Xinyue Village, this is the fourth time Liu Yu has come to this backward and dilapidated poor village.

There was not a single person on the rugged village road.

Li Zheng, who is in his fifties, has wrinkled his face with a smile, nodding his head and licking his waist to please the dog.

If Yun Xi and the others were here, they would definitely be able to recognize him at a glance as Lao Xie who showed them the way to Xiaofeng's house not long ago.

"My lord, according to your orders, I have asked the villagers to stay at home without leaving the house, and I am waiting for you to come and search."

"Don't worry, our Crescent Village is an honest person, and we will definitely not harbor the criminals of the imperial court."

"Everyone is a farmer who does his duty, and if someone comes to the village, he will report to you as soon as possible."

Liu Yu only felt that he was noisier than before, and glanced at him dissatisfied.

As everyone knows, he is so abnormal, not because he wants to leave a positive impression in front of him, but because he has a weak heart.

Yes, Xie Li is desperate for fear that the official will find out that he led this group of people to Xiaofeng's house without permission a few days ago will be exposed.

When he saw the wanted portraits of Yun Xi and others, he didn't sleep well.

He should have thought of it, how could twenty taels of silver be easy to earn for the journey!

Xie Lizheng was worried in his heart for several days, and his bowels were blue with remorse.

If he only brought those people into the village in the city, then he could have made it clear to the officials generously, but the problem was that he not only brought people into the village, but also brought people into the village knowing that the other party had gone to Xiaofeng's house.

He knew that he shouldn't have been found that day, but he didn't dare to bet, what if! What if someone actually sees him?

By then, he wouldn't be able to speak even if he had ten mouths.

Damn, a family of broom stars, dead and still don't let people live in peace.

Xie Li was secretly cursing in his heart, forgetting how much he had benefited from the Lin family and the government in the first place.

Liu Yu took the officials and officers and soldiers to search one by one, and soon arrived near Xiaofeng's house.

"My lord, several families around here have already moved away, and there is no one, so there is no need to search, right?" Sheri's words are full of selfishness.

Liu Yu looked at the sweaty man and asked casually, "Xie Lizheng, are you very hot?" ”

Xie Li hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, no, it's not hot, I'm old, I'm useless, I'm tired after walking a few steps, heh, hehe......"

He smiled flatteringly, and Liu Yu looked at his gray hair on his temples and did not doubt him.

"You say there's no one around here? Why? When I came here before, these houses were still very lively. ”

As soon as Xie Li heard that the opportunity had come, he hurriedly took a few steps closer to the other party, lowered his voice and pretended to be mysterious: "My lord, you don't know, the Feng family is haunted, and the surrounding neighbors are deeply affected by it, so this is ......."

He added fuel and vinegar to the haunting of the Feng family, and hoped that the other party would be afraid of the ghosts and gods and give up searching this area.

As everyone knows, what he did aroused Liu Yu's suspicions even more.

Yes, the brothers said that they chased people here yesterday and lost them, and then they were deliberately led to the mountains in circles.

Don't......

"Really haunted?!"

"Yes, all the folks in this area have moved away."

"Wouldn't it? Xie Lizheng, don't you see that family's chimney is still smoking? ”

Xie Li was looking in the direction of his finger, and scolded Mu Yong in his heart, and said quietly: "Harm, my lord, you don't know. ”

"That's Mu Yong's family, and he's a well-known evil star in a few villages around us."

"Since I was a child, my parents, relatives and friends, I didn't know where to get a little wild seed as a daughter when I grew up, and his daughter was even more amazing, anyone who had contact with her, no one was safe."

"The people in this radius of several miles hide when they see their father and daughter, and when they see the ghosts, they are afraid that they will have to take a detour and dare not come forward."

"And what's going on? Then you didn't think of driving people out of the village? An officer and soldier asked with some curiosity.

Xie Lizheng's face changed: "Official, you don't know, just their house, the villagers didn't go to set fire to it in the middle of the night, and they wanted to burn the father and daughter to death. Not a single success. ”

When Liu Yu heard this, he also became curious: "What do you say?" ”

"It's either snow or rain, and the thatched hut that caught fire can't burn at all, it's weird."

"It took two burns, and the house burned to ashes, and guess what happened the next day? People are still alive and well in front of everyone, and the house has been rebuilt. ”

Liu Yu's back was cold when he heard this, and he looked at the direction of Mu Yong's house with some fear. There was a faint retreat in his heart, and he had to take into account the orders of Governor Xu.

He subconsciously looked at the officers and soldiers who had interjected earlier.

In fact, this search found out that he was in charge on the surface, but in fact, only a few insiders knew that the real leader was Shi Wu, the newly appointed leader of the officer and soldier squad.

Shi Wu knew that he was cowardly when he saw Liu Yu's eyes, but he didn't show disdain in his heart.

"I'm going to go and see if the Mu family's father and daughter are really as evil as Xie Lizheng said?"

"Brothers, you have to search carefully, search carefully, let the suspect go, beware of going back, Lord Xu picked our skin."

He glanced at Xie Lizheng meaninglessly, with a smile on his face.

Cherry was pinching his thighs to maintain his sanity, for fear of revealing the slightest flaw.

"Go, brothers. Making a fortune is just around the corner. ”

With Shi Wu's order, the officers and soldiers immediately walked in the direction of the Mu family.

Seeing this, Liu Yu could only stubbornly glance at his subordinates.

The other party is also an old subordinate who has known him for many years, and he understands his thoughts without saying much.

"Brothers, since Brother Shi and they have already gone to the Mu family, then let's search these few families with no one together, don't let the thieves take advantage of the loopholes."

Liu Yu smiled with satisfaction, but Xie Lizheng wanted to cry.

The look in the eyes and specious words of the officer and soldier when he was leaving just now frightened him, and he couldn't think about it too much.

Mu Yong looked at the officers and soldiers who suddenly appeared, and cowered and protected his trembling daughter in his arms, and lowered his head on his toes.

On the other hand, the girl stood facing Mu Yong's direction, burying her head in her adoptive father's arms with some fear. The small body shook from time to time, and it seemed that he was obviously frightened.

Shi Wu glanced at the father and daughter in surprise, there was really no way to match the person in front of him with the person Xie Lizheng was talking about.

"You are Mu Yong? Is this the adopted daughter you picked up? ”

"Yes, yes, yes, it's the villain."

Shi Wu looked at the man who was so frightened that he couldn't even speak.

"I heard that your father and son are very evil, and they can't be burned to death by fire?!"
