Mission accomplished!
Eye of Talent upgrading!
[Mission triggered: Subdue Zhong Kui!]
When Lin Xiu left the palace in a hurry.
The system notification sounded in his ears.
Eye of Talent?
Right, this skill was an additional skill when he opened the novice gift bag.
It was just that Lin Xiu had been busy solving cases and had not used it for a long time.
In the end, it had actually leveled up?
Interesting.
After asking, the system told Lin Xiu.
The Eye of Talent could check anyone's talent ability.
For example, personality, ability, potential, and so on. He could use this data to effectively identify them.
After upgrading his Innate Eye, he had the ability to read minds.
Hearing these words, Lin Xiu could not help but laugh.
If that was the case, wouldn't it save a lot of trouble in the future?
However, Lin Xiu didn't test the effects of the upgraded Eye of Talent on the streets.
Riding his horse, he hurriedly returned to the Judge Hall.
Yesterday night, Zhao Sheng, Li Si, and Meng Lang did not sleep much.
Lin Xiu was investigating a case in the Palace, but they couldn't help, so they couldn't help but feel worried.
When he saw Lin Xiu appear from afar.
The four of them quickly approached.
"Lord Marquis, are you alright?" Zhao Sheng asked worriedly.
Lin Xiu smiled and shook his head. Go, call all the bailiffs, even if I have to go to Zhongnan County!”
"To Zhongnan County? Why?" Li Si was dumbfounded.
Meng Lang, who was beside him, elbowed him hard.
"Wherever Daren asks you to go, just follow him. Why are there so many whys!”
Looking at the four of them bickering, Lin Xiu also smiled helplessly.
An hour later.
Lin Xiu brought the four great bailiffs of the Judge Hall and twenty to thirty bailiffs as they majestically headed out of the city.
Zhongnan County was not too far from Chang 'an.
If they walked quickly, they would arrive in less than half a day.
However, it had already been a morning. It was fine as long as they could reach the place in the afternoon.
If he missed this time, he would probably fail the mission…
Zhongnan County was not so much a county as a slightly larger village.
In the afternoon, after Lin Xiu and the others came over.
The folk customs here were simple and honest, far from being as lively and prosperous as Chang 'an.
However, everyone was busy.
When they appeared here, they attracted the attention of many local people.
"Go and ask where Zhong Kui's body is buried!”Lin Xiu said to Zhao Sheng beside him.
Zhao Sheng accepted the order and quickly walked towards the rest of the commoners. After a series of questions, he finally found out from an elderly man.
Zhong Kui was quite famous in the local area.
In his early years, he was also a famous talent in Zhongnan County.
Other than being a little ugly, he was proficient in both literature and martial arts. When he was in his hometown, he often helped the weak and difficult people. He was kind at heart.
When someone mentioned Zhong Kui, the old man couldn't help but reveal a trace of sadness in his eyes.
He shook his head repeatedly and sighed at the pity of his death.
"Milord, Zhong Kui is buried at the foot of Mount Zhongnan!”Zhao Sheng came back to report.
Lin Xiu nodded. Without another word, he directly rushed towards Mount Zhongnan.
The sun was slowly setting in the west.
The sky was illuminated by the burning clouds, which were red as if they were on fire.
When Lin Xiu brought people to the foot of Zhongnan Mountain.
He realized that this place was purely a messy graveyard.
There were ownerless graves everywhere, and there was grass that was half the height of a person growing on them.
Amongst the Chaotic Wind Mound, there was a grave that appeared extremely clean and tidy.
There was not even a single weed around.
Obviously, there were often people cleaning up here.
As Lin Xiu and the others brought people here, this news also spread throughout Zhongnan County.
Along with them were many commoners from Zhongnan County.
"Milord, this tomb is where Zhong Kui is!”Zhao Sheng said after asking the people.
They arrived in front of the clean grave.
Lin Xiu chuckled and said softly,""Zhong Kui, oh Zhong Kui, the heavens are right. You shouldn't die. Come on, dig this grave!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding commoners were all stunned.
"Really?"
"This, this is digging someone's grave!”
Lin Xiu ignored the discussions of the surrounding commoners.
Zhao Sheng and Li Si led a dozen bailiffs and quickly dug up the grave.
During this process, Lin Xiu was still a little strange.
One had to know that Zhong Kui had a younger sister in the legends.
After he became a judge, there was a story about Zhong Kui marrying his sister.
Why did such a thing happen here? Why did so many people in Zhongnan County come?
He didn't see Zhong Kui's sister?
"Sir, it's done!"
At this moment, Zhao Sheng hurriedly came over to report.
Lin Xiu looked into the pit. A pitch-black coffin was placed inside.
After so many years, there was actually no sign of decay. It was also very strange.
"What a sin!"
"How can you dig up someone's grave in broad daylight!”
"This is detrimental to Yin De!"
The surrounding commoners couldn't stand it anymore and started discussing non-stop.
However, Lin Xiu turned a deaf ear.
It was as if he had not heard anything. How could these ordinary people understand what he wanted to do?
Lin Xiu smiled and directly ordered,""Open the coffin!"
"What? Open the coffin?"
"This, this, this…they actually want to open the coffin?”
"How can this be? This is against the laws of nature!”
"Retribution, you will suffer retribution. Zhengnan has been dead for many years, and you still want to open the coffin? This, this was against the laws of nature!”
"He has been dead for so many years. What's there to see when you open it up?”
"Is this lord crazy?"
Whether or not those commoners knew Zhong Kui.
When he heard that the coffin was really going to be opened.
Everyone became furious.
"Milord…really, really want to open the coffin?”
Zhao Sheng, Li Si, and the others all looked troubled.
After all, it was a little unkind to dig up someone's grave. Now, they even had to open the coffin.
They really couldn't understand what Daren wanted to do.
Lin Xiu also did not tell them his intentions.
"Nonsense, I told you to open the coffin, so just do as I say. Why are you talking so much nonsense? Open the coffin!" Lin Xiu said angrily.
Hearing this, Zhao Sheng, Li Si, and the others.
He could only follow orders.
He went forward and pried open the coffin nail first.
The few of them worked together to push open the coffin lid.
However, the moment the coffin was opened.
Everyone who saw the situation inside was shocked.
Even the commoners who were watching seemed to be frightened.
"How, how is this possible?"
Everyone's expression changed in shock.
