Shanyin County, County Yahoutang.

"Zhao Zhutou, tell the three adults about it!"

The county commander Wu Huan first called his subordinates, and then showed a flattering smile to the visitor: "Inspector Xiao is not in a hurry, this official will fully cooperate with this case!" ”

To tell the truth, in the cold winter season, Wu Huan was very unhappy when he was disturbed early in the morning, but his anger suddenly dissipated when he saw someone coming.

Xiao Qingman, one of the twelve envoys of the Jing Demon Division and the Yamen of the Prefecture, killed many evil cultivators with an autumn cicada sword, and he was already famous at a young age, and there were many admirers.

More importantly, she is a child of the Xiao family!

In Dayan, the royal family, the great religion, and the family can be described as a three-legged stand.

Needless to say, the royal family naturally relied on the magic of sealing gods to control the luck of the human race.

All kinds of large and small sects and folk lineages have been inherited for a long time, and their disciples are all over the world, or they have traveled to the rivers and lakes, or they have entered the court as officials, and the vines are entangled, and their strength is extraordinary.

The Maison, on the other hand, is a special existence.

They usually have a long history, dominate one side in troubled times, and the world is peaceful and enter the court as officials, accumulated for countless generations, and the background is unfathomable.

The Xiao family in Bingzhou is one of them, which rose during the Chu Dynasty thousands of years ago.

Although this Xiao Qingman is only a child of the Xiao family, it is far from being offended by a small county order of his small county.

"Wu County Order, this official has been disturbed a lot, and I hope to forgive my sins."

In the face of the county order Wu Huan currying favor, Xiao Qingman's face was as usual, and he was courteous, but his eyes were staring at the head hunting next to him.

Zhao Kang, the head catcher in Shanyin County, did not dare to slack off, and talked about the experience in detail.

"Returning to the Patrol Envoy, this case was handed over by the nearby Yongan County, saying that the head of the county, Wu Laosan, colluded with evil cultivators, and then was exterminated and died tragically."

"That Wu Laosan has a lot of power in this county, and he doesn't dare to despise it, so when he returns the body, he leads people to quickly control and inquire about the Wu family, and gets a message from his subordinates."

"Since half a year ago, there have often been outsiders in and out of the back house of the Wu family, and their whereabouts are sneaky only at night.

With that, he presented the yellow paper scroll in his hand.

Xiao Qingman took it, just looked at it, and his eyes were full of murder: "That's right, it's this demon way!" ”

On the painting, it is a Taoist man dressed in a hundred clothes, with a short and fat body and a huge belly, like a pear. Especially that face, with a pointed nose and small eyes and a small mouth, with a strange smile, like a big mouse.

This world painter also has a unique heritage, the master painted people and ghosts, illusion and trickery are mysterious and unpredictable, this picture is vivid, at first glance it is made by a public painter.

When Zhao Kang, the head catcher, saw the appearance of Wu County's order, he knew that the identity of the girl in front of him was extraordinary, and he immediately made a statement of righteous indignation: "This An rat is running around with his subordinates, and he has done a lot of bloody cases, and his subordinates can't wait to do it..."

"Getting to the point!"

The scar-faced man Zhao Bandao saw the girl Xiao Qingman frowning, and immediately interrupted Zhao Zhutou to boast.

"Yes, yes..."

Zhao Zhutou smiled embarrassedly, "Although the Wu family has been arrested in batches, it is a pity that those evil cultivators have left with Wu Laosan half a month ago, and the Wu family has not found any clues." ”

Xiao Qingman's face was expressionless: "Take us there!" ”

Zhao Zhutou didn't dare to slack off, and immediately took the three of them to Wufu, which had already been seized.

It can be seen that Wu Laosan has made a lot of money in front of him, and the courtyard of Sanjin is exquisite and rich, but at this time, the huge mansion has long been chaotic and empty.

Officials are sometimes more ruthless than passing bandits.

Zhao Zhutou's face was embarrassed, and he hurriedly explained: "My lord, I have almost turned Wufu upside down, and no clues to the thief have been found. ”

Xiao Qingman didn't pay attention to it, and nodded slightly at the gorgeous young woman Li Chunniang next to her.

I saw Li Chunniang take a step forward, and three incense sticks suddenly appeared in her hand, spontaneously combusted without wind, and the green smoke was miao, and at the same time, the fingers holding the incense changed continuously: "The five immortals have a fragrant hall, and the hall is for the five immortals, the eleventh generation disciple Li Chunniang, respectfully invite Fourth Sister Su to come up!" ”

With that, he slowly closed his eyes.

Suddenly the wind blew in the courtyard, and snow flew on the trees.

Li Chunniang opened her eyes suddenly, and her pupils had become almond-shaped.

I saw that she seemed to be a different person, her waist was twisted gently without bones, showing laziness and charm, yawned, sniffed and frowned: "Oh, what a big rat smell, it's really smoked to death, and the slave family is not a dog, do this kind of thing......"

Although she complained, she still kept sniffling and closed her eyes at the same time: "In addition to the big mouse, there are five people, the smell of ghosts is quite strong, and there is a bloody resentment, it's really... That's all. ”

With that, he yawned again, and when he opened his eyes again, his pupils had returned to normal.

Xiao Qingman didn't care, her eyes were full of thoughts: "The smell of rats... It is rumored that An Rat Sheng is a rat demon, is it true? This guy was hunted down and killed by the seniors of the Yin Sect three years ago, and since then he has been hiding his whereabouts with his five ghosts..."

Suddenly, she looked at Zhao Zhutou: "Tell me about this Wu Laosan!" ”

Zhao Zhutou hurriedly replied: "Lord Hui, since this Wu Laosan arrived three years ago, he has taken the position of the local team leader, and in addition to opening a gambling house to collect money, there is nothing abnormal... Oh, by the way, it is rumored that he can tattoo and seal ghosts, but no one has seen it, and he has married several wives and concubines and has not had children. ”

Li Chunniang, a beautiful young woman, said with a smile: "Then it goes without saying, it must be one of the five ghosts under An Mousesheng, who has changed his face and hidden, and you are living a stable life in Shanyin County." ”

Zhao Zhutou sweated on his forehead and bowed his head silently.

The first is that the old man does not respect the county government on weekdays, and the second is that he is afraid for a while when he thinks of such a murderous guy hiding by his side for several years.

Xiao Qingman didn't care about Zhao Zhutou's thoughts, and said in a deep voice: "An Moosheng reunited with the five ghosts under him, it must be a plot, and it must be investigated." Let's go, we..."

Zhao Bandao, the scar-faced man next to him, suddenly said: "Miss, since An Mousesheng has gathered all his subordinates, we can't act rashly, wait for Inspector Chen to come." ”

Xiao Qingman took a deep breath: "Okay! ”

A few hours later, Chen Qiong arrived with two subordinates, and after asking about the passage, he immediately ordered someone to find out all the account books of Wu Laosan in the past few years, and found suspicious points after a check:

"In February of the third year of Xianqing, 100 live pigs were shipped to Yong'an..."

"In April of the third year of Xianqing, hundreds of live cattle were transported to Yong'an..."

“……”

"In May of the fourth year of Xianqing, 100 craftsmen went to Yong'an..."

Chen Qiong frowned: "There are few people in Yong'an County, and there is no profit at all to do this... Oh no, it's in the blood sacrifice! ”

Everyone in the Jing Demon Division looked at each other, their faces solemn.

………

Yongan County, northern mountains.

The sky is low, and the mountains are winding and undulating.

Two teams of black dots walked among the snow-covered hills, leaving long footprints behind them.

The march in the field is already hard, not to mention that in this icy and snowy land, many government soldiers have already frozen to the point that their faces are pale, and the tips of their hair are full of ice slag.

Wang Xuan is physically strong, naturally not afraid, his eyes are sharp, and he always pays attention to the movements around him.

Yong'an County is surrounded by mountains, and he naturally chose the north because he often cultivates here, but it is the first time that he has gone so deep.

At this moment, Zhang Heng was lying in the snow in the distance, and he arched his hand and said, "Lord Hui, I have found a camping site!" ”

Both Zhang Heng and Liu Shun have been in the border army, although they have not mixed up the future, but they are very familiar with the matter of marching in the field, after all, the environment near the Great Wall of Ice and Snow in the north is even worse.

The camp is well sited, backed by a cliff to protect it from the wind, with trees at least a kilometer apart on both sides, and a small stream opposite with a spring under the ice.

Set up tents, lay guards, bury fires and cook rice...

Although the soldiers were all newcomers, they were originally stonemasons, so they worked in an orderly manner under the command of Zhang Heng, and set up a camp after a while.

This is also the reason why Wang Xuan wants to train in winter, not only to hone his mental physique, but also to master some marching skills without practice.

Of course, Wang Xuan's task was heavier, he was standing on the cliff at the moment, holding a bow and arrow, and his eyes were full of evil eyes.

Ever since he entered the wilderness, he had a feeling of being targeted...
