False evidence

Chapter 258 The Way of the Man
I told Lu Daoren to go to the nearest police station and that the police would give him clothes to wear.

Helpless, Master Lü had no choice but to slip on his slippers and go downstairs.

Once outside the residential area, there were hardly any people on the streets.

Master Lü asked me, "Brother, what exactly do you do for a living?"

I said, "I'm practically a colleague; I also understand Taoist arts."

Master Lü chuckled dryly, "No wonder."

Xiao Shen cursed, "No wonder you're a damn fool! There are plenty of swindlers in the world who cheat people out of money and sex, but a bastard like you is a rare find!"

Master Lü didn't argue with him, but instead tried to get closer to me, saying, "Since we're both from the same Taoist sect, brother, please let me off the hook. If you forgive me this time, I'll remember your kindness and promise never to try anything with your sister again!"

I said, "No way. If I hadn't been helping my sister move, she would have already been violated by you. I actually hate you. But we're both from the same Taoist sect, so I'll let it go this time. But a small punishment is necessary to serve as a warning."

Undeterred, Master Lü whispered to me:

"You know the land of black sweets, but do you know how to make it? Here's what we'll do: let me go this time, and I'll give you the recipe, okay? It's a really good stuff!"

I smiled and shook my head slightly: "Keep the recipe for yourself."

Before he could say anything more, I asked him, "Didn't you ever think about how I knew you would do something to my sister?"

Master Lü said, "What's there to think about? You saw the mirror that was hanging on my door before and felt uncomfortable, so you asked around about me. Laymen might not notice anything, but fellow practitioners know it all."

Xiao Shen San couldn't help but curse again: "They say a rabbit doesn't eat the grass near its burrow, but you, you motherfucker, eat the grass right next to your burrow! Looks like you've caused a lot of trouble for the neighbors."

Lu Daoren shamelessly said, "You're still young and don't understand the benefits of women. You'll understand when you grow up. Hehe, different women feel different."

Xiao Shen asked three times, "Aren't you afraid of retribution for doing so many immoral things?"

Master Lü scoffed, "I've only done this twice. I've been holding back for a while, and I just couldn't hold it in any longer. Besides, your mother..."

"Your mother!"

"Hehe, you don't usually see such a beautiful woman!"

Lu Daoren chuckled and said, "I know I can't do this kind of thing too often, or I'll end up like this sooner or later. Usually, it's those women who come to me to perform rituals and exorcise evil spirits. I only do it if they take a liking to me... hehe, they brought it on themselves."

"Women are indeed good."

I nodded. "I don't care if you play around with women, but I can't forgive you for killing Han Ning!"

Lu Daoren's smile froze on his face, and he abruptly stopped in his tracks. "How did you know? Who exactly are you?"

I said coldly, "You killed Han Ning because six months ago, she stopped you from harming the woman surnamed Su upstairs. You held a grudge against her and drugged her with a drug called 'Sweet Dreams,' which is why she froze to death."

"How do you know about this?" Master Lü said, backing away.

I asked, "Doesn't this place look familiar?"

Master Lü looked around in astonishment and exclaimed, "Why is it here? I definitely didn't take this path!"

Xiao Shen said coldly, "You call yourself a Taoist priest, yet you don't even know what it means to be blinded by a ghost?"

"Being blinded by ghosts!" Master Lü was even more horrified.

Xiao Shen said, "You don't have a Taoist robe or any magical artifacts right now. If you really see a ghost, then it depends on how powerful you are! I also have to remind you, the 'good friend' behind you hasn't reached the end of its lifespan!"

Lu Daoren shuddered violently, stopped his retreat, and stiffly turned his head to look back, immediately seeing Liang Kaiyuan's pale face.

"What do you want?"

I took out my phone: "I want you to tell me yourself how you killed Han Ning?"

Master Lü said, "Ha, if I admit to murder, won't I still die?"

"You'll die whether you admit it or not." I turned my head to look at the trash cans behind him. "Han Ning froze to death here, didn't he?"

Lu Daoren suddenly grinned maliciously, "That little mute girl made me lose the duck that was almost in my mouth! I wanted to kill her whenever I saw her! But she froze to death, it has nothing to do with me! You wouldn't be thinking of killing someone, would you? That's a capital offense!"

"Murder? I don't think this is my first time."

I put away my phone and took the iron fan out of my bag.

Little Shen San was also eager to get started, "Third Master isn't without blood on his hands either!"

When Master Lü saw that we were really going to make a move, he turned around and ran away.

But he hadn't run two steps before he fell in the snow.

He got up and ran again, only to fall down again.

After several repetitions, Xiao Shen burst into laughter: "You fake Taoist priest, haven't you ever seen a ghost blocking your vision, or heard of a ghost tripping you up?"

Liang Kaiyuan followed closely behind Lü Daoren.

He also deeply hated Lu Daoren's evil deeds, and at this moment, his resentment was overwhelming, making it difficult for Lu Daoren to escape.

Lu Daoren tried several hand seals, but none of them had any effect on him.

Seeing me slowly walking forward, Master Lü gave up struggling, suddenly jumped up, and pulled a thin metal tube from his waist.

Xiao Shen got even more excited: "Hey, are they going to risk their lives like this!"

I grabbed him and stopped him, saying to Master Lü, "Do you know why I don't want your formula? It's because the real formula is in my hands."

A pure, dark brown sweetness, after a brief period, dissipates without tainting anything. If it's not pure… well, like the dark brown sweetness you've prepared, it will retain some lingering flavor.

"Don't you dare talk nonsense to me!" Lu Daoren cursed.

“This is not nonsense.”

I smiled at him: "You've probably used that blowpipe more than once, haven't you? Why don't you smell it? Does it have a fragrance?"

Lu Daoren let out a sinister laugh: "Stop talking nonsense! If you want to fight, then fight! After I kill you two, I'll go back and give that woman..."

"Then do it!"

I took a step forward, carrying the iron fan.

Immediately, Master Lü gripped the blowpipe like a dagger and held it to his ear.

The next second, he collapsed next to the trash can like a dead dog.

Xiao Shen chuckled, "They really dare to use any underhanded trick, even faking their death..."

"Shh!"

I gestured for him to be quiet, and looking at the motionless Taoist priest, I whispered:
"Let him get a good night's sleep."

I looked at Liang Kaiyuan.

Liang Kaiyuan said, "I'll stay here and watch over him. Even if he wakes up, he won't be able to leave the garbage dump."

I nodded and turned to walk back.

Xiao Shen San followed beside me, "Oh, I see, so his low-class blowpipe really does have the taste of the land of black sweetness left."

“Yes, he knows it himself. But he seems to have forgotten that the Nether Worm Amber is in my hands.” I stretched out my arms and said, “I just checked my phone, and the temperature tonight is going to drop to -6 degrees Celsius. I wonder if that will freeze someone to death.”

Xiao Shen grinned broadly and said, "Absolutely! In our Northeast, there's an unwritten rule: if someone gets drunk, it's not enough to just take them home; you have to take them inside and put them on their kang (heated brick bed). Because plenty of people have frozen to death at their doorsteps while drunk!"
