Chapter 132: Yu Buren defends the city
Ruoqiang County is the largest county in China.
Of course, this so-called large does not mean that the population is large and the economy is developed, but that the area is wide. How big is it? Some people have calculated, and the result is that the jurisdiction of Ruoqiang County is roughly equivalent to two Zhejiang provinces.
It sounds incredible, but the vast and sparsely populated Northwest is not incomprehensible. After we left Yinchuan, we rushed to Ruoqiang County non-stop.
In fact, it is still early before the gambling time, but Zhang Wuren said that now the gambling contract between the Yin Yang Store and the Ancestor of the Corpse has been spread on a small scale. In today's Ruoqiang County, all the exorcists and evil spirits who got the news gathered like flies that smelled fish.
Not to mention anything else, the prisoners who escaped from the Ghost Prison, the murderers who were ranked on the murderer list, and the evil exorcists who were bewitched by the concubine headless were all rushing to Ruoqiang County.
Even the Special Cases Department sent a team to arrive here, and now the Special Cases Department has an ambiguous attitude, who is the leader of this team, and whether they are here to support the Yin Yang Store or to arrest Major Guan Kai, no one can say.
Now Ruoqiang County only has Yu Buren and Liu Tieshou in charge, but Liu Tieshou has just recovered, and it is not suitable to act now. And although Yu Buren is powerful, after all, he lacks skills, and if someone really wants to calculate something, it is inevitable that there will be negligence.
The stakes are high in this gamble, and Zhang Wuren and He Zhonghua don't want any accidents to happen. As long as we arrive in Ruoqiang County and gather all the people of the Yin and Yang Shop to sit in town, we will deter those chaotic demons and evil spirits from daring to move.
I don't know if it was intentional or unintentional, but when we arrived in Ruoqiang County, it was in the middle of the night. It may be that the people here don't like nightlife, the huge county town, and the silence is like a dead city.
The Wrangler made his way down the deserted street, and soon came to a small, lighted three-story building. Zhang Wuren parked the car downstairs, tilted his head and glanced up, then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "No problem, get out of the car!" ”
He Zhonghua said with a smile: "I told you a long time ago, the current old Yu is not as good as before, he has studied art in Beijing for three years, and it is estimated that his means are more powerful than those of us." With him here, what are you worried about? ”
Zhang Wuren smiled slightly and said, "The heart of guarding against people is indispensable. No matter how old and strong you are, there is only one person after all, so it's always right to be careful. ”
He opened the car door and said, "Bring your things, your destination has arrived." ”
The door of the three-story building was locked, but Zhang Wuren had the key in his hand, and after opening it, he went straight down the stairs to the top floor. I looked curious and asked in a low voice, "Boss, is this small building our shop?" ”
He Zhonghua replied casually: "No, it was built by a ghost merchant in the northwest region, and this ghost merchant owes us a favor, so he took the initiative to let us live temporarily." ”
While speaking, Zhang Wuren had already led us to the balcony on the top floor. As soon as we walked out of the staircase, we saw a dim light, and under the light, a young man in a desert combat uniform and carrying a long weapon on his back was facing away from us, staring into the darkness.
I don't know what he's looking at in the dark.
Hearing the movement behind him, the young man turned around and grinned: "Boss, you guys are here." ”
He turned his gaze and saw me behind Zhang Wuren and He Zhonghua again, and said with a smile: "The fourth child is also here, very good, very good." ”
The moment he turned his head, I could clearly see a purple glow in his eyes.
I blinked, and when I looked again, his eyes were so normal that I didn't even know if what I had just seen was a hallucination or if there was a real flash of violet.
This young man was the one he met by chance in the Fallen Soul Cottage.
Zhang Wuren casually threw his backpack on the ground, walked over and hugged him, then patted his shoulder and said, "Hard work, old Yu." ”
Yu Buren smiled: "Don't say much about hard work, just go back and give some overtime pay." ”
In fact, at that time, I didn't know what Lao Zhang meant by hard work, but later He Zhonghua explained it to me, and I understood what the so-called hard work meant.
When Zhang Wuren and He Zhonghua went back to the mainland to look for gambling participants, Ruoqiang County left Yu Buren alone. At that time, Ruoqiang County was already on the cusp, and there were swarming demons and murderers everywhere.
You must know that although Ruoqiang County is located in a remote area, it is a county seat after all, and once the number of evil murderers increases, it is inevitable that there will be some chaos.
And the work that Yu Buren did was to deter all the evil murderers in the county.
In the first few days, Yu Buren was ruthless, I don't know how many evils he suppressed, how many murderers he imprisoned, and fiercely deterred those demons and monsters who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity, and signed an agreement not to do anything to ordinary people.
The demons were shocked by his ruthless methods and had to agree to Yu Buren's condition. So the two sides formed a very delicate equilibrium, the decent exorcist does not go to the trouble of the evil murderer, but the evil murderer is not allowed to do anything to the ordinary person.
But the evil murderers are treacherous by nature, and although they compromised with Yu Buren on the surface and did not dare to move, who knows what they are thinking in their hearts.
The good thing is that a pair of eyes are different, and they can see the changes in the yin and yang breath and the flow of life and death. For this reason, he stood on the top of this three-story building, but his eyes scanned around, and the changes in the aura of the entire county were under his gaze.
It is precisely because of the deterrence of Yu Buren's eyes that the demons and monsters in the entire county do not dare to move, and obediently wait for the start of the gambling game.
This deterrence is seven or eight days.
In the past few days, Yu Buren used iron blood and arrogance to deter all the ghosts, demons, and murderers in the county. It can be said that the reason why Ruoqiang County is still calm and calm now, without the slightest chaos, is indispensable!
That's why Zhang Wuren patted him on the shoulder and said that he had worked hard.
In fact, at that time, I was very envious in my heart, the two bosses and Yu Buren were not a few years older than me, but they were clever and I don't know how many times they were smarter.
After a few pleasantries, we each introduced the situation. Needless to say, we need to say that the people we should be looking for have been found, and we will arrive in Ruoqiang County to participate in the gambling fight on the day the gambling game begins.
And Yu Buren also introduced: "Major Guan Kai has already gone to the Ten Thousand Demon Pit to step on the plate first, and by the way, test the degree of control of the Ancestor of the Corpse over the corpse qi. Liu Tieshou was in Lop Nur Town, doing some preventive work as planned. ”
After a pause, Yu Buren said again: "The general situation is still under control, but yesterday during the day, some strange people came to the county town. ”
Some of the weirdos Yu Buren said are human, and some are not.
Among them, there are more than a dozen foreign tourists, who take the road of a tour group, and find the best hotel to stay in when they enter Ruoqiang County. After they moved in, they didn't go out of the door, and even the hotel was responsible for ordering the meal, and it was sent directly to their room.
There is also a group of people who should have been smuggled over, without identity documents, living on the edge of the county, in an abandoned warehouse. Yu Buren speculated that this group of people might be murderers who crossed the border from abroad. Most of these murderers are Chinese, and they are all murderers who were hunted down by the special case department and had to leave the territory.
Another wave came in last night, taking the yin and yang road, which is commonly known as the ghost road. The number of this wave is a bit much, about thirty or so, fluttering, swaggering and rampage through the city.
A few guys even deliberately passed by the residential area, wanting to take the opportunity to plunder the yang energy of the living, but Yu Buren volleyed a sword in the air and split the two unlucky eggs in half on the spot, and the remaining ghosts almost fled without fear.
Fortunately, the leading guy was more clever, knowing that Ruoqiang County had a top exorcist in charge, so he immediately didn't dare to swagger through the city with his tail between his legs, and his subordinates were also frightened, and hid in the ruins outside the city with their tails.
As long as Yu Buren is still in Ruoqiang County for a day, they will not dare to enter the city for a single step!
On the surface, Ruoqiang County is the same as usual, everyone should work and gather, but in fact, this place has already been turbulent, and I don't know how many living and dead people of all kinds, ghosts and zombies, are staring at the Yin and Yang shop.
Or rather, the participants in the game.
