Chapter 41: The County Guard's Mansion
After that, the county guard began to kill people non-stop. At first, one died in ten days, and then one was unlucky in three or five days. Just recently, one or several dead bodies have been brought out every day.
When the first day of death, the county keeper moved with his family to live elsewhere. However, other cadres, such as slaves and maids, miscellaneous servants, etc., were all to be guarded in the county guard mansion, and even sent a thousand soldiers with strong bows and crossbows to surround the county guard mansion. In addition to checking dead at regular intervals every day, as long as anyone dares to come out of it, they will be shot on the spot.
Seeing that there were fewer and fewer living people in the county guard's mansion, at this time, the county guard made another unbelievable decision. He sent officers and soldiers to bring out all the felons held in the prison, and put these prisoners in the county guard's mansion, and after that day, the dead people who were brought out again were mixed with the corpses of these criminals.
Since then, every time a certain number of people have died in the county guard's house, the prisoners in the prison will be pulled in to fill in the number. Until last month, the prison in Liaoxi County was empty. It didn't take long for news to begin to spread among the victims of the disaster in Liaodong outside the city.
After listening to Boss Zhao's words, Gui Fu and Wu Mian glanced at each other. Then, he bared his teeth at Boss Zhao and said, "The county guard has the official spirit to protect it, and it is so fierce, you still dare to stay in this city." Aren't you afraid that hungry ghosts will come to your door?"
Boss Zhao scratched his scalp, and he also looked like he couldn't figure it out, and said, "Don't mention it, this matter is evil here." When we were in Liaodong County a few years ago, it was a mess for hundreds of miles. The towns farther away from Liaoxi County were shocked to the point of collapse of houses, but even this Liaoxi County did not shake down a single tile. There was also a great drought last year, and the entire Great Qin Dynasty was affected, and Liaodong was almost the same if there was no harvest. Only this Liaodong County has a few light rains from time to time in a radius of dozens of miles. After autumn, the ground is full of yellow and clear wheat, and my eyes are red when I see it, if it weren't for the layer of skin that was dressed in the pavilion at that time, it was a bit taboo. I would have brought someone to rob it a long time ago. That's why after the disaster, we all came to Liaoxi County."
Speaking of this, Boss Zhao paused, and after taking a sigh of relief, he continued: "Don't look at the fierce trouble in the county guard's mansion, but as long as you leave the gate of the county guard's mansion, there will be nothing." Otherwise, there are 1,800 soldiers standing at the door, why is there nothing going on?"
Listening to what Boss Zhao said, the eyes of the non-returnable have narrowed into a line. He smiled at Wu Mian, but didn't speak, just turned his head to the center of Liaoxi County. According to common sense, it should be the approximate location of the county warden's office.
Seeing that the old man and the young didn't speak, Boss Zhao was a little unsure. He didn't understand what they meant. After hesitating for a moment, he laughed dryly and said, "The two of you didn't eat well just now, so I will mix a few dishes, and there is really a jar of good wine in the store." Let's talk while drinking, and we'll talk about it after we've had enough to eat."
As soon as Boss Zhao finished speaking, he saw Wu Mian suddenly turn around, and said to him in a bit of a daze: "I don't want the golden cake......
The sudden joy made Boss Zhao a little unacceptable for a while, he suspected that he had heard it wrong, his eyes widened, and he said to Wu Mian: "What did you say?
"I don't want the golden cake, but there is a condition-" Wu Mian said here, pausing. He tilted his chin to the Gui Yi and said, "You get him into the county guard's mansion, as long as his people enter it." The golden cake you owe me is yours."
And whether to return or not seems to have thought that Wu Mian would send him to the county guard's mansion, and after smiling bitterly, he didn't say anything, which can be regarded as a tacit acquiescence.
Although I don't know what the old man in front of me wants to do when he enters the county guard's mansion. But since Wu Mianhua made his debut, he Boss Zhao has to take over. Otherwise, it's hard to say who the two pieces of gold cake belonged to in the end. However, this is a difficult problem for Boss Zhao. Not to mention now, even the original county guard was not a place where you just came and left. It's not easy to get into it with or without returning.
After thinking about it for a long time, Boss Zhao still didn't think of a way. I can only curse in my heart: These two people who eat white food, can't they take two steps forward? How did several restaurants in front of them find me? Boss Zhao muttered in his heart, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said to whether he would return or not: "There is a way to send you in......
In the evening of the same day, the officers and soldiers defending the city found an old man in ragged clothes under the city gate, shivering in the cold wind. But now the order has been given to the stranger to be caught, and this old man doesn't look like a man who can live for a few years anyway, even if he is unlucky.
In this way, that night, Gui Wugui and a dozen other people were temporarily locked up in a prison in the west of the county for one night. Early the next morning. The other two dozen or so people were kicked out of the prison, pressed by the sergeant, and went straight to the position of the county guard
When they arrived, there were already five or six dead bodies on the ground of the county guard's house. These corpses were all bloody and stabbed, and not all of them were whole corpses, one of the corpses could no longer be put together, and the pieces were still carried out with a dustpan, and the few people who were arrested together with Gui Wu were terrified when they saw this scene.
At this time, the gate of the county guard mansion had been opened, and several people were pressed by the sergeant at the gate, and when his foot stepped into the county guard's mansion, a gas that seemed to be there reached his body along the sweat pores of the whole body. An indescribable taste filled his body.
It was only after a few people came in that they found that the entire interior of the county guard mansion was filled with a thin layer of mist, and the further they went inside, the thicker the fog became. However, this fog seemed to be visible only to themselves, and the rest of the people still looked around in horror.
At that moment, there was a sound of footsteps from inside the inner hall. Then a thin man appeared in front of everyone. This person is not polite, and after meeting, the thin man said: "I am the steward here, called Wu Zhen......"
