Chapter 592: Only One Life

"Boss..."

The constable wanted to say something, but Chi Yongchun's cousin had made up his mind and interrupted him without waiting for him to open his mouth: "Okay, stop talking. I won't get involved in this matter!"

At this moment, he was completely frightened by the cruel means used by Taoist Xuanqing. Both Cui Ji and the bodyguards Cui Ji brought to protect Zhu Xing's safety were killed tragically at the hands of Taoist Xuanqing, and they were frightened out of their wits.

When he was stopped by Taoist Xuanqing, he was still quite tough. He immediately knelt down in front of Taoist Xuanqing, begging him to let him go and trying his best to control the urge to urinate.

This is why I didn’t pee my pants!
Taoist Xuanqing called him to stop, and although he was held accountable for tipping off the informant, he did not kill him on the spot. Instead, he asked them to deal with the bodies in the yard. His heart, which had been in his throat, finally relaxed, and his face was filled with joy of surviving a calamity.

He didn't dare to think about it. If he experienced a similar thing again, and if Taoist Xuanqing didn't die at the hands of Zhu Xing, and knew that he was the one who tipped off, would Taoist Xuanqing still be magnanimous and not bother with him?

Even if the possibility was 99 percent, he would not dare to gamble.

Only at this moment did he completely understand the truth that 'we only have one life'.

Why did his parents repeatedly advise him to be kind to others and not to take advantage of his status as a constable and his cousin's background to do evil when he was hanging out with his cousin and became a constable in the yamen and earning a salary from the emperor? Why did they repeatedly advise him to be kind to others and not to take advantage of his status as a constable and his cousin's background to do evil?

He didn't know whether he could get close to Zhu Xing by tipping off, but he knew exactly what kind of person Zhu Xing was. If he didn't have any special skills, it would be impossible to get close to Zhu Xing by tipping off, but the possibility was very small. In comparison, he knew better the consequences of offending Taoist Xuanqing.

Cui Ji and the group of armored warriors he brought with him are living examples!
"You idiot, you didn't seize this great opportunity to get close to Master Zhu. I think you'll be a low-ranking constable for the rest of your life!"

The constable wanted to say something, but when he saw the appearance of Chi Yongchun's cousin, he cursed inwardly, rolled his eyes, and suddenly shouted. Seeing Chi Yongchun's cousin and another constable asking him what was wrong, he hurriedly explained:

"Boss, I have a stomachache. Maybe I ate something wrong. Can you guys help me clean up here? I'm going to the toilet first!"

"Go ahead, don't poop in your pants!"

Cousin Chi Yongchun waved his hands in disgust.

Not long after.

After the constable disappeared, another constable whispered, "Boss, he is obviously planning to sneak to the county town to tip off Mr. Zhu, why don't you stop him?"

"Stop it, how can I stop it? He has his own ideas and is motivated. If I stop him, won't I become his enemy?"

Chi Yongchun's cousin smiled. He had been a detective for a long time. His skills might still be average, but his eyesight was well-honed. He saw the flaw in the detective's exaggerated acting skills at a glance, but he didn't point it out. After all, everyone has their own aspirations. At least he was reminded by others. He changed his words and said:

"Why, don't you want to cling to the eldest son of the Zhu family?"

"Hold your thigh?"

Another constable heard this and smiled, as if he had thought of something. His face was full of sarcasm, and he said seriously:
"Boss, we all know who Master Zhu is. It's almost impossible to rely on tipping off to get close to him. Since I can't get close to him, why should I offend this Taoist? After all, this Taoist really dares to kill people!"

kill.

This was a major case among major cases. They were detectives. Logically, since they had witnessed Taoist Master Xuanqing slaughtering Cui Ji and his group, they should have brought Taoist Master Xuanqing to justice. However, the ability that Taoist Master Xuanqing had just displayed had completely frightened them. Even now, when they thought about it again, they felt their legs go weak and their whole body feel powerless.

Faced with this major case, even if it happened in their jurisdiction, they could only play dumb. Before anyone reported the case, they would pretend that it had never happened. Of course.

Even if someone really reports the case, they will just pretend. Even if they know that the real murderer is Taoist Master Xuanqing, they will pretend not to know. Even if the reporter produces evidence, they will carefully examine the authenticity of the evidence.

"You're right. Master Zhu, is someone that ordinary people like us can just cling to?"

Chi Yongchun's cousin smiled self-deprecatingly.

Not long ago.

He and his cousin had hoped to inform the eldest son of the Zhu family about the extermination of the Cui family. However, they had never expected that when they rushed to the Zhu family, not only did they not see the eldest son of the Zhu family, they could not even enter the main gate of the Zhu family. This shows how high the threshold to enter the Zhu family was.

a long time.

"Master, Master, Master!"

Shouts called out Taoist Xuanqing who was busy in the hall. Wang Pingan followed beside him, looking at the two respectful constables in the yard and the brand new yard. Not to mention the corpse, there was not even a trace of blood. However, there was a pile of cleaned armor piled up next to it. He secretly admired:
"You know what, if these two weren't detectives, they would be good cleaners. They might even become rich!"

of course.

He could understand why the two constables cleaned the yard so thoroughly. It was because they had his master's sword hanging over their heads. He believed that any normal person could do the same thing when their lives were in danger.

Taoist Xuanqing asked, "What's the matter with calling me over?"

"Master, we have cleaned the yard thoroughly. Do you have any other instructions?"

Chi Yongchun's cousin said with a flattering smile.

He secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He was still worried that when Taoist Xuanqing came out, he would see that the three constables suddenly became two constables and ask him where the missing constable had gone. He didn't know how to answer.

Should I report the truth or lie for the other party?

"Now that the yard has been cleaned up, I don't think you have the heart to attend Le Wenmao's funeral, so I won't keep you here. You can leave now!"

Taoist Priest Xuanqing ignored the two constables' awkward smiles and waved his hand. Just as the two constables were relieved and were about to leave, he suddenly called out to stop them. Chi Yongchun's cousin turned around, smiled flatteringly, and said humbly:

"Master, what else do you want?"

"I remember there were three of you. Where's the other one?"

As soon as Taoist Xuan Qing finished speaking, he saw Chi Yongchun's cousin looking embarrassed, as if he didn't know how to answer. The other constable lowered his head like an ostrich, not daring to look at him. Without waiting for Chi Yongchun's cousin to find a reason to explain, he smiled and said:

"Did he go to the county town to tip off the police?"
