"Go and see."
Shen Lian rode his horse up the mountain, came to the secret room, and looked around.
The entire secret room was filled with a faint smell of blood, mixed with a musty smell, and the smell was extremely unpleasant.
The bluestone surface was mottled and covered with moldy and rotten debris. The door leaves had fallen down, one was broken into pieces, and the other was burned through. On top of it was a burnt skeleton. Probably because the temperature of the firewood was not very high, many bones were not completely turned into ashes.
The remaining bones are different from those of ordinary people, and some wing bones can be vaguely seen. It is undoubtedly the Bat King.
A small flag officer carefully shoveled up a pile of half-dried cow dung nearby and put it into a wooden box.
“Why is this cow dung?”
Behind Shen Lian, the Iron Mace Constable Yuwen Jing asked.
The captains of the first and second arrest teams were naturally also present in this encirclement and suppression operation.
"Commander-in-chief and two captains, there is a finger hole on this pile of cow dung, which can serve as evidence." The flag officer answered truthfully.
Yuwen Jing nodded.
The clerk saw this and took note.
"Report! Commander, we have confiscated a statue from the temple. The people suffering from the plague were worshiping and making wishes to this statue." After another report came, a small flag came running with a roll of paper.
"Unfold it and take a look." Yuwen Jing ordered.
The clerk hurried over and unfolded the statue together with Xiaoqi.
There is a man and an ox on it. They don't look very impressive. The man looks ordinary and the ox is not majestic. The man is wearing a mask. There are four big words next to him: Green Ox Immortal. The ink has just dried and the paper is wrinkled.
"What do you think?" Shen Lian asked.
Ji Chengliang, captain of the second arresting team, snorted coldly, "Another scumbag trying to amass merits for himself. He robbed his fellow thieves and destroyed the Bat King, and now he's subdued Cao Heizi and his gang of bandits."
"The portrait was made very carelessly. I don't know if it was intentional or impromptu. The traces of fighting at the scene are almost all from the Bat King. This so-called Green Bull Immortal left almost no trace. His strength should be much greater than that of the Bat King." Yuwen Jing also expressed his opinion.
Shen Lian remained silent, looked at the flag officer, and asked, "What's going on at the well?"
"Commander-in-chief, there is something strange about the water in that well. After the people drank from it, the sores on their bodies healed very quickly. It seems to be able to cure the plague. This is the water I drew from the well." After the flag officer finished speaking, he presented a wet water bag.
Shen Lian took it, opened the water bag and smelled it, a strange look flashed in his eyes.
After a pause, he said, "Let's wait for the news from the interrogation."
Then the water bag was passed to Yuwen Jing and Ji Chengliang. They smelled it and looked at each other, both puzzled.
The arrest team moved very quickly. After beheading four or five of the more than 20 bandits on the spot, they even confessed which finger they used to pick their noses.
After a while, a sketch of the Green Ox Immortal was presented to the three people.
Shen Lian and Yuwen Jing fell silent.
Ji Chengliang's mouth twitched as he asked, "Isn't this Tu Baishou's apprentice, Wei Wu?"
……
"Brother Wu, Qin He is becoming increasingly unruly. Last night he was absent from duty all night, and today he's causing trouble again. He's gathered a bunch of cremators and a wild monk to argue, disrupting the entire camp."
As the sun was setting, Wei Wu, who had just returned to the temporary crematorium, heard a report from his cousin Wei Yuanji.
Wei Wu's face darkened. He didn't like Qin He. Qin He had been acting strangely in the crematorium. Later, after Tu Baishou personally awarded him a copper coin, he disliked him even more.
This guy was playful, greasy and prickly. When other cremators saw him, they looked at him with awe and admiration, but Qin He looked at him as if he was looking at some kind of animal.
"Go call him and Xu Changshou over to me. You really think I can't deal with you, right? The East City Army doesn't dare to deal with you, but there is no such taboo in my Corpse Cremation Hall." Wei Wu slammed the table, furious.
"This time we have to teach him a lesson."
Wei Yuanji sneered. Since Wei Wu disliked someone, he would naturally dislike him as well since they were the same people.
Just as I was about to go out, a group of people came in.
The leader had a square face and a beard, and it was Chang Wen, also known as Captain Chang, from the Second Arrest Team.
A group of people came in without saying hello, wearing armor and holding weapons, with unfriendly looks in their eyes.
"Captain Chang? How... do you have time to come to me?" Wei Wu quickly stood up and greeted him, feeling something was wrong.
Chang Wen tried to make his expression look gentler and said with a smile, "Nothing serious. I just want to ask General Wei about something."
"Okay, I will tell you everything I know. Just ask." Wei Wu nodded.
Chang Wen considered it for a moment: "Well, we might need to change places."
"what?"
……
Half an hour later, in a dark hut.
Wei Wu was tied to a stool with his hands and feet shackled. The bronze mirrors opposite him reflected the firelight, making it almost impossible for him to open his eyes.
His face was extremely dark. He gritted his teeth, raised the shackles on his hands and said excitedly: "Chang Wen, what do you mean?"
"Don't get excited, General Wei. I am just following orders to do my routine work. I hope you can cooperate." Chang Wen's face was hidden in the darkness behind the bronze mirror, leaving only a vague outline.
"Have I ever been uncooperative from the beginning to the end? We are all from Feiyu Guard. Just ask whatever you want to know. Is it necessary to be like this?" Wei Wu gritted his teeth.
"General Wei, please be patient. This is just a procedure and doesn't mean anything. Please cooperate." Chang Wen's tone was calm and unhurried.
Wei Wu felt like he had punched cotton. He lost his temper, took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said, "Okay, ask."
"Then let's officially begin."
Chang Wen moved the paper and pen from the corner of the table to his front, picked up the pen and looked at Wei Wu: "Name."
Wei Wu: “…”
Name?
Three generations of the Wei and Chang families have all worked in Feiyuwei.
The two families have been friends for generations and can be considered relatives. Are you asking for their names?
The evil fire that Wei Wu had just suppressed suddenly surfaced: "Chang Wen, don't go too far. My Corpse Cremation Hall is not afraid of your arrest team. Let's have a face-to-face fight and see who is afraid of who!"
"General Wei, Chang has already emphasized that this is just the inquiry process, don't get excited." Chang Wen's voice was still slow and he looked very patient.
Wei Wu patted his chest vigorously, suppressing his anger again. He pointed at Chang Wen and said, "Okay, the process, you ask. I'm upright and honest, I'm not afraid of anything. If you dare to play any tricks, I, the Corpse Cremation Hall, will not be a pushover."
"Name."
"Wei Wu."
"age."
"24."
"gender."
"Do you...do I look like a female to you?"
"Please answer truthfully."
"Male!"
"The expression is unclear. You should say, male."
"Can I ask you something you don't know? Are these questions interesting?"
"Did you leave the makeshift crematorium last night?"
"No, I was at the makeshift crematorium camp all night."
"Where exactly?"
"tent."
"Never been out?"
"A few nights ago."
"several times?"
"Six times."
"That's a bit too much. What's the reason? Is your kidney not in good condition?"
"This is none of your business! Can't I drink too much tea?"
"When did you get up six times?"
"What's wrong with you that I remember that?"
"You'd better remember that it will do you no good to have doubts about the inquiry process. The problem you are facing now is quite serious." Chang Wen's eyes were dim and shining.
"It's the process again. Is this the process designed by that idiot?" Wei Wu asked through gritting his teeth.
"This process was designed by Commander Shen himself. Do you have any questions?"
Wei Wu suddenly sat up straight: "..."
For the next half hour, Wei Wu was almost going crazy under the pressure of Chang Wen's extremely trivial questions.
"One last question, do you have any particular fetish for cow dung?"
"You damn Chang Wen! A gentleman can be killed but not humiliated. I'm going to fight you to the death!!"
Wei Wu completely exploded, roaring and rushing towards Chang Wen with a chair.
