Chapter 754 Duke: I Will Call You Fat Tiger From Now on (Addition for Youth Day)
"The little demon has killed a total of 152 people."
The tiger demon stretched out its tiger paw, imitating the way humans make jokes, while observing Duke.
Seeing that his brows were slightly wrinkled, he immediately kowtowed and explained:
"Among them, there are only more than 90 good people, and the rest are robbers and robbers entrenched in the mountains, all of whom have had human lives in their hands."
"By doing this, the little demon is doing justice for the heavens."
Hearing this, Duke frowned.
Since ancient times, all murderers die, unless there is something hidden in it, they can be merciful outside the law.
As for robbers and robbers, especially the ones whose hands are stained with the blood of the same kind, if they are handed over to him for trial, the result must be a decisive decision!
"There is no evidence for empty talk, but is there any basis?"
Duke's tone was a little relaxed, giving people a sense of judging the case according to law.
In fact, how dare the tiger demon lie to the killing star in front of him. Hearing that his words were being questioned, he hurriedly said: "The people in the city should know that before the little demon took over the mountain and became king, there were a group of heinous bandits there."
He turned his gaze to the master.
The middle-aged man with a mustache and thin body, but with oily eyes in his small eyes nodded immediately, and said, "There is indeed a nest of vicious gangsters entrenched on Sigu Mountain."
"It's just...just..."
"Hesitating, what are you doing? Don't speak out!"
Duke has long been displeased with these old-timers who act according to the wind, so he couldn't help getting a little angry at this situation.
As the saying goes, accumulating prestige is very important.
Although Xin Fuzun has just taken office, what he has done in the past few days should not be too fierce.
What landlords and gentry, aristocratic families?
As long as Master Du gets angry, he will immediately kneel down.
They can easily deal with even the monsters who kill people like hemp and grind their teeth all day long to allow blood. Who dares to mess with little chickens? I'm afraid it's not too long.
Thinking of this, the master also imitated the appearance of a tiger demon, and with a plop, he fell to his knees straight, and quickly explained in his mouth: "Before the lord Fuzun took office, the villain had discussed with other colleagues about the suppression of bandits in Sigu Mountain. Ask the subordinate staff to encircle and suppress them."
"And it took them three days to arrest all the culprits..."
Speaking of this, the master's body shuddered involuntarily, and an undisguised malice stared at him, making one feel like falling into an ice cave.
"Huh? Kneeling honestly, what a monster!"
Duke snorted coldly at the tiger demon.
However, when it came to his own life, the tiger demon didn't care about anything else, and cried out: "The little demon dare not lie, if the adults don't believe it, the little demon will immediately release their ghosts and confront the master."
At the same time, the subordinate staff who were maintaining order below suddenly knelt down.
The master knew that he couldn't hide it, so he shirked and said:
"The lower officials are only responsible for issuing arrest warrants, and they don't know anything else. The subordinates swear that all the gangsters have been arrested, and they will be sent to be questioned and killed when the time comes..."
As soon as the words were spoken, there was a commotion downstairs, the people who felt wronged in their hearts shouted Lord Qingtian, and the police kept kowtow.
Where is the use of speculation?
It must be this group of lawless guys who went to arrest honest people to make up for their crimes. Back then, when he was serving in the Xiliang Army, Duke heard that some soldiers liked to kill good people and pretend to be meritorious.
Of course, the fate of those soldiers was miserable, especially after Duke took part of the military power.
"quiet!"
"How decent is it to act like this!"
In an instant, the world was silent.
The tiger demon stared at the master and the incompetent subordinates below with fierce eyes, this group of corrupt officials and incompetent rats almost killed the demon!
After all, the crimes on it are difficult to wash away, and it was hard to find a remarkable deed, and it was almost overthrown...
Isn't this intentionally killing Master Tiger?
Facing the cold gaze of the eye-catching white-fronted tiger, the master simply lay down on the ground and stopped looking.
However, Duke was unwilling to let him go, and said in a deep voice, "Those innocent people, have they ever asked to beheaded?"
"Never, never."
The master is the best at observing words and expressions, knowing that if he dares to evade and conceal things again, the head on his neck will be separated immediately, so he simply put his heart on the line and said frankly:
"The group of people below are willing to do anything for rewards. At first they only focused on beggars, and later they were ordinary people without family members."
"Although the subordinate officials and colleagues are clear in their hearts, but if they think about one more thing, it is better to have one less thing, so they just let it go."
"Fortunately, the lord of the government arrived in time, his eyes were like a torch, and he was able to discern every detail... so that we could avoid a big mistake. At present, those innocent people are all detained in the big prison. They are indeed almost starved of food, but they are all alive... "
"Go down and kneel down, I'll clean you up at night and fix the mess." Duke's voice was gloomy.
The master didn't hesitate, just as he said, he slowly rolled down the steps.
But the tiger demon froze in his heart, knowing whether it was life or death, it would depend on the next few breaths, and immediately made a final statement, crying in his voice: "The little demon is still holding the ghosts of those people, keeping them Help yourself to continue doing evil."
"Now, after listening to the lord's teachings, I decided to change my mind and become a tiger again, so I let the ghosts go to reincarnate and follow the lord to do good deeds and atone for their sins."
"My lord, the little demon used to be a beast and didn't understand the laws of the world, let alone know that doing so would cause such a serious crime. Only when I met you will I know the rules..."
Humans can give up propriety, justice, integrity and shame in order to survive, and the same is true for monsters. To a certain extent, what the tiger monster said actually makes sense. Why should animals follow the rules set by humans?
Whoever has the biggest fist is right.
Previously, the tiger demon had big fists, no one dared to settle accounts with it even though it harmed countless people, that's the reason.
What's more, if people are allowed to eat animals, are animals not allowed to eat people? If it is placed in the world of Journey to the West, isn't it common for those demon countries established by shocking monsters to reverse order and the status of humans and animals?
Thinking of this, Duke shook his head. He felt that there was no need to think this way. He was human, and this alone was enough to explain his position.
Why bother to think from the perspective of a demon?
That's asking for trouble.
"You are the sufferer, how do you think this officer should punish this evil animal?"
In the end, Duke decided to carry forward the spirit of democracy and hand over the power of disposal to the people below.
"..."
"..."
Since the present dynasty, there has never been an official question about how the head of Guizhou should judge a case, at least it has never happened in Jinhua Mansion, so everyone is silent.
Even though they knew that this new government official behaved differently from ordinary people and was a good official, they still didn't speak up.
This... There must be concerns, but there is still no trace of more.
Just talk about the interrogation of demons?
During the reign of Captain Dragon and Tiger, there was no precedent for public trial of demons and goblins.
After a long time, Duke didn't want to wait any longer, and said again: "How about this, except for those criminals who have committed the most serious crimes, and the rest of the innocent people, let this evildoer pay for his crime with one life and one knife."
"Ninety-three lives, I will cut it ninety-three times. If this evil obstacle is still alive, let it follow behind me to protect the safety of one side, so as to wash away the sins, how about it?"
Executioners and executioners can deal with mundane things well, like refining the bones, but it is not good for the tiger demon who has opened up his intelligence. Even if he cuts the gap with the ghost head sword, he can't even cut its fur.
Blood can only be seen if Duke takes action himself.
"But according to the orders of the Lord."
"We are grateful Dade."
As he spoke, the common people knelt down one after another, with earnestness in their words, they were very pleased to be able to do this, even if they didn't call the tiger demon to punish him.
In fact, the vast majority of people even thought that it might be a blessing to have the eye-catching white-fronted tiger survive.
Of course, the premise is that it really keeps its promise in the future, realizes it, and protects one side.
When the time comes, why not build a temple for it?
"You may accept."
Duke looked sideways at the tiger demon. Although it seemed to be questioning, the tone of his voice was actually a statement.
Without any hesitation, the tiger demon uttered a sharp roar, not wanting to desperately, but spit out hundreds of souls, and said in a stern voice:
"In the past, I didn't know the laws of the world and killed you. Now that I have been taught by the Lord Fu Zun, I have just realized it. You can go to reincarnate after you talk to your relatives about the old days."
"Thank you, Mr. Fu Zun, for your rescue."
The ghosts saluted one after another, those with family members present said goodbye, and those without family members simply disappeared.
Dozens of vicious ghosts with fierce faces and full of evil spirits looked at the strangers around, not knowing what evil plans were in their hearts.
And Duke was not used to it, and said coldly:
"If you don't go to reincarnation now, you will go to the 18th floor of hell in the future, wash away your sins and then go to reincarnation."
After hearing this, the robbers didn't hesitate any longer, and dispersed in twos and threes between the sky and the earth.
After a while, all the ghosts disappeared, leaving behind the gathered Jinhua people and the tiger demon.
"In that case, I will execute the sentence."
Duke didn't draw out his personal sword, but with a casual move, a Yanling knife flew out from the subordinate's waist and came into his hand.
Seeing this, the tiger demon's uneasy heart calmed down a little, it bet rightly, the mansion lord didn't have to kill him.
Otherwise, why cut so many knives? Straight away.
In addition, the credit for voluntarily releasing the ghost to reincarnate is...
Just as he was thinking, a cold light flashed across.
Blood gushed out like a fountain.
Because it was too sudden, the people around did not react, and their faces were splashed with tiger blood.
"Roar……"
The tiger demon was suppressing the pain, afraid of making Duke feel unhappy, he really hit the nail on the head.
"First knife."
Duke's expressionless face made it hard to guess whether he intentionally let the tiger demon live, giving it a chance to redeem its sins, or tortured it deliberately.
"Second knife."
"Roar."
"The third knife...the fourth knife..."
The voice was unwavering and increasingly elusive.
But the hind leg was stabbed several times in a row, and the tiger demon still resisted the pain, waiting for the fate to come.
"Ho Ho Ho Ho... Ho..."
I don't know how long it has passed, and the people around are splashed with the blood of the tiger demon. Not only are they not afraid, but they are all full of energy. The waist and knee injuries caused by physical labor in the early years have also greatly improved.
Only the tiger demon inhaled less and exhaled more, and the qi was like a gossamer, as if it would not be able to survive the next moment, and its soul returned to the underworld.
"The ninety-third knife, the sentence is over."
The cold tone disappeared.
Duke inserted the Yanling Saber back into his waist.
The tiger demon paralyzed on the stands was filled with endless gratitude, and with a forced breath, he said:
"Please give me your name, sir."
"Um."
After pondering for a while, Duke thought of a certain robot cat at home, and replied:
"From now on, you will be called Fat Tiger."
