At night, there is little darkness and the moonlight is lonely.

The hustle and bustle of the day has been replaced by tranquility, and occasionally there is one or two gongs, but under the faint moonlight, the people who play the guard are reminding the dry weather to be careful of the fire candles, and there is a little crisp insect chirping.

"Lord Xiao, the three of you accompanied the village chief Li Sanhuai to inspect the river, and the Shen Dao people didn't have anything abnormal?"

"You put aside the matter of the river god for the time being, this matter has the Taoist chief of Ziyang Temple, and in addition, during the day in the village, the official found that there are villagers who control the evil puppets and harm people, so I suspect that the matter of the river god's sacrifice may be related to the abduction and trafficking of children in the village. Xiao Zhan groaned and said the speculation of the day.

"What do you mean?" Wang Hu's pupils shrank, suppressed the horror in his eyes, and hurriedly asked.

"There is one day tomorrow, and you will take the opportunity to inquire to see what Li Sanhuai's attitude is towards this matter, and to see if he has been involved. ”

"Li Sanhuai is the head of a village, and even if he has not participated in the abduction and trafficking of children by the villagers, he will at least know a thing or two about this matter, or even acquiesce, I don't know what Lord Xiao means by this, so that he can have a clear goal. Wang Hu said.

In his mind, it is absolutely impossible for the head of a village to turn a blind eye to this matter, and since it is certain that some villagers have harmed others with evil laws, why bother to distinguish and directly find evidence, wouldn't it be simpler.

"This person can send someone to Wu'an County to ask for help before the sacrifice, no matter what his purpose is, but as long as he supports us in the next action, it will be easier for us to find evidence......

On the contrary, if all this is just his self-directed and self-acting, we can find some clues more easily. Xiao Zhan patiently explained.

Although he can directly refute Wang Hu's questioning with official authority, in this way, it is inevitable that things will be done casually, and he will not use all his strength.

Moreover, this move can also test whether Wang Zhutou and this Li Village Chief have been in the same boat.

The Demon Division has always been cautious when going out to handle cases, after all, the evil demons have too many demagogic methods, and many times they can't even trust the local government.

"Humble duty understood. Wang Hu nodded, feeling the solemnity in Xiao Zhan's words, and his expression became a little solemn.

"Bang, bang......" At this time, there was a special knock on the door.

"It's okay, it's my people, it's not a special case. Wang Hu pricked up his ears and listened, and hurriedly explained to Xiao Zhan.

"Hmm. Xiao Zhan nodded, without saying much, showing his trust in Wang Hu, and drank the tea on the table, the tea was slightly dry, with a fine aftertaste, but it was not sweet.

"What's the matter?" At the same time, Wang Hu opened the door and saw a catcher standing outside the door, he looked around, and no one was snooping.

"Come in and say. ”

"Village Chief Li sent someone to say that there was something important to discuss with Lord Wang. Catch Zhang Qing into the room, salute the two adults in front of him, and said.

"It's almost time now, why can't you say it tomorrow?" Wang Hu glanced at Xiao Zhan, remembering what the two had discussed, and couldn't help frowning.

The lowly official also asked the visitor, but the person who came only said that the matter was very important, and only then could he tell the adult. Zhang Qing explained stubbornly.

"Where is Zhao Si now?"

"I'm knocking on the side of the hall downstairs. Zhang Qing said quickly.

"Lord Xiao, I'm going to go to the appointment, let's see what's going on, I don't know what your opinion is?" Wang Hu looked at Xiao Zhan.

"Daytime, I am afraid of alarm, you must pay attention to safety when you go, I will follow in the dark. Xiao thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

"Zhang Qing, you have been guarding outside the door to cover, if I and Lord Xiao have not returned, you will immediately return to Wu'an County, and inform the county commander that there are demons in Hegu Village, and quickly send people to quell the chaos. Wang Hu said in a deep voice.

"I understand, please rest assured. Zhang Qing's expression was awe-inspiring, knowing that this matter was very important, and said solemnly.

"In this way, it is also humble. Wang Hu's heart eased, and after saying goodbye to Xiao Zhan, he went out.

After a while, he and Zhao Si downstairs followed the people sent by the village chief to take advantage of the night and leave quickly.

"That person acted decisively during the day, if it wasn't for the village chief's temptation at this moment, that person might take the opportunity to make a move......" Watching Wang Hu and the others go away, after confirming that no one was snooping, Xiao Zhan glanced at Zhang Qing outside the door, jumped out of the window, and escaped into the night.

......

"Village chief, no, village chief ......" In front of a large mansion, a young man hurriedly slapped the porter.

"Why are you so alarmed?" said the porter who guarded the door, impatiently opening the half-closed door.

"Brother Erniu, go and inform the village chief, the officers and soldiers of the day kidnapped Brother Li Kui for some reason and broke into the ancestral ancestral hall, and now the elders of the two clans have brought people over. The young man said hurriedly.

"What?" Er Niu, who was guarding the door, was shocked when he heard this, and suddenly a side of officers and soldiers making trouble in the ancestral hall and injuring the clansmen suddenly appeared in his mind, and he immediately said.

"Genzi, you wait here, don't run anywhere. ”

Soon, the house was brightly lit, and after a commotion, Li Sanhuai trotted all the way followed by a burly green-skinned man with clothes in one hand and a lamp in the other, which was obviously the second cow brother in Genzi's mouth.

"Root, quick, lead the way. As soon as Li Sanhuai went out, he yelled, and at the same time took the clothes in Erniu's hand and put them on as he walked.

......

Ancestral hall, hall.

"Where is the village chief?" Wang Hu looked at the ancestral tablet on the tablet, glanced at the empty people in the hall, and immediately frowned and looked at the young man who led the way.

"The village chief is behind the hall, and my lord will come with me. Li Kui bowed his head and said respectfully.

"However, the village chief has explained to the villain, and it is best for only the two of them to know about what they talked about this time, so please ...... adults"

"Zhao Si, you stay here. Wang Hu thought for a moment, glanced at the ordinary young man, and said to the catcher who came with him.

"Obedience. Zhao Si clenched his fists, glanced at Li Kui, and stood outside the hall.

"Your Excellency, please come in, the village chief has been waiting for a long time. Li Kui didn't care, just pointed to the bright hall, and said respectfully, with a trace of disdain in his eyes.

"Hmph. Wang Hu looked at the porter, remembered what Xiao Zhan had said before, snorted coldly, and stepped in.

After a while, the door was closed, but it didn't take long for Zhao Si, who was guarding the door, to suddenly change his expression, only to hear an angry roar from inside the house.

"Li Sanhuai, you are so bold, even if you plot to kill the court officials. In Wang Hu's angry voice, Zhao Si pulled out the steel knife and was about to rush into the door.

Bang!

Suddenly, there was a loud bang, and a big hole suddenly broke out in the doors and windows next to him, and Wang Hu's burly body, like a leaky sandbag, flew out of the house and slammed into the huge wooden pillar in the hall.

People are still in the air, and there is blood spraying out.

"Your Excellency. Zhao Si was shocked and changed color, and he was about to rush over.

"Watch out for the back. Wang Hu, who fell to the ground, reminded while spurting blood in his mouth, regardless of the pain in his chest.
