The Glorious Summoner



313 Five-sun realm

If the spirit world was behind the huge golden arch, then was the spirit world the world that the White bamboo priest had mentioned, the world that people experienced in their dreams, the world that was formed by their souls?

Did the dream demon’s strange ability also come from this?

Xia ping ‘an looked at the golden arch in the middle of the hall, and countless questions appeared in his mind.

However, how could he reach the so-called spirit world?

Just as these questions appeared, Xia Pingan found himself standing in the spirit world temple in the next second.

Xia Pingan looked at his hands and feet and was stunned. In the past, he could only use his consciousness to enter the secret mandala, but this spirit world shrine was like the world in the realm Pearl, allowing him to condense his own spirit body here.

Xia ping ‘an could feel that his body was still sitting cross-legged in the secret chamber with his eyes closed, but the feeling of this spirit body was no different from that of his body.

The huge golden arch was right beside him. It was majestic and imposing. It was like a bridge that stretched across the entire Hall.

The colorful dense fog was rolling behind the golden arch door. The 18 relief embossed on the arch door were vivid. It seemed that there was a mysterious world behind the dense fog, which could be crossed by one step.

Xia Pingan stood in front of the golden arch and pondered for a moment. In the end, he resisted the urge to step in.

In the next second, Xia Pingan’s consciousness left the secret mandala and opened his eyes in the secret chamber.

He was 12 points away from advancing to the five-sun realm. Once he reached the five-sun realm, his strength would increase by a large margin. It would not be too late to cross the golden arch after fusing with another realm Pearl. Sharpening a knife would not delay the work of cutting wood. A few minutes would not make a difference.

As she thought about this, Xia Pingan looked at the remaining four realm beads in the box in front of her that had not yet fused. She picked up one of the realm beads from the ‘Xun Rong occupied dream’, pricked her finger, and dripped her blood to fuse it.

The remaining few Dream Master realm beads did not have spiritual will crystals, so no one could fuse with them.

……

Xia ping ‘an opened his eyes and found himself sitting upright in the court. In the court, a group of bailiffs and officials stood on both sides, looking at him carefully, not daring to breathe loudly. On the public table in front of him, there were many official documents and files.

Yi Rong, also known as Bo Xiu, was a famous official of the former Qin imperial clan, the son of Emperor wenhuan’s formidable character, the younger brother of Emperor xuanzhao’s Fu Jian, and the nephew of Emperor Jingming’s Fu Jian. Just by looking at these three identities, one could understand why these people in the court were so submissive in front of him.

At this moment, an official in a date red official’s uniform came to the court. He had many documents in his hand and respectfully placed them on the court table in front of Xia Pingan.

“Lord Si Li, these are the case files of all the prisoners in the capital governor’s prison. Please check them!” After saying that, the official drooped his hands and stood aside, not daring to say anything more.

Yi Rong’s current official position was the former captain of the Qin capital’s capital governor’s manor. The captain’s position was extremely high, and he was responsible for supervising the entire capital governor’s manor and the surrounding officials.

It was the duty of the Commandant to check the files of prisoners in the prison and see if there were any officials who had abused the law or wronged the common people during the trial of the death row prisoners.

As Xia Pingan recalled nie Rong’s life story, she opened the case files and began to read them one by one.

There were many things about Lin Rong’s life, but when it came to the dream-occupying part of his life, there was only one. Lin Rong had relied on the dream-occupying part to solve a Strange Case, which was also recorded in history. Compared to Yi Rong and Zhan Meng’s methods of solving cases, all the detective skills of the later generations added together were weak.

Xia Pingan flipped through the dossiers. After a while, he finally found a name in the dossiers-Dong Feng.

Xia ping ‘an took out the file and read it again. Then, he asked the official in charge of the capital governor’s office, ” Lord Liu, what’s the matter with Dong Feng’s case? ”

Seeing Xia ping ‘an take out Dong Feng’s file, the capital governor’s magistrate, who was standing at the side, calmed his mind. He cupped his hands and replied, ” my Lord, Dong Feng killed his wife and was sent to the capital governor’s estate by his wife’s brother. After interrogation, Dong Feng has confessed, so I sentence him to death. He will be beheaded after interrogation.

“Oh, is that so? according to the file, Dong Feng went abroad to study for three years. He killed his wife on the night he came back. Moreover, Dong Feng’s motive for killing his wife was unknown. He couldn’t even explain it clearly himself. He only said it was an argument. This matter is a bit strange. Bring Dong Feng here. I want to interrogate him personally!”

Xia ping ‘an wanted to interrogate him personally, but none of the officials in the capital governor’s manor dared to say no. They could only obediently bring Dong Feng, who was in the prison, to the hall.

After a while, a man in his thirties, who was wearing a prisoner’s uniform, staggered and had a face full of stubble and waxen skin, was brought to the hall. He was pressed to kneel on the ground by the bailiff.

As soon as the man saw Xia Pingan, who was sitting high up in the hall, and the official uniform of a Commandant on Xia Pingan’s body and the officials of the capital governor’s office standing on both sides of the hall, his turbid and listless eyes suddenly brightened. He immediately cried out and kowtowed as if he was pounding his head, ” Your Excellency, I’m innocent, I’m innocent!

This man had been studying abroad for three years, so he had both courage and knowledge. He knew what Lin Rong did for a living, so he quickly seized the opportunity to cry out his grievances.

Seeing this man cry out for injustice, the faces of the officials standing on both sides of the hall turned ugly as they glared at the man.

“Are you Dong Feng?” Xia Pingan asked calmly.

“I’m dong Feng!”

“What injustice do you have?”

“I didn’t kill my wife!” Dong Feng said loudly.

“But you’ve already confessed in this file?”

“That’s because they confessed under torture. I can’t bear the torture, so I confessed!”

When Dong Feng said this, the face of the capital’s magistrate in the court turned green. He hurriedly stepped forward and explained, ” reporting to Your Excellency, this person has committed the crime of murder. His crime is unforgivable. According to the usual practice, after such a fierce and stubborn person is sent here, it is not impossible to use torture to interrogate him!

Lord Liu, there’s no need to be nervous. There’s nothing wrong with using torture to interrogate a fierce and stubborn person. I have my own limits!

Hearing Xia ping ‘an’s reasonable words, the capital Governor wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and took a step back without saying anything more. This official was from the royal family, a powerful figure that he didn’t even want to be King anle when Emperor Jingming conferred him the title of King anle. As a small capital Governor, he couldn’t afford to offend him, so he could only carefully accompany him.

“You said you didn’t kill your wife, do you have any proof?” Xia Pingan asked Dong Feng.

Dong Feng’s face turned ashen, ” I shook my head. I don’t have any proof. When I returned home that day, I only slept for one night. When I woke up the next day, my wife was killed and I was sent to the government office? ”

“You didn’t see the murderer either?”

“No, I didn’t!”

“Does your wife have any grudges with anyone?”

“I’ve been away from home for three years, and I don’t know if my wife has any grudges with anyone!”

The capital governor’s magistrate stood up again and explained, ” my Lord, I asked the bailiff to question Dong Feng’s neighbors. His wife usually has no enmity with the neighbors, nor have they argued with each other. There were no quarrels, so I concluded that Dong Feng was the murderer and used torture to interrogate him!

Xia Pingan nodded and looked at Dong Feng. After a moment of silence, he said, ” although you’re innocent, you don’t have any evidence. In this case, it’s difficult for me to clear your name. How about this? think about it carefully. Did you encounter any strange things on your way home? tell me. Perhaps I can give you some clues!

Dong Feng thought for a moment and suddenly became spirited, ” Sir, I had a strange dream before I went home this time. Does that strange dream count? ”

“Oh, tell me, what strange dream did you have?”

Dong Feng’s face revealed a look of reminiscence, ” when I was preparing to go home, I had a strange dream at night. I dreamed that I was riding a horse and crossing a river south. After crossing the river, I turned back and crossed the river North again. I crossed the river from north to south again three times. In the end, the horse stopped in the river and did not leave even after being whipped. I felt strange and looked down while riding the horse. I saw two suns in the water. The left side of the horse was white and wet, while the right side was black and dry.

When Dong Feng said this, he swallowed his saliva. when I woke up, my heart was beating rapidly and I felt a little terrified. On the night I was preparing to return, I had the same dream again. Then, I went to ask the diviner. The diviner said that my dream indicated the fear of being imprisoned. Furthermore, the diviner stayed far away from the three pillows and the three baths. He did not bathe or sleep on the pillow. When I got home, my wife drew water for me to bathe and gave me a pillow at night. I remembered the words of the fortune-teller and avoided them. The wife took a bath and slept on the pillow. When I woke up the next day, she was killed, Yingluo.”

Xia ping ‘an pondered for a moment, smiled, and said directly to the capital’s magistrate, ” I already know what’s going on in this case. Dong Feng is indeed innocent. Someone else killed his wife. Lord Liu, arrange for some bailiffs to visit Dong Feng’s house and ask if there’s a man named Feng Chang. That Feng Chang is the real murderer. We’ll know once we arrest him and interrogate him!

All the officials and bailiffs in the hall, including Dong Feng, were dumbfounded. They didn’t know why nie Rong could determine the murderer just by listening to a dream, and even say the murderer’s name.

The capital governor’s magistrate took two steps forward and asked humbly, ” my Lord, may I ask how you can determine that Dong Feng is not the murderer from a dream of his? you can even say the murderer’s name? ”

Everyone perked up their ears to listen.

Xia Pingan smiled and said, ” in the Zhou Yi, kan is water, and the horse is li. The dream of riding the horse to cross the South, then from north to south, from kan to li. The three elements change at the same time and become li. Li is a middle-aged woman, and kan is a middle-aged man. There are two suns. The horse is in the river, and there are two days in the water. This is the symbol of two husbands. This means that Dong Feng’s wife is unfaithful. When Dong Feng went out to study, she already had a lover.

That kan was a law enforcement officer. The officer questioned her husband, and the woman bled to death. The [ kan ] hexagram had two Yin and one yang, and the [ li ] hexagram had two yang and one Yin, connecting and exchanging positions. Under [ li ] and above [ kan ], the image of [ Ji ]. When King Wen of Zhou encountered a prisoner who was not allowed to farm, he could live if he was polite, but he would die if he was rude. The left side of the horse was wet, wet, which meant water. The left side of the horse was filled with water, and the right side of the horse was filled with water. Therefore, the adulterer’s surname was Feng and his name was Chang. It was the adulterer and the woman who conspired to kill him. However, due to a freak combination of factors, the adulterer went to Dong family’s residence in the dark at night and mistakenly killed the woman!”

When the officials in the court heard this, they all sighed in admiration.

The capital governor’s magistrate immediately arranged for bailiffs to arrest the man named Feng Chang.

More than an hour later, Feng Chang was arrested. When he arrived at the main hall and saw the atmosphere in the main hall, Feng Chang’s legs turned to jelly, and he peed and defecated in his pants. He had not even been tortured, but he had already confessed to everything.

The realm Pearl’s world shattered.

The upper limit of his divine power in the temple of the secret mandala had increased by 66 points, breaking through 5250 points.

The mandala shook again as Xia Pingan advanced into the five-sun realm.
