I have just been promoted to Qianhu, and I was shocked to hear that this is a Liaozhai!

Chapter 32 White Tiger Constellation
above the city wall.

Zuo Dao looked at the corpses on the ground and felt a chill rising from the bottom of his heart for no reason.

Sacrifice?

He was startled by the thought that came to his mind.

These beasts that escaped from the Black Mountains came here and attacked Guobei County like crazy.

Then they killed them one by one under the city wall.

This caused endless blood to fill the field, and wisps of mysterious aura floated out from the corpse.

Slowly rising to high altitude, slowly gathering and forming.

Is this what you get from sacrificing these ferocious beasts from the Black Mountains and the dead soldiers?

What the hell are these things?
He looked up to the sky, where the mysterious aura was still gathering.

But if you want to take shape, these equivalents are completely insufficient.

So more ferocious beasts or human corpses are needed.

This may mean that this beast tide is not over yet, and there may be more violent beast tides to come.

What are those mysterious auras?
Why can it exist at high altitudes for a long time, and it is still trying to gather and form.

Zuo Dao stared at the sky, thoughts racing in his mind, but he still couldn't get the slightest clue.

Beside him, the physical Buddha sat cross-legged on the city wall with his hands clasped together like an old monk sitting in meditation.

At this time.

Zhang Long walked from under the city wall and whispered to Zuo Dao: "Sir, the master of Guobei County Government wanted to leave from the other side of the city gate, but was stopped by the Jin Yiwei who came from outside."

Zuo Dao came back to his senses and said, "Master from Guobei County?"

Zhang Long said: "The man we saw when we came down from Lanruo Temple is now being detained at the city gate."

Zuo said: "Bring it up."

Zhang Long heard the words, responded, and then hurried towards the city.

At this moment, many soldiers on the city wall have been rotated, and many people in the city are carrying war supplies.

This Guobei County is not a big city to begin with, and there are not many soldiers stationed in it.

Counting the county government officials, police officers and the like, there are only a few hundred people.

Now, most of these hundreds of people have been transferred to the city wall here, and the rest of the city gates are guarded by Jin Yiwei and the remaining soldiers.

The people in the city have already been mobilized to carry supplies and prepare food and water.

Because only if the whole city unites as one, can we resist this beast tide.

Soon, the master of the Guobei County government was put on the city wall.

The Master was held in Zhang Long's hand, and his figure couldn't stop shaking. After seeing Zuo Dao, he started crying.

"Sir, that matter has nothing to do with me. It was all forced on me by the county magistrate."

Zhang Long took a step forward, opened the gate of the city tower, and then threw the master in.

After Zuo Dao entered the tower, Zhang Long closed the door.

There are two guards in royal robes guarding the door, and there is also a physical Buddha sitting on the city wall.

The soldiers guarding the city were all looking intently, for fear of being found out.

Inside the tower.

Zuo Dao sat on the Grand Master's chair, looked at the kneeling Master in front of him, and said, "Tell me everything you know."

When the master heard this, his voice trembled and he said: "When you first arrived, you discovered that the county magistrate was responsible for killing good people and taking credit for it. The magistrate held a grudge."

"After the adults left, he asked me to go down and look for the village elder of Niujia Village."

"Tell the village elders that the adults are high-ranking officials from Kyoto with extraordinary strength. They can definitely help them find the lost villagers." "I just want to use this to introduce the adults to Lanruo Temple and get rid of them with the help of the big demon. grown ups."

After finishing speaking, the master knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, saying: "Sir, this matter... I was really forced to do this. I am just a master. To put it bluntly, I am the county magistrate's bastard. If I don't obey, Will die."

Hearing this, a ruthless look flashed in Zhang Long's eyes, and he said: "I see, it's exactly as expected. It seems that the dog officer died too lightly."

Zuo Dao looked at the master in front of him and said, "What else? Is there any connection between your Guobei County and Linya City?"

The master said quickly: "The county magistrate is the disciple of City Lord Fan of Linya City. He was taught by City Lord Fan in the early years. Some time ago, someone came from Linya City and had a long secret talk with you."

Zuo Dao frowned slightly and said, "Continue, what did they talk about?"

The master said with a stern expression: "During the secret conversation, only the county magistrate was present. I don't know what they talked about."

Hearing this, Zuo Dao smiled and said, "If this is the case, you will be useless."

When the master heard this, he trembled for a moment, and then quickly said: "It's useful, it's small."

The master raised his head and glanced at Zuo Dao, and then said: "I heard from the county magistrate before that City Lord Fan seemed to be looking for something for someone. Maybe some time ago, people from Linya City came to talk about this matter. ."

"And my county magistrate has a habit of never burning secret messages from Linya City. They are always kept in a secret pavilion. I know where the secret pavilion is."

Hearing this, Zuo Dao said, "Zhang Long, you have a chance with him. If he lies, kill him directly."

Hearing this, Zhang Long cupped his hands and said, "Yes, sir."

Immediately, he glanced at Zuo Dao and asked: "Sir, when the county magistrate and his family heard about the magistrate's death, they wanted to flee with their whole family tonight, but we took them away. I don't know what to do with them?"

Zuo Dao said casually: "Kill them all!"

Zhang Long slightly arched his hands, then left the city tower with his master and walked towards the bottom of the city wall.

Zuo Dao stood on the city wall and continued to look at the mysterious aura that was slowly condensing.

In his eyes, two small characters slowly appeared: White Tiger.

Perhaps the mysterious aura condensed too slowly, or was too sparse, making the fonts behind it almost invisible.

Zuo Dao murmured: "White Tiger."

This was the first time he encountered this situation. There were only two words in his eyes, and the rest of the words were blurred.

Could it be that the mysterious aura is too rare?

But what does the word white tiger mean?
Could it be one of the four images of the Seven Constellations of Stars in Western Taoism?

He vaguely remembered that in Taoism, the white tiger was one of the four sacred beasts, ranking in the west, belonging to metal, and mainly killing.

kill?
An idea flashed in Zuo Dao's mind, and he looked down at the corpses on the ground under the city wall.

A bold idea suddenly came to my mind.

Could it be that behind this beast tide, what the promoters want is endless killing.

Whether it is the ferocious beasts of Montenegro or the people of Guobei County.

All it wants is as many deaths as possible.

The more people die, the more mysterious aura there is with the word "White Tiger".

In this way, he will take shape faster.

Could it be that what it seeks is the product of the gathering and shaping of this mysterious aura.

That thing with the word white tiger.

Zuo Dao looked up at the sky and saw that the 28th Western Seven Stars were brighter than before.

Hanging in the night sky, like a tiger.

Zuo Dao's thoughts raced in his mind, and he felt like he had caught something.

Perhaps this is the reason behind the beast tide.
