Chapter Seventy-One: The Stone Pond Disaster

The four of them walked up the stairs and walked to the Shitang Yamen.

Looking up, the Shitang Yamen is no different from that of Ninghai County, the gray eaves and stone tiles, the Zhuzhu wooden fence, there are two white stone lions on both sides of the gate, majestic and majestic, the stone lion's forehead protrudes, angry eyes and whiskers, open their mouths and stick out their tongues to make a hissing shape, looking like they are alive.

The gate of the yamen was opened, and as soon as you entered, two wooden frames were displayed on both sides, on which hammers, guns, halberds, and axes were placed, and the cold light shimmered; There is a small stone platform in the innermost, on which are placed a wooden table, a wooden chair, two bright lamps and a picture screen, on which a creature shaped like a unicorn is painted - Xiao Greed.

As soon as the four of Jian Xu came in, they found that there was not even a single catch in the county office, only the county order and the master were on the stone platform, and these two people were also busy with books.

"Ahem!" Jian Xu saw that the county commander and the master were immersed in their work, and they didn't notice anyone coming in at all, so they coughed dryly twice to attract the attention of the two.

"Huh? Who are you waiting for? So what's going on? As soon as the master heard the coughing sound, he looked up and saw the figure, and blurted out under the conditioned reflex.

"In Xia Jianxu, we are disciples of Ningyangguan, and we were ordered to come to Shitang to eliminate demons." Jian Xu arched his hand and said to the master.

"Ningyang Guan disciple?! Come on! Everyone, please come soon, I hope you don't be surprised. When the Shitang County Commander heard Jian Xu say that the four of them were disciples of Ningyang Guan, his face changed, and he enthusiastically invited everyone in.

"I haven't introduced myself yet, the contemptible Lu is the Shitang County Order; This is Master Zhang in our ya. Lu Xian Ling introduced to the four of them.

"Zhang has seen you." Master Zhang also saluted the four of Jian Xu and said respectfully; Everyone returned the salute.

"Originally, I was supposed to prepare a reception banquet for you first to wash away the wind and dust, but now the situation is critical, so I implore you Dao Elders to take action to eliminate demons first, and I will set up a banquet for you Dao Masters in the future." Lu Xian Ling bowed down to the four of them and pleaded.

"Lord Prefectural Order, please get up! We were originally ordered to come to get rid of the demons, no need for you to say, we also plan to get rid of the demons first, since you have said this, then we will set off now, and return the people of Shitang to a peace. Jian Xu held up Lu County's order, looked at him, and said seriously.

Hearing this, Lu County Ling was suddenly full of surprise, and hurriedly said: "That's really good, Lu Mou first thanked the elders for the great kindness of the people of Shitang!" ”

"Hehe~ You're welcome, please tell me, where do you need our help?" Jian Xu smiled.

"Now there are two places that need the help of the Dao Chiefs, one is the Horngou Village, and the other is the big granary." Lu Xianling is also a cheerful person, seeing Jian Xu asking, he immediately rummaged through the wooden case, and after flipping through a large pile of case papers a few times, he pulled out two of them, looked at them and said.

"Horn Gully Village? What's wrong with the village of Horngou? Jian Xu heard the Lu County order saying that Laojiaogou Village needed help, and immediately became concerned, after all, during his injury and recuperation, the villagers were very enthusiastic, shouting for warmth, and doing everything.

"There is a water demon near Horngou Village, and I heard that the daughter of Village Chief Zheng was also captured by monsters!" Hearing Jian Xu's inquiry, Lu Xian Ling hurriedly looked down, and after reading it, his face suddenly turned ugly, and he said angrily.

"What's wrong with the big granary?" Hearing that someone was captured by a goblin, Jian Xu was also very angry, but he still planned to listen to the questions on the other side first, and then the two powers were balanced.

"There is a large granary on the west side of the city, which is a heavy place for the government to hoard grain. But the insect spirit is raging, repeatedly plundering grain, I ordered the granary to garrison the granary Captain Hu Wanlin to gather heavy troops to enter the demon nest, but I received an urgent report of defeat and return, and I don't know what the situation is in the granary now......" Lu Xian Ling frowned and sighed;

"And the county side has also received the scourge of insect demons, and there is no manpower to help, so I'm really worried about the loss of the big granary." Master Zhang also sighed and added.

"This ......" Jian Xu also had a headache after hearing this, both sides are in urgent need of manpower, otherwise, I am afraid that there will be human lives if it drags on, there are only four people on my side, Xiao Qi is still a child, so there are at most three and a half, what should I do?

"Jian Xu, I think we have to divide our troops into two ways, and send people on both sides." When he was having a headache, Youluo came over and whispered in his ear; As the beauty whispered, a fragrance came to the nose.

Hearing Youluo's opinion, Jian Xu fell into deep thought, if the soldiers were divided into two ways, it was indeed the best way to look now, so as to ensure that there was strength support on both sides, and at least it could be dragged to other fellow sects to support.

After telling everyone what they thought, everyone finally decided to divide their troops to support, and Jian Xu and Youluo went to Horngou Village; Ling'er and the torturers went to the big granary.

"Ling'er, Xiaoqi, you two be careful with yourselves, you must ensure safety, if there is anything dangerous, just wait for my brother and me to come over, I will come over soon, remember my words!" Before leaving, Jian Xu rubbed the heads of the two of them separately and admonished.

"I know~ If I want Xiao Qi to protect me, my brother can rest assured, right, Xiao Qi~" Ling'er hugged the torture Qi and rubbed the little guy's fleshy face.

"Woo~~" The little guy who was deep in the claws could only whine.

"Don't be in the limelight." Jian Xu stepped on the flying sword and shouted at the two of them.

However, Ling'er didn't even look back, waved her hand casually and flew away in a gust of wind.

"Don't worry about them, you don't know Ling'er's strength." Youluo also watched the two of them go away, and said with a smile, "If you really can't rest assured, you might as well hurry to Horngou Village, and if you rescue people, you can go to the big granary to help them." ”

"Well, you're right, then let's go!" After speaking, Jian Xu had already activated his spiritual power, turning into a brilliant spiritual light and shooting directly at Horngou Village.

Coming to Horngou Village again, Jian Xu landed directly in front of Village Chief Zheng's house, and as soon as the aura dispersed, a figure appeared in front of him.

"Are you...... Sword Life Chief? How did you come here? Come, come in and sit down. Appearing in front of Jian Xu was a young woman, the daughter-in-law of the head of Zheng Village, the woman was wearing a blue skirt, her long hair was simply tied up with a cloth belt, and her simple and white face was not powdered, revealing a simple atmosphere.

"Sit down, you two, I'll go get some tea." The daughter-in-law of the Zheng family brought Jian Xu and Youluo into the house, let the two sit on the wooden chairs, and she went into the back room to prepare tea.

Coincidentally, when Jian Xu just wanted to ask the Zheng family's daughter-in-law goblin who came back with tea, Village Chief Zheng walked in from outside with a sigh.

Village Chief Zheng crossed the threshold, and as soon as he entered the house, he was stunned for a moment, and suddenly there were two more strangers in the house, if he hadn't seen the furnishings in the house and his daughter-in-law, he thought that he had been under too much pressure in the past few days, causing him to go to the wrong house in a trance.
