Chapter 202 Good, Good, Good

Jiang He asked Chen Zhoumu to resolve the case, but he gave up on how to solve the case and did not explain the method.

Because the two had cooperated in the past, Chen Zhoumu had great trust in Jiang He's ability.

Although he was curious, he did not inquire into the details, but was full of expectations for tomorrow——

The case of the Bazhou Family has sufficient evidence and far-reaching influence. It should have been resolved as soon as possible. The reason why it has been delayed until now is entirely because he used his power as a state pastor to suppress it.

In recent days, not only rumors have spread in Bazhou, but also other states and regions are starting to stir up trouble.

Chen Zhoumu has been an official for many years, so he naturally knows that this is Buddhism's secret effort to force him to close the case as soon as possible.

But this is a conspiracy, and it’s useless to know.

Can he still silence Youyou?

As time goes by, he has become more and more difficult to get off. If he really closes the case in a hurry, he will leave someone to blame and be easily impeached.

Now that Xantian Buyi is helping me, I can finally sit back and relax.

He ordered the soldiers to inform all parties that the news that the case would be resolved in court tomorrow spread quickly.

The court-adjudicated cases during the Luo Dynasty were different from those in later generations, and were divided into two types.

The case of common people and the case of monks.

When ordinary people report a crime, it is relatively simple to handle, and a decision can usually be made on the same day. During this period, people in the city can watch the case being resolved nearby.

When it comes to the monk case, things are different.

The influence and destructive power of monks far exceed that of ordinary people, and they are mostly involved in major cases.

Coupled with the weakening of the imperial court's influence, monks from the most influential local sects were often invited to observe and collaborate in solving cases when the court was promoted.

This is even more true with the current case of the Bazhou Family.

Most of the wealthy families involved are inextricably linked to the local sects.

Even some of the upper echelons of the aristocratic families are powerful monks who hold important positions in the sect.

In this case, if the government wants to go to court to resolve the case, more forces need to be notified.

Buddhism, Taoism, Burning Equipment Sect, Banshan Sect...

One after another, the messenger birds flew across thousands of mountains and rivers and flew into the government office of the state capital. They were in an endless stream and did not stop for half a day. There were hundreds of birds paying homage to the phoenix!

Seeing this scene, not to mention Chen Zhoumu.

Even the skeleton Arhat who had arranged manpower to observe outside the government office at all times was shocked.

"The state government will open a court to resolve the case and inform all parties."

"If you accept the invitation, when the spiritual bird returns, it will stay on the eaves of the state capital..."

"It's only been half a day, and there are already more than 300 spiritual birds standing on the cornices... Where did so many people come from?!"

"Hiss... Is Gu Bai's reputation really that great?"

The Bone Arhat has been through the breakthrough for many years and has become a golden body, but now he feels a little toothache.

Not long ago, Chen Zhoumu also went to court for the case of the Bazhou family.

At that time, there were only about forty monks from various sects who came to the state capital, and most of them were in-laws from aristocratic families.

Now, the news of Buyi Xantian's arrival has spread, and the number of spiritual birds alone has exceeded 300...

I don’t know how many people will actually be present.

Is this the next stop at Prefecture Station? !

The Bone Arhat was originally sure of victory, but now he was a little panicked, and it took him a lot of effort to regain his concentration.

"It's okay. No matter how many people there are, they are only here for the name of common people patrolling the sky."

"Just like last time, more than 40 people came, but few really stood up and spoke."

"This matter involves a wide range of things, and not many people dare to speak out at the risk of offending my Buddhist sect and being implicated."

"What's more, the evidence is conclusive, so what's the use of them coming?"

Bone Arhat quickly convinced himself.

However, time came on the second day.

When he came to the state capital, he saw groups of monks from various sects chatting and laughing, and then looked at the few Arhats beside him.

Although the four Arhats are all sixth-level experts, their cultivation level exceeds 99% of the monks here.

But seeing so many people and thinking about the forces behind them, I was still a little frightened.

There are many Taoist and other top forces here. If they are closely united, even the Buddhist sect will have to stay away.

"No way, absolutely impossible."

The Bone Arhat shook his head slightly.

Gu Bai was just a commoner, not even a human being, just a spiritual beast.

In this world controlled by the human race, one will always be inferior to others.

Moreover, although it has a great reputation, all the authority it possesses comes from the [Tiantian Patrol Order], so it is just looked down upon.

For example, top forces such as the Taoist sect may give it some face because of their reputation.

But when the evidence is solid, we will not risk tarnishing our own reputation by siding with it.

"In the end, the case must be decided based on the evidence!"

"I, a Buddhist, have a complete set of evidence, what are you going to fight with me for?"

…

The auspicious moment has arrived, and the case is settled in court.

Although there are many monks coming to the Yamen, the state capital is not without ways to deal with them.

But when he saw Chen Zhou Muxing coming to his seat, he was startled and slapped the hall.

Accompanied by a crisp sound of "pop".

It seemed that the space was stretched. After a while, the interior of the lobby became extremely spacious, and there were many more seats on both sides, falling out of thin air in the form of stairs.

During the Meng Dynasty, there were still wonderful brushwork techniques that could create a painting space, not to mention the Luo Dynasty?

Not only do each sect have caves and caves in the mountains, but the Utensil Sect also inherits the Sumeru Dharma and incorporates it into utensils such as Xumi bags and other magical tools for holding objects.

The state capital used a similar method called Shengtang.

The monks from various sects had been waiting for a long time. When they saw that the hall had been ascended, they entered one after another. When hundreds of people were seated, it did not seem cramped at all.

The Bone Arhat, Qingchen Zhenjun, etc., representing the powerful monks of the Buddhist Taoist Sect, sat on the auxiliary seats on both sides of the Zhou Mu, responsible for cooperating to solve the case.

Jiang He, on the other hand, sat generously on the high seat next to Zhou Mu, representing the same status.

The Bone Arhat felt unhappy when he saw a mere spiritual beast whose status was half a head higher than his own, but he didn't say much.

Jiang He carries the imperial order of patrolling the sky, which can be regarded as the personal visit of the chief patrolling officer. He can be regarded as a person with half official status and cannot make mistakes.

I saw that all the monks had ascended to the hall and were seated.

Following the procedure, Chen Zhoumu explained the background of the case, then shot the scene and shouted.

"Send the suspect Gu's family to the court!"

The sound fell and the spiritual power spread.

In the open space in the lobby, figures appeared, but several suspects were forcibly moved here under the influence of magical techniques.

In addition to the head of the Gu family and several other senior officials, Gu Yuerong seemed to be among them.

The head of the Gu family looked tired, but he was also neat and tidy. He showed no signs of being tortured. When he appeared here, he bowed respectfully.

"The common people go to school and kowtow to the Lord."

Chen Zhoumu glanced at Jiang He next to him out of the corner of his eye. Seeing that he had no reaction, he cleared his throat and spoke sternly.

"Gu Jinxue, you, the Gu family, are suspected of murdering the refugees and selling them to the Li family in the name of relief... and you also ordered the white wolf to pretend to be a white fox, destroy the temple and kill the monks, it's too long to write down!"

"Is there any excuse?"

"grown ups!"

Gu Yuerong spoke out.

"Rescuing the refugees was done by women of the people, and it has nothing to do with the Gu family. There is absolutely no such thing as sending it to the Li family all year round in exchange for financial support."

"Those who were affected by the disaster in the past have been properly arranged and sent back to their hometowns..."

"If someone frames them, even if they can murder the victims, the traces of their lives will never be erased!"

"The civilian women's disaster relief work in Kunzhou has been seen by all, and there is no falsehood."

"As for the White Wolf destroying the temple, it is even more nonsense!"

"It was the monk from Dingshui Temple who gave the white wolf to me as a gift. The white wolf was less than one year old at that time."

"I raised him with my own hands, and later we even went out to study and traveled around the world together. This was also seen by many people. There is no lie!"

"How could such a young white wolf commit the crime of destroying temples and killing monks?"

Let me tell you one thing, it was indeed me.

Jiang He was sitting in the high seat and couldn't help but take a sip of tea.

Chen Zhoumu nodded slightly when he heard Gu Yuerong's excuse. The good name of Gu's daughter has been spread for a long time, and too many people have been helped by her.

It’s really hard to believe that the Buddha would blame someone for something like this.

However, Chen Zhoumu glanced out of the corner of his eye and found that Jiang He was still drinking tea and seemed to be in no hurry to speak.

On the contrary, Bone Arhat sneered.

"There is no need to say these empty words."

"If you want to defend yourself, show evidence."

Faced with the sneer of the Bone Arhat.

Gu Yuerong said.

"The people of Kunzhou have witnessed the incident of civilian girls rescuing the victims. If you don't believe it, you can investigate and collect evidence."

"What I am saying is that there is no evidence that your Gu family colluded with the Li family!"

The Bone Arhat sneered.

"No matter how stupid people are, they also know how to fake their reputation. If the Gu family steps on the wrong path, they will naturally act cautiously and try not to leave any behind."

"People in the world are stupid and don't realize that they are in a sea of ​​suffering. You, Gu, are a monk, so you can easily deceive those ignorant people...those mortals are not evidence at all."

"On the contrary, it was me who interrogated the Li family and found out from the Li family that the Gu family had colluded with him, and even had a hidden transaction list..."

"This is true evidence!"

"If you want to defend yourself, don't talk nonsense!"

"..."

Gu Yuerong was furious for a moment.

Mortals don’t count as evidence? How can there be such strong words!

But she couldn't argue.

Admittedly, she did not find the monks superior.

But the fact is that powerful monks can indeed use magic and magical methods to easily hide the eyes and ears of mortals and deceive them.

Facing the Bone Arhat's aggressive approach, she had no choice but to change her words.

"Where is the white wolf? I took it to Qinhai Sect to practice for several years. Many monks in the sect saw it with their own eyes. Can it be regarded as a witness?"

"Witnesses, what can they prove?"

The Bone Arhat's expression became even more playful.

"They can prove that you brought Bai Lang into practice, but can they also prove Bai Lang's age?"

"If what you are carrying is not the cub that was gifted back then, but an adult spiritual beast that has been practicing for hundreds or thousands of years..."

"As long as it is disguised, who will observe it seriously?"

"On the contrary, it was said by your servant himself that the white wolf in your family is too mature and cold, not like a young animal——"

"The surviving monks of Dingshui Temple recalled that the so-called white fox back then was indeed somewhat like a white wolf."

"You, Gu, are just using the name of a monk to gift a wolf to enslave a white wolf spiritual beast in recent years to clear your name!"

"..."

Gu Yuerong's face turned pale with anger.

How could this monk confuse right and wrong so much? !

But for a while, she couldn't think of any way to refute, let alone produce evidence to prove that Xiaobai was only seven years old at the time.

after all……

Xiaobai has been missing for more than ten years.

She traveled all over the world but could not find Xiaobai.

Most of it has encountered accidents and no longer exists in the world.

How could she get the evidence?

"Is there anything else you want to defend?"

The Bone Arhat picked up the teacup and moistened his throat.

He originally thought that the Gu family's daughter would become a variable in this case.

It seemed that he was too cautious and worried too much.

It's just a pity that the junior, who might have had the possibility of breaking through to the sixth level and becoming an Arhat, was ruined here.

"Since there is no evidence to prove my innocence, but the evidence of the crime is conclusive, let's just close the case."

"This is the second time that the case has been brought to court. Does Chen Zhoumu have to wait for another round?"

Bone Arhat urged.

But a voice sounded in the hall, which shocked him.

"Evidence, of course there is."

The Bone Arhat immediately looked at Jiang He, showing a trace of fear.

He knew that this guy couldn't just sit on the sidelines and now he was finally going to take action?

Hey, he would like to see how colorful this Xantian commoner is!

But Jiang He put down his tea cup and said calmly.

"I am the witness who can prove that the white wolf, the spiritual beast that Gu's daughter took in in the past, was only seven years old when the Dingshui Temple case occurred."

"..."

The Bone Arhat almost laughed out loud when he heard this.

Is this the level of Xuntian Commoner?

"Gu Xantian, I know that you have an affair with Gu's daughter, but this so-called evidence is too blunt!"

"How can you serve as a witness to prove that the white wolf, a spiritual beast that Gu's daughter took in in the past, is only seven years old?"

"Can it still be your cub?"

The Bone Arhat was originally meant to ridicule.

As a result, as he talked, he saw that Jiang He was still calm and calm, but his own voice became lower and lower.

Finally, his face darkened.

Damn it!

etc?

Gu Xuantian is a white wolf, a spiritual beast.

The spiritual beast raised by the Gu family is also a white wolf...

It couldn't be such a coincidence. That white wolf was the descendant of Gu Xuntian's unintentional bloodline, right? !

hiss……

Seems very reasonable.

Gu Xantian must be a miraculous spirit beast, and the children he gave birth to will most likely inherit part of his bloodline and be born as miraculous spirit beasts.

Therefore, it is normal for the Gu family to take him seriously and train him with all his strength.

Gu Xuntian was so close to the Gu family and came all the way to come to the rescue. Perhaps it was because of the white wolf that he loved Wujiwu.

"I have some connection with that white wolf, so I can't say more."

"As long as everyone knows what I say is true."

Jiang He spoke calmly.

The Bone Arhat's face was slightly darker.

So what if the white wolf is your cub?

There is no proof, even if it is true, it must be false!

However, Bone Arhat was about to retort.

Daomen Qingchen Zhenjun, who had been keeping quiet before and was drinking tea next to him, put down the tea cup in his hand and spoke with a smile.

"Of course I believe what Brother Gu said."

Zhenjun Qingchen seemed to have started.

The monks from various sects sitting around nodded and spoke.

"Yes, since Brother Gu has spoken, the white wolf must be seven years old."

"Can Gu Xantian still show favoritism?"

"I didn't expect there to be such a connection!"

"It seems that Buddhism misunderstood the Gu family in this matter."

"Buddhism still needs to find the real culprit!"

You say something, I say something.

In just a few words, the monks had directly concluded the case of the Water Temple.

Chen Zhoumu even made a final decision and summarized it.

"Since we have Brother Gu as a witness, we can confirm that the white wolf raised by Mr. Gu is only seven years old."

"In this case, destroying monks and destroying temples is naturally nonsense."

"You can kill a group of monks, including the fourth-level abbot, at the age of seven. Is there such a spiritual beast in the world?"

"This case should have nothing to do with Gu!"

"..."

There was no evidence, and Gu was cleared of suspicion with just one sentence?

Okay, okay, that’s what you’re doing, right? OK, OK, OK!

When the Bone Arhat saw that these people were colluding together and collaborating, he laughed angrily and said angrily.

"Even if Gu Xantian can prove that the spiritual beast White Wolf is only seven years old, he cannot prove that the Dingshui Temple case has nothing to do with the Gu family!"

"What's more, how do you explain the collusion between Gu and Li?"
