White snow, plain clothes, red fire, meaty aroma.

The cold wind danced, paper money filled the sky, and sobs wafted through the streets.

Devil Cry got out of the carriage and jumped down, walking forward with a knife in his hand.

In this world, there is never a shortage of spectators.

Even if the cold wind was biting, even if they were shivering, they walked out of the relatively warm home, gathered together, and watched the excitement.

"What's going on?" the ghost cried and slapped a man on the shoulder.

The man shuddered, turned his head and opened his mouth, and swallowed the swear words into his stomach without saying them.

Ghost Cry is tall, his eyes set off his fierce face, his robe is hunting, his armor is looming, and there is a long knife at his waist, which makes people dare not provoke.

An ugly smile appeared on his face, and he said, "The eldest lord of our county is dead." ”

It was not difficult to hear from his tone that he was a little gloating.

There is a serious estrangement between the people and the officials. The people pay their taxes as if they were paying protection money, just to be free from the harassment of those troublesome imps. The officials and gentlemen collected money, big fish and meat, and traveled in the mountains and rivers.

In this world, the reason why Qing officials are so sought after by people, even if they just say a good word for the people, and they are not so obvious to oppress the people, they can be called the master of the blue sky, and it is not because there are too many corrupt officials.

The county magistrate in this county is obviously not a clean official, and he is not too greedy. It is the kind of mediocre official who takes the money, travels the mountains and rivers, pushes all government affairs to the officials below, and thinks that he is a clear stream.

This is the mainstream, there are countless such officials, pursuing less doing and less wrong, not bad, and when something happens, all extrapolation.

He thinks he is a humble gentleman, but in the eyes of the people, he has no good feelings. It is also the norm to bow humbly in front of your face, call out to the lord, and secretly scold the dog official behind your back.

Ghost crying can be seen, but it can't be managed, and it can't be managed, this is the order of this world, because these clear streams themselves are the hope of the people at the bottom, without them, the world will be more chaotic.

"How did you die?"

"I don't know. The man shook his head and smiled obscenely: "It's just that the person was found dead on the second day, and he hugged his concubine, and the two corpses were cold, eighty percent...... Be****. ”

The ghost wept and asked many people, each with their own account. Some say that this county magistrate was detained by a ghost and his soul was taken away, some say that God took him in, and some say that he was poisoned and killed.

The ghost cried and frowned, such a guy, if he dies, he will die, but now the question is, whether this county magistrate will die naturally or he will kill him, if he kills, the person who did it is a human or a demon.

If it's human, that's fine.

But if it's a demon, it's a big problem.

Officials, whether clean or corrupt, are the face of the human order.

There are many monsters, he has killed countless people, but he doesn't dare to move the official. Not only because of the blessings of the gods of the city god and mountain, but also because once the official is moved, it means that it is a provocation to the human race, and once it is discovered, it will face countless pursuits.

If he kills, if it is the hand of the monsters of other races, it means that they are testing, testing the reaction of the Terrans, and testing whether the Terrans are weak.

The arrival of the north wind has made it impossible to release most of the spells in the world, and even if a small number can be released, they have been affected.

As for the spells, the spells of the human race are the most powerful and numerous. The vast majority of spells are unusable, and the most affected are the Terrans.

"It was a youkai who did it. At some point, Cai Wei came to Devil Cry.

"Why are you so sure?"

"Because, it's happened many times. Cai Wei's eyes were awe-inspiring: "In the three counties, officials have died violently one after another, all of them died in their sleep, and it is still impossible to find out who did it." But it is absolutely certain that this is done by ordinary people. ”

Devil Cry and Cai Wei got back into the carriage, and the big black horse turned around and made a detour.

After crossing two streets, I stopped in front of a compound gate, and there were already people waiting for a long time.

This person has a funny mustache and eyebrows, a sword at his waist, and a green shirt. Compared to those bloated people, it was too cool.

"This is Cao Qingyun of the Demon Slaying Pavilion in this county, Senior Brother Qingyun. Cai Wei said in the ear of Ghost Cry, and then introduced to Cao Qingyun: "This is the famous Ghost Cry brother you have always dreamed of, this is my sister-in-law." ”

Cao Qingyun hurriedly shouted: "I've seen the ghost crying brother, and I've seen the sister-in-law." ”

"Well, I've seen Senior Brother Qingyun. ”

The two sides exchanged pleasantries and entered the door. A servant helped the big black horse unload the burden, and took the big black horse into a warm room, where wine and meat were served.

"How's it going?" asked Caiwei.

Cao Qingyun shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's very bad, last night, the county order died, and now, there is only one master book left in the entire county, the county order, the county commander, and the county lieutenant are all dead, and the remaining master book ......"

Speaking of this, Cao Qingyun shook his head even more: "He was frightened, and he was not far from going crazy." ”

After that, I have already arrived in the hall.

There was tea served by the servant, and Cao Qingyun personally diligently helped make tea, and when the servant walked out, the ghost cried and asked suspiciously, "Where is the elder?"

"Uncle Shi, he ......" Cao Qingyun sighed: "He's dead." ”

"Dead?" Ghost Cry's brows furrowed even tighter, "Did the youkai do it too?"

"Not really. Cao Qingyun put down the teapot and rubbed his temples, his eyes were slightly tired: "Master Chu is dedicated to the Tao, he began to panic last winter, and this year, seeing that winter came earlier than last year, he said that the sky is desperate, so he ...... I was martyred with Senior Brother Pang, and now, I am the only one left in the entire Hongfu County Demon Slaying Pavilion. ”

Presumably, this elder can be considerate of his mastery of channeling, not swordsmanship...... Ass!!

The ghost cried and scolded his mother in his heart, another guy who was destroyed by the north wind, what happened if it went on like this.

However, the ghost cried and saw that although Cao Qingyun was tired and sad, he was not desperate, so he asked, "You learn swords?"

"I also want to learn swords, and I also worship my senior brother to kill the enemy country within ten steps, but ......" Cao Qingyun shook his head: "I don't have this talent, I am naturally slow, I always have to do things slowly, and the same is true for learning swords, fortunately, I have a good understanding and have learned a lot of Taoism, but as soon as the north wind comes, they have all become yellow flowers in the past." ”

Cai Wei interjected: "Senior Brother Qingyun is proficient in divination and spells, which is worse than Senior Uncle Chu and Senior Brother Pang, they at least have some Dao skills that can be used. ”

Ghost Cry just took a sip of tea and almost squirted out, looking at this unlucky Qingyun junior brother in disbelief. With that look, he almost didn't write the words "You didn't kill yourself" on his face.

The two figures on Cao Qingyun's face shrugged downward, and his smile became more and more bitter, almost turning into a bitter gourd essence: "Uncle Shi has been scolding me for being lazy, but I love to enjoy but I don't want to go." It's true, it's okay if you can't use the number of Dao or something, I can live for a few hundred years, I have earned ten times the lifespan, and my body is stronger than ordinary people, not like them, they are not afraid of cold, they are not easy to get sick, no matter how you look at it, they have made a lot of money. Moreover, I am afraid of death. ”

This guy is content with the status quo.
