Chapter 252: Xuanyuan Immortal Cave (12)
Suddenly, someone pressed the sharp tip of a knife against the back of his heart, and in this situation, there is no one in ten thousand warriors who can still talk without changing his face.
Fortunately, although Wang Jia's courage is not big, his brain is still bright, although he has been frightened by the man with a knife behind his back to sift the chaff in his legs and stomachs, he still replied clearly: "A group of thirteen or fourteen rough men who lit incense and rode horses, when they entered the city gate, they scattered and did not know where to go, only to listen to the man with the brocade burden to say, let them gather at the Xu family inn early tomorrow morning." ”
Seeing that Wang Jia actually answered fluently, the girl with a crisp voice behind him hesitated: "Are you not lying to me?" This group of incense-smelling cultists are cunning one by one when they act, how can they tell everyone about the place where they spend the night? ”
Finding that the woman behind him clearly didn't believe her confession, Wang Jia's heart jumped to his throat, and his voice also carried three points of crying: "The conscience of heaven and earth, what the villain said is true!" If anyone is deceived, call me ......"
Saying that, Wang Jia was swearing by the sky, and Leng Buding felt that his right shoulder and head suddenly sank, as if something suddenly jumped on his shoulder.
Wang Jia's heart was shocked, and he subconsciously tilted his head in the direction of his right shoulder, and his eyes were facing the strange face of the bottom of a wine bottle.
I saw a pair of black bean-like eyes on that strange face blink quickly twice at Wang Jia, and the latter suddenly felt that his brain under his scalp jumped suddenly; Then the legs and feet did not obey the call as if they were stepping on cotton, and the whole body fell limply.
Just a moment before Wang Jia completely lost consciousness, he vaguely heard an extraordinarily deep voice muttering, "Xia'er, this person is telling the truth. It seems ......"
When Wang Jia woke up again, he found that it was already the middle of the moon at this time, and there was silence all around.
The girl who was standing behind her and pressed a knife against her heart, along with the hairy-faced monster that jumped on her shoulder and scared him Wang Jia, all disappeared, leaving Wang Jia lying on his back in the cave of the city gate.
Judging from the faintly painful lump on the back of Wang Jia's head, when he fell unconscious, the woman standing behind him obviously had no interest in helping him, so she let him Wang Jia fall like an ignorant wooden man.
Rubbing the back of his head in pain, Wang Jia spat at the ground with hatred: "It's really poured eight lifetimes of blood mold, and it's good to bump into a dominatrix!" Uncle Wang cursed you to find ...... for the rest of your life."
Just as Wang Jia gritted his teeth and squatted on the ground and cursed repeatedly, he was suddenly stunned, staring at the night that had been reflected red in the northeast corner of the county, and secretly complained in his heart.
"His uncle, the city is watery!"
As a city guard patrolling the city at night, once there is a fire in the city, Wang Jia will definitely not be able to escape from it.
So this Wang Jia hurried to the fire, and at the same time went door to door and shouted, calling the people in their sleep to fight the fire together.
Fortunately, there are not too many permanent residents in this small county outside the Guan, and there is a lot of open space between the huts and wooden sheds of the residents, and the fire was discovered in time...... After a night of fighting by Wang Jia and others, this sudden fire was quickly extinguished.
When Tianmingzhi County led a few scribes in charge of household registration books to the scene of the fire to count the losses the next day, they were surprised to find that except for the Zhao family inn in the center of the fire, which was burned to rubble, and the Zhao boss who was lucky enough to escape from the fire was leading his family to squat beside the ruins and cry and howl, the rest of the losses were very small, and there were no casualties.
However, just when the county magistrate's face was just showing joy, Zhao Xiancheng, who was frowning, took a few black and gray officials and rushed to the county magistrate's side at a trot.
I saw that Zhao Xiancheng rushed to the side of the magistrate in a few steps, first waved his hand to drive away the scribes and officials around him, and then put his mouth to the magistrate's ear, and desperately lowered his voice and said: "My lord, the big thing is not good, someone is killed!" ”
It turned out that when Zhao Xiancheng was taking a few officials to investigate the fire and look for the cause of the fire, a sharp-eyed official suddenly found that in the horse shed in the backyard of the inn, under the scorched black stone horse trough, a gap of three or four inches wide leaked...... It turned out to be a secret cellar dug under the stable, and the mouth of this cellar was being opened in the manger!
At that time, the roads outside the gate were not quiet, so many people quietly dug cellars under their houses to hide from bandits.
Therefore, the official did not think much about it at that time, but with the idea of casually going over to see if the grain and cloth stored in the cellar had been affected by the fire, and whether he could reap the benefits, he leaned over to the stone trough and glanced into the gap.
However, it was this glance that made the official seem to have been immobilized by Sun Wukong, maintaining this action of leaning over and looking around, staring and opening his mouth, motionless......
Later, Zhao Xiancheng, who still led people to inspect around, found that the appearance of this official was a little strange, and specially stepped forward to push him, and this person suddenly woke up and let out a scream of "ah"!
Zhao Xiancheng, who was startled by this officer, was about to get angry, and inadvertently followed the officer's line of sight to look deep into the gap leaking from the bottom of the mrough, and let out a "ah" scream.
It turned out that only by walking directly above the manger could you vaguely see the situation in the depths of the cellar: there were two rows of uneven black and yellow teeth, just about to open the cellar directly above!
Actually, these two rows of teeth are not nothing to be afraid of, even if there are a few more rows.
But if only two rows of teeth can be seen on a person's face, it means that the owner of these two rows of teeth has been burned into a charred corpse that looks like charcoal black!
Seeing that there was a human life, Zhao County Cheng Dengshi felt that the green tendons on the top of his head were jumping straight up, and he pulled over a servant: "Go find that Wang Jia and let him go down to the cellar to carry this charred corpse out." ”
There's no way, in the past, this son-in-law had human rights, and all the hard work had to fall on your head.
You are the one who built the wall, you are the one who dug the ditch, and you are the one who carried the dead bodies to the mass graves outside the city.
So I really don't understand why so many people rush to be sons-in-law...... Shhhh
Although Wang Jia was reluctant in his heart, he couldn't stand Zhao Xiancheng's fierce threat: "Wang Jia, you listen to the master, if you don't dare to go down today, the Chengdan of Lijia Village will be all you kid in the future!" ”
Wang Jia, who was reluctant, had no choice but to take a rope, and the two servants with big shoulders and round waists fell down, pushed open the stone slab of the trapdoor at the bottom of the mrough, and climbed down in fright.
However, when Wang Jia climbed down the cellar, he found that his workload was far more than just the one standing directly below the stone trough: the cellar of Xu Fangyuan was full of charred corpses that were lying down or lying!
