I Eat Monsters In the Town Monster

Chapter 22: desperate wild dog

The time soon came to the afternoon.

A group of cavalry appeared outside Wujiabao, led by Zhu Xiucai.

After seeing them from a distance, the knights who were guarding the wall and upstairs hurried to inform Qin Shaoyou.

When Qin Shaoyou arrived, the cavalry had already arrived at Wujiabao.

In addition to Zhu Xiucai and the few warriors he took away, there was also an acquaintance of Qin Shaoyou - Xu Zongqi.

Xue Qingshan sent his cronies, the general banner, and it seemed that he attached great importance to this case.

Looking at the people brought by Xu Zongqi, they are all new recruits who have been added to the Luocheng Town Demon Division in the past few months.

Qin Shaoyou instantly understood what brother-in-law was thinking.

"It seems that my brother-in-law is also worried. I'm afraid that some of the old people in Luocheng Town Yaosi have been bought by the Wu family. When they come, they will take the opportunity to cause trouble, hinder the investigation, and even destroy the evidence..."

Outside Wubao, Zhu Xiucai saw Qin Shaoyou and shouted loudly, "Sir, we are back!"

"Open the door."

Qin Shaoyou recovered from his thoughts, turned his head to instruct Monk Ma, and then walked down the wall to meet Xu Zongqi, Zhu Xiucai and others.

The gate of Fort Wu quickly opened, and cavalry troops entered the fort one after another.

Qin Shaoyou first said "hard work" to Zhu Xiucai and a few strong men, and then bowed his hands to Xu Zongqi.

When Xu Zongqi saw Qin Shaoyou, he was very happy, he grabbed him and said, "Master Xue asked me to tell you something - you did a good job, you are a lucky general!"

After finishing the message, Xu Zongqi asked his men to hand over to Zhu Xiucai, Monk Ma and others. He also asked Zhu Youyi, the Demon Suppressing Secretary who had come with the team, to check the situation of the comatose caravan members and find a way to wake them up. .

Xu Zongqi himself dragged Qin Shaoyou to continue talking.

"Master Xue has just taken over the Luocheng City Demon Division, and he needs to make some achievements to prove himself, and he is also blocking the mouth of the villain. You brought him such a big case, he is very happy and praises you again and again. This time we We have to follow the vine and find out all the night watchmen and officials who have ties to the Wu family and eradicate them!"

Qin Shaoyou immediately understood.

Brother-in-law, this is to use the Wu family's case to stand up!

In addition to the night watchman who was bought by the Wu family, he might have to take the opportunity to take down a group of people who didn't listen to him.

Qin Shaoyou is not interested in this kind of power struggle in the officialdom.

Xu Zongqi also saw it, so after a few simple chats to let Qin Shaoyou know the general situation, he ended the topic.

The two came to the handover scene.

Xu Zongqi asked as usual: "The people and property of the Wu family are all here? You have not cheated and let go of the people of the Wu family, are you rich in your personal pockets and greedy for the property of the Mo Wu family?"

"No, we're not that kind of people!"

Qin Shaoyou looked righteous.

Xu Zongqi nodded and didn't ask any further questions, just casually glanced at a few fighters under Qin Shaoyou's hands.

The wrestlers responded with smiles, but the smiles were a little stiff.

One of the wrestlers was a little nervous. After being watched by Xu Zongqi, he subconsciously covered his waist with his hands, as if he wanted to cover up something.

What he never imagined was that when he put his hand on the belt, he pressed the thing hidden inside and fell to the ground.

On a piece of golden cake, the golden light shines brightly under the sunlight.

The wrestler, who knew that he was in trouble, broke out in a cold sweat in an instant, and hurriedly leaned over to pick up the fallen golden cake.

In the end, before the golden cake was picked up, two silver cakes fell out of his arms.

Lux suddenly froze, not daring to move any more.

The atmosphere immediately froze, and everyone was a little embarrassed.

It was Qin Shaoyou who reacted first, glared at the warrior, and pretended to be nothing.

"What are you still doing? Hurry up and pick up the money! You've finally saved a little bit of money, so you're going to show it off, right?"

"Yes Yes."

Although he was scolded, the warrior heaved a sigh of relief, and quickly picked up the gold and silver cakes on the ground and stuffed them into his arms.

The colleague next to him also breathed a sigh of relief and whispered reproach: "How did you do it, so careless?"

Lux replied in a quieter voice, "I don't want to either. The amount of gold and silver that your lord gave me was too much for me to carry in my sleeves and arms. After being swept by Xu Zongqi, my heart suddenly became nervous..."

Qin Shaoyou turned his head and explained to President Xu without changing his expression: "This warrior has worked for the Demon Suppression Division for many years. It's normal to have some savings, right?"

"Yes, it's normal." President Xu laughed dryly.

In my heart, I was complaining: Normal ass, do you think I don't know where these gold and silver come from? He is a wrestler, how could he have saved so much by just relying on his salary!

But Xu Zongqi did not expose Qin Shaoyou.

On the one hand, it is because of the relationship between Qin Shaoyou and Xue Qingshan.

On the other hand, it is an unwritten rule to take some money and goods into the pocket from the seizure.

Although the Daxia Law expressly prohibits it, in fact, as long as it is not excessive, it is to turn a blind eye and pretend that it is not seen.

Not to mention Qin Shaoyou and the others, it is he, Xu Zongqi, who has to deal with it before escorting the wealth of the Wu family back to Luocheng.

These warriors under Qin Shaoyou's hands have not done this kind of thing less often before, but this time they got a little more money, which made them feel nervous.

Seeing that the people he brought with him were almost handed over to Qin Shaoyou and the others, Mr. Xu waved his hands to chase them away.

"Okay, hurry up and leave, and leave the rest to us. If you don't leave, I'm afraid you won't be able to reach your destination before dark."

He was in such a hurry to chase people out, but he was also afraid that the unlucky knight would continue to stay here, and he would make some other mischief and make everyone unable to step down.

Qin Shaoyou couldn't get what he wanted, so he cupped his hands and said, "Then let's go, we will have to work **** Xu Zongqi."

Xu Zongqi bowed his hands in return: "It's not about hard work, it's what you should do. I wish you a smooth journey and solve the case as soon as possible. After returning to Luocheng, I will invite you to drink."

This time, he was in Qin Shaoyou's light, and he was able to get a lot of credit and oil. In addition, he also wanted to have a relationship with Qin Shaoyou, so he took the initiative to show his love.

"Then I would like to thank President Xu first."

Qin Shaoyou naturally wouldn't reject the other party's kindness, he agreed with one sigh, then got on his horse, took Zhu Xiucai, Monk Ma and others out of Wujiabao, and galloped away in the direction of Mianyuan County.

They went very smoothly along the way, and they did not encounter any accidents.

When I arrived at Mianyuan County, the sky was still bright, and the gate of the county was still open.

Compared with Luocheng, the city walls and city gates of Mianyuan County are much smaller, but there are quite a few dogs in and out of the city.

A team of soldiers stood guard at the city gate, checking the identities and luggage of those entering and leaving the city gate.

Seeing the arrival of Qin Shaoyou and others, this team of soldiers immediately became vigilant, because they were all burly and armed with weapons.

A strong man with the appearance of a leader, holding a knife in one hand, shouted and asked, "Stop and dismount! Who are you? What are you doing here in Mianyuan County?"

"We are catchers from Luocheng, and we were ordered to come to Mianyuan County on business."

Qin Shaoyou took out a waist badge of Luocheng catching Kuai and related official documents from his luggage, and asked Zhu Xiucai to show it to the other party.

The identity of Ju Kuai is their disguise this time.

It has the right to investigate the case, and it will not make the ghosts who steal children too alert.

After all, it's hard for ordinary hunters to deal with ghosts.

The head of the soldiers checked the waist badge. Although he could not read the words on the official document, he carefully compared the official seal.

After confirming that it was correct, he returned these things to Zhu Xiucai, and while signaling his subordinates to let them go, he asked, "Government? Are you here to investigate the disappearance of children?"

"How did you know?" Qin Shaoyou put away his badge and official documents, and asked casually.

The soldier leader grinned.

"Why don't you ask? In the past two months in our Mianyuan County, apart from the case of the disappearance of children, what other cases should the arresters from Fucheng come to investigate?

But if you want me to tell you, you can't find any clues when you come here.

Because this case was not done by man at all, but by a demon, and the Demon Suppression Division should send someone here! "

"The Town Demon Division has been dealing with the Black Lotus Sect demons recently, and they can't get any manpower for a while." Qin Shaoyou said half-truths, and then asked, "Has any children gone missing in the past two days?"

"Why not? Just last night, Zhang Shilang's grandson disappeared.

The county magistrate was called to Zhang Shilang's mansion late at night and scolded him with blood.

The hunters and night watchmen in the county searched the whole city overnight, but in the end, they still found nothing. "

"Zhang Shilang's grandson is also missing?"

Qin Shaoyou couldn't help frowning, this is not good news.

When Qin Shaoyou and the others were about to enter the city, a strong man couldn't help but said, "Why are there so many dogs in Mianyuan County?"

"These are wild dogs," the city gate soldiers replied. "In the past few months, many wild dogs have come to our Mianyuan County, and even to the residents' homes, but they couldn't drive them away. Some people simply caught them. Dogs, kill and eat meat, it is said that it tastes very delicious."

"A wild dog?"

Qin Shaoyou raised his brows slightly, and cast a scrutiny on the dogs wandering around.

"what?"

After seeing it, he was a little surprised.

He actually saw despair and pain in the eyes of these wild dogs.

This dog...will it be desperate too?
