Hu Shuntang was originally a general of the imperial court, but because he committed a capital crime, he was demoted here, and the reason why he committed a capital crime was that he should not have been surnamed Hu, and he was a coffin opener. However, there were many people with heterogeneous backgrounds in the court to protect him, and finally demoted him to this place to be a secret general.

Hu Shuntang knew that after he was exempted from death, he also knew that he was going to come to Iron Prison County, and in order to make meritorious contributions, he quietly sent people to find a way to let people from different ways study how to fight against the sand demon, and finally obtained the water spirit talisman from the Iron Cloth Gate.

When Wei Chi heard this, he felt that something was wrong: "In such a short period of time, the water spirit rune was studied, and what did the alien path do a hundred years ago?" Why didn't you research it? ”

Tang Anshu whispered: "My lord also knows that the water spirit talisman needs to use human blood, even if it is in a different way, this is also an evil law, who dares to use it?" ”

Wei Chi Chi asked, "Then why dare you now?" Didn't dare before? ”

Tang Anshu felt that he had lost his words, so he just laughed and didn't speak.

Wei Chiran said again: "You mean, you didn't need to get rid of demons before, but now you have to get rid of them, right?" ”

Tang Anshu just raised the teacup: "Little prince, drink tea, drink tea......"

Wei Chi understood that all this had something to do with the monsters, but he still didn't feel that these people had a strong motive to kill the former county guard, even if there were reasons, but these reasons were not enough for them to risk killing, and most importantly, the relationship between the former county guard and the sand demon family of five, and why did they dig a secret passage from the study?

Thinking of this, Wei Chiran returned to the county mansion, stood in front of the secret door and watched, and then let Tang Anshu be in the study, and he stood outside the hidden study, and then he found that he heard the slightest movement in the study clearly, it seems that the servant He Zhong did not lie, he did secretly leave halfway before the former county guard was killed.

Only, why slam the back of the head with a heavy object?

Wei Chiran walked into the study again, stood in front of the desk, and looked at the secret door. The secret door is on the right side of the bookcase, and the secret door opens, and the person in front of the bookcase, that is, the former county guard, can see it at a glance, so the person who comes in must be someone he believes in, and this person suddenly came to the study.

If it was agreed, the former county warden would definitely find an excuse to open the servant and close the door, and the door of the study was always hidden that day, which means that he did not have an agreement to meet the murderer.

Will the murderer bribe the servant? No, that's redundant, that's tantamount to extraneous branches, and the more people who know, the more dangerous it is.

Tang Anshu looked at the door, and said: "I have already investigated He Zhong and Xiaofeng, they are not suspicious, and they have nothing to do with the people outside, except for me and Miss, the objects of your suspicion do not know them, let alone have any connection." ”

Wei Chiran sighed and said, "This case is too strange. ”

Tang Anshu also sighed: "Yes, if it is not strange, the imperial court will not send you to come in person." ”

Wei Chiran asked, "What about Miss He?" What about the county keeper? ”

Tang Anshu said: "She is consulting the file. ”

Wei Chiran asked, "Dossier?" What dossier? ”

Tang Anshu said: "She is checking all the files of the Sand Demon Annihilation War five years ago. ”

Wei Chiran immediately said, "Take me to her." ”

Tang Anshu led Wei Chi Ran to the file library of the county mansion, and found that He Chenxue was sitting in front of the table and carefully searching, and the two walked to her, only to find that she raised her head slightly and said, "The little prince is here." ”

The lieutenant chisely asked, "What did the county guard find?" ”

He Chenxue shook her head: "Nothing." ”

Wei Chiran asked, "Can I take a look at these files?" ”

"Of course," He Chenxue immediately got up, "Little Wangye, please." ”

Wei Chi sat down and began to consult the file, while Tang Anshu and He Chenxue were on the side to help, explaining by the way. Wei Chiran found out from the file that before the sand demon annihilation war five years ago, the emperor had issued many orders to let the Iron Prison County seize the time to exterminate the sand demon, and only gave a three-month deadline.

At the same time, Hu Shuntang also asked many times to find a way to make more water spirit talismans, but the county guard refused, the county guard thought that human life could not be careless, and there were not many death row prisoners here, and most of the bounty hunters could not capture the death row prisoners alive, and basically killed them on the spot, just like Wei Chiran saw Tang Qianlin do.

Because of this, the annihilation of the sand demon has been delayed again and again.

Seeing this, Wei Chiran raised his eyes and looked at Tang Anshu: "Boss, let me ask you, how did you find out that there must be a rainstorm in the undead desert for a hundred years?" ”

Tang Anshu said: "I found a text rubbed down from the tablet. ”

Wei Chiran asked, "Where is it?" ”

Tang Anshu said: "Little prince later, I'll go and get it." ”

Tang Anshu quickly took the text, and after Wei Chiran read the text, he asked again: "Where did you get the rubbing?" ”

Tang Anshu looked at He Chenxue: "This, I also found it here by accident, I don't know who rubbed it down, and I don't know where it was rubbed from." ”

He Chenxue thought for a moment and said, "I know, my father told me. ”

Wei Chiran immediately looked at He Chenxue: "Where is it?" ”

"Ancient difficulty," He Chenxue said, "It was the earliest trade route, and now it has been abandoned, and it is two days away from Iron Prison County, which is very dangerous. ”

Wei Chiran looked at the rubbing text, thought about it and asked Tang Anshu: "Boss, when you turned out this classic, what was the attitude of Lord County Shou?" ”

Tang Anshu recalled: "He was indeed a little angry at first, asking me how to turn this thing out? But then nothing was said. ”

Angry? Question? Wei Chi got up and said, "The attitude of the former county guard has changed, haven't you noticed?" ”

He Chenxue asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Wei Chiran said: "Before the sand demon annihilation war, your father's attitude towards the sand demon can be said to be indifferent, and he didn't want the sand demon to be killed, but then it changed, this change may have been forced, but he concealed the existence of the sand demon family, and also built a secret passage to them, as if he wanted to protect this family." ”

"Nonsense!" After He Chenxue finished yelling, she quickly knelt down again, "Little Lord forgive your sins." ”

"Get up," Wei Chiran felt that these etiquettes were particularly troublesome, "Don't treat me as a little prince, you can say whatever you like, now it's time to discuss the case, everyone can speak freely." ”

He Chenxue got up and said, "Little Lord, how can my father protect the sand demon?" ”

Wei Chiran said: "Then you explain, why is there a secret passage there?" ”

Tang Anshu stepped forward and said, "Even if what you said makes sense, how did the secret passage be excavated?" It takes a lot of workers to dig such a long secret passage, and it is impossible to keep it secret in a place like the county office. ”

Wei Chi said: "Maybe it was dug by the sand demon?" ”

In order to confirm what he said, Wei Chiran asked Tang Qianlin and Zhan Tianya to ask, because he remembered that both of them said that the sand demon has the ability to walk freely under the sand, so can it also dig out the cave?

Tang Qianlin said: "I've heard this point said, but it's not very clear. ”

Zhan Tianya said, "It's better to ask General Hu." ”

Wei Chiran wondered: "Why do you want to ask General Hu?" ”

Zhan Tianya explained: "General Hu personally led his troops to the sand demon's lair, only he has been there, and none of us have been there. ”

Wei Chiran immediately said: "Send someone to invite General Hu and lead him directly to the study to see me." ”

After Wei Chiran finished speaking, he went to the study, half an hour later, Hu Shuntang hurried to the county office, and was taken directly to the study by his subordinates, after seeing the secret door, he was also stunned, Wei Chiran didn't explain much, just led him into the secret door, walked into the secret passage, and then asked: "General Hu, is this secret passage familiar?" ”

Hu Shuntang looked at the secret passage and said in surprise: "This, isn't this exactly the same as the sand demon's lair?" ”

"Exactly the same?" Wei Chi asked, "Really?" ”

Hu Shuntang affirmed: "It's true, I remember very clearly, five years ago, when I led my troops to exterminate the sand demons, after we took advantage of the torrential rain in the desert to win, I led people to chase after the victory, but when we reached the entrance of the lair, we didn't dare to go in, because there was no water inside, didn't we go in and fall into the net?" ”

Wei Chiran asked, "Then how did you do it?" ”

Hu Shuntang said: "I managed to introduce the water of the rainstorm into the cave, because the rainstorm lasted for seven days, so the sand demons in the lair were eliminated almost without using troops. ”

Wei Chiran asked again: "Have you confirmed?" ”

Hu Shuntang hesitated and said, "I confirmed it later, and there are no sand demons alive. ”

Seeing him hesitate, Wei Chiran asked again: "Did you really bring someone to confirm it yourself?" ”

Hu Shuntang swallowed his saliva: "Little prince, this ...... I ......"

Wei Chi Chi asked sharply: "Answer me!" ”

Hu Shuntang looked outside the secret door, for fear that others would hear it, so he walked up to Wei Chiran and said in a low voice: "Little prince, I did not go to check in person at that time, but sent my subordinates, but the army searched inside for three days and did not find a living sand demon. ”

Wei Chi thought for a moment and said, "How far is it from here to the sand demon's lair?" ”

Hu Shuntang understood what Wei Chiran meant: "Little prince, are you ......?"

Wei Chi said: "Prepare, tomorrow we will go to the sand demon lair first, and then go to Gu Yanquan." ”

After that, Wei turned around and left, Hu Shuntang was stunned in place, as if he had lost his soul, what did this little prince want to do?

Wei Chiran deliberately walked out of the study directly, just to see if they would stay in it for a long time, if they stayed for a long time, it would prove that they would discuss, and if they did, there would be a problem. Wei Chiran even thought about whether it was possible that these people had collaborated to kill the former county guard, except for He Chenxue, of course. And the reason why they wanted to kill the former county guard is - the sand demon!

Therefore, Wei Chiran must go to the sand demon lair to see what is going on, and he must also go to the ancient Nanquan Shangdao to see what is around the original tomb, what is the place, and why the inscription can accurately record that every hundred years, there will be a heavy rainstorm here.

Soon, Hu Shuntang chased him out, and he didn't care about the others who were puzzled, and came directly to Wei Chiran's side and asked in a low voice: "Little prince, do you really want to go?" ”

"Really going," Wei Chi nodded his head, "is it dangerous there?" ”

Hu Shuntang immediately said: "Of course." ”

Wei Chiran said again: "Since the sand demons are all dead, what is the danger? ”

Hu Shuntang was speechless, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Even if there is no sand demon, there will be other dangers. ”

The lieutenant smiled and asked, "What's the danger of that?" ”
