"How do you know?" Xiao Lian's face was slightly pale, and his expression was slightly nervous.

Su Jing looked away: "In that case, why don't you take the opportunity to escape." ”

Xiao Lian lowered his head gloomily and said sullenly: "My mother and sister are still inside, how can I leave alone, this time I escaped to find something to eat." ”

"Master, what are we going to do next? The subordinates just entered the city and thought that this Ma County Commander was a clean official. ”

"There must be something strange in this Pingkang City, but I can't make a conclusion just by listening to his words, and I need to verify it first." Su Jing looked up at Zhuo Yi: "Let's go to the west of the city." ”

"Who the hell are you? You still don't want to go there, there are a lot of officers and soldiers guarding there, and ordinary people are not allowed to approach at all, and I just sneak out while they are not paying attention. Xiao Lian said.

Zhuo Yi whispered: "No, master, we just came, and we are not familiar with this place, will it be too dangerous to go like this, you ...... Your status is honorable, just in case...... The subordinates are worried that they will not be able to protect the safety of their masters. ”

"Don't worry, as long as we are careful not to reveal our identities, nothing will happen, and besides, we are just going to find out the news first."

"Master......" Zhuo Yi wanted to say more.

"Alright, without further ado, get ready." Su Jing raised his hand to stop Zhuo Yi and looked at Xiao Lian: "You lead us the way to the west of the city." ”

Xiao Lian was stunned: "It's weird, I finally slipped out of it, you still have to go to that ghost place, I can take you there, but let's say it first, don't rely on me if something happens to you, blame this Qincha, we could barely beg for food outside to live, but now we can only be locked up in that dark ghost place every day and wait for death." ”

"What does this have to do with the new Qincha, who came down to provide disaster relief on the orders of the emperor, and it is the local officials who are holding you prisoners."

Zhuo Yi squinted at Su Jing.

"Anyway, none of these officials have a good thing."

There were not many people on the street, and they were not conspicuous after disguise, but they would not be conspicuous, and the two followed Xiao Lian all the way to the west of the city.

Although the City God Temple has long been ruined, it can vaguely see the prosperity of the past, and the location of the area is much larger than that of ordinary temples.

Su Jing stopped at a corner of a house not far from the City God Temple, taking a closer look at his surroundings.

As soon as he stepped into the west of the city, he felt a little strange, it was sparsely populated, the streets were clean, but he always felt a little desolate.

From a distance, you can see some people dressed in official clothes guarding the temple around the temple, and people in regular clothes are constantly walking around.

Zhuo Yi said: "Master, it seems that what he said is true, there are indeed ghosts in it." ”

Su Jing already made a judgment in his heart, but to catch the thief and take the stolen goods, he needed conclusive evidence: "You will lure people away in a while, and I will go in." ”

"However, this is too dangerous, so let's let my subordinates go."

"No, you don't." Su Jing's attitude was very resolute, and Zhuo Yi had no choice but to give up.

"If you really want to get in, I have a way." Xiao Lian said.

Su Jing and Zhuo Yiju looked down at him, Xiao Lian was a little embarrassed, and touched his neck: "Although I don't know who you are, I know that you are good people, the City God Temple is a broken temple, there is a hole under the vines in the north corner, which can be used by one person to enter and exit, and I came out from there." ”

However, when Su Jing and Zhuo Yi saw the hole, they couldn't help but have black lines on their heads, and the entrance of the hole that could be passed by one person was actually only the size of a child, and adults had to make some effort to drill through it if they wanted to go over, but this hole-Zhuo Yi looked up at Su Jing with a strange gaze.

It's not appropriate to let the master drill into the hole, right......

Su Jing saw through his mind at a glance, and with an expressionless face, he tapped the wall with his toes and jumped over the high courtyard wall.

"Wow, that's amazing!" Xiao Lian was stunned directly.

"Okay, you can go in first." Zhuo Yi's face was distressed, it was troublesome to build the wall so high. It took a lot of effort to finally climb through the wall.

The landing happened to be in the backyard, and there were weeds everywhere in the past, and the ground was even more muddy.

"Come with me, go this way." Tether led them through a hallway, and soon reached the antechamber.

As soon as he entered, Su Jing was shocked, and as far as the eye could see, the ground was full of people lying on the ground with sleek faces and hungry skin, and even some had been dead for many days, and there was a foul smell everywhere.

Su Jing's arrival didn't surprise this person, they just looked at them blankly, probably thinking that they were newly imprisoned victims.

"This is hell on earth, they are too ruthless, even if these people are driven out of the city, there will still be a way to live, master, we must not let them go easily." Zhuo Yi slammed his fist on the door frame.

Su Jing's mood was also very heavy, and this situation was far more serious than he imagined.

"Dog officer, isn't he afraid of causing a riot with this action?"

Su Jing shook his head: "You see them like this one by one, and they still have the strength to fight back?" ”

Zhuo Yi glanced at it, lowered his head silently, but clenched his fists silently.

Su Jing followed Xiao Lian to a thin old woman in the corner, and there was a six or seven-year-old girl snuggled next to the woman, because her cheeks were too thin, her two eyes looked very big, and she was looking at Su Jing and Zhuo Yi timidly, her fingers tightly grasping the corners of the woman's clothes.

"Mother, I'm back. Erni, don't be afraid, they're not bad people. Xiao Lian looked at the woman in the corner, and then squatted down and touched the little girl's head.

"Little Chain, you're back." The woman seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and then looked at Su Jing and them: "Who are you?" ”

Listening to the woman's voice, Su Jing realized that she was actually not old, looking at the age of Xiao Lian, the woman estimated that she was only about thirty, maybe her livelihood was too difficult, and she had two children and no food or drink, so she looked old.

"Mother, they are good people, I was almost caught today, but they saved me and bought me hot buns to eat." Xiao Lian said and swept around with his eyes: "Erni, come with my brother." ”

"Thank you benefactor, thank you, thank you for saving my little leash." When the woman heard this, she wanted to get up and kowtow to them to thank them, but her body was so weak that she almost fell to the ground.

Su Jing quickly helped her: "No, it's just a trivial matter, and the eldest lady doesn't need to be like this." ”

"The benefactor saved Xiao Lian's life, and I deserve it even if I kowtow to a hundred benefactors."

Su Jing's eyes darkened a little, and Zhuo Yi asked puzzledly: "If you catch it, don't you just send it back, how can you die?" ”
