Niu Hao was hearing that he had returned to Qingyang City, and as soon as he arrived at the south gate of the city, he was stopped by the leading official.

"The two masters are back. In the past few days since you left, several people who have been involved in lawsuits have blocked the gate of the yamen, and they have not been able to enter. ”

Niu Hao had the heart to take care of the affairs of Qingyang Mansion, and asked:

"Is it murder and robbery, or is it a roadblock robbery?"

"It's not that serious. ”

The lead official said:

"It's all about buying and selling, neighborhood disputes. ”

Niu Hao patted the leading official and said:

"You can also break this kind of thing. Go to the city and find two respected old people, plus you, and three people can solve the case. ”

The leading official scratched his head and said:

"But we're not court officials. ”

牛昊 says:

"No delays. Justice is in the hearts of the people, as long as you can level a bowl of water and do not forget your righteousness, the people in the city will naturally believe you. ”

The leading official was still not at ease and asked:

"What if there is a big case of murder and robbery?"

Niu Hao snorted and laughed and said:

"There is a big prison in Qingyang Mansion, isn't it for those outlaws. ”

The leading official nodded lightly and said to himself:

"That's right. ”

Niu Hao looked at Zhengwen and the big man and walked towards the city.

After Qingping's recuperation, Yuanda's injuries improved a lot. Seeing Niu Hao and Zhengwen, he bowed and saluted.

The gourd suddenly flew to Zhengwen's side, and before he could speak, Zhengwen waved his hand, and then said to Yuanda:

"Come with me, I have something to ask you. ”

Hulu put a hot face on his cold buttocks, and he muttered that he didn't know what to say.

Yuanda followed behind Niu Hao and Zhengwen and walked into Niu Hao's room.

The gourd also wanted to go in, but was stopped by the big man standing at the door. couldn't help but with a vicious curse, and suddenly flew away.

Walking into the room, Yuanda still wanted to say a few words, and Zhengwen asked directly:

"I have something for you, you have to tell the truth. There is a town in the lower reaches of the Qingjiang River, and wooden cages covered with tarpaulins are regularly delivered. ”

Yuanda looked at Niu Hao and Zhengwen in a daze, not understanding why he asked about it.

Zhengwen asked:

"Isn't it?"

Yuanda nodded and said:

"There's such a thing. ”

Zhengwen asked:

"Do you know what's in the cage?"

Yuanda shook his head and said:

"This matter has always been the responsibility of the head master, and he has never borrowed anyone's hands. I had only seen a wooden cage covered with a tarpaulin outside the monastery once, and I never knew what it contained. ”

Niu Hao asked:

"That wooden cage, wasn't it sent to the Heavenly Crystal Pavilion?"

Yuanda shook his head at Niu Hao and said:

"The wooden cage was sent to the Tianjing Pavilion and parked outside, and after the head master inspected it, it would be sent to another place, and it would never stay in the Tianjing Pavilion. ”

"Somewhere else?"

Zhengwen asked, and Yuanda nodded.

"No matter morning or evening, as long as the wooden cage is delivered, the head master will send it directly to other places. ”

Zhengwen wanted to ask "where to send it", but when the words came to his mouth, he felt that Yuanda might not know, so he stopped there.

Niu Hao asked:

"And you know where it went?"

Yuanda looked at Niu Hao, then at Zhengwen, and said:

"The disciple is coincidental, I know. ”

It stands to reason that Yuanda should not know.

Yuanda also felt that whether it was intentional or not, it was really undesirable for him to find out this secret. So he explained:

"The disciple didn't mean to ......"

Zhengwen didn't listen to Yuanda's explanation at all, and asked:

"Where's that place?"

Yuanda says:

"Out of town. There is a piece of land outside the city, which belongs to the Tianjing Pavilion. The harvested grain is provided to the disciples of the Heavenly Crystal Pavilion. In the middle of that field, there was a land shrine. Every time, the head of the master sends the wooden cage sent there. ”

Zhengwen turned his head to look at Niu Hao, who had already stood up.

Outside the city, in the flat fields, there is a land shrine standing alone, and you don't need someone to lead the way to find it.

In a room inside and outside, behind the offering table facing the door, is the idol of the god of the earth. I searched inside and out, but I didn't find anything.

The clue was broken, and Zhengwen looked at the field in the distance in a daze.

The head of Tianjing Pavilion is only one generation lower than the Bright Moon Immortal Master in the upper court and the Mirror Daoist of Futian Dojo on Kongming Mountain. Zhengguan Zhengsi As disciples of the upper court, when they saw these Taoist masters, they also had to shout out to their senior brothers.

Even so, with the head of the Tianjing Pavilion, he didn't dare to make an assertion and provoke the mountain ghosts and forest demons of Baishang Ridge.

I am afraid that there is only one person who can make this decision.

Zhengwen couldn't believe that it was the will of the immortal master Mingyue.

The disciples of Kong Ming were in Baishangling, causing a disaster of anger and resentment.

Now in Hewan Town, innocent townspeople have been killed in vain.

These things should not be the actions of Taoist disciples in the first place, and they should not be the actions of Kongming disciples!

Niu Hao had long known that this matter was the decision of Daoist Mingyue.

Niu Hao just couldn't think of what the Mingyue Daoist wanted so many mountain ghosts and forest demons from Baishangling to do.

In the woodland outside Hewan Town, the river wind blew away the smoke, revealing the mountain ghosts, many of whom had wounds, and they were old wounds.

The most seriously injured were unable to walk, and had to be carried on a stretcher by their companions.

Those injured mountain ghosts were all injured by the disciples of Kongming Mountain?

Mountain ghosts are ferocious.

In Baishang Ridge, they were originally the helpers of the Baishang Emperor, taking care of the mountains and forests for the Baishang Emperor.

If the disciples of Kongming did not have the exercises in their bodies, it would be impossible for them to defeat those mountain ghosts.

Those mountain ghosts broke out of the cage and slaughtered all the Kongming disciples in the camp, which was enough to explain everything.

So what is the Bright Moon Immortal Master for, to provoke those mountain ghosts?

At the beginning, Yuantong once said that in the world not long after the immortal master Mingyue calculated, there were natural disasters and military disasters, so it was necessary to collect the world's treasures and alchemy medicine to save the common people.

But right now, the common people have not been rescued, and more and more innocent people are dying.

Zhengwen was stunned for a long time, and he didn't come up with any results. Chong Niu Hao says:

"Let's go back. ”

Niu Hao nodded. As soon as I turned around, I suddenly saw crows falling on the eaves of the Land Temple. Dark and shiny with feathers, staring at Niu Hao with a pair of round glasses.

Niu Hao raised his head to look at the crow on the eaves, and when he heard it, he looked at Niu Hao's gaze and asked:

"What's so nice about a crow. ”

Niu Hao looked at the crow and asked Zhengwen:

"I've never seen a crow on Kongming Mountain. ”

Niu Hao was on Kongming Mountain and had never seen this crow. No matter what dangerous situation Niu Hao was in, this patron saint-like crow never appeared again.

正文 says:

"Kongmingshan is solemn, how can a crow be allowed to appear. ”

Niu Hao shook his head.

You don't know where this crow came from.

It's just that why did this crow never fly to the sky of Mingshan?
