Chapter 797: The Truth Comes Out

The stench on Chunhua Street was so bad that the surrounding people covered their mouths and noses and backed away in fear, fearing that they would be contaminated by a trace of filth.

At the door of Jiuzhitang, Song Henian's face gradually darkened. He thought he would get the results soon if he let this idiot test the poison, but he didn't expect that the development of the situation was beyond his expectation. Looking at the idiot's appearance, he could not possibly be infected. A manifestation of venom...

Song Henian subconsciously looked at the public case, where more than a dozen poison bottles were placed in sequence.

"Master Song, this should prove that Jasper Pill is effective, right?"

At this time, Xu Zhenqing turned around and asked Song Henian.

"This, this Jasper Pill is indeed effective."

Song Henian originally wanted to question whether the poisons were ineffective, but when he saw Xu Zhenqing's serious face, he swallowed his words. If he questioned it on the spot, it would be a crime of disrespect. If Xu Zhenqing was offended, he would He also had to be embarrassed in front of the city lord.

When Heizi was testing the poison just now, Shopkeeper Xue's heart clenched.

He has been practicing medicine for more than ten years, so he naturally knows the properties of these poisons. There are more than ten kinds of poisons. Even if he takes one of them, he is in danger of dying on the spot. If he swallows them all, even if there is an antidote, he may not be able to The method takes effect before the poison occurs.

Therefore, Shopkeeper Xue was not optimistic about Heizi's behavior of trying poison on his own body, and he was already prepared to accept the reality.

After the sunspot poison took effect, shopkeeper Xue subconsciously closed his eyes, thinking that not only would he die this time, but he would also implicate others, and he felt extremely regretful.

However, after a while, Heizi calmed down again, and Shopkeeper Xue immediately became energetic. The reason why Heizi could survive for so long was definitely due to the effect of the Jasper Pill. As long as Heizi was fine next, he wouldn't have to be beheaded!

It wasn't until Song Henian said that the Jasper Pill was real and effective that shopkeeper Xue suddenly burst into tears: "God has eyes, I have already said that the Jasper Pill is real, but you don't believe it, and you want to drag me to behead me. Now Finally proved that I am innocent, woo woo woo..."

Shopkeeper Xue was crying and slapping the ground hard. It made everyone sad when they heard it and shed tears when they saw it.

After waiting for a while, Song Henian saw that Heizi had been helped into the toilet next to him by the three brothers. He finally accepted the reality, turned around and said to Xu Zhenqing: "Thanks to Xu Zhenren's timely reminder, Xue Lu's innocence was cleared." , I have learned a lesson.”

In his words, he did not mention his dereliction of duty due to his ignorance and almost killing a good man.

Xu Zhenqing came here under the order of his uncle to clear Xue Lu's innocence. Now that Xue Lu was proven innocent, the purpose of his trip had been achieved. As for Song Henian's handling of the case, he didn't want to comment too much, so he He said calmly: "Sir, you are too polite. Pindao did it casually. He didn't mean to interfere. However, there is still a doubtful point in this case. Your Excellency should find out."

Song Henian asked doubtfully: "What do Master Xu have to say?"

Glancing outside the crowd, Xu Zhenqing said: "Since Heizi was still able to detoxify with Jasper Pill after taking thirteen toxins, and brother Guo Hanjiang was only poisoned by one but died of poison, I'm afraid there is some hidden secret in this. The adults should use this as a breakthrough to find out if there is any hidden secret behind this case!"

These words came from Xu Zhenqing's mouth. Although he did not use a strong tone, Song Henian felt great pressure. He had misjudged the case and almost killed shopkeeper Xue by mistake. Now Xu Zhenqing clearly said that there was something fishy about this case. If he doesn't find out, his ability to handle cases will definitely be questioned by the public, and it may become a stain on his resume, and his promotion will be affected.

"What's the purpose of Guo Hanjiang?"

Since it is a false accusation, the death of Brother Guo Hanjiang must be unusual. If we find a breakthrough from here, we might be able to quickly find out the secret behind it!

Thinking of this, Song Henian looked at Guo Hanjiang in the crowd and shouted: "Guo Hanjiang, I would like to ask you, after your brother was poisoned, he still died after taking Jasper Pill. Does this matter have anything to do with you?"

"Sir, my brother was indeed poisoned to death. The villain has always been by his side. I saw his death with my own eyes. Please tell me clearly!"

Guo Hanjiang hurriedly lowered his head and bowed in salute.

Song Henian hesitated slightly. After all, Guo Hanjiang was the plaintiff. Now that the case was clear, and there was no evidence that there was any problem with the death of Guo Hanjiang's brother, there was no reason for the plaintiff to be tortured. Naturally, he could not get the confession he wanted. This case was probably only It can't be settled.

However, Xu Zhenqing did not want to let Guo Hanjiang go, and said to him in a deep voice: "These are all your words. There are still many doubts about how your brother died. However, Pindao has a way to clear away the suspicion for you. I wonder if you dare to give it a try?”

Guo Hanjiang was shocked, raised his head and asked, "What, what can I do?"

Xu Zhenqing said in a clear voice: "There is a miraculous skill in the Pindao sect, which can detect other people's memories with spiritual consciousness. If what you say is unnecessary, I will know it as soon as I find it. Do you dare to let Pindao try it?"

Guo Hanjiang's face changed drastically. If his memory was penetrated by spiritual consciousness, his secret would be exposed. How dare he let Xu Zhenqing investigate.

"There is no way to escape death today!"

Guo Hanjiang's mind was spinning, and he couldn't think of any way to escape the crime. He felt so cruel that he grabbed a commoner and threw him more than ten meters away from Xu Zhenqing. At the same time, he quickly got out of the crowd, as if he was flying. Flee towards the city gate.

In full view of everyone, Guo Hanjiang made this choice out of necessity.

If he didn't find a way to escape, he would definitely be convicted of false accusation when his crime was exposed. In the Qingxu Realm, there are clear regulations on false accusation: if he commits this crime, he will be punished!

Guo Hanjiang falsely accused Manager Xue and was almost sentenced to death by slicing. If he was punished, he would be tortured by slicing, which would be more painful than killing him directly. Therefore, even in the presence of a Jindan master, Guo Hanjiang had to give it a try and find a way to escape from Huayang.

This civilian was thrown out with great force. If no one came to rescue him, he would definitely fall to death on the tall archway on the street. The only person who could save his life was Xu Zhenqing, who was closest to him and had the highest cultivation level.

Guo Hanjiang's purpose was very clear. He wanted to make Xu Zhenqing, who had the cultivation level of Jindan, unable to take care of other things. He could force his way out of Huayang City with his cultivation level of the late stage of foundation building. As long as he could escape from Huayang City, he would have a chance to survive.

There were also cultivators among the people watching the excitement, but Guo Hanjiang suddenly attacked, and the people around him had no time to react. They were knocked all over by him and had no ability to surround him. He actually broke through the crowd and fled to the city gate at a high speed.

Chunhua Street was originally the closest place to Huayang City. Guo Hanjiang ran at full speed, and the city gate appeared in front of him in a few breaths.

Seeing that this guy actually ran away in front of him, Song Henian was immediately furious and shouted to the constables to chase and intercept him.

Unfortunately, the constables were a step slower, and the people were frightened and began to flee in all directions, which greatly reduced the speed of the constables. They could only watch Guo Hanjiang's back anxiously.

Seeing that he was about to escape from Huayang City, a golden sword light flashed on the street. Before the pursuers could see the situation clearly, they saw Guo Hanjiang fall to the ground with a gourd.

Everyone was shocked when they saw the situation. Guo Hanjiang's legs were broken at the knees, and blood was gushing out of the wounds!

"What are you still standing there for? Catch him!"

Song Henian, who arrived later, was so excited that he felt like he had found a treasure again. He didn't care who cut off Guo Hanjiang's legs. He shouted to his men to catch him.

When the detectives came forward to hold Guo Hanjiang down, he had fainted from the pain. Only then did Xu Zhenqing rush over.

"Sir Song, do you know who stopped Guo Hanjiang?"

Xu Zhenqing looked around curiously. He must be a master in the Golden Core Stage to be able to cut off the legs of a master in the late Foundation Establishment stage with one sword.

Unfortunately, Song Henian asked people to look around but didn't find who the other person was.

"It seems that the other party does not want to reveal his identity. In this case, let's forget it."

There are many Jindan masters in Huayang City. It is not uncommon for someone to help secretly, so Xu Zhenqing did not bother about it anymore.

After Guo Hanjiang was captured, his accomplices were also arrested one after another. In order to restore his reputation, Song Henian went to court to publicly try the case again, trying to minimize the impact.

In the teahouse opposite Jiuzhitang, several old men were fidgeting. They did not expect things to develop like this, and hurriedly began to discuss how to deal with the beginning and the end.

Unfortunately, when Guo Hanjiang was in trouble, Song Henian had direct evidence. As long as he found out the truth of the case, they would be doomed.

"Forget it, let's pack up and leave Huayang as soon as possible. If you have a green mountain, you will not be afraid of having no firewood to burn!"

After an urgent discussion, the old men decided to run away first, otherwise the false accusation would be placed on their heads, and they would be cut into pieces, which would be more painful than dying directly.

Just as they were about to leave the teahouse, the door was suddenly pushed open. Before they could see the face of the person coming, they felt a pain in the back of their heads and fainted.

In front of Jiuzhitang, Song Henian had already found out the details of the case.

It turned out that the Jade Pill sold by Jiuzhitang had taken away a lot of business from its peers because of its low price and strong effect.

The pills sold by these pharmacies are basically detoxification pills of the same grade as the Jade Pill. If they develop in this direction, their relatively hot detoxification pill business will plummet in the future and there will be no profit at all.

In this case, several pharmacy owners in Huayang City secretly discussed and bribed Guo Hanjiang with several thousand Tongbao, asking him to poison his brother and then take the Jade Pill, so as to frame Jiuzhitang and thus attack competitors.

After listening to Guo Hanjiang's confession, Song Henian was so angry that he slammed the table again and again. This act of blaming others was completely taking advantage of his incompetence, but he really fell for it.

This is intolerable!

"Come here, bring those despicable profiteers to me!"

Song Henian picked up the lottery tube and threw it directly to the ground, causing the lottery sticks to scatter all over the ground.

However, before the runners of the Criminal Affairs Department were dispatched, the people outside the crowd started shouting.

When the crowd dispersed, Song Henian saw that several people were dragging several old men over like dead dogs.

These people were the shopkeepers of the drugstore who framed Xue Lu!

At this point, the whole case was clear and unmistakable, and Shopkeeper Xue was finally vindicated. The smashed Jiuzhitang became even more famous and was praised by the people of Huayang.

Chu Yang, who made such a big scene, left without leaving any credit or fame...
