"Mother, many people in the mountains are gone, have you heard?" said a fawn leaping in front of the doe.

The doe hurriedly lifted the back of the fawn's neck, dragged it under herself, and advised: "So don't run around, stay by your mother's side in the future." ”

The fawn instantly turned into a little boy, put his hands around the neck of the doe and said: "But mother, it seems that all the people who don't see are bad people, the little chestnut who beat Xiaoyu to death is gone, and the arrogant horned cow next door, the one who often bullies us, is also gone......"

"And have you done anything bad?" the doe asked, with a hint of nervousness in her tone.

The little boy shook his head violently, "I didn't! I'm a good person!"

The doe stuck out her tongue and licked up the little boy's jawbone twice, wetting the little boy's red cheeks.

"Then keep being a good person, or you'll be arrested. Doe said.

Yes, recently, the Tianshan Empire, which is calm on the surface, has seen a large number of living beings disappear every day.

For the first day or two, everyone was just curious.

But as more and more creatures disappeared and disappeared for longer and longer, the panic of the fall of the empire began to spread.

Because the mountain spirits found that the creatures that gradually disappeared were not only the wicked people who were usually known to everyone, but also some people who everyone thought were usually good and upright, and they also disappeared inexplicably.

And the same thing happened in Chang'an.

Most of the prisoners in Chang'an Prison disappeared in one day, and about eight out of ten people went missing, including the two princes who had been sentenced to prison by Yun Peng.

In addition, many ordinary people in towns and cities also disappeared one after another, and what made Emperor Yunpeng even more depressed was that many ministers in the court also disappeared mysteriously.

The entire country of Chang'an, from the capital to the local magistrate, but in a few days, half of it was gone.

After the panic occurred, the head catchers of the yamen in various places could be regarded as busy with their bodies, and they pursued clues day and night, but after all, they found nothing.

Yun Peng knew that this was by no means beyond the ability of mortals, so he hurriedly gave the list of mortals who were currently missing, along with his own letter asking about the situation, to Xiangting, the new ghost king of the earth ghosts.

Although Xiang Ting's quick appearance after receiving the letter gave comfort to Yun Peng's allies, the news she brought was like a bolt from the blue.

Xiangting said that none of the missing people on the roster appeared on the ground.

"In other words, aren't these missing people dead?" asked Yun Peng towards Xiangting.

Xiangting lowered her eyebrows and thought for a while, and replied: "If you don't come to our ghost, it doesn't have to be dead, it's likely that your soul will be scattered directly, and you won't even have a complete soul, or ......."

"Or what?" Yun Peng asked.

"Or their souls are just like the Great Tribulation of Immortal Yuan Huashan at that time, and the souls of millions of immortal soldiers were all sucked into their bodies by the Demon Ziyan. ”

"So this time it's the Demon Ziyan again!" Yun Peng slapped the armrest of the throne hard, thinking that a Demon Ziyan would absorb people's souls and enhance their internal strength by unscrupulous means.

Now that half of the officials are missing, the entire government is almost paralyzed, and Yun Peng's implementation of an order is not even complete in the chain of conveying orders, how can he not be in a hurry......

Xiang Ting didn't answer at this time, because in her cognition, there was anyone else in this world who had this ability, and she could instantly get rid of all the people from different regions and different identities, except for Mo Ziyan, she couldn't think of a second one.

Because now not only Chang'an, but even the Tianshan Empire, the hometown of the Xuanyuan Empress Ye Thorn, Xiang Ting also heard that the same situation had occurred, she didn't understand why Mo Ziyan did this, what was the purpose of doing this?

And since there are accidents in Chang'an and Tianshan, will the next target of Demon Ziyan be the earth ghost?

"Originally, this king wanted to directly call the army to investigate the case thoroughly, but since the other party is Mo Ziyan, I don't think we can do anything. Yun Peng's face was a little pale.

Just as Xiangting was thinking and Yun Peng was in despair, an urgent report came.

The content of the emergency report is that on the thousand-mile city wall of Chang'an Capital, millions of charges appeared out of thin air, and the charges pointed directly at the missing people.

Yun Peng and Xiang Ting hurriedly rushed to the scene, the army sent away the people who were blocked, Yun Peng personally got out of the carriage, walked to the edge of the city wall, and trembled to tear down the charges pasted on it one by one to look carefully.

The indictment has a name, a portrait, a specific history of the crime and the criminal law to which it should be sentenced.

There are murderers, rapists, embezzlers and bribe-takers, and many robbers and bandits on the road, and Jianghu sects......

The culpability of these missing persons has one thing in common, that is, the crimes they committed are punishable by death according to the laws of Chang'an.

For example, the rapists listed above have raped several women to death, and even if some did not die on the spot, the women later committed suicide because of their innocence;

For example, many local tycoons provide officials with money to buy officials, and privately run a business that Yun Peng has never heard of: official loans;

Another example is that several important ministers close to Yun Peng's relatives and trusts actually colluded with officials and businessmen, embezzled national taxes, and implemented a policy of suppressing the people in disguise, making the people on one side impoverished and miserable......

Yun Peng held one piece after another, and then raised his eyes to look at the countless black letters on a white background on the city wall, listening to the voices of the people behind him who couldn't be suppressed, and stopped in place tremblingly.

He was shocked that what he thought was a peaceful country actually had so many ugly things hidden.

Some seemingly unpretentious villagers, for the sake of money, even joined a gang with the purpose of killing officials.

Because since the limelight of buying officials is prevalent, the business of official loans has naturally become a scale.

Therefore, there is actually a murderous gang among the people of Chang'an, which specializes in killing those officials who have no potential for promotion, or officials who are unable to repay loans, so as to vacate their official positions and sell them to the next family at a good price.

There are many such gangs in various towns and cities in Chang'an, and they are generally supported behind the scenes by those wealthy people who are engaged in the business of official usury.

Kill a man, three hundred taels of silver.

For the toiling people who don't earn so much in a year, joining this kind of gang can be regarded as the fastest way to make a fortune.

Three hundred taels of silver, the price is just to kill a person you don't know, and most people who are so hungry that their eyes are green will still take the risk of doing it.

Xiang Ting saw that the top layer of the large stack of rice paper in Yun Peng's arms at this time was a person she had never heard of.

Xiang Ting took a look and realized that that person was the leader of one of the murder gangs.

"It's true, my brother also bought officials, and they killed him. Xiang Ting said in a steady tone.

Yun Peng didn't speak, he suddenly felt that all this was a joke, a joke that made a fool of himself and had to be seen by outsiders.

"Who did this?!" Yun Peng suddenly became a little angry, and the rice paper in his hand was clenched by him for a moment, "Who is it!" he shouted with his head up to the sky.

At this time, he even wanted to shout directly: "Demon Ziyan, you come out for me!"

But unexpectedly, at this moment, the millions of crimes on the city wall suddenly broke away from the wall, flew into the air, and rotated in parallel.

They were facing the sky on the front, and all the people of Chang'an under the city wall on the back, and as the drifting movement of the rice paper gradually stabilized, the height became lower and lower, and everyone clearly saw a line of words behind each piece of paper, which read: Sanqing Heavenly Dao Zhengshen, Heavenly Wolf.
