Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Master of the White River

Anxian County is a small city, with a resident population of less than 400 households, although it is backed by the White River, but not every city backed by the White River can develop a ferry, Anxian County due to the geographical location, and because it is not too far from Nanyang, the development value is too low, there is no birth of a large ferry, only some small ferries built by the people, most of them have been abandoned so far.

A small city with two or three hundred households can build a wind-catching yamen, which can already praise the Lieming Dynasty for its abundant martial virtues.

In a small town like this that uncles don't love and grandmothers don't love, if it weren't for the fact that there are more bandits in Nanyang County, it is estimated that they would not have built a wind-catching yamen to monitor the Quartet.

But it's also thanks to the fact that there is a wind chasing yamen here, otherwise if there is only an ordinary yamen, those catchers will not patrol the mountains, even if some hunters enter the mountain and find Changyou, they will definitely not recognize it as Changyou, and most of them will be treated as spirits.

After reporting to the yamen, Anxian County will at most send out a quick patrol around, if there is no injury incident, it will be a big thing, and it is best to have nothing at all, so as to stabilize the career of the county order.

When he arrived at the city gate, he woke up the sleepy doorman on the side, and after obtaining the position of the wind chasing yamen, Ye Buyu went straight to the yamen without dragging mud and water at all.

The wind chasing yamen of Anxian County is located on the street on the left side of the county office, which is located on the left side of the center of Anxian County, like the location of the human heart.

Although the county government is also protected by the official spirit of the Lieming Dynasty, if there is a big demon, it can only rely on the wind chasing yamen to resist, so the yamen cannot be too far away from the county yamen.

As soon as the county government was broken, the official spirit overflowed, and the city was destroyed.

The wind chasing yamen in Anxian County is said to be the yamen, but in fact it is only a hundred households, three into three large courtyards, and there are 50 well-trained wind catchers.

"Baihe Tiansheng of Anxian County, Nanyang County visited the two Lingtai adults. ”

Not long after Yun Yizi and the two arrived at the Yamen, Baihu personally brought people over to receive them.

Ye Buyu is a vigorous and resolute master, he doesn't like this kind of politeness, and he said straight to the point: "Who is the one who found Changyou?"

A head catcher in a green coat beside Tian Sheng stood up: "Lord Huilingtai, it's a lower official." ”

"Lead the way. Ye Buyu didn't give him a chance to introduce himself, and ordered directly.

The head catcher glanced at Tian Sheng, and the two quickly made some eye contact, Tian Sheng spoke: "Lord Lingtai, Anxian County has been shocked to see a strange beast on the right side, and the lower officials are inevitably responsible, and they are willing to go together to assist in the investigation!"

Changyou is a warning of strange beasts, there will be floods when they appear, and Changyou County found Changyou, which means that there must be something wrong with Baihe, and he has a certain responsibility as a hundred households, if he can follow the people of Qin Tianjian this time, even if he fails, the sin is not so big.

If you can calm down the trouble, you may be able to take this opportunity to be promoted.

It's a pity that Ye Buyu is familiar with officialdom culture, and said impatiently: "It's enough for him to lead the way alone." ”

Tian Sheng paused, sighed, and glanced at the headcatcher.

The head catcher said, "Two adults, please here." ”

Before leaving, Yun Yizi glanced at Tian Sheng with his magic eye, and a phantom of a blood axe contaminated with red and black qi could be vaguely seen floating behind Tian Sheng.

"This head catcher, the blade of your family's hundred household envoys is an axe?" Yun Yizi asked.

The head catcher who led the way in front looked back at Yun Yizi, nodded and said, "It is worthy of Lord Lingtai, Tian Baihu is famous for his Xuanhua axe." ”

Yun Yizi didn't see anything unusual, so he didn't ask any more.

The group went out of the city and went straight to the arbor forest ten miles outside the city, where the back was against the White River, and Changyou also appeared there.

"How did the head catcher find out about Chang You?"

Ye Buyu was silent all the way, and he had no desire to collect information, Yun Yizi was full of doubts, so he had to ask himself.

The head catcher said while walking: "Five days ago, Nanyang City issued a sea fishing document, saying that there were rogues who fled to the territory of Anxian County, so we took people to inspect the surroundings, and when we found the son, we were ready to return to the city, and when we heard a strange moaning sound through the arbor forest, I thought it was an injured rogue, so I chased it in. ”

"After chasing into the arbor forest for about ten feet, we saw a human-faced macaque with four ears whining at us, and we thought it was a spirit at first, but we did it. ”

Yun Yizi asked at the right time: "What happened later?"

The head catcher said: "The human-faced macaque was hit by an arrow, but it didn't fight back, but with a long roar, it turned into a cloud of black gas and dissipated. ”

"Wait. ”

Ye Buyu stopped and glanced at the headcatcher: "Although Changyou is not a rui beast, it is a warning beast, how can there be black qi?"

Black gas is often synonymous with demonic energy.

Changyou, as an early warning beast, belongs to the neutral order, and the breath on his body should be the color of the moon.

The head catcher shook his head and said, "The lower officials don't know either." ”

Ye Buyu thoughtfully: "Continue to lead the way." ”

Yun Yizi also continued to ask, "What happened later?"

"Later, I went back to report to Lord Baihu, who speculated that the human-faced macaque might be Changyou, so he ordered someone to go to Nanyang City overnight to invite a Lingtai Lord, and went to Baihe to check the water level the next morning, and found that the water level had skyrocketed by several feet, and continued to rise. ”

The head catcher was chattering, and Yun Yizi's magic eyes also kept looking at the state of the head catcher, and found that he was not lying.

But Yun Yizi always felt a little unusual, especially when Ye Buyu asked why Changyou had black gas, the unusual feeling was deeper.

As Mo Xue said, the seeker trusts his intuition.

Yun Yizi thinks that this incident may not be so simple, but there is too little information at present, so he can only go to the scene of the crime first.

The wind catchers of the Wind Catching Yamen are all warriors, and their feet are not slower than horses, and Ye Buyu didn't want the three of them to squeeze on his flying sword, so he ran all the way, and it took about half an hour to run outside the arbor forest.

After entering the arbor forest and walking for tea, they came to the place where they had met Changyou earlier.

The head catcher gasped and pointed to a towering tree in the sky: "We... Is... On that tree... See the long right... It's also from... Disappear there. ”

Yun Yizi and Ye Buyu raised their heads at the same time, swept around the tree, and sure enough, they found a faint wisp of black gas.

Ye Buyu looked thoughtful, flashed to the tree, took the black gas that had not overflowed in his hand, and put it into a small porcelain bottle the size of two fingers.

After he came down, Yun Yizi asked, "What did you find?"

Ye Buyu said: "The demonic spirit is pure, it will not disperse after a few days of exposure to the sun, there is a problem with that long right, let's go to Baihe to have a look." ”

Yun Yizi thought for a while and couldn't help but ask, "Isn't there a mountain god or land here?"

The head catcher shook his head and said: "Not all mountains and forests have mountain gods or land, not to mention that the two sides of the Bai River Valley are the land of Bai Jun, let alone the birth of land and mountain gods." ”

"Who is Bai Jun?" Yun Yizi asked again.

Ye Buyu opened his mouth and said, "The master of the White River. ”

When Yun Yizi heard this, he said again: "Since Baihe has a lord, why don't we ask Baijun directly?"

The two looked at him at the same time, and Yun Yizi was stunned: "Did I say something wrong?"

The head catcher probably also found out from Yun Yizi's large number of questions that he was the new Qi Master of Qin Tianjian, and explained: "Bai Jun is the river god canonized by the Heavenly Court, and it is not under our control. And for Heavenly Court, the occurrence of floods is a common thing, and they will not prevent it. ”

Yun Yizi wondered: "Shouldn't the river god be responsible for regulating the river? He is not responsible for preventing floods, so what is the use of this position of river god? Who will believe in him?"

Listening to these rebellious words, the head catcher didn't dare to speak.

Ye Buyu said: "Theoretically, yes, but Bai Jun went into retreat ten years ago. ”
