Wu Xuan also saw the expressions of Sima Zhi and Xu Chuanshan in his eyes, stopped thinking nonsense at the moment, and said to the two of them, "In this case, the left counselor may wish to thoroughly investigate the matter of Niutou Village, and the right counselor may wish to appease those Niutou Village villagers first." ”

Wuxu only thinks about sending these two away now. Wait until tomorrow, look at the situation again, maybe you have hung up your crown, left a letter of resignation, and let them stare at each other.

Wu Xuan said this, but it was in the middle of Sima Zhi and Xu Chuanshan.

Sima Zhi immediately stepped forward, and said, "In this way, I don't have to ask the garrison to assist, and I also ask the city lord to issue a warrant." ”

Wuxu spread out his hands, "The little monk has never seen the city lord sigil until now. ”

Sima Zhi smiled slightly, "The so-called city lord sigil has nothing fixed. Successive city lords have their own sigils. ”

My own sigils, Wu Xu, stunned, didn't the imperial court have an official seal? No, I just looked at those adult scrolls, what Dali Temple or something, they all have exclusive imprints, and they don't belong to a certain person.

Xu Chuanshan, seeing Wuxu's expression, seemed to have guessed something, and then explained, "In the central court, each ministry naturally has the exclusive mark of each ministry, but when it comes to the place, it varies from person to person. For example, if you are now appointed as the lord of the city, then you will perform the exercises and leave a mark on the scroll at every order. When others see this mark, with a little aura infusion, this mark will reveal the face of the city lord and announce this order in person. ”

Wu Xuan was still puzzled, and asked curiously, "Leave a mark, reveal the face of the little monk, and even the relevant news?"

Sima Zhi and Xu Chuanshan, the two looked at each other and smiled. Then, Sima Zhi said again, "Lord City, you might as well take a copy of the case in front of you at will, infuse it with aura, and then read out the new decree concentratingly." ”

Wu Xu did as he said, took an old scroll from the desk, held it with both hands, slowly unfolded it, and then infused it with aura. I saw that the handwriting that had existed before the scroll gradually blurred, and finally disappeared.

"Fengtian carrier... Wu Xuan naughtily recited silently, only to see that these four words actually appeared on the scroll immediately.

Wuxu suddenly stopped, and did not want to continue. This is really white and black, if it is really like this, the city lord's decree is issued, he will disappear tomorrow morning, and he will escape, this pot is also his back, and the karma in this is probably all difficult to put aside.

Sima Zhi and Xu Chuanshan stood there quietly, but they were both staring intently at Wuxu who was holding the scroll.

Finally, Satoru put away the scroll and tossed it aside, "It's not too late to discuss this matter tomorrow." ”

Sima Zhi and Xu Chuanshan, who didn't expect to change their minds when the matter came to an end, looked at each other again, and then asked in unison, "Then what should happen to the villagers of Niutou Village tonight?"

Satoru smiled at them, but didn't answer, and just dodged and ran out.

Sima Zhi and Xu Chuanshan, neither chasing nor chasing, stood there, dumbfounded.

。。。。。。

The night is deep, although there is no curfew in Yongzhou City, but those who should have slept at this moment have already slept, and those who have not slept are either practicing in a quiet room alone, or they are continuing their nightlife in various places. On the street, there were few people to be seen. But at this moment, the north gate is full of people and noisy.

Dozens of ordinary people actually want to break through!

If it had been in the past, they would have been dispersed, or detained, put in a cell, and then slowly cleaned up。。。。。。

The guards of the city with spears in their hands looked at the ordinary people in front of them without saying a word. But they were ordered not to let these people out of the city, nor to beat them, disperse them, and detain them。。。。。。

"Folks! Da Zhou doesn't care about our life or death now, and doesn't treat us as human beings! What are we doing here?! Why don't we go to the Anti-Heaven Alliance!" A middle-aged man raised his arms there and shouted, "If the sky kills me, I will go against the sky!"

"If the sky kills me, I will go against the sky!" dozens of ordinary people who looked like villagers gathered around this middle-aged man and shouted loudly with him.

Fortunately, the North Gate Barrier has been opened. The shouts of these Niutou villagers were all imprisoned and could not be heard more than 100 meters away. Not only the sound, but also their images are imprisoned.

Ordinary monks and laymen only saw a gray barrier at the city gate. This situation is already common, and no one stays, or eventful, and no one comes to watch curiously.

This situation lasted for a while, and then, after Wuxu slipped away in front of Sima Zhi and Xu Chuanshan. An officer appeared on the city tower, frowned at the villagers of Niutou Village in the enchantment below, and said in a deep voice, "Come on, take down these Diao people for me and send them back!"

As soon as the words fell, those soldiers who had long been unable to bear it immediately rushed into the enchantment. These soldiers, naturally, are not ordinary people, they all have some cultivation, and they don't use any ropes and shackles, they just stretch out their hands and vomit secretly. Those in Niutou Village were all like ducks with their necks choked, and they were carried into the air.

These soldiers, led by the officer, flew all the way west, went out through the west gate, and then flew for a while, and when they reached their destination, they stopped, did not land, but let go of their hands. The dozens of villagers of Niutou Village fell to the ground, although there was no blood, but they were also full of meat and vegetables, the pain was unbearable, and they wailed.

When they saw it clearly, they had returned to Niutou Village, and the villagers were in pain and even more frightened. At this moment, the night is deep, and Niutou Village is some distance from Yongzhou City. If you rush overnight, I'm afraid it won't be safe on the way, not to mention that when you get to the city of Yongzhou, the defenders won't let you in, which is another problem.

"Wang Er, what should I do now?" asked a white-haired old man as he turned to a middle-aged man. He seemed to have some prestige, and the rest of the villagers, men, women, and children, all looked at the middle-aged man in the dark.

"Village chief, don't be in a hurry," the one who was called Wang Er replied unhurriedly, as he took out a bead the size of a grain of rice from his bosom, raised it to his mouth, and sighed vigorously.

The bead suddenly became brighter. The light was not only bright, but also warm, so that all the villagers present were no longer panicked or uneasy.

Immediately, someone asked, what kind of treasure is this?

Wang Er, with a mediocre appearance and a cheesy body, is also a mortal person. He carefully held the beads the size of a grain of rice, and took a few more sips before replying, "This is a treasure that I overheard two monks talking when I went into the mountains to chop wood a few days ago, and after they left, I picked up by luck. ”

"The treasures of the monks, which we mortals have rashly obtained, I am afraid that the blessings and disasters will be unpredictable. The white-haired village chief said in a deep voice, "In the past few days, we have encountered strange things in Niutou Village, could it be related to this thing?" Although he has not practiced and is old, his eyes are vicissitudes and wise, and at a glance, he knows that he has seen a lot of the world, and can lead the villagers to seek good fortune and avoid evil.

This Wang Er also respected the village chief very much, and replied busily, "Wang Er dared to swear to the sky, the two monks that day did say that this pearl is called the Separation Pearl, and this pearl, although it is extremely precious to ordinary people such as me, is abundant in a certain place in the Demon Domain, thousands of things. If Niutou Village is caused by this thing, then Wang Er is a sinner. ”

The white-haired village chief sighed and looked around at the surrounding villagers, "I have always lived and worked in peace and contentment in Niutou Village, but I know that many of you are not willing to live such a plain and submissive life. Some time ago, the imperial court reformed and changed the law, and issued many innovative decrees, which made us ordinary people even harsher. However, there were ghosts in the village again, and many people disappeared. That's why I agreed to leave the village together, go to Yongzhou City, and ask the new city lord for justice. Originally, he was counting on the Buddhist monks and being compassionate, but who knew that the new city lord avoided it. Wang Er, you said that there is a place in the Demon Domain, which is rich in these love pearls, it seems that the people of our Niutou Village can be driven by a sigh of breath, and they can use this to go to the Demon Domain to make a better living. ”

Wang Er was so anxious that he had to swear again, but was stopped by the village chief.

"Now it seems that the imperial court does not want me to wait to go to the Demon Domain. The white-haired village chief stood up, glanced at the beads in the king's second-hand hand, then looked up at the night sky, and muttered, "I'd better stay, even if I die, I will die here, better than the lonely ghost wandering outside." Even if my soul is taken away, I would rather stay in Niutou Village. It's you, you can find a way to break through, whether it's good or bad, it's better than waiting here at a young age to be expelled, waiting for such an inferior old death. ”

His words were very emotional, revealing endless desolation. Some villagers unconsciously approached him and chose to stay, whether they lived or died, just like him.

Wang Er nodded silently, as if he didn't know what to say for a while, and after a while, he drove up to the white-haired village chief and said, "This bead will be left in the village as a certificate for the day after tomorrow, and the village chief will be asked to keep it properly." ”

Then, he stood up straight, looked at Yongzhou City from afar, and whispered in a deep voice, "The new city lord of Yongzhou City, Master Wuxu, a Buddhist monk, compassion, and purifying all sentient beings, I want to see if it is or not?"
