Secret Dice Chapter 238

Chapter 238 Mr. Lu's intention

Hou Song was arrested, and the students were no longer in the mood to go out and have fun, and they all stayed in the camp and waited.

 After a long while, Liu Si finally came back and brought back two pieces of news.

 First of all, Hou Song is now locked up in the government prison and put on a breath lock. His vitality has been completely sealed, but he is not suffering any physical or physical pain and is locked in a clean single cell. After all, he is also the head of the sect branch, so the government still gives him some face.

 Second, Liu Si met Mr. Lu, who was the governor of the southwest and the highest official of Yunzhou City. The sects stationed in Yunzhou have to visit Mr. Lu frequently, and they all have connections. According to Mr. Lu, this case is very difficult to handle because the identity of the deceased is very important. Wu Jida is not only a great witch, but also the highest official of a large tribe in southern Xinjiang in Yunzhou. The people of southern Xinjiang have made it clear that they require the government to catch the murderer before the great witch is buried the day after tomorrow, otherwise the city of Yunzhou will pay the price.

This group of people in southern Xinjiang are tough and do not agree with the laws of the Central Plains. They can get along peacefully with each other in normal times. But now that such a big incident has happened, it is easy for them to take extreme actions. It will be a minor incident to cause riots. If you are in a hurry and release the poison in the city, you may end up in ruins.

 So Mr. Lu is in a dilemma now. While trying to appease the people in southern Xinjiang, he is also investigating the case. Not only Hou Song, but also all the suspects have been brought under control. As long as the guys who have had conflicts with Uquida in the past three years are now in prison...

Of course, this is only for people from the Central Plains. The people from Southern Xinjiang are on fire right now, so they don't dare to move.

“Although Mr. Lu didn't say it explicitly, he hinted at it in the end...” Liu Si said: “If the real culprit cannot be determined in the end, we can only hand over all the suspects to the people of southern Xinjiang to appease their anger.”

“After all, if the people in southern Xinjiang make trouble, I'm afraid hundreds of thousands of people in the city will be affected. If this matter can be solved with dozens of suspects, it will be cost-effective.”

"This is nonsense!" Lu Fei said angrily: "How could there be such a confused official!"

"It's just a different stance..." Li Xinyu shook his head: "From his point of view, calming the anger of the people in southern Xinjiang is the first priority, rather than finding the real culprit."

"Yunzhou City is no different from other places. It is considered an important border town. All forces are mixed together. The imperial court has deployed heavy troops to intimidate, and there are also many official experts stationed in charge." Liu Si added: "Every place has its own rules, and in Tongda Town , the government also has to look at the faces of Bainamen, but in Yunzhou, the imperial court is the boss, and all the sects stationed here have acquiesced in this situation, and it is reasonable to handle the case and arrest people. If Bainamen resists the court for this reason , other martial arts sects will not support it.”

"According to Senior Sister Liu, the other suspects may have had their families destroyed by Nawujida, or the least serious ones may have been bullied and occupied the land. At least they can be regarded as vengeful. In comparison, Master Hou's matter , is the least important."

"I also mentioned this to Mr. Lu..." Liu Si shook his head and sighed: "But he said that many people in southern Xinjiang saw the incident of Master Hou greeting the bride, so many people believed that he was suspicious, and he also It's hard to let people go…”

"We came from Cong Zongmen and brought a lot of treasures and silver. We really can't take care of them..." Tie Jinggang said: "Since there are many suspects, Hou Song is not the only one. Maybe we can save him..."

"What nonsense is this!" Xiao Tian gritted his teeth and said, "Just saying hello is the motive for killing? How about we go to rob the prison? What about the army? Let them have a taste of my iron claws."

"Don't be impulsive!" Tie Jingang stopped him: "[Wulin] The imperial court in the world is weak, and that is also for the entire Jianghu forces. After all, it is still the official force of this world. A skinny camel is bigger than a horse, so its size is there . You can think of the imperial court as the largest and most powerful sect in the world. It only spreads across the country and has little control over local areas. But if you really want to provoke it, except for those big sects with immortals in charge and tens of thousands of disciples. , the general sect's court can still handle it casually.”

 Everyone else frowned when they heard this. It was obvious that Mr. Lu was determined to kill him rather than let him go.

Luo Jun nodded: "It seems that this gentleman is not only not confused, but also very smart!"

"By the way, Senior Sister Liu..." Luo Jun suddenly spoke: "Except Senior Uncle Hou, who are the other suspects?"

Luo Jun frowned and said, "Besides you, is there anyone else who can plead with Mr. Lu?"

 Others looked at Luo Jun: "How do you say this?"

Liu Si shook his head: "Mr. Lu is a dignified governor, how can he be seen by anyone? Except for Uncle Hou, most of the other suspects are ordinary people. At most, they can only shout injustice at the yamen gate and be driven away by officials."

This guy spoke with indignation, but the corners of his mouth were still raised. It was obvious that he was more looking forward to fighting with the army than saving people...

Liu Si said: "They are all people who have enmity with Wujida... Hey, you don't know that this great wizard of Southern Xinjiang came to Yunzhou three years ago to take office. He is arrogant and domineering in the Southern Xinjiang area. He is just a blessing, and he often goes to the Central Plains people to cause trouble, oppress the people, and even kill people... However, due to his special status, the government is not able to investigate further, so many people actually hope that he will die..."

"Ordinary people don't have any background, and if they are arrested, they can deal with the consequences. Uncle Hou is the local talkmaker of Baina Men, and he can be considered a certain influential figure. Why take the risk of offending Baina Men and specially arrest him? "

 “Yes, why?” Everyone thought about it and felt strange.

"I guess this lord doesn't want to hand over all those people at all!" Luo Jun sighed: "Southern Xinjiang is putting pressure on everyone who has a grudge against Wujida. But Lord Lu knows that this Everyone inside should be innocent. After all, how can ordinary people assassinate such a big shot? "But if you don't surrender, you can't explain to the people in southern Xinjiang... So the only solution is to catch the real culprit and Provide conclusive evidence that can convince the people of Southern Xinjiang! So, this gentleman followed the clues provided by the people of Southern Xinjiang and arrested Master Hou in order to force us to help investigate this case!"

 Luo Jun sighed: "If he really thinks so, then no matter who he lets go, it's impossible to let Master Hou!"

Liu Si's eyes lit up when he heard this: "After what Ching Qi said, Mr. Lu did mention in the end that if the real culprit can be caught, he can be released!"

"Look at it this way, what Luo Jun said makes sense!" Tie Jingang nodded: "But how can Mr. Lu be sure that we can find out the real murderer?"

"I guess he has become a living doctor..." Luo Jun shrugged: "The government is definitely investigating with all their strength, but if there are martial arts sects with strong martial arts to help, the success rate of solving the case will definitely be much higher, especially for us Bainamen is famous for its various magical props. If other sects can join in, Master Lu will probably arrest people as well."

"Taking a step back, even if the case is not solved in the end, the result will be the same as now. Dozens of people will still be sacrificed in exchange for the peace and stability of Yunzhou City. Mr. Lu will not be at a loss..." As he spoke, Luo Jun touched his chin: "And I estimate that if he doesn't want to offend Bainamen, he might eventually find a way to get Master Hou out..."

 “So Uncle Master is not in danger?” Liu Si's face showed joy.

"It's just a possibility..." Luo Jun shook his head: "But we can't gamble with Uncle Master's safety..."

"What should we do now?" Tie Jingang looked at him. Unknowingly, everyone had begun to follow Luo Jun's train of thought, and his opinions were the main ones.

"Now we have three strategies: upper, middle and lower." Luo Jun said: "The best result is definitely to find the real culprit. This will not only calm the incident, but also make the government owe Bainamen a big favor. In the future, Master Hou's work here will be better Good to expand.”

"The best strategy is to secretly rescue Master Hou. It's best to use a body double as a scapegoat so that no one will notice. However, this will damage the reputation of Bainamen in the world, and Master Hou will not be able to show up here in the future. "

"The next best option is to directly rob the prison, or let the sect send out experts to put pressure. But this will break the relationship, and the branch in Yunzhou City will basically not be able to open in the future. It will also offend the imperial court, and may cause more trouble. What a hassle."

"There is no need to consider prison robbery..." Tie Jingang shook his head and said: "With the scale of Bainamen, if you want to scare the court, you must at least take action in the feathering realm. But without extremely special circumstances, feathering masters will not go to other worlds. Come."

 “Why?” Luo Jun asked.

"For any world, the birth of an immortal is a major event." Tie Jingang said frankly: "When the Ascension Realm comes to the world, it will definitely attract the attention of the local immortals, and it is likely to lead to unpredictable consequences. And the Ascension Realm in the main world We can't stay in this world forever, and we can't always be there if something happens, so we declare to the outside world that Bainamen only has its peak, not its emergence.”

Luo Jun nodded. He was curious before as to why the vacant head position was not given to the Yuanxiu Society's Yuhua Immortal. It turned out to be this reason.

"Let's do this, Liu Si, you go and communicate with Mr. Lu again and ask if you can let Bainamen help investigate the case..." Tie Jinggang said: "Normally, people from southern Xinjiang should not agree, but if If Lord Lu really has the same idea as Luo Jun speculates, then he will definitely try his best to negotiate with Southern Xinjiang to get us involved in the investigation! "

"Okay!" Liu Si nodded and said, "I'll go right away!"

"Wait!" Luo Jun stopped her and turned to look at Tie Jingang: "Uncle Tie, can I go with my senior sister? I want to go meet Mr. Lu, but even if I want to help, I can't do this Confused!"

 Tie Jinggang nodded: "Okay, I'll join you too..."

 “Then I'll go too!” The two people said in unison, it was Ling Xin and Lu Fei!

“Then I want to go too!” Xiao Tian also raised his hand.

"Take me with you too..." This time it was Lao Miaomiao. Lei Tianyang on the side also raised his hand and said: "Count me in..."

 Zhao Jian and Xu Yiming also planned to follow, and many other students raised their hands to join.

"We don't need so many people!" Tie Jingang waved his hand: "Just me and Liu Siluojun will be fine. Li Xinyu, you use the close mirror to report the matter to the sect and see what instructions there are from above. The others stay in the sect. On standby, waiting for dispatch at any time!”
