Twenty-six years ago, it was the twentieth year of the forty-two-year-old Qing Yi as the lord of Qinglong City, and in the past twenty years, Qinglong City has been orderly and thriving under his governance.

But something happened in this year, a small thing that seemed ordinary to him at the time, but it turned his life upside down.

That year, a small group of refugees suddenly flooded into the city of Qinglong due to a severe flood in a neighboring village, destroying houses and causing heavy casualties, and a very small number of villagers who survived were already displaced and homeless.

The hungry and cold villagers came to Qinglong City after several twists and turns with their desire to survive, and there were only twenty-one people alive at that time, and they had already been tortured to the point that they were no longer human.

Qinglong City is not an exclusive city, and the city lord Qing Yi is also a kind-hearted person, so he took in these twenty-one people and arranged a place for them to live. In this way, these twenty-one foreigners who fled became a part of Qinglong City.

This was originally a very ordinary thing, in the twenty years that Qing Yi was the city lord of Qinglong City, he had done countless good deeds, and there were many more things bigger than this, after Qing Yi settled them, he never paid attention to this matter anymore.

Unconsciously, half a year passed in a flash, but something strange happened in the originally peaceful and peaceful Qinglong City.

The inexplicable death of the poultry in the people's homes, first three or two in pieces, although it is a loss for ordinary people, but it is also a common thing, and the people in the city did not pay much attention to it, but only complained that their family was unlucky.

Slowly, more and more people's poultry are dying mysteriously, and more and more poultry are dying mysteriously, which is no small matter for families whose income is barely enough to make ends meet.

Many villagers have suffered so much that it has become difficult to make ends meet, so they reported the matter to the local deacons, but there was no response from the deacons, who had all kinds of affairs to deal with every day, and had no time to pay attention to these trivial matters.

This matter really got paid attention to because of a bizarre murder case.

The deceased was an honest and honest villager, and his name was also among the farmers whose cattle had died in large numbers before, and he also went to the village deacon with the villagers at that time, but after returning in vain, he was forced to ask for help from relatives in other villages, and died not long after returning from other villages.

Neighbors described the person who had been lively and toiling one day turned into a cold corpse the next day.

This is no longer a simple death of livestock, but a human life, the village deacon did not dare to slack off, and he couldn't solve it himself, so he immediately reported it to Liang Wei, the deacon in the city.

Liang Wei took over the murder and initially suspected it was murder, but the autopsy showed that the deceased's body was intact, with no trauma or signs of poisoning.

The deceased was a proper farmer, honest and honest, and his relationship with his neighbors was also harmonious, and the possibility of murder was almost zero.

And after experiencing a large-scale death of poultry, the already not wealthy family was even more stretched, and it was reduced to the point of asking for help from distant relatives, and it was unlikely to be murdered for money, Liang Wei finally judged this murder to be an ordinary sudden death.

The case had just come to an end when a second deceased appeared, a businessman.

The deceased's symptoms were the same as those of the previous deceased, with the body intact and showing no signs of trauma or poisoning.

Liang Wei immediately thought about whether there was any connection between the two, so he immediately sent someone to investigate, but the strange thing is that the investigation results showed that there was almost no connection between the two, not from the same village, no relatives, and no contacts, but it was such a coincidental and bizarre death.

Before the second body could be processed, five bodies were found at once, and the deceased was still in the same state as a family of five.

This undoubtedly dropped a bomb on the already unpeaceful lake, and soon the news of the mysterious death of several village names in Qinglong City spread throughout Qinglong City, and it was the first time that such a strange thing appeared in Qinglong City, which had been peaceful for more than 20 years, and for a while, rumors spread in the market, and people were panicked.

This quickly attracted the attention of Qing Yi, who was the lord of the city, and he quickly summoned the twenty-four deacons of Qinglong City, including Liang Wei, to deal with the case together.

If one or two are judged to be sudden death, then so many corpses in a row, the same way of death, if they are all sudden death, it is obviously not convincing.

The intervention of the twenty-four deacons did not make much difference, and they were so busy that they were still at a loss.

But at this time, thirteen more corpses appeared at once, from different villages, with different identities, but they all died in the same way.

The city lord Qing Yi felt the unprecedented pressure, the clouds covered the fog, and he couldn't see the direction clearly, the people in Qinglong City were panicked, and the theory of ghosts and gods prevailed, and for a time praying to God and worshiping Buddha was popular all over the city.

If this problem can't be solved again, I'm afraid it won't be long before Qinglong City will be in chaos.

Qing Yi and the twenty-four deacons had been sleepless for several days in a row, and the physical and mental exhaustion had brought them to the brink of collapse.

However, if this is the only way things develop, it will not be considered a catastrophe in Blue Dragon City. Something that really pushed the whole incident to a climax happened, so suddenly, so loudly.

It was just an ordinary night, and the whole village, nearly 500 men, women, and children, fell into a complete sleep, and the sun was never seen the next day.

When the news reached Qing Yi's ears, he had just stayed up all night and was taking a nap, and when his henchman told him the news, he was so shocked that he fell directly from the stool, and he was stunned on the ground, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time, he knew that things had far exceeded his imagination.

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the Qinglong City, which had been peaceful for nearly a hundred years, was destined to be chaotic. It was impossible for him to stay in the City Lord's Mansion any longer, so Qing Yi didn't stay long, and he didn't even have time to freshen up, so he hurried to the village.

The village is called Jishan Village, built along the stream, where nearly 100 families live, living by farming and breeding, although it is not rich, but it is also self-sufficient, and there is no need to worry about food and clothing.

Qing Yi found the judicial deacon in charge of the village, and learned from the deacon that a few months ago, there had been a large-scale poultry death in the village, and many families had suffered heavy losses and had difficulties in life, so they came to them under the leadership of the village chief, but at that time they felt that poultry deaths were common, but the villagers of Jishan Village were more unlucky to be involved in this matter, so they did not pay much attention to it.

After listening to the words of the deacon of Jishan Village, Qing Yi's face turned blue and he was angry, indeed, the death of poultry is not a big deal, but if it is a large-scale death, it is enough to attract attention.

It seems that the peace of Qinglong City has made these deacons accustomed to a comfortable life, and even the most basic sense of distress has been extinguished.
