The ugly hour is about to pass.
Chang 'an, Judge Hall.
Zhao Sheng, Li Si, and Meng Lang were outside Lin Xiu's study.
They had been guarding for more than six hours.
Lin Xiu's physical body was still there, sitting on the stool. His hands formed a seal, and his eyes were closed.
However, at this moment.
A gust of cold wind blew past.
Zhao Sheng and Li Si came back to their senses and hurriedly walked into the study.
Then, he saw Lin Xiu stretch his back and shake his somewhat sore neck from left to right.
"Sir, you're back?"
Zhao Sheng and Li Si were overjoyed.
One had to know that Lin Xiuzi had left at that time, and it was still the darkest hour now. A full two hours had passed.
If Lin Xiu still couldn't come back by the time it was noon, then the day would be bright.
Lin Xiu smiled and nodded." I've run into a little trouble. What time is it now?"”
"Milord, it's already the ugly time!”Zhao Sheng quickly said.
"Ugly times? It's already past two o'clock. Hurry up and go to the court. I want to try the case overnight!”Lin Xiu said.
"Ah?"
Zhao Sheng and Li Si were shocked.
Ascension? Trial?
Interrogate who? No one reported it here…
However, they naturally did not dare to disobey Lin Xiu's words. They hurriedly summoned all the bailiffs in the yamen and ran to the front yamen to make preparations.
At this moment, Evil Judge Wu Dian and Ghost Reaper Zhang Qing.
All of them were escorted back.
Li Yuanba, the Eighteen Cavalry of Yan Yun, and Liu Zhuang were also here.
"Bring these three people to the front office. This official will come to judge them later!”Lin Xiu said.
"Yes, sir!"
Li Yuanba commanded the eighteen cavalry of Yan Yun to escort Wu Dian and Zhang Qing to the front yamen.
At this moment, in the hall of the yamen.
Two groups of bailiffs were standing in line, holding the Merciless Water and Fire Staff in their hands, and beside them were three guillotine knives: Dog, Tiger, and Dragon.
Zhao Sheng and Li Si stood on the left, while Wang Fen and Meng Lang stood on the right.
At this moment, the two bailiffs were very strange.
In the middle of the night, the adults did not sleep and wanted to go to the court to interrogate.
So be it.
But where were the plaintiffs and the accused? There was no sound of drums beating or injustice. What was going on?
Could it be that…another ghost had come to complain?
Just as he thought of this, he felt a cold wind blow past him.
Everyone, including Zhao Sheng, Li Si, and the others, shivered.
Among the people present, they could be considered as people who had seen big scenes. Ever since they came to work here, they had also solved a few strange cases by Lin Xiu's side.
However, the Yin wind tonight seemed to be much colder than usual.
It was no wonder. After all, the people who were being escorted here this time were the dignified Evil Judge of the Netherworld and a ghost officer.
Of course, they couldn't see any of this.
After a while, Lin Xiu walked out wearing his official robe and official hat.
Sitting in the main hall, he stared sharply at the hall below.
Pa!
"Are the people kneeling in front of me Wu Dian, Zhang Qing, and Liu Zhuang?" he shouted coldly.”
Zhang Qing and Liu Zhuang nodded.
As for Hall Master Wu, his head hung low as he knelt there with a look of despair.
He knew that if he fell into Lin Xiu's hands tonight, his crime would probably be hard to erase. He was a dignified judge of the underworld.
He is in charge of people's negative karma and can cut off people's karma.
Now, he had actually fallen into such a situation.
It was really a mistake. Even though he was regretful now.
However, what was done was done, so how could he change it?
Moreover, in the netherworld, Lin Xiu was famous for being impartial and merciless…
"Zhang Qing, as a ghost officer, you conspired with the people of the Yang Realm to accept bribes and do that illegal thing. Do you know your crime?”Lin Xiu asked.
Zhang Qing was frightened.
His face was covered in bruises.
He had been beaten up by the eighteen riders of Yan Yun and Li Yuanba in the Underworld Judge Hall.
If it wasn't for Lin Xiu's request to spare his life.
The current Zhang Qing had probably been beaten to death.
The lingering fear in his heart had not disappeared, so he naturally did not dare to play any tricks.
"Reporting to Lord Judge, I admit my crimes, I admit my crimes!”Zhang Qing repeatedly kowtowed.
"Since you know your sins, you can tell me what happened back then!”
As he finished speaking, Zhang Qing recalled how he had accepted bribes and how he had deceived Hall Master Wu.
He sealed Liu Zhuang's soul in the Golden Toad's body.
Zhang Qing thought that after three to five years.
After releasing Liu Zhuang from the golden toad's body, this matter would pass without anyone knowing.
Who would have thought that Liu Zhuang's resentment was too great?
It had only been a year, and the matter had already been exposed.
He had actually cultivated this small path with the help of the golden toad's body.
He would kill all the people who had caused his death back then.
Only then did the matter come to light.
After hearing the entire process of this matter, Lin Xiu also sneered and shook his head.
"As the saying goes, the heavens are long and wide. Now, I believe in a saying that money can make the devil turn the millstone. Zhang Qing, as a ghost officer, you actually broke the law, accepted bribes, and harmed others. Your crime is unforgivable. You are also an official of the underworld. Today, I will push you into the tiger head chop and ask for execution!”Lin Xiu said coldly.
" Lord, please spare my life! Lord, please spare my life…"
"You have disgraced your duty and disobeyed your orders. I won't spare you!”
As soon as he finished speaking, two people from the Yan Cavalry stepped forward and picked up Reaper Zhang Qing from the ground.
Then, they arrived in front of the Tiger Head Chopper.
The bailiffs at the side watched helplessly as the Tiger Head Chopper lifted itself up.
In an instant, they seemed to hear a mournful cry for mercy coming from under the tiger head chopper.
Lin Xiu's expression was solemn, and his eyes were bright. He took the fire stick and threw it on the ground.
"Open!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Tiger Head Chopper suddenly fell.
Instantly, a huge wave of Yin energy spread out from all directions.
The begging just now disappeared.
But Lin Xiu saw that after that reapers Zhang Qing was chopped down by the guillotine, he directly ended up with his soul scattered.
His gaze changed as he looked at the kneeling Hall Master Wu.
"As the judge of the underworld, you didn't do your job properly and actually did such evil deeds. Now that there are witnesses, what else do you have to say?”Lin Xiu said.
Wu Dian lowered his head and looked weak.
"I have nothing to say!"
"Alright, come on, push it into the Tiger Head Chopper!”
As soon as he finished speaking, two more Yan cavalry stepped forward, picked up Wu Dian and left.
He placed it at the Tiger Head Chopper.
"Open the guillotine!"
Puchi!
To think that he was the judge in charge of evil, but because of his negligence, he believed Zhang Qing's words.
In the end, he ended up with his soul scattered.
Lin Xiu shook his head and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Whether it was a human or a ghost, as long as they violated the cardinal guides and the law.
In the end, they would have to suffer that knife.
Judge Wu Dian had great power and could have enjoyed his life in the netherworld…
"Ghost Liu Zhuang, although you have been wronged and killed four people in vain, considering his desire for revenge, the death penalty can be spared, but the crime cannot be forgiven. Return to the underworld and suffer ten years of torture before you can enter the reincarnation cycle.”Lin Xiu said.
Liu Zhuang shed tears of gratitude and kowtowed repeatedly on the ground.
"Thank you, Lord Judge!"
Lin Xiu did not continue to stay. Instead, he stood up and walked towards the back of the yamen.
After a while, he said softly,"Leave!"
