Chapter 67 The rainstorm is coming

“I wanted you to stay in the Demon Eliminating Department, but The manpower is really insufficient, not to mention the change of the demon forces in the east, which has completely attracted the attention of the above, and even the main force of the Hei Xuan army has been transferred.”

“Du Guangyao was also transferred to the east, and I can’t remember it for the time being. You.”

Yi Cantian said with a smile.

“What is the mission this time?” Zhou You asked directly.

Having been half a month in the Demon Eliminating Department, he was also a little bored.

Could it be that if he offended Hei Xuanjun, he would stay in the Demon Eliminating Department for the rest of his life?

Since there is a task of eliminating demons, the next step is to let myself move my hands and feet.

“The nature of this task is a bit serious, you should take a look at it yourself.” Yi Cantian returned to the topic and handed a case file to Zhou You.

[Hanging]

Task introduction: Five days ago, Zeng Feng, the magistrate of Huai County, was found hanging himself in the backyard of the county government office. His internal organs were hollowed out, and his death was extremely strange.

Mission Difficulty: Three Stars

Mission Coming: 80 Contribution Points.

After seeing this mission introduction, Zhou You also understood why Yi Cantian came to find him.

The mysterious death of this county magistrate in the county government will surely cause panic among the people in the county, and when the time comes, something vicious may happen.

After all, even the county magistrate dares to slaughter it directly. Where else is the county safe?

“Huaixian is a large county in the west of Qing State with a large population. Now this disaster has happened, and the impact is too great. People were alarmed. You have to rush there as soon as possible. The demon beheaded.”

“The newly appointed magistrate is also leaving for Huai County, so you should also pay attention to protecting it.”

“After all, this case is not known yet. What is Zeng Feng’s reason for provoking the demon, if the newly appointed magistrate goes to see the King of Hell again within a few days, this Huai County will probably be completely messed up.”

Zhou You put away the case file, said with a smile: “Don’t worry, leave it to me.”

“That wish you a pleasant journey.” Yi Cantian nodded.

After sending Yi Cantian away, Zhou You didn’t talk nonsense. He simply packed his luggage, carried the Black Star bow and the Demon Slaying Sword on his waist, and rode a horse to leave the Demon Eliminating Department.

Go west.

A dark mountain and old forest.

There is no light at all, and line-of-sight visibility is extremely low.

Rumble~

The dark clouds in the sky pressed against the top, making a dull sound of thunder, and the pale lightning kept tearing the night sky.

The trees were all rattled by the strong wind, and the young saplings were blown over directly.

Clearly, a torrential rain is coming.

A group of men and horses are moving through the woods.

The leader is a fatty riding a horse and dressed in brocade.

Next to him was a thin, treacherous man with high cheekbones and sunken cheeks.

Behind him are four guards.

“Master Ma, I’m afraid it’s going to rain heavily today. Let’s find a place to take shelter from the rain first.” The thin man opened the mouth and said.

“It’s really not the right time for the rain to come. It’s about to arrive in Huai County, and it’s coming like this.”

Fatty muttered, but chose Master Tang’s suggestion.

He didn’t want to be drenched in soup.

Walking forward for a while, a little light appeared ahead.

“Master Ma, there is a small village in front of us. Let’s go there and spend the night.”

Leveraging the pale lightning that flashed across the sky from time to time, Master Tang vaguely saw a village Outline.

“Okay.” The fat man nodded.

At this moment, the sound of horses’ hooves sounded behind him.

The fat man looked back.

A young man riding a horse came into view, carrying a big bow, majestic appearance, high body, eyes like cold stars, revealing a heroic spirit.

This mountain road was originally very narrow, and the two horses of the fat man’s team were blocking the front, and the young man couldn’t get through.

Seeing this, Brave Youth just frowned and didn’t speak. He could only slow down and follow behind the team.

After a while.

The fat man and his party entered the village.

brave youth looked at the sky and chose to enter the village to take shelter from the rain.

woof~ ~~

The sudden arrival of the entire group soon attracted the sound of dogs barking.

In front of so many people, a black dog kept barking and was very excited.

The barking of the dog quickly caught the attention of the villagers, and the originally pitch-dark house was instantly lit up, and there was a loud noise.

Soon, many villagers rushed out with farm implements such as hoes and rakes and oil lamps, glare looking at these uninvited guests like a tiger watching his prey.

“Who are you?”

“What are you doing at our Bamboo Leaf Village?”

“If you have any bad thoughts, don’t think we are easy to bully Yes, hurry up and leave!”

The villagers shouted.

“My fellow villagers and elders, it’s going to rain on this pegasus. We’re here to stay overnight.” Master Tang said laughter.

“Besides, you don’t have to worry about who we are. The one next to me is the magistrate who went to Huai County to take office, Mr. Ma!”

I heard that fatty is the magistrate , The villagers were a little suspicious and didn’t know what to do for a while.

At this time, an old man who looked like a village chief walked out of the crowd.

This village chief is too old, the wrinkles on his face are like tree bark, and he exudes a strong sense of death, as if half of his foot is in the coffin.

However, the village chief seems to be rotten, but his brain is still quite bright. He looked towards Mr. Chubby: “If this adult is the county magistrate who is going to take office, will he have an official document on his body?”

p>

“Of course there is.” Lord Fatty was also unequivocal, and took out his official document.

After seeing the village chief, he hurriedly said: “I have seen the magistrate, I have offended you before, please make amends!”

The magistrate Ma waved his hand casually: “This The official is a new official, it is normal that you don’t know each other, and those who don’t know are not guilty.”

“Then please come in quickly and rest!” The village chief stretched out his hand and asked.

The fat adults entire group dismounted and followed the village chief into the village.

Brave youth took the reins and said to the villagers: “I am a traveler, and I also want to spend the night in the village.” , but this temperament doesn’t look like a bandit, and he also promised to let him stay overnight.

There seems to be a lot of vacancies in the village, and the villagers quickly found a house for Brave Youth.

Zhou You glanced at the environment of the house. There were some dusty spider webs and a faint musty smell. It was obvious that no one had lived in it for a long time.

However, in this wild country, it is very good to have a tile to cover the head, but you can’t ask for too much.

As I cleaned up a little, there was another footstep outside the house.

“Do you have a better house? I can give you money.” A warm voice sounded.

“It’s easy to talk, easy to talk!” When the villagers heard that there was money to be collected, their faces immediately blossomed.

Zhou You pushed open the door and looked outside.

I saw a man and a woman in gorgeous clothes walking in front, followed by two men who looked like servants.

It should be the wealthy Young Masters and Young Ladies who came out to go on a scenic tour. Maybe they played too much and didn’t go back when it got dark. Now that the rainstorm is coming, they can only stay in this village for one night.
