Chapter 5 Luhun County

Tang Yun's eyebrows immediately wrinkled: "I haven't come back for seven or eight days, didn't the yamen send someone to ask?" ”

Jing Liang said with a bitter face: "Your Excellency, you also know, our yamen is estimated to have the most dead people in the entire capital. On weekdays, there are no more people, where is there time to send people there. The soldiers we sent over are all veterans, so I guess we have encountered some difficulties. ”

Cui Fatzi shouted on the side: "What should I do, the people I sent out have no news." ”

"That's easy, let's just go for a trip." Tang Yun finished eating the noodles, pointed to the bucket next to the kitchen, and asked Cui Fatzi to clean the bowl by himself.

Jing Liang whispered: "My lord, you have just come out of the prison of Sixing Temple, so you should rest for a while." ”

Tang Yun walked to a stream, washed his face, and said, "You don't know the Jiazi prison in Sixing Temple, and give me the information of those sergeants in the past." ”

There were three people in total, all of whom were veterans from Zuo Wuwei.

The Monster Hunting Division has manpower in various places and is responsible for monitoring whether there are monsters appearing in various places. These three people went over and only helped.

Jing Liang suggested that his subordinates should do it, but Tang Yun refused. The person guarding the gate of the government office was replaced by a young man, and as expected, it would not be long before he would go down in person.

The people in the government office have changed batch after batch, and there are always people who have to pay behind the calm and peaceful, even at the cost of their lives.

Cui Fatzi's face was very anxious, Tang Yun felt strange, so he asked him, "You didn't let your subordinates go and see?" ”

"Someone was sent, who knows that there is no news at all, I don't know if I am dead or alive."

Cui Fatzi is the governor of Shendu, and in addition to Shendu, some counties in the Gyeonggi region are also under his control. However, if there is something in a county town, the local officials will usually deal with it, and they will not alarm him to go out in person.

Cui Fatzi came to find someone, which means that this matter is really weird, and he can't deal with it for a while.

Tang Yun went with Cui Fatzi, and there were not so many people in the Demon Hunting Division, only Jing Liang followed. As for Cui Fatzi, he was very careful, called more than 50 catchers, and a group of people rode horses to Luhun County.

"At that time, it was a report submitted by the county magistrate of Luhun County, saying that there were many murders in a local village, and the county government sent someone to investigate the case and report it to the government. I approved it, but at the time I thought it was a thief doing something wrong, so I didn't care too much about it. ”

Unexpectedly, a few days later, the county magistrate of Luhun County reported again, saying that the murder in the villages under its county jurisdiction had intensified, and hundreds of families in a village had died. I was still scolding that county magistrate for being an idiot at the time, and if there was a murder, I would quickly arrest him and tell me what to do? ”

"Who knew that he sent someone to report in the afternoon, saying that there were man-eating monsters in the village, and someone saw the dead come back to life, and even in the county town, there were traces of these monsters."

"You think, that's not. I sent someone over, but who knows that there is no news yet. Their family came to the yamen to look for them, and I found out that something had happened. ”

Cui Fatzi finished sweating profusely, looking at this appearance, it was those family members who caught fast to find it.

Although the capture of the Shendu Mansion is sometimes on official business, it often does not need to run far. Besides, they all work as errands in the yamen, eating and living in the yamen every day, even if something happens, there should always be an explanation in the yamen.

Jing Liang said on the side: "Our situation is similar, and we have also sent people over in the past few days, it is those three people, who knows that there is no news yet." ”

"The Gyeonggi area should have a courier every day, and even if it is safe, there is still news, how can it be black-eyed?" Tang Yun's brows suddenly furrowed.

There are a total of nine counties in Shendu, but as far as the entire Gyeonggi region is concerned, there are many smaller counties next to these nine large counties.

Luhun County is a small county town, with a total of only a few hundred households.

It stands to reason that these people should not be the only ones in the Gyeonggi area, and this is mainly related to the geographical location.

Because Shendu is surrounded by mountains, although there are natural dangers to defend, some county towns are also located in the mountains. The prosperity in the capital is destined to have little to do with these small marginal counties, that is, the merchants who pass by will rest here, but because of the small number of people, not many people will come here to do business.

The road to the county seat is not too rough, but compared to the avenues outside the Shendu City, it can only be regarded as a small road.

"It's strange, why isn't there even a person on this official road?" Jing Liang muttered.

From here, you can already see the outline of the city wall of the county seat, and the county town hidden in the mountains looks very low, and the appearance is very dilapidated.

There was not even a sergeant guarding the gate in front of the county gate, and the neighborhood was very empty, if it weren't for the dusty plaque engraved with the word "Lu Hun" on the city gate, I thought I had taken the wrong way to come here.

Cui Fatzi snorted coldly, he was an official in charge of the Gyeonggi region, and when he saw that there were still such dilapidated places in the jurisdiction, he would naturally not be in a good mood.

"Let's go to a group of people and ask around the village, what's going on?" Cui Fatzi waved his hand, and suddenly some people from behind him scattered in the city.

"Isn't it time for us to come?" Jing Liang raised his head, it was still afternoon, and the sun had not set. A few people spent some time on the road, but it was still daytime.

The whole county was as silent as death, and the doors and windows of the houses on both sides of the road were tightly closed.

How can there be no one?

Tang Yun asked a catcher who was familiar with this place: "Luhun County was originally so desolate?" ”

The catcher looked like he had seen a ghost, looked around, and then said in a trembling voice: "My lord, I came here at the beginning of the year, and there were still many shops on this street at that time. By the way, there is a shopkeeper of a restaurant I know, just around the corner in front, so it's better to ask for a small one. ”

Everyone followed the hunt and hurried over, only to see a three-story restaurant standing on a cross street corner.

This is a good restaurant in the nearby shop. What should have been a crowded city with a large number of guests is now closed and even the extra nailed planks can be seen in the window lattice.

It's not like receiving guests, it's more like preventing others from entering.

Quickly slapped the door with his hand and shouted loudly: "Shopkeeper Ye, open the door!" ”

Tang Yun glanced at it, and he felt that there were many pairs of eyes staring at him from the nearby room.

After taking pictures for a long time, the door of the restaurant opened a crack, and a person asked cautiously, "Why are you here?" ”

"Shopkeeper Ye, this is our lord, I heard that something happened in Luhun County, so I came here in person. What the hell is going on here, why can't you even see a figure? Caught asked suspiciously.

Tang Yun suddenly found a glimmer of light flashing in the shopkeeper's eyes, he looked everyone up and down, quickly pushed the door open, and said, "Officials, please come in!" ”

Tang Yun and Cui Fatzi went in and saw that the huge lobby was empty. The tables and chairs have been folded up, and I don't want to be doing business.

Catch Kuai said strangely: "Shopkeeper Ye, you don't do business anymore, so what kind of work do you expect from this family?" ”

Shopkeeper Ye didn't look very old, but he had a sad look on his face. He let out a long sigh and told the strange things that had happened in the county town recently.
