Chapter 57 The river god died, and Cangzhou was shaken
"Dad, Gongzi Yue and Miss Xiao ask to see you. Yuan Ye's voice came from outside the study.
The prefect was slightly stunned, come to see him at this time?
got up and opened the door, and saw Yue Feng and Xiao Qing outside, Xiao Qing's robe was even more bloodstained, and the prefect was shocked when he saw this: "Niece Xiao, what's the matter with you?"
"Uncle Yuan. Xiao Qing hurriedly said, "My injury is just a trivial matter, there is a major thing I want to inform Uncle Yuan, just three hours ago, I went with Yue Feng and him to deal with the river god demon, and the river god demon has been eliminated, this is the river god demon's personal magic weapon - the water horn fork!"
Looking at the evil aura emitted by the water horn fork.
The two guards on the side, Yuan Ye Gongzi and the prefect were all stunned, looking at Xiao Qing and Yue Feng in a daze.
"You... You..."
The prefect was stunned for a while before he said, "You said, you and Yue Feng joined forces to kill the river god demon? Is this a water horn fork?"
The fame of the water horn fork is great!
But the prefect has only heard of it, but he has never seen it.
"Your Excellency. Yue Feng also spoke, "The Great Demon of the River God is dead, there is no doubt about this, this is another magic weapon in my hand, Suoyun Chain." With a wave of his hand, the chain on his wrist quickly flew out in circles, flying longer and longer, and whistling around for dozens of feet, making the throats of the guards, Yuan Ye Gongzi, and the prefect all feel dry.
Xiao Qing said: "Uncle Yuan, when I sent a letter to you, saying that I wanted to come to the mountains and forests, in fact, the original purpose of my coming to the mountains and forests was because I took over the task of the master and came here to get rid of this river god demon, Yue Feng also cooperated with me, and finally succeeded in killing the river god demon with the treasures given by my Shenxiao faction. ”
The prefect was very excited: "It turned out to be a plan made by the Shenxiao faction. ”
Saying that, he squatted down and stroked the water horn fork, he was still knowledgeable, and the evil aura and charm emitted by the water horn fork made him understand that this was definitely not an ordinary magic weapon, and he said silently in his heart: "It's really a powerful magic weapon, good, good, good to kill!"
"I've seen a dossier with a water horn fork, it's exactly the same, and it's such a powerful magic weapon, it's definitely not fake. Yuan Ye Gongzi also said slowly.
"Such a big thing, how could Xiao Qing and Yue Feng lie?" the prefect was even more excited, and his whole body blood boiled.
More than 200 years!
The entire mountains and forests, and even the entire Cangzhou, have been shrouded in the ferocity of the river god demon for more than two hundred years.
The government tried its best to kill it, and the river god demon was too cautious.
Cultivators who cultivate the qi realm outside, the river gods and demons are cautious to flee from the river at any time, how to kill them?
Send an army to attack the demon and get rid of its minions?
But the river god demon has the blood of the ancient water snake, which can set off a monstrous flood, and the army is helpless.
"Finally killed, killed. The prefect looked up at the sky and laughed, "The sky has eyes, the sky has eyes." ”
"The river god is dead, the river god is dead?" The two guards on the side also trembled with excitement, they are all natives of the mountains and forests, and they grew up listening to the legend of the river god and the big demon.
The prefect immediately ordered: "Yuan Ye, beat the drum for me, and the whole army will assemble." ”
"Yes. Yuan Ye was excited and hurriedly responded.
Boom!
The low drum beat was very hurried, and the big drum of the Yuan Mansion sounded, and soon the drums around were heard.
The sound of drums resounded throughout the city!
The whole city is under martial law! The government is assembled! The army is assembled!
Yuefu.
His father, Yue Xiaolin, who had fallen asleep, was awakened by the sound of drums.
And there were even more people outside the house shouting: "Master, master." ”
"What's wrong?" the mother quickly got up and said, "What's going on?
"It's going to be a big deal. Yue Xiaolin didn't dare to hesitate, put on his clothes and quickly went out, dressed while running, and the people immediately prepared their horses, and immediately rode towards the Yuan Mansion.
This moment.
When all the officials heard the sound of drums, they immediately rushed to the Yuan Mansion! The soldiers of the army were also gathered! Everyone rushed to the Yuan Mansion almost as fast as they could.
"What's going on?"
"What's wrong with this?"
"Youkai are causing trouble in the city?"
At night, most of the people in the mountains and forests start to rest at home, and a few are still enjoying themselves in restaurants, gambling houses, and fireworks.
I could hear the rapid drumming that resounded throughout the city, and I was startled.
Those on the road hurried home, and those in gambling houses and other places did not dare to go out.
Everyone knows that something big is wrong!
In the Yuan Mansion, the prefect hurriedly entered the study, took out a golden scroll from a box, and took out a brush.
When the golden scroll is unfolded, the brush is simply dipped in water and written directly.
On the scroll, words appeared.
The disciple of the Shenxiao faction 'Xiao Qing' took over the task sent by Shenxiao to the mountains and forests to get rid of the river god and the big demon! casually also talked about Yue Feng's cooperation with Xiao Qing.
After all the words were written, the prefect took out the seal from his bosom and stamped it on it.
"Hum. ”
On the scroll, all the words glowed golden.
Then the handwriting disappeared.
"I have already submitted it to the court, and then I will wait for the order of the court. The prefect whispered to himself.
After waiting for a full cup of tea, the text appeared on the scroll - "Take control of the whole state and destroy the demons!" The imperial court will send someone to come to Cangzhou before dawn to preside over the overall situation. ”
"Good. The prefect was overjoyed.
In dealing with the demon clan, the court has always been neat and tidy.
Especially after the death of the river god this time, the imperial court will also take the opportunity to regain control outside the city, naturally quickly!
Immediately put away the scroll and put it back in the box, and walked out of the house, most of the officials had already gathered outside the house, these officials were originally a little commotion and talked to each other, obviously they didn't know why they were assembled, and when the prefect came out of the study, they all quieted down.
Yue Feng and Xiao Qing also stood aside and watched, and Xiao Qing also went back to her residence to simply change into a clean robe.
"Ladies and gentlemen. The prefect said solemnly, "Just today, a cultivator has killed the river god demon!"
"What?"
"The river god is dead?"
There was an uproar, and some parts such as Yuefu and the River God Demon had a blood feud, and they were even more shocked.
"I have told the imperial court, and the imperial court has an order to quickly control the whole state and destroy the demons. The prefect shouted, and when the officials heard the court, they didn't dare to say anything.
"Listen to orders!" the prefect shouted solemnly.
All of them are respectful and solemn.
With the prefect's orders one by one.
Immediately, the men and horses were mobilized, and one by one the men and horses went out of the city overnight and went to various places.
There are even flying eagles that take off into the sky and fly to all sides.
There are nearly 20 county towns in Cangzhou, covering a vast area, with many villages, and many officers and soldiers guarding the key areas.
A flying eagle landed in a courtyard, and the officers and soldiers led by it received a letter of order.
"What?"
The officer and soldier were very excited when they saw it, swallowed their throats, and hurriedly ordered the surrounding subordinates: "Quickly spread the word to all villages that the river god demon has been killed by the cultivators, and from now on, millions of people in Cangzhou will no longer have to suffer from the scourge of the river god demon." ”
"What, sir, really?"
"The Great Demon of the River God is dead?"
His soldiers still couldn't believe it.
"There are all flying eagles on it, and the three major ones are printed on it, and there are still fakes?" the officers and soldiers hurriedly shouted, "I will stay here, and the others will quickly go to the villages to spread the word." ”
"Yes. ”
"Yes, let's go. ”
"The river god is dead, haha, the river god is dead. ”
The soldiers were so excited that the captain and the lieutenant were on horseback, and the other soldiers were trotting.
Eight teams of men rushed to each village to deliver the message.
Officers and soldiers and petty officials in Cangzhou all received messages from the flying eagle, some officers and soldiers were in disbelief, and some even looked up to the sky and laughed, and one by one they quickly gave orders, and one by one they rushed to the villages under their jurisdiction.
Before noon the next day, the news spread to every village in Cangzhou.
