou Chongxiao frowned. Unexpectedly, Zhang Chengxi asked him to come here for this purpose.

Just when he was worried that Zhang Chengxi would be punished because he didn't know the current affairs. Lord Zhang actually eased his face and said, "I believe you didn't kill their master and servant."

"Ah?" Now the situation turned sharply, and Lord Zhang's sudden change made Zhou Chongxiao stunned.

"Cough!" Zhang Chengxi coughed gently to call back Zhou Chongxiao's attention, and then continued to say, "In fact, I have new evidence, which is enough to prove that you are not the murderer of Meixiang's master and servant. Next, it depends on whether you are worthy to cooperate with me to continue the investigation.

Hearing that he could prove his innocence, Zhou Chongxiao was overjoyed.

At this time, the drunken man who had been next to him suddenly said, "Kid, you were saved by that peach demon, right?"

When he was shocked to hear that the drunkard actually broke Xuanyuanbi's identity and knew that he had been saved by her, Zhou Chongxiao understood that the drunken man in front of him was definitely not a simple person.

He had some scruples in his heart for fear that the drunken man would hurt Xuanyuanbi.

After all, shemales are not ripped, which is the idea of most people and demons.

"You don't have to be so vigilous. The old drunkard just wants to find out the truth, and it won't be bad for your friends." The drunk man raised the gourd around his waist and poured himself a mouthful of wine, which was vague.

Zhang Chengxi also followed the words and said, "Zhou Chongxiao, it is this master who testified for you that Meixiang's master and servant are monsters hidden here for many years, and you are just almost killed by them. Therefore, I hope you can tell the truth about the experience of that day and clear your grievances for yourself!"

The mind turned around. Since the magistrate pointed out a clear road for himself, Zhou Chongxiao immediately had a set of words in his stomach.

He looked sad in an instant and said, "Yes, on that day, Mei Xiang really wanted to harm me. She invited me here, and then fainted me and was ready to attack me. It's just that she didn't expect that my friend was worried and followed me secretly, which saved my life in time. My friend fought with Meixiang and was injured. Just when we thought we were bound to die, a golden dragon suddenly appeared and bit Meixiang, and my friends and I were able to get out. As for what happened later, I really don't know.

Zhang Chengxi listened carefully and saw that Zhou Chongxiao's statement was not far from the inference of the drunkard just now. He knew that this was probably the truth. I just didn't expect the truth to be like this.

"In this case, why don't you tell the truth, but let the Kim falsely accuse you and suffer injustice?"

Zhou Chongxiao smiled bitterly: "Your Excellency, if it weren't for this master to testify for me today, Zhou would have made these testimonies in court. Who would believe it?"

When Zhang Chengxi heard this, it was really reasonable.

If it hadn't been for Prince Jing's coming here with himself, and letting himself hear the inference of the story from the drunken man he had never met before, and then to prove Zhou Chongxiao's testimony, no one would have believed Zhou Chongxiao's empty words.

It's about monsters, and people are always suspicious and extremely resistant.

"Now that the truth has come out, I will be sentenced. Zhou Chongxiao returned home innocently. As for Kim's side, you don't have to worry. I will solve it for you. Zhang Chengxi has to be such a good person. Although I'm going to deal with Jin's mother at that time, it's actually the Prince Jing behind me.

"Thank you, Lord!" Zhou Chongxiao was overjoyed and thanked him urgently.

After sending Zhou Chongxiao away, Xuanyuanjin slowly turned out from behind the screen, came to the drunk with a smile and asked, "This boy is very interesting. Do you think it's true or not?"

The drunk opened his confused eyes and looked at his excited little face and shook his head: "Your Majesty, the old drunkard tells the truth. This boy is not simple. You'd better not provoke him."

The smile on Xuanyuanjin's face is even brighter: "It's definitely not easy for a person like me to care about. You have to say it."

When the drunkard heard the words, he knew that this fearless little prince had moved Zhou Chongxiao's mind. He couldn't stop him. He just hoped that nothing big would happen.

He sighed for a long time and was at the end of his life.

When Zhou Fu was in a panic because of Zhou Chongxiao's imprisonment, Zhou Chongxiao finally returned home safely under the protection of the government.

Mrs. Zhou's face was full of fatigue, and she was obviously haggard.

Although Zhou Chongxiao was stubborn, after all, he was filial. As soon as he saw his mother become like this, he suddenly felt that everything was wrong. He stepped forward and knelt in front of his mother with a plop.

"As long as it's okay, as long as it's okay." Holding her only son, Mrs. Zhou's almost broken heart calmed down, and the two lines burst into tears.
