The windows of the main hall were closed and thick curtains were drawn, and even in the daytime, oil lamps were needed to dispel the darkness.

In the center of the gloomy hall, a bronze coffin with a cold luster is quietly placed.

When Jiang Yuan came to the bronze coffin, he saw that the rusty coffin was carved with complicated patterns, most of which were covered by rust, and it was not real. And in some of the clearer places, you can see some text.

But those words made Jiang Yuan incomprehensible, and he vaguely deduced that this should be a very ancient text based on his memories of reading it hard.

Fei Qingquan came to Jiang Yuan's side and said:

"The Five Ghost Dao wants to come to Yangcheng for this thing. ”

Jiang Yuan asked:

"What's in there, dead people, demons, don't you open it?"

Fei Qingquan shook his head:

"You can't guess, you can't move lightly. ”

"Is it so dangerous?" Jiang Yuan frowned and looked at the bronze coffin carefully.

This bronze coffin didn't look very strong, and Jiang Yuan could slap it away. But what's inside......

Jiang Yuan suddenly felt a breath, it was a breath very similar to the power of inheritance, the degree of condensation and purity, comparable to Lu Junsheng's moon-shaped jade.

At the same time as that breath, there was also a ...... Gaze......

Jiang Yuan was taken aback and couldn't help but take a step back.

When I felt it carefully, my breath and eyes were all gone, and I didn't know if it was an illusion.

Fei Qingquan noticed Jiang Yuan's abnormality and asked:

"Do you feel it too? Wake up...... If I'm not mistaken......"

Jiang Yuan asked coldly:

"Since this thing is unknown, why do you want to stay in Yang City?"

Fei Qingquan smiled bitterly:

"At first, I didn't think much about it and reported it to my superiors, but I was ordered to keep it behind to protect it. As I learned more and more, I realized that the disaster in Yangcheng today is all due to my carelessness......"

Jiang Yuan asked:

"Is there a turnaround?"

Fei Qingquan nodded:

"The biggest turning point is waiting for someone from above to transport it away. But the Five Ghost Dao is obviously one step ahead, and I don't want to just sit and wait, so tomorrow, no matter what, I will meet with Shangdong Chongjun and ask him for help, I can't care so much......"

Jiang Yuan asked:

"At great cost?"

Fei Qingquan sighed and said:

"I have prepared five hundred death row prisoners as a gift to meet Dong Chongjun. ”

Jiang Yuan didn't expect to use a living person as a meeting gift, could it be ...... This is what Lu Junsheng called human sacrifice?

Is a living person, in the eyes of a princely family, like a gift of money, or is it like a captive livestock?

He asked:

"There are so many prisoners in our Yangcheng prison?"

菲清泉 says:

"There were only fifty prisoners in the prison...... For the rest, the gang members of the Great River Gang and their families are good choices. Thanks to you, Jiang Yuan, you killed their leader first, and we saved a lot of trouble by arresting people. ”

Jiang Yuan's heart slowly sank, for the Dahe Gang, he never thought of eradicating all of its gangs.

Unexpectedly, Fei Qingquan had already started to act, and he arrested more than 400 people in one day. Who can say how many of them are the most heinous gangsters, and how many are innocent people.

Jiang Yuan sighed secretly and said goodbye to Fei Qingquan:

"Lord Guardian, I'll retire first. I'll go back and prepare for the prisoner's escort. ”

Fei Qingquan nodded:

"There is Lao Jiang to catch the head. ”

Jiang Yuan left the government office and returned to the county office.

The county government is organizing a funeral for Zhou Cunjian's death.

The officials were very uneasy, and even Zhou Cunjian was killed by demons and ghosts, how could they, the little officials, protect themselves?

Two officers of the garrison were waiting in the barracks.

The head of the barracks is to recruit soldiers, horses, and train Ding Zhuang throughout the county. In addition, matters such as post stations, soldiers, city defense, and bandit suppression are also under the jurisdiction of the military room.

In the past, the affairs of the military room were handled by Zhou Cunjian, but now Jiang Yuan is temporarily taking the position of county lieutenant, so he needs to start worrying.

After getting acquainted with the relevant affairs with the two officers, Jiang Yuan ordered everything to go on as usual and follow Zhou Cunjian's old order.

The slight change is that the troops will be assigned to escort the prisoners tomorrow.

When everything was done, it was starting to get dark. Jiang Yuan had a casual meal outside and began to return home.

On the way home, the streets were still bustling with people, and the fall of the Great River Gang did not seem to have affected their lives.

Looking at these people who didn't know anything about the calamity facing Yangcheng, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but think of Lu Junsheng's words.

"Could it be that in three days, Yangcheng is really going to face a crisis? Lu Junsheng, how do you know?"

Lu Junsheng had too many secrets on his body, and he not only dared to conclude that Yangcheng was going to be destroyed. Even last night, he clearly knew that Xiaolong's father was among the demons and did not die. All this is like an unpredictable prophet.

Jiang Yuan thought all the way, and came to the door of the house in a blink of an eye.

When I entered the spacious courtyard, I heard a faint cry.

followed the crying to the small courtyard, but it was Xiaolian who was lying on the stone table and sobbing quietly.

Jiang Yuan frowned and asked:

"Who are you Di Xudong?"

Yu Xiaolian is the maidservant arranged by Di Xudong, if the two have nothing to do with each other, Jiang Yuan doesn't believe it.

Xiaolian raised her head when she heard this, her eyes were already red and swollen from crying:

"Back to the adult's words, the slave maid's family is poor, and the father is seriously ill again, so the slave maid sold herself into the Qinglou in exchange for her father's treatment money. Fortunately, Di helped the master pay to buy the slave and maid, and let the slave and maid serve the adults here, and ...... Pay attention to the things of adults......"

Sure enough, he came to spy on himself, and a wave of disgust rose in Jiang Yuan's heart, and he said in a cold voice:

"I won't embarrass you, get out of here. It's just that don't let me see you in Yangcheng in the future. ”

Xiaolian stood up and bowed deeply:

"Thank you, for your kindness!"

Jiang Yuan didn't care about her anymore, he returned to the study and took out a plant like a purple crystal from his arms.

This is the amethyst orchid he got from Lu Junsheng, and Jiang Yuan is also looking forward to its effect.

Amethyst orchid can be used for alchemy or taken directly.

Jiang Yuan was not familiar with the art of alchemy, so he simply stuffed the amethyst orchid into his mouth.

As the amethyst orchid entered the abdomen, a warmth rose from the dantian and soon spread all over the body.

"It worked!"

Jiang Yuan only felt that the muscles and veins in his body were smooth, and the strength was accumulating in the muscles, and even the internal force in his body had increased a lot.

He closed his eyes and began to digest the medicinal effects of the amethyst orchid little by little.

Time passed, and soon it was night.

Jiang Yuan opened his eyes and said happily:

"The effect on internal force is so obvious! The internal strength and mental methods of "Crazy Knife Technique", "Poisonous Dragon Palm", and "Bronze Armor Gong" have all been completed! The body is also stronger and tougher than before, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is copper skin and iron bones now. ”

When he killed Di Xudong of the Four Extremes Realm, Jiang Yuan already knew that he was at least a martial artist of the Kaiyuan Realm without using flames.

If you use flames, you can change from a warrior to a Mu realm that can kill demons. If he entered the form of flame, Jiang Yuan guessed that he could reach the strength of the three ques in the Mu realm.

He drew his freshly picked saber from his arsenal and stabbed the tip of his sword into his own eye.

The tip of the knife collided with the pupil, but there was a crisp metal crashing sound, and the pupil was not damaged at all.

Even his eyes were so hard, Jiang Yuan really couldn't imagine how Fan Tie could hurt himself.

As for weapons like Lu Junsheng's moon-shaped jade, it is still up for debate.

He sensed the changes in his body for a while, and then he was a little disappointed:

"It's a pity that it doesn't have any effect on the form of fire. It seems that to make the form of Yan more mature, only ghost qi can do. ”

Jiang Yuan didn't know how many powerful people and demons there were in this world, but he knew that he still needed more strength to protect himself.

Now he has only just gotten a glimpse of the door, but there are already top demons who are about to come to Yang City.

In the face of such a situation, it is inevitable that people will be depressed:

"It's still not strong enough...... I have to work hard, even harder to get the ghost energy! Whoever dares to stop me from getting stronger will be killed!"

In the dark room, Jiang Yuan's eyes were full of ferocity.

..........................................................................

Early the next morning, Jiang Yuan came to the Xuanhe ferry as agreed.

A large group of people were already waiting at the ferry, including prisoners who were tied up in strings, soldiers guarding the prisoners, and county commanders Cai Xing and Xia Mingxuan, who came to see them off.

A number of boats have been requisitioned at the ferry, and boatmen have long been ready.

Jiang Yuan stepped forward and saluted with everyone.

At the end, Xia Mingxuan said to Jiang Yuan:

"The star watcher wants to guard that thing in the hall, and he won't leave until the sun doesn't come out. ”

Jiang Yuan nodded and said to the officer:

"Let's transport the prisoner across the river first. ”

Yang County and Ye County, just one river apart, opposite the wide Xuan River, is the ferry of Ye County.

Looking from afar, it is obvious that the Ye County Government is also prepared, and many people gather at the ferry to wait.

Groups of prisoners were driven away by the soldiers and began to move towards the ferry, and a cry spread along the riverside.

Many people watched and discussed from a distance, but they were constantly dispersed by the outskirts of the city to prevent accidents.

Jiang Yuan noticed that among the prisoners, there were many women, children, old and young, and he couldn't help asking:

"Are those people also from the Big River Gang?"

The county magistrate Cai Xing explained:

"They are the family members of the gang, and the men in the family are also responsible for their crimes. The gang of the Great River Gang did not have enough 500 people after they were arrested, so they had to be arrested to make up the numbers. ”

Jiang Yuan nodded and stopped talking.

Tens of thousands of people in Yangcheng are facing a crisis, and Fei Qingquan uses 500 people to ask for help, although it is cruel, but it can also understand the helplessness.

One by one, the ferries were loaded with prisoners and headed for the opposite shore.

The sun showed a corner of the mountain, and the Fiqing Spring finally appeared.

After a brief conversation with the group, Jiang Yuan and Fei Qingquan got on a gorgeous boat.

The boat seemed to be a requisitioned boat, and the owner had arranged for a few beautiful women to entertain the crowd.

However, no one was interested, this trip was very important, but it was not for fun.

The ship came to the other side smoothly, and after getting off the dock, it was received by the officials of Ye County.

Fei Qingquan and Jiang Yuan did not wait for the prisoners, the prisoners only needed to be slowly escorted by the soldiers.

They took a few retinues and got into the carriage prepared by Yexian County, and then went all the way to Yecheng.
