Chapter Seventy-Seven: Things Are Unexpected
The night was quiet, and the yamen of the city was quiet.
Wang Tong has been re-placed in the deepest cell, where he is under strict guard.
Inside the study.
Wu Zongshan's expression was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Gongzi Zhou, what you said is true?
"It's just a suspicion, but it can't be ruled out that it's a trick. Zhou Heng groaned: "If this is the case, this matter is no longer something you and I can handle." ”
Although he didn't know how powerful the ghost thing that had lived for thousands of years was, he could be sure that whether it was himself or Wu Zongshan, in the face of such a ghost thing, he would definitely die.
"It is suspected that he has lived for thousands of years, and he has also mentioned the Battle of Tianyang......" Wu Zongshan was as big as a fight for a while, and said with a straight face: "Gongzi Zhou, the matter is very important, I need to ask my superiors for instructions."
"However, according to common sense, the ghosts in Yuyang County should not be so advanced. ”
"Oh?" Zhou Heng was puzzled when he heard this: "How can you see it?"
"Because Yuyang County is just an ordinary county seat. Wu Zongshan said: "The ghosts that can live for thousands of years have their own personality and realm above the four grades.
"A ghost thing of this level, once it escapes, it will definitely lead to a monstrous catastrophe and ruin the lives of people. Therefore, if such a ghost thing is really sealed there, it will not be left unguarded.
"Of course, more than 3,000 years have passed since the Battle of Tianyang, and time has passed, maybe there is really a seal and a ban to lose its guards, and it may be reduced to an ordinary area. ”
"It's a possibility, 3,000 years is too long. Zhou Heng bowed slightly, but he noticed another piece of information from Wu Zongshan's words, "After the Battle of Tianyang, many similar ghost things were sealed?"
There are extremely few records about the Battle of Tianyang in the world, and most of the books that Zhou Heng can find are vague, only explaining the cause and effect, and the details of the process in the middle are either mentioned in one stroke or not mentioned at all.
This made Zhou Heng's understanding of the history of the Battle of Tianyang extremely vague, and he didn't even establish a basic framework.
I didn't expect to discuss the matter of ghosts with Wu Zongshan, and I could also learn some secrets of past history.
It was unexpected.
- The world is full of dangers and ghosts, and they have existed since the ancient past.
Therefore, Zhou Heng felt that if he wanted to make himself and the people around him safe, in addition to strengthening his own strength, he also needed to know more about history and history.
In many cases, familiarity with the historical secrets of the past can mean the difference between life and death.
"When Daqi was first built, ghosts were raging in various places, and the people were struggling to make a living, and a lot of ghosts of a similar degree were sealed. Wu Zongshan did not elaborate, and said: "If the ghost things in Yuyang County really have that level, I am afraid that it will only require the power of the heavenly people." ”
"Hopefully not. Zhou Heng said in a deep voice: "However, there is a ghost thing that is not weak under Yuyang County, it should be certain. Most of the rumored 'treasures' in the past six months are its efforts to break away from the seal.
"Maybe since Chen Hanyu of the Red Flower Palace appeared in Yuyang County half a year ago, that ghost thing has begun to prepare for all this, trying to break the seal and get out of trouble. ”
The various abilities shown by the ghost "Yu Yan" attached to Chen Hanyu's body are all reflected in the body of "Xuanyang", and Chen Hanyu only had an accident after passing through Yuyang County.
Therefore, Zhou Heng has reason to suspect that there may be a close connection between "Xuanyang" and "Yu Yan".
"Well, it's possible. Wu Zongshan agreed with Zhou Heng's speculation, nodded and said, "The matter of Yuyang County must be treated with caution......
Buzzing!
At this moment, the bookshelf not far from Zhou Heng and Wu Zongshan suddenly shook, as if something was about to rush out of it.
Zhou Heng was slightly stunned when he saw this, and then said, "Lord Wu, then I'll avoid it first?"
"Not necessarily. Wu Zongshan shook his head slightly, walked towards the bookshelf, twisted the mechanism, opened the dark grid, and said: "It should be the news of the Zhou Tian Patrol Division, let Gongzi know, and it will be harmless." ”
Then, Wu Zongshan took out an apricot-yellow piece of paper from the dark compartment, on which were densely written words, each of which shone with a bright silver light like a star.
The Huangtong Mansion Lord looked at the words on it, breathed a long sigh of relief, then put it away, closed the dark grid, turned to Zhou Heng and smiled: "Okay, we don't have to worry, regarding the situation in Yuyang County, the Zhou Tian Patrol Division has been investigating for a long time, and it has already achieved results." ”
"Is the investigation clear?" Zhou Heng's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said with a smile: "That's fine, but what level is the ghost thing sealed there, and how to deal with it?"
"Three hundred years ago, there was a peerless master of the four grades of martial arts, who sealed a ghost thing there. Wu Zongshan smiled and said: "That ghost thing was at the level of the fifth grade back then, and now that it has been imprisoned for so many years, it would be good to have the strength of the sixth grade level left."
"The Zhou Tian Patrol Division will send two star envoys over to investigate the situation of the seal, and strengthen the seal according to the situation, and evacuate the residents of Yuyang County to a certain extent. ”
"Well, you can rest assured. Zhou Heng nodded and smiled.
He was also very satisfied with this result, originally he planned to report the matter of Yuyang County to the official, report it to the Zhou Tian Patrol Division, and let professional people deal with professional matters.
Now that the people of the Zhou Tian Patrol Division have gone by themselves, everyone is even more happy.
"Haha! The Zhou Tian Patrol Division has already made a move, so we don't have to worry about it. Wu Zongshan also looked relieved, and said with a smile: "Son, go home and rest first, and I will send someone to pick you up tomorrow and go to see the big mansion." ”
A mansion in the northern part of the city.
This is the reward that Wu Zongshan promised to Zhou Heng, and now that he has arrested Wang Tong, he will naturally have to cash it out.
"Then it's troublesome for Lord Wu. The smile on Zhou Heng's face was strong, and he was in a good mood.
After all, his greatest pursuit in the past two years, that is, to have a mansion of his own in this Huangtong Mansion City, to truly settle down, has finally been realized.
It's just that in his heart, he already has a higher goal.
Of course, the house still has to be seen.
Then he took his leave and turned away.
After going home, he carefully inspected the things found on the two people he had killed on the way to Yuyang County, and then opened the newly obtained lucky bag.
However, before leaving the study, Zhou Heng suddenly thought of a question and asked, "Lord Wu, did the name of that ghost be mentioned in the letter of Zhou Tian Patrol Division?"
"Ahh Wu Zongshan said very casually: "The name of the ghost thing is called Heyang, the fusion of He, the yang of the sun." ”
"Heyang ......" The smile on Zhou Heng's face suddenly froze.
Not Xuanyang??
