Chapter 640: Ghost Town

According to Wu Buping, Ghost Street is actually a ghost market in the world. It is actually very common to have a ghost market in the world, and in some places where the yin qi is full of evil spirits, there will always be some ghost ghosts who gather to trade.

Generally speaking, this kind of ghost market only exists in the wilderness, inaccessible places. There are also very few living people entering the ghost market. But Ghost Street is different, this place is actually in the downtown of Fengdu County.

Who said, don't be kidding, if the ghost market is in the middle of the city, how can the residents of Fengdu County live? Isn't everyone in the ghost market? Isn't that?

But don't believe it, sometimes this kind of thing is really not nonsense.

At that time, Fengdu County was still called Xudu County, which recorded in the county annals that one night, a group of outsiders suddenly came to Fengdu County. These outsiders don't know where they came from, and they carry things on their backs to sell on the street, and some of them even set up sheds with sufficient manpower, or sell some food, or open casinos, and set up stage singing.

At that time, the county commander didn't care, thinking that he had fled from somewhere, and ran to Fengdu County to beg for a living, so he arranged for the soldiers to maintain order.

The strangers didn't care, and after thanking the soldiers, they went about their business. Because the goods they brought were better, and the juggling they performed was fun, they really attracted many city residents.

The inhabitants had a great time playing with the strangers on the streets, despite the curfew, but the next day before dawn the strangers hurried out of the city with their belongings.

They wanted to leave the city, but although the soldiers were reluctant, they had no right to stop them, so they let the strangers leave in a hurry. Seeing the hurry of the strangers, even if they were reluctant, the residents had to sigh and prepare to yawn and go back to their homes.

I thought that this matter would end like this, and there was a group of fleeing outsiders who brought some joy to the county, which can be regarded as an adjustment in the difficult days.

Who would have thought that after dawn, something would happen in Fengdu County.

There are dead people in the county, and there are not one or two, but three or four hundred! The main thing is that these people have gone to the streets where the outsiders do business that night.

They died peacefully, and they all left quietly in their sleep. There are some families who go to play on the street, and basically the whole house is dead, and none of them survive.

This incident caused an uproar at the time, and so many people died at once, and the black gauze hat on the head of the county commander must not be saved. But before that, the county magistrate still wants to make things clear, why did so many people die?

After all, there are hundreds of people! Even in an era of war and chaos, so many people can't die for no reason!

The main suspects are naturally those outsiders, and the county order took advantage of the fact that the officials of the criminal department of the imperial court had not yet come, so that the arresters and officials of the county town began to search for those outsiders. The catchers and the officials followed the original witnesses and chased them forward, but only chased them into a mass grave.

Now that the matter has come to an end, there is naturally no clue. But the county magistrate was still unwilling, prepared to summon the whole city, and invited the leader of the next county to help him arrest the murderer. As a result, at this time, an old Taoist priest in a tattered Taoist robe found the county order and said that the county order should not be in vain, and he knew what was going on.
