Chapter 430 The Target Is Locked, and the Next Step Is to Kill the Opponent at His Doorstep

"Report to the Lord, a merchant from the yamen reported that someone used the official silver without authorization!"

The report of the yamen runner cheered up Lord Shao An. It was only the second day, and the other party couldn't help it?

"Please ask Taoist Master Lu to come and listen." Lord Shao An hurriedly said.

The yamen runner immediately went to do it. Lu Xingshi was invited over with some speechlessness. He had to use the official power of Lord Shao An to track down the whereabouts of Huanxi Daxian, so it was not good to offend the other party.

The merchant was soon summoned up and told the inside story.

It turned out that Xu Yin, who was doing business in the herbal medicine shop in Heizhuer Lane, Guojun Bridge, came to him to purchase and used a large ingot of silver.

The quality of this silver was not ordinary silver at first glance. After another look, it was indeed marked with traces of being rubbed, and then he came to report to the authorities.

It is illegal to use official silver privately.

Lord Shao An summoned the manager of the warehouse and asked him to check the ingot of silver.

"My Lord, this ingot of silver is indeed the official silver lost in the treasury. Look here..." The steward immediately began to prove that he could not just talk without evidence, but had to produce real evidence.

"Go get an ingot, give it to him, and add another 100 taels of silver as a reward." Lord Shao An said.

The official silver is gone, but there is still silver for circulation. He reported to the government as soon as he encountered a problem. I don't know how much trouble he solved. I can't be stingy and give nothing.

Reimbursement of the other party's losses and reward, so there will be two after one, otherwise who will help you in the future.

The merchant naturally thanked him profusely.

"After getting the silver, go back quickly and don't spread it outside. If the news leaks out, I will be the first to punish you."

After giving the silver to the merchant, Lord Shao An also warned the merchant.

They haven't caught the person yet. If you spread the word everywhere and cause the person to run away, you will definitely be blamed.

"Don't worry, Lord, I promise to keep it a secret." The merchant hurriedly promised.

Although the merchant didn't know that the official silver in the warehouse was lost, he just thought that someone had secretly colluded with Qu Kuan, and now the Lord of the Mansion was going to clean it up.

As for keeping the merchant in the mansion temporarily, this is unrealistic.

First of all, it's a commotion. Once the loss of official silver is leaked, it will inevitably make the entire Shaoan Mansion uneasy.

It's best to minimize the impact.

After the merchant left, the Lord of Shaoan Mansion said to Lu Xingshi: "Master, why don't we go and see this Xu Yin together?"

Lu Xingshi didn't know Xu Yin at all, who knew what kind of monster he was.

"Well, I'll go with you." Lu Xingshi wanted to refuse, but seeing the other party's appearance, he finally agreed.

Just think of it as earning some merit.

The Lord of the Mansion quickly summoned three shifts of yamen runners, military guards in the city, and others, and headed towards Heizhuer Lane across the military bridge.

On the way, they learned about Xu Yin. He was a handsome young man.

But his parents were both dead, and he only had one master, who also passed away the year before last. He ran the shop alone and lived a decent life.

Recently, he had a romantic relationship and married a lady named Bai.

Since then, the two of them lived a more enjoyable life.

Lu Xingshi took another look and found that the lady named Bai was the white snake demon.

‘What the hell is the white lady imprisoned in Leifeng Pagoda forever…’ Lu Xingshi complained silently in his heart, and then he realized that although the green fish demon beside the white snake demon turned into a female body, the gender seemed to be male?

Probably because the boy looked like a girl.

Fortunately, in the feudal era, the love between men and women was not a big deal, and more importantly, the other party looked almost like a girl, so it was not a big problem for Xu Yin to use her.

This is still the best situation. I am afraid that the Green Fish Demon will help Xu Yin cultivate the White Snake Demon, and then it will be so green that Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf can be staged on the head.

Everyone soon arrived at Xu Yin's herbal medicine shop.

"My lords and officials, I wonder what can I do for you." Seeing a group of people coming over aggressively, Xu Yin naturally hurried out to greet them.

Two burly yamen runners carried Xu Yin into the shop, and several military guards closed the door after everyone entered the shop.

"Xu Yin, do you recognize this silver ingot?" Shao An Fujun took out the official silver handed over by the merchants and asked.

While Xu Yin looked at the silver ingot in Shao An Fujun's hand, he looked at the yamen runners and military guards searching and destroying his medicinal materials with heartache.

"Reporting to the lord, I have seen it. Today I used this ingot to buy goods. The shopkeeper Liao in the south can testify to this matter." Xu Yin felt wronged. He was upright and open, so why did he suffer such a disaster.

"Where did this silver ingot come from?" Shao An Fujun continued to ask.

"My wife brought it as a dowry, and she gave me goods to make a living." Xu Yin spoke directly.

"Then you know that this ingot is the official silver stolen from the government storehouse!" Shao Anfujun opened his mouth and scolded.

As soon as these words came out, Xu Yin was stunned, and his mind was blank: "I... I... I really don't know."

How could he know this? He had never seen official silver. How could he know it if it was not circulated and kept strictly? He only knew that this silver was of good quality and must have come from a wealthy family.

Unfortunately, his wife's previous husband who died before was a wealthy family in another government, so he married not only a widow, but a rich woman.

"Hehe, you didn't marry a Bai family lady, but a white snake demon."

"The personal maid you brought was a green fish demon." Shao Anfujun told the truth.

Xu Yin's eyes widened, his expression was filled with disbelief, and he was constantly feeling nauseous.

"This... What should I do?" Xu Yin was not a person with a fetish or abnormality, he was a normal person, how could he find a wife who was a human, not a snake or a fish.

"Oh, the herring was still male." Lu Xingshi added.

Then Xu Yin's face turned pale, thinking about the playfulness he had with male herrings, how sour and refreshing that feeling was.

"Sir, no." The yamen runners quickly searched Xu Yin's shop and did not find any other official silver.

"Master Lu, do you have any clues?" Shao Anfujun looked at Lu Xingshi. After all, it involved monsters, so it was appropriate to ask Lu Xingshi, a cultivator.

"What clues can I have? The victim is right here. You ask him if he has any clues." Lu Xingshi complained. He was not omnipotent, let alone Fat Ling Di Pang Pang, how could he know where it was.

What can be gained by asking Xu Yin without asking him?

"I know that my husband... Madam Bai has a big mansion in the north of the city. If it is true, it is hidden in that mansion." Xu Yin said hurriedly.

"Lead the way ahead. If the official silver is really found, you are also a victim, so we will not pursue it." Lord Shao An made a promise, saying that as long as the official silver is taken back, everything else can be turned a blind eye.

"Thank you Lord for your generosity." Xu Yin felt that he had escaped a disaster, otherwise if he really blamed him, how could he bear it.

As the saying goes, the people should not fight with the officials. He is just an ordinary citizen. If Lord Shao An really wants to use him as a scapegoat, then he has no way to resist.

Now that he can let him go, it is already very good. How can he dare to ask for anything else.

Lu Xingshi was thinking in his heart, this white snake demon is crazy, even if he wants to pretend to be rich, he won't take so much official silver, taking 1,800 taels is enough.

That's three million taels, which is not a small amount no matter where it is placed.

As for the claim that Lord Shao An deliberately lied about the amount of silver to settle accounts, it is also possible, but the possibility is not high. After all, the White Snake Demon and the Green Fish Demon coming here is just an accident, and it is not something he can control.

The official without the protection of the dynasty is just an ordinary person. How could he calculate the transformed demon?

"Lord, there are many doubts about this matter. Why did the demon steal the three million taels of silver if it is not greedy for money?"

"This matter may be..." Lu Xingshi thought of something. If so much silver is used, there is really a goal.

Happy Immortal.

Although the other party has become a fallen immortal, if you really want to say it, it should be regarded as a higher position of the evil way.

If silver is used as an auxiliary, it can make one's qualifications further when shaping the body.

"Did the Taoist priest think of something?" Lord Shao An asked.

"If nothing unexpected happens, Mrs. Bai is already pregnant." Lu Xingshi looked at Xu Yin.

Xu Yin was confused. Why didn't he know?

"Fuck, can you not be ambiguous when you say squeeze it dry?" Xu Yi cursed.

[Is there any problem with squeezing it into juice and eating it with skin and bones? ]

Looking at the answer of his sign-in system, Xu Yi was a little furious. Fortunately, he had signed in before and got a lot of things to eliminate demons. With the help of the sign-in system, Xu Yi fought with this big fox for several days and finally killed it.

"No problem, definitely no problem."

"Speaking of the world being in such a mess now, have fox spirits come to the door so openly?" Xu Yi could only ask the sign-in system.

[I'm offline, how can I know this, but the gods and immortals have all gone into seclusion, is there anything wrong with demons and ghosts entering the world to cause trouble? ]

"No, does the court have any departments such as the Demon Slaying Department and the Demon Suppression Guard, otherwise they will be eaten up completely." Xu Yi also felt the urgency at this moment.

[I don't know, I'm just a sign-in system, not an intelligence spy, you have to rely on yourself for this kind of thing]

What can the sign-in system do?

Xu Yi was thinking, it seems that he can't continue to lie down, there are more and more demons and monsters, he has to enter the Tao as soon as possible, otherwise, there is no guarantee at all if he has immortality without power.

Immortality does not mean that you will not die, but there is no upper limit to your life span. However, if you die from an accident, disease or murder, you will still die.

[Don't think too much, just sign in honestly. According to my many years of experience, auspicious numbers can always produce good things. Maybe you can sign in a method tomorrow]

"Then I'll thank you." Xu Yi knew that the sign-in system was comforting himself. In fact, since signing in for so many days, he has only got two good things, Tao Fruit·Immortality and Heaven and Earth Spirit Root·Peach Tree. The former is a novice benefit on the first day, which is not his luck.
